Chapter 865: Epilogue

Guan Shan is very important to the Song Dynasty today, and it is also very important to the Xia people, and the Yu Jin people, from the small abacus of the begging stone martyrs and the gods, can also know that Guan Shan is extremely important to them.

Guanshan is an extremely important military pass, and it is also an important trade route to the west, and the reason why it did not cause such a desperate rush of the Three Kingdoms before is entirely because there is no problem with the ownership of Jingzhaofu Road.

When Jingzhaofu Road belonged to the Jin people, although the Xia people occupied Guanshan, but the Jin people at that time were strong, although the Xia people occupied an important military pass, but politically they bowed to the Jin people, and the two countries were able to live in peace with each other, which is equivalent to the Xia people with political interests in exchange for military security.

With Jingzhaofu, the territory of the Central Plains, seized by the Song people overnight, then between the Jin and Xia parties, who were originally peaceful, there was suddenly an aggressive emerging force, just ask: At this time, can the Jin and Xia parties still sleep peacefully?

The Xia people were willing to make political compromises to the Jin people, even if they were subservient, they had to ensure that the Guanshan Pass was in their own hands, just so that one day, they could go east out of Guanshan and point directly to the Central Plains.

And because the Song people have been driven south of the Qinling Mountains, they have rowed the river with them to rule, and they have always been known for seeking peace and cowardice, and although the Xia people are weak, they have no choice but to occupy the dangerous pass, and it is not so easy for the Jin people to take it for a while.

Therefore, after the Xia people made political concessions, the Jin people naturally made the same concessions, as long as Jingzhaofu Road was in hand, and then always guard against the Jin people from going out of the customs, as for Guan Shan was not in his hands, before there was no third-party force, it seemed that he was not so valued by the Jin people.

Originally, it was hello and me, everyone was in harmony with the quiet frontier, just like the side of the couch how to allow others to snore, as Ye Qing suddenly inserted a bar in, and after occupying Jingzhaofu Road, he suddenly shocked Xia Ren and Jin Ren into a cold sweat.

Jingzhaofu Road goes straight to the north, is the Jinren's Hetao Road, west out of Xingzhou is the Guanshan Pass, like a sharp thorn, suddenly appeared abruptly on the chair of the Xia people and the Jin people, so in such a situation, it is natural for Xia and Jin to sit still, and they always want to pull out this thorn quickly.

At the beginning, Ye Qing was in Lin'an, and he agreed to the hot Gongji, and exchanged the three roads of Hetao for the Xia people to send troops to help Liao, but Su Dao messed up everything along the way, and coupled with the provocation of the king of the Southern Courtyard, Su Dao simply stationed in Liaowang City in the end.

This is not only a signal to target Ye Qing, but also a step for Ye Qing to break the covenant, so Ye Qing will naturally get off the donkey, even if the Xia people don't besiege him in Guanshan today, when he returns to Jingzhao Mansion, he will use Su Dao's affairs as soon as possible to compete with the Xia people for the Guanshan Pass.

As far as Wan Yan Jing is concerned, after Zhao Ruyu's envoys arrived in Yanjing and negotiated with him, he had already formed a plan in his heart at the first time, with the acquiescence of the Song court, he cooperated with the Xia people, and then used the hands of the Xia people to get rid of Ye Qing, and then took the Guanshan fortress while the Xia people and Ye Qing were fighting until they were finally weak.

In this way, at least in this territory, even if he can't recover Jingzhaofu Road for a while, as long as he holds the throats of Song and Xia, and he wants to go east or west, won't it all depend on his mood at that time?

Guanshan is bordered by the Hetao Third Road, as long as the Jin people take Guanshan, he can still rely on the powerful supply of the Hetao Three Roads to support the Guanshan fortress, similarly, Jingzhaofu Road is also bordered by Guanshan, take Guanshan, Ye Qing can hold the tail of the Xia people in one hand, tease the tail of the Jin people, or you can hold down the tail of the Jin people, and tease the tail of the Xia people, so that sooner or later, I believe that sooner or later you will also be able to take the Hetao Three Roads, the output place of the war horse.

For the Xia people, Guanshan is like the back door of his Xia country, and he has to defend it by himself to prevent foreign enemies from invading, and if it is handed over to others to guard, it is completely equivalent to playing with fire in the backyard.

And as long as Ye Qing dies, then he can also be as easy as Ye Qing, teasing the Song Dynasty's Jingzhao Mansion and teasing the three roads of the Hetao, naturally, the most ideal result is that with the Guanshan Fortress, it is best to strive to win the Jingzhaofu Road and the three roads of the Hetao.

Therefore, in such a turbulent era, especially in this period of coexistence of Xia, Jin and Song, the status of Guanshan Fortress returned to the hands of the Song people with Jingzhaofu Road, and it became more and more important to the Three Kingdoms, and everyone wanted to hold it in their arms and not let go.

Ye Qing did not hide his purpose, looked at the begging stone lie gods and slaves and said with a smile: "Guanshan is very important in the Song, Jin, and Xia capitals, since I have recaptured Jingzhaofu Road, there is no reason to put one next to me, and it may pounce out at any time to harm our fortress, so it must be pinched in your own hands to sleep soundly, right?" ”

"So Lord Ye knew what the last general was fighting early on?" The begging stone lie gods and slaves smiled bitterly, he still remembered what Yan Jing told him before he set out on the expedition, Ye Qing's treachery had been perfected, and it would make you unconsciously think that every move he made was extremely honest and defenseless to you.

"I don't know much about you, I just know Yan Jing better. Although we didn't get along for a long time, he was still a teenager at that time, and it was the period when his thinking and pattern matured and established, so I knew him very well, and I also knew better how much pressure he faced after the Northland 5th Road was recovered by me. And...... I'm afraid that you have already felt a little bit of heart and strength for the grassland now, right? So at this time, Wan Yanjing naturally wanted to cut through the chaos quickly, quickly put an end to the chaos with the Song court, and then concentrate on dealing with the Tatars on the grassland. Ye Qing said with a smile, but his expression was obviously really relaxed.

The two scouts behind him had already disappeared at this time, just when Ye Qing was talking to the begging stone lie gods, only one scout ran back, and then after whispering in his ear, Ye Qing's expression was finally truly relaxed.

"Lord Ye won?" The begging stone martyrs did not discuss with Ye Qing the topic of their Dajin Emperor.

"No, I don't know much about the situation in Maluguan, but Mo Xiaobao and Zhong Silkworm have been defeated, and they have already begun to lead the remnants of the army to defeat and flee for their lives into the mountains." Ye Qing smiled and turned his head to look at the rolling mountains and said.

The begging stone martyr god slave looked at the road behind him, and then glanced at Ye Qingdao: "If the last general returns the same way now, is it still too late?" ”

"It's too late, Yu Yunwen has always been more stable and ruthless than me in the use of soldiers, isn't Wanyan Liang a living example? Qin Jiayuan Dao is probably also under the attack of the army he led now, and it is easy for you to die when you go back. Ye Qing completely relaxed, and even the rifle that he had been holding in his hand was thrown to the panting scout next to him at this time.

"Yes...... If the last general surrenders here, even if Lord Ye doesn't kill me, I will not be able to escape death when I return to the Jin Kingdom, my hesitation has ruined the opportunity, if I rush to the ...... of the Red Deer Pass one step earlier. ”

"You won't, if you go to the Red Deer Pass one step earlier, the Xia people's forces are still very strong, and you can't take the opportunity to take the red deer. You are too stable with your troops, and you are not very sure, you will never act, so as long as Mo Xiaobao and them have not fought with the Xia people to the end, you will not attack it, you will only wait, and you will not go over until both sides are exhausted and unable to fight again. Although you will make you invincible, but you will often miss a lot of fighters, when fighting the Khorezmians, you have made several such mistakes, although it seems that you slowly sent troops, helped me and Temujin solve many hidden dangers on both wings, but those hidden dangers, even without you, can not pose a threat, because the overall situation is under our control, in our seemingly risky attack. Ye Qing's tone said with some hatred that iron does not become steel.

The begging stone martyr god slave did not refute, but sighed heavily, and then admitted this, and then raised his head, and continued to smile and said: "Since Lord Ye doesn't want the last general to die, then it means that the last general is still in Lord Ye's plan, so I don't know, in the future, in the eyes of Lord Ye, how will the last general be used by Lord Ye?" ”

"There are five thousand of your men, and now they are behind you...... Just now you said that there are nearly 10,000 people, do these people listen to you? If you return to the Kingdom of Jin empty-handed today, what will Wan Yan Jing do with you? Ye Qing didn't answer immediately, but asked rhetorically.

"I am a general of the third road of Dajin Hetao, and I have 5,000 people, and then there are ...... The 20,000 people who are still gathering in our Dajin territory were originally intended to capture the red deer, so that they could immediately attack and defend the red deer with us, and then continue to plot other passes, but now it seems that they are no longer needed. There was a hint of loss in the expressions of the begging stone martyrs, as a general, he was not afraid of defeat, let alone victory.

On the contrary, what a military general fears the most is that he is in the current situation of the gods and slaves of the begging stones, without sending a single soldier, without the sword from the sheath, without the arrows being wound, and without even touching the face of the enemy, and then he was driven out of the battle.

This is the most humiliating thing for a general, as if he is not qualified to participate in this battle.

"So after you return to the Jin Kingdom, Wan Yan Jing will not let you go?" Ye Qing asked.

The begging stone martyr god slave nodded and said, "The end of today will lose to the extreme, no matter how the saint disposes of it, the end will have nothing to say." ”

"You can't die, you're dead, who else will Wan Yan Jing rely on to resist Temujin? You have always been calm in the use of soldiers, and it is the cavalry suitable for defending against the Tatars, and after a few battles in Khorezm, you should also be able to see that if you are against Temujin's own cavalry, even if it is Muhuali and Borshu, they may not be able to win you with complete certainty. I'll help you kill people, but as for what to say after you go back, it's up to you, how about it? Ye Qing stretched out his hand, then took the rifle handed over by the scout and asked with a smile in his hand.

"Then thank you Lord Ye, today's grace will never be forgotten." The beggar god slave saluted on horseback and said.

"That's not going to be repaid?" Ye Qing asked with a smile, and the begging stone lie god slaves had already begun to ride their horses and turn around, intending to go to the front of the team.

"Casualties on the battlefield are inevitable, and the thrill above the court is better than the battlefield, the death of my father and eldest brother...... Although it is not an adult's selfish action, the last general will always remember it. After today, I will meet with adults again, and I will never respect such important people as I do today, let alone ...... Stop! "The beggar gods and slaves sat on horseback, and their smiles were extremely bright in the setting sun.

Ye Qing also smiled extremely brightly, and then nodded at the Qishilie Gods and Slaves, then picked up the gun in his hand, and walked towards the front of the team with the unguarded horses of the Qishilie Gods and Slaves.

And at this moment, a loud bang sounded in everyone's ears again, and then the fastest Jin general, who was the fastest, looked blankly at Ye Qing, who was not far away with a vague smile, and slowly fell off the horse.

"Everybody dismount at once! Violators will be killed! The begging gods and slaves just glanced at the golden general who had been buzzing in his ears like a fly for the past few days, and then roared at the army of Wuyang and Wuyang behind him.

As his words fell, the same words instantly sounded in the army, under the orders of the officers and men of each army, it was just a blink of an eye, and the 10,000 cavalry of the Jin people jumped off their horses one by one and stood silently next to the war horses.

As the sun set, the shadow that was gradually elongated slowly became blurred, and the whole sky seemed to be smeared with a layer of indescribable solemnity, and the ten thousand iron horsemen of the golden man stood quietly in front of the horse, Ye Qing was still sitting on the stone, and no one bothered anyone again.

The begging stone lie gods and slaves knew very well in their hearts that he still hadn't escaped becoming Ye Qing's pawn, he didn't want to die, let alone his family, and he didn't want to die after he died, there was one less general who could kill the enemy for the saint, and one less loyal courtier.

And he was sure that even if he returned to Dajin like this, the Holy Lord would not blame him, but no one dared to guarantee that no one else would put pressure on the Holy Lord to punish him for his incompetence.

At that time, once the saint falls into a dilemma, Yu Dajin's court is stable and the country is of no benefit at all, so when he doesn't want to die, and the matter here can't give others a handle, the only way is to let Ye Qing, under the noses of himself and all the soldiers, kill the general, so as to save his own life, solve the dilemma for the saint, and let Ye Qing carry one more golden life.

Ye Qing didn't wait for Mo Xiaobao and Zhong Silkworm to come, which made his mood feel extremely heavy, and he didn't know whether Mo Xiaobao, Zhong Silkworm, Jia She, and others at this moment were killed in battle, or they fled into the undulating mountains with the remnants.

He had no way to look for it, not to mention, now, there was nothing left by his side except a rifle, and the scout who was still there just now had been sent out by himself to find the whereabouts of the Flower Planter Army.

The begging stone lie gods and slaves no longer spoke to themselves, as if they didn't know each other at all, and as if they didn't exist at all, but when the sunset turned into a sunset on the western skyline, they finally couldn't help it, and sent a golden scout who couldn't stand on his feet and trembled as soon as he stepped on his legs, holding high his hands holding a water bag in one hand and food in the other, and walked over in the direction of Ye Qing with a sad face.

"Lord Ye...... Don't kill the little ....... It seems that this scout is also a soldier who once followed the gods and slaves of Qishilie to the Liao Kingdom and Halazm: "The little one will bring you some food." ”

Ye Qing smiled and pointed his gun to the sky, then looked at the scout, put the food not far from him, turned around and ran, the speed was not much slower than that of the mountain rabbit.

Ye Qing looked at the scout who was running wildly, smiled at the muzzle of the gun and picked up the water bag and food, and when he looked back over there, he saw the begging stone martyr god slave slowly standing up, looking in his direction.

opened the water bag and raised his head to take a sip, then picked up the bacon in his other hand and took a bite hard, the begging stone lie god slave over there slowly pulled out his waist knife with a smile, and next to him was the scout who had just brought water and food to Ye Qing.

"Privately eating water and food for enemy generals is regarded as rebellion!" The begging stone lie gods and slaves raised their swords and fell, and the scout's head just now instantly fell to the ground and rolled down in the direction of Ye Qing.

The golden soldiers behind him were silent one by one, and then when Ye Qing bit the bacon in his mouth and didn't move, and slowly stood up, like a human wall, they stood still in front of the begging stone lie gods and slaves, and tightly surrounded the begging stone lie gods and slaves in the middle.

There was a rapid sound of horses' hooves behind Ye Qing, and on the road in front of the begging stone spirits and gods, there was also a rapid sound of horses' hooves, as the sound of horses' hooves got closer and closer, it was already vaguely distinguishable that it was the armor of the soldiers of the Song people, the bright red lings were on top of the helmet, and under the glow of the sunset, it was extremely eye-catching at this moment.

"Ye Qing......." Behind Ye Qing, there was the voice of Lao Liu.

"Come on...... Here it comes? Ye Qing turned his head, his mouth was still stuffed with bacon, and he was still carrying a water bag and food in his hand, revealing a bitter smile and said, "Xiaobao, Zhong silkworm...... Did they find it? ”

"I'm looking for it, I've already gathered a lot of people, and I'm sure there will be more ......." Old Liu Tou looked at Ye Qing's pitiful appearance, but he felt heartache inexplicably.

Covered in dust and grass like a beggar, his rifle resting on his waist, holding a water bag and food in his hand, a trouser tube has long been half cut off, several toes are exposed at the tip of his shoe, his hands holding water bags are covered with blood, and his face is ...... Except for those bright eyes, there is no clean place to be seen.

"You're fine!" Lao Liu punched Ye Qing in the chest heavily, and his eyes involuntarily flushed.

"Find Mo Xiaobao and Zhong Silkworm first, it's okay here, beg Shilie gods to enslave them...... Let them go. Ye Qing wanted to spit out the bacon in his mouth and speak, but as soon as he remembered the scout's head that rolled in his direction, he turned around and shook the food and water bag in his hand at the begging stone lie gods and slaves, and then he ate again, and in the end, there was nothing left, all of them were stuffed into his stomach!

"It's all flesh and blood, human flesh, human blood! Ye Qing, aren't you heartbroken? Can you eat and drink so peacefully? The beggar stone lie gods roared, his tone was full of anger and pain, although he knew that Ye Qing was his brother-killing enemy, but he still respected and admired Ye Qing extremely in his heart, especially after being with Ye Qing for so long, Ye Qing's honesty and some teachings had almost made him completely forget that Ye Qing was his brother-killing enemy.

So at this time, his mood towards Ye Qing was the same as treating Yan Jing, full of contradictions and entanglements, loyalty and dissatisfaction!
