Chapter 214 The Liao Lord's Personal Expedition
Wang Lun decided to go north this time, one was the stability of Liangshan, and the other was the great prosperity of the Jin Kingdom, and he had to curb it.
In Liao, there are also people of insight who are worried about the rise of Jurchen.
Besides, Yelu Axibao, when he heard the news of the fall of the Huanglong Mansion, he stayed awake all night. He knew that the only one who could confide his heart was Xiao Tianyi, the Taifu of the same hall.
Early the next morning, Ah Xibao went to Mrs. Xiao's house, and the two exchanged pleasantries to get to the point. Ah Xibao said: "The Huanglong Mansion has been captured by the Jin people, have you heard of it?" ”
Taifu sighed: "This big thing unless the deaf don't know, the news of the fall of Huanglong Mansion reached the capital and the government and the opposition were shocked, the Jin Kingdom occupied Ningjiang Prefecture, Chuhedian, and now occupies Huanglong Mansion, this fire is about to burn to the doorstep, I don't know what the emperor is still thinking?" ”
Ah Xibao replied helplessly: "What do you think?" In addition to hunting or hunting, the Jin soldiers attacked the city, and the situation in my Daliao was critical, but the emperor believed the words of the villain, and did not accept the advice of loyal ministers. If it goes on like this, Ah Guda captured the Huanglong Mansion today, and tomorrow he will take the capital with troops. ”
Taifu said: "The lord has repeatedly said that he will eradicate the bone fight as soon as possible, but the emperor just can't listen to it." Ah Xibao sighed and said: "The emperor is obedient to Xiao Fengxian and Li Chuwen, and it is better to protect himself in the future." ”
Taifu said: "My lord, you and I are difficult to change, and we would rather be embarrassed than welcome." Ah Xibao said: "You and I are loyal to the country, only God knows." The two men talked from morning to noon before parting hands.
On this day, Tianzuo stood in two classes of civil and military affairs, and Tianzuo was furious. He clapped his hand on the imperial case and shouted: "Yelu Neng is incompetent, causing the Huanglong Mansion to be captured by the Jin soldiers!" ”
The court was solemn, and the ministers looked at each other and were speechless for a while.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Ah Xibao went out and said: "Your Majesty, the traitor Ah Gu is known as the emperor, his ambition is obvious, and he has repeatedly violated the border. The emperor was merciful and sent Yu Jin several times, so that he could defend the land and pay tribute. However, Ah Guta did not listen to the advice, but instead used his army to plunder my territory and occupy the city of my state. This rebellious and greedy is insatiable, and Wanglong is pressed by Shu step by step. With all due respect, Yelu Neng once wrote a letter asking for help, and later learned that the letter was obtained by the Jin people, and the Jin soldiers pretended to be my messenger and sent a false letter to deceive the saint, and the saint was still relieved that the Huanglong Mansion wanted to insist on sending troops, but someone was arrogant and stopped it, so that the city was lost. Your Majesty, Yelu Neng is not incompetent, he is seriously injured and feels powerless to return to heaven, and he is martyred for the country, so he should build a monument to show his festival! ”
Xiao Feng first glanced at Ah Xi Bao and said, "Lord Ah Xi Bao, you are clearly accusing the saint!" ”
Ah Xi was furious: "Lord Xiao, Huanglong Mansion is impregnable, how is it today?" Xiao Fengxian said arrogantly: "You are accusing me again? Ah Xibao said: "Since I dare to accuse the saints, who else dare not accuse?" ”
Tianzuo slapped his hand on the imperial case and shouted: "Hugh is rude! Quarrel with each other in the court, what kind of system! The court suddenly fell silent, Tianzuo stood up and walked back and forth from the dragon chair, and then returned to the imperial case, he tried to calm himself down.
Tianzuo glanced at the ministers under the ranks, and said: "The fall of the Huanglong Mansion has made it difficult for me to sleep and eat, and it is urgent to discuss how to recapture the Huanglong Mansion." At this time, Xiao Tianyi came out of the class and hugged his fists and said: "Holy Lord, you can no longer regard the extermination of thieves as child's play, you should immediately pour out the strength of the whole country and eradicate it in one fell swoop. ”
Xiao Tianyi played, Ah Xibao played again: "Your Majesty, Ah Gu is a hero, not comparable to leisure, now the feathers are getting fuller, if you listen to Lord Xiao Tianyi's words earlier, there will be no today's disaster, Wangsheng sent a heavy army to suppress, I can't let him plunder my territory, take my rivers and mountains!" ”
Xiao Fengxian saw that Ah Xibao and Xiao Tianyi sang and harmonized, and their words were directed at him, and immediately played:
"Shengshang, although Ah Guda has gained momentum for a while, and has won several state cities in a row, it seems to be menacing, but its national soldiers and horses are only 30,000, which is really a drop in the bucket compared to my million army. Huanglong Mansion is not Linhuang Mansion after all, isn't the words of the two adults a bit alarmist and making a big fuss? ”
Xiao Tianyi asked rhetorically, "What does Lord Fengxian mean?" Xiao Fengxian said vigorously: "Hey, Lord Tianyi, the minister, worry about the king, it is the duty of the minister, and I lost a Huanglong Mansion, why make a fuss, the emperor wanted to go to Beishan to hunt tomorrow, but I didn't expect your words to ruin everyone's good mood and defeat the emperor Yaxing!" ”
Li Chuwen echoed: "Lord Fengxian is extremely right, the matter is not as serious as you said! Xiao Hudu, a close attendant, also said: "I have been practicing bows and arrows with the emperor for many days, if you lose this hunt, wouldn't it be a pity?" Xiao Tianyi pointed at the three of them and said sharply: "You are complicit, you are misleading the country!" Xiao Hudu was not to be outdone, and pointed at Xiao Tianyi: "You are a bloody squirting person!" ”
Tianzuo slapped his hand on the imperial case and said loudly: "Enough! The court was quiet again, and Xiao Fengxian squinted at Xiao Tianyi and Ah Xibao, and snorted.
Tianzuo wanted to discuss the strategy of sending troops, but the ministers of the Northern Mansion were arguing, so he set his sights on Zhang Lin, the prime minister of the Southern Mansion. Tianzuo said: "Zhang Aiqing, what do you think?" Zhang Lin hugged his fists and said: "Your Majesty, forgive the ministers, several defeats in the battle, lost lightly, according to the opinion of the ministers, if the army can be mobilized to mobilize 200,000 Han soldiers to divide the way to fight, you can disperse the forces of the Jin State, and the lost land can be rebellious and peaceful, I don't know what the emperor wants?" ”
Tianzuo said: "What Aiqing said is extremely true, now the thief is full of potential, if I don't eradicate it, I am afraid that it will shake the foundation of my Great Liao Kingdom." Ah Xi Bao said: "The emperor is sage." Xiao Fengxian saw that the emperor was going to send heavy troops to fight, and he was afraid that others would take the credit, so he played: "If the emperor sends troops to fight the thief, the minister is willing to lead soldiers and horses to exterminate the Jin soldiers, and first Ningjiangzhou and then Huanglong Mansion." ”
Tianzuo asked: "Why did Aiqing give up the near and far to seize Ningjiang Prefecture first?" Feng Xian said: "Ningjiang Prefecture directly threatens Aguta Laochao Huining, if this city is captured, the golden soldiers of Huanglong Mansion will definitely return to the army to rescue, and I will intercept and kill with heavy troops, and Huanglong Mansion can return to my court." ”
Hearing this, Tianzuo said: "This battle is so important, I will personally fight and eradicate Ah Gu to prevent future troubles." ”
Li Chuwen took a step forward, hugged his fists and wanted to say something, Tianzuo said that he had made up his mind, so he didn't say anything more. The eunuch shook off the dust and said "scatter the dynasty", Xiao Fengxian and Li Chuwen looked at each other, and also retired with the ministers. This time, Tianzuo decided to send a heavy army to conquer in person, vowing to destroy Aguta and regain the lost territory.
Two days later, Tianzuo came to court again. Tianzuo said: "I have conquered the female straight this time, Xiao Fengxian is the governor of the soldiers and horses, with the enclosure envoy A Bu as the vanguard, Yelu Zhangnu as the supervisor, commanding 150,000 Khitan and Han soldiers, and transferring the privy council to Chai Yi to lead the Han infantry to ride 30,000, and send troops from the Talu River to attack Ningjiang Prefecture. Li Chuwen and Xiao Wuna stayed in Shangjing, everything had to be done cautiously, and the armies of all walks of life went their separate ways. Tomorrow at noon, I will worship the day and prepare to set out. ”
The ministers of the army knelt down and said, "The ministers obey the order!" After Tianzuo announced, he still felt that the troops were insufficient, and he issued an edict again, ordering the horse Xiao Yu, Lin Ya Xiao Cha to lead the cavalry, and the infantry to 50,000 each. Tianzuo allocated a total of 230,000 horses to conquer Aguta.
