Chapter 1179 Edict Out of Weiyang Palace (2)

He had already chased all the way to Chishan (near Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia) and surrounded the last remaining Lulong Army, Hende Khan, who had a smile after the great victory, had no joy or pride in his heart; because compared to the price he paid to defeat the Lulong Army's invasion, the result of this turning defeat into victory can only be regarded as a miserable victory.

Not to mention that the Fu tribe and Hebian tribes, which were the first to be hit during the invasion of the Lulong Army, and the entire tribe suffered heavy losses; and the Daji tribes, which evacuated most of the tribes through the Qingye Strong Wall in the subsequent capture, but also lost most of the settlements, grasslands and livestock herds. Just to set up an ambush and siege the main force of the Lulong Army who stepped into the trap, the eight Khitan tribes that participated in the war also suffered considerable casualties.

During this period, nearly 8,000 people died directly, and the injured were even more severe. As one of the costs of ordering and restraining the various ministries to fight together, it was the corresponding burning and burial, and the main part of the treatment and pension must be borne by the royal tent.

In addition, in order to drive and mobilize the Black Carriage Wei, Xiaohuang Shiwei, Wugu, Tatar, and Martyr tribes who surrendered and belonged to the Eight Khitan tribes, to join and contribute to this life-and-death battle as a helper, rather than becoming a jackal who took advantage of the situation at critical moments, he also paid huge benefits and promised conditions in the name of the king's tent.

Not to mention the 20,000 athletes and 10,000 control strings that were cut off after the expedition to Liaodong. Therefore, although the king's tent itself cannot be considered to be severely damaged or damaged, the family and reserves accumulated over the years have been empty all the time. Especially with the two thousand Tama and 1,000 Fuli children who came out of Liaodong, the strength of the Yaonian clan has now dropped to a very dangerous level;

Fortunately, the other seven masters were damaged after the war; therefore, he could continue to use his momentum after the victory and his years of prestige as a Khan, to plan and weigh the interests of the seven masters and even form some new checks and balances without posing enough weight to challenge and threat to the rule of the Yaonian clan.

Therefore, in addition to following the trend to pursue and invade the territory of Lu Long's army, and plundering Dingkou wealth and goods to supplement the losses of each division; the first thing to be affected is to be wary of Xixi's tribes who can preserve their strength and fishermen in this battle. Thinking of this, he saw a figure riding a light horse and couldn't help but exude a surprise on his face and shouted:

"A Baoji, my best man in the account, the hero of the Yelu family... Come and stand by me..."

Because it was this "Tamasharongli" who fled back from Lulong Town to death and was captured by the Xixi people; but at a critical moment, he showed his identity and persuaded the Xixi leader where he was. In the name of the chief guard of the king's tent and the envoy of the eight Khitan tribes, he promised many conditions and interests to induce and incite and incite those elders and chief leaders to rebel, and forbidden King Xi, who had a deep hatred for the eight Khitan tribes;

Then, if it weren't for the Xixi troops who were originally affiliated with Lu Long's army, who finally made up their minds after Lu Long's army showed signs of decline and disadvantage, and under his leadership, he suddenly counterattacked and plundered the Lu Long's rear camp, causing its retreat to be cut off, and the entire army was shocked and collapsed on its own; the eight troops led by Hende Khan would have no idea how much cost and casualties were spent to completely defeat the defeated Lu Long's army.

Therefore, at this moment, De Khan has no hesitated to praise and praise, as if he wished that this handsome hero, like an eagle, would be in his family for life. And while he was praising his merits to the left and right, he regarded him as the next generation of Yilijin (the chief commander of the headquarters) of Dieshu's troops, and even the future Yilijin (the chief commander of the eight divisions).

Next, Wen Xiange, a accompanying minister in the tent, came up with a sense of ease. In the indirect attacks on comfort and praise, he implied that although he had lost his newly married wife Shuluping because of this, he had made great contributions to the eight tribes of the Khitan, naturally, the noble girls in the tent were allowed to choose from him, thinking that he would comfort the pain of being separated and widowed. Even the female members of the Khan family could do it.

Therefore, Yelu Yi, who was rare to return and made great achievements for a while, became the most popular and prominent figure nowadays. Not only did the former subordinates of the Tama tribe (Huwei Army) and the children of the tent attached to him one after another; even the other seven tribes with high power also sent people to send him generous gifts; and then, he was appointed as a general of the two divisions of Dong Xi and Xi Xi, who were appointed as the general of the two divisions of Dong Xi and Xi Xi, and was granted the special order to establish the tent and established it from the clan's division.

However, when Hende Khan turned around, his admiration and old Huai's expression of comfort disappeared without a trace. He sat alone silently for a while before waved his hand to call his brother again, one of the few remaining blood relatives who had been in Chang'an for many years. He described the more Tang Dynasty dressed in a more Tang Dynasty person, Yao Nian Zhongping.

"What are the instructions for Lord Khan?"

He asked respectfully: Because Yaonian Zhongping was sent to Chang'an to Chang'an for the emperor of the guards very early; therefore, by chance, he missed the bloody liquidation in the Konoha Mountain Sacrifice Incident. Therefore, when he was able to return to the Khitan tribe, he had gray hair and had the name of the Han Dynasty, and took the Tang family women into pairs.

But because of this, he had left his hometown for many years and had almost no foundation or old acquaintance in the Khitan clan and even the Yaonian clan's tent. Instead, he gained the trust and attention of the contemporary Khan masters. He not only gave it to the secret secrets in the tent, but also often entrusted the tasks that the Standing Committee should take. It can be said that his old acquaintance and his former Yu Yue (internal minister) Yelu Helu formed a confidant team that examined each other inside and outside the tent.

"You go to Tangdi if I want to..."

Hende Khan said straight to the point:

"Hasn't Lord Khan defeated Lu Long's army just now?"

Yao Nian Zhongping hesitated and said:

"It is precisely because of this that I need you to go to Tang Land! Now I have only defeated Lu Long with the power of the eight tribes, but the clan is also seriously damaged. In addition to Lulong Town, there are more soldiers and horses in Tang Land. Do the eight tribes have the strength to fight again?"

Hende Khan continued:

"Therefore, I want you to try to go to Luodu or Chang'an to find the court that can be mastered in the Central Plains today, and to seek quality and to show your interests. It is said that the Lu Long army has launched a border provocation and harmed all ethnic groups. We were forced to protect ourselves and were unable to do so, and we had no intention of offending the power of heaven. As long as the court can restrain the border troubles, our clan is willing to be a barrier to the border vassals in the world, and our ministers will continue to pay tribute and be loyal to us."

Of course, the ultimate judgment and determination to make this kind of reconciliation and reconciliation came from the captured Lu Long Army soldiers who tortured a few words one after another. For example, the Central Plains now has a master, but a force called the Taiping Army has entered Luodu; for example, the conquest initiated by the Lu Long Army was inspired by the defeat of the Khitan army in the southern expedition to Liaodong...

So the support he could count on in the end was obviously never to come back. So even if he blocked the news secretly, he could not ensure how long it could last; then it would become the trouble and reason for the eight tribes to attack and hold each other accountable at the next routine alliance meeting; therefore, he needed Yao Nian Zhongping to buy more time for himself to supplement and gather strength for the plunder.

At the same time, on Chishan Mountain, compared with Hende Khan who was eager to seek peace after a tragic victory, Li Quanzhong, the coach of Lu Longjie, who survived in a chaotic battle but was trapped in an ancient ruins halfway up the mountain, felt a completely different feeling. The painful blows of winning first and then losing, the setbacks of ups and downs, coupled with the repeated escape routes, made him become numb and tired, and he wished he could fall down and never get up again.

But it is ironic that the more than 100 soldiers who followed Li Quanzhong continued to maintain relative loyalty and confidence in desperate situations, because of the Taiping Army and the Xin Dynasty. Because they were worried that losing and fleeing in this way would cause their relatives and family members under the Xin Dynasty to be liquidated and implicated; if they died here in battle, at least the family would receive pensions and compensation.

In addition, Li Quanzhong vowed from beginning to end, ensuring that there were still some side divisions who thought they were backing up, so they could maintain the most basic morale and order, escorting Li Quanzhong and fighting and walking here. However, when they were exhausted and exhausted, they could not support them for too long, because the mountain-shuo team formed by the Khitans touched up again.

This time, they did not approach again, but instead kept firing rockets from afar, igniting the grass and shrubs near the remnant army and igniting them. They seemed to want to use fireworks to drive them out. Li Quanzhong, who took off his heavy armor, also added some condensation dew that remained in the cracks of the ruins of the stone wall, and slowly raised the sharp sword in his hand and said:

"After this matter, please let me die with me in the face of the enemy."

"But we can go to difficulties together..."

There were also uneven responses among the remaining soldiers: Then, it turned into a stream of people breaking through the smoke and scattered flames, killing the fan-shaped ring Khitan archers. However, the next moment, Li Quanzhong, who greedily breathed a few breaths of smoke and fire no longer smoky air, saw the archers who set up arrows and suddenly turned around and fled amid the sound of the horns.
