On the hills east of the northwest foot of Laotie Mountain in Muyang City, it is very close to Yangtou Wa, less than 400 steps away.
Muyang City is said to be a city, but in fact it is not even an earth city in China, so it can be called a fortress.
It is only two hundred and fifty steps in circumference, one foot high, and has only one gate.
A fortress as large as Muyang City was already at the level of a city in the Liao Kingdom, but the cities in the Liao Kingdom were so few and small.
The Liao Kingdom had a vast territory, but except for the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, most of the other places under its rule were nomadic, fishing and hunting peoples.
These nomadic, fish-hunting peoples need to move frequently with the seasons, so cities are of little use to these peoples.
This also resulted in the fact that the land under the rule of the Liao Kingdom did not have as many cities as there were in China.
Also because there were few cities in the Liao Kingdom, they were not large in scale, and most of them were based on a nomadic economy, so the Liao Kingdom was unable to develop such prosperous cities as Tokyo and Hangzhou in the Song Dynasty.
Comparing Dadingfu, the capital of the Liao Kingdom, and Tokyo, the capital of the Song Dynasty, in terms of modern cities, the difference between Tshwane and New York is undoubtedly the same.
There are some people who don't want to live in a bustling metropolis, and there are a few people who want to live in Tucheng.
It is because of such a huge difference that even Emperor Daozong of the Liao Kingdom could not help but have the desire to live in China for future generations.
At the end of Yin hour on November 17th, it is the time when a person is most asleep.
Braving the cold wind and quietly marching for a bowl of tea, Zhang Heng and two thousand navy sailors arrived at Muyang City.
The Liao soldiers in Muyang City thought there was a water fortress, and the 10 Liao soldiers on guard were nestled safely under the female wall, relying on each other and sleeping around each other.
Through the moonlight, I observed Shepherd City carefully for a while.
Zhang Heng confirmed that there was indeed no one guarding Muyang City.
He smiled and made a gesture.
Soon a few capable men came up.
Zhang Heng whispered to his men: "There is no one at the top of the city now, which is convenient for us.
Later we will divide into two teams and go up from both sides of the city gate archery tower.
It is best if we can kill the guards quietly.
If not, then there is no need to stay."
Hands, remember that you must control the beacon tower and the city gate.
You can't let them spread the news, and you can't leak it alone."
The subordinate nodded and said: "I understand."
"Very good, do it," Zhang Heng said softly.
Zhang Heng made a gesture, and his two thousand men immediately separated, and each side of the city quietly walked towards the two sides of the city gate with a thousand soldiers and horses.
The navy sailors moved very lightly, holding back their steps and slowly approaching.
When he arrived at the place, Zhang Heng observed the situation on the top of the city, and then said softly: "Get ready, get up."
Zhang Heng hugged one end of the long log tightly, and six strong soldiers hugged the other end of the long log.
They used their strength at the same time to prop up the long log.
Zhang Heng was immediately sent into the air.
Taking advantage of the height of the long log, Zhang Heng jumped lightly, touched the ground with his feet, and immediately rolled up to the top of the city.
As soon as he arrived at the top of the city, Zhang Heng immediately hid in the shadow of the female wall and saw that the sleeping guards were not disturbed.
Zhang Heng breathed a sigh of relief, took out a thin rope from his waist and threw it down, pulled up a ladder and gently fixed it on the female wall.
The navy sailors below the city immediately climbed up slowly along the soft ladder.
Just like this, nearly thirty navy sailors came up on both sides of the city.
The Liangshan soldiers below the city were still slowly coming up.
Zhang Heng leaned over and looked at the Liao soldiers sleeping in each other's arms 70 steps away, and said softly: "There are only 10 Liao soldiers at the top of the city.
Deal with these people first, and then open the door."
City gate, let the men enter the city."
Nearly thirty sailors heard Zhang Heng's order and followed him closely, quietly approaching the sleeping Liao soldiers.
Seeing all Zhang Heng's fingers falling, they stepped forward at the same time, and the knives in their hands immediately penetrated their vital parts.
Many Liao soldiers died before they even opened their eyes.
He pressed his fingers on their necks to confirm that they were dead.

It's almost five o'clock at this time, and in a little while, it will be time for these Liao soldiers to get up.
Zhang Heng said: "Hurry down to the city and open the city gate."
Although Zhang Heng was very careful, the city gate had been damaged by years of wind and rain.
When pushed, it makes a squeaking sound.
This sound seemed extremely loud in the quiet night.
Several Liao soldiers who were sleeping lightly heard the familiar sound of the city gate opening, and they thought it was time to get up and prepare for duty.
With their sleepy eyes open, they shook their companions awake.
Just as they yawned and opened the door, ready to go out, they were greeted by arrows that shone coldly.
This Liao soldier had just woken up and had no idea that the Liangshan army had already entered the city.
Facing the sudden arrows, he had no defense at all.
At close range, the arrow hit his chest and penetrated directly through his chest.
He fell to the ground, convulsed several times and died.
Several Liao soldiers who were stretching in the room saw their cold companions lying on the ground.
After being stunned for a moment, they suddenly screamed.
"Ah, the enemy is coming in" Hearing the shouts of the Liao soldiers, Zhang Heng knew that there was no concealment anymore.
He shouted immediately: "Kill with me and control the beacon tower.
They must not let the news out."
Muyang City is a small city built because more and more Han people moved to the Liaodong Peninsula from Shandong, Hebei and other places to engage in reclamation and development.
It is a residential area for ordinary people.
But its greater use is to use beacon fire to notify the entire territory of Suzhou that enemies have attacked the coastal warning castles ashore from the sea.
Zhang Heng wanted to conquer Muyang City overnight, just because he didn't want them to let out the news that the enemy had landed, so as not to affect the marshal's next actions.
Upon hearing the order, the hundreds of Liangshan soldiers who entered the city first immediately followed Zhang Heng and charged towards the beacon tower.
There are three beacon towers in Muyang City, two on the east and west city walls, and one inside the city.
The city head has been controlled, and what Zhang Heng wants to rob is the beacon tower in the city.
Sharp shouts could not be heard in Shepherd City.
"What's going on?
What's going on?"
Shepherd City guard Yu Jianluo was awakened by the shouts outside the room.
He didn't even have time to put on his clothes.
He grabbed a knife and ran out of the room.
The scene in front of him was completely unbelievable.
The entire city was in chaos, and enemies of unknown origin could be seen everywhere.
"The general is in trouble, the enemy has entered the city."
The deputy general hurried to Yu Jianluo and shouted in panic.
When I saw Lu Wen, I wanted to slap the deputy general.
I was not blind, so of course I knew that the enemy had entered the city.
Ignoring the regular meeting, the lieutenant general, I saw Lu Wan hurriedly shouted: "Quickly, blow the horn and gather all your men.
By the way, light the beacon quickly.
Tell the Suzhou Jiedushi Master that the enemy soldiers have come ashore.
Please invite him."
Hurry up and send someone for support.”
Hearing the defender's cry, many Liao soldiers who were panicked by the attack gathered around him and began to fight back.
Zhang Heng rushed into the city and changed into a big sword.
He took the lead and charged into the crowd of Liao soldiers.
The big blades in his hands flew away, harvesting the lives of the Liao soldiers.

Just as Zhang Heng led the navy sailors to seize the beacon tower and hold on, he saw the Liao army commander running out of the room and saw him giving orders to gather the soldiers.
Zhang Heng knew that he must not let the Liao soldiers gather together, otherwise even if he could finally capture Muyang City, he would cause a lot of casualties to his own soldiers.
Zhang Heng immediately shouted: "Leave two hundred people here to guard, and the others will follow me to kill."
Zhang Heng led his troops to quickly kill Yu Jianlu.
Seeing Zhang Heng coming to attack, Yu Jianluo also knew that he must not let the enemy disperse the soldiers he had finally gathered.
Yu Jianluo also shouted: "Follow me and drive these enemies out."
"This city has been captured by me.
If you don't want to die, please surrender quickly."
Zhang Heng saw the enemy general rushing up and immediately struck the opponent with a knife in the head.
Zhang Heng habitually shouted to surrender.
Unfortunately, I saw that Lu On was from the former Bohai Sea and only knew Khitan and not Chinese.
He couldn't understand Zhang Heng's shouting at all.
I saw that Lu Wei was struck by Zhang Heng's sword and took half a step back.
But he stood firm and immediately counterattacked with the horizontal sword, trying to cut Zhang Heng into two pieces.
Seeing that his opponent was ignoring him, Zhang Heng was too lazy to talk nonsense and used the big knife in his hand instead.
"锵" "锵" With a roar, Zhang Heng spun around, dodged the enemy's sword, and then swept across with his broadsword.
Rushing past Yu Jian Lu Wei, Zhang Heng no longer looked at the enemy, "Your general is already dead.
If you don't catch him without mercy, you will be killed without mercy."
As Zhang Heng's shout fell, behind him I saw Lu Bo falling to the ground with a splash, and the blood gushing out stained the floor tiles red.
Seeing their general Yu Jian Luo being hacked to death by Zhang Heng, the Liao soldiers couldn't help but be horrified.
I saw that Lu Bo was a strong general in Liaodong, otherwise he would not have been able to get the position of guard of Muyang City.
Unexpectedly, he could not withstand a few rounds in front of the enemy general.
Seeing that the general was killed, more and more enemies poured into the city.
A Han among the Liao soldiers was the first to shout: "I am willing to surrender.
I am willing to surrender."
Hearing that this Liao soldier could speak Chinese, Zhang Heng shouted: "You are Han and can you speak Khitan?"
The Liao soldier hurriedly shouted: "The younger one is Han and can speak Khitan" "Tell them to surrender quickly.
Those who surrender will not be killed.
Anyone who dares to resist will be killed without mercy," Zhang Heng shouted.
When he heard about the reward, the Liao soldier immediately loudly persuaded his companions to surrender in Khitan language.
At first, some Liao soldiers were stubborn and did not dare to surrender, but those who continued to resist were mercilessly killed by the Liangshan army.
Seeing that this group of enemies was extremely ferocious, more and more weapons were still on the ground, shouting loudly: "We are willing to surrender, we are willing to surrender" Half an hour later, the shouts of killing in Muyang City fell silent.
The weapons of the surrendered Liao soldiers were confiscated, imprisoned in several rooms, and guarded by navy sailors.
As for the corpses of more than a hundred Liao soldiers who stubbornly resisted, the navy sailors packed them up and transported them out of the city, preparing to dig a hole and bury them to avoid the outbreak of plague.
It turns out that Yu Jianlu's house is in the main house.
After Zhang Heng asked Wenshi to write the letter, he stamped it with his general's seal and sealed it with ink pad.
After Zhang Heng handed the letter to the messenger, he shouted: "Report the victory to the marshal immediately, saying that Muyang City has been successfully captured by our army.
Please send troops to support the marshal as soon as possible."
"Yes, I will return to Dengzhou to report the news."
Zhang Heng continued to give instructions: "By the way, at the same time, I also reported to General Li Jun and asked him to bring all the equipment on the ship up.
Ensure the safety of Muyang City."
"clear" When the messenger soldier took the letter on the road, Zhang Heng called in the Liao soldier who knew Chinese and Khitan.
"May I have your name" "The little one's name is Han Sanding" "Han Sanding, our army is currently short of someone who understands Khitan and Chinese.
Join our army and I will reward you as the head of the capital."
Han Sanding did not answer immediately after hearing this, but asked: "Are you Song Jun?"

"No, we are Jiuwenlong Shi Jin, the great marshal of the world's soldiers and horses, and the soldiers and horses of Marshal Shi are" Zhang Heng shouted.
The Grand Marshal of the World's Soldiers and Horses, Jiuwenlong Shijin, Marshal Shi's Soldiers and Horses Listening to the long name, Han Sanding couldn't remember who this Nine-Patterned Dragon Shi Jin was.
He asked doubtfully: "Sir, is your marshal Jiu Wenlong Shi Jin the leader of which tribe?"
Zhang Heng hesitated for a moment, then replied: "Well, you can say that."
Han Sanding then asked: "How many people are there in your marshal's tribe?"
There is nothing wrong with Han Sanding to betray the Liao Kingdom and follow another force.
In the Liao Kingdom, a small tribe was annexed by a large tribe, and the people of the small tribe all submitted to the large tribe.
This is common sense.
Now that the Liao army has been defeated, he will naturally surrender in order to survive.
Of course, the premise is that the opponent who surrenders must be powerful.
Zhang Heng shouted arrogantly: "My marshal governs seven states with a population of one million and has 100,000 elite soldiers and generals under his command."
When Han Sanding heard that Zhang Heng's marshal Jiu Wenlong Shi Jin actually had 100,000 elite soldiers, he shouted in disbelief: "Seriously!"
"Why did I lie to you as a pawn?
In a few days, you will see my marshal personally leading the army.
Then you can witness it with your own eyes," Zhang Heng shouted disdainfully.
"The young one is willing to submit to the general and hold the whip and lead the horse for the general," Han Sanding hurriedly bowed and shouted.
"You have a lot of vision.
The city gate will be opened soon.
Please help appease the people.
Do it well and I won't let you lose."
Zhang Heng took out a tael of broken silver from his arms and threw it over.
Han Sanding's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw the silver.
He quickly caught the silver and shouted loudly: "Yes, I will do my best, thank you general, thank you general."
The fierce killings last night frightened the people outside Muyang City.
Wherever they dared to come out to investigate, they blocked the doors and windows with wooden boards and heavy objects.
Worryingly, we welcomed the belated sunshine in winter.
When the screams calmed down, the people cautiously looked out through the cracks in the doors and windows.
Hope to know what happened last night.
At the end of the day, Zhang Heng took the Liao soldiers into custody, and after completely taking over Muyang City, he sent Han Sanding to lead a group of patrols to maintain order, put up notices along the road, and loudly publicize.
The content of the notice was actually very simple.
It just said that the soldiers and horses of Jiuzhilong Shijin had occupied Muyang City and would liberate Suzhou.
The army will strictly observe discipline and do no harm to the people, so that the people should not be afraid and panic and continue their daily life and work.
Seeing that no one broke down the door of their house and rushed in to grab things, the people who needed to work to earn a living cautiously walked out of their homes one by one to check out the situation outside.
Seeing a black banner with the word "Shi" hanging high above the head of Muyang City, the people of the Liao Kingdom were very puzzled as to who this Nine-Patterned Dragon Shi Jin was:
