From the leader of Mingjiao to the heavens

Chapter 172 Ask the National Teacher to Summon the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals

At that time, Yelu Zong of Xingzong of Liao Dynasty really got the letter from Yelu Chongyuan, so he could stabilize the throne. At that time, he made Yelu Chongyuan the emperor's younger brother, and promised to pass on the throne to Yelu Chongyuan after his death. He gave it to his son Yelu Hongji.

After Yelu Hongji became emperor, in order to appease Yelu Hongji, he was named Emperor Taishu. "Emperor's younger brother" and "Emperor's uncle" have the same weight as "Emperor Prince", which means that he is still the prince of a country, and he will pass the throne to him after his death in the future.

Yelu Chongyuan was resentful, and his son Yelu Nielugu was even more resentful: Yelu Hongji was so much younger than Yelu Chongyuan, and when he died, Yelu Chongyuan would be gone long ago, besides he still had a son, I am sure that I will give it directly to my son and not to my uncle, so I don't have to think about it as my cousin.

The emperor's throne is right in front of you, you have to fight for it no matter what!
Yelu Nerugu has been planning for many years. Recently, he got news that a courtier reminded Yelu Hongji that he must pay attention to his disobedience. The matter is about to be revealed.

This Nerugu took advantage of Emperor Yelu Hongji's hunting trip to the north, and led his troops northward to occupy the Linhuang Mansion in Shangjing. He asked his father Yelu Chongyuan to be the emperor, and sent an edict to the world, saying that Yelu Hongji had stolen the throne. It was a traitor who ordered troops from various ministries to go to Jingqin King to suppress the rebellion. In just a few days, a total of [-] troops were mobilized and gathered around Linhuang Mansion.

Wei Xiao followed Nerugu to Shangjing, and Nerugu took him to inspect the various ministries, pointing at the troops and said triumphantly: "Master, what do you think of our Khitan athletes' military appearance?"

Wei Xiao has also commanded hundreds of thousands of large armies to fight. Looking at the grand occasion of waving the flag and the soldiers and horses connecting the sky, he said that it was nothing: "These people usually herd horses and sheep, have not been trained, and their single-handed combat power is not enough. It's not high, and it's messy when assembled. At most, a small group of hundreds of people can cooperate to hunt together, like a pack of wolves. Large-scale army coordination is a mess, and they only know how to rush to kill. Soldiers don't know how to cooperate with their comrades. No matter how many there are, it is just a mob. If you encounter famous generals and elite soldiers, relying on the right time, place and people and a little arrangement, the entire army will definitely be wiped out."

Nerugu wanted to show Wei Xiao his own strength, and he also wanted Wei Xiao to praise him, but Wei Xiao came to belittle him. Although he was dissatisfied in his heart, he could only laugh on his face: "Follow me!" Master's heavenly soldiers and generals are naturally incomparable."

The generals who surrounded them also laughed awkwardly to smooth things over: "The commander of the national division, the heavenly soldiers and the heavenly generals, naturally look down on us mortal soldiers."

One of the generals said: "When will the national division summon the heavenly soldiers and generals to descend to the realm to surrender the rebels, let us open our eyes, and also make my Khitan Erlang less casualties..."

Sitting on the chariot, Wei Xiao said lightly, without turning his head, "I hope you don't have the chance to see him."

This person seemed to have been directly smashed into the head by a sledgehammer. His body felt dizzy for a while, and he staggered for a few steps before regaining his footing. His companions were all surprised and didn't know what happened: "What's wrong with you?"

"Ah? No..." He stepped up his steps to keep up with the team, muttering in his heart, "Could this guy really know demon skills?"

Yelu Nerugu sent people to Yelu Hongji's army to spread a message, saying that all the family members of the generals were in the upper capital, and they were in their own hands. He asked them to go home quickly and not follow the traitor Yelu Hongji to continue plotting rebellion. All kinds of things are ignored.

This had some effect, but it was not obvious. Yelu Hongji also sent someone to send a message here, saying that Yelu Nerugu conspired against the rebellion, God will not help, let the generals see clearly what they are doing, and immediately turn against and kill the rebels .

The two sides fought each other's cognitive battles, and it turned out that Nerugu's side was more fluctuating. Nerugu hurriedly asked Wei Xiao to come forward and perform a "miracle" to stabilize people's hearts.

Wei Xiao performed a small show of "Smooth Steps to the Sky Ladder" in Shangjing City. Using the soft silk ropes that are invisible to the naked eye, he used Lingbo microsteps to step up the tallest building in Shangjing City step by step. The vigorous internal force splashed the petals, and he sent a large number of petals more than ten feet away, spinning and falling like jade.

Then he publicly announced in a happy voice that Yelu Chongyuan is the emperor appointed by heaven, Yelu Zong is really a stolen property, Yelu Chongyuan gave it to his elder brother, Yelu Hongji is even more unlucky, and those who follow him must be Forever!

This made all the people cheer, and almost the whole city began to shout "long live".

Yelu Nerugu felt that the people's hearts were available, so he decided to go out of the city to crush Yelu Hongji and win a brilliant victory to establish his future dynasty.

So he took his father Yelu Chongyuan Yujia to personally conquer, led [-] troops, and went northward to fight Yelu Hongji.

A total of more than [-] people from both sides fought on the undulating prairie under the Great Khingan Mountains.

Wei Xiao and Nerugu stood on the high ground and looked down. They saw that the Khitan soldiers were really brave and good at fighting. Trampling on the ground made the ground tremble, and there were broken bodies and limbs everywhere they passed, and the blood was soaring.

This is different from the decisive battle in the Central Plains. There are few places in the Central Plains where so many troops can fight head-on, and there are many mountains and rivers. At the same time, the team will be deformed, stretching for tens of miles, the front army has fought with people, and the rear army has not yet left the camp.

The most important thing is that the seven Beidou armies under the command of Wei Xiao are all elite soldiers, and soldiers are more expensive than many. No matter how many mobs there are, it is useless. If they cannot be organized, it is not only a strength, but a burden.

At this time, Yelunerugu's army was a rabble. Although there were many in number, the superiors had very limited restraints on the subordinates. They all forgot the existence of their comrades-in-arms, and just kept going forward until they died in battle.

On the other hand, although Yelu Hongji had only [-] people, they were quite organized. They were divided into five armies, front, back, middle, left, and right. When advancing and retreating, each army could reach the designated position. Generally speaking, they cooperated with each other, and there was no problem with each other's horns. , and the soldiers cooperated with the infantry, and the archers and spearmen cooperated to kill a large number of soldiers on Yelu Nerugu's side.

The battle started in the morning. At the beginning, Nerugu attacked and Yelu Hongji defended. In the afternoon, the offensive and defensive momentum reversed. Yelu Hongji began to counterattack on a large scale. When it was getting dark, the two sides were evenly tied. , Yelu Hongji has the upper hand in some areas.

The people on Nerugu's side began to be impetuous again. Most of his [-] troops were improvised teams. They were still herding sheep at home yesterday, but they were brought here to fight today.

Nerugu asked Wei Xiao anxiously: "Master, you...you have suffered heavy losses, can you summon the heavenly soldiers and generals..."

He didn't believe that Wei Xiao could summon the heavenly soldiers and generals. He did this to join Wei Xiao's army. When Yelu Hongji was around, he and Wei Xiao were allies and benefited each other. Once Yelu Hongji was gone, Wei Xiao would be in Liao again Having a huge reputation is his hidden danger.

In fact, he was not defeated on the battlefield at this time, and he still had the upper hand in terms of numbers. Many of those who retreated could fight again after rectifying, and Yelu Hongji could be boiled to death. It is clear that this national teacher cannot summon heavenly soldiers and generals, laying the groundwork for breaking superstition and consolidating his imperial power in the future.
