Became a feudal lord in the late Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 69 Activate the equipment card and equip our Liu Ling with a Princess of Liao

Generally speaking, you can't use both sides to describe small people.

For example, Mongolia is caught between two major countries. Does it have any choice?

The true meaning of these four words is that after reaching a certain height, most people around you cannot say that they will obediently cater to your wishes, but at least they will not dare to go against your wishes immediately.

Translated into simpler terms, that is: the general trend.

This was not the first time that Wanyan's mother was defeated in Pingzhou. When Zhang Jue betrayed him, he led the Pingzhou soldiers to fight him several times. He was able to win at the beginning, but in the end, he was directly defeated by Zhang Jue in the last battle. He didn't send anyone back to ask for help until Wanyan Zongwang arrived.

So now, Wanyan's mother still feels that she was defeated by Zhang Dungu's Pingzhou soldiers, not the dead young general in front of her.

Wanyan Yan's mother was Wanyan Zongwang's uncle, but when she saw her niece-in-law kneeling at Liu Ling's feet, she didn't react at all. Instead, she laughed and said, "You want to humiliate me?"

Without waiting for Liu Ling to answer, he shook his head and said softly: "Innocent."

The general trend is in the hands of the Jin people, whether it is the hometown of Liao Kingdom in the past or Yanyun today.

Pharmacist Guo finally implemented Liu Ling's plan because he ensured that he would not go to war with the Jin people.

The look in Wanyan's mother's eyes reminded Liu Ling of Empress Dowager Xiao who was at the gate of Yanjing City.

Disdain, arrogance, and even a hint of pity, like a strong man looking down on pigs and dogs.

No matter how cold the north wind in the land of Yanyun is, it can't be as cold as the bitter cold of the white mountains and black waters.

Nowadays, the second round of scorching sun has slowly risen in Dajin, shining on the bitter cold land of white mountains and black waters. It is also enough to melt the ice, snow and cold wind in the sixteen states of Yanyun, making this place a racecourse for them.

"I don't like the expression on your face. You'd better restrain yourself." Liu Ling said lightly.

Wanyan's mother became more and more calm, smiled, and asked: "Do you dare to kill me?"

Liu Ling suddenly stood up, picked up the cold saber, put the blade on his neck, and slowly withdrew his hand, and the blood clots that had condensed into ice on the blade were rubbed down, and were melted bit by bit by his body temperature into ice. Blood slowly flowed down his neck.

"Do you know who I am?" Wanyan's mother endured the coldness and shouted, "I am Dajin."

"Do you know who I am?" Liu Ling also asked softly, with a playful look in his eyes.

Without waiting for Wanyan's mother to answer, Liu Ling patted his face with the blade of the knife. Wanyan's mother also looked at him, enduring the cold touch on her neck and the trembling of her body. She was also a little confused in her heart. He was so young and fierce. If the ruthless general is in the Pingzhou Army, he must have known about it.

Liu Ling turned his head slightly, and when Wanyan Yanmu was staring at him intently, he said softly:
  "Great Song Dynasty, Liu Ling."

"General Liu, you shouldn't talk nonsense to that Wanyan Yanmu. If he comes back alive now, wouldn't it give him a chance to attack in the future?"

Shi Liai sat down next to him and handed Liu Ling a bowl of hot tea.

"Wanyan Mu herself said that the domestic food shortage was serious, not only due to civil uprisings and uprisings, but also the constant rebellions on the part of the Liao soldiers. The Liao emperor even attacked in the Jiashan area and captured Wuzhou. At least in Within a year, they won’t be able to attack south again.”

Liu Ling's hand holding the tea cup trembled slightly, and there was a clear wound on the back of his hand. When Shi Liai saw it, he couldn't help but said, "Is it necessary to wash it in person?"

"If I don't take the lead in the charge, why should the soldiers below work for me?" Liu Ling put down his tea bowl and felt a little warmer. He raised his head and poked his heart, and said: "No matter how smart a person is, there will be times when he gets the upper hand."

Shi Liai narrowed his eyes, "The general will persuade people to sacrifice their lives for you."

"Do you think shouting a few slogans and giving them a little money and food on weekdays can make them follow me to engage in life-threatening business? After all, who is willing to die if there is a chance to live? I just want them to die when they are in the right situation. When they were in a desperate situation, I gave them a choice. Now as long as the soldiers can come back with me alive, I will never treat them badly."

"There is already a way to survive."

Shi Liai said calmly: "There are two options next, which one are you going to choose?" "Continue to offend the Jin people and cater to the Song people." Liu Ling couldn't help but clicked his tongue, "It sounds weird."

"You can't ride on two boats," Shi Liai shook his head and poured himself another bowl of hot water. "The weather is cold and people's hearts are even colder. Since Yaoshi Guo has offended you to death, he will definitely I won’t let you go again, and I might even personally lead an army to attack you.”

"Pharmacist Guo himself made a private deal with the Jin people. This is one of them. In addition, don't forget that before he did anything, he had already captured all the Song officials including Wang Anzhong. And as you said, not only did you He avoided Song casualties when attacking Xiongzhou, and secretly released Cai Jing in Zhuozhou and let him take charge of the city.

He is good with the Jin people, and you are good with the Song people. Both sides are placing bets, and it is not necessarily who will win, but since you are sitting on the gambling table, no one can kick you off until you lose all your money easily. "

Shi Liai took out the map and pointed at the location of Zhuozhou.

"To put it simply, I still have some familiar friends in Pingzhou. I will ask them to persuade Zhang Dungu. This man was lifted up and put in that position by them. He will not disobey. As for you, Wanyan Yanmu, Trade thousands of troops and horses with him and find a way to bypass Jizhou.
  This is not difficult. The sentinels of the Pingzhou Army said that the Jin Army and the Changsheng Army were facing each other across Lushui. You only need to go around from the south of Jizhou and return to Zhuozhou. "

After saying that, Shi Liai nodded slightly: "Don't forget, you still have a Liao princess in your hands."

"You mean" Shi Liai was referring to the young and coquettish woman Liu Ling caught in the camp. She was the princess of the Liao Kingdom and the Shu Kingdom. The maid said she was Wanyan Zongwang's wife.

Although he didn't know Wanyan Zongwang's attitude towards her, Liu Ling knew that he could no longer flirt with the golden man.

I heard that honest and honest foreigners would use their wives as entertainment items when entertaining guests. Wanyan Zongwang probably would not be so generous.

Liu Ling thought for a moment and sent someone to call her over. He wanted to ask some questions in front of Shi Liai, but he didn't notice Shi Liai's meaningful gaze.

Yelu Yuliyan arrived soon, wearing a snow-white fox fur, his face was pale, and there was a sad charm between his eyebrows, like the weather-beaten wintersweet branches.

"Are you the princess of Liao?" Liu Ling asked casually.

Yelu Yuliyan lowered his head and responded timidly.

"You mean, let me dedicate her to Da Song?"

"wrong!"

Liu Ling raised his eyebrows and looked at Shi Liai's expression that seemed excited and helpless.

"We have discussed that there is no use keeping Wanyan Yanmu in our hands, so we have to hand him over to Zhang Dungu. The latter can use it to negotiate terms with the Song people. In fact, you can too, but the most important thing for you right now is to return Arrive at Zhuozhou.

Then the problem comes. You have no soldiers, so there is no point in going back. So give Wanyan Mu to Zhang Dungu, and I can ask him to give you thousands of soldiers and horses to go back and defend the city.

But after you go back, let’s talk about the best case scenario, that is, if you go back and defend Zhuozhou City, the Song Dynasty will definitely reward you, but even then, you are just the second Pharmacist Guo, even the Song Dynasty The imperial court can more easily manipulate you, because your power can only survive by relying on them. "

Shi Liai pointed at Yelu Yuliyan who looked frightened next to him, "But I didn't expect that you actually got her."

"she?"

Listening to Shi Liai's tone, Liu Ling didn't know why he was so excited.

"General Liu, she is the princess of Liao Kingdom. Don't you think of other ways to use her?"

"Beauty trap?" Liu Ling said thoughtfully.

Hearing that Liu Ling seemed to be sending him out, Yelu Yuliyan suddenly became even more frightened.

Shi Liai covered his face, rubbed it, and said with some depression: "If you marry her, you can openly appeal to the old people of the Liao Kingdom. In addition to relying on the Song people, she is your second asset. In this way At first, you did have to enmity with Wanyan Zongwang, but you have already killed so many Jin people, it is impossible to relax.

As long as she is still with you, even if the Emperor of Liao on the other side of Jiashan is killed in battle, you will still be a rare commodity. If the people of Song Dynasty are smarter, at a critical moment, they can even allow you to legitimately restore the country of Liao. "
