The guards looked at the group of summer thieves, although they knew that the opponent was powerful and there were many people, none of them were timid and flinched, but instantly glowed with fighting spirit and fierceness.

They can become Zhao Yue's guards, they are all carefully selected good men, and Zhao Yue has been with him for a long time, and he firmly believes that there is no invincible strong enemy who follows the little master, and there is no difficulty that cannot be overcome, and his heart is full of confidence and courage. Now the time has come to test courage and loyalty, and who will be disgraced.

Zhao Yue nodded slightly with satisfaction and said, "There are sixty or seventy iron harriers in this gang of summer thieves, and they are not easy to deal with. Pay more attention. When sneak attacking, first use the repeater to clean up some good hands, and then use the summer thief's usual drift shot against the Song army to continue to play the advantage of the repeater on the periphery, and strive to destroy as many opponents as possible. Final melee. ”

Zhao Yue said, pointing to the sharp treasure knife in Wang Nianjing's hand and said: "Our group has worked hard to equip the treasure armor and sharp weapons, not to kill the Han people, but to break the iron armor and cut off foreign thieves is the purpose of the strong crossbow treasure knife." ”

Wang Nianjing's eyes were sharp, and he looked at the treasure knife, and held it tighter.

Behind this group of reserve summer thieves, the dragon slayer sword Sun An with three hundred archery masters also made a sneak attack calculation, using the mountains and wild trees and grasses to slowly get closer.

This and the Western Xia Iron Cavalry was a complete surprise for the bandits of Kongtong Mountain.

At the beginning of the year, Sun An avenged his father, broke through the guard team on the street of Fucheng alone, killed his father's dog officer and accomplice on the spot, grabbed the war horse and broke the siege of the officers and soldiers, and quickly rushed out of the city, in order to escape the wanted pursuit of the government, the good brother Qiao Yan did not take refuge in Tianhu, which high-ranking official can take refuge, and the master This is the only hiding place he can choose.

As a result, when he came to Kongtong Mountain, the Taoist scene he saw was the dilapidated and unmanned scene that Qiao Yan saw.

Sun An had nowhere to go, and it was freezing cold, so he had to clean the Taoist temple and barely survive. It's better than freezing in the wilderness or walking around the people and getting caught. No, while hunting, he encountered a group of bandits passing by...... Then he became the owner of this mountain. There is a place to live.

This group of Western Xia iron riders also walked the back word.

In these years, with the spread of Han Confucian culture in Western Xia and became powerful. The upper echelons of Western Xia were filled with cunning Confucian officials who lacked courage and courage, and their military power declined.

King Chage of Jin is a rare strong man in Western Xia, who can write more proficiently, has little ambition, and has no intention of taking the throne.

With him, his elegant and good at playing power but losing the blood and courage of the party and the wild king brother can lead the Western Xia to continue to suppress the Great Song Dynasty.

But Chago's battle deeds have not been dazzling over the years, but this year is different.

In an encounter, the Chage army successfully defeated the Xihe army, and even Liu Fa, the famous general of the Song army, was killed. In the end, it is wonderful to prove the outstanding ability of the strong.

Chago was pleasantly surprised by this unexpected victory, but he did not lose his mind in ecstasy.

During this battle, he realized that the cavalry of the Western Army was developing on a large scale.

In addition, although the divine arm crossbow made by the Great Song Dynasty is limited to the shortage of smelting technology and other auxiliary materials, and is not comparable to that of the Xia State in terms of quality and scale, the Xia army used to rely on this sharp weapon divine crossbow that defeated the Song army is now no longer a secret to the Song army, and it can no longer be used to slaughter the Song army as before.

If the Xia State loses the advantage of mobile, flexible and powerful cavalry, it will fight against a vast country like the Great Song Dynasty. The tragic end of a small country like Xia Guo is predictable.

Brother Cha broke out in a cold sweat because of this.

He took the opportunity to make a decisive decision, and sent Chen Ming, the king's brother, to mobilize 100,000 elite heavy troops to advance fiercely towards the Song Realm from the defensive gap formed by the two border cities lost by the Xihe army.

Of course, his move was not to have an unprecedented decisive battle with the Western Army in the Song Realm.

Kill it. The destruction of the Song Army's horse farm was his fundamental purpose.

The horse farm, which had taken ten years for the Xihe Army to develop, was the first to be looted. The ferocious offensive of the Xia army made the six divisions of the Western Army vigilant, and they brought large armies to intercept them.

Brother Cha saw that it was too risky to attack further. He ordered the army to frantically destroy the Xihe military area and continue to attract reinforcements from the Western Army. Try to evacuate the other Western Army forces, and at the same time secretly send the most elite three iron cavalry. Each team of 2,000 people, led by the most capable heavy generals, each team is equipped with first-class combat effectiveness and reconnaissance and tracking ability of the Iron Harrier 100 people to help, pretending to be the cavalry of the Song Army, one person and two horses, quickly infiltrated the Song Realm to sneak attack and destroy the horse farm of the Western Army.

The leader of this group of iron cavalry is the backbone family of the Western Xia frontier defense, and the best military talent of this generation in the fire family is also in his thirties, just in his teens.

Iron Harrier led the team by Brother Tu Ye and Li Xianshen, both of whom were brave and invincible, and as alert and cunning as beasts.

Li Xianshen's surname is Li, but he has nothing to do with Han blood. He is an authentic party warrior, said to have been raised by wild beasts, and is now directing the battle on the field.

Unlike the other two iron cavalry disguised as sneaking into the Song Realm from the Xihe Military Defense Area, this group of summer thieves sneaked in directly from the border village on this side. The goal is to destroy the largest, the best war horses, and the greatest threat to the Xia army.

This border fortress is a remote village dominated by the Song Hu people, and there was a secret collusion with the Xia army before. This time, he was bought with a lot of money, and he was promised the official position and survival place of Western Xia.

It is also very well calculated.

Sneaking into the Song Realm, this road picks remote places to walk, and stays day and night, and there are people who are proficient in Chinese who say that the Western Army of the defense fooled the countryside and successfully touched Kongtong Mountain.

The old breeder's horse farm is dozens of miles away from the battlefield here.

The Iron Harrier who went ahead had already reconnoitred. In order to intercept and attack the arrogance of Brother Cha, most of the army of the old species was dispatched, and the cavalry was even more seventy. The men and horses left behind in the defense area did not have the strength to besiege this two-mounted elite cavalry. Moreover, the number of troops defending the horse farm is only 1,000 people, and they are used to being safe and defenseless.

Huo Jichi also plans to rest during the day in the hollow of Kongtong Mountain, recuperate his spirits, and pounce on the horse farm after dark, so that he can completely destroy the horse farm in the middle of the night, and leave leisurely while the night is dark.

He also knew that there was a gang of bandits in Kongtong Mountain.

But Kongtong Mountain has a large range. The bandits' lair is far from this recess. Bandits will not come here whether they are hunting or descending to plunder. I didn't care about the bandits.

Of course, he became a soldier in his teens, fought in old battles, and the task of this trip was heavy, so he would not be careless when he camped here. There are a lot of secret sentinels to monitor the surroundings just in case.

As a result, in case it really happens.

The bandits really discovered them by accident.

What Huo Jichi didn't know was that the main force of this gang of bandits was not ordinary people, but thorns who fled from various parts of the Western Army.

Those who dare to be thorns in the army must have certain skills, and there is no bear. Otherwise, you can only be stabbed. (To be continued.) )
