Eagle Byzantium

Diognis, who received the emperor's secret edict, was still upright at first and asked if he was about to prepare for a ceasefire?

But Joceland told him that the emperor was obviously paralyzing the other party. "If the King of Fairness does not return to the Oxus River within the stipulated time, then the two sides will still default to belligerent relations, and any use of force to seize any location will be illegal." It’s legal.”

So Diognis did not dare to neglect. He asked Jocelan to be his deputy, and entrusted another deputy general, Bleptus, to be the cavalry guide, leaving Dim and his team to continue to defend the city of Tus. Then the guard officer led five thousand cavalry, quickly crossed the battle line, and headed directly for the Amur City.

The clouds were gloomy along the way, and there was a bleak scene everywhere. Villages and towns that had been looted and burned were everywhere. Since the war, this prosperous area had been destroyed seven out of ten. As far as the eye could see, it was a wilderness, with flocks of crows flying in the wind and frost. hovering inside. Diognis divided the entire cavalry into five parts, front, center, rear and left and right wings. Braptus led five hundred Sylvain light cavalry and galloped forward non-stop. The fly ash raised by the horses' hooves was in the air. The wind soon faded until it dissipated.

A group of barbarian cavalry who looked like Song army scouts were surprised to see this formation and walked back, apparently to report.

The appearance of enemy scouts was not unexpected. What really surprised Diognis was that he drove hundreds of miles and saw three camps, but they were empty. These should have been garrisons to control them before. The passage between Mofu City and Bukhara City, but the Song Army should have withdrawn it...

Diognis felt that his cavalry was almost on an armed parade in the wilderness.

But there was still a battle that took place under the Amur City. After Diogenes' cavalry rushed here, they found that a team of about 2,000 cavalry suddenly appeared from the other side of the Oxus River. Without support, they were afraid of being surrounded, so they evacuated flexibly.

In fact, Diognis didn't know that this cavalry was commanded by Yelu Dashi. They came all the way from Balakot City because they were afraid that the important town of Amur would fall into the hands of Gawain - but the facts verified Dashi's judgment, but there was nothing under Dashi's command. A decent main force could only choose to retreat when faced with Diogenes' superior cavalry.

"Is King Ping Ping's camp going to be exhausted?" Yelu Dashi was inexplicably sad and angry. He looked at the dry and endless grass on the river bank in winter, and at the black smoke rising from the Amur City, "It's over, everything is over... ..."

When the morning beads of the next day jumped up in the clouds like rubies and burned away the gloomy haze of the sun, Yelu Dashi and a few of his confidants led this group of cavalry back towards Balakot City like headless flies.

But on the way, several injured garrison soldiers, covered in mud and exhausted, blocked his way and told Dashi the sad news, "The citizens of Balakot launched a rebellion, and they Wang Tong was captured, tied up with a stone, and sunk into the torrent outside the city. He also closed the city gate and hunted us everywhere. We were lucky..."

Yelu Dashi was frightened and annoyed, his throat felt sweet, and he couldn't help but spit out half a mouthful of blood. He also rolled off his horse, looked in the direction of Balakot City, fell to the ground and burst into tears in despair.

The rest of the cavalry also dismounted and gathered around Yelu Dashi and cried bitterly.

Dashi took off his helmet, took out the ivory carving with a benevolent face, and placed it on the grass with great care, "I have traveled thousands of miles to the west, and my wisdom and strength are exhausted. I am afraid that I will never be able to recover the Liao Dynasty. I hate those people who hinder everything and ruin the good things." situation That's all, what's the point of saying this? The Holy Ancestor, the unworthy descendant Yelu Dashi will go back and die on the battlefield of Malu City (Mofu), and then serve you well underground. "

At this moment, bursts of laughter suddenly sounded in his ears. Dashi looked up in surprise and saw a girl in white clothes holding a mirror between the river waves and the grass. She had bright eyes and was riding on a big blue bull, using her fingers to Holding the Yelu Dashi, it seems to be saying, "It's too early to be discouraged. You are the chosen hero, the remnant of the Khitan, and you are destined to have a place on this stage."

In an instant, the girl and the green cow disappeared into the river, and were no longer traceable.

The green ox, together with the white horse, is the recognized ancestor of the Khitan tribe. Yelu Dashi suddenly realized something and immediately kowtowed to the river and said, "If heaven does not destroy me, Dashi is willing to continue to persevere and take reviving the Liao Dynasty as his own mission!" "

It is recorded in the historical records of later generations, "On the banks of the Wuhu River, where you can see the green bull and the young girl at the big stone of Yelv, there is finally Gejining (the ancient Chinese name for Ghaznavis), who has a land of thousands of miles, and creates a Buddhist kingdom in the western frontier. He enjoys two hundred years of success." "Yu Nian."

Of course, this is a later story. At that time, Dashi led the cavalry and did not go to Mov City. Instead, they went directly to Bukhara City. There were also a group of officials and guards stationed by the Emperor and Song Dynasty there. Their strength was much stronger than Balakot. few. Yelu Dashi relied on the military talisman seal letter here to collect all the weapons under his account, preparing to choose an opportunity to defeat Amur City and join the King of Justice.

After capturing the city of Amur, which had almost no defense, Diognis found that there were incomplete corpses everywhere inside and outside the city that had not been contained, wild dogs and foxes were everywhere, and the city walls and towers were in ruins, so he quickly mobilized all his soldiers to repair them. They built walls, dug trenches, and dug into the ground to collect water, food, and fodder.

At the same time, Emperor Fulu suddenly betrayed his faith. After the news of the capture of Amur reached Mofu City, the camp of King Daping was filled with anger again. Many people shouted that they would "cut off Zhao Liangsi's head to thank the whole army", while Zhao Liangsi was very angry. He complained that he was wronged, and expressed his willingness to go to Emperor Fulu's camp again to clear up this misunderstanding.

"Shouldn't it be better to send troops to recover the lost castle?" Lu Yihao shouted, otherwise the whole army would be trapped here unable to move.

In the panic, Xuanfu envoy Liu Yanqing took the initiative to ask for help and asked to lead 10,000 elite troops to recover Amur City.

But Zhao Liangsi also shouted loudly that the peace treaty was about to be concluded, and he must not provoke it on his own. This would actually give people evidence, and he recommended himself, "I am willing to go again, and I must clear up the misunderstanding before returning, and keep the King of Justice." Return to Bukhara safely."

Finally, Tong Guan stepped out of the curtain, stopped everyone's dispute with great momentum, and issued a verdict, "King Ping Ping's order, Zhao Liangsi can go and negotiate, while Liu Xuanfu prepares troops and horses to guard against any danger. "

However, when Zhao Liangsi arrived at the emperor's camp in Nishapur after a long journey, he was rejected. Gao Wen was also very interesting, "I don't want to see Zhao Liangsi, I only want to see the former Ye Dechen."

Zhao Liangsi had no choice but to go back and report the news. Three days later, Ye Dechen did not rest and ran all the way from his current post. When he arrived at the camp, he saw Tong Taishi and other senior officials standing above him, saying that he would give you a silver coin immediately. With the title of Doctor Guanglu, go to Emperor Fulu and he will ask to see you by name.

Ye Dechen almost collapsed to the ground in fright.
