The rise of the prince

Chapter 404

Zhongjing City is a large city with bricks and stones on the outside and rammed earth on the inside. The outer city wall is three feet high, the city wall is deep, and there is a moat more than two feet wide outside the city.The head of the city was about Zhang Zhang wide, enough for three or five people to go side by side, and cattle and horses to and fro, but at this time the big golden flag had already been hung, and soldiers from the Kingdom of Jin were standing there.

Before entering the city, most of the Jin soldiers wore leather armor sewn from the fur of animals in the northern snowfields, which was warm and protective, but it was far inferior to the armor of the Liao State, let alone the iron armor of the Jing State, and the cold forging armor of Xixia.

The Liaobai River was seized in the first battle, plus the treasury of the capital, many Jurchen warriors are now wearing real armor.

"Is Yelu Shulie a fool? If he sticks to the city and refuses to fight, what can I do with him?" Wanyan Wugu is wearing a dazzling cold-forged armor that reflects the sun, and every piece of armor is polished to perfection. Like a lens, this armor was purchased from a merchant in the Western Regions and is worth tens of thousands of gold.

He clenched his hands into fists and knocked on the hard bricks of the wall. Feeling the thickness and firmness of the city wall, he praised: "What a fortified city, it is definitely not comparable to the city on Tokyo Road."

"Brother, Yelu Shulie has 10,000+ elites. He has gathered so many tribal generals. He has a big heart. He just wants to kill us all in Liaobaixi. How can he defend the city, hahaha." His younger brother Wanyan Zongbi laughed.

"That's right, he was on the verge of death, he had no choice but to attack, and he wanted to wipe us out in a single battle. Hmph, it's ridiculous, the Khitan people are nothing more than a mob!" Wanyan Wugunai said disdainfully, and turned to look at the crowds of people coming and going in the city. bustling scene.

After he invaded Zhongjing, he did not kill the common people, did not rob good families, reduced taxes and corvees, cleared prisons, and opened treasuries to reward warriors. The people were grateful to him, and they soon gained a firm foothold.

"I see not only the Khitan people, but also the Xixia people, and the Han people. They are just cowards in front of the heroes of our Jin Kingdom." Wanyan Zongbi said proudly: "Brother can call back his niece, even if the Jing Kingdom and the Liao Kingdom form an alliance. So what? Who are the heroes of the Kingdom of Jin afraid of? The worst is to kill them all together. Wouldn’t it be better to swallow the Liao Kingdom in the north and then destroy the Jing Kingdom in the south? Besides, the land in the south is more fertile and rich in products. Someone said it."

Wanyan Wugunai laughed after hearing this: "Hahaha, you are right, but you have to see clearly whether Jingguo people are sheep or wolves."

"What's there to be afraid of, our big golden man is a fierce tiger!" Wanyan Yingge patted her chest.

"Hahahaha, you have to remember that no matter how powerful a tiger is, it will be afraid of wolves." Wanyan Wugunai said seriously, and then looked at the distant sky: "I told Liu Xu before he went to Jingguo, we You can give up the Nanjing Road, and Jing Guo himself will send people to attack, but Jing Guo must form an alliance with our country and not use swords."

"Nanjing road must be given up!" Wanyan Zongbi was even more unhappy.

Wanyan Wugunai seemed to have other ideas, clasped his hands to support the city wall, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, his eyes were bright, and said strategically: "When they arrive in Nanjing, it will be clear whether the people of Jingguo are wolves or sheep. !"

"If they are wolves, then we will maintain the covenant and continue to fight against each other, if not" he suddenly became excited when he said this, his thumb raised, his cheeks wrinkled, his eyelids shrank, and he narrowed his eyes and said: " That’s a sheep that’s fatter than Liao’s! A sheep is a sheep after all, and it’s always going to be eaten!”

After hearing what he said, the second brother also became excited and geared up.

"But don't worry, now the priority is to win the Shangjing Road, the Liao people will think that I dare not send troops in winter, the weather is cold, the soldiers and horses are prone to fatigue, and this is a season of taboo for military strategists.

But we are tired, and so are they! "Wanyan Wugunai said seriously: "I, a Jurchen warrior, was born in a place of bitter cold. I am not even afraid of the cold weather in Liaodong, but I am afraid of the little coolness of Shangjing!" "

"Hmph, the people of Liao thought we didn't dare to send troops, and the people of Jing thought we didn't dare to send troops, but I decided to send troops. They didn't dare, but that doesn't mean I didn't dare! They were afraid, but I wasn't afraid!" He said proudly: "Years ago , I will step out of Shangjing and hang Yelu Shulie's head on the horse's back!"

"Brother, no matter what you do or what you want to do, I will follow you!" Wanyan Zongbi was so excited that the two brothers looked at each other, and then burst out laughing.

"I'm going to go down and ask my brothers to prepare. Prepare more warm clothes and save more dried meat."

"Go!" Wan Yan Wu Gu Nai patted his younger brother on the back, and his younger brother hurriedly led two soldiers down the city wall.

After a while, the soldiers hurried up to the top of the city, ran over and whispered: "Your Majesty, the envoys sent by the Xixia Kingdom have already left the city, should they be allowed to enter the city?"

"Messengers from Xixia?" Wanyan Wugu frowned, "What are they doing here?"

"According to the leader, they are here to pay respects to the emperor, and they have brought several carts of gold and silver treasures with them!" The soldiers said happily, Xi Xia wanted to soften to Da Jinfu!
"Oh." Wanyan Wugu was very interested and didn't speak. He paced around the city, seemingly thinking of something. After a long time, he resolutely said: "No, let them go back."

"Ah." The soldiers were stunned: "Your Majesty, there are several carts of gold and silver. I can see clearly that the wheels are sunk in the mud for several inches."

Wan Yan Wu Gu Nai laughed, "What do you know, when I took Nanjing, the Xixia Emperor hurried over to give presents, he was just waiting to please, this kind of cowardly bastard, when I took Shangjing, wouldn't he want to kneel down?" Beg for mercy, be my Daikin affiliate!
If he asks for it again at that time, he can send me all the Xixia treasury. Now these few cars are nothing. "

He said it was categorical, and the guards looked admiring after hearing it, "The subordinates know, let them go back now!"

"Have a bad attitude, scare those soft bones more, make them afraid." Wanyan Wugunai instructed again.

"Yes! This subordinate will do it now." The personal guard turned around and said, happily leaving the city.

Autumn rains are continuous, entering September, and the weather is gradually cooling down. This is the so-called happy and sad.

The Ming Lord of the Jin Kingdom, Wanyan Wugu, was a battle outside the city of Zhongjing. His power shook the world. He once ruled the world and swallowed Liuhe with arrogance. It reached the sea in the east, Jinshan in the west, Yinma in the north, and Baigou in the south. Flat out.

The First World War established Wanyan Wugunai's prestigious reputation, and all the countries in the world trembled, especially the Xixia and Mongolian tribes in the north who were close to the Kingdom of Jin.

Among them, the Liao Kingdom, as the victim, was naturally sad and trembling.

In less than a year, the Jurchens marched from Dongdong, from Liaoyang to Zhongjing, and their soldiers pointed directly at Shangjing. As long as the two sides fought, Liao would be defeated. Such an unstoppable power, who can not be afraid.

The people in Shangjing did not dare to make peace with each other, and they were panic-stricken. They were afraid that the Jurchens would soon come to Shangjing, and the defenders took turns day and night, and they did not dare to relax at all.

Accompanied by the maid, Yelu Yali came to the main hall. The lobby of the main hall was brightly lit, and the sound of dancing and music was endless.

As soon as she stepped up the steps, two imperial guards with green beast masks stopped him: "Princess, the Khan has an order that no one is allowed to enter."

Yeluya said angrily: "I am Princess Wei, I order you to get out of the way!"

The two animal-faced imperial guards remained unmoved, "I'm sorry princess, we only obey the Khan's order."

Yali had no choice but to kick the two imperial guards bitterly, but his feet hurt because these imperial guards were covered in iron armor.

She was so wronged and wept, the maid hurriedly stepped forward to support her.

Since the defeat of Zhongjing, the father locked himself in the main hall all day long, indulged in drinking and having fun, did not think about state affairs, and ignored the government affairs. Many ministers and generals asked to see him, but they did not see him.

Outside the palace, people in the capital were panicked, and the people were terrified. If it wasn't for Yelu Dashi, the king of the South Court, who presided over major events, maintained order, and killed some people who spread rumors that the Liao Kingdom would be defeated, and stopped the people from fleeing. I'm afraid there will be chaos in Beijing at the time!
Father didn't pay attention to these things at all, but was drunk in the hall every night, shouting "I'm not as good as him, I'm not as good as him"

Yelu Yali was both scared and distressed.
