Chapter 35 Listen to the slander and kill the concubine and leave for the rest of the day
The thirty-fifth time listened to the slander and killed the concubine and left
After shooting the willows, a more lively batting scene begins. This kind of batting scene is also a custom of the Liao people, which is followed by the Jurchens.
The main tools of the batting game are the cane and the ball. The bow staff is several feet long, and its end is like the shape of a glaive. The ball is the size of a fist and is made of lightweight, resilient wood. The center is hollowed out and painted in red, which is very dazzling. Two wooden pillars were erected at the south end of the course, a plank was placed between the two wooden pillars, and a gate was opened. There is a net bag hanging under the goal, and the ball is hit into the goal and falls into the net bag. Another way to do this is to have two gates at the north and south ends of the course. The batsmen are divided into two teams and compete for a ball together. If the ball is hit in the net, the winner is determined.
If shooting willows is a performance of an individual's own skills, then hitting the ball is a manifestation of the overall skill. This requires not only superb riding skills for each participant, but also physical fitness and the spirit of striving for the first. As a result, the atmosphere of batting is also more enthusiastic and engaging.
Batting is a popular sport for everyone in the country, so it is divided into several groups. In the whole batting game, the most striking thing is the separation. The separation is not skilled, but also as strong as the wind. If the ball reaches his staff, he will magically control the ball, and it will be very difficult for the opponent to take the ball out of his hands. On this day, he hit three goals in a row and finally won the victory. He is not known as Zongwang, also known as Lu Bu, and is the second son of Aguta. Ah Gu also likes to hit the ball, and he is the head of their team. Because of the victory, he was very happy, and he said to everyone: "We won by separation, and he made a great contribution to us." When they heard this, they shouted in unison, lifted up the detachment, and threw it into the sky.
In the afternoon, the batting game was over, and then the banquet of the monarchs and ministers began. Ah Guda raised his wine glass and said, "Whenever we talk about the Western Expedition, most of your plans before and after are based on the overall situation, which is very agreeable. In the clan, although there are many people who are older than you, and there are also many people who have more experience than you, no one can compare with you when it comes to the talent of the marshal. The ancients said well: 'In the midst of strategizing, the decisive victory is thousands of miles away'. But you, my brother, can not only strategize in the midst of the curtains, but also win victories thousands of miles away, a divine steed of our Wanyan tribe, and a mountain eagle of our Jurchens. After today, you should be a soldier and wait for the time of the division. Today, I should drink wine for you, please toast! As he spoke, he poured a full drink and ordered Sticky Han to drink it all. After drinking, Ah Guda took off his clothes again and draped them on Sticky Han's body. When Mu Han received this honor, he was moved to tears. At this meeting, the foresight and military talent of Sticky Han were appreciated by the first emperor of the Jin Kingdom, Aguta, who also had superhuman ambition and military talent, and gave full recognition and appreciation. His important position in the Kingdom of Jin was also determined in this festival of worship.
Within a few days of that, Mu Han was named the Shifter. and appointed Pu Jianu as Hao Bo Jilie. With Pujianu as the capital and Sticky Han as the deputy capital, he conquered the Liao State in the west. It was only because it was summer and it was rainy, so I couldn't make the trip.
Soon, a very unexpected, but exhilarating good news came from Xianzhou, the Liao State Governor Yelu Yu led the subordinates to surrender to the Xianzhou Metropolitan Division.
It turned out that when Ah Guda conquered Shangjing, he sent someone to summon Yelu Yu. I didn't want the messenger to go outside the camp of Yeluyu, but he was refused. At that time, Jeruyum had his plans. He originally intended to lead his troops to rescue Shangjing, but after learning that Shangjing had been captured, he knew that it would be useless to attack the enemy in Shangjing again, and would even lead to the danger of annihilation. He expected that Aguta would not bring much food and salary with the army, and he would not be able to stay in Beijing for a few days before withdrawing the army. Therefore, he sent an order to the army, turned east, and planned to set up an ambush on the Liao River and take the opportunity to attack the Jin army.
Yelu Yu had just been deployed, and the Jin army had already returned. Yelu Yu saw that the Jin army was strong and did not dare to attack rashly, so he let go of the front army and the middle army of the Jin army, and surrounded the Wanyan Tehu headquarters after the Jin army was broken. It turned out that this Wanyan Tehu was a member of the generals under the command of the mother, and his ancestral home was Yada Lanshui. The long stature is tall and heroic. Every time he is in battle, he always takes the lead. In the battle of the ancient city of Daru, Wanyan Huonu was trapped in the enemy formation, and Wanyan Tehu entered the siege and rescued her. In the battle of Zhaosan City, 3,000 Liao soldiers came to resist the battle. Wanyan Tehu took the lead again and defeated it. During the capture of Luge, the general Maji was stabbed by the enemy general and fell under his horse. Wanyan Tehu saw it nearby, slapped his horse and killed five or six Liao soldiers in a row. Seeing his bravery, the Liao soldiers did not dare to approach. Wanyan Tehu held a spear in one hand and Maji in the other and clashed out of the encirclement. This scene of war made Wanyan Tehu's reputation spread throughout the army. On the same day, after Yan Tehu led the army hall, he fell into the heavy siege of Yelu Yuzhen. He fought with his generals for half a day, although he killed and injured many enemies, but because he was outnumbered, he was still trapped in the heart and it was difficult to break through. Seeing that there were fewer and fewer soldiers, the horse ridden by Wanyan Tehu was tired and could not gallop. In desperation, he abandoned his horse and fought on foot, and finally retreated to a hill, where he was killed by random arrows. Yan Mu got the flying report and urgently sent Wan Yan Bei Da, Uta and other generals to lead the army to help, but it was too late, Wan Yan Tehu and his troops had been wiped out. The two sides fought a scuffle, and each led his troops to retreat.
Yelu Yu set up an ambush and won, and his heart was very happy. When he returned to the camp, he wanted to send someone to report to Emperor Tianzuo of Liao. Unexpectedly, his cronies galloped in from Zhongjing and reported to him a news that surprised him but had to believe it, and immediately pushed him into an embarrassing situation.
It turned out that Yelu Yu was a member of the close clan of Emperor Tianzuo of Liao, who was generous by nature and extremely righteous, and was first appointed as the deputy commander. His wife is the sister of Tianzuo Emperor Concubine Wen. Concubine Wen's name is Cersei, and Yelu Yu's wife is named Qinqin. The son of Se Se was named the king of Jin, the most virtuous, the reputation is rising, and he is also very popular among the top and bottom of the Liao State. Empress Xiao, the empress of Emperor Tianzuo, was named Duoli Lazy, and she also gave birth to a son and was named King of Qin. And Empress Xiao's brothers Xiao Fengxian, Xiao Baoxian and others were in charge of the country, and they were very jealous in their hearts, only afraid that his nephew King Qin would not be able to inherit the throne. And seeing that Yelu Yu had the power of the army, it was convenient to secretly watch for an opportunity, and planned to get rid of him.
There are always very fortuitous things happening in the world, and these coincidental things often make a conspiracy come true. Xiao Fengxian wanted to frame others, but he also encountered an opportunity. On this day, Qinqin went to visit her close friend, who had become the wife of the general Jerod Tartley. However, the place where the two met was in the army. Perhaps in the eyes of Qinqin and the others, this is an extremely ordinary thing that is not worth making a fuss about. They would never have dreamed that a pair of sinister and vicious eyes had been staring at them for a long time. Just when Xiao Fengxian was helpless to harm Concubine Wen because he couldn't find a suitable excuse, Qinqin and her girlfriend's very ordinary meeting in the barracks provided him with an excuse to play the topic.
Xiao Fengxian secretly assigned his cronies, first to go around, and then to falsely accuse Yelu Yu of secretly colluding with the concubine Xiao Yu and the general Tart Ge Li, and conspired to jointly establish the King of Jin as the emperor, and respect the Tianzuo Emperor as the emperor. They also made up a lot of lies, saying that Yelu Yuzhen's wife, Qinqin, and Tartley's wife, were the ones who were secretly threading the needle. After the dim-witted Emperor Tianzuo heard Xiao Fengxian's one-sided words, he believed it without investigation. He immediately ordered the horses Xiao Yu and Tart Geri to be hunted and killed together with his wife, and Concubine Wen was given to death. At that time, Yelu Yu was still in the army, and Xiao Fengxian said to Emperor Tianzuo: "Yelu Yu has military power in his hands, and if he does not get rid of it, he will leave endless troubles." When Emperor Tianzuo heard this, he thought it was reasonable, and immediately ordered Taishi Xiao to bring the edict, and led Xiao Yaomai of Xiwangfu, Xiao Degong, the prime minister of the north, Taichang Gon Yelu Di Ligu, and the Guizhou observation envoy Xiao and Shangnu to pursue Yelu Yuxuan.
Yelu Yu was in the barracks, and he was in a state of panic all day long, and it was difficult to decide where to stay. He wanted to go south to the Song Kingdom, but the road was far away, the mountains were high and the roads were dangerous, and there were many passes along the way, so he was afraid that he would not reach a hundred miles on the way south, and he would be annihilated in the encirclement and interception of the Liao army. It is impossible to go south to the Song Dynasty, and there is only one way to go east to invest in gold. As long as you lead the army to the east, you will not encounter too much obstruction from the Liao army along the way, and the distance from the Jin country is relatively close, and you will only arrive in a dozen days. However, just a few days ago, he led his troops to attack the rearguard of the Jin Kingdom and beheaded their generals, and the monarchs and ministers of the Jin Kingdom may still be resentful, will they forgive him? Yelu Yu also thought of returning to the court alone, meeting Emperor Tianzuo, and discerning his own grievances. But it seems that this is simply not possible. He knew in his heart that maybe he hadn't seen Emperor Tianzuo yet, and he would have already fallen into the hands of Xiao Fengxian and his group, so it didn't mean that he would find the door to die? Thinking about it, there is nothing to be done. At this time, his relatives and friends sent people to deliver letters to him one after another, saying that Emperor Tianzuo had listened to Xiao Fengxian's slander and sent four military horses to pursue him, and he would arrive in a few days. After Yelu Yu learned the news, he knew that the situation was imminent and urgent. If you don't make a decision, you will be left with no end in sight. At that moment, he told the dangerous situation he was facing and the generals of his department, and everyone thought that the death of Emperor Tianzuo of Liao had already been revealed. And the monarchs and ministers of the Jin State are united in their hearts and minds, and they have won many battles, and the person who will destroy the Liao State in the future must be the Emperor of the Jin State. If you want to find a way to survive, the only way to go to Jin Guo is the best policy. When Yelu heard this, he felt very reasonable. He didn't dare to stay any longer, and led more than 1,000 people and flesh and blood military tents to come straight to the Jin Kingdom. It turned out that there were two ways to go from the land of Yeluyu's garrison to the realm of Jinguo. One is a small road, which is relatively close and leads directly to Huanglongfu in Jinguo, but the road is rugged and very difficult to walk. One is the main road, which can reach Xianzhou in the Jin country. Although the distance is long, the route is flat and easy to march. Yelu Yu thought that the path was relatively hidden and the distance was close, so he chose to take the path to Huanglong Mansion.
Who knew that the sky was not beautiful, and after walking for two or three days, it rained heavily. As a result, the already difficult path is now even more muddy. This army of more than 1,000 people traveled less than thirty or fifty miles in a day on this rugged mountain road. When Yelu Yu saw this, he was anxious. He knew that the pursuers were behind him, and if he didn't quickly enter the realm of the Jin Kingdom, if he let the pursuers catch up, it would be more than lucky. After careful consideration, he ordered his subordinates to turn south and go straight to Xianzhou along the main road.
Xiao Wei, the Taishi of the Liao State, led the four people and horses to chase after them all the way. When we reached a three-way intersection, we saw two separate roads. One goes straight to the northeast and the other goes straight to the southeast. Xiao Wei inquired with the local people, and then learned that the road to the northeast was the road to Huanglongfu, and the road to the southeast could go directly to Xianzhou. Xiao Wei gathered the four of them together and said, "These two roads can lead to the territory of the Jin Kingdom, but I don't know which way Yelu Yu wants to take." When the four of them heard this, they looked at each other, and none of them said a word. Xiao Wei said again: "If we chase from the northeast road, if Yu Yu escapes from the southeast road, won't it be useless?" On the other hand, if we chase to the southeast, and if Yu Zhen goes straight to the Huanglong Mansion, won't we still have to pounce into the air? Today's plan is better to divide the troops into two ways, which is a foolproof strategy. When the four of them heard this, they said in unison: "The words of the master are extremely reasonable, and we are willing to listen to the dispatch." Xiao Wei said: "Since this is the case, then please ask Xiao Yaomai of Xiwangfu and Xiao Degong, the prime minister of the north, to lead the troops and horses to chase in the direction of Huanglong Mansion, and I and the other two generals will chase along the direction of Xianzhou, what do you think?" The four said, "This is very good, we are commanded." "With that, each led his troops and horses away.
Xiao Hui, the Taishi of the Liao State, and Xiao Shangnu, the Taichang Gong Yelu Diligu, and the Guizhou Observation Envoy Xiao Shangnu, led the armies along the southeast avenue. Along the way, he asked the two: "Two generals, is it better for us to catch up with Yu Yan this time, or if we can't catch up?" The two listened and said, "If the Taishi doesn't blame us, of course we hope that we can't catch up." Xiao Wei asked, "Why is this?" The two said: "The king of Jin is the most virtuous, and the government and the opposition hope that he can inherit the throne and reorganize the mountains and rivers of Liao. Who knew that Xiao Fengxian killed Concubine Wen with conspiracy and trickery, and wanted to hunt down Yu Yan. If we catch up with Yu Zhen, won't we be aiding in the abuse? Xiao Wei listened, sighed, and said: "This is reasonable, Xiao Feng first spoiled and misled the country and the people. Yu Yan is a close clan of the clan, and he has great talents, and now he has been wronged in vain. If we do something for the tiger, we will capture him. Then, it won't be long before we all become afterthoughts. ”
The three of them were talking and urging the army to go. When I arrived at Lushan, I saw the flag fluttering in front of me, and there were faint voices of people shouting and neighing. Xiao Wei ordered all the soldiers to be stationed on the spot, and he rode straight down the mountain with Yelu Diligu and Xiao Shangnu.
As Yelu Yu was about to go, he suddenly heard that the pursuers had arrived, and he was shocked. At that moment, the herald set up the formation, and he stood in front of the formation, making a posture of imminent battle. After a while, I saw three horses galloping towards me, and when I looked closer, they were all familiar with each other. I saw Xiao Wei bowing deeply on the horse and said, "The general doesn't need to be suspicious, we are here to see off the general." Yelu Yu said: "Now that the traitor is in charge, it is difficult for me to have a place to stand. Aren't the generals here for the sake of my skull? Xiao Wei and the other three said, "No, it's not. The three of us did not want to take advantage of the danger of the general and do harm for the traitors. Excuse me, General, where are you going now? When Yu Yan heard this, tears fell like rain, and said: "There is no enthusiasm for serving the country, but it is difficult to run to a home and a country." Between the vast world and the world, where is my home again? Xiao Wei said: "In my opinion, it is better to go to the country of gold and take shelter for the time being." We will say goodbye to each other, and I hope that the general will do it himself. "Say that, give a deep salute, and beat the horse back. Find out what happens next, and listen to the next breakdown.
