Chapter 463: Robbery While the Fire is Burning (I)
Late at night, Xingqing Mansion, in the imperial study of the summer palace.
Li Liangzuo asked Xiao Zhuozi, "That's all." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty; The spies of Yipintang have passed back these for the time being, this matter was proposed by His Royal Highness the King of Guangyang, after obtaining the consent of His Royal Highness the King of Changshan, and His Royal Highness the King of Hengshan in succession, now the three princes have discussed properly, and each of the three families sent a thousand soldiers and horses to pretend to be the Liao army in Raoyang. Xiao Zhuozi reported to Li Liangzuo.
"These three little rabbit cubs are too bold, they want to fish in troubled waters, and they have to hide it from me."
"Your Majesty, do you want the minions to find a way to stop the three princes."
"No need, let them toss if they love toss! There's no big mess going on; By the way, what is the situation of the other princes? ”
"According to the report of the spies, His Royal Highness the King of Qin, His Royal Highness the King of Jin and His Royal Highness the King of Yong, the three princes all perform their own duties, and there is no special situation."
"Where are the ministers of the court!"
"There are no other special cases."
"Send someone to keep an eye on them, and I want to know what each of them is going on at every moment."
"Yes, the minion understands."
"Is there any movement in the Great Song Dynasty?"
"According to the report of the spies, now the rights of Emperor Zhao of the Song Dynasty are basically hollowed out, and only Liu Changzuo, Seed Master Dao, Zhang Dunli and other ministers support them, but these people have been ordered by the Song Emperor to go to the north to prepare to resist Liao, and the Song Emperor is still looking for Wang Anshi's whereabouts with great fanfare."
"Wang Anshi?" Li Liangzuo frowned and said; "This man has great talents! If I can serve my Great Xia Empire, it will take me more than ten years less to unify the Central Plains. ”
"Your Majesty, you have forgotten that it was time for him to be beaten by us and flee."
Li Liangzuo said with a smile: "Wang Anshi is a Wenchen, and it is naturally not good to lead troops to fight; However, when it comes to governing the country, I am afraid that there is no one in the whole world who can compare with it, and this employment must be used in the right place. ”
"The minion understands, and the minion continues to search for this person's whereabouts."
"Remember, such a person must be killed by me if he is not used by me." A cold light flashed in Li Liangzuo's eyes and said.
"Yes, the minion understands."
Now the power of Yipintang is very large, and they directly serve the emperor; On the surface, the people in Yipintang are intelligence officers who spy on military intelligence, but at the same time, there are also a large number of secret agents who are placed in the royal family, officials and some big families, and they are monitoring their every move every moment, not to mention corruption and bribery, that is, when they usually pee,, and the affairs of men and women are clearly recorded, and the entire Great Xia Empire is basically transparent in front of Li Liangzuo.
Of course, some things about accepting bribes and perverting the law for bribes naturally can't escape Li Liangzuo's eyes, but as long as the plot is not particularly serious, Li Liangzuo also turns a blind eye, after all, the world is as black as a crow, and no one who has been an official has been clean under his ass since ancient times, and there are very few real clean officials, and there are no people with a little fetish, Li Liangzuo does not dare to use it, after all, such people are not easy to control.
Besides, Yelu Hongji succeeded in borrowing the way, and immediately began to order troops to prepare for the Song Dynasty, this time it is impossible for Yelu Hongji to conquer the Song Dynasty, after all, there is a Great Xia Empire in the middle, and now the biggest problem in front of Yelu Hongji is also the problem of the successor, Yelu Hongji has a son and three daughters, it stands to reason that the only son is naturally the prince, but it is a pity that this kid does not have this life, and the emperor's father who can't survive has been hung up, but fortunately, he left a son before his death, This person was Yelu Yanxi, the grandson of Yelu Hongji, who was already eleven years old at this time.
In the Liao Palace of Dading Mansion.
Today's Yelu Hongji is fifty-four years old, due to many years of barren and lewd life than ordinary people look older than the average person has a lot of gray hair, after returning from the summer, Yelu Hongji basically spends every day in your harem, after all, for Yelu Hongji, the day when he can be the emperor is one day less than one day, and the continuous defeat of the Xia campaign and the loss of the teacher and the humiliation of the country have destroyed the only little confidence Yelu Hongji has.
"Grandson, see Grandpa Huang." A little boy came in and saluted Jeluhonki; This person was none other than Yelu Yanxi, the grandson of Yelu Hongji.
Seeing that Yelu Yanxi had come, Yelu Hongji said to the concubines and palace maids: "You all go down!" ”
After everyone left, Yelu Hongji said, "Xi'er come, go to the emperor's grandfather to do it." ”
"Grandpa Huang......" Yelu Yanxi said as he sat down beside Yelu Hongji; I don't know what the emperor's grandfather is talking about when he looks for his grandson? ”
"I have already sent someone to discuss with the King of Guangyang, and our Liao army will attack the Song Dynasty through the Xia Realm."
"King Guangyang, isn't that the son of the third aunt, my cousin?"
"Exactly." Yelu Hongji said; "Xi'er, I will issue a decree tomorrow to crown you as the king of the Southern Courtyard, and the general of the Song Dynasty will lead my Liao army to conquer the Song Dynasty, so as to accumulate military merits and inherit my throne."
"But Grandpa Huang, my grandson is still young, I'm afraid he can't command the army!"
"It's fine, you just have to put a name on it; My life is over, and this Great Liao Kingdom will depend on you in the future. ”
"Grandson understands, grandson must take back everything I have lost in Da Liao."
"Well, it deserves to be my grandson of Yelu Hongji."
In the early morning of the next day, Yelu Hongji announced that Yelu Yanxi was canonized as the king of the Southern Courtyard and the general of the Song Dynasty, and at the same time canonized Yelu Renxian, the king of Ruyang, as the deputy general, and Yelu Yixin, the king of the Northern Courtyard, as the marching Sima, and his army of 150,000 attacked the Great Song Dynasty; The Liao army swore an oath in Dadingfu, but there were only a few soldiers and horses, and the main force of the Song army had been assembled in Luanzhou to standby, and Yelu Yanxi embarked on the first journey of his life after worshipping the heavens and ancestors.
Late at night, in a secret manor outside Xijin Mansion, the 1,000 soldiers and horses of the Guangyang Palace's Mansion have been prepared, this is a cavalry unit, and the equipment is on par with the Imperial Forest Army of the Great Xia Empire, among the brothers Yongwang, Changshan King, and Hengshan King, it is now estimated that only Li Qing's army is the best, and half of the other three people's palace guards of more than 1,000 people can be cavalry, which is quite good; The reason why Li Qing was able to have such a good cavalry unit was entirely because he had a grandfather who was the emperor, and these things were basically drawn from the Liao State.
Li Qing was wearing the armor of a Liao general, dressed as a Liao person, and said to the more than 1,000 cavalrymen: "Remember that from today on, you are the Liao army, if any of you are killed in battle, or unfortunately captured by the Song army, your family will be taken care of by the king, and all the soldiers who died in this operation will be given double pensions, and all the wealth obtained this time, this king will give three components to everyone, and the amount of property each person will receive depends entirely on how much he has made on the battlefield, do you understand?" ”
"Understand ......"
"Expedition ......"
With Li Qing's order, a thousand cavalry drove out of the manor and disappeared into the vast night, at the same time, the guards of Changshan Wangfu and Hengshan Wangfu also began to secretly move towards the Raoyang area, while the Liao army has been moving south along the coastline in Cangzhou in the Xia realm, passing straight to Yongjing Junzhen, an important northern frontier town in the Great Song Dynasty.
The second is more presented, ask for recommendations, please everyone......
