Besides, after Shi Chonggui succeeded to the throne, he encountered floods and droughts and locusts, causing famines everywhere in the country. The court sent more than 60 envoys to search for food from the people. At this time, Sang Weihan was already the attendant and asked Shi Chonggui to rebuild the Liao Kingdom to avoid war. However, Jing Yanguang was fearless and obstructed repeatedly. Shi Chonggui trusted Jing Yanguang very much, and followed his advice and refused this suggestion.

In addition to Jing Yanguang, the ministers in the court must count the Sang Weihan. Now Sang Weihan's words are not Yong, and others' words are even more useless. Liu Zhiyuan, the governor of Hedong, predicted that Jing Yanguang's reckless behavior would inevitably cause huge disasters. However, he knew that it would be useless to strive, so he recruited troops to guard the border and asked to set up more than ten armies including Xingjie and Wujie as preparations.

At this time, Yang Guangyuan, the governor of Pinglu, had a strange intention. Before, Shi Jingtang had lent three hundred good horses to Yang Guangyuan. Jing Yanguang then asked him for it with Shi Chonggui's edict. Yang Guangyuan had no choice but to send it back, and then said to his slaves: "This is obviously a doubt of me!" Yang Guangyuan secretly summoned his son Yang Chengzuo, the governor of Shanzhou, to return.

Yang Chengzuo received a letter from his father, so he claimed that his mother was ill, so he opened the city gate overnight and ran to Qingzhou. After learning about it, the Later Jin Dynasty appointed He Chao, the envoy of Zuo Feilong, and temporarily presided over the affairs of Shanzhou. He also sent an envoy from the inner squad to reward Yang Guangyuan with a jade belt and a horse to comfort him.

Seeing that his son came back, Yang Guangyuan sent cavalry into Zibo, looted the governor Zhai Jinzong and returned to Qingzhou to test the court's reaction. Shi Chonggui, considering that Yang Guangyuan was strong, did not dare to blame him. Instead, he promoted Yang Chengzuo to the governor of Dengzhou to facilitate his actions and wanted to stabilize Yang Guangyuan.

The court's actions made Yang Guangyuan even more arrogant. He secretly sent secret envoys to the Liao Kingdom and told Yelu Deguang that the Jin master had let down his kindness and violated the alliance. Now the famine in the country is serious, and if he takes advantage of this time to attack, he will definitely be able to seize the world of the Jin army in one fell swoop. Zhao Yanshou, who surrendered to the Khitan, also tried his best to persuade Yelu Deguang to march south.

Yelu Deguang was eager to move, and at this time he made up his mind, so he ordered the gathering of soldiers from Shanhou and Lu Long, with about 50,000 people, and asked Zhao Yanshou to command and appointed Zhao Yanshou to govern the Central Plains, and said, "If you can seize the Central Plains, you should be made emperor." He often pointed at Zhao Yanshou and said to the people of Jin State: "This is your emperor." Zhao Yanshou liked it so much that he hurriedly bowed to the ground to thank him. Therefore, he tried his best to plan a way to seize the Central Plains for the Liao State.

This year, spring, summer is dry, autumn, and winter is flooded. Locust plagues start, starting from the seaside in the east, reaching Longshan in the west, crossing the Yangtze River, Huaihe River in the south, and Youzhou and Jizhou in the north. The fields, valleys, city blocks, and houses are filled with locusts, bamboo leaves, and leaves.

In addition, the government plundered the civilian grains, and ordered the supervisors to punish them harshly and urgently, so they closed the mortar and grind them without leaving any food. Some people committed crimes because of hiding the grain and grain. The county magistrates often returned their seals and abandoned their official positions because of the supervision. Hundreds of thousands of people died of hunger, and they were invincible for fleeing famine. Therefore, they stayed behind, and the governors and generals donated horses, gold, silk, millet and grass to help the court.

Because of the severe famine in Hengzhou and Dingzhou, the imperial court granted these two states not to plunder the civilian grains. Dewey, the governor of Shunguo, also known as Du Chongwei, was because he was very frightened by avoiding stones.

The taboo was changed to Dewey. He reported that the military rations were insufficient and requested to search like the states, but Shi Chonggui also allowed it. Dewey adopted the strategy of judge Wang Xu, and checked and asked for almost all the requests, and obtained one million hu. However, Dewey only reported 300,000 hu, and the rest was taken into his home.

Dewey ordered the judge Li Zhuo to search for another million hu of hu in the name of borrowing. By the spring of the following year, he made two million yuan, and the whole area suffered greatly. The officials in Dingzhou also wanted to sign Dewey to report the action in Hengzhou, but the governor of Yiwu Jie Ma Quanjie rejected their suggestions and said, "I am a duty as an observer. How can I bear to learn from his way of doing this!" The people of Dingzhou were therefore a little better.

Besides, after Zhao Yanshou accepted the appointment of Yelu Deguang, he immediately led the army to set off. As soon as he arrived in Youzhou, Zhao Yanzhao, the son of Zhao Siwen, came to surrender. So Zhao Yanshou became the vanguard and led his army southward to Beizhou.

Because Beizhou was a key rush to land and water, the Later Jin court gathered a large amount of food and grass here as a storage for the large-scale march to prevent the Liao Kingdom. At the same time, the Later Jin court promoted Beizhou to the Yongqing Army, which was first under the jurisdiction of the Jiedushi Wang Zhou. Later, Wang Zhou was transferred to the post and changed to Wang Lingwen. There was a military academy Shao Ke with a fierce and unreasonable personality, so Wang Lingwen demoted him. Shao Ke was resentful in his heart and secretly sent people to Liao Kingdom and said, "Beizhou has a lot of food, but its troops are weak and easy to capture."

It just so happened that Wang Lingwen came to the palace to meet Shi Chonggui, but was not in Beizhou. Before leaving, he recommended that the former Fuzhou defense envoy Wu Luan temporarily preside over the state affairs. After Wu Luan arrived in Beizhou, he happened to encounter the Liao Dynasty's invasion. Wu Luan treated the soldiers sincerely and vowed to defend the city. The soldiers were moved by him and were willing to die. Unexpectedly, Shao Ke, who had ulterior motives, volunteered in front of Wu Luan and would rather stand alone.

Wu Luan didn't know that he had a secret ulterior motive, but instead rewarded him and ordered him to lead his troops to defend the south gate and to defend the east gate. Zhao Yanshou arrived in Beizhou and immediately launched a fierce attack. Wu Luan personally climbed the city to supervise the defense. Most of the attack tools of the Liao people were burned by Wu Luan with fire and were incomplete. Soon, Yelu Deguang personally led the army to the city of Beizhou and attacked again. Wu Luan was not timid, but asked the court for help, while leading the generals and officials to defend the death.

Unexpectedly, Shao Ke opened the south gate and put the Liao soldiers into the city. The Liao soldiers rushed in and the whole city was in chaos. Wu Luan naturally regretted it and still led people to fight with the Liao soldiers. In the end, he could not support it, so Wu Luan jumped into a well and died. The Liao army captured Beizhou City and killed tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians of Jin.

At this time, Shi Chonggui ascended the throne for a year and was in the Imperial Palace to celebrate the Yuan Dynasty. Suddenly, he received an alarm from Beizhou, saying that it was extremely dangerous. Shi Chonggui summoned all the ministers to make plans, and the ministers said more: "Beizhou is a major conflict in land and water, and it has a great relationship. But a lot of food has been allocated before, which can be supported for about ten years. Why is it so urgent once you encounter a bandit?" Shi Chonggui said: "I think it is Wu Luan, the governor, who exaggerates the enemy's arrogance, and wait for me to send generals to help him slowly!"

A few days later, another police letter came, saying that Beizhou had been lost and Wu Luan died for his country. So the Later Jin court was busy. Shi Chonggui ordered the governor of Guide Gao Xingzhou to deploy the camp in the north, Fu Yanqing, the governor of Heyang, to be the left wing of the cavalry army, Huangfu Yu, the right Shenwu army, was the right wing of the cavalry army, Wang Zhou, the governor of Shaanxi Prefecture, to be the left wing of the infantry army, and Pan Huan, the left wing of the infantry army, and led 30,000 troops to resist the Liao army. After Gao Xingzhou was ordered, he led the front army to set out first.

It just so happened that the governor of Chengde, Dewey, sent his aide Cao Guangyi to Qingzhou to tell Yang Guangyuan about the good and bad fortune. Yang Guangyuan asked Cao Guangyi to report that he was loyal and said that he was loyal. His son Yang Chengzuo went home privately, but he really came back to visit his sick mother. Since he was grateful to the emperor, the whole clan would be grateful, how dare he have inappropriate thoughts? Shi Chonggui believed it and ordered Cao Guangyi to comfort Yang Guangyuan. In fact, Yang Guangyuan was not sincere, but just a delaying strategy.

Shi Chonggui thought that there was no worries in the east and could be at ease in the north. So he appointed Li Zhou, the former governor of Binzhou, as the reign of Tokyo, and led the imperial guards to set off. He also added Feng Jingyanguang as the imperial camp, and his strategy and orders for using troops came from Jing Yanguang. No one from the prime minister could participate. Jing Yanguang used his power to be willful and insulted the generals. Even Shi Chonggui could not stop him.

During the march, he connected to various places to alert. Hedong reported that the Liao soldiers had entered Yanmen Pass, Heng, Xing and Cang, and also sent envoys to report that a enemy had entered the territory. Huazhou reported that Yelu Deguang had arrived in Liyang. Shi Chonggui ordered the Hedong Jieduan Liu Zhiyuan to recruit the Youzhou Daoxingying envoy, and the Chengde Jieduan Duwei was appointed as the deputy. He then sent Zhang Yanze, the general of the Right Martial Guard, to Liyang to resist the Liao soldiers.

Shi Chonggui was worried that the Liao army was strong and could not resist, so he sent Meng Shouzhong to write a letter to the Liao Lord Yelu Deguang, demanding that the old good be restored. Yelu Deguang restored the letter, "The situation that has been formed cannot be changed." Shi Chonggui couldn't help but be anxious and had to bite the bullet and travel north to Chanzhou. At this time, it was reported that the Liao Lord Yelu Deguang was stationed in Yuancheng, and Zhao Yanshou was stationed in Nanle.

Shi Chonggui felt that he was getting closer and closer to the Liao soldiers and was even more worried. He was overwhelmed with military writing and miscellaneous work throughout the day. Soon, he received a good news from Liu Zhiyuan, Taiyuan, and defeated the Wei Wang of Liao in Xiurong, Xinzhou, and killed 3,000 enemies. The Liao soldiers fled from Yaming Valley. Shi Chonggui was very happy, but received another report of defeat. Yan Huai of Yunzhou sent an observer to report that Zhou Ru, the governor of Bozhou, surrendered to Liao, and then joined forces with Yang Guangyuan, leading the Liao soldiers to cross the river from Majiakou. After the defeat of the Left Wu Guard, Cha Xing, was captured alive. Shi Chonggui was very worried and had to ask Jing Yanguang, the ambassador of the plenipotentiary, to discuss military information with him.

Dou Yi said to Jing Yanguang: "If the Northern Territories crossed the Yellow River and joined forces with Yang Guangyuan, it would be very dangerous south of the Yellow River." Jing Yanguang agreed, so he asked Shi Chonggui to order the former Baoyi Jiedushi to guard Majiakou, the former Weisheng Jiedushi He Chongjian to guard Yang Liu Town, the guardian commander Bai Zairong to guard Majiakou, and the Xijing left behind An Yanwei to guard Heyang.

At the same time, Li Shouzhen, commander of the commander of the guards, the commander of the Ma Army, Huangfu Yu, the commander of the Shenwu Army, Liang Hanzhang, the commander of the Chenzhou defense, and Xue Huairang, the governor of Huaizhou, led more than 10,000 troops and advanced along the Yellow River.

Suddenly, he received an urgent report from Gao Xingzhou, Fu Yanqing and others that he was surrounded by Liao soldiers when he led his army to Qicheng, so he asked to send troops to rescue him immediately. Jing Yanguang had already ordered the generals to refuse to defend themselves in different places and not to rescue each other. This time they came to ask for help, which was contrary to the military order. It would be better to wait and see for several days and then make a mistake. However, Qicheng's army reported to Shi Chonggui.

Shi Chonggui was shocked and said, "This is the main army, why don't you save it!" Jing Yanguang said, "All the troops have been sent elsewhere. Now only His Majesty's personal army is enough, can't they be sent?" Shi Chonggui said, "I personally commanded the army to rescue him, what's wrong!" So he summoned the guards to rectify and move forward.
