ps: (Thanks to our glorious charter friends for the tip! The second update is delivered today!)
While Yue Fei and his son and a group of generals were discussing how to attack the city all night in the big tent, Yelu Pusuwan was standing on the top of the city of Yanjing, looking at the continuous Han army camps several miles away, his pretty eyes dull. Looking at the ground.
"Songshan, do you think we will succeed?" Standing on a high slope, silently staring at the shining bonfire in the Han army camp opposite, Yelu Pusuwan suddenly asked, and there seemed to be a faint hint of emotion in her words. Revealing a little depression.
Yelu Songshan was surprised. He had never heard such words from Yelu Pusuwan. In his impression, the former princess and the current queen always seemed so calm no matter what kind of difficulties they encountered. , full of confidence.
But now, what happened to the Queen? Although the Liao army suffered heavy casualties in the battle of Yanshan before. However, there are still 100,000 elite Liao troops, and these days many young and middle-aged people who have volunteered to join the army have been recruited from the residents of Yanjing City. If they rely on the houses in the city for street fighting, they may not be able to force the Han army to retreat.
¡°Now that the entire Liao Dynasty¡¯s hopes were placed on the Queen, she felt a little depressed.
"Your Majesty, as long as you command us to fight, we will definitely succeed. Although the Han army is very powerful and Yue Yun is also a famous general in the world, with you here, we can overcome any difficulties." Yelu Songshan stabilized. He said after feeling down.
Yelvpu quickly opened his beautiful eyes, as clear as autumn water, looked up at the sky, and murmured: "Do you know what I want to do most right now? I want to see Yue Yun again"
Yelu Songshan was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and was about to speak. However, Yelu Pu quickly turned his attention to him and said in a deep voice: "Songshan. Help me send someone to send a message to Yue Yun. I want to meet with Yue Yun at midnight tonight on the Xiangshan Mountain outside the west city gate!"
"What?" Yelu Songshan said in shock: "Your Majesty, you must not do this. The Han people are extremely cunning and Yue Yun is highly skilled in martial arts. If we take advantage of this opportunity to do something disadvantageous to Your Majesty, our army will be in a situation of no return ¡¡±
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Yelu Pu: "I have decided that Yue Yun is not that kind of person. I trust him. If he is really so despicable, then he cannot change his mind from a mere Control. He created the current situation and became the emperor with the most extensive territory in history"
Yelu Songshan was immediately speechless. This is indeed the case. The history of Yue Yun's fortune can be called a legendary novel. And his Han country now includes all the territory of the original Northern Song Dynasty, half of Xixia, the entire Tubo, Dali, Champa, Annan, Chenla, Huluo, Srivijaya, East Java, Luzon and other southern lands, as well as There are territories such as Japan, Ryukyu, and Australia. It is said that Australia alone is larger than the entire Central Plains. Such great achievements were not even matched by Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty during the heyday of the Tang Dynasty.
Although Yue Yun is the enemy of Liao State. But the generals of the Liao Kingdom also admired him very much.
"Okay! I will obey the order!" Yelu Songshan was helpless. He also believed that Yue Yun would not assassinate Yelu Pu, so he had no choice but to agree to the matter.
When Yelvpu finished the letter and showed it to his generals through Yue Yun, everyone was surprised. I can't figure out what kind of medicine Yelu Pusu is selling in his gourd. Before the decisive battle between the two armies on an unprecedented scale, the coach of one side actually asked the coach of the other side to meet alone. This can be regarded as a rare scene in the history of wars throughout the ages.
??And not to mention that the two are not only coaches, but also emperors of their countries.
"Your Majesty, you can't go! The Queen of the Liao Kingdom doesn't know what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd. I heard that more than 150 years ago, the then powerful Empress Dowager Xiao of the Liao Kingdom also used the name of negotiation to induce Song Dynasty to Taizong went to meet with the emperor, but an ambush was hidden at the table. Fortunately, General Pan Mei recognized the treacherous plot and pretended to be Taizong as Yang Ye's son, so that the enemy's conspiracy was exposed. This Yelu Pu Suwan can be regarded as a descendant of Empress Dowager Xiao. Who knows if she has evil intentions. We can't let you take this risk!" Several generals immediately advised her.
Even Wei Sheng was a little confused and said, "Your Majesty, could it be that Yelu Pu quickly saw that the battle situation was unfavorable and wanted to trick your Majesty into going forward so that he could harm your Majesty!"
"I don't think we can go either." Chen Gang stood up and said: "Now that the decisive battle at Yanjing is approaching, the morale of our army is high. If your Majesty has a shortcoming, how will we deal with ourselves, and how will the Han soldiers respond?"
Yue Yun listened quietly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, but occasionally showed a smile at the corner of his mouth. After a while, when the generals' objections subsided a little, he turned his attention to Lu You.
Lu You knew what Yue Yun was thinking. He picked up the tea cup and took a sip, then said with a smile: "Lu thought that His Majesty's departure would be fine."What's the danger"
These words immediately caused an explosion in the big tent, and all the generals started talking about how they could put His Majesty in danger. Yue Yun waved his hand to silence them and signaled Lu You to continue speaking.
After clearing his throat, Lu Youfang said: "Although Yelu Pusuwan is very resourceful and good at using tricks to harm people, he should have no hidden intentions towards your majesty. Your majesty should know this best and there is absolutely nothing near Xiangshan. A place where heavy troops are hidden. The reason why Yelvpu Suwan chose this place was carefully considered. After all, her ministers were also worried about something happening to her"
After a pause, he continued: "In my humble opinion, the casualties of the Liao army are still higher than those of our army. If our army feels a lot of pressure, the pressure of the Liao army is even greater. Yelu Pu finished this quickly I am afraid that most of the time when I meet with Your Majesty, you want to make peace. Therefore, when Your Majesty goes, you only need to take General Yang Xing and a thousand soldiers with you to strengthen security near Xiangshan. I am willing to guarantee it with my life and property. Your Majesty will definitely be safe and sound!"
After hearing this, Yue Yun nodded slightly, and then asked Yue Fei: "Dad, what do you think?"
"In that case, Yun'er, you go ahead!" Yue Fei also stroked the long beard under his chin and said to him: "Yel¨¹ Pu quickly took this girl as a father's observation. She is not a sinister and vicious person. Maybe she is a little sinister. You are unruly and willful, but your heart is relatively pure. Moreover, the Queen of Liao has taken the initiative to invite you. If you don't go, wouldn't it seem that we are afraid of her? But to be on the safe side, in addition to Yang Xing leading five hundred soldiers to go with you, . My father also personally led 10,000 forbidden troops and stationed them five miles away from Xiangshan. If there is an emergency, I will be able to save you in time! After all, my father only has a son like you!"
"Okay!" Yue Yun laughed: "I will go and meet the Queen of Liao Kingdom to see what medicine she sells in her gourd."
Seeing that Yue Yun was speaking with great enthusiasm, the Han generals responded in unison, and then went out to prepare for the battle.
After they went out, Yue Yun found that there was a young general in the tent who had not left.
"Hey, Xin Qiji, why don't you go back to the camp?" Yue Yun asked strangely.
"Your Majesty, I wonder if I can go with you to see the Empress of Liao Kingdom? I heard that there seems to be something between you and her" Xin Qiji blushed and said in a squeaky voice.
Although he didn¡¯t finish his sentence, everyone could guess that it was either ¡°having an affair¡± or ¡°having an affair¡±.
Yue Yun couldn't help but laughed and said: "Little ghost head, who did you learn this from? You actually arranged my scandal! Even if Pu Suwan and I have an old relationship before, when the two armies are fighting, there is no room for women. As a human being, I will not disregard the interests of the country and the justice of the nation just because of her personal relationship!"
Xin Qiji blushed and said: "Your Majestyjuniorjunior, that's not what you meant. But I hope your majesty can take me with you when you meet the Queen of Liao!"
At this time, he said flatteringly: "Your Majesty is going to bring his own soldiers anyway, so how about I pretend to be one of your soldiers?"
Seeing his face flushed, Yue Yun thought to himself, could it be that this morning, Yelvpu's sudden and impressive appearance had fascinated this hairy young man? But looking at him, he doesn't seem to have a crush on the Queen of Liao
"Okay! Then you can go with me!" Yue Yun thought for a moment and decided to take Xin Qiji with him. After all, although he was young, he was very careful in observing what was happening and was able to put down Zhao Zhuo and Qin Hui when they wanted to seize power a few years ago. , it was only after he discovered something strange and notified his wives that he was able to make a prompt decision and crush their rebellion. This time, after meeting with Yelvpu Suwan, he made some observations and said that he was not sure about any ideas he had.
Xin Qiji was overjoyed when he heard this and hurriedly ran down to pretend to be a soldier.
This night, Xiangshan seemed very quiet, and the bright moon quietly rose into the sky. The night sky is like an endless transparent sea, quiet, vast, and mysterious. The dense stars are like small sparks in the sea water, twinkling and dancing with tiny points of light. Fields, mountains, rivers, and trees are covered with silver gauze in the quiet sleep.
At midnight, countless torches suddenly lit up from the north and south directions, and soldiers in large groups were walking towards here in neat steps. At the front of the team were two handsome men and women, Yue Yun and Yelu Pu Suwan.
When they were only one mile away from Xiangshan, they both waved back at the same time. The soldiers on both sides stopped, and Yue Yun and Yelvpu jumped down from their horses as if they had a clear understanding. Then slowly walked towards the other party.
Yue Yun was accompanied by Yang Xing and Xin Qiji, and Yelu Pusuwan was accompanied by Yelu Songshan and Jiang Wei.
Soon, the two of them were thereAfter standing several feet apart and looking at each other for a while, Yelvpu quickly raised his hand, pointed to a big tree next to him, and walked to the tree first. Yue Yun didn't hesitate and followed him.
Yang Xing, Xin Qiji, Yelu Songshan, and Jiang Wei were stationed at the four corners five feet away from the tree, looking at each other warily. This distance also allowed them to hear the conversation between the two emperors without being completely kept in the dark.
