What Brother Weiming Xiu said left Li Dingkun speechless. Li Fenglong also said: "What General Weiming said is absolutely true. We must put the overall situation first and not cause chaos ourselves!" Only Li Fenglong agreed with Brother Weiming,
The other generals were all silent, with a somewhat unpredictable look on their faces. The tent was very quiet, and the atmosphere was strange and uneasy.
Li Dingkun suddenly smiled and said: "Why is the general so nervous? I am just discussing some current issues with the general. What the general said is really serious!" When he said this, he was originally nervous.
The atmosphere immediately relaxed, and all the generals couldn't help but laugh. Brother Weiming Xiu laughed and said: "It turns out that the general is just discussing issues with us, but I am too worried!"
Li Dingkun said: "I was quite uneasy at first, but after hearing what General Li said, all my worries disappeared! General Li knows the Regent. Since General Li believes in the Regent so much,
, I naturally believe it too!" He picked up the wine glass and said loudly: "Come, come, let's drink this cup together, and wish us to defeat Yan Yun and revive Daxia!" All the generals picked up the wine glasses and shouted loudly.
He said: "Defeat Yanyun and revive Daxia!" Then he drank a glass of wine with Li Dingkun...
After the banquet, a trusted officer rushed into the tent, bowed to Li Dingkun and said: "General, my subordinates have bribed the guarding officers according to the general's instructions." Li Dingkun said: "Very good, we will act as planned tonight.
!""yes!"……
It was late at night, and as the regent, Odaochong was still sitting in his study, looking at the reports that had just been sent today, which were all daily military reports about various places in Xixia. There were military reports from Guazhou and Shazhou, saying that a
The self-proclaimed Liao force defeated the Xizhou Uighurs and occupied the entire Western Region; there was a military intelligence report from the Yan Army Division in Heishui Town, saying that the Liao army took advantage of the civil war in the inner Mongolia to defeat the five Mongolian tribes in one go.
Two of them are now making rapid progress, and the situation is very favorable to the Liao Kingdom; there are civil affairs reports from Xuanhua Prefecture and Suzhou, saying that a bumper harvest is expected in the local grain fields, and the livestock industry is in much better condition than expected at the beginning of the year...
After reading these reports, Ao Daochong couldn't help but feel relieved. He felt that after God had brought countless disasters to Daxia, he finally began to bring blessings. Grain harvests in various places were imminent and animal husbandry was booming, so the plan he had made would be complete.
It can be realized. Now that God has sent blessings, he may continue to send blessings, so that Daxia will finally defeat Yan Yun's plot to annex Daxia. At this thought, a lot of the haze that was originally suppressed in Onao Chong's heart suddenly dissipated.
.
Suddenly, the military report about the Liao Kingdom and the Mongols caught Ao Daochong's attention. Ao Daochong picked it up and read it, with a thoughtful look on his face, then revealed a smile and murmured: "By the way,
We can still do this! We surrender to the Khitans and rely on the Khitans to deal with Yanyun! The Khitans have no desire to devour our Daxia, at least not for now, but Yanyun is different. They want to destroy our Daxia
!”
After thinking about this, Ao Daochong immediately called the guards and ordered him to summon his confidant Ye Lirong. After a while, Ye Lirong hurried to the regent's study and met with Ao Daochong. Ao Daochong stood up and walked
When he came to Ye Lirong, he explained it carefully. Ye Lirong showed surprise at first, then showed admiration, and finally bowed and agreed, and hurried away.
Odao rushed out of the study and looked at the night sky with brilliant stars and moon. He felt cheerful in his heart, and the dark clouds for many days seemed to have disappeared.
An officer suddenly ran in from outside, rushed to Aodaochong, knelt down and reported: "Your Majesty, the Tibetan envoy killed the guards and escaped!" Aodaochong frowned and asked angrily: "How could that be?
Such a thing happened?" The officer muttered: "This, this, my subordinates don't know!" Odaochong felt that the Tibetan envoy's escape would have no impact on the current situation, so he did not take the matter seriously and said:
"Okay, I understand. You go and bury the sergeants who were killed and deal with them as if they were killed in battle." The officer promised and hurried away.
Ao Daochong was originally in a good mood, but was disturbed by this incident. He muttered: "Damn the Tubo people!" Then he thought of Li Tianhao, who had not heard back from his mission to Tianjing New City, and couldn't help but frown.
He frowned. What he is most worried about now is the attitude of King Yan Yang Peng. Now everything can be said to be under control. It depends on Yang Peng's attitude. As long as Yang Peng believes that his side will surrender and not attack.
If so, then the overall situation is under control. Although Aodaochong felt that his side's false surrender would definitely deceive King Yang Peng of Yan, before the result came out, he still felt uneasy in his heart.
At this time, it was already getting very late, but Odaochong had something on his mind but was not sleepy at all. He returned to the study, sat down, and continued to read official documents.
Early the next morning, Aodaochong went to inspect various city gates as usual. Just as Aodaochong came to the east city gate to inspect, he suddenly saw a fast horse galloping in the fields far outside the city.
Come. Odaochong and others couldn't help but stop and look around. They saw a fast horse galloping towards them, but they couldn't see the face of the person. After a while, the sound of horse hooves gradually became clearer, and the knight on the horse could also see clearly.
, is a knight in party uniform. Ao Dao Chong's heart moved and he couldn't help but become nervous.
Soon after, the knight rushed to the city gate, reined in his horse suddenly, and the horse neighed and he stood up. Then the knight took out a token, raised it high, and said loudly: "I am Li Tianhao
The messenger sent back by your Excellency, please open the city gate quickly!" The city gate opened immediately, and the messenger rushed in. As soon as he entered the gate, the city gate captain stopped him, pointed to the city gate corridor above his head and said: "Your Majesty is in the city.
On the gate tower." The messenger immediately got off his horse and ran towards the city gate tower.
He ran to the city gate tower and saw Aodaochong. He quickly bowed and said, "I pay my respects to the regent!"
Odaochong said urgently: "What's the situation? Tell me quickly!"
The messenger said: "Reply to your Majesty, when we arrived at Tianjing New City, King Yan Yang Peng had been seriously ill and bedridden for more than ten days..." Odao said happily: "He is bedridden? Haha, that's really true.
God has eyes! If he died just like that, that would be a great joy!" Then he asked: "How is his condition? Is he about to die?"
The messenger said: "This is not clear. However, according to Mr. Li Tianhao's speculation, although King Yan's condition is serious, his life should not be in danger."
Odaochong nodded and said: "Li Tianhao is thoughtful and resourceful. Since he made this judgment, he must not be wrong. Oh, what a pity!" He glanced at the messenger, frowned and asked: "Since Yang Peng is ill.
Bed, then who met you?" The messenger said: "They are the two princesses of King Yan, one is named Han Bing and the other is named Yelu Hanyu." Odaochong nodded and said: "I heard about these two women.
I have said that they are the two most courageous princesses in the harem of King Yan. Yang Peng often sent them to Bianliang when he was away on war. Yang Peng asked them to come to meet Li Tianhao, which shows that he attaches great importance to our surrender!" Then he asked
: "What's the other party's attitude? Is things going well?"
The messenger smiled and said: "Things went very smoothly! The other party was very happy about our surrender, and discussed the specific matters of surrender in detail with Mr. Li Tianhao." Then he took out a letter from his arms, held it up with both hands, and said: "This
It is the surrender matters that Mr. Li Tianhao has agreed upon with the other party to plan, and I would like your Majesty to take a look at it." O Daochong quickly picked up the letter, opened the envelope, took out the letter paper, unfolded it and read it over. There was a mocking smile on his face.
The messenger said: "The envoy from Yanyun and Lord Li Tianhao have already set off. Due to the large team and many gifts, it may take several months to arrive at Xiliang Mansion."
Odaochong chuckled and said, "Take your time, don't be in a hurry, the later they come, the better!"
Aodao rushed back to the palace, immediately summoned the generals, and told the story about Yan Yun's deception. The generals were overjoyed. Brother Wei Mingxiu couldn't help but admired: "The king has such a clever plan, even the legendary Zhuge Liang can only do this."
!" Many generals agreed. Aodaochong stretched out his right hand and grabbed the air, and said excitedly: "Everything is in my king's plan! Hum, they say Yang Peng is so cunning, I think he is nothing more than that, that's not it.
You are being manipulated by this king!" All the generals praised him one after another, and everyone seemed to admire him very much.
A herald rushed in, knelt down and reported: "Your Majesty, the 150,000 Yanyun army has left Zhuoluo City, entered the snowy mountains, and is confronting the Tibetan army on the snowy mountains.
Aodaochong laughed and said sarcastically: "The Yanyun people thought that we were going to surrender, so they had no worries, so they went to fight the Tubo people to death! OK, OK, let them fight. It's best to fight until there are corpses everywhere."
Both sides suffer!" The generals laughed.
The sun has set in the west, and it is already evening. In the past, at this time, Ao Daochong would come to the four gates to inspect, but today Ao Daochong did not come. Now the overall situation is under his control, Yan Yunjun
After going to fight the Tibetans, he had nothing to worry about. He had been tired and nervous for such a long time and could finally rest.
News about the ongoing war between the Yanyun Army and the Tubo people spread throughout the streets and alleys of Xiliang Mansion. The originally panicked people finally showed their long-lost smiles, and everyone felt as if the war was far away from them.
A few days passed in a blink of an eye, and Xiliang Mansion had returned to its former bustle. In the taverns and teahouses, people were telling legendary stories. The protagonist of the story was Odaochong, who was said to be as clever and strategizing as Zhuge Liang.
The decisive victory was thousands of miles away, and with just a flick of the feather fan, the powerful enemy was wiped out. The speaker was foaming at the mouth, and the listener was enjoying it. Aodaochong has become the new idol in the hearts of the party members.
That night, Aodaochong, who was no longer worried, was drinking and chatting with his two concubines in the back garden. After a few cups of yellow soup, he lost his beauty and became obsessed with himself.
Bang bang bang bang! Bang bang bang bang! The door suddenly rang loudly. Aodaochong, who was in high spirits, was startled. Then he became very angry and yelled: "What the hell are you doing? Get out of here!"
Bang bang bang bang! Bang bang bang bang! The door actually rang loudly again. Odaochong was very angry, and then he felt that something big must have happened, otherwise how could his subordinates be so ignorant. As soon as he thought about this, he
After comforting the two beautiful concubines with kind words, they got down from the bed, put on their clothes and robes. During the process, the door kept ringing, as if to remind them.
Odao rushed to the door, opened the door, and said angrily: "What's going on?" He saw the guard captain standing at the door, looking panicked, as if he had seen a ghost. The guard captain saw Odao
He rushed out and said anxiously: "Oh no, King, come out, something big happened!..." At this point, he couldn't catch a breath, swallowed his saliva, and then said: "They, they rebelled!"
Dao Chong was stunned for a moment, not understanding what he meant.
At this moment, a fierce roar suddenly came from the street outside, and then a fierce fighting sound came from the direction of the palace gate, and then there was a loud noise, as if the door was slammed open.
Chong was still confused and couldn't figure out what happened, but the guard captain said with a pale face: "No, it's bad, they are coming in!" Then he grabbed Odaochong's arm and shouted urgently.
He said: "Your Majesty, run away with me quickly! Otherwise it will be too late!" He said, regardless of whether Ao Daochong was happy or not, he dragged Ao Daochong towards the back door, with more than a dozen guards guarding him.
Ao Daochong couldn't help but follow the guards and ran towards the back door. He heard the terrible murderous shouts pouring from the gate to the patio, from the patio into the hall, and from the hall into the backyard. After all, Ao Daochong was the wise man.
Senior, who had guessed something at this time, asked the captain of the guard: "Who is it? Who dared to rebel because of his ambition?" The captain of the guard said: "It's General Li Dingkun!..."
Ao Daochong showed a look of shock. He was not afraid of other people's rebellion. However, it was very bad for Li Dingkun to rebel. As the iron kite general, he had a very high status, and the five thousand iron soldiers under his command were very high.
Yaozi is an elite member of the army. Although they are not the largest in number, they are extremely powerful. Even if this rebellion is suppressed, there will be a heavy price to pay! Ao Daochong thought that he had managed to achieve what he has now.
In this situation, Li Dingkun saw that his rebellion was going to ruin all his previous efforts, and he couldn't help but feel extremely angry.
The captain of the guard added: "There are also General Yeli Yuqi and General Erpang!"
After hearing this, Aodaochong's anger turned into horror in an instant. Among the 50,000 troops currently in Xiliang Mansion, more than half are the defeated troops brought down from the east by Yeli Yuqi and Epan. These two people also
It can be said that the situation of rebellion together is over. Ao Daochong's mind was in a mess, and he didn't know what to do for a moment. He originally planned to go to the military camp to mobilize troops and come back to quell the rebellion, but now it seems that this will definitely not work.
Already.
A group of people rushed out of the back door. The alley outside the back door was very quiet, and not a single person was seen. Everyone could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. At this time, the sound of killings in the palace was loud, the shouts were shaking, and there was a commotion.
A group of people hurried towards the entrance of the alley.
Suddenly, countless flames appeared in front of them. Everyone was startled, and quickly stopped and took a closer look. They saw countless sergeants standing under the fire. The leading general was Epon. Epon was sitting high on the horse.
, laughed loudly, and said loudly: "My King, you can't run away, surrender quickly! The general will never hurt you!" Aodao rushed to a group of people and quickly turned around and ran, but countless people also appeared behind him.
The rebels blocked the other end of the alley. Aodaochong and others were desperate. At this time, more than a dozen of their own people had become turtles in the jar.
Li Dingkun sat on Ao Daochong's seat and burst into laughter. All the generals bowed together: "See the regent!" Li Dingkun was proud and said loudly: "You guys have helped me achieve this great achievement. I must have done a lot for you."
There is a reward!" The generals were overjoyed.
At this moment, several people poured in from the door, but it was Epang who rushed in with the embarrassed Ao Daochong. Li Dingkun stood up, walked to Ao Daochong, and asked very proudly: "Your Majesty,
Unexpected?"
Ao Daochong glanced at the proud Li Dingkun and said bitterly: "I hate it so much! We have failed for Shan Jiuren! I, Daxia, was originally looking forward to Zhongxing, but a rebellious minister and traitor like you came out, completely ruining Daxia Zhongxing."
Hope!" Speaking of his hatred, he wanted to pounce on Li Dingkun and bite Li Dingkun, but he was pulled by two rebel soldiers by his arms and could not move at all.
Li Dingkun sneered and said angrily: "Don't talk about yourself as if you are the savior of our party people! You are not! If it weren't for you, Xingqing Mansion wouldn't have thrown it away! As for Zhongxing Daxia, you kind of
It's ridiculous to be able to revive Daxia by acting like a coward. My approach is different from yours. I will wait until the fight between Yanyun and the Tubo people is inextricable, then send troops to attack the rear of Yanyun's army and fight with the Tubo people.
The two armies attacked each other and annihilated Yanyun's army in one go! Then he sent his army eastward, captured Fuxingqing Mansion, returned to the old territory of Daxia, and then crossed the Yellow River and marched straight into the Central Plains, achieving immortal achievements!"
Odaochong was anxious and angry. He suddenly remembered something and said, "The Tibetan envoys killed the guards and escaped. I'm afraid it wasn't them who did it, but you who let them go!"
Li Dingkun showed surprise and nodded: "Not bad!" He glanced at Ao Daochong and said semi-sarcastically: "You are so smart, you actually guessed this!" Li Dingkun snorted and said: "You passed.
The Tubo envoy has colluded with the Tubo people! Unexpectedly, I really underestimated you. I originally thought you were just a warrior, but I didn't expect you to be so deep in the city! What kind of alliance did you and the Tubo form?" This is the last sentence.
The tone of the question was full of questioning, not like a prisoner.
Li Dingkun was about to reveal all his plans and show off, but he didn't care about O Daochong's tone and said with a smile: "In fact, now is a great opportunity to turn defeat into victory! As long as we annihilate the 150,000 swallows in front of us.
The Yun army and the Yanyun army are short of food and grass, so our army can take this opportunity to regain the old territory! The Tubo people and I have made an agreement. After we annihilate the 150,000 Yanyun army, we will march eastward and our army will attack the Hetao.
, the Tubo army is attacking Shaanxi and Gansu! The Yanyun army must have been caught off guard, and our army has a great chance of winning!"
Ao Daochong sneered repeatedly, shook his head, glanced at Li Dingkun, and said contemptuously: "You underestimate King Yan and Yan Yunjun too much. It is impossible to achieve your goal by talking on paper like this!"
Li Dingkun was furious and said in a cold voice: "After hearing what you said, I really doubt whether you have taken refuge in Yang Peng! No matter how powerful Yang Peng is, he is still a human being, not invincible. Besides, he is ill.
The bed is difficult to govern, and Yanyun has no leader. This is a great opportunity for us to defeat Yanyun and regain the rivers and mountains!" Then he said proudly: "The reason why Yanyun's army won one after another before was just because of tricks. Now it is us who are responsible for the tricks.
But the Yanyun side was caught off guard, and our army has no reason to be invincible!" Epon echoed: "What the general said is absolutely true! This time, we have a sure chance of victory in Daxia!"
O Daochong sneered: "Even if you can succeed, it is just a rebellion against superiors!" Li Dingkun said: "You are the one who committed rebellion, not me, Li Dingkun!" Then he took out a copy of the imperial edict, raised it high, and said loudly:
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Queen Mother, has passed down a sacred order, ordering me, the general, to lead the army to exterminate the rebellious Ondaochong who has caused rebellion! This general is acting according to the order, and I will take advantage of you as a traitor!" Aodaochong was shocked and said in disbelief: "Why?
,How can it be!"
Li Dingkun said proudly: "The Queen Mother personally handed over the imperial edict to me. Could it be fake?" When Li Dingkun said the word 'Queen Mother', there was an ambiguity in his eyes. Odaochong saw Li Dingkun's face.
With a look on his face, he suddenly thought of a message that was circulated not long ago. Everything suddenly became clear to him, and he secretly cursed him as a slut.
Ye Liyu came running in, saluted Li Dingkun and said: "General, the rebels led by Brother Weimingxiu and Li Fenglong have been defeated. Li Fenglong committed suicide out of fear of crime, and Brother Weimingxiu escaped." Li Dingkun nodded, "Okay!
The important task is finally completed, and we have finally lived up to the great trust of the Queen Mother and Her Majesty!" He turned to look at Ao Daochong and asked proudly: "What should I do with you?" Ao Daochong snorted, "Prince Chengze.
Defeat is a thief, kill me!"
Li Dingkun said: "You are also a rare talent. As long as you are willing to admit your sins, I can put in a few nice words for you in front of the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother is kind and will definitely forgive your past sins!"
Already prepared to die, Ao Daochong took the risk, glanced at Li Dingkun, and said mockingly: "I'm afraid the general said this to the Queen Mother on her bed!" Li Dingkun was shocked, and everyone else was shocked.
His heart moved and he looked strange. Li Dingkun became angry and cursed: "You old immortal thing! You are really shameless! Since you want to die, this general will make it happen for you! Come on!" Even as two soldiers stepped forward to accept the promise.
Li Dingkun pointed at Aodao and shouted: "Drag this old guy down and execute him in Lingchi!!" Aodao was shocked. Although he was determined to die, he didn't expect that the other party would use such a cruel method to deal with him. He was horrified and angry.
It came to my mind and I couldn't help but curse.
At this moment, a huge sound of fighting and roaring suddenly came from the direction of the south city gate. Li Dingkun and others were stunned when they heard the sound.
What happened after all? Let’s look at the breakdown next time.
