Chapter 183: The Night Before the Fight
Wang Bian has been away from the capital for so long, and now he finally heard some good news for him, no matter who the generals sent by the imperial court to cooperate with Wang Bian, what Wang Bian has to do now is to let Yelu Hongji wait for Yelu Zongyuan to arrive with peace of mind.
Yelu Zongyuan really came, and in the evening of the next day, Yelu Hongji and the king found that Yelu Zongyuan's soldiers were like ants before the rain and rushed to Taizi Mountain.
The last game of the mid-game battle of the Luanhe Rebellion finally kicked off, and Wang looked at the dense team from far and near, and suddenly felt funny,
How can there be an army of 100,000 in Jin Daxia's "Dragon Babu", this team is pitiful, it is less than half of Yelu Hongxiao's team, it seems that Wang Bi really overestimated Yelu Zongyuan, or Jin Daxia used the huge number of 100,000 troops to set off in order to highlight Xiao Feng's outstanding martial arts image, but it still left some illusions for Wang Be, a Jin fan
The imperial uncle Yelu Zongyuan actually brought less than a thousand troops and rushed to Taizi Mountain, is he crazy?
Yelu Zongyuan is not crazy, as the saying goes, Qin Hui still has three good matches, Yelu Zongyuan wants to rebel, of course, he can't just rely on his father and son, Yelu Zongyuan pretended to be sick and wanted to go back to Liaoyang Mansion in Tokyo, brought dozens of people, just walked halfway, was caught up, and he was chased by the person who reported the news sent by Xiao Hujing, the privy envoy of the Northern Court,
The people who want to usurp power in the world are summed up as nothing more than for the country or for the beauty, of course, there are also both, Xiao Hujing is for a breath, to say that this person is also quite a nest, originally a concubine, married the second daughter of Liao Shengzong Yelu Longxu, Yan Mujin, but unfortunately when this princess married Xiao Hujing, it was already the third marriage,
In the seventh year of the Heavenly Rite Law Yanzuo (1044), in September of the thirteenth year of Liao Chongxi, Liao Xingzong Yelu Zongzhen personally led the Liao State 100,000 troops to crusade against the Western Xia, and the horse Xiao Hu Jing was the generalissimo, when the Western Xia Li Yuanhao led the Western Xia army to meet the Liao ** team at the foot of Helan Mountain, and the Western Xia army was defeated.
Li Yuanhao faked surrender, Liao Xingzong promised to let Yuan Hao repent and reform, the two sides broke the arrow and only swore an oath, this was a good result, however, the two sides had their own ghosts, Xiao Yuma's Liao ** team was ready to sneak attack the Western Xia army, Yuan Hao also wanted to take advantage of the Liao army's retreat to attack the Liao army, as a result, the Liao army was defeated, Xiao Huliang, the Liao Dynasty's attached horse captain, was captured, and finally the horse was exchanged prisoners of war between the Liaoxia and Xia sides before they were able to negotiate peace and return to Liao.
Xiao Huliang then called for compensation for his wife and broke his soldiers, was captured and taken prisoner, and was kicked by the princess after he came back, since then he has no future, and he mixed a lot of age to get mixed with the privy envoy, Xiao Hujing's breath was suffocated, and he recorded all his dissatisfaction on Yelu Zongyuan and Yelu Hongji father and son,
Xiao Huliang thought about it, if he went on in the court like this, there would be no future in this life, when he knew Yelu Zongyuan's recruitment and self-respect, he had long wanted to go all the way with the imperial uncle, if the imperial uncle Yelu Zongyuan succeeded, he would be able to turn over.
But how to make the imperial uncle believe in himself, the privy envoy also has the advantage of being a privy envoy, Yelu Zongyuan set off to return to Tokyo Liaoyang Mansion, Xiao Hujing learned that the imperial court had sent someone to take over the Bohai Navy, so he hurriedly sent someone to the imperial uncle Yelu Zongyuan to send a letter: Don't go back to Liaoyang Mansion, and then he sent a second secret letter to the imperial uncle: The emperor only took 200 personal soldiers to the Rehe enclosure,
Xiao Hujing waited for Yelu Zongyuan to kill in the paddock, but something happened in Dading Mansion, Queen Xiao Guanyin angrily scolded Princess Yan for death, Yelu Hongxiao took two thousand divine warriors to go straight to the Rehe paddock, and then Xiao Huliang couldn't sit still, so he brought only a few hundred soldiers who could be brought out by his privy envoy to meet with the emperor's uncle Yelu Zongyuan.
Standing next to the king of the prince's mountain, these situations naturally don't know, looking at the hundreds of soldiers next to the king, I was a little disappointed, but thinking that the Liao State lost a lot in this battle of Luanhe, and it would naturally be smoother for me to borrow troops, of course, the king didn't know, Xiao Hujing and the emperor's uncle Yelu Zongyuan took such a few soldiers, and dreamed that they could catch the emperor and launch a mutiny.
As soon as Xiao Hujing saw the imperial uncle, he couldn't suppress the sadness in his heart, and said to the imperial uncle in a choked voice: "The faint monarch did nothing, and secretly cut the military power of the imperial uncle, this kind of villainous behavior is really unbearable." ”
Yelu Zongyuan was moved by his sincerity, and he comforted Xiao Hujing: "Xiao Shu's envoy doesn't have to worry, I can still organize some troops along the way, and Zhongjing Dading Mansion and my son Yelu Hongxiao's two thousand divine warriors will respond." ”
Xiao Hujing hurriedly said: "Uncle Huang, Empress Xiao Guanyin has already executed Princess Yan while you are not in Dading Mansion, and General Yelu Hongxiao took two thousand divine warriors to the Rehe enclosure to take Yelu Hongji's head. ”
"Ahh This can make Yelu Zongyuan a little caught off guard, thinking of the tragic death of his beloved concubine, Yelu Zongyuan was distressed, and heard that his son led the troops to the Rehe paddock, and the situation was unclear for a while.
Xiao Huliang leaned in and whispered: "Uncle Huang, this time the emperor went to the Rehe enclosure to hunt, and only brought 200 personal guards, don't be sad about Princess Yan's affairs, if you don't rush to Rehe now, then your imperial uncle may become the emperor." ”
Yelu Zongyuan of course understood what Xiao Huliang meant, and there were a few soldiers along the way, plus Xiao Hujing's hundreds of people, let's make it up and not enough for a thousand, the imperial uncle was full of hope to take over the big seal of the Liao royal family, he took his son Yelu Hongxiao's army in front, how could he never have imagined that Yelu Hongxiao's two thousand divine warriors had been destroyed,
When he was about to arrive at the enclosure palace, Yelu Zongyuan received a report from the front, Yelu Hongxiao was defeated, and the people were also captured.
This is to take my son to worship the ancestors, Yelu Zongyuan was in a hurry, and kept killing to Taizi Mountain for a while, and it was already dusk at the bottom of the mountain, Xiao Huliang stopped Yelu Zongyuan, who was still rushing to the mountain: "Uncle Huang, don't be reckless." ”
"Hey, Privy Envoy Xiao, let's rush up in one go, take Yelu Hongji and save my son." Yelu Zongyuan pointed to the mountain, he really wanted to rush up now, the throne of the Great Liao Kingdom seemed to be beckoning to him,
Xiao Hujing shook his head: "Don't fight at night, Uncle Huang, think about it, General Yelu Hongxiao's two thousand divine warriors have been defeated, I don't know what ambush Yelu Hongji has, let's rush up now to figure out the situation, it's better to wait for dawn to make a decision." ”
What Xiao Hujing said seemed to make sense, Yelu Zongyuan ordered people to go to investigate, and after a while, the people sent there came back to report, there are more than a dozen camps near the mountain, and the number of camps is estimated to be one or two hundred troops, Yelu Zongyuan sneered: "Little monkey cub, I will take you down tomorrow", he immediately set up camp to prevent the sneak attack of the mountain people at night,
It was dark, Yelu Zongyuan could not rest well this night, he looked at the Prince Mountain from time to time, it was okay not to look at it, the more he looked, the more strange it became, on the boulder at the height of the Prince Mountain, the fire could be faintly seen, Yelu Zongyuan called Xiao Hujing, pointed to the direction of the two boulders on the Prince Mountain and asked: "Yelu Hongji, this kid, what tricks are you playing?" Look at the fire in that high place. ”
Xiao Hujing also looked strange: "Uncle Huangtai, aren't those two boulders on the mountain, why is there a wildfire on the top of the rocks, I think it must be a good omen." ”
Yelu Zongyuan said with a smile: "This boulder is more than ten zhang, and the surrounding cliffs are not successful, if someone can go up and light a fire, it is a good omen, and our army will definitely win tomorrow." ”
He couldn't imagine that the fire was really lit by a person, and he ordered to light a bonfire, Yelu Hongji also wondered: "Wang Xianren, you said that this imperial uncle, why didn't he rush up when he got to the bottom of the mountain, let's still make a fire to illuminate him, it's a pity not to rush." ”
The king drank wine beside him, looked at the dozens of camps of Yelu Zongyuan at the bottom of the mountain and said: "We thought that it was to illuminate him, but he didn't dare to go up the mountain, which is a bit like encountering a wolf and lighting a fire to scare the wolf." ”
Yelu Hongji pouted: "Our chess, it's not a good game, this chess has to be fun when the opponent meets the opponent, I knew that it was so fun to sit on this boulder and watch the battle, so I didn't stop Yelu Zongyuan from going back to transfer troops." ”
Wang Bei laughed when he heard this: "Then how can it be done, those Bohai Navy are what I want to use." ”
Yelu Hongji also laughed: "I think, the imperial uncle rebelled, and you also have a share." ”
Wang Bian knew that Yelu Hongji was joking, these days the two of them get along, more admiration for each other, although Wang Bian and Yelu Hongji do not swear brothers, but talk a lot more casually, listening to Yelu Hongji say this, Wang Bian asked: "Why is this?" ”
Yelu Hongji wrenched his fingers and said: "You see that you know Yelu Zongyuan's premeditation, and you also know that the thorn bamboo is against you, and you also know the location of the rebellion, it's hard to imagine that if you are not an immortal, you will only know if you have a part in it." ”
Wang Bei laughed: "Holy Lord, if I want to participate in the rebellion of Yelu Zongyuan, why do I still want to repair such a big thing as this tafei." ”
Yelu Hongji said drunkenly: "Then why did you order to keep the lives of Yelu Hongxiao and Yelu Zongyuan." "Don't look at Yelu Hongji who listens to the king about everything, this matter is a little strange for him, but today he saw that Yelu Zongyuan's soldiers had arrived here, so he asked,
Wang looked at Yelu Zongyuan's camp and said lightly: "I was entrusted by Master Qisong to find something in the temple that may have been stolen by this father and son. ”
"Okay, brother honest, come, I'll toast you." After that, Yelu Hongji drank it all, Yelu Hongji drank the wine very well this night, he looked at the soldiers brought by Yelu Zongyuan, and his heart was more steady, tomorrow he solved Yelu Zongyuan, and they could go down the mountain,
Don't look at the freshness when he first got on this stone, he stayed for seven or eight days, even if there was wine and meat, he was bored after staying for a long time, and even the king himself felt bored eating and drinking every day.
Early the next morning, Yelu Zongyuan and Wang Bei, who were still asleep, were woken up by the sound of shouting killing, Wang Bi rubbed his eyes, looked at Yelu Zongyuan's soldiers of less than 1,000 people, holding knives and guns and shouting to kill, and ran to the mountain, laughing in his heart: These stupid hats,
