Han Hai Tang Ergui

Chapter 628 Western Suburbs of Luzhou, Silver Saddle Khitan Straight
In the second year of Shaoming, AD 947, on July 8000th, Zhang Ting personally led the right feather guard, the left dragon guard, the left and right Jinwu guard, the right Qianniu guard, the right leopard Tao guard and other six guards, [-] people .

Including Li Shengtian's 1000 people of Khotan warriors and 1000 cavalry in Regret Mountain, a total of 1000 people, and [-] auxiliary soldiers and civilian husbands, a total of [-] people.

First go north and leave Xinkou to Yunzhou (Datong) to appease the local people.

Then head east, take the Weizhou (Yu County, Hebei) Feihu Ancient Road to enter Yizhou, and then turn northeast to Youzhou.

On the way, Zhang Tie personally directed a battle.

Wang Hui, the governor of Daizhou in the northeast of Taiyuan, had colluded with the Khitan people long before Shi Jingtang ceded Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures.

After the Jin-Liao war, he took refuge in the Khitan people in advance and let go of the natural danger of Yanmen Pass, which caused the Khitan people to drive straight in several times, and almost broke into the city of Taiyuan, which can be described as a heinous crime.

When the Khitan was defeated, Wang Hui was terrified and bribed Liu Zhiyuan in Daizhou.

Liu Zhiyuan ordered Wang Hui to be pardoned in order to reserve resources against Zhang Tie, and secretly ordered him to send troops to search Yunzhou and Weizhou, which were occupied by the Khitans.

After Yan Jin arrived, Wang Hui sent someone to join him, but how could Yan Jin accept such a person's surrender.

According to the law of Zhang Zhou, ten times of Wang Hui's death is not too much, and it is a daydream to continue to be the governor of Daizhou after surrendering.

So Wang Hui, who had no way out, began to recruit troops and food in Daizhou like crazy, built Daizhou City, and entangled more than a thousand soldiers to prepare to resist.

Zhang Tie was merciless this time, and ordered the army to surround Daizhou, raised Lu Gong's cart, piled up a mountain of earth, condescended to shoot down at the head of Daizhou city, and blasted the city gates everywhere in Fenjindu, rushing and crashing cars into battle.

On the third day, the soldiers and horses in Daizhou City couldn't hold on anymore. The people in the city turned on Wang Hui's soldiers and opened the west gate to surrender.

For the first time, Zhang Ting showed the courage of the emperor to lay down millions of corpses in a fit of anger.

At one time, he deposed Wang Hui's soldiers and generals, the local bandits and bandits who colluded with them, and the families who served as the leading party for the Khitan people. The women were reduced to slavery, and all the men were killed.

Just outside the city of Daizhou, 500 people were executed.

This incident not only greatly deterred people with unruly intentions everywhere, but also made Taiyuan people realize that it is not that Emperor Shao couldn't kill people, but he treated Taiyuan people especially favorably, and people's hearts were even more convinced.

. . . .

And just when Zhang Tie personally supervised the army to capture Daizhou, Murong Nobunaga was also working on solving the scene that Zhang Tie least wanted to face for Zhang Tie.

That's Zhao Yanshou's problem.

In fact, Youzhou didn't need to attack at all. Murong Nobunaga intercepted Gao Song's troops that day, and directly beat the last Liao cavalry to death.

Although Gao Song finally led more than a hundred riders and escaped in the vast night, the fate of Youzhou was already doomed.

Since the six prefectures of You, Tan, Ji, Mo, Ying, and Gui were betrayed by Shi Jingtang to the Khitans, the quality of life in the local area dropped sharply.

No matter how the Zhao family of Lu Longjun is a warlord, they still regard the six states as their own property. Looting is certain, but it is within the tolerance of the common people.

But the Khitan people are different, they entered the fancy world of Youzhou, if they don't fill their bellies, they will definitely not restrain themselves.

Coupled with the war between Jin and Liao and the subsequent squeeze by Yelu Ruan, Lu Longjun's six states were like hell.

This is actually the reason why Zhao Yanshou was able to gain a firm foothold in Youzhou after he suffered several setbacks in the Central Plains and wiped out Lu Longjun's old background, and his son Zhao Kuangzan abandoned him and returned to the south.

Because the people of Lu Longjun's six prefectures found that compared with the Khitan people, the Zhao family was undoubtedly much gentler, and they missed the Zhao family's time even more.

Therefore, people's hearts are towards Zhao's family, and even Yelu Deguang wants to stabilize the six states, but also in the name of Zhao Yanshou.

But for Zhang Zhou, Zhao Yanshou is completely a burden.

From the perspective of national feelings, Zhao Dejun, Zhao Yanshou and his son are shameless, it is not because Zhao Dejun and Shi Jingtang compete, Shi Jingtang will not be cruel enough to sell Youzhou to Khitan.

Because at that time the Lulong Army Six States including Youzhou were Zhao Dejun's territory, Shi Jingtang sold it without any burden, and could also eliminate a strong competitor.

Zhao Dejun himself is not a good person, in terms of shamelessness, he is only slightly inferior to Shi Jingtang.

More importantly, in the third Jin-Liao war, which was the time when Yelu Deguang was able to take control of the Central Plains, Zhao Yanshou went south as a vanguard.

The 2000 people led by Wang Qing by the Hutuo River were attacked by Zhao Yanshou, and Zhao Yanshou even killed Wang Qing.

On Zhang Zhou's side, Wang Qing was a great hero who fought against Khitan and died unyielding. He had already been conferred on the high position of Wu'an County King, so no matter from which point of view, Zhao Yanshou must be killed.

Unfortunately, Zhao Yanshou had a good son, Zhao Kuangzan, who not only got on Zhang Ting's line early, but also married Zhang Ting's adopted eldest daughter, Princess Baoding, who is now Zhang Zhou's son-in-law.

In other words, Zhang Ting and Zhao Yanshou are actually relatives of their sons and daughters.

Murong Xinchang knew better that Zhang Yu was very taboo about killing relatives, not to mention that Zhao Kuangzan was very favored by Zhang Yu, and he was even more unwilling to hurt Zhao Kuangzan's heart.

However, it is impossible for Zhao Yanshou not to die, there is no reason for him to continue living!
Therefore, Murong Nobunaga, who knows the heart of foster father, is the best person to solve this problem.

Because he has another identity, that is Zhao Yanshou's brother-in-law and Zhao Kuangzan's uncle, he will send Zhao Yanshou a ride, so Zhao Kuangzan will not have other bad associations.

And as early as May, when Zhang Ting went south to pursue Liu Zhiyuan, Murong Nobunaga had already entered Youzhou City.

Because since the Khitan's [-]-strong army collapsed, the people in You, Ji and other six prefectures who were oppressed by the Khitan immediately rose up to resist.

Khitan general Gao Song originally planned to take people into Youzhou to rob him, and then take Yeluruan's son to Linhuang Mansion in Shangjing to make a living.

As a result, after the Han people in Liuzhou went berserk, they defeated him with more than a thousand cavalry who had retreated to the border of Youzhou.

Gao Song was terrified and had no choice but to run with more than a hundred riders. Not to mention Youzhou City, he didn't even dare to go to Lu County (near Tong County), so he ran all the way into the grassland and disappeared.

So Murong Xinchang immediately cooperated with Gao Xingzhou, and Murong Xinchang led an army straight into Youzhou City to control the four prefectures of You, Yi, Ying, and Mo.

Gao Xingzhou went northwest to Changping, left Juyongguan, and went to Anding Guizhou.

Gao Huaide led the [-] Yulin Wei Jingqi and the [-] Regret Shandu Jingqi assigned to him by Murong Xinchang, and went northeast to Taogu Mountain and went straight to Tanzhou to block Gubeikou.

Zhang Xibao led [-] Yulin Weijing to ride out of Sanhe County to control Jizhou, rebuild the Yanshan fortress Yancheng Shouzhu City, and guard against the Khitans in western Liaoning.

This set of combos showed Murong Nobunaga's long-term strategic vision.

He entered Youzhou and directly controlled Zhao Yanshou to stabilize the most important Youzhou.

The Gao family's father and son ancestors have been entrenched in the north and south of Yanshan Mountain for a long time. Up to now, the heroes in the north of the mountain still recognize the signboard of the Gao family, and immediately stabilized the situation in Youzhou.

Afterwards, Murong Nobunaga, in his capacity as Chief Governor of Chijie Pingyan, ordered volunteer soldiers from all states to garrison the prefectures on the spot. The governors of all states immediately stabilized the place, and then asked them to submit a list of volunteers. Once the saint arrived, he would be rewarded for his merits.

With Wen's hand and Wu's hand, Lu Longjun's six states immediately settled down.

After finishing these, Murong Nobunaga ordered people to let go of the blockade of Zhao Yanshou's mansion, and after disarming all the weapons, he went to the city to meet his brother-in-law, Khitan Wei Wang Zhao Yanshou.

But Nobunaga Murong, who saw Zhao Yanshou again, was immediately taken aback by Zhao Yanshou's appearance.

When he let Zhao Yanshou go in Henan, Zhao Yanshou was still a handsome old man full of energy.

But when I saw him today, Zhao Yanshou was already very old, his head was covered with white hair, and the wrinkles around his eyes almost had eighteen folds.

You must know that Zhao Yanshou has been beautiful and handsome since he was a child, otherwise Zhao Dejun would not have regarded him as his own son. Tang Mingzong Li Siyuan married his daughter to him after only seeing him once.

Zhao Yanshou has always been proud of his appearance, but now, Zhao Yanshou, who pays great attention to appearance, has completely ignored these things, and his tall body in the past seems to be much shorter.

"Brother's life is not satisfactory!" Murong Xinchang couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

He is like this, maybe the Wenqing gene passed down by Mrs. Cao San always has a soft heart towards those close to him.

Zhao Yanshou glanced at Nobunaga Murong, didn't say anything, just nodded lightly, "Is Shisi Lang here to kill you as a brother?"

Murong Nobunaga just wanted to shake his head to deny it, but he stopped shortly. Zhao Yanshou must die, and everyone, including his son Zhao Kuangzan, will feel better if he dies.

In the embarrassing silence, Murong Xinchang suddenly changed the subject, and he took out a fragrant purse.

"This is brother Cun's fetal hair when he was [-] days old. Baoding kept some of it and asked me to bring it to make a pen for brother."

Brother Cun is the son of Zhao Kuangzan and Zhang Qiwan, the adopted eldest daughter of Baoding Princess Zhang Qiwan. Zhang Qi’s grandson has just turned [-] days. Got a purse.

Zhao Yanshou glanced at the purse, did not reach out to pick it up, but suddenly his eyes turned red and his breathing became heavy. He said to Murong Nobunaga: "The weather is getting colder, Shishi, would you like to have a drink with me?"

Murong Nobunaga nodded, and waved the guards around him to go down to prepare. Now Zhao Yanshou's mansion is completely controlled by Murong Nobunaga. If he doesn't speak, Zhao Yanshou can't do anything.

Soon, warm wine and a few dishes of side dishes were brought up. Zhao Yanshou ate a few mouthfuls, and his body stopped shaking, as if he had regained his original appearance of a titan.

He didn't care about the heat, he drank a large bowl of hot wine suddenly, and the crystal liquid dripped down Zhao Yanshou's beard.

Suddenly, Zhao Yanshou put the bowl heavily on the table, and said in a hateful voice: "In the past, I always told my lord that the opponent of my Zhao family was not Ah San from Luoyang, but Shi Jingtang from Hedong, but he just didn't believe it!

Then Li Asan's throne was obtained by crying. He was old and injured all over. Not many people obeyed him, and many of his sons were incompetent.

On the other hand, my father and son of the Zhao family are in good health, and they have mastered the northern elite cavalry. When Li Ah San dies, the northern elite will take advantage of the momentum and go south, how can it be uncertain?

Only that Shi Jingtang, who seems to be obedient, but actually sees wolves, is shameless and cruel, and occupies the land of Longxing in the east of the river, is a great enemy, and it really came true! "

Li Asan refers to Li Congke, the last emperor of the later Tang Dynasty. In the past, Li Congke was unparalleled in his prime. During the battle between Tang and Liang, he once ventured to retreat to the Liang army camp with a dozen cavalry in the middle of the Liang army. Prepared, it was difficult to kill more than ten Liang Jun cavalry in a violent attack, cut off the banner in front of Liang Jun's camp and ran back to the main formation.

When Zhuang Zong Li Cunxu saw it, he shouted: "Excellent, San!"

Li Congke is Zhao Yanshou's eldest brother-in-law, so he is also called Li Asan.

And the past events that Zhao Yanshou mentioned were the past events that Li Congke ordered the army to besiege Jinyang and attack Shi Jingtang in the past.

Back then, Zhao Yanshou's father, King of Peking, Zhao Dejun, was also ordered to attack Shi Jingtang. Zhao Yanshou urged that Shi Jingtang should be killed as soon as possible, and then make plans after gaining control of the hearts of the people in the north.

Because at that time Shi Jingtang wanted to borrow troops from the Khitan, it was already on the surface, and Zhao Yanshou was in Youji, and he knew that the strength of the Khitan people was not what it used to be.

As long as Shi Jingtang borrows troops, he will probably use Zhao and his son, who have always been regarded as thorns in his eyes, as bargaining chips.

But Zhao Dejun didn't listen, and he still regarded Khitan as the Khitan who was beaten by the Central Plains during Li Cunxu's time.

He didn't take it seriously, but even the lion asked Li Congke to rule the whole of Hebei, and wanted to annex Fan Yanguang's team who also went to suppress the rebellion.

Of course, the result was a fight and two breakups. Later, Tang Jun didn't fight Shi Jingtang, and almost started fighting himself. This also gave Shi Jingtang an opportunity. He immediately chose to sell Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures in exchange for the Khitan people to go south.

But after the Khitan army defeated Zhang Jingda, the coach of the later Tang Dynasty, they really surrounded the father and son of Zhao's family without stopping.

The soldiers under his command were also disappointed with Zhao Dejun and left one after another. The Zhao family father and son became Khitan captives, and Zhao Dejun was even killed on the grassland by the Khitan people.

Murong Xinchang sighed in his heart, if Zhao Dejun could listen to Zhao Yanshou back then, it is really unknown what the world would be like, at least the Khitan people would not be able to take away the six states of Lu Longjun.

After talking about the past in his heart, Zhao Yanshou became sluggish again.

And when he finished venting, Murong Xinchang's heart hardened, he raised his wine bowl and asked Zhao Yanshou for a drink.

"The regret of my brother is nothing more than the failure of the plan in the past, but have you thought about it? If my brother and his son can be loyal ministers of the country, instead of wanting to make things difficult, how can today's things happen?
When the elder brother and his son were there, there were one million households in Hebei, with a population of five million, and now it is less than half of them. How innocent are they?Parents died in the wild, wife and daughter were taken away by northern captives, it is all the fault of elder brother and father! "

Zhao Yanshou didn't expect Murong Xinchang to say such a thing, because in Zhao Yanshou's view, the people are like weeds in the field, they will grow back after being cut, the master is going to do a big business, who cares about their life and death?

After being stunned for a while, Zhao Yanshou said slowly: "Shishi Lang and us seem to be different."

"Mencius said: In the world, the people are the most important, the country is second, and the monarch is the least.

Xunzi said: The king is like a boat.Common people, water also.Water carries the boat, and water capsizes the boat.

The elder brother and his son will never know this truth, so they harm others and themselves.Today's saints take this as their motto and engrave it in the Chongwen Hall, so they should be the heroes who save the world. "

When Murong Nobunaga said this, his eyes shot out his deep disdain for people like Zhao Dejun, Zhao Yanshou and his son, and what rose in his heart was infinite admiration for his adoptive father Shaoming Zhang Shengren.

Seeing Murong Nobunaga like this, Zhao Yanshou knew that there was no way out, but he still didn't give up, he muttered for a while, and finally raised his head to look at Murong Nobunaga.

"Shishiro, is there really no chance?"

Nobunaga Murong shook his head slowly, and replied decisively: "No more!"

Suddenly he couldn't bear to say, "Unless brother is willing to go to Yelu Lihu."

"Hahahaha! Yelu Lihu! Hahahaha!" Zhao Yanshou stood up suddenly, and laughed like a madman, tears streaming down his face.

"Forget it then! Just here, you can always bury your bones in your hometown. In Luzhou in the past, when Yinan Khitan died, my father and son should have died together!"

Amidst the wild laughter, a strong man with beard, beard and leopard head and eyes flashed in Zhao Yanshou's mind. The deafening voice rang so loudly in Zhao Yanshou's ears.

"Zhao Yanshou, today I will die, and the next day your father and son will also die!"

20 years ago, Zhao Yanshou and his son collected Khitan heroes in Lulong to form the Silver Saddle Khitan Zhi.

There are 3000 people in the army, equipped with silver saddles, holding silver guns, invincible with bows and horses, and invincible.

After Tuanbaigu was defeated, Zhao Dejun and his son went south to Luzhou, but were forced to surrender by Khitan. Yelu Deguang asked Zhao Dejun, "Where is the silver saddle Khitan you bought when you were in Youzhou?"

Zhao Dejun instructed them with his hands, and Yelu Deguang then ordered people to kill Yin'an Khitan to 3000 people in the western suburbs of Luzhou, and locked Zhao Dejun and Zhao Yanshou into the grassland for detention.

From that moment on, Zhao's father and son lost all their capital, and the reuse after that was just Yelu Deguang's use of Zhao Yanshou to stabilize Lulong Army's six prefectures.

Murong Nobunaga stood up silently, took a breath, and then turned around to go out.

Zhao Yanshou suddenly threw himself down on the edge of the table, opened the sachet given to him by Princess Baoding, took out a strand of baby's soft fetal hair, sniffed greedily the smell of milk on it, and with tears streaming down his face, finally He showed a kind expression.

"After all, my son knows the righteousness better than a certain one. Please report back to Shao Tianzi. A certain Zhao Yanshou knows that he doesn't want to be stained with the blood of his relatives, so a certain family has already killed Yeluruan's son and daughter in advance, so don't let him be embarrassed!
He wants to let my son Kuangzan, the prince of all generations! "

Amidst the mournful roar, Zhao Yanshou picked up the long dagger Murong Xinchang specially left for him on the table, howled wildly, and suddenly inserted it from the left side of the neck, blood splashed everywhere, and died on the spot.

　It was too late to watch the World Cup last night. I was really sleepy, and I couldn’t rest at work. I missed a thousand words today, and I will make up for it tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
