The Orioles arrived at the Yang Mansion and soon became pampered. Although she is a disabled person, she is excellent in appearance and skills, and she is very fond of Yang Ye. However, Yang Ye is a young and strong martial artist who often waits in bed, and Red Oriole feels a little overwhelmed.
In 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 commit criminals from getting in. As long as it is from a good family, there is no problem; because there has not been such an undercover incident, people do not understand... As for the 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 claimed a massive attack of 200,000!
In early July, Zhou Jun left Liaozhou (the southeastern part of the Northern Han Dynasty, now Zuoquan County, Shanxi). In Liaozhou, the city wall was not strong enough. It was repeatedly fought over for several years. First, Li Jun found the opportunity to occupy Liaozhou. Later, the Zhou court could not take care of the north, and Li Jun had no intention of fighting with the North Han. There was another drastic change of power, and the Northern Han Dynasty easily took back this place; not long ago, Murong Yanzhao took the post of Luzhou Zhaoyi Army's Jiedi Envoy and took back Liaozhou, which had little defense.
Two days later, the Zhou dynasty army attacked to the northwest and came under Longzhou city. Longzhou is in a hurry.
Now the Northern Han Dynasty really feels 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! The gateway 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. If that is the case, the Northern Han Dynasty cannot survive.
The Lord of the Northern Han Dynasty first sent General Feng Jinke, General 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 hurried 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 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 North Han Dynasty. They would not transfer troops from a place as far away as Shangjing, but they had to go to Beijing if they wanted to negotiate the dispatch 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 mid-Tang Dynasty. Today, the Liao State is no longer a completely nomadic nation. It is a half-farming and half-pastoral country. Even in Youyun, Bohai and other areas, 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; it is divided into the imperial city and Seoul, with a circumference of more than ten li, it is a big city. Especially in Seoul in the south, 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. But the place where the messengers from the Northern Han Dynasty were received and settled was on the open ground north of the palace. There were many tents here, and the messengers lived in tents.
The messenger didn't 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 he saw the ministers sent by the Liao State in an official office. There was no actual progress in this meeting. What they did was just submit the credentials. The officials said some clichés in the emperor’s imperial decree. As for the negotiation of 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 the real thing, not on the scene, but in private discussion 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 the long-term study of the Central Plains official system, it also has some habits.
The messenger from the North Han Dynasty wanted to bribe the prime minister of Liao with the property they had brought, but the aides discouraged it. The North Han Dynasty was equally important to the Liao Kingdom. They would not sit idly by. If they were too low-pitched, it would be wrong; but the messenger was worried. The Liao Emperor was a faint emperor, and regardless of the overall situation, he decided to visit the prime minister to teach someone to help.
The emperor of the Liao Kingdom had also known in private about the Zhou army’s invasion of the Northern Han Dynasty, before the arrival of the Northern Han Dynasty envoys.
...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 to Yelvdilu for seeing him (Yang Dagon, the Khitan general who reinforced the Northern Han Dynasty during the Gaoping War).
Yelüjing announced his insight. Yang Dagon had just returned from Youzhou, his face looked tired, but when he entered the palace, he had already looked scared, and immediately bowed in front of the tiger skin soft couch.
When Ye Lujing saw this, he sighed secretly, asking me whether I was so terrible; his appearance was indeed fierce, his eyebrows and beards were very hard...According to the way of courtesy of the Khitan people, Yang Dagon completely You don't need to kneel, just press your chest and bow; but he still bowed.
This person is considered a more trusted general by Yelujing. Yelujing even sent him to Youzhou to visit Xiao Siwen, but he still trembled in front of the emperor.
Yelüjing said: Still no one can understand my difficulties. People are afraid of him, probably because he often kills people around him personally, but Yelujing feels that he really didn’t 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 aristocrat who has long wanted to find. 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 or aristocrat with a little status for no reason, and he did not dare.
But he is indeed cruel, 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 turbulence and stability of the Liao Kingdom 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 uneven. 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 Kingdom also betrayed the Liao Kingdom and were put down by war.
Yelüjing feels that this situation cannot be entirely blamed on herself, but everyone seems 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 bear the name of 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 and fought a battle without winning. Under the persuasion of the nobles, he reconciled and recognized the throne of Liao Shizong.
This laid the bane for the subsequent legitimacy of the throne. After Emperor 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 became the emperor; the emperor Yelvjing killed Yelvchaka 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 pawns|changes and assassinations. The first two were not long, and several times he was killed before becoming a... Only Yelujing was still sitting here. , Although not so secure.
In this situation, when an emperor, who is the |mother| able to be at ease? Ye Lujing was actually very scared...Of course he also made others scared.
He is in a bad mood every day. 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 does not want to admit that faint|jun can sit the emperor in this situation? If it was so easy, Shizong Liao was not too faint and should not be killed.
Yelüjing has a headache recently, and he discovered that the real danger may not only come from Yelushi...because no matter who kills him, the essence of the throne will remain the same and remain unstable. But what if the Xiao family, which has always been the royal marriage and has long been designated as the prime minister's gate, is involved?
Yelüjing feels nervous every day and thinks a lot. 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 achievements and prestige were comparable to Taizong, there might be no chaos behind.
If Xiao Clan is really that hard, he would not be ill-intentioned towards Liao, but Yelujing himself would become a gangster for the dead! Therefore, Yelujing sent Yang Dagon to Youzhou for a period of time, just to observe Xiao Siwen's usual performance. r1058
