Chapter 272: Hunt and Kill (10)

Seeing that the Lord was about to shout, the minions rushed up and surrounded Grandpa Fire again, but the Pu knife in Grandpa Huo's hand opened the bow left and right; The soldiers who killed the Imperial City Division will be staggered.

Gong Huangxing's pig-killing knife is to chop winter melon on the left and stab the lotus flower on the right; The three-strand fork in Jing Huijing's hand is fleshy, where can Lan Caihe's subordinates resist it.

Grandpa Huo's kung fu is "Xue Li Divine Arm" and "Broad Bean Sleeve Stone", but these two kung fu are both hard and dark; In order to block the water and come to Tutun, Grandpa Huo specially prepared a long-handled Pu knife for himself.

Grandpa Huo doesn't know how to use swords, but he has the foundation of "Xue Li's Divine Arm" as support; Pu Dao swung the windmill round, and the soldiers of the imperial city collided with either broken arms or broken legs.

Where had Lan Caihe seen such a lifeless slave, holding the green snake sword in his hand and wanting to come forward to fight, but he didn't have the guts, so he had to watch his subordinates being cut down.

At the last moment, the eunuch Wang Jien led more than 100 forbidden troops to arrive, and the three of Grandpa Huo suddenly became turtles in the urn.

Wang Jien and Lan Cai and the two groups of people He Wei knocked Grandpa Huo, Gong Huangxing, and Jing Huijing to the ground and tied them up.

Jiang Qing talked about this place, and Song Taizong asked again: "So you just caught the old bangzi, killed the pig woman, and the fat woman, and never saw the demon girl Liu Min!" ”

"Yes, Holy One!" Jiang Qingcheng said in fear: "As soon as we arrived at Xiangwang's Mansion, we fought with these three people, Liu Min is bare-faced and numb-faced, we haven't seen it at all!" ”

Li Xin stepped forward and said: "Holy Shengming, the third prince has already said before, Liu Min was invited into the mansion and performed a "Tuoba Dance", "Ni Dress and Feather Dance", and "Gongsun Auntie Sword Dance" and sent out of the mansion? ”

Zhao Heng was secretly happy in his heart when he saw that the teacher was covering for him, but Mrs. Qin Guo, the nurse, and Li Xin, the teacher, were completely two types of people.

Mrs. Qin's strict education of Zhao Heng since she was a child made the three princes remember it in their hearts, but at the critical moment, they went to their father to complain; It made Zhao Heng feel disgusted with Mrs. Qin Guo.

Is this weird? This is not surprising! Isn't it clear who a person chooses in front of his lover and mother? What's more, Mrs. Qin Guo is Zhao Heng's nurse, and Liu Min is the love of his life.

Zhao Heng and Liu Min's love can be described as love at first sight, but Liu Min seems to have understood it for a long time; Her life is pinned on Zhao Heng, the future emperor.

Seeing Li Xin say this, the black fat man asked Jiang Qing again: "Since you have captured Lao Bangzi, killed the pig woman, and the fat woman, then how did Lan Caihe be killed; And the prince was also seriously injured! ”

"Enlighten the Holy Lord!" Jiang Qing said excitedly: "Chief Lan led the soldiers of our Imperial City Division to arrest Grandpa Huo, Gong Huangxing, and Jing Huijing with the cooperation of the forbidden army led by Wang Gonggong and left the Xiangwang Mansion, and when he walked in front of the black pine forest, he saw three faΓ§ade people rushing down from under the big tree, and the three masked people were more powerful than Grandpa Huo and Gong Niangniang!" A masked man was agile, and after flying down from the tree, he used the sword in his hand to stab the blue chief manager's life, stabbing with one sword and another sword, and the result was name! ”

Jiang Qing paused as he spoke, and then said, "It seems that the prince was seriously injured by another masked man!" The masked man's goal is very clear, kill Manager Lan, stab the prince and save Grandpa Huo, aunt, and Jing Huijing and disappear into the black pine forest......"

After Jiang Qing finished talking about Lan Caihe's assassination, the black fat man swept his gaze to the minister standing under the Dan Pier and said, "All Aiqing want to think about who the assassin is, why do you want to attack Lan Caihe......

Naturally, there was no next word in this statement, and the black fat man saw that none of the ministers spoke; Angry blowing beard and glaring.

The atmosphere in the vertical arch hall was very tense, and when he was at the last moment, he suddenly heard the door control report: "Appease and dispose of Lu Chengyu to repay the victory!" ”

The black fat man heard the access control sing "Appease and dispose of Lu Chengyu to report success", Huo Di bounced up from the dragon chair and said to the eunuch Zhou Shaozong beside him: "Zhou Qing, go and see, is it Lu Chengyu rushed back from Yanmen Pass!" ”

Zhou Shaozong took the little eunuch Duan Li and ran to the door of the main hall, only to see Lu Chengyu, the deputy envoy of the pacification and disposal, Wen Tongxiao, and the 11 generals under his command: Lei Ke, Yun Ye, Yu Bo, Yang Yiyi, Liang Ding, Chen Yiyun, Tu Youmei, Lai Zhenyue, Jiang Mengjun, Guo Yuquan, Wang Renqing and 300 horse soldiers, escorted the captured Liao generals Li Chonghai, Xiao Tzu Aisong and ten Liao prisoners, holding the head of Xiao Lu Li, the Liao State Commander; At the same time, the coffins of the two generals Ma Xiao and Gongzi Jian stood outside the hall.

Zhao Shaozong stepped forward to ask about the situation, and rushed back to the vertical arch hall to report to Zhao Guangyi.

After listening to the eunuch's report, a comforting smile suddenly appeared on the black fat man's gloomy face; Hurriedly said to Zhao Shaozong: "Quickly pass the envoy Lu Zhi, the envoy Wen Zhi and the generals into the palace!" ”

After the black fat man said this, he suddenly said, "No! I want to personally greet Lu Zhi and Wen Zhi at the gate of the main hall! ”

The black fat man walked down from the dan qi and walked towards the door of the vertical arch hall, and Lu Duoxun and the minister of civil and military affairs followed him.

Lu Chengyu saw the emperor walking out of the vertical arch hall, and hurriedly stepped forward with Wen Tongxiao to give a salute; shouted in his mouth: "Weichen Lu Chengyu - Wen Tongxiao sacrifices prisoners to the imperial court!" Long live the emperor! ”

Lu Chengyu and Wen Tongxiao shouted out the sentence of offering prisoners, exhaled the words of long live the emperor, and made Song Taizong Long Yan Daxin; The black fat man stepped forward and grabbed Lu Chengyu with one hand, and grabbed Wen Tongxiao with the other, laughing loudly.

Lu Chengyu asked the guards to push the Liao generals Li Chonghai, Xiao Tzu Aisong and ten captives forward, and presented the head of Xiao Duli, the Liao horse.

Song Taizong looked at the head of the Liao army prisoner and the concubine Xiao Duli, laughed even louder, and said: "The first time to open the world!" Lu Wen Erqing and Yang Lao made great contributions to the imperial court; The battle of Yanmen Pass completely defeated the arrogance of the Liao State, and the Lone King will reward you heavily! ”

After a pause, he said excitedly: "We will hold a grand ceremony to sacrifice prisoners on a certain day, and now we also invite Lu Wen Erqing to go to the Arch Hall to talk!" ”

Lu Chengyu and Wen Tongxiao, as well as Liang Ding, Lei Ke, Yun Ye, Yu Bo and others entered the palace; Song Taizong asked Lu Chengyu to narrate the victory of Yanmen Pass, which defeated the Liao army, in front of the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs, and Lu Chengyu gushed out:

Lu Chengyu and Wen Tongxiao and their 800 Sichuan troops drove 2,000 war horses to Yanmen Pass, and Yang Ye, who was brave and good at fighting, knelt on the ground excitedly and kowtowed three times in the south.

At this time, the 100,000 troops of the Liao army rushed straight like locusts, and Yang Ye, Lu Chengyu, and Wen Tongxiao did not panic; Instead, he made a profound and meticulous judgment and analysis of the enemy's situation.

Yang Ye is the envoy of the Daizhou Festival, the second-rank member of the imperial court, Lu Chengyu is the pacification envoy and the second-rank member, and Wen Tongxiao is the third-grade member.

Yang Ye's official rank is second-grade, but he is the envoy of the festival, and Lu Chengyu naturally has to obey Yang Ye's arrangement and deployment.

Yang Ye arranged and deployed the strategy and tactics to meet the Liao army, and quickly incorporated the 2,000 war horses sent by Lu Chengyu into the formation.

At that time, Yang Ye's troops had only a few hundred war horses, most of which were infantry; After Lu Chengyu's 2,000 horses were equipped with troops, General Yang immediately selected more than 2,000 sturdy warriors to form a cavalry team, and Ma Xiao, Lei Ke, Yun Ye, Yu Bo, and Gongzijian were used as equestrian instructors to quickly improve combat effectiveness.

Gongzi Jian is an expert in playing horses, and has established meritorious service in training horse troops.

The 2,000-strong horse team took shape after a few days of training, and Yang Ye asked Ma Xiao, Lei Ke, Yun Ye, Yu Bo, and Gongzijian to lead a 400-horse army each to attack from five sides to confuse the Liao army.

Lu Chengyu and Wen Tongxiao led a thousand infantry with bows and arrows to defend the Yanmen Pass; Yang Ye himself led hundreds of cavalry to enter the north entrance of Yanmen Pass from Guannan and insert it behind the Liao army; launched a surprise attack on the Liao army, which was preparing to attack the fortification; As a result, the Liao army was severely damaged.

The news of the defeat at Yanmen Pass reached the ears of Yeluxian of Liaojingzong, and Yeluxian was furious; After regaining its strength, a second attack was launched on Yanmen Pass.

On the one hand, Yeluxian ordered the Liao army in Hebei to start a feint attack on Yanmen Pass, and on the other hand, appointed Xijing Datong Mansion Jiedu envoy, concubine, and Xiao Duli as commander, and led 100,000 ironclad cavalry south to attack Yanmen Pass.

The Liao army was like a bamboo, and the Song army was crushed at the touch of a button along the way; Soon the Liao army forward arrived at Yanmen Pass, the throat of the north, and Yang Ye asked Taiyuan for support to no avail; can only rely on himself and the limited forces under Lu Chengyu's command to fight the enemy.

Fortunately, the 2,000 war horses sent by Lu Chengyu came in handy, and Yang Ye got 2,000 cavalry; The situation was immediately different, he had the same desire with Lu Chengyu and Wen Tongxiao; Win more with less, and attack it by surprise and kill the Liao army unprepared.

There is another point that is more important, that is, Yang Ye does not have the emperor's supervising army by his side; He can command troops in combat with flexibility and mobility.

Yang Ye only had a mere 3,000 troops, which was not at all proportional to the 100,000 iron cavalry of the Liao State; But Yang Ye's tactics are flexible.

In the face of the menacing and powerful Liao army, Yang Ye made full preparations; He has been dealing with the Liao State for decades and knows his opponents very well.

Yang Ye concluded that the Liao army must have been extremely arrogant all the way south without encountering decent resistance along the way, and that there were only a few thousand defenders at Yanmen Pass; The arrogant Liao army must underestimate the enemy, so they decided to take the risk and take the initiative.

If Yang Ye took the initiative to attack, he would no longer be the hundreds of cavalry before; It's more than 2000.

Therefore, Yang Ye asked Lu Chengyu, Wen Tongxiao and several lieutenants to rely on the dangerous terrain and long-range bows and crossbows to resist and delay the Liao army's actions at the front.

He also asked five generals, Ma Xiao, Lei Ke, Yun Ye, Yu Bo, and Gongzi Jian, to lead 400 cavalry to attack and harass the Liao army in five ways.

Yang Ye personally led five teams of elite cavalry, led by a local guide who was familiar with the terrain, to the north of Yanmen Pass, and then launched a surprise attack after returning to the great depth and far rear of the Liao army, and attacked the Liao army with the frontal defenders.

After the tactics were determined, Yang Ye led the elite cavalry to attack, and in order to boost morale, he inspired the majority of soldiers with his firm determination to fear life and death.

In order to show his will, he folded an arrow to show his determination to die on the battlefield rather than turn back.

And immediately left a suicide note and arranged the funeral. Encouraged by the brave actions of the commander, the morale of the Song army was greatly boosted, and they expressed their willingness to fight to the death to resist the strong enemy.

The cavalry in black uniforms covered the sky like dark clouds, rolling in; The peaks, valleys, ravines, fields, streams, and even the sky outside Yanmen Pass are dyed a terrifying iron black!

The black color of death seemed to be able to engulf the projectile Yanmen Pass in an instant, and when the Liao army wielded the sword, the bright light of countless steel knives was like lightning, dispersing the black clouds of death in an instant, bringing white terror.
