Yelu Pusuwan knew very well that judging from the current situation, leaving Hu Siwo'erduo with sufficient fortifications and defense conditions is basically equivalent to suicide. The move to the capital is very important and there are too many things to handle. I am afraid that I will be caught up by the Ming cavalry on the way and then taken away in a wave of flowing away.

The correct way to do this is to defend Hu Siwo'erduo to wait for Xiao Orila to lead his troops back to help.

So when all the civil and military officials of the court proposed to temporarily shut down the Ming army's front, Yelu Pusuwan insisted not to move the capital, decided to stick to Hu Siwo'erduo, and sent her husband Xiao Duolu not to lead the 20,000 troops that were pieced together to take on the task of defending the city.

Although she is not disliked by Xiao Duolu more and more, there are not many people she can trust in this situation at the moment.

Although Xiao Duolu had no military ability, he was not reckless. He was more cowardly. He was more willing to defend rather than attack. He focused on all the dangerous points to deal with the Ming army's attack.

As it turns out, this is indeed the best response, but the enemy they face is too strong, and even the best decision they can make, they cannot turn the situation around.

On November 25, the vanguard of the Ming army arrived about thirty miles east of Husiwuerduo, and met the Western Liao expedition rangers. The two sides fought and the Ming army pioneers won a small victory.

When the Western Liao court heard the news of the arrival of the Ming army, the court was further shocked and deeply shocked by the terror of the Ming army.

From Hexi to Husiwuerduo, only businessmen could pass through in previous years. Because the distance was too far, the logistics resources needed for the army to dispatch were astronomical. Yelu Dashi and the Jin army had not succeeded, but the Ming army did it.

How strong are their logistics and transportation capabilities?

It may indicate how strong the country's national strength is.

As a mature ruler, Yelu Pusuwan sat upright on the throne without saying a word, his face was as normal as he was, and he still looked calm.

This is her political literacy, but this does not mean that she is not afraid.

The national strength of Mingguo sent a large number of field troops across a thousand miles made her feel scared. She felt that she was facing an ancient ferocious beast. For the first time, the idea of ​​[not wanting to continue fighting with this country] rose in her heart.

After all, she had no idea what complicated interest disputes were between the Western Liao and the Ming Kingdom so that they had to fight each other.

There is no diplomatic relationship between the two countries!

Yes, why did the Ming Kingdom attack the Western Liao Dynasty?

She was too panicked before and didn't even think of this key point.

"There is no exchange between the Great Liao and the Ming Kingdom, and there should be no conflict or entanglement. It is really not a benevolent act. I should send envoys to inquire about it."

She did this so that she could figure out why Mingguo wanted to raise troops and what reasons were there. It would be the best if she could defeat others without fighting.

Secondly, we can delay some time and strive to wait until Xiaoorila arrives with 50,000 elite troops and reinforcements from the Karakhan Kingdom.

So Yelu Pusuwan turned to appoint Xiao Duolu as a negotiator and led his team of envoys to the Ming army camp to engage in diplomatic exchanges with the Ming army.

She didn't believe that Ming Jun didn't even give her the opportunity to talk.

Ming Jun gave her a chance to talk.

The reason is that Su Haisheng is also waiting for the firearms of the first battalion of the Divine Machinery to arrive at the front line.

He observed the stronger defense abilities around Hu Siwu'er and the city body, and thought it would be better to wait for the first-class firearm troops to arrive.

If the Liao people are willing to talk, then they can talk. There is nothing wrong with it. By the way, let the army that has been rushing to fight and rest and maintain their energy.

While ordering the army to replenish meat, Su Haisheng announced his reception with the Western Liao envoys.

After Xiao Duolu did not enter the Ming army's barracks, he could clearly feel the strength of the Ming army.

Everything he saw was very organized. Some people patrol, some people sorted out their equipment, some people wiped the body of the war horse, some people prepared meals, and some people conducted military training. There were obviously many people doing things, but there was no slight disorder.

This is a kind of strictness brought about by high discipline, like the various components in a precision instrument, which look scattered, but actually are strict, and each has its own operating rules.

This rigor can be directly transformed into a terrifying deterrent.

Xiao Duolu didn't swallow his saliva, secretly complaining in her heart that her wife who was becoming more and more fierce, unreasonable and looked down on him.

He actually said something like "You have always understood Chinese studies and sent you to communicate with the Han people and try to resign them. In this way, you will be my husband."

Listen, is this human word?

Can a normal person say this?

He was really worried that he would stand and come back lying down.

But there was no choice but to go to Su Haisheng's military tent under the guidance of Ming soldiers and saw Su Haisheng's tall and majestic man with a beard.

Su Haisheng was not wearing armor, wearing regular clothes, and looked at Xiao Duolu who came to the military tent with a serious face.

"Why don't the envoy of the Great Liao Dynasty, please pay homage to General Su."

Xiao Duolu did not act as a nobleman in Western Liao. He learned Chinese since childhood, understood some of the history and cultural customs of the Central Plains, and had a certain foundation in Sinology. When facing Su Haisheng, he could speak fluent Yanyun Chinese dialect.

Su Haisheng sat upright on his head, just nodded slightly, and his body did not move.

"What's the matter with the Liao envoy here?"

Xiao Duolu stopped standing up straight.

"My Lord came here specially, and what he did was the reason why the Ming Kingdom launched a military force to attack. The Liao and Ming Kingdom had never had any official exchanges before this. There was only business and travelers exchanged with each other, so there was no possibility of guilt for each other.

If this is the case, our Lord really cannot understand that it is impossible to raise troops to attack for the sake of the Ming Dynasty, and there is no sign of any advance. With such unreasonable troops and unrestrained countries, this is not a responsibility that a great country should have. My Lord is puzzled, so he sent him down to inquire."

Su Haisheng smiled.

"A warrior without reason? A country without fault? This is wrong? The land occupied by the country was three hundred years ago, but the territory of the Tang Dynasty was the land of the Central Plains. Is it wrong for our country to raise troops to conquer the lost land of the Central Plains?"

Xiao Duolu was surprised to hear this.

"How can the things three hundred years ago be counted as today? What's more, there is no relationship between the Ming Kingdom and the Tang Dynasty. How can we say that our territory is the land of the Central Plains? This statement must not be convinced by the world, nor by the Great Liao."

"Hahahahahahaha! Can't you believe it? Do you know the history of the Central Plains' development of the Western Regions? Do you need me to tell it for you?"

Su Haisheng smiled and said, "From the development of the Han Dynasty to the management of the Tang Dynasty, the Central Plains dynasties have put in great effort to develop and build the Western Regions, and invested a lot of money. What you now have may not be the development of the Tang Dynasty three hundred years ago.

Doesn’t this mean that this land is the homeland of the Central Plains? The Liao Kingdom forcibly owned the homeland of the Central Plains and enjoyed the foundation that the Central Plains dynasty invested in silver and money. Now he is shameless and shameless and says this is your territory? I have never seen such a shameless person!"
