Di Qing nodded and smiled: "They are too big, after leaving Shazhou, they ran all the way here. I didn't fight much, I just set up a pocket array, and they took the initiative to get in. ”

Kou Ji nodded and said, "There are quite a few of them. It's enough that the Black Khan Wang Yusufu and Xiao Pi are distressed for a while. ”

Kou Jice stepped forward immediately, and the soldiers of the Yongxing Army and the local soldiers took the initiative to get out of the way and let Kou Ji pass by.

Although Kou Ji did not reveal his identity, the soldiers of the Yongxing Army and the local soldiers had already guessed who he was.

As everyone knows, Di Qing has two brothers.

One of them is now a rich man in Baozhou, and the other is the first person in the Great Song Dynasty military.

In Yangguan, among the ten thousand armies, the only person who could attract Di Qing to take the initiative to get off the horse and come over was the first person in the Great Song Dynasty military.

But any officer in the army, who dares to say a word in front of this big man, who dares to stand in his way.

Kou Ji rode his horse to the captive soldiers, looked at the captives carefully, and said lightly: "The Liao soldiers have all been beheaded, and the head is sent to Xiao Pi's enemy, and the corpses are dragged out to the fertile land."

The Black Khan soldiers were all kept, waiting for people from Xiliang City to come, and pulling them all to mine. ”

Di Qing looked stunned, and didn't understand why Kou Ji only ordered the Liao soldiers to be beheaded, but not the Black Khan soldiers.

But he didn't ask much, but ordered the soldiers in the army to decisively carry out Kou Ji's order.

Tens of thousands of Liao soldiers, because of Kou Ji's fluttering words, were in a different place.

The soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty in Yangguan can be regarded as having seen the demonic and ferocious nature of this demon king.

Since Kou Ji recovered Hexi, there have been rumors of Kou Ji's murderous reputation inside and outside the Great Song Dynasty, and it was bluntly said that Kou Ji was the demon king.

But the majority of the people did not believe it.

Because Kou Ji is in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, he has a lot of good reputation.

So few people believe that Kou Ji is a murderer who doesn't blink.

Therefore, some new soldiers who joined the army did not believe that Kou Ji was a demon who killed people without blinking.

But now that they saw Kou Ji sending tens of thousands of Liao soldiers to the guillotine without blinking his eyes, they finally believed it.

Not only did they believe that Kou Ji was a demon, but they also saw the authority of the Great Song Dynasty's privy envoy.

After Kou Ji instructed Di Qing to deal with the Liao soldiers in the appendix, he did not stay on the streets of Guancheng for long, but went to the place where Guancheng lived first.

After Di Qing settled the captives, he appeared in Kou Ji's room with a table of wine and food that was not sumptuous.

Di Qing put the wine and food on the table, and said a little embarrassed: "It's winter right now, and I'm in the army, so I don't have anything good to entertain my brother......

Kou Ji didn't wait for Di Qing to finish speaking, then interrupted him, "Okay." Your brother and I are not a difficult lord to serve. The Lord who is really difficult to serve will not be in the way of your dignity for the sake of my face.

You don't have to do this kind of flattering thing in the future, and you don't need to please anyone.

As long as I live, no one will embarrass you in some trivial matters, you just need to fight your battles steadily. ”

Di Qing also knew that he was not suitable for stammering people, so he smiled bitterly.

Although he has now shown his prominence on the battlefield, he is not the mature and steady general Di Hanchen in the history books.

Some thoughts are easily revealed on the face and can be easily seen through.

Kou Ji invited Di Qing to sit down, and said lightly: "I will send someone to your army when I go back, you help me sharpen it, and I will use it when I go back." ”

Di Qing asked, "What kind of person, how to grind?" ”

Kou Ji glanced at Di Qing and said, "How can you grind when you are transferred to the army, of course, you will be thrown into the army to endure hardship." If it doesn't work, you can hang it up and smoke it. ”

Di Qing hesitated for a moment, and said: "The person that my brother wants to use must be extraordinary, isn't it inappropriate to hang it up and fight?" ”

Kou Ji said indifferently: "There is nothing inappropriate. He owes you, and he owes it to all the warriors of the Great Song Dynasty. ”

Di Qing looked puzzled.

Kou Ji didn't explain much, he lifted his chopsticks, and while eating the food sent by Di Qing, he asked, "Tell me about the war in Hexi." ”

When Di Qing heard this, he hurriedly explained the recent war in Hexi to Kou Ji.

After listening to Di Qing's explanation, Kou Ji put down his chopsticks and sighed: "Black Khan King Yu Sufu is really good. He fought like this, and in the end, he was either killed by Chong Shiheng or killed by you. ”

If there are a large number of soldiers and horses, they can run rampant on the battlefield.

The Great Song Dynasty had already hammered the Liao State decades ago.

The number of soldiers and horses has an effect on the eastern battlefield, but it is not absolute.

There is a big difference between the war in the East and the war in the West.

The Black Khan King Yusufu led his heavy troops to the East, and he still used the Western way of fighting, which was almost no different from looking for death.

Di Qing didn't understand Kou Ji's thoughts, and after he heard Kou Ji's words, he asked, "Isn't this good?" The Black Khan soldiers' way of fighting is to eat the enemy, as long as we are strong and clear, and constantly drag them.

In less than a month, they will be brought down.

Then we will be able to defeat them easily.

No more than two months before and after.

After beating them, we can just rush to Yanmen Pass to fight some Liao. ”

Kou Ji smiled and said to Di Qing: "The war in Hexi is far from being as simple as you see. The Black Khan Dynasty is just a stupid wolf on the surface, and in the secret, there are countless smart wolves quietly waiting for time.

Since we have started to fight wolves, we should wipe out all the wolves, and there is no reason to fight half and keep half.

When we have finished fighting all the wolves, it will not be too late to fight the Liao State. ”

Di Qing heard Kou Ji's words, and was suspicious, "Brother means that the Qingtang people are wolves hiding in the shadows?" ”

Kou Ji asked rhetorically, "Can't you see it?" ”

Di Qing groaned: "You can see it, but if we quickly defeat the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty, the people of Qingtang may not dare to make a move." ”

Kou Ji smiled: "So we have to slow down the speed of fighting wolves, and it's best to wait until all the wolves have emerged, and then we will play hard." ”

Di Qing hesitated: "Qingtang has been peeping at my Great Song Dynasty for a long time, and he refuses to show it for a long time, because he is afraid of the strength of my Great Song Dynasty. If you want to lure them out, I'm afraid you will have to wait until March next year when the Liao soldiers go south.

I deduced that if the Liao soldiers did not go south, they would definitely not make a move. ”

Kou Ji nodded and smiled, "You're right. ”

Di Qing frowned slightly and said, "But when the Liao people go south and form a situation of east-west attack, the situation will be very unfavorable to our Great Song Dynasty." ”

Kou Ji smiled: "The premise is that they can form a momentum of east-west attack." They pressed us to fight, and that's the momentum. If we press them to fight, then we will not scream. ”

Di Qing hesitated: "My brother is sure that he will leave the people of the Black Khan Dynasty until the Liao people go south, and then press and fight." ”

Kou Ji stared at Di Qing and reminded, "The soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty are used to fighting to feed their wars. The longer we hold on to the battlefield without a huge capture, the more disadvantageous it will be to them.

Therefore, when it drags on until the beginning of spring next year, the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty will not be afraid.

What we are really guarding against are the Qingtang people.

Don't look at Qingtang's superficial respect for my Da Song, in fact, the strength that Qingtang has secretly accumulated has reached the point where he can wrestle with my Da Song. ”

Although the Black Khan Dynasty had a large number of soldiers and horses, its shortcomings were very obvious.

As long as the shortcomings of the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty are caught and poked to death, the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty will be poked to death sooner or later.

Qingtang soldiers and horses are different.

Qingtang was born in Tibet, and as early as the heyday of Tibet, he had learned how to fight against the Central Plains and how to fight with wisdom.

Passed down from generation to generation, the Qingtang soldiers and horses naturally knew how to fight against the soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty.

The soldiers and horses of Qingtang are not like the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty, they become half-crippled when they get off the horse.

Qingtang soldiers and horses, and the horses are all fierce soldiers.

Therefore, Qingtang soldiers and horses are not easy to deal with.

Di Qing groaned: "So then you have to drag the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty and wait for the Qingtang people to make a move?" ”

Kou Ji nodded slowly.

Di Qing hesitated, "I still don't understand something. ”

Kou Ji smiled: "You ask ......"

Di Qing was puzzled: "In the city just now, why did my brother only kill the Liao people and not the Black Khan people?" ”

Kou Ji said frankly: "If you don't kill the Black Khan, it's because the Black Khan is still useful." ”

Seeing that Di Qing still looked puzzled, Kou Ji explained: "Once the people of Qingtang make a move on my Great Song, then my Great Song will definitely give Qingtang a head-on blow." After defeating Qingtang, the people in Qingtang are bound to be hostile to our Great Song Dynasty.

We want to include Qingtang in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, which is very difficult.

But if we first send the Black Khan soldiers into Qingtang to plow the ground, and then we lead the heavy troops into Qingtang to drive away the Black Khan soldiers, we can easily win the hearts of the Qingtang people. ”

"Are Qingtang people so stupid?"

"It's not that the Qingtang people are stupid, it's because in the face of the brutal Black Khan and the gentle Song people, the Qingtang people are more willing to be ruled by us."

“……”

Di Qing stared at Kou Ji and said, "We haven't defeated the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty yet, and my brother has already begun to think about how to recover Qingtang, isn't it too fast?" ”

Kou Ji shook his head and said, "Not fast, not happy...... I'm not afraid that he Qingtang will make a move, but I'm afraid that he Qingtang won't make a move. If Qingtang makes a move, I will definitely let them see how powerful I am.

If Qingtang doesn't make a move, if we want to enter Qingtang, I'm afraid we will have to wait until the war between our Great Song Dynasty and the Liao State is over.

The territory of Liao is vast, and once my Great Song Army enters Liao, I will not be satisfied just because I have taken back the sixteen states of Yanyun.

At that time, it is bound to hit the capital of Liao.

Although my Great Song Dynasty is strong and strong, if I want to fight in the capital of Liao, I am afraid it will not work in two or three years.

Therefore, if Qingtang does not show its head this time, I am afraid that we will not be able to enter Qingtang until two or three years later.

When the time comes, it is indispensable to have a conversation with some old guys in the court. ”

Di Qing listened to Kou Ji's words and completely understood Kou Ji's intentions.

Immediately.

Di Qing said: "Since my brother has the intention to lure the Qingtang people into the bait, then we can slow down the pace of eliminating the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty." ”

Kou Ji nodded and said, "You go back and send someone to Guazhou and tell Chong Shiheng that he can consume the number of soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty at will." But when the food is right, a little can be left for the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan.

They can't be fed, but they can't starve to death.

One person can drink one bowl of porridge a day.

We still have a lot of use in keeping the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty, we can't scare people away, let alone kill all them. ”

Di Qing laughed and said, "The hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty are all flood beasts in the eyes of others. How did it come to the eyes of my brother, like a sheep raised at home. ”

Kou Ji laughed, "You go and ask Jiaoluo, and then ask Xiao Pidi, and see what the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty are in their eyes." ”

"Probably...... It's also a sheep. ”

Di Qing hesitated for a moment and said.

Kou Ji nodded and said, "They are in a pile and form an unstoppable charging formation, which is indeed a bit of a wolf. But when they are out of the charge, they are no different from sheep.

When I arrived in the land of my Great Song Dynasty, I didn't know how to fight in the way of my Great Song Dynasty, and I was a group of lambs to be slaughtered. ”

Di Qing talked to Kou Ji for a while, then exited the room and sent someone to convey Kou Ji's order to Chong Shiheng.

In the city of Guazhou.

After weakening the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty again, Chong Shiheng led his troops to retreat to the city of Guazhou.

Just rested.

The battle report of Yangguan was delivered along with Kou Ji's order.

After reading Yangguan's battle report, Chong Shiheng's evaluation was very simple, "Such a simple black sweat soldier is not enough to kill." ”

casually threw Yangguan's battle report aside.

Chong Shiheng looked at the order sent by Kou Ji, and after reading Kou Ji's order, Chong Shiheng frowned.

"Leave some food for the Black Khans? Aren't you afraid of raising tigers? ”

"Go find Li Gong and say that I have something important to discuss."

Chong Shiheng gave an order, and some soldiers left the tent of the temporary Chinese army in Guazhou City, went to the Yamen of Guazhou City, and invited Li Di.

Li Di arrived at the tent of the temporary Chinese army.

Chong Shiheng immediately handed the order in his hand to Li Di.

When Li Di was flipping through the order, Chong Shiheng asked, "What does Li Gong think?" ”

After Li Di read Kou Ji's order, he did not answer Chong Shiheng, but asked rhetorically: "What do you think of Chong Tongzhi?" ”

Chong Shiheng did not hide it, and slowly said his inference.

"Kou Shumi's should want to fish."

"Qingtang?"

"Yes, Qingtang.

It's just that the stakes of fishing are somewhat high. First, Qingtang is not a small fish, but a big fish, once the fish is caught, if it can't be killed, it will eat itself.

Second, it is easy to raise tigers.

Although the Black Khan soldiers are weak, they are numerous.

It will be difficult for us to annihilate them in one fell swoop if we do not weaken them to the point of being very weak. ”

After saying what Chong Shiheng said, Li Di thought about it carefully, and after thinking about it for a long time, he said: "The old man lives in Hexi all the year round, but he knows the old neighbor of King Qingtang.

There are far more soldiers and horses in his hands than are visible on the surface.

And the strength is not bad.

At present, almost all the soldiers and horses in the entire western border of our Great Song Dynasty have been dispatched to Hexi, and there are not many soldiers and horses guarding Qingtang.

Once the King of Qingtang makes a move, the form will be very bad for us.

However, the old man also knows Koji.

Kou Ji never fights uncertain battles, let alone does things that he is not sure of.

Since he dared to do this, he must have something to rely on.

Therefore, we still figured out Kou Ji's dependence and then discussed the matter. ”

Chong Shiheng shook his head and said, "If Kou Shumi was willing to say it, he would have told me and the plate a long time ago." Now he said nothing, apparently unwilling to tell me the details. ”

Li Di pondered for a moment and said, "Now the people and grain in Guazhou have all been transported to the back of Yumen Pass. It didn't do much for the old man to stay here. The old man will go to Yangguan to help you ask and see what kind of medicine is sold in Kou Ji's gourd. ”

Chong Shiheng saluted Li Di, "Then there will be Lao Li Gong." ”

Li Di smiled and said, "You're welcome, the old man is a hard worker." ”

After discussing the matter, Li Di did not stay in Guazhou any longer, he called a few men, escorted him, sat in an ox cart, and rushed to Yangguan.

Shortly after Li Di left Guazhou.

The Black Khan King Yu Sufu and Xiao were two rivals, and led the soldiers and horses to the city of Guazhou.

In the battle of Qiqitaizi Mountain outside Guazhou City, Chong Shiheng ruthlessly pitted the black sweat king Yu Sufu again.

The Black Khan soldiers were in Qiqitaizi Mountain, but there were not many dead and wounded, not more than 10,000.

But more than 40,000 people were injured.

In the three battles before and after, more than 100,000 wounded soldiers were added to the Black Khan military camp.

The Black Khan cavalry, all light cavalry, was very mobile.

However, after more than 100,000 wounded soldiers dragged their feet, the speed slowed down.

Of the more than 100,000 wounded soldiers, most of them were temporarily incapacitated.

They couldn't do anything but recuperate from their wounds.

If it weren't for some rumors that have recently emerged in the army, saying that Kou Ji, the privy envoy of the Song State, was a divine envoy left by the gods in the east, and the Black Khan King Yu Sufu was afraid that abandoning the wounded soldiers would cause changes in the army, causing the soldiers and horses to mutiniate and surrender to the enemy, he would have thrown the wounded soldiers aside and left them to fend for themselves in accordance with his previous combat style.

The Black Khan King Yusufu had no way to leave behind the wounded soldiers, so he could only carry these burdens to the battlefield.

The feeling of being dragged down by the burden really made him feel uncomfortable.

Therefore, after he led his army to Guazhou City, he launched a fierce attack on Guazhou City.

He blamed all the faults on the Song people.

He wants to make the Song people bear all his anger.

The battle of Guazhou City lasted for a full day.

In the end, it ended with Chong Shiheng retreating with his soldiers and horses.

This is followed by the stump beach, seven ditches, and Suoyang City.

Chong Shiheng has made the most of the complex topography in Guazhou.

In this way, the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty were frantically consumed.

Just when Chong Shiheng was crazy about consuming the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty.

Kou Ji in Yangguan suddenly received a letter.

There was no signature on the letter, but the person who sent it, Kou Ji, knew him.

Kou Ji asked the messenger to sit on the side of the room and pour his own tea, he opened the letter and read it roughly.

Then he put down the letter with a strange face and sighed heartily.

"Kakuro is really smart."

"Young Master, are you satirizing Jiaoluo?"

The man who was pouring himself a drink put down his teacup and asked with a smile as he stared at Kou Ji.

Kou Ji glanced at him, "Do you know the contents of the letter?" ”

The man smiled, "Jiao Guluo sent a large number of people into our Yuanshan City with great fanfare and sent a lot of things to the leader of Yuanshan. Among them are sixteen beauties.

The leader of Wonsan gave one to the villain.

When the villain tossed the little beauty, she asked casually, and she said everything. ”

Kou Ji glared at the man and muttered, "A woman who was given out as a gift knows the news, and it seems that Jiao Guluo has no intention of hiding it at all. ”

The man smiled and the thief smiled, "The horned guy Luo Na actually invited our brother to deal with you young master, I don't know what he thinks." Isn't he afraid that our brother will agree to him first, and then stab him in the back when he sends out the army? ”

Kou Ji said indifferently: "He doesn't know the relationship between us, so he invited Yuanshan to deal with the Great Song Dynasty together." After all, the Great Song Dynasty is now facing the enemy on both sides, and if there are two more strong enemies, it is very likely that they will fall into a catastrophe.

If Yuanshan is really a pure native of the Western Regions, he will definitely not let go of this opportunity to sit big. ”

The man was stunned when he heard this, and said suspiciously: "Young master, according to what you said, if Yuanshan really joins hands with Jiao Guluo to deal with the Great Song, the Great Song is very likely to be defeated." ”

Kou Ji glanced at the man, "Do you think someone can make a big wave in my hands?" ”

The man smiled dryly, "Then what if you don't interfere, young master." ”

Kou Ji sighed: "That Great Song may have to lose half of the country. ”

The man's eyes rolled, he glanced left and right, and said in a low voice: "If you want a lot of masters, you will sit on that half of the country?" ”

Speaking of this, the man's face turned straight, patted his chest and said, "Brothers, just recognize you, young master." As long as you open your mouth, young master, even if the brothers are all killed in battle, they will help you take that half of the country. ”

Kou Ji narrowed his eyes slightly, "Is this what you mean, or is that what all of you mean?" ”

The man smiled and said, "Brothers, all of you mean." ”

Kou Ji glared at the man, "Don't say this kind of nonsense in front of me in the future, otherwise I will kill you." Go back and tell the other brothers to put out this thought.

If you really want me to sit on the country, then you should go out and grab a country for me to sit on.

And not in the nest. ”

The man was stunned.

Kou Ji continued, "What you just said is a good idea. You go back and tell Zhang Yuan and ask him to agree to Jiao Guluo. When you go out together, you will go behind your back and give the horns a hard blow.

I'll tell you exactly where to hit when the time comes. ”

"Got it! Master! ”

"Get out!"

"Okay, young master!"

The man smiled and exited the room.

Kou Ji casually threw the letter sent by Zhang Yuan into the brazier, squinting slightly.

"One by one, I have been outside for a long time, and I am used to making my own decisions, and I am not afraid of the imperial power. If you persuade me to sit in the country, I dare to say it, and the day of the yellow robe is probably not far away.

After the destruction of Qingtang this time, they have to change places.

Otherwise, if they really put the yellow robe on me, it would be a great fun. ”

Kou Ji rubbed his eyebrows, feeling a little headache.

Kou Ji was not surprised that the man said this.

If you have lived under the imperial power for a long time, you will be deterred by the imperial power and be cautious in your words and deeds.

broke away from the imperial power, occupied the mountains one by one, and became the masters of their own houses.

Naturally, there was not much reverence for imperial power in my heart.

In their hearts, inviting their boss to sit on the throne is no different from inviting their boss to sit on the throne.

"I'm afraid it's about the same over there...... Cao Yu can be regarded as having close contact with the imperial power, and knows that the imperial power is like that......"
