In order to facilitate the news of the Liao civil war, Li Liangzuo ordered the title of Liao Kingdom to be changed, the northern region led by Yelu Hongji was called Northern Liao, and the southern region led by Yelu Chongyuan was called Southern Liao. This was also the beginning of the Liao Kingdom's civil war for several years. In order to make the Liao Kingdom's civil war as long as possible, Li Liangzuo used all kinds of tricks.

Before he knew it, Yale Chongyuan had been emperor for a month, and the army of Southern Liao had been stationed on the south bank of Huanghe for more than half a month. In this half month, it was not Yelu Chongyuan or Yelu Hongji, but Li Liangzuo, who was completely invincible. Li Liangzuo had more to do with the Liao civil war than anyone else. Li Liangzuo's greatest wish was that this civil war could continuously consume the vitality of the Liao Kingdom.

In the Xingqing Prefecture Central Army camp, the Tianlang Division stationed here, the heavy armored cavalry division, is stationed here. There is a huge sand table in the central army's tent. The sand table is marked with the confrontation between the Southern Liao and Northern Liao on both sides of the Huanghe River, as well as the comparison of military forces and the storage of logistics food and grass. Due to the omnipresent investigation of Yipintang, Li Liangzuo was able to get information at the first time for all the situations of the Northern Liao army.

Li Liangzuo sat on the commander's chair, and below were the Central Army generals and senior officers of the border troops stationed in Xingqing Prefecture who came from all over the place. Li Liangzuo's central army tent was very large. In addition to a large sand table in the middle, there were two small sand tables on both sides. All the generals sat on the small sand tables on both sides to deduce the war, and recorded these results for later reference. This was also what Li Liangzuo specifically requested.

"Report, report, report..." A whistleblower rushed in and reported the report; "Report to Your Majesty, the latest investigation report, the Northern Liao Emperor Yelu Hongji has returned to Linhuang Mansion in Shangjing, and at the same time, the troops from all over the country arrived along the north bank of the Huanghe River."

Li Liangzuo nodded and said, "Go down and have a rest!"

Since Li Chahan was transferred to Xizhou by Li Liangzuo to serve as General Anxi, the Chong'an Cavalry Division was handed over to Li Yi's commander. Li Yi reported to Li Liangzuo: "Your Majesty, from the comparison of the forces between the two sides now, the Northern Liao gathered more than 200,000 troops on the north bank of the Huanghe River, and the Southern Liao gathered nearly 600,000 troops on the south bank of the Huanghe River, but Yelu Chongyuan still has a great advantage in terms of strength."

Jila Yonger couldn't help but say, "Yelu Chongyuan is obviously not a big deal. He was so slow at first when he was doing things! He captured Yong'an, Longhua, Fengzhou and other places in a few days. Now, 600,000 troops were stationed on the south bank of Huanghe River and stagnated, giving Yelu Hongji a chance to gather troops."

Li Liangzuo walked down from the handsome chair and knocked Ji Layong'er's head and said, "This is the one who does big things."

Li Liangzuo pointed to the Huanghe Stone Bridge area where the two armies were facing each other and said with emotion: "Look at this small Huanghe Stone Bridge area, the Liao Kingdom has gathered 800,000 troops. These are all elite troops of the Liao Kingdom! The advantage is that more than 200,000 palace tent troops under the command of Yelu Yixin, the King of the North Court, are the most elite cavalry of the Liao army. Have you ever thought about whether one day Liao and Xia will be fully launched and the Liao Kingdom will attack the whole country, can our Daxia Kingdom live?

We always talk about the Kingdom of Daxia. Are we really bigger than the Kingdoms of Song and Liao? Whether in terms of population, territory and wealth, we are not opponents of the two countries. You people think that if you follow me and win two battles, you will be invincible in the world;

Today I will tell you that you are still far apart, but I am still far apart. Why? Because we have not experienced a big battle. From my succession to today for more than ten years, we have not even fought a real big battle. The war against Hehuang and Xizhou can only be regarded as a small battle. The real big battle cannot be resolved in a few days. It may take several months or even years to launch rounds of offensives;

You just said that Yelu Chongyuan is not a person who does great things. I told you that this is the person who does great things. At first, I thought Yelu Chongyuan would be able to conquer Shangjing Linhuang Mansion soon, but I realized that I was wrong. Although Yelu Chongyuan seemed to have all the advantages on the surface, there was one that Yelu Chongyuan did not have, that was great righteousness;

Most of the troops under Yelu Chongyuan were local Jingzhou soldiers from the Liao Kingdom. These soldiers were unable to compete with the palace tent troops under Yelu Hongji in terms of combat power and equipment. According to the recent situation I have obtained, although Yelu Chongyuan's rebellion received support from some Liao nobles, the lower-class people did not agree very much;

In other words, the people behind Yelu Chongyuan are unstable, and the military and civilians are integrated, so don’t expect the morale of the army to be stable. If I am not wrong, there are two reasons why Yelu Chongyuan stayed on the south bank of Huanghe during this period; the first is to stabilize the morale of the army; the second is to prevent the Northern Liao army from moving south so as to integrate the forces in the southern part of the Liao Kingdom as soon as possible."

Jila Yonger asked Li Liangzuo: "Your Majesty, according to your opinion, Yelu Chongyuan is doing defense rather than attack?"

Li Liangzuo explained to everyone: "Look at Yelu Chongyuan's entire front, which is completely arranged on the south bank of Huanghe River. The 600,000 army is divided into six camps with a hundred miles apart. Each camp is less than twenty miles apart, and each is a warning to each other. Once there is any disturbance, the two camps next to it can quickly rush to support. On the surface, this is the best defensive front;

But haven't you discovered it? There is another mystery hidden here. First of all, Yelu Chongyuan has enough troops to defend separately, but what if he treats each camp as an attacking place! Once Yelu Chongyuan launches a full-scale attack, as long as 600,000 troops attack in one go, even if the Northern Liao army can block two of the battalions, there are the remaining four;

As long as these four battalions can cross the Huanghe River smoothly and quickly penetrate the back of the Northern Liao army to surround the Northern Liao army, then no matter how the Southern Liao army is considered to be the winner of this battle. Now, the most important thing for the Southern Liao army and Yelu Chongyuan is time. Only by mastering the morale of the Jingzhou soldiers in the shortest time, the Southern Liao army will win in this battle;

At the same time, time is also crucial for Northern Liao and Yelu Hongji. I have received information. Yelu Hongji is summoning troops from all over the north. If these troops can arrive in a short time, the situation will probably become. Most of the people in the northern Liao Kingdom are brave and good at fighting for the herdsmen. In terms of combat power, they are much stronger than the Southern Liao army. So it is not certain who will win or lose in this war until the last moment. However, the best situation for us is that both sides can fight and lose both sides."

"Your Majesty means that this is a protracted war, and it is likely to be fought for a long time." Jila Siyi said to Li Liangzuo.

Li Liangzuo nodded and said, "That's right, I think so, but the situation on the battlefield changes rapidly, and this is just my guess. I don't know what will happen."
