I will never be Renzong

Chapter 204 Liao Rebellion

In the Huaqing Pavilion, Yeli Qiuyue suddenly learned that her elder brother Yeli Wangrong had died in battle and that Yeli's family was exterminated, she couldn't help but feel devastated, and hadn't had a drop of water for three days and three nights.

"Concubine Yue, are you still not eating anything?"

When Zhao Zhen came down to court, he suddenly heard that Concubine Yue couldn't eat, so he came to visit. When he first came, he saw the maids took away a mouthful of untouched food.

"Officials! Your Majesty has been dripping water for three days and three nights. If this continues, I'm afraid my body will be stretched!"

A female medical officer said worriedly.

"You guys go and get some porridge, and I'll go and persuade you!"

Zhao Zhen didn't expect Li Yuanhao to be so ruthless, not only killed Yeli Wangrong, but also exterminated Yeli's family, probably because Zhao Zhen put a green hat on him!

Zhao Zhen walked to the bedroom, but saw Ye Li Qiuyue was sitting on the bed blankly, his face was very pale, and he looked very weak.

"Official!"

Seeing Zhao Zhen coming in, Yeli Qiuyue hurriedly got up to salute Zhao Zhen, but because she hadn't had a drop of water for a few days, she couldn't help feeling a little dizzy and fell forward.

Seeing this, Zhao Zhen hurriedly hugged Yeli Qiuyue in his arms, and helped him to the bed beside him, and said with distress: "My concubine! I know how deep the pain of losing a loved one is, but people are like iron and rice is steel. How can the concubine be so careless about tea and rice?"

"Official family! Our Ye Li family is loyal to his Li family, why can he be so ruthless in fright? Is he still human?"

Ye Li Qiuyue snuggled into Zhao Zhen's arms and said in tears.

Zhao Zhen gently patted Ye Li Qiuyue on the shoulder and said: "Li Yuanhao is not a human being, he is a ferocious demon. But don't worry, my dear concubine, I have sent an army to conquer this thief. This time, I will definitely kill him." I won’t let him go!”

Yeli Qiuyue cried: "Even if I betrayed him and married into an official family, our Yeli family is a pure party member! Why does he treat his own people like this and kill them all?"

Zhao Zhen sighed, and then said: "Some people always think that by relying on savagery and brutal killings, they can make others respect him, and then seek to conquer the world. Li Yuanhao has already lost the hearts of the Dangxiang clan if the benevolent government goes to conquer, and a person without roots will not be far away!"

"Come here! Serve the bird's nest porridge!"

Zhao Zhen yelled outside, then glanced at Yeli Qiuyue, who was weak in his arms, and said, "Although Aifei has lost her family, Aifei still has family members. Both Zhen and Chuchun are Aifei's family members. Even if it is for Zhen and Chuchun , Concubine Ai should also take good care of her body, are you right?"

A court lady came in with a bowl of bird's nest porridge. Nori Qiuyue glanced at it and said, "The official family! The slave family really can't eat it!"

Seeing this, Zhao Zhen took the porridge in his hand, then turned away from the palace maid, and said: "You have to eat even if you can't eat it. My beloved, you must take good care of your body, so that you can take care of Chuchun, serve me, and then give me children." !”

After Zhao Zhen finished speaking, she fed Yeli Qiuyue herself, and she didn't feel relieved until she finished a bowl of bird's nest porridge and saw Yeli Qiuyue's face improve slightly.After saying some comforting words, Zhao Zhen put Ye Li Qiuyue on the bed and covered her with a quilt until Ye Li Qiuyue fell asleep in his arms.

In the Chongzheng Palace, Zhao Zhen stayed alone, and in front of him were maps of Tubo and Liangzhou. Although Zhao Zhen made sufficient preparations, the balance of the war was tilted towards the Song Dynasty, but some things will change in a short while. Still can't change.

There is no problem for the Song army to defeat Tubo in the Qingtang Dynasty, but whether they can use their troops to get a direct result cannot be taken lightly. After all, altitude sickness is difficult to overcome. You must know the reason why the prosperous Tang Dynasty did not destroy Tubo in history. Also because of altitude sickness.

"Officials! Commander Yang is here!"

The servant Zhang Mao walked in and spoke.

"pass!"

The Song Dynasty dispatched 20 troops to fight, and what Zhao Zhen was worried about was that the Liao Congress would take action, so Zhao Zhen had previously asked Yang Chongxun to pay attention to the developments in the Liao Kingdom.

In August of the seventh year of Tiansheng, Dayanlin, a rebel from Tokyo in Liao Kingdom, imprisoned Xiao Xiaoxian, the left-behind son-in-law of Tokyo, and Princess Nanyang, the fourth daughter of Emperor Shengzong of Liao Dynasty, and killed Han Shaoxun, Wang Jia, Xiao Pode, the household envoys, and others. And he established himself as emperor, the name of the country was Xingliao, and the name of the year was changed to Tianqing.

At the beginning, in the land of Eastern Liao Dynasty, after Yelu Abaoji, Taizu of the Liao Dynasty founded the country, there was no wine monopoly and laws about salt and oil, and the taxes collected for buying and selling goods in the market were very small.

After Feng Yanlin and Han Shaoxun came to power, they began to set up tax laws to collect taxes. Because the tax rate was too high, the people of Liaodong resented and thought disorderly.And Yandi suffered from a great famine, Liao officials came up with a way to quench their thirst, that is to build ships, recruit people who are familiar with sea transportation, and transport Liaodong rice grains to relieve the people of Youyan.

However, the shipbuilding technology of the Liao State was not as good as that of the Song Dynasty. Moreover, there were many dry ducks in the north, and the waterways were very dangerous. Most of the ships were buried in the sea.Some people didn't want to go, but they were beaten by the government officials, so the people of Liaodong resented and thought about chaos.

So Dayanlin took the opportunity to revolt and first killed the corrupt officials Feng Yanlin and Han Shaoxun to win the hearts of the people.Before the uprising, Dayanlin and Wang Daoping, who stayed behind in Tokyo, conspired to leave. Wang Daoping pretended to agree, but secretly abandoned his family and fled overnight, and ran to inform Liao Shengzong Yelulongchu.

After Yelu Longchu learned about it, he immediately recruited soldiers from all walks of life to attack Dayanlin.The uncle of the country, Xiao Bidi, first led his troops to occupy the key points and cut off Dayanlin's westward plan.

When Dayanlin knew about it, she wrote to Xia Xingmei, the Taibao of Bohai Sea, asking him to kill Yelupugu, the commander of the garrison, and replace him. However, Xia Xingmei did not want Xia Xingmei to hand over the letter to Yelupugu, so Yelupugu killed him in response to Dayanlin. There are more than 800 guards, thus cutting off Dayanlin's way to attack westward.

After Dayanlin learned that there was no response from Huanglong Mansion and Baozhou, she divided her troops to attack Shenzhou westward. Shenzhou Jiedu envoy Xiao Wang arrived at Liuchu, and his deputy Zhang Jie claimed to surrender, so Dayanlin did not attack the city immediately.

But later he knew that he had been played by Zhang Jie, so he attacked the city in anger, but the city had already been prepared, so he returned invincible.

Since the Liao Kingdom implemented a cruel exploitation system for the Jurchen tribes, all the Jurchen tribes in the north and south surrendered to Dayanlin. Seeing that the situation in the Liao Kingdom was chaotic, Gaoli delayed paying tribute on the grounds that the war was in chaos and the roads were blocked.

After Zhao Zhende learned the news last year, he thought that the time had come to regain the land of Youyan. However, at that time, drought broke out on Hebei Road, Shandong Road, Shanxi Road, and Shaanxi Road. If it were not for the support of potatoes and corn, Coupled with the fact that Zhao Zhen transported grain to the north regardless of the cost and then used work as relief, I am afraid that the number of refugees will exceed one million.

And the Song Dynasty also lost a great opportunity to capture the Sixteen States of Yanyun.
