A pigeon with golden feathers flew south in the middle of winter, the corners of its mouth were a little golden, look how agile it flies! The pigeon's wings are particularly powerful, and when it flies over people's heads, it resembles a gust of wind.

Its feathers are blue with purple in them, purple and shiny, shining brightly; It seems to have something wrapped around its feet, and it can't see clearly from a distance.

This pigeon has been flying in the air for a long time, and it has flown to a Liao town on the border of Song Liao, and at this time it seems to be a little tired from flying, sleepy and tired.

It hovered in the sky for a moment, then swooped down from the sky and landed in front of a grain and oil store. After it landed, it looked left and right, and it was very chic. A pair of wings were tucked tightly at the sides, and the bright red paws walked gently, and the head seemed to be beating back and forth.

There were a lot of corn grains scattered on the ground, and it looked around while "cooing" until it was sure that it was really safe nearby, and then began to lower its head to eat, but it was very vigilant, and it had to look up from time to time.

When it had eaten its fill, it flew to the river to drink some water, and then continued its flight....

On the border line of the Liao Song Dynasty, fifty miles to the north, there was a large camp of the Liao army.

A wooden wall was erected around the barracks, surrounded by two rows of tree trunks, the long trunks in a tight row on the outside as the outer wall, and the short trunks in a row of trees on the inside as the inner wall.

There was a wooden plank between the two rows of tree trunks, which was divided into two layers, and the part of the long trunk became a parapet, and at this time, several groups of soldiers patrolled the upper layer of the plank, and the lower layer stored the weapon, which could also be used for the soldiers to rest.

There is a camp tent in it, and the camp tent is facing each other, and there are drainage ditches around the camp tent and the camp area.

There are also baggage camps and stables, all of which are heavily guarded.

Here is the Wuding Army's big tent of the Shengzhou Festival, the main general is Zhang Quanxing, the commander of the Wuding Army, and the deputy general is Liu Zhengyi, the deputy commander of the Ma Army.

At present, although there has been no war in the Song and Liao for a long time, the border generals of the Liao State still go to the territory of the Great Song Dynasty from time to time and secretly to fight the grass valley, of course, they are dressed as horse bandits, split into small teams, and act in parts, and the establishment of the team is "one regular army, three horses, one person each who fights the grass valley and guards the camp."

Fighting, fighting grass valleys, and guarding camps, everyone has their own responsibilities to ensure that they are not chaotic.

Didn't I see a large group of people and horses coming, only to hear the noise of cars and horses, and the voices of people were boiling, but they advanced and retreated in an orderly manner.

It is already ten miles away from the border of the Great Song Dynasty, and forty miles away from the camp of the Wuding Army.

At the head of the team was a team dressed as horse bandits, all of whom carried bows and arrows on their backs, and long knives at their waists, and were majestic.

The scene in the back is: "The horses are full of clothes and utensils, and there are seven or eight hundred captives led, most of them are young women, and some young men, all dressed in Song costumes, all crying and crying", it is obvious that they were brought back from the territory of the Song Dynasty.

This is a young man, I saw that his posture was as tall as a pine, his momentum was as strong as the sun, his sword eyebrows were like paint, a pair of cold eyes, his chest was broad, and he was a fierce general at a glance.

He was leading his troops forward, and then he heard a burst of geese crying from the sky above him, and when he looked up, he saw a line of geese flying overhead, one in a "one" shape, the other in a "human" shape, and hurriedly flying south.

He quickly drew three arrows from the quiver on his horse, and then opened his bow like a full moon, and shot it at the flock of geese in the air;

Immediately I heard a terrible scream, and I saw three geese that were shot down from the sky, and the geese in the sky suddenly scattered in formation, scattered and fled, but saw that there were still three geese wandering in the sky, refusing to leave.

When the young man saw this, he wanted to continue shooting, but he saw that the three geese flew lower and lower, and finally landed, and each of them circled around the dead geese, pecking at it and making a mournful sound.

Many of the horsemen gathered around to watch, and they were all amazed....

The pigeon, which was flying south, happened to fly over the young man's head, and he saw that the pigeon was vigorous and powerful, and immediately recognized it as a carrier pigeon, and he immediately shot at it, and the pigeon was more clever, as if aware of the danger, and hurriedly avoided it, and finally could dodge, but the arrow shot down a handful of its feathers, and a trace of blood appeared on its body.

Seeing this, he hurriedly drew his arrow and opened his bow to shoot again, and saw that the pigeon had already flown away, out of the range of the arrow.

At this time, I suddenly heard the rumbling sound of horses' hooves coming from the south, and saw a group of Great Song cavalry chasing after me, led by a young general, who was wearing a phoenix-winged helmet, wearing black hammer armor, and wearing dark cloud soap shoes.

Seeing this young general galloping with a battalion of cavalry, this Liao man looked at this group of Song cavalry with some curiosity, but he didn't expect the Song army to chase after him.

I saw that this group of Great Song cavalry did not wear bows and arrows, but everyone carried a long black object, about three feet long, with a brown-red wooden support, a long iron pipe in front of it, and an elongated dagger fixed underneath.

There was a square hardwood shield on the horse's back, with a tiger face painted on it, and a layer of armor on the horse's body, and an iron helmet on the horse's head, leaving only two eyes exposed.

This young Liao man is Liu Yuanbiao, the second son of Liu Zhengyi, the commander of the Ma army in Fengshengzhou, 26 years old, this person is strong in martial arts, and has been following his father Liu Zhengyi to fight in the east and west, not only attacking the Murwei tribes, but also crusading against the Jurchens and Goryeo, so he has experienced more than ten large and small wars, never defeated, and has also been received and rewarded by the Liao Shengzong.

Liu Yuanbiao is a Youyun Han, but since the time of Liao Shengzong, the Liao State has really regarded the Han people as a part of itself, and everyone has become a family, so he has long regarded himself as a Khitan and regarded the Great Liao as orthodox.

He especially sneered at the military strength of the Song army, and every time he went to the territory of the Great Song Dynasty to fight the grass valley, he would see the Song army fearing like a tiger, allowing the people of the Great Song Dynasty to be plundered and ravaged; In his eyes, the Song people are two-legged sheep that can be killed and taken.

This time, he led a team of cavalry, about 700 people, to fight the grass valley, but since the beginning of the Liao Shengzong, the imperial court has not allowed the grass valley to be beaten.

They could only do it secretly, dressed up as horse bandits, and broke into pieces, but when they arrived in the Song Realm, they exposed their faces as hungry wolves, and wantonly burned, killed and plundered.

Chong Shiheng had been transferred to the Song-Liao border as the Hebei Road defense envoy, in charge of the military affairs of the Song-Liao border, and he also brought four battalions (2,000 men) of musketeers, of which his nephew Chong Huichang was the commander of one of the battalions.

It is the young general chasing the horse bandits in the picture, he has just passed the year of the crown, on this day he led the army to patrol the border, and he saw a sudden thick smoke rolling ten miles away, and the fire was full of sky, and he hurriedly led the troops to check.

In a short time, they arrived at the place where the incident had occurred, where five villages were scattered, and from which the smoke of the fire was emitted.

At this time, Chong Huichang's eyes were cracked, and the scene he saw was like a hell on earth, here was already a ruined wall, the fire was soaring, and the scene was a mess.

The streets of the village are lined with villagers who died tragically on the spot, and blood is flowing all over the ground; There are also many village women and girls who are not clothed and have been raped and ravaged, many women have been humiliated and hanged themselves, and the women who are surviving are also crazy.

A thought flashed through his mind, that is, Liao Yu had come to fight the grass valley.

He immediately led the army to chase after him, and because of the scattered actions of the Liao army, there were many lone squads, and they were immediately slaughtered by the pursuing Song army.

Chong Huichang had already led troops to the border at this time, and when he climbed high and looked into the distance, he saw a long line in the distance, and he knew that this must be the escorted Song team.

Without thinking, he immediately led his army across the border line and chased after this group of people, hoping to rescue these captive Song people.

At this time, Liu Yuanbiao looked at the Song army in this battalion with contempt, like looking at "a group of lambs to the slaughter".

He took out a short whistle from his bosom, put it in his mouth, and blew it, and suddenly the sound of horses' hooves rumbled in all directions, and the earth shook when he reached it.

After a while, I saw the cavalry of the Liao army coming over from all sides, and Chong Huichang looked indifferent and disappreciative.

He saw that the Liao cavalry surrounding him was only a little more than his own, and his battalion of cavalry faced four times the size of the Western Xia cavalry in the northwest, and they were easily routed.

But he also cheered up, he followed his uncle Chong Shiheng's side since he was a child, and he also got the true biography of Chong Shiheng.

He knows that the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and he must not underestimate any opponent, even if he is weak, he must show the strength of "lion fighting rabbit", go all out, and have won a complete victory.

At this time, Chong Huichang also took out a battle flag from his arms, and then fanned it a few times regularly, and saw a cavalryman standing out of the team, holding a military horn in his hand, and then blew it "toot".

At this time, the cavalry of the Song army began to work in groups of three, seize the advantageous combat terrain, set up a position, and then hold muskets and make a shooting shape.

At this time, Liu Yuanbiao felt that his scalp was numb, as if he was being targeted by a poisonous snake, his hair stood on end, and his back scalp was only tight, and he felt creepy.

He subconsciously waved the reins, and took a few steps back from the horse, when the horse under the crotch snorted, let out a few neighs, and then plowed the ground with his front legs from time to time, looking frightened, as if he felt danger.

His face suddenly became hot, and then he became angry, he felt that his performance just now was a bit embarrassing, and he immediately wanted to win back a city.
