Chapter 200: You can't kill it, you have to capture it alive
Shangjing, Liu's Mansion. Liu Liufu has not been in good health since he came back from this mission to the Great Song Dynasty.
The imperial doctor also came to see him, saying that he was injected with wind on the way back, which hurt his liver and spleen, and he needed to recuperate well, especially if he couldn't move.
After Liaoxing Sect Yelu Sect really knew, he allowed him to recuperate at home and did not have to go to court. After staying at home for a while, Liu Liufu felt that his health was better and he was eating more than before, and Ye Luren, the privy deputy envoy of the North Court, came to visit the mansion first.
The relationship between the two has always been very good, and after Liu Liufu learned about his coming, he met each other in the courtyard. Yeluren first went to the courtyard under the guidance of the housekeeper, and saw Liu Liufu lying on a wooden bed basking in the sun.
Perhaps because of the sun's exposure, Liu Liufu had a layer of fine sweat stains on his head, and his whole face was a little pale.
"Brother Liu, how is your body?" As soon as he saw this, Yeluren forcibly suppressed the words he was about to say.
"It's good, the doctor said, bask in the sun more. The main reason is that it is too cold in winter when we go to Beijing. When he said this, Liu Liufu couldn't help but think of the Great Song Dynasty, although the winter in Bianliang City was also a little cold, it was much better than going to Beijing.
"Yes, we are originally located in the north, and the climate here is cold, and we are most prone to getting sick." When Yeluren heard this first, he couldn't help but sigh.
"Hehe, it doesn't matter, as long as I work hard, sooner or later, one day, our Da Liao will definitely be able to defeat the Great Song Dynasty, and it will be good to occupy everything in the entire Song Dynasty at that time. Renxian, I've heard that the south of the Great Song Dynasty is as warm as spring all year round, and if you can live there, you must enjoy it very much. Listening to Liu Liufu's vision for the future, Yelu Renxian was also touched and said,
"Yes, as long as we work hard, there will be a day." The rest of the time seemed to fall into the moment when the two of them were imagining the future, and they didn't speak for a long time.
It wasn't until the housekeeper brought the tea that Liu Liufu came to his senses and said, "Try it, this is a kernel tea from Song Di, and it tastes very good." ”
"Okay, okay." Yeluren agreed immediately, and then reached out to take the tea.
"Good tea, good tea." After taking a sip, Yeluren first looked like a compliment. In fact, when Liu Liufu came back from the Great Song Dynasty, he gave some Ren tea from Yelu Renxian's mansion, although the quantity was not much, but it must have been drunk.
But now he pretended to drink it for the first time, and all this fell into Liu Liufu's eyes, making him frown and ask,
"Renxian, is there something wrong with this time?"
"Ahh Nothing serious. Ye Luren first considered that Liu Liufu's body didn't seem to be very good, so he didn't want to explain his intentions.
"Even if it's not a big deal, it's still something. Come, let's talk, I think you don't hesitate to disturb me to recuperate, it must be a big matter. "Liu Liufu is an important minister of the Liao State, or the third envoy in charge of finance, what a shrewd person he must be, whether Yeluren has something to do first, of course he can see it.
Speaking of which, Yeluren did not hide it anymore and asked the question he wanted to ask,
"Brother Liu, do you know this person Su Shi?"
"Yes. Well? What do you do when you suddenly ask about this? Liu Liufu was suspicious.
"Nothing? I just want to get to know this person. Yeluren said with a smile.
"Know this person? No, there must be something, Renxian, is there anything between you and me that still needs to be hidden? He wouldn't believe that the other party asked about Su Shi because of curiosity, this person was just a petty official like a sesame mung bean in the Great Song Dynasty, and the dignified deputy privy envoy of the North Court, Ye Luren, who exercised the power of the privy envoy, would ask such a trivial matter?
Seeing that he couldn't fool Liu Liufu, Ye Luren had no choice but to tell the truth, and told Su Shi about coming to Liaojing and making trouble in Yizhou and Zhuozhou in a row.
Liu Liufu listened carefully, he didn't care much at first, but the more he listened, the more ugly his face became. Su Shi's actions were completely unexpected, and he finally knew what kind of stinky chess he had made and what kind of person he had offended.
It took a long time to stick incense, and Yelu Renxian said about Su Shi's great achievements after coming to Liao, and finally concluded: "After Su Shi came to my Great Liao, he has killed nearly 6,000 of our soldiers and injured more than 1,300 of our soldiers. ”
"Okay, got it." Without waiting for Ye Luren to continue speaking, Liu Liufu had already nodded to show that he understood.
"Speaking of this Su Shi, I have seen it twice, and I also have some understanding..."There is also nothing to hide, Liu Liufu put the first time the two met in the Meixiang Courtyard in Bianliang City, and later he went to visit Su Mansion and left in a fit of anger, and arranged for Abda to assassinate Su Shi in a fit of anger.
"I didn't expect that Abuda's assassination didn't kill him, but now he came to Daliao to kill our soldiers, this is really a snake that doesn't die, but is bitten by a snake." After Liu Liufu finished speaking, he didn't forget to sigh like this.
"Yes, this Su Shi is really different from other Song people, this person is hard to find, and he is not afraid of Brother Liu's jokes, and now our people are looking for him everywhere, but there is no news at all, and I don't know where he is hiding." Yeluren said with an ugly face.
The enemy slew your house, slew your servants, and then hid. Although it is said that the yard is very large and there are many places to hide people, it will still make the owner tremble, and he will be deeply ashamed.
"Could it be that he's gone?" Liu Liufu thought about one of the possibilities and said.
"No, it won't." Jereman replied very decisively. He wanted to say that Su Shi had threatened to come to Daliao to seek revenge on Liu Liufu, and now that the enemy was not dead, how could he leave.
But when I thought of saying this, I was afraid that it would stimulate Liu Liufu, and considering that his health was not good, these words could not be said.
Yelu Renxian had no choice but to find another excuse and said, "Until now, we don't even know how many people Su Shi has brought, and we haven't hit him hard, so how could he leave like this?" ”
"Well, that makes sense." After hearing this, Liu Liufu analyzed in his heart and came to the same result. Then I remembered something and asked,
"Renxian, what are you going to do next?"
"First send people to the Song State to protest to the Song Emperor, and at the same time strengthen the troops on the Liao-Song border to prevent the Song army from taking the opportunity to cause trouble. The last is to send heavy troops to encircle and suppress Su Shi, this is our land in Daliao, when can an outsider be allowed to commit murder here. Besides, the army always needs to eat and drink, and I'll see how long they can hold out without supplements. When I catch Su Shi, I must skin and cramp it, so that he knows the fate of our enemies. At the end of the day, Yeluren had already clenched his teeth tightly, looking like he was eager to eat Su Shi's flesh and blood.
"No." Who would have thought that at this time, Liu Liufu did not agree,
"Renxian, this Su Shi has an unknown commercial channel in his hands, if he can be captured alive, it is more beneficial for us to get this channel, if this Su Shi is caught, please be merciful." is worthy of being the third envoy of Liao, Liu Liufu is still thinking about the economic problems of Daliao.
"Okay." Yelu Renxian was just angry for a while, and he was just taking advantage of his tongue. In fact, he is very optimistic about Su Shi in his heart, if they can make Liao suffer so many losses, this person must be very powerful, he must have a good experience, and if it is even possible, it is not impossible to recruit this person to Daliao and allow high-ranking officials.
The two of them were talking about how to deal with Su Shi when they caught it, but they didn't know at all that the previous losses were just Su Shi's small test, and before Da Liao didn't hand over Liu Liufu, Su Shi still didn't punch hard.
...... The Su Jiajun, who everyone was thinking about, had already left the boundary of Zhuozhou at this time, crossed the Great Wall, and went to Fengshengzhou in the west.
Fengshengzhou is the name of the Liao people, and the Song people are still used to calling it Xinzhou, which is also part of the sixteen states of Yanyun.
After attacking Liangxiang, the Su army turned around, relying on their full cavalry, carrying forward the speed advantage, traveling more than 200 miles a day, and jumping out of the range of the Liao army's reconnaissance early.
Su Jiajun's hard-working side of training before is finally showing. They wore stab-proof suits, no heavy armor, and never brought more logistics materials, everything was prepared in advance by Su Shi, so that they could travel lightly and carry forward the speed advantage to the extreme.
There is a cloud in the art of war: if you travel 300 miles a day, you will be a general. It is said that only a truly strong army can have such a speed, and the Su family army is not far from a strong army with speed.
Hei rode in front, Su Shi's four-wheeled carriage and the bicycles of the angels followed, and it took only two days to travel from Dafang Mountain in Zhuozhou to Alum Mountain in Xinzhou.
Alum Mountain is not as simple as a mountain, there was originally a city here, but it was expanded after the Liao occupied it, making it a small city with a population of 20,000.
Compared to that time, the population was not small. But there are not many Liao soldiers guarding here, only one cavalry battalion, one infantry is near, less than a thousand.
The black rider suddenly appeared outside the city, and when he rushed in, it really scared the Liao people in the city. How did they not think about it, how could the enemy's cavalry appear in the alum mountain, which is called the hinterland?
Whether they want to understand it or not, the black cavalry entering the city is a disaster for the Liao people, when their sharp steel knives are raised high, in exchange for the Liao soldiers in the city The heads fell to the ground, and the blood stained the spot.
