Many historical examples of turning defeat into victory are actually filled with too many accidents when looking at the battlefield at that time.

For example, this time, Liu Shouwen used the Khitan and the tens of thousands of cavalry in Tuyuhun, and finally had the opportunity to destroy Liu Shouguang who usurped power and imprisoned their father, and urged his horse to run to the formation and shouted not to hurt my brother's life... However, due to the progress of current affairs, the position of the powerful general Yuan Xingqin under Liu Shouguang may not be able to ride forward to capture Liu Shouwen, and kill him immediately end the war.

So the war between Liu Shouguang and Liu Shouwen was later: Liu Shouwen came to the front of the formation and shouted at the top of his voice, but it still had a certain effect. The head of the Khitan and Tuyuhun cavalry looked at him with a strange expression, thinking that you asked us for reinforcements, intending to destroy Liu Shouguang, the second brother who imprisoned your son, but now he cries, why are you so deep brotherly love? Are you fucking sick?

Taking advantage of this opportunity, although Yuan Xingqin would no longer have the opportunity to drive forward and capture Liu Shouwen alive, he and his comrade-commanding general Shan Tinggui worked together to protect Liu Shouguang, led the remnants to quickly escape from the battlefield, and then returned to Youzhou to defend the city...

Therefore, this war in Yan, which could have been determined to determine the outcome, would have turned into a tug-of-war.

Because of the Khitan and the tens of thousands of cavalry of the Tuyuhun people played an important role in this war. Liu Shouguang was a little shocked, so he immediately sent Han Yanhui to the north to negotiate: Isn’t you just to help Liu Shouwen attack me? Isn’t it just to seek more benefits? Why don’t you come to help me, and I will give you more benefits!

If the situation continues to develop like this, it is the result that Li Tianqu most reluctant to see.

Originally, Liu Shouwen and Liu Shouguang's old man Liu Rengong were not able to bear it, but he was very good at fighting the Khitan. As a result, one of these two unfilial sons imprisoned him, and the other brought the northern aliens to his territory... And Liu Shouwen and Liu Shouguang kept raising the conditions he offered like an auction in order to get the strong help from the Khitan. What kind of evil consequences will this lead to?

Later, Shi Jingtang was sent to attack by Li Congke, the last emperor of the Later Tang Dynasty, so he asked Yelu Deguang, the son of Khitan Yelu Abaoji, for help, and promised to ced the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, pay tribute every year, and regard himself as a son's country... Li Tianqu guessed that Liu Shouguang was a man of nature, and he could definitely do such a thing as cede land and selling the country.

After all, because Zhu Wen killed Zhaozong one after another, Emperor Ai and the two Tang emperors were earlier, Liu Rengong no longer had to take charge of himself as the governor of the Tang Dynasty, so he claimed to have established the king of Yan. But in fact, although he was ambitious, he had annexed the Henghai Army and intended to dominate Heshuo, according to historical records, he still dominated the two towns as the governor. However, his son Liu Shouguang was not only cruel and arrogant, but not only coveted the identity of King Yan, but also had a much stronger ambition to become emperor than his.

Liu Rengong ordered the people under his command to use mud money and arrest the strong men as the army. Liu Shouguang's methods were even more ruthless. He also set up many tortures such as iron brushes and fire roasting, but he still promoted tyranny. Whoever dared to advise him not to claim himself to be emperor in vain, so he ordered his soldiers to cut his meat piece by piece. He killed the envoys sent by Jin State who refused to surrender, and imprisoned Liang State to threaten to not recognize his throne and chopped them into meat with an axe... In order to offend Li Cunxu in one breath, he could do both the bosses of Zhu Wen, and to seize control of Yan State, of course he could do anything.

In this way, Liu Shouguang would rather give up some territory to the Khitan than let his brother control the Yan State. And the Khitan had the opportunity to enter the land of Yanyun early and lay the foundation... If he wanted to retake it, Chairong of the Later Zhou Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyi... The Central Plains Dynasty had been successively expeditions of the northern expeditions of several generations of kings, but it was not successful. How could the Khitan be willing to spit out the meat he swallowed into his mouth?

The geographical location of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun is too important... According to the later "Khitan Kingdom" "Yan and Yan states are built, and the world is built to divide the vassals. The Han Dynasty is bound by one man as a pass, and ten thousand men cannot move forward." Not only does the Central Plains dynasty resist the natural barrier of the invasion of the north and the south, it will also be a bridgehead for future preservation of the Northeast region...

Li Tianqu thought in his heart that even if he had the previous plan, he had the concerns of Jin State, he should avoid the premature border with the Khitan forces... But now it seems that even if the hegemony of the heroes in Central China is temporarily delayed, he must definitely stop Liu Shouguang and Liu Shouwen would probably take the action of cede land. After all, in the long run, the ownership of the land of Yanyun is related to the national destiny of the Han civilization in the Central Plains in the next dynasties and generations...

"Our dynasty has been recuperating for a long time, and the Ziqing Army has prepared military service and horses, which is also a morale for the army. I passed on my imperial decree and ordered Wang Shifan and Liu Zhijun to send troops to the navy to pacify refugees in the north who were poisoned by war.

The Khitan and Tuyuhun cavalry traveled in You and Cang, and we faced northwards De and Di, and the Henghai Army. We told the troops of the Rong border that once the Khitan and Tuyuhun cavalry were found robbing the bandits near the border, we did not have to hold back and we could kill and destroy them!

Whether it was Khitan Hanhen Dejin or Yu Yue Yelu Abaoji, they had to teach them to understand: even if they took advantage of the internal struggle between Liu Shouguang and Liu Shouwen of Yan State, they would have the opportunity to expand south. However, Lu Long, south of the Henghai, is not only the territory of our dynasty, but also destined not to allow them to gain a foothold in Yanyun."

The Bianjing Imperial City was handled by Li Tianqu every day in the Chuigong Hall where he summoned all his ministers to discuss national affairs. After hearing Li Tianqu's long speech, several of them were also a little surprised.

After all, our own forces are hostile to Liang, and there are actually undercurrents with Jin, Wu and other countries. Although many surrounding vassal states have expressed their respect for the above, their primary and secondary status may not be maintained... Under this situation, if there is a possibility of a war breaking out with the Khitan in the north, they will probably be restrained to a considerable part of the military power.

However, although the decisions of the troops from the Han Navy to resist the Khitan and Tuyuhun tribes were inappropriate, the advisers present were all well-educated, and they could quickly understand Li Tianqu’s intentions.

The heroes in the Middle Earth ruled and attacked each other, but they were all Han men from the former Tang Dynasty. Even though Li Keyong was dominated by the Shatuo people, they had been in the Chinese for a long time. Except for shooting hard bows and riding bad horses in the north, their words and deeds were no different from those of ordinary Han people.

However, the situation of the Khitan scattered in the White Mountains and Black Waters was completely different. Li Guangbi, the famous general who was granted the title of the national surname in the Tang Dynasty. He made great contributions to the Anshi Rebellion back then, was a Khitan tribe, but he was also a minority group among the minority in that nation. At least at present, the Khitan tribes were limited in influence by the Han civilization. No matter how fierce the forces in the Middle Land fought, they would regard the political system of the nomadic civilization in the north as a foreign race and treated by outsiders.

The rebellion of the Eight Kings of the Sima Jin Dynasty also formed a chaotic pattern of great division. At that time, the warlords of various sides were like Liu Shouguang and Liu Shouwen, who invited the Xianbei and Xiongnu to help attack their opponents. If this phenomenon became more and more serious, even if it would not cause the tragedy of the Five Barbarians invasion of China, it would also give the northern alien races the opportunity to migrate south and take root and grow... Therefore, even if it is not conducive to the strategic planning of their own forces, the hidden dangers of foreign races invading Middle-earth must be eradicated from the very beginning.

Therefore, no one of the counselors present stood up to persuade Li Tianqu. However, Yan Keqiu frowned slightly. After thinking for a while, he said:

"In recent years, the Khitan has successively attacked the tribes in the northern region. Although the trend is getting bigger, it is estimated that they still dare not be enemies with our dynasty... It is just that the Yan State leads Lu Long and Henghai Towns. Our dynasty will not try to send troops to merge. This can also be said to be an unwritten consensus between His Majesty and the King of Jin.

Originally, the Yan domestic battle was fought, after all, the Crown Prince Liu Shouwen took the initiative to invite Khitan, and tens of thousands of cavalry troops entered the country to help, but our dynasty had no reason to interfere... If we force troops, will the Khitan be deterred and retreated? It is impossible to make a conclusion now. What needs to be considered more is, what will the King of Jin react?"
