More than half of the casualties of the Khitan warriors are mainly in ambushes, coupled with the terrain, which is not conducive to the deployment of cavalry.

Nearly a thousand Khitan warriors surrendered, so this battle was a complete victory for Yang An'er, he immediately let a thousand Han iron cavalry and Khitan soldiers mix, and these two thousand cavalry slaughtered towards the county seat of Qi County.

Among the Jin army, the highest status was the Jurchens, followed by the Khitans, and the Song army that surrendered was the lowest. Facing the Khitan side calling for the door, the Song army guarding the city opened the door without hesitation.

When the cavalry entered the city gate, Fang Zhen realized that something was wrong, and he ordered the city to be closed, but unfortunately this unlucky ghost was shot to death by Cao Yu.

The rest of the Song army obediently surrendered.

Taking Qi County does not mean a complete victory, but it means that the war really kicked off, and only after the total annihilation of the 5,000 Jin army escorting grain and grass, the battle of Qi County is over.

Qi County is a small county seat, although it is the only way for the Jin army's grain and grass team, but because the county is too small, the large army will not process, and only a part of the Jin army will enter the city to supply supplies, and most of the team will be stationed outside the city.

Qi County is only thirty miles away from Yao County and Hui County, once a Jin army escapes to ask for help, then tens of thousands of Jin troops will come to the rescue, and the surprise attack will become an encounter, then the whole battle will get out of control.

Originally, Yang An'er thought that he could handle it, but after the Battle of Xishuipo, he knew that the two thousand Khitan cavalry were so difficult to deal with, so if he wanted to eat the five thousand Jurchen cavalry, it would be even more difficult.

In order to be able to win the final victory, Yang An'er lowered her posture and personally asked Cao Yu for advice.

Before Cao Yu set out on the expedition, he accepted the guidance of the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty, knew how this battle should be fought in the end, and also knew that Yang An'er would take the initiative to ask him for advice.

Yang An'er is the coach and is also more than ten years older, in this case, Cao Yu did not put up a fight, he said to Yang An'er: "Boss, the core of this battle is how to lead more than 2,000 Jin troops to the city, this has to rely on Xiao Le, if he goes to meet it in person, it is estimated that the Jin army will give face." After all, the grain and grass escorted are to be handed over to the Jin army battalion, and the so-called Qi County supply, to put it bluntly, is to give the Jin army commander Chili Hu benefits, which is the meaning of knowing this, this guy is said to be greedy for money and lustful, and it should be feasible for Xiao Le to ask for it. As long as Xiao Le hinted that the Song army was restless, Chilihu would definitely support the bomb pressure, and the entry of the 2,000 Jin army into the city would be a matter of course. ”

"However, after all, Xiao Le is from Liao, so he surrendered, will he rebel, in that case, if Jin will plan and take Qi County in turn, wouldn't we steal chickens and lose rice, and lose Qi County, you and I will lose our heads."

"Don't worry, no, I have a way to convince Schole. Besides, even if Xiao Le really betrayed, I have enough ways to eat the five thousand Jin Kingdom cavalry, boss, the main thing is that you can ambush in the city, after all, my ten thousand cavalry cannot be stationed in the city, and can only be picked up outside the city. ”

It is impossible to accommodate too many soldiers in the county seat of Qi County, especially the cavalry, it is not easy to accommodate a few thousand, as for not to mention the battle, the cavalry cannot be used in the city at all, which is why Cao Yu insisted on attracting the Jin army to the city.

Of course, this plan was not thought up by Cao Yu himself, it was a plan made by Liu Zhenglong, the son of the Han Dynasty, for this expedition, in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, and at the same time there are 20,000 cavalry on the expedition, 10,000 led by Pan Youhu to attack Yao County, and 10,000 led by Pan Youfeng to attack Hui County, but this plan was not told to Yang An'er, just to let this uncle be able to make war achievements.

Pan Youhu, Pan Youfeng has been fighting with the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty for more than ten years, according to the promotion mechanism of the Han generals, this should be the last expedition, and then he will serve as the local soldier and horse supervisor to guard the side, which is similar to the commander of the local military region in later generations. It can also be regarded as a reward for these generals who have fought for many years, for sure.

In fact, Pan Youhu and Pan Youfeng also know that the reason why they no longer go on the expedition is related to the Pan family in a sense, although the emperor of the Han Dynasty has an alliance with the four major families and will not release the military power with a glass of wine, but everyone knows that even the Han Empire, which was established by military force, does not allow a division similar to that of the feudal towns in the last years of the Tang Empire. It is impossible for military generals to always hold military power, and they must hand over military power at a certain time, which is also conducive to the army to maintain strong combat effectiveness, and also because of the reserve selection of military talents, after all, military academies will have a large number of generals enter the army every year, and the strength of the Han Dynasty lies in the perfect military system, not because of the strength of some commanders.

Pan Youhu, Pan Youfeng was trained by the Pan family, and Pan Xu, who is the head of the Pan family, is the master of the country, and the grace of the Son of Heaven is beyond measure. Pan Xu, who has been cautious all his life, knows that if the moon is full and the water is full, it will overflow, if the four major families try to control the court by controlling the army, it will become a cancer of the court sooner or later, and it is only a matter of time before it is uprooted by His Majesty.

After all, Liu Zhenglong, the son of the Han Dynasty, is a man of two lives, he is a person who is good at telling stories, and tells the story of Zhu Yuanzhang's generation of heroes to the queen Pan Yun, although it is just a small talk between husband and wife, but every word that comes out of the mouth of the Son of Heaven must be interpreted by the people below, and the queen is no exception.

Empress Pan Yun knew that Her Majesty was dissatisfied with the vain attempt of the four great families to control the army, and she also knew that the story was not as simple as small talk, and it was obvious that the ending of the founding fathers in the story was actually the fate of the four major families.

Especially in the Shi Zhenqi incident some time ago, on the surface, it made His Majesty very passive, but in fact it was tantamount to burning the four major families in the fire, and the newspapers in the Han Empire were overwhelmingly serialized.

In the Han Empire, the sky is not afraid, the earth is not afraid, just afraid of the shadow to interrogate, no matter how big the official position, as long as it is in, no matter how private things can be obediently spit out, I saw that anyone entered the shadow, but I never saw anyone come out.

The most terrible thing is that the shadow is only responsible for His Majesty, and the search, trial, and execution do not go through the Ministry of Justice, and they are directly convicted and executed, and even the plea is omitted, because you can't find the clerk in the shadow at all.

Queen Pan Yun summoned the national ruler Pan Xu, and the two discussed for a long time, and it is said that there was a fierce quarrel between the father and daughter, but what happened is unknown to the outside world. The only change is that the military generals of the Pan family successively surrendered their military powers, and chose to serve as military and horse supervisors in the local area, served in the general staff, and some served as civilian officials.

The only thing that the Pan family retains is Pan Feng, the commander of the palace capital, in charge of the 50,000 dragon guards, responsible for guarding the imperial city, this position, the Pan family will not give up no matter what, the key is that His Majesty is not at ease to hand over the safety of the imperial city to others.

Although it was the last expedition, Pan Youhu and Pan Youfeng still went all out to make military achievements, and they could go to the local place to serve as the supervisor of soldiers and horses.

Yang An'er didn't know the layout of the Son of Heaven, and was always worried that Yaoxian and Huixian's Jin army would come to help, so she was skeptical of Cao Yu's plan in this case.

Yang An'er was extremely distrustful of Xiao Le, and he said to Cao Yu: "If you are not of my race, you must have different intentions, is it too risky to choose Xiao Le to persuade Chili Tiger to enter the city?" ”

"We don't have a better candidate, and only Xiao Le can convince Chilihu. There are 10,000 of my Han iron cavalry outside the city, and even if Xiao Le betrays, I am sure enough to destroy this 5,000 gold army. At this time, Cao Yu's face showed a domineering spirit, and he said domineeringly: "The Han Iron Cavalry has maintained a complete victory in the history of encountering the Jin cavalry, and in every battle, the casualties of the Jin army far exceed that of our army. Besides, this time we are 10,000 iron cavalry, and we can definitely easily destroy the baggage troops of the Jin Kingdom. Now the main thing is, how do you complete the layout in the city, after all, it is not easy to hunt two thousand gold troops in the city. Once the four gates of the city are defeated and closed, we will be cut by the Jin army, and at that time, we will be very careful, and this battle will definitely be lost. ”

"Okay, then let's divide the labor and go to the Executive Board, as long as the Jin Army has 2,000 cavalry into the city, I will guarantee that they will not come back, and after they come in, they will definitely not be able to get out."

What Cao Yu wanted was Yang An'er's words, and he said: "I'll talk to Xiao Le in person to ensure that nothing goes wrong." ”

After surrendering, Xiao Le was really conflicted in his heart, he was unwilling to surrender, he preferred to go to Xiliao, but unfortunately he was now a prisoner, where was there still a choice.

Cao Yu sent someone to invite Xiao Le over.

"Xiao Le, the general of the defeated army, has seen the general."

"General Xiao, I'm too modest, I invited you here today, I just want to ask what your future plans are, if you are not willing to fight for the Han Dynasty, General Ben will definitely not be reluctant."

Cao Yu could guess what Xiao Le was thinking in his heart, and he said with a smile: "Virtuous Lady Xiao Pu, Yelu Pu is finished, they are all in the Han Palace, and they have already given birth to a prince for Your Majesty." Xiao Gan, Yelu Mawu, Xiao Hulira, Yelu Yilie, etc. are all serving in the Han Dynasty, I believe that if you are in the Han army, you can also make good contributions. Of course, if you want to go to Western Liao, then follow Yelu Yilie to Western Liao in a few years. ”

Xiao Le smiled bitterly, he understood that the current Han Empire was like the Liao Empire before, it was so powerful that it was extremely confident, and he didn't take the Jin Kingdom in his eyes at all.

After pondering for a long time, Xiao Le said: "I have a plan to help the general break the Jin army, I hope that after the matter is completed, I will be allowed to go west with a thousand soldiers under my command, we don't want to fight anymore, we just want to go to Xiliao and the people to live a stable life." ”

"Deal, I will report to Your Majesty, give you 50,000 taels of silver, 10,000 pieces of silk, and 1,000 stone of silk to give away, and the Han will prepare customs clearance documents for you."

The heroes are slightly the same, Xiao Le's plan is similar to Cao Yu's plan, the difference is in some details, there is no doubt that Xiao Le's plan is more operable and less difficult to implement.

Cao Yu asked Xiao Le to let go and do it, he actively deployed it himself, of course, in order to prevent changes, he detained the thousand Khitan warriors, and once Xiao Le betrayed, then kill the thousand Khitan warriors.

Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.

After everything was arranged, Cao Yu began to wait for Jin Jun to enter the trap. At noon on the third day, the cavalry of the two thousand Jin Kingdom entered the county seat of Qixian County.

What kind of fierce battle will take place in the county seat of Qi County, this is not a matter for Cao Yu to consider, what he has to do is to kill all the remaining 3,000 Jin State cavalry, and at the same time monitor the changes in the county seat of Qi County at any time.

Xiao Le personally welcomed the two thousand Jin State cavalry under the command of Chili Hu Ji into the city.

Chilihu is a drunken guy, Xiao Le deliberately prepared a lot of good wine, he personally came to accompany Chilihu to drink, as for the task of hunting two thousand Jinguo cavalry, he handed it over to Yang An'er.

This time, it can be said that it is a turtle in an urn, if you can't take the two thousand gold army in this case, Yang An'er should soak herself in urine and drown herself.

There were more than 10,000 rebel troops in the city, and it can be said that they occupied all the fortresses in the city, and the archers accounted for 70 percent, that is, they wanted to shoot these golden troops cruelly.

The two thousand Jin troops entered the barracks in the north corner of the city, although they entered the city, but the soldiers of the Jin army were heavily guarded, and this vigilance was even stronger than that of the Han army, which was definitely not comparable to the Song army.

Yang An'er personally led 8,000 soldiers to chase the barracks from all sides, he personally led 2,000 soldiers to forcibly attack from the main gate, Guo Fangsan led 1,500 soldiers to occupy the north courtyard wall, Li Daniu led 1,500 soldiers to occupy the west courtyard wall, and Chen Qianhe led 1,500 soldiers to occupy the east courtyard wall. Jiang Zhihai led 1,500 soldiers to shoot bows and arrows to ensure that the barracks could be blocked.

In fact, Yang An'er was still conservative in his bones, for fear that the Jin army would eventually rush out, which is why he did not dare to press the whole army, and the remaining army occupied various fortresses in the city to ensure that there would be no deviation in this hunt.

On the third watch, with the sound of a cannon, 10,000 Han iron cavalry outside the city launched a surprise attack on the 3,000 Jin cavalry from all sides, and at the same time, there were 1,000 Khitan warriors and 3,000 Han infantry to participate in the battle.

The sound of the cannon was also a signal for the start of war in the city, and Chi Lihu, who was drinking, noticed that something was wrong, and he pulled out of his body, but he didn't expect that as soon as he reached the door, a wooden stick hit the guy's knee hard.

If it was on weekdays, Chili Tiger would definitely be able to dodge, but he was drunk today and didn't see the ambush in the dark corner at all, and his knee was broken all of a sudden, and this guy fell to the ground heavily.

At this moment, more than a dozen soldiers rushed over, waving wooden sticks and hitting Chili Tiger like a storm.

Xiao Le walked out slowly, he looked at the beaten bloody Chili Tiger and said, "Cut off this guy's head and send it to General Yang." ”
