"Good news! Good news..." A man outside the palace came in excitedly.

The brush in Guo Shao's hand was frozen on the paper and he raised his head. Dozens of people in the signing room turned their heads and looked at the door, their movements were neat and uniform. The swaying lights, dozens of pairs of eyes shining in the bright light.

Soon, a messenger with a triangular red flag on his back was placed straight into the signing room because it was a good news.

The commander knelt on one knee, picked up the blood-stained report with both hands, and shouted: "The military cavalry in front of the palace won a great victory on the southern line!"

The eunuch Wang Zhong hurriedly walked down to pick up the things. Guo Shao asked, "What is the result of the battle?"

The commander said: "Encircle and destroy 30,000 elite cavalry of the Liao army! Capture the Liao army commander Yelu Xiuge alive!"

"Wow..." Everyone in the signing room was immediately excited, and even the messengers and guards lined up outside started to make noise. Some people widened their eyes, clenched their fists, and some people raised their heads arrogantly and laughed "haha" loudly.

Wei Renpu looked back and said loudly: "Your Majesty leads his troops to sweep the world. All the world is the king's land!"

The civil servants and generals followed and shouted, "Is there any king's land under the world... or the king's land...", and a group of people stood up and knelt down, bowing while shouting: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live..."

Under the night, Guo Shao's face turned red. Although he did not cheer like everyone, his excited expression could not be concealed. It goes without saying what this battle means...

"Happiness" came too suddenly, and Guo Shao felt that his blood was hotter than usual, but he felt a little dazed under the slightly dim light. Maybe it was because the pressure was too great before, and he felt dizzy when he suddenly relaxed his brain.

Indeed, this battle was just an accident and was not expected at all! Although the outcome should be no different in the expected trajectory of disobedience, this battle undoubtedly greatly reduced the torment process.

Guo Shao raised his head and let out a long breath. He reached out and rubbed his forehead for a few times, then spread the report in his hand and looked carefully before confirming it, then handed it to the eunuch Wang Zhong: "Let's see for the ministers... just get up and talk."

There was a lot of discussion in the room, and people were still in joy and excitement while reading the report.

Guo Shao turned his head and looked at the night sky outside the carved window. The weather was so good tonight, and the stars in the sky were very gorgeous! In the beautiful night, he found a light dragging his tail across the sky, a meteor. It seemed that the wish was fulfilled in the dark, and it was like an important figure in the legend that fell in the sky... Yelu Xiuge was known as the number one tiger general of the Liao Dynasty, and he was also considered a figure.

Guo Shao was refreshed at this moment.

This sign-in house is very simple and the pomp is not big enough. It cannot reflect a major atmosphere at this moment, but everything that happens here will surely spread throughout the world! Because the stars in the sky are watching everything on the ground!

Someone said, "Yelu Xiu Ge and his subordinates were extremely guilty. We can cut down the head of the Liao army and build Jingguan in Yizhou."

There was an immediate supporter, "Repay grievances with righteousness and return blood with blood! Just revenge is the way of the sages!"

Wei Renpu was more calm than other ministers and said calmly: "I think it is better to throw the head of the Liao army into Youzhou City, scare them, and continue to open a gap in the east of the city and take down Youzhou as soon as possible. As for Yizhou, people can ask people to build a shackle-kneeling statue in the city to insult Yelu Xiuge."

After hearing this, Guo Shao felt that the method was very good, so he immediately said, "So you can arrange this matter according to the report of Deputy Envoy Wei."

"I will obey the order."

...The next morning was sunny again, but the battlefield was filled with smoke and a bleak atmosphere.

Many people were carrying headless bodies into the big pit. In the dirt pits around, firewood, tung oil burned the bones and black smoke filled the air. An unpleasant smell was rippling in the air, and the smell of burning blood and flesh, fishy smell and various mixed stenches.

The soldiers and civilians of Zhou were mingling together and were driving cars on the battlefield slowly. The soldiers took the wood chopping to the ground and slashed their heads with one knife. The people and Ding Fu were picking up weapons and arrows on the ground, and some were pulling out armor from the corpses and searching for things inside.

Cars of people's heads were transported away, and lime was sprinkled on them.

On the battlefield, generals such as Li Chuyun watched their achievements on horseback. This messy situation was a painful scene for the Liao people, but it was like a show of showing off their power to the Zhou people.

The two countries have been hostile for many years and have too many blood feuds. At this time, the soldiers have no mercy and are happy with such a bloody scene!

However, everyone was really tired in the battle yesterday. After the fight, the Zhou army was killed and injured. Everyone was exhausted and few people spoke.

Yang Biao took out a piece of wheat cake from the bag, and took a bite while looking at the battlefield. Shi Yanchao immediately turned around and looked at Yang Biao on horse face with a strange look, as if saying: You still eat this smell and this scene!

...

The Zhou army outside Youzhou City still besieged the city, but did not attack the city early this morning. Youzhou City seemed to be dead silent.

Xiao Siwen sat on the leather chair in the Nanyuan Mansion, looking dull and didn't say a word all morning.

But Abudi cursed below: "Baoshi! Yelu Xiu Ge is a trash. It's not a pity to die. It's just a pity to reinforce our Daliao elite soldiers..."

Another general said dejectedly: "How did Yelu Xiu Ge fight like this... It's really unbelievable!"

At this moment, Han official Fan Zhongyi asked carefully: "Will reinforcements be sent to the capital?"

Xiao Siwen's motionless head immediately turned around and looked at Fan Zhongyi. This sentence was the key.

Youzhou is very important, but is the Liao Dynasty willing to consume all its national strength here? Even if the emperor is willing, can he mobilize a large army in such a situation? What's more, if you really want to pester it, what's the ending is still hard to say.

Today, the Zhou army ceased to fight, which made Xiao Siwen feel that Youzhou was already a dead city in this dead atmosphere!

Fan Zhongyi reminded carefully again: "If there are no reinforcements, Youzhou will probably not be able to defend it sooner or later."

...When the Great Liao Dynasty went to Beijing, the news of Yelu Xiu Ge's defeat and annihilation came, and it was even more like a bolt from the blue!

It was rare to have a heavy rain on the grassland, and the wind and rain raged across the entire Shangjing. Yelu Jing felt that the palace city was about to overturn in the storm...

This is not timidity. Yelu Jing truly felt the danger, but it was not the wind and rain that overturned the imperial power, but people.

"Yelu Xiu Ge..." The scepter in Yelu Jing's hand was shaking, "I let down Ben Khan's high hopes!"

The attendants around and the ministers and nobles below all bent down and stood there in fear.

Although the Daliao claimed to be a million-strong control force, it was not easy to bear the loss of 30,000 elite troops at once. If it were a period of prosperity and stability, this loss could only be sustained, but the current situation is different. This is a heavy blow to Yelu Jing's throne!

Yelu Jing’s emotions towards Xiu Ge are hard to describe... He has a very angry and gritted teeth and a kind of regret. No matter what, Yelu Xiu Ge is a general who trusts and is capable around him. Now that he has lost it, Yelu Jing feels that his power has been greatly weakened.

"Youzhou..." Yang Gun took a step forward and suddenly stopped again. Everyone was in a state of depression and failure. Yang Gun came back to his senses quickly and immediately thought of the most critical place at this time, it was Youzhou!

Yelu Jing looked at Yang Gun quietly, then looked away and pretended not to hear.

At this moment, Yelu Xian said coldly: "Yelu Xiu Ge's aggressive advance, frivolous and dereliction of duty, which caused our Great Liao army to suffer major losses and fall into an unfavorable situation! His death is not enough to atone for his sins. The blame lies with Yelu Xiu Ge alone. I am telling you to kill Yelu Xiu Ge's entire family to counter his great sins!"

Yelu Jing still said nothing. No matter how hateful Brother Xiu was, he still thought of his loyalty in his heart and was not willing to do this in private... But Yelu Xian's meaning was very clever, and he was putting all the blame on Brother Xiu. Now, it is good for everyone.

But, what should I do in Youzhou?

Yelu Xiuge was defeated in the war. If Youzhou lost again... Youzhou not only lost a large area of ​​wealthy territory, but also had more than 10,000 Khitan cavalry in the city, leaving 20,000 to 30,000 infantrymen. In addition, there were tens of thousands of Khitan families in Youzhou and Khitans in each city! They were all lost? Yelu Jing, the great knight, was able to constantly pay the Liao family's fortune, and he could still order the tribes?

And Youzhou seems to be unable to solve the situation. Yelu Jing is in a dilemma and feels that the road seems to be gone!

Yelu Jing did not dare to say directly and wanted to give up Youzhou; no one in the entire Shangjing dared to say this. However, it became unlikely that Xiao Siwen would reinforce and continue to go south to Youzhou to launch a national war.

Only by pushing Xiao Siwen out, and then all the blame for losing Youzhou is shirked to Xiao Siwen!

Whether it is useful or not, I am afraid that this is all that is the only way to go!

Sure enough, someone said carefully: "Yelu Xiu Ge was defeated in Youzhou, and Xiao Siwen has no reinforcements for the time being. Can you still defend the city when you see this situation?"

A minister said: "Another reinforcements are transferred south to rescue Xiao Siwen?"

The hall was silent and everyone was silent.

Yang Gun said calmly: "Khan, the Great Liao army was originally scheduled to go south after the autumn; Yelu Xiuge's troops and Xiao Siwen first stabilized Youzhou City. Now Yelu Xiuge was defeated, so he could only order Xiao Siwen to take on the heavy responsibility alone and defend Youzhou until autumn..."

This plan immediately received support from many people. Anyway, no one wants to waste it when going south. If it can be delayed until autumn, then it will be delayed. Because there is no way to resolve it!

Yelu Jing also understood in his heart that he questioned how many months could Xiao Siwen last for a single tree?

He opened his mouth, sighed and swallowed it into his stomach.

"Huhh..." The strong wind whistled outside the palace, pouring in through the crevice of the nailed wooden board, creaking. Yelu Jing seemed to have thousands of horses galloping in his heart. He had always been worried about the turmoil of the tribes on the grassland. He really didn't expect that he would fall into the hands of the southerners!

The southerner Han'er is actually the most fatal threat! Who can imagine it?
