Crossing the Baigou River is the land of Yanyun.

Since Emperor Shi Jingjiao ceded the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun to the Khitan, this land has been far away from the Central Plains for 200 years.

Now, it's time to take it back.

Wang Xiao's army went all the way north, except for the distant blockade from afar, but it was not intercepted by the main force of the Liao State.

The scene along the way is similar to the south of the Baigou River, all of which are desolate.

The fields were barren and the houses were crumbling.

As for the local people, they didn't see a single one. The people who were still alive saw the army passing by, and ran into the mountains and forests early to hide.

Before nightfall, the army began to camp in groups. The people recruited from all walks of life in Hebei began to get busy.

Set up camps, dig stoves to collect firewood, and fetch water for cooking.

The spacious official road is full of people.

Wang Xiao took a horse and found an open space in the camp to sit down, looking up at the pure starry sky.

Compared with the modern civilized world, where everything is convenient, the most satisfying thing in the ancient world is the unpolluted sky.

It's not easy to see the moon in the modern world, but the starry sky here looks very beautiful.

Zhao Fujin walked over with a dinner plate, "Official, it's time to eat." ”

When a large army goes on a campaign, it is forbidden to take women with them, because superstition says that it will bring disaster.

However, Zhao Fujin and the others were brought by Wang Xiao, and the soldiers around them didn't see what they were doing. No one will blame Wang Xiao.

Wang Xiao smiled, "Together." ”

After a lot of effort, Hu Sanniang also walked over, still holding a thick cloak in her hand.

"It's windy at night, so you can stay warm by wearing this. Beware of wind chills. ”

Wang Xiao twitched the corners of his mouth, and finally held back.

Even though it was night, it was so hot that even at night, it was still a heat wave.

Give me such a thick cloak, you want to see my prickly heat?

Fortunately, Wang Xiao knew that Hu Sanniang, who liked to dance with knives and sticks, didn't understand this, she just wanted to simply express her concern.

According to the record in the scumbag manual, you must not tell the truth at this time, but sincerely thank the woman.

Picking up the dinner plate, Wang Xiao beckoned them back to the tent to eat together.

Although it was hot in the tent, it was better than wearing a thick cloak to cover the heat.

In an abandoned house dozens of miles away, a group of daring soldiers gathered around the bonfire, biting on cooking cakes and drinking water to eat.

"I didn't see Liaogou's brigade all the way, and I don't know where they were hiding. General Yue, shouldn't we go back? ”

The young man known as Yue Shijiang took a big bite on the cooking cake, and then poured half a pot of cold water hard, and then wiped his mouth and said, "Our order is to investigate the movements of Liao Dog." I haven't seen anyone now, how can I get back to my life? ”

Someone on the side complained, "You can't keep running like this, is it possible to run all the way to Yanjing City?" ”

The night wind blew the bonfire, and Yue Shijiang's young but resolute face was reflected in the firelight, flickering and darkening: "We will go as far as Zhuozhou to investigate, and then we will go back." ”

These people are all brave soldiers recruited by Wang Xiao in Zhulu, Hebei.

The so-called daring warriors are cannon fodder, and there is no military training but some brave cannon fodder.

Wang Xiao's army lacked horses, and it was impossible to send all the cavalry out as exploration horses. Therefore, most of the reconnaissance tasks are entrusted to these recruited warriors.

"The last time the Western Army came to fight, the corpses that were killed by Liao Dog were all over the field. Tens of thousands of corpses on the other side of Baigou have not been cleaned up after a few months. This time, the Japanese army came again, and I don't know how many people had to die. ”

"Shut up!"

General Yue Shi scolded, and everyone was shocked.

"What can we say? I don't think about winning, I only think about how much I will die if I lose. In that case, you should also recruit this daring warrior to do anything. Isn't it greedy for a few dollars of settling-in expenses? ”

The people around hurriedly persuaded that they were all fellow villagers and recruited together, so why was this.

General Yue Shi calmed down his emotions and explained in a loud voice, "The military discipline of the Western Army is loose, and in our Great Song Dynasty, they will take advantage of each other, and even draw their swords against each other. The march was also loose, and the noise and shouting continued. How can such a group of soldiers and horses beat the wolf-like Liao people. But this Japanese army is different. ”

After a pause, he seemed to be thinking about how different it was, "This Japanese army went all the way to the prefecture, but he went through the countryside and the county, but he did not commit any crime against the people." Everything is bought and sold in cash. It can be seen that its military discipline is strict. All the way to the march, the queue is in order. The march on the hot day never made a loud complaint. It can be seen that its training is rigorous. This is definitely the strongest army in the world, not comparable to the Western Army. ”

Someone on the side chimed in, "That's right." Although I don't know what to say, the feeling of looking at the Japanese army is completely different from watching the Western army. Maybe they can really defeat Liaogou. ”

"It is worthy of being a high-class forbidden army, maybe it can really slaughter Liao Dog and avenge the people!"

When people of later generations look at the last years of the Northern Song Dynasty, they only remember that the Jin army was brutal and bloodied the world.

But in the more than 100 years before the rise of the Jin State, although the Zhao Song and the Liao State were peaceful on the surface and there was no war, in private, the Liao people kept fighting the grass valley but never stopped.

Hitting the grass valley is simply looting.

Looting property, plundering people, setting fire to houses. The people of Hebei have suffered deeply, and this hatred has spanned a hundred years.

Lao Jin's leading brother killed the Khitans, and as for the Song army going to the territory of Liao to fight the grass valley, it was nonsense.

Niujia Village or something is even more funny, the people of the Jin Kingdom kill people and rob women, but the fault is actually the Han people? I really don't know what's going on in my head.

It is said that Lianjin's annihilation of Liao is a stupid move, but this is all hindsight.

At that time, the Jin State had not yet washed the Central Plains in blood, and no one knew that they were even more vicious than the Liao people.

Now the hatred of the people of Zhao and Song is all imposed on the people of Liao.

After dinner, this team of daring warriors went all the way north to the city of Zhuozhou.

Here, they finally saw the army assembled by the Liao State. The tents were spread across the barracks, countless torches lit up the sky, and tens of thousands of troops were gathered here.

When Wang Xiao received the news, it was already the morning of the next day.

After giving the order to reward the brave warriors, he did not rush out of the camp and set off, but began to gather his forces and prepare for battle.

Before the attack, the Western Army had been in confrontation with the Liao State for several months. It wasn't until the Yan donation was in place that the money was sent to the army.

In the past few months, the Liao people fully mobilized and gathered their forces, which led to a complete victory in the Battle of Baigou.

And Wang Xiao came this time, but the speed was very fast.

It was not until it reached the edge of the national border that the Liao side began to carry out emergency mobilization.

Wang Xiao was not in a hurry to divide his troops and scatter to attack the city. He never cared about the gains and losses of a city or a place in wars, and the annihilation of living forces was his primary pursuit.

After the army is exhausted, the land can be occupied whenever you want.

In the next few days, the two sides watched each other for hundreds of miles, and they were busy concentrating their forces.

The forces of the Liao people were scattered in various states and counties, and it would take time to assemble here in Zhuozhou City.

It is impossible for Wang Xiao's tens of thousands of troops to gather a group of marches, the queue is very long, and it also takes time to gather.

The two sides tacitly confronted each other, but the light soldiers in the middle of the battlefield were fierce day by day.

The Song army's probes, the daring warriors and the Liao's distant barricades all wanted to scout each other, and at the same time shield the battlefield from the other party's reconnaissance. Fighting each other is called a tragedy.

In this fight, those who are really capable will come to the fore.

For example, Yang Zaixing in the Ma military camp has captured more than 100 people in less than half a month.

And the ten generals named Yue Pengju among the daring warriors are not inferior to Yang Zaixing. He doesn't have a horse.

Wang Xiao looked at the familiar name and smiled very happily.

Yelu Dashi and Xiao Gan finally determined that the Western Army was still hundreds of miles away, so they made up their minds to eat this Great Song Dynasty soldier and horse who dared to go deep alone.

The tens of thousands of Liao troops gathered in the city of Zhuozhou began to move south.

Wang Xiao also did not show weakness, and directly led the soldiers and horses to the top.

"That's not the right number." Many years later, Yelu Dashi, who renewed his life for the Liao State and founded the Western Liao, looked at the Song army in the distance, and his voice was surprised, "Didn't you say that it was just a compartment for the forbidden army?" ”

Xiao Gan, who later became the first emperor of the Xi people, also looked suspicious.

According to their understanding of the Great Song Forbidden Army, the forbidden army theoretically only had more than 20,000 people, and the Song army was seriously poorly paid, and the Japanese army was one of the four armies that had always been dissatisfied with the formation, so it would be good to have 10,000 horses.

But the black army on the other side has tens of thousands of people, to say the least.

The two of them glanced at each other, and said in unison, "It's the Western Army!" ”

"These Song people are really treacherous. actually brought the Western Army over from the world. You really deceived us, hateful! ”

"It doesn't matter. Let's kill them all. ”

He had defeated the Western Army in Baigou before, and the corpses he had killed were all over the field. This made Yelu Dashi and Xiao Gan look down on Song Jun from the bottom of their hearts.

In their view, today is nothing more than a repetition of the past.

Wang Xiao rode his horse to change lanes out of the array.

Looking at the Liao army's large array two miles away, Wang Xiao turned his horse's head to face the tens of thousands of troops behind him.

'Whoa! ’

Drawing out his saber, Wang Xiao took a deep breath.

"This is Youzhou. In the Yaoshun era, this was the land of our Han people. Shunzhi twelve states, this is one of them. For thousands of years, countless Han sons and daughters have shed blood for the land under your feet. Today, it's your turn! ”

The long knife in his hand pointed at the Liao army in the distance, "Those Liao people robbed our land, burned our houses, and killed our people." Today let's kill back, take back our land, burn down their houses, and kill all their people! ”

Many generals drew their swords and pointed to the sky, "Kill!" Kill! ”

The momentum of the soldiers was mobilized, and tens of thousands of people shouted in unison, "Kill!" Kill! Kill! ”

Such a strong momentum made the Liao people on the opposite side commotion.

The long knife in Wang Xiao's hand slowly fell, pointing straight ahead.

"Forward, keep killing until you can't walk!"

The rumbling war drums sounded, and the Song army, which was lined up in countless formations of different sizes, marched forward with the beat of the drums.

The momentum of tens of thousands of people condensed made the war horses of the Liao army shake uneasily and snort.

Yelu Dashi's expression was solemn, and there was no more contempt for him before.

"It's not right, it's very wrong. Those Song troops, the momentum is completely different. ”

Xiao Gan looked at the Song Jun walking over like a moving mountain of metal on the opposite side, gritted his teeth and drew his knife, and the void slashed.

"I can't control so much now, let's fight first!"
