When we were about to return to Xiongzhou, we heard the sound of horse hooves behind us.
The three of them couldn't help but look back in surprise, they came too fast.
In the blink of an eye, you are there.
The man on the horse jumped to the ground, cupped his hands and said, "I've seen the prince, General Dong, and General Hua."
The person who came had red hair and a yellow beard, but it was Duan Jingzhu, a golden retriever. The horse he rode was all white, without a single hair. It was one foot long from head to tail, and eight feet high from hoof to ridge.
Chao Yong also jumped off his horse and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you lately?"
Duan Jingzhu was a little flattered when he saw Chao Yong getting off his horse and talking, and said hurriedly: "Young man walks in the north all the year round. There is no danger in traveling between the two countries."
Chao Yong saw that Duan Jingzhu was naked and said with a smile: "You are swimming across the river. Mount your horse and we will talk about it when we go back."
Duan Jingzhu nodded and said: "The Liao people around the pontoon are watching closely, so they can only come from other places. Prince, please ride this horse. I specially snatched it and dedicated it to the prince. It was originally the mount of the emperor of Liao. The attendant came out
I snatched a horse from the camp. This horse is from the West and can travel thousands of miles in a day. Because the hair around its neck is like that of a lion, it is called the Zhaoye Jade Lion Horse."
Chao Yong's eyes were already hot at the sight. Hearing this, he also smiled and said, "Then I won't be polite."
The Zhaoye Jade Lion Horse had a violent temperament when he was young, but when he grew up, he would be kicked out of the herd, and his temperament would become much docile. However, Chao Yong suddenly got on the horse, and still jumped up and down restlessly, trying to throw Chao Yong off.
.
Chao Yong had ridden many fierce horses in these years. He clamped his legs together hard and the Zhaoye Jade Lion Horse was relieved from the pain.
Duan Jingzhu couldn't help but shake his head secretly when he saw the prince using violent methods to train horses. He was good at looking at and training horses, so naturally he was also a horse lover, and he liked the Zhaoye Jade Lion very much, but he also knew that this horse
The horse was of greater use to the prince, so he reluctantly gave up his love.
Riding on a Zhaoye jade lion horse, he was obviously a head taller than Dong Ping.
Chao Yong also wanted to try this horse, so he lightly kicked the horse's belly and said: "Drive."
The Zhaoye Jade Lion Horse understood this and immediately spread its hooves and started running. Seeing that its master did not stop it, it continued to accelerate.
At first, Dong Ping, Hua Rong, and Duan Jingzhu were able to follow behind, but soon there was no trace of the prince.
Chao Yong only felt this way when he was racing like lightning.
Although the wind brought by it made it difficult for him to open his eyes, he still allowed the Zhaoye Jade Lion Horse to gallop as much as he wanted. This is a real BMW.
Within a moment, Chao Yong arrived outside Xiongzhou City.
The soldiers on the city wall saw a white horse approaching quickly. When they were still thinking about whether to give a warning, the war horse had already stopped at the city gate.
When the soldiers at the city gate saw that it was the prince, they all raised their chests to salute, but from the corner of their eyes they glanced at Chao Yong's steed, the Zhaoye Jade Lion Horse.
Chao Yong was not in a hurry to enter the city. He waited for Dong Ping and the others to come up before heading to the military camp together.
Hua Rong and Dong Ping even looked at the shining jade lion under Chao Yong's crotch with envy. For generals, BMWs, armors, and weapons are always what they pursue.
However, Chao Yong was helpless. He had finally obtained such a BMW, so naturally he would not let it go.
Chao Yong remembered the origin of the horse and asked: "The emperor of Liao went south?"
Duan Jingzhu nodded and said: "The Emperor of the Liao Kingdom is going to go on a personal expedition and has brought five thousand cavalry south. We should arrive at the Baigouhe camp in a day or two."
When Dong Ping heard that the Emperor of Liao was coming, he couldn't help but said: "Prince, if we kill the Emperor of Liao in a surprise attack, won't we be able to defeat Liao easily?"
Although Dong Ping couldn't do the legendary task of taking the head of an admiral out of a million soldiers, he was still a good charger. If he formed a sharp knife with himself as the leader, he could probably directly insert it into the Liao army and kill the Liao Kingdom.
emperor.
Chao Yong thought for a while, shook his head and said: "The Liao Kingdom is already declining, and the Jin Kingdom is quite likely to be swept away by the autumn wind. If we kill the emperor of the Liao Kingdom, we may cause civil strife in the Liao Kingdom and allow the Jin Kingdom to reap the benefits. The Jin people
Tyranny, we still need the Liao people to help us resist the Jin Kingdom for the time being."
Dong Ping said: "Is it possible that we really want to fight a decisive battle with the Liao army?"
Chao Yong shook his head and said: "No, the cost of a decisive battle with the Liao people is too high. We just need to scare them. We will go back to the camp and tell them."
Let’s talk about the Baigou River camp in the Liao Kingdom. Yelv Dezhong had pulled out all the weeds along the road early and sprinkled water on it to prevent dust from flying.
His younger brother, King Yelu Dezhong, had already sent his four sons to greet the emperor Yelu Yanxi. Hearing that one of the emperor's war horses had been snatched away, he did not dare to neglect and led the camp generals ten miles out of the camp to greet him.
Yelu Yanxi really had a dark face. He liked hunting and had several thousand-mile horses, but the Zhaoye Jade Lion Horse was still his favorite, so he asked the guards to let the horses run freely every day. Unexpectedly,
It was undoubtedly a great shame and humiliation for him that the horse of the majestic emperor was actually snatched away by someone in the country of Liao. Unfortunately, the jade lion horse ran so fast in Zhaoye that the guards even wanted to chase it.
No. But I heard from the guards that the man who snatched the horse went all the way south. He probably escaped to the Central Plains, which was consistent with his southward destination.
Therefore, after Yelu Yanxi entered the military camp, he couldn't wait to ask: "Can the army go south?"
Yelvde nodded and said, "With the Emperor's order, the army can cross the river."
Yelu Yanxi nodded with satisfaction and said, "Is there any news from the southerners?"
Yelu De thought again, but still did not dare to hide it, and reported: "Chao Yong, the prince of Liang Kingdom, led his troops to recapture Xiongzhou after he went north. Yesterday, he brought two people to check Baigou River and shot several of my generals.
.Then the Southerners set up camp five miles away on the other side of the Baigou River without destroying the pontoon bridge. It seemed that they were going to fight us on the other side of the Baigou River."
Yelu Yanxi asked curiously: "How many soldiers and horses do the southerners have?"
"The Yuanlanzi expedition reported that there should be about 50,000 people, which is about the same number as us."
Xiao Fengxian, a close minister, said: "This Liang country is just a group of grass bandits in the Central Plains. They must be a mob. How dare they dare to fight with us? Is it possible that they are deceitful?"
Yelu Dashi explained: "The Central Plains is in chaos now. Tian Hu in the east of Hedong and Wang Qing in Huaixi are competing for territory with the Liang State. I heard that Xixia has also sent troops. I have concluded that the Liang State may want to fight us as soon as possible to determine the outcome.
Then he left and went south to seize territory."
Yelu Yanxi nodded and said: "Li Qianshun of Xixia has sent someone to inform us, inviting us from Daliao to send troops together to capture the Central Plains."
Emperor Li Qianshun of the Western Xia Dynasty succeeded to the throne at the age of three. At first, the Queen Mother controlled the government. After more than ten years, the Emperor of Liao killed the Queen Mother and Li Qianshun took over the military and political power. Therefore, Li Qianshun was in awe of the Liao Kingdom and begged the Liao clan's daughter.
Yelu Nanxian became the queen, and she also carefully served the Liao Kingdom on weekdays. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
