When Zhang Mei rushed to the city of Ningzhou with a large group of cavalry, he happened to see that the king of Qi galloped under the city of Ningzhou, bent his bow and arrows, and galloped back, and the city was full of exclamations, but it was the flag of the tiger on the city tower that was embroidered with Khitan characters in the wind, and suddenly fell slowly, obviously by the king of Qi, and the flag rope was broken with an arrow.

Zhang Meiying's eyes, even as if he saw the old opponent Wang Hong at the head of the city, touched his helmet, obviously this Wang Hong was also frightened into a cold sweat, this arrow, if it was for him, I am afraid that he would have died at this time.

His Royal Highness King Qi's bow and arrow, shooting, this, is really a bit far, beyond people's psychological cognition......

Ningzhou City is built according to the canal, there is no moat at the south gate, at this time a few hundred steps outside the south gate, the pro-army heavy cavalry in front of the palace of King Qi stands in formation, but a hundred heavy cavalry, but it seems that they are not afraid of the tide of soldiers in Ningzhou City at any time.

In front of this column of heavy cavalry, dozens of bloody human heads were piled on the ground, their hair tied together in knots.

Hu Yanzan, the commander of the battalion in front of the palace, was shouting: "Wang Hong! His Royal Highness the King of Qi said, as the old department of the Central Plains, you let the Khitans slaughter our people, thousands of troops and horses, but you are afraid of dozens of Khitans, you are a son of man in vain! ”

"Today, His Royal Highness the King of Qi spared your dog's life, and these forty-six Khitan dog heads were given to you! It's the evening drum and morning bell for you! ”

"When His Highness patrols the north again to hunt, if your troops don't surrender to the city, they will all be punished!"

Huyanzan roared like thunder, and the northern army in the city was panicked on their faces.

Tang Shu patted his head, as if he was another cultivator......

Seeing this scene, Zhang Mei also smiled bitterly, hundreds of cavalry, scared Wang Hong did not dare to fight, it was also the first time in the world, this Wang Hong has never been a good man and a woman.

Ten thousand horses in the army of martial arts, it seems that His Royal Highness the King of Qi and his own army have become accustomed to it, the princess secret letter said that the King of Qi once fell into a city alone, showing off the martial arts Qilu. Looking at it now, I'm afraid it's not an exaggeration.

Not to mention the side, His Royal Highness King Qi's pro-army is really confident, this kind of arrogant thing is obviously not less, and it even seems that His Royal Highness King Qi did not break this Ningzhou City today, and they did not rush in to kill, which is already very polite.

At this time, he saw that the king of Qi was galloping slowly.

Zhang Mei thought about it for a while, then turned over and dismounted, Tang Shu beside him was stunned, and he hurriedly dismounted.

When the king of Qi arrived, Zhang Mei bowed down, hugged his fists and said: "Your Highness, Minister Zhang Mei, I implore Your Highness to protect the people of Henghai from now on!" ”

Lu Ning bowed slightly, "That's what I came to do, Zhang Jiedu, if the Liao people invade the border again, you will pay it back tenfold, with the strength of the navy, it is not difficult to defend the border, if the Liao army comes to attack in a big way, this king will lead the army to cross the Yellow River to attack it!" ”

"Obey orders!" Zhang Mei bowed deeply.

Lu Ning nodded and said, "In this way, I will go west and go to Zhenzhou to see Guo Chong." ”

Zhang Mei was slightly stunned: "Your Highness is leaving?" ”

Lu Ning said with a smile: "The soldiers are fast. ”

Zhang Mei smiled bitterly in her heart, it is rumored that the king of Qi has a few mantras, and the soldier is one of them, so after only three or two months, he took the land of Qilu.

"Your Highness, my son Zhang Shouying, how about being a close attendant by His Highness's side?" Zhang Mei bowed again.

Zhang Shouying, who was standing next to her, immediately had excitement on her face.

Lu Ning knew that Zhang Mei was tantamount to sending his only son to Yanzhou as a hostage, and the foreign vassal expressed his true surrender, after all, this Zhang Mei is now leading the navy, and the two states of Jiecang and Jing (Dingyuan Army) are equivalent to small independent kingdoms.

Lu Ning smiled, "That's not necessary." He also said: "This northern tour, if you can make the three towns of Hebei return to your heart, I will purge the military horses of your three towns, recruit forbidden troops to build the Hebei camp, and Shouying can enter the Hebei camp to listen to the errand." ”

Zhang Mei was stunned, His Royal Highness the King of Qi really never beat around the corner, and he thought about how to clean up the military horses of the three towns, and he didn't hide it at all.

But this is also, the king of Qi came north, obviously not to the three towns of Hebei only nominally annexed, if the Liao soldiers go north, from the general righteousness, the king of Qi will send reinforcements, and the Liao soldiers do not go north, and the three towns will maintain their own independent kingdom status, which is really unreasonable.

It is a good thing that the king of Qi is so straightforward and does not hide his willingness to have the real ruling power of the three towns of Hebei, otherwise, will he really have to fight secretly with the envoys of various feudal towns in the future, poison and assassinate himself, etc., and finally control these military towns in his own hands.

However, it doesn't matter to himself and Guo Chong, after all, the two of them have not been out of town for a long time, and they are the mentality of courtiers guarding the border for the Son of Heaven.

But that Sun Xingyou, but may not agree, after all, the Sun family, in Dingzhou for the local strong, it is respected by the locals as the aunt of the fairy has become an immortal, there are many believers, the deceased Sun Xingyou's brother, and now the inheritance of the domain of Sun Xingyou, inherited the mantle of his aunt, to confuse the public, many believers respect Sun Xingyou as a heavenly master.

The Sun brothers are even more because they raised troops to fight against the Khitan invasion, and then, they were recruited by the Jin lord as the commander, and they were recruited as the festival envoy in this dynasty, and their mentality is afraid that it is the mentality of the self-reliant lord.

Thinking wildly in her heart, Zhang Mei bowed down and said: "In this way, Your Highness will go to Zhenzhou and Dingzhou, so you will bring a dog to run errands for Your Highness and guide the way." ”

Lu Ning smiled: "It's okay, little nephew, I'll be biased towards you." He looked at Zhang Shouying.

In fact, Zhang Shouying is a few years older than Lu Ning.

But Zhang Mei was overjoyed, and this title was extremely intimate.

Zhang Shouying was also overjoyed, bowed down and hugged her fists, and said overjoyed: "Great, I can serve His Highness, how fortunate is the little nephew?!" Plain, the little ones can ask Brother Huyan for more military strategies. ”

Lu Ning bowed slightly, but he was speechless in his heart, Huyan praised the courage and bravery, and the art of war was strategic? That's not there, you don't have a habit of engraving and performing by him, that's good.

……

Seeing the retreat of the army and horses under the city.

Wang Hong, on the city tower, exhaled a long breath, the king of Qi, is really unscrupulous and arrogant, and he doesn't look at this Ningzhou military horse in his eyes, but it makes people's hearts twitch, and he doesn't dare to go out of the city to meet the enemy, it is conceivable that if the king of Qi really leads the army and horses to attack the city today, he is afraid that his subordinates will be scattered in an instant.

In the war with the Central Plains, the morale of the subordinates is not high, if there is a large group of Central Plains military horses attacking, if they do not open the city and surrender, they are afraid that they will be hacked to death by the generals to sacrifice the city.

The king of Qi, it seems that he must also know this, he did not attack the city today, it should be that he is not ready, he does not want to provoke the Khitans too much and start a big war with the Khitans, but, as his subordinates shouted, if the king of Qi patrols north again to hunt on the side, he will definitely lead a large team of men and horses to challenge the behemoth of the Khitan.

Speaking of which, should I look forward to it, or should I worry?

Wang Hong's mind was in a trance.

"Shi Gong, those Khitan dogs...... The heads of the Khitans, do you want to go down to the city to collect ......" the side general asked in a low voice.

Wang Hong glared at the lieutenant general and said, "Wait and send a sentry, if it really has withdrawn, go and collect it." ”

The general bowed down and said, "I'm afraid that there will be ambushes." ”

Obviously, exposing the heads of these Khitans to the sun for a few days is very inhumane according to the tradition of the Central Plains, but it is exactly what they dare not say in anger.

These Khitans, even their high-ranking officers, are not regarded as people, let alone low-level officers and even ordinary soldiers and ordinary people.

This time, this small group of Khitans stationed in Ningzhou went to fight the grass valley again, and all of them were beheaded, but in fact, in the city of Ningzhou, the soldiers and civilians all celebrated with their hands.

"In three days, we can almost go to collect the corpse......," the general muttered.

Wang Hong didn't bother to pay attention to him, snorted, and turned around to go down to the city.
