October 23 of the third year of Tianxi (AD 1021), Zhao Zhen, the pioneer general of Youzhou City, the king of Shouchun County, asked Cao Wei, the commander of the city, to ask for his life, and wanted to enter the hinterland of the Liao army in person, to explore the military situation, the two armies were opposed, in addition to the strength, grain and grass were also an important factor, Zhao Zhen meant to touch the rear of the Liao people to explore Yelu Longxu's family, the current stalemate between the two sides, no one could help anyone, the eyes of the Liao people stared at the grain road of the Song army, and the Song army was also very worried about the family background of the Liao people.

It's just that the battle between the two sides is like this, and each other is very close to their own grain roads and warehouses, and the Liao and Song sides continue to send troops to attack each other's grain and grass without success (Cao Wei didn't know at this time, not long after, the Liao people had a small army to break through the Song army's interception and enter the hinterland, if it wasn't for the transport team to meet Xiao Nan, the consequences would be unimaginable, the other party robbed this batch of grain and grass, and would also try to destroy the grain road. ）

Zhao Zhen suddenly made this request, Cao Wei naturally disagreed, this is a very dangerous job, the people sent out can be described as ten not one, Zhao Zhen is the prince, where does Cao Wei dare to let him take such a risk, after Zhao Zhen's hard lobbying, he weighed again and again, and finally agreed to Zhao Zhen's request.

Without it, Zhao Zhen's request is very simple, he does not bring a large-scale team to go, just he and Jiang Jingxuan take three more Jingwei, and sneak over, such a small team, from Taihang Mountain, it is difficult to attract the attention of the Liao, plus there are brave and crowned three armies of the cavalry Jiang Jingxuan escorted on the side, as long as they do not make a big move, do not burn the other party's granary, sneak in, and then come back quietly, the danger is not very great.

Jiang Jingxuan first entered the military camp as Zhao Zhen's personal guard, but he himself was born in martial arts, and his kung fu was even more outstanding, and there was almost no opponent in the three armies. (General Tuowen, who was beheaded by Xiao Nan that year, is known as the first brave general in the Liao army, and in addition to him, the Liao people also have three warriors who are famous for their martial arts.) ）

In this battle, Jiang Jingxuan was famous for the three armies, and he himself was named the Xiao cavalry general of the pioneer battalion, and because he himself served under Zhao Zhen's account, after being named the Xiao cavalry general, he still obeyed Zhao Zhen's orders, about Zhao Zhen, when he was first assigned to Cao Wei, Cao Wei was quite unimpressed, thinking that it was a prince who was more favored by the emperor and wanted to follow him to rub some military achievements.

How do you know that after the real arrival on the battlefield, the performance of the king of Shouchun County can be described as amazing, the vanguard of the army is second only to Pan Weixi in the same period of soldiers, (Pan Weixi is now the deputy marshal of the Yanyun battlefield) has a very high reputation among the generals of the younger generation, but the performance of the two partial generals under his command Zhao Zhen and Li Sanlang is not inferior to him at all.

Li Sanlang is just that, he was a famous general, he was very famous in Beijing when he was a teenager, and he is now twenty or five, this time he came to the Yanyun battlefield, the performance was amazing, everyone was not surprised, but this Shouchun County King was sixteen years old, and he was only found from the people at the age of twelve, and he didn't know where to learn it, since he entered Yanyun, he led the army to fight eight encounters, all of which were victorious, compared to Li Sanlang, he not only surpassed people, but also the ability to kill the enemy in battle was not inferior to the major generals in the army.

In the past six months since joining Yanyun, Zhao Zhen, the king of the county, has won the respect and recognition of all Yanyun soldiers with his practical ability and actions! In other words, this Yelu Longxu is not a mediocre material, when the Youyun Rebellion, the Empress Dowager Xiao had just died, he was in power at the beginning, and the deterrence was insufficient, so he forcibly endured the heart of the war with the Song Dynasty, and calmed down to fight the soldiers.

This mill is eight years, eight years later, Yelu Longxu not only completely controlled the military and political affairs of the Great Liao, but also created an invincible iron army, the entire prairie, where he pointed to the front, no tribe dared not bow their heads, under such a might, he gathered 500,000 troops to launch a comprehensive attack on the Great Song Dynasty, the original abacus was to take Yanyun Bazhou first, and then the troops pointed to the Central Plains, even if they could not enter, they would force the Song court to bow their heads to Liao, and seek the greatest interests for the Liao State.

How do you know that Pan Weixi's bones are so difficult to gnaw, except for the first three days, after taking Sanzhou, Pan Weixi actually used about 100,000 troops in his hands to withstand the half-month onslaught of his 500,000 army, although after the arrival of the court's reinforcements, the 100,000 army was less than 30,000, but they held the city after all.

After Cao Wei arrived, he personally commanded two battle domains, through these two battle domains, he clearly knew that the Liao people did not capture Yanyun Bazhou in time, not because they were not strong, but because Pan Weixi was really powerful, if he was changed to Pan Weixi's position, let him block the Liao people's 500,000 army for half a month with 100,000 troops, how could he not do it.

Even if the strength of each other is about the same now, if it weren't for Pan Weixi, Zhe Congruan, Li Sanlang, Zhao Zhen, Jiang Jingxuan, these outstanding generals in Wen Taowu, and he alone, he would not be able to stop the 500,000 army of the Liao people, Cao Wei is slightly inferior to Yang Yanzhao in terms of military strategy, but he is broad-minded and not jealous of meritocracy.

Without further ado, let's get back to business, after Zhao Zhen got the general order to return to the camp, he came to Jiang Jingxuan to discuss, the two conspired together, and finally selected three iron guards to accompany them, and the three people selected by them were all top-notch masters in the army, a group of five people, disguised and disguised, sneaked from Taihang Mountain to the Liao border, and it took three days to sneak into Shuozhou.

Shuozhou is the back garden of the Liao people in Beijing, the Liao people set the capital in Yunzhou, called the capital of Shangjing, Shuozhou to Shangjing is only more than 100 miles away, Zhao Zhen and Jiang Jingxuan entered Shuozhou, dressed as businessmen, as for the three iron guards, the military atmosphere on the body is too strong, after sneaking into the city, Zhao Zhen did not let them show up at all, he himself and Jiang Jingxuan turned into the appearance of a businessman, mixed into a restaurant called "Hongyunju".

Although the Liao and Song Dynasty are at war, there are still some merchants who take the risk of exchanging goods with the Liao people and conducting border trade, Jiang Jingxuan has been darts for many years, and has not taken over the darts of the big merchants who do business with the Liao people one by one, and he knows a lot about the habits of these merchants, and now he pretends to be these people, there is basically no flaw, although Zhao Zhen has no experience in this area, but he is very smart, drawing inferences from one another, and pretending to be Jiang Jingxuan's little servant, which is not eye-catching.

There were not many guests at this time, and there were only five or six tables in the lobby with more than 20 tables at this time, Jiang Jingxuan and Zhao Zhen found an inconspicuous position and sat down, and soon after the two sat down, they heard a few merchants complaining not far away: "Hey, I don't know when this battle will be fought, if it continues like this, we businessmen will not survive." ”
