In the Liucheng Taishou Mansion, Li Chongjiu summoned the chiefs of the Ding Ling tribe attached to Liaoxi County together and held a banquet to entertain them. After Ding Ling's tribal chiefs were invited, they all obeyed, and more than a dozen tribal chiefs all attended. The Ding Ling departments in western Liaoning also have a history, and the origin should also start from Wuhu Chaohua.

In that year, Ding Lingren Zhai Liao established the emperor in Hebei, and the country name was Great Wei, and later generations were called Zhai Wei.

Zhai Wei was supported by the Qinghe Cui clan at that time, such as Cui Hong, a famous minister of the Northern Wei Dynasty in later generations, and Cui Xiao, who were all ministers of Zhai Wei at the beginning. It was only later that Zhai Wei was destroyed by Liu Jiaozhi and Murong Chui. Zhai Wei's Ding Ling tribe of hundreds of thousands, was killed by Xianbei Murong in one go, and the surviving people of Ding Ling who moved to the Central Plains after the collapse of the country moved to Liaodong. Among them, many Ding Ling people in Liaoxi County are descendants of Zhai Wei.

Now in Liaoxi County, the Ding Ling tribes have long since lost their prosperity when they first moved into the Han land, and they have almost degenerated to the barbaric era of knotting ropes and slash-and-burn farming. Each of them lived on their own, but only one of them was very good by the sea, and they could boil salt for food. And the patriarch of this tribe, claiming to be a Han named Cui Xu, said that his ancestor was a descendant of Zhai Liao, the emperor of Cui Wei.

During the banquet, Li Chongjiu opened the trade of salt, iron, and cloth as a condition, so that the various departments of Ding Ling were integrated into one, and they became a part of the khanate, following the example of the Liaoxi Yao. In addition, the sons of the chiefs of each tribe of Ding Ling, or 300 nobles in the clan, were also selected as Li Chongjiu's pro-army. The elders were skeptical and hesitated to agree. In the end, Cui Xu and several patriarchs came forward to support. Li Chongjiu immediately asked Cui Xu to serve as the commander of the army, as the commander of Ding Lingbu. In this way, the Ding Ling Department in Liaoxi County was also officially included in the Khanate. And the same is true of Liaoxi Yao, who also selected 300 people and selected them to join Li Chongjiu's pro-army.

And Li Chongjiu's pro-army was ordered to be the Wansheng Army, all of whom were brave warriors in the Ding Lingjing Dynasty, and they could choose to start a family in the Han Dynasty, if their father died of illness, they were also eligible to return to the clan to inherit the power of the tribe in the hands of their father, and it was the right of priority inheritance, if the clan did not obey, they could appeal to the Khan Li Chongjiu, and if Li Chongjiu recognized, he could intervene.

After completing this matter, Li Chongjiu knew that he had finally annexed Liaoxi County into his territory.

"Congratulations to Taishou, in one fell swoop, subdued the Yan Ya, Ding Ling and the two clans, so that I have no worries in Liaoxi County." Yang Linfu congratulated Li Chongjiu.

Wen Yanbo pinched his beard and praised: "Taishou, this is the emperor's technique, and the children of the two nobles of Ding Ling and Jin Ya are incorporated into the army, which can not only be hostages, but also add a strong army, which is really killing two birds with one stone." ”

Li Chongjiu smiled and asked: "Liaoxi has been decided, and now only one county in Liaodong remains, Lin Fu, Tongding, and Huaiyuan, how about the surrender of the two towns?" ”

Yang Linfu was a little ashamed and said: "I have returned to the palace, but I haven't heard back." ”

Wen Yanboqi said: "It's been ten days since I went, and there should be a response at this time anyway, why haven't you seen any news for a long time." ”

Li Chongjiu comforted Yang Linfu and said: "It doesn't matter if you don't agree, our army has finished resting, Keri can go to Liaodong, and I want to come to the two cities to go down." Yang Linfu nodded, but his face was full of worry.

Li Chongjiu was just about to fall asleep in the middle of the night, but the guards outside the house told Yang Linfu that he had something important to do. Li Chongjiu immediately summoned Yang Linfu in, and as soon as Yang Linfu saw Li Chongjiu, he said: "Taishou, something big has happened in Liaodong!" ”

The next day, Li Chongjiu arranged for Zhao Youting to lead 1,500 people to guard Liucheng, and he led the mobilization of Ding Ling, Jianya, Xi people, and Cangtou army units, and dispatched 16,000 troops to march along the Bailuoshui (i.e., Daling River) valley avenue, and went straight to Liaodong County.

Along the White Wolf Water, Li Chongjiu saw many mountain valleys along the way, and one or several groups of Khitan cavalry haunted them. Although this is close to the Khitan territory, it is not their grazing land, and it is a bit strange that the Khitan cavalry armed with bows, arrows and swords suddenly appears here. And these Khitan cavalry were even bold, as if they were scouting the number of Li Chongjiu's army, and when they were stationed in the camp with a large army, they actually attacked at night. Li Chongjiu immediately ordered his troops to counterattack and killed dozens of people, which frightened the Khitans.

After that, he went out of the White Wolf Water Valley and came to the foot of Yiwulu Mountain. This Yiwu Lu Mountain is one of the five mountains and five towns. Zhou Lizhong said that Yiwulu Mountain is the town mountain of Youzhou in the north. Yang Jian also built the Beizhen Temple at the foot of the mountain to worship the mountain god. After two days of marching, Li Chongjiu came to the foot of this mountain and entered the territory of Liaodong County, and at this time there were many fewer Khitan cavalry along the road. Li Chongjiu was stationed at the foot of the mountain, and the temple in the temple in Beizhen was shocked to see a large army passing by, and immediately brought several apprentices to the barracks to see Li Chongjiu.

The Beizhen Temple was built by the emperor to worship the mountain gods, so the temple was also sent by the imperial court. If the emperor is such a famous mountain through the five mountains and four desecrations, he must sacrifice according to the rites. When this temple zhu heard that it was Li Chongjiu, a traitorous general, he was stunned. Li Chongjiu comforted him with kind words and was given ten sheep to the temple. The temple blessed with a thousand thanks and accepted Li Chongjiu's offering.

The next day, Li Chongjiu's army arrived at Huaiyuan Town, and as soon as the army arrived, Huaiyuan Town immediately opened all four gates. The town general led the 800 defenders in the town to surrender together.

The town general said to Li Chongjiu: "Five or six days ago, this town was besieged by 30,000 Goguryeo troops, and I thought it would not be supported, but after a day of fierce fighting, the Goguryeo army retreated. ”

"The last general is grateful for the help of the people in the city, otherwise after the city is broken, the lives of the people in the city will not be guaranteed." What the town general said was true, three expeditions to Liao, Sui and Goguryeo both sides formed a deep hatred.

Li Chongjiu asked the general, "Didn't you say that Goguryeo has been sending troops to Baekje?" Why did he suddenly cross the Liaoshui invasion to the west. ”

The town general said: "The last general is not very early in the morning, I heard that Goguryeo is divided into five parts, half a year ago the old thief chief in the west was killed in battle, and his son ascended the throne, this person is ambitious, has sent troops to cross the south bank to provoke many times. This time he led a large army to attack Liaodong, I am afraid it was also premeditated. Li Chongjiu's eyes narrowed slightly, as soon as he hit Liaoxi County, the Goguryeo people came to join in the fun and clean up Liaodong County, obviously taking advantage of the fire to rob and want to snatch food from their mouths.

Everyone knows that Liaodong County was the frontier of the Great Sui expedition to Liao, and there must be a lot of military food leftovers.

"Is there any news from Tongding Town?"

"Since Goguryeo sent troops ten days ago, Tongding Town has lost contact with this town."

Li Chongjiu's heart sank, thinking that Tongdingzhen must be more auspicious, so he nodded and said: "Okay, immediately send troops to Tongdingzhen!" ”
