"Playing with the Moon and Reminiscing about Cui Shaofu in Shanyin with Di Nanzhai"

When I was lying down in Nanzhai, I vomited at the beginning of the month.

The clear brilliance of water and trees plays in the window.

The passage is full and empty, and the clarity changes into the present and the past.

The beauty is by the Qingjiang River, and the night is getting more and more painful.

Thousands of miles away, the breeze blows the land.

After Yelu Ruan took care of the internal affairs, he began to think about attacking the Central Plains.

After the fall of the Later Jin Dynasty, Liu Zhiyuan became king in Taiyuan. After he heard about the death of Yelu Deguang, he led his troops to attack Kaifeng and captured Kaifeng very quickly.

Liu Zhiyuan was from Shatuo, but in order to convince the world, he said that he was a descendant of the emperor of the Later Han Dynasty, and took the name of his country as Han. This is the Later Han Dynasty in history.

After Liu Zhiyuan captured Kaifeng, many people who had thoughts about the Central Plains were unhappy. This included Emperor Li Jing of the Southern Tang Dynasty. Li Jing claimed to be a descendant of Tang Xuanzong Li Longji. From the founding of the People's Republic of China, they regarded the restoration of the Central Plains as a

Their own goals. But they knew their own strength, so they sent people to Khitan again and again and invited Khitan to attack the Central Plains together.

At that time, Shi Jingtang was attached to the Khitan, so the Khitan rejected the Southern Tang's request.

After hearing the news of Yelu Deguang's death, Li Jing still wanted to send troops to attack the Central Plains. But before he could take action, Liu Zhiyuan took the lead.

Li Jing did not give up. He once again sent people to Khitan to discuss attacking the Central Plains. Yelu Ruan Zhengchou had no chance to go south. After receiving Li Jing's invitation, he immediately summoned his ministers to discuss the attack on the Later Han Dynasty.

Unexpectedly, the chiefs of each tribe disagreed with going south. Yelu Ruan had to temporarily give up the idea of ​​going south to attack the Central Plains.

But the dream of going south has been lingering in Yelu Ruan's heart, and he led his troops south to invade the Later Han Dynasty from time to time. Not long after, Liu Zhiyuan passed away. Now he became even more unscrupulous, leading his troops deep into the interior of Hebei, burning, killing and looting.

Emperor Liu Chengyou of the Later Han Dynasty sent Guo Wei to personally lead an army to Weibo to defend the Khitans.

As soon as Guo Wei left, something happened in Kaifeng City. Liu Chengyou killed a large number of assistant ministers, and even Guo Wei was on the blacklist.

Guo Wei immediately led his troops back to Kaifeng, and Liu Chengyou was killed in the panic. Guo Wei also left Liu Zhiyuan's brother Liu Chong's son Liu Zhi as the puppet emperor.

At this time, news of another Khitan invasion reached Kaifeng. The Queen Mother of the Later Han Dynasty asked Guo Wei to lead his army north to fight. As a result, the army proclaimed Guo Wei as emperor halfway.

In this way, Guo Wei became emperor and established the Later Zhou Dynasty.

Liu Chong was unwilling to give in. He proclaimed himself emperor in Taiyuan. The country's name was still Han, and its history was called Northern Han. He was particularly at odds with the Later Zhou Dynasty.

Suffering from the lack of opportunity, Yelv Ruan could only lead troops to invade Later Zhou from time to time, but was unable to attack in a large scale. Liu Chong saw the opportunity, so he sent people to ask Yelv Ruan to attack Later Zhou together. However, Yelv Ruan was still hesitant. Liu Chong

In order to get the Khitan to send troops as soon as possible, he thought of Shi Jingtang and planned to imitate him. He wrote a letter, calling himself emperor nephew and professing his tribunalship to the Khitan.

Yelu Ruan was very happy and simply agreed to Liu Chong's request. At this time, the Southern Tang Dynasty also sent an envoy to invite

The Khitans divided the Central Plains together.

Yelu Ruan once again summoned his ministers to discuss the southern expedition, and this time everyone agreed. Yelu Ruan immediately prepared to lead his troops south to seize the Central Plains.
