Yelu Longxu also looked at him Liu Li also smiled, knowing that he would definitely agree to his request, if he didn't agree, he wouldn't mind killing, and besides, it wasn't the first time he had killed someone, as an emperor, which emperor had a clean hand, Yelu Longxu didn't say anything else, as the emperor of Da Liao, it was inevitable that he would kill decisively. As for the infamy of later generations, it is just a lie on the lips of the world. Moreover, who can control so much because the Lord will be under his weight?

At this moment, Liu Li also understands that there is only one opportunity, how could he miss such an opportunity? At this moment, he instantly knelt down in front of Yelu Longxu, and said excitedly: "Wechen doesn't know if he can complete the task, but the emperor took in the ministers when Wechen destroyed the country, and the emperor can hand over such a thing to Wechen, Wechen swore that he would try his best to complete it, and live up to the emperor's trust in Wechen, but the minister is afraid that only Wechen is alone, and it is difficult to complete the emperor's task, do you think you can send more to help Wechen?" ”

Yelulong continued to pat him and said with a smile: "Don't worry! This time I planted in the Western Xia in Daliao will definitely protect you, I have a great help for you this time, I estimate that most of you were complaining about me before, why do you abandon you, this time I can tell you that because you are a former minister of the Northern Han Dynasty, not only the first emperor is not at ease, but I Yelu Longxu is also not at ease, but the most important thing as a monarch is to appreciate the courtiers, especially people like Liu Aiqing, if you don't use you, it's also my loss, Just like Mu Yuzhen was originally a little worried about him, but later I also used it, the monarch does not need his subordinates, which is the biggest loss as a subordinate, so this time I thought of you, and this time is also the time for you to prove your loyalty, I have great confidence in you, and I hope you will live up to my trust. ”

Liu Li was also excited and said to Yelulong: "The emperor is so good to the ministers, and the ministers will definitely do their best, but the emperor thinks when we should leave this time?" Emperor. ”

Yelu Long continued to think in his heart that at this time, of course, the sooner he set off, the better, this time it is obvious that Li Jiqian still has a pair of black hands behind him, is it Zhang Pu, this Zhang Pu is a very powerful strategist, Song Taiping rejuvenated the country for seven years (982), the leader of the Dangxiang clan and the Dingyan army left behind Li Jitou to enter the court, stay in Beijing, and dedicate the land of five states. Zhang Pu offered advice to succeed his brother Li Jiqian, and led his cronies to escape from Jinze in Xiazhou (now southwest of Yijin Huoluo Banner in Inner Mongolia), united with the party Xiang Hao clan, gathered more than 10,000 people, and resisted the Song Dynasty and became independent. Congjiqian led the army to attack the Song border many times.

In December 983 (the eighth year of the Taiping Rejuvenation of the Northern Song Dynasty and the first year of Liao Tonghe), officials from Song Taizong's Zhaosui, Yin, Xia and other prefectures recruited peasants who had fled beyond the border to return to their homes to continue farming. Li Jiqian saw that his subordinates had the intention of returning to the Song Dynasty, and said to his adviser Zhang Pu: "Our sect has not been repaired for a long time, and the people have not been hungry in this barren land.

Now the Song Dynasty has appeased the displaced people outside the country with its abundant financial resources and abundant products, so that we will be separated from each other, and it will not be able to support it in the future. Zhang Pu said to Li Jiqian: "The Song army has a lot of troops stationed in Yin and Xia, and it is difficult for us to compete with them. However, the land of Youzhou is very rich, and it relies on the Hengshan Mountains as the boundary, if you use this to lure the tribes and try to curb the development of the dangerous city to see the development of the situation, it is also a great plan to rejuvenate. Li Jiqian thought so, so he entangled the Xirong troops to try to attack, and combined 20,000 troops to attack Youzhou. The Song patrol made Li Xun lead the soldiers and horses of the Han Dynasty to repel Li Jiqian.

In 984 (the first year of Yongxi of the Northern Song Dynasty and the second year of Liaotong), Li Jiqian was unable to win the attack on Youzhou, so he still garrisoned Jinze. In May, Li Jiqian ordered his brother Li Jichong to incite and lure the Hexi Zhufan tribe. The leader of the party Xiang Bawei tribe, the demon patient Yaya, has always been in chaos with the Nanshan tribes, and was recruited by Li Jichong to surrender, and led his troops to surrender, and Li Jiqian sent Zhang Pu to accept it. [2]

In September 984 (the first year of Yongxi of the Northern Song Dynasty and the second year of the Liao Dynasty) (the eighth year of the Taiping Rejuvenation of the Northern Song Dynasty in the History of the Song Dynasty, that is, in 983), Yin Xian, the governor of Xiazhou in the Song Dynasty, and Cao Guangshi, the governor of the capital, reconnoitred and learned that Li Jiqian, Zhang Pu and others were camping, and they attacked at night, and Li Jiqian suffered a great setback. The Song army beheaded 500 people and burned more than 400 accounts of the party army. Li Jiqian and his brother took advantage of the chaos to escape, and Cao Guangshi of the Song army captured Li Jiqian's mother and wife. After Li Jiqian, he sought the daughter of the party's wealthy clan as his wife, and went to various places to become stronger, and the big clans in Hexi went to join them because of the good deeds of the Li family in the local area.

In the second year of Yongxi (985), he made a plan with Li Jiqian, went to Yinzhou in person, pretended to inspect Cao Guangshi and surrendered to the Song capital, and ambushed the soldiers in Jialuchuan (now northwest of Jia County, Shaanxi), booby-trapped Cao Guangshi, etc., faked his banner, attacked Yinzhou, and was awarded the left capital of the Ya. For three years, the envoy was attached to the Khitan. In the first year of Dao (995), the envoy Song was detained. Three years later, after Li Ji moved back to the Song Dynasty, he was able to return it. In the first year of Jingde (1004), Li Deming took the throne, Zhang Pu also marched to Sima, and plotted to take Liangzhou (now Wuwei, Gansu) in the west. In the first year of Dazhong Xiangfu (1008), he led thousands of cavalry to attack the Uighurs in Ganzhou, but was defeated and returned. In the following year, he led 20,000 horsemen to re-attack Ganzhou (now Zhangye), and was defeated again. Died of illness in seven years.

Although Zhang Pu's historical reputation is not obvious, but seeing what he has done recently also makes him yelu longxu jealous, the biggest opponents in Western Xia are only two people Li Jiqian and Zhang Pu, these two people must not be careless, otherwise only he may suffer the loss.

Yelu Longxu also smiled and said to Liu Li: "Liu Aiqing I want you to go to Xingqing Mansion, by the way, learn about Western Xia, Western Xia is all cliffs, we want to dominate the world, the first thing is to understand Western Xia, now the time from our departure is quite important, the land of Western Xia is not so easy to take as an example, if you want to take revenge, the first thing is to block the road of Western Xia's quest for fate, and block the relationship with the Great Song Dynasty, this time your importance is quite good, Secondly, the departure time in my opinion, the sooner the departure, the better, the Central Plains has an ancient saying called knowing oneself and knowing the other, a hundred battles are invincible, now we have a certain understanding of the Western Xia, in their opinion we must go to the time must be very slow, but in my opinion, we can go in advance, so we have to set off as soon as possible to achieve unexpected surprises, as for other things, wait until you go to show that Cheng I am very confident in you, I hope you live up to my trust. Aiqing, you have to take care! Go ahead! ”。

At this moment, he himself could only bow his hand to Yelulong and continued, the minister obeyed the order, the minister retired, long live my emperor, long live, long live! Jerry laughed and patted him! Don't go back this time! I have thought about it for you, the people I arranged for you are waiting for you to come, you must complete my task to understand the talents of Western Xia, which will help us dominate the world, if you want to find revenge in the Great Song Dynasty, you can also use this meeting to have fun with each other, you are a talent personally selected by my father, the first emperor has a lot of confidence in you, and I also have a lot of confidence in you, go with peace of mind!

As soon as the words ended, Liu Li secretly thought in his heart that your scheming is really scary, at this moment, he deeply felt how serious the emperor's mental technique was, and now he has already left? Yelu Longxu watched him leave, and thought of the art of manipulating people, it was really fun, I can only control their thoughts for my subordinates now, so that they can really be used by me, this is the terrible scheming that hides Yelu Longxu's heart!
