Chapter 976 The fateful Jinliao decisive battle
Shangjing Linhuang Mansion.

This city was the first capital city built on the mainland in the early days of Khitan's founding, and soon became a prosperous big city on the grassland. Even after the Wujing Road was separated, it ranked first in political status, and it can be called a Liao people. The real capital.

And the structure of this city is also very interesting. It is divided into two cities, the north and the south, which are connected in the shape of "日".

The north is called the Imperial City, which is hexagonal in shape and consists of an outer city and an inner city. Although the royal palace imitated the regulations of the Han people, there is still a large area of ​​open space in the inner city, which is used to set up felt tents for the Khitan nobles to live in. The city walls are tall and there are buildings. scull.

The city in the south is famous for its square shape, and its internal architecture is clearly the Han Chinese system. Of course, details such as etiquette and customs are not immune to the influence of Khitan, but overall it is still distinct in style, with relatively low walls and no watchtowers.

The Liao emperor and the Khitan nobles lived in the northern city, and the Han officials and common people lived in the southern city, which was in line with the original political system of the Liao Kingdom.

Now the Jin army is coming in, it is Nancheng, the Han people inside are all hiding in the house, even the generals and officials are avoiding, watching from the sidelines.

Yelu Hongji has to carry part of the blame. It is precisely because of Yelu Hongji's long-term rule that he treated the two ethnic groups unfairly, which led to the Han people standing on the sidelines when the country was subjugated. As a result, Wanyan Aguda led the crowd to drive straight in and easily hit the north city wall. Down.

"Oh?"

Such a process was considered smooth, and what surprised Wanyan Aguda even more was that he saw a tall banner standing on the city wall from a distance, and when he got a little closer, he found a Khitan wearing armor. Surrounded by many guards, the big man stands prominently under the banner.

The patron took a closer look and asked Wanyan Gao on the right: "Is this the Emperor of Liao?"

Wan Yangao said cautiously: "Judging from the appearance, yes, but it does not rule out the possibility that there may be a fake body to lure the enemy, and the real body to escape..."

"If it's a fake, just wait in the palace instead of pretending to be on the city wall. This person is Emperor Tianzuo!"

Wanyan Aguda sighed a few times in a surprised tone, and couldn't help sneering: "It's really untimely courage!"

After all, Linhuang Mansion is very large, and Beicheng is also large in size and has a large population. If Emperor Tianzuo disguised himself and sneaked out of the city, it would be really difficult for the Jin people to arrest him immediately.

With this in mind, before Wanyan Aguda attacked the city, he ordered Wanyan Zonghan to lead people to guard the main road, and he must not let Emperor Tianzuo escape, especially to the location of the Yan army.

Unexpectedly, this stupid king who allowed the civil strife to break out suddenly became more courageous, guarding the imperial city and not leaving, isn't this playing into his hands?
Yelu Yanxi's original plan was not even to stick to the imperial city, but to ride the snow-treading thousand-mile red to fight against the enemy. Xiao Fengxian and other courtiers talked about it, and almost hugged his thigh before guarding the city wall, watching a group of cavalry. Human Realm galloped over, and uttered a majestic shout: "The thief under the city, but Wanyan Aguda?"

Wanyan Aguda became more and more sure of his judgment, stood out from the crowd, and responded loudly, but maintained a bit of politeness: "Gold Master Wanyan Aguda, I have seen His Majesty the Emperor of Liao!"

Yelu Yanxi sneered: "You still consider me your majesty? Do you dare to step forward?"

Wanyan Agu laughed, walked out of the crowd, raised his head and said, "Your Majesty the Liao Emperor can see clearly, if the bow and crossbow are not aimed correctly, this king can step forward again!"

The two sides were fighting with each other, but they really saw each other clearly, their eyes pierced together, and invisible sparks burst out.

According to the records in "History of Liao", Emperor Tianzuo was deeply impressed by Wanyan Aguda in history. It was at a "head fish banquet", when the wine was full, Emperor Tianzuo ordered the chiefs to dance in turn. All the chiefs danced enthusiastically, but only Wanyan Aguda refused to say that he couldn't dance, and asked him to dance again and again, but he still refused to listen.

This caused a murderous disaster. Emperor Tianzuo secretly recruited Xiao Fengxian, a privy envoy, who said, "Agu is a hero, but he does not care often, so he can be punished with side affairs, otherwise it will cause future troubles." Xiao Fengxian believed that this is A rude person who doesn't understand etiquette and has never committed a crime, killing without reason will have a very bad impact, and it will hit the enthusiasm of the Jurchen tribes. Even if they really dare to rebel, the Jurchen clan will not do anything...

Then Wanyan Agu fought back, and three years later, the Kingdom of Jin was established, and the Kingdom of Liao was beaten to the ground.

"History of Liao Dynasty" was compiled by the Jin people. It is hard to say whether there will be some boasting and exaggeration of Jin Taizu in it. After all, there are several similar stories, all of which emphasize how Wanyan Aguda was feared by the rulers of the Liao Kingdom. It's like not being caught in the end, not to mention that any secret conversations are recorded in detail, and they must be questioned.

In comparison, the two sides of this world have a bit of the same meaning. Yelu Yanxi felt that Wanyan Aguda was a disaster early on, but he didn't kill the killer after all. At this time, while his eyes were filled with hatred, he couldn't help but feel deep regret: "This time Wait for Yingjie, it should have been destroyed long ago!"

But he had another question: "Wanyan Aguda, you led an army to attack me in Shangjing, are you trying to destroy me Daliao Guozuo?"

Wanyan Aguda simply responded: "Yes!"

There was a commotion on the city wall, and all the courtiers of the Liao Kingdom showed resentment, but Yelu Yanxi was a little calm, and continued to shout: "My Daliao and Yan Ding have an offensive and defensive alliance, if the King of Yan uses the banner of revenge for Liao, what should you do? "

Wanyan Agu said: "Your Majesty the Liao Emperor is too worried, even if there is no such banner, the King of Yan has long regarded our Kingdom of Jin as an enemy, there is no difference!"

Yelu Yanxi said: "Why is there no difference? Don't you want Daliao to send troops to help attack Yan?"

Wanyan Aguda's voice was full of sarcasm: "Your Majesty the Liao Emperor, although my Jin army cannot defeat Yan, the Yan army cannot destroy me. If the Liao army was replaced by the Liao army, they would have been killed long ago. How can the weak want to control the war of the powerful?"

Yelu Yanxi was stunned, and after a while smiled wryly: "So that's the case, no wonder you never sincerely sought Liao's support... It seems that I am still not used to it, Liao has become weak!"

Seeing that Emperor Tianzuo's tone was full of grief, Xiao Fengxian beside him felt that the Lord had humiliated his ministers to death, so he stepped forward and scolded: "Your Majesty is merciful and generous, allowing you Jurchen to win Goryeo and establish the Kingdom of Jin. Donate food for disaster relief, but now you dare to commit crimes? Why don’t you retreat quickly!”

Wanyan Aguda was even more contemptuous of this one: "It's ridiculous, allowing my Jurchen to establish a country in Korea is not kind at all, but timid. If you Khitan people have the courage, you should have wiped out a group of people who hate you, instead of breeding tigers! "

Xiao Fengxian was furious: "What did you say?"

Wanyan Agu made up his mind on this trip to slaughter the Khitan nobles, and then use the property in the hands of these nobles to buy the hearts of other ethnic groups, annex the Liao Kingdom to the greatest extent, and strengthen the Jurchens.

Since the Khitan is the enemy, we should try our best to spread the righteousness, and spread the voice: "Isn't it like this? In the past hundred years, the warriors of our clan have been hunting pearls and catching eagles for the Khitan people, risking their lives and risking their lives, and dedicating their utmost loyalty. , but what you get in the end is only exploitation and humiliation!"

"Flesh and flesh love, people's hearts are the same. You Khitan nobles have never considered the life and death of other ethnic groups. You should raise your troops to attack them. This is the case for my Jurchen, the Xi clan, and all other clans!"

"My country of Jin's previous disaster relief rescued the people of all ethnic groups, but there was no Khitan. This time when the Liao Dynasty was destroyed, the Khitan thieves were punished, and no ethnic groups were harmed!"

As soon as the words fell, Wanyan Gao who was beside him raised his arms, and the golden cavalry responded one after another: "Destroy Khitan!! Destroy Khitan!!"

It is undoubtedly wise to change from "destroy Liao" to "destroy Khitan". In fact, the core of the Liao state is the Khitan tribe, and to destroy Khitan is undoubtedly to destroy Liao. With a sigh of relief, even the eyes of the palace guards guarding the city wall fluctuated.

In contrast, Xiao Fengxian was trembling with anger when facing those hostile gazes: "It's nonsense, if there is no Khitan people, you are still uncivilized barbarians... Repay your kindness with revenge! Repay your kindness with revenge!"

This is true. Wanyan Aguda’s grandfather, Wanyan Wugunai, actively approached the Liao state’s high-level officials to gain trust, participate in politics, learn culture, and establish institutions and laws. Only then did the Jurchen tribe reach its current scale.

Without the Khitan people, the Jurchen, who lived between the white mountains and the black waters, might really be wearing animal skins and wandering in the mountains and plains. They were still uncivilized and pure barbarians.

So the two sides are entangled with each other...

"Why do you say these useless things, whoever wins has a reason!"

Only then did Yelu Yanxi continue to speak: "During the two hundred years of my Daliao rule, there have been many rebellions in the country. There are many ethnic groups who refused to accept my Khitan rule and committed rebellion. Those tribes will not only survive in later generations, but the Khitan people have already I don’t have many impressions! The Jurchens... Once you are defeated, you will become like this!”

What Xiao Fengxian said before, Wanyan Aguda was just mocking, but after hearing these words now, his face really changed for a moment.

If the Jurchen failed, they would indeed become one of them, and later books would only briefly record that the Jurchen tribe was born in the white mountains and black waters, rebelled against the Liao Dynasty, and destroyed them.

An understatement of a sentence submerged an ethnic group in the waves of history.

Only when the resistance was successful, their ethnic group was taken out to study in detail, where is the origin of the ancestors, when did they start to rise, who are the outstanding figures, whether the tribal spirit is worth learning, etc.

Whoever wins is justified. It is not tampering with history that is beneficial to oneself, but history will be biased towards the winner!

When the eyes of the people above and below the city stabbed together again, the gold lord Wanyan Aguda was already at the head of the pack, leading the way: "Siege the city! Destroy the country!"

At the same time, Emperor Yelu Yanxi of the Liao Dynasty personally bent his bow and set an arrow, displaying his ability to pierce Yang with a hundred steps while hunting, and the arrow shot out like lightning: "Suppress the rebellion! Kill the thief!"
