Waving his hand for Tong Guan to retreat, Yelu Hongji suddenly fell into anxiety.

This time he sent troops, he was confident that he would win, and he was prepared to swallow up the benefits of the Silk Road. He also wanted the Song Dynasty to continue to restore the annual coins, and at the same time, he also supported Xixia to continue to attack the Song Dynasty.

However, all his previous plans have come to nothing. Not only did the Song Dynasty have an extremely tough attitude, threatening the interests of the Silk Road and the Cold War, but now it even led a thousand fleets to the sea off Nanjing, the Liao Kingdom, with great potential to copy the Liao Dynasty. The posture of the country's back road.

Yelu Yanxi looked embarrassed and said: "The Song Dynasty is just a bluff! Don't let the emperor's grandfather be deceived by him. Once this opportunity is missed, it will be difficult for the Liao Kingdom to suppress the Song Kingdom."

Yelu Hongji's face was solemn. He naturally knew that everything the Song Dynasty was doing was to avoid war with the Liao Kingdom. Moreover, the Song Dynasty, which owned Zhentian Lei and the Royal Bank, had no shortage of weapons, money and food. In addition, with other With the numerical advantage, it will definitely become a serious problem for the Liao Kingdom in the future.

However, the Liao Kingdom was not sure of victory in this battle. If it attacked rashly, even if the Liao Kingdom defeated the Song Dynasty on land, the Bohai Bay would become the back garden of the Song Dynasty navy, and the Liao Kingdom's Nanjing, Zhongjing, and Tokyo would suffer heavy losses.

If the land attack fails, the Liao Kingdom's losses will be even greater. In other words, as long as the Liao Kingdom sends troops in this battle, whether it is a war or a peace, the Liao Kingdom will suffer heavy losses.

"Unless the Song Dynasty is destroyed in one battle, the Liao Kingdom will gain more than it loses in this war." Yelu Nanyin said to the point.

When Yelu Yanxi heard this, he immediately came out and said: "Grandfather, you must stop being rebellious and resist the rebellion. Now is a great opportunity to destroy the Song Dynasty. If you miss it, you may not have another chance in the future."

Yelu Hongji was immediately moved. He naturally united with Xixia to send troops at this moment, which was a good opportunity to destroy the Song Dynasty. However, he looked at Yelu Yanxi who was impulsive and rushed in, and then looked at his old body. He couldn't help but Secretly regretting it, if his son Yelu Jun was still alive, he would seize this opportunity at all costs and destroy the Song Dynasty.

However, there is no medicine for regrets in the world. He believed in the treacherous prime minister Yelu Yixin and killed his own son. As a result, the succession to the throne of Liao Kingdom was blocked.

It's okay to win this victory. If he loses, I'm afraid Yelu Yanxi won't be able to control the situation in the Liao Kingdom. He has experienced too many betrayals in his life and knows that internal conflicts are far more insidious than external conflicts.

"No! The Liao Kingdom still has a chance to make the Song Dynasty surrender!" Yelu Hongji said solemnly.

"What did the emperor's grandfather say?" Yelu Yanxi asked in surprise.

"Xixia!" Yelu Hongji looked to the west.

"Xixia?" Yelu Yanxi couldn't help but frown. The imperial grandfather was indeed old. When would the Liao Congress place its hopes on other countries?

Yelu Hongji nodded and said: "Yes, if Xixia wins this battle, the Liao Kingdom will lose its troops and will surrender the Song Dynasty at any cost. If Xixia is defeated by the Song Dynasty again, then there will be no need for Liao to send troops. , accept this million-dollar order and reap the benefits."

"I am afraid that the emperor's grandfather's move was inappropriate. If the Liao Kingdom does not send troops, how will it be explained to Xixia?"

Yelu Yanxi couldn't help but be stunned. This move indeed benefited the Liao Kingdom, but the Liao Kingdom might lose its trust in Xixia.

Yelu Hongji sneered and said: "Why does Liao need to explain to Xixia? Moreover, the Liao Kingdom restrained the Northern Song Dynasty in this battle. If Xixia is defeated, who can be blamed? Besides, if Xixia is defeated, it will need the support of the Liao Kingdom even more." How dare you be disrespectful to the Liao Kingdom?"

"what!"

Yelu Yanxi looked at the imperial grandfather in disbelief. He did not expect that the tall image of the imperial grandfather in his heart collapsed.

"The strong are respected. The grasslands have been like this since ancient times. This is a lesson you must learn to become an emperor. We will always only consider the interests of the Liao Kingdom." Yelu Hongji said disapprovingly.

Yelu Yanxi disagreed in her heart, but did not say it clearly. However, how could all this be hidden from Yelu Hongji.

Yelu Hongji sneered and said: "You think Xixia is willing to surrender to us, Daliao. If the Song Dynasty sends troops and the two countries share the Song Dynasty, Xixia and Liao can live in peace. If one day, Xixia has the opportunity to destroy the Liao Kingdom, Xixia Will you hesitate?"

Yelu Yanxi opened her mouth to refute, but was speechless.

Yelu Nanyin on the side quickly smoothed things over and said, "Grandfather, since Daliao has decided to wait and see, I wonder how Tong Guan should deal with it."

Yelu Hongji frowned and said: "If the two countries are at war, we will not kill the envoys, let alone the Liao Kingdom and the Song Dynasty. We have not yet fought. Tong Guan will be settled first!"

"The imperial grandfather was wise. Now Nanyin is in charge of the land Silk Road, and Tong Guan is in charge of the maritime Silk Road. There will definitely be a lot of goods to be exchanged between the two parties. Nanyin can just take this opportunity to allow the two major Silk Roads to intersect and have beneficial exchanges. No, earn more wealth for Daliao!" Yelu Nanyin said happily.

"allow!"

Yelu Hongji looked at Yelu Nanyin dotingly. Yelu Nanyin operated the Silk Road, bringing millions of dollars in revenue to the Liao Kingdom every year and increasing the national strength of the Liao Kingdom. This made Yelu Hongji dote on him even more.

At that moment, Yelu Nanyin sent an envoy with Tong Guan's souvenir and sent a ship to the fleet to trade.

No one expected that the Song and Liao soldiers on the front line were still in a tense confrontation, the caravans at the rear were conducting large-scale transactions, and that the Maritime Silk Road and the Overland Silk Road had completed their intersection under such strange circumstances.

What is even more incredible is that the situation in the world is actually on the battlefield of Song and Xia.

Xixia! Weizhou Jingsai Military Division!

Two groups of cavalry are fighting non-stop,

"Iron Buddha! Kill!"

Zhong Pu gave a cold shout and charged with the carbine in his hand. Behind him, the Iron Buddha with armored men and horses kept attacking the Xixia cavalry camp.

Tiefubutu was invulnerable to weapons and weapons. Wherever it went, the Xixia cavalrymen fell on their backs and were defeated.

The Kaizi horses on both wings took the opportunity to cover up the attack, and the Xixia cavalry was defeated. After losing a large number of men and horses, they abandoned their helmets and armor and fled.

"The Jingsai Army has been defeated. There is no more cavalry east of the Yellow River that can resist us. Send an order to destroy the Xixia farming areas as much as possible before the Xixia army arrives." Zhong Pu ordered coldly.

"Yes!"

A group of cavalrymen immediately split up and left. Soon, the entire Hengshan area was in flames of war. The original place where Xixia people sang and shepherded became a purgatory.

The tragic situation in the Hengshan area quickly reached the ears of Empress Dowager Xiaoliang, which immediately made her furious.

"The Song people bullied others too much!" Empress Dowager Xiaoliang said through gritted teeth.

The Song Dynasty and Xixia have had a long-standing grudge. If given the chance, both sides would want to kill each other. The Song army's actions in the Hengshan area are just replicating what Xixia did in the Song Dynasty.

"We cannot let the Song Dynasty act recklessly in the Hengshan area!" Renduo Baozhong gritted his teeth.

The Hengshan area is the southernmost agricultural land in Xixia, and it is also the main supplier of food to Xingqing Prefecture. Originally, the emergence of Pingxia City had caused the Hengshan area to retreat 200 miles, losing a lot of agricultural land. Now it has been occupied by the Song Dynasty. The cavalry's rampage was a loss that Xixia could not afford.

Weiming Awu frowned and said, "Be careful, Queen Mother. I am afraid that Song Jun's move is intended to lure the Queen Mother over."

According to Xixia's plan, the location to attack the Song Kingdom was not Jingyuan Road, but Huanqing Road, which was closest to Xingqing Mansion. With the defeat of the Jingsai Army, the Song cavalry was wreaking havoc in the Hengshan area, and the Xia army could not help but change direction.
