For the nomads, the king's tent is where the royal court is located, and for the nomadic king's khan, the king's tent is his court, analogous to the Central Plains Empire, and the royal tent of the steppe khanate is the moving palace. It is difficult for the people of the Central Plains to believe that there are felt tents that can accommodate hundreds of people in the world, and before Yelu Abaoji built the city, the Khitan people did not believe that the houses and palaces in the Central Plains could be so huge and brilliant. Yelu Abaoji in the west building of the Dingdu, Daxing the city, after the establishment of the Khitan State, he still retains the system of the four times to make a bowl, to get to the bottom of it, the current Khitan State, although there are some cities, but Mo said that it is comparable to the Central Plains, that is, even Lu Long can not compare, the Khitan State at this time, in nature, is still a nomadic khanate. Therefore, the place where Yelu Abaoji, the former Khitan king and Khan, and today's emperor is located, is also where the Khitan court is located, and the scale of its royal tent is comparable to a military camp and a small tribe.

Jeongju.

In the dark night, the vast night sky overhead and the ten-mile company camp at the foot form two sea of stars, the center of the Khitan camp, the lights of the king's tent in the depths are brightly lit, and the stars hold the moon and contrast with each other.

Yelu Abaoji, who was sable and furious, sat casually on a tiger skin royal chair large enough to accommodate five people, with a ruddy face, a pair of old feet stepped on the dazzling golden basin, and two peerless beauty in light shirts and white skin sat on their knees in front of the imperial chair, bowing their eyebrows and bowing their heads and cautious, bathing the feet of their great emperor. The hot water vapor curls like smoke, and the two beauties like water are more and more delicate, more charming than the water hibiscus, and more beautiful than the fire peony, which is wonderful. Yelu Abaoji, who was comfortable, was interested, and the wrinkled instep hooked a beautiful girl's smooth and silky jaw, and Meiji immediately let out a fox-like snort, which made Yelu Abaoji's old eyes suddenly have affection and desire to move.

Without waiting for the old tree of Yelu Abaoji to sprout, a waiter stepped forward to report: Han Yanhui asked to see.

Yelu Abaoji frowned slightly, suppressing the desire surging in his heart, but he didn't let the two Meiji withdraw, "Pass him to see him." ”

Although Han Yanhui has a very close relationship with Yelu Abaoji's monarchs and ministers, he will not come to disturb him after nightfall for no reason, and the only important thing that can make Han Yanhui meet at night is the current progress of the war.

After Han Yanhui saw the salute, he went straight to the point and said: "The day before yesterday, when the Youzhou army moved from Shuangtong, Yitai, and Jiuyang to Hezhou, Da Ming'an was separated from Li Congjing on the way, and sneaked back to Shangjing. Fortunately, thanks to the emperor's sage and strategizing, our army has now surrounded Xijing, and the battle situation in Zhengzhou, Hengzhou, and Bofang is also progressing quite smoothly. It's just that the result is not clear for a while, so it is careless, and if Da Ming'an leads the army to support at this time, I am afraid it will not be conducive to the development of the war situation. ”

The two Meiji muscles were condensed, weak and boneless, and the comfort coming from their feet made Yelu Abaoji look comfortable, and he snorted contemptuously when he heard it, "Since last year, when we sent troops to Bohai and attacked Fuzhou, our Great Khitan Army has triumphed all the way, and the Bohai Navy can only retreat one after another. Those nobles in the Bohai Sea who only know how to compete for power and profit, and are blinded by selfish desires, have long lost the courage to dare to use swords and guns with our Great Khitan, and under the authority of our army, they are silent one by one, and all they want is to protect themselves. It's just that the Youzhou Army has been constantly stirring up the situation in the past two months, which has made those stupid people who are not as good as pigs and dogs have a little more confidence before they dare to think about struggling again. ”

"In their eyes, they hope that Daming'an can let the Bohai Sea survive more than to destroy the country and destroy the species, so that their interests can be more protected." Han Yanhui's face was worried, and he hesitated: "In this way, Da Ming'an is now in the Bohai Kingdom, is it an irresistible trend?" ”

"Not really." Yelu Abaoji's words changed, "Da Ming'an is now in power, whether it is power, prestige, or fame, no one can match it, and it is close to the great writer; However, it is necessary to prepare for war, but it is also suspected of promoting henchmen, holding authority, and eliminating dissidents. If this is the case, Aiqing thinks that the big writer will not be jealous and suspicious, and the nobles of Shangjing will not be blushing and have gaps? Don't look at Daming'an, who is now thriving, and the people who are preparing for the war in Beijing are boiling, but in fact, it is just destined to be a flash in the pan! ”

Han Yanhui was a little surprised, "The death of the country is imminent, and the great writer and the nobles of Shangjing are so ignorant of current affairs?" Even if you want to rectify Daming'an, you can't wait for the post-war? ”

The contempt in Yelu Abaoji's eyes was even stronger, with a momentum overlooking the ants, "But if there is still a trace of wisdom in the great writer and the lord of Bohai, Bohai Yan will die today!" What is the sign of the destruction of the country, and what is the sign of great prosperity? Those who are masters are incompetent, addicted to pleasures, do not distinguish between loyalty and treachery, do not think about the people, do not think about society, make the virtuous live in the humble room, make the mediocre steal the high position, make the gentleman depressed, and make the villain show off his might; Those who are ministers are consumed by the desire for profit, fill their pockets, and only care about fighting for power and profit, and cannot advise and seek the country from above, and everything they do is their own selfishness, and they cannot be for the country and the people, and when it is advantageous, they will rush to be the first, and when they are damaged, they will retreat, and their own interests will be slightly violated, and they will be like wolves and tigers, eager to eat people and drink blood - this is the elephant of the country! This is exactly the case in the Bohai Kingdom, where can they wait until after the war for these people who are blinded by interests and desires, and once they reach the post-war period, they will not give them another chance if they have mastered the authority through the war, especially Da Ming'an, who has mastered the army. ”

Silent for a while, Han Yanhui felt something, "The image of the death of the Bohai Sea, the sign of the great prosperity of the Khitan, there is no need to say more, this war, in fact, has been doomed from the beginning." Those who vainly try to use their mantis arms as a car are nothing more than moths to the fire and bring about their own destruction! ”

Mei Ji washed the feet of Yelu Abaoji, and then hugged it to his chest and wiped it, they don't understand the general trend of the world, and they don't know what the rise and fall is, they only know that the emperor in front of them is the god who dominates everything, and there is no room for error in front of him.

Feeling the soft touch of his toes, Yelu Abaoji's eyes were full of intoxication, and he said to Han Yanhui: "I have my own arrangements in Beijing, and Da Ming'an, a vertical man, can't stir up the overall situation. At present, the critical place is the battle situation in Zhengzhou, Hengzhou, and Boyang. ”

Han Yanhui bowed and said: "The day before yesterday, our army lured Xijing reinforcements in Belvedere, but unfortunately the Youzhou army saw through it, and it fled to the Tongshui River Valley. ”

"The battle situation in the Tongshui Valley is nothing more than whose reinforcements arrive first." Yelu Abaoji showed a little smile in his eyes, "In terms of rushing to support, there is no shortcut at all, how could my Great Khitan elite cavalry fall behind the Youzhou army, just now I got the latest report, I have tens of thousands of elite cavalry, have rushed to the Tongshui River Valley, joined the battlefield, and the reinforcements of the Youzhou army have not yet been seen." ”

Breathing a sigh of relief, Han Yanhui said sincerely: "In this way, the overall situation has been decided." ”

Yelu Abaoji nodded proudly and said, "Indeed." He laughed and added: "Li Congjing, this kid, can jump up and down, and can make me pause the pace of attacking the Bohai Sea, he is proud enough!" ”

Han Yanhui didn't say much, and thought in his heart: Li Congjing does have some ability, but it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, after all, the disparity between the two sides is too great, and he can still rely on the few people to be flexible and take advantage of loopholes, but when it comes to the decisive victory, he really can't make any waves

The Khitan company camp is brightly lit for dozens of miles, and the Zhengzhou city on the opposite side, except for the lights and shadows of the city, the city is almost pitch black, and the firelight and lights on the city wall are connected into a huge and thin circle, and the darkness in the circle is bottomless, like a black hole. This scene is in stark contrast to the outside of the city.

As the chief general of the town guarding Zhengzhou, Daming Xing has not been under the city wall for many days, since he led reinforcements from Xijing to help, the battle lasted less than half a month, but Daming Xing had to ask Xijing for help again. He fought against the Khitan in Fuzhou, and he was more able to predict the development of the situation by relying on the battlefield situation.

Looking at the city where Daming Xing is located, the two seas of stars in front of the city spread at the end of the line of sight and converged on the horizon. With more than 100,000 Khitan troops, the main force is all here, and Da Ming Xing knows that no matter what, he will not be able to resist the pace of Yelu Abaoji.

"How's the battle going in the Tongshui Valley?" Da Ming Xing asked the cronies beside him in a deep voice.

"No news yet." The cronie whispered.

Da Ming Xing snorted and said no more. Zhengzhou has long been surrounded by the Khitan army, and if you want to get in touch with Xijing in the rear, you need to break through the siege, which becomes extremely difficult when the Khitan army gathers troops to intercept Xijing reinforcements in the Belvedere and Tongshui River Valleys, and it is not surprising that you cannot get news from the rear. Of course, this also means that the crisis in Zhengzhou is getting worse.

The cronies hesitated for a moment, but still gritted their teeth and asked, "General, how long can Zhengzhou be defended?" ”

Da Ming Xing didn't answer, he wasn't asking himself the same question in his heart. However, it is not difficult to answer this question, it is just a little too cruel. At present, there are only two situations, if the Xijing reinforcements can arrive in time, the battle of Zhengzhou can still continue for a while, otherwise, Daming Xing knows that the city of Zhengzhou will be broken in these few days.

After being silent for a long time, Da Ming Xing slowly spoke: "As a general of Fuyu, the city of Fuzhou was broken last year, and the general should no longer survive in the world, but when His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince was on the side, he would have the responsibility of guarding" took a deep breath, and a painful color flashed deep into the bone marrow in his eyes, "It has been several months since the Khitan thieves entered the country, and the Bohai Navy cannot control it, so that half of the country has fallen into the hands of thieves, and the three armies are like lost dogs, and they fled here in panic, if it were not for General Li to lead the Tang Army to help, I am afraid that the situation has already been out of control, and this general is a general of the Bohai Navy, It's really shameless to face the king and His Royal Highness the fourth prince. ”

The military aircraft of the Bohai State was corrupted, and the lieutenant generals and colonels of the army had already blinded the wealth and profits, and the combat effectiveness was low, as Yelu Abaoji said, it was the mediocre and the villain who stole the high position, if it were not so, it would not be after Fuzhou was defeated, and other places would have almost no strength to fight. Before the Khitan entered the country, Daming Xing was entrusted with an important task by Daming An to guard the country and Fuzhou, which can be described as a high power, because Daming Xing was already one of the few good generals in the Bohai State. However, even so, Da Ming Xing has hardly achieved any results.

Da Ming Xing's sight was not in the dark night, even if it can't be said to be out of the mud and not stained, at least it can be regarded as a veteran with a pure heart, the old and upright body wrapped in armor, just like his voice is tragic and decisive, "The king's division is to aid my Zhengzhou, and he is trapped by the thief army in the Tongshui River Valley, and the situation is indescribable, but my Zhengzhou defenders and Bohai Navy civilians are not without a person who is willing to live and die with the ancestral territory!" If we are fighting for the country, we must let the Khitan thieves know that there are still people in the Bohai Kingdom who are willing to die for the country! ”

"General"

Da Ming Xing waved his hand and interrupted his cronies' words, "General Li told the Khitan thieves to block in the Tongshui River Valley, and they can't support Zhengzhou for a while, but I can't sit still." You go and choose a thousand elite horsemen, three thousand elite soldiers, and after an hour, you will go out of the city with Ben! ”

"General, what are you going to do" The cronies were stunned, and just wanted to say that it was difficult to defend the city at the moment, where could they still take the initiative to attack?

"The Khitan thieves have been attacking the city for a long time, and seeing that we are weak in defending the city, they naturally didn't expect us to take the initiative to attack. And if Zhengzhou City wants to defend for a longer time, it also needs to boost morale, blindly defending and not attacking, it is a dead ear! Da Ming Xing Dao, his eyes were blazing, "Act quickly, and you will naturally be able to return to the city safely." His hand was on the damaged city wall, "I have to let Yelu Abaoji know that here, I, Daming Xing and Bo Navy, are his enemies!" In this world, there is no opponent who is only beaten and does not fight back! ”

The cronies didn't say anything anymore, and clenched their fists in promise.

At this time, Da Ming Xing didn't know that tonight's move was not a temporary idea, but it was definitely a sudden enough move, and how much impact it would have on the current war.

It is only because of this action that he has achieved another and greater action.
