Chapter Seventy-Four: The First Encounter
Kedun City?
Jerus was silent!
Although he was disgusted in his heart, a voice kept echoing in his mind: What this Southern Barbarian said was right, what he said was right.
Yu Liyan did not speak again, but sat down slowly.
After a long time, she said softly: "Fourth brother, it's up to you to decide where to go."
The lives of our people are not important, the important thing is our Great Liao Guozuo, just in your thoughts, you can decide. ”
This woman is not simple!
has been in contact with Yu Liyan for so long, and Yu Yin knows her more or less.
This woman is ambitious and calculating...... Don't look at what she said just now, it seems that she is respecting Yelu Xi Nilie, but in fact, she is adding pressure to Yelu Xi Nilie. On one side is Tianzuo Emperor Yelu Yanxi, Yelu Xi's father; On the other side, it is the national glory of Daliao that has lasted for 200 years. What are the trade-offs? Yelu Xi Nilie was also very difficult.
"Xiao Yi teaches us, do you really want to go to Kedun City?"
Yelu Xi's posture was lower, and he even had a little bit of a sense of asking for advice.
Yu Yin sighed, he really wasn't a decisive person! At this point, Yelu Xi Nilie is far inferior to Yu Liyan.
He didn't know in his heart which was more important?
He even said that he already knew how to make decisions...... But I can't make a decision, so I can only rely on external forces to promote.
Yu Yin thought for a while and said softly: "The Fourth Highness is now converging with Ling Zun, can you share your worries for Ling Zun?" In other words, when the Fourth Highness came to Lingzun's tent, was it sure that he would defeat Yan Lou's room? If not, I advise Your Highness to make a prudent decision. ”
"But ......"
"The Four Highnesses, if Ling Zun can win and recapture Datong Mansion, it means that the Four Highnesses are not there, and they can be recaptured.
But if Ling Zun fails, the Four Highnesses can at least keep the Great Liao Guozuo in Kedun City and recuperate, in order to make a comeback in the future. I know that His Royal Highness is a filial son, but this country is extensive, and which is more important must be clearly distinguished at this moment.
In this way, even if Ling Zun is defeated, he can have a home, isn't it also filial piety for the son of man? ”
These words made Yelu Xi's position moved.
Yu Liyan also said: "Fourth brother, the eldest husband should be decided, and he must not be short-sighted." ”
Yelu Xi Nilie closed his eyes, and suddenly paused for a long time, "Okay, let's go to Kedun City with Yanzi and Xiaoyi." ”
"This is our fourth brother, even if my father knows, he will definitely praise the fourth brother for his decision today."
Yu Liyan stroked her palms and smiled, but Yelu Xi was muddy, but her face was bitter......
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Once you've decided on your itinerary, you'll be able to do the rest.
When Jeruxi Nilie told his entourage about his decision, the reaction of the crowd was calm, and no one objected.
Come to think of it, in their hearts, they don't want to meet with Yelu Yanxi.
But Ren Ren felt a little surprised.
Originally, when everyone set off, they all agreed to go to meet Yelu Yanxi, but they didn't want to change their minds suddenly.
And the person who prompted Yelu Xi Nilie's attitude to change was undoubtedly Yuyin!
This also made Ren Yan's attitude towards Yuyin more cordial in the next few days......
The next day, we set off from the temple.
The town of Ningyuan has become farther and farther away, gradually disappearing into the horizon.
From this moment on, everyone is equivalent to entering the rule of the Jin Kingdom. It used to be the land of Daliao, and it was also extremely prosperous. But now, as far as the eye can see, many villages have been turned into scorched ruins.
At a bend, Yuyin saw a wooden stake.
It had apparently been some time since the stake had nailed a corpse...... It was hot, and the corpses were already decomposing and smelling a thick stench. However, when he walked over, he could still see the pain he had suffered in his life from the brows of the corpse. He was nailed to a stake and then bled to death. The clothes are a little tattered, but they are dressed as Han Chinese. Ren Yan urged him to step forward, glanced at the corpse, and said softly: "It's like a northland man......"
Yanyun Han people!
Yu Yin gritted his teeth and turned his horse away.
"Actually, it's not weird."
"Brother Complaint, how do you say this?"
"Those straight women are ferocious and vicious.
As long as there is some resistance in some places, the slaughter of entire villages, towns, and even entire cities can be regarded as chickens and dogs.
When I was a child, I heard people say that the Liao people were cruel.
But compared to these female straight fans...... Last year, my family was ordered to go to Yingzhou to collect goods, but I saw that Yingzhou was in a depression and there were dead people everywhere. Later, I heard that Zhang Jue returned to the Song Dynasty and fought with Wanyan Zongwang in Yingzhou. After the city was broken, Wanyan Zongwang swept the army and almost killed the Han people in the city...... Because of this incident, his family was dead to the official family, so he obeyed the arrangement of the deed master and followed the four princesses. In any case, these four Taizi are better than those Jurchen fans. ”
The voice of resentment was very small, but it was filled with despair and grief.
Thinking about it, he was also dead to Emperor Huizong, so he was willing to follow the Liao people north.
Yu Yin glanced at Yelu Xi Nilie and the others who were marching in front of him, and could only sigh, reaching out and patting Ren Yan's shoulder.
"Brother Xiaoyi, do you want to stay in Kedun City this time?"
"Huh?"
"Actually, it's good to stay in the city of Kedun, although it is desolate and remote, but you can also have no worries about food and clothing.
Hehe, in fact, I can see that the princess seems to like you a little. You have insight, and your martial arts are extraordinary, so you can show your talent and gain fame if you stay. I can't say that in the future, I can still marry a princess and be a colt. ”
Yu Yin was stunned and turned his head to look at Ren Yan.
But after Ren Yan said this, he urged the horse away, as if he had nothing to do.
What does that mean?
Do you want to keep me?
Is this a matter of resentment to one's own thoughts, or is it ......
Yu Yin sighed and looked forward. In the distance, I only saw the back of Yelu Yu Liyan, bathed in the sunset!
Gently exhaling a breath of turbidity, Yu Yin hesitated for a moment, and then urged the horse to follow.
"Brother Resentful, I have a wife!
Now that I think about it, she is waiting for me to come back at home, how can I abandon her? As for the colt...... Hehe, I never thought about it! When this is over, I will return to Kaifeng. Anyway, that's my home. ”
Ren Yan was stunned for a moment, nodded at Yuyin, and said that he understood!
He didn't say anything more, just walked with Yu Yin urging the horse......
Thinking about what he said just now, he was also instructed by someone. To be honest, Yu Yin also liked Yu Liyan's hearty temperament, but when he thought that Yan Nu was looking forward to him going back at home, and his liking for Yu Liyan immediately faded away.
The wife of the chaff cannot be abandoned, although I am not a character, but I don't disdain to be the likes of Chen Shimei......
No, Chen Shimei in history does not seem to have abandoned his wife and children, let alone been killed by Bao Zheng. It seems that he was a famous minister in the Northern Song Dynasty, don't wronged a good person. Well, anyway, I just don't want to be that ruthless and unrighteous negative man.
Just when Yu Yin was thinking about his thoughts and was a little wandering, there was a sudden commotion in front of him.
In the distance, a horse flew and stopped in front of the horse of Jerusi.
The knight on the horse turned over and dismounted, knelt down on one knee and said, "Four Taizi, I found a straight woman in front." ”
"Huh?"
Yelu Xi was stunned, and his face suddenly showed nervousness.
"How many fanzi? Can you see who is the leader? ”
"The number of people is not too much, that is, the appearance of more than a dozen fans, without a banner, is coming this way."
Yelu Xi Nilie turned his head to look at Yu Liyan, as if he wanted to ask Yu Liyan's opinion.
Yu Liyan didn't answer, but looked around for a while, gritted her teeth and said, "I think it's Fanzi's patrol...... There's only one way here, and if our mounts aren't good, I'm afraid we won't be able to outrun each other. I simply ambushed them here, and I can also share some sorrow for my father, and I can also breathe a bad breath for our brothers who were captured by Fanzi. ”
As she spoke, Yu Liyan took out a black lacquer bow and stared at Yelu Xilie.
Xi Nilie groaned for a moment, nodded and said, "What Yanzi said is right, let's just retreat, I'm afraid we won't be able to outrun their horses."
It just so happens that if we kill these fans and take their horses, we can also increase our foot strength.
Everyone dispersed immediately, and we were responsible for cutting off their retreat, and if you took people with you, you hid on both sides of the road and were responsible for ambushing them...... Xiao Yi, the swallow will be handed over to you to protect, be careful of those fans, they are all barbarians who are not afraid of death. ”
"We don't want anyone to protect us."
Yu Liyan became angry when she heard this, "Our archery skills may not lose to you." ”
"Swallow, don't be verbose again, just follow my arrangement."
Yelu Xi Nilie didn't say anything to Yu Liyan, and as soon as he waved his hand, he led people down to ambush.
Although Yu Liyan was reluctant, she didn't dare to disobey Yelu Xi Nilie too much, so she had to collect the black lacquer bow and hide in the woods by the road with Yuyin.
Yu Yin took off a shield from his horse, then hesitated for a moment before pulling out the Loulan Treasure Knife from his waist.
"What are you doing?"
Yu Liyan looked at Yu Yin and asked.
"If something happens, you can fight for a while."
"How can you fight with such a short knife?"
Yu Liyan looked at the Loulan treasure knife in Yu Yin's hand, and couldn't help but laugh.
After a moment's hesitation, she took out a long pouch from her horse's back, opened it and saw that it contained two large guns.
"Give!"
Yu Liyan took out a big gun and handed it to Yu Yin.
The gun is a common standard Daning pen gun in the Song army, which is named because the gun is shaped like a pen.
The gun was seven feet six inches long, or about 180 centimeters long. It can be seen that it is shorter than the Song Army's Daning pen gun, but it is just right for Yu Liyan to use. A few inches below the head of the spear, there was a small iron disc with a hooked blade on it. When fighting with people, it can prevent the opponent from snatching it with his hands, and it is also one of the nine standard guns in the Northern Song Dynasty army......
However, looking at Yu Liyan like this, she is used to making double guns.
Yu Yin put away the Loulan treasure knife, took one of the rods from Yu Liyan's hand, and weighed it in his hand, but it was only more than ten catties.
This gun is too light!
What's more, Yu Yin can't make a gun, how can this be good?
He hesitated for a moment, and was about to open his mouth to refuse, but Yu Liyan waved his hand, and his pretty face showed a dignified look.
"Don't talk, it's coming!"
For some reason, as soon as Yu Liyan's words came out, Yu Yin suddenly felt an inexplicable nervousness in her heart.
He hesitated, rolled over and dismounted.
With the riding skills he had only learned for more than ten days, it was easier to fight on foot than to fight with people...... Glancing to both sides, Yu Yin put away his shield, picked up his spear and took three steps and made two steps to a big tree on the side of the road.
Yu Liyan was wondering in her heart, and saw that Yu Yin was like a spirit monkey, and climbed the big tree in three or two clicks.
"Xiao Yi, what are you doing?"
Yu Liyan was about to rush forward, but she saw Yu Yin on the big tree waving her hand, and pointed in the direction of the road, and then shrunk into a ball and hid in the branches and leaves.
In the distance, the sound of horses' hooves could be heard.
Yu Liyan didn't dare to delay any longer, so she turned her horse and went to hide behind a big tree...... (To be continued)
