Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

When the Orioles arrived at the Yang Mansion, they soon became pampered. Although she is a disabled person, she is excellent in appearance and skill, and she is very fond of Yang Ye. However, Yang Ye was a young and strong martial artist, and the Orioles felt a little overwhelmed.

Within a few days, a "cousin" from Hongying's hometown came to join him. He also had a Yangzhou accent. Because he didn't have a provincial level, he wanted to have a meal in the mansion and successfully became the groom of the Yang mansion. In this world, the big family accepts people mainly to prevent people who are rapists from coming in. As long as it is from a good family, it is not a big problem; because there has not been such an undercover incident, people do not understand... As for that cousin, there is no problem with the master's concubine as a guarantee.

...In a few days, it will be even more difficult for people outside to enter Jinyang, because news of wars and wars has spread on the market. The Great Zhou Army is known as a massive offensive of 200,000!

In early July, Zhou Jun left Liaozhou (the southeastern part of the Northern Han Dynasty, today Zuoquan County, Shanxi). In Liaozhou, the city wall was not strong enough. It was repeatedly fought over for several years. First, Li Yun found the opportunity to occupy Liaozhou. Later, the Zhou court could not take care of the north, and Li Yun had no intention of fighting with the North Han. There was another drastic power change, and the Northern Han Dynasty easily took back this place; not long ago, Murong Yanzhao took the post of Luzhou Zhaoyi Army Jiedu Envoy and took back Liaozhou, which had little defense.

Two days later, the Zhou dynasty's army attacked northwest and came under Longzhou city. Longzhou is in a hurry.

This time the Northern Han Dynasty really felt urgent. The status of Longzhou is completely different from that of Liaozhou. This is the gate of the southern part of the Northern Han Dynasty! It is an important town, Fenzhou to the west (Jinzhou is also an important town in Zhou Guo's hands), and Longzhou to the east! If Longzhou is lost, Zhou Jun will directly occupy an important town at the gate of the capital, and can threaten the capital of the Northern Han Dynasty at any time. In that case, the Northern Han Dynasty cannot survive.

The Lord of the Northern Han Dynasty first sent General Feng Jinke of the Guardsman to lead the Imperial Cavalry to mobilize all troops and horses to aid Longzhou. The two sides fought a battle. Although Feng Jinke fought hard, he was outnumbered and was defeated and hurriedly fled back to Jinyang.

The Lord of the Northern Han Dynasty sent Yang Ye to lead his army to resist the enemy. Yang Ye annexed Baigu, did not move, and was unwilling to go to a decisive battle... The Northern Han Dynasty did not blame the urging, and even many ministers pragmatically said that the Zhou army was aggressive, and the major general Yang Yebing was too few to win; the army of Baigu could prevent Longzhou. The enemy soldiers from both sides of Liaozhou harassed the capital.

Longzhou was besieged and attacked by the Zhou army and asked for help many times. Liu Jun had no plan to retreat, so he hurriedly sent envoys to Liao State for help.

...... The capital of Liao State is in Shangjing (probably located in the south of Daxinganling, north of Henghe). They sent troops to the Northern Han Dynasty. They would not transfer troops from a place as far away as Shangjing, but they had to go to Beijing to negotiate the sending of troops.

The Liao State has been established for more than 50 years. The existence of the Khitan forces in the Northeast cannot be ignored since the middle of the Tang Dynasty. Today, the Liao State is no longer a completely nomadic country. It is a country of half farming and half pastoralism, even in the quiet. In Yun, Bohai and other regions, farming is the main economic mode. The capital, Shangjing, also shows this form well. Shangjing is not a place for tents, it is indeed a city; divided into the Imperial City and Seoul, it is a big city with a circumference of more than ten li. Especially in the southern part of Seoul, there are settled craftsman workshops, commercial areas, and porcelain production.

The main palace of the imperial palace is on a hill in the middle of the imperial city. However, the place where the messengers from the North Han Dynasty were received and settled was on the open ground north of the palace. There were many tents, and the messengers lived in tents.

The messenger did not see the emperor of the Liao Kingdom during the day. No matter how urgent he was, he could only spend a whole day in the tent, vaguely heard that the emperor was sleeping now! So I can't meet. The messenger had heard in Jinyang that the emperor of the Liao Kingdom was very cruel and had only two things in his life: sleeping and killing! But drinking and hunting are also his hobbies. This is just a rumor, and now it seems that it is mostly true.

Early the next morning, the messenger still did not see the emperor, but saw the ministers sent by the Liao State in an official office. There was no actual progress in this meeting. What they were doing was just submitting the credentials. The officials said some clichés in the emperor’s imperial decree. As for the discussion on the dispatch of troops and rescue, it was not mentioned, and it was impossible to give an answer on the spot...the situation is urgent. , The messenger did such a thing in two days in Beijing.

However, to do real things, not on the scene, but in private discussions underneath. The politics of the Central Plains dynasty is like this. The Liao Kingdom bears the brand and characteristics of the tribe, but because of long-term learning of the Central Plains official system, it also has some habits.

The messengers of the Northern Han Dynasty wanted to bribe the prime minister of Liao with the property they had brought, but the aides discouraged them. The Northern Han Dynasty was equally important to the Liao Kingdom. They would not sit back and watch. If they were too low-pitched, it would be wrong. Unconscious Jun, regardless of the overall situation, he decided to visit the prime minister so that he could teach someone to help.

The emperor of the Liao Kingdom had also known in private that the Zhou army had invaded the Northern Han Dynasty, before the arrival of the Northern Han Dynasty envoy.

...Liao emperor Yelujing, learned of this, came back from the "Daliao Posthouse" (Embassy) in Jinyang. But Yelujing never paid any attention... Jinyang city is strong and will not be captured and destroyed so quickly, otherwise Liao will not be able to protect them; if Liao is too urgent to rescue, it will be difficult to control this when it is in diplomatic relations with the Northern Han Dynasty. country.

At this moment, people reported that Yeludi Lu had seen him (Yang Dagon, a Khitan general who reinforced the Northern Han Dynasty during the Gaoping War).

Yelujing announced his admission. Yang Dagon had just returned from Youzhou, his face looked tired, but when he entered the palace, he was already afraid, and he bowed in front of the tiger-skin couch.

Upon seeing this, Yelujing sighed inwardly, asking me whether I was so terrible; his appearance was indeed fierce, his eyebrows and beards were very hard...According to the Khitan people’s way of seeing courtesy, Yang Dagon did not need to kneel. , Just press his chest and bow; but he still bowed.

This person was considered a more trusted general by Yelujing. Yelujing even sent him to Youzhou to visit Xiao Simwen, but he still trembled in front of the emperor.

Ye Lujing thought: Still no one can understand my difficulties. Others are afraid of him, probably because he often kills people around him personally, but Yelujing feels that he really did not kill people indiscriminately. He usually only kills two kinds of people, one is the aristocrat who was first reduced to a slave, and the other is the noble who wanted to find him. Those who have the opportunity to get rid of...Of course, sometimes they also get rid of some insignificant slaves. However, he had never killed a minister and nobleman with a little status for no reason, and he did not dare.

But he is indeed cruel by nature, and he is very happy when he kills! Just like drinking and hunting, often getting drunk is not all pretending, it is also a hobby for a long time.

So people are afraid of him, and this is what he wants to see... The emperor Yelujing is not easy to be an emperor, and his position is not stable. This is also the essential reason for the turbulent and unstable situation in Liao State for many years. He wants people to be afraid of him, or he would have been killed long ago!

The current situation in Liao Kingdom is very uneasy. After Yelujing ascended the throne, there have been three major internal rebellions that want to kill the king on his own. It seems that there is no intention to stop there. As for the small rebellion and the intent of rebellion, even Yelujing doesn’t remember it clearly, it’s too much. More... In addition, the Shiwei and Wugu Divisions that had long been attached to the Liao State also betrayed the Liao State and were put down by war.

Yelujing felt that he could not be blamed for this situation, but everyone seemed to want to put all the blame on him! The reason is that he is cruel...If he were not cruel, how many people wanted this throne, he would have been killed long ago! This made him very unhappy, and he was even more annoyed when he thought that he would be named as a tyrant after death. But there is no way for a while.

Why do so many people want this throne? This can be traced back to the death of Emperor Taizong of the Liao Dynasty, when Shizong of the Liao Dynasty was embraced by generals as emperor (between Taizong and Shizong, there was a Yizong who was a posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous emperor who had never actually been an emperor). Sejong was not Taizong's son; the empress dowager who went to Beijing at that time did not recognize the emperor, fought a battle and failed to win, and reconciled with the persuasion of the nobles, and recognized the throne of Liao Shizong.

This laid the bane of the subsequent legitimacy of the throne. After Taizong of the Liao Dynasty, several emperors of the Liao Kingdom failed to suppress the great achievements and great prestige of the tribes; therefore, the descendants of Abaoji thought that they should be emperors, and even thought that the throne was originally theirs.

Liao Shizong sat on the throne for three years, and the Huoshendian Rebellion occurred. Liao Shizong was cut and killed by the Yan King Yelvcha, and Chajia proclaimed himself emperor; Taizongzi Yelvjing also killed Yelvchacha and became the emperor. Does this throne belong to the line of Yizong, or the line of Taizong and Sejong? (Both Yizong and Taizong were the sons of Abaoji, the great ancestor of the Liao Kingdom.) Obviously, the descendants of both sides felt qualified, and both felt that they were rooted in the |miao|hong.

In just a few years, the emperor was changed three times through military changes and assassinations. The first two were not long, and several times he was killed before becoming a... Only Yelujing was still sitting in this position. Not so stable.

In this situation, when an emperor, who is the |mother| can be at ease? Yelujing is actually very scared...Of course he also makes others very scared~www.readwn.com~ He is in a bad mood every day, and only when he drinks a lot of alcohol can he feel a moment of joy. Some people say that he is a tyrant|jun, he still has self-knowledge and admits it; but if he is a faint|jun, he doesn't want to admit that he is a tyrant|jun, can he sit still as the emperor in this situation? If it was that easy, Shizong Liao was not too faint and should not be killed.

Yelujing has a headache recently, and he discovered that the real danger may not only come from Yelushi...because no matter who kills him, his essence remains the same after he sits on the throne, and he is still unstable. But what if the Xiao family, which has always been royal marriages and has long been designated as the prime minister's gate, is involved?

Yelujing is nervous and thinks a lot every day. He even suspects that his reputation is so bad, it is Xiao's long-term strategy; Xiao wants to put all the blame on him, and then come forward to support a certain person ascending the throne, trying to end the chaos of the throne... But new Your prestige is also very important! If Shizong Liao's achievement and prestige were comparable to Taizong, there might be no chaos behind.

If Xiao Clan really did that, and didn't have any bad intentions towards the Liao Country, but Yelujing himself would become a bully for the dead! Therefore, Yelvjing sent Yang Dagon to Youzhou for a period of time, just to observe Xiao Siwen's usual performance. r1058
