Under the leadership of the school captain, Yeluyue quickly came to the Yong'an Mountain camp of the Northern Liao Army, which can no longer be described as a camp, when Yeluyue saw the Yong'an Mountain camp again, he found that this was no longer what he saw a few years ago; To be precise, the Yong'an Mountain camp is no longer a big camp, but a military town, a mountain city, the whole city is located on the top of a mountain, three sides are cliffs, there is a river under the cliff, only one side is the road leading to the mountain, this is a good place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
After entering the city, Yeluyue's heart was even more surprised, although the scale of the entire Yong'an City was not very large, all kinds of living facilities were very complete, and a large number of grain, grass and weapons were hoarded; Although Ye Luyue didn't know how much Li Liangzuo knew about Yong'an Mountain City, Ye Luyue believed that Li Liangzuo who saw these things he saw must not know that once the two armies went to war, the Northern Liao Army had far and continuous material support, and the possibility of the Xia army's defeat was very high.
Under the leadership of the school captain, Yeluyue came to Yeluhongji's big tent, and saw his father again, Yeluyue's nose couldn't help but be sore, Yeluyue knelt on the ground and asked Yeluhongji to say goodbye: "Erchen to see his father, long live my father, long live, long live." ” Yelu Hongji trembled his hands, and said to Yelu Yue with tears in his eyes: "Yue'er, get up quickly." ” "The ministers meet Her Royal Highness the Princess."
And all the ministers also saluted to Jeruyu.
Back in Northern Liao, Yeluyue called back her previous name, Yelutri, Yue'er is Yeluyue's milk name, so Yeluyue was canonized as the princess of Yueguo, Yeluyue and Yeluhongji have been homely for a long time, and Yeluhongji also asked the imperial kitchen to make Yeluyue's favorite dishes when she was a child, and the father and daughter who have not seen each other for several years are particularly cordial.
After drinking and eating, Yelu Hongji asked Yelu Yue: "Yue'er, why did you come back at this time, did Li Liangzuo send you to be a lobbyist?"
” "Father, you misunderstood, the child just misses you and wants to come back to see."
Yeluyue lied.
Yelu Hongji said unhappily: "You don't have to lie, my father has seen all this clearly at such an old age, Li Liangzuo treacherously, and took advantage of the time when I conquered and lost land, and actually sent troops to seize my central grassland." ” Yelu Yue comforted Yelu Hongji and said: "Father, don't you understand that if it weren't for Emperor Xia sending troops to the central grassland, I'm afraid that the central grassland would have fallen into the hands of the Northern Blocking Division, and my father should understand what it means for my Great Liao once the Northern Blocking Division gets the Central Grassland."
Yelu Hongji was speechless by Yelu Yue for a while, and Yelu Yue continued to say to Yelu Hongji: "Father, Emperor Xia is bound to win the eastern grassland this time, if the two armies really go to war, it will not be beneficial to both Father and Emperor Xia, rather than this, Father Emperor should exchange the entire eastern grassland for something more substantial." ” Yelu Hongji frowned and asked, "What do you want my father to exchange for the only place to live?"
Yelu Yue looked at Yelu Hongji very cautiously and said: "Use the eastern grassland in exchange for the Western Xia to send troops to help my father conquer Zhongjing, Nanjing, and Tokyo. ” Yelu Yue can feel Yelu Hongji's obvious heart shock, for Yelu Hongji, he dreams of subduing these places, now most of the entire Xijing Road and Shangjing Road have fallen into the hands of Li Liangzuo, it is impossible to recover these places, and now Yelu Hongji can recover only Zhongjing, Nanjing and Tokyo Three Provinces, these three places have been the core areas of Liao's economy since the establishment of Taizu of Liao, and these three places have gathered 80% of Liao's population and 90% of their wealth.
If Yelu Hongji can recover the above areas, it will be equivalent to regaining control of the entire Liao State.
To tell the truth, Yelu Hongji was really moved, because only by recovering Zhongjing, Nanjing, and Tokyo can he talk about the confrontation with Western Xia in the future, and now this opportunity is in front of Yelu Hongji, after careful consideration, Yelu Hongji said to Yelu Yue: "Yue'er, you let me think about it." ” "Where did the minister retire first."
Yelu Yue said to Yelu Hongji.
After Yelu Yue left, Yelu Hongji immediately summoned Yelu Yixin, Yelu Renxian, Xiao Yuanshan and many other ministers to discuss this matter; At the same time, in the camp of the Xia Army at the foot of Yong'an Mountain, in Li Liangzuo's Chinese army tent, all the generals gathered, and in front of everyone was a topographic sand table of Yong'an Mountain, and the topographic map around Yong'an Mountain was hung around, and Li Liangzuo stood at the top of the sand table.
After glancing at everyone, Li Liangzuo said to everyone: "Let's talk about how this battle should be fought."
Sun Zhen first said: "Your Majesty, from the topography point of view, it is very unfavorable for us, the Northern Liao army occupies the absolute commanding heights, can dive and sprint against us, and the sprint speed formed by its war horses is much faster than ours, even if our army wins this battle, it will be a tragic victory." ” "I still need to say it," An Qinggui said; "The most critical question now is what way to lure the enemy out, if they have been cowering in the mountain city, as long as they take the mountain road, even if there are millions of troops, they will not be able to attack."
"That's what you're going to say."
Li Liangzuo asked with a dark face.
An Qinggui immediately said: "Of course not, since we can't attack from the front, then why don't we try to attack from behind" When Li Liangzuo heard this, he immediately became interested and said, "Tell me what you think." ” An Qinggui pointed to the cliff behind the Yong'an Mountain City and said: "We can send elite soldiers to climb the cliff from the back mountain, the number of people is not too much, as long as hundreds of people are enough, after entering the city, as long as the grain and grass are burned, we can force the Northern Liao army to go down the mountain to fight a decisive battle with us." ” "That's a good idea."
Li Liangzuo said.
Then Li Liangzuo said: "General An, but have you thought about it, the cliff of this back mountain can be a vertical cliff, and under the cliff is a big river, all the people who participate in this operation must have the determination to die, if there are too few people going up, it will not work; Not to mention if it is discovered by the enemy. ” "Your Majesty, since there will be casualties in a war, since we have chosen this path, we should not be afraid of death; The last general asked for the order to personally lead the troops.
An Qinggui asked Li Liangzuo for his life.
"These are all the elites of my Great Xia Kingdom" Li Liangzuo said this, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, but walked outside the big tent with his hands behind his back, looking up at the starry sky.
In fact, Li Liangzuo also knew that this was the best course of action so far, but Li Liangzuo had not made up his mind for a long time, because this operation was too dangerous; And Li Liangzuo doesn't know whether it's worth it, these hundreds of elites are the results of Li Liangzuo's careful cultivation for several years, if nothing else, these people will become middle-level and upper-level officers of the Xia Army in the future, this is the seed of hundreds of people who are the future generals of the Xia Army, once these people are wiped out, the generals of the Xia Army may be broken, which is a terrible existence for an army.
Li Liangzuo didn't make up his mind for a long time, because he didn't want to use Xia Jun's future to make this bet, as the territory of Western Xia became wider and wider, and the wealth of Western Xia became more and more, Li Liangzuo became cautious in doing things, and he was not afraid of wearing shoes barefoot like before, because the person who wore shoes now was Li Liangzuo was Xixia, and Li Liangzuo's identity was slowly changing unintentionally.
