Chapter 267 From now on, we are half brothers!
Chen Ran only encountered two Jin Wanhu on the Yinshan side, which was still not enough.
The reason was that the main force of the Jin army broke through Juyongguan and was sweeping across the Nanjing Road of the Liao Kingdom.
Yelu Dashi, who was guarding Nanjing Road, led his troops to resist, but was unable to defeat the Jin people.
Seeing that he could no longer stay in Nanjing, he hurriedly fled to Yinshan to look for the Liao emperor who had escaped and was hiding there.
He was unlucky and met Wanyan Loushi on the way.
All his troops were wiped out in the battle, so he had no choice but to surrender to save his life.
Lou Shi asked him to be a guide and lead the way to capture Emperor Tianzuo of Liao.
This is the origin of Yelu Dashi's stay in the Jin camp.
In history, Yelu Dashi was a hero who was able to restart a business and establish Western Liao when his country was in danger of being destroyed.
After a brief moment of embarrassment, he quickly returned to normal. "Liao and Song are brotherly countries. The Liao is now facing rebellion. I'm sure the king will certainly provide assistance."
"I met with Master Ma in Nanjing (Beijing) a few months ago and discussed cooperation. I dare to ask the king to lend us troops to help the Liao Dynasty."
Chen Ran destroyed the Song court, but he had not yet proclaimed himself emperor and founded a new country, so Yelu Dashi still referred to himself as Song.
In addition, without the historical Northern Expedition to the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, the relationship between Liao and Song was still pretty good.
Especially this time, Chen Ran took the initiative to attack and wiped out the famous Wanyan Loushi's troops in one fell swoop. In Yelu Dashi's view, there was great hope of an alliance with Song to resist Jin.
"Daishi Rin Ya (Daishi Hanlin) has a point."
Chen Ran smiled warmly and nodded repeatedly, "Then please ask Dashi Linya to lead the way and go to the Liao Emperor to discuss the matter of resisting the Jin."
When Yelu Dashi was taken out to rest, Chen Ran immediately put away his smile.
Among all the generals in the tent, Han Shizhong was the first to speak, "Your Majesty, the Khitans are not good people. Every time we gain an advantage over the Tanguts, they come out to cause trouble and threaten us not to fight again."
"Yes, my king." With someone taking the lead, the other generals expressed their opinions one after another, saying that aiding the Liao Kingdom was not a good thing.
Wu Jie even said bluntly, "Although there has been no major war between the two countries in the past hundred years, the Khitans have never stopped raiding the grasslands and the people living on the border have suffered greatly. If we help Liao, I am afraid the people will be uneasy."
"I only said I wanted to resist the Jin, but I didn't say I wanted to help the Liao." Chen Ran frowned and said sternly, "You said it like I wanted to sell out my country. I'm not Zhao Ji and his son."
The generals saluted hurriedly and said they dared not.
The relationship between Liao and Song was actually quite good officially, but very bad among the people.
Especially in the border areas between the two countries, the Liao people plundered the grasslands, killed people, looted and committed all kinds of atrocities every year, and their reputation among the people was extremely bad.
"Don't you think that the Liao Emperor is a rare commodity?"
Faced with Chen Ran's question, most people scratched their heads.
At most, they had heard of this word, but they had no idea how the Liao Emperor made such a rare commodity.
At this time, the importance of the mind is reflected.
"Your Majesty," Qu Duan stepped forward and asked, "Do you want to capture the Liao emperor and use him as a threat to control the other lords?"
"That's rude of you to say."
Chen Ran waved his hand lazily. "We are inviting the Liao emperor to be our guest. We are using his name to handle some matters that are inconvenient for us to handle. The Khitans still have some strength and can be used for our own benefit."
"In fact, there is one benefit to the rise of the Jin people." He said calmly, "Using their hands, we can wipe out all the tribes on the grassland and avoid the situation where tribes rise up every hundred years."
"Your Majesty." Wu Jie looked puzzled. "The Jin people mainly attacked the Khitans, and other ethnic groups were not a big deal."
"If I say there's something wrong, then there's something wrong!"
Chen Ran simply responded, "Whoever disobeys will be labeled as a Tongjin!"
The Liao Emperor, Yelu Yanxi, has always been regarded as a useless and incompetent ruler. Before Zhao Ji and his son revealed their cowardly nature, Yelu Yanxi had always been labeled as a useless and incompetent ruler.
Compared with the officials of Zhao Song, although Yelu Yanxi could not defeat the Jin people, he fled every time he failed. After escaping, he would find ways to accumulate strength, and when he had strength, he would fight the Jin people again, and this cycle would repeat over and over again.
To put it simply, we fight and fail over and over again, but we keep fighting.
If nothing else, at least he dares to fight!
The Zhao Song officials were born cowardly, and they lost their courage. Are they worthy of the surname Zhao?
At this time, Yelu Yanxi was hiding in Jiashan, which was Fengzhou (Hohhot) in the Tang Dynasty.
It’s not far from Wuyuan.
When he saw Yelu Dashi, he immediately frowned and said, "How dare you come to see me, you traitor?"
This is for a reason.
After Yelu Yanxi was defeated and fled, Yelu Dashi and others in Nanjing supported Yelu Chun as the new king.
In the feudal era, such things were considered the crime of deceiving the emperor and punishable by the extermination of all nine generations of the clan.
Yelu Dashi saluted calmly and explained, "Your Majesty has the power of the whole country, but you can't stop the enemy. You abandoned the country and fled far away, causing the people to live in dire straits. Even if you establish ten Yelu Chuns, they are all descendants of Taizu. Isn't it better than begging others to spare your life?"
Historical books have a very low opinion of Yelu Yanxi, mainly because he was defeated in the war and his country was destroyed.
Also, I was neighbors with Zhao Ji and his son in Wuguo City.
Zhao Ji and his son had a very bad reputation, and their neighbors were also unlucky and had a bad reputation.
But in fact, Yelu Yanxi was quite magnanimous. He forgave Yelu Dashi in history, and the same is true now.
"Forget it, there is no point in talking more." Yelu Yanxi waved his hand. "How many soldiers did you bring?"
Yelu Dashi responded quickly, "I came alone on horseback."
Yelu Yanxi'(╯'–')┻━┻'
"You are useless!" After scolding for a few words, he relaxed his tone and said, "It's good that you can come. I will give you wine and meat and a mansion. Go and rest first."
"His Majesty."
Yelu Dashi told the whole story in one breath, "Although I came here alone, I brought the Song army with me! A full 100,000-strong army!" In fact, there were only over 40,000 combat soldiers around Chen Ran, and the rest were Tanguts captured along the way, who were used as laborers.
In order to boost morale, Yelu Dashi directly praised everyone as if they were soldiers.
If Chen Ran hadn't stopped him, he would have said 300,000 troops.
"What?!" Yelu Yanxi was shocked. "You actually surrendered to the southern barbarians?"
Dashi was helpless, but he also understood.
After all, during those years of war with the Jin people, there were too many defectors, and even many people with the surname Yelu defected to the Jin people.
He had no choice but to narrate what had happened to him.
Of course, the story of him being captured by the Jin people and used as a guide to find the emperor had to be embellished by saying that he was defeated in battle, captured after being wounded, and then the Song people defeated the Jin people and rescued him.
"The Song people defeated the Jurchens?" Yelu Yanxi felt that there was something wrong with his understanding. "How is it possible?"
"I can't believe it either." Yelu Dashi simply spread his hands, "But it is true. I witnessed the whole process. Even Wanyan Loushi had his head chopped off."
"Okay! Okay!! Okay!!!"
Upon learning that Wanyan Loushi had been killed, Yelu Yanxi was overjoyed and shouted "good" three times in a row.
He suffered too many losses at the hands of Wanyan Loushi, especially when he was guarding Budagang, the elite troops under his command were defeated by Wanyan Loushi's strong attacks.
Dashilinya then told the emperor, who was in a remote place and had no idea of many news, about the many changes that had happened in the world in recent days.
For example, when the Jin army swept across Nanjing Road, a hero emerged on the Song side, overthrew the Zhao Song government, and even sent troops to suppress the Dangxiang people of Western Xia and so on.
"quick!"
Yelu Yanxi was overjoyed and stood up excitedly, "Introduce me quickly!"
When you have strength, everyone smiles when you meet them, you hear warm words, and everyone is polite to each other.
If you don't have the strength, I can beat you whenever I want.
If I didn’t hit you today, it’s just because I didn’t want to hit you today!
Outside Fengzhou City, Yelu Yanxi saw with his own eyes the endless Song army, and wrinkles appeared on his haggard face from smiling.
He approached Chen Ran enthusiastically, performed the brotherly ceremony, and invited him into the city for a banquet.
Even though he was in poverty, the Liao emperor still maintained a high standard of living.
Especially at this time, when entertaining potential allies, they even took out their best supplies in order to demonstrate their strength.
Beef and mutton are not rare on the grassland.
It is impossible for herdsmen to eat beef and mutton often, just like the people in Middle-earth, who rarely get to eat the white rice they grow.
But for the nobles, these things have long been boring.
The wine that is worth boasting about may be the favorite of the grassland tribes, but unfortunately Chen Ran and his people are from the Middle-earth, where there is no shortage of wine.
Even many of Yelu Yanxi's fine wines were brought from China.
What really made him feel proud was the thick spices that almost covered the beef and mutton.
"These are tributes from the Western Regions." The Liao Emperor boasted to Chen Ran, "They are worth as much as gold. You should use them to entertain your distinguished guests today."
On the one hand, this statement is to show off wealth, and on the other hand, it means, "Look, I still have the Western Regions as vassals, so I still have some strength."
Chen Ran smiled, said something polite, and then started eating.
Spices are good things, but when there are so many of them, the taste is really hard to describe.
Fortunately, everyone was not there to eat, but mainly to talk about things.
The two sides discussed and made a plan at the dinner table and joined hands to fight against the Jin together.
Yelu Yanxi even took the initiative to propose to become sworn brothers with Chen Ran.
Chen Ran did not refuse, and in the presence of many Liao and Song people, they became half-brothers!
Then, at Chen Ran's suggestion, Yelu Yanxi wrote an imperial edict, stating that he and the new king of Song had become brothers, and from then on they would be as close as a family to fight against the Jurchens together!
The imperial edict was copied into many copies and sent by express horses to all the areas still under the control of the Liao Kingdom, as well as to all the tribes on the grassland that could be influenced.
For Chen Ran, his main goal has been achieved. He has obtained the righteous status of the Liao Kingdom and can legitimately annex and swallow up the Khitan people in the name of resisting the Jin Dynasty.
The Khitans had a great influence on the grassland, and Chen Ran needed cannon fodder cavalry and a large number of horses on the grassland.
The next step was to invite Yelu Yanxi to visit Bianliang City.
It is not a good idea to take action directly in the city. If someone escapes, it will affect Chen Ran's plan.
His plan was to ask Yelu Yanxi to go hunting in two days.
After eating and drinking, Chen Ran planned to say goodbye and leave the city to return to the camp.
But Yelu Yanxi persuaded him to stop, saying that it was getting late and he should just rest in his own palace.
His original words were, "You and I are brothers. My palace is your palace. Living here is like living in your own home."
Chen Ran couldn't refuse, so he agreed.
As a result, when he went to take a bath at night, there was a beautiful woman waiting to serve him.
Chen Ran didn't care about it at all. He took a bath and changed his clothes with the help of the beauty, then got into bed with the help of the beauty and was served well.
He just thought it was a treat from Yelu Yanxi.
After the matter was completed, he casually asked, "Does it have a name?"
The little beauty sobbed softly and replied, "My name is Yelu Yuliyan."
