"I'll ...... you with just twenty horsemen," Gu Lulu's face was full of horror. For he could not have imagined what kind of bravery it would be to command twenty horsemen to attack ten times as many enemies......

But the problem in front of them now is that no matter how brave the Song army is, they will have to delay the Song army for a few more days.

So, what should they do?

Continuing the original strategy and pretending to be a Gobi bandit?

Joke.

That horse bandit still dared to fight with the Song people after experiencing this kind of thing?

"Destroy the water source, big brother." The gauze on Ah Si's chest was still oozing bright red, and Doros, the cousin, was killed in front of his eyes, but Ah Si had no idea of avenging his cousin.

There was a hint of struggle on Gu Lulu's face, but when his eyes swept over the faces of the other people, all he saw was bowing his head and saying nothing, a gloom suddenly filled his chest.

"Just do it."

This is also in line with the characteristics of the horse bandits, who are fierce and timid, and who must be retribution.

I don't dare to you again, but I won't make you better!

And thanks to Gu Lulu's decisive actions, such behavior did not arouse the slightest suspicion of Song Jun.

There are sand thieves and horse bandits in Guazhou, Shazhou and Gaochang, which is a well-known thing.

In the past, it was the party members who controlled the Hexi Corridor, and the connection between Gaochang and the Central Plains was far less smooth than it is now, which also made the price of silk and other goods in the Central Plains more expensive in Central Asia and more expensive in Gaochang. Naturally, a ** thief was born.

From ancient times to the present, it has never been cut off.

And their character is what Gu Lulu thinks - they are fierce and timid, and they will be repaid!

Because they are looking for money!

Many water sources along the way were destroyed, which slowed down the Song army's forward speed a lot, and more importantly, it would also affect the follow-up Song army.

But no matter how delayed it is, the Song army's forward will eventually have the moment when it reaches the outside of Yizhou City.

Lu Sheng did not receive a reply from Bileco, and his choice was just as he had said before, unceremoniously offering his knees to the Song army who came from afar.

Bone Rou!

This enemy of the Song army, who also led his men and horses to destroy the water source a few days ago, turned into a guide for Yizhou to meet the advance of the Song army.

It couldn't be more ironic.

But all the 'different voices' have been annihilated by the rolling yellow sand, haven't they?

In their eyes, these Central Plains Han children were not enemies who violated their rights and interests at all, but a guarantee to protect their own rights and interests.

The Uighurs were originally vassals of Li Tang, but now they are under the command of Zhao Song, and they have only returned to their hometown.

And as soon as Yizhou was so broken, Gaochang City was leaked in front of the eyes of the Song people.

Although the city of Gaochang was in the heart of the Uighur territory, and Yizhou was the eastern gate of the Uighurs, the reality was so cruel.

When Yizhou is 'broken', the Song army will be able to attack Gaochang City.

Because in the seven or eight hundred places between Gaochang City and Yizhou, there is no city of the scale of the second Yizhou.

Whether it is the Guigukou Shelter Station, or Sawada Temple or Baozhuang, it can only be regarded as a small town and a small stronghold, and it is far from being an important town.

After receiving the documents from Yizhou, Brother Biler angrily scolded Lu Sheng for being shameless, but he didn't want to think about whether he was also very tasteless.

And no matter how much Brother Bile curses, the vanguard of the Song Army's horse army will still approach Gaochang City one day.

Baozhuang is the Shanshan of later generations. In the sixth year of Taiping Xingguo (981), Wang Yande sent an envoy to Gaochang and went from Guigukou to the Sawada Temple. When Gaochang heard about it, he sent people to greet him, and the place name Baozhuang was borne.

Then at the moment, Liu Zhengyan, who was the vanguard of the army, did not see the minister of Gaochang. Whether it is Shelter Station or Sawada Temple, it is a welcome initiated by the military and civilians.

But in Baozhuang, Liu Zhengyan didn't even see the soldiers and civilians who came to greet him on their own.

The horn sounded, stretching endlessly, and the secret salute standing at the head of the city saw that a red tide seemed to appear outside the city, and the sea water was rushing closely, and the sword armor was cold and cold.

The cavalry was about to arrive at the foot of Baozhuang City.

At this time, no matter how sluggish it was, the soldiers and civilians in the city also rioted. Because the city lord of Baozhuang, Mi Liji, is a well-known Pai Song faction in Gaochang country.

Mi Lizhu could still forcibly calm down, and he looked out at the head of the city, a sea of red, not only the flag, but even the armor was bright red.

In the distance, there are densely packed with red-armored horsemen, connected from end to end, as if people can't see the edge at a glance.

There are huge flags in front of you, which attract attention.

"Liu Zhengyan!"

Many Gaochang civil and military officers know such a person, know that he is the son of Liu Fa, the god general of the Great Song Dynasty, and know even more that he is Yao Youzhong's deputy.

"Hey, so many people. I'm afraid there are tens of thousands of riders, right? ”

They already know the establishment of the Song army, and there are tens of thousands of horses in the command of the generals and banners.

It was the most loyal officer of Mi Liqiu, and when he looked down, all of them were as pale as earth at this time.

How many people are there in Baozhuang?

It seems that at most it was only 2,000 soldiers.

Now there are still 2,000 soldiers on the surface, but in fact, half of them can fight and dare to fight.

"Master, I heard the news that the main forces of the Song people are still behind. A large number of Song troops and baggage are also gathering in Yizhou, they are not only 10,000 in front of them, but 50,000 or 100,000 in the back! ”

Mi Lizhu couldn't say a word. It has been difficult for all ages to die alone, not to mention that this 'one death' is not only his death, but also his entire family, and even all his relatives.

Although the Uighurs have migrated westward for more than 300 years, many people still remember it.

"City Lord, whether it is war or peace, please make a decision as soon as possible!"

"Yes, City Lord! The Song people don't believe in the Buddha, according to their rules, those who don't surrender will be washed, let them attack the city, I'm afraid that they will be ruined! ”

Mi Lizhu clenched his teeth and didn't let go, it's not that he was stubborn, but that he was angry. Because just now he swept his gaze to the soldiers not far away.

He has been in Baozhuang for many years, and the soldiers and generals in the city are all his people, so he should be more single-minded. But now?

What are you doing that is trembling one by one?

And Liu Zhengyan is here, with Wang De, Niu Gao, Xie Yuan and other fierce generals by his side, Xue Guang is assisted, Guo Yongwei joined the army, looking at Baozhuang City not far away, all smiles on his face.

The drawbridge is hung high, the city gate is closed, and the soldiers in the city are all holding bows and crossbows, and there is a tense posture.

"Hehe, it's really like that, it would be better if you didn't shake......" Under the banner, Xue Guang looked up at the city tower in the distance with disdain and let out a sneer.

"Liu Xianggong, should we attack the city immediately?" Wang Dexun asked. There are a lot of fierce generals in the forward army, and he wants to compete for the first place.

Liu Zhengyan said lightly: "Send someone to call the battle, and let Mili curb the city." ”

How could he ever put the Gao Chang soldiers on the other side in his eyes?
