…

The things that can shock and desolate Yelu Dashi are naturally related to Da Liao and Khitan, otherwise, what can make him, a heroic man who has experienced strong winds and waves, so moved?

This secret letter was actually sent back by the spies in Kedun City.

Back then, after Li Yan captured Xiao Puxian's daughter and forcibly adopted her as his concubine, Northern Liao was not completely destroyed - at that time, many Khitans took advantage of the chaos to escape from Yandi, and then went to take refuge in Emperor Tianzuo in Jiashan.

Later, when the Jin soldiers besieged Qingzun Village, Yelu Yali, the king of Liaoliang, and his brothers were besieged in Qingzun Village.

In that battle, Yeluding, the king of Liao Qin, and Yeluning, the king of Liaoxu, were captured by the Jin soldiers successively, and only Yelu Yali, who was in the army at the time, escaped under the escort of the mother brother of the Taibao in the hard village, and then took a small road to Yinshan to meet with Emperor Tianzuo.

At that time, Yelu Yali had more than 1,000 followers (most of these more than 1,000 people escaped from Yanjing with Brother Temu), more than the retinue around Emperor Tianzuo.

Emperor Tianzuo was worried that these people would become chaotic, so he wanted to kill Yelu Yali.

Emperor Tianzuo accused Yelu Yali of not being able to rescue all the kings, and prepared to interrogate Yelu Yali.

Emperor Tianzuo summoned Yelu Yali with a sword in his hand and asked, "Brother Temu, they taught you how to do it, do you want you to rebel and kill your father?" ”

Hearing this, Yelu Yali knelt down and said: "Now that the Great Liao is weak, we have no fixed residence, and there are less than 2,000 followers, my father must no longer suspect his subordinates...... The child can swear by the heavens, and there is no great rebellion, if he violates this word, the child is willing to be destroyed by heaven and earth......"

At that time, Emperor Tianzuo only had one son, Yelu Yali, by his side, and the rest of the sons were all captured by the Jin people, and what Yelu Yali said was the truth, they only had less than 2,000 people at that time, and if there was another civil strife, it might be completely over.

Therefore, Emperor Tianzuo finally let Yelu Yali go.

Soon after, Emperor Tianzuo planned to cross the Yellow River and flee to Western Xia.

Emperor Tianzuo's subordinate Yelu Enemy Lie was persuaded to no avail, so he and Temu Ge and others robbed Yelu Yali and fled north, and arrived at Dashaling in May of the same year.

At that time, Xiao Puxian, the regent of Northern Liao, had already given birth to a son for Li, so the Northern Liao regime had already existed in name only.

Therefore, three days after Yelu Dilie and others arrived at Shaling, they discussed together to support Yelu Yali as emperor.

Yelu Yali then became emperor, changed the name of the year to the divine calendar, and became the second emperor of Northern Liao.

Yeluyali was generous by nature, hated murder, and when he caught a fugitive, he only used flogging (the punishment of beating the prisoner's back or hips with bamboo boards and wattles), and if he was automatically attached, he was given an official position.

Jeruiari used to say to his right and left, "Those who want to be attached to me will come, and those who do not want to be attached to me will leave, so why force them to persecute them?" ”

Because of Yelu Yali's generous temperament, coupled with the residual power of the Liao Dynasty, the Wugu tribe Jiedu made the Zhu Zhe, the commander of the Dielie tribe, and the capital eunuch Tuli Bu and others to lead the troops to come and join them.

Slowly, more and more tribes came to cling to it.

This made Northern Liao also have a brief return to light.

However, Yeluyali became more and more indulgent and lazy, liking bowing and hunting, and had no intention of government.

Later, Brother Temu's brother spoke out, and Yeluyali stopped traveling and restrained a little.

But this Yelu Yali is not a successful person in the end, he governs the country like a child's play.

And when Jeruiari went out on his patrol, he gave great rewards to those who were weary and troubled.

His subordinates advised Jeruiari: "Now that the country is empty of money, what will we give for the army with such a reward?" ”

Jeruiari said angrily, "If there are no tribes, where will I collect my taxes?" He refused to accept the advice of his subordinates.

Jeruyali ordered the herds to deliver salt and corn, but the people stole it, and they agreed to register the quantity and order them to pay compensation.

Jeruiari drew up a value for himself: for every cart of corn stolen, he would pay a sheep; Three carts compensate one cow; five carts compensate one horse; Eight carts compensate one camel.

Both left and right said: "Now a sheep can't exchange two buckets of corn, but it can be used to compensate for a cart of corn!" ”

But Jeruiari stubbornly said: "What the people have is what I have, and if they are allowed to pay it all, how can the people bear it?" ”

All in all, Jeruiari is generous and generous, but he governs the country with the methods of a child, and seriously lacks the ability to govern.

Later, Yeluyali, who had not hunted for a long time, could not bear it anymore, so he went to Cha Thorn Mountain to hunt, and hunted forty yellow sheep and twenty-one wolves in one day.

As a result, due to excessive exercise, Jeruiari fell ill from overwork and died within a few days at the age of thirty.

After Yelu Yali's death, Yelu Dilie, Temu Ge and others supported Yelu Shulie, the great-grandson of Liao Xingzong, as the emperor.

Yelu Shulie, Yelu Dilie, Temuge and others later led the people of Northern Liao to flee to the Liao Dynasty's northern Xinjiang town, Kedun City, where the Northwest Road Recruitment Division was stationed.

At that time, the dragons of the city of Kedun had no leader, so they honored Yelu Shulie as the lord.

But this Yelu Shulie is also a man with no ambitions.

Because the city of Kedun was an important frontier town in the northwest of the Liao Dynasty, the frontier army was not allowed to be requisitioned at will, and the army was preserved in the war, and there were hundreds of thousands of horses that could be ridden here.

This gave Jerushreh the capital to live happily in the city of Kedun.

After Yelu Shulie arrived in the city of Kedun, he indulged in women's sex and safaris every day, so he was happy and happy, and he did not want to restore the past glory of the Great Liao Empire.

Slowly, the Khitans could no longer stand the rule of an incompetent person like Yelu Shulie.

So, not long ago, there was a mutiny in the city of Kedun, and both Yelu Shulie and Yelu Dilie were killed by the rebels, and Brother Temu was disheartened and stopped asking about the world.

What is even more tragic is that the rebels who launched the mutiny were only angry that Yelu Shulie did not want to make progress and ate and drink all day long, and had no intention of usurping power.

As a result, the last rule of the Liao Dynasty was also broken, and the city of Kedun is now in a state of leaderlessness.

In the past, the territory of the Great Liao Empire stretched east to the Sea of Japan, west to the Altai Mountains, north to the Ergun River, and south to the Baigou River in the south of Hebei.

Li Yan could understand Yelu Dashi's mood.

However, Li Yan did not sympathize with Yelu Dashi, just like if the future dynasty replaced the Dazhong Dynasty, its founding monarch would not sympathize with Li Yan's descendants.

Li Yan waved outside the door, and soon a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy who looked nine points similar to Li Yan walked in.

The young man came to Yelu Dashi's side, and then bowed to Li Yan and said, "The child greets his father!" ”

Li Yan motioned for the young man to get up, and then asked Yelu Dashi: "Aiqing, do you know this emperor of mine?" ”

Although Li Yan's sons looked alike, Yelu Dashi still recognized the young man in front of him at a glance as the first son of Li Xu, the king of Liao, Li Xu, the princess of their Great Liao Shu Kingdom.

Yelu Dashi put away his sadness and said, "How dare Weichen not know the King of Liao. Then he bowed to Li Xu and said, "Dashi greets the King of Liao!" ”

Li Xu hurriedly helped Yelu Dashi up, and said, "Don't dare to let my uncle perform this big gift." "——It turns out that from Yelu Yu Liyan, Li Xu should call Yelu Dashi his uncle.

After the two met, Li Yan said to Yelu Dashi: "I want Yue Fei and Ma Kuo to escort Xu'er north to Kedun City to subdue the remnants of the Northern Liao there, I don't know what Aiqing wants?" ”
