In the Xijin Mansion in Nanjing, in the palace, the Empress Dowager Xiao Puxian's face turned gloomy. She stared straight at the Xinxi King Xiao Gan without saying a word, her eyes full of anger.

Xiao Gan was not a Khitan, but a nobleman of the Liao Kingdom. After the old Xi King was killed by the Jin people, he succeeded King Xi. This man was very talented, but he was not in the way of dealing with Yelu Dashi. The two fought to the death to take the initiative of the army, but they were surprisingly consistent in the issue of destroying the Prime Minister Li Chuwen.

After Li Chuwen, the prime minister of Liao, assisted Yelu Chun in ascending the throne, he attempted to control the government. Unexpectedly, Yelu Chun, an old guy, attempted to surrender under the strong military pressure of the Jin army. When he was rejected by the Jin Kingdom, he died at the age of 60. Before his death, he was decreed to make Yelu, the fifth son of Emperor Tianzuo Yelu Yanxi, named Yelu, the fifth son of Emperor Tianzuo Yelu Yanxi, be the emperor.

Yelu Ding was not in Yanshan Prefecture, so he could only stand in a distance. Xiao Puxian's daughter was respected and was in power with the support of Xiao Gan, and took the opportunity to eliminate Li Chuwen.

Xiao Gan knew that the Empress Dowager Xiao Puxian was dissatisfied with him and felt that he had not driven Yelu Dashi according to her request. Now that the Jin and Song army are approaching Yanjing, it can be said that there are many crises and there is danger of destroying the country at any time. The empress dowager who is less than 30 years old is a little anxious and is in chaos. She doesn't know what to do.

Xiao Gan saluted forward and said, "The Empress Dowager doesn't have to be too anxious. There is nothing scary about soldiers coming to block the water and soil. Now our Great Liao warriors are still fighting hard with the Jin soldiers. The Jin army will not come to Nanjing Xijin Prefecture for a short time. As long as we can repel the Song Dynasty's army."

"You are so simple. The Song State sent 200,000 elite troops, and in fact, the Xiang army was almost nearly 250,000. Now our Liao Dynasty has up to 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers, and they are all fighting hard in various places. There are only 10,000 Guo Yaoshi's resentful army and did not fight against the Jin army, but this Han man is unreliable. If he guards Zhuozhou and is under the city by the Song army, then how can we defend the gates of Xijin Prefecture in Nanjing?"

Although Xiao Puxian's daughter was extremely wise, she was a woman of 27 or 28 years old. She lived in the deep palace for a long time and had a trick of intrigue. She seemed wise when she destroyed Li Chuwen. However, when the army was at the city, she was immediately confused. What she cared about was not whether the Liao Kingdom would perish, but whether she could save her life.

Xiao Gan's pressure was actually greater than that of Xiao Puxian's daughter. When Emperor Tianzuo of Liao Yelu Yanxi fled to Jiashan, took away the only 100,000 elite soldiers left by the Liao Kingdom, leaving behind a mess. In addition, Yelu Chun died soon, he is really internal and external troubles. Now there are only five or six cities around Yanjing, and it is only a matter of time to be conquered. As for Yanjing, there is still 10,000 elite soldiers, which is the last family. Whether it is against the Jin army or the 200,000 Song Dynasty, there is no chance of winning.

Facing Xiao Puxian's questioning, Xiao Gan said with a wry smile: "Actually, we still have a turning point before we have reached the dead end. We can send Yelu Jungu to serve as a military supervisor and monitor Guo Yaoshi. If this guy shows signs of betrayal, he will be executed directly. As for dealing with the two armies of the Song Dynasty, I can lead the army to fight against one route, let Yelu Dashi fight against one route, and annihilate it halfway."

"Why is Yelu Dashi? He opposed my advocacy? Don't you know?" Xiao Puxian's impression of Yelu Dashi was not good at all. She felt that the reason why this guy opposed her advocacy was not because of loyalty to the Liao emperor, but because of coveting her beauty, so she was extremely repulsive in her heart.

Xiao Gan shook his head, and he said helplessly: "I have fought with Yelu Dashi for many years, and I hate him too. But the enemy is in front of me, the time when the Liao Dynasty is in critical survival. He will not be stupid enough to act irresistible and will definitely lead a team to fight. You must know that he is the Khitan royal family after all, and his appeal is still very strong. In addition, he is extremely strategic, and he will definitely defeat the Song army."

"But even if you two join forces, where will you get the army? You must know that the army we can mobilize is only 10,000 Tielin Army left. This is our capital to save our lives and we can't move." At this moment, Xiao Puxian's most thought was that once the city was broken, the Tielin Army would protect him and escape.

Xiao Gan said: "There are at least 30,000 Khitan warriors in the city, but they have not been trained. The Queen Mother gave me a month to train an iron army. At that time, Yelu Dashi will lead the Iron Army, and I will lead the new army, and the troops will be divided into two groups to fight against the Song army."

Xiao Puxian shook his head gently and said helplessly: "Can we last for a month for a month? The situation is really difficult now."

"If we negotiated with the Emperor of Song Dynasty, we agreed to go to the emperor, give up the emperor, cancel the annual monies, and return the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, I think the Emperor of Song Dynasty would agree." Xiao Gan often went to Bianliang before and colluded with King Zhao Ya of Yan. He understood the nature of Song Huizong Zhao Ji. He had no ability to urinate, was very timid, cowardly and incompetent, ungrateful, greedy for money and lust. Seeing that Xiao Puxian's daughter was a little shaken, he continued: "The Song-Jin Alliance is just a piece of waste paper. After the two families joined forces to take over the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, the Song Dynasty would still be able to hand over the annual monies that were originally given to us by the Great Liao Dynasty to the Jin Kingdom. If we take the initiative to contribute, I believe that the foolish Song Huizong would agree, and of course he would also bribe the important officials in the court. In this way, even if there is any change, it would be okay to delay for one month. I spent this month training the Khitan warriors and could definitely defeat the Song army."

At this point, there is no better way. Xiao Puxian said softly: "That's all. I'll prepare for the peace talks. You are responsible for training the new army and persuading Yelu Dashi to join the war."

Fighting for the Great Liao and for the royal family, Yelu Dashi had no choice but to temporarily abandon the conflict with Xiao Gan, and he did not object that Xiao Puxian’s daughter would take power in power.

The Iron Forest Army is like the Western Xia Iron Harrier and the Jin Kingdom Iron Futu. It is a heavy cavalry armed to the teeth. The cavalry is wearing heavy armor and a war horse company. The war horses are also wearing heavy armor, but their knees are not armored, and other places are wrapped tightly. Even if the soldiers die in battle, their bodies will not fall to the ground. They will still follow the war horses and continue to rush forward. The royal guards belonging to the Liao Kingdom are responsible for protecting the safety of the royal family and rarely go to war.

Emperor Tianzuo of Liao, Yelu Yanxi, fled in a hurry and did not have time to bring Tielin's army. If he really brought it, then the bloody battle between Tiefutu and Tielin's army would be really cruel.

The Tielin Army could only hand over the Khitan royal nobles to take charge of the troops, but the others could not be transferred. Although Xiao Gan was noble, he was the Xi clan after all, so he had no way to mobilize the Tielin Army, so he could only ask Yelu Dashi to fight.

The Iron Lin Army is not just a heavy armored cavalry, but a reflection of a country's comprehensive national strength and comprehensive military strength. It is as powerful as the Liao Kingdom wearing one million armors, and its territory lasts for two thousand miles, and only 10,000 Iron Lin Army. In comparison, the Xixia devoted all its national strength to only three thousand Iron Harriers, which were not field troops at all but protected the royal family.

The best soldiers, the best treatment. Basically, one man and three horses, one carries a cavalry, one carries a armor, and one auxiliary soldiers. The 10,000 Tielin Army is actually 20,000 cavalry and 30,000 excellent war horses.

It is somewhat similar to the fact that the Japanese army in the Song Dynasty were responsible for royal security, but the Tielin Army and Tie Yaozi were strong in combat and were invincible on the battlefield. The Japanese army was just a fancy way, and their combat effectiveness was far from keeping up with the Tianlong Imperial Army.

Yelu Dashi trusted Tielin Army very much and believed that he could definitely defeat the 10,000 Tielin Army of the Song Dynasty without hesitation. Therefore, he agreed to go to the expedition without hesitation. He led the Tielin Army to face the Zhong Shidao in Baigou. As for the important task of blocking Xin Xingzong, he handed over to Xiao Gan. This was a temporary assembled team, and no one could understand the combat effectiveness.

A total of 25,000 members of the nobles of the Liao Kingdom, young and middle-aged Khitan, young and middle-aged Xi people, Bohai, Goryeo, and Han people from Liao were organized to receive Xiao Gan's lecture in the military camp.

Xiao Gan took out 250,000 silver from the palace, and he shouted loudly: "The Song people were betrayed and made small profits in the future. They tore up the alliance and invaded the Liao Dynasty without authorization. After conquering the city, they burned, killed, looted, and committed all kinds of evil. Men were killed and women were ruined. In order to protect our homes, to avoid being massacred, and to prevent our women from being ruined, we must kill them."

"Kill them, kill them." The crowd was in a state of enthusiasm, and the warrior instantly turned into a soldier.

"Each person can receive ten taels of silver first. After defeating the Song army, each person will receive hundreds of taels of silver and two hundred acres of land."

Xiao Gan is worthy of being an old world. After his instigation, 25,000 Zhuang Dings wished he could go to the battlefield to fight bravely.

In the arsenal, there are brand new scale armor and all kinds of weapons. It quickly armed the 25,000 warriors to their teeth. This is a group of strong and strong men. Xiao Gan personally trained it to build a strong soldier in the shortest time.

Xiao Gan's military talent was fully demonstrated. Xiao Puxian's daughter saw this and remembered it in her heart. At this time, there was no previous panic, and she was at ease to use a carrier pigeon to convey the message to Bianliang, so that Xiao Yunyi, the envoy of Liao, who was stationed in Bianliang, would meet the Emperor of the Song Dynasty and win time with peace talks.

Xiao Puxian’s daughter was not an ordinary person. She personally visited the nobles, high-ranking officials, wealthy businessmen and wealthy families in the Liao Dynasty, and asked everyone to pay money and people to resist the Song army. She organized young people to go up to the city wall, and even many strong women were pushed to the city wall.

The entire Yanjing was full of fighting spirit and there was no panic at all when the troops were approaching the city. Almost everyone believed that the Liao Dynasty would win in this battle. It swept away the gloom of being defeated by the Jin army in recent years.

There is at least 300,000 people in Yanjing. In addition to the 25,000 warriors recruited by Xiao Gan, there are 20,000 people coming to the city and 30,000 people help transport supplies. The city is in a mess, but it is full of fighting spirit.

Despite making enough preparations, Xiao Puxian made the worst plan. She ordered people to secretly move out all the gold, silver and jewelry in the treasury and put it in the palace city. Once the city was broken, they would take these treasures north as soon as possible. This matter was hidden from Xiao Gan and Yelu Dashi, but a group of people still knew the secret.
