Chapter Seventy-Two: The Princess Yiyi
The more incompetent people are, the more they tend to blame others for their problems, and Song Huizong is undoubtedly such a person.
When the news of Taiyuan was sent to Beijing in an expedited manner of 800 miles, Liang Shicheng and others immediately sent it to Emperor Huizong as soon as possible.
He demoted Zhao Yu's unconscious son to a commoner on his front foot, and the bastard of Emperor Tianzuo on his back foot gave that kid the title of King of Song, who is disgusting? Uncle can bear it, and aunt can't bear it!
"Come on, send Zong Zhengqing to me, I want to clear that rebel son out of the family tree"
Liang Shicheng saw that Emperor Huizong's face was about to be angry into eggplant skin, and he hurriedly bowed down and said: "Your Majesty is angry, Yi and Zhao Yu are indeed unforgivable, but the wolf ambition of the Khitan people can also be seen, according to the latest news, the northern part of the Liao Kingdom has basically been lost, and the old slave's idea is that we should also make a move, otherwise when the Jurchen destroys the Liao State, it will be more twists and turns if the land of Yanyun wants to be recovered."
Hearing Liang Shicheng say this, Huizong finally calmed down and recovered the land of Yanyun, which has always been the ultimate dream of the emperors of the Great Song Dynasty, but whether it is Taizu or Taizong, every time they send troops, they all fail miserably, can they do this by themselves?
Liang Shicheng can be said to have understood Huizong's temperament, he doesn't have much ability, but he prefers great joy, and his ears are still soft, and he can't help but flicker.
This is the best opportunity to help the prince get the military power, and in private Tong Guan has promised that as long as he is allowed to lead the troops to Yanyun, it will definitely be decided in a battle, and Tong Guan also hinted that he will defect to the prince, so this matter must be promoted by Tong Guan.
It can be said that Zhao Yu's incident is giving Liang Shicheng and others an excuse to persuade Huizong.
"Your Majesty, do you remember Zhao Liangsi?"
In his early years, Zhao Liangsi had promoted the maritime alliance between the Great Song Dynasty and the Jurchens, but Song Huizong's character of being afraid of wolves and tigers was destined to be a meaningless alliance.
"Where is this person?"
"Back to Your Majesty, this person has just returned from the Jurchens, according to him, the Jurchens will launch a large-scale raid on the Liao State before the winter, and strive to take Shangjing before the spring of next year"
"It's all in Beijing?"
Hearing this, Huizong finally became excited, if the Jurchens had already hit Shangjing, the capital of Liao, then the rest of Liaoguo must be empty, and if the Great Song sent troops at this time, the Liao army would definitely not be able to rush to the rescue.
"Spread my will, and immediately call the ministers to discuss it"
Sending troops is a big deal, why do you have to listen to the opinions of the ministers...
Jiuzhai in the world, Yanmen is the most, according to legend, the wild goose must pass through here to get the name from north to south.
Out of the Yanmen Pass, it is also out of the jurisdiction of the Great Song Dynasty, standing in front of the pass, the winding paths on both sides of the peaks and valley bottoms are in full view.
After leaving Taiyuan, Zhao Yu had been completely replaced by Khitan soldiers, and their first stop was Xijing in Liao, that is, Datong Mansion.
When Zhao Yu and his entourage walked out of Yanmen Pass, the gate immediately closed behind him, which seemed to indicate that Zhao Yu, the former prince, would no longer have anything to do with the Great Song Dynasty.
Lin Chong and the others were in a heavy mood, although Zhao Yu promised to come back, but who knows when it will be?
Zhao Yu is not so sad, he didn't regard Huizong as his father in his heart, and since he was beaten by Huizong to the end, he has no feelings at all.
The Khitans who were responsible for guarding Zhao Yu were all named Yeluhuan, although they were the surnames of the Khitan royal family, but everyone knew that there were many people with the surname Yelu in the Khitan, and not all people with this surname were royalty.
Ye Luhuan's attitude towards Zhao Yu is lukewarm, a typical formulaic style.
After going down the mountain, the temperature dropped suddenly, looking at the vast field, Zhao Yu suddenly became interested, and after saying hello, he took the lead and galloped indulgently.
The north wind was like a knife, and there was a faint pain on his face, but Zhao Yu didn't feel it at all, because this feeling was so good, here, he didn't need to disguise anymore, and he didn't need to deliberately please anyone...
Lin Chong, Wu Song and others were afraid that Zhao Yu would lose, so they hurriedly urged the horse to follow.
I don't want Zhao Yu's move to make Yeluhuan and other Khitan soldiers have a new understanding of Zhao Yu, it turns out that this Song man is not the kind of gentleman who can't see the wind and rain!
Because of Zhao Yu, the team had to speed up, but at this moment, a black line suddenly appeared on the horizon in the distance, and then the desolate and long horn sounded.
It was the first time for Zhao Yu and the others to see this kind of scene of an army galloping, and they couldn't help but be stunned for a while.
Lin Chong had trained soldiers, but the forbidden soldiers on the training ground could not be compared to these grassland soldiers on horseback.
"Your Highness quickly retreats"
When the army charges, the force of the individual cannot be shown at all, and all that can be done is to run.
"Your Highness doesn't need to panic, it's the palace guard Flying Bear Army"
Yeluhuan appeared next to Zhao Yu and the others at the right time, and at this time, Zhao Yu also saw a woman wearing a red cloak in front of him.
Although he couldn't see his appearance clearly, Zhao Yu had already guessed who it was, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help showing a smile, and he subconsciously clenched the dagger on his waist.
The northern woman is free and easy.
It was a group of three thousand horsemen, each wearing a bearskin hat, carrying a longbow and a spear, and a quiver and a scimitar at his waist.
Just by looking at this configuration, you know that this is an elite team.
Zhao Yu knew that the early Khitans were similar to the current Jurchens, sweeping the north, and they were invincible and invincible, but as time went by, the blood of the ancestors could no longer be found in the backs.
The three thousand iron horsemen galloped together, and the momentum was like an overwhelming sea, Rao is Zhao Yu, Lin Chong and others were mentally prepared, and they were also shaken by the shock.
Several people even thought in their hearts that it was no wonder that in the battle of Song Liao, the Song army was defeated in every battle, and I am afraid that the Great Song Dynasty did not have such cavalry at all.
The three thousand iron horses were like a whirlwind, and in a blink of an eye, they were close to the front, and the first one was white-skinned and beautiful, and his smile was like a flower, but who else was not Xiao Yiyi?
"Han boy, sure enough, what you say is true, this princess is not wrong about you"
"You've lost weight!"
Xiao Yiyi didn't expect Zhao Yu's first sentence when he saw her to be this, and he was stunned for a moment, and his eyes were a little red.
Even if you kid still have a little conscience, it's not in vain that I've been thinking about you...
An old ghost in two lives, of course he knows how to please girls, but then again, so far, Xiao Yiyi is really the first girl to enter his eyes.
looked at each other, and the two didn't know what to say for a while.
At this moment, an extremely incongruous voice sounded behind Xiao Yiyi.
"The Han people are used to coaxing people with sweet words, this little white face is not at ease at first glance, the princess must not be deceived by him"
As he spoke, a burly Khitan military general with a beard on his face rode his horse and rubbed it from behind.
"Yelumin, it's none of your business here, step down"
Xiao Yiyi, who was a little embarrassed, scolded, but her eyes glanced at Zhao Yu a little erratically.
Zhao Yu is not a hairy guy who doesn't know anything, when he saw that Yelu Min's expression like a sheep in estrus, he immediately understood that he was afraid that he had met a rival in love...
