To expel the thief from Wanyan’s tribe, or to join the Wanyan’s tribe to become a thief? I’m afraid the latter is more likely!

Yelu Yanxi sat on the palace hall of Liaoyang Prefecture, Tokyo, listening to the lies of the two old foxes, but thinking with malicious intentions in her heart.

He didn't care whether the two white-haired old foxes were really loyal or fooling themselves. In short, they could not let them go. Without the tens of thousands of troops in their hands, the impoverished city of Lushun would have to be filled with the lives of the Khitans.

How precious is the Khitan nation! In addition to the more than 200,000 elite troops pulled out by Yelu Yanxi, only 20,000 elite troops left behind in Kedun City, 50,000 troops left behind in Xijing Road and Taiyuan Prefecture, as well as guards Shangjing, Zhongjing, and the troops deployed to monitor Wanyan Aguda in Tongzhou, totaling only 100,000 people.

In other words, once the more than 200,000 people gathered in Liaoyang Prefecture are all fought, regardless of whether they can occupy Lushun Prefecture or not, the Liao Kingdom will be finished.

How could such a big empire, so many enemies, not a mobile corps that can be fought against the east and west?

Since the Khitan people are in high fortunes and cannot fight all, we can only fight with the Han people and the Bohai people!

It's already June, and the war preparations are almost done. Aguda, in the north, showed no sign of going south (he was waiting for Yelu Yanxi to head north). It seems that it's time to go south to Lushun Prefecture to find trouble for Wu Haogu.

Thinking of this, Yelu Yanxi just smiled coldly: "Wanyan Aguda was bewitched by others, so he would rebel and rebel. Now the first thing he had to deal with is to bewitch Aguda's rebellion, and then Aguda."

What?

Don't beat Agu anymore?

Both Ma Renwang and Dagong Ding were shocked.

The two old men swept the corners of their eyes at the same time, and they had clearly seen the expressions on the faces of the Khitan officials in the hall.

No one seemed particularly surprised!

This shows that they had known it for a long time... They all knew it, why didn't we know? Needless to say, the emperor must have refused to believe them.

One of them is a Han Chinese and the other is a Bohai native, so they should be unreliable!

It seems that you must be careful when dealing with this matter, otherwise your life will be over!

"Your Majesty, are you going to attack Youzhou?" The military quality of the Dagong Ding is not as good as that of the Ma Renwang, so the questions asked are more naive.

"Your Majesty must be trying to attack Lushun, right?" Ma Renwang immediately guessed the answer.

It is impossible to attack Youzhou! Hundreds of thousands of troops can be supplied by the fertile plains on both sides of the Liao River. Go to Youzhou. Neither Xijing Road nor Zhongjing Road can afford 400,000 troops.

I can’t afford to raise it anymore, I’m still fucked!

Therefore, the army gathered by Yelu Yanxi in Liaoyang either went north to fight Aguda or south to fight Lushun.

Lushun is a strong city built by Wu Haogu at all costs! Two lines of defense were built along Daheishan and Lushun Isthmus.

The Daheishan defense line uses Lushun Fucheng, Heishan Fort and Dongguan Fort as the defense core, and has built a city wall defense system that stretches for more than 30 miles.

The Isthmus defense line was built on the basis of the Zhendongguan Great Wall of Liao Kingdom. A fifteen-mile-long brick and stone city wall was built. It also used limestone, sandstone, and iron slag produced near Lushun Prefecture (iron ore produced in Tiezhou near Lushun Prefecture, and some wood in Lushun, so Huang Zhisheng made half an iron plant in Lushun) and built a stone wall like iron wall like a copper wall.

If you want to break through these two lines of defense, you really don’t know how much flesh and blood will be filled in... No wonder Yelu Yanxi asked his family and Da Gong Dingda to hold a group training. It turned out that he wanted the Han people from Liaodong and Bohai people to fill in the city defense of Lushun!

It's so cruel!

Yelu Yanxi looked at Ma Renwang and Dagong Ding in a cold look, "I am trying to flatten Lushun City!"

"I am willing to be the king!" Ma Renwang immediately expressed his opinion.

He is now a thief and must be more positive. And he also thought that if Yelu Yanxi really asked him to be a pioneer, he would immediately send someone to his hometown in Yiwulu Mountain and let his relatives hide in the mountains. Then he led his army to Chenzhou to meet with Ma Zhi, and then retreat to Lushun together.

The world is about to be in chaos, and there is nothing left, but the strength in your hands cannot be lacking. As long as you have the strength, you can enjoy it everywhere. If you lose your strength, the Ma family will have to live in Youzhou and be a diner.

Yelu Yanxi did not comment, but just looked at the Grand Duke Ding.

Compared to Ma Renwang, he doubted the Grand Duke Ding more.

Because no matter how much the Ma family makes trouble, it is just a prince. It is impossible to be an emperor. The Ma family does not have this strength and does not have such appeal. Moreover, the Ma family is Han people. The Han people are on Tokyo Road and Xijing Road are a long coastal strip, and at most there are some people in Yiwulu Mountain. Relying on this basic basis, we are seeking to survive in the gap between Youzhou and Liao Kingdom.

But the Bohai Da Clan is different! The Da Clan is a royal family! It is looked up to by the right surnames of the Bohai Sea. When they climbed up and called out, everyone responded. Moreover, the Bohai people occupied the fertile Liaohe River Basin in Liaodong, and there were a lot of people near Liaoyang City. If the Dagong Ding seized Liaoyang and was supported by the right surname of the Bohai Sea, they could ascend the throne and become emperor in a noble way!

The Grand Duke Ding was a little scared by Yelu Yanxi's malicious eyes, but he was an honest man after all, and he was also loyal to the Daliao. He really didn't have the intention to rebel independently. Since he had not become a thief, his heart would not be as weak as the horseman.

So the first thing he thought was that Lushun Mansion was not easy to fight.

"Your Majesty, it is difficult to attack the city of Lushun, and there are sea routes to mobilize reinforcements and food and supplies... I'm afraid it will be difficult to attack and eliminate them for a while!"

Yelu Yanxi smiled and said, "You are right, can you have good plans to eliminate the help of Lushun Sea Road?"

"Your Majesty," Ma Renwang showed positive performance, "The reinforcements from Lushun's sea route cannot be cut off! But as far as I know, Youzhou's troops are also limited. If you can't exert the limited power of Youzhou, it will be equivalent to jamming the reinforcements in Lushun."

"Oh?" Yelu Yanxi finally showed an interesting expression.

Ma Renwang said: "As far as I know, the basis of the Youzhou military system is the citizenship system. Wu Haogu has always advocated the 'the world is the public', but the 'public' he advocated is not a general public, but a limited number of citizens. Only those who serve in the military or pay taxes to a certain amount, or have outstanding knowledge can become citizens of Youzhou. What he did was to regard citizens as the pillars of the country and at the same time turn the country into a country of citizens."

"Isn't this the same as when we regard the Khitan tribe as our credentials?" Xiao Wuna, who was standing beside him, interrupted.

"What Xiao Xianggong said is very good." Ma Renwang praised it, and then said, "But the civic system in Youzhou also has a fatal weakness, that is, the number of citizens is too small, only 80,000."

"These 80,000 citizens are the foundation of Youzhou." Ma Renwang continued to fool, "The basic backbone of the Youzhou army is also from these 80,000 citizens."

"So, Wu Haogu's confidant members are less than my Khitan?" Yelu Yanxi asked.

"Your Majesty is wise." Ma Renwang smiled, "Of the 80,000 citizens, at least 30,000 are not suitable for military service. Therefore, the maximum number of civilians in Youzhou is only 50,000. Although Wu Haogu can still spend money to hire soldiers, the financial and manpower of Youzhou is limited after all. If the court of the Song State puts some pressure on Youzhou and restrains some of the Youzhou soldiers. At the same time, hiring heroes in Cangzhou, Qingzhou, Hejian Prefecture and other places close to Youzhou, you can make Youzhou unable to dispatch reinforcements to Lushun. With the troops stationed in Lushun alone, our Daliao can pile up the city with their lives!"

"Okay!" Yelu Yanxi clapped her face, "Ma Qing is indeed a pillar of the court!"

He looked around the ministers in the hall, "Who can go to Kaifeng Prefecture?"

Yelu Yan went out to ask for an order and said, "I am willing to go to Kaifeng."

"Okay, then I'll have to do the Privy Council of the Southern Court!" Yelu Yanxi turned his gaze to the Grand Duke Ding again, "My Lord, I ordered you and Gao Yongchang to be the chief and deputy chiefs, and to take 80,000 Bohai athletes as pioneers, leave Chenzhou, Ningzhou, and Fuzhou, along the east coast of the Liaohai (Bohai) and head south, and directly below the Lushun Chengguan."

"I received the order." Even though the Grand Duke Ding was unwilling to do so, he didn't dare to say anything, so he had to lead the troops to go first.

"Ma Qing," Yelu Yanxi looked at the horse people again, "Your Fengxian army will follow me, and after the sacrifice to the sky and earth on the first day of July, we will send troops to Chenzhou first."

This time, Ma Renwang complained in his heart, but he still had to receive the order respectfully.

Yelu Yanxi continued: "I will send an order to Ma Zhi again, asking him to strengthen the coastal defense and never let the Youzhou army land on the sea and harass it. Especially at the mouth of the Liaohe River, you must protect it closely and not be slackened!"

The Liao River in this era is not as narrow as later generations, with wide rivers, abundant water flows, and extremely strong navigation capabilities. Wu Haogu's fleet can drive in! I really don't know how to protect Wu Haogu's artillery battleships with Ma Zhi?

Maybe I could send an envoy to tell Wu Haogu that he would never drive the fleet into the Liaohe River...

However, Ma Zhi's envoy did not immediately rush to Youzhou to report the news. Because it was only after a while that he learned from the Bohai Army passing by Chenzhou that the Emperor of the Liao Dynasty would go south to attack Lushun Prefecture and would also station in Chenzhou!

This time, the Liao army did a good job of keeping confidentiality! Ma Renwang, Dagong Ding, Gao Yongchang and others with heavy troops in their hands were closely monitored before leading their troops out of Liaoyang Prefecture. So the news was kept secret until early July, and when Ma Zhi's envoy arrived in Tianjin, nearly half of the July of the second year of Zhenghe had passed.

Just as Wu Haogu learned that Lushun Prefecture was about to be attacked by "millions of Liao soldiers", Yelu Yanxi's envoy Yelu Yan also arrived at Kaifeng Prefecture, the prosperous city of the Song Dynasty's top sanity!

The troops attack the plan, and the second is to attack the diplomatic relations!

Yelu Yanxi, who has become a good general for a long time, has been really good this time, at least with a good start.
