0485 [Lemu Huafeng]
After Yelu Chongguang left, Yelu was not idle.
Let the retainers secretly inform the generals under their command.
When he defected to the Kingdom of Jin, he had an army of 100,000 under his command.
Although Wanyan Aguda is very jealous of him, after all, he has just defected, and he has made great contributions, so it is not reasonable to split these 100,000 Liao troops immediately.
In desperation, Ah Guda could only pinch his nose and admit it, and handed it over to Wanyan Zonghan for disposal.
Wanyan Zonghan's methods are much more clever, dividing, winning over a group, and suppressing a group.
Gao Qingyi and Xiao Qing, who were once capable of seeing Yelu Yujian, have been drawn to their side.
With the help of Xiao Qing, Gao Qingyi and others, Wanyan Zonghan split the 100,000 Liao army little by little, disrupted and reorganized.
However, he didn't dare to go too far, just take his time, otherwise he was afraid of causing Yelu Yujian to resist fiercely, and the gains would outweigh the losses.
If Yan Zonghan is given another two or three years, the 100,000 Liao army will be able to completely become his own private army by means of moisturizing things silently.
It's a pity that the time for this is still short, and last year, he went south and collected a lot of Song troops, and the reorganization of these Song troops took away a lot of his energy, so that more than half of the 100,000 Liao troops did not have time to disrupt and reorganize.
Today, of the 60,000 troops under the command of Wanyan Lou, more than 30,000 of them are Liao troops under the command of Yelu Yujing.
This is also the reason why Wanyan Lou didn't wait to see him.
I just want to use this method to prevent Yelu from touching the military power.
It's just that this method is too rough, and whoever comes will be dissatisfied in my heart.
The stakes are very high, Yelu Yu didn't dare to reveal it casually, the people he was looking for were all generals he trusted and had been suppressed by Wanyan Zonghan in the past two years.
Do not suffer from few, but suffer from unevenness.
These generals themselves have been suppressed, and seeing that Xiao Qing and Gao Qingyi, former colleagues, have been reused one by one, climbing on their heads to show off their might, will there be no resentment in their hearts?
Not long after, Han Funu, Taishi Nu, Ugly Monk, Xie Lao and other four people, on the pretext of visiting the sick, quietly came to the camp of Yelu Yujian.
These four people are all Yelu Yujian's henchmen, and they were all suppressed by Wanyan Zonghan.
Han Funu said with concern: "Is the prison army sick? ”
"Out of the way."
Yelu Yu waved his hand, sat down and said, "The four of you are my confidants and favorite generals, and I have important matters to discuss with you today." ”
As soon as the words fell, the four of them immediately knelt down on one knee and crossed their hands on their chests: "We swear allegiance to the general!" ”
It is the etiquette of the Liao State to cross your hands and hug your chest, and you don't need to kneel on the ground at ordinary times.
Kneeling and bowing is only used on important occasions and is a sign of allegiance.
"Good!"
Yelu Yu was overjoyed when he saw it, and stretched out his hand to signal, "Everyone, please get up." ”
The ugly monk asked with a solemn face, "General, I don't know what to discuss?" ”
"Wanyan Zonghan plans to attack me, wanting to trick me back to Datong to destroy my mouth."
The faces of the four of them changed in unison, and their hearts were horrified.
Yelu Yujian continued: "After I die, Wanyan Zonghan will not let you go, and he will definitely find a reason to execute you and replace them with Jurchens to take over your subordinates. ”
This is not to intimidate them, but it is.
Those who should be co-opted have already been co-opted, once Yelu Yu sees his death, there is no need for the ugly monk to stay, in order to prevent future troubles, Wanyan Zonghan will definitely kill the killer, it is nothing more than a matter of time or time.
Taishi Nu was indignant and said: "I have long been tired of looking at the golden dog, the general just orders, I am the first to charge into battle!" ”
"Command, General."
Han Funu and others also responded.
Seeing this, Yelu Yu nodded with satisfaction, and then said slowly: "The Emperor of Qi sent someone to contact me and wanted me to belong to him. ”
Hearing this, Xie Lao, who had been silent, groaned: "Qi Country is a good place to go. ”
Han Funu echoed: "Yes, although the Han people in the Central Plains are repeated, they are much better than the uncivilized golden dogs. Moreover, the Central Plains is rich, and Bianjing is even more prosperous. ”
These words attracted everyone to nod and praise.
The upper-class aristocrats of the Liao State have always been pro-Han, admiring the culture of the Central Plains, and yearning for the city of Tokyo.
In the area of cultural export, the Central Plains Dynasty compared with the surrounding countries, which is simply a dimensionality reduction blow.
The most typical example is Goryeo, which was earlier a vassal state of the Zhao Song dynasty and accepted the canonization of the Zhao Song dynasty. Later, he was beaten by the Liao State and forced to declare himself a vassal to the Liao State, but after the accession to the throne of Goryeo Wenzong, he immediately went to Zhao Song again, asking for the restoration of diplomatic relations and paying tribute.
Regarding the reason why Goryeo seeks to restore diplomatic relations, the Song people and horses are in one sentence: "The ministers of Goryeo are also in the court, and they want to admire the Chinese style and give ears to the year."
Lemu Huafeng, four words are concise and clear.
And it is recorded in the "History of Goryeo" that Goryeo Wenzong dreamed of being a courtier of Zhao and Song: [Hui said to himself, tasted dreams to China, and wrote poems to record his events]
After so many years of cultural influence in the Central Plains, the Goryeo people looked down on the barbarians of Liao and Jin from the bottom of their hearts.
As soon as the envoys of the Zhao and Song dynasties went, the whole country of Goryeo celebrated and received them ceremoniously.
Compared with the envoys of the Liao State, the treatment is simply very different.
Seeing that his subordinates agreed, Yelu Yu began to discuss the matter and asked, "How many soldiers can you mobilize now?" ”
After some consideration, Han Funu replied, "About 18,000 people." ”
"So little?"
Yelu Yu frowned slightly.
Han Funu said helplessly: "The remaining more than 10,000 soldiers in the camp are now under the jurisdiction of the Gaoqing descendants, and we can't mobilize them." ”
At this time, the ugly monk on the side proposed: "There are more than 3,000 people under Gao Foliu and Ah Ba, and if you count the two of them, there are 25,000 people." ”
"No."
As soon as the words fell, he was interrupted by Xie Lao, only to see him snort coldly: "Gao Foliu and Ah Ba have long taken refuge in Gao Qing's descendants and become lackeys under the door, and now they are obedient to Gao Qing's descendants. ”
"Ten thousand eight is ten thousand eight!"
Yelu Yu didn't want to make any more trouble, and the fewer people who knew about it, the better.
He continued: "When you go back, prepare as soon as possible, and wait for my orders at any time!" ”
"The last general commands!"
The four of them answered in unison.
Yelu Yu waved his hand: "Let's go back, so as not to be seen by Wanyan Lou and others." ”
……
Late at night.
The camp of the Jin army was silent, except for the soldiers who were on patrol duty, the rest had already fallen asleep.
Yelu Chongguang covered his stomach and walked in the direction of the thatched house.
The army camped, if it was short-term, did not build toilets, the soldiers dug a small pit by themselves, and after pulling it, buried it with soil and trampled it.
If it is more than three days, it will be necessary to build a toilet.
Basically, it is built on the edge of the barracks, far away from the camp tent and water source, and the soldiers will choose the nearest toilet when they go to the toilet, and there is a special person responsible for cleaning up the feces and urine every day.
At the same time, there are strict restrictions on soldiers going to the toilet in the army, and soldiers are required to solve the problem before dawn as much as possible.
Halfway through, Jelu Chongguang was stopped by a patrol of soldiers.
"Who?"
The team led by the team was vigilant, and the soldiers in the rear were holding swords, and they would capture them if they disagreed.
"Logistics camp account room, out of the account and toilet."
Yelu Chongguang said, took out the waist card and handed it over.
After taking the waist card and checking that it was correct, the team was waving his hand: "Hurry up, the time limit is a quarter of an hour." ”
"Thank you."
Yelu Shigemitsu smiled and ran towards the bathroom.
After coming to the toilet, he looked around, and when he found that there were no other soldiers, he took out a small iron whistle from his bosom, took it in his mouth and blew it three times.
"Tani Gu Gu ~"
Crisp birdsong, coming from the whistle.
The sound is so vivid that if you close your eyes and listen to the sound, it is almost the same as the song of a thrush.
Three birdsongs were especially loud under the silent night sky.
Not long after, in the wilderness outside the barracks, there were also three cuckoo songs.
"That's it!"
After putting away the whistle, he took out a piece of paper and buried it in the ground, and then built it on top of it with three small stones.
The placement of the stones seems to be disorganized, and there are some rules faintly.
These methods were taught to him by the scout camp.
When he had done this, he clapped his hands and went back to sleep in the tent satisfied.
The next day it was dawning.
Hundreds of people carrying buckets began to clean the toilets.
One of the youths, taking advantage of the Overseer's inattention, quickly pulled out the stone and removed the note from the dirt.
……
The south bank of the Sanggan River.
In the camp of the Qi army.
Qiu Niu rushed into the tent with an excited face, and reported: "Your Majesty, Yelu Chongguang has sent news, and Yelu Yujian has agreed!" ”
"Oh?"
Han Zhen's face was overjoyed, he took the note and glanced at it, and then said with a smile: "This Yelu Yu is really the master who doesn't see rabbits and doesn't scatter eagles, but it's good to be greedy, so it's easy to control." ”
"What does he want?"
Han Shizhong on the side said curiously.
"He wants me to give him a guarantee."
Lighting the note with a fire fold, Han Zhen groaned: "Since Yelu Dashi has proclaimed himself the king of Liao, I will promise him a prince." If he leads his troops to surrender, I will reward him with a king of Jin. ”
"Crowned king?"
Han Shizhong, Wei Da and other generals were slightly stunned, they didn't expect Han Zhen to be so generous.
Han Zhen took a moment to say: "A chaotic north is what I want to see, Yelu Dashi is a generation of heroes, unwilling to be subordinate, even if the Jin people are driven away in the future, it is difficult to guarantee that there will not be another Liao country." Therefore, I need someone to balance Yelu Dashi, and at the moment, Yelu Yujian is a good candidate. ”
Today's Han Zhen's vision is not only limited to the gains and losses of one city and one place, but also considers the post-war layout.
After this battle, the Kanato will be driven back to Tokyo Province.
As for the rest of the territory, he can only swallow one Xijing Dao at most, and he has no energy to manage Shangjing and Zhongjing anymore.
If left unchecked, Yelu Dashi will quickly grow bigger, and with the ally of Western Xia, the power cannot be underestimated.
The north wants chaos, but this kind of chaos cannot be separated from Han Zhen's control.
Therefore, Han Zhen needs to support a person, a Khitan person, to balance Yelu Dashi.
And Yelu Yujian is the best candidate.
In terms of identity, the children of the clan, in terms of strength, there are soldiers and generals under his command, and the most important thing is that this person is easy to control.
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Han Shizhong's eyes lit up with admiration.
Han Zhen instructed: "Don't pat yourself on the back, you will send the news back to the Jin army camp and tell Yelu Yu to see that he will not do it tomorrow night." Han Shizhong and Wu Bao led the cavalry battalion and 10,000 foot soldiers to respond, and if the Jin army was in chaos, they would take the opportunity to attack the camp. ”
"The last general commands!"
Han Shizhong and Xiao Wu responded loudly.
