Chapter 187: Capture Yelu Hongji alive(2/2)
Qin Hao sarcastically said: "So the Liao Kingdom is willing to donate annual coins to the Song Dynasty? Call the Song Dynasty brother from now on? And return the sixteen states of Yanyun?"
The messenger was shocked when he heard this: "This is impossible!"
Qin Hao sneered: "When the Liao Dynasty was strong and powerful, this was how it treated the Song Dynasty. Now it's just treating others in their own way. If you don't agree, we will continue to fight. There is nothing to talk about!
"
Zhao Yingce also slapped the table and shouted: "Yes, unless you agree to the above three conditions, I will break through Shunzhou City, capture Yelu Hongji alive, then recover the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun, and go straight to Linhuang Mansion in Shangjing
Destroy your Liao Kingdom!"

Gu Tingye was a little unwilling: "If Yelu Hongji really agrees to these three points, do we really have to let him go?"
Zhao Yingce smiled and shook his head: "Yelu Hongji will not agree. If he agrees, his throne will not be guaranteed."
In the final analysis, the Liao Kingdom was a dynasty established by nomadic peoples. It is their innate characteristic of nomads to worship the strong. Once Yelu Hongji signed such a treaty that was humiliating and humiliating the country, the ruling class of the Liao Kingdom would definitely re-elect other royal families to become the new
emperor.
Yelu Hongji was furious when he heard the news brought back by the envoy. He knew that the Song Dynasty had no "sincerity" in peace talks, so he called Yelu Zongbao over.
"You lead a group of Pishi troops to break out of the siege and call on all Liao troops to come for reinforcements. You must be quick! I am counting on you."
That night, Yelu Zongbao led thousands of Pishi troops to break through the Song army's encirclement.
Zhao Yingce looked at Yelu Zongbao's bravery in the distance and sighed: "He is really a tiger general."
Neither Qin Hao nor Gu Tingye pursued him. Their target was Yelu Hongji, and Yelu Zongbao actually reduced the probability of Yelu Hongji's escape.
As soon as the sky was turned, the Song Army began to attack the city. Qin Hao's engineering team once again played its role, digging holes, laying mines, igniting fires, and escaping. With the experience last time, the actions of the engineering team were even more smooth.
The Liao soldiers on the top of the city thought they had repelled the Song army's attack, and just as they were about to cheer, they felt the mountain shaking beneath their feet.
"The earth dragon turns over, the earth dragon turns over again!"
With a rumble, a city wall collapsed directly. Shunzhou City was not as strong as Youzhou City. A wall fell directly in one fell swoop, causing numerous casualties to the Liao army.
Amidst the smoke and dust, Qin Hao and Gu Tingye led the Song soldiers into the city, and the battle continued until late at night.
Yelu Hongji tried to lead the Pishi army to break out several times, but failed. He had no choice but to hide in the Shuncheng government office for the last stubborn resistance.
At this time, he regretted very much why he did not break out of the encirclement with Yelu Zongbao.
"Mom, all the archers, please show me your aim. If anyone hits Yelu Hongji, let me deal with him!"
Outside Shunzhou Yamen, the besieging Song army general shouted.
The living Yelu Hongji and the dead Yelu Hongji are completely different concepts. What an honor it would be if we could capture the Emperor of Liao alive and send him to Bianjing as a prisoner?
At that time, those who participated in the battle will be rewarded.
Therefore, compared to the soldiers of the Liao Kingdom, the soldiers of the Song Army were actually more concerned about the life and death of Yelu Hongji. They would avoid Zhengya when shooting arrows, for fear of shooting Yelu Hongji to death.
Soon the main entrance of the Yamen was smashed by a car, and the Liao soldiers guarding the door were quickly stabbed into a hornet's nest. With the influx of Song soldiers, all the Liao soldiers who were stubbornly resisting in the Yamen were cleared away.
Qin Hao and Gu Tingye walked over the corpses on the ground to the entrance of the government office.
Suddenly the door was pushed open from inside.
Yelu Hongji came out under the protection of the remaining dozen or so Pishi troops.
"I want to see your King Huan!"
What surprised Qin Hao was that Yelu Hongji could actually speak Chinese, and he looked very standard.
Qin Hao smiled kindly and said: "Of course there is no problem, but if you have to keep the people around you at ease, you will see His Highness Prince Huan soon."
Yelu Hongji waved his hands sadly, signaling for them to put down their weapons.
Gu Tingye waved his hand, and the Song soldiers immediately tied them up.
Yelu Hongji struggled and said: "I am the emperor of the Liao Kingdom, you can't do this to me!"
Qin Hao walked up to Yelu Hongji and said with a smile on his face: "Don't worry, we won't hurt you. We tied you up to prevent you from harming yourself. Let's go. His Highness King Huan is still waiting."
At this moment, in the military camp outside the city, Zhao Yingce was pacing back and forth when he suddenly heard a report from his subordinates: "His Royal Highness King Huan, the Marquis of Jinghai and the Marquis of Ningyuan have captured Yelu Hongji alive and have arrived outside the camp gate at this time."
"Haha~~~" Zhao Yingce laughed wildly. This was the emperor of the Liao Kingdom, and he was actually captured alive!
In the Chinese army tent, Zhao Yingce walked around for Yelu Hongji several times before he suppressed his excitement and asked as if nothing had happened.
"Are you Yelu Hongji?"
Yelu Hongji took advantage of his face and said, "I am the emperor of Liao."
As if appreciating a work of art, Zhao Yingce waved his hand to the soldiers: "Come to untie the soldiers and prepare wine and food. Today the King of Japan is going to have a drink with the King of Liao."
Before Yelu Hongji could refute that he was an emperor, not a king, the aroma of the wine and food instantly made him lose the desire to argue. It had been a day and a night, and he had not had a good meal.
After Yelu Hongji had eaten and drank enough, Zhao Yingce patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "It seems that the King of Liao still likes the customs and customs of the Song Dynasty. Not only can he speak Chinese, but he also likes Han food so much. Since
In this way, I will send you back to Bianjing so that you can fully experience the scenery of Bianjing, so that the alliance between the Song and Liao brothers will be in vain."
Yelu Hongji was shocked. He surrendered just to save his life and delay time so that Yelu Zongbao could bring people to rescue him. If he was sent back to Bianjing, everything would be over.
"I, I won't go to Bianjing. If you send me back to Shangjing, I can satisfy you with anything."
