Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Yelujun was excited. Song Emperor Zhao Zhao was in Qingzhou, but he only had 8,000 guards around him.  Are talented people bold?  I heard that Zhao Zhao had a very elite troop called the "Da Song Blade".  However, the number was only a few thousand, and they could not play a decisive role in the face of the equally powerful Liao cavalry.  Zhao Zhao sent all his people out to launch a full-scale attack on the border. What was the purpose?  Yelujun looked at the map for a long time and heard that Zhao Zhao had made something called a sand table. It could be said that mountains, rivers, cities and cities were listed on it, which was very intuitive.  The Liao Kingdom has been imitating it, but so far, no qualified finished product has been produced. Yelujun can only look at the map.  However, after careful deliberation, Yelujun still discovered its core intention-Zhuozhou!  This is also sad. Zhao Zhao, the hometown of the Zhao royal family in the Song Dynasty, also publicly stated that he wanted to take back this place, which makes sense.  In a hurry, Yelu Jun seemed to have forgotten what was the greatest wish of the people of the Song Dynasty for hundreds of years.  His eyes were completely attracted by Zhao Zheng. There were only eight thousand people left by the emperor of a country.  Do you think it¡¯s safe to visit in Cheongju?  You have underestimated the power of my elite Khitan cavalry!  Yelu Jun immediately mobilized troops and horses, and gathered the most elite cavalry from the Liao Kingdom, including the Pishi Army and the Fifth and Sixth Academy, to form an elite force.  At the same time, the Liao State's military strength on the border began to shrink. Seeing such an opportunity, the Song Army immediately moved forward.  However, no one dared to underestimate the enemy and advance rashly. They cooperated with each other and fought steadily, pushing the de facto border between Song and Liao forward for dozens of miles.  Especially Yizhou has been exposed to the Song army.  This made the soldiers of the Song Dynasty a little excited. The Song Dynasty lost a Waqiao Pass, but in comparison, Yizhou was more valuable.  If it can be taken back, the situation will definitely change.  More and more troops are gathering near Yizhou. Although the Khitan army holds on, they seem to have insufficient strength and are struggling to hold on.  But the Khitan reinforcements have not yet arrived.  On the contrary, there are more and more follow-up troops of the Song Army, and the situation is extremely critical!  Of course there will be no reinforcements. After receiving the military report from Yizhou asking for reinforcements, Yelu Jun tore it into pieces on the spot.  Yizhou may be a key city, but it is no longer important now.  Why is the gain or loss of a city more important than the outcome of a battle?  It¡¯s early September.  Autumn fog begins to cover the plain south of Yanshan Mountain.  It was on such a night that 30,000 elite Liao cavalry set out, and their goal was Qingzhou.  At the same time, at least 100,000 troops were making follow-up preparations to march south along the direction of Waqiao Pass.  The fog became an excellent cover, greatly reducing the range of activities and reconnaissance effect of the Song Army's detective horses.  Initially, no movements of the Liao cavalry were detected at all.  It wasn¡¯t until they broke through Waqiao Pass and passed the defense line outside Xiongzhou that Tan Ma noticed it.  It's just that the size and movement of the Khitan army are still unclear. What's even worse is that there is a problem with the message transmission.  Fireworks communication will definitely not work. It is quite troublesome to rush back in time to report the news in the thick fog.  What¡¯s worse is that the Song Dynasty¡¯s scouts misjudged the direction.  They thought that the Khitans were heading south to Mozhou.  But when the Mozhou garrison received the news, they discovered that the Khitan army had disappeared again.  The general stationed in Mo was called He Mingxiang, a general under Wu Chong, but in fact, when Wen Yanbo took control of Hebei Road, he had already worshiped Wen Xianggong.  Since the fall of Waqiao Pass, Mozhou has been under a lot of pressure. He Mingxiang has been doing his best and being very careful.  The fall of Xiongzhou was a big blow to morale, especially for the official family, which was really embarrassing.  As the actual direct descendant of the official family.  He Mingxiang worked extremely hard and kept Mozhou tightly guarded, leaving no chance for the Khitans.  After receiving the summons today, he was also ready to prepare, but the Liao cavalry suddenly disappeared.  Where to go?  Did you go around Mozhou and Dayingzhou?  At the time of suspicion.  He Mingxiang received the news that the Khitan army suddenly changed its direction to the east, and there was no trace of it in the heavy fog. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? .  Qingzhou, that is the direction of Qingzhou, where the official family is.  If something goes wrong, the sky of the Song Dynasty will collapse!  ¡­ ¡­ ¡­ ¡­ Yelu Jun galloped on his horse, the mist had wet his hair, and even the skirt of his clothes was starting to get a little damp. Even if he was in a hurry and all the bones in his body were about to fall apart, he didn¡¯tWife's complaints.  On the contrary, it is excitement, unprecedented excitement.  "Half of their plan to raid Qingzhou has been completed."  It was a God-given opportunity. The heavy fog gave them shelter, making the action more secretive. They were already very close to Qingzhou, and Zhao Zhao was there.  Yelujun should not personally participate in late-night sneak attacks on enemy countries and fight deep inside the country, nor should he be implicated in such matters.  But no matter how his ministers persuaded him, Yelu Jun refused to listen and must lead his army south personally.  Because of Zhao Zhao, they can fight head-on under Qingzhou City.  What's even more rare is that you can have the opportunity to defeat him, ravage him, take crazy revenge, and make him kneel in front of you and beg for mercy.  This is what Yelujun dreams of, how can he give up so easily?  Especially during such a fragile psychological period.  Ever since, a strange scene occurred.  An emperor went on a personal expedition, leading an elite force deep into the enemy's territory, risking his life alone, for the sake of another emperor.  Although some ministers emphasized that doing so was dangerous, Yelujun didn't care.  From the perspective of facts and plans, there was no danger at all, and he did not want to give up an opportunity to confront Zhao Zhao head-on.  An opportunity to completely trample him under his feet, completely vent his anger and humiliate him.  In fact, he has another plan in his heart. If this thing succeeds, what will it mean?  The Lord of Liao personally captured the Song Emperor, and he will also write a special note in the history books in the future.  He Yelu Jun will surpass his ancestors, father, and even Emperor Shengzong. The period of Yelu Longxu's reign is unintentionally the most powerful period of the Liao Kingdom.  Emperor Shengzong has also become a monument in the history of the Liao Kingdom. Yelu Jun has always been pretentious and has a huge ambition in his heart, which is to surpass Emperor Shengzong.  This is the reason why he is so interested and persistent in drinking horses from the Yellow River.  At that time, the Empress Dowager Chengtian and Emperor Shengzong were blocked in Chanzhou and failed to cross the river.  "As for myself, as long as I can lead the Khitan army across the Yellow River, I can erect a new monument.  Yelu Longxu is the imperial commander, so he must do the same. This is the price that must be paid for transcendence!  Now, with such an excellent opportunity before him, how could Yelujun give up so easily?
