Li Xian's death caused a lot of shock in the capital.

Because Guo Hao has always been a benevolent and righteous country, he rarely executes prisoners publicly, but this time, the people have seen Guo Hao's ruthlessness.

Killing a Li Xian is nothing, but a few days later, another person was taken to the streets of Bianliang. The man was named Fu Tinghan, who was a military supervisor in Pingzhou. He was charged with tying the enemy and treasoning the country and beheading him!

After killing two people one after another, the people began to feel something was wrong. Many people had committed death sentences before, but Guo Hao just exiled them. Even if he was executed, it would be done secretly. He was afraid of scaring the children.

However, the two public murders made them realize that although their official family has a good temper, they are not sure of killing people.

As long as it harms the national interests, dares to collude with enemies and treason, and causes trouble while the country is unrest, Guo Hao will not show mercy!

Since he had made a break, Guo Hao simply took another hit of the medicine. He first caught some spies from the Liao Kingdom, and then he was the death row prisoner.

Caishikou killed one person a day until the court did not have any strange sounds, and the killing ended!

There was no sign of Liao's attack in advance. Perhaps Xiao Chuo had planned it for a long time, so the couple was definitely not a good deal.

With the in-depth investigation of the inner guard, Guo Hao also discovered some clues. After Yelu Xiu Ge occupied Yinzhou, he did not take the initiative to attack. He was waiting for the Song army to attack, which was very abnormal.

They had already pushed Li Guangrui to the front stage, and obviously could not just sit in Yinzhou, but the Liao army did not take any action. What else would they wait for?

This question didn't last long. With the arrival of the first spring rain, Guo Hao finally knew the answer.

On the third day of the second month, there was a spring rain. The Liao army took advantage of the rain to launch an attack. It turned out that they knew that the Song army's firearms were powerful, and they actually knew how to use rain to deal with firearms!

The Song army's firearms were unavailable and could only resist in an ordinary way. Fortunately, the rain only took half a day, and the Liao army withdrew.

In the Song army camp, two groups of people started a debate.

"General, the Liao army already knows the weakness of the firearms. Can I sit and wait for death? As soon as the sky clears, we will immediately attack the city. Yinzhou City cannot stop our cannons at all!"

"No, don't you see that the Liao army guards the city are all the people. They just prevent us from siegeing the city and drove the people to the city wall!

If we attack the city, we will inevitably implicate the people, but the main force of the Liao army will not suffer any losses. Even if we take back Yinzhou, we will be an empty city and lose the people's hearts!"

I don’t know who was thinking about it, and I used the people in the city as a shield. The Song army could not take the initiative to attack and attack the city when it rained. The Song army could only be passively beaten.

"It would be great if the Liao army could be drawn out. Even if we don't use firearms, our army may not be able to fight."

"Impossible. We have tried it before. The Liao army was not fooled at all. That Yelu Xiu Ge is very cunning and can't even scold him."

All the generals were helpless, and this was not a solution. If the Liao army insisted on siegeing the city, Xiazhou would be very dangerous even if there was a heavy rain.

Once the Song army captured Xiazhou, the two states could be used as a springboard and the troops were divided into two groups to attack Yanzhou and Suizhou. At that time, the Liao army could still be disciplined according to law, unless the people in the city were withdrawn, the people in Yinzhou could also be transferred.

With the people of Yinzhou as a shield, the Song army was a little jealous of being a rat. All of this was caused by Guo Zhiyao, and some people couldn't help but look at him.

Guo Zhiyao felt his eyes, took a deep breath, and suddenly stood up and said, "The current connection is how to lead out the Liao army. If I go as bait, do you think the Liao army will be fooled!"

As soon as this statement was made, all the generals were stunned. Yang Ye shook his head directly. He could not do this, otherwise if something happened to Guo Zhiyao, even if Guo Hao didn't blame him, Qiu Nan would not forgive him.

"No, even if His Highness of the King of Qi is used as bait, Yelu Xiu Ge may not be fooled. His purpose is to go to the ground of Dangxiang, and catching a prince means nothing to him."

Yang Ye said this, which was quite tactful. It would be fine if Guo Zhiyao did this, but once he made a mistake, he understood Guo Hao and Guo Hao would not compromise on this.

In this way, if Guo Zhiyao has an accident, he will be finished. After all, Guo Zhiyao is a prince. Even if his identity is controversial, it is still a fact in name.

"If this doesn't work, then I can only find a way to open the city gate."

Speaking of this, Yang Ye looked up at Guo Zhiyao. It seemed that Guo Zhiyao was not as unbearable as he thought, and he still had some ideas.

"Why would you rather say it and listen?"

When Guo Zhiyao heard Yang Ye’s question, he thought for a while and said, “The Liao army occupied Yinzhou because it was influenced by the Li family, so the people had nostalgia and had no resistance.

However, although the Li family was the old master of Yinzhou, they did not have much favor to the people of Yinzhou back then. On the contrary, in recent years, the court has vigorously improved the lives of the people, so the people still recognize the court very much."

He saw all the things Guo Zhiyao said with his own eyes. Since he arrived at the border, he has transferred every prefecture and county. Although some places are still very poor, their lives have been much better than before.

Yang Ye nodded, and scholar Guo Zhiyao continued.

"Since the people recognize the court, we can use this to instigate the people in the city. We can tell them that the Liao army regarded them as a shield, and the court would take compulsory measures if necessary for the overall situation.

If they do not want to become cannon fodder, they cannot obey the rule of the Li family. The Khitans are ambitions, and the peace now is an illusion. Sooner or later, they will show their vicious side.

If the Li family could not protect them at all at that time and the court was powerless, it would be difficult to guarantee their life and death!"

Guo Zhiyao's analysis made some sense. If the people in the city start to resist, there will be only a lot of chaos.

However, in this way, the Liao army will inevitably suppress it by force and will definitely kill many people. Yelu Xiu Ge will not be ruthless to his people who are not inferior to theirs.

This method is an idea, and it also requires long-term planning. Guo Hao did something similar back then and won a battle with the inside and outside.

But the situation is not the same at this time, and many details still need to be discussed. Next, the generals began to discuss this strategy. Guo Zhiyao sat in his seat and felt a little more comfortable.

...

Liao Kingdom, Wufeng Tower.

Looking at the lantern in front of him, Yelu Xian felt a little confused.

At this time, a gorgeously dressed woman came over from a distance, looking so elegant and charming.

"Empress."

When the maid saw Xiao Chuo, she quickly bowed. Xiao Chuo waved his hand and asked the maid and eunuch to go down and walk to Yelu Xian.

"His Majesty."

"Oh, Yanyan, you are here."

"Your Majesty is worried about the war?"

"Yes, the 100,000 troops stay in southern Xinjiang, Guo Hao was not fooled at all. Yanyun's land is still tightly defended and does not give us a chance."

Xiao Chuo smiled slightly when he heard this and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. I have expected this a long time ago. After suffering a loss in the Central Plains Dynasty, I will definitely not make the same mistake again.

Emperor Song Guo Hao is a smart man. He knows the importance of Yanyun's land. The reason why I, the Great Liao, did this is to give Emperor Song an illusion!"

"Oh? What's your idea?"

Xiao Chuo whispered a few words in Yelu Xian's ear when he heard this. Yelu Xian nodded with a smile and said, "If this could be done, then Guo Hao would definitely be very angry. The revenge of Liaodong back then could be avenged!"

Xiao Chuo smiled and nodded. The couple had a tacit understanding. Although they didn't say it, they understood it very well in their hearts.

Yinzhou is still in a stalemate, and the reinforcements from Xiazhou have arrived, but the people's problems are still not resolved.

However, at this moment, something suddenly happened elsewhere. The Liao Kingdom gathered a large number of military tactics, as if it was about to attack Yanyun's land. The Song army was immediately ready to face the enemy, and Guo Hao could no longer stay in Bianliang.

"What exactly is Xiao Chuo going to do! Since I can take back the land of Yanyun, I can't lose it!"

At this time, the atmosphere in the Song Dynasty became tense. The land of Yanyun was related to the fate of the country. Will the tragedy of the Later Jin Dynasty happen again?

Although the power of the Song Dynasty is pretty good, many people are still unsure. The Liao army already knows the weakness of the firearms, and their biggest advantage has disappeared.

If so, can he still block the invasion of the Liao Kingdom? If he was defeated, what would that result? Will the world want another wealthy person?

However, at this moment, another news came to Bianliang, Tubo, and Uighurs surrendered to the Liao Kingdom, and only the Guiyi army was still hesitating.

If the Guiyi army also surrendered to the Liao Kingdom, it would be very difficult for the Song Dynasty to recover the Western Regions!
