A knife in love

Chapter 1991
Although both Li Qiufeng and Qi Jiu had served in the army, they had never participated in a war between the two armies.Listening to Feng Wei's narration of the tragedy of the battle led by Li Cunxu and Yelubei, even though he didn't see it with his own eyes, he was still thrilled.Wang Xiaoyu thought to himself, what's the point of hundreds of soldiers fighting together?If it were me, sneaking into the enemy's tent at night, and killing the enemy's commander-in-chief, the enemy's army would have no leader, and they would disperse, so why bother?
I only heard Feng Wei continue to say: "Yelu Abaoji was in Yizhou City, waiting wholeheartedly for Yelubei to lead the army to join him. But after waiting for a whole day, he did not see Yelubei's shadow. It was snowing heavily at that time The sky is getting bigger and bigger. Although the sky is completely dark, there is vast white snow everywhere, which makes the space between the sky and the earth hazy, not completely dark. The longer Yelu Abaoji waited, the more anxious he became. He went to the south gate of Yizhou City in person and held Looking down the city from the crenel, I saw more than a dozen big fires lit in Li Cunxu's barracks opposite, illuminating the camp brightly. Except for the tents and fires, there was no human figure to be seen, only occasionally passing by. There were a few neighing sounds of war horses.

"Yelu Abaoji looked at it for a while, his face was livid. Seeing the emperor's appearance, the ministers and generals who followed him up the city wall knew that he was extremely angry, and they were afraid that he would kill someone to vent his anger. So they all cowered and hid On the one hand, he was afraid that Yelu Abaoji's head would fall to the ground. Seeing the appearance of the crowd, Yelu Abaoji became more and more annoyed. He ordered people to summon the envoy sent by Yelubei to the top of the city, and shouted loudly at him. , Where did the prince's troops go?!

"The emissary was Yelubei's confidant. He risked his life to enter Yizhou City to report to Yelu Abaoji, lest Yelu Abaoji suspect that Yelubei had other plans. Before he left, Yelubei kept saying that he Then he will lead the army to the city of Yizhou, and attack Li Cunxu's army with the Liao army in Yizhou city. The envoys rushed into Yizhou city with all their might, and did not waste time all the way. It is estimated that Yelubei's army will only need to spend five or six times. In two hours, they will arrive at Yizhou. But until late at night, Yelubei's soldiers and horses were nowhere to be seen. Yelu Abaoji asked sharply, but he was speechless and could not utter a word.

"Seeing the envoy's appearance like this, Yelu Abaoji was shocked and angry. At this moment, the ministers and generals who were loyal to Yelu Deguang stood up one after another and accused the envoy of deceiving the king. Yelu Deguang hid aside. He didn't say a word at all, so as not to be suspected by Yelu Abaoji that he was involved in this matter. Seeing this situation, the envoy's heart became clear, knowing that these ministers and generals scolded him for deceiving the emperor, but secretly reminded Yelu Abaoji, Yelu Abaoji He didn't arrive after the time expired, but deliberately deceived the emperor, and refused to be ordered to join the Liao army in Yizhou City. He only waited for Li Cunxu to succeed, so that he could be the emperor of the Daliao Dynasty.

"Yelu Abaoji naturally understood the meaning of the ministers, and his face became more and more ugly. He stared at the envoy of Yelubei, and said solemnly, your master wants me to look good, so you can be the emperor yourself, right? The envoy was shocked, Just as he was about to kneel down and explain, Yelu Abaoji suddenly pulled out his sword and slashed at the messenger's neck.

"The envoy rushed to Yizhou under the order of Yelvbei, and he already had the heart of death. Even if the emperor wanted to kill him in normal times, he would have to lead his neck to be killed. It's just that he didn't expect the emperor to kill him. He would slash and kill himself with his own hands, and a martial artist who was suddenly put on his neck by someone's sword would naturally want to fight back. So Yelu Abaoji's sword was still a few inches away from his neck, and without thinking, the messenger pulled out the curved With the knife, he slashed at Yelu Abaoji's chest.

"Yelu Abaoji is the emperor on horseback. Although he hasn't practiced advanced martial arts, his skills are quite vigorous. When he slashed with his sword, he didn't mean to kill the envoy, but he just put the sword on the envoy's neck and forced him to ask questions. The envoy Yelubei didn't lead the troops to meet up, what was he planning. But he never expected that the envoy would dare to draw his saber to face each other, he was shocked, only felt a cold light flashed in front of his eyes, the scimitar in the envoy's hand had already struck his chest.

"This envoy is a dead soldier by Yelubei's side. He is highly skilled in martial arts. Although his spears and halberds are far inferior to Yelu Abaoji's battle skills, he is much better than Yelu Abaoji when it comes to swords and fists. Liao on the top of the city There were countless ministers, generals, and sergeants, but none of them thought that the envoy would dare to draw his sword and slash at Yelu Abaoji, so they were all stunned and forgot to rush forward to save him.

"In the blink of an eye, suddenly a figure flashed over, with a flash of cold light in his hand, and everyone heard a loud "Dang", and the scimitar in the messenger's hand flew out. Yelu Abaoji originally thought that he would definitely die Under the envoy's scimitar, I didn't expect someone to rush in front of me and knocked the envoy's long knife flying. I was surprised and happy. I only heard the man shout loudly, you **** dare to assassinate the emperor, you are not afraid of being killed. Killing the Nine Clans?!
"It was only then that Yelu Abaoji realized that it was the second prince Yelu Deguang who saved him. Seeing him stabbing at the envoy with a sword in his hand, Yelu Abaoji hurriedly shouted, don't kill him, keep him alive! It's just that he Before he finished speaking, there was a popping sound, and the long sword in Yelu Deguang's hand had pierced the messenger's throat. The messenger's throat was rattling, and he couldn't speak anymore. He opened his eyes wide, With all his strength, he retreated back quickly, trying to get rid of the long sword in his throat. Yelu Deguang rushed forward, kicked out his right foot, and kicked the messenger's chest. Several sternums of the messenger were broken. Under the severe pain, the messenger flew backwards, fell over the crenel of the city wall, and fell straight to the bottom of the city.

"Yelu Abaoji grabbed the crenel and looked down the city. I saw a big hole in the snow below the city, presumably it was made when the envoy fell down the city. Yelu Abaoji pressed his hands on the crenel, his eyes closed. Staring at the city closely, his face was extremely ugly. Yelu Deguang knelt down on the ground, and said in a trembling voice, the minister only wanted to escort, but couldn't hold back for a while, disobeyed the emperor's will, and killed the assassin, please Your Majesty The son's crime.

"As soon as Yelude Guang finished speaking, the ministers and generals standing around suddenly knelt down. Seeing the second prince, ministers and generals all kneeling, the sergeants were so frightened that they turned pale and followed suit. In an instant , Thousands of people knelt down on the city wall, only Yelu Abaoji stood upright in front of the crowd, leaning on the edge of the city wall with his hands on the crenel. He saw the crowd kneeling on the ground, with their heads resting on the big block of green bricks. On the ground, everyone didn't even dare to lift their heads. They were obviously frightened and knew that they must never be angry with everyone at this time. Therefore, he glanced at Yelude and said in a deep voice, "You saved my life, why not?" Is there a crime? Now that the villain is dead, in your opinion, who is the mastermind behind it?"
