Chapter 206 - [Claiming the Emperor]

After a long time, he slowly came back to his senses and sighed: "That's it, although you intended to assassinate the widow, but after all, you did the widow a favor, if it weren't for this time, the widow would not be able to punish these Goryeo remnants, since you are dead, spare your wife and children!"

With a sigh, Murong Fu slowly floated out of the main hall, and the flame sword ignited the entire hall.

In an instant, the fire was boiling and burning, and the servants of the Zhuo Mansion had already come to inspect, and when they saw Murong Fu, everyone was so frightened that they knelt on the ground and begged for mercy. They didn't know how the fire burned, so they didn't dare to speculate, but they begged for mercy vigorously: "The little people are too late to save the car, please forgive the king, and ask the king to forgive your sins......"

Saying that, someone wanted to go to put out the fire, but Murong Fu called back, and said coldly: "You don't need to save it, let him burn it!" Commander Zhuo dared to entangle the remnants of Goryeo to assassinate the widow, so he let this Zhuangzi burn it, and it was good to burn it cleanly. It is also good to use his affairs to remind those ministers in the court, so that they know what the fate of betraying the widow is. ”

After speaking, Murong Fu turned around calmly and walked to the backyard, just wanting to ride the eagle back to the palace as soon as possible. When I arrived in the backyard, I saw that several servants of the Zhuo family were lying on the ground, all of whom died with a sword piercing their hearts, but the eagle had already disappeared.

"Could it be that someone stole my carving?"

Murong Fu was full of doubts, suppressed his anger and searched around, and finally found a servant who was still angry, and only after asking did he find out that it was Zhuo Bufan's wife who stabbed to death the servant who guarded the eagle and escaped.

"Bastard, it turned out to be this stinky woman's ghost, no wonder it can be said that he is a rebellious widow. Murong Fu suddenly realized, but when he raised his eyes, there was no shadow of a carving in the sky, and no matter how much he whistled and shouted, he couldn't call it back.

"If you are not of my race, your heart will be different, and it seems that you want to ensure that the Yan Kingdom is fine! Among the ministers, who marry a Goryeo woman, they must take a good look at it. Otherwise, if such a thing happens again after the widow goes out on the expedition, there will be a fire in the backyard. ”

With a certain thought in his mind, Murong Fu rode Ling Bo back to the palace in small steps, and immediately ordered Boss Wu to lead the Bloody Guards to investigate the whole city. It was really true, and it was found that there were several suspicious women among the minister's wives and concubines, all of whom were severely punished and killed on the spot.

Although there were some complaints among the ministers, the ironclad facts were in front of them, and no one was unconvinced. Women are like clothes, but after changing a few clothes, no one is willing to abandon Ronghua and Fugui and Murong Fu.

After this last clearance, the remnants of Goryeo were finally killed, and there was no hidden crisis in Yan State. Then two months later, the autumn harvest grain was put into the warehouse, and Murong Fu did not stay any longer, and led the army to the south.

At this time, four years had passed since the Song-Liao war, and the Liao State had lost a lot of territory in four years because of the emperor's dislocation and the unstable situation in the court. The Song army became more and more courageous, and had annexed the original territory of the Liao State, Nanjing Dao, and the army pressed the border, directly approaching the Zhongjing Road of the Liao State.

In the face of such a crisis, the Liao Emperor was distressed, the threat of the Song army had not yet been resolved, and after Murong Fu led the army to Huanglong Mansion, the army moved south and began to attack the two cities of Changchun and Taizhou in Tokyo Province.

Song and Yan attacked in the middle, and Qiao Feng led tens of thousands of troops to the north of Kyoto City to make trouble from time to time.

After a stalemate and another half a year, the Liao State was finally unable to support, and the Liao Emperor convened his ministers to discuss, and everyone thought that although the Yan State was fierce, it was only a small country after all, and the first trouble was the Song State.

So he submitted a peace document to negotiate a truce with Murong Fu.

At this time, Murong Fu had just captured Changchun Prefecture and Taizhou, and he could have continued to go south to capture the city, but in order to accumulate strength and temporarily stay in Liao to contain the Great Song Dynasty, he agreed to a truce.

When the truce agreement was signed, Murong Fu relied on the strength of his own troops, so he naturally put forward many conditions, and asked for a lot of silver and material compensation. So he continued to garrison Taizhou and continued to sit on the mountain to watch the tiger fight.

At the same time, they began to stabilize the newly captured cities and recruit troops to increase their combat strength.

In this way, after another half a year, Murong Fu's army expanded to 300,000, and the territory of Da Liao was taken away by the Song State. Murong Fu resolutely tore up the truce agreement and continued to plunder the Liao city in the south. The main force of the Liao State was resisting the Song army, and it was unthinkable that Murong Fu would tear up the truce agreement, and within half a month, Longhua Prefecture and Tongzhou were lost again, and they were taken away by Murong Fu.

When it came to Longhua Prefecture and Tongzhou, Murong Fu's army looked south, and it was not far from Shangjing, the capital of Liao. At this time, how could Emperor Liao still sit still, go south to think about the Song State to negotiate a truce, and want to organize an army to resist Murong Fu.

However, such a strategy could not be implemented, and Murong Fu sent envoys to negotiate with the Song army to encircle and suppress the Liao State together with the Song army. After several major battles, the Liao soldiers were defeated and fled, and their territory was reduced by three-quarters, so they had to retreat to the barren Ulaanbaatar generation of apprentices.

Moreover, in the process of Song Yan's joint army attacking the Liao State, Murong Fu deliberately waited passively for the battle, mainly letting the Song army contribute, and picking up the cheap from the side. After several major battles, although the Song army gained a lot of land, the soldiers were seriously damaged, and although Murong regained a small amount of land, the army increased instead of decreasing, expanding to 500,000.

At this time, if you want to continue to attack Liao, the road is too far, and the Song army's long-distance march is not good, so the army stops, and the Song general naturally runs to ask Emperor Song for credit.

At the same time, the Song army suffered serious losses in troops after the war, and the follow-up reinforcements could not keep up, so Murong Fu didn't want to, so he resolutely tore up the peace treaty of joint operations, turned his troops to counterattack, and successively took the two cities of Shangjing and Dadingfu captured by the Song army.

At this time, Song Liao scolded Murong Fu non-stop, but the benefits were all taken by him, and no one was helpless. Murong Futun's army of 500,000 was in Dading Mansion, approaching the Song realm, and the Song army hated it in its heart, but it had been at war with the Liao State for many years, and the troops were dry, so how could they organize an army to fight against his 500,000 army, so they only felt that they swallowed the loss they had eaten.

Murong Fu also knew that he couldn't start a war with the Song State at this time, so he accepted it when he saw it, and while repairing the book and making a truce with the Song State, he hurried to contact Qiao Feng at the same time.

A large amount of gold, silver and jewelry were given as bribes to the traitorous ministers of the Song court, and with these people blowing wind in the ears of the Song emperor, and 500,000 troops pressed on the edge of the Song realm, the Song state had to agree to a truce.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Murong Fu contacted Qiao Feng to fully annex the Liao State.

After another half a year of fighting, the Liao State was finally destroyed. Murong Fu did not take credit for it, and handed over the last Liao territory to Qiao Feng, who assisted the young son of the former Liao Emperor in the area of Ulaanbaatar to establish Northern Liao.

At this point, the territory of Yan has more than doubled, bordering the Song realm in the south, the Western Xia in the west, and the Northern Liao in the north. There is Qiao Feng in Northern Liao, and he will never go to war with himself, Song Jing signed a truce agreement, and he didn't dare to tear his face with himself for a while.

So Murong Fu took a leave of absence for half a year, and gathered soldiers and horses to attack Western Xia.

The small country of Western Xia, even in its heyday, did not have much territory, and after the death of the great general Helian Tieshu a few years ago, there were quite no generals available, and Murong Fu led 300,000 troops to force the border, which had frightened the lord of Western Xia and did not know what to do.

The strong army of Yan has never been defeated since it went south, and there are many martial arts masters in the army, so majestic that no one in the Western Xia dares to fight. The monarchs and ministers gathered together, and they were all discussing countermeasures, but they couldn't come up with a way to fight for a long time.

However, Murong Fu led the army to approach Western Xia, and did not immediately send troops to attack, he still remembered that Princess Yinchuan of Western Xia had a lot of affection for him, and first sent a post to make peace with Yan State.

Under all kinds of coercion, coupled with Princess Yinchuan's secret promise to Murong Fu, the lord of Western Xia had no choice but to agree to make peace and personally send his daughter to marry Murong Fu. And according to Murong Fu's request, while giving his daughter, he also gave away a city as a dowry.

After all, if Murong Fu attacked directly, he would lose more cities, and now that he could end the war with his relatives, it would be okay to lose a small city.

In this way, the strategy of Yan's attack was temporarily suspended, Murong Fu stepped up his time to develop the economy, strengthen the national strength, and raised it for another two years, the army expanded to 800,000, and the people of Yan lived and worked in peace and contentment, and they were thriving.

At this time, the time has come, and Murong Fu is no longer satisfied with the throne of King Yan, so he announced to the world that he will be the emperor.

At this point, Murong Fu's revival of the Great Yan was achieved in one fell swoop, and the capital was designated as Huanglong Mansion, the emperor was named Yan, and the year was named Wuxing, and the ministers and generals were wantonly divided. The Yan State was huge, far superior to the Great Liao in the past, and faintly became the head of the northern powers, directly suppressing the hegemony of the Song State. (To be continued.) )
