Chapter 108: Interlude
According to historical records, Ah Guda has a good life at most, although he is not a small person, but he is not bad, in the case of the Great Song Dynasty playing Laipi several times, he can still stick to the covenant and return Yanjing to the Song Dynasty, of course, he also emptied Yanjing. And now the power of all parties in the Liao State is still relatively strong, and the Krüd army is not yet completely in a 'monopoly' state, and it still needs a scavenger, so Zhao Ta temporarily gave up the plan to assassinate Ah Guta.
Wu Qi, the heir of Aguta, bought this goods is not a good thing, it was he who launched a war against the Song Dynasty after he ascended the throne and robbed half of the Great Song Dynasty. And this person is the brains of A Guta, although he rarely goes on expeditions, but he is indispensable for advice, it is said that his strength is infinite, he can capture and kill the bear and tiger with his bare hands, and the force value is quite high, and he belongs to a dual-purpose talent who has both brains and physical strength.
In front of him, this oblique has always controlled the military power of the Jin State, and is the second heir to the throne, Wu Qimai also made him the crown prince after he ascended the throne, but he did not fight for Wu Qimai, and he did not become the emperor for a day. Zhao Ta thought about subduing him, making him his 'friend', and then helping this friend ascend the throne, he had this 'dragon support', and the emperor would not have to thank him for his benefactor in the future!
But Zhao Ta felt that it was not enough to just be a friend, but also to deepen his feelings, so that he would not be able to live a day without his friend. So when he heard that he was also suffering from a cold, not only diarrhea, but also coughing and sneezing, he specially made a bowl of soup for him and sent it, and at the same time added a plate of incense to relieve the pain of his nasal congestion. Because Zhao Ta knew that some people because of their physique, the bit of morphine in the poppy shell could not be addicted at all, so he could only like to drink soup. But if you want to drink and suck, you can quickly enjoy the feeling of flying!
'Kill a tree' seems like a simple math problem like Tao 1-1=0, but it's not that simple. The example of killing the lord Zhao Ta in ancient times did not know the way, there were too many 'typical' in this regard in the previous life! Iraq, Afghanistan, bin Laden who treated others the way he did things, the white-eyed wolf of his comrades, the friendship of life and death who secretly stabbed him, and Pakistan, which was disturbed by his own cultivated agents... It's just that when the wings are stiff, they bite back.
Therefore, Zhao Ta had to be cautious. Avoid setting up a strong enemy for yourself, and your friend will have a sworn enemy if you don't make it. Another short-lived ghost born with Yan Xianye, an old boy, has been hiccups for a few days after cooperating with him, and it is troublesome to come up with a muddy cucumber egg and make a mess with himself. And in the case that you only control a corner and cannot control all the country's resources, this is a very dangerous game, and if you don't get it right, you will be burned.
Strategic issues should be considered, tactical actions are also very important, how to assassinate Wu Qimai, when to put it into action, how to remedy the failure of the assassination, how to evacuate personnel, and so on. Detailed planning, and now the special operations team of the Loyal Brave Army and the operation team of the Intelligence Division lack experience in urban warfare, and do not have the ability to operate against targets hiding in deep mansion compounds.
Zhao Ta couldn't wait to go to Beijing in person, but he couldn't do without his skills, so he could only retreat behind the scenes to train those elites, strengthen their training, prepare for the action, and at the same time increase the intelligence collection of Wu Qimai, starting from all aspects of his food, housing and transportation. No matter what he ate at night, which woman he slept with, or how many nights he woke up, he had to figure out everything.
………
As time passed, the anxious Jurchens slowly got used to this kind of sojourn life, and left the battlefield without swords and guns. They are more like a group of farmers and herdsmen. Every day, in addition to renovating the camp, it is to catch rabbits and dig pheasant nests within the scope permitted by the Song army, and more often than not. But the days are also comfortable, and even Wan Yanxie, who has been asking questions for the past three days and urging for five days, no longer seems to be in a hurry. I don't bother to listen to Song Jun's cookie-cutter answer - it has been reported to the imperial court!
Wan Yan Xian's body has been good and bad for a while, and the medicine Song Jun gave himself is very effective. After drinking it, it didn't leak immediately, but it seemed that because of the rush on the fire in those days, the root of the disease fell, and as soon as I left the decoction, I didn't eat it well, and I had to drink a bowl every day to eat. It's like this, and I'm still guilty of it, tears, goosebumps, yawning, chills and dizziness, backache and leg pain, arm pain, and there is no place on my body that doesn't hurt, and then it developed to the point where I twitched all over my body.
There was no way but to find the doctor of the Song army, the doctor shook his head and said that there was no help, and he still found a secret recipe to join the army to cure it, and the elixir looked like sheep dung eggs, and after igniting it, it would be fine immediately after taking a few sips, and the price of the elixir was naturally not low. Wan Yan Xian also thought that the body is the capital of the revolution, and if it is more expensive, it will be more expensive, and our Dajin Country is not short of these money, so the amount of white slips laid down these days has increased significantly.
The officials spend a lot of money, and the soldiers are not ambiguous, these remnants of the Jurchens want to open, they should eat, drink, and find happiness and happiness, they have long been singles, and they don't have a life for money, and they will play a white strip after eating and having fun, if no one settles in the future, it is a big deal to surrender to the Song army, I heard that the treatment of those who fled to the north over there is not bad, and the house and land are given.
The current commander of the capital and the pro-army commander Beguru found that the signs were wrong, so he reported the situation to Wan Yan Xianye, but he didn't expect him to be quite generous, wave his hand and let them go! In fact, Wan Yan Xian also understands that his remnants have been defeated, and they have long had no will to fight, and the people are panicked, if they are harsh on them a little more, I am afraid that if they don't kill the master, they will have slipped away a long time ago, and now they can only use 'money' to win people's hearts, otherwise when they can leave, there will be only one brother left!
And Wan Yan Xian also felt that his 'condition' was getting worse, so he started to use an elixir every other day, then once a day, and now at least twice a day, otherwise he would have no energy, and he was sweating profusely, and even the women who 'honored' him under his subordinates were not interested at all. But after absorbing enough elixir, I feel comfortable, I really feel like a fairy, and I can't do without it...
In fact, the imperial edict has already arrived, and everyone is busy attacking Yanjing again to regain lost territory and want to get a piece of the pie. He dragged it out until August, and when he waited for Yan Xian to be really addicted, he was busy with the things at hand, and he was ready to settle the account with Yan Xian when he had spare time.
But there are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and the Liao Emperor Yelu Yanxi, who has been silent for a few days, has come out again, adding more variables to the already confusing situation, this episode disrupted Zhao Ta's original deployment, and he had to postpone the days of settling accounts with Wan Yan Xian, intending to observe the situation and then make a decision.
Yelu Yanxi is a typical burnt bag, just like an upstart, he has to spend him with a lot of fanfare if he has two bad money in his hand. Last year, he sobered up for a while, and figured out that Xiao Fengxian was not a good person and killed him, which made the subjects of Liao State see some hope, and felt that the emperor was still saved, and the situation really improved when the people's hearts calmed down. Most of the towns and cities of the Liao Kingdom have fallen, and the Manchu Kingdom is full of scattered Liao army stragglers, one by one, like headless flies, they cannot find a target of allegiance.
Yelu Yanxi released the news from Jiashan and said: "Anyone who comes to me, no matter who they are, can be granted an official position regardless of the past." "After all, he is the orthodoxy of the Liao State, and since ancient times, he has scolded the traitorous ministers and not the emperor, and the emperor is always good, so in addition to the high-level, who knows the inside story of the road, I heard that the traitor Xiao Fengxian was killed, and the remnants of the wandering defeated generals rushed to the vicinity of Jiashan one after another, and returned to his subordinates, and gathered an army of more than 50,000 people without saying a word, plus there are more than 100,000 troops in the area that are not still in their hands, and there are signs of regaining their prestige.
It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, Ah Guda led the troops to recruit in person, and came to Mandarin Duck on the third day of August. After all, after a game of monarchs and ministers, Ah Guta came to salute first and then soldiers, and sent someone to send a letter to Yelu Yanxi, hoping that he would surrender and that we would stop the army and make peace. Yelu Yanxi was also tired of running, so he agreed, so that there were signs of a truce between the two countries. Ah Guta was a real person, thinking that he had to show his sincerity in the peace talks between the two countries, so he deliberately prepared to exchange the captured relatives of the Liao clan to the Liao State.
Ah Guda didn't expect to do something bad with good intentions, he just wanted to show goodwill, he didn't consider Yelu Yanxi's mood, how can people say that he was also the emperor of the largest country in East Asia. The tiger is in the majestic wind, and the phoenix that has fallen off the frame is not a chicken, Yelu Yanxi believes that Ah Gu is insulting himself, so he led the troops out of Jiashan and went straight to Mandarin Duck from Yinshan East Road, where he is very familiar with it, and he used to walk around every year.
Ah Guda was also angry, it was really shameless, so he personally led 10,000 elite horsemen to meet the battle, and ordered the generals Wanyan Pujianu and Wanyan Han to be the vanguard. What I didn't expect was that Yelu Yanxi, who was about to fight, couldn't get on the wall after all, and when he saw that Ah Guda was really coming, he was the first to coax, although he still had thirty or forty thousand soldiers and horses in his hands, he didn't dare to run away when he saw each other. Wan Yan Han couldn't leave the two of them where to put them, so he immediately led people to chase after them.
Yelu Yanxi is a hardcore outdoor activity enthusiast by current standards, riding horses and hunting outside all the year round, we are not very brave and in good health, leading everyone to run fiercely. This run ran for hundreds of miles, and when he turned around at Shirenyi, he was happy, and turned his head to the people who were out of breath who were running: "Lao Tzu doesn't run, the Jurchens have fallen into my plan to lure the enemy into depth, let's fight with the Jurchens here!" ”
The entourage will take a look, the emperor is wise, let's ambush the Jurchens here! More than 20,000 people immediately swarmed up and surrounded more than 1,000 Jurchens in the middle, preparing to annihilate them in one fell swoop, in order to wash away their shame... (To be continued.) )
