In the desert, Yelu Hongji's Erudo, Yelu Hongji was feasting with his ministers.

For Yelu Hongji, this period of bad luck was unlucky, and the Liao State first suffered a big defeat in Xiongzhou, and then lost the New Year's coin. However, Yelu Hongji still endured it, and returned to the desert from Youzhou to prepare for the hot summer, and then returned to Youzhou.

The Khitan people are hardy of cold and heat, and when it comes to summer, they will come to the desert to escape the heat. Summer vacation is to have fun, there will not be too many state affairs, and it is said that the child has a relaxed life, in addition to hunting, it is to feast and drink with the ministers.

After eating and drinking for a while, Yelu Hongji became a little drunk, and the ministers talked more, and some ministers began to scold: "Hmph! The southerners are hateful and annoying, especially that Wu Ji, who ruined the good things of Da Liao! ”

"This Wu Ji first relieved the siege of Xiongzhou, and then robbed the New Year's coin, and slapped Da Liao hard, which is really not a thing. If it weren't for the big picture, I would have unscrewed his dog's head. ”

"The southerners have been tame for more than a hundred years, and this Wu Ji is the most undesirable thing, and he has repeatedly spoiled the good things of Daliao."

"Speaking of the southerners, they are like lambs, cowardly as mice, and they will flee when they see the warriors of Da Liao. Even one Wu Ji can't become a big deal, and sooner or later there will be a day of destruction. Don't talk about him, don't disturb our wine. ”

"When you sing about wine, life is geometric, it's better to say something happy."

Yelu Hongji waved his right hand, and the ministers stopped talking, looked at him, and waited for him to speak. Yelu Hongji glanced at the ministers and said, "When you drink here, don't talk about the displeasure, say something happy." Although this Wu Ji has caused some trouble to Da Liao, he will not be able to become a climate, and he will be destroyed sooner or later, so let him live a few more days first. ”

He picked up his glass and said, "Dry!" ”

"!" The ministers raised their glasses and drank them all up, so happy.

"Wow!" Yelu Hongji put down the wine glass with a smile, and continued: "It's good to have someone like Wu Ji, otherwise, a group of wolves and a group of sheep will be too uninteresting." ”

"Haha!" The ministers let out a burst of rampant laughter: "The warriors of Da Liao are wolves, and the southerners are sheep!" ”

"I promise you that Wu Ji will not die a good death!" Yelu Hongji's drunkenness came up, and he talked more: "It is impossible for him to destroy the good things of Da Liao again." ”

At this moment, a cronie walked in quickly, with a look of fear on his face, he had to endure it, saluted Yelu Hongji, and said, "Your Majesty, Laishui's horse farm has been attacked by the Southern Dynasty." ”

"Haha!" Yelu Hongji was a little drunk, but he didn't understand too much, and couldn't help laughing. As soon as he laughed, he immediately reacted: "What are you talking about?" Laishui's horse farm was attacked by the Southern Dynasty? Is this possible? ”

"Laishui Racecourse is hundreds of miles away from the Song Realm, do the southerners have that courage?"

"The southerners are as timid as rats, how dare you enter the territory of Daliao, it must be you who are lazy and lie about the military situation."

If you want to rob the Laishui Horse Farm, you have to go deep into the Liao Realm, which is a fantasy for the ministers who have always regarded the Song Dynasty as timid as a mouse, and they would rather believe that the sun comes out of the west than believe that the Song Dynasty will attack the Laishui Horse Farm.

"Your Majesty, Wu Ji attacked the horse farm in Laishui." Another cronie came in to report it.

Yelu Hongji was excited, and the wine also woke up, and his shrewd side was shown, his eyes rolled, and he was shining: "Is this true? ”

"Your Majesty, after Wu Ji attacked the horse farm, he divided his troops and attacked the twelve military camps of Daliao, killing thousands of Daliao warriors, and capturing tens of thousands of Daliao war horses, countless grains and grass, and retreated." Another cronie came in to report it.

"What do you say? Raided twelve barracks, not counting the horse farm? Yelu Hongji stood up violently, and he was very angry, very fierce, and angry, roaring like thunder, staring at a few cronies.

"Nonsense! Do you think that Wu Ji is three heads and six arms, and dares to attack twelve military camps. The ministers also did not believe it, and rebuked.

Yelu Hongji waved his right hand to stop the ministers from scolding and asked, "Why don't you report it early?" ”

"Your Majesty, it wasn't until Wu Ji returned to the Song Realm that Da Liao found out. This Wu Ji is haunting, and people can't guard against it. The cronie lowered his voice and replied cautiously.

Wu Ji attacked so many military camps of the Liao army, and they all returned to the Song realm, and the Liao State realized that this was really an afterthought, which made people angry, Yelu Hongji yelled: "You are all pigs!" I've raised you pigs! Come on, push it out and cut it! ”

He was obviously angry, but under his anger, no one dared to plead, and could only watch as the leather room army escorted a few cronies out. A few cronies were frightened, and they could only beg for mercy.

"Come back!" Yelu Hongji is Yelu Hongji, and although he was in a state of anger, he still suppressed his anger and spared these people, asking them to explain the situation.

These people were half frightened to death, so they had to explain the situation in detail, and how far they ran under the scolding of Yelu Hongji.

"What do you think?" After Yelu Hongji understood the situation, he did not express his opinion immediately, but looked at the ministers and asked them to express their opinions.

"Your Majesty, this is not a big deal." A Khitan minister stood up and spoke out loudly: "Although twelve military camps were attacked, they were very small military camps, and they were nothing at all. ”

"Yes! Your Majesty, the southerners are timid, and once in a while they are bold, it's nothing, so you don't have to take it to heart. "Another Khitan minister doesn't care.

"These twelve military camps, with a small garrison of three or two hundred people, and a large number of six or seven hundred, are caught off guard, and they are taken advantage of by the southerners, so there is no need to be surprised." A Hanchen spoke.

Yelu Hongji frowned, and let the minister express his opinion, but he didn't say anything, until no minister spoke, then he looked at Han Ju and asked, "Han Ju, tell me." ”

Han Ju just drank by himself and did not participate in the discussion, and when he heard this, he said: "Your Majesty, this matter is not trivial, it can be said that there is a mortal threat to Da Liao!" ”

"Han Ju, don't be alarmist! How can a mere matter pose a fatal threat to Daliao? ”

"Don't just open your mouth and talk nonsense after you are a famous minister. Although Lord Han is an important minister of Da Liao, it is not you. ”

Han Ju's words are too shocking, how can the ministers believe it. If it is attacked once, it can be a mortal threat to the Liao State, then hell.

"Let him finish his sentence." Yelu Hongji waved his hand, and the ministers didn't dare to shout anymore: "Han Ju, you go on." ”

"Your Majesty, Laishui's horse farm, twelve military camps, are all in the territory of Da Liao, hundreds of miles away from the Song realm, Wu Ji attacked not to mention, until he returned to the Song realm, Da Liao found out, what does this mean?" Han Ju began with a rhetorical question, and then analyzed: "This illustrates several problems: First, the Conversion Army is equipped with war horses, which come and go like the wind, and are extremely fast. Otherwise, even if Wu Ji was given ten dares, he would not dare to come to the territory of Daliao to be presumptuous. ”

Without war horses, there is no strong ability to maneuver, and no one dares to come to adventure.

"What the emperor knows, the army of the Southern Dynasty has many infantry and few cavalry, such an army is unique." Han Ju continued: "Second, the combat power of the Conversion Army is very strong. If the combat power of the Conversion Army is not strong enough, it will be destroyed, Wu Ji dared to lead the Conversion Army to plunder, it is because the Conversion Army has strong combat power. This has been proved during the robbery of the New Year's coin, and the leather room army of Da Liao cannot defeat the conversion army. ”

The leather room army is the most elite army in the Liao State, and the ministers were not convinced by Han Ju's conclusion, and refuted loudly, which was nothing more than saying that the Guixin army was taken by surprise and the leather room army didn't care.

Han Ju ignored it, then analyzed, and said: "The third is that Wu Ji's news is very accurate, otherwise, he wouldn't be so unaware and didn't find out until he returned to the Song Realm." ”

"You've said so much, I don't see a threat?" Xiao Lu was a little dissatisfied, and asked rhetorically: "The Han people know that Zhang Daqi is alarmist. ”

These words were exactly what the ministers thought, and they echoed in unison. For a while, doubts rang out.

"Shut up!" Yelu Hongji scolded, and the ministers closed their mouths. Yelu Hongji glanced at Xiao Lu and said coldly: "I asked you to be the marshal of the capital and sit in Youzhou, it seems that you don't know anyone." ”

Xiao Lu didn't dare to speak anymore about the future, pursed his mouth, and looked at Han Ju hatefully.

"What Han Ju means is that coming and going like the wind, being extremely fast and powerful, this is exactly the advantage that the Tang army has." Yelu Hongji was shrewd, and he already understood what Han Ju meant, and said, "How strong the Tang army is, I believe you haven't forgotten it, right?" It's hard to accept and heart-wrenching, but I have to say that it was the most painful lesson in the history of Daliao. Wu Zetian sent a brigade to deviate from the division, and almost wiped out Da Liao, and Da Liao had to recuperate for hundreds of years. ”

At the mention of Tang Jun, the ministers gasped and obediently shut up. As Yelu Hongji said, it was the most tragic page in the history of the Khitan, which almost wiped out the Khitan race, who dares to deny the prestige of the Tang Army?

"Since the fall of the Tang Dynasty, the army that swept the world no longer exists. And the Converts Army showed such signs. Yelu Hongji ignored the reaction of the ministers, and continued: "The Tang army comes and goes like the wind, it is extremely fast, and the combat power is strong, and the Returning Army already has such an advantage. Although they are not numerous, they have to be vigilant. ”

After a slight pause, Yelu Hongji was a little amused, and said: "Zhao Ji has always wanted to enrich the country and strengthen the army, and appointed Wang Anshi to change the law, but he has the kindness of a woman, Sima Guang, Lu Gongzhu, and Han Qi are so opposed to the new law, he is so soft. If it were me, I would have killed Sima Guang and them a long time ago. If we don't break it, we don't stand it, and if we don't kill these people, how can we implement the new law? However, the more this is the case, the more beneficial it is to Da Liao, because over the years, I have sent people to say good things about Sima Guang and them, and Zhao Ji actually listened to it. ”

Speaking of this, I couldn't help but snort: "The new law is struggling and unsustainable, if at this time, Wu Ji makes a lot of noise at the border pass, it will make Sima Guang and others no longer able to oppose the new law, and the new law is likely to be successfully implemented." The southerners are as timid as rats, and they are pressed and beaten by Da Liao, but you can't be arrogant and think that the Southern Dynasty is useless. On the contrary, there are more mouths in the south than in Da Liao, and the skills of the Southern Dynasty are better than those in Da Liao. ”

"Han Ju is not wrong, Wu Ji has penetrated into the realm of Great Liao this time, and there is a mortal threat to Great Liao!" Yeluhongki's voice suddenly turned high, as if it had exploded like thunder.
