Chapter 498: Li Liangzuo is captured

"Quick! Hurry up, there is the Yan Military Division of Heishui Town in front, as long as we get there, we will be safe! Li Liangzuo, who was on the horse, shouted very excitedly while galloping on his horse, and the remnants of the Western Xia soldiers behind him were also howling very excitedly, during this time they traveled day and night, and finally arrived here.

However, compared to the excitement of Li Liangzuo and those soldiers, Queen Liang, who was following Li Liangzuo, frowned, because she always felt as if she had missed something, and this thing seemed to be very critical, but she couldn't think of it any way through, which made her very distressed.

Li Liangzuo didn't find anything strange about Empress Liang, he now only wants to enter the Yan Army Division of Heishui Town and take over the tens of thousands of troops there, after all, there are only 2,000 remnants left around him during this time, if he encounters the Song army, I am afraid he can only be captured, this feeling of not being able to control his own fate makes him WWW.UUXS.CC, the emperor of Western Xia, feel very uncomfortable, but now he doesn't have to worry about his safety anymore.

It was precisely because of the above that Li Liangzuo was even more excited to ride his horse and gallop wildly, without hesitating to step off the horse's body, and most of the other Western Xia soldiers were like this, after all, what they wanted most now was to have a safe place for them to settle down.

With Li Liangzuo and their wild running, after bypassing a dry wood, a tall cyan city wall finally appeared in front of them, which was the station of the Yan Military Division of Heishui Town, speaking of which was the official name of Western Xia. This name not only represents an administrative region of Western Xia, but also the location of this administrative region, but the name is too awkward. Therefore, most people in the folk prefer to call this place Blackwater City.

The scale of Blackwater City is not too large, at least compared with other big cities in Western Xia, the scale of this city is much smaller, and the scale of the city of the Great Song Dynasty cannot be compared, but the geographical location of Blackwater City is very important, because it is located on the Silk Road, and it is the hub of Mobei and Hexi Corridor. So as early as the Sui Dynasty, a large number of residents had settled here. It was not until after the founding of the Western Xia Dynasty that these residences were moved together, and today's Heishui City was finally formed.

Although the scale of Blackwater City is not large, it is important because of its geographical location. Therefore, a large army was also stationed here. There is a big river next to Blackwater City, which makes the surrounding water and grass abundant, and at the same time, it also makes Blackwater City easy to defend and difficult to attack with the help of the river, and this big river is very deep, which makes the river appear black, so it is named Blackwater River, which is also the origin of the name of Blackwater City.

Seeing that Blackwater City was in front of him, Li Liangzuo and his soldiers were even more frantic in their horses. It seemed that they wanted to put on their wings and fly into the city, but the horses on them were also at their limit at this time, no matter how much the owner of the horse pushed. They really can't speed up, and even some of the horses have been foaming at the mouth, after all, they haven't rested much along the way, and then they are desperately urging the horses, I'm afraid that no matter how good the horse is, it can't stand it, and it is estimated that after entering the city. A large number of these horses had to be scrapped, and at least they could no longer be used as war horses.

With the gallop of the horses. Li Liangzuo and they are getting closer and closer to the gate of Blackwater City, and it is daytime, and they can even see some people coming in and out in front of the open city gate, which also makes Li Liangzuo and them even more excited, and even some people can't help laughing loudly.

But at this moment, I suddenly heard Queen Liang scream: "Your Majesty! Stop, there's something wrong with Blackwater! ”

Hearing Empress Liang's voice, Li Liangzuo couldn't help but be stunned, and at the same time his legs loosened, and his horse slowed down, at this time, he saw Empress Liang catching up from behind, and pointed to Heishui City with a face full of panic: "Your Majesty, look, although the city gate looks normal, the surrounding city walls are scarred, and some of them have traces of fire, which shows that there has just been a big war here......"

Before Empress Liang's words were finished, she saw a Liao army suddenly kill out of the city, and countless Liao troops also poured out from the woods on both sides of the road, surrounding their two thousand people at once, which also made Li Liangzuo's face extremely ugly all of a sudden.

"I ...... I understand, it's Yelu Chongyuan, he should have fallen to the Great Song Dynasty. Seeing these Liao troops rushing out, Empress Liang also stood on the spot, and after a long time, she muttered to herself, she finally figured out what was wrong, but unfortunately it was too late now.

"Hahahaha~, His Majesty the Emperor came to Blackwater City, why didn't he go into the city to rest, but stopped in front of the city gate?" At this moment, I saw a burst of laughter from the Liao army rushing out of the city gate, and then an old man with white hair walked out of the army, it was Yelu Chongyuan, who Li Liangzuo had seen before.

"Yelu Chongyuan!" Li Liangzuo almost squeezed these words from between his teeth, and the gaze he looked at the other party was also extremely resentful, he never expected that Yelu Chongyuan, who was regarded as an ally by himself, would betray him at this critical moment, and also occupy Blackwater City, it seems that this time he really can't escape.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, I haven't seen you for many days, you are more wolf than you were at the beginning, and you have already set up a banquet in the city, just waiting for you to go in and drink a few glasses." For Li Liangzuo's eyes full of anger, Yelu Chongyuan didn't seem to see it at all, but invited the other party with a smile, as if he was really inviting a close friend.

Looking at Yelu Chongyuan with a smile on his face in front of him, Li Liangzuo also slowly calmed down from his anger, he looked at the Liao army that surrounded him on all sides, and then looked at the defeated generals of the two thousand remnants behind him, which made his eyes can't help but show a look of despair, judging from the current situation, he has absolutely no possibility of escaping.

"Yelu Chongyuan, you only have tens of thousands of troops, this Blackwater City is extremely strong, and the troops stationed are not less than yours, how did you occupy here, could it be that the guards in the city surrendered to you?" Li Liangzuo suddenly asked at this time, after he calmed down, he had put his life and death aside, but became interested in how Yelu Chongyuan captured Blackwater City.

"Haha, this is also thanks to the letter of alliance signed by His Majesty the Emperor and me at the beginning, so that the guards of Blackwater City are not very suspicious of us, and even allowed us to be stationed twenty miles outside Blackwater City, two days ago I sent someone into the city in the name of purchasing wine and meat, and deliberately caused trouble, and then took this opportunity to capture the city gate in one fell swoop, and then captured Blackwater City without much effort." Yelu Chongyuan laughed proudly again when he heard this, he didn't say anything about his fall to the Great Song, but he knew that with Li Liangzuo's intelligence, he should have guessed this a long time ago.

"I see, it seems that I have fallen into such a fate, and I blame me for not knowing anyone, and I buried this hidden danger for myself early!" Li Liangzuo couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, and at the same time his face showed a look of despair, at this time he had completely accepted his fate, as for the remnants of the defeated generals behind him, although they were extremely angry, their bodies had already been overdrawn, and they were powerless to resist at all.

The next thing was very simple, under the threat of Yelu Chongyuan, Li Liangzuo didn't bother to resist anymore, and directly ordered his soldiers to lay down their weapons, and then was escorted to Blackwater City by Yelu Chongyuan with Empress Liang. It is worth mentioning that Yelu Chongyuan actually prepared wine and food in the city, and then personally entertained Li Liangzuo and his wife, but after this banquet was over, the couple was strictly imprisoned, and Yelu Chongyuan wanted to use them and his wife to exchange some benefits with the Great Song Dynasty.

A few days ago, Zhao Yan and Yang Wenguang and others in Xingqing Mansion finally waited for the messenger sent by Yelu Chongyuan, and learned from the messenger that Li Liangzuo and his wife were arrested, which also made them ecstatic, and many people expressed their admiration for Yang Wenguang, after all, this plan was first thought up by Yang Wenguang.

It turned out that after Yang Wenguang knew that Li Liangzuo was forced by the Liao army to flee in the direction of Heishui City, he immediately thought of a way, that is, to send someone to Yelu Chongyuan, and use the alliance as a bait, so as to use Yelu Chongyuan to kill or capture Li Liangzuo alive.

For Yang Wenguang's method, Zhao Yan and others felt a little too whimsical at first, after all, Yelu Chongyuan and Li Liangzuo are allies, and Yelu Chongyuan has always disliked the Han people, so it is a little impossible for him to abandon his original ally and form an alliance with the Great Song Dynasty, but after Yang Wenguang analyzed the reasons in detail, this made Zhao Yan and them have a feeling of being stunned, and they all agreed at the moment, and now as Yang Wenguang expected, Yelu Chongyuan really sent troops to capture Li Liangzuo and his wife. This makes Zhao Yan unconvinced, it seems that Jiang is still old and spicy!

"King Jun, Li Liangzuo has been caught, Yelu Chongyuan will definitely use him to exchange some benefits with us, this is not something that the old man can call the shots, what do you think will happen next?" In the marshal mansion of Xingqing Mansion City, Yang Wenguang also asked Zhao Yan with a happy face.

"This old general doesn't have to worry, my eldest brother has already rushed over from Xi'an Prefecture, and it is estimated that he will arrive in the next two days, and then he will be able to deal with these things!" Zhao Yan also laughed at this time, the alliance with Yelu Chongyuan is true or false, he was the one who sent the envoy without authorization, and he can regret it at any time, but if Zhao Yan agrees, then this alliance can become true, after all, Yelu Chongyuan is also a good chess piece.

"That's great, if Xingqing Mansion has His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in charge, we will be much easier!" Hearing that Zhao Ji was coming, Yang Wenguang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, during this time, he grabbed the military and political power, although it seemed to be a good thing, but he was old, and he was really a little powerless for heavy government affairs, and he had long wanted to throw these things to others.

Zhao Yan was also looking forward to Zhao Zhi coming to Xingqing Mansion, because he wanted to know if Zhao Ji had listened to Hua Zhi's persuasion, and whether he was still insisting on making Hua Zhi the crown princess? (To be continued) R466
