"Uncle Hui, Xiaoxian, use Empress, retro, and Tanfu, you should write with your heart, don't avoid taboos. Writing history is for future generations to learn from. If you avoid taboos, you will lose the value of writing history." Song Jiu said softly.

Wang Shu, Wang Zeng, Zhang Zhibai, Li Di and Lu Yijian came to the army one after another.

However, Zhao Heng did not grant him official position, and the court intended to restore Yanyun's education and transported many copies of books from the capital. Of course, there were many books in Youzhou that were not available in the court, and the two complemented each other.

At the suggestion of Song Jiu, five people led some Han scholars from Youzhou to write records of the rise and fall of all dynasties.

It does not write about ancient times, but has been written since the Qin Dynasty, including the Han Dynasty, the Three Kingdoms, the East and West Jin Dynasty, the Sixteen Kingdoms, the Song Dynasty, Qi, Liang and Chen Dynasty, the Northern Wei Dynasty, the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the Eastern Qi Dynasty, the Sui Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty, the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.

What I chose to write about is the rise and fall, such as Hu Hai, the second generation of Qin and Liu Bang, the Emperor Gaozu of Han, and then wrote about how to rest and rest in the entire Western Han Dynasty, giving Han Guangwu the wealth of using troops, how did Han Guangwu blindly use troops, and what were the disadvantages when Emperor Xuan of Han was in power again in the Han Dynasty.

Focusing on discussion and recording history as the supplement is to find out the reasons for the strength of each dynasty and the reasons for the decline.

They even asked them to truthfully record how Zhao Kuangyin replaced Chai Rong successfully, that is, military power is in control. In fact, this is also the real reason why Zhao Kuangyin released military power with the wine cup. It is not to prevent the Anshi Rebellion and separatist rule of the feudal states, but to prevent the rise of another Zhao Kuangyin.

The main reason for the study of history is these five civil officials. The cooperation and sorting of the original Liao civil officials and literati in Youzhou. These people are also the elites of Yan Yun. If they can participate, they can quickly win them into the Song Dynasty group, and at least they can promote the Song Dynasty in public opinion. Then, Yan Yun will definitely return to his heart a year or two.

Then Song Jiu, Kou Zhun, Wang Qinruo, Bi Shi'an and others often take time to read manuscripts. They put forward their own opinions and faithfully record each volume after the volume as a postscript.

This book has poor historical facts, but its purpose is very clear, which is for every emperor to read. It is for every upper-level scholar-official, learn from history, refer to them, make your own suggestions, and bring them to the governance of the country.

Even Zhao Heng often participates in the discussion.

Moreover, under the leadership of Song Jiu, many opinions were very pertinent. For example, Zhao Kuangyin replaced the Later Zhou Dynasty, which was the Five Dynasties, and it was impossible not to rely on generals who could fight. A famous general should be worth an army of 100,000.

When the Song Dynasty was unified, the Song Dynasty was highly prestige in the hearts of the people and became the truth of the world. Even if the generals were highly prestige, they could not easily replace and replace the country like the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.

This conclusion will increase the status of the general slightly.

However, the five people came to the north, and their main task was not to study history, but to be civil officials and governing various parts of the north. They would serve as the first civil officials of the five prefectures of Youzhou, and then let some military generals stay as soldiers and horses to deploy. In a few years, all parts of Youzhou Road will be stable, and at least most areas can be officially governed by the court.

Therefore, they were brought to the army and continued to study history.

If you are unfamiliar with the military, you cannot stay in the Northeast, especially in the Northeast that has been in the beginning of several years.

Several people were flattered, this is Zaipai.

Your future may be like a bright light in the sun...

Don’t think that staying in the army will have achievements in the future. Sima Guang also stayed in the prefecture for a while. Pang Ji also taught him personally. However, no matter how conservative Pang Ji was, would he do the task of returning the important fort that he had finally won to the Xixia people for free? Moreover, Pang Ji was known as Little Lu Yijian, and was also a firm reformist, but he was just a fine-tuned reformist. He could not be considered a conservative, so he offended the big guy and stepped down soon.

Then the country made Wen Yanbo, Han Qi, Ouyang Xiu and others mess up, forcing Song Shenzong and Wang Anshi to make great reforms.

This historical study process is actually a process of cultivating their values. This is the real cultivation.

A historical history is to train five famous history history for the Song Dynasty. However, these people dare not think so far.

Several people took the courage to start writing about Chai Rong's historical gains and losses in the Later Zhou Dynasty.

Song Jiu smiled slightly.

Zhang Qixian, Xiang Minzhong, Bi Shi'an, Wang Dan and Wang Qinruo and others each have their own advantages and disadvantages, but they can barely serve as prime ministers.

Then a few enlarged versions of Lu Yijian, Li Di, Zhang Zhibai, Wang Zeng and Wang Shu, so the country will not make major mistakes in the past forty years.

Forty years is enough to bring the Song Dynasty into the dream dynasty.

Cao Yong is back.

He deliberately brought two ambiguous opinions, and although his tone became tough, it caused confusion to the king and minister of the Liao Kingdom.

So the Liao Kingdom put forward its own opinions, and the two countries agreed that the Liao Kingdom abolished the Song Dynasty occupied the pass, including the Qianzhou area and the Yunzhong area. The territory of the two countries reached Juyanhai, Yinshan, and Yanshan and Qianzhou area in the east. To the north is the territory of the Liao Kingdom, and to the south is the territory of the Song Dynasty.

The two countries will never invade. They will tie stones to form monuments and stand on the border. The two countries will trade, set up and trade each other, and complement each other.

The two countries are called brothers, and Yelu Zhuangqingzun Zhao Heng is the eldest brother.

The Liao Kingdom was willing to market 50,000 horses to the Song Dynasty every year and expand the wool trade route at the same time. However, the Song Dynasty was not allowed to instigate the Bu Tatars and the Northeast Jurchen Bohai to resist the Liao Kingdom. At the same time, Sun Quanzhao and Shi Pu withdraw their troops.

This gave the Song Dynasty a foundation and gave the Liao Kingdom its own advantages.

If they had proposed it two months ago, they might immediately split several important officials of the Song Dynasty.

However, it was too late to mention it at this time. Feng Zheng opened his mouth and thought about the march routes of each army, but he didn't say anything after all.

Cao Yong went to Liaoying again.

This time his attitude became stronger and stronger. The Song Dynasty would agree to several other conditions, but he still disagrees with the territory. The court must obtain Changli County, Xuantu County and Liaodong County during the Cao Wei period.

The Liao Kingdom replied again, if that were the case, if Goryeo agreed to hand over their original Lelang County and Daofang County to the Song Dynasty, the Liao Kingdom would return three Cao Wei’s former counties to the Song Dynasty. This was impossible. At this time, the capital of Goryeo was in Kaijing (later Kaicheng), and Pyongyang’s status remained unabated. It was the Xijing area of ​​Goryeo. If two old counties were returned to the Song Dynasty, Goryeo would lose Xijing, and even the Song Dynasty’s territory was close to Kaijing. Although Kaijing was once captured by the Liao army, it was finally the capital of Goryeo.

Of course, the Liao Kingdom could not agree. The earliest areas outside the pass developed by the Liao Kingdom were the lower region of the Liaohe River and the coastal areas of the Bohai Bay. After handing over this place to the Song Dynasty, the Liao Kingdom lost its agricultural base, and it turned out to be a nomadic country again.

For the Liao nobles who were beginning to enjoy their happiness, it would undoubtedly be a nightmare.

However, this statement is just to delay time.

Hearing that the Song army was dispatched, Liaodong, Liaodong, also began to gather troops.

Whether it was a group of scattered soldiers or not, the number of troops reached nearly 50,000.

Then the army went west and fought with Shi Pu in the Liaohe River and was defeated by Shi Pu. However, Shi Pu was in his hands a group of infantry, unable to expand the results of the battle. After killing more than 7,000 Liao troops, the two armies were in a stalemate on the east and west banks of the Liaohe River.

This led Yelu Longqing to finally focus on this army.

While negotiating with the Song Dynasty, he secretly sent more than 10,000 cavalrymen to sneak up to the Liaohe River.

They all have their own small plans, but whoever plays well will be able to see the conclusion immediately.

...

"Hurry up, camp and rest. Jingsi, bring five thousand soldiers and immediately lead the horse to herd food, and then cut some grass to prepare to bring it with you."

Cao Wei gave orders one after another.

This is a battle full of imagination.

According to the original plan, Song Jiu planned to let Cao Wei lead the Xianping army to set off from the central Yanshan Mountains and face Zezhou, Liao Kingdom.

However, as the situation of the war changed, Li Jilong and Cao Wei obtained a large number of maps from the scouts, so they proposed to revise the plan.

That is to start from the Gubei exit under construction further west. Go around in a circle and then go from the Liuchuan army to the Zhongjing of Liao Kingdom. The disadvantage is that the disconnection that Song Jiu was worried about was too far away from the middle army. The advantage is that although he took some detours, many roads actually became flat, and there were many meadows and river valley pastures along the way, which could be moved forward lightly, and there were fewer mountain roads, so he could reach the city of Zhongjing at a faster speed.

And when it is far away, the people here become empty. It can be regarded as a surprise weapon.

When the Song Dynasty and the Liao Kingdom sent envoys to each other, Cao Wei sent troops to Gubeikou. This was a real light-weight advance, just like the Liao Kingdom.

Ten thousand war horses were selected from the captured Liao Dynasty war horses as pack horses. They carried simple luggage, simple siege equipment, and even the grain was pickled bacon. In addition, it became hot and the weather became hot, and the luggage became simple accordingly. Moreover, after passing Gubeikou, there were not as many mosquitoes as in the south, which brought more convenient conditions to light marching.

In just two days, the Song army waded through the Chaoli River and the upper reaches of the Luan River, came to the middle and upper reaches of the Liu River, waded through the Liu River again, and camped here for rest.

"General Cao, this place is indeed different from Hebei."

Wei Neng said.

"That's it." Cao Wei said. Although it was a hot day here, the weather became cooler, but it was different from the northwest. The climate was very dry and not as cool as here.

After resting for a night, more than 20,000 Xianping troops turned around, heading straight east instead of north, rushed to the northern foot of Mayu Mountain, and crossed the Sanfu River to the east to be the capital of the Liao Kingdom.

At this time, the Liao Kingdom sent a scout to Liuzhouhe to inquire.

There are less than 400 miles from Liuhe to Zhongjing, Liao Kingdom, and it is only more than 200 miles in a straight line. Moreover, there are few tall mountainous areas along the way, and for a light cavalry, it only takes a day and a half to travel.

If the troops were not strong enough, they could even arrive in Zhongjing in one day.

Just when the Liao Dynasty received the news and Yelu Longqing received the news, the Song army had arrived at Sanfu River.

Yelu Longqing went crazy, and the left-behind ministers in the Central Beijing of Liao Kingdom went crazy.

They hurriedly ordered Zhongjing to prepare for emergency preparations, and there was no way to divide the troops to rescue them. It was too late and it was not enough. As long as they divided the troops, I believe that countless Song troops on the other side of the river would cross the Liuzhou River and launch a fierce attack on them, and the consequences would be even worse.

At noon the next day, just when the Liao Kingdom was in chaos, Cao Wei's troops came to the city of Zhongjing.

Without camping, an attack was launched immediately.

Time is life. At this time, the Liao Kingdom’s Zhongjing troops were exhausted, and it was the weakest time. Once it was delayed, the Liao Kingdom sent a large army to support him, not afraid of them coming to support him, but fear that they would escape to Shangjing again after they protected Zhongjing City and fled to the vast northwest, which was the last thing the Song Dynasty wanted to see.

After all, the Liao Kingdom is now very prestige in the north. Once they are allowed to gather all the tribes, there are not many dangers to defend in the Shangjing and Zhongjing areas of Liao Kingdom, so wars are constantly happening in the north. There are no big rivers that can transport supply to Shangjing. Large-scale supply will be difficult, and where the battle will be a nightmare.

The destruction of the country was about to be imminent, and the military and civilians in Zhongjing fought tenaciously, which once caused great losses to the Song army.

However, Zhongjing City was not the original Youzhou City of the Liao Kingdom. Although it was built in the Song Dynasty Bian Jing, the city wall was far less tall than the Youzhou City Wall. At sunset, the Song army continued to attack the city head.

Yelu Pengu, the Liao minister who was left behind in Zhongjing, and Yang Ji, a Hanlin scholar, led all the ministers to surrender.

When the news reached the front line, Yelu Longqing was really crazy and ordered the three armies to withdraw their troops regardless of the consequences.

Cao Wei asked Lei You to finally lead a army to garrison Zhongjing City, and he led nearly 20,000 Xianping troops to fight south.

On the third day, the two armies met in Xiaoling River and began a battle.

The morale of the Liao army was basically destroyed. Although they left behind a rear army and dragged the main force of the Song army, they were not entangled by the main force of the Song army, but even the king had lost it, what morale would there be?

Cao Wei even calmly practiced the wolves tactics he practiced in the northwest.

He sent some of the most elite soldiers to ride the best war horses, treat them as scouts, and constantly harass them. Anyway, this place is still far from Zhongjing, and when the Liao army was in chaos, the army would kill them.

Then retreat, harass and kill again.

The Liao army was in a miserable way and was dragged by the Song army to a point of difficulty.

Finally, the main force of the Song army caught up by the Daling River.

With the sound of artillery, the Beiwei army of the Song army rushed into the Liao army camp first, and then the cavalry rushed forward. With the endless infantry, Cao Wei also divided the Xianping army into three and rushed towards the Liao army from the north.
