689 The League of Youzhou
"The husband just has to go and get busy, there are concubines and three girls at home to take care of!" The eldest princess likes to hear this the most, and a woman should teach her husband and children, and ask why she is doing so many things.
"If you want to buy more beef and come back, you have to borrow a boat with Chen Niang first, Sidi, you are tired and run with me!" Since it's a nonsense, naturally you can't leave the insiders in the house, in that case, you will have to show your stuff on the front foot and the back foot.
"Yes, it is the duty of the slave family to serve the officials!" This time, Sidi behaved more virtuously than the eldest princess, and agreed very simply, and bowed her head and gave a salute. If it weren't for the eldest princess and Monday, she would have laughed out loud, and finally be able to go home to see her son!
In the first year of Qinghe, the first year of the new emperor passed in a muddy and busy way.
The confusion is that most of the people have no change for them whether they change the era name or the emperor. It is a small number of officials and gentry who are busy, and the new emperor represents a new political situation and a new division of interests.
Thanks to their efforts, the Song Empire and the Liao Empire reached another brotherly covenant, and unlike the Tanyuan Alliance, the Song Empire became the elder brother, and the Liao Empire became the younger brother.
The elder brother opened a field in Danzhou and Jizhou, and the younger brother sent some war horses and furs to the elder brother's family every year, and then the two brothers were reconciled and coexisted peacefully.
At this time, Hong Tao was on the top of Halla Mountain as the king, Princess Terry was the queen, more than 100 Khitan people sent by Wang Hao's merchant ship and dozens of original Khitan prisoners of war on the island were nationals, the slopes of Halla Mountain were the national land, and Bailutan was the royal court.
He, the king, is very mediocre in Chenniang's words, unenterprising, and extravagant. Every day, I knew that I would take the queen to travel the mountains and rivers, and throw all the things about governing the kingdom to Xiao Wuna, and sooner or later I would be usurped.
Let's usurp the throne, say it's a kingdom, but in fact, it's just a little mountain grassland in the middle of Jeju Island, which can feed thousands of people at most, and no matter how diligent you are, it's useless.
This was obtained by Hong Tao and several Jewish elders who had broken their tongues and promised to let the Wen family build them two more armed merchant ships and use their own credit to guarantee that the Khitans would never become independent.
Even if it can develop, Terry is his wife and concubine, Chen Niang is still his daughter, no one on either side can be biased, they are all fallen people at the end of the world, so they have to pity each other.
"I'll be your brother's wild father!" Looking at the results of the Song-Liao peace talks brought by Wang Hao, Hong Tao directly scolded, he was very dissatisfied with this Youzhou covenant.
I have cleared the Yanshan Mountain Range, won't the waste of the imperial court take advantage of the condescending advantage to have more buffer zones? Even if you can't hold it in your hand, the two sides can manage it together, which doesn't mean that there is another layer of protective film in the north of the mountain range.
As long as the Song Dynasty made this request, the Liao State had to agree if it didn't agree, otherwise the grassland near the mountain range would not be able to hold it at all, and the cavalry of the Song Dynasty would come down whenever they wanted, and there was no difference between letting the nomads defend and letting them die.
It's a pity that the court didn't even understand this point, and licked its face to negotiate with others, spending so much financial, manpower, and material resources, so it robbed a brother's name and came back to use it.
"If you can mobilize the forces of Shangjing Province, Zhongjing Province, and Tokyo Province to attack from the east and west, and then unite with the party members, Youzhou may be able to change hands, and even if it is given, it should not be so easy to give out......"
Hong Tao was not satisfied, and Xiao Wuna was not very satisfied. It's just that the stance is the opposite. Fortunately, he also recognized the identity of Princess Terry, so in principle, he has become Hong Tao's retainer, and there is no need to deliberately hide some things.
"What's the matter, you're still not convinced, are you? If I hadn't detained you in Xijin Mansion back then, you would have become the cannon fodder of Emperor Liao, and you would have had a chance to complain here! "Dare to provoke the Great Song Dynasty military god, Hong Tao really can't bear it, and he starts to expose his shortcomings very tastelessly.
"My lord just met a Ming Jun, and his luck was a little better than that of Zaixia......" Xiao Wuna must be very unconvinced, but after looking at Jiang Erlang next to him, he had to endure it if he was not convinced.
"How can the general of the defeated army be brave, now there is no Ming Jun behind me, and there is no faint Jun behind you, do you dare to fight again?" Obviously, he was not convinced, but this could not be done, and Hong Tao's eyes turned to his heart.
"It's better to be free, the sword has no eyes, if it hurts an adult, won't the princess have to be helpless again."
Xiao Wuna really wanted to fight, in his opinion, Wang Xuan was a scheming, opportunistic, and particularly shameless opportunist, and he could fight at least three by himself. It's a pity that the times are pressing, not only can't hurt him, but also have to protect him.
"Terry, Lord Xiao sarcastically ridiculed your man as a shrunken turtle and a soft egg, can we bear it?" Don't give yourself the stairs down, Hong Tao doesn't eat this set, and he has made a big move.
"If you can't win, don't come back, it's not my man!" Terry knew that this man was calculating others with himself, and he couldn't dodge, so he pulled out a short knife from his waist and threw it on the ground, according to the habit of the Khitans, this was the beginning of the duel.
"See, my family is so bold. Come on, Lord Xiao, do you want a civil fight or a martial fight! Is it enough to have Erlang and Wang Zuotou as witnesses? If that's not enough, call Her Majesty again. Seeing that the foreplay was almost ready, Hong Tao picked up a small shovel and began to dig the pit.
"How about Wendou and what about Wudou?" The resentment in Xiao Wuna's heart has never disappeared, especially against Hong Tao. There were all kinds of factors that had to be endured before, and I couldn't help it when I was so angry, and I planned to teach this bastard a lesson that didn't know the height of the sky.
"Wendou is just talking on paper, according to the arrangement of the troops in the battle of Xijin Mansion that year, it will be changed to you commanding the Liao army to deduce it again, and then it will be judged by the princess, General Jiang, and Wang Zuotou. Martial arts, the new army is the best at bows and crossbows, and the main general will naturally not be weaker than the soldiers. Let's compare who shoots farther, shoots accurately, and shoots thoroughly. Hong Tao also made a temporary decision, while rolling his eyes to ponder the gains and losses, he drew down the road and waited for Xiao Wuna to be fooled.
"I choose martial arts, what kind of weapons do I use to compare?" Like a frightened boar, Xiao Wuna did not turn a corner, and rushed straight into the trap set by the hunter.
"Feel free, you don't have to stick to the Liao Army and the Song Army, let's compare the ability of the main general, you can use whatever you want!" Hong Tao was like a hound chasing behind, driving the wild boar to the edge of the trap without giving an inch.
"Please also ask General Jiang to borrow a bow and crossbow......" Xiao Wuna didn't feel that there was a pit in front of him, grinned, and didn't give in, so he stretched out his hand to Jiang Erlang.
"My lord, this is not suitable......" Jiang Erlang, even if he knew that the horses were scheming and had no last resort, he was not very optimistic about this competition.
He knows the strength of the horse best, squatting in a dark corner Yin is a first-class strength in the new army, and even he was overshadowed when he trained special forces. But in the face of real swords and real guns, he can't even beat ordinary soldiers of the New Army.
Xiao Wuna, a Khitan nobleman who grew up on horseback and played with bows and crossbows as toys, and then had a pulley crossbow, which was more powerful than special forces in one-on-one long-range power, isn't it please wait to lose.
"The manly man will tell his word, give it to him! Baby, go and get your husband's soul chasing gun! ”
As the saying goes, how can you dare to go to Liangshan without three, two, three, Wang Hao came this time not only with Khitan prisoners of war, but also three bamboo tubes handed over by Wang Shi. They are sealed with a tarp all around, and they are heavy in their hands, preferably ten pounds. Hong Tao only said that it was called the Soul Chaser Gun, and it was handed over to Terry for safekeeping first, but he didn't expect to show up so soon.
"What is the Soul Chaser?" Wang Hao's curiosity is also quite big, he brought the bamboo tube, but he doesn't know what is inside. Listening to the name should be a weapon, ask Jiang Erlang should have the answer.
"I've never seen it...... However, Xiao Wuna is also dangerous, the last time the adult came to demonstrate, there was a weapon called a musket, which is much more powerful than a bow and crossbow, presumably the soul chasing gun is a musket......" Hearing this name, Jiang Erlang immediately gave Xiao Wuna a look of pity.
Poor people, they can't go back to their homes, they can't return to their countries, they stay honestly on an isolated island, and there are people who come all the way to chase and bully. No one can provoke this colt, too grandson.
What kind of soul chasing gun, Hong Tao just said it so casually, in fact, it was a sample of a rear-loading rifle made by Huang Huai'an. The ancients liked to give weapons a more powerful name, which is also considered to be a local custom.
