Aspiring to the Ten Kingdoms

Chapter 291
As soon as the Khitan withdrew from Shunzhou, Luo Youdu sent people to take over Shunzhou City, met Bao Rong, a well-known scholar in Shunzhou who had been acting as an internal response, and promoted him to be the governor of Shunzhou as a reward.

Bao Rong was so excited that tears filled his eyes, and he readily accepted.

Back then Liu Tinggao also invited him as governor of Shun Prefecture, Bao Rong dismissed it, but now Luo Youdu invited him with the same position, but this celebrity was so moved that he couldn't help crying.

Luo Youdu felt emotional when he saw it. During the Taiping period, people's hearts were unpredictable, but he was able to stick to his integrity in this troubled world. He must be a trustworthy good person.

The Khitan army went all the way north, Luo Youdu followed from a distance, and had no intention of fighting.

This has passed Shunzhou, arrived at the Miyun area, and has already stepped into the Yanshan Mountains.

The surrounding environment began to be complicated, and the terrain gradually changed.

The belligerent general proposed to pursue the victory, but Luo Youdu refused.

Khitan was clearly about to retreat, and at this critical moment, it would be unwise to rush forward to fight.

It might not be good to anger the sleeping emperor and leave a lone army to hold on to Tanzhou.

Tanzhou is located in the mountains and hills of Yanshan Mountain, built by mountains and rivers, it is extremely difficult to capture.

At the same time, Tanzhou is also located in the northernmost part of the Yanshan Mountains, and it is not worthwhile to stretch the logistics road for hundreds of miles.

Smart people reach a tacit agreement, you don't disgust me, and I don't disgust you either.

Let's get together and get together, don't mess around.

However, Luo Youdu obviously underestimated Yelvjing's revenge mentality of the sleeping emperor.

Yelujing didn't make trouble in Tanzhou, after all Luo Youdu followed behind.

But it was night when he withdrew from Gubeikou to the grassland. Taking advantage of the darkness, Yelvjing demolished everything that could be dismantled at Gubeikou.

Originally, Gubeikou lost its function after Khitan obtained Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, and it did not have commercial smuggling value like Yuguan, and it was abandoned for many years.

After Yelujing's random destruction, a city wall that was in disrepair was also collapsed.

Xiande five years, June 22nd.

When Luo Youdu came to Gubeikou and looked at the mess, he couldn't help cursing in his heart: "You son of a bitch, don't talk about martial arts." But he smiled and said to the left and right: "Look at the appearance of Gubeikou, I am You can think of Yelujing's incompetent and furious appearance, if he has the ability to tear down the Great Wall? It just so happens that he tore down the city wall, and I burned the grassland. Burn until all this area belongs to Da Zhou..."

Veterans like Han Lingkun, Murong Yanzhao, and Yuan Yan don't have much feeling for Gubeikou.

What the three of them thought about was this battle, how they performed, and what kind of rewards they could get when they returned to Bianjing.

This kind of veteran can play, but he has no ambition.

They have a lot of troops, status, status and wealth, but they don't have the ambition of generals to expand their territory.

They don't care about the strategic value of Gubeikou at all.

Pan Mei, Cao Bin, and Li Chuyun, however, looked at the grassland outside the Great Wall at the same time, each feeling excited.

They are generals of the younger generation, and Luo Youdu usually pays attention to ideological education, often instilling in them that a man should be famous outside the domain.

Instead of becoming a small prince and warlord in the base after making meritorious service, harming the people and doing nothing.

A real man should be like Han and Tang.

If you don't kill a few Xiongnu barbarians, you are worthy of being called a big man?
Don't destroy several countries, are you ashamed to say that you are a general of the Tang Dynasty?
Only with this kind of courage can the status and identity of the military commander truly stand firm, instead of deformed introversion, forming cliques, and not thinking about making progress.

Therefore, compared with the generals and soldiers of the Dianqian Division and the Guards and Guards Division, the Imperial Camp Division, which has been established for more than a year, may be slightly inferior in combat effectiveness due to experience and time.But the spirit and fighting spirit shown by the imperial camp division is far from being comparable to that of the rotten-minded Dianqian division and guards' pro-military division.

Under the encouragement of Luo Youdu, Pan Mei, Cao Bin, and Li Chuyun are all enriching their abilities, and they all hope that one day they can be as described by their bosses.Follow Luo Youdu, or lead troops up from Gubeikou alone, go deep into the grassland like Wei Qing, Huo Qubing, Li Jing, and Su Dingfang, to show the prestige of China, and let the four sides come to court.

Recovering Yanyou's hometown is the first step in achieving the goal.

Luo Youdu saw the situation of several core generals of the Imperial Army Division in his eyes, and was very satisfied.

People have to find something to do, otherwise it will be bad if they are full.

This is true regardless of civil servants or military generals.

At this time, the rear quickly came to report that Fu Zhaoxin had taken over Tanzhou.

Up to this moment, the Yanshan defense line has been controlled by Da Zhou.

Except for Jizhou City, Yanyou's hometown is all owned by China.

Luo Youdu stretched his waist, the pride in his heart was indescribable.

You must know that Yanyou's hometown was not really recovered until the Ming Dynasty in history. This time, I have accomplished a feat that I have not accomplished in the Song Dynasty for more than [-] years...

Of course, he knew that the Khitan he faced was different from the Liao, Jin, and Mongolia that he faced in the Song Dynasty, but no matter what, as long as he took Jizhou again, half of Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures would be taken back.

The other half had to destroy the Northern Han Dynasty in order to truly regain everything they had lost.

"Guohua, I'll leave it to you to sort it out here. How many people are needed to rebuild Gubeikou? You can find Fu Yanei... I will temporarily appoint him as the governor of Tanzhou, and he will recruit corvees to cooperate."

Luo Youdu gave the order.

Cao Bin promised loudly.

Luo Youdu turned around, looked at the surrounding generals, and said, "Let's go to Jizhou, take Jizhou down, and the battle is complete!"

A group of people rushed to Jizhou City mightily.

At first, Luo Youdu thought that Yelujing had given up on Yanyou's hometown, and that Jizhou should be like Shunzhou and Tanzhou, which would come down upon hearing the wind, and it would be fixed sooner or later, and he didn't want to encounter hard stubble.

Luo Youdu sent people outside the city to persuade him to surrender, and what he responded were bright arrows.

The arrow hit the toes of the persuading man.

If the opponent with this arrow intends to shoot and kill the envoy, the envoy's life will be lost.

Looking at the disgraced envoy who retreated, Luo Youdu squinted his eyes, looked at the figure on the tower and asked, "Who is this person?"

Song Xiong, who came with the army, replied: "Jizhou Regiment's training envoy Xie Li..." He frowned and said, "If he doesn't surrender, he will be in trouble."

Luo Youdu had never heard of this name before, and said, "How do you say it?"

Song Xiong said: "I have heard about his deeds. This person is Yelu Deguang's attendant. When he was young, he encountered wolves on the grassland. Both his parents died. He met Yelu Abaoji, the great ancestor of Khitan. I grew up with Khitan Taizong Yelu Deguang, studied with him, and fought many battles. Later, Yelu Deguang died of illness in Luancheng, and Yelu Ruan came to the throne. He didn't trust Xie Li, so he left Xie Li in Jizhou .”

"This man is generous and benevolent, generous and generous. Although he is a Khitan, he is very popular among the army and the people. Three years ago, a corrupt official was appointed in Jizhou. He colluded with profiteers and exploited the people. He complained a lot. Xie Li directly chopped off his head and went to Xiao Siwen. Plead guilty."

"Xiao Siwen pardoned him for his innocence... Since then, there have been no corrupt officials in Jizhou."

"If he resists desperately, the soldiers and people in the city may not turn towards us like Youzhou did."

Luo Youdu nodded when he heard the words, and said: "The only place where Yanyou's hometown is short is this Jizhou city, how can it still fall under this city?"

Immediately, he ordered all the siege equipment built for the attack on Youzhou to be dispatched, and by the way, all the crossbows, catapults, and oil from Youzhou City were transported.

Jizhou is a military center second only to Youzhou, and it is not easy to fight.

Fortunately, in order to attack Luo Youdu's military stronghold outside Youzhou City, Yelujing transferred Jizhou's oil and some of the catapults used to defend the city to the Khitan military camp near Youzhou, and they never returned.

The city wall of Jizhou City is solid, but the defense equipment in the city is seriously insufficient.

Jizhou City can be collapsed just by bombardment with equipment.

Taking Jizhou is only a matter of time.

Bianjing.

Fu Yu knocked on the door of Luo Zhai with ease.

Under the guidance of the concierge, Fu Yu came to the lobby.

Fu Qing'er came quickly with Chou Chou in her arms.

Mrs. Guo Guo, who came up behind her, took several positions.

Mrs. Guo Guo said anxiously: "Slow down, I'm worried about falling ugly!"

Compared with grandchildren, daughters are not at the same level.

Fu Qing'er came to the lobby, and Fu Yu handed over Luo Youdu's letter.

Fu Qing'er laughed and said, "I'm bothering Fu Neishi again."

Fu Yu made a bow, and said: "It's the duty, your Majesty's holy body is not safe, and I am in a hurry to return to the palace, so don't bother me."

Fu Qing'er was slightly taken aback, and bowed lightly with Chou Chou in his arms, and asked someone to send Fu Yu away.

Mrs. Guo Guo came in from a side door and said, "Is this Fu Neishi acquainted with you?"

Fu Qing'er shook her head slightly and said: "I've seen it a few times in the palace, and I don't think it's anything special."

Mrs. Guo Guo took Chou Chou from Fu Qing'er, and said: "His words 'Your Majesty's holy body is not safe' should not have been unintentional. He can hang out with the officials, so he won't be so talkative. His Majesty's condition may worsen." gone."

Fu Qing'er opened the letter with a bit of worry, and when she saw the contents of the letter, she couldn't help but beam with joy and said: "My husband has expelled the Khitan emperor from Yanyou's hometown, and the only thing left is the isolated city of Jizhou, which is about to return triumphantly."

Mrs. Guo Guo's expression was also slightly relieved, and she said: "It's so good. At this critical time, Mr. Xiao Lang is the number one in the military. If he is not in the center at this time, many accidents will occur. The sooner he can return to Beijing, the better."

Fu Qing'er silently nodded, and ordered someone to invite Zhao Pu.

Luo Youdu defeated Khitan on the banks of the Sanggan River, which caused quite a stir in Bianjing and the world.

As a feud of China, the Khitan entered the Central Plains as a barbarian, stole the Chinese tripods, and claimed to be orthodox China.

Everyone in the Central Plains felt ashamed. Luo Youdu defeated Khitan and was on the verge of regaining Yanyou.

Following the news that Luo Youdu drove the Khitan Emperor out of Yanyou, leaving only the isolated city of Jizhou, the land of the Central Plains shook even more.

Everyone in the Central Plains praised Guo Rong and praised Luo Youdu.

Talented people suddenly burst into inspiration, either in poetry or parallel prose.

Luo Youdu is like the biggest hot spot in this era, and everyone comes to catch a wave of enthusiasm.

Articles and verses such as "I heard that Luo commanded the army and returned to Yandi", and "Luo Xianggong chased Beidi" appeared endlessly.

Everyone celebrates Yanyou's hometown in their own way, the joy of regaining it after losing it.
