Changfeng Thousands of Miles End Han Song

Chapter 668 Southern Expedition, Northern War

"Kill..."

In late July, frost had already fallen in the north.Autumn is crisp and the grass is luxuriant and the horses are fat. It is a good time to fight on a large scale.After seizing the Shangjing Road, the Jurchen soldiers who had been quiet for a while, raised their troops again and entered the Liao Kingdom's Zhongjing Road.

Guo Yaoshi, who was already the commanding officer of the Khitan Northeast Route, naturally led his troops to fight on the front line.In the past few months, his troops have had new expansions.The Khitan court did not supplement the soldiers, and the recruitment of soldiers and horses was done by their own family members.Without Yelu Yanguang's attention, it would be difficult for Guo Yaoshi's department to recover to the size of seven or eight thousand troops.

But there are gains and losses.Pharmacist Guo gained the trust of Yelu Yanguang, and his troops recovered to a certain strength. This time the Jin army had no choice but to fight hard again.The only thing that makes them happy is that these battles are not in vain.Emperor Lu of the Central Plains is watching.

The golden soldiers took a few months, but the soldiers they raised were strong and strong.When they were on Shangjing Road, the Liao army couldn't beat them, but now that they are weaker by three points, how can they beat them?

Not to mention that at this time, another brutal strife occurred among its top management.

The protagonist is Xiao Fengxian, who is known as the "Cai Jing" of the Liao Kingdom, and the supporting role is Yelu Yujian, one of the few generals in the Liao Army.

As mentioned above, Xiao Fengxian was the elder brother of Emperor Tianzuo Yuanfei, while Nayelu Yujian was not only a general from the Khitan clan, but also the sister-in-law of Emperor Tianzuo Wenfei.

This time because of the crown prince, Xiao Fengxian falsely accused Yelu Yujian of colluding with his son-in-law Xiao Yu—his wife was Concubine Wen's wife and conspired to put Jin Wang Yelu Aoluwo on the throne. This is the son of Concubine Wen and the eldest son of Emperor Tianzuo .This is a big land mine with a name of Tianzi, and the power of the explosion caused the whole Khitan to shake.

Concubine Wen Xiao Sesel hanged herself for it, her son-in-law Xiao Yu was executed, but Jin Wang Yelu Aoluwo, who was first eliminated by Xiao Feng first and then quickly, did not die.This man is the eldest son of Emperor Tianzuo, he is generous and well-respected by everyone, and he is popular both inside and outside the court.Emperor Tianzuo couldn't kill people casually, and Emperor Tianzuo didn't want to kill his son easily, even his daughter didn't kill him.But this was enough, the entire Nanjing Road shook the south bank, and the Khitan high-level people were panicked.

At that time, Yeluyu was still in the army. After hearing the news, he was frightened and uneasy, so he led more than a thousand troops and rebelled against the Jurchens with their flesh and bones.

Perhaps Yelu Yujian was more willing to serve the Central Plains, but he had no choice. He was in Zhongjing, thousands of miles away from China, and there were many barriers along the way. How could he go south to the Central Plains?It can be said that looking around, the Jurchen Kingdom of Jin is his only choice.

"Could it be that Emperor Tian Zuo wants to establish a prince?" Such a contradiction cannot suddenly burst out, there must be a reason.Lu Qian looked at Du Xing and asked.

"Your Majesty, even though Emperor Zuo was mediocre that day, he held the monarch's power rigorously and had no intention of establishing a prince. If there is a contradiction, perhaps it is because of Xiao Fengxian's younger brother Xiao Sixian."

"Earlier in the battle on the Shangjing Road, Xiao Sixian served as the commander of the Northeast Road..."

When Du Xing said this, Lu Qian interjected, "Is Guo Yaoshi's current position?"

"Exactly." Du Xing was worried about Yang Lin and Shi Xiu.These two people are very good in front of Guo Yaoshi now, but once they pass the Ming Road, Guo Yaoshi's current weight may only be rewarded with the position of the military commander of a province.At that time, it will be difficult for Yang Lin and Shi Xiu.

Grimace thought in his heart, and said without hesitation: "In the battle of Shangjing, the Liao army was defeated. Xiao Sixian even made a big mistake in the battle. He was the commander of the army, with more than [-] Fan and Han troops under his command, stationed in Longhua The location of the prefecture is very important. It can be said that the Jin soldiers easily overlooked the gap and took advantage of the unpreparedness of the Liao army. Xiao Sixian was defeated and scattered, and the soldiers suffered heavy losses. Xiao Fengxian was afraid that Xiao Sixian would suffer, so he rushed to call it "the defeated army. Fleeing with crimes, they will rob everywhere they go. If they are not pardoned, I am afraid they will gang up as robbers and become a disaster." Emperor Tianzuo obeyed his wishes. Xiao Si first went to the palace to wait for punishment and conviction, but he was removed from office. However, not long ago, he planned to make a comeback, which was blocked by Yeluyu..."

There is no need for Duchenne to say any more.

The grudge between Xiao Fengxian and Yelu Yujian can fully explain the current result.That Xiao Sixian must also be a key figure in Xiao Fengxian's group. Yeluyu would only watch him come back to life when he saw that he was stupid.It's just that Xiao Feng was superior in skills, and he saw the right time and struck a fatal blow.

In this way, Yelu Ao and Lu Ao are no longer expected by others. His mother is dead, his brother-in-law is dead, and his uncle has run away. Without the help from inside and outside, he can only be the fish and meat that is slaughtered in front of Xiao Fengxian. .

But since Emperor Tianzuo was able to fly into a rage, it proved that Xiao Fengxian's false accusation hit his pain point.In other words, does he already feel that his throne is unstable?
There was a hint of coldness on the corner of Lu Qian's mouth.Isn't it.Lost Liaodong, and then lost to Beijing, if Emperor Tianzuo's throne is as firm and unshakable as it was ten years ago, there will be ghosts.

"Your Majesty, the time has come. The intention of the Jin army is very obvious, which is to capture Linhuang. In this way, the Khitan will only have the Nanjing Road and the Xijing Road." The northwest road recruiting division further west is Tianzuo A rotten place where even the Emperor couldn't be bothered to escape.But Khitan's Nanjing and Xijing are both old lands in the Central Plains.

Zongze's eyes sparkled.Emperor Lu has long been interested in going north to regain the Sixteen Youyun Provinces, and now it seems that the time to do so is about to come.

The big picture he drew for Zongze was that Xixia was already dying. Even if Yang Zhi had led his troops to move to Hedong, it would be easy for the remaining northwest soldiers to capture the remnants of Xixia.

Now we have to look at the Liao Kingdom.If the Sixteen Provinces of Youyun cannot be successfully recovered, this will fundamentally deny Emperor Lu's plan.

Because Xixia is not someone who can be trusted. If he is as timid as Zhao Song and can rub him on the ground, how can Xixia be regarded as a touchstone?This can only be regarded as a stepping stone.

Only the Sixteen States of Youyun can be considered a true symbol.The broken Khitan is not that big of a deal. Defeating the arrogant Jurchen soldiers and completely solving the border troubles in the north is the first step to success!
Because everyone knows that the only major enemy of the Central Plains is the north.The Central Plains can only truly dominate the East if they completely subdue the northern minorities.

In the past, the representatives of the minority people in the north were the Khitans who were born as nomadic people, but now they are the Jurchens who were born as fishermen and hunters.

Lu Qi can only march west and south without completely defeating Jurchen.

Therefore, not only Zong Ze in the hall had bright eyes.Among the people present, one counts as one, and dozens of pairs of eyes are all releasing crackling electric sparks at this moment.

Even Emperor Lu showed excitement on his face.That said, no matter how good the round cake is, it is still empty, and there are no real tangible and gratifying benefits.

All his ministers knew the meaning of the 'Northern Expedition', and Emperor Lu knew it even more clearly.

I know that this is where real efforts are needed, but I also hope that the fighting in Lingnan can be ended as soon as possible.So that some of the elite troops can be mobilized.

"It is indeed necessary to prepare. Then send someone to tell Wang Qing and Zhong Xiang, tell them to enter Guangnan West Road, and then break into Nanyue. Tell them, when they enter Nanyue, I will allow them to do whatever they want." The voice came to the end. , a fierce murderous aura has gushed out.

The small South Vietnam is as big as it is today and is only comparable to the north-central part of the later Annan.A large area in the south also belongs to Champa!It is also the birthplace of the famous 'Champa Rice' in Chinese history.

Therefore, don't equate the current South Vietnam with the later Annan, let alone associate the population of the later Annan with the current South Vietnamese population.

Annan, the famous white-eyed wolf, had a population of 9000 million in later generations, ranking No. 13 in the world.

but now.The entire kingdom, including the barbarians within it, is only 200 million.The Chinese inside may only be in their early [-]s.

Emperor Lu did not regard the South Vietnamese as Chinese. Whether it was the historical reasons of later generations or the Yongzhou massacre in this era, he was very hostile towards them.Therefore, in order to destroy Nanyue, Lu Qian was willing to release two hounds that he had kept for a long time.Not only Zhong Xiang and Wang Qing, but also Manichaeism.

If Fang La was not involved, why did Lu Qian make people secretly win over Yang Yao?How can we legitimately poach Wang Qing?

You must know that Zhong Xiangjun also started from Manichaeism, and he also chanted "equal wealth, equal wealth and honor" as a slogan to win people's hearts. His army and Fang La's army are innately connected.

Nanyang was both big and small, and Lu Qian didn't think it would be of any benefit to him to entrust an additional vassal state with a Manichaean origin.

In addition, his sense of Zhong Xiang is not very good.This guy may have worked hard when he got up early, but when Lu Qian 'recruited' this guy, he was like the leader of the Taiping Army who broke into Nanjing City, and this guy has already fallen.

Therefore, on the political map in Lu Qian's heart, Zhong Xiang has no place.If possible, he would be happy to sacrifice an insignificant Luo Guogong, and replace some available people in Zhong Wang's two armies.

Naturally, this matter still needs careful planning.Now, Emperor Lu just asked them to pacify a small South Vietnam.

The Guizhou incident, after a period of spread and fermentation, to be honest, it can be said to have broken Shilin's heart.Due to the intervention of the Security Department and the Intelligence Department, things had already changed through word of mouth.

The man behind the coup was no longer the violent Geng Nanzhong, but his good student Zhao Huan.And the mastermind behind the black hand that killed Chen Guoting and the others was none other than Zhao Huan.

If you want to add a crime, there is nothing wrong with it.Put all the blame on Zhao Huan's head, this is the hardest blow to Zhao Song.

Not to mention that Xu Huiyan’s influence is also spreading.He and Zhong Shidao parted ways after escaping the Qi army's pursuit.The latter led the remaining troops to Guizhou, while he led his army to capture Xiangzhou and Liuzhou, and defeated several subsequent attacks by the Qi army.With an intelligence officer tipping off the information, what else could possibly go wrong?

But outsiders don't know the inside story, and they all think Xu Huiyan is utterly loyal.

He immediately took the opportunity to express his merits to the small court in Guizhou, and spent money and food to recruit local Ding Yong to suppress local minority people. His strength soon increased to 5000 people, or even more.

This is already a force not to be underestimated.

You must know that there are only five or six thousand sergeants in Guizhou City now. Counting the more than a thousand people brought back by Zhongshi Dao, the total force will not exceed eight thousand.Such a force is needed to respond to Yongzhou's request for help.

The Nanyue Kingdom waited several times, but still did not see any feedback from the small court of Guizhou, and finally couldn't bear the impatience and stretched out its minions to Yongzhou.They wanted to take advantage of the Qi army's undecided Guangnan West Road to gain as much benefit as possible.
