Chapter 506: The Three Kingdoms Boundaries

After everyone slaughtered all the wild beasts in Langwogou, they did not change places to hunt. A dozen fierce men teamed up, and hunting wild beasts was like killing chickens and pigs. There was no suspense and no fun at all. />

The group returned to the camp. The guards from the two countries had collected a lot of firewood and returned. They roasted wild beast meat and drank wine at the camp. They ate and talked. When they were full of wine and meat, Chao Yong negotiated the national boundary with Wanyan Agu.

After the banquet was over, the soldiers and horses of the two countries took advantage of the warmth in the afternoon to go their separate ways.

Chao Yong led his troops to Datong Mansion in Xijing, while Wanyan Aguda led his troops to Zhongjing Road.

Wu Shu said unwillingly: "Your Majesty, why did you give the road to Beijing to Liang Guo?"

Wanyan Aguda said: "Most of the Shangjing Road was occupied by grassland tribes. What we conquered was only Shangjing Linhuang Mansion and a dozen border state capitals. Those grassland tribes were barbaric and good at fighting, and the Liao Kingdom did not conquer them even when it was at its peak.

, we can’t conquer them either. Since Prince Liang wants to conquer the grassland tribes, let him do it. If he conquers the grassland tribes, it will save us the need to be wary of the grassland tribes coming to plunder.”

Wu Shu said: "But if Daliang really conquers the grassland tribes, there is no guarantee that they will not use those barbarians to attack us."

Wanyan Agu shook his head and said: "The grassland is different from the Central Plains, and those barbarians will not be conquered so easily. The Liang Kingdom might be beaten to death. In the vast grassland, the power of firearms is limited, and they may not be able to scare them.

Grassland barbarians. And if the grassland tribes on Shangjing Road are assigned to us, we will not be able to conquer them. If they are assigned to Liang, they will not surrender easily. If Liang is warlike, they will attack the grassland tribes first. After all, that is

It belongs to their territory. And we can digest the Tokyo Road and Zhongjing Road. Only when the rear is stable can we compete with Daliang again."

The national boundaries between the two countries are divided. Nanjing Road and Xijing Road belong to Daliang, Tokyo Road, and Zhongjing Road belong to Jin State. Shangjing Road is divided into two parts. Linhuang Mansion and more than a dozen state capitals near Zhongjing Road and Tokyo Road belong to Jin State.

All countries and regions belong to Daliang.

Wanyan Zongwang said: "Just like what the Prince of Liang said, Yelu Yanxi should have fled to Xijing Road or Shangjing Road. If the Liang Kingdom wants to occupy Xijing Road, it must capture Yelu Yanxi or conquer all the tribes on Shangjing Road.

Otherwise, Yelu Yanxi may lead troops from Shangjing Road to attack Xijing Road at any time. It will take a lot of effort for Liang to occupy the capital of Xijing Road, let alone Shangjing Road."

Wu Shu heard his father and second brother's explanation and nodded: "In other words, we just threw the bones that can't be chewed to Liang Guo. We have to chew the things in our mouths first."

Wanyan Agu nodded and said: "Yes. We have already eaten Zhongjing Road and Tokyo Road, but there are still many people who resist. We have to chew them up and swallow them in our stomachs. Only then can we become stronger.

, with more soldiers, we can grab more things."

"I see."

In the other direction, Chao Yong led his troops to the rear of Datong Prefecture. He assigned Suochao's troops to the Hedong Army, and Xijing Road to the Hedong area.

After staying on the Xijing Road for one day, he led Hua Rong, Zhu Dian, Zhang Qing, and Liu Tang to go to Jiashan with 40,000 troops. Dong Ping from Ningxia Road also led 10,000 cavalry from his headquarters and 50,000 party vassal troops to Jiashan.

Come.

In the first year of the Apocalypse, Chao Yong led his troops to wipe out Xixia. He established the Ningxia Road, and Zhong Shidao served as the commander-in-chief of Ningxia. He successively recruited and surrendered the various tribes in the Ningxia Road. After pacifying the Ningxia Road, Zhong Shidao began to make close contacts with distant enemies, unite with the Liao Kingdom, go to Jingdao, and wipe out the tribes of Xijingdao.

Several tribes who took the opportunity to plunder the Ningxia Road were destroyed. Every time they sent out troops, the Daliang soldiers and horses did not want any trophies, cattle and sheep, and the population was all given to the tribes sent by the Liao State. After going back and forth, the tribes on the Ningxia Road, Xijing Road, and Shangjing Road were also established.

Made some friendships.

After the Jin Kingdom invaded Xijing Road, some tribes were unwilling to surrender to the unfamiliar Jin Kingdom and surrendered to Daliang. Therefore, traces of Yelu Yanxi were quickly discovered on the Ningxia Road.

Jiashan is a section of the Yinshan Mountains. The mountain range is not very high, but it is very wide. The south slope is steep and climbs south, while the north slope is gentle and connected to the vast grassland to the north.

Yelu Yanxi chose Jiashan to escape, firstly because Jiashan was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and secondly because the Liao Kingdom mined gold at the foot of Jiashan, and Yelu Yanxi could use the mined gold to recruit troops.

Another reason is that there are lush vegetation and numerous wild animals in the mountains, allowing Yelu Yanxi to hunt to his heart's content. Although he has faced the destruction of his country and his family, Yelu Yanxi's interest in hunting has not diminished at all, and his escape routes are all

He likes hunting places, Yuanyangbo, white water and mountains.

The 50,000 soldiers and horses gathered by Yelu Yanxi fought with the Jin Kingdom for several battles. When they fled back to Jiashan, there were only more than 10,000 soldiers left. However, Yelu Yanxi became more and more courageous with frustration. While hunting in the Yinshan Mountains, he made people

Continue to recruit troops. A few days ago, Yelu Dashi and Empress Dowager Xiao led 5,000 Khitan soldiers and horses to defect. Yelu Yanxi executed Empress Dowager Xiao. Everyone begged for mercy, and Yelu Yanxi spared Yelu Dashi.

Yelu Yanxi led his people to hide in Jiashan, and kept sending people to inquire about the Xijing Road, hoping that the Jin Kingdom and the Liang Kingdom would go to war over the Xijing Road, so that he could reap the benefits.

I just didn't expect that the Jin Kingdom, which had always been cruel and barbaric, actually reached a peace agreement with the Liang Kingdom and returned Xijing Road to the Liang Kingdom. One day after the Liang Prince entered Xijing Road, he led his troops to Jiashan.

When the news came that Daliang sent troops from two directions to besiege Jiashan, Yelu Yanxi hurriedly summoned his generals for discussion.

Yelu Dashi said: "The 20,000 soldiers and horses in Jiashan are our hope for the comeback of the Eastern Mountains of Liao Dynasty. The Liang Kingdom attacked with 100,000 soldiers and horses, which is five times as many as mine. I think we cannot confront the Liang Kingdom head-on."

Dutong Commander Xiao Telie said: "If Daliang wants to enter Jiashan, it must first pass through Yuyang Ridge. Yuyang Ridge is winding and winding for dozens of miles, making it an easy-to-defend but difficult-to-attack place. We only need to defend Yuyang with five thousand soldiers and horses."

Ridge, even if the Liang Kingdom has one hundred thousand soldiers and horses, they can't cross Yuyang Ridge."

Yelu Dashi said: "Don't forget the battle of Daliang to destroy the Southern Song Dynasty."

The story of the beam's airship crossing the river and the explosion of fire and thunder had already spread throughout the world through the Di newspaper.

After Xiao Telie heard this, he also thought that Daliang could use a spaceship to fly to Yuyang Ridge to bomb the defenders.

On that day, Yelu Yanxi was preparing to lead his troops to invade the south. In Hebei, Chao Yong used gunpowder to blow up the underground Great Wall. After capturing more than 10,000 people, he always feared the Liang Kingdom. Later, he found out that the Liang Kingdom’s prince had invented a spaceship that could allow people to fly into the sky.

, and no longer wanted to confront Daliang.

If the Jin Kingdom came to attack, he would definitely lead his troops to resist. Of course, if the war went bad, he would run away again. But now that Daliang came to attack, he did not want to face Daliang's firearms and spaceships at all.

"Yelü Dashi, tell me what you think."

Seeing that Yelu Yanxi didn't want to fight, Yelu Dashi said, "I thought we could temporarily avoid the enemy and retreat to the northwest of Shangjing Road to attack Si, and temporarily give up Xijing Road to the Liang Kingdom. The Liang Kingdom and the Jin Kingdom are both tigers and wolves.

They are bound to fight. We can rest and recuperate in Shangjing Road and wait for the opportunity to fight back."

Xiao Telie said: "If the Liang army directly pursues Shangjing Road, what should we do?"

Yelu Dashi smiled and said: "Liang Guo's soldiers and horses have a two-thousand-mile journey from the nearest Ningxia Road to the northwest road to recruit the division. The middle way is the territory of the Zubu tribe. The Zubu tribe has always been poor and it is impossible to provide them with food and grass. If Liang Guoqiang

If we seize the grain and fodder of the various ministries of Zhebu, they will fight to the death. If we attack from the side, we will be able to defeat the Liang ** army. If the Liang ** army carries their own food and grass, their number of soldiers and horses will be limited. If it is only 10,000

, 20,000 soldiers and horses, without us taking action, I am afraid that the various ministries will target them."

Yelu Yanxi clapped his hands and said: "Lin Ya is truly worthy of being a pillar of our Liao Dynasty. Then we will retreat to Shangjing Road and let Liang's soldiers and horses be defeated."

Brother Yelut, the Taibao, said: "There are many rebellions in Zubao. We retreat to Shangjing Road, and we must be careful of them taking the opportunity to cause rebellion."

Yelu Dashi said: "In the past few years, we suppressed the Mogus rebellion, and Zubu's vitality has been severely damaged. This time the emperor's visit in person, accompanied by 20,000 Khitan cavalry, should make Zubu dare not do anything without permission."

Yelu Yanxi had no confidence in the Shangliang Kingdom, but he had full confidence in the various ministries in the Shangprairie. He smiled and said: "There is no need to worry about blocking the divination. Please pass on my decree. Tomorrow the whole army will set off and follow me to patrol the northwest road to recruit the division."

When Chao Yong led his troops to Jiashan, Yelu Yanxi and his party had already been walking for several days.

When Chao Yong was sending people to inquire about Yelu Yanxi's whereabouts, a heavy snowfall suddenly occurred, and the snow more than a foot deep completely stopped Chao Yong from pursuing the pursuit.

Chao Yong summoned the leaders of the Yinshan tribes, Bai Dadan (Wanggu) tribe, Mo Geshi and other tribes in Jiashan.

Under the invincible power of the Prince of Daliang, the leaders of various ministries came to Jiashan one after another through the snow to pay tribute, offering cattle, horses, camels, sheep, mink skins, and green mouse skins. Chao Yong also rewarded each ministry with grain, cloth, and a small amount of ironware.

Chao Yong regarded the small amount of hero wine carried by the army as a rarity and rewarded it to the leaders of each department.

It was already cold in October, and the cold wind was howling at the top of Jiashan Mountain. After the leaders of various tribes tasted Haohan Wine, they immediately asked how to buy Haohan Wine.

On October 20, Chao Yong led Hua Rong's troops to go south. As the Hebei Army, Zhu Tong's troops returned to the newly renamed Yanshan Prefecture (Nanjing, Liao Kingdom) to guard against the Jin Kingdom. At the same time, Liu Tang's troops were included in the Hedong Army, and Zhang Qing's troops were included in the Hedong Army.

He joined the Hebei Army. After Hedong annexed Xijing of the Liao Kingdom, and Hebei annexed Nanjing of the Liao Kingdom, its jurisdiction expanded and bordered foreign ethnic groups, so the frontier army had to increase.

With the war horses contributed by various ministries, the Hua Rong tribe has been reduced to one man and three horses. Even so, it took Chao Yong and his party half a month to return to Bianjing from Jiashan.

Daliang has abolished the name of the four capitals of the Song Dynasty, and only Kaifeng can be called Bianjing. Although the four capitals of the Song Dynasty were all prosperous, they were all crowded in the Central Plains and lacked the magnanimity of a great country.

The Han people had been waiting for two hundred years to take back all the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun, and the whole city was mobilized to welcome the prince's tutor.

When Chao Yong frightened Yelu Yanxi and fled, Wanyan Aguda also led the savages of the Jin Kingdom to brutally suppress the rebellious tribes in Zhongjing Road. Xiao Qian was captured alive by Wanyan Yan's mother, nailed to a wooden donkey and tortured to death.

After Yelu Yanxi went to the Northwest Road to recruit Si, he took advantage of the remaining power of the Liao Kingdom and began to conquer the various tribes in Shangjing Road, hoping to truly bring them under his rule.

The Three Kingdoms entered a brief period of calm.
