The Khitan Dynasty was a complex of agricultural society and nomadic society. The Khitan ruling group always maintained a nomadic lifestyle of carriages and horses as their homes, so it was called Xingchao. It is precisely for this reason that the local administrative system of the Liao Dynasty was quite chaotic.

The settings of prefectures and counties are quite casual, and there are many prefectures and counties with the same name, which makes it difficult to tell how many prefectures there were in the Liao Dynasty. This can also be regarded as a national characteristic!

Yuanzhou is one of the many prefectures of the Liao Kingdom, but this state is a bit special. It is a private city. After the founding of the Khitan State, the nobles captured or granted populations and their original slaves and tribes, and their own slaves and tribes.

The land that was occupied or distributed was established, and the Han people who formed the heads of the Han people could not leave the farming area, and the Khitan lords of the heads of the heads of the land could not build their private cities in the Han areas far from the grassland, so they chose this way.

A junction of farming and nomadism to build their heads private town.

Generally speaking, the royal family kings, princesses and descendants can build state cities under the head, and the rest cannot build cities. They can only build forts and villages to distinguish them from other types of construction. Most of the population under the head comes from Hebei, Shanxi and

The former Bohai Kingdom was all Han or Bohai people. They had identities including farmers, handicraftsmen, and slaves. The former was dependent on the identity, while the latter was slaves, and the proportion of slaves was small.

Before the alliance between the Chanyuan of Liao and Song dynasties, wars were frequent and a large number of people were captured, so there were more military states in the head. Later, there were fewer wars and the source of prisoners decreased, so it was difficult to use the captive population to increase the number of military states in the head.

The general trend of the state, as a result, was decreasing, and almost disappeared by the end of Liao. However, the Xianchen was able to preserve the family until now because of several queens in Yuanzhou. But today's life is quite sad...

In the sunset, a team of Liao troops with thousands of cavalry came from the north, raising the dust and smoke. The knights on the horse were chatting and laughing, and the broken armor leaves on their bodies and the undried blood on the tip of the gun showed that they had just done it.

In the battle, they were tied with a long rope behind their horses, and a string of men and women were tied to them. The team was mixed with thousands of horses and countless cattle and sheep, which were obviously their spoils.

"Miss Five, the Black Slaves are so brave that they dare to plunder on our territory. They are really looking for death!" A Liao general said respectfully to the chief general.

"Hmph. They should be unlucky this time. When they met our five girls, they not only lost their troops and generals, but also had their homes and occupied the ranch!" Another Liao general said proudly.

"Abuhe, you said that the population of the Black Slaves is only a thousand tents, and the armored soldiers are less than a thousand cavalry. Why dare to invade my ranch?" The fifth girl ignored the flattery of the two and asked back.

"Miss Five, now Zhongjing, Tokyo is all criticized by the Jurchen thieves. The emperor took refuge in Xijing. There was chaos everywhere, no one obeyed the dispatch. They all wanted to take the opportunity to occupy territory in order to protect themselves!" Abuhe looked at the five girls around him and thought.

Something could be seen from her face. But there was nothing on the fifth girl's face covered with a scarf. He thought about it and said.

"Didn't you find anything different among the killed black slave tribe soldiers?" the fifth girl asked coldly, glanced at Abu and asked.

"No...no, did you find it?" Abuhe tightened his whole body when he was seen by the fifth girl, and quickly avoided and turned around and asked. He was the hometown general of the Duwei Mansion. In his impression, he was young.

The fifth girl is an innocent and happy little girl. She was separated from a tribal conflict more than ten years ago. She suddenly returned home a few months ago, but she became another person. No one has ever seen her laugh. But he is a

Although the slaves are strange, they dare not ask.

"Commander, I'm just wondering. I haven't heard of any powerful generals in the Black Slave Army in the past, but today we went to fight and encountered a team of people who were very fierce and fought to the death without surrendering. Especially the leader injured more than ten of us in a row.

Brother, later the fifth girl took action to deal with him. Did they ask for help?" Zaltima said forward.

"Those people are Jurchens. Although they have changed their clothes, there are traces of braids on the back of their heads!" said the fifth girl.

"The black slaves colluded with the Jurchens?" Abuhe said in surprise. Wonju is adjacent to Zhongjing Road and Tokyo Road, and is in the hinterland of the Liao Kingdom. However, now Zhongjing Road and Tokyo Road are the world of Jurchens, and this place is on the verge of attacks between the Jurchens on both sides.

Below, Yuanzhou is a strategic fortress connected by the three capitals, and it is a must-pass place for the Jin army to attack Xijing Road. So it seems that the Jin army is going to attack them.

"From all the signs, the Jurchens are about to advance troops to Yuanzhou. They will send orders to order all units to strengthen their vigilance and send the Zhala army out of the city for fifty miles, and the enemy situation will be quickly rewarded!" said the fifth girl.

"Yes, I will do it immediately!" Zhale immediately pointed a group of troops into two teams and headed in two directions.

"Oh, what the prince said is true. The world has been in chaos. I have prepared for this day for more than ten years. Can I stop the Jurchen Iron Cavalry and defend Yuanzhou in a hurry?" A city appeared in front of me. This is Yuan.

The main city of the state was built in the early days of the founding of Liao Dynasty. The city wall was rammed with earth, with a square plane, five hundred steps long in the north and south, and three feet wide in the east and west. There are horn platforms and horse faces on the outside of the city wall, and there are only two gates in the north and south.

The city can only be considered a small city in the Central Plains, but it is one of the best big cities on the grassland. The fifth girl sighed and thought to herself when she looked at the weak city.

Everyone has already seen that the "five girls" is Zhao Xin. When the Prince outside Lingzhou City was escorting the Prince's peace talks, he accidentally discovered that the general who escorted the Liao envoy was his family who had been separated for many years. But at that time, both sides fought with the black-eyed chicken.

As if both sides were burdened with heavy responsibilities, Zhao Xin suppressed the idea of ​​recognizing each other. When he ran away later, Zhao Xin thought of the underground forces of the prince. As long as he did not leave the Song Dynasty, he would be found no matter where he hid.

, so she made up her mind to 'go home' then!

Zhao Xin went north to find Yuanzhou based on what Xiao Chongde said, and the next thing went smoothly. With the memory left in childhood, he recognized the knife that had never left his body. Only then did she do it

I understand that my father is Xiao Jinxian, the lord of Yuanzhou City, and my mother is Princess Yuyang of the Great Liao Dynasty, named Xiao Chongxin. She was among the fifth sisters, so everyone still called her fifth girl as she used to be.

But the situation at home is not optimistic at all. According to the Liao system, each tribe is generally divided into two parts: guarding households and remaining households. They take turns to guard the border or participate in the conquest. Her elder brother is leading the tribal army to fight with the Jin army in front;

Third, Xiao Chongde was very skilled in martial arts and was selected as the Imperial Courtyard Guardian, and was deacon beside the emperor. He was responsible for the daily life of the emperor's palace and performed relevant official duties. The second child was in poor health since childhood. As Yuanzhou

Situ assisted his father in managing the family home; several sisters were married, and only two younger brothers who were young in their prime were left in the family...
