On the nameless hillside three miles outside the camp of the Southern Liao Army, Li Liangzuo and Yelu Chongyuan sat opposite, Li Liangzuo proposed to sign a secret agreement with Yelu Chongyuan on Datong, after all, Li Liangzuo did not want to destroy the relationship with the Northern Liao, Li Liangzuo hoped that he would find a balance between the Northern and Southern Liao, and could control the Liao civil war in his own hands.
"Secret covenant" Yelu Chongyuan asked Li Liangzuo; "Why did Emperor Xia sign a secret agreement with me?"
Li Liangzuo said: "Datong can be said to be impregnable in the hands of our army now, if I give it up, I am afraid that the people in the country and the soldiers below will not agree."
Yelu Chongyuan nodded and said, "Emperor Xia's worries are not unreasonable, but how does Emperor Xia plan to withdraw from Datong?"
Li Liangzuo said with a smile: "This is simple, as long as your army can show a flaw, I can bring people into the city, but I will lead the Xia army to withdraw from Datong." ” Yelu Chongyuan nodded and said, "Then where does Emperor Xia plan to enter the city, and where does he plan to leave the city?"
Li Liangzuo said to Yelu Chongyuan: "I will lead the army into the city from the west gate tonight, and the army will leave the city from the south gate in three days, and I hope that your army will give you more support at that time." ” Yelu Chongyuan swore an oath: "Although Emperor Xia can rest assured, I will definitely handle it truthfully" Then the two had a detailed consultation on the terms of the secret agreement, and the two of them talked for more than an hour before they determined the final terms, in fact, the terms to be discussed are nothing more than their respective interests, as a famous iron rooster, Li Liangzuo this time in order to reach a secret agreement as soon as possible actually took the initiative to pluck his own hair, and gave up part of his interests.
After the two finished the discussion, they immediately ordered someone to record all the terms, and then Li Liangzuo and Yelu Chongyuan signed their names and stamped the national seal, so that this secret agreement has legal benefits, although the secret agreement was signed, but Li Liangzuo and Yelu Chongyuan did not relax their vigilance in their hearts, and both of them had their own small abacus in their hearts.
After the secret agreement was signed, the two of them each returned to their own camp, and Li Liangzuo immediately began to arrange the matter of entering Datong after returning to the camp, at this time Xiao Zhuozi wanted Li Liangzuo to remind: "Your Majesty, do you really plan to bring troops into Datong according to the agreement with Yelu Chongyuan?"
"Of course, you think I'm talking about playing," Li Liangzuo laughed.
Xiao Zhuozi immediately objected to Li Liangzuo: "Your Majesty, the slave thinks it is impossible, Yelu Chongyuan is insidious and cunning, if he ambushes the soldiers halfway, then don't we send it to the tiger's mouth ourselves."
Li Liangzuo said to Xiao Zhuozi: "I have thought about this problem, so I want you to send someone to sneak into Datong in a while, tell Li Yi the news that we entered through the West Gate, and let him support him immediately in case of an accident." ” "Yes, the minion commands."
Xiao Zhuozi immediately bowed down and said.
After Xiao Zhuozi left, Li Liangzuo immediately sent someone to find Liang Gewei, and Liang Gewei immediately saluted Li Liangzuo after he came in: "The last general will see Your Majesty." ” "Get up," Li Liangzuo said lightly; "Tonight, the army is going to enter Datong City, you don't want to go, I really leave you with 3,000 soldiers and horses to deal with outside, these 3,000 people are not allowed to be stationed in Jiaoshan, you have to find another place by yourself, before the army in my city leaves Datong, you can't let the Southern Liao Army find out."
In the end, Li Liangzuo advised: "Lead the army alone and be smart, don't fall into other people's ways when the time comes, you don't know it." ” "Yes, the last general understands, please rest assured."
Liang Gewei said to Li Liangzuo.
It can be seen that Li Liangzuo is not particularly at ease with Yelu Chongyuan, in order to prevent accidents, Li Liangzuo has placed one or two insurances for himself; On the other side, Yelu Chongyuan also had the same worries, after all, Li Liangzuo was too abnormal this time, and he always made Yelu Chongyuan feel that this was a pit, so Yelu Chongyuan sent someone to find Yelu Mu and Zheng Hun and told the two of them about their worries.
"Father, according to the opinion of the sons, it is better for us to strike first, set up an ambush on Li Liangzuo's road after all, and wipe out Li Liangzuo's army in the city, it is best to capture Li Liangzuo alive, so that the Western Xia Kingdom is really leaderless."
Yelu Mu said to Yelu Chongyuan.
Yelu Chongyuan did not immediately reply to Yelu Mu, but raised his eyes to look at Zheng Hun who was standing aside, Zheng Hun and Yelu Chongyuan's eyes met, Zheng Hun immediately avoided Yelu Chongyuan's gaze and said: "Your Majesty Weichen thinks that His Royal Highness King Yan is right, if this move can really succeed, we will completely solve a big problem" Hearing Zheng Hun say this, Yelu Mu was very happy, although Ye Lu Mu looked down on Zheng Hun a little, but Zheng Hun as the prime minister of the Southern Liao Kingdom, Ye Lu Chongyuan's confidant and adviser, naturally has a lot of advantages, in Ye Lu Mu's opinion, his ideas can be affirmed by Zheng Hun, that is to say, this proposal is still very good.
Zheng Hun continued to say to Yelu Chongyuan: "But Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that King Yan's proposal should be slightly modified; Wechen suggested that the ambush be timed three days later; There are several advantages to this, first: it can make Li Liangzuo relax his vigilance, second: it can annihilate all the Xia army and Northern Liao army near Datong with one body, and third: when the Xia army and the Northern Liao alliance army go out of the city, they will inevitably carry a large amount of capital and people, so that the combat effectiveness of the coalition army will be greatly weakened, which is very beneficial to us."
Zheng Hun revised Yelu Mu's proposal, although Ye Lu Mu was not very happy, but he had to admit that Zheng Hun could say that he had modified this proposal to the extreme, and he also agreed very much with Zheng Hun's modification proposal Yelu Chongyuan, for Yelu Chongyuan, if he could get rid of Li Liangzuo, then he would not be far from unifying Da Liao, after all, the reason why Northern Liao was able to survive for a long time, and the gradual recovery of vitality and the support of Western Xia were inseparable.
Late at night, Li Liangzuo led 10,000 heavily armored knights to leave the Jiaoshan camp, on the way Liang Gewei led 3,000 people to disappear into the vast night, Li Liangzuo led 7,000 heavy armored knights to the west gate of Datong galloped away, because the two sides had already agreed, Li Liangzuo's march can be said to be extremely smooth, along the way it can be said that there is no resistance at all.
When Li Liangzuo came to the west gate of Datong, the city gate was slowly opening with a squeak, and the army swarmed in for a while, Li Liangzuo entered the city and went straight to the Ruyang Palace, at this time Ruyang King Yeluren had already been waiting, in order to ensure the safety of Li Liangzuo, Li Yi has been guarding Li Liangzuo's side since entering the city.
"Xiao Wang meets His Majesty the Emperor of Western Xia."
Yeluren, the king of Ruyang, bowed first.
Li Liangzuo smiled and said: "The prince is quick and polite, why should you be so polite between you and me." ” Yeluren smiled first and said, "Your Majesty has been in the dust all the way, let's go into the house and rest."
"Okay."
Li Liangzuo also strode towards the Ruyang Palace, while walking inside, Li Liangzuo looked around, although on the surface Li Liangzuo was enjoying the scenery, but in fact, he really observed the topography and buildings in the palace, which is a habit that Li Liangzuo has developed since childhood, and this habit can often save Li Liangzuo's life in the most dangerous time.
