Lu Chengyu listened to Grandpa Huo's four people talk about what happened, and looked at the six people of Hongyun who were standing on the side: "Miss Hongyun, did you not see any trace of the Liao soldiers when the six of you came?" ”

Lu Chengyu's question was a little inexplicable, and when the six people of Hongyun rushed to report the news, they didn't see the Liao army; But Liu Min took precautions to let them come.

Hongyun was stunned for a moment and said softly: "The horse is not wrong, the six of us have not seen any trace of the Khitan Tartar, but Miss Min she has seen it!" We have come to report to you on the orders of Miss Min! ”

After Hongyun said this, he paused and corrected: "Miss Min doesn't seem to see the figure of the Tartar soldier clearly!" It's just that she and the eldest prince were racing horses on the riverbank, and saw the figures swaying in the reeds; It was immediately deduced that it was not a good bird, and not far in front of it was Fenghe Cang; I can't figure out whether it was the Liao soldiers or the Xia army who lurked in to sabotage, so I asked Grandpa Liang Ding, Huo Buffalo, Wang Yang, and Zhao Ji to rush to Fenghe Cang to report the news, and let Hongyun 6 people rush to report to the horse master! ”

Grandpa Huo sighed and picked up Hongyun's words: "Miss Min is prescient, when the six people of Hongyun rushed to Master Ma's side, it was not determined whether it was the Liao army in the reeds; But the movement of the figure is a fact, so that the horse master led the Tianxiang army to outflank from the north! ”

After a pause, he swallowed his throat and said: "The next facts prove that Miss Min's inference is completely accurate, after Zheng Da rushed to explain the atrocities of the Khitan Tatars of the Liao State on the Tianzhu Ridge, Miss Minzi planned to cremate these beasts; Only then did the old four people chase after the six people of Hongyun to change the first set of plans in advance! ”

Lu Chengyu sighed and sighed with emotion: "Aunt Min really has Zhang Liang's talent, Zhuge is a strategy, my generation can hardly compare!" ”

Lu Chengyu said and stared at Grandpa Huo and asked, "Who did Daddy Fire mention Zheng Da?" ”

"Zheng Da is a herdsman at the Tianzhuling Horse Farm!" Chen Yiyu answered Lu Chengyu's question on behalf of Grandpa Huo: "Zheng Da was at the scene when Xiao Tzuyong, the leader of the Liao army, killed 33 people of Zhao Wenchen, the branch official of Jingzhao Mansion, in Tianzhu Ridge!" ”

Lai Zhenyue corrected Chen Yiyun's words and said: "Zheng Da was also caught by the Khitan Tartars, and the enemy chief Xiao Tzuyong asked him to be a guide so that he was not killed; Zheng Dacai witnessed the atrocities of the Tartar soldiers! ”

Tu Youmei empathized and said: "Zheng Da was forced by Xiao Tzuyong to be a guide for the Liao army, Xiao Tzuyong asked him to bring the Tartar soldiers to Fenghe Cang, but Zheng Da led the Tartar soldiers into the reeds!" ”

Grandpa Huo finally summarized: "Zheng Da took the opportunity to escape after taking the Tartar soldiers into the reeds, but was discovered by Liu Min, and he told the truth of the matter!" ”

Grandpa Huo said with an excited expression: "Now that Aunt Min and the eldest prince are leading the Tartar soldiers to the ditch, Master Ma must act quickly to rush over to ambush!" ”

After listening to the story of Grandpa Huo's four people, Lu Chengyu frowned and wanted to give an order to Wen Tongxiao not far in front, but he didn't know the specific location of the ditch; So he asked Grandpa Huo: "Daddy Fire knows which direction the ditch is in!" ”

"Piercing the hall ditch is in the southwest direction where we gather the river!" Huo Renfu said bluntly.

Lu Chengyu was stunned, stared at Grandpa Huo and said, "Where exactly is the Xianghe River where you gathered?" ”

"This ...... This ......" Grandpa Huo said in his mouth.

Chen Yiyun picked up and said, "The place where we gathered is not far from Fenghe Cang!" ”

"Not far from Fenghe Cang, where is it!" Lu Chengyu asked.

Chen Yiyun couldn't answer, and Grandpa Huo suddenly laughed loudly: "A living person can suffocate urine to death, and we won't ask the local folks; This place is not far from the ditch! ”

Grandpa Huo pointed his finger to the fellow who was carrying a bucket and carrying a clay pot to bring water and food to the army: "Look, there are a lot of fellow villagers over there; Let's go over and ask if it's clear at a glance! ”

As he spoke, Grandpa Fire strode towards a few men carrying buckets and clay pots; People in their sixties are still like a whirlwind.

Grandpa Huo rushed towards the villager who was carrying the canister with a whirlwind, and shouted before he could get ahead: "The township party is really hard to send water and soup to the army!" ”

A few men who carried the burden were followed by a man in his 50s, who saw Grandpa Huo speaking politely in a military uniform; hurriedly greeted him and bowed and said: "The old army does not need to be polite, the army and the people are united as one, try to see who can be the enemy in the world!" The army marched forward to kill the enemy, and it was right for us ordinary people to send water and soup! ”

The man said that he came to meet the fire grandfather, and when he came to him, he introduced himself: "Xiaomin Liu Duozhe, he is Baozheng in the river; A few days ago, I received an order from the county government that the imperial army should pass through the North Straight Road; I organized the villagers to send some soup to quench the thirst of the soldiers! ”

Grandpa Huo saw that Liu Duozhe spoke crownly, and said with a smile: "Liu Bao is kind and good, and he is a good grassroots of the Great Song Dynasty!" ”

Grandpa Huo raised his voice as he spoke, "Liu Baozheng knows where to go through the hall?" ”

"Piercing the ditch!" Liu Duozhe asked rhetorically: "I know!" The ditch is on the south bank of the Xiang River, and we are here on the north bank of the Xiang River; The two places are separated by more than ten miles; The old soldier asked what he was doing in the ditch! ”

As soon as Liu Duozhe's voice fell, he saw more than a dozen people coming over to Lu Chengyu.

Grandpa Huo introduced to Lu Chengyu: "Master Horse, this man is the local Liu Baozheng!" ”

turned to Liu Duozhe and said: "Baozheng Xianggong, this is Lord Lu, the envoy of the expedition to the west!" ”

Lu Chengyu stepped forward to salute Liu Duozhe, Liu Duozhe was so panicked that he didn't know what to do, and said three times: "The master of the horse has arrived, and Liu Duozhe has been welcoming him for a long time!" ”

Lu Chengyu smiled and said, "Guarantee Xianggong, Grandpa Huo has already explained to you that the army is going to go through the hall ditch on business; I also hope that the public will choose someone to lead the way, and there is a little request to hope that the public will be successful! ”

Liu Duozhe said with trepidation: "It is the duty of the small people to serve the imperial army, and if you have any orders, just tell them!" ”

Lu Chengyu saw that Liu Duozhe was not a treacherous person, so he killed 33 Jingzhao Prefecture branch officials in the Tianzhuling Horse Farm by the Khitan Tartars of the Liao State; I also want to tell about the conspiracy to attack Fenghe Cang, Fengyu Cang, and Fengyu Cang.

Liu Duozhe was shocked, and Lu Chengyu fixed his mind and said: "The imperial army is ready to follow the example of Zhuge Wuhou to burn the Khitan Tartar in Chuantanggou, and I also hope that Baozheng Xianggong will collect ten cars of burning wheat straw for use; Collect wheat straw, firewood and grass, and give the army money together! ”

Liu Duozhe heard Lu Chengyu say this, and said impassionedly: "It's a bit out of sight for General Ma to say this, how much can ten carts of wheat straw be worth?" Don't let the army pay, Xiaomin immediately collected more than a dozen carts of wheat straw firewood and grass to move forward with the army! ”

Lu Chengyu thanked Liu Baozheng and rushed to Tianxiangjun to explain the reason to Wen Tongxiao; Wen Tongxiao temporarily cut off the railway: "Miss Min is really a general, we will resolutely follow her deployment!" ”

Liu Xinyi, Zhang Wenhan, Chen Shengjie, and Zhang Zhiping's nephews and uncles who were standing on the side saw Lu Chengyu say this, and his uncle Chen Shengjie couldn't help but ask: "Who is Miss Min that Master Ma said, why haven't we heard of it!" ”

After Chen Shengjie finished the above sentence, he fixed his mind: "Where is General Caofu Xin now, and there is still the head of the Yan Jin Dao Sect; Ever since we broke up with us in the river road, why have you disappeared! ”

Lu Chengyu saw that things had developed to this point, so he didn't want to hide the truth anymore; Sweeping his gaze to Chen Shengjie, Liu Xinyi, Zhang Wenhan, and Zhang Zhiping: "The four of you nephews still don't know the true identities of Caofu Xin and Yan Jindao, which means that we have done a very good job of secrecy!" ”

Lu Chengyu said solemnly: "Until now, the four generals can no longer be hidden, and I will tell you that Miss Min is the head of the Yan Golden Knife Sect; He taught the crossbow machine to Tianxiang Army in the Bianjing military camp, and the soldiers thought she was a male general; But a goddess! ”

Chen Shengjie's four nephews and uncles couldn't help but be dumbfounded when they saw Lu Chengyu say this; Zhang Wenhan was shocked and said: "The head of the Yan sect is a woman, how can it be possible!" ”

Wen Tongxiao interjected on the side and said, "It seems that Miss Min's disguise technique has deceived the entire Tianxiang Army!" ”

Wen Tongxiao raised his eyebrows as he said and said: "The identity of the golden knife has not been judged by the four of your nephews, and the identity of Caofu Xin may not be known!" ”

"What is the identity of Cao Fu Xin?" Chen Shengjie asked in surprise: "Isn't Caofu Xin the four-rank strong general brought back from Yanmen Pass?" ”

Lu Chengyu laughed loudly and said, "Caofu Xin is the current emperor's crown prince Zhao Yuanzuo!" ”

"Crown Prince Zhao Yuanzuo!" Liu Xinyi hurriedly said: "There have long been rumors in the army that the prince is crazy and has set fire to the palace; The emperor had no choice but to depose him, how could he ......"

Lu Chengyu pondered for a while and said: "We don't go into the affairs of the palace, but the crown prince is not crazy, he was deposed by the emperor and asked Ying to kill the enemy; Because he worshiped Xue Rengui, the prince of Pingyang County of the Tang Dynasty, he took apart the Xue character and called it Caofu Xin! ”

"I see!" Chen Shengjie said excitedly: "So we are working as guards for the prince these days? Worth! Worth! ”

After Lu Chengyu revealed the true identities of Zhao Yuanzuo and Liu Min, he gave the troops the task of rushing to kill the Liao army through Tanggou.

The Tianxiang army turned around and drove south under the leadership of three people, Lizheng and Liu Duozhe in the river; The more than 100 carriages transporting medicinal materials, weapons, and military supplies did not move, and under the escort of the soldiers led by the quartermaster Zheng Zichen, they headed westward, aiming at Fengxiang Mansion.

When the Tianxiang army marched towards the Xianghechuan Road, more than a dozen carts of wheat straw raised by Liu Duozhe had already taken the lead to go to Chuantanggou.

Liu Duozhe introduced Lu Chengyu to the topography and landform of Xiangheli, Tianzhuling Horse Farm, and Chuantanggou as he walked.

The river is not very far from the ditch, from the west of the Tianzhu Ridge horse farm down the north plain, cross the stone arch bridge to the south is the ditch.

Lu Chengyu stood on the bank of the ditch and looked at it a few times, and said to Wen Tongxiao beside him: "Aunt Min is really a genius, how do you know that there is a way through the ditch in this place!" ”。

Wen Tongxiao laughed and said: "Otherwise, how can I say that women don't let me shave my eyebrows, Liu Min, our shaved eyebrows, can't catch up even if we take off our shoes!" Her goddess has seen a lot, and such terrain has long been under control! ”

Lu Chengyu sighed with emotion and said: "Arrange it immediately, let 800 sergeants ambush on both sides of the ditch, and send troops to guard the head and tail of the ditch; As soon as Miss Min and the crown prince introduce the Khitan Tartars into the ambush circle, we will show our skills......"
