The four years of the Taiping rejuvenation of the Song Dynasty and the eleventh year of the Tianbao of the Liao State were also the eleventh years of the Liao Kingdom.

On June 20, the Song army broke through to the border of the Liao State.

By June 23, the vanguard of the Song army had already clashed with the Liao army, and more than 500 Liao soldiers were captured in this battle, and the banner was victorious.

Zhao Guangyi set up the camp in Baoguang Temple in the south of the city.

"It's a good name," Zhao Guangyi said to Li Lianqiao, "I hope that with the blessing of the Buddha, our army will be able to open to victory." ”

Li Lianqiao looked at the carvings in the temple: "I don't believe in Buddhism, and I don't understand it very well, it seems that many Khitan people believe in Buddhism." ”

"That's right, they believe in Buddhism, and we Song people pay more attention to Buddhism and Taoism." Zhao Guangyi said proudly.

"I can't understand you northerners, where we are, the mountain ghost is the only master." Li Lianqiao said.

"This is the characteristic of Chudi." Zhao Guangyi said.

"We are relatively backward in Chudi, and the official family will not look down on it." Li Lianqiao said faintly.

"But you women from Chudi, that's quite moving." Zhao Guangyi couldn't help but pull Li Lianqiao's shoulder and kiss her on the mouth.

Wang Jien coughed from afar, and Zhao Guangyi regained his expression.

"Official, the victory mouth has been surrounded by our army." Wang Jien said.

Deshengkou, that is, the mountain pass of today's Changping District, everyone's battlefield is in the area of today's Tiantongyuan.

"Lead the horse, I will go to the north of the city in person!" Zhao Guangyi was triumphant.

Everything seems to be in Zhao Guangyi's calculations, the Han generals among the Liao people, there are indeed defectors, in addition to the surrender of the defenders of Zhuozhou and Yizhou, the states and counties that go to the direction of today's Liaoning have also appeared to surrender to the Song Dynasty.

Now that the victory pass has been blocked, the Liao army of Yelu has no way to support the defenders in the city.

"What do you think?" Zhao Guangyi looked at Yang Ye.

The newly surrendered general frowned at the victory.

"The official, the minister thinks that he should pull out the victory mouth and deal with Nanjing City again." Yang Ye answered honestly.

"Pan Mei, what about you?" Zhao Guangyi looked at Pan Mei.

Pan Mei pondered Zhao Guangyi's thoughts: "The minister thinks that a soldier should be left to block here, and the army will attack Youzhou City. ”

"I agree with Pan Mei's idea," Zhao Guangyi nodded, "Yang Ye, you are responsible for blocking the victory, and there must be no mistakes." ”

"Yes." Yang Ye was a little faintly worried, but he didn't know what the problem was.

After putting Yang Ye down, Zhao Guangyi returned to Baoguang Temple.

Here's how the forces are deployed:

Dingguo Jiedu envoy Song Wei and Shangshi envoy Hou Zhaoyuan, led more than 10,000 troops to attack the southeast of the city;

Heyang Jiedu made Cui Yanjin and the internal worship official Jiang Shoujun, and led more than 10,000 troops to attack the northwest;

Zhangxin Jiedu made Liu Yu lead the army to attack the northeast;

Dingwu Jiedu made Meng Xuanzhe attack the southwest.

The ancients had several ways to attack the city, one of which was to encircle three verticals and one, so that the enemy would desperately break through in the direction of no siege when it collapsed.

This kind of four-door attack, also known as "desperate attack", is a way of playing that no one is let go and no one is allowed to run, the advantage is that the Song people are much more than the Liao people, if everyone exchanges one to one, the Liao people will definitely be wiped out after a long time.

The disadvantage is that everyone knows that there are Song troops on all sides, and they will inevitably fight to the death with all their might.

At the same time, the Song army also sent a detailed work to rebel against the Han commanders, which made the people of Youzhou panic for a while, and the Khitan generals and high-ranking officials had to withdraw from their strongholds outside the city and return to the city to stabilize the people's hearts.

"Han people are unreliable!" This is what many Khitans fear.

Yelu was blocked by Yang Ye at the mouth of victory, there was a lack of a good general in the city, everyone was waiting for the emperor's will, at this time, Yelu Xiuge asked the emperor to take over all the soldiers and horses in Nanjing.

Since Brother Yelu Hugh went to Xu Yongzhi to deliver a roast sheep, he has been running to Xu's house from time to time, Xu Yong felt that this person was a little annoying on the one hand, but on the other hand, he had a deeper understanding of this person.

Brother Yelu Hugh didn't talk to Xu Yongzhi about the war, so he asked Xu Yongzhi to accompany him to the city.

On the streets of Nanjing, Liao, there are many Han people, Khitan people, and Xi people, of course, more Han people.

On some signboards, there are Khitan characters written, which are very similar to Chinese characters, but the analogy is strange, like a bunch of words drinking too much wine.

Brother Yelu Hugh took Xu Yongzhi to sit down in the market and called the boss: "Come on a pair of lamb tripies!" ”

The boss agreed, and the tripe was scalded with water.

"This is sesame paste, you southerners don't know if you can get used to it." Jerushuge said.

Dip it in tahini and eat water to burst your belly, and then drink a bowl of spirits, which is quite comfortable.

"Delicious, quite delicious." Xu Yongzhi praised.

Jeruhhuge took out ten copper coins and put them on the table.

"It's not expensive." Xu Yongzhi said.

"It's almost expensive, and the outside of the city is about to be closed." Jerushuge said.

Xu Yongzhi ignored him, he knew that Yelu Xiuge wanted to persuade himself to give him advice.

"You'd better hurry up." Yelu Hugo said to Xu Yongzhi.

"Why?" Xu Yongzhi asked.

"You live in this city, but you don't have the same heart as the people in the city, and the people outside the city are also your enemies, but you don't want to deal with him, you should leave as soon as possible, if you want, you can go to the capital, where I have friends who can receive you, your medical skills are so good, you will definitely be very popular there." Jerushuge said.

"What if I don't go?" Xu Yongzhi said.

He liked the way Jerehugo was a person.

Historically, this person has been evaluated as a "public assistant talent", that is, a person who can serve as prime minister at a young age.

This is a loyal and patriotic person, even by the standards of the Han people, he can be called a gentleman, worried about the country and the people, he opened his mouth to Xu Yongzhi, that is, the people of Nanjing.

"Xu Xianggong, I can't expect you to go out of the mountain to take command, but I hope you can teach me more, I must defeat Zhao Guangyi, otherwise, the 300,000 people in Nanjing City will be slaughtered." Jerushuge said.

Xu Yongzhi poured wine for Brother Yeluxiu: "Actually, you can also talk to him about a condition for opening the city, so you don't have to fight." ”

Brother Yelu Xiu smiled bitterly: "Xu Xianggong said it so easily, Zhao Guangyi will not allow us to open the city, if it is your Emperor Taizu, I dare to open the city, if it is him Zhao Er, I'm sorry, I don't dare." ”

This is obviously homework, and Xu Yongzhi is most worried about this.

"Why don't you dare?" Xu Yongzhi asked Brother Yelu Hugh.

"Still don't understand? Your ancestor is a hero, he will not kill innocents indiscriminately, Zhao Guangyi is not. Jeruxiugo said.

Xu Yongzhi knew that Yelu Hugo was right, but he didn't know what to say.

"You know that he didn't grab the money in Taiyuan City, the current Song army is all red-eyed ghosts, if they come in, they will definitely slaughter the city, you look at these markets, businesses, Nanjing City has been stable for decades, everyone is used to the current life......"

"But the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun belong to the Great Song Dynasty, and you should hand them over." Xu Yongzhi said weakly.

"Xu Xianggong, Youzhou is from Youzhou, and most of the time, we Khitan people will not interfere with the life of the award. Our taxes are fair, and our officials do not enslave and beat and scold the Han people. Jeruxiugo said.

"It's different, you are barbarians......" Xu Yongzhi muttered.

"Are we really barbarians? You come with me. ”

Yelu Hugo and Xu Yong got on their horses, and the two horses trotted up.

Ran out more than two miles, and there was a red government mansion on the side of the road.

"What do you see what this is?"

Xu Yongzhi looked at the plaque.

"Gongyuan?"

"This is the Gongyuan of Nanjing City, we also have state schools and county schools, and we also take the Four Books and Five Classics, are we barbarians? Is there a barbarian in the world who reads? Xu Xianggong, my big brother Xu, you say that we are barbarians, but what about you? Your parents are both shamans, they believe in the shaman of Yunmengze, and others have persecuted your family because of this, what is the difference between barbarians and Huaxia? ”

"You're just a relatively pro-Han Khitan, and most of the time, the Khitans will kill and enslave us." Xu Yongzhi said.

"We Khitans believe in Buddhism more devout than you Han people! Xu Xianggong, if you can trust me, help me defeat Zhao Er, I will not kill people indiscriminately, I will not let the Liao people invade the Song Dynasty, I will try my best to make peace between the Liao and Song countries, what do you think of this condition? ”

This is indeed an enticing condition. Xu Yongzhi thought.

"How can I trust you?"

"You have to believe me, otherwise this city, 300,000 people, these markets, merchants and monasteries will be looted, you are a Han Chinese, but you are also a merchant, a person who loves life! Help everyone, and help you get revenge by the way! ”

Xu Yongzhi looked at Brother Yelu Xiu, and he slowly stretched out his palm.

"High five!"

Yelu Hugo jumped off the horse, lay on the ground, and gave Xu Yongzhi a deep gift.

Xu Yongzhi didn't deliberately pick him up, but just said:

"Let's go to the Gaoliang River to set up a formation."

"Sorghum River?"

"Don't believe me?"

"No, I'll arrange it!"

There is still one today, just outside the Xizhi Gate in Beijing.

The river is not wide, but the reeds are deep, and in the summer there are many mosquitoes, some people fish nearby, and others release them.

When the Liao State ruled this land, there were not so many buildings, and there were many rivers and ditches here.

This was the most unsuitable area for the Liao cavalry to attack, and the Song army had an advantage here.

However, history has no assumptions.

Xu Yongzhi helped the Liao army pick this territory as a battlefield for a decisive battle with the Song army.
