Chapter 423: The Khitan's Dilemma

In fact, Cui Geng was also quite puzzled.

Sun Yangao and Fan Guanglie, aren't they the two dogs of the Khitans? Without Sun Wanrong's order, they really dare to bite? Moreover, even if Sun Wanrong didn't stop him for some reason, why didn't he make a move?

But it's useless to figure it out, the situation has taken a turn for the worse.

"Whoa!"

Six sergeants dressed as Tang Army stepped up, flew up with a kick, and kicked Cui Geng to the ground.

Two people pressed their arms, two people pressed their legs, and two people held big sticks above their heads, and they were about to be executed.

Radami Zhu still wanted to resist, but a dagger pulled out by Li Kaigu was placed across his neck, and he said coldly: "Princess, offended, don't make it difficult for the general." ”

Fan Guanglie said proudly: "Cui Geng, do you think that you are still a writer of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and this official is just a small Dingzhou recorder to join the army?" Wrong, totally wrong! Now I am a sword, and you are a fish. Come on, listen to the orders of the official......"

"Do it!" The two said in unison.

One is Fan Guanglie, and the other is King Xi Su Yun!

Whoosh~~

Before the two sergeants' sticks could fall, dozens of quick arrows flew in, stabbing them into hedgehogs.

The other four sergeants were also not pleased, and each was hit by eight arrows, all of which were vital parts, and fell to the ground with a "poof", apparently dead.

Immediately afterwards, the figure flashed, and Su Yun came to Fan Guanglie's approach, pointed forward with his waist knife, and said: "The surname Fan, move my friend of the Xi clan, I think you are tired and crooked!" ”

The situation changed so fast that Fan Guanglie couldn't believe his eyes and said, "You...... You...... How dare you? ”

Su Yun shrugged his shoulders and said nonchalantly: "Why don't you dare?" Now, man, this king has been killed, what do you want? Is the Tang people going to war with our Xi people, or is the Khitan going to war with our Xi people? Listen to it! ”

"Nephew Su Xian laughed!"

At this time, Sun Wanrong's heart was not to mention how happy he was, but an impartial expression appeared on his face, and said: "The Khitan and the Xi people are in the same spirit, one is lost, and the other is prosperous, how can they fight each other." As for the Tang Army...... Well, it's also our ally, and it's too late to get close, let alone do it. ”

Su Yun glanced obliquely at Fan Guanglie and said, "Oh? The Tang army is also an ally of the Xi people? Then why did this Fan Changshi do it to this king's friend? ”

Fan Guanglie was so angry in his heart, how did I know that Cui Geng would make friends with you in the past two days? Besides, even if you are really friends, you will not be unpredictable and prophetic, so send Xi Jun to support him, what is going on?

How did he know that Sun Shuwen's identity was a little embarrassing, and Su Yun was transferring troops to guard against Sun Wanrong. As a result, it was not used on the Khitan people, but it was used to entertain him Fan Guanglie.

But no matter what, the situation is stronger than people, Fan Guanglie couldn't afford to offend King Xi, so he had to give a deep salute and said: "It's the lower officials who are reckless, and please ask King Xi Haihan." ”

Su Yun snorted in his nose and said, "It's pretty much the same." ”

Immediately, he pointed to Cui Geng and said: "Although Cui Shu is a prisoner of your Khitans, he is also a friend of this king. If anyone hurts half of his hair, I'll let him pay for it!" Farewell! ”

After finishing speaking, he said hello and left with Sun Shuwen and Xi Jun.

Of course, Sun Wanrong knew that Xiao Jiujiu in Su Yun's heart did not stop him, and once again smiled and beckoned Cui Geng and the others into the city.

I heard that the famous "Cui Qingtian" came, and the Khitan people helped the old and the young, greeted each other on the side of the road, and even some people put out melons, fruits, pears, peaches, delicacies and other things, burning incense and praying.

Li Kaigu took the opportunity to publicize that it was Cui Geng who killed Qin Yong. Although there are people who know Qin Yong and those who don't know Qin Yong, but what kind of good thing can that be the people in the Jin Division? The people were thunderous again, and the sound of "Cui Qingtian" was endless.

Seeing this situation, Sun Wanrong secretly scolded Fan Guanglie thousands of times. If he hadn't made it outside the city, he would have been able to take the opportunity to persuade Cui Geng to surrender now. It's good now, because of his performance just now, can Cui Geng believe in the sincerity of the Khitan?

Moreover, not only can't you mention Cui Geng's surrender now, but you can't mention it at today's reception banquet. Otherwise, Fan Guanglie would have come up with something like this, and this matter would be really hopeless.

Therefore, at the reception banquet for Cui Geng and Radamizhu that day, Sun Wanrong not only never talked about state affairs, but also ordered two Meiji to stabilize Sun Yangao and Fan Guanglie, and reluctantly dealt with the past.

……

……

That night, Cui Geng was placed under house arrest in the room.

Li Kaigu bowed deeply with an embarrassed face, and said: "Cui Shushu, today's daytime, the last general is really sorry!" ”

"Sit down."

Cui Geng knew that there was something going on here, so he didn't complain about him, and said suspiciously: "This official doesn't understand, it is said that Sun Yangao and Fan Guanglie are not even a fart in front of your khan!" What do you think of today's meaning, is it that you Khitans are afraid of the two of them? ”

"Well, it's not that I'm afraid, but now, we Khitan really have a request for others......"

Anyway, he was not afraid of Cui Geng leaking the news, and Li Kaigu bluntly told the Khitan people about their predicament.

In fact, since the death of Li Quanzhong, the Khitans have begun to decline. The Khitan is divided into eight divisions, and the strongest is Li Qianzhong's Fenwen Division. In descending order, Sun Wanrong's protrusion and He Yongchang's pendant.

Li was childless, and passed the throne to Sun Wanrong after his death.

This Fen Wen tribe is the strongest, but the khan is not from his own tribe, can the breath in his heart be smooth? Therefore, despite Li Quanzhong's will, they did not support Sun Wanrong as a khan by no means, but they did not oppose it.

The Sudden Bow Department and the Falling Jin Department have always been at odds, and the strength of the two sides is about the same, plus He Yongchang thinks that he is a competitor for the Khan position, and he disobeys Sun Wanrong's orders.

With his example, the other five departments have learned the same, and they don't take Sun Wanrong very seriously.

Therefore, although Sun Wanrong is now called "Khan", his actual power is similar to that of the previous "Eight Ministries Alliance Chief", and he is powerless to restrain the ministries at all.

The second battle between the Zhou army and the Khitan, if it wasn't for Li Duozuo's release, the Khitan army would have to finish the game at that time.

It is said that in this case, the best strategy for the Khitan is to hurry up and talk to Da Zhou and seek respite. Opportunity to breathe. But Li Xian's side couldn't wait, and the officials of the five states couldn't wait, so they asked Sun Wanrong to go south immediately, and with their cooperation, the five states would definitely be able to pass on the agreement.

The intentions of the two sides were quite good, but the military discipline of the Khitan army was too bad, which made the people miserable, and uprisings broke out one after another, and the military supply of the Khitans became a big problem.

At this time, it was time for Sun Yangao and the original magistrates to contribute, they knew which big local households had grain in stock, and they barely guaranteed the military supply of the Khitan with "great righteousness".

In addition, the Khitan population was not large, and it was difficult to occupy such a large territory, so it had to set up a puppet government on the basis of those Tang officials who surrendered. power, gather the soldiers, and pacify the place.

Gradually, the Tang Army turned out to have a lot of power.

Although, on the whole, the Khitan army is definitely much stronger than the Tang army. But Sun Wanrong has too many constraints, and in the face of Fan Guanglie and others, he really can't be tough. Even with it, Li Kaigu was afraid of affecting the relationship between the Khitans and the Tang people, so he could only swallow his anger.

As for King Xi Su Yun? The Xi people did not send many troops, and they could attack and retreat and defend, so they didn't need to look at the eyes of the Tang army at all. On the contrary, if Fan Guanglie offended Su Yun to death and the Xi people withdrew, politically, it would be a huge blow to the coalition forces.

After Cui Geng finished listening, he couldn't help but joke: "Pitiful, pitiful, even Fan Guanglie can be bullied, is Sun Wanrong still a famous Khitan Khan?" It's completely a gas bag. I said what are you Khitan people trying to rebel against, this is better when you are under the rule of the Great Zhou. ”

Li Kaigu's old face flushed, and explained: "It can't be said that said, although Fan Guanglie is only a governor of Dingzhou now, he is actually the liaison between the Tang Army and our Khitan Army, and his status is much higher than that of Sun Yangao." ”

This statement is not surprising to Cui Geng, when he was in Wohu Mountain, Fan Guanglie also fooled Huang Youwei to kill Sun Yangao. It can be seen that this person's status in the Tang Army is quite not low, I am afraid that the original idea was to recruit Sun Yangao if he could, and if the solicitation was not successful, he would be killed directly.

Cui Geng's eyes flashed, and he said, "Oh? Is it? Fan Guanglie has such a status in the Tang Army? I don't know who is in charge of the Tang Army now? ”
