On May 24th, in the Liao Kingdom, he went to Linhuang Mansion in Beijing.
Since the Jin army broke through the west gate on the fourth day of the lunar month, the most important capital city of the Liao Kingdom had fallen for twenty days.
But even after so many days, fires can still be seen in Shangjing City from time to time, and sudden fights still break out suddenly in some corner of the city.
The remnants of the Liao garrison hiding in this large city with a population of hundreds of thousands are still making their final struggle. Although their struggles are so ridiculous and futile in the eyes of the Jurchens, they will only implicate more people in the end. The tribesmen were killed because of this...
In an alley in the north direction of the city, as the last few screams ended, several Jurchen warriors covered in blood and with ferocious faces strode out. In the alley behind them, dozens of men, women, and children were lying. Among them, only three were Liao soldiers who wanted to attack and resist. The others were ordinary people who were implicated by them and were tortured and killed by these Jin soldiers.
This scene clearly fell into the eyes of Wanyan Wushu who had just passed by the alley, which made him frown again. But those golden soldiers didn't notice the look of disgust in his eyes at all. Instead, they leaned forward with smiles and showed the long swords with their mouths covered in blood in front of him as if they were offering treasures: "Fourth Prince, this This knife looks much sharper than our weapons, and I am willing to dedicate it to you!" These golden soldiers respected the fourth prince from the bottom of their hearts for this heroic warrior and various strategies.
The disgust in Wanyan Wushu's eyes dissipated instantly, he smiled, waved his hand, and patted the sword hanging on his waist: "I have obtained a good sword from the Liao people's palace. Since this sword is What you captured can be worn by you, and you can use it to kill more enemies in the future!"
"Of course. As a warrior of Dajin, I should kill all enemies for Dajin, not only the Liao people, but also other people who look down on us!" The Jin soldier smiled wildly and bowed slightly to Wanyan Wushu. He lowered his waist and strode away.
The Jurchens had not long since established their country, but there was no strict hierarchical system like the Song and Liao countries. Even if the identities of the two sides were very different, this soldier did not have to grovel too much. Wanyan Wushu never paid attention to this, but after pondering, he turned around and asked: "Hachi, what happened to the numbers I asked you to count? How many Liao soldiers have we killed in these days?" people?"
A man with a long face and a hooked nose and deep-set eyes hurriedly replied: "In the past twenty days, apart from the Liao soldiers killed by the formation, our Dajin soldiers have killed more than 80,000 Liao soldiers. , This is only the number of people killed in the upper capital. It is said that the number of Liao people who fled the city early and were killed is also similar to this."
"There are really many Liao people, and I heard that there are even more Song people in the south. If we continue to kill like this, I'm afraid we won't be able to win completely. We must have a good talk with my father." Wanyan Wushu said When he got here, he jerked the reins and galloped towards the Liao Imperial Palace not far ahead. The place was now completely occupied by the Jin people, and Wanyan Aguda was among them.
Two teams of elite golden soldiers stood guard in front of the somewhat damaged palace gate. However, after seeing Wanyan Wushu's arrival, they had no intention of blocking him and just followed him in with his men and swords until they entered. After the palace
Hall, the place where Wanyan Aguta rested.
In fact, this palace of the Liao people is quite old and simple compared to the palace of the Song people. The decorations inside are also the simplest. Most of them are the fur heads of tigers and leopards and other beasts, as well as a handful of strong bows. The swords and swords are completely different from the various treasures in the Song Dynasty Palace.
This is not to say that the Liao Kingdom was so poor. Even the emperor lived in such poverty. It was really because the customs of the two countries were different, and now Emperor Yelu Yanxi of the Liao Dynasty was more accustomed to hunting and hunting. He really didn’t have much in a year. Tian stayed in the imperial palace in Shangjing. In this way, everything here is simplified.
But even so, the magnificent palaces, houses and various decorative weapons still made the Jinmen who captured the city linger and marvel, just like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden. Almost every Jin Army soldier who had just entered the palace would express heartfelt admiration, and then happily choose the most suitable weapon for themselves after getting Aguda's approval.
Not only his son's confidants like Wu Shu, but also ordinary subordinates, and even the three brothers of the Zeng family received a very high-quality weapon. At this time, Zeng Suo carried a sword and stood guard in front of the back hall. Seeing Wu Shu arriving, he quickly stepped forward and saluted with clasped fists: "I've seen the Fourth Prince."
It is said that the three brothers of the Zeng family, by virtue of their status as Jurchen descendants and their superb martial arts, were highly used by the kings and ministers of the Jin Kingdom in just a few years. Zeng Sheng stayed by Wu Shu's side, while Zeng Suo became Aguda's personal guard commander. As for the last Zeng Tu, he was valued by Wu Qimai and became one of his generals. When he went to Beijing before, he also immediately He made a great contribution.
Zeng Sheng, who was following Wu Shu, only nodded briefly when he saw his third brother, while Wu Shu casually asked: "Where is my father? Is he in the palace?"
"The emperor has just found several boxes of property from a palace at the back. He is now checking and counting them inside. The fourth prince came at the right time and should be able to get a lot of rewards." Zeng Suo smiled and said.
Wu Shu just smiled after hearing this and didn't take it too seriously. These days, the soldiers guarding here can always find the property left by the Liao people in some nook and corner, and he has become accustomed to it. At that moment, he asked Zeng Shenghachi and other subordinates to stay outside the palace, while he strode into the palace gate to see his father Aguda.
In the hall, more than a dozen butter candles were burning brightly, illuminating the hall brightly. Aguda was sitting on the ground with a smile on his face, and together with a few close followers, they watched each one inlaid with precious jade. Things taken out of the box.
Those shorter and sharper swords had long been thrown aside by them. Now they were holding them in their hands and playing with them. What they were amazed at was a jade cup with an extremely thin body but as big as a palm, and several pieces as smooth as water. , brocade shining dazzlingly in the firelight. A few old men who were used to holding swords, guns, bows and arrows carefully touched these utensils with their rough hands, their faces filled with wonder.
"These things are truly amazing. Compared with these satins, what we are wearing is just fur." A general exclaimed, pulling on his own clothes in frustration.
"besides
I don’t know how this cup was made. Presumably if you drink it, it will taste even better. "
Just when Aguda nodded in agreement, Wu Shu strode forward and said, "Although these things look beautiful, they are very impractical. Everyone, we Jurchens have to drink to their heart's content. If we use such a cup, You have to be careful, if you hold it for fear of breaking it, then why drink?"
"Indeed, the fourth prince is more knowledgeable." A man with a sinewy face and a deep scar from his left eye to his chin laughed and nodded.
And Aguda unconsciously shook his head and laughed: "Wushu, you can always say things like these that are ignored by us. You are indeed the eagle of our Jurchen tribe. By the way, I heard that you defeated another enemy outside the city yesterday. A Liao army, here, I will reward you with this piece of satin, which is a rare good thing in the palace of the Liao people." He raised his hand and threw one of the pieces of satin towards his son.
Wanyan Wushu caught it casually, and then said with a smile: "Thank you, Father, for the gift, but in my opinion, these satins are nothing."
"What does the fourth prince mean by this?" someone asked in confusion, and even Aguda looked over with a frown.
"Father, as far as I know, these Liao people's satin actually comes from the Song Dynasty in the south. In the Song Dynasty, these are very gorgeous and priceless brocades in our eyes. They are nothing. Their wealth People wear clothes made of satin like this all year round. As for their emperors and ministers, they wear better clothes than this. The porcelain cups they use for drinking are also thinner, more transparent and lighter than this jade cup. That's why. They are real treasures, these are just commodities used by the Song people to earn horses and money from the Liao people."
Wu Shu's words immediately made several people feel stupid for a while. There was such a thing. They had no idea that the people of Song Dynasty could be so rich. But they also knew that Wu Shu had always liked Han culture, so what he said must be correct.
"If this is really the case, we will join forces with the Song people to destroy the Liao Kingdom this time. After all, we are allies, so we should ask them for some good things. If nothing else, I like cups like this. I will be satisfied with ten of them. "
"Me too, my woman will be very happy to have such satin to wear."
These Jin Kingdom generals all thought about the benefits of obtaining many treasures, and their mouths were full of laughter. But Wu Shu did not answer their words, and even had a sneer on his face. Seeing this, Aguda frowned: "Wu Shu, do you have any other opinions on this?"
"Father, forgive me, I just feel that our requirements are too low. Can we be satisfied just by conquering the Liao Kingdom? Have you ever thought about how we could go south and conquer the entire Song Dynasty? , grabbing all these good things that I regard as treasures, and suppressing those gentle women of the Song Dynasty under our bodies, is this the most wonderful thing in the world?" Wanyan Wushu said Up here, the whole person was full of excitement, waving his hands as if he might fly at any time.
But the monarchs and ministers in front of him were completely shocked by his statement. After a while, Aguda coughed lowly and said, "Attack the Song Dynasty? I'm afraid it won't be easy, right?"
