Chapter 932: Snatch Liaoyang Mansion
A Guda looked at Xiao Yanshou, an old opponent, who died in front of him with a calm expression. The dozen remaining Liao cavalrymen behind him roared in grief and anger, and rushed towards A Guda with their swords, but as soon as they moved, countless arrows flew out like locusts, shooting them and their people and horses into hedgehogs.
Until then, Aguda then threw his saddle off the horse, picked up the sword that Xiao Yanshou threw in front of him, and then slowly came to Xiao Yanshou's body. Although the other party was dead, he still had his eyes open angrily. However, Aguda did not hesitate at all. He reached out to knock off Xiao Yanshou's helmet, then grabbed his hair and cut off his head with a knife. This was not just to vent his anger, but Xiao Yanshou's prestige in the Liao army. If he sent his head to the Liao Kingdom, it would definitely cause a heavy blow to the morale of the Liao army.
Soon the remaining Liao army was cleaned up. Xiao Yanshou, the cavalry who escaped from the battlefield, was unable to escape the fate of destruction. Except for a few cavalry who were very lucky and escaped through the night, the rest were almost wiped out. Aguda asked someone to cut off all the heads of the Liao army and tie them under the neck of the horse. This was also the tradition of the Jurchens in combat.
After dawn, Aguda led the army to return with a great victory, and other cavalrymen who were assigned to the road also returned to the team. In the end, except for nearly 1,000 people who lost on the battlefield, the remaining more than 3,000 cavalry finally gathered again and then quickly reached the city of Liaoyang Prefecture. After all, they came to rescue at the invitation of the Bohai people this time, and as for what to do next, it still needs to be discussed by both sides.
When Gao Yongchang learned that Aguda really brought Xiao Yanshou's head back, he was also very shocked. You must know that he was beaten by Xiao Yanshou before and almost died and destroyed the country. However, he did not expect that the Jurchens defeated Xiao Yanshou with just a few thousand troops and killed the other party. This made him have a clear understanding of the Jurchens' strength, and at the same time, he couldn't help but feel very afraid of Aguda.
"Brother Aguda, Liaoyang City has a large population, and there is really no place for you to station. I can only arrange a camp for your army outside the city. I hope Brother Aguda will not dislike you!" Outside the Liaoyang Prefecture City, Gao Yongchang led his army to welcome the return Aguda with a passionate look on his face, but although he was extremely enthusiastic on the surface, he refused to let the other party enter, and the intention of defense was self-evident.
When Agu found out that Gao Yongchang said, his expression was extremely calm. It seemed that the other party's words were not beyond his expectations. He just spoke lightly: "Your Majesty has troubled. After this war, these brothers under me were extremely tired. It is enough to have a place to rest!"
Gao Yongchang also kept secretly observing the changes in Aguda's expression. After all, although he had already become an emperor, his strength was not as good as the leader of Aguda, the Jurchen leader, so he was really afraid that Aguda would turn against him on the spot. Fortunately, the other party's expression did not change much, which made him feel relieved. At the same time, he was also laughing secretly. After all, the Jurchens are barbarians, and perhaps they are not his opponent on the battlefield. But if he talks about playing tricks, Aguda will definitely not be able to catch up. However, Gao Yongchang didn't know that if the dead Xiao Yanshou knew about it, he would probably laugh at the other party's ignorance loudly.
At that moment, Gao Yongchang personally accompanied Aguda to the camp arranged for them. There were piles of bonfires in the camp, with large pots on the fire, fragrant mutton boiled in the pot, and various good wines. It can be said that Gao Yongchang also invested a lot of money to welcome Aguda and others. After all, even though he was afraid, he did not want to offend Aguda.
Under Wang Yongchang's reception, Aguda was not polite, and he ate and drank a lot at the reception banquet. He seemed very heroic, but this also made Wang Yongchang look even more despised by him. He had only heard that Aguda was a character before, but it was just like this when he saw him today. Under the leadership of such a reckless man, no matter how strong the Jurchens are, they would not be able to do anything great.
At the end of the banquet, Aguda was drunk and the other Jurchens had almost finished drinking. At this time, Gao Yongchang said goodbye and returned to the city. On the second day, Gao Yongchang asked Aguda to come to the city to discuss matters. As a result, Aguda brought more than a dozen people into the city without any precautions and agreed to form an alliance with Gao Yongchang's Great Yuan Kingdom to deal with the Liao Kingdom together. This made Wang Yongchang's last defense against Aguda finally disappear, and he personally signed an alliance with Aguda. The two sides were considered to be a formal alliance.
Aguda rested for a few days outside Liaoyang City. During this period, Gao Yongchang was very enthusiastic about Aguda and had a banquet almost every other day. Aguda returned home drunk every time, as if he was not worried about his safety in Liaoyang Mansion. This also made Gao Yongchang trust Aguda more and he had made up his mind to form an alliance with the Jurchens to the end.
However, Aguda could not stay in Liaoyang Prefecture all the time. He soon resigned to Gao Yongchang, and Gao Yongchang felt a little reluctant to leave. However, Liaoyang Prefecture is his capital after all, and it is not that true that there are other people's troops stationed here. So after holding a grand farewell banquet for Aguda, he personally led his ministers to see Aguda off the next day.
"Brother Aguda, thank you for your rescue this time to make my Great Yuan Kingdom safe. In the future, you and I will join forces to fight against Liao. If the Liao Kingdom is destroyed, you and I will divide the country of Liao equally and become the emperor together!" Gao Yongchang sent Aguda ten miles outside the city, and then held up the wine bowl and said.
"The Liao Kingdom is the common enemy of our Jurchens and the Bohai people. Brother, I also hope to fight with Brother Gao and destroy the Liao Kingdom in one fell swoop!" A Guda also raised the wine bowl with a heroic look on his face. After saying that, the two of them drank the strong wine in the bowl together, and then looked at each other and laughed. Originally, Gao Yongchang had already proclaimed himself emperor, but in order to show his intimacy, the other party must be called brothers with Brother Gao. In the end, A Guda could only change him to Brother Gao. The two of them sipped in the "big brother" at a time when drinking. The "brother" sounded like a brother.
Next, Gao Yongchang continued Aguda's hand and talked for a long time. In addition to the alliance between the two sides, he also told Aguda to be careful on the road, which made it look like a brother separated. Aguda also showed great enthusiasm and also told Gao Yongchang to take care of his health. In the end, the two of them stumbled for a long time before they parted.
Seeing Aguda slowly disappearing on the horizon with his cavalry, Gao Yongchang was completely relieved, and then led all civil and military officials back to Liaoyang Prefecture. The surrounding guards also relaxed their vigilance when they saw the Jurchens leaving, especially when they arrived in front of the city gate of Liaoyang Prefecture, many people started to laugh easily.
However, at this moment, a sudden change broke out. A group of Jurchen cavalry suddenly appeared from the northwest of Liaoyang Prefecture and rushed into Liaoyang Prefecture in front of Gao Yongchang and others. At this time, the gate guard of Liaoyang Prefecture had no defense at all because he saw Gao Yongchang and others coming back. Later, although he discovered the Jurchen cavalry behind Gao Yongchang and others, he did not dare to close the city gate because their emperor was still outside the city. If the city gate was closed at this time, wouldn’t it be blocked by Gao Yongchang and others? If the Jurchen cavalry was not good for Gao Yongchang, he would be to blame for his death.
When Gao Yongchang saw the Jurchen cavalry coming out from behind, he was stunned. Just now, he clearly saw Aguda leading the cavalry away. Even if he turned around and killed him, it would not be so fast. So he didn't know where this Jurchen cavalry came from, and he didn't know how to deal with it.
It was also taking advantage of this opportunity that the Jurchen cavalry that suddenly emerged successfully entered the city gate, and then quickly began to compete with the Bohai people to seize the city gate. Gao Yongchang outside the city finally reacted when he saw this and immediately commanded his guards to enter the city in a furious manner to help the defenders at the city gate block the Jurchens.
However, the Bohai people under Gao Yongchang's command were not strong in combat, and even the Liao people could not defeat them before. What's more, facing this group of Jurchens who beat the Liao people to pieces, thanks to the small number of Jurchens who rushed into the city gate. Gao Yongchang personally commanded the war, which made the Bohai people so angry that the Jurchens did not successfully capture the city gate.
However, just as the Bohai people and the Jurchens at the city gate were fighting for battle, the sound of thunderous horse hooves suddenly came from the official road directly in front of the city gate. Then Aguda led the Jurchen cavalry back and rushed into the city gate with murderous aura. Gao Yongchang's face suddenly became extremely pale. With the troops around him, it was impossible for him to block Aguda's cavalry, and in the end he could only watch them rush into the city.
After Aguda led his troops into the city, he immediately divided his troops into two groups, and cooperated with the previous Jurchen cavalry to attack the city gate. At this time, Gao Yongchang and a group of ministers were also near the city gate. As long as they could be captured, half of the Great Yuan Kingdom would be destroyed. Another cavalry rushed into the city and headed straight to Gao Yongchang's palace, which was the original city lord's mansion, which was the political center of Liaoyang Prefecture. As long as they were controlled, Liaoyang Prefecture would be at your fingertips.
"Hahaha~, brother, you finally arrived. These Bohai people are really desperate and can block me for so long!" Aguda personally led the army to siege the city gate. At this time, he saw the first Jurchens who entered the city riding and laughing. This person was Wu Qimai, who had previously feinted the Huanglong Mansion. The reason why Aguda stayed in Liaoyang Mansion these days was to wait for him to come.
