Chapter 167: Gains and Losses

Yelu Yarigo walked into Yelu Yu's capital mansion in Xijing with the determination to die, but he didn't see Yelu Yu's face, but was led to the study in the backyard, and it was his sister Yu Liyan who greeted them.

Although there were many questions, Yu Liyan didn't talk to them much, just said that an old man wanted to see them and asked who it was, but Yu Liyan didn't tell him, and the brothers and sisters walked into the study, only a man and a woman waited for each other.

"How could it be you?" As soon as King Ye Luding saw the people in the house, he jumped up like a cat with its tail stepped on, and even the appearance of Aguta here would not cause such a reaction.

"His Royal Highness King Liang, after many years, do you still remember it?" Zhao Ta ignored the shocked Yeluding, but bowed to Yeluyali beside him.

"I can't remember that," Jeruiari looked at the smiling man in front of him, but couldn't remember when or where he had seen it.

"Your Highness, do you remember the shooting in Bianjing back then?" Zhao Ta reminded him when he looked confused.

"But His Royal Highness Prince Song Yan?" When Jeruiari was reminded, he immediately remembered the past of his defeat.

"Hehe, it seems that His Highness still remembers the events of the past!" Zhao said with a smile.

"Yu Liyan, how could he be the prince of the Great Song Dynasty in Xijing, my Great Liao, what is your intention in leading us to meet him?" But Jerodin couldn't help himself, and questioned his sister.

"Isn't he the second son of Zhao in Youzhou?" Yu Liyan's surprise was not much less than that of the two elder brothers, and he said puzzledly.

"He is the despicable and shameless Prince Song Yan, what Youzhou Zhao Er. It's all fake! Jerodin shouted angrily.

"His Royal Highness King Qin, why be angry. We were just our own masters in Lingzhou City back then, so why bother to be angry! Zhao Ta turned his face and smiled at Ye Luding and said.

"Jerod's recklessness. Did he rebel against Liao and surrender to the Song Dynasty? Ye Luding saw Zhao Ta's smile, goosebumps straightened up on his body, this person is a smiling tiger, but he was exhausted of his pickled anger back then.

"The three princes, please sit down, the army will arrive a little later!" Zhao Xin stepped forward at this time and asked them to sit down.

"Are you..."Ye Luding couldn't help but take another step back, although this person had changed his outfit, he could vaguely distinguish the appearance of the past, he pointed at Zhao Xin and asked.

"Little girl Yuanzhou Xiao Chongxin!" Zhao Xin said with a salute to his 'fiancé'.

"Huh?!" Ye Luding was surprised, this was ten times more than the surprise brought by seeing Prince Yan. If the woman in front of her hadn't been stolen, she would have become her own princess by now.

"Hehe, since they are all old people, you don't need to be polite, I would like to invite you to come here today, there is a big event to tell!" Zhao Ta smiled and made a gesture of please.

"I want to hear about it!" Yelu sat down angrily and said, Yelu Yali didn't know what grievances the two had, but his impression of Zhao Ta in his early years was good, and Yelu Ning was even more confused by the second monk. Sitting down with her brothers, Yu Liyan sat down next to Zhao Xin, her face was also full of doubts, and she couldn't figure out the reason. But my heart is not at peace.

"This king has just received news that the emperor of your country has been captured by the Jin army and is being escorted to Shangjing. The Jurchen Emperor has announced to the world that the Liao State is dead! Zhao Ta took a sip of tea. Said slowly.

"Huh?!" Several people were stunned.

Their performance was already expected by Zhao Ta, which was why he hurriedly transferred troops into Xijing to end the conflict between various forces. told the story of Yelu Yanxi's defeat and capture...

Yelu Dashi, who was defeated and captured, took advantage of the chaos to flee back and found Yelu Yanxi, who had just captured several states, was on the rise, preparing to continue to develop eastward and capture Yanjing, but was resolutely opposed by Yelu Dashi and tried to dissuade him. He believes that when the Jin army captured Tokyo in the past, His Majesty fled to Zhongjing, and after the Jin army captured Zhongjing, His Majesty fled to Nanjing, and then ran all the way to Xijing, and hid in Jiashan after the most Lu, when the army was still strong, His Majesty did not seek war preparations, and lost the great rivers and mountains to the Jin State in vain. Now that the country has reached such a point, His Majesty wants to start a war with the Jin State in turn, isn't it self-defeating!

Yelu Dashi believes that it is time to recharge his energy and not act rashly. This was originally a very pragmatic suggestion, but how could Yelu Yanxi, who had just played up, listen to it, and insisted on taking advantage of the opportunity of Zong Han and Zong Wang to go back to the funeral to continue to use troops, intending to regain the lost territory. Yelu Dashi's persuasion was ineffective, and he couldn't help but be disheartened, so he left the Liao camp with 200 iron horsemen overnight and went on his own journey.

Later, Yelu Dashi led the 200 iron horsemen, crossed the desert Gobi, advanced all the way to the west, and finally gained a firm foothold in Central Asia, establishing a powerful country from Hami in the east, the Aral Sea in the west, the upper reaches of the Yenisei River in the north, and the Amu Darya River in the south, successfully ending the situation of division and dispute in Central Asia.

A regime, when the number of qi is not reached, can always be stronger. But when the qi is counted, it is like the inside of a big tree withered and rotten, and it is vulnerable. After Yelu Dashi left, Yelu Yanxi set off from Jiashan and went straight to Xijing Datong Mansion to kill, at first he really won a few battles and captured some territory, but before he could meet the main force of the Jin army led by Yan Zonggan in Xijing, it was a fiasco.

Yelu Yanxi fled back to Jiashan in disarray, and the troops that were easily gathered were also defeated. At this point, Yelu Yanxi can be said to have lost all the pants, and he has lost any chance to turn the book, but at this time, he received a handwritten letter from Emperor Zhao Ji of the Song Dynasty...

What's going on here?

After Tong Guan returned to the throne, of course he wanted to do something to repay the grace of heaven, he commanded the war far less than Ah Guda, and even Zong Han, Zong Wang and others, but recruiting and surrendering rebels is indeed a specialty, and they used this trick to deal with Western Xia at the beginning, making them suspicious of each other and killing each other. When cleaning up the Liao Kingdom, he used this trick to recruit Guo Yaoshi. And Guo Yaoshi did give him a long face, and captured Xiao Gan, who had killed the famous Song Dynasty general Liu Yanqing, who lost his armor.

With a successful precedent, Tong Guan planned a bigger plan, he suggested that Zhao Ji recruit Yelu Yanxi, the exiled monarch of the Liao State, which was big enough! But Zhao Ji listened, he wrote a letter to Yelu Yanxi, hoping that he would come to the Great Song Dynasty, he had prepared a thousand big houses for him, three hundred beauties, just waiting for him to enjoy, and gave him the treatment of the deputy position of the highest national leader, and his status was still above his own brothers!

What reliable things can two unreliable people do!

Yelu Yanxi, who was already at the end of his rope, must have been overjoyed after borrowing the letter, saying that he would never refuse his good intentions and promised to go immediately. But after a few days, Yelu Yanxi understood something again, and felt that the Liao Kingdom was dying, and the Great Song Dynasty was still far away? At that time, the Great Song Dynasty itself could not be protected, and maybe they would sacrifice themselves to the Jurchens, after all, they had a criminal record, so they dispelled the idea of taking refuge in the Song Dynasty, and fled back to Yinshan with a few remnants of his defeated soldiers.

And when the letter was delivered, the Great Song Dynasty didn't know where Yelu Yanxi was hidden, so he sent several people to find it, and one of the messengers fell into the hands of the Jurchens and was delivered to Wanyan Zonghan. Zong Han was furious, and immediately sent someone to Da Song to ask for an explanation, and declared: Is it tolerable or unbearable, if you don't give me an explanation, I will give you an explanation.

Zhao Ji resolutely denied that he had ever written a letter to Yelu Yanxi, this must have been a counter-plot carried out by the Liao-in-exile government, they forged the letter, it was an attempt to destroy our relationship, if you believe it, you are a fool, and the matter is all on Yelu Yanxi. If Yelu Yanxi knew at this time, how glad he would have been that he didn't believe in that person who was less reliable than himself!

When Yelu Yanxi returned to Jiashan, his entourage was no more than 4,000 households, and the guards were less than 10,000 foot cavalry, but he still couldn't fall to the ground. His concubines had been captured by the Jin State at this time, so they occupied the wife of Brother Yan of the Tulu Bububu, but only gave Brother Yan the title of the envoy of the Ministry of Festivals, which made all the entourages dissatisfied, and their morale was even lower, and they were on the verge of collapse.

It is said that there are many friends and many roads, and just when Yelu Yanxi was desperate, Shu Helun, the chief of the party, sent people over and asked Emperor Tianzuo to take refuge in their realm. Yelu Yanxi did not refuse this time, and prepared to cross the border through the Tiande army, but bad luck still accompanied him, and he ran into the Jin army not far away, and most of his troops were captured, leaving only him and Taibao Xiao Zhonggong and other more than ten horsemen still with him.

When they arrived at the territory of the Tiande Army, it caught up with the heavy snowfall, and at this time there were no items to protect against the cold, and there was no food to wrap around, so when they were hungry, they could only gnaw on the ice and snow to satisfy their hunger, and when they were sleepy, they leaned on the body of the guards and squinted for a while. On the way, a farmer took them in. Yelu Yanxi also thought about it at this moment, and after the most Lu exercised his authority once, he made this farmer a festival envoy and continued to the east.

One day at the end of the month, it was already late, and Yelu Yanxi, who was hungry and cold, really couldn't walk, so he sent his men out to find food, and he leaned against a big tree to nap. , but suddenly only heard the shouting of horses and horses around him, a noisy sound, Yelu Yanxi, who suddenly woke up, found that he could not escape this time, so he had to be captured.

After Yelu Yanxi was captured, Wanyan Lou personally escorted him back to China, Wu Qimai did not kill him, and demoted Emperor Tianzuo as the king of the seashore...

With the capture of Yelu Yanxi, it marked the demise of the main body of the Liao State! For the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty, it can be described as a mixed blessing. The worry is that after the demise of the Liao State, a more powerful, more murderous and more ambitious country has completely taken the place of the Liao State!

After Zhao Ta finished speaking, the hall immediately became silent, the emperor is dead, there are two roads in front of them, and where to go depends on their thoughts... (To be continued.) )
