"This matter must be planned carefully, otherwise with Yelu Hongji's suspicious nature, where would he be willing to take such a risk?" Yelu Chongyuan sighed heavily, he had already felt the pain of the civil and military exchanges with the Manchu Dynasty in the past. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Yelu Nerugu held his own martial arts and said: "What's so difficult about that, Yelu Hongji likes to hunt the most on weekdays, if we plant an ambush in the hunting ground in advance, and coerce the Son of Heaven to force him to pass on the throne, won't the throne be in hand?" ”

Yelu Chongyuan didn't expect that this straw bale son would actually know how to start planning big things. This is the so-called wise man must have a mistake in a thousand thoughts, and a fool must have a thousand thoughts. It's just that when Yelu Chongyuan was hunting, he always had to bring the royal tent to ride, although there were only a few more than a thousand people. But this kind of combat power, if you use Yelu Chongyuan's tens of thousands of tribal warriors to fill it, it may not be able to hurt a single hair of Yelu Hongji. In addition, Yelu Hongji's hunting place is different every time, and he almost has to gallop through the grassland within a hundred miles of Linhuang Mansion, and it is not easy to ambush in advance!

What made Yelu Chongyuan even more jealous was that in front of the fully armored royal tent horsemen, the warriors of his tribe were like a group of beggars holding wooden poles and kitchen knives fighting an enemy armed to the teeth. Even if there are a large number of people, they may not necessarily have the upper hand. What's more, the royal tent's own cavalry is fierce in combat and often trained, how can they be matched by a rabble?

Yelu Chongyuan shook his head with a wry smile and put this proposal behind him. If this can be done, there will really be ghosts. Counting on this, it is better to discuss Yelu Hongji's abdication of the throne.

Hearing that Yelu Chongyuan rejected this proposal again, Yelu Nerugu's face was very ugly, he thought he was smart, but he was repeatedly denied in front of Yelu Chongyuan. How could he stand it! With self-esteem in trouble, Yelu Nerugu held back his strength and was determined to succeed in showing Yelu Chongyuan. Of course, it was his own plan, but he didn't reveal it to Yelu Chongyuan at all.

And at this moment, in the palace of the emperor, Yelu Hongji was upset and irritable by what happened in the city, and even the early dynasty was unstable, and after Yelu Chongyuan waved his sleeves away, he dispersed the early dynasty and declared Yelu Yixin into the Ming King Tower.

After Yelu Yixin entered the Ming King Tower, Yelu Hongji only sighed. Yelu Yixin waited on the sidelines, not daring to ask out loud.

Yelu Hongji was annoyed that it was about to be late autumn. As soon as late autumn arrives, the first snow should fall on the grasslands. This year, due to the agreement with Dashun, I didn't go to Grass Valley. may also be frightened by Dashun's soaring combat power, Yelu Hongji can't afford to have the slightest intention of violating Dashun. Fortunately, the opening of the mutual market will not prevent the entire Daliao from falling into a predicament this winter. And as the Khitans gradually changed from a complete nomadic people to a semi-agricultural and semi-nomadic country, their self-sufficiency increased, and this life was passable.

And if you want to go south to fight the grass valley, you are becoming more and more powerless. There were a lot of looted materials before, but now the border farmers know the urine nature of the Khitans, and before autumn, they hurriedly harvested the unripe wheat in the field, and then moved their families into the city for refuge. Only one empty house was left, and it was difficult to loot. If you want to make a big gain, you must attack the city. But the Khitans are all cavalry, and the Han army is afraid of death, and in the face of the high and deep city, the Khitan people can only look at the city and sigh.

In the east, there was a rebellion among the daughters, and in the west there was a rebellion among the tribes. The foundation on which the Liao State relied to maintain its rule was being leveraged little by little. And the Khitan nobles of the Manchu Dynasty were infected with the vices of the Han people, they only liked to read some poetry and books, and their mouths were full of crepe words, not to mention others, even Yelu Hongji's own queen Xiao Guanyin was the same, and she was still a master of this way.

They are proud of the Xi and Han cultures, but they have forgotten what the Khitans relied on to build the world. Seeing that the warriors of various tribes suffered more or less losses on the battlefield, even the Jurchen tribe, which was inferior to the beggars, almost couldn't beat it, and they didn't know how to reflect. Thinking of this, Yelu Hongji felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart. Although he is the emperor of Liao, he is powerless to really command the entire Liao army. The aristocratic princely army is the oldest armed force of the Liao State, and its predecessor is actually the private armed forces of the nobles of the Khitan tribes before unification. The Khitan have the same traditions as other nomadic peoples. Each tribe, from the chief to the chief, has its own independent armed forces, which are actually private tribes. In order to reduce resistance in the process of unifying the Khitan tribe, Liao Taizu Yelu Abaoji did not eliminate all these old nobles. Instead, it adopted a strategic differentiation of fighting and pulling, especially in order to win the support of the Khitan upper nobles and stabilize people's hearts, Yelu Abaoji completely retained the tradition of the nobles having private arms. These nobles all owned their own domains, cattle and horses, and people. As a result of this, many nobles, especially the princes of the two major tribes of the most prominent Khitan royal family, the Yelu clan and the Hou Xiao clan, had a large number of private armies. These armaments were entirely owned by the nobles themselves, and the soldiers were mainly drawn from their own tribes and even slaves.

In the event of a war between the Liao state and other countries, the emperor would issue a conscription order to the princes and nobles. The aristocracy, on the other hand, was obliged to send troops or personally lead them into battle. Moreover, not only did they provide their own soldiers, such as horses, armor, weapons, and rations. In the event of a battle injury or death, the Emperor will give appropriate financial compensation. The nobles, especially those who personally led the troops, had the right of first refusal to plunder during the war, and the right of choice for the spoils of war such as treasures or slaves after the war.

The consequence of this is that powerful nobles often rebel. It wasn't until there was a strange woman Xiao Sui in the Liao State that large-scale reforms began, the focus of which was to attack and weaken the private forces of the kings. Such a fatal move naturally sparked a fierce resistance from the kings. Xiao Xuan pulled a part of this to suppress and divide and rule, which weakened the power of the kings to a large extent, and also established the emperor's personal soldiers such as the imperial tent and personal cavalry. However, her reform was not thorough, Xiao Xuan only temporarily suppressed the forces of the kings, but did not completely force the reform. The consequence is that after her death, the kings of Liao have revived, and they are even more unscrupulous than before. The imperial uncle Yelu Chongyuan is an example, but Yelu Hongji, who has always known that Yelu Chongyuan is a straw bag, does not think that Yelu Chongyuan, who has been half-cut into the loess, will rebel. Because he is too familiar with this imperial uncle, he is inferior to Adou.

Yelu Hongji thought a lot for a while, but forgot that there was Yelu Yixin by his side. When he came back to his senses, he found that Yelu Yixin had been kneeling and waiting for a long time. Yelu Hongji looked at his confidant minister, and was a little apologetic for a while, and after letting him get up, he reproached: "You too, you don't say anything when you come." I thought I was the only one! ”

Yelu Yixin said respectfully: "Your Majesty is a great talent, and he has a lot of thoughts, and the minister does not dare to disturb him. ”

After hearing too much about this sycophant, Yelu Hongji also gained immunity and said, "Okay, don't talk so much. I summoned you just to tell you not to fight with the imperial uncle anymore. Both of you are my great ministers, and the loss of any of you is like losing my right hand. ”
