Chapter 22 The fourth quarter takes the sea mile alone

In order to persuade Yingge to fight against Liao, Xiao Haili promised Yingge a lot of benefits.So, will Yingge be tempted by these high-ranking officials and generous salaries?Seeing that the state affairs of the Liao Kingdom are becoming increasingly chaotic, what new plans will the ambitious Yingge have? Whether Xiao Haili or Emperor Tianzuo has thicker legs, Yingge can figure it out with his toes. He will never oppose Daliao for such a traitor.It was impossible for Yingge to have a second choice. Without even thinking about it, he just bundled up the people sent by Xiao Haili and sent them to the Liao court.This traitor sent people to persuade me to rebel, so I tied him up and asked the court to deal with it.Emperor Tianzuo's heart is happy, and generations of the Qing family have been loyal to Daliao. Since Xiao Haili has fled to your territory, you are obliged to eliminate this traitor for the country.Yingge said, this minister has exactly this intention, and I will definitely send troops to help the court crusade against the traitors.

Following the imperial decree, Yingge justifiably recruited cavalry from various Jurchen tribes to fight against the rebels.This was the first time that the Jurchens fought against the Khitans. In the past, it was a civil war between the Jurchens, regardless of whether they were fighting the "Four King Kongs" or annexing any tribes.Although Xiao Haili's subordinates are mobs, after all they are out-and-out Liao people. This is the first time Jurchens have seen the fighting power of Liao people.Yingge spent all his money, and gathered soldiers and horses in various departments. The cavalry were all wearing iron armor, and their swords, guns, bows and arrows were all refined, and they looked like a regular army.How many people?Thousands of cavalry, at that time the Jurchen tribe tried their best to gather a thousand cavalry, which was already very good.

The two armies started a fierce battle in the Huntong River, which is now the Songhua River Basin.At that time, the Liao Kingdom also sent more than a thousand soldiers to help in the battle. According to historical records: "Mu Zong called the Liao general and said: 'Retire your army, and I will take the sea alone. Just tell the general in command of the Liao Kingdom, withdraw your soldiers, and I will destroy Xiao Haili alone.At that time, many of the Jurchen generals expressed their incomprehension, why are we bothering?Xiao Haili didn't turn against us, he turned against Liao, we vented our anger on Liao's behalf, that's enough justice, the imperial court sent officers and soldiers again, you don't need the help of the officers and soldiers to kill our own people, that's unreasonable.This is not like the unification of the Jurchen ministries we used to do. It is something we have to take advantage of.Why are you doing this?

Mu Zongyingge told his subordinates that you are short-sighted, have you seen the combat effectiveness of the Liao army?It's a waste of help, not enough success, more than failure, not afraid of opponents like wolves, but teammates like pigs, let them fight with Xiao Haili, and we even sent troops to rescue him, what does such an ally want him to do?They have been pampered and pampered for more than a hundred years, and they don't know how to fight. The horse people of that year have degenerated now. Why don't they let them stay and see how our Jurchens flatten Xiao Haili.After pacifying Xiao Haili, we are the first to do it. The imperial court will not treat us badly, and the things rewarded by the imperial court are much better than the things we snatched from the tribe.What's more, this is also a deterrent to the Liao Kingdom, let him see that our Jurchens are no longer what they used to be, so it's not easy to mess with them.Therefore, Mu Zong led his army to start a fierce battle with Xiao Haili.The troops sent by the Liao Kingdom really became spectators on the sidelines, watching the battle there, and commenting on it from time to time.The Jurchens galloped across the battlefield, and Xiao Haili's army couldn't hold on for a while.

In this fierce battle, an outstanding young Jurchen talent emerged. This person was Wanyan Aguda, the Taizu emperor who later established the Jin Kingdom.According to historical records: "Taizu rode his horse into a sudden battle. The arrow hit the head of the sea, fell off the horse in the sea, grabbed it and killed it, and defeated his army." ("Jinshi Muzong Benji") Wanyan Aguda shot an arrow at Xiao Haili's Xiao Haili fell off his horse, and the Jurchen soldiers went up to tie him up and hacked him to death.Xiao Haili's rebel army was completely put down. In this battle, the Jurchen army's powerful combat effectiveness was vividly displayed. More importantly, "the people of Jin knew the changes and changes of Liao soldiers from now on" ("Jin Shimu Zong Benji"). Soldiers are easy to fight.The Liao people said that the Jurchens were less than ten thousand and invincible.Just a thousand people came, and they broke out with such a strong fighting power. If they have to gather 10,000 people, will they still be able to pay off?At this time, Yingge and Aguda's uncles and nephews had a fire burning in their chests, or they had a dream at this time, one day they would drive down the emperor of the Liao Kingdom from the throne, and us marginalized people and forest people would also walk out of the deep mountains Old Lin, live an emperor's addiction.When Emperor Tian Zuo rewarded the Jurchen tribe with a large amount of treasures, the Jurchen no longer took this reward seriously. They had already seen their own strength in the battle, and saw the weakness of the Liao Kingdom. combustion.

Before Yingge could realize his great ideal, he died of illness at the age of fifty-one.
