Shi Jiwei originally wanted to join up with Wuchuan Military Town, join forces and then attack the Golden Horde, and recapture Huaishuo in one fell swoop, but he never thought that when he came to this Wuchuan Military Town, all he saw was an empty city, and there were not many soldiers left.

Now the plan to join forces in one place has failed, only one Heavenly Wolf Battalion has been added to Wuchuan, and the Wei army has been in the absence of Captain Su, and he has not been very active in cooperating with the arrangement of troops. After all, it was not his own soldiers, Shi Jiwei sighed secretly.

The Sky Wolf Battalion is not its own, and it is understandable that it cannot be commanded easily, but the Divine Machine Battalion has not returned for a long time in the name of the queen of the palace, which makes Shi Jiwei quite angry. He didn't believe that Pan Zihan would fight to the death, and the entire Shenji Battalion had been annihilated by the Golden Horde. Defeat or victory, there should be a message at this point.

There is indeed news coming.

The scout sent by Shi Jiwei to inquire about the news had just returned to the city.

The scout returned, he chased all the way to Shanghai Village, and found neither the Shenji Battalion nor the Golden Horde, looking at the traces on the road, judging that there was a large army heading north.

Hearing this, Shi Jiwei couldn't help but ask himself, "The Golden Horde is not chasing him, but choosing to go north, what is his intention?" He pondered for a while, and remembered the one who went to Zhongnan Mountain, could it be that the goal of the Golden Horde was Zhongnan Mountain, capturing Princess Subai as a hostage and coercing the emperor.

He wasn't sure that the Golden Horde army was only for one person, but what he could be sure of was that Zhao Luojia's identity had been exposed when he had Yixuan. Thinking of Youyixuan, Shi Jiwei felt a dark pain in his heart.

At that time, he did not know what the Golden Horde was up to, so he followed. I never thought that I would run into Pan Xiaocheng halfway. The brothers of the entire Shenji Battalion suffered heavy casualties, and Pan Xiaocheng asked me to come back as soon as possible and tell the adults that the Golden Horde was not going north to attack Zhongnan Mountain, but to attack Bingzhou City. ”

"The Shenji Battalion has suffered heavy casualties, and the Golden Horde is going to attack and merge the state?" Shi Jiwei's face sank, and his heart chuckled. The Golden Horde army went north, neither to pursue itself, nor to attack Zhongnan Mountain, but to make a false shot, and then turn around and attack Bingzhou. "On the way, did you find out any news about the other armies in Wuchuan Military Town?"

"On the way back and forth, I did not hear any news about this. ”

"Let's go down. Shi Jiwei fell into deep thought, the news brought back by the scout was not good news. From the very beginning, the Golden Horde was in a maze formation, making it impossible to see their marching routes, and the defenses of the state were somewhat lax due to the northward direction of the Golden Horde.

Shi Jiwei immediately took the pen and ink, and immediately reported the general's situation, and the state could not be lost, not only the army of Huaishuo and Wuchuan military towns, but also the imperial court issued an order to mobilize the troops of the two major jiedu envoys of Beiting and Anxi, and surrounded the Golden Horde.

The military intelligence report mainly talks about two points, one is to report that due to internal response, Huaishuo was lost, he led his troops to join Wuchuan, but Su Sheng's battalions were not in the city, and the other is that after the Golden Horde army went north with a shot, it intended to attack the city of Bingzhou.

Seeing that the military newspaper was sent to Xianjing City at an expedited speed of 800 miles, Shi Jiwei repaired the letter to his family and sent it to Bingzhou desperately. After the military reports and letters were sent, he began to purge his army, no longer trapped in the city of Jukun Pass, and no longer waited for Su Sheng's battalions to return to the camp, he was ready to lead his troops to pursue the Golden Horde army. Others can wait, he can't wait, and the city is in the state, but the foundation of the Shi family is located, once the city is broken, the entire Shi family will also be buried.

Shi Jiwei led his Huaishuo army, and Wei Zongming was forced by the situation to lead his troops to follow, after all, since there are enemy soldiers in front and want to attack the hinterland of Daxian, if the troops do not move, no matter what reason there is at that time, they will definitely be severely punished.

The soldiers led by Shi Jiwei found the Shenji Battalion retreating here after coming to Shanghai Village. However, after two days, the strongest battalion in Huaishuo, which was still fully staffed before, is now gone, and the rest are either exhausted or wounded by knives and arrows. Pan Zihan, who led the troops, was leaning over to check the map to further judge the movements of the Golden Horde.

"Pan Xiaocheng, how is the military situation?" Shi Jiwei has already put away all his thoughts in the past, and only pays attention to the current military situation.

"Captain Shi, I led the Shenji Battalion to beware of the pursuit of the Golden Horde behind the outer hall of Shanghai Village, but I never thought that the Golden Horde would go north. In order to find out the true intentions of the Golden Horde, I led my troops to follow. At first, the Golden Horde was only sending troops to block it slightly, but when I found that the Golden Horde was not continuing north, but east, I had a premonition that something was wrong, and I narrowed the distance of their follow. I never thought that this time the Golden Horde would fight back with all their might, and our Shenji Battalion fought bravely, but after all, they were outnumbered and had to retreat. Pan Zihan pointed to the various locations on the map, and told the route and battle of the Golden Horde.

"The Golden Horde no longer went north, but to the east, and further east was Luoshui, and along Luoshui to the south, it was to merge the state, presumably this was their true intention. Following the route of the Golden Horde on the map, Shi Jiwei once again affirmed his judgment.

and the state must not be lost.

At this time, although the state was not lost, it was a little chaotic.

Shi Longkai has been in charge of Luoxi for many years, and under his rule, the government is harmonious, and all industries are prosperous, and it seems to be the most important city in the northwest corner of Daxian. And now, because of the Golden Horde, most of the population of the entire Huaishuo City continues to pour into the city, and the displaced people naturally need to be channeled and arranged, otherwise they will cause trouble. Fortunately, those who fled to Bingzhou in Huaishuo City did not flee in a hurry, but also brought some family wealth, and the government only needed appropriate relief, and controlled the merchants in the city to stabilize prices, and after the Huaishuo crisis was resolved, the displaced people returned to their homeland, then it was successfully resolved.

After appeasing the displaced people, Shi Longkai has been keeping an eye on the battle situation in Huaishuo.

If Bingzhou is the foundation of the Shi family, then Huaishuo is the hope of the Shi family. Although Shi Jili manages the family business in an orderly manner, if there are no troops in hand, the help of the prince and the queen will be much smaller.

Huaishuo can't be broken, but if it does, how to deal with it? Shi Longkai thought in his heart. The Golden Horde made an unusual offense this time, and sent troops in the spring instead, but in the final analysis, it was nothing more than robbing property, and in this land of Luoxi, the primary goal was to merge with the state.

There must be no civil strife among the displaced people, and there must be strong troops stationed in the state. Shi Long took a look at the strength of the city and was not optimistic. Fortunately, he was not the only one with the Shi family's foresight, and Shi Jili began to transport supplies from Xianjing to Bingzhou when the war was together. In addition to the imperial court garrison, the Shi family also needed to recruit village warriors, set up volunteers, and participate in the defense of the city. And all this requires supplies and possessions.

There must be brave men under the so-called heavy reward, not to mention that when the survival of the city is so involved, a large number of original city residents and displaced people have joined in, and Shi Longkai began to dispatch the defenders and generals in the city to conduct urgent drills.

After making these arrangements, Shi Long was happy to settle down a little, and even if Bingzhou was really besieged, he would be able to hold on for a little longer and buy time for the imperial court's reinforcements.

Some people are fighting for time, some people are delaying time, Duanmu Xu looked at the Taoist priest who came not far away, and couldn't help frowning.
