On the second day of October, Xijing City...

Xiao Delidi refused sternly and would never surrender.

The news of the Liao army's defeat gave him a heavy blow. He could not understand no matter what, how could the Liao army be defeated? What reason would it be defeated? Yelu Ma Ge is also a general who can fight well. Why did he not fight back when he met Li Hu, and he could only get beaten? After this battle, more than half of the troops on Xijing Road lost, and the army that could safely escape from the Great Wall was only more than 60,000. In the short term, at least before the first heavy snow this winter, the Emperor of the Great Liao did not have the ability to fight back to Xijing, and Xijing fell.

The Xijing was lost, and the five capitals were lost, while the Zhongjing was being attacked by the Jurchens and the Han thieves. Although Nanjing was still in the hands of the Liao people, it could be trapped in the Jurchens at any time. The Song people and the Han thieves in the Liaodong. At this moment, the situation in the Liao Dynasty was in danger, and the country was shaking. Seeing that more than two hundred years of foundation was about to turn into the dust of history and passed away with the wind.

Xiao Delidi had no choice but to surrender. Otherwise, Li Hu might have bloody massacres, burned, killed and plundered after entering Xijing. However, he was the prime minister of the Liao Dynasty. He represented the dignity of the Khitans. No matter from any angle, he could not kneel at Li Hu's feet and humiliate the Daliao and the Khitans.

"I will not surrender." Xiao Delidi stood up, his eyes stumbled away in pain and despair, "I will never surrender."

Xiao Tymo and Jelusaba looked at each other speechlessly and sighed sadly. Because they were worried that Xiao Deliddie would commit suicide after his despair, Jelusaba hurriedly called the guards and whispered a few words, telling them to watch carefully.

"After this, we can only surrender." Xiaotmo said to Jelusaba, "We have no army or reinforcements. The city is unsafe every day. Once Li Hu is allowed to come in, the consequences can be imagined."

"But who can guarantee that Li Hu will not slaughter the city? He will not kill the Khitans? The Han thieves rebelled to kill the enemy and restore the Han Dynasty, and to kill the Khitans." Yelu Sa said with fear in his eight eyes.

"Then how do you plan to defend the city? How many days can you defend? It angered Li Hu, let's do it together."

Yelu Saba stopped talking and sat there blankly with his head down, in great pain. After the Khitans finished, the glory of more than two hundred years disappeared.

Xiao Tyrmo returned to the headquarters and told Li Hu. The fourth day of the first lunar month, Jelusaba, to offer the city. However, he made a small request and asked Li Hu not to enslave troops to ensure the stability of the Xijing land.

"Of course I want to rob it. If I don't rob it, what will I eat or drink?" Li Hu smiled. "I went from Liaoxi to Xijing Road. The journey took more than 1,000 miles. It took three months. If I don't rob it, how can I survive? The army and people in our country have more than 200,000 people. They tied their heads to the belt and followed me to the expedition to Yunshuo without complaint. Today I captured Xijing. If I don't rob it, what can I reward them? There is no land acquisition for nothing in this world. There is no need to eat grass and run a horse. If I want people to work hard, I will repay them." Li Hu spread his hands. "I am a pauper and have nothing. If I don't rob it, can I be a local tyrant?"

Xiao Temo had a cold war. Anger suddenly rushed out of his heart. He couldn't help but ask angrily. "Are you lie to me? Are you traitorous? Are you going to go back on your word?"

Li Hu laughed. "Who am I? I am a rebel Li Hu. I started my business by rebelling. I bought people's hearts by killing the enemy and restoring the Han Dynasty. I will not kill the Khitans. How can I gain my trust in the Han people in Liaodong? How can I gain my foothold in Yanyun? If I listen to you, you are brothers and brothers, my subordinates will make me rebellious and chop my head. The Han people in Liaodong and the Han people in Yanyun. They will abandon me and despise me. Although Liaodong is big, there is no longer the land where I, Li Hu, stands in the cone. Do you understand?"

"You promised me that I would not slaughter the city, and that I would not slaughter the Khitans." Xiao Temo was furious and furious. He waved his hands excitedly and roared loudly.

"Of course I won't massacre the city, nor will I slaughter the Khitans." Li Hu smiled even more happily. He pointed at his nose and said, "Who is Li Hu? I am the tiger king in Liaodong. I have always kept my promises. I will never regret it when I said the words."

Xiao Temo was frightened by Li Hu, frightened and angry, and was speechless, not knowing what Li Hu was going to do.

"You go back first." Li Hu waved to Wang Dazhong behind him, Xie Yidao, and signaled them to send Xiao Temo away. "You will know in a few days." That night, Li Hu invited Dong Xiaochou, Tie Ying, Mao Jun, Huang She, Huo Liuge, Chai Yun, Yuan Ye and others to the big tent to discuss the matter after capturing Xijing.

There is no obstacle to capturing Xijing. Even if Yelu Saba is unwilling to surrender, the rebels will definitely be sure to take down the city within half a day. This is the first time the rebels have occupied a large city. In a sense, it means that the rebels have officially gained their own stable territory, officially rose in Liaodong, and officially obtained the qualification to score three points of Liaodong with the Khitans and Jurchens.

When Li Hu and everyone agreed that western Liaoning was just a place to rest, and the foundation for the survival and development of the rebel army was Youyan. At that time, no one thought that Xijing was too far away from western Liaoning. However, as the situation developed, the rebel army actually crossed the Taihang Mountains and entered Xijing Road, and miraculously captured Xijing.

Xijing Datong is a good place. This place used to be called Pingcheng. It was first built during the Warring States Period, and was an important town in the northern border during the Qin and Han Dynasties. In the early days of the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the Xianbei Tuoba established the Wei Kingdom (known in history as the Northern Wei Kingdom), and built the capital in Pingcheng, called Daijing, and it lasted for 96 years in the seven emperors. This was the first time that Datong flourished in the history of Datong. When it came to the Liao Kingdom, Xijing Datong Prefecture was established here, as one of the Liao capitals, and since then it was renamed Datong.

Datong has been a military city and strategic location since ancient times. It is "faced with the border three sides, the most important one, connecting to Shanggu in the east, reaching Heng in the south, connecting to the Yellow River in the west, controlling the desert in the north, and ensuring the Central Plains." Its geographical location is extremely dangerous. The Tuoba clan of the Northern Wei Dynasty took Datong as the foundation and unified the territory of the north bank of the Yellow River, thus laying the foundation for a 150-year-old situation of north-south tyranny. This was a history hundreds of years ago and a feat of competing for the world. This also gave the Liaodong Rebel Army an example of a reference.

The cause of this Western Expedition was that Li Hu revised the survival and development strategy of the Rebel Army. Li Hu believed that the Great Liao was no longer able to last for a few years, so he was eager to seize Yanyun, and then surrender to the Song Dynasty, use strong vassals to plan the country and compete for the world. It takes time to implement this strategy, especially before the Rebel Army established itself in Yanyun, it is necessary to ensure the three-way pattern of Liaodong, that is, the Liao Kingdom cannot be destroyed now. Once the Liao Kingdom is destroyed, the Jurchens' land soldiers will be directly aimed at Yanyun. At this time, Li Hu's foothold is not stable and failed to gain the trust of the Song Dynasty, which will definitely be difficult to support, and he is more likely to be attacked by the Jurchens and the Song people and defeated them.

Time is related to the future fate of the rebel army, so the rebel army must occupy Yanyun before the Jurchens destroyed the Liao Kingdom. For this reason, Li Hu launched the Western Expedition regardless of everything. The Western Expedition was quite smooth. He took Yanjing within three months and could control Datong Prefecture, Shuo, Ying and Wei Prefectures and the southern prefectures and counties of Fengsheng Prefecture. After heavy snow in December, the rebel army immediately obtained two or three months of rest time. With this time, the rebel army could further stabilize the Xijing and its surrounding prefectures, and at the same time be prepared to attack Yanjing.

However, the rebel army's strategy was basically wishful thinking, because after Li Hu captured Xijing, the situation in the entire Liaodong suddenly changed.

For the Khitans, the country was already facing defeat and could only fight back.

For the Jurchens, another powerful opponent rose up in Liaodong, and this opponent directly threatened their survival. They had to do their best to eliminate or weaken this threat.

For the people of the Song Dynasty, the decline of the Liao Kingdom was good news, and the rise of the Han Er Li Hu was bad news. Due to various reasons, the Song army has not launched a northern expedition so far. If the Han Er Li Hu rushed to capture Yan Yun in front of the Song army, what would happen in the future can be imagined. The powerful Li Hu would never be willing to be a vassal state, and the Song Dynasty would never regard the Sixteen Prefectures of Yan Yun as Li Hu's vassal state. The conflicts between the two sides were irreconcilable and there was no possibility of resolution at all. Then, war would be inevitable. The Song Dynasty did not want to repeat the same mistake, and did not want to have a second humiliating "Chanyuan Alliance", so they must try every means to attack and weaken Li Hu's strength, so as not to raise the tiger and cause trouble for themselves.

When they arrived in Xijing, Li Hu and the rebel army welcomed their fourth opponent, that is, the Xixia people. The Xixia people kept staring at the east bank of the Yellow River. The plump grassland and the wealthy Daibei were their long-coveted prey. They finally encountered such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, how could they miss it?

When the rebel army seized all time to consolidate Xijing and its surrounding areas, the opponents were also seized all time to formulate and implement countermeasures.

Judging from the interests and needs of the above forces, next year, the rebels may usher in the most difficult year.

The map is laid on the table table, and the most conspicuous part is Yanjing, which was marked by Li Hu with a cinnabar pen.

"It's October," said Li Hu. "It's going to be cold soon. In the next four months, the weather will be cold and it's not suitable for large troops to fight. However, no one will stay in the house to burn the fire. Everyone is trying to find ways to get the best interests of themselves. In four months, Liaodong will undergo earth-shaking changes. Which of these changes are good for us? What are bad for us?"

Everyone was concentrating and contemplating.
