Aspiring to the Ten Kingdoms

Chapter 562 Precocious Trust
Xiao Hunian looked at Luo Youdu with complicated emotions.

Unexpectedly, Luo Youdu's image as a lolicon has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

At this point, Xiao Hunian had no other thoughts.

Apart from Luo Youdu, there is no second strength in this world who can help her avenge her.

What's more, her ambition is to become a famous female general who will go down in history like the legendary woman.

Besides the enlightened Luo Youdu, who else is willing to give her this power?
Xiao Hunian did not shy away from saying some things that were taboo before.

Of course, many of the news are outdated. The new king of Khitan ascended the throne, and the ministers and state affairs in the court will naturally undergo earth-shaking changes.

So many years have passed, and of course it has lost its usefulness.

But there are many details, such as the undisclosed conflict between the royal Yelu family and the descendant Xiao family, the chaos within the Yelu family and the Xiao family, and the contradictions between the Li family and Sun family of the Khitan upper class nobles and the Erhan Yikang family.

It is normal to analyze this kind of contradiction from the perspective of rational interests.

If there is no conflict between the Yelu family and the Xiao family, there is nothing wrong with the Yelu family, but it is because the Xiao family does not stand behind.

The existence of the descendants of the Khitan Xiao family is a kind of political compromise.

As for the conflict between the Li family, the Sun family and the Erhan Yikang family, it is even more reasonable.

Under the decree of Yelu Abaoji, most of the Khitan nobles changed their surnames to Han.

In addition to the Yelu family and the Xiao family, the Li family and the Sun family that Li Tang bestowed on the Khitan have become the favorite surnames of the Khitan nobles.

Two Han Yikang refers to Han Zhigu, Han Yanhui, and Kang Moji, the Han ministers appointed by Yelu Abaoji. The three of them were the main heroes of the Sinicization of Khitan and the founding of the country, and they were highly valued by Yelu Abaoji.

How could there be no conflicts as the Han people seized the interests of the Khitan people?

The Khitan regime was established not long ago, and so far no emperor has successfully ascended the throne.

It can be seen that Khitan has not completely moved from barbarism to civilization, and internal turmoil is inevitable.

It was Ye Luxian and Xiao Chuo who really made Khitan move towards civilization in history...

But the news from East Khitan, there is no news of internal turmoil in East Khitan.

According to the news from the spies, although Khitan split into three parts, its strength was greatly affected.However, Yelu Bishe, the new Khitan chief of Eastern Khitan, was benevolent and courageous. After losing control of the west, he decisively expanded eastward, reused Han Derang and Yeluxiu brother, and surrendered a large number of Jurchen. soldier.

The Eastern Khitan government was clear and stable, and they also opened up a large number of fields on the former site of the Bohai Kingdom to grow food, and the development was not bad.

Their strength has declined, but they still cannot be underestimated.

Luo Youdu thought for a while, then suddenly smiled, and understood the reason.

The East Khitan beat Jurchen and Goryeo again, obviously it stimulated him.

Under the threat of foreign enemies, led by Yelu Bishe, Yelu Wuzhi, Yelu Talie, Yelu Xianshi, Han Derang, and Yeluxiu, old and new capable people, gave way to each other, resulting in the current situation of one mind.

A strong foreign enemy is the best way to restrain internal troubles.

Thinking of this, Luo Youdu had a plan in mind.

The solution to this situation is extremely simple, and there are generally two methods.

Big win or big loss.

After a big victory, the foreign troubles will be lifted and the spoils will be distributed unevenly, which will make the hostile parties even more displeased.

The same is true for a big defeat. The people who fail will feel uneasy and blame each other, and the old hatred will be multiplied.

Luo Youdu murmured in his heart: "The heavier the pressure is now, the stronger the rebound will be then."

Luo Youdu thought for a while before answering, Xiao Hunian couldn't help but glanced at him. Seeing him thinking carefully, he remembered the notes left by Luo Youdu in the study, and felt the great talent and strategy of the founding king of the new dynasty in front of him. .

In the evening, Hu Bo, Chai Kehong, Xiao Hunian, Xiao Chuo, and Zhou Xiaomei left the palace.

Zhou Zong was going to participate in the poetry meeting with Li Yu, and did not enter the palace with Zhou Xiaomei.

Luo Youdu specially arranged for a carriage and escort of soldiers from the Imperial Battalion Division.

Huber got old and boarded the carriage, and Zhai Kehong, who was old and strong, also boarded the carriage in order to talk to Huber.

Xiao Hunian does not give in to her men, disdains to ride in a carriage, and rides a war horse when she goes in and out.

Xiao Chuo also has some Khitan habits, but it is not convenient to ride a pony on the street, so he shared a ride with Xiao Hunian.

Feeling Xiao Chuo twitching in his arms, Xiao Hunian said, "It still hurts!"

Xiao Chuo said stubbornly, "It doesn't hurt anymore."

Xiao Hunian asked, "Is it your idea to eavesdrop today?"

After all, Xiao Chuo was a child, and said with a smile: "Little sister Zhou is too stupid. I can guess what she thinks. She is three years older than me, and she has lived on a dog. I just confuse her, and she took me to see her." See you sister."

After a pause, she said: "I'm also worried about Sister! Your Majesty called Sister out suddenly, I'm afraid he will be bad for Sister."

Xiao Hunian couldn't laugh or cry, grabbed the rein with one hand, rubbed her head with the other, and said with a bit of shame: "You're young, you're just thinking wildly, what do you know?"

Xiao Chuo said dissatisfied: "I don't understand what, and I'm not a child. It's just that sister thinks I don't understand..."

Xiao Hunian was so angry and funny, he said, "Then what do you think you know?"

Xiao Chuo said in an old-fashioned way: "Isn't it just a matter of men and women! Just like Zhou Xiaomei, hehe, his father wants her to participate in the poetry meeting and meet Mr. Ruyi. She is unwilling to live or die. It just so happens that Concubine Zhou Xian got "Neon Clothes and Feather Clothes Song", They are clamoring to enter the palace to study. Didn't they fall in love with His Majesty and want to marry His Majesty?"

Xiao Hunian had a look of disbelief, and said, "Is it true?"

Xiao Chuo was dissatisfied and said: "That's not true. When our sisters chatted privately, we mentioned this matter. Some said that Pan Weizheng, who is in the next class, is good-looking. He will definitely be a handsome man like his father Pan Mei in the future. Miss Zhou But she said that she wanted to marry the most powerful person in the world who could pamper her and protect her. Hey, who else is there besides Your Majesty?"

Xiao Hunian was stunned for a long time. Are all girls from the Central Plains so precocious?
She came back to her senses, looked at her younger sister with some amusement, and said, "What about you! Who do you want to marry? Sister will be your matchmaker?"

Xiao Chuo snorted contemptuously: "They're all a bunch of brats, I don't want to be with simple-minded people like them, I can get mad..."

Xiao Chuo was only 11 years old this year. He was taken captive by Luo Youdu to the Central Plains.She was already precocious, learned to observe words, learned to flatter and flatter, and teased Huber so much that she treated him as her own daughter.

After being honed in life, she is a dimensionality reduction blow to her peers in the school.

Xiao Hunian felt a little distressed, and couldn't help pulling back his strength.

"ah!"

Xiao Chuo cried out in pain, and said aggrievedly: "Sister, can you hit me a little lighter next time, it still hurts now!"

Xiao Hunian said: "Don't be serious, do you think His Majesty will intercede for you?"

Xiao Chuo was puzzled and said, "Didn't you all say that your Majesty is benevolent? He forgave Miss Zhou, how could he hit me hard on a little girl..."

Xiao Hunian pinched his little sister's face and said, "You, what do you think of Your Majesty? He is the founding emperor who can be compared with Emperor Qin, Han, Wu and Tang Zong. Do you really think you can hide it from him with your little thoughts? Really? Think he can't see that it's Miss Zhou who you instigated! How can your little cleverness compare with other people's great wisdom?"

Xiao Chuo was scolded, his self-esteem was hit, and he lowered his head.

**********
After the first snowfall, the temperature in the north dropped at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In order to avoid the snow and cold.The tribes living in Mobei began to gradually migrate south.

The farther to the south the warmer it is, this is the experience of the grassland people.

This is why the prairie people always choose to join the invaders in autumn and winter.

This southward move means being close to the Central Plains, and the closer to the Central Plains, the easier it is to plunder.

In the process of moving south, many tribes learned that the Mongolian Kelie tribe invited the grassland tribes to go south to plunder the Central Plains, and they responded one after another and joined forces.

Since the Khitan seized the Yanyun Sixteen States, there has been no such looting.

After all, Khitan is the overlord of the grassland, and no one dares to provoke him.

They don't know how strong the Central Plains is, but no matter how strong the Central Plains is, can they go deep into the Mobei grassland to deal with them?

Nomads have no advantage over nomads.But for the farming peoples, the smaller the tribe, the less afraid they are.

In the clouds of Datong.

Yelv Dilie, who had been keeping an eye on the movement in the north, was stunned to learn that his elder brother Yelufu Sage and the Wu family beggars from the Kelei tribe had assembled such a large team.

"There are 10 horses? Why are there so many? Are you crazy?"

Yelu Dilie gasped, feeling his heart tremble.

Yelu Haisi's expression was also very ugly. At first they thought that the opponent's army was at the top of fifty or sixty thousand.

As a result, it expanded wildly to a number of one hundred thousand, which was completely beyond their expectations.

Yelu Haisi said with a wry smile: "The weather in the north this time is too abnormal, worse than we predicted. Without the restraint of Khitan, many tribes attacked and annexed each other, so many tribes did not reserve enough food for winter. In previous years, we could Relying on the food from the Central Plains to survive the winter. Now that the Central Plains has cut off the supply, some people return to their old jobs in order to survive for the tribe. Some people are purely for fun. After all, it has been a long time since they went south to hunt grass valleys."

Yelv Dilie knew what it meant to join in the fun.

Small tribes have the way of survival of small tribes, without the status of big tribes, they walk with the army, expand their military power, and strengthen their prestige.

Don't expect them to fight, these little tribes outrun anyone when it comes to situations.

If all goes well, they will not fight for fat meat, but will follow with a few sips of soup.

But no matter what, more than [-] is a quantity, which is enough to shock people.

Yelu Dilie hesitated for a while, then said: "Send the order, the enemy is strong, all troops retreat to the defensive line, do not attack automatically."

He paused for a while, and said: "You go and inform Yang Ye yourself, and tell him not to rush to send troops, but to retreat to Ningwu Mountain to garrison first."

After Luo Youdu captured Yan Qizhou, the status of Khitan stationed in Yunzhong, second only to the emperor's Yelu House, felt that the Northern Han Dynasty could not defend it.

In order to prevent the Central Plains from storming Yunzhong, he built military villages in the four mountains around Yunzhong, including Baideng Mountain, Cailiang Mountain, Ningwu Mountain, and Hengshan Mountain, echoing Datong Yunzhong and defending Yunzhong City.

Yelv Dilie is confident that as long as the four mountain defense lines are in place, it will be difficult for anyone to capture Yunzhongcheng.

This line of defense is specially used to deal with the Central Plains, which is good at attacking cities. At this time, it is more than enough to deal with grassland looting and reinforcements.

Yelu Dilie watched Yelu Haisi leave, and said in his heart: "Brother, you must understand what XX means."

Not fighting, and not being strong enough to dare to fight are two different concepts.

Yelu Dilie didn't want to be an enemy to his elder brother, let alone offend the Central Plains, so he could only use this method to resist the enemy, and neither would offend.

Baishuize.

The tents of grassland tribes that can't be seen to the side are built messily in the wilderness.

Yelufeng Sage, the beggars of the Wu clan, and more than a dozen prominent tribal chiefs gathered to discuss business matters.

Yelufu Sage pointed to a hanging map and said: "Let's go from here..." He drew a half circle on the map with his hand, and said in his mouth: "From Fengzhen to Zuoyun, and then to Shanshan Yin, and then went south to Yanmen Pass."

As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately stood up and objected.

"What are you doing here? Don't leave Datong in the cloud, and go around to Yanmenguan?"

It was Xi Zhuo, the patriarch of the Uguri tribe who spoke.It originated from Wuluohou in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and in Tang Dynasty it was the Wuluo Hubu in Shiwei.At the end of the Tang Dynasty, the Shiwei family disintegrated and operated independently under the name of the department.It is adjacent to the Shiwei tribe in the east, Dilie and Mongolia in the west, and the Khitan tribe in the south.

With soldiers in hand, the confidence to speak is different.

Yelufu Sage said: "Datong Yunzhong is not easy to fight. It is the defense line that Yelu Wuzhi, the first wise man of Khitan, specially built for the Central Plains. The mountains and cities are connected. Once we enter the territory of Datong Yunzhong, we will be at risk of attack from all sides. We are not good at attacking cities, and there is no point in attacking the clouds."

Xi Zhuo looked at Yelufu Sage and said, "It's because Yelu Dilie is your younger brother?"

He had a reason for targeting Yelufu Sage.

Yelufu Sage was in charge of guarding Mobei, and there was a conflict between the Uguri tribe and the Liuxi tribe due to water and grass issues.

Yelufu Sage, as the arbitrator, awarded the water plants to the Liuxi tribe regardless of the reasons, which made Xi Zhuo lose face. Not to mention, in that winter, many clansmen died.

Yelufu Sage's eccentric behavior is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Yelufu Sage didn't hide anything, and said tit for tat: "That's right, it's because Yelu Dilie is my younger brother!"

The Liuxi tribe surrendered to Khitan early, and among the elite Khitan army, the Xi clan soldiers accounted for the majority, and they made great contributions to Khitan.

Yelufu Sage was naturally biased.

It's the same this time.

Yelufu Sage emphasized again: "He is my younger brother. I can understand that he has something to hide. I will not plunder his people, and he will not attack our troops. I can assure you of this. "

Wu's beggar said at this time: "Okay, let's go like this!"

Wu's beggar had originally unified the largest Kret tribe in Mongolia, and now he has called on other tribes in Mongolia, and he is already the strongest existence.

He stood on Yelufu Sage's side, Xi Zhuo couldn't say anything, but said: "Just don't regret it."

On the grassland, strength is the most important thing. Yelufu Sage and Wu's beggar agreed, and no one else dared to say more.

After the meeting, Wu's beggar said with some dissatisfaction: "An Da, it's more than a woman."

Yelufu Sage said seriously, "I believe in my brother."

As soon as he finished speaking, he vaguely seemed to hear the sound of turmoil.
