The Liao man who came over was naturally Xiao Ke. He was not surprised to hear what Gao Jide said. Yelu Zhongyuan, who had already surrendered, had already explained everything clearly. He only wanted to confirm with Gao Jide.
"The Song Dynasty is seeking its own destruction. One of the Queen's arms is missing. The Song Dynasty will pay an unbearable price. In the shortest possible time, millions of Liao cavalry will crush the Song Dynasty. When our army reaches Kaifeng City,
I will naturally question Zhao Zhen."
Gao Jide said with difficulty: "You can talk big even if your tongue flashes. Without complete preparations, do you think we will do this? The Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun is the territory of the Song Dynasty. We must take it back."
Xiao Ke squatted down and looked at Gao Jide, who was facing up and nailed to the ice with an iron spear, and said: "You will see the day when the Daliao Iron Cavalry approaches Kaifeng. I just don't understand why the Emperor Zhao Zhen of the Song Dynasty did this.
Liao and Song have been at peace for more than fifty years, can't they continue to be in harmony? Everyone should understand that as long as Song and Liao go to war, life will be ruined. Why don't the people of Song understand this?
It’s all Song’s fault that it’s gotten to the point where it’s getting out of hand now.”
Gao Jide smiled and said nothing, closed his eyes and waited for death. After waiting for a long time, no sword or ax was added. The iron spears inserted into his limbs were taken away one by one. There were still people binding his wounds. Gao Jide sighed and fainted.
In the past, he knew that the people of Liao felt that his broken body still had some value.
Yelu Hongji stayed by Xiao Guanyin's side and gently wiped away the thick beads of sweat on her forehead with a handkerchief. He looked at Xiao Guanyin's pale cheeks and clenched his fists loudly.
"That's too much!" Yelu Hongji roared out four words in a low voice from his throat.
"Your Majesty, you won't raise an army if you are angry!"
Xiao Guanyin opened her bloodless lips and spoke to Yelu Hongji in a low voice.
Yelu Hongji took a long breath and closed his eyes. His eyelids trembled rapidly. He adjusted his breathing and said casually: "We have been silent for too long. The soldiers and horses of Daliao seem to have forgotten how to fight. There are only more than 10,000 people."
He could force the Pishi Army into such a panic, not to mention that the people who attacked the Pishi Army were not the most elite troops in the Song Dynasty.
Even so, the number of casualties suffered by the Pishi Army in this raid reached an astonishing number of more than 18,000 people, although a large part of them trampled on each other to death. What does this mean? It means that the Daliao army is simply powerless.
In terms of war, since the late emperor took over the Liao Kingdom, we have never won a victory on the battlefield. The Chanyuan Alliance was the node in the decline of the Liao Kingdom.
My father fought against Xixia for my aunt, but we were defeated in the same battle. More than 60,000 people died on the battlefield. If Li Yuanhao was not afraid of the Liao Dynasty and mobilized an overwhelming number of troops to fight, even my father would have been in danger of being captured.
Since I came to the throne, I thought that as long as I persisted in the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter, even if I traveled long distances, I could build a strong army for Daliao. Now it seems that an army that has not experienced war is still incompetent in the final analysis.
Hit.
The Xixia people have been waging wars continuously over the years, so they have an extremely powerful army. The Song Dynasty has also been constantly conquering the north and south over the years, so their combat power has also been greatly improved, because they have a powerful army.
With the army as the backing, the cowardly Zhao Zhen would have the courage to attack me.
Queen, do you know that I felt frightened when I saw Keribao rushing toward my car like a wild beast! Although there were countless soldiers in front of me, at that moment, I couldn't feel the slightest bit of fear.
sense of security.
I have always thought that the biggest mistake that Zhao Zhen made this time because he did not succeed in assassinating me was that he did not invest enough. If he had sent Yun Zheng or an invincible general like Di Qing, he might have succeeded!
I can see very clearly from the high platform that the full strength of the Song Army has not been exerted, and the Jurchens seem not to be controlled by the Song Army. Even the cooperation between them and Yelu Chongyuan is problematic. If there can be someone among them.
A wiser commander, I would probably have perished in the ancestral land of Duck River."
Yelu Hongji saw Xiao Guanyin struggling to sit up, held her down gently and said: "I have not lost confidence, nor have I been blinded by anger. I just feel sad that the Northern Kingdom has become a state in my hands."
The fat in the eyes of others has been reduced to the point where anyone can take a bite. I think back when the Holy Queen was still there, did the Song Dynasty dare to look north...
The whole goose banquet must go on as usual. This is the last face of the Liao Kingdom. Those wandering Song troops and Jurchens must be wiped out. This is also the last bottom line of the Liao Kingdom. At the Duck River, all the envoys of the vassal country witnessed the Liao Kingdom with their own eyes.
They also discovered the fact that Liao's foreign powers were responsible for the tragic situation. They will definitely feel disrespectful after returning...
Since Wang Hua of the Liao Kingdom cannot convince them, let fear fill their hearts. All the envoys will be killed, and then tell their country and people that they died in the hands of the Song people...
As for the war, it must be fought, no matter whether it can be won or not, it must be fought. If the strongest soldiers cannot be trained from the war, the Liao Kingdom will not be far from destruction.
People without long-term worries must have short-term worries. People in the Song Dynasty always said that barbarians have no destiny for a hundred years. I used to think it was nonsense. Our Liao heritage has passed a hundred years ago. As a result, this battle has made me see it clearly.
It alleviated the weakness of the Liao Kingdom.
Our nobles have become corrupted. Their buttocks are so fat that they cannot fit into the saddle. Their arms can no longer draw their bows or raise their sabers. They can only hug those delicate women. The galloping horses are no longer
The heroic knight has turned into a dwarf at the horse race, so we must start a war, it is time to fight anyway.
Only through war can those with evil intentions temporarily forget about the struggle for power. Only through war can the forty-seven armies of the north and south of the Liao Kingdom be eliminated while the weak are retained.
There are a lot of soldiers and vassal troops, but in terms of combat power, I am not optimistic about them."
Xiao Guanyin said weakly: "Your Majesty, it won't be this bad. You need to worry too much."
Yelu Hongji shook his head and said: "I have thought too well, but the truth may be crueler than what I said! You can sleep a little longer, losing an arm is nothing. From today on, I will probably not be in the mood to be blessed by a beautiful woman."
Now, it is also a good thing for me and the Liao Kingdom that you have become like this, because as long as I see your broken arm, I will think of how weak the Liao Kingdom is now... Queen, as long as I live, you will always be the Liao Kingdom.
The queen, the most noble woman in the Liao Kingdom..."
Yelu Hongji waited until Xiao Guanyin fell asleep before he got up and left the tent. He ordered the palace servants to put on iron armor for him. From this moment on, he would no longer wear other clothes. From today on, the Liao Kingdom will enter a war rhythm.
Until the day victory comes.
As soon as the emperor left, Xiao Guanyin opened his eyes. A maid in green came to the bed. Xiao Guanyin whispered: "Go and tell the ancestors that the Xiao family begins to prepare for war. The best children of the Xiao family have begun to enter the army. Tell
They fight seriously and don't use the army as a tool to make money, otherwise they will die!"
The killings on the Duck River did not stop after the Song Dynasty, the Jurchens, and the King of Qin's people were all dead. Instead, they became more and more violent. The bodyguards, horsemen, infantry, and infantry all commanded the envoy Si, and the bodyguards controlled cranes, soldiers, and horses, all commanded the envoy Si.
The people in the two yamen were undergoing an unprecedented cleansing. The blood stains on the puddles of the Duck River had never dried up. As soon as the old blood stains froze into ice, new blood stains were covered again.
The tribal army of the Jurchen leader was given special attention. The number of heads beheaded by General Ghost Slave even exceeded the number of Liao people killed by the Song army in Yahe River.
None of the tribal elders who participated in the Quan Goose Banquet escaped this huge disaster.
The vast white mountains and black waters are full of troops chasing Jurchens and Song people in the snow. They no longer distinguish who is a merchant, who is an obedient citizen, and who is a bandit. As soon as they see them, they will kill them all.
As a result, the Xi people in Liaodong, the Beihai people, the powerful Shiwei people, and the Jurchens in the East China Sea all suffered. General Gui Slave, who had lost his mind, no longer had the patience to distinguish between races. In his eyes, all lands in the East China Sea
All are rioters.
Gao Yue was running through the mountains and forests in ragged clothes. The thick snow under his feet hindered his speed. In just thirty miles, he encountered Liao people six times.
By the time he escaped into Xiaoheishan, the number of his attendants, numbering from 100 to 30, had been reduced to three. Even so, Xiaoheishan was not safe, because the Liao people were killing people wantonly, and countless Jurchens and Xi people were killing them.
The Shiwei people all fled the plains and had to live in dense woods and live like savages.
After killing the latest wave of people who wanted to rob his food, Gao Yue finally fell ill...
The noble young master who used to be well-dressed and well-fed has been wandering between life and death these days, eating the coarsest food, wearing only smelly animal skins, and facing the harshest natural environment on earth. He finally persisted.
Can't stand it any longer.
When Gao Yue woke up from a coma, he found that he was alone under the big pine tree. These days, his understanding of human nature has been much deeper than when he was in Tokyo. Although he felt scared, he was not surprised.
No matter how many promises he made to them at that time, those generals still chose to protect his own life between life and death. They took away the small amount of food... and didn't even leave him a small knife.
It was not safe here. Gao Yue wiped his hot forehead with white snow, stood up against the pine tree, found the footprints left by the three generals, and headed deeper into the forest. (
