"Yang Zhi, what about you, what about your faith?" Li Wanhua said unconvincedly, a Song man who defected to the Liao State betrayed the Great Song Dynasty, what qualifications do he have to say faith; Yang Zhi was silent for a moment and said: "The world has never been a family and a surname of the world, but the world of hundreds of people, so there has been a change of dynasties in history, the Central Plains has experienced so many dynasties, and many long-term inheritance concepts have not changed, but what about the grassland? The Liao State is the most revered Central Plains culture, and it is still a divide and rule. ”

In order to rule the Han people, the Liao Taizong period began to adopt the rule method of "rule according to customs", and implemented the division of the Han and Khitan, so that the Liao Dynasty entered the era of centralized power from the form of tribal alliance. On the surface, it alleviates the contradictions between the Khitan and other ethnic groups such as the Han people, but this division itself makes the Khitan people appear superior, plus the difference in resources and power, in fact, in the Liao State, different ethnic groups are already divided into different levels.

Later Jin and Yuan continued this method, but they had no bottom line than the Khitans, and in the Yuan Dynasty, in order to maintain the rule of the Mongol aristocracy, the policy of "dividing the people into four classes" was adopted, and the Chinese were divided into four classes, first-class Mongols, second-class Semu people, third-class Hans, and fourth-class southerners. The Han people refer to the Han, Khitan, Jurchen and other ethnic groups in the territory of the former Jin State north of the Huai River, as well as the Sichuan, Dali and Goryeo people who were conquered by the Mongols later, and the people in the northeast of the Goryeo;

But to Yang Zhi's surprise, the spirit cat actually understood: "So after the Wuhu Chaohua, the Xianbei and other tribes have become Han people, but in the two hundred years of the Liao Kingdom, the Han people in the sixteen states of Yanyun are still Han people, and the Jurchens in Liaodong are still Jurchens, so there are worries about the Liao State now, and the rise of the Jin people in the Bohai Sea." Goryeo has been established many times, but it has always been difficult to expand westward, and the reason is that at the slightest disturbance, there will be a tribe in the country that will think about it, and other countries will take advantage of it. ”

Monk Huihong reacted, stopped, and said with emotion: "The battle of destroying the country is second only to the battle of Buddhism and Taoism, unlike the Liang, Tang, Jin, Han and Zhou, until the Great Song Dynasty, the regime has been ups and downs, and there is no lack of war, but the people's livelihood economy is recovering, and the war is limited to a few famous generals in Jiancheng, and most areas are decided. The casualties and displacement of the common people were greatly reduced, but because of this, the Great Song Dynasty was weakened to this day, and was threatened by the Liao State and Western Xia. ”

Yang Zhi smiled and said: "Do you have to defeat the Liao State in the north and Li Xia in the west to be considered a strong country, how about the Tang Dynasty, in the end, it is not the building that collapsed." If a country is a family, if it is prosperous, it will be a great construction, and if it is dead, it will be a disaster for the people to be linked, and if it is prosperous, the people will suffer; if it dies, it will also be the suffering of the people! We, the small people who are going to fight, as long as we can survive, it is a fortunate thing, master, hurry up and run for your life. ”

Monk Huihong was in a state of confusion, he was originally a poet and monk, and he was in love for a while, so he naturally heard the meaning of Yang Zhi's words, in a word, he did not believe in the Great Song Dynasty. The four of them had good martial arts, but they still walked a stick of incense before they reached the end of the road, and they could hear the sound of running water. The water flow is just outside the wall, and the civet cat carefully checked it on the wall with a torch, and listened to it: "The wall is made of bricks, very dry, there are no moss and those plants, listen to the height of the sound, the water flow should be under our feet, but I don't know what is outside the wall, I will take a look at the next brick first." ”

The civet cat pulled out a dagger made of iron, used his strength, and slowly warped down a brick, fortunately, there was no terrible liquid flowing out, and he could even feel a trace of light outside, very faint, but it was a real light. The civet took down brick by brick, for fear of making a big noise, and when the two rows of bricks were removed, they could see the outside, and everyone was relieved, there were a few stones outside the wall, and there was nothing dangerous, and outside the stone was a broken wall, and the light leaked in through the gap in the broken wall.

Yang Zhi stepped in to help the civet, and the speed of the two was obviously much faster, and they quickly cleared a gap where people could enter and exit, and drilled through, and it could be seen from the outermost broken wall, which was the wall of a well. There is an undercurrent below, but unfortunately the amount of water is not large, and children cannot escape from the water, and the way out can only be on it; the civet first opened a small hole in the wall of the well, observed it for five minutes, retracted its head and said: "This well should no longer be used, there is no manhole cover on it, the wall of the well is dry, I should be able to climb up, and then pull you up." It's dusk, or wait for it to get dark, Yang Zhi, just tell me about your plans. ”

The civet didn't know what was wrong with him, but now he felt that Yang Zhi had an idea, and it was a reliable idea, Yang Zhi smiled and said: "I plan to do so, if we can return to the ground, Master Huihong will pretend to be Lan Bin, and walk all the way with the two of you, and I will take Bao Xu all the way." I'm not familiar with Liaoyang, Lingmao, you tell me how to get around three places, one is the warehouse or big shop of Boluhuo, the second is the meeting place where we can get out of the city, and the third is the horse shed where the Jin army has the weakest defense. ”

The civet cat specializes in assassination, and as soon as he heard it, he understood what Yang Zhi meant: "You want people to know that Yang Zhi has arrived in Liaoyang, and in this way, even if the monk originally thought that Lan Bin and Yang Zhi were the same person, he now has to doubt it." However, I think it is better for Li Wanhua to play Lan Bin, she is a Taoist kung fu herself, and Lan Bin's kung fu is of the same origin, as for being shorter, you can be tall, most people have never seen Lan Bin, and they will not find this flaw, Master Huihong is the original face. ”

The civet cat is worthy of being an expert, he found a problem that Yang Zhi did not expect, and Monk Huihong agreed: "Hei Hanjia will never say it, if Lan Bin and Yang Zhi appear separately, but he says that the two people are the same person, then it seems to have ulterior motives." It's best to go up to a certain family's deep house compound, and we can even control the family at first, pretending to be this family for a while. ”

The civet shook his head and said, "Master, that's not good, if that's the case, as long as a master searches, he can find traces of our movement, and it is very likely that he will find this secret passage." This secret passage can be preserved in the end, even if the Liao State can't fight back, at least we can use it when we enter Liaoyang City in the future; Yang Zhi, let me tell you about a granary of Boluhuo and a stables with thousands of war horses under the Shifting Thorn Bao, you see, from the Bohai Restaurant and the Boluhuo's mansion should go like this. ”
