Aspiring to the Ten Kingdoms
Chapter 240
Chapter 240
Youzhou City.
Xiao family.
Shi Fang sat on the stool in the living room, closed his eyes and meditated.
Many places in Khitan today are no different from the Central Plains.
Status, family background, and connections are all sophistication.
These are what Shi Fang lacked.
Even if he is the deputy left behind in Nanjing, only soldiers within the system can be mobilized, and things outside the system, no one will pay attention to him, a scholar from a poor family.
When Liao Taizong Yelu Deguang or Liao Shizong Yelu Ruan were in power, they relied on the importance of these two emperors.
The rich and nobles in Youzhou City gave him some face.
When the sleeping emperor Yelujing came to power, Shi Fang obviously felt that his position had not changed, but his power and status had plummeted.
He knew in his heart that if Xiao Siwen hadn't liked the culture of the Central Plains and had taken a second look at himself, the number one scholar, he would have been demoted and punished to serve as an official somewhere.
Now the soldiers and horses of the Central Plains have besieged Youzhou City, and the [-] soldiers in the city alone are not enough to fight.
In order to gain the support of the gentry in the city and let them send the "family servants" in their mansion to defend the city, the Xiao family must come forward.
"Well, Shi Fang, I didn't look for you, but you came to my door?"
A red dress floated across the inner hall, a cold light flashed, and a long sword rested on Shi Fang's shoulder.
The sword was much longer than the normal three-foot green blade, it was four and a half feet long, and it was a two-handed long sword.
The person holding the sword is a young woman with a fierce look in her eyes at the moment. Although she is young and beautiful, she has a murderous aura that does not match her age.
Shi Fang didn't dare to move, and said, "If Mrs. Xiao wants to hold me accountable for not allowing the guards to enter the city, then kill me with a sword, so I don't worry about this matter."
The person who came was Xiao Hunian, Xiao Siwen's eldest daughter who wished she could be a man.
Xiao Hunian's sword edge slid across Shi Fang's neck, bringing out a small bloodstain, and said, "Do you think I dare not kill you?"
Shi Fang laughed and said: "Of course not! With the power of the Xiao family, there are a hundred reasons for killing me, a scholar who is not even considered a poor family. But if you want to let the left behind escape punishment, Mrs. Xiao really can't kill me!"
Xiao Hunian put his long sword back into its sheath, and said: "It is right not to let my father enter the city, but I have no reason to tell you. If he dies, you will be buried with him."
As she said that, she walked to the main seat, wrapped her hands around her chest, sat on the main seat carelessly, and said, "Tell me, what is the purpose of coming to Xiao's house?"
Shi Fang also broke into a cold sweat.
He has been in Youdu Mansion for many years, and he still knows a thing or two about Xiao Hunian's deeds.
As a Khitan native, Xiao Hunian was not keen on archery, but liked to wield knives and guns instead.Later, he worshiped a strange man as his teacher, learned the two-handed sword technique that was very popular in the early Tang Dynasty, and achieved great success in martial arts.
In order to practice his swordsmanship.Relying on her own identity, she went to compete with the death row prisoner, promising that as long as she could defeat her, she would be pardoned and innocent.
As a result, she killed sixteen death row prisoners in one month.
It wasn't until Xiao Siwen found out and severely stopped him that Xiao Hunian restrained his behavior.
This Mrs. Xiao's murderous intentions are not comparable to ordinary men.
Shi Fang made a bow and said, "I hope Mrs. Xiao can come forward and let the gentry and nobles in the city cooperate to defend the city in the name of the Xiao family. The soldiers in the city are really not enough. The people from the Central Plains encircle each other, four gates, 1000 people If you can’t get them all together, you can’t defend this city.”
He has been in Youzhou for many years, so he naturally knows what the gentry and nobles call servants.
Khitan's system is much looser than that of the Central Plains.
High-ranking officials and nobles keep some cronies by their side, called servants, but in fact they are no different from private soldiers, as long as the number is small and they don't do illegal or taboo things, no one will pay close attention to it.
Xiao Hunian said: "I can help with this favor. But there is a condition, I must have a certain command power, and I want to go to the battlefield!"
She looked at Shi Fang, speaking word by word, her eyes sparkling with excitement.
Different from ordinary women, Xiao Hunian always dreamed of being a general who commands thousands of troops.
It's just that Xiao Siwen didn't agree at all. The daughter of their Khitan Xiao family was either married to the emperor or a nobleman, so there was no reason to go to the battlefield.
Now that Xiao Siwen is gone, Xiao Kaiyin's life and death are also unknown.
In the current Xiao family, her eldest daughter, Xiao Hunian, is the oldest.
Shi Fang looked at Xiao Hunian, thinking about the crooked melon and split date in his hand, he had no choice but to say: "I'm sure about this."
Xiao Hunian said: "I'll contact the gentry and nobles in the city, and you can post a notice saying that the people in the Central Plains are cruel and love to slaughter the city. It has been decided that after the city is broken, Youzhou will be bloodbathed for three days. The strong men in the city are all helping .”
Shi Fang smiled wryly, "If this method works, I won't have to come here for help."
Xiao Hunian asked in surprise, "Why?"
Shi Fang said: "Because... the commander in charge of the siege in the Central Plains is called Luo Youdu."
Xiao Hunian got up abruptly and said, "Is that Luo Youdu who saved the enemy on the battlefield and did nothing to the common people?"
Shi Fang sighed, "Besides him, who else can there be?"
Xiao Hunian's expression changed slightly, and he said in shock: "So, he started planning Youzhou more than half a year ago?"
Shi Fang said helplessly, "We should have noticed..."
He still remembers that when he heard the news, he and Xiao Siwen sighed in admiration: "The ancient great sages are just like this."
Now think about how ridiculous I am.
Now there is almost no one in Youzhou who does not know Luo Youdu's virtue, no matter how much he threatens the people by massacring the city, no one will believe him.
If you are in a hurry, you may turn against him and make the situation worse.
Xiao Hunian said in a daze, "How do you plan to deal with such a powerful enemy?"
Shi Fang said in high spirits: "To show the enemy a weakness, they deliberately prevented Xiao Liushou from entering the city. They must have known the weakness of Youzhou City's lack of troops. We can lure them to attack the city and make them think that Youzhou City can go down anytime and anywhere. Attack day and night."
Xiao Hunian praised: "It's a good idea. The Son of Heaven is already on his way leading the Pishi army. When the Central Plains people can't attack for a long time, the veterans will be exhausted. The Son of Heaven can decide in one battle."
however!
On the second day, Shi Fang and Xiao Hunian met at the tower.
As far as the eye can see: the soldiers of the Central Plains are building a huge camp in full swing, and they have no idea of attacking the city at all.
In an instant.
Shi Fang: "..."
Xiao Hunian: "..."
Xiao Hunian left the tower and went straight to the back house.
"sister……"
A little girl came running swiftly and plunged into Xiao Hunian's arms.
"Yanyan!"
Xiao Hunian called out, and then said, "Where's mother?"
The little girl said: "I'm watching my second sister draw in the room!"
Xiao Hunian kissed the little girl's tender face, and said, "Go and fetch the air, my sister will play ball with you."
"Okay!" The little girl went happily.
Xiao Hunian walked into the house, looked at his mother and second sister, and said, "Mother, second sister, pack up your things and move to the west of the city at night. Once Youzhou falls, the Xiao family will bear the brunt."
Thank you book friend Guang Linggong for the five hundred rewards, and the hundred rewards for the scale of everything, thank you for your support!
