Chapter 154: The thieves never want to get close to Yanmen Pass
Yelu Dilie listened to Xiao Daqian's reply in front of him.
Not only did he listen, he also specially called for the civil and military officials from Yunjiuzhou.
Among them were Khitan generals such as Yelu Haisi, Xiao Shulu Lie, Li Liang, Sun Zhikai, and Mu Ling, as well as Han civil servants such as Ma Dechen, Tao Jie, and Shao Ze.
As soon as Xiao Dagan made it clear what Yelu Kui meant by sage, Yelu Haisi immediately stopped and cursed: "When did the Khitans in Yunzhong need to look at the faces of their Mobei Khitans? What the hell."
The Khitan split was called randomly at first, but over the years it has gradually become unified.
The Khitan located in Yunjiuzhou has Datong Yunzhong as its core, which is called the Khitan in Yunzhong.
And Yeluqu Sage is located in Mobei, so it is called Mobei Khitan.
As for Yelu Bishe, they called them false emperors, and those who lived in the east were called Dong Khitan.
Over the years, soldiers from the Central Plains have helped and fought alongside them many times. Yang Ye even put himself in danger many times, using his cavalry to detour behind enemy lines and save them from fire and water. The Khitans in Yunzhong and the Central Plains have already forged a deep friendship.
Yelu Haisi was saved by Yang Ye on the battlefield, and he admired Yang Ye's military courage very much.
No matter what, he was unwilling to be enemies with Zhongyuan and Yang Ye.
There are many people who have the same idea as Yelu Haisi, and Xiao Shulu Lie is one of them.
Xiao Shulu Lie is Xiao Daqian's nephew.
Xiao Siwen's death was related to Yelv Bishe.
In order to appease the Xiao family, Yelu Bishe paid a lot of chips. Abolition of the main wife and the establishment of Xiao's daughter as queen was one of them.
The Khitan Xiao family is a huge family, not just Xiao Siwen.
Considering their own interests, the Xiao family did not continue to investigate the fact that Xiao Siwen was killed by the Han family.
Xiao Siwen's lineage also gradually declined due to his death and Yelu Bishe's deliberate use of it, and was even ostracized.
Xiao Shulu Lie was dissatisfied and took his wife, children and some of his tribe to surrender to Xiao Dagan.
Xiao Shu Lulie was one of the horse attendants of the Eastern Khitan. He was good at riding and was highly regarded by Yelu Dilie.
Xiao Shulu Lie also has a son named Xiao Taolin, who is under eighteen this year. He is born with supernatural powers and is extremely brave. At this young age, he is already the best Khitan player in the clouds.
Xiao Shu Lu Lie defected to the Yunzhong Khitan not long ago, but because both father and son were great talents, their status in the Yunzhong Khitan rose rapidly.
Xiao Shulu said: "The King of Taiping has no good intentions. Even if it is true as he said, he will not hurt anyone or a sheep. How can the king face the emperor of the Central Plains afterwards?"
Li Liang, Sun Zhikai, and Mu Ling, all generals, most of them are biased towards the Central Plains.
On the contrary, Han Chinese such as Ma Dechen, Tao Jie and Shao Ze remained silent.
Seeing that the atmosphere was about to get better, Yelu Dilie said to himself mockingly: "You won't hurt me and one sheep?"
"Are you treating me like a three-year-old child?"
He suddenly stood up, took two steps to the left and right, made up his mind, and said: "Give me the order to drive all our cattle and sheep towards Yanmenguan, leaving no grassland in the north. Send cavalry to patrol the border. If you encounter rangers for reconnaissance,
, shot him directly, and ordered all the people to pack up and enter the city. Tell all the soldiers that the Central Plains has helped us a lot for free, and the northern thieves intend to go south to plunder. I, a Khitan hero, value friendship the most. No matter who is an enemy of the Central Plains, he is against us.
The Khitans in the Middle Kingdom are our enemies. Unless the Khitans in my clouds are destroyed, the thieves from the north will never even think of getting close to Yanmen Pass."
Yelu Dilie's decision won the support of everyone and they all shouted in response.
Ma Dechen just said: "Your Majesty, the Taiping King's strength is limited. Their strength is only three points inferior to ours, and it is far from enough to deal with the Central Plains. They will definitely gather all the tribes that are blocking the divination and some friendly tribes to act together. As I say
It is difficult for us to be hostile because of the power of the Central Plains. It is best to ask for support from the Central Plains."
Yelu dilie nodded and said: "Mr. Ma's words are reasonable, so it is your responsibility to contact the Central Plains and ask for their help."
It's not that he doesn't know who Ma Dechen, a Jinshi from the Central Plains, has his heart towards.
However, if the administration of Yunjiuzhou is to be smooth, capable ministers like Ma Dechen are indispensable, and Ma Dechen has never done anything in Yunzhong that harmed Yunzhong's interests. Instead, he argued with Zhongyuan for the sake of the people of Yunzhong in an elegant and easy-going manner at the negotiation table.
It was easy to use, so I thought about it.
Ma Dechen solemnly accepted the order.
Yelu Dilie actively prepared for war, and Ma Dechen also reported the situation to Taiyuan.
In fact, there was no need for him to carry the news. Lu Duoxun, who was in Taiyuan, never missed any news from the north.
Lu Duoxun did not have the ability to detect the situation of the Divination Department deep in the desert, but the changes in Yunzhong and Yelu Sage were all under his control.
Lu Duoxun informed Luo Youdu of Yelu Dilie's reaction in detail, and told Yang Chongxun that Zhe Yuxun was ready to resist the enemy and fight.
As for Yang Ye, Lu Duoxun personally invited him to come to Taiyuan to discuss matters.
Yang Ye has been in charge of Daizhou in recent years and has been in contact with the Khitans in Yunzhong for a long time. The early winter this year, coupled with the fire in Taiyuan, has led to insufficient food sales in the north. He has already had a premonition of battle and strengthened the defense of Yanmen Pass. He got Lu
Duo Xun summoned him, and without any hesitation, he rode a fast horse and rushed to Taiyuan.
Lu Duoxun did not hide his plan and explained the situation to Yang Ye in detail.
Yang Ye suddenly realized, and then he understood the cause and effect, with a trace of excitement in his eyes.
Yang Yezhong was a fierce and brave general. As a Han general, he had a high sense of national integrity. He changed his surname in his early years because his family had no choice. Historically, after he grew up, he had the idea of promoting unification. He did not abandon the North.
The Han Dynasty did not contact the Song Dynasty secretly, but repeatedly advised Liu Jiyuan to attack the Khitans by surprise and surrender to the Song Dynasty with the Khitan heads. In this way, Liu Jiyuan would be treated politely by the Central Plains. He would not let down the Liu family and fulfill his righteousness.
Over the years, he had guarded Daizhou and helped the Khitan in Yunzhong many times, but he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. Yunjiuzhou was obviously the territory of the Central Plains.
Now that he heard Lu Duoxun's plan, Yang Ye immediately said loudly: "If Lu Zhizhou has any instructions, just say so."
Lu Duoxun said: "The key to this battle is not to retreat from the enemy, but to promote a complete break between Yelu Sage and Yelu Dilie. As long as the Yunzhong Khitan and Mobei Khitan break up, the Yunzhong Khitan can only rely on the Central Plains and nothing else.
There is still a way to go. I know the beauty of the invincibility of a general's golden sword. Don't rush out to defeat the enemy and wait for reinforcements. Don't show off your power and use your cavalry to cut off the rear."
Yang Ye's performance in the past few years is a bit terrible, especially running thousands of miles, cutting off the enemy's food routes, and making full use of the characteristics of the cavalry.
If you accidentally cut off the enemy's retreat and prevent each other from fighting, that would not be good.
Yang Ye agreed and said, "Okay, listen to Lu Zhizhou."
Lu Duoxun said: "General, does he know about the Divination Department?"
Yang Ye said: "I've heard of it!"
Lu Duoxun said: "In the future, we will call him Mongolia, and we should be careful when fighting Mongolia. For some reason, your Majesty asked a few more questions about their situation in the letter. If there is a chance, the general may wish to test it out."
"The Department of Divination..."
Before Yang Ye finished speaking, Lu Duoxun emphasized: "It's called Mongolia!"
