Chapter 22 Eternal Sorrow Song

Conversion.

Wu Ji was wearing casual clothes and was saying goodbye to Yang Xiuxiu, Huangfu Song, Zheng Tai and others.

"Wu Lang, be careful on the road." Yang Xiuxiu has rarely parted with Wu Ji since she married into the Wu family. Although Wu Ji went to Xiongzhou this time to hire a blacksmith, it took him a few days to take him off, but for her, it was the longest time that the two of them parted. The beautiful eyes were filled with tears, and they were extremely reluctant to leave.

"Xiuxiu, don't worry, I won't be in trouble." Wu Ji smiled and reached out to wipe Yang Xiuxiu's tears dry: "I'm fool, it's not that I'm not coming back."

"Sister-in-law, don't worry. With Xingzi and I here, nothing will happen." Wu Xing smiled and stepped forward, patted his chest: "Sister-in-law, you don't know, we have the sword to kill the enemy!"

The Killing of the Lu Sword is very sharp and very useful. Wu Ji first equipped his own personal soldiers. Wu Xing and others have one hand. Wu Xing and others love each other very much about the Killing of the Lu Sword.

"Yeah!" Yang Xiuxiu nodded slightly.

"Mr. Huangfu, Lord Zheng, I'm leaving now." Wu Ji clasped his fists and saluted Zheng Tai and Huangfu Song.

"Commander Wu, go early and come back soon!" Huangfu Song became more and more impressed by Wu Ji.

Wu Ji was not only abacus and trained troops, but also a rare skilled craftsman. Needless to say, his character was a person. Compared with the existing generals of the Song Dynasty, Wu Ji was completely a sage.

"Commander Wu, Xiongzhou is the place where the annual monies are handed over. The Khitans set up a tribute hall here, which specifically accepts monies." Zheng Tai said the three words tribute hall, and his tone was a bit high and he looked hateful.

The word "Na" lost all the face of the Song Dynasty. The Khitans also set up a tribute hall in Xiongzhou. Who can tolerate it if they want to disgust the Song Dynasty?

"There are many Khitans in Xiongzhou who bully others with their power. If you meet them, don't be polite. A hard lesson is!" Zheng Tai reminded Wu Ji: "The Khitans are very arrogant, and they may meet them."

"If you encounter it, you will definitely not be polite!" Wu Ji came to the Song Dynasty for so long and heard a lot of things about the Khitans. He was also angry with the Khitans. If he was given a chance, he would definitely not be ruthless.

Saying goodbye to everyone, Wu Ji jumped onto the carriage, Wu Xing jumped onto the shaft, drove the carriage to Xiongzhou.

Behind the carriage Wu Ji was riding, there were several carriages for personal soldiers to ride. Another carriage was loaded with swords, bows and arrows, and thunderbolts. Going to Xiongzhou and selling arms by the way is also an important task for Wu Ji.

Youzhou is the capital of the Republic, Beijing. During the Song and Liao dynasties, it was the most important city of the Khitan in the south. First, its strategic position is very important. If you control Youzhou, you have the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, and the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, and you have the springboard to attack the Central Plains. The Liao army can set out from here to launch an attack on the Central Plains.

The Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun are the North China Plain centered on Beijing. Its economic strength is quite strong, the economy and trade are quite developed here, and there are also a large number of Han people, called Han by the Khitans. This is the second one.

It is precisely because Youzhou has extremely important strategic and economic value that the Khitan attaches great importance to Youzhou. As Nanjing of the Liao Kingdom, the Marshal's Mansion is located here.

The Marshal's Mansion is a huge courtyard in Youzhou City, with hundreds of houses, guarded by elite soldiers, and is heavily guarded. There are many Liao officials coming and going.

The current Marshal of Du is Xiao Lu. He is a burly man with seven feet long and burly figure, with eyes like a copper bell, a wide mouth and a huge mouth, as if he was swallowing people and devouring bones.

At this time, Xiao Lu was standing in front of a giant military map, with bright eyes not drifting on the map, frowning at the same time, sometimes thinking.

Behind him were five or six trusted generals, standing like wooden stakes, and no one spoke.

After a long time, Xiao Lu turned around, his eyes flashed, and he swept his head on the generals and asked, "Do you know why Yelu Ming tells me?"

To bother the Song Dynasty and get benefits was the wish of the Khitans. It was not necessary to say that they had the chance to do it. Yelu Ming could send troops directly without asking for his orders to Xiao Lu. This was really a big question, and the generals couldn't help but frown.

"Marcedes Du, I can't understand. Please make clear." A general asked.

"Wu Xiruo, you are a good player in war. There are few opponents among the ten thousand troops of Tengchong. But there are some things that need to be thought about." Xiao Lu looked at the general and admired them very much: "The reason why Yelu Ming reported to me was because his heart was very wild, and he wanted to do a big thing."

"Ah!" the generals were a little surprised and asked hurriedly: "How big can it be?"

"If possible, he wants to take Xiongzhou down!" A glimmer of light flashed in Xiao Lu's eyes.

"Xiongzhou? Oh my God, he wants to take Xiongzhou?"

"Xiongzhou City is tall and thick, it is not so easy to take down!"

The generals were both surprised and a little yearning.

Xiongzhou was the most important city on the border between the Song and Liao dynasties. It was precisely because of the existence of Xiongzhou that the Khitans blocked the attack. If Xiongzhou could be taken down, the road to the south would be completely opened, and the Khitan cavalry would traverse across the Central Plains.

"Is Xiongzhou very big?" Xiao Lu's eyes shining: "You don't know the emperor's ambitions. What the emperor wants is not just Xiongzhou or just annual monies, but the entire Central Plains and the entire Song realm!"

"Haha!" When the generals heard this, they were very happy and excited: "Your Majesty wants to regain the glory of Emperor Taizong?"

“That’s right!”

Xiao Lu pointed out and said, "You all know how the Great Liao was established and where Emperor Taizong ascended the throne, that is, in the capital of Emperor Song, Bianjing! However, since Emperor Taizong, the Great Liao has never re-emerged troops to Bianjing. This is the incompetence of the Khitan men! The emperor's great talent has been planning the great achievements of Emperor Taizong since the day of ascending the throne, and re-emerged troops to Bianjing!"

What he said was a tragic song of eternal success.

The official founding of the Khitan country was not Yelu Abaoji, the Emperor Taizu of Liao, but Yelu Deguang of Liao. Yelu Deguang was the second son of Yelu Abaoji. Because of his bravery and stubbornness, he was highly praised by Yelu Abaoji, and finally inherited the status of Yelu Abaoji.

Yelu Abaoji always had a dream, which was to occupy the Central Plains land north of the Yellow River and the troops were approaching the Central Plains. At that time, the Khitans could not fight in because the Crow Army in the Later Tang Dynasty was very powerful, and even the Khitans could not take advantage.

The Khitans' dreams come true was Shi Jingtang, a traitor. He ceded the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun to the Khitans. After obtaining the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, the Khitans' strategic springboard took a big step forward and directly approached the Central Plains.

Emperor Taizong of Liao was still dissatisfied. He led his army south under the banner of Shi Jingtang's ungrateful descendants. Du Chongwei surrendered to Liao, and the 200,000 Later Jin troops that resisted Liao Kingdom collapsed instantly. The Liao army was as if they had entered an unmanned territory and went straight to Bianjing and destroyed the Later Jin.

Emperor Taizong of Liao sat on the throne of Shi Chonggui, accepted the congratulations from the emperor and ministers of the Later Jin Dynasty, became emperor, changed the country's name to Daliao, and established the Liao Kingdom.

When the Liao army entered the Central Plains, it was a catastrophe. The population captured by the Liao army was countless. The Central Plains were destroyed since then, nine out of ten houses were empty, and there was no strength to fight against the Khitans. It was not until Zhou Shizong became emperor and under his rule that the Central Plains gradually regained their vitality.

This time, the Liao army came to the Central Plains, and the influence was very bad. It was the first time that foreign races entered the Central Plains after the Five Barbarians invaded China. It was also a prelude to the Jurchens and Mongolians invasion of the Central Plains.

Since then, the Emperor of Liao has been having a dream, that is, like Emperor Taizong of Liao, he once again came to the Central Plains. For this reason, Liao fought against the Song Dynasty for hundreds of years, but failed.

"good!"

"This time, the Liao army is coming to the Central Plains and will not retreat again!"

When the generals heard this, they were very happy and excited. According to their ancestors, Emperor Taizong of Liao entered the Central Plains and plundered countless exorcises, and the Khitan gained countless wealth.

At that time, the Central Plains had internal turmoil and the Five Dynasties changed, and their strength had declined greatly and their wealth was inferior. Now, after more than a hundred years of rest and recuperation, the Central Plains had a richness far exceeding the Five Dynasties. If the Liao Kingdom came to the Central Plains again, the wealth that the Liao Kingdom had obtained would be unimaginable.

All the generals were thinking of a bright future, and stars appeared in their eyes.
