More than 100,000 Dangxiang Khitan coalition forces were defeated by Xu Chao in 40,000 battle, and they were completely damaged!

The news was quickly passed from Suizhou because there were too many people concerned, and this kind of news was transmitted through fast horses traveling hundreds of miles a day, which was completely different from the general spread of information.

The northwest was terrified, and the whole north was affected.

The Tubo tribes in Hexi and the south were very uneasy. They quickly sent people to Lingzhou to inquire about the attitude of the Daxu court and whether they would continue to fight westward... Lingzhou has a hostel of various tribes, which was originally a place for trading and trading, and now it is also a stronghold for convenient transportation between the two.

At this time, the Northern Expedition grassland had a faint green view from a distance, and spring had arrived. A fast horse wearing a felt hat galloped on the grassland, "Da...@...@...@,↙.⊙.≯,Dada..." The horse's hooves repeated the fast rhythm, the grassland stretched out, and the old city walls of Shangjing had appeared on the horizon.

Not long after, the messenger entered the Great Liao Palace. He knelt alone in the hall with a wooden tube, and held it up with both hands. A servant came over and took the urgent report under the gaze of the ministers on both sides. Some of the people present were wearing warm fur hats, and some people wearing long robes and squid heads. They were not Han people, but Khitan officials, but many of the rituals had the shadow of Han officials.

The attendant opened the wooden tube, pulled out a roll of paper from it, turned around and looked at the upper position, Yelu Xian nodded. The attendant scraped away the vermilion lacquer, unfolded the paper and handed it to Yelu Xian.

After seeing this, Yelu Xian immediately handed it to Xiao Siwen who was standing beside him, and said, "Yang Gun and Li Yiyin were defeated, and more than 100,000 people were chased and killed and injured, and there were corpses within a hundred miles."

The hall suddenly became an uproar!

Someone immediately cursed: "Yang Gun is a stupid pig! Last time, it was not a reward. Xu's army's elite troops were only 40,000 to 50,000, and he would not be like this even if he relied on 20,000 infantry and cavalry alone! There was also Dangxiang's 100,000 army... Yes, the envoys sent to Pingxia all reported that Dangxiang people had combat power, and the infantry and cavalry were not inferior to the tribe army..."

At this moment, Xiao Siwen spoke coldly and said, "Yang Gun is the last general. If he can fight like this, you will definitely be much better for the troops. Brother Yelu Xiu used to pat his chest and said how powerful it is, so what if he is in Youzhou?"

Yelu Xizhen, who held heavy troops, immediately agreed, "Mr. Xiao's words are reasonable."

The ministers felt something, and the insults immediately became much smaller.

When Emperor Yelu Xian spoke again, the ministers stopped talking casually. Yelu Xian said, "When Yang Gun comes back, ask him what's going on."

Yelu Xian asked again: "What exactly do you want to do after Guo Blacksmith ascended the throne of the Central Plains? Ben Khan heard that before the Battle of Pingxia, the Central Plains court colluded with Goryeo and wanted to take the land of the Bohai Sea in the northeast of our country?"

A nobleman said, "Blacksmith Guo is just bluffing?"

He wasn't sure even his own tone.

Xiao Siwen said: "Guo Blacksmith is planning to seize the throne of the Zhou Dynasty. In just a few years, he has occupied a lot of territory with force..."

The people in the hall gradually felt great external pressure. Not only because of the news of the failure of the Battle of Pingxia, but also the past on the battlefield was not long ago.

...

Xu Jun successfully "taken over" Yinzhou, Xiazhou, Youzhou and other cities along the way along the Wuding River. He encountered almost no resistance. After Li Yiyin was defeated, the various places had no intention of resisting and no more soldiers.

The governor of Lingzhou, Zhe De, lifted the guards of the military and civilians of the whole province and rushed to Xiazhou to meet the emperor under the imperial edict. He also wanted to ask about the court's attitude so that he could deal with the situation properly when facing the envoys of the northwest tribes.

Xiazhou, formerly known as "Tongwancheng", is very old, but the thick city walls rammed earth still show the ambitions of the rulers occupying here. In the ancient city, the shadows of the undulating mountain in the sky are faintly visible, and the desolate grasslands in the north are endless, as if the unknown complex and relatively sparsely populated northwest region.

Guo Shao's army did not rashly capture the palace of massacre, and the central army camp was only located in a yamen in Xiazhou.

When Zhe Dejian was taken to the simple lobby, he deeply felt the excitement of the imperial guards. The lobby was full of shouts and killing at the northwest! In one battle, he killed the enemy troops three times more than his own, which made the generals a little unable to control their blood. He heard that the front camp military mansion arrested Tubo and Uighurs, and many people shouted to take advantage of the victory to advance westward and fight all the way to the Western Regions!

The civil servants greeted Zhe Deyi one after another, and were very polite in their words. Most of the generals of the Imperial Guard were fine, but Shi Yanchao, who was only a big man, looked at Zhe Deyi with a squint look. Zhe Deyi was unwilling to lose his momentum, and stood there with a serious face straight, not taking the initiative to greet him.

At this moment, when he heard a "wow" sound of metal rubbing outside the door, the guards lifted the cherry gun together, and then they saw Guo Shao, who was dressed in military uniform, walk in from outside the door.

The generals held their fists and saluted, and the civil servant bowed. Guo Shao walked onto the seat and sat down before saying, "Can you kill all the people in the northwest?"

The whole house of civil and military officials suddenly became silent.

Even Zhe Dejian was shocked in secret. He couldn't tell any specific feelings, but he couldn't help but feel awe of the emperor. In addition to his outstanding military achievements and imperial power behind him, he also had a lot of momentum today. But perhaps that momentum was learned after his high position and power.

Guo Shao gave Zhe Deyan a special feeling more than once. His power was not like Shi Yanchao. His speech was thorny and violent, but his voice was not loud. However, his verbal thinking was clear and straightforward. His bright eyes made people absolutely believe that he knew what he knew and no one dared to do anything randomly.

The emperor was tall and strong, with a typical young martial artist, but his posture was very straight and his head was never lowered. He stood in a standing posture, sat in a sitting posture, and his powerful and upright movements made him feel order and order. More than once, Zhe De felt that the emperor and all the world had different temperaments.

It is impossible to obey people without getting angry. Zhe Deyi has always been very curious... Maybe it is the bright and upright spirit revealed in his posture, words and deeds? There is a certain reason. Even martial artists will not respect the things that are frivolous and obscene. But it is not exactly that kind of upright spirit.

Moreover, Guo Shao’s actions are “benevolence”. The kindness in his bones is kind to the people, and he will also talk about brotherhood and affection to his generals and benevolence to his generals.

This is by no means weakness, but human nature, reliability, security and trust. No one is willing to be loyal to those who are completely cold-blooded, because no matter how good you are to him, he may be kind to revenge. What's the point of this?

What Guo Shao did was not acting, and every little thing was clearly divided into grudges. Including the fact that someone whispered in private that he married his cousin and sister-in-law, Zhe De knew some of the inside story, and his views on this matter were different. He could do this to a woman, let alone to a brother who had lost his life?
