According to the prepared plan, Wanyan Sagai will pretend to attack the Nanjing Road of the Liao Kingdom and entangle the Liao army on the Nanjing Road. The first army assaulted westward and attacked Dading Mansion in Zhongjing with Wan Yangao's North Route Army on both sides.

This time, Wanyan Gao, who was entrusted with a heavy responsibility by the Emperor Wanyan Aguda of the Jin Kingdom, is the fifth son of Jin Shizu Wanyan Peilibo, and the same mother and brother of the Emperor Wanyan Aguda.

Wanyan Aguda entrusted his brother Wanyan Gao with the heavy task of attacking the Liao Kingdom in order to enhance his prestige in the army and allow him to better control the military power of the Dajin Kingdom.

Because according to the tradition of the Wanyan tribe, the position of emperor is brother and brother.

After Wanyan Aguda passed away, the throne will be passed on to his brother Wanyan Wu Qibu.

After Wanyan Wu Qimai became emperor, it was the turn of Wanyan Aguda and Wanyan Wu Qimai's brother Wanyan Gao to inherit the throne.

In order to maintain this traditional transfer of power, Emperor Wanyan Aguda handed over the state affairs to Wanyan Wu begging him to stay in the capital to assist him in managing the country. At the same time, he deliberately handed over the army to Wanyan Gao and trained him as the second The heir to the throne.

After the Jin army assembled, they slaughtered horses and sacrificed the flag. After the great shaman of the Tang Kuo tribe invited the gods to his body and declared that they would win the battle against Liao, they embarked on the journey with great vigor and mightiness.

The battle between Jin and Liao broke out in an all-round way.

All the Jurchen troops joined the Jin Army expeditionary force, and when they marched towards the territory of the Liao Kingdom, it was impossible for Ximen Qing, who was the son-in-law of the Jin Kingdom and the lord of the Yalu River Estuary on Posu Road, to stay completely out of the matter.

Hulu Bo, who is in charge of the military and political affairs of the South Road, is extremely fierce. Although Wanyan Sagai knew that Ximen Qingyuan was in the Song Dynasty, he still sent someone to Ximen Qing's territory to send a recruitment order to the newly established Ximen Department. Require.

Wanyan Sagai did not ask the Ximenqing tribe on the bank of the Yalu River to send troops to follow him on the westward expedition, but asked Ximenqing to send [-] troops to assist Posulu to consolidate the defense line in the southeastern border of the Jin Kingdom and prevent the Jin army from conquering the Liao Dynasty. At the time of the country, it invaded and occupied the territory of Basu Road.

Before the founding of the Dajin Kingdom, the king of Koryo, Wang Yu, had always coveted the territory of the Jurchens in the north. He once sent troops to attack the Jurchens, and built nine cities on the territory of the Jurchens to encroach on them.

Although he was defeated by Wanyan Aguda and others in the war with the Jurchens, the Koryo army was forced to retreat to the country, but the ambition of the Koryo king Wang Yu did not diminish.

When Wanyan Agu fought against the Liao Dynasty, the king of Koryo, Wang Yu, took advantage of the defeat of the Liao Dynasty and the isolated city of Baozhou City by the Yalu River. State, expanding its territory north to the south bank of the Yalu River.

After the Jurchens established the Great Jin Kingdom, King Matata of Koryo saw that the Jurchens were becoming stronger and stronger, so he completely abandoned the Suzerain Liao Kingdom and established diplomatic relations with the Jin Kingdom.

Just last July, when the Jin army attacked the Shangjing Road of the Liao State, the Liao State sent Xiao Zunli, the deputy envoy of the Music Academy, across the sea to the Koryo State and asked the Koryo State to send troops to attack the Jin State.

However, the suzerain-vassal relationship between Goryeo and the Liao State has been severed, so naturally they did not obey the orders of the Liao State.

The emperor Wanyan Aguda of the Jin Kingdom took the destruction of the Khitan of the Liao Kingdom as his lifelong goal, and adopted a soft and friendly policy towards the Koryo Kingdom.

When the Jurchen guards in the southeast frontier reported that Koryo had increased troops and built a city on the border with ulterior motives, Wanyan Aguda still restrained the southeast generals and forbade them to start troubles with Koryo.

The king of Koryo, Wang Yu, also repeatedly expressed his goodwill to the emperor of the Jin Kingdom, Wanyan Aguda, and declared that he had no intention of invading the Jin Kingdom from the north.

But between countries, the so-called trust must also be established on the basis of being able to deter each other.

Now that Jin and Liao are in full swing, Wanyan Sagai did not want to be stabbed in the back by Goryeo, so he issued a mobilization order to the Jurchen ministries on Posu Road and Hese Road adjacent to Goryeo, asking them to strengthen border defenses.

Such an order was also passed on to Wanyan Wulu. 14

7Chapter 17 Layout Yuejiazhuang

Ximenqing occupied a large territory at the mouth of the Yalu River on Posu Road and built castles and ports.

In order to manage the many slaves in the farms and pastures and maintain the order of the port and the market, Ximenqing has armed 2000 people on the territory of Posu Road, handing over to Shi Yong, Jiang Jing, Tao Zongwang and others to lead.

When the eldest princess Wanyan Wulu came to Posu Road from Huining City, she also brought more than 100 Jurchen warriors as her guards.

Therefore, in Wanyan Wulu's eyes, Wanyan Wulu's order to deploy troops was an easily accomplished task.

Ximenqing was not on the territory, so Princess Wanyan Wulu directly made the decision, and arranged for a Jurchen warrior in the escort team to lead [-] archers to the Vaso Mansion to assist in the defense, thus fulfilling the obligations of the Ximenqing tribe.

However, in order for Ximen Qing to return to Posu Road to reunite with him earlier, Wanyan Wulu still wrote a letter asking Jiang Jing and the others to send their confidantes to Yanggu County to inform Ximen Qing of Wanyan's order to change.

When Wanyan Wulu's letter was delivered to Yanggu County, Ximenqing and his party had not yet returned to Yanggu County.

After Ximenqing took Jiao Ting, Yue Fei and others and his good apprentice Wang Chongyang out of Mengzhou, they went all the way north to Yuejiazhuang in Tangyin County, Xiangzhou.

After traveling around with Yue Fei, Wang Gui and others to increase their knowledge, Ximen Qing decided to send them home first so that they could reunite with their families.

Arriving at Yuejiazhuang, Ximen Qing ignored the fatigue of the pommel horse, accompanied by Yue Fei and others, and immediately went to the tomb of his righteous brother Zhou Tong to pay homage.

"Brother, my younger brother is here to visit you again. Can you see that everyone in Pengju has grown up to become a talent?

This time, the little brother took them to Bianliang, Luoyang and Chang'an, which can be regarded as an eye-opener.

By the way, the younger brother even took them to Tongguan, the elder brother's hometown!

After the elder brother left, the younger brother finally lived up to his elder brother's entrustment and taught them all the skills.Pengju and others have all grown into heroes like brothers!

Don't worry, brother, in the future, my younger brother will continue to take care of all the senior nephews so that they can all make great achievements.

Little brother respects elder brother for a bowl, please! "

Ximen Qing tipped the wine bowl in his hand, and poured a bowl of fine wine on Zhou Tong's grave.

"Master! My disciple also respects you with a bowl of wine."

Yue Fei and the others shouted in unison, imitating Ximen Qing's appearance and pouring the wine in their hands into the soil.

Ximen Qing turned around and said to Yue Fei and the others: "Pengju, Brother Yi entrusted you and others to my hands and asked me to take care of you and others.

You are not a sparrow under the eaves, and you will not feel at ease to farm at home and live your whole life.

Uncle Master observes the situation in the world, and within a few years there will be major changes.I want to lead you to do some business, are you willing to follow the uncle? "

Yue Fei and these rural youths traveled here and there with Ximen Qing these days. They wiped out pirates in the East China Sea, recruited relatives through martial arts competitions in the Kingdom of Jin, went to Beijing to fight against the Liao Army, and traveled west to Guanzhong to increase their knowledge.It can be said that there has never been such a wonderful life before.

Living by the side of Master Uncle Ximenqing is the life of a hot-blooded man!

If they were to be separated from Ximen Qing at this time, Yue Fei and the others would not be willing.

Hearing Ximen Qing's question, Yue Fei and others swore in front of Zhou Tong's tomb without hesitation that they were willing to follow Master Ximen Qing to travel the world and do a good job as a man, even if they died, they would not dare to resign.

After hearing this, Ximen Qing held Yue Fei and the others by the hand, looked up to the sky and laughed loudly, soaring into the sky with arrogance.

On the way back to Yuejiazhuang, Ximenqing told Yue Fei and others that after returning from this long trip, he would first stay at home with his parents and family.

One month later, everyone rushed to Yanggu County to reunite with themselves and embark on a new journey.

Wang Gui, Zhang Xian and others are farmers' children. They traveled around with Ximen Qing, and they couldn't take care of their families and help their families share the labor. Ximen Qing would leave enough money and food for their families so that their families had no worries about food and clothing.

Yue Fei, Yao Zheng, and Yue Fan are all children of rich families, Ximen Qing will not give money to their families, and will not accept money from Yue He and Yao Daweng.

Ximenqing's promise to Yue Fei, Yao Zheng, and Yue Fan is that he can teach them all their skills and give them the opportunity to achieve great things.

In addition, it is to include Yuejiazhuang and Yaojiazhuang into the scope of my attention. Whenever there is any disaster or hardship in these two villages, Ximenbao will do its best to rescue them.

Ximen Qing's words made Yue Fei and others have no worries.

Everyone said that they would go to Ximen Fort, Yanggu County together in January, and join Uncle Ximen Qing.
