Chapter 340: Changes in Mobei (1)

Visitors from Xizhou are self-evident.

Yu Yin knew very well in his heart that the so-called visitors from Xizhou must be envoys from Xiliao. In a flash, another year has passed, and after a year of recuperation, Xiliao's vitality is gradually recovering. Backed by the Western Xia, coupled with the resumption of the trade routes in the Western Regions, the situation in Western Liao is constantly improving, and those people of Daliao who wander in Mobei are also slowly gathering in Xizhou.

The first year of Jingkang, the second year of the Mandate of Heaven in Western Liao.

The population of Western Liao is nearly 2 million, and it is showing an upward trend.

In June of the first year of Jingkang, the Western Liao took the second room of the second chamber and Luduo as the left deputy marshal, and broke through the Ya'er and the troops approached the green ridge.

The Black Khanate panicked, and while shrinking its forces, it stationed heavy troops in the Barasyan and Uzgen regions; On the one hand, he sued for peace with Western Liao, and sent envoys to Western Xia and Khorezm, hoping that the two countries could come forward to prevent Western Liao from continuing to expand westward.

In August, Khorezm's envoys arrived at the Northern Court and persuaded Western Liao to stop using troops.

At that time, he was the prime minister of Western Liao, and he also knew that the capture of Green Ridge was also the limit of Western Liao.

After all, Yelu Yu Liyan's eyes have been staring at Mobei...... She dreamed of entering Mobei and retaking Kedun City.

If it continues westward, it is likely to anger Khorezm.

If the Black Khanate is broken, even if Western Liao wins, it will be a miserable victory, and when the time comes, Khorezm and Huangtou Huifu will be cheaper.

Therefore, the bones were half-pushed and half-pushed, and agreed to withdraw the troops.

It's just that those areas that have been occupied by Western Liao cannot be returned to the Black Khanate. After repeated discussions, the two sides decided to use the two tributaries of the Tarim River as the boundary, one side of which is south of Shule. While looking at the north in the crows...... Each side withdrew its troops and established a buffer zone between the two tributaries, allowing free trade, but not stationing troops and horses.

Khorezm naturally agreed.

There is no return of the tribes in the Western Regions, who has seized the territory. That's who's it.

Originally, Western Liao had already occupied the area south of Shule, but now it was willing to return to Ya'er. Enough face for Khorezm. Whether the Black Khanate wanted to or not, he had to face the reality of his homeland. was taken by Xiliao for one-third, and he must be grateful to Dade. At the same time, with the cooperation of Western Liao, Western Xia defeated the Huangtou Hui and greatly increased its strength. In this way, the two countries of Western Liao and Western Xia cooperated with each other and gradually became the hegemon of the west.

Although Yu Yin did not pay much attention to the west, he had some understanding of the expansion of Western Liao.

Especially during the Battle of Kaifeng, the Western Liao troops entered the Muna Pass. It really restrained part of the Jurchen forces. It is precisely for this reason that the pressure on Taiyuan is much lighter than in history. The battle of Taiyuan was tragic and abnormal, but the vitality was not injured. Wanyan Zonghan finally had to retreat to Xijing Datong. It is also the fear of losing too much.

In this situation, Xiliao suddenly sent people to Yanshan Mansion, and its purpose was very obvious.

Yu Yin is not the Wen Qing who has just been reborn and doesn't understand anything. After several years of experience, he also understood many things. Yelu Yuli's thoughts of leaving Mobei have never been broken. At this time, a messenger was sent. Could it be that he intends to go out of Mobei? If Xiliao can kill Muna Mountain, the situation in the entire northwest will inevitably change dramatically...... Yu Yin has been waiting for this day for a long time, and presumably this time is ripe.

"Xiliao, who is the envoy?"

When Gao Pet heard this, he couldn't help but show a little embarrassment.

"The envoy of Western Liao, who is quite related to Lang Jun, is the husband of Taiyuan."

Taiyuan husband?

Yu Yin was stunned for a moment, and then nodded.

Husband Ren is an important chess piece of Xiliao in Taiyuan, and it should be Yu Liyan who shows his attitude to let Husband Ren appear at this time.

Although we have grievances with the Great Song Dynasty, we are not hostile!

My enemy is the Jurchens, so don't worry, we will pose a threat to the Great Song Dynasty. …,

Ren's husband has a very high status in Xiliao, and he is also very mysterious.

Now, since he has come to the forefront, it also means that Yu Liyan wants to take back the secret stake against the Great Song Dynasty...... Yu Yin thought about it and stood up.

"My husband has helped me a lot, and I can't be lazy.

Thirteen Lang led the way, and I will go to see him...... By the way, Ren's husband's news should not be known, so as not to cause trouble. ”

Gao Pet smiled: "Brother, don't worry, you can save yourself!" ”

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

The highly favored horse army camp is independent of the prince's pro-army camp.

When Yu Yin arrived at Gao Pet's camp, he found that the entire Ma army camp was already heavily guarded.

He Yuanqing was personally on duty and looked extremely serious. When Yu Yin arrived, he hurriedly stepped forward and said softly: "Brother, that person is in the military tent of the thirteenth brother." ”

The entire Ma army has reached 1,600 people.

After arriving in Yanjing, the breeder was equipped with enough horses for Yuyin, and the horse army was expanded.

However, the horse army was 1,600 men, and the miscellaneous soldiers were nearly 3,000. These miscellaneous soldiers were not warriors, but were mainly responsible for raising horses and maintaining the weapons and armor of the cavalry. It seems that this kind of miscellaneous soldiers occupy the majority of the prince's army. The prince's army now has as many as 10,000 people, but in fact, if you count the miscellaneous soldiers, it is close to 20,000. However, the training of miscellaneous soldiers is no worse than that of regular soldiers. In the event of a war, these miscellaneous soldiers can also pick up weapons and quickly replenish the troops.

Redundant?

The prince is pro-army, there is no redundancy!

Yu Yin met Ren's husband in Gao Pet's tent.

This is also the first time that Yuyin and Ren's husband have met since Taiyuan.

Compared with last time, Ren's husband looks a lot older. He is in Taiyuan, but he is responsible for the logistics of the entire Xizhou. Especially at the beginning of the establishment of Western Liao, Ren's husband worked harder to raise grain, grass, military salaries and various materials for Western Liao.

Yu Liyan was able to gain a firm foothold in Xizhou, and her husband contributed a lot.

Although he was a eunuch, Yu Yin didn't dare to slack off......

Ren's husband's real name is Renzhong, and when he saw Yuyin, he was also full of emotion.

At the beginning, when Yu Yin followed Yu Liyan north to Kedun City, he didn't particularly agree. But now it seems. It is indeed Yu Liyan who is prescient. It is precisely because of the appearance of Yuyin that there is the emergence of Western Liao. Therefore, Ren Zhong saw Yu Yin again, and he was also very respectful. Anyway, Yu Yin still holds the title of the king of the Western Liaonan Courtyard now.

"Ren Gong, it's been hard all the way."

"The Jade King is polite, this old slave's business."

The two finished greetings. The guests are seated.

He Yuanqing and Gao Zhong consciously withdrew from the military tent and guarded outside the tent.

"Your Majesty misses the Jade King a lot, and this time the old slave came. His Majesty also specially told the old slave to greet the king on her behalf. ”

In his mind, Yu Liyan's sassy and heroic posture unconsciously appeared.

Yu Yin was in a trance. After a while, he asked, "How are the swallows now?" ”

If you change people, you will have to scold if you can't say anything. But sitting in front of him was Yu Yin, and the emotional entanglement between him and Yu Liyan was also very clear. The title of swallow, except for Yu Yin, no one dares to use it.

is Yu Liyan, who has no objection to the title of Yuyin.

"Your Majesty is very good, but he is just working on state affairs, and it is a little hard."

A woman. But it is necessary to support the future of the Liao people. The hardships in it can also be imagined by Yu Yin.

It's just that this is Yu Liyan's choice, and Yuyin can't say too much. After a moment of silence, he spoke again: "I don't know if Ren Gong is here." What do you have for advice? ”

Ren Zhong stared at Yu Yin for a long time, and suddenly smiled bitterly.

"To be honest, the old slave does not agree with His Majesty's decision.

But His Majesty said that this matter required the king's consent, and if not, she would rather live in Xizhou for the rest of her life. ”…,

"Huh?"

"Your Majesty. It is intended to go north out of Muna Mountain. ”

Yu Yin frowned, and said in his heart: Sure enough.

He had already guessed the answer, but he couldn't understand why Yu Liyan wanted to ask him for help? He is now in Yanjing, under the jurisdiction of the Marshal of Hebei Soldiers and Horses, and he is also sent by the Hebei East Road to pacify the envoys. In the Great Song Dynasty, he was just an insignificant little person. Even if he is very much respected by the prince, he has no right to speak in the court. If Yu Liyan wants to get the help of the Great Song Dynasty, Yu Yin doesn't seem to be able to give much help.

His eyes flickered, and Yu Yin stared at him.

"Ren Gong, please continue."

"Hehe, I know that the king has doubts, but His Majesty said that if she wants to go north out of Mu Na Mountain, she doesn't need the consent of the old Zhao official's family.

As long as the king nods, Mobei can be in the hands of Western Liao. ”

Yu Yin smiled.

"Swallows must be looking too highly of me."

Ren Zhong didn't laugh, and said in a deep voice: "At first, the old slave also thought so, but His Majesty said something that made the old slave change his mind. ”

"What did the swallow say?"

"Your Majesty said that the success of the north out of Muna Mountain will be decided by the king."

Yu Yin is confused!

Yu Liyan must think too highly of him...... Whether the North Out of Mu Nashan succeeds or not, is between his choices? Yu Yin didn't realize that he still had such a great ability. But after Ren Zhong said this, he closed his mouth and said no more.

Yu Yin was confused, and some couldn't figure it out.

He hesitated for a moment, and said softly: "Then the swallow has said, how do you want me to choose?" ”

"This ...... His Majesty did not confess. ”

Yu Yin became more and more confused...... What kind of medicine is Yu Liyan selling in this gourd? After chatting with Ren Zhong for a while, seeing that it was getting late, Yuyin got up to say goodbye.

"Ren Gong is resting here, if there is anything, send Xiao Yi and Thirteen Lang."

After saying that, he walked out of the military tent and went straight to the pro-army camp.

The responsibility is heavy in the Ma army camp, but it is very safe.

Gao Zhong and Ren Zhong have dealt with each other, and when Yu Yin got Bai Shizhong's million Guan Birthday Gang, it was handled by Ren Zhong. The relationship between the two is very close, and He Yuanqing is Yuyin's confidant. It can be said that the entire Ma Jun is Yuyin's people, and there is no need to worry about having eyes and ears for details. Yu Yin returned to the military tent in confusion, and before he could sit down, he asked people to find Rhodes.

Rod also recognizes the heavy responsibility!

After all, he lives in Taiyuan and has dealings with Ren Zhong.

At the beginning, Gao Zhong was looking for Renzhong, and Rod also contributed to it, so he was also very clear about the origin of Renzhong.

Since Yu Yin is determined to use Rhodes as his assistant, he can also trust him.

Therefore, he did not hide it from Rhodes, but told Ren Zhong's words again, and asked puzzledly: "Da Lang, what do you mean by this swallow?" ”

Hearing this, Rhodes was stunned for a moment, and then laughed a moment later.

"Lang Jun, in fact, the queen has already made her mind clear."

"Oh?"

"Lang Jun thinks that when Western Liaobei enters Mobei, what is he most worried about?"

Yu Yin thought for a moment and said softly: "Naturally, it was the Jin soldiers who obstructed it...... The Jurchens are in Mobei and have their own strength. If Yanzi leads his troops northward, it will inevitably affect the interests of the thieves in Mobei, and he will definitely not sit idly by and watch Xiliao seize Mobei. ”

"That's it!"

Rod said with a smile: "Western Xia is now occupying Huangtou Hui, and its strength has increased greatly.

The captives suffered heavy losses due to the battle of Kaifeng...... In the long run, it was unlikely that the Western Xia would be afraid of the captives anymore, but if they had the courage to resist the captives, it was unlikely. Therefore, Western Liao will not stop the northward advance, but it will not be blatantly supported. Even, they have the intention of letting Xiliao test the thief, and they will secretly help. ”

Yu Yin nodded and said, "It's indeed possible." ”…,

Therefore, Xiliao has no worries.

But the problem is that even if the thieves are newly defeated, in comparison, the Western Liao forces are slightly insufficient.

If you want to fight hard, I'm afraid there is no benefit...... The meaning of the Queen of Western Liao is to hope that Lang Jun will come forward and contain the thieves in Yanjing. The forces of the thieves are now concentrated in Fengshengzhou, and once there is something in the north of the desert, they will definitely send troops to rescue.

However, if Lang Jun can contain the thieves, the Queen of Western Liao will have a lot less trouble when she captures Mobei.

That's what Queen Xiliao meant...... With the current strength of Western Liao, even if it is an alliance with the official family, it may not be able to succeed. The queen also knows this, so she doesn't ask for an alliance, but only that Lang Jun can contain the thieves. ”

Contain the Jurchen forces?

Yuyin fell into deep thought......

"Is it possible?"

"If it's done well, it's doable."

"Da Lang, come quickly."

Rod thought for a moment and said in a deep voice: "The little seed is here, and I think I will be happy to fight with the thieves."

In the previous battle of Kaifeng, he had not yet arrived, and the war was over. But who would have expected that the battle was clearly won, but when the peace talks were held, it was as if the battle had been lost. With the arrogance of a small race, how can this be tolerated? There will be a fire in my heart. ”

"So, the Minor Race Guild agrees?"

Rod smiled and shook his head, "If this is the case, the small race may not have the guts."

After all, he is not the Duke of Chu, nor does he have the prestige of the Duke of Chu. And at present, he is the only one in a high position, holding the military power, so he must be even more cautious. Two months ago, if Lang Jun made this suggestion, the minister of the small species would have hesitated. But now, if Lang Jun told this idea to the little minister, he couldn't say that he would agree with Lang Jun's idea. ”

Yu Yin heard that it was a cloud mountain fog cover, and became more and more confused.

This Rod, who was not happy to speak, went around and bypassed, and said that Yu Yin was confused.

Rhodes said: "Lang Jun, it's not a small race to fight now, I'm afraid it's the official family who also has this idea." ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"Since the Taishang Daojun returned to the capital, the official family has been in trouble.

Although the official family has made great achievements in the battle of Kaifeng, but the Taishang Daojun has been in power for 26 years, how can the official family be compared? In terms of means, the official family is not the opponent of the Taishang Daojun at all. Previously, the official family intended to put Taishang Daojun under house arrest, but there was nothing wrong with it. But once this kind of thing starts, the official family will have no reason, and they can only let Taishang Daojun reappear in the court. As long as the Taishang Daojun appears in the court, it will inevitably cause a huge threat and pressure to the official family......"

Yu Yin listened to the flowers.

"Dalang, be clear."

Rod laughed, "To put it bluntly, the official family hopes to use other things to divert the contradictions in the court."

Confronting the captives is undoubtedly the best means...... It's just that this scale must be grasped, and the small species will gladly accept it. Therefore, Lang Jun can tell Ren's husband that there is no problem in containing the thief. But it can't be too long, and it's the end of October, and the operation will end by mid-December at the latest...... As for the rest, Ren's husband can understand. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
