The Songshan Pavilion is not too far from the summer palace, and it is not too close, so you need to travel 300 miles through the mountains and forests of the remaining veins of Yanshan!

However, this 300-mile mountain road is not difficult to walk, because this area is the original core territory of the Liao State. Dading Mansion is Chukyo, Matsuyamakan is the Imperial Palace, and the Chirito Pine Forest to the north is the royal hunting ground. So the roads along the way have been renovated and easy to navigate. Moreover, the remaining veins of Yanshan are hills, and nothing is so tall that it is difficult to pass through the ridge. That is, Ma Mengshan, which separates Zhou and Eastern Liao, is taller, but the route from Songshan Pavilion to the Summer Palace does not need to cross Ma Mengshan, but can be detoured from the north of Ma Mengshan.

In addition, most of the 300-mile road section is the territory of Eastern Liao. Only less than 100 miles past Mameng Mountain is the land of the Zhou State.

However, the Zhou State did not develop and utilize this "land of a hundred miles", just look at the maps of later generations. The land is a rugged hilly terrain and, in the Middle Ages, a large wooded area. Only when you reach the Wulie River do you have some valleys.

However, the Wulie River often flooded, so the value of agricultural development was not high, so it was not allocated to knights and government soldiers. Just throw it there as a hunting ground and a forest farm.

As for the guards, they were not very tight, because the main passage from Chengde Mansion to Dading Mansion was to the south of Ma Mengshan. It was a big road, the road was wide, and there were many towns along the way, and it was relatively prosperous. And this road in the north, in fact, has only one use, that is, for Xiao Se to come to the summer palace and Wuhao ancient tryst......

Such a road of friendship, of course, is not well guarded, otherwise how troublesome it is?

Therefore, the regular troops of the Republican Army of the Great Zhou Dynasty did not continue to set up checkpoints on this mountain road, and only when Wu Haogu stayed in the summer palace, he would build a pavilion twenty miles north of the summer palace to set up defenses.

……

In the early morning of the first day of August in the first year of the Great Zhou Republic, the morning glow had not yet risen in the east, and it was still dark between heaven and earth. There are some floating clouds in the sky, and the moonlight is flickering and dark, but it is enough for people to see the back in front of them, and they will not fall behind.

In the darkness, a huge team of more than 10,000 people was quietly walking in the valley. The man's title, the horse's hooves, the halter and the chew tightly locked the neighing of the warhorse. As long as the sound of the babbling stream and the autumn wind blowing through the trees, accompanied by dense and low footsteps.

Yelu Ao Luhu and his "old Yeru" walked through the pre-dawn night. In order to save horsepower (when Wu Haogu and Xiao Se escaped, they needed to be pursued on horseback), no one rode horses, and all horses were led on foot. The road under your feet is very smooth, and when you walk on it, you will know that you have entered the territory of the Republic of Great Zhou—the capital construction of Great Zhou is always much better than that of its neighbors and subjects!

I don't know how long I walked with my head down, Ao Luwei looked up at the sky, it was still dark and gloomy, and it seemed that it would take two hours to see the morning glow.

Marching in the dark is, of course, a very risky operation. But Ao Luhui has no choice!

Before he sent out his troops from the Matsuyama Pavilion, one of Okuno's henchmen had already sent him the most terrible news - Wu Haogu had ordered him to be arrested!

Although he didn't say that he wanted to kill, but Wu Haogu wanted his son to sit firmly in the future of Daxi, how could he let Ao Luhu go?

It's the most ruthless emperor's family!

Between father and son, brothers, mother and son, all of them can kill the killer, not to mention Wu Haogu, the "father-in-law"?

Therefore, Ao Luhui had no choice but to break the cauldron and take a big gamble, concentrating all his strength to attack the summer palace. If he is lucky enough to win, the national glory of Da Liao can be continued, and Ao Luhui can also get the power he dreams of.

In the unfortunate event of failure, Ao Luhu can escape...... If you can't escape, you're just dying.

So for him, there is no reason to sit back and wait for death without a gamble. If that's the case, you won't have the face to see your ancestors when you die!

In addition, the henchmen sent by Okuno also informed Ao Lu of the situation in the summer palace.

Wu Haogu didn't have many pro-soldiers around him, only about one cavalry battalion, all of which were so-called fake pro-army and yellow-headed mercenaries. The combat power is very strong!

However, after years of construction, the area of the summer palace has become very large, and at the same time there is no strong city defense. It's hard to cover up a mere 1,800 people...... So Yelu Ao Lu can be a game.

At this moment, an elderly man came in a hurry from the front. He recognized the location of the king of Eastern Liao from the shadow of the sun and moon god held high above Ao Luwei in the night.

After announcing the name and password on the periphery, the horse was taken to Ao Luwei by the guards: "King, the front is the building hall." ”

The building hall is an abandoned Liao State Pavilion, located in the north of the summer palace, also by the Wulie River, and is the gateway to the north of the summer palace.

If Wu Haogu is still in the summer palace, then there must be a defense in the building!

Only by quickly passing through the building hall can Ao Luwei's soldiers and horses successfully pounce on the summer palace.

"Rest in place for a quarter of an hour." Ao Luhui passed his orders to the army. The veterans, who had worked hard for three days, did not say much, and sat down to rest and eat.

And Ao Luhui was still standing, motionless, staring at the pitch-black southern sky. Once again, I combed through the adventure plan from beginning to end. In addition to the trick of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, all that remains is to fight hard and the protection of the ancestors.

Although Wu Haogu did not establish an emperor, the security forces around him were not weak at all. As long as you leave the nest of Tianjin, there will definitely be a cavalry battalion of fake sons and pro-army personal guards. The regular soldiers of this cavalry battalion are all teenagers bought from the grassland or the savage Jurchens, and they have spent more than ten years of rigorous training to cultivate the elite. And everyone has experienced at least ten actual combat battles, and their combat effectiveness is extremely strong!

The auxiliaries of the false son army came from the yellow-headed Jurchens who were raised by the Great Zhou - these people were originally hunters of the Khitan nobles, who were hard-working and accustomed to activities in the mountains and forests, and were all natural good hunters.

After the conquest of the Liaodong Peninsula by the Zhou state, the yellow-headed Jurchen tribe submitted to Wuhaogu, and was later relocated to the province of Goryeo (Goryeo was the hometown of the yellow-headed Jurchen), where they were assigned to large mountainous areas, and were given the right to be exempt from taxes (Ding tax and Tian tax) and the obligation to provide soldiers with military service. Of course, the yellow-headed Jurchen warriors who passed the training and assessment could receive the salary of the mercenaries.

The pro-army composed of these two groups of people is not only fierce in combat, but also has a high loyalty to Wu Haogu, and once Wu Haogu is in danger, they will definitely fight to the death.

If these 1,800 fake soldiers and the yellow-headed Jurchen gathered together, then Yelu Aolu's 10,000 Khitan veterans really couldn't beat them - their combat effectiveness was at least comparable to that of the Born Girl Zhenda! In the absence of a large number of firearms to use, how could 10,000 old Khitans beat 1,800 Jurchen Daring?

However, after years of construction, the summer palace of Wuhaogu has become very large and covers a vast area. To the south of the museum, to the north of Xinghua County (Chengde Fuzhi), and to the north of the Wulie River, the large mountains and forests on both sides of the Wulie River belong to the summer palace and are the private property of Wuhaogu (the real bully landlord).

There are three large complexes, including a summer resort on the banks of the Wulie River, a hunting village located on Mt. Niushan, and a hot spring resort at the foot of Mt. Niu, located northeast of the summer resort, as well as some annexes scattered among the mountains and forests.

Therefore, Wu Haogu's 1,800 personal soldiers are also scattered, and it is difficult to gather them all in a hurry.

At the same time, Wu Haogu's residence is not fixed. There are no less than ten villa annexes that may be the sleeping place of Wu Haogu.

If it weren't for Da Okuno as his eyes and ears, Ao Lu Wei would have no way of knowing the specific location of Wu Haogu. His 10,000 Khitan veterans would be weak if they were scattered and attacked, but if they had to divide their troops.

So what Ao Luhu wants to see most now is the rocket signal cast by Da Okuno!

Suddenly, a faint flash of fire bloomed in the air in the distance, and then another firelight...... This is someone launching a signal rocket into the air (just a normal feathered arrow and a small powder jar)!

"King, it's a summer resort!" The veteran Yelu Dirigu reminded him.

"Good! The enemy is in the summer resort! Ao Lu Wei said loudly, "After the break, the whole army will attack the summer resort, and at all costs, we must cut off the heads of Xiao Sese and Wu Haogu!" ”

After resting for a while, tens of thousands of Khitan veterans got up and hurried south under the leadership of Ao Luhu, and rushed straight to the building hall.

The garrison in the building hall had already discovered the raiding Khitans and arranged defenses. But they were too few in number, only a few dozen, and they had no strong fortifications to rely on. So it was quickly overwhelmed by the Khitan army.

Before the battle in the building hall was over, Ao Luhui divided into a brigade and personally led a detour to the summer resort. While advancing, he set fire to the mountains and forests!

Now it is a dry autumn, the mountains and forests are the most prone to fire, and the fire together, even if it can't burn Wu Haogu, it can also create chaos and make Wu Haogu's people and horses at a loss.

"Father-in-law! Mother! The mountains and forests are on fire, and there are thieves who attack the summer palace! ”

Wu Haogu, who was rubbing Xiao Se to sleep, was awakened by Xiao Da Okuye, who broke into the dormitory.

Okuno was already wearing chain mail and carrying a horizontal knife, looking like a loyal protector of the lord - she was guarding the outside of the dormitory as Xiao Sise's bodyguard.

There are also several yellow-headed Jurchen maidservants in the dormitory, led by a housekeeper and maid named Tianli Maiden, who are guarding in front of the master's couch with wooden sticks.

Wu Haogu woke up in shock, sat up suddenly, looked at Da Okuno and asked, "Da Okuno, what's the matter?" ”

"Father-in-law, the pro-army guarding the building hall has just come to report that there are unknown enemy troops coming from the north, raiding the building hall and setting fire to the mountain! There are so many enemies that it is difficult to defend against ......"

"From the north? Could it be that the Jurchens called? ”

Empress Dowager Xiao, who was sleeping with Wu Haogu, also sat up, her clothes were not draped, she was naked, her face was pale, "It's not a Jurchen, it must be Yelu of Songshan Pavilion!" ”
