Chapter 508 Other Plans
On the surface, it was true that Yelu Dashi had come to join Yelu Yanxi, but in fact he had a vague desire to stand on his own at this time. It was really the two emperors Yelu Yanxi and Yelu Chun who completely disappointed him.

As a person who is determined to restore the country, Yelu Dashi has never been so eager to control his own power as he is now.And Yelu Yanxi is his hope, which is why he is willing to take risks to see Yelu Yanxi.

Closer to home, when Yelu Yanxi first heard the report from his subordinates that Yelu Dashi came to ask for an interview, he thought he had something wrong with his ears, but he did not confirm the authenticity of the matter until he saw him in person, and immediately spoke without waiting for Yelu Dashi to salute scolded,
"Lin Ya Dashi, are you guilty?"

Yelu Dashi bowed and saluted unhurriedly, and then said, "What is the crime of this humble minister, please tell your Majesty clearly?"

Xiao Fengxian, who came to the side after hearing the news, couldn't help but said, "Hmph, at this moment, you still dare to quibble, you have committed three major crimes successively.

First, support the former King Jin to seize the throne.Second, support the traitor Yeluchuna to stand on his own feet.Third, descend to the Song Dynasty with Yeluchun and others. "

"Your Majesty also thinks so?" Yelu Dashi looked at Xiao Fengxian disdainfully, and asked Yelu Yanxi.

Yelu Yanxi took a drink from his glass and said, "That's right, I just wanted to hear how you would explain it."

"Lord Xiao made these three accusations against me, I have my own words. First, His Majesty had not established a crown prince at that time, King Jin was His Majesty's own son, and it was only natural for me to serve him.

Regarding the second and third points, it’s no wonder that I’m a minister. His Majesty went hunting that day, and Nanjing’s people were panic-stricken. I supported King Yan. Apart from following the trend, I also hoped that he could preserve our Daliao society as Yelu What is wrong with the descendants of A Baoji? "

Although Yelu Yanxi was stupid, he knew some things well, so after hearing Yelu Dashi's words, he felt a rare embarrassment in his heart, and deliberately skipped this topic.

"Forget it, I won't pursue too much in the past, so why are you here today?"

Yelu Dashi breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he had finally passed this test, and then he wanted to talk about the business, "The reason why I took the risk to come here is to report to His Majesty, and this matter is related to His Majesty. safety."

"Tell me carefully!"

"Your Majesty probably doesn't know yet, but Wanyan Aguda has already sent envoys to contact the Song Kingdom. I think the two countries will join forces to attack Your Majesty soon after."

"What, Song Guo is so deceptive!" Hearing this news, Yelu Yanxi panicked immediately.

In fact, many ministers in the Liao Kingdom had advised Yelu Yanxi not to run away, but at that time he retorted plausibly, saying that the territory of Daliao was vast, with the sea in the east, quicksand in the west, Luqu River in the north, and Baigou in the south. , with a territory of thousands of miles, he can continue hunting as long as he runs to a place where the Jurchens can't find it.

But the actual situation was beyond Yelu Yanxi's expectations. First, the Xijing Road was lost, then Liaodong was completely lost, and finally Nanjing Road was also owned by the Song Dynasty.

It can be said that until now, the seemingly vast territory of the Liao Kingdom, only the grassland is still under its control in name, but Yelu Yanxi's family knows their own affairs, once these tribes on the grassland fall to the Jin Kingdom, then they will The end of the world is not far away.

Thinking of this, the emperor, who had been pursuing hunting all his life, finally understood the seriousness of the matter. He hurriedly asked Xiao Fengxian, "Does the prime minister have any countermeasures?"

Xiao Fengxian's yin and yang can be contrary, but it is absolutely impossible to come up with an idea. After thinking for a long time, Ai Ai said, "If it is really desperate, your majesty might as well go to Xixia for refuge. You must know that the emperor Li Qianshun is your majesty's nephew. I'm going to die."

Yelu Yanxi smacked his lips, feeling that the idea was worth it, and was about to express his agreement when he heard Yelu Dashi say, "Your Majesty must not do this, this is a dead end!"

Xiao Fengxian was immediately annoyed, and shouted sharply, "What's Lin Ya's intention? What's wrong with your Majesty going to Xixia? It can not only avoid the limelight, preserve a useful body, but also wait for the future when the world changes greatly. The best of both worlds?"

Yelu Dashi didn't even look at Xiao Fengxian, but only stared at Yelu Yanxi and said, "Your Majesty, who has been placed under the fence throughout the ages, which one will end well? It's good that the Lord of Xixia is His Majesty's nephew, but who can guarantee that he will face the pressure of Song and Jin? Won't you hand over His Majesty for benefits?"

Having said that, he looked at Xiao Fengxian and asked him forcefully, "Master Xiao, what is your intention? Although His Majesty's current situation is not good, as long as there are soldiers and horses by his side, whether it is fighting or fleeing, he can still decide on his own.

But once you go to another country, the safety of His Majesty will be in the hands of others. At that time, you will not be able to help yourself, and you will not let others handle it at will! "

"This..." Facing the aggressive Yelu Dashi, Xiao Fengxian became tongue-tied all of a sudden.

And Yelu Yanxi was reminded by these words, and also realized that something was wrong. Li Qianshun's identity was first the lord of a country, and then his nephew.

Moreover, they didn't have much affection for their uncle and nephew, especially a few years ago when the Song Dynasty was in a hurry to attack Xixia, Li Qianshun sent envoys to the Liao Kingdom repeatedly to ask for help, but Yelu Yanxi only cared about hunting and ignored them at all.

Now that the situation is upside down and Feng Shui has taken turns, it is impossible to say that Li Qianshun will really, as Yelu Dashi said, use him as the emperor of the Liao Kingdom as a gift to make good friends with Song and Jin.

"Hey, the one thing I regret the most is that I didn't kill that barbarian Wanyan Aguda at the head fish banquet that day, and that's why I'm reduced to this state today."

"Your Majesty, don't be discouraged. We are not in a desperate situation yet. As long as we plan properly, our Daliao has no chance of recovery."

"What's Lin Ya's great opinion, tell me quickly!" Yelu Yanxi cheered up and asked impatiently.

Seeing that the time is ripe, Yelu Dashi immediately threw out his long-planned countermeasure, "Your Majesty, the Eastern Jurchens are becoming more and more powerful, the Song people in the south are treacherous, and the north is a barren land, so the only way out for me in Daliao It is to the west."

"Xiangxi, you mean the land of Hetao?"

"No, although the land of Hetao is good, it is the focus of Song and Xia competition. If I go there, I will only become a place of criticism. What I mean by going west means crossing the Jinshan Mountain and directly taking the land of the Western Regions."

When Yelu Yanxi heard about the Western Regions, he immediately shook his head like a rattle. Xiao Fengxian even laughed and said, "I thought Lin Ya had a good idea, and I didn't want to come up with such a bad idea. The Western Regions are thousands of miles away. There are grasslands and deserts along the way, according to my opinion, we are afraid that if we go halfway, we will be buried in the wilderness."

Yelu Dashi saw that Yelu Yanxi couldn't stop nodding, and quickly persuaded again, "Your Majesty, it is true that going to the Western Regions is far away, but as long as the plan is proper, it is not impossible to make this happen. The most important thing is that the Western Regions have always been prosperous. If Daliao can gain a foothold there, it can slowly accumulate strength, and when there are changes in the east, it can send troops to retake the ancestral land."

Yelu Yanxi is a hedonist. When he thought of going to the long yellow sands in the west, he refused without thinking, "This strategy is too outrageous, so don't bring it up again in the future. It's better to think about how to deal with the current crisis For good."

Long before he came to see Yelu Yanxi, Yelu Dashi guessed that he would not adopt his method in all likelihood. Fortunately, he had a backup plan, which was to gain the trust of Yelu Yanxi first, slowly win over some confidants, and master The right amount of soldiers and horses, when he finds an opportunity, he will lead the troops all the way west.

Therefore, after being rejected by Yelu Yanxi, he didn't take it seriously at all, and instead actively offered advice, "Your Majesty, for the current plan, the enemy is too powerful. We'd better avoid the edge for a while, and retreat to the desert if it doesn't work." North, after they retreat, let's go back to Monan."

Yelu Yanxi smiled and said, "That's a good idea. The Jurchen barbarians are only used to the white mountains and black waters of Liaodong. When they get to the grasslands, they will still be caught blind."

"Your Majesty is right, but we are not without flaws."

"Come and listen."

"As the saying goes, if you are not of my race, your heart must be different. Many of His Majesty's army are recruited from the Naiman and Mughal tribes. These guys have always had milk and mothers. It is easy We have to guard against being bought by the Kingdom of Jin."

Yelu Yanxi thought about it, and hurriedly asked, "Then according to Lin Ya's opinion, what should I do?"

A gleam of light flashed in Yelu Dashi's eyes, and he replied respectfully, "What I mean is that it is best to break up those tribes, and then divide the army into several divisions, all of which will be led by His Majesty's confidantes."

"Well, your idea is not bad, but I'm afraid those barbarian leaders will raise objections!"

"This matter is easy. Your Majesty can first order people to secretly control the general's need for food and grass, and then use the excuse of discussing the next move to invite all the leaders of the barbarians to discuss the matter. When the time comes..."

As he spoke, Yelu Dashi made a chopping gesture, the meaning of which was self-evident.

Yelu Yanxi was startled, and subconsciously asked Xiao Fengxian for his opinion, "I'm a little worried about what the prime minister thinks, if you do this, those tribal soldiers will rebel."

Xiao Fengxian is not completely useless, he understands better than anyone else where his rights come from, if Yelu Yanxi falls, he will definitely have no good fruit to eat.

Therefore, after listening to Yelu Dashi's suggestion, he also believed that it was necessary to eliminate these hidden dangers, so he said, "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry at all. The grassland has always respected the weak and the strong, and it is common to change leaders. As long as your majesty can personally Come forward and give me a big reward to appease, I think it won't be a big problem."

Hearing that even Xiao Fengxian said so, Yelu Yanxi made up his mind immediately, and ordered Yelu Dashi to be the Marshal of the capital, and handed him [-] Liao troops to supervise the matter, and promised that he would assign some troops to him afterwards .

Yelu Dashi got what he wanted, so he worked very hard. It only took three days to complete this task, helping Yelu Yanxi to completely control more than [-] grassland soldiers.

And Yelu Yanxi did not break his promise this time. After dividing the army into three, he really gave Yelu Dashi another [-] people, and let him and his two sons jointly command the army and guard him.

Not long after this incident happened, Yelu Dashi was practicing soldiers and horses himself, when suddenly Yelu Yanxi's attendant came to report, saying that he was asked to go to the Chinese army tent as soon as possible, and Yelu Yanxi had important matters to discuss.

At first, Yelu Dashi thought it was Jin Guo's invasion, so he didn't dare to be negligent, so he hurriedly brought his bodyguards and rushed all the way to the big tent.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered, he saw two strangers in the tent, and Yelu Yanxi was very interested, listening to them introduce the two black thin-waisted hounds in front of him.

If it was the past, Yelu Dashi would immediately speak out when he saw Yelu Yanxi not doing his job properly, but now he has other plans in mind, so he just waited and watched, and only quietly came to the side of King Yeluding of Qin , and asked in a low voice, "Your Highness, what is the origin of these two people?"

Since King Yelu Aoluwo of Jin Dynasty is dead, Yeluding has no reason to be hostile to Yelu Dashi any more. Hearing this, he smiled and replied, "I want to teach Lin Ya to know that these two people are from Mu Xu, the envoy of the Dingxiang Festival of the Song Dynasty. Appointed, come to discuss business matters with the emperor."

Yelu Dashi had dealt with Mu Xu before, so he didn't believe this at all, he shook his head and said, "Then Mu Xu is treacherous and cunning, how could he send someone here for such a trivial matter, he must have another purpose!"

Ye Lvding was stunned, and didn't dare to answer, "Lin Ya said that Mu Xu wanted to form an alliance with us, but isn't he Song Chen, he should cooperate with the Jin people?"

Yelu Dashi explained, "Your Highness does not know that Mu Xu's name is Song Chen, but he is actually a prince of one party. He was originally a grassroots bandit in the Song Dynasty. Later, his power developed and expanded. He first occupied the River East of the Song Dynasty, and later invaded the I, Daliao Xijing Dao, can be said to be an out-and-out hero, how could such a person easily submit to the Song Emperor?"

"Since this thief once invaded the territory of our Great Liao Dynasty, then I want to speak to my father, let him kill these two envoys, and give Mu Xu a serious look!"

Hearing Yeluding's stupid words, Yelu Dashi shook his head in his heart. He missed Jin Wang Aoluwo more and more, and at the same time, he became more determined in his mind, but he had to tell Yeluding about the stakes .

"Your Highness, wait a minute, we are now facing enemies, we can no longer offend that guy Mu Xu, but instead we want to win him over."

After being persuaded by Yelu Dashihao, Yeluding just gave up and turned his attention to the center of the big tent again to see what Yelu Yanxi's decision would be.

How can Yelu Yanxi make any decisions at this moment, in order to escape, he abandoned many of his beloved things, including the sea dongqing and hounds that have been carefully fed for many years, which made him full of regrets, since he arrived in Jiashan. Love to go hunting.

He was overjoyed when he saw two majestic hounds this time. He watched them around for a long time, and exclaimed from time to time, "Wonderful, there is no trace of variegation all over the body, the shoulder blades are tilted back, the waist is compact and powerful, and the face is long. With a long mouth and a hooked nose, he is really a good dog that is hard to find in the world."

After Yelu Yanxi boasted, he felt that it wasn't enough, and then he did something unexpected, but he told the left and right, "Quickly find some lambs, I want to test the quality of these two hounds."

After finishing speaking, he took the dog leash directly, ignoring everyone's expressions, and just stabbed out of the tent with such a big thorn.
