Suddenly there was a whimpering sound in the Khitan formation, and the order to retreat came out. Yelu Beihan, who had broken his majestic face, lifted the reins, and then rode his cavalry back towards the formation.

As a Khitan prince, he should also meet with the commander of the Wei army, exchange a few words, and then say goodbye to evacuate... But Wang Yanzhang clearly did not give him face, and Yelu Bei knew that he should not take the initiative to come over and take the blame for his humiliation.

The Khitan troops in the brigade naturally could only follow Yelube's orders and began to evacuate one after another. Many of them were indecent and stable, and the generals turned back angrily and glared at the Wei army array, but they were powerful and had no place to exert their anger... They had to unwillingly lead their subordinates to stay away from this city that had been unable to capture for a long time and had already taken the lives of many soldiers.

Under the eyes of those Wei soldiers with evil spirits and indifferent expressions, although the retreating Khitan tribes kept their military appearance as strict as possible and took the initiative to leave with their heads raised. However, they were not as aggressive as they were just about to attack the city. The current situation could be said to have been scared away by the Wei army...

Therefore, many soldiers in the retreating Khitan army were depressed and realized that even if the Later Tang Dynasty was destroyed, the Wei Dynasty still stood in front of him, so they would not be able to expand southward smoothly and then plan for the prosperity of the Central Plains.

Zhao Dejun and Zhao Yanshou did not have to take over the command temporarily, and were responsible for dispatching troops to attack Jixian County, Youzhou... Their father and father followed Yelu Bei with a slut.

To be a "qualified traitor", you must naturally have some eye value. Zhao Dejun and Zhao Yanshou are very aware that Yelu Bei's mood is extremely poor at the moment. It is best to keep silent at this time and never mention topics related to the Wei Dynasty, otherwise it may also cause the anger of the Khitan nobles...

Yelu Bei was well-read in Chinese poetry and books, and had some skills in raising emotions. He knew that even though he was so majestic, he would always look like a stinky face in front of him, which would only make him look even more cowardly... Yelu Bei then laughed and suddenly said to Zhao Dejun, Zhao Yanshou and his son:

"Haha... The Wei Dynasty was indeed very domineering... But during the Wuzhou period, the Han governor was arrogant and insulted, and regarded the leaders of the tribes as slaves. He also fought three times in a row, and then forced me to surrender to the Tang Dynasty... But the so-called majestic Tang Dynasty was destroyed, and my Khitan was able to establish a country and rise, and it would only become stronger!

Didn’t Li Keyong threaten his father to not be able to look south? But the Xiazhou Prefecture, the Li family in Hedong, isn’t it taken by our Khitan now? Although the Wei Dynasty has many soldiers and a large number of generals and is prosperous, it will not go from prosperity to decline in the future, and gives me the Khitan an opportunity to take advantage of..."

After hearing this, Zhao Dejun hurriedly rushed forward and said:

"What Your Highness said is! Although the Emperor of Wei destroyed the Lord of Jin, there were already Shu, Chu, Wu, and Yue... in the south, and the kings of all sides were afraid that the Wei Dynasty would have the intention of looking south, so the situation in the Central Plains was still unstable. And our Khitan was so fierce that the king worked hard to govern and swept across the tribes and tribes in the north. In the future, we would have the opportunity to take advantage of the situation to expand our territory in the south. We were hired by Your Highness, and we would also expand our territory for our Khitan and be willing to make contributions to the front-hand man!"

Yelu Bei looked smiling on his face, and then said:

"With General Zhao's words, I feel at ease. You know that I value you very much... General Zhao and his son are willing to do their best to do their jobs loyally for me, Khitan, and I can also make the decision to give you a fiefdom to manage the Han people. It is a pity that I failed to occupy Youzhou this time... But whether I can take down the Lulong army or not, according to my father's instructions, I will not stay in the Yanyun territory.

It is a matter of time before we raise troops to go south, but you, father and son, have the opportunity to make achievements now. The father is the only one who can promote Han ministers. What he wants to do is not just a prosperous country in the south. After a few more days of rectification, you will also follow me and go to the northeast for a walk..."

When Zhao Dejun and Zhao Yanshou heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other. They also thought of the northeast of the Youyan Land... In addition to the territory controlled by the Khitan Kingdom, the largest separatist force was built by the Sumo-Mike people. They also accepted the enthronement of the Tang Dynasty and still controlled the Bohai Kingdom and other prefectures such as Longquan, Huaiyuan, Anyuan, Dongping, Theorem, Yalu and other prefectures (concentrated in later Heilongjiang, Jilin provinces and part of the Russian Far East).

At present, the Khitan and the Bohai Kingdom have not only become increasingly tense in the struggle for the Liaodong territory, but also several small-scale wars have broken out... The Khitan, who had previously attacked the Gongren, accepted the request of Wang Jian, who usurped the throne and seized power, to quit the war, and its power expanded to the south of the Yalu River and was already eyeing the Yalu Mansion, which was under the rule of the Bohai Kingdom to the east.

At present, the reign of the Bohai Kingdom, the King of the Bohai Kingdom, was located at the junction of the two states (the Fuyu Prefecture (the later Fuzhi was in Nong'an County, Jilin Province) to prevent the Khitan. On the other hand, he frequently sent envoys to negotiate with Yelu Abaoji... However, this separatist regime has been gradually declining for more than two hundred years, and it has long since lost its mighty atmosphere as the "Haidong Prosperity Country". The Khitan, the newly rising empire, was also in a period of mad expansion, and it was certainly inevitable to annex the vast neighboring territory and the decline in national strength.

What's more, the Bohai Kingdom followed the Tang system, and all levels of capital, prefecture, prefecture, and counties divided into Guocheng, palace city, royal city, and lifang, and towers and pavilions in the city. The city was generally built to protect the city walls... The Khitan wanted to use a large number of Han generals with more experience in siege, and of course, it could also play a huge role in attacking the Bohai Kingdom.

The territory of Heshuo Youyun has almost occupied all the territory, and the Wei Dynasty will never allow the Khitan to continue to invade south again... Then there is only the plan to temporarily stand and expand to the south. After hearing Yelu Bei's words, Zhao Dejun and Zhao Yanshou immediately realized that the Khitan should not fight head-on with the Wei Dynasty, but should continue to expand and strengthen its strength... It seems that the next step to send troops is to swallow the entire territory of the Bohai Kingdom in one breath...

As for Wang Yanzhang's cold eyes as the Khitan troops retreated one after another and gradually disappeared from his sight. He snorted coldly, then turned around and drove towards the gradually open Jixian gate.

Although Yelu Bei did not capture Youzhou as he wished, Wu, Ru, Gui, Xin, Tan, Jin... and other prefectures were already occupied by the Khitan. Although Wang Yanzhang had thought of sending troops to capture the military states under the rule of Lu Long's army in one breath. However, since Yelu Bei did not take the initiative to attack because of the provocation, the Wei Dynasty is not convenient for the Wei Dynasty to fight against the Khitan.

After all, the road has to be taken step by step, and the meal has to be eaten one bite at a time. The lord of his own commander has led the army in person and has been in charge of the army for a long time. It is time to return to the court to preside over the national affairs. However, once the battle with the Khitan army begins, it will affect the whole body, and it is very likely that it will evolve into an endless battle.

In the end, we still have to take the overall situation into consideration. Wang Yanzhang knew that he had to coerce the Khitan to give up the capture of Youzhou. Although he had to be tough, the next strategic direction of the Wei Dynasty was of course decided by the Emperor Li Tianqu, and he was not inconvenient to make his own decision...

When Wang Yanzhang was surrounded by a group of military cavalry, he rushed to the completely open city gate. He saw a civil servant walking in front of him and came out to greet the soldiers. Until he came to Wang Yanzhang, the civil servant immediately bowed:

"Liu Shenjiao, the chief secretary of Lu Longjun, please refer to Wang Jinglue...."
