Chapter 2 (7)

At this time, the Liao State had not been in power for a long time, and its vigor was still there. E『.*Although there are many chronic diseases inside, the efficiency of the operation of the court is not bad. Therefore, it only took seven or eight days of hard work to spread Yelu Ruan's "warning" to Liu Chong's camp!

Just as Fu Yanqing said a few years ago, any official position in the world can be sealed, but the emperor cannot! As a "nephew emperor" who took the initiative to come to the Liao State to seek canonization, Liu Chong did not have the courage to defend himself at all after being sprayed with foam on his face by the envoy of the Liao State. He immediately ordered people, beat the drums of war, and prepared to personally lead the army to attack Zezhou, and would rather die in battle than live up to the painstaking cultivation of his "uncle" Yelu Ruan.

However, the movement was quite loud, but the result was very unsatisfactory. Liu Hanjun fought a bloody battle for two days and one night, and finally opened a breakthrough in the north direction of Zezhou City, but it was now within the first city wall, and I don't know when there was a second city wall. Between the two city walls, they are divided by several small city walls, which do not communicate with each other. The first wave of Liu Han warriors who rushed into the city were blocked by the defenders in a very narrow area, and arrows rained down on three sides, and in the blink of an eye, they were all killed and wounded.

"Chang Si, Lao Tzu will crush your bones and scatter ashes!" Liu Chong's eyes were split, and he personally led the guards and roared up. Before he could approach the gap in the city wall full of corpses, he suddenly heard a gong, "Dang Dang Dang ......". Immediately after, the smoke billowed and the red stars splashed, but it was Chang Si who lit the dry firewood that was piled up in the gap in the city wall. The soldiers of the Han army who were shot dead in the city before were burned to the ground, along with the wounded numbers of the Han soldiers who did not have time to crawl out.

In this way, the breakthrough that had been opened by sacrificing countless lives was completely scrapped. If you want to open the second breakthrough, you don't know how many corpses you have to exchange for it? And what frightened Liu Han even more was that the fat fox often thought about the endless tricks of defending the city. Since the beginning of the war, a new one has been replaced almost every few days, and every time a new one appears, the attacker has been bleeding!

"Chang Fat, after Lao Tzu returns to Taiyuan, he will punish your nine clans!" Liu Zhiyuan was so smoked that his face was full of tears, jumped to his feet, and threatened loudly. However, these threats don't actually mean anything. First of all, from such a distance, Chang Si may not be able to hear it. Secondly, as early as when he was still dreaming of the emperor, the fat fox Chang Kegong had already moved his immediate family members in Taiyuan City to Luzhou with a swagger!

"Your Majesty is angry, Chang Kegong is a piece of hob meat. When he was under the tent of Taizu, he was famous for being good at fighting bad battles. "It was still Ma Bujun who commanded Zhang Yuanhui to be calm-headed, knowing that if he continued to fight, Liu Chong would definitely not get any benefits. Hurriedly stepped forward with his shield and reminded loudly.

As soon as his words fell, after the thick smoke, several cold lights suddenly lit up. swept over a distance of one hundred and ten paces and went straight to where Liu Chong's flag was recognized. Although because of the influence of distance and wind, Liu Chong did not hurt half of his hair, but it also scared the latter to the point that his soul was furious, and cold sweat instantly flowed all over his face.

"Escort, escort!" Zhang Yuanhui was also frightened, and while blocking Liu Chong's chest with his body, he shouted in a dumb voice, "Quick, escort Your Majesty to retreat three hundred steps away." ”

The soldiers were already exhausted, and they were all holding on with one breath. Suddenly, I heard someone shouting for escort, and thought that Liu Chong had been assassinated. Suddenly turned around and ran back like crazy. escaped more than five miles away, and only then did he barely stand on his feet under the personal greeting of Liu Chong himself.

As a result, the Han army outside the city of Zezhou had no morale to fight again in a short period of time. However, the envoy of the Liao State became more and more arrogant, and from top to bottom, he ridiculed the monarchs and ministers of Liu Han State.

was really forced to be helpless, and the next day, Liu Chong had no choice but to fight to the death. When the veteran Zhang Yuanhui heard this, he immediately knelt down with tears in his eyes and loudly dissuaded: "Your Majesty, since ancient times, it has been easy to defend the city and difficult to attack the city......!

"Your Majesty think twice!"

"Your Majesty, the morale of the army is in turmoil. If you continue to fight, I'm afraid something will happen!"

"Your Majesty, the brothers are all Taiyuan sons, and if they continue to fight, they will hurt the country!"

......

Before the words fell, Zhong Wenwu had already knelt down. All of them had tears in their eyes, begging Liu Chong not to continue to act rashly and bury all the sons and daughters under the strong city.

"Get up, get up, I, don't I know that all the people who died in the battle were Taiyuan Erlang?!" Liu Chong was not a hard-hearted person, and when he saw the ministers like this, tears immediately flowed all over his face, "But, but if, if we lose the support of the Liao State, we, what will we do to resist Guo Wei's army in the future?"

"This ......" The dissuasion suddenly stopped, and all the civil and military officers blushed, lowered their heads, and were speechless.

Most of them did not approve of Liu Chong's proclamation of Yelu Ruan as a nephew in exchange for Khitan support. But if you don't do this, Taiyuan alone will definitely not be able to stop Guo Wei's troops who are alleviating the country. Therefore, when Liu Chong decided to declare himself a vassal to the Liao State, although they felt humiliated in their hearts, none of them had the courage to stand up and stop it. Now the envoys of Yelu Ruan, the emperor of Liao, made it difficult for the monarchs and ministers of Liu Han in every way, and they did not have the courage to persuade Liu Chong to cut off the other party.

"Why should my father bother about this? Then the envoy of the Liao State only thinks that our Han army has a poor record, and does not think that our Han army has been unable to defeat Zezhou for a long time?" Just when everyone was helpless, a loud voice sounded at the door of the Chinese army's tent. Like the first song of an eagle, it suddenly lifted everyone's spirits.

"Ho'er, why are you here?" Liu Chong stood up from behind the handsome case and strode towards the comer, "Who called you here, on the battlefield, there are no eyes for swords and arrows." In case ......"

"The child came specially to share his father's worries!" "The person who came stood firm and stood solemnly, "Chang Si is a veteran of a hundred battles, who has been running Zelu for many years and occupies a favorable location. The more anxious the father is to take it down, the easier it is for him to take advantage of it. In Hebei, the leaders of the troops are the old Zheng Renzhi and the new Ding Zheng Ziming, as long as the father and emperor send a good general, so that Yang Chonggui, Zhang Yuanheng and Hu Yancong work together, they will be able to break the deadlock in front of them!"

"Hiss-" Liu Chong gasped and looked at his third son, Liu Hao, in front of him, surprised and delighted.

"This?" all the civil and military officers frowned and exchanged their heads one after another.

If Zheng Renzhi and Zheng Ziming are two, they are really as easy to deal with as the third prince Liu Hao said. Yang Chonggui has already crushed them to ashes, and he will never have no achievements until now. However, shifting the focus of the battlefield from Hedong to Hebei is not necessarily a good strategy.

First of all, Shenzhou, Jizhou and Zhenzhou have all suffered from war not long ago, especially Shenzhou, which fell into the hands of the Khitans last winter, the city walls are dilapidated, and the defenses in the city have been looted, and there is no time to reconfigure them.

Secondly, no matter how difficult Zheng Renzhi and Zheng Ziming are to deal with, they will not be more difficult to deal with than Chang Si. Moreover, the morale of the Han army on the battlefield in Hebei is acceptable, and it will not be like the Hedong side, which is already on the verge of collapse.

"The child is not talented, I am willing to go out for my father and dedicate the heads of those two Zheng thieves to His Majesty!" Before everyone could completely straighten out their thinking, the third prince Liu Hao had already taken the initiative to ask for help again, "Please give the child a chance to make meritorious contributions and repay your parenting grace!"
