In Feng'an in the northwest, a large number of people slowly approached the unfinished earth wall of the fortress. Many people led their horses and walked slowly. The horses gnawed the seed-bearing autumn grass on the ground as they walked. Li Yiyin looked at the vast grassland to the east, looking tired and excited. It was not easy to obtain the support of the Dangxiang tribes and some tribes of the Tubo Uighurs. The people who had just gathered now had spent a lot of effort and travel. "The odds of winning this time are very high, and we will definitely succeed!" Li Yiyin said to his generals, "Emperor Xu is in danger of being poisoned, and the prince is only a few years old. I heard that there are many people in the country who are rebelling and revolting, and they have no time to look west. We are taking advantage of the situation to recover. The time of the country." All the generals nodded in agreement. Not long ago, Xu's army suddenly withdrew, and they saw Liao envoys, all of which confirmed that Xu was in civil strife. "Recovering Helan Mountain will echo the Liao Kingdom in the north. At that time, we can borrow the Liao army for assistance. If we retreat, we can deal with the Xu army. If we advance, we can recover Hengshan and regain our strength!" Li Yiyin then ordered all ministries to rush to the northeast. Fang marched. Along the way, we saw deserted grassland and oases, no human habitation, and no military activities. A few days later, the coalition forces approached the Lingzhou Plain along the Yellow River. The majestic natural scenery made Li Yiyin excited. Unexpectedly, at this moment, there was a sudden "bang" explosion. Li Yiyin and others followed the sound and looked up one after another. A fire flew towards the sky, and another "bang" exploded, sparks flying. ¡°Not good!¡± Li Yiyin exclaimed. As soon as he finished speaking, sure enough, on the undulating mountain top on the north side, vague figures of people and horses appeared, and then green, red and multicolored flags also appeared in sight. In the woods on the north bank of the Yellow River on the right, the noise of people and horses and the sound of horse hooves also sounded. The coalition forces immediately stopped, and there was a commotion everywhere. Some people shouted in Dangxiang dialect: "No, we are in ambush!" Others shouted in Tubo and Uighur dialects, but Li Yiyin did not understand what they were shouting. He turned around and said loudly: "Send the order to the left and right wings to prepare for battle and face the enemy! Anyone who disturbs the morale of the army will be killed!" The envoys from various ministries who stayed in the central army followed the instructions and sent people to rush out to deliver the order. The horns and drums also sounded, and the large crowd of people seemed to explode. On the northern hillside, the cavalry was rushing down. At a glance, it seemed that the mountains and fields were filled with people and horses! The elite cavalry of Xu Jun's vanguard are brightly armored, shining in the sun, and they look like steel is rushing. The formation is very terrifying! At this moment, Li Yiyin suddenly discovered that the troops behind the coalition forces in the west were turning around and running. He widened his eyes and shouted: "Send someone quickly to stop those people from escaping! Xu Jun only has Feng Jiye's border cavalry, so there are not many troops, so don't be afraid!" Someone said: "There are Uighurs behind, how can we do that? Do you want to listen to us?" There was an envoy from the Uighur tribe in the Chinese army, and he complained loudly: "Li Gong said that the country was in chaos and was vulnerable to attack. How could he fall into an ambush as soon as he came?" Li Yiyin was furious, his face was ferocious, and his roaring voice was hoarse: "Damn it, if others are in civil strife, they will be able to fight without bloodshed, right? We are here to fight, fight!" The formation of Xu's army on the hillside to the north is huge, but only two or three thousand cavalry can be seen! Li Yiyin simply couldn't imagine that ten times the enemy's men and horses could be frightened and fled by two or three thousand cavalry? The troops on the rear wing galloped on horseback. This situation immediately spread to the entire army like a plague, and even the men and horses of the Party Department began to run away. "Mr. Li, let's go!" the general advised, "We can't fight with this condition. We will leave the green hills without worrying about having no firewood" Li Yi Yin sat on his horse, raised his head and sighed, holding out his chest. Facing the cavalry approaching fiercely from the north. There was a huge feeling of despair and anger, like a whirlpool; he seemed to feel that he was being sucked into it, falling towards the abyss. "Li Gong" "Get out!" Li Yiyin suddenly became furious, pulled out his sword and shouted, "We can definitely win, this is a must-win battle!" "Rumble, rumble" Galloping horse hooves Amidst the sound, Xu Jun's cavalry came straight towards them. Countless coalition troops and horses all ran to the west. There were so many people and horses in the wilderness in the distance, like a torrent. Li Yiyin was the only one left where the coalition troops originally stood, holding a military flag in his left hand and an iron sword in his right hand. Li Yiyin lowered his head. On both sides of his helmet, his gray hair was messy in the wind. He slowly raised his head, his red eyes full of bloodshot eyes, gritted his teeth, raised his iron sword high, and shouted: "Kill!" He rode straight towards the front of Xu Jun's iron cavalry. "Pa!" Xu Jun's cavalry group only shot one arrow, and Li Yiyin felt that his seats were empty, and the horses neighed and fell to their knees. He yelled and rolled off the horse, causing stars to fly in front of his eyes. Li Yiyin supported his body with his hands, picked up the whispered weapon, slowly got up, and limped a few steps.I saw vigorous cavalry rushing past him on both sides, but no one paid him any attention. "Ah!" Li Yiyin yelled and rode forward. The one-handed sword was too short, and before it could reach the cavalry on horseback, the man rode past and shouted, "Oh, that's so awesome!" "Hahaha" There was a burst of laughter from all around. Li Yiyin blushed, turned around and slashed at another target, but was still easily dodged by the fast-moving cavalry. The emotions of sadness, anger and excitement were all gone, like a hard punch hitting cotton. Li Yiyin gradually calmed down a little. He stood in the middle of the crowd and threw away the military flag. He glanced at the iron sword in his hand and slowly raised it "Bang!" Suddenly there was a string sound, and Li Yiyin screamed in pain, and the sword in his hand clanged. Dropped to the ground. A big man on horseback pointed with his bow and said: "He is Li Yiyin, the leader of the party. He can kill anyone, but he cannot be killed. I will capture the ones alive and go back to claim their merits. Maybe I will get a hereditary and irreplaceable marquis!"?¡ A few days later, Tokyo received an urgent report from the northwest: Feng Jiye led 3,000 cavalry, defeated the 30,000 cavalry of the party's Tubo natives and other coalition forces (the number cannot be verified), captured the leader Li Yiyin alive, and escorted Tokyo to present prisoners. When Guo Shao heard the news, he was overjoyed and did nothing. The border troops solved the border troubles, which was really trouble-free. He said, "Feng Jiye can not only herd sheep, but also fight." However, the prisoners are still on the way, but they are not as fast as the military reports that have been expedited for hundreds of miles, so they can only wait patiently. This matter made Guo Shao attach great importance to it, not the battle itself, but the general relationship. No matter what, Guo Shao will definitely not let the Helan Mountain and Pingxia areas escape Da Xu's control because the relationship will wax and wane. To deal with the Liao Kingdom, now is not the time for a decisive battle. If the Liao Kingdom was to be attacked by force, a large number of cavalry would be needed, and Dashu obviously did not have enough cavalry. But before the counterattack, the most reliable way is to continuously weaken the resources available to the Liao Kingdom and increase the source of its own war horses. Guo Shao suppressed his provoked emotions and calmed down, feeling a little tired. The strange poison of the Liao people is slow to poison and go away slowly. It has been almost two months since Guo Shao got better and he is still not doing well. He left Jinxiang Palace early and ordered the eunuchs to carry him to Madam Lu, hoping to meet his benefactor. As soon as a group of people carried the sedan into Xuanyou Gate not far away, they saw the virtuous concubine Li Yueji kneeling on the roadside far away. The eunuch Wang Zhong turned to see Guo Shao's attitude, but Guo Shao remained calm, so everyone carried the sedan forward without saying a word. "Stop." Guo Shao said softly. Li Yueji worshiped: "Your Majesty! I knew that my father had raised an army to be your enemy and committed the unforgivable crime of treason But I dare not abandon my father's gift of childbirth. I ask your Majesty to be magnanimous" Guo Shao thought to himself: Who? Tell you that I am going to kill Li Yiyin? Li Yiyin resisted with military force, which was regarded as treason in the general sense, but it was completely different from treason by domestic ministers. A few years ago, Pingxia Province was the territory of Party members, but now most of the population is also Party members. Guo Shao would not think that stationing a few thousand guardsmen on the territory would be enough to get the land. He kept deporting Han criminals to that area, and also provided seeds and grain to farmers. Why did he go to so much trouble? Now that Li Yueji is married to the Daxu royal family, it is naturally a favorable factor for the close relationship between the two clans. Guo Shao can't think of a reason to abandon this relationship! "If you kill Li Yueji's biological father, isn't this marriage asking for trouble?" The key is that after Li Yiyin was arrested, there was no harm to Guo Shao. Guo Shao thought for a while and said, "I'm in a bit of a dilemma. Concubine Li Xian should get up first." "Your Majesty" Li Yueji looked at the big man behind the curtain with watery eyes. The eunuch Wang Zhong said: "The good concubine cannot force the official family." "I obey the order." Li Yueji stood up. "Alas" Guo Shao sighed, waved his sleeves, and the eunuchs lifted up the sedan again. What he lamented was that he was actually pretending to be embarrassed in front of Li Yueji. But sometimes it is really helpless. Only in this way can we reduce the hatred around us. After being poisoned, Guo Shao became less and less arrogant. A little palace maid almost took her own life Guo Shao recalled that Zhao Sanlang from the past, a powerful man with the destiny of the emperor, actually died at the hands of Dong Er, a common man; Li Yun, who dared to rebel, also died at the hands of a famous person around him. Killed by a little-known pawn! Guo Shao thought that he should act gentle and tolerant to the little people he could come into contact with. Otherwise, within ten steps, the First Emperor would be no match for Jing Ke and would be chased all over the house! Entering the courtyard where Mrs. Lu lives, a group of women were waiting at the door, saluting respectfully, and a burst of "Longevity without Borders" was heard. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Guo Shao??: "Pingsheng." The eunuch Wang Zhong and another young eunuch helped him down from the seat. Wang Zhong said softly: "Your Majesty is kind and tolerant to others, but there are always people who don't know what is good and what is bad. It is really chilling." He said casually: "It is precisely because of my accumulated virtues that in times of crisis, there are still many loyal ministers who do not care about gains and losses and loyally plan for the country." After hearing this, Mrs. Lu couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty is really a benevolent king." Guo Shao remembered that not long ago In front of me, there was a thick stack of roster files signed by myself, without comment.
