Chapter 0688: The King of Lanling County
The speed of the court discussion was very fast, and the Empress Dowager Xiao and the emperor insisted on taking the opportunity to give Yelu the heir the king, but the officials couldn't stop it, so they could only quickly discuss the title.
There are still major national events to be discussed later, so there is no need to continue exchanges on this matter.
Eventually, the title of Jerod was decided.
The king of Lanling!
This throne, which was supposed to be given to Xiao Tzu Rin in the year after tomorrow, was born early and promised to a one-year-old child.
And the one-year-old child is still looking for milk in the harem.
The title of Yelu Hei was determined, and it was decided to borrow the money that Yang Qi had left to his nephew from Yelu Hei.
The prerequisites for sending troops are almost ready.
Yang Qi stayed in the Nanguo Money Bank in Shangjing City, how much money did he have.
People who are really worried about this money have more or less carefully investigated, and they have a rough number in their hearts about how much money they have.
So there's no need to confirm it at all.
With money and food, it is natural to discuss the number of troops to be sent next.
After several discussions, the number of troops to be sent was finally decided.
600,000 troops!
The 600,000 troops here are the real elite of the Great Liao, not the rebellious people of the Liao State that Yelu Xiuge brought to Tongtai Pass before.
As a country on horseback, the Liao State has a big advantage when fighting, that is, it does not need to levy too many people.
For 600,000 soldiers and horses, they only need to levy 200,000 people.
Except for the ordnance and most of the grain and grass, the rest of the cavalry can be carried with them, which greatly reduces the pressure of carrying heavy loads.
600,000 troops were dispatched, and 200,000 people were requisitioned.
Yelu Hugo served as the marshal, commanded the war situation, led an army of 300,000, and sat in Jiayuguan, which was the Chinese army.
Yelu Xianzhen served as the commander of the right army, commanded the battle situation on the right road, led an army of 150,000, cooperated with Yang Yanhui's troops in Datong Mansion, and went down Wuzhou to Datong Mansion to resist the Song army.
Han Derang served as the commander of the left army, commanded the battle situation on the left road, led an army of 150,000, cooperated with the soldiers and horses of Youzhou Mansion, and sat in Youzhou.
The left and right armies are subject to the order of Marshal Yelu Hugh of the Chinese Army.
After discussing the matter of sending troops, hundreds of officials in the court began to step up preparations for war.
When he was about to disperse, Han Derang suddenly spoke, making the Manchu Dynasty civil and military stunned, only to see Han Derang bow down and ask the Empress Dowager Xiao, "Queen Mother, the old minister heard that Zhao Guangyi promised Yang Yansi the prince of this war, and ordered Yang Yansi to lead his soldiers and horses to serve as the vanguard of the left army.
Previously, the Queen Mother had used a trick to force Yang Yansi to participate in the battle at Tongtai Pass. Can we do it again now?
After all, Yang Yansi's soldiers and horses have good combat strength, and being able to force Yang Yansi back can not only reduce the pressure on our army, but also weaken the strength of the Song army, killing two birds with one stone. ”
Empress Dowager Xiao, who was about to lead the little emperor back to the harem, heard this, and her face froze.
She wanted to scold.
Is this palace still shameless?
This kind of shameful thing, this palace is already ashamed to use it once, and then use it?
Where to put Hongu's face?
Besides, in this kind of big war of life and death, how could Yang Yansi be able to give in because of a mere threat?
However, even if Empress Dowager Xiao had a thousand grievances in her heart, she couldn't say it.
She threatened Yang Qi with her little nephew, this kind of thing can't be put on the table at all, let alone come up with it.
She could only smash her teeth and swallow in her stomach.
Empress Dowager Xiao said with a stiff expression on her face: "Let's try it in this palace......"
Han Derang naturally didn't know what Empress Dowager Xiao was thinking, and when he saw that Empress Dowager Xiao agreed, he bowed down and said, "Then there is Empress Dowager Lao." ”
Went down.
Empress Dowager Xiao led the little emperor back to the harem, originally wanted to admonish two sentences, and at the same time prepared to tell the little emperor why he forced the hundred officials to promise to give the little grandson the king today.
However, being made such a fuss by Han Derang, Empress Dowager Xiao didn't have this mind.
"Mother, Mother......"
In the call of the little emperor, the Empress Dowager Xiao came back to her senses, looking at the clear eyes of the little emperor, the Empress Dowager Xiao smiled slightly, "Go play......"
The little emperor got the approval of the Empress Dowager Xiao, and like a wild horse that broke free from the reins, he jumped to the harem.
He wants to see his little nephew, and tell his little nephew about his performance in court today, and proudly tell his little nephew the story of how he outwitted his ministers in order to crown his little nephew as king.
Although the little guy couldn't understand it, the little emperor felt that it was necessary for him to find a sense of superiority as an uncle in front of the little nephew.
As soon as the little emperor left, Empress Dowager Xiao paced in the side hall alone.
She hesitated for a long, long time, and finally decided to write another letter to Yang Qi.
As for whether it was useful or not, she could not assert.
But even the slightest chance should be given a try.
After all, what if it happens?
If it happens, Da Liao's chances of winning against Da Song will be 20% more.
This time's letter is far less sassy than the last one.
She just copied the edict canonizing Yeluhei in Khitan and Chinese, and attached some words about the name given by the little emperor to Yeluhei.
Empress Dowager Xiao didn't plan to send another letter to Lao Yang, she was only going to send it to Yang Qi alone.
After the letter was written, Empress Dowager Xiao ordered the messenger of Liao to send the letter out in an expedited manner.
From Daliao to Datongfu City in the northwest, although the road is far away, if you rush it with 800 miles, it will take half a month to arrive.
When the army assembled by the Great Liao left the capital, Yang Qi received a letter from the Empress Dowager Xiao.
Inside the study of the Yang Mansion.
Yang Qi, who had just read the letter sent by Zhao Guangyi, saw Peng Pai holding a letter and hurriedly entered the study before he could breathe a sigh of relief.
"Young master, a letter from Liao."
Yang Qihu suspiciously took the letter in Peng Pai's hand, the letter was quite thick, indicating that there were a lot of things inside.
Recently, Yang Qi had also received a lot of letters from spies lurking in the Liao Kingdom, so he didn't pay much attention to this letter.
While opening the letter, he asked Peng Pai, "Is the volcano guard or the scarecrow?" With such a thick collapse, I must have heard a lot of things! ”
Peng Pai was stunned and said with a wry smile: "Xiao Zhuo sent someone to send it." ”
"Xiao Zhuo?"
Yang Qi was obviously stunned, looked down at the belief that had been opened by him, frowned slightly, and then smiled, "It seems to be an edict for canonization, a manuscript, not the original." Could it be that Xiao Zhuo's woman knew that I was going to help the Great Song Dynasty fight the Liao Kingdom, so she took the opportunity to win me over? ”
The smile on Yang Qi's face didn't last long before disappearing.
Because he saw the contents of the edict.
When he saw the words 'Yeluhei', Yang Qi frowned obviously, and a trace of displeasure flashed on his face.
Why do people in the Yang family have the surname Yelu?
Could it be that Yelu is more noble than the surname Yang?
Joke!
Yang Qi, who has received nine years of compulsory education since he was a child, deeply understands a truth.
That is, there are no noble surnames, only noble people.
What about royalty? Who hasn't had a few emperors yet?
The truly noble are those who have made significant contributions to humanity, to the nation, and to the country.
Noble surname?
It's a fart!
