According to historical records, Chong Ge led the Yan army to attack Western Xia, and when the troops arrived at Suojia, the road was closed due to heavy snowfall, and the food supply did not keep up in time. The soldiers were cold and hungry, and suddenly heard rumors that the Xia army had blocked their back roads, cut off their food routes, and was about to attack them. Liu Guiren, the head of the Zuo Bandian, was frightened, and he fled first and led his subordinates to flee south. Due to the heavy snowfall, the fleeing soldiers had no provisions, and many people died along the way. When the Yan army set out to fight, it led 100,000 troops, but in the end, there were only more than 30,000 people left. Chong Ge was defeated without a fight, and was no longer able to attack the Xia army, so he had to be stationed in Futu City and wait for the next order from the imperial court. As a result, the battle of the Yanyan army led by Chong Ge has actually ended in failure.

So, here's the problem.

Where did the rumor that Xia Jun cut off the food route of the Yan army come from? Why was Liu Guiren convinced and even the first to flee? The answer to the question has long been annihilated in the thick of history, and what Murong Fu has to do now is to uncover the truth of this history.

For this reason, Murong Fu went to find a seed master, sent Deng Baichuan to the front army to realize his dream of fighting on the battlefield, and placed Gongye Qian in the rear army so that he could secretly spy on Liu Guiren.

Seed Master Dao and Murong Fu have known each other for a long time, and they don't believe what their uncle said that Murong Fu was afraid of the battlefield and was unwilling to participate in the war, so when he saw Murong Fu, he asked him what he thought.

Murong Fu was silent for a while, and said sullenly: "What should be said, I have already said it in the main account." "It's just that now that the Yan Yan army has won successive battles, no one wants to believe him.

Naturally, the seed master Dao didn't believe him, and seeing that Murong Fu was worried, he couldn't help but persuade him. "Brother Murong Xian, now our morale is booming and you are rejuvenating in the wounded barracks, but it is the time for the descendants of the battlefield to make meritorious contributions. To tell you the truth, the merit of Xiazhou is already on the way, and the scriptures are still asking for credit for you. ”

As soon as Murong Fu saw the appearance of the cultivator's earnestness, he knew that he didn't need to say anything else, so he simply turned his head and asked Qiao Feng. "Brother Qiao thinks so too?"

Qiao Feng thought for a moment before slowly replying: "This northern land is as cold as a day, if the wind and snow rise again, the battle of attack will be extremely difficult. "Winter in the north is difficult, and when the grass and trees are withering, there are only two ways for summer people to survive the winter. First, threshing grass; Second, slaughter cattle and sheep and tighten their belts to survive the winter. Now that the Song army is in the city, although the Xia people can't threw grass, they are at least waiting for work. On the other hand, the soldiers of the Song army were more unaccustomed to this cold weather than the Xia people, and if they caught up with the heavy snowstorm, the taste of this iron armor was really unforgettable.

Qiao Feng mentioned the weather, and the brows of the Planter Dao also wrinkled. Since the Yan army sent troops to fight in August, although only a few light rains and snow have not hindered the overall situation, the change in the weather cannot be changed by manpower, in case of ...... Thinking of this, the planter Dao Dengshi was blessed to his heart, and suddenly realized: "No wonder my uncle is in a hurry to use soldiers, it turns out that there is also this climate!" "As long as we can take Hengshan before the weather deteriorates, the strategic goal of this summer harvest will be successfully completed. At that time, even if it snowed heavily, although the Song army could not continue to advance, the Xia army would definitely not be able to kill it. Stay up until next year's spring flowers, and if you continue to fight, it will hurt the Xia people's national strength when they are farming, and it will not be damaged in the Great Song Dynasty.

"It's just that our army is advancing too fast, and logistics supplies may keep up?" Qiao Feng glanced at Murong Fu and added another sentence.

As soon as the seed master heard this, he knew that this was Murong Fu's cliché in front of the planter, and immediately put his hand on Murong Fu's shoulder and said with a smile: "The army is very strict in terms of economic strategy, and this logistics supply is absolutely safe. ”

As soon as the seed master said this, Qiao Feng had nothing to say. He didn't know that this time it was a big gamble, but he was stubborn, and he decided that he had to gamble, and the only thing he could do was to do his best to help him win the game.

Murong Fu only sighed slightly, he had already learned the final result of this gamble in the history books. Since he was incapable of changing his mind, the only thing he could do was to save this useful body for Song Jun to get some more money back.

On November 7, he raised 80,000 soldiers to attack Lingzhou and defeated the Xia people in Heishui. Twelve, the seed descended to the Henghe leveling households, broke the stone castle city, and won a lot of people. Fourteenth, the class teacher returned to Xiazhou. Seventeen, the Yan army, which had been resting for a while, sent troops again, this time, their target was Yanzhou.

On the third day of the army's march, the whole army passed through Suojiaping. It was a gloomy day, and the north wind was howling, and after noon, snowflakes were falling in the sky. Seeing that the roads were muddy and unable to walk, he ordered the whole army to be stationed and wait for the snow to stop before setting out.

Murong Fu, who went out with the army, changed the medicine for the lightly wounded in the camp tent for an afternoon, and only freed his hands to eat after the end of the day. It's just that what's going on with this bowl of gruel in my hand where you can faintly see people's faces? Although I can't take care of eating when I'm busy, it doesn't mean that I can't skip eating! Murong Fu was slightly stunned with his rice bowl, he still remembered that there was still thick porridge yesterday, and today it has become gruel, could it be that this grain and grass can no longer be supplied?

Murong Fu was pondering to himself, and the door of the tent curtain was suddenly opened vigorously. He subconsciously looked up, and it was Qiao Feng, who was wrapped in wind and snow, who broke in. Seeing Murong Fu holding the bowl in a daze, he snatched it without saying a word, and poured it into his stomach in just one breath. "I haven't drunk water in a few hours!" Putting down his rice bowl, Qiao Feng sighed with satisfaction. After speaking, he smacked his lips and said suspiciously, "Why do you still have rice grains in this water?" ”

Murong Fu looked at Qiao Feng, opened his mouth, suddenly sighed, and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"The heavy snow has crushed several camp tents, and many soldiers have frostbite." Speaking of business, Qiao Feng's expression also became solemn.

Murong Fu couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, and said honestly: "I have the medicine to treat frostbite, but the medicine will treat the symptoms after all." ”

Qiao Feng also knew that what Murong Fu said was reasonable, if the winter clothes were insufficient, what was the use of only taking medicine?

"Can the grain and grass keep up?" Without waiting for Qiao Feng to answer, Murong Fu asked again.

"Keep up." Qiao Feng nodded, "It's just that I see that this heavy snow can't stop for a while, if the heavy snow closes the road, the grain and grass can't be transported......"

It turned out that the food and grass of the forbidden army could be supplied for the time being. Murong Fu secretly said to himself, but the Xiang army has already broken off, and he is afraid that if it drags on any longer, he is afraid that it will ......

Murong Fu was in a trance, only to see the door curtain raised, and a gust of wind and snow rushed in. "Son, there is really something wrong with Liu Guiren...... Gongye Qian walked in and shouted, and when he saw Qiao Feng was also there, he immediately stopped and bowed to Qiao Feng. Met Lieutenant Joe. ”

Qiao Feng got up and returned the salute, and was about to speak, when Murong Fu had already spoken: "Second brother Gongye, Brother Qiao is not an outsider, just say anything if you find out." ”

Gongye Qian glanced at Murong Fu, turned his head to look at Qiao Feng, and finally bowed his head and said yes. "The subordinates were ordered to keep an eye on Liu Guiren in the past few days, and found that he had a close relationship with a border businessman. The subordinates originally thought that Liu Guiren was in charge of the army's money and food, and it was common for him to do some small business privately. It's just that the subordinates looked frightened when they saw Liu Guiren every time they saw the businessman there, so they became suspicious. His subordinates inquired in many ways, and Liu Guiren actually secretly hid a few good horses for his use in the rear army, and others could not call them without his warrant, didn't he want to escape? And just now, the merchant came again. But this time, he actually changed into the military uniform of our Great Song Dynasty, Liu Guiren took such pains to hide it for him, there must be something unspeakable! ”

Murong Fu and Qiao Feng listened, glanced at each other, and at the same time got up and said, "Go and see!" ”

This Liu Guiren official is straight to the left pandian, and he is also a separate camp in the rear army. By this time, it was getting late and the wind and snow were heavy, and there was hardly anyone in the camp except for the soldiers who patrolled back and forth. Murong Fu and the other three were each armed with martial arts, and someone inevitably bumped into it, so they simply flew onto the top of the tent, and used the dagger they carried with them to cut a gap on the top of the tent and peeked in.

In the tent, Liu Guiren had already retreated, and only he stood with a pawn wearing a Great Song military uniform. I saw that although the little pawn had a dark complexion, he had a clear outline, a deep nose, and pale yellow eyes. Seeing that this person was dignified, Qiao Feng subconsciously turned his head to look at Murong Fu who was squatting beside him, and said to himself: It is no wonder that Brother Murong Xian's appearance is misunderstood as a foreign race. Fortunately, Murong Xian's younger brother is handsome, and he is very different from this party item.

Murong Fu, who was secretly praised by Qiao Feng as "talented and handsome", did not have Qiao Feng's tortuous thoughts, and was eavesdropping on the conversation between the two people in the camp tent with a serious face at this time.

"I agreed to come to trade yesterday, why didn't you come to trade?" The first to speak out was Liu Guiren, who was only a year old and had been in charge of the rear army alone. This time, he has won many battles, and he will definitely be rewarded for his meritorious deeds in the future. is the so-called official fortune prosperity and spring breeze pride, because the military camp has always been high on weekdays, when has Murong Fu seen him so panicked now.

The pawn bowed down and said with a smile: "General Liu, the villain is not tight, this deal is ......."

"Fart!" Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, Liu Guiren was already angry and took the case. "Pang Chengqing, you and I have known each other for many years, can you coax others to coax me with this kind of talk?"

As soon as Liu Guiren said this, the pawn named Pang Chengqing was silent.

"Let me ask you, has Xia Jun already called?" Liu Guiren couldn't wait for the pawn to speak, so he asked in a panic. "Two days ago, there were rumors that the Xia army sent troops to intercept our army's grain and grass, and now I heard that Wang Zhongzheng has run out of food, and our army has encountered heavy snow, and the remaining grain and grass cannot support two days...... Is it that Xia Jun has already called? Isn't it? ”

"General Liu, I'm afraid you're asking the wrong person, right? After all, the villain is a Xia person, how can there be a reason to betray his own people? That Pang Chengqing said with a straight face.

Liu Guiren's face turned hideous when he heard this, and he gritted his teeth and said in a dark voice: "You even dare to make Xia Jun's dead money, what loyalty do you mention to me?" surnamed Pang, if you don't tell the truth today, I will let your head fall to the ground! ”

Pang Chengqing was bluffed and took two steps back, quickly nodded honestly, and said in a low voice: "General Liu, you and I have known each other, and the villain doesn't want the general to die in vain." Liang Dashuai has indeed cut off the grain road of the Yan army, and there is no need to count on this grain and grass general. Liang Dashuai is a hero, and after the snow stops, he will have to fight to the death with your family. Now the Yan army is cold and hungry, and they are only afraid of this battle......" Speaking of this, he paused meaningfully. "Although the villain loves money, this wealth and glory can only be enjoyed if he has a life, and he asked General Liu to let the villain go."

When Liu Guiren got the definite news, he was like a bolt from the blue, only to see him sit in the chair with a pale face, and waved his hand weakly to the pawn. As if he had been pardoned, the pawn hurriedly bowed his head and withdrew from the tent.

"Brother Qiao, you stay to monitor Liu Guiren, and I'll catch that spy!" Liu Guiren was frightened, but Murong Fu knew that the snow was so heavy today, so Pang Chengqing could come and go freely, where would it be an ordinary border businessman?

Qiao Feng nodded, held his wrist and instructed, "Be careful!" ”

Murong Fu nodded and added. "Keep an eye on Liu Guiren, don't let him escape!" People have a herd mentality, and the soldiers are already cold and hungry, and if they see the generals above flee first, the morale of the army will be dispersed.

"Don't worry!" Qiao Feng obviously understood this truth.

Qiao Feng has always acted prudently, with his words, Murong Fu really has nothing to worry about, so he turned his head and jumped down the camp tent to chase after the spy. Gong Yeqian also understood, but he only raised his eyebrows quietly and left with Murong Fu silently.
