Became a feudal lord in the late Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 79 A sound of greed

Liu Ling knew about Yizhou, not only because Yizhou was right next door to his Zhuozhou, but also because the original guard of Yizhou, named Gao Feng, was now imprisoned in Zhuozhou City.

Although he was said to be locked up, he was actually under house arrest. Liu Ling intended to use him, so he didn't let his subordinates deliberately mess with him.

But compared to the torture of food and clothing, being locked up in prison for a long time without knowing whether he would end up dead or alive was the most painful thing. When Gao Feng saw Liu Ling again, Liu Ling saw that this man's face was too thin to look like. His face looked sallow.

"General Liu, General Liu!" Gao Feng desperately stretched out a finger outside the iron bars, trying to touch Liu Ling's hand, "Whether it's life or death, please give me a happy word!"

Liu Ling stared at him for a while and then said slowly: "This time I am going to attack Yizhou. I want to ask you, you should know where the money, food and weapons in Yizhou are stored, right?"

"Yes, and I also know which family is the richest in Yizhou, which county has the largest population, and my family still has a lot of land and property, and I have a fortune of millions."

"I don't want your family property," Liu Ling reached out and touched his finger, and whispered: "If you help me well this time, I will not only let you out, but also let you continue to be an official, and even I’ll give you another fortune.”

Shi Liai, who was standing nearby, shook his head slightly and suddenly said: "General, what's the use of keeping him? Even if he doesn't say this, someone in Yizhou must know about it. Kill this guy and take his head to the Song Army. Wouldn’t it be great to repay your merits?”

He was standing in the darkness next to him. Gao Feng could only hear his voice, and immediately roared madly: "Who wants to harm me? Since I surrender, I will definitely be loyal to General Liu. I will tell the truth. I know better than them." Everyone has more! General Liu, let me out and I will tell you everything!"

"Also." He seemed to have remembered something and suddenly shouted: "Previously, Medicine Master Guo sent someone to send one of Zhang Jue's sons to Yizhou to hide. General Liu, if you seize the time, go and capture his son. , his head is worth more than mine, General Liu!"

"You are not ambiguous." Liu Ling stood up, nodded slightly to Shi Liai in the darkness, and said, "This is the envoy of Master Tong. If he doesn't let you go, I won't be able to accept you."

Shi Liai immediately said in a deep voice: "This traitor rebelled against Liao and Song. He has no loyalty at all. My Grand Master does not want such a waste."

"Master?"

Gao Feng was stunned and begged repeatedly. Liu Ling looked at his appearance and thought that this guy probably didn't have much contact with Tong Guan.

"Okay, Master Tong's envoy has left."

Liu Ling squatted in front of the prison door again, "I will spare your life. This time I go to Yizhou. If I get what I want, I will not only give you life, but also give you wealth. But if you dare to deceive me at all, , I will chop you alive after that. You make your own choice."

It's not that Liu Ling insisted on taking the risk of using him. In fact, when the friendly army was the Song Army, Liu Ling was even more willing to trust Gao Feng.

"I am willing to follow the general, I am willing, I am willing!"

Liu Ling didn't give him a clear reply. He just came out of the prison and had nothing else to do. It happened to be dark outside, so he went straight back home.

The atmosphere in the general's mansion was quite strange.

Even women in ancient times did not like their husbands to bring other women into the house. Some women were not allowed to do so even if they were known to be jealous.

But this time Liu Ling almost died in Jizhou. Wan Niang was so confused that she even ignored the child in her belly and went directly to the top of the city to beat drums to help the battle. Then when she saw Liu Ling coming back, she calmed down and was frightened for a while.

Just marry as many as you want.

As long as it's safe and sound.

If the Song Dynasty wanted to "ruly Yan with Liao" in the land of Yan, it would definitely have to erect a memorial arch for the princess of Liao. The best way was to let her marry a Song person.

Liu Ling was not the first choice. But Tong Guan had a close friendship with Liu Ling, so he naturally took the initiative to take over the matter, thinking that Liu Ling could marry the princess of Liao.

Of course, Wan Niang couldn't understand the thoughts of the big shots, so she just comforted herself: the princess of Liao Kingdom also had to serve her tea and bow her head in acknowledgment, so she finally had a big face.

When Liu Ling came to her room, he was about to push the door open and found that the door was locked. After knocking twice, the wife did not joke and asked him to sleep in the small courtyard where Yelu Yuliyan lived tonight.

Liu Ling gave a bitter smile and turned around to see Yelu Huaixian standing at the entrance of the courtyard.

Under the moonlight, she was dressed in plain clothes and a girl's hair accessories. She had a smile on her face, looking cute and cute.

"Go, find a place for me to sleep." Liu Ling didn't plan to touch the princess tonight. It wasn't that he didn't dare to touch her, but he simply wasn't in the mood.

We will go out to fight again in a few days, so why not recharge our batteries?

He gave the order, but Yelu Huaixian did not move. Instead, he raised his head, took the initiative to come over, hugged Liu Ling from behind, and pressed his face against his back. What he heard seemed to be the pounding of his own heartbeat.

"Master," she breathed out like a blue, rubbed her hands, and whispered in Liu Ling's ear: "The eldest lady is pregnant and needs to go to bed early. You will go on an expedition in a few days, and there must be someone to warm up at night. Why don't you go Sleep in your slave’s room.”

Her hand seemed to have touched something, and she suddenly laughed with great satisfaction, but Liu Ling remained silent. She simply became bolder and begged: "Master, slave, slave is still pure and perfect, not like that Princess, as long as I want it. Oops"

Yelu Huaixian's voice immediately became lower, hidden in his increasingly rosy face, and he smiled softly.

She lay on the bed, holding the bed handle, turning her head to look at Liu Ling, her eyes as charming as silk, trying hard to let him hear her slight breathing.

"Master, let me leave a seed for you."

On the bed, a red plum blossom was gradually embroidered, depicting a lusty and joyful style.

"I don't want to follow Liu Ling!"

When Xin Xingzong was found, he had snatched a passerby's clothes and put them on, and was hiding in the woods shivering from the cold. The news that he had been defeated without a fight had already spread throughout the army and became a laughing stock.

The person who delivered the order gave him a cold look. He really didn't like this kind of comrade in the army. He said a few words casually, turned around and left, regardless of whether Xin Xingzong wanted to or not.

He sat in the camp and cursed for a while, then had no choice but to obey the orders honestly.

Although Xin Xingzong was a "second generation general", his foundation and power in the army all came from Tong Guan. If he did not obey the latter, he would not have everything in front of him.

As long as he wins Yizhou, he will be proud and proud!
  The March Alliance meeting was approaching, so there was no further delay. In the past two days, Tong Guan mobilized at least 6,000 soldiers, and specially gave 500 cavalry to the cavalry in the army, of course to Xin Xingzong.

For Liu Ling, he could only raise 3,000 troops and horses again. In addition to the original soldiers of his headquarters, there were also as many capable soldiers as possible selected from the captured Changsheng Army and Pingzhou Army. The armor equipment rate was quite good, but The cavalry suffered heavy losses before, and this time they could only pull out 200 cavalry. In addition, more of them were used as sentry cavalry.

As for the 1,500 Song troops that Tong Guan later forcibly sent, Liu Ling didn't take any of them and just placed them in Zhuozhou City to defend the city.

Who is a decent person to attack Song soldiers?
  　Today I have updated four chapters and more than 12,000 words, so that’s it.

　　The initial order now is only 300, I hope it will be more tomorrow, alas.

　　I will post individual chapters later and create a book club. Thank you all for your support tonight!
