Yang Lie squeezed in the east, the guards pressed in the west, and the Khitans who escaped from Yingzhou and the Han army in Youzhou were beaten to the ground, and they were embarrassed to lose their armor and abandon their armor. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Li Zhongyi sat firmly on the back of the horse, and kept silently watching the scattered Khitans, not knowing what he was thinking.

Li Cuixuan asked Li Zhongyi curiously: "Master, why don't you catch up?" ”

Li Zhongyi was secretly funny, this vixen-like woman, her curiosity was so strong, it was really unthinkable!

"Zhu Niang, you tell her, why didn't Ben Shuai chase after him immediately?" Li Zhongyi was too lazy to understand the general military knowledge of pediatrics, so he simply pushed Zhu Niang out and asked her to help educate Li Cuixuan, who had not yet fully enlightened her.

Zhu Niang pulled her bow and arrows, and she didn't see how to aim, so she heard the bowstring sound, and at the same time as the bowstring sounded, someone fell off the horse with a scream, and was instantly trampled into meat sauce by the war horse behind.

"You're just the master's maidservant, aren't you afraid that if you know too much, you will be struck by lightning?" Zhu Niang took the bow, glanced at Li Cuixuan coldly, and lectured her disdainfully, "Let me ask you, can you use the knife?" Can you afford a five-stone bow? Hmph, Bai has a stinky skin of a fox......"

In the dark, Li Zhongyi curled the corners of his mouth and smiled slightly, this really corresponds to the old saying, Xiucai can't explain it when he meets Bing.

Li Zhongyi deliberately asked Zhu Niang to answer Li Cuixuan's questions, just to completely dispel her arrogance, so as not to make trouble in the back house in the future.

Although Zhu Niang is Li Zhongyi's concubine, she is from the Northwest Fold family, and she was originally the maid of Fold Saihua.

Zhu Niang, whose elbow can only turn inward, can only be in the same breath as the folding flower in the back house of the old Li family, and it is absolutely impossible to walk together with Li Cuixuan.

Based on this, Li Zhongyi consciously released the wildness of Zhu Niang, which is equivalent to invisibly finding a difficult opponent for Li Cuixuan, a little vixen.

Although Li Zhongyi is in the family, it is impossible to tie Li Cuixuan to the waistband of his trousers, and take her with him wherever he goes.

Then, for the sake of the peace of the back house, Li Zhongyi didn't mind that Zhu Niang gave Li Cuixuan some hardships to eat, so that she could have a good memory.

Li Cuixuan was despised by Zhu Niang as useless, but she was powerless to fight back, war is her worst field, but Zhu Niang is a battle-hardened female warrior, with professionalism to business, Zhu Niang will definitely win.

Li Zhongyi noticed that Li Cuixuan's small hands were holding his neck with extra force, as if they were going to strangle him. Hehe, this little vixen is still young and impatient in the end, but it shows a flaw in his momentum.

More than 100,000 Khitans and Youzhou troops wanted to escape, but Yingzhou only had two city gates, and the city was ignited by hay and fierce fire oil early, and the flames were scorching.

At present, the east gate has been completely blocked by the elite first army led by Yang Lie, and if the Khitans in the city do not want to be burned to death, there are only two ways: to go down the city with a rope and to escape by seizing the gate.

Li Zhongyi's delay in ordering a general attack of the whole army was actually waiting for a major event to happen, and once there was an unexpected change, it would definitely have an unusually positive impact on Li Zhongyi's next plan.

Zhu Niang did not give Li Cuixuan a lesson, Li Cuixuan was unable to fight back, so she had to endure it temporarily, so as not to show more cowardice.

Li Zhongyi didn't pay attention to the confrontation between the two women at all, and on the occasion of the big war, his attention was always focused on Yingzhou City.

After a while, there was a sudden shouting of killing and a terrible scream in the city, Li Zhongyi narrowed his eyes and curled the corners of his mouth, and smiled slightly: Finally waited for the result he wanted!

Ants still steal life, let alone human beings who are the spirits of all things?

Survival is the instinct of human beings, whether it is the Khitan people or the Han army in Youzhou, who doesn't want to live?

Li Zhongyi's smile had not yet converged, but he heard Li Cuixuan whisper: "The Khitan people and the Han army in Youzhou are killing each other, but you expected it in advance?" "Exhaling like an orchid, refreshing people's hearts.

"Little thing, just now I made Zhu Niang count so that she couldn't even say a word, but now she is alive?" Li Zhongyi was secretly frightened, Li Cuixuan only judged what he wanted from the battle of soldiers and iron in the city and the screams of dying, what kind of superior wisdom was this?

Although she didn't get an answer from Li Zhongyi, Li Cuixuan tasted the majestic power like a storm crashing on the shore from his calm tone.

"If Mount Tai is the same as a feather, this honest husband will also do!" Li Cuixuan buried her head in Li Zhongyi's arms, and hung an ancient saying.

"Hmph, what's your use other than chanting these sour words?" Zhu Niang said it very ugly, and on the spot, Li Cuixuan's artistic conception that had not yet finished singing was completely destroyed.

Li Zhongyi couldn't hold back a smile, glanced at Zhu Niang with a smile, and then at Li Cuixuan, who was silent, hehe, since ancient times, one thing descends one thing, great!

For inadvertently, Li Zhongyi found a nemesis for Li Cuixuan, Li Zhongyi is very satisfied, Zhu Niang has a flexible brain and real kung fu in her hands, and the status of the two women is similar, and it is only Li Cuixuan who really falls out and suffers, not Zhu Niang.

As the shouts of killing in the city became louder and louder, there were fewer and fewer Khitans fleeing for their lives out of the city.

Li Zhongyi lightly ordered: "Tell me to go down, let the sons and daughters not be forced too hard, and leave time and space for those people in the city to fire." ”

"When these people return to Youzhou, I'm afraid the hatred will no longer be resolved." Li Cuixuan hugged Li Zhongyi's neck and whispered in his ear to break his mind.

"Just trying to gain and lose one city and one place, that's the work of a reckless man, and the gap between the famous generals is about 108,000 miles." Li Zhongyi's face showed an evil smile that made Li Cuixuan both hate and fear, he stretched out his huge palm in front of Li Cuixuan, and suddenly grabbed it hard, "If you want to destroy the deadly threat of the Khitan Kingdom, you must first eliminate its traitors and minions in Youzhou, and this so-called cutting off of wings is also." ”

Facing Li Zhongyi's look that you understand, Li Cuixuan was speechless for a long time, the longer she spent with this lustful man, the more she couldn't see his true face clearly, it was really a strange thing.

After the city gate was blocked, people kept using ropes to go out of the city, trying to escape in the thick of the night.

It's a pity that the Ruiyong battalion under Li Yunxiao is doing the work of special forces all day long. They were either in groups of three or ten people, and hunted down the Khitans or the Han army of Youzhou who were out of the city one by one by taking advantage of the skyrocketing fire in the city.

"Ah......" The screams, rolls, and cries on the city wall were intertwined into a requiem of death's wanton harvest.

Li Zhongyi noticed that Li Cuixuan was squeezing into his arms vigorously, obviously frightened, he couldn't help but sigh secretly, women, after all, they are not suitable to appear on the iron-blooded battlefield.

"Report to the marshal, there are traces of a large group of Khitan tribesmen in the southwest of our army." The sentinel who was released far away brought back the information that Li Zhongyi wanted most.

Li Zhongyi turned over and dismounted, put Li Cuixuan on the ground, and turned into the military tent of the Senate.

"There's no news from Yelu Hugh yet?" After Li Zhongyi entered the account, he asked He Dabei.

He Dabei spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "The location of the Khitan departments is basically under the control of our army, but there is no trace of Yelu Huge. ”

Li Zhongyi nodded and said: "Brother Yelu Xiu has indeed moved his blood to encircle and suppress us this time, and even the Han army in Youzhou has been dispatched, so there is no reason why his sentry can't see the majestic fire at the head of Yingzhou City?" ”

"Marshal, what the last general is most worried about now is that we will let the cavalry out to chase and kill the defeated army in Yingzhou, and Brother Yelu Xiu will suddenly outflank him from behind, then there will be big trouble!" He Dabei expressed his concerns, and Yang Wushuang followed up and analyzed, "Dashuai, I'm afraid that Brother Yelu Xiu is fighting this idea." It's just that the last general has not thought about one thing clearly, if the Khitan army in Nanjing Province has suffered huge losses, then what if Yelu Huge gets rid of the crime in the future? ”

Li Zhongyi narrowed his eyes, smiled but did not speak, he dared to assert that Yelu Xiuge should have known the bad news of the attack on Yingzhou.

Moreover, Li Zhongyi is sure that Yelu Hugo has already launched an operation.

The reason why Li Jiajun's sentries have not yet sent back the emergency alarm is because Yelu Xiuge did not come directly to Yingzhou, and it is impossible for the sentries to rush all the way back.

According to common sense, Yelu Hugo mobilized so many soldiers and horses, including the leather room army, the soldiers and horses of the Youzhou Governor's Mansion, the Youzhou Han army, and the tribal army on the grassland, so one side should be in trouble and all sides should support it.

However, until now, except for the steppe tribesmen who have appeared, Yelu Hugo seems to have evaporated from the world and has never been seen.

Li Zhongyi sat on the pony in the corner of the military tent of the Senate Division, supported his chin with one hand, stared at a certain direction in the lower left corner of the sand table, and was silent for a long time.

In the account of the Senate, from time to time, someone handed in the battle report in front of him, and Li Zhongyi turned a blind eye.

Li Zhongyi thought about the general factors of the question raised by He Dabei, but because he could not thoroughly understand the real situation in the Khitan, it was just a guess after all.

Now, even if Yelu Hugo is capable, the Khitan and Han army from Youzhou in Yingzhou have already ended.

Facing the elite cavalry of the Khitans head-on, Li Zhongyi had previously achieved a complete victory in Mingzhou, thus verifying the feasibility of foot to horse.

It is no exaggeration to say that it was not until that moment that Li Zhongyi himself and his subordinates all officially entered a new military realm.

For more than 100 years, the cavalry advantage of the grassland peoples, who had been overwhelming the Han army in the Central Plains, was found by Li Zhongyi through actual combat.

The infantry bow and crossbow of the Central Plains Dynasty are actually stronger than the grassland peoples in most cases, and the reason is very simple, compared with the riding bows of the grassland peoples, the infantry bows have the advantage of longer range and greater power.

In addition, the biggest drawback of infantry riding is actually that even if the infantry army wins the battle, it is difficult to catch up and expand the results!

It's just that since the Khitans got Youzhou, with the participation of Han craftsmen, the craftsmanship and technology of iron smelting gradually surpassed that of the Central Plains Dynasty, which had been in the midst of a melee.

However, the Divine Arm Bow made by Li Zhongyi greatly made up for the lack of purity of the iron, not only with a long range but also with great power.

Tonight, Li Zhongyi kept Liao Shanhe's Third Army as the general reserve of the campaign, the purpose of which was to guard against the sudden attack of Yelu Huge.

Not only that, but the party cavalry unit under Po Chaoyong, which originally had only more than 2,000 people, was also expanded to about 7,000 people after replenishing fresh blood.

The chariot array that Li Guang used to fight against the Hun cavalry was also used by Li Zhongyi for reference, and the large number of chariots captured by the northward advance could just come in handy.

In the battle of Yingzhou, due to the invisible containment of Yelu Huge, Li Zhongyi originally had no intention of exerting all his strength to fight a complete war of annihilation.

In Li Zhongyi's opinion, leaving the Youzhou Han army, which is extremely resentful of the Khitans, is more cost-effective from a strategic point of view than destroying them in one fell swoop!

No matter how good the Khitans were at whitewashing the peace and vigorously promoting and reusing Han officials, they were never able to solve an extremely fatal fundamental problem: the racial contradictions that their hearts must be different.

The Khitans appointed Han officials, which was the same as the Japanese army's use of the puppet army, at most, it was to let the puppet army maintain law and order and help to loot the people's finances and taxes.

How the Khitans, who fought bloody battles in Yingzhou and Youzhou Han Army, will face the Youzhou Han Army, which has not suffered much loss in strength, and the vast number of Youzhou Han people, this is indeed a big question worth pondering.

In World War II, the reckless Japanese army and navy won many battles, but in the end they were bombed by black weapons.

With the vast territory and mobilization potential of the Khitan State, even if Li Zhongyi ate the entire Khitan army in the Youzhou region, he would never be able to let the Khitans destroy the country in one battle

Killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred himself, if Li Zhongyi's strength is too damaged, it is likely to return to the day of Kaifeng, which is the beginning of the extinction of the dead clan.

After inflicting heavy losses on the Khitans and planting the seeds of hatred between the Han and Tibetan in Youzhou, Li Zhongyi returned to the Central Plains with his brilliant military exploits, so that he could have the prestige and qualifications to participate in the battle for real power in the Great Zhou!

The fire in the city was in full swing, and Li Yunxiao and Liu Heyang, who were in charge of interception outside the city, did not press very hard according to Li Zhongyi's prior orders.

Everyone understands the reason why dogs are anxious to jump over the wall!

Li Zhongyi was not idle here, and the elite sentries of the sentry camp were scattered fifty miles away, just to guard against a possible sneak attack by Yelu Hugo.

The rooftops of the city were all covered with hay, and the rockets fired from outside the city were densely pricked into the hay, and the roofs could be set on fire in an instant.

The east gate was blocked by Yang Lie, and the west gate was flanked by Li Yunxiao's guards and Liu Heyang's second army, and the Khitans who were the first to escape from the city threw down many dead bodies along the way, and there were no three out of ten alive.

quite Chaoyong waited for a long time, but he never waited for Li Zhongyi's military order to let him pursue, so he was naturally a little anxious, and ran to see Li Zhongyi after getting permission.

"What? Can't stand the loneliness? Li Zhongyi instructed his entourage to put a small pony in front of him, and motioned for quite Chaoyong to sit down and speak.

Po Chaoyong sat on the pony with a smiling face, salivated and said: "Master, the Khitans who escaped are not old or young, if you don't catch up and wait for them to regroup, then there is a threat of being surrounded." ”

Li Zhongyi didn't answer Quite Chaoyong's words, and asked him with a smile: "The soldiers are all in a hurry, right?" Otherwise, you won't be going to fight again and again. ”

Quite Chaoyong smiled and said: "Master, you are so wise, you can know the truth by pinching your fingers, and the small one is really admirable!" ”

Li Zhongyi smiled, quite Chaoyong used to be in front of him, although he was also deferential, but there was still the arrogance of the party nobles between his gestures.

The last time he went on a northern expedition to the Khitan Kingdom, after Li Zhongyi took Yuguan in one fell swoop, quite Chaoyong's attitude towards him was obviously more docile.

After Li Zhongyi marched north this time and broke the Khitans in Mingzhou, quite Chaoyong completely gave up the party nobles and regarded himself as a retainer of the old Li family.

Li Zhongyi remembered the changes in Quite Chaoyong's eyes, but he just paid attention to it silently, and did not stop Quite Chaoyong's intention to get close.

He was born in a family of party members, and he also knew some Chinese characters, but compared to the Han doctors, he was illiterate.

Li Zhongyi never expected an illiterate person of a different race, it was possible to understand too much of the righteousness of the Han nation, he only needed to be quite brave and remember one sentence is enough: reward loyalty and punish adultery, Shunchang rebels!

Don't look at the fact that he is not very educated, and his keen intuition for good birds to choose trees and perch on them is even far beyond that of many old Han bureaucrats.

Since seeing the rising trend of the Li family, quite Chaoyong has given up the unrealistic illusions he once had, and wants to please Li Zhongyi's appreciation.

Although Li Zhongyi did not say that his heart would be different if he was not of my race, because of the checks and balances of the military system, he was not worried about being quite brave and courageous and arsoning into chaos.

Employing people with suspicion and suspicion has always been Li Zhongyi's principle of employing people, and as long as the military law is strictly enforced, he will not dare to disagree with him if he has a hundred courages.

What's more, even if he was quite brave and wanted to rebel, the family members of the party cavalry under him were all in the hands of Guo Huai, the commander of the Lingzhou army.

Under the tremendous pressure of destroying the door, Li Zhongyi had every reason to believe that it was impossible for quite Chaoyong to unite the party cavalry.

Now, in the face of the loyal and brave man, Li Zhongyi naturally did not show him his face, but comforted him warmly: "After this battle, all the cavalry replenished to you will be under your command." ”

After hearing this, he couldn't help but feel ecstatic, he originally only had 3,000 soldiers and horses, counting the hundreds of warriors lost in battle, there were only more than 2,000 people left.

However, the cavalry of the Han army that Li Zhongyi arranged to replenish was more than 4,000 people, so how could he not like it, the foreign general who was quite Chaoyong, turned out to be the general who led the most troops in the Li family's army?

Looking at the overjoyed Quite Chaoyong, Li Zhongyi smiled slightly, no matter what happens in the future, at least so far, Quite Chaoyong obviously has no second thoughts.

"Once Jeruxiu appears, you must take on the heavy responsibility of entanglement him." Li Zhongyi's face suddenly turned solemn, and he said extremely sternly, "Even if the troops are exhausted, as long as they drag Brother Yelu Xiu, it will be a miracle, and I will have a heavy reward, even ...... Cough...... It is not impossible for Wanhu Hou. ”

What the? Seal the Marquis of Ten Thousand Households? Everyone in the military tent of the entire Senate Division was stunned by Li Zhongyi's sudden promise! (To be continued.) )
