Water Margin farming to become powerful

As soon as Xie Zhen returned from Guo Yaoshi's camp, she saw a commotion outside the village where she lived. At first, Xie Zhen didn't know what was going on. It wasn't until she heard several people on the roadside speaking with Shandong accents that she suddenly realized what was going on.

He quickly asked the driver to stop the vehicle, and then asked a rather sturdy young man on the side of the road: "Are you the protection army from Shandong?"

The young man nodded listening to Jie Zhen's accent. Jie Zhen became excited instantly and quickly asked the coachman to drive the carriage back to the village.

When Xie Zhen returned to her office in the village, she saw a tall man already sitting in the house, holding a military map and discussing matters with the two supervisors of Zhuozhou's maternity care team. When Xie Zhen arrived, Shi Xiu stood up with a smile.

Xie Zhen asked: "Why did you come so quickly? I only received the news from the master two days ago that you were coming."

Shi Xiu smiled and said: "We also hurriedly came from Shandong on the order of the owner of the village. We just landed in Tianjin and rushed to Zhuozhou."

"We landed a few days ago?"

Xie Zhen asked: "How many days did you spend on the road?"

"A rapid march, in five days, a reinforced regiment was formed, and all the baggage was transported."

Hearing this, Jie Zhen was stunned for a while, because the roads in the Liao Kingdom were not easy to travel, especially since the members of the Supervisory Committee had to make various disguises to move, and the walking speed was even slower.

At that time, he came to Zhuozhou from Tianjin to take up his post, and it took him less than half a month in the middle. However, Shi Xiu and the others brought weapons and luggage, and thousands of people rushed to Zhuozhou in only ten days.

In addition to being surprised by the speed of their actions, Xie Zhen also sensed something from this quick action.

He glanced at the map on the table and asked in a low voice: "But what new orders does the village owner have?"

Shi Xiu's expression also became serious, and she nodded and went to the map with Xie Zhen, pointed to the situation map of Zhuozhou, and said, "The Zhuang Master wants us to rush to Zhuozhou to help recover the two states of Zhuoyi. There is no one of our own here." Soldiers and horses will not do it after all.”

Xie Zhen was quite surprised when he heard this. Although he knew that Sun Xin wanted to use Guo Pharmacist to regain Zhuozhou, he did not expect that an opportunity would arise in Sun Xin's judgment position in such a short period of time.

Xie Zhen was a little doubtful as to why Sun Xin could make such an accurate judgment. He really couldn't figure out why every time the master could immediately capture the major events that were about to happen with only a small amount of information.

However, since Master made an order, Xie Zhen naturally had to carry it out, and arranged for the garrison to contact the local Han officials. After a few days of carrying out the order, they soon realized that Sun Xin's early judgment was not groundless.

In May of that year, Zhao Ji finally couldn't bear it any longer and ordered the Song army to expedition to the north. Originally, Northern Liao was still quite frightened when they heard about the Song army's arrival. Xiao Qian personally led the troops on the expedition. Unexpectedly, even though Daliao was already in a precarious situation, it still remained the same. It was a huge defeat of the Song Army. In fact, it has been seen that the Song Army's problem was not in terms of combat effectiveness. It was still able to defeat the Song Army despite the excellent international situation. It can only be said that there was a big problem with the entire command system.

The Song army was defeated and the situation in the south was once again stabilized, but Yelu Chun still couldn't sleep at night because the struggle in Yanjing had become extremely fierce.

Yelu Chun was able to become emperor only because he was dragged up by the Khitan and Xi officials who stayed in Yanjing. As for Han officials, they did not have much say in the top political circles of the Liao Kingdom. They just went wherever the wind blew. Which way to fall.Among the forces supporting Yelu Chun, the most powerful main force is the Xi clan force headed by Xiao Qian.

Xiao Qian was born into a family of Xi tribe leaders and was the leader of all the tribes of the Xi tribe. Several major tribes among the Xi tribe had formed a solid alliance with the Khitan people for a long time, but after all, they still had separate interests from each other.

The main reason is that the Khitan tribe does not have the ability to completely annihilate the power of the Xi tribe. At the same time, the Khitan people have a strong sense of national identity and are unwilling to integrate the Khitan Xi tribe into the Khitan system. Therefore, the Xi nobles The upper class of the Liao Kingdom has always been an influential presence.

After Emperor Tianzuo led his troops to escape, there were no strong Khitan troops south of the Great Wall.

As the king of Xi Liubu and the general commander of the East Route Army, Xiao Qian has become the most powerful faction in the entire Northern Liao. Also because he has dead Xi people under his command, Yelu Dashi, the leader of the Khitans in Northern Liao, can only Join forces with Xiao Qian.

The two of them repelled the Song army's first attack on the Liao Kingdom with less than [-] soldiers and horses.

The reason why Yelu Chun was established as emperor was also the result of the balance of power between Yelu Dashi and Xiao Qian. This old man in his 60s was the person they felt was most suitable to be emperor and easy to control.

After Yelu Chun ascended the throne, he did not want to be completely ignored by the two men, so he rewarded the victorious army in this way. This was also an opportunity for Pharmacist Guo to rise.

Yelu Chun could have been Pharmacist Guo's biggest reliance, but after entering May, the emperor Yelu Chun's behavior was obviously not right.

His role as emperor was really terrible. Since he was rushed to the throne in March, the only territory he can actually control is an area south of the small Great Wall. In the north, the Jin people are peeping at Juyongguan, and in the south, Zhao Ji can't do anything. Carry out a Northern Expedition with 10,000+ people.

There was also a big case in May. The Han official leader Taiwei Li Chuwen who persuaded Yelvchun to become emperor actually sent someone to contact Tong Guan and wanted to return to the Song Dynasty.

This Li Chuwen was not an upright official, and was notorious for corruption in the Liao Kingdom. The reason why he contacted the Song Dynasty was not because of the outbreak of national sentiment, but purely because he wanted to find a way out for himself.

After all, it seems from this time that almost all the Han people in the north have the same feeling. The Liao Dynasty is in danger and will be destroyed soon. In their opinion, although they cannot fight, the Song Dynasty, which is really rich, seems to be able to last for a long time, and before the Song Dynasty, The Liao people also knew that they had formed a maritime alliance with the Jin Kingdom and were about to take back the Sixteenth State of Yanyun. So instead of dying with the Liao Dynasty, it would be better to exchange their current status for great wealth.

After the incident, Li Chuwen and his son were killed by the Liao people, but this also caused the Khitan and Xi people in the Northern Liao court to greatly reduce their trust in the Han people.

Zhao Ji wanted to restore the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun under the slogan of restoring the Han family's rivers and mountains. After that, these Han people could still be Zhao Ji's senior officials, but the Khitan people and the Xi people had only a dead end. There was the Song Dynasty in the south and the Jin Kingdom in the north. If you stick to this road, you won't have a chance to escape.

Originally, this incident would have had a certain impact on Yelu Chun, but at this time Yelu Chun was already seriously ill. The reason was that in addition to the troubles of the Song Dynasty and the Jin Kingdom, the old man was blaming himself for another news:
Emperor Tianzuo fled to the desert. At this time, he finally received the news. He was shocked to learn that his uncle who stayed in Yanjing to defend him against the Jin people had actually ascended the throne himself.
