Chapter 735: Domino Effect

The words were divided into two ends, and Yelu Ning Arc summoned all the commanders in the city, talked about the surrender, and took out the letter written by Yelu Hongji, and after some discussion, everyone had no opinion. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

In fact, people are selfish, they may be able to sacrifice for the righteousness of the Liao country, but when Chen Yuan skillfully avoided the mountain of ethnic conflict, there were really not many people who were willing to bury Yelu Gollum.

The next day, Yelu Ning Arc opened the dilapidated city gate of Fengzhou, and came out with more than 4,000 Liao soldiers under his command to accept Xiao Suli's reorganization.

Yelu Ningarc, who was riding on horseback, was full of emotion in his heart, to be honest, after decades of fighting, he never thought that he would surrender to others one day.

Xiao Suli was very polite to him, and helped him up when Yelu Ning Arc was about to get off the horse and bow down: "Don't be like this, the old general has admired the old general for a long time, and now the general can understand the righteousness and stand on our side for the sake of the survival of my Khitan nation, and he should salute the general below!" ”

No matter how he did it, at least it was a high-sounding statement. Yelu Ningarc's heart was really comfortable, for the survival of the Khitan nation, this was really a reason he could accept.

They were obviously ready for the reorganization, the more than 4,000 regular cavalry of the Liao State were disrupted and incorporated into Xiao Suli's original troops, and most of the high-ranking generals were idle, and even said that although Yelu Ning Arc still had the title of a rebellious marshal, his power was greatly limited.

This is expected, Yelu Ning Arc knows that the other party can't rest assured of himself at once. For those high-ranking commanders who were overthrown, Yelu Ning Arc tried to calm their emotions.

However, some commanders at the grassroots level have been promoted, and some have even surpassed their former superiors and become the superiors of the superiors. There are also those soldiers, they were fully supplied at the first time, and some second-line weapons of the Song Dynasty were quickly equipped with these Liao soldiers, as well as food, they were finally able not to worry about food.

What pleased these soldiers the most was that each of them received a salary of one or two pieces of silver. Really, the Liao people rarely paid military salaries before, and since the last defeat of the Liao State, military salaries have become a distant term, and the only advantage of being a soldier is not to starve to death.

All this made the soldiers who surrendered very happy, and the original unhappiness on their faces immediately dissipated, and they all showed longing looks, planning their future lives.

As for the civilians, Xiao Suli set up two porridge sheds in the city, so that they no longer had to dig wild vegetables to satisfy their hunger.

Yelu Ning looked at the long line in front of the porridge shack, looked at the smiles on the faces of those ordinary soldiers or the expectant eyes of the common people when they looked at the steaming cauldron, and couldn't say a word, he just stood by and watched, doing nothing, saying nothing.

I don't know when Xiao Suli walked up to his side and asked softly, "Old general, what do you want?" ”

Only then did Yelu Ning Arc come back to his senses, sighed and said, "Perhaps, you are right. Keeping them alive is more important than anything else. ”

The corners of Xiao Suli's mouth smiled: "I have always thought so." Don't be surprised, general, you and I are two kinds of people, you pursue loyalty, but I just want to live. ”

Yelu Ning nodded: "What are you going to do in the future?" ”

"Later?" Xiao Suli really didn't think about this problem, because he knew that Chen Shimei would help him arrange things in the future, and it was not his turn to worry about it. So for a while, I didn't find the right words to answer.

Yelu Ning Arc had obviously gotten the answer he wanted, and his expression was a little sad: "Is this the end of the Liao Kingdom?" ”

Xiao Suli looked at him, and suddenly said: "Yes, the Liao State is over like this, the Song people promised us to leave a place for our Khitan in the north, but we will be his vassal states in the future, I think our result may be Dali and Goryeo are like this now, perhaps, it is that Dongying." ”

Yelu Ning Arc heard what Xiao Suli said in his heart, and immediately lowered his voice: "Lord Xiao Suli, are you really willing?" ”

Xiao Suli shook his head: "I'm unwilling!" But I can't help it. Now no one can save Liao, and Yelu Negrune can't. You don't see those Song troops, the cavalry that fought with you yesterday was only 50,000 people, and in Zhongjing, they still have more than 100,000 cavalry, all of them are like that, and the emperor of the Song Dynasty is still sending people over! Old general, Yelu Gollu really can't win, and letting him continue to fight will only make us Khitans die more. ”

Yelu Ning arc said: "Aren't you afraid that the Khitan descendants of future generations will scold you? ”

"Scold it, scold it, at least there are children and grandchildren who can live to scold me. Only they can scold me, maybe I am wrong, but only they live to change my mistakes. ”

Yelu Ning Arc looked at him, the eyes of the two people met in the air, and after a while, Ye Lu Ning Arc patted Xiao Suli on the shoulder: "Okay, I know." ”

Needless to say, really, he can now understand Xiao Suli's thoughts, these spineless people may have harmed the Liao State, but they can save the Khitan.

"What about the Song Dynasty army?"

"They are already preparing to fight the reinforcements sent by Yelu Gollu to save you, I heard that this batch of reinforcements has 50,000 people, the general might as well guess, what will they do?"

The corners of Yelu Ning's mouth raised a wry smile: "Do you still need to guess?" The reinforcements are here to save me, and now that I have surrendered, the people of the Song Dynasty will naturally put them on the edge of the city to fight, in that case, maybe these 50,000 brothers will make a choice like mine. ”

He was right.

When the reinforcements of the Liao State rushed all the way to Fengzhou, they thought that they could go to Fengzhou City to rest for a while, but they did not expect that the flag on the city had been changed, and those who were still comrades a few days ago shouted loudly at the head of the city, asking them to put down their weapons and come in to surrender.

This was a very big blow to the morale of the reinforcements. While the general was hesitating whether to withdraw or attack the city, the Song forces cut off their retreat.

Then, there is the set of tricks that used to deal with the Jerry Condensation Arc. When those soldiers saw that their compatriots were living very comfortably, when they saw that even the veteran Yelu Ning Arc was on the other side, and when they saw that those people who were also wearing Khitan clothes always appeared in their field of vision, and their eyes were full of hostility towards them, their original firm minds were shaken.

Why is this happening? Didn't Shangguan say that he was here to save them? Why don't the people of the city welcome themselves? Why are those comrades fighting them now?

The troops who came to the rescue soon fell into a passive situation, the soldiers' mood fluctuations were very large, the city was right, they fought desperately, and the family behind them was always in danger of being starved to death, but these people in front of them let the people of Fengzhou be fed and clothed, and they couldn't figure out who was saving Liao.

Not only were the soldiers confused, but even the generals of the unified army were also wavering, whether to take the troops out of the encirclement of the Song army or accept their conditions? When they think about this question, they are actually doomed to the final outcome.

Fifty thousand people, that is, seven or eight days' work, except for a few tentative breakouts and more than 3,000 casualties in the attack, the rest of the men and horses gave up resistance under the persuasion of Yelu Ningarc, and they turned into a force against Yelu Gollum.

When the news reached Zhongjing, Chen Yuan knew that the overall situation had been decided, and once the dominoes were pushed, it would cause a series of chain reactions, and Yelu Gollum was powerless to return to the sky.

Chen Yuan put the battle report in his hand in front of Di Qing: "What about Brother Di Qing, now Yelu Gollum's troops are only more than 300,000, and the Khitans who are fighting with him are already more than 50,000 people, this number will be more and more, we don't need to make a move, Yelu Gollum will be over." ”

Di Qing really admires Chen Yuan now, and the development of things in Fengzhou can be said to be a fatal blow to Yelu Gollum. His reputation, which had already been slandered by Chen Yuan, was even more blatantly challenged this time.

Xiao Suli has established a political power in Fengzhou, but the troops who went to exterminate Xiao Suli have turned their guns instead, which not only makes those ordinary people begin to doubt Yelu Ne's ability even more, I believe that Yelu Neglu himself is now very hesitant.

Di Qing smiled: "What are you going to do next?" Isn't it time for us to fight? ”

Chen Yuan shook his head busily: "No, the fight is definitely going to be fought." The king also has three good friends, and Yelu Gollum must have a group of people who are loyal to him, and for these people, he will have to fight hard in the end. We are now going to build momentum, as long as the situation of Shawsori and them is better, the more sad it will be for Jerman to grunt. ”

Di Qing said: "Xiao Suli said that some officials in Beijing have begun to run to Fengzhou, and he asked you how to settle these officials?" ”

Chen Yuan immediately stood up from his chair: "Propaganda! Spread the word! It must be known to everyone that Jerune Gollum has now rebelled against her family. ”

"What about their emperor's business?"

This is a big deal for Xiao Suli, the surrender of people and troops is constantly every day, but he can only accept the other party's surrender in the name of one Xiangguo, which gives people a somewhat unjustified feeling.

Xiao Suli asked Chen Yuan to determine this matter immediately, whether the emperor would do it by him, or by Yelu Hongji, or the child in the hands of Yelu Hongji's child, Yelu Niglu, and he would always give an answer.

Chen Yuan thought for a while: "Let's ask Wen Yanbo to call the shots in this matter, whoever does it is the same, I am more inclined to Xiao Suli, but now Wen Yanbo is a privy envoy, if I make a decision for him, I'm afraid something is wrong." ”

Di Qing knew that this was one of Chen Yuan's advantages, he could give people enough respect, even if it was only a matter of face.

Chen Yuan didn't think about this question anymore, got up and pushed open the door, and looked up at the dazzling sunlight in the sky: "Brother Di Qing, let the cavalry brothers go to Liao State to practice, as soon as the matter here is over, we are about to have a big battle!" ”
