A knife in love

Chapter 2014
Wang Xiaoyu has never read history books, so naturally he doesn't know about this old incident, but he was very surprised when he heard Feng Wei say that Li Cunxu liked to sing operas.At first she wanted to ask, but after thinking about it, Feng Wei looked down on her, if she asked him, she would only be humiliating herself, so she opened her mouth, and finally swallowed the words that came to her lips.

I only heard Feng Wei say: "Li Cunxu is fighting everywhere in the Central Plains, but the Liao Kingdom in the north is not peaceful. After Yelu Deguang became the emperor of the Liao Kingdom, he originally wanted to immediately lead his troops to conquer Yelubei who fled back to Dongdan Kingdom. But When Li Cunxu sent troops to the Northern Expedition, Yelu Deguang had no choice but to put Yelubei aside and lead his troops to resist Li Cunxu himself. Although he also fought with Yelu Abaoji, he was far behind Li Cunxu. As soon as the two armies clashed , the Liao army was defeated. Yelu Deguang knew that he was not Li Cunxu's opponent, so he had to rely on the fortified city and could not defend it. At the same time, he sent envoys to the Central Plains, asking Zhu Wen to send troops to harass Li Cunxu to relieve the Liao army. Although Zhu Wen was cunning However, he also knew that if the Liao Kingdom was destroyed by Li Cunxu, Cunxu would definitely turn around and attack the Central Plains. At that time, it would be more powerful to resist Li Cunxu with the strength of the Liang Kingdom alone. It is still difficult to reach the sky. Therefore, after Zhu Wen received Yelu Deguang's letter, he immediately mobilized troops to attack Li Cunxu's territory.

"Li Cunxu beat Yelu Deguang to retreat, and he had the upper hand. However, Zhu Wen's surprise attack, Li Cunxu had no choice but to retreat south. Since then, the three families have continued to attack. Li Cunxu attacked more and defended less, forcing Khitan and Liang. He was out of breath. Yelu Deguang tried his best to deal with Li Cunxu. Although he was quite afraid of Yelubei who was trapped in Dongdan Kingdom, he was unable to lead his troops to conquer for a while, so Yelubei was given a chance to breathe. Yelubei recruited in Dongdan Kingdom Soldiers and horses, practice hard, and always think about revenge. It's just that Dongdan Kingdom is in a bitterly cold place outside the pass, sparsely populated, and short of money. Although Yelubei is a man of great talent, he is also a clever woman. He had raised more than ten thousand soldiers and horses, so he could only barely protect himself. If he wanted to use this force to fight back to the Liao capital and regain the throne, it would be more difficult than ascending to the sky. However, Li Cunxu sent troops to attack Yelu Deguang from time to time, which helped Yelubei Otherwise, Yelu Deguang will attack with all his strength. Although Yelubei is good at using troops, there is a huge gap between the two sides, but they must be defeated.

"After Li Keyong died of illness, Li Cunxu became the king of Jin. Li Siyuan was terrified, for fear that Li Cunxu would harm him. It's just that after Li Cunxu became the king of Jin, he used troops everywhere. It was time to employ people. Li Siyuan was originally the only one under Li Keyong's account. The famous general who was inferior to Li Cunxu, even if Li Cunxu was jealous of him, he could not kill him hastily. Li Cunxu listened to the persuasion of his advisers, promoted Li Siyuan's official position, and allocated some more soldiers to him, asking Li Siyuan to help him .

"Li Siyuan led his troops to conquer the east and west, and he did a lot for Li Cunxu. His official position was getting higher and higher, and Li Cunxu rewarded him with countless gold, silver and jewels. But Li Siyuan knew that Li Cunxu was extremely afraid of him, but he had to deal with Khitan and Liang. He had to rely on him to lead troops to fight, so he didn't start. Therefore, Li Siyuan was cautious, like walking on thin ice, for fear that Li Cunxu would catch something, and disaster would happen. Later, a close friend gave him an idea, asking him to ask Li Cunxu for orders , went to the north to guard the border to prevent the Khitan from going south to attack. In this way, he could show his loyalty to Li Cunxu, so that he no longer suspected that Li Siyuan wanted to rebel, and he could also lead his troops outside. Li Siyuan heard the plan of his cronies, and asked him to go out to guard the border. Li Cunxu didn't know what the plan was, and thought that Li Siyuan really wanted to work for him, so he immediately agreed. Li Siyuan was relieved when he left the border.

"At that time, Yelu Abaoji was dead, and Yelu Deguang became the emperor. Li Siyuan had fought against Yelu Deguang before, but he didn't take this person seriously. The only thing he was afraid of was Yelubei who had fought against him. Fortunately, Yelubei was well received Tired of internal strife among the Khitan people, he fled to Dongdan country, and had no choice but to protect himself. Li Siyuan repeatedly said it was a fluke, and often said to his generals, if Yelubei became emperor, I am afraid that we will not have a safe day. It is just that this person does not die. There will be future troubles in the end, how can you think of a way to kill Yelvbei once and for all. His confidant general persuaded him that Han Xin was captured by Liu Bang in Yunmengze in the past, and his title of king of Chu was cut off and he was reduced to The Marquis of Huaiyin was sent to live in Chang'an. Han Xin said angrily, "The cunning rabbit dies, the lackey cooks, the birds are exhausted, the good bow is hidden, the enemy's country is broken, and the ministers perish. Things. If it wasn't for the undecided world, the general would have been killed by the lord long ago. Whether it is Yelu Deguang or Yelubei, the general can save his life only if they live well and the lord dare not relax for a day.

"After listening to the persuasion of his confidant, Li Siyuan suddenly understood. The confidant advised him not to just think about how to destroy the Khitan, but to obey the Khitan, turn a blind eye to the Khitan, and say a bad word. It is to support the bandits. Otherwise, once the Khitan is destroyed by Li Cunxu, Li Siyuan will die. From then on, Li Siyuan sits at the border gate, only defending but not attacking, and turns a blind eye to some merchants trading food and horses with the Khitan people. Eye. At that time, Yelubei was recruiting soldiers to defend himself in Dongdan Kingdom. To build weapons and buy war horses, he often sent people to sneak into Li Siyuan's territory to buy iron, horses, etc. Li Siyuan not only ignored it, but also provided many conveniences for these people. "

Hearing what Feng Wei said, Li Qiufeng thought to himself, Master once said that Li Siyuan was a generous man, and he could be regarded as a good emperor.He was persecuted by Li Cunxu and had to support himself, which seems understandable.However, the border generals of the Ming Dynasty colluded with the Tartars and Japanese pirates to resell grain, horses, and armaments.Over the years, Jin Yiwei has inquired about many frontier generals colluding with the Tartars and Japanese pirates, but the imperial court has continued to fight among parties, and these frontier generals are backed by big bosses, moving one person and implicating the overall situation. The rain is small, and even if the murderer is beheaded in the end, only a few small officials can be released to take the blame.The government is so corrupt, how it will change in the future is unknown.

While Li Qiufeng was thinking about it, he only heard Feng Wei continue to say: "Yelu was besieged to defend the Eastern Dan Kingdom, and he got a lot of food, grass and armaments from Li Siyuan's territory, which is quite unexpected. Although the two have never met, they have never written However, when their cronies and confidants were doing things, there was a lot of overlap, and there was an implicit alliance. However, Yelubei and Li Siyuan each had scruples, so they let their cronies secretly communicate, and they just pretended not to know. .

"When Li Cunxu became emperor, he was still vigorous and worked hard to rule the country. He wanted to unify the world and reproduce the prosperity of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, he still personally led troops to fight everywhere, and finally destroyed Liang Guo, and brought all the Zhu clan back to the capital. Offering captives to the Ancestral Temple was the fulfillment of Li Keyong's third wish. After that, Li Cunxu destroyed the Kingdom of Shu, which occupied Sanchuan and Chengdu, and wiped out the Wang family of the Lord of Shu. Most likely in this battle, Zhuge Wuhou stayed Another map of the formation fell into the hands of Li Cunxu."
