Chapter 269 Khatun City? This is Anbei Protectorate!

Forcibly inviting Yelu Yanxi to be a "guest" was just a trivial matter.

What Chen Ran really values ​​is holding on to the righteous reputation of the Liao Kingdom, which gives him a lot of room for maneuver.

"Mogeshi pays respect to His Majesty~~~"

Outside Fengzhou City, Mogeshi, the chief of the Shiwei tribe from Yinshan, respectfully saluted Yelu Yanxi.

Yelu Yanxi, who was sitting in the middle, forced a smile and said, "No need to be polite. Please take a seat."

When Mogeshi sat down, he asked, "What are you doing here?"

Mogeshi was puzzled and asked back, "Didn't His Majesty order us to come here?"

"I don't have any."

"Ahem~~~" Chen Ran, who was standing beside him, coughed twice, which immediately made Yelu Yanxi realize, "I did say that. I am very happy that you can come here."

What followed was the traditional polite words, and after a brief chat, he gave some rewards and let Mogeshi go back to settle his people.

After the people left, Chen Ran looked over with a smile and said, "Your Majesty, you did a good job. There will be many such things in the future. Your Majesty should get used to them."

Yelu Yanxi dared to fight against the Jin people. He would run away after being defeated and fight again after running away.

Even after being captured and brought to Wuguo City, he was still trying to escape, and was ultimately killed on the way.

He has a firm mind and knows how to endure humiliation and seek opportunities.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty." Yelu Yanxi forced a smile and nodded in response, "As long as we can defeat the Jin people, I will do my best to help."

He finally didn't dare to call Chen Ran "second brother" anymore.

"So good."

Chen Ran smiled even more broadly, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will take good care of Yu Liyan."

Yelu Yanxi didn't care much about his sons, as they were all captured by the Jin people, so he would care even less about his daughter.

I responded casually, "That's great, that's great~~~"

He still didn't understand the meaning of Chen Ran's words.

After Yelu Yanxi was sent away, Chen Ran told Hu Cheng to "ask his medical officer to prepare the medicine."

Hu Cheng was puzzled. "Poison? No need, just chop him up directly."

"Stupid!" Chen Ran glared at him. "Only the living ones are useful."

"Let the doctor prepare him a contraceptive soup."

"Oh." Hu Cheng suddenly realized, and then asked, "Can men drink it too?"

"You ask the doctor about this, how should I know?"

With Yelu Yuliyan, there was Yelu Yanxi's grandson.

A grandson is also a grandson and can inherit the Liao Dynasty's legacy.

As a result, Yelu Yanxi naturally could not allow another son to be born.

The Shiwei tribe was just the beginning. A large number of messengers were sent out under the banner of Yelu Yanxi, looking for various tribes to convey his will.

Chen Ran led his army across the Yin Mountains and headed north into the prairie.

Three days after leaving Yinshan Mountain to the north, the vanguard troops arrived at Heishui (Aibugai River) and encountered the Tatar Wanggu tribe.

The leader of the tribe immediately sent hundreds of horses, as well as even larger numbers of camels, sheep and other livestock, and also selected hundreds of cavalry to join the team.

For the Wanggu tribe, which had only more than 4,000 tents in total, this was already a very strong support.

During the subsequent march, tribes along the way would join in every day.

Each tribe offered cattle, sheep, horses and camels, and selected brave warriors from their tribe to join the Liao emperor's army.

The number of cavalry may be as few as a hundred or as many as a thousand.

By the time they reached Khatun City, they had captured more than 100,000 livestock and tens of thousands of soldiers.

"Now you know why we have to take down the Liao Emperor."

Looking at the Liao army riding their horses to greet the emperor, Chen Ran said to the generals around him, "These are all the heritage of the Liao Kingdom, and they are very rich."

The so-called Khatun City (Baintumen) is actually the Hengsai Army during the Tang Dynasty.

It was also the seat of the Anbei Protectorate of the Tang Dynasty.

Now, it is the Yunnei Prefecture of the Liao Kingdom.

That is to say, Chen Ran, who had traveled thousands of miles out of Xiaoguan, was still in the territory of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

Everyone says that the Song Dynasty was weak. Compared with the powerful Han Dynasty and the prosperous Tang Dynasty, it was really weak.

Looking at the Liao army in front of him, Yelu Yanxi was trembling with excitement, and he wanted to shout immediately, "Soldiers, please save me quickly~~~"

But at this time, Wu Song beside him coughed.

In an instant, Yelu Yanxi became obedient.

He had seen with his own eyes how the strong man next to him knocked down the mad horse with one punch, smashing its head.

If this is a punch on my head.
"I intend to send troops to attack the Jin people and recover the lost territory." Yelu Yanxi said according to the instructions, "You should quickly reorganize your troops and horses, collect supplies and follow me to fight."

"Also, order all the surrounding departments to come and serve!"

The Liao people attached great importance to the geographical location of Khatun City and set up the Northwest Road Recruiting Office here.

There are 20,000 troops stationed here all year round, and no matter what happens in the country, the troops here are not allowed to be mobilized.

It is obvious that this was regarded as a base for the Liao Dynasty's revival and a real backup for its re-emergence.

In history, Yelu Dashi felt that Yelu Yanxi would not be able to accomplish anything great, so he simply ran away and gathered tribes along the way, and finally came to this Khatun City.

Relying on this backup base that the Liao Kingdom had arranged two hundred years ago, they gathered tens of thousands of soldiers and horses and a large amount of food, fodder and livestock, marched westward and eventually founded the Western Liao Dynasty.

Now, all these have become Chen Ran's spoils of war. They cannot be called spoils of war, but rather gifts from Yelu Yanxi.

After two hundred years, the number of soldiers and horses stationed here has been less than 20,000, only about 10,000 people. However, the supplies are very sufficient, enough food and grass for tens of thousands of people to eat for a year, and there are mountains of weapons and armor, as well as various military supplies.

This is not finished.

In the following days, many surrounding tribes, such as the Shiwei, Dici, Hongjila, Chachila, Yexi, Bigude and many other tribes, large and small, received orders from the Liao emperor and migrated here.

The huge team almost covered the entire grassland.

"It's been a long time since I came out this time. It's time to go back."

It was impossible for Chen Ran to stay on the grassland for a long time. After plundering a wave of Khitan people's heritage, it was time to return south.

After all, if we leave for too long, the Jin people may take the initiative to move south.

However, before departure, a meeting must be held.

The leaders and nobles of various tribes, as well as the powerful people among the Khitans, gathered under the high platform and listened to Yelu Yanxi's shouts.

It's nothing more than going to fight the Jin people, and with our Song brothers as reinforcements, we will surely win a great victory.

These are appetizers. The real main course is Yelu Yuliyan, who was pushed to the stage by Chen Ran, looking a little overwhelmed.

Looking at his daughter beside him, Yelu Yanxi's expression was complicated.

He wanted to ask everyone to draw their swords, but
"Cough cough~~~"

Hearing Wu Song's cough, Yelu Yanxi, who was startled, did not dare to neglect it. He quickly stretched out his hand to signal Yelu Yuliyan and announced loudly, "All my sons were killed and captured by the Golden Dog. Only the Princess of Shu Kingdom wholeheartedly supports me in recovering the lost territory, and is even willing to marry the new king of the Song people in exchange for their help!"

"In order to thank her for her contribution, I...I appoint Princess Yelu Yuliyan of Shu as the Crown Princess!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the audience was suddenly in an uproar.

Is the Liao Dynasty going to have a female emperor? !

Yelu Yanxi hadn't finished his words yet, "The son of the Princess of Shu will be the future Emperor of Liao!"

Chen Ran looked at Yelu Dashi who was in the crowd below the stage.

There was no other way, so Yelu Dashi had to bite the bullet and shout "Long live His Majesty, long live the Crown Princess~~"

Immediately, the agents who had been arranged in advance shouted in unison, "Long live His Majesty! Long live the Crown Princess!"

With someone taking the lead, a group of nobles who had no culture at all also started to shout, and the atmosphere at the scene was very lively.

"Your Majesty." Hu Cheng came closer with an anxious look on his face and whispered, "You are not really going to marry a Hu woman, are you?"

Marrying and taking a wife are two completely different identities and statuses.

It is the difference in status between the wife and the concubine.

If Yelu Yuliyan is really taken as the legal wife, then her son will not only be the emperor of Liao, but also have a strong claim to the Middle-earth!
"How can it be."

Chen Ran glanced at him and said, "Do you think I'm stupid? They are just pawns."

Hu Cheng immediately breathed a sigh of relief, as if his sister still had a chance.

Although my sister can at least get the position of concubine, compared with the position of the queen, it is nothing~~~
Among the royal family, there have always been only relatives by marriage and descendants of the emperor, but I have never heard of relatives by marriage and concubines of the emperor.

Naturally, he could not hide his little thoughts from Chen Ran.

But he is not in a hurry about this matter and will talk about it later.

They plundered a large number of forces on the grassland, including hundreds of thousands of tribal warriors, even larger numbers of cattle, sheep and livestock, and countless large carts of various types.

The huge team set out from Khotun City and marched all the way south across the Yin Mountains.

There are still many powerful forces on the grassland. To the north and east, there are many Mongolian tribes, Xi tribes, etc.

Not to mention going west to the Western Regions, where there are even more.

But the forces over there have little to do with the Liao Kingdom, and Chen Ran is unwilling to continue procrastinating.

This time he has been on a military expedition for too long, and if he stays any longer it will be winter and it will snow heavily.

The winter and heavy snow on the grassland are very terrifying.

When I returned to Fengzhou, a lot of news came flooding in.

The messenger of Zhang Jun, the Xingling Xuanfu Envoy, had been waiting for a long time. The letter indicated that the country was unstable and many places were in turmoil. Without the king to preside over the situation, chaos was inevitable.

This is normal. After all, Chen Ran's power is based on the military, and he has deeply offended the literati and scholar-official group.

When he is away for a long time with the main army, it would be a problem if the turbans did not cause trouble.

Chen Ran quickly wrote a letter and sent a messenger to deliver it to Hu Yanzhuo, Yang Zhi and others who were still in various places in Guanzhong, asking them to return to the Central Plains with their troops to stabilize the situation.

There is also news that the Jin people have indeed come to take revenge.

When Wanyan Gao, the commander-in-chief of the Jin army, learned that Wanyan Loushi was defeated and killed in battle, he was furious and sent the main force of the Western Route Army to seek revenge.

They swept the Houtao area, but unfortunately Chen Ran had already plundered it, so they didn't gain much.

Afterwards, he ran along the Yellow River to the Qiantao area, where he ran into Li Qianshun, the ruler of Western Xia who had just gathered his troops and was restoring his strength.

Wanyan Gao did not even give Li Qianshun a chance to surrender. The furious Jin people defeated Li Qianshun in one fell swoop, forcing Li Qianshun to flee madly to the Western Regions.

At that time, Chen Ran was still in Khatun City.

The Jin people could not find any trace of Chen Ran and Yelu Yanxi, so they indiscriminately slaughtered some tribes in Qiantao and Houtao, and then hastily withdrew their troops and returned to Liaoxijing (Datong Prefecture).

There is no way, the army consumes a lot of food and fodder while outside.

Before this, Chen Ran had cleaned up the place thoroughly, leaving no food, livestock, or even people behind.

The Jin people were unable to support themselves by fighting, and could only retreat because they could not support their logistics.

However, after they returned to Datong Prefecture, they quickly began to move south to attack the Hedong area, determined to avenge Wanyan Loushi at all costs.

"interesting."

Chen Ran looked at the map and thought, "Since you are willing to go into the ravine, I will cut off your retreat!"
