Zhao Yuanzuo looked at Zhao Ying's happy appearance and said happily: "Yingzi, will I teach you a song?"

"Okay! Brother can still sing? I didn't expect this?"

"What are you talking about? Brother, I used to be the king of the unit. When will there be events, my brother is the champion. Come and sing with me.

I want to go to the mountains and rivers in the distance, and to the beach to see seagulls. No matter how many wind and rain are, it is enough to have you. I like to look at the corners of your mouth and the tips of your eyebrows. White clouds hang in the blue sky, like your smile.

You look so beautiful when you smile, like the flowers in spring, blowing away all your worries, sorrows and sorrows. You look so beautiful when you smile, like the summer sunshine, and the whole world's time, as beautiful as a scroll..."

Zhao Yuanzuo's voice was not loud, but the song was very cheerful and fresh, which made people feel warm when they listened to it, and they wanted to repeat it with him.

"Did your brother say to me?" The sweetness on Zhao Ying's face was about to overflow, and it was really like a flower.

"Of course it's our Yingzi!" Zhao Yuanzuo answered affirmatively, and Zhao Ying's eyes were no longer smiling.

"It's ready! Everyone is out for dinner!" Zhao Yuanzuo greeted and everyone sat around. Zhao Ying quickly picked up some dishes and said, "I'll go and send them to the master."

The eighth sister and ninth sister blushed, and she was also a disciple! Why wasn't she as good as a child? She forgot the teacher. Thinking of this, the two stood up and said, "We'll also go deliver food to the master!" As she said that, she ran away as if she was flying.

"Yingzi, my brother will practice military training with his two sisters later. You must practice martial arts well at home."

Zhao Ying nodded constantly and agreed, but his eyes were full of reluctance.

Zhao Yuanzuo laughed and said, "Yesterday, I asked you for a peach blossom horse from Chen Tong. You must treat it well. We Yingzi will be famous all over the world and be proficient in everything."

Zhao Ying suddenly became interested and kept urging: "Where is it? Brother, take me to see it!"

Zhao Yuanzuo laughed and said, "I was tied to the stable in the front yard yesterday. Hurry up and I will take it to see you later!"

Zhao Ying could no longer wait, and finished her meal in a few bites. Her mouth was full of food, her little mouth was bulging, chewing like a little rabbit; she was so whimpering that she couldn't even explain her words.

Zhao Yuanzuo and the other two burst into laughter. Seeing that Yingzi was really anxious, they hurriedly ate breakfast and took her to the front yard.

There is a huge stable in the front yard, which is more than enough to put more than a dozen horses. There are only four horses in it now, except for Zhao Yuanzuo's curly lion patriarch, and the eighth sister and ninth sister's rouge. There is also a half-large horse in the corner. The background of this horse is light red and there are some dark spots on its body, just like the petals of peach blossoms, all of which are also called peach blossom horses.

Although the foal was still young, Zhao Ying fell in love with it at a glance. The little girl was anxious and wanted to ride on it now and gallop across it.

Seeing her anxious look, Zhao Yuanzuo was also a little funny, so he quickly stepped forward, untied the reins, and led the peach blossom horse out.

Zhao Ying ran over with her short legs. She stretched out her arms to reach the horse's head. The peach blossom horse looked at the little guy and was also a little close to her, lowering her head to lick her little hand.

Zhao Ying giggled and said, "Brother, look, Xiao Ma likes Yingzi."

"Yingzi is so cute, it's not surprising that she likes you. It's abnormal if anyone doesn't like you? You have to treat her well!"

Zhao Ying nodded constantly and agreed to the matter. Zhao Yuanzuo then took him to see his mother and Yuanhui, and then said goodbye to his eighth sister and ninth sister.

Zhao Yuanzuo was going to the yamen of the military farm department, and he separated from his eighth sister and ninth sister halfway.

The yamen was still very busy. Zhao Yuanzuo handled the backlog of government affairs and then asked someone to invite Chen Tong over.

Chen Tong was a little nervous, wondering what Zhao Yuanzuo had to do with him?

"Greetings to Your Highness!" Chen Tong bowed as soon as he saw that.

"Chen Tong gets up! Don't think too much, I just have some things to ask for. "

"I don't dare to take it if I ask you. As long as I know, I will definitely tell you everything."

"Okay! Chen Tong, don't be polite, let's sit down and talk! Give General Chen a seat."

Zhao Yuanzuo ordered that someone brought a chair. Chen Tong sat down while rubbing the chair but didn't dare to relax. His whole body was tense and he was ready to stand up and answer the question at any time.

"Don't be nervous, Chen Tong, since you often do business with the Liao Kingdom, you also know some of the situations in their country, right? Can you tell me about the history of the Liao Kingdom?"

"The history of the Liao Kingdom?" Chen Tong was stunned for a moment and said, "Your Highness, the Liao Kingdom has just been 70 years old and has no history.

I have just heard of some. During the Five Dynasties, Yelu Abaoji, the leader of the Khitan Diela tribe, took advantage of the civil strife in the Central Plains to unify the tribes, and replaced Hendejin Khan and became the Khan four years after the replacing the Handejin Khan.

He successively suppressed the rebellion of the Khitan nobles and conquered the Xi, Shiwei, and Zubu tribes, and held the salt-producing areas in the Mongolian region, which were very strong in both military and economic aspects. In the first year of Zhenming of Liang, Yelu Abaoji went to the expedition of Shiwei and returned to the country, but was forced to hand over the throne of Khan. Soon he built a city wall imitating Youzhou by the Luan River. In the second year of Zhenming, Yelu Abaoji became emperor, established the Khitan Kingdom, and established the Yuanshen Book, namely the Emperor of Liao.

Emperor Taizu of Liao took in refugees who were in war in Hebei and established a city on the grassland according to the Central Plains style to resettle them. He also appointed Han Yanhui, Han Zhigu, Kang Moji and Lu Wenjin as the heroes of the Han people.

In the third year of the Khitan God Book, the Emperor Taizu of Liao established Linhuang Prefecture (now Boluo City south of Balin Zuo Banner, Inner Mongolia). Two years later, Khitan characters were created and implemented.

In terms of military affairs, he conquered the Bohai Kingdom in the fourth year of Tianzan, established the Dongdan Kingdom in the old place to rule the remaining people of the Bohai Sea, and appointed the Crown Prince Yelu Bei as the King of Dongdan.

Since the beginning of Emperor Taizu of Liao, he had the intention of expeditioning the Central Plains in the south. However, the following year after the conquering Bohai, he fell ill on his way back and finally died. His wife Empress Shulu (Shuluping) announced the regent, and the second son of the emperor, Yelu Deguang, took charge of the government affairs, massacred hundreds of political enemies to stabilize the regime. In November of the second year of Tianxian, Yelu Deguang ascended the throne with the support of Empress Shulu, namely Emperor Taizong of Liao. In the fifth year of Tianxian, King Yelu Bei of Dongdan fled south to the Later Tang Dynasty, Emperor Taizong of Liao unified the Khitan.

They had always wanted to advance to the Central Plains. Civil strife occurred in the Later Tang Dynasty. The Hedong Jiedushi Shi Jingtang asked Emperor Taizong of Liao to support and send troops to attack the Later Tang Dynasty on the condition of claiming to be his son emperor and ceding the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun. Emperor Taizong of Liao personally led 50,000 cavalry to defeat the Later Tang army in Jinyang and Luoyang, and finally assisted Shi Jingtang in conquering the Later Tang Dynasty. Shi Jingtang was able to establish the Later Jin Dynasty. After the Khitan Kingdom obtained the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, it built the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun into a base for further southward movement; it also left huge hidden dangers for our Central Plains.

This Khitan means 正博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博博�

Zhao Yuanzuo nodded slightly and said, "Well, they have been established for 70 years, and are they established for more than 40 years before us?"

"Yes! The Liao Kingdom has been passed down for 5 generations now. But the emperor of the Liao Kingdom is young and is now the regent of the Empress Dowager Xiao Chuo."

Zhao Yuanzuo nodded and said, "You are right, so let me ask you again, are you talking about the strength of Liao Kingdom or is our Song Dynasty stronger?"

Chen Tong was stunned for a moment. Is this question difficult to answer? How to say this thing? In front of a country's prince, I said that the strength of the Song Dynasty was not as strong as that of the Liao Kingdom. Is this seeking death? But if you lie, judging from the previous style of conduct, this person is not easy to cheat!

"Tell the truth!" Zhao Yuanzuo also saw his hesitation and snorted.

"Yes!" Chen Tong said quickly: "Your Highness, if you say that the article and the wealthy Liao Kingdom can't catch up with us, but they also have their advantages. These people are born to grow up on horseback, and they are brave and good at fighting. If they are fighting, we are still at a disadvantage. After all, they are cavalry, and we are infantry, and they are a little worse in nature."

Zhao Yuanzuo nodded and said, "What you said is true! The enemy's innate conditions are not better than us. This is the time to occupy the heavens. Shi Jingtang, that bastard, ceded the Sixteen State of Youyun, and was possessed by the enemy again!

The right time and place are not good for us. Do you want to talk about harmony between people? How about Empress Dowager Xiao, Han Derang, Yelu Xiuge, and Yelu Xizhen compared to several of the current dynasty?”

Chen Tong was so scared that his color was pale, and his sweat fell down and said, "Your Highness, I am just a slut, how can I dare to discuss the imperial court's husband?"

Zhao Yuanzuo snorted and said, "It's not that you dare not talk about it, it's not that you dare not say it! In fact, we must boldly admit that Empress Xiao is as good as a woman, and she has the means of the Martial Arts Empress; Han Derang, Yelu Xiuge, and Yelu Xizhenheng can defeat our Song army twice, and they are all geniuses! So is this person in harmony? The Liao Kingdom has it together!"

"Your Highness's Holy Wisdom!" Chen Tong quickly stood up and shouted.

Zhao Yuanzuo waved his hand and said, "No need to say anything complimenting nonsense! Chen Tong, did you see it? The right time, place, people and us did not take it, so this battle is real and difficult to fight."

Chen Tong lowered his head and dared not speak.

Zhao Yuanzuo sighed and said, "So we have spent so many people now, and we have spent countless energy, financial resources, and material resources to change the sea to mulberry fields, just for the disadvantage of this geographical advantage.

This is not enough. We also need to make up for the innate gap between the two sides. We need to ask General Chen to help me with this!"

"Ah!" Chen Tong really didn't expect that what kind of benefits he could help with this?

Zhao Yuanzuo's eyes flashed with a gleam of light: "If you want to defeat Liao Kingdom, the first step is to weaken him and strengthen ourselves! It's not easy to do this. Chen Tong, would you like to help me?"

"I will never refuse!" Chen Diteng stood up with a sound, lying on the ground and kowtowed constantly.
Chapter completed!
