The Liao Kingdom had developed well over the years and they had never thought that their country would be destroyed.

Geriletana was thrown from Qi to the border of Liao by Yang Hanfeng, so Yang Hanfeng went to find Li Ziwei.

The old tutor Wang Can sent to assist Li Ziwei was named Zhu. When Yang Hanfeng arrived, Tutor Zhu was teaching Li Ziwei how to write memorials.

Li Ziwei couldn't even write his own name properly, let alone write memorials. After asking him, we found out that Li Ziwei had only attended a private school for two years, and it was the clan school in the village, where he attended classes for free.

Yang Hanfeng was listening on the side. Seeing Li Ziwei's face turned red and his neck became thick due to being scolded by Master Zhu, he was not angry and his attitude was very good.

After Master Zhu finished scolding, he saw Yang Hanfeng.

"Don't be discouraged," the old tutor said, "Your Majesty has never been to school, but you see, your Majesty's handwriting is very good, unique and full of character."

In the eyes of the old tutor, Yin Jinan was the real genius – he had never been to school and was in poor health, but now he was not only proficient in both civil and military affairs, but also had a good way of governing the country, and the State of Qi was on the verge of prospering.

Li Ziwei had seen Yang Hanfeng a long time ago. He was finally released by Master Zhu. He asked hurriedly what was the matter.

Yang Hanfeng said that His Majesty had found out that Zhao Qiaoqiao's real name was Gerletana, and she was Ulan Batu's youngest daughter. She changed her makeup, colluded with Zhao Song, and pretended to be Zhao Song's daughter.

Li Ziwei said: "I have also found out similar information, that is, when Ulan Bator sent troops to invade the previous dynasty (Western Xia), all other cities fell, and only Zejin City remained intact. With Zhao Song's level, it is impossible for him to defend it. He is just a puppet of the Liao Kingdom."

In fact, he also found out that Zhao Song's family were all paralyzed on one side of their bodies. Unfortunately, it was His Majesty who ordered someone to do it. After all, Zhao Song directly harmed Princess Longxiang.

However, Li Ziwei knew that some things should be kept to oneself and not spoken out.

Yang Hanfeng stationed the 1,000 Tiger and Leopard Cavalry he brought with him in Changjin City. Li Ziwei certainly had no objection, but these cities had been occupied by the Liao army for more than half a year and there was almost no food. How could he raise food and fodder for His Majesty?

Master Zhu asked him how he planned to get food and fodder.

Li Ziwei said: "I want to get grain quickly now, and I have to ask those big grain households to willingly give out grain."

"What can you do?"

"Old Master, please take a look!"

He wrote a notice the next day. Although the handwriting was crooked, the expression was very down-to-earth.

1. The northern border is dry and rainy all year round, so a rain-praying temple needs to be built. There should be fifty large and small altars in the temple, which can enjoy incense for thousands of years. The main altar will have one million stones of grain, and the other altars will gradually have lower values.

2. The government set up a roadside stall for daily winnings, and drew prizes on the spot, with one draw for every bushel of grain.

He explained the settings, and Master Zhu was immediately delighted. This guy looked a bit unreliable, but he was definitely efficient and had a sharp mind.

Li Ziwei posted a notice and asked some people to register to build a temple and sell the shrine. He also knew that there would be many people waiting and watching, so he pinned his hopes on winning every day.

He was also generous and never cheated at all. He would cash in any prize he found on the spot.

Everyone could get the silver immediately by cashing in the prizes. Many people could get one or even five taels of silver for every bushel of grain. There were huge crowds of people who came to draw their prizes.

Taifu Zhu watched as Li Ziwei arranged for the military officers to draw prizes everywhere. A group of people were busy writing and stamping awards to prevent cheating.

When Yin Jinan and Gu Bahuang's armies arrived at the border, Li Ziwei managed to raise 600,000 dan of grain by using this seemingly inferior method.

Tutor Zhu was very satisfied with this result and praised Yin Jinan highly in front of him, saying that this boy is teachable.

He also said that he would live with Li Ziwei in his old age and watch him move up step by step.

Yin Jinan was also happy. Six hundred thousand shi of grain and grass were enough to support the conquest of the Liao Kingdom.

Li Ziwei was so jealous when he saw the iron mine brought by Yin Jinan.

Yin Jinan said, "I will arrange a good military supervisor for you later. You should learn from him carefully. I will also leave the security of the border to you in the future."

Li Ziwei wanted to smash Yin Jin'an's head and promised him that he would manage the border well, but he blinked and said, "Your Majesty, if we defeat the Liao Dynasty, this place will no longer be a border, right?"

Yin Jinan said: "You have done a good job. The whole north is under your jurisdiction."

Li Ziwei kowtowed immediately and said that he would never slack off in his life and would work hard.

The armies of Qi and Yulong marched towards Liao, and the two countries went to war at the same time.

Ulaanbaatar did not hand over Geriletana.

Gerile Tana was one of the important officials of the Liao Dynasty. She was not only proficient in both civil and military affairs, but also in charge of the Liao Dynasty's spies and had a mastery of forbidden techniques.

The war started on the tenth day of June. Geriletana and her brother Ulanyito fought against the State of Qi, while the general He Cong and the Tianshan genius doctor Jiang Yi fought against the State of Yulong.

Tianshan miraculous doctor Jiang Yi is Gerletana's Taoist master.

Xie Zhaozhao was on the chariot, looking at the enemy camp through a telescope.

Although this telescope is much more primitive than the later telescopes that Guan Yingying mentioned, it is sufficient for the present and is advanced enough.

There were no tall buildings at the moment, and she could see the opponent clearly from dozens of miles away in the chariot.

Gu Chongjin formulated the attack method and rhythm and asked Xie Zhaozhao to watch them fight.

Xie Rongyu's spies had already discovered that Liao had invited Jiang Yi, and told Xie Zhaozhao: "Your Majesty, the other party is likely to use evil magic."

Xie Zhaozhao wanted to say calmly: "No matter if it's witchcraft or something else, explode!"

However, we must also conduct more reconnaissance and spying to reduce casualties.

Jiang Yi is good at deduction and forbidden techniques, but Jiu Tian and Xie Zhaozhao think that this practice belongs to a cult.

Because whether it is deduction or forbidden techniques, the prerequisite for implementation is blood sacrifice, that is, killing people.

Before Xie Zhaozhao's army arrived, he deduced Xie Zhaozhao's itinerary and sent his most brave and capable general, He Cong, to fight at the border.

This location was indeed the entry point for Xie Zhaozhao to lead her army to attack Liao. Jiang Yi's deduction was very correct. When her army came in smoke and dust, He Zhen couldn't help but laugh: "Little girl, don't even think about going back alive if you come here."

Jiang Yi and Gerletana, one in the east and the other in the southwest, used a forbidden spell similar to the Nine Heavens against the Yulong Kingdom and the Qi Kingdom.

The function of this taboo is: whatever comes will be bounced back.

In other words, whenever Xie Zhaozhao threw his iron mine, it would bounce back and kill himself.

If Xie Zhaozhao didn't know about Jiang Yi's taboo, the explosives thrown by Crown Prince Zhou Qiheng's vanguard camp would probably have destroyed the vanguard camp first.

He Cong sat on a warhorse, holding a long spear in his hand, and behind him followed the Liao Kingdom's "million-strong" army.

Two miles away (one thousand meters), Zhou Qiheng was wearing golden armor and holding a spear. Gu Chongjin was not far behind him.

Zhou Qiheng learned the spear skills from him. This was Zhou Qiheng's first time facing a big battle, and he was worried.

He Cong was not an ordinary general. He was brave and resourceful, much more powerful than Bater who invaded Qi (Western Xia).

Zhou Qiheng observed the other team and decided that in the first battle, they must boost morale and win.

He was the vanguard general of the weapons battalion, but he would rather use the spear in his hand to knock He Cong off his horse.

In the front is the throwing team, responsible for throwing mines to disrupt the enemy camp and alarm the enemy's horses. After the mines are thrown, the vanguard camp and the left and right wings will immediately charge over.

The throwing team lined up in a row, with two people in each group, one responsible for throwing and the other responsible for igniting and passing the mine.

"Vanguard Camp, prepare--"

"Swish~" A cloud-piercing arrow flew towards He Cong, making a loud noise and leaving a long smoke trail.
