Chapter 685 Sweet Dream(1/2)
The analysis by Zhao Kuangyi, Han Kuangmei, and Han Kuangwen is extremely thorough.
There is no perfect and sound system in this world. The birth of every policy system inevitably has various problems.
This is also the reason why the Song Dynasty suppressed military generals in all aspects.
Even if Luo Youdu expressed his attitude, there are still some people in this era who want to overpower the generals.
Not everyone is stupid, and not everyone is motivated by profit, but the result of military commanders causing chaos in the world is right in front of them.
Learning from the lessons of our predecessors is a natural awakening for future generations.
Luo Youdu was a time traveler and had just learned firsthand the consequences of civil servants suppressing generals, but others were limited by the times and did not know.
In this regard, even if Luo Youdu had advanced ideas, he could not change the situation.
Even in the future, the beautiful country known as the "most democratic" will have all kinds of weird and funny policies, not to mention zero-dollar purchases, even the mermaid Snow White can turn into black.
Even China has to cross the river step by step after losing its reference object.
Thoughts that are too advanced may not be suitable for this era.
Luo Youdu himself was constantly experimenting, hoping to find a suitable method.
Many things said by Zhao Kuangyi, Han Kuangmei, and Han Kuangwen are facts about the existence of the Yu Dynasty, and this situation is not easy to change. It will take time to verify everything.
However, Yelu Bishe could not have imagined that there would be so many problems within the Central Plains.
These circumstances gave him renewed hope of victory.
Once people have hope, they have motivation.
On the second day, Yelv Bishe appeared at the imperial city tower, faced the low morale defenders with a cheerful attitude, and comforted and encouraged them.
Yelu Bishe's positive attitude indeed made many civil servants and military officers who retreated to the imperial city feel at ease.
Kang Yanshou said: "Your Majesty, our Daliao Imperial City is as strong as Chang'an and Luoyang. Even if there are ten times more soldiers and horses in the Central Plains, it will still be difficult to conquer."
When he said this, his tone was somewhat proud.
As a member of the Kang family who were Han heroes in the founding of the Liao Dynasty, Erhan and Kangzhong, the entire Linhuang Mansion was designed by Kang Moji, an ancestor of the Kang family.
Especially for the Khitan Imperial City, Kang Moji integrated the style characteristics of the Central Plains and Goryeo, and also disassembled and installed the defensive weapons on the towers of Jinyang, Bianliang, and Luoyang into the Imperial City of Beijing.
Yelu Abaoji and Yelu Deguang did not realize that the Khitan would be what it is today, but heroes with great wisdom like them would not mind having an extra trump card. They gave Kang Moji the greatest support, and today we are here.
The Khitan Imperial City.
Kang Yanshou continued: "The biggest problem of the imperial city is that it cannot be self-sufficient. Although the food reserves in Cangcheng are enough to support us for a year or two. But at this point, the Southern Dynasty will not give up easily. The Southern Dynasty has a strong national power and has the South China Sea.
Food support from all countries. If there is no major disaster, I am afraid it will not retreat easily in the short term. No one can guarantee how long they will besiege the city in the future. Maybe after they cannot attack by force, they will have the idea of consuming all our food. I think we can’t
Sit back and wait for death, and be prepared for long-term consumption."
He paused and continued: "I propose to cultivate fields within the imperial city and make use of the useless land suitable for farming."
Yelvbi took care of the commander and said: "Kang Qing's words are to be prepared for a rainy day. For the sake of the Liao Dynasty, I will set an example first. The mountains and rivers in the palace, city and back garden are beautiful, but I am not the master of pleasure. I cannot enjoy pleasure at this moment. I can be bulldozed."
The back garden is used for farming."
As soon as Yelv Bishe finished speaking, the flattering voices of "Your Majesty is wise" started loudly.
Seeing that Yelvbi was taking the lead, His Highness's ministers, encouraged by their own emperor, began to work hard to provide suggestions.
The fighting spirit of the monarch and his ministers was high, and the meeting was not concluded until nightfall.
Yelubi took pictures of his subordinates, ministers and generals who were united in their will, and felt completely at ease, ready to have a good sleep.
Before he even lay down, he received the latest battle situation.
"Your Majesty! News came from all four gates that the Southern Dynasty is launching another land attack and plans to attack from under the city wall."
The person who reported the situation to Yelu Bishe was Yelu Daoyin. At this moment, he was already the commander-in-chief of the imperial city and was responsible for the overall defense of the palace.
Yelu Bishe was not horrified when he heard this. Instead, he laughed out loud and joked: "How much does the Southern Dynasty look down on us? Do you really think we are little brats like the Japanese who have never seen the world?"
What Yelu Bishe is talking about is what really happened. The Japanese tactics theory at this time was extremely poor. When they attacked Goryeo, they saw the Khitan's siege methods and were shocked. The most common earthworks were digging tunnels and cutting off water and food.
, water attack and other tactics can be used as magical skills.
But in fact, these methods made every pioneer of the art of war successful during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
After thousands of years of evolution and development, as long as it is an important military area, the first consideration when building a city is water attack, fire attack, earth attack and other issues.
There are also urns specially designed to detect soil attack tunnels.
There is a record in "Mozi Bei Xue" that when the city defenders discovered that the enemy was digging a tunnel, they immediately dug a well under the wall of the city and placed a new vat in the well.
People lie on the cylinder and listen to the enemy's movements. The sound produced when the enemy digs a tunnel propagates underground at a high speed and has small attenuation, which easily arouses resonance in the cylinder, so that the location of the underground enemy can be detected.
There are listening urns all over the Khitan Imperial City. When there is groundbreaking in the Central Plains of the Southern Dynasty, they can receive the message here.
Even if Yelu Bishe doesn't understand military skills, he still understands the secrets. Once the local attack is given insight into the whereabouts, there is no possibility of success.
As long as you determine the location, use a hollow bamboo, and fill it with smoke, you can ensure that the opponent's earth attack will be ineffective.
If you use water and poison more harshly, the soldiers responsible for the land attack will not even have a chance to retreat.
Yelu Daoyin also had a relaxed and comfortable look on his face, and did not take the Southern Dynasty's inferior offensive methods to heart. If Yelu Bishe hadn't been concerned about the war, he had repeatedly emphasized before that that the Southern Dynasty would report to him whenever there was any movement.
He didn't want to talk about the means.
Yelvbi photographed: "Pay close attention to all movements, and after gaining insight into the specific location, go directly to the poisonous smoke. We must let them know the price of despising us."
Yelu Daoyin accepted the order happily.
Yelvbishe didn't take this matter to heart, but closed his eyes and fell asleep peacefully, and had a sweet dream.
I dreamed that the Khitans, united as one, successfully withstood the attack of the Central Plains in Linhuang Mansion. However, there were changes in the Central Plains, and they took advantage of the situation to fight back. Not only did they regain the lost territory, but they also re-captured the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun.
Just when he ordered the troops to attack Hebei from the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun, intending to drink the Yellow River, he heard the urgent exclamation of his chamberlain.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty... the thieves have entered the palace!"
Yelv Bishe opened his eyes in confusion, looked blankly at the attendant with a candle in his hand and a terrifying expression on his face, and exclaimed in fright: "What? Attacked? Has Supervisor Zhao crossed the Yellow River?"
The memory in the dream was somewhat real, and Yelvbishe hadn't woken up yet.
That's right, in the dream, it was Zhao Kuangyi who led the Khitan army to recapture the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun and prepared to drink the Yellow River.
The chamberlain wanted to cry when he heard this, and shouted: "Your Majesty, it's the southern thieves who have invaded the imperial city."
One sentence directly brought Yelu Bishe back to reality from his dream. With a livid face, he said in a cold voice: "Who welcomed the southern thieves into the city?"
The several generals responsible for guarding the Imperial City were all his trusted aides, and they were the most trustworthy people. But he did not believe that the Southern Dynasty could jump over the Imperial City from the sky, nor did he believe that the Southern Dynasty could break through the Imperial City so easily. The only explanation was
That is, someone surrendered and welcomed the thieves into the imperial city.
"have no idea!"
The chamberlain was at a loss and said: "The thieves appeared in the inner palace inexplicably, and they are already heading here to kill."
"How can it be?"
Yelvbi was completely panicked at this moment. The Khitan imperial city was very large and divided into inner palace and outer palace. The outer palace was where the Khitan officials handled their affairs and where the six ministries were located. The inner palace was also divided into the main hall and the harem.
All are protected by palaces and cities.
Even if there is a problem in one place, other places can be protected.
This appeared directly in the inner palace, so it’s unlikely that all the confidants will surrender, right?
Yelvbishe could never have imagined that the cause of all this was a woman he let go in order to show his benevolence.
Xiao Yilai!
Kaijiao Temple, nine-storied pagoda.
Luo Youdu stood on the ninth floor of the tower, looking at the Khitan Imperial City that was already in flames and turmoil, knowing that something big was about to happen.
Xiao Yilai coughed slightly, feeling a little weak. He stood on the right side behind Luo Youdu, but his eyes were not on the Khitan Imperial City, but on the "brother-in-law" in front of him. He was a little amazed and a little uncomfortable.
Xiao Yilai always thought that he was lucky.
Compared to the eldest sister and the younger sister who are living in a foreign land, not knowing whether they will live or die, at least they are in their own country and don't have to look at other people's faces to act.
It turned out that the eldest sister and the younger sister lived a very comfortable life. The eldest sister even became the commander-in-chief of tens of thousands of troops and fulfilled her dream. However, she carried the hatred alone, pretending to be ill for five years, planning for five years, for the sake of the plan, for the sake of the plan.
To protect yourself, don’t step out of the door for five years.
The gap between this made Xiao Yilai feel a little uncomfortable.
Hearing the sound of coughing beside him, Luo Youdu said: "It's windy here. Madam Xiao can't bear the wind and cold, so why not go down and rest. I will not make mistakes when I promise you something."
Xiao Yilai shook his head with a bit of stubbornness and said: "I want to see with my own eyes the destruction of the country that Yelvbi took."
Although Xiao Siwen died at the hands of the Han family, there is no doubt that the real man behind the scenes was Yelu Bishe who usurped the throne.
With Xiao Yilan's intelligence, it is impossible not to see this, but she did not add Yelu Bishe to the conditions, which shows that she still understands the truth.
Even if Yelu Bishe had to die, it would not be Xiao Yilai's turn to take action.
This also made Luo Youdu glance at Xiao Yilai, waved his hand, and said to Qin Han: "Go and get a big coat for Mrs. Xiao, don't let the great hero freeze."
Xiao Yilaan hesitated for a moment and asked: "Has Your Majesty understood my plan from the beginning?"
