The Liao Kingdom was established during the wars of the Five Dynasties. At this time, it had a population of nine million and an army of eight hundred thousand.
The Khitans were flourishing in the northeast. After Yelu Abaoji unified the Khitan tribes, he founded the country in 907 and gradually unified the vast area in the north of the border. The country was named Khitan. In 916 AD, the reign name Shencai was established. In 938, the country was changed to Liao, and in 983, it was called Khitan again, and in 1066, it was still called Liao.
During the reign of Yelu Deguang, he helped Shi Jingtang, the Emperor of the Later Jin Dynasty, seized the throne and received the Sixteen Prefectures as rewards, and the power entered the Great Wall again.
Under the influence of the advanced system of the Central Plains, the Liao Dynasty gradually transitioned to feudalization.
In order to adapt to the conditions of different ethnic groups and different production methods in the territory, the Liao Dynasty established a north-south official system, and governed according to customs. Most of the subordinates of the King of the North Court were northern nomadic tribes, while the subordinates of the King of the South Court were mostly farming.
The Liao Dynasty fought with the Northern Song Dynasty, and the Northern Song Dynasty was defeated and signed the Chanyuan Alliance. The two sides maintained a stable relationship for a long time.
At this time, after the King of Chu and his son seized the throne, the vitality of the Liao Kingdom was greatly damaged. Some nobles were favored by Yelu Honglie, and undercurrents were surging.
Due to the problems of the Liao system, discrimination and hatred against the Han people have led to the continuous intensification of social conflicts. With the support of Hangu, green forests in various places have been in a turbulent uprising.
The Liao lord Yelu Hongji first learned that Zhao Xu of the Southern Dynasty seized power, and Hu Qiye controlled the power, and carried out new policies to enrich the country and strengthen the army. At first, he thought he would follow Wang Anshi's old path, so he was overjoyed and wanted to send troops to attack China, but was persuaded by Xiao Feng.
Xiao Feng said: I think that at the beginning of sending troops, I need to find out the situation of the enemy country and then send troops.Now I heard that the Song Dynasty was training troops and horses, and wanted to invade the territory.If our army fought against the Song Dynasty and the Western Xia took the opportunity to attack our rear, our country would be in danger.It is better to spy on China's virtual reality first, and then discuss whether to send troops.
Yelu Hongji secretly thought that what Xiao Feng said was reasonable and said: What the King of Chu said was reasonable. He went to the Southern Dynasties to do more details, and then he acted after inquiring about his strength and movements.
A few days later, detailed news came that after Hu Qiye took power, he reformed the military system and updated his military equipment, and his combat effectiveness was greatly improved. Now he joined forces with Xixia to join Chen's army on the border, and he didn't know what the trend was.
A few days later, the envoy from the Song Dynasty came, not only did he not have any tribute in the year, but he wanted to seek the Sixteen Prefectures.
Yelu Hongji was furious when he heard this and wanted to kill the envoy to establish his authority. Xiao Feng stopped him and said: Although our soldiers in the Great Liao Dynasty are elite, the population of the Great Song Dynasty is more than ten times more than that of our country.After Hu Qiye took power, he recruited soldiers and implemented a rotating military system.The strong and strong men in the middle of the country were summoned to the army and rotated once a year. In this way, the total strength of the United Nations in the Song Dynasty was more than four million, and even the number of rotating troops was more than that of our country.If the battle starts lightly, the Song Dynasty's troops will be more than 4 million, and they can all go to the battlefield to fight.Our country will use an army of 800,000 to face four million troops, which is very likely to be in danger.Your Majesty might as well stop your anger and watch the changes in tense.Although Zhao Xu is young, he is full of energy.Hu Qiye has outstanding abilities and will inevitably have conflicts with Zhao Xu in the long run.If the conflict between the two people intensifies and suddenly send troops, the results will definitely be significant.
When Yelu Hongji heard this, he felt that what Xiao Feng saw was indeed a safe plan and let the envoy go back, but he would never agree to the return of the sixteen states.
Yu Xuyu's pseudonym was Hu Qiye at that time. He had no hope for the time he was seeking back to the Sixteen Prefectures, but he did not have to pay annual tribute every year, which also made him a national hero in the eyes of the people of the Song Dynasty.
Yelu Hongji finally waited for the change of dynasties and replaced it with Xuyu to establish the Dazhong Dynasty. However, at this time, China's military strength was more powerful than during the Song Dynasty. Although there was chaos in China in the first year, Yelu Hongji summoned the generals to discuss, and the generals analyzed the situation, but they did not dare to take the initiative to attack.
Yelu Hongjixin was not dead, so he ordered Xiao Feng to station in Nanjing and wait for an opportunity to attack.
Then he went to Nanjing in person, trying to observe the appearance of Chinese soldiers nearby, so he decided to stop the army.
At this moment, he was light and simple, leading three thousand armored soldiers to travel southward. In view of the last rebellion of King Chu, the officers and soldiers who remained in Shangjing were personally led by Empress Xiao.
There were another 100,000 guards, and then they came south in batches.
A day later, the imperial guard came outside Nanjing.
On that day, Xiao Feng was taking more than 20 guards to hunt in the northern suburbs. When he heard that the Liao Lord had suddenly arrived, he rode northward and saw Bai Yao Huang Gai from afar. He immediately dismounted, stepped forward, and bowed to the ground.
Yelu Hongji laughed and even got off the horse and said: You and I are the king and the ministers, and we are actually the closest, so why should we perform this great gift?
He immediately helped him up and asked with a smile: What a beast?
Xiao Feng said: It was so cold that the wild beasts had avoided the south. After half a day of fighting, they only hit some green wolves and deer, and it was nothing big.
Yelu Hongji was also very fond of hunting and said: Let’s go to the southern suburbs to look for it.
Xiao Feng said: The southern suburbs bordered the Southern Dynasty. I am afraid that the two countries will lose harmony and strictly prohibited my subordinates from hunting.
Yelu Hongji frowned slightly and asked: Then don’t you build grass valley anymore?
Xiao Feng said: I have banned it.
Yelu Hongji said: What's the harm in our meeting in Nanjing today? If we make an exception?
Xiao Feng said: Yes!
With the sound of the horn, Yelu Hongji and Xiao Feng rode together, bypassing the Nanjing city wall and heading straight south.
The three thousand armored soldiers followed.
After more than twenty miles of galloping, the soldiers shouted in unison, dispersed from the east and around, and surrounded them like fans. They heard the neighing horses and barking dogs, making a sound, slowly surrounding them, and a group of foxes and rabbits caught in the grass.
Yelu Hongji was unwilling to shoot these little beasts. After waiting for a long time, there were no giant beasts such as bears and tigers. He was disappointed when he suddenly heard a cry. More than ten men rushed over from the southeast corner, looking at the woodcutter hunters and the like in the Southern Dynasty.
The Liao soldiers could not drive away the wild beasts. Knowing that the emperor was not happy, they happened to surround the dozen southerners. They immediately shouted and drove them away and forced them to the emperor's horse.
Yelu Hongji smiled and said: Good come!
He pulled open the iron-tied bow with gold and jade inlaid, and took the steps of the carved feather wolf-toothed arrow, and shot the pearl arrows, and sniffed a few times. The arrows were shot without any slightest, and six southerners were shot down in an instant.
The other southerners were so scared that they fled out of the sky. They turned around and fled, but they stabbed the Liao soldiers with spears and drove them back.
Xiao Feng couldn't bear it and shouted: Your Majesty!
Yelu Hongji smiled and said: I will leave the rest for you, I will see your magic arrow!
Xiao Feng shook his head and said: These people are not guilty, please spare them!
Yelu Hongji smiled and said: There are too many people in the south, so you have to kill them all, and peace will be achieved in the world.It is a sin for them to be a Southerner.
As he said that, he shot one arrow after another, and one pot of arrows could not be shot halfway. None of the more than ten Han people were spared. Some died immediately, and some shot into the belly. They were unable to extinguish themselves for a moment and fell to the ground and moaned.
The Liao soldiers cheered loudly and shouted: Long live!
If Xiao Feng wanted to stop him, he would be able to knock down the Emperor's feather arrow, but he would openly shave the emperor's face in front of the soldiers. It could be said that he was ruthless, but a look of disapproval on his face was involuntarily revealed.
Yelu Hongji smiled and said: How about it?
Just as he was about to collect his bow, he suddenly saw a horse riding over the hunting encirclement and galloping by.
When Yelu Hongji saw the man on horseback dressed in Han costumes, he didn't ask any more questions. He bent his bow and arrow, and shot at the man with a whirlwind arrow.
The man stretched out his hand, raised two fingers, and held the feather arrow.
At this time, Yelu Hongji's second arrow came again. The man stretched out his left hand and held the second arrow. Yelu Hongji's arrow shot in succession, and the back arrow was connected with the front arrow, almost connecting the head and tail.
But he fired quickly, and the other party also caught it quickly. In an instant, one shot seven arrows and the other caught seven arrows.
The personal guards of the Liao empress shouted loudly, each erecting spears to block the Liao lord, for fear that people would be shocked.
At that time, the two were not far apart. Xiao Feng saw the person who came clearly and was shocked. He hurriedly rode his horse forward and shouted: The person who came is the common name, otherwise he would kill him.
Those who are on the road are only over 20 years old, with a magnificent appearance, but have a chic temperament, which is heartbreaking.
The immediately rider laughed and threw the seven wolf-toothed arrows he caught to the guards, saying: You can only attack and kill civilians who do not have martial arts skills. If you fight with Chinese soldiers, you may not be able to win.
Yelu Hongji was furious when he heard this, and more than 3,000 guards also made a loud noise.
The man said: If you don’t accept it, I will rectify the elite troops when I go back and I will fight.
Yelu Hongji came here this time with the main purpose of seeing how much China's combat effectiveness has been improved. With Xiao Feng, the number one warrior of the Liao Kingdom, by his side, he was not worried about any accidents.
The Khitans were flourishing in the northeast. After Yelu Abaoji unified the Khitan tribes, he founded the country in 907 and gradually unified the vast area in the north of the border.
