"Really?" Liu Zhiyuan's body jerked forward, his face full of anticipation. All the resentment and loss in the heart of the pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info were swept away in an instant.

"More than seventy percent, the last general has already sent a detailed work to verify. In three days at the latest, you will be able to get Zhun Xin'er!" the general Guo Wei smiled and nodded vigorously.

"Huh-" Liu Zhiyuan let out a long breath, sat back on the Hu bed, and suddenly felt lighter from head to toe.

If he puts the people he fears the most in the world together, Zhao Yanshou will definitely be among the top five. Not because this person is instinctively strong and brave and good at fighting, but because this person is surprisingly shameless.

This person's original surname was Liu, and he was also regarded as an official eunuch. When he was young, he began to read Confucian classics, known as a prodigy, and every time his elders took the exam, he did it without thinking about it. However, the good times did not last long, and before Xiao Liu Yanshou grew up, his biological father was killed by Liu Shouwen, the envoy of Yichang Jiedu, and he and his mother fell into the hands of Zhao Dejun, the general of Liu.

Zhao Dejun saw that Liu Yanshou was smart, handsome, and understanding, so he accepted him as his adopted son. Since then, he has served in various princes, constantly changing courts, and his official position has risen rapidly like a kite. In the Later Tang Qingtai period, the father has been named the king of Beiping, and the son has also become the Xuzhou Festival envoy.

However, the father and son were not greedy enough, and quietly started to collude with the Khitans to stand on their own. Who would have thought that it was only half of the talk, but it was preempted by the more decisive Shi Jingjiao, and on the condition of ceding the sixteen states of Yanyun, the Khitans were attracted to enter the Kou.

Later Tang Emperor Li Congke was caught off guard and hurriedly ordered Zhao Dejun, Zhao Yanshou and his son to send troops to resist. However, the Zhao father and son "learned a lesson" and fell directly to the Khitans. And sent a messenger to the Khitan Emperor Yelu Deguang to express his willingness to inherit all the conditions that Shi Jingjiao had promised to the Khitan before, plus a small number of gold and silver and a number of young and strong people of appropriate age, just to replace Shi Jingjiao and be the first person to lead the way.

When Jerod saw the letter, he was overjoyed. While sending people to follow the Zhao family and his son, he united with Shi Jingjiao to march quickly towards the Central Plains. After destroying Hou Tang, he immediately turned around and gave the Zhao father and son, who were having a "Spring and Autumn Dream", a blow to the head.

The soldiers under his command were not ashamed of the actions of the Zhao family and his son, and turned away one after another. Therefore, in the first battle with the Khitans, the Zhao soldiers and horses lost seventy-seven-eighty-eight. Seeing that the general situation was gone, the Zhao father and son had no choice but to take the initiative to tie their arms, escorted by their cronies, and went to Yelu Deguang to surrender.

Yelu Deguang also looked down on the father and son in his heart, and without saying a word, he reduced the two to slavery and sent them to the outside of the plug to release the horses. A few months later, Zhao Dejun died in remorse and poverty. Zhao Yanshou was re-activated by Yelu Deguang because he was familiar with the terrain and people's conditions of Youyan, and became a lackey under the Khitan tent.

It stands to reason that the revenge of killing his father is not shared, and even if Zhao Yanshou is unable to avenge his adoptive father, he should find a way to escape back to the Central Plains. However, this son immediately shook his spirits and wholeheartedly offered advice to the Khitan people to rule Yanyun. And personally went out to destroy dozens of local fortresses that refused to yield to the Khitans, and killed the heads of Yanyun states. So, Yelude Guanglong Yan Dayue, simply promoted him to be the envoy of the Youzhou Festival.

In the eighth year of Tianfu, Emperor Shi Jingjiao died of depression, and his adopted son Shi Chonggui ascended the throne. The new emperor had relied on the Central Plains for several years to recuperate, and his vitality was gradually regained, and he refused to continue to pay tribute to the Khitan. Zhao Yanshou was furious when he heard the news, and immediately led the Youzhou soldiers and horses south, vowing to seek justice for his master.

Although he screamed fiercely, his skills were too poor. was soon defeated by Fu Yanqing, and fled back to Youzhou. However, the fierce war between the Khitan and the Later Jin Dynasty began from then on. After four consecutive years, the Khitans continued to increase their troops, repeatedly defeated and fought, and vowed to destroy the Later Jin Dynasty. At the beginning of each round of attack, Zhao Yanshou was a pioneer, never willing to "succumb" to other leaders.

With the concerted efforts of him, Du Chongwei, Zhang Yanze and others, the Khitans finally attacked Bianliang, the Later Jin Dynasty perished, and the Central Plains were devastated. is just the blood of millions of living beings, but it failed to exchange the glory and wealth of dreams for Zhao, Du and others. Seeing that the prosperity of the Central Plains far exceeded that of the outside world, Yelude, the lord of the Khitan state, simply announced that he would be the great emperor of the whole world. The original promise, after the matter was completed, the promise of supporting Zhao Yanshou as the emperor was swallowed back into his stomach.

Zhao Yanshou made a lot of efforts, but he didn't get the benefits he deserved, and he inevitably felt a little aggrieved in his heart. But a good dog is a good dog, and he will never hold a grudge against his owner. After the Khitans were squeezed out of the Central Plains by Liu Zhiyuan, Zhao Yanshou quickly forgot all the unhappiness and fought again on the front line of blocking the Han soldiers and horses from going north to recover the territory.

And Yelu Ruan, the new emperor of Liao, also learned enough lessons from the reality that the Khitans were forced to withdraw from the Central Plains last time. No longer blindly thinking about conquering by force, but also starting to work on people's hearts. In order to show that he was not only the emperor of the Khitans, some of the gentle measures pioneered by Yelu Deguang in the past have been multiplied. As the most loyal to the Great Liao among the Han people, Zhao Yanshou was bestowed a series of high-ranking officials such as the Great Prime Minister, the Privy Envoy of the Southern Yuan, and the King of Yan, in an attempt to encourage others to follow suit.

Some time ago, the Han army was unable to distinguish between Du Chongwei and Du Chongwei, and the main reason was that Zhao Yanshou led the soldiers and horses in Youzhou to help Du Chongwei, and constantly sent grain, grass and baggage to Du Chongwei's old nest. Although Guo Wei later led his troops to defeat Zhao Yanshou again. But according to past experience, as long as this person is not dead, sooner or later he will roar and bite the door again.

Now it's okay, Zhao Yanshou, the loyal dog of the Khitan people, was actually given a soup pot by his owner. After the news spread, how many of the 16 prefectures of Yanyun took him as a model and were terrified? Those Confucians in the north who had been preaching that the Liao State was the destiny of heaven and that the Khitans and Han people would treat the emperor equally in the territory of the Great Liao, who would have the good face to continue to talk about it?

"The last general is bold, please order the army to reopen the road from Yedu to the north. Give the people in the city a few days to come out to chop wood and find food!" After waiting quietly for a while, it was estimated that Liu Zhiyuan had almost digested the good news, and Guo Wei, the deputy envoy of the Han Dynasty, proposed in a low voice.

Liu Zhiyuan is worthy of being the emperor immediately, and his eyes suddenly shine brightly, "You are, are you persuading me to use Ye Du, who is mixed with the people, to deliberately spread the news that Zhao Yanshou was unloaded and killed a donkey into the city, and disturb the hearts of Du Chongwei and others?"

"Exactly!" Guo Wei nodded and responded loudly. "Du Chongwei has been operating in Yedu for many years, and the defense facilities at the head of the city are very complete, and his minions are also quite loyal. And the Khitans and Youzhou soldiers in the city have always believed that the Liao chieftain will definitely send more soldiers and horses to fight for Yedu!"

"Hmm-!" Liu Zhiyuan groaned in a low voice, looking hesitant.

At present, the Han army is surrounded in the city of Yedu, in addition to Du Chongwei's minions, there are also some Khitan soldiers who were ordered to rush from the south of Liao to help, and the "Yan army" who fled into the city after being defeated by Guo Wei some time ago. These people have families and relatives and friends in Youzhou, especially several Yan army generals, who were originally Zhao Yanshou's henchmen, and the Zhao family has long been a loss and a glory.

As Guo Wei analyzed, although the defenders in Yedu City have been completely disabled, they still have not lost the confidence to hold on to the end. The Khitans invaded the Central Plains twice, and successively destroyed the "brilliant" achievements of the Later Han and Later Jin, which convinced the defenders that as long as the Liao brigade arrived, the Great Han would repeat the mistakes of the Later Tang and Later Jin. And if they give up resistance and surrender to the Han, not only will the family members who stay in Yanyun and outside the Saiwai be implicated, but when the next Khitan invades the south, they themselves will be in a catastrophe.

Therefore, the news that Zhao Yanshou was beheaded by the whole door was transmitted into the city at this juncture, which was definitely a killing move. Not only the soldiers of the "Yan Army" in the city will immediately fall into chaos. Those hardcore henchmen under Du Chongwei will also suddenly find that following the master general to join the Liao State may not have a wonderful future.

However, the result of Du Chongwei's initiative to open the city and surrender was not what Liu Zhiyuan was happy to see. As the saying goes, if you don't die, you will suffer from it. Du Chongwei is Shi Jingjiao's sister-in-law, and the former pillar of the Later Jin Kingdom. In the army and the court, there are many acquaintances. If he had sent an envoy out of the city to ask for surrender, in order to reduce unnecessary casualties on his side, he would have to be pardoned for his capital crime and given him a very high office. And if he secretly accumulates vitality in the future and gathers a group of protégés to make trouble, the Great Han Kingdom will suffer another heavy blow!

After weighing it for a long time, Liu Zhiyuan raised his head again and discussed with Guo Wei tentatively, "Are you sure that the news of Zhao Yanshou's execution is true?

Du Chongwei didn't dare to abandon the city. Guo Wei thought about it and decided to start with the second hypothesis, "The most important reason why Zhao Yanshou was killed is that the soldiers and horses under this person's command were lost more than half before, and they are no longer irreplaceable for the Khitans. And if Du Chongwei loses Yedu, on the side of the Khitans, he will completely lose his ability to establish himself, and the future fate may not be as good as Zhao Yanshou!"

"That's natural, when did Hu Lu talk about morality? They only value strength!" Although he is from the Shatuo tribe, it does not prevent Liu Zhiyuan from calling himself a pure Central Plains person and sneering at the beastly behavior of the Khitan people.

"As for the authenticity of the news, the last general said that more than seventy percent was because the fine work that the last general sent to the north had not yet returned to the barracks. However, the news transmitted by the meticulous workers through various channels, as well as the rumors spread among the vendors, have repeatedly confirmed that Zhao Yanshou's family has been wiped out. After a slight pause, Guo Wei added very confidently.

"Really, you are so sure?!" Liu Zhiyuan still didn't want to give Du Chongwei a chance to surrender, so he smiled and deliberately questioned. However, before Guo Wei could explain and assure, he immediately jumped up, pointed at Guo Wei's chest and laughed loudly, "I understand, you did it." It was you who sent someone to use a trick to kill Zhao Yanshou's dog mongrel!Hahahahaha, Guo Wei, Guo Wei, just now I said that my talent is limited, and you can even make a counter-plot, where is there anything you don't understand in this world? Hahaha, hahaha, hahahahaha-"
