Brother Song Taizu

Chapter 16
"God helps me! This is really God helping me!"

In Taiyuan City, Liu Jun couldn't help but be overjoyed when he took the letter of alliance written by Li Jun to him.

Needless to say, there was a deep blood feud between the Northern Han Dynasty and the Later Zhou Dynasty. Even if national hatred was not taken into account, family hatred was still an unsettled account.

"This is a God-given opportunity. Taihang Mountain is easy to defend but difficult to attack. As long as we can join forces with Li Jun to seize the danger of Taihang Mountain, even if Zhao Kuangyin comes with [-] troops to attack, he will not be able to attack. We only need to hold on for several months and the Great Zhou Dynasty will be defeated." All the feudal vassals and towns within will definitely rise up to respond, and Daliao will definitely send reinforcements to me. In this way, the matter will be settled, and the Han Dynasty can be restored!"

Wei Rong, the prime minister of the Northern Han Dynasty, quickly flattered him and said: "Congratulations to your majesty, congratulations to your majesty. The most urgent task right now is still the Taihang Mountains. Zhao Kuangyin is not a man who does not know how to fight. He will definitely compete with Li Yun for the mountain cover. In this battle, whoever takes the Taihang Mountain cover first will win." Can conquer the world."

"Yes, yes, soldiers need speed. I should send troops as soon as possible. By the way, the Liao Kingdom must also send reinforcements to them."

But suddenly someone in the hall muttered: "We are using the power of Khitan to conquer the world again. Aren't we going to follow in the footsteps of the later Jin Dynasty?"

"Ok?"

Liu Jun turned around unhappily and saw that the person speaking was Liu Jiye. He couldn't help but sneered and said, "Why, do you think it's inappropriate?"

Liu Jiye gritted his teeth when he saw this. Although he knew that there were some words he shouldn't say, he still stood up and clasped his hands and said: "Father, the current civil war in the Central Plains is the time when my Liu family returns to the world. The people, soldiers and civilians of the world must pursue us." The legacy of Taizu, the adoptive father only needs to raise his arms and call out, why worry about the military governors in the world not being able to respond?"

"However, Taizu was able to conquer the world only by expelling the Khitans. Now, in this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, if the Khitans come to intervene again, how can the governors of all towns in the world still be willing to recognize you as their master? This is a rare opportunity. We have family affairs in the Central Plains, so why bother with foreign allies?”

Liu Jun was furious and cursed: "This is a pedantic view. In today's troubled times, only those with strong soldiers and horses can achieve great achievements. Where does loyalty come from? If those Jiedu envoys really have loyalty in their hearts, how can they have the traitor Guo Wei?" , usurp our country?"

"But……"

"Needless to say, we, the Liu family, are from Shatuo. Why should we stick to Han etiquette? The word traitor cannot be used to scold us."

Liu Jiye opened his mouth when he heard this, but closed it helplessly. He could only say: "In that case, please ask your adoptive father to allow your child to be a pioneer."

"you?"

Liu Jun thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "I plan to send you as an envoy to go to Beijing to contact the Liao Kingdom."

"Father?"

"You are my adopted son, and you have always been clever. I heard that King Xiao has always liked you. Is there anyone more suitable to be an envoy to the Liao Kingdom than you?"

"I……"

"What? My son, don't you want to share your father's worries?"

As he spoke, Liu Jun's gloomy eyes gradually revealed a dangerous look.

"My child... I'm willing to go."

Liu Jun couldn't help laughing when he saw this.

Liu Jiye's real surname was Yang, and he was the son of a general of the Yang family in Linzhou. In the Later Han Dynasty, this child was actually sent to Liu Chong as a hostage. Liu Chong liked the child, so he kept him by his side and recognized him as his grandson.

Who could have imagined that soon after Guo Wei's yellow robe was added, the Later Han Dynasty was gone, and Liu Chong had to establish the Northern Han Dynasty. However, the Yang family of Linzhou was sandwiched between the Zhou and Han Dynasties, jumping left and right, which was really disgusting. Later, his father Liu Chong died, and this godson , naturally became his godson inexplicably, but in fact, how could there be any father-son relationship between these two people?It is more like a method of enslaving the Linzhou Yang family.It's just that this person was often dissatisfied with the Khitans coming to rob Taiyuan, so much so that he complained, and even personally led troops to fight against the Khitans who came to rob him. However, he did so in the name of his adopted son. This is simply unreasonable. .

My Khitan father also provided us with horses, money and food, and helped us fight as reinforcements. He occasionally came over to rob a few people and play with a few girls. What's wrong?
The Khitan Emperor is my adoptive father, and this is your god-grandfather. How can a grandson have any reason to fight against his grandfather?

It's really bad.

So this time he had an idea and simply sent this kid to the Liao Kingdom as an envoy, and nominally made him the leader. In this way, he would be completely confirmed as a traitor, and his reputation as a traitor that he should not have been eliminated. Some thoughts.

When you are a dog, you have to have the consciousness of being a dog. Otherwise, how disgusting will you feel when you eat shit?
In this way, after waiting for another two days, Liu Jun, who was already impatient when he heard that Li Jun had taken Zezhou, immediately took Prime Minister Wei Rong, gathered all the soldiers and horses in the city, sent [-] troops, and personally led the troops to help.

Because I left in such a hurry, I didn’t even bring any supplies.

After all, the two families are very close. Li Jun's defense zone was originally to protect them from the Northern Han Dynasty. Wouldn't it be okay to eat Li Jun's somewhere?We are here to help after all, shouldn’t we give you something to eat?
When they were still more than thirty miles away from Zezhou City, they saw that Li Jun had led his troops to pick them up and invited them into the city.

Unexpectedly, Liu Jun suddenly fell ill when he saw this. Unless he was the emperor, the world should belong to his family, and Li Jun was just a military governor, so he should be treated as a monarch and a minister.

Li Jun couldn't help but feel bad. He glanced at the three or four thousand soldiers and horses behind Liu Jun and thought to himself, you are such a loser, how dare you show off to me?

Now you Northern Han people can still show off their power in Taiyuan City only because of the support of Khitan father. Don't you have no B-number in your heart?Your emperor's military strength is not as good as my military governor.

So Li Jun's face changed again and again when he saw this. He was riding on a horse, but his hand unconsciously touched his sword. He was thinking in his heart, why don't he just draw the knife and stab him to death?

"Ahem, uncle, the Zhao thieves are powerful right now, and the army is close at hand. I hope you can put the overall situation first."

Li Jun turned around and looked at Zhao Kuangmei with an unhappy expression.

Zhao Kuangmei's face remained as usual, and she took the initiative to dismount her horse without any distaste, knelt down and bowed to Liu Jun, and kowtowed firmly to Liu Jun: "Long live my Majesty the Han Emperor, long live, long live."

When Li Jun saw this, he reluctantly got off his horse and knelt before him, calling himself the Emperor.

'If you marry your mother, you should go to his grave in advance. '

When Liu Jun saw this, he laughed even more and didn't care at all about Li Jun's little move just now. After all, he was taking advantage of others' danger by doing this. The so-called overall situation was naturally that the two alliances jointly resisted Zhao Ni. The overall situation?

Overjoyed, he was also an open-minded person, and directly decreed that Li Jun be made King of Xiping, and Li Jun accepted it happily.

"Li Aiqing, how is the battle ahead? How do you plan to fight this battle?"

"Naturally, we need to take the Taihang Mountains first, and then go down from a high position and take advantage of the natural dangers to defend each other."

"Well, my beloved and I really have the same views as heroes."

Li Jun said with a smile: "The Han army has many cavalry, and our army has many infantry. How about asking your Majesty to order people to go up the mountain to defend it first? I will prepare more food and grass and build defense facilities. As for the alliance, your Majesty will stay in Ze." It’s just that the state and I have fulfilled the etiquette. After all, Shi Shouxin and Han Lingkun from the south may arrive in ten days. To the east, Wang Quanbin from Xiangzhou has now led his troops to the west, intending to join forces with Murong Yanzhao to attack us from both sides. It’s not too late, as things may change later.”

"Ai Qing's words are reasonable. These are pragmatic words. Since Ai Qing has been prepared, well, Lu Duozuo and Wei Rong, you two will lead our cavalry first, under the guidance of King Xiping's soldiers. , let’s go up the mountain first, I want to set up an altar in Zezhou and make a blood alliance with King Xiping.”
