Hassan frowned and said, "Your envoy is right! Then he said helplessly: "But this kind of thing is all in the emperor's thoughts, and it is not something that we can control." What's more, Yan Yun's strength is not weak, so it's no wonder that His Majesty is in a dilemma. ”

Tan Zhong frowned and said: "If His Majesty the Emperor finally chooses to belong to the Ming Dynasty, it will certainly be a great loss to my Great Liao Kingdom, but for the nobles in the Western Liao Country, isn't it bad news?" At most, my Great Liao Kingdom has lost an arm, but nobles like the Great King are afraid that they will eventually lose all their fiefdoms! Just like those party nobles and Tibetan nobles! They originally owned thousands of acres of fertile land, and how noble they were! But now, those who have lost all their land are lucky, and many nobles have lost their land at the same time, and their family property has been confiscated, and even their lives have been taken! This is really my knife for fish! Hassan frowned and nodded, and couldn't help but say, "What your envoy said can be described as to the point!" That's exactly what we're worried about! If His Majesty really finally attaches himself to the Ming Dynasty, do we still have a way to live? This is a no-go! ”

When Tan Zhong heard him say this, he only felt that the time was ripe, and immediately said, "Since the king also thinks that it is impossible, why don't you advise your majesty?" ”

Hassan smiled bitterly: "Everything that should be said has already been said, it's useless!" ”

Tan Zhong frowned, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

Hassan raised his head, his eyes flashing with a sinister glint, and said, "Your envoy must be proficient in the history books of the Han people, don't you hear the story of the envoy Shanshan during the Han Dynasty?" Tan Zhong's head moved, and his face showed thought.

Raising his head to look at Hassan, he frowned and said, "The king's words made me pause!" But there is a difficulty. I am willing to follow Ban Chao's example to attack and kill the Ming envoy, but the Ming envoy brought 10,000 elite soldiers as guards, but there are only more than 100 followers around me, and it is a fool's dream to attack and kill the Ming envoy! If the King can support us, we will be grateful. Hassan, however, was stumped and embarrassed.

Seeing this, Tan Zhong immediately said: "If the king helps us, I will definitely show my majesty the king's merits, my majesty has always rewarded and punished crimes, the king has made such a great contribution for my majesty, my majesty will definitely reward the king heavily!" ”

When Hassan heard this, his heart couldn't help but move. In his opinion, with the death of Yelu Longqing, the national situation of Western Liao is inevitably going downhill, and Western Liao is sandwiched between the powerful Liao State and the Ming Dynasty, I am afraid that sooner or later it will be divided and annexed by these two powers, in order to consider the future, we must plan early. Hassan said with a humble face: "It is my blessing to be able to serve His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Liao Kingdom!" Then he changed his words and asked, "I just don't know how the Great Liao Emperor will reward me?" ”

Tan Zhong said: "As long as the king makes meritorious contributions to my Majesty Da Liao, my Majesty Da Liao will definitely confer the title of my Da Jin!" At that time, the king and Yelu Hongjun were both canonized by my Great Liao Kingdom, and they could sit on an equal footing! In addition, I can also ask my Majesty Da Liao to canonize all the old territory of the Black Khan to the king! ”

Hassan's eyes lit up, and he asked urgently, "Do you mean this?" His Majesty the Great Liao Emperor can really give me back the old territory of the Black Khan? ”

Tanzhong is just talking, although Brother Ye Hugo asked him to send an envoy to Xiliao, he didn't give him such a big power, not to mention the canonization of such a large territory, how could Brother Ye Hugo easily promise! But at this time, Tan Zhong only wanted to instigate Hassan to work for himself, so he couldn't care about that much, and immediately said: "Your Majesty of our country once confessed when I left, as long as the Black Khan and other remnants of the country can help our Great Liao State, our Great Liao Kingdom will never treat them badly, as long as the credit is big enough, it is okay to return their old frontier to them!" Hassan was excited, and immediately stood up and bowed: "If I can restore the country, I am willing to serve the Great Liao Kingdom!" Tan Zhong was overjoyed, and hurriedly left his seat to help Hassan and pulled him back to his seat. After the conversation just now, the two sides felt closer to each other.

Tanzhong asked, "I wonder how many soldiers and horses the king can mobilize?" ”

Hassan said coldly: "The Khitans use us remnants just to win people's hearts, but in fact, they are guarding us in their hearts, so they don't give us much power. Like me, although I am a king, in fact, I just go to the court every day to discuss matters, and I do not hold any real power. Seeing Tan Zhong frowning, he hurriedly smiled: "But adults don't have to worry. The influence of our clan in the local area is not something that the Khitans can erase if they want to. Many of my Black Khan's generals and former ministers are now serving in the Liao army, and some of them are still loyal to our people. I don't dare to say that there are many people, but I can still mobilize 10,000 or 20,000 horses. ”

Tan Zhong couldn't help but say happily: "Great! ”

Zhang Jinsheng frowned and said, "I'm afraid one or two thousand horses are not enough!" Immediately, all eyes fell on him.

Zhang Jinsheng continued: "The Ming Army is a division of tigers and wolves, and its combat strength is fierce, and the 10,000 cavalry that guards Yelu from the cold rain is the best in the Ming Army. Even if there are 20,000 men and horses to raid, I am afraid it will not be their opponent! ”

Everyone couldn't help frowning again, and Hassan frowned: "Yes, the Ming Army is not an ordinary enemy, these people are simply devils born for killing!" Previously, 30,000 horsemen under the command of Yelu Yilie raided their camp, and they were defeated and suffered heavy losses! Even if I concentrate 20,000 horses, it will definitely be useless! Not to mention destroying them in one fell swoop, you will be killed and injured by them! If this matter does not succeed, the consequences are unimaginable! He looked at Tanzhong and said, "If you are not completely sure, it is better not to do it!" Otherwise, I'm afraid it will backfire! ”

Tan Zhong frowned and thought, he was a little depressed in his heart, he had obviously found a strong helper, but his strength was still not enough!

Tan Zhong's expression suddenly moved, and he hurriedly said to Hassan: "I have a way!" The crowd was curious.

Tan Zhong said: "Tomorrow night, Lieutenant General Yelu, the king of Dingbei, will celebrate his princess's birthday in the mansion, and he has invited Yelu Hanyu, and Yelu Hanyu has also agreed." That's our chance. ”

Hassan lost color and said: "Raid on the mansion of the king of Dingbei?!" Hurriedly shook his head and said, "This must not be, absolutely never!" Yeluzhong is not only the king of Dingbei, but also the royal family of Western Liao, who is extremely trusted by His Majesty, and raiding his mansion is not tantamount to rebellion? Even if it happens, Yelu Hongjun will not let us go! This is absolutely unacceptable! ”

Tan Zhong couldn't help but get annoyed, and shouted: "This can't do this, it doesn't work, can't it be possible to sit back and watch Yelu Hongjun fall to Daming?" ”

Hassan didn't know how to answer. Suddenly, his heart moved, and he hurriedly said to Tan Zhong: "Although we can't raid the Dingbei King's Mansion, we can ambush it halfway!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the three people present lit up, and Zhang Jinsheng high-fived and said: "This plan is wonderful!" An ambush halfway, whether it is successful or not, can make Daming and Yelu Hongjun suspicious of each other! ”

Tan Zhong nodded and said, "Let's do this!" Hassan immediately said, "Since your envoy also thinks it is feasible, I will immediately go and mobilize the warriors!" Then he stood up, bowed to Tanzhong, and said, "Your envoy will sit down for a while, and I will come when I go." Tanzhong advised: "We must choose absolutely reliable warriors who are not afraid of life and death, so as not to leak us after defeat!" Hassan said, "I know, don't worry." Then he hurried away. A few people in Tanzhong stayed and continued to drink, chatting without a word.

Soon after, Hassan returned and said to Tanzhong: "I have already sent an order, and I can mobilize five hundred warriors to carry out the mission by tomorrow night!" Tan Zhong nodded and said, "I'll bring someone over at noon tomorrow." Then he stood up and said to Hassan: "When the envoy returns, he will immediately send someone to report what you have done!" ”

Hassan was overjoyed and hurriedly bowed: "Everything depends on the adults!" Then he clapped his hands, and the two guards immediately came in with a heavy mahogany box. Tan Zhong understood and said with a smile: "The king is too polite!" Hassan bowed and said, "A little bit is not respect!" I will never forget the kindness of my lord, as long as His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Liao Kingdom will return the old land of Black Khan, I am willing to honor my lord with one million taels of silver every year! ”

Tanzhong's eyes lit up, he was just talking about using Hassan, but Hassan's promise made him really want to beg Yasan Hugo for him. Tan Zhong said: "The king can relax!" As long as the king makes meritorious deeds, and I speak for the king in front of His Majesty, this matter will definitely be done! Hassan hurriedly bowed: "Thank you, sir!" ”

Tan Zhong ordered Zhang Jinsheng and the black dog to take the wooden box, and then said goodbye and left.

At dusk the next day, Ye Yu Hanyu was dressed in military uniform, and under the protection of Yang Qi and other two hundred elites, he left the State Guesthouse and walked towards the mansion of the King of Dingbei.

It was not yet late, and the sun was only half setting, but the streets were already very quiet. A few doors were open to the ground, and a few pedestrians were walking on the street, the lights were sparse and listless.

Yang Qi looked around, showing a look of contempt, turned back to Ye Yu Hanyu and said: "This Western Liao is also a great empire, this Hu Si has the same capital as Bianliang, how can it be so much worse than Bianliang?" It is said that compared with Bianliang, even many state cities are much more lively than here! ”

Ye Yu Hanyu smiled: "How many countries in the world are like our Daming?" Even if it is as powerful as Liao, their Shangjing cannot be compared with our Bianliang! Yang Qi smiled; Therefore, our Ming people are the most amazing ethnic group in the world! Rich and strong! Ye Hanyu smiled and nodded, although he didn't say anything, his heart was also full of pride.

The group came to the outside of the Dingbei Palace. I saw that the mansion of the king of Dingbei was brightly lit, and the king of Dingbei, Yelu Zhongzheng, led a group of family members and civil and military officials to greet him at the door, and when he saw the arrival of the cold rain, he immediately greeted him with a smile on his face, and a group of family members and civil and military officials behind him knelt on the ground one after another, and bowed: "Welcome to the mother!" "Everybody looked excited.

Yeluzhong walked to Ye Yu's cold rain horse, bowed down and bowed: "Niangniang is here, and the minister is really honored!" ”

Yelu Hanyu and the others turned over and dismounted, and Yerutri smiled: "The king doesn't have to be polite. ”

Yeluzhong hurriedly asked: "Niangniang, please come to the table!" ”

Ye Yu Hanyu led Yang Qi and dozens of other female guards into the gate, and two hundred Ming soldiers stayed outside the gate.

Yeluzhong's family and hundreds of civil and military officials surrounded Ye Yu and entered the main hall. The main hall is brilliantly lit, decorated with the traditional scimitar tiger skin of the Khitan people, and the delicate maids dressed in traditional Khitan costumes hold copper kettles full of wine syrup distributed throughout the main hall. When Ye Yu Hanyu saw such a scene, he couldn't help but feel as if he had returned to the time of the year, when Da Liao was still there, and the palace banquet was like this.

Jeruzhong respectfully invites Jeremy Hanyu to take a seat. Ye Yu Hanyu came back to his senses, and did not postpone it, and walked up to the top and sat down. Yang Qi stood beside Ye Yu Hanyu with a sword, and dozens of other female guards were either guarding outside the door of the main hall or scattered throughout the hall.

Seeing that Yelu and the others were still standing, Yelu Hanyu smiled and said, "Everyone take a seat." After thanking them, they went to their seats and sat down.

Ye Yu Hanyu saw a woman sitting next to Yeluzhong, not very beautiful, but she was extravagant, knowing that she was the concubine of Yeluzhong, and she was also the protagonist of today's birthday party. So he took up the wine glass, and the maid beside him immediately came up and poured a glass of wine for Ye Yu Hanyu. Ye Yu Hanyu took the wine glass and said to the princess with a smile: "Today is the princess's birthday, I wish the princess eternal youth and eternal happiness." The princess quickly stood up with her glass in her hand, and the maid behind her immediately came forward to fill the princess's glass.

The princess held the wine glass in both hands and bowed down and said, "Thank you, Niangniang!" Niangniang can come today, it is really the supreme honor of the concubine! Then he picked up the wine glass, raised his head, and drank a glass of wine.

Ye Yu Hanyu smiled slightly, and also raised his head to dry the glass of wine, the female is a young woman, and her bearing is extraordinary. Everyone present couldn't help but have their eyes lit up, and their hearts couldn't help but feel admiration.

Ye Yu Hanyu beckoned to Yang Qi. The latter understood, and immediately walked up to the princess with a long wooden box. Putting down the wooden box, he said, "This is a gift from our mother to the princess!" The princess hurriedly got up and bowed to Yelutri: "Thank you for your generous gift!" ”

Yang Qi returned to Ye Yu Hanyu, and the princess returned to her seat. Yelu Zhongchao made a gesture to the chief steward standing at the door, who bowed slightly, then turned around and shouted outside, "Serve!" In an instant, the sound of footsteps continued, and I saw a team of maids dressed in traditional Khitan costumes carrying pots of precious and delicious fish rushing in, and all kinds of tempting aromas filled the entire hall in an instant.

The banquet was full of laughter and laughter, and the singing and dancing girls performed songs and dances in the middle of the main hall, making the atmosphere even more joyful. The two parties are close together, and it is like a family. ……

The wine is lit up, and the lively banquet is finally over. Yelu Zhong sent Ye Yu Hanyu and others out of the gate. Ye Yu Hanyu and the others stepped on their mounts and left the Dingbei Palace, returning to the State Guesthouse.

At this time, it was already late at night, the night was deep, there was no sound around, only the occasional chirping of night birds, there was not half a figure on the street, the houses were heavy, but there was silence.

Ye Yu Hanyu and his party walked on the street, the night breeze was blowing, and the originally groggy head couldn't help but sober up a lot. Yang Qi smiled: "Sister Mei'er, that princess is much uglier than Sister Mei'er!" Ya Yu couldn't help but smile. Yang Qi said proudly: "We represent the Ming Dynasty, that's why they are so respectful to us!" Ye Yu Hanyu smiled and said: "After the agreement is reached, they will all be the courtiers of the Ming Dynasty, so they will naturally be so respectful!" Yang Qi nodded thoughtfully, and then asked curiously: "Sister Mei'er, you said that after Xiliao is attached to our Ming Dynasty, who will the eldest brother send to guard Xiliao?" ”

Ye Han Yu smiled and said, "How do I know what my eldest brother thinks." Yang Qi said with a smile: "I think the eldest brother will definitely send Sister Mei'er to guard Xiliao!" Sister Mei'er used to be the eldest princess and general of the Khitan, and this Western Liao is also the inheritance of the Khitan, so it is very appropriate to send Sister Mei'er over to guard it! Ye Yu Hanyu didn't think so in his heart, but he didn't say it, just smiled slightly, and said with a smile: "This kind of thing is considered by the eldest brother, so we don't have to think about it." ”

Shout......! A sharp whistling sound suddenly came, and Ye Yu Hanyu and Yang Qi, who were talking, were stunned. At that moment, one of the knights in front of him dismounted with a scream. Ye Yu Hanyu frowned, and hurriedly shouted: "There is an ambush!" Almost at the same time, there was a sound of breaking the air on both sides of the street, and in the night there were only black shadows flying in the sky, and the sergeant guarding the cold rain was shot on his back!

However, after all, the Ming army is the elite of a hundred battles, although it encountered a fierce raid, but it was not chaotic, they immediately shrank around the cold rain of Ye Yu, and protected the cold rain of Ye Yu in the middle. The outermost sergeant raised his shield, while the sergeant behind him drew his repeater and prepared it for fire.

At this moment, countless black shadows rushed out from both sides of the street, holding scimitars in their hands and screaming straight up, all dressed in black and wearing ghost masks, menacing.

Yang Qi raised his eyebrows and shouted: "Release the arrow!" ”

The repeater was immediately fired, and the swishing sound rang out, and the locust-like crossbow arrows flew at the enemy in a short way! Seeing that the black-clothed people who rushed up were hit by arrows and fell to the ground one after another, the screams became loud! However, the repeater could not stop the enemy, and saw the enemy howl and crash straight into it!

The Ming sergeant used his shield to resist the opponent's round of attacks, and then lifted the shield upward, and then the long knife in his right hand stabbed out, piercing the chest of the enemy in front of him! And these attackers are also fierce and abnormal, constantly rushing forward, the Ming sergeant can hardly maintain the formation, and the enemy is caught in a melee! Swords come and go, roars like thunder, and swords and swords fly on the chaotic battlefield! One by one, the men in black were cut to the ground, and one by one the Ming soldiers fell in a pool of blood! Both sides are fighting to the death, and the scene is shocking!

The people who had fallen asleep were awakened by the sudden battle. Through the cracks in the doors and windows, I saw that the streets outside had become a bloody battlefield, all of them were terrified and puzzled at the same time. They all hid at home, and they didn't dare to come out.

Just when the Ming army and the man in black were inseparable, Ye Yu Hanyu suddenly heard a chaotic sound of footsteps rushing behind him. As soon as his heart moved, he immediately turned his head to look, only to see more than a hundred murderous black-clothed men rushing up from behind with scimitars!

Ye Yu Hanyu immediately said to Yang Qi: "You stay here!" Then, without waiting for Yang Qi to answer, he led dozens of female guards to rush towards the more than 100 enemies who were rushing in. The war horses galloped, and the iron hooves roared like thunder, although there were only a few dozen people, but the momentum was surging and amazing.

Ye Yu Hanyu led dozens of horsemen to rush into the middle of the enemy, and when he landed, he crashed into many black-clothed people, and the screams rang out. Immediately, the horse's hooves trampled and the long knife slashed, killing all the people in black to the point of flesh and blood! The man in black was horrified when he saw the other party coming so fiercely, and they retreated one after another, and then they were killed by the other party for a while, and they couldn't hold on anymore and collapsed!

Seeing that this group of enemies had been defeated, Ye Yu Hanyu did not chase and kill the defeated enemy, and quickly turned around and looked at Yang Qi. I saw that Yang Qi was leading the soldiers to counterattack, and in the melee of swords, swords, shadows, and flesh and blood, the man in black could no longer resist and was retreating! Although the number of the Ming army is far less than that of the other party, but the strength of the combat effectiveness is not comparable to the other party, I saw that the Ming soldiers are like tigers and leopards in the middle of the enemy, indomitable, roaring like a tiger, the sword light is like snow, and the enemy corpse is bloody. In the blink of an eye, the man in black couldn't hold on any longer, and fled with a loud shout. Those who didn't have time to escape were either ghosts under the knife of the Ming army, or they were captured alive by the Ming army.

Yang Qi ran to Ye Yu Hanyu and said, "Sister Mei'er, the enemy was beaten away by us and caught some alive. ”

Ye Yu Hanyu looked at the corpses strewn across the streets, and ordered: "Take the corpses of the captives and our own people, and leave here immediately to return to the hotel!" Yang Qi clenched his fists and promised, ran down and shouted. Immediately, the group set off again and ran quickly towards the State Guesthouse.

didn't go far, I saw Yang Gui leading a team of soldiers and horses to meet him, and the two sides returned to the state guesthouse together after converging.

It is said that such a fierce battle occurred on the street, which naturally alarmed the forbidden army in the capital. Receiving a report of a fierce battle in the streets, Alidari immediately rushed to the scene with 5,000 forbidden troops. However, when they arrived at the place, they saw only the corpses of hundreds of men in black scattered on the ground, and nothing else. Ali Dali felt that something was unusual, and while ordering someone to order the forbidden army in the city to be under full martial law, he rushed to the palace.

When Ali Dali arrived at the palace, Emperor Yelu Hongjun had already received a report and came to the top of the main hall. When Ali Dali saw the emperor, he immediately bowed and saluted. Yelu Hongjun asked urgently, "What happened?" I heard that there was a battle in the city? What's going on? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the last general just led the soldiers and horses to the scene of the incident, but he only saw the corpse of the man in black in one place, but he didn't find anything else!"

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
