Chapter 392: Three Disasters of the Prairie

With the news of the attack on the Fengshengzhou Military Fort, it was Yang Xinzhong's Zazi, who hoped to build a wooden cabinet from Datong Mansion to Fengshengzhou, which could be pulled by animal power to facilitate the rapid support of Fengshengzhou.

But he didn't have any money.

Zhao Huan has.

The emperor of the Great Song Dynasty first approved the railway plan from Fengshengzhou to Datongfu, and this railway, because of the presence of the Khitans, could slightly ease the expenditure.

But this is also a huge expense, Zhao Huan directly approved the start-up capital of 5 million guan from his own internal funds, and the follow-up funds of at least 50 million guan were invested in the construction of this 23-zhang wide gallop road.

And this three-hundred-mile-long wooden cabinet railway is also an important hub to ensure the safety of Yunzhong Road, the Qin Dynasty's gallop road is sixty-nine meters wide, and Zhao Huan doesn't think it's too much at all.

Zhao Huan knew that this was a national government, and it was not a matter for him to always pay money from within, but he couldn't care so much at the moment, so he would build the wooden cabinet first.

Zhao Huan approved the notebook, and he kept staring at the military newspaper in Fengshengzhou, and occasionally glanced at the Kanyu map, he was very worried.

The losses in the military newspaper were not heavy, and the other side was only a team of fifty horses, trying to attack a civilian fort in Fengsheng Prefecture.

It's just that under the bows and crossbows of the defenders of the fort, they evacuated in an orderly manner.

Yang Xizhong analyzed that it was the regular army of the Jin people, because the advance and retreat were well-founded, and the pursuit of the defenders did not have effective killing.

Moreover, Yang Xinzhong said something in the military newspaper, which made Zhao Huan even more worried.

That is the Jiesheng army of Da Song Yuan in Linhuang, and the security military report every three days was not delivered on time.

Under the threat of Linhuang City, Fengsheng Prefecture should not be attacked.

The safety of grain and grass is the first guarantee of military marching at any time, and since the Jin people attacked the military fort in Fengsheng Prefecture, the regular army appeared before the military fort.

That shows that the Jin people have solved the danger in Linhuang City.

Wang Yu and Sun Yi's 20,000 people are a little dangerous.

Could it be that Yelu Dashi returned to Mobei from the Western Regions? Or did Yelu Yu rebel and accept the Jin people's recruitment again?

Zhao Huan frowned, looking at the direction of Datong Mansion, how did the Jin people untie this dead knot in Linhuang City?

It was night, the lonely moon was hanging high, and the grassland was frosty white.

The peculiar wind on the grassland, with a biting chill, constantly washed the mottled city walls of Linhuang City.

Under the city walls are the corpses of countless Khitans, Bohai people, Han'er, and Jin people.

The Jin people went south again, and it became an ironclad fact.

They attacked Linhuang City like crazy, but where is this former capital of Liao Linhuang Mansion so easy to attack?

The city is still calm, although recently, tens of thousands of signing troops and Jin elites have been attacking the city, but only the corpses of thousands of signing soldiers have been dropped.

"This group of Jin people can't drain the water in Linhuangwei, and the messengers can't get out, if the official family sends reinforcements, they just fall for Yan Zonghan's trick to encircle and send reinforcements." Sun Yi took a bite of the leg of mutton, feeling that the taste was not very right, so he grabbed the cumin and sprinkled it on the leg of lamb.

He placed the leg of lamb on the bonfire and kept spinning.

On the bonfire was a golden lamb, which had been roasted to a golden brown, and the mutton fat was constantly dripping into the fire, making a sizzling sound.

The wind blew the bonfire unpredictable, and the tongue of the fire kept licking the lamb's body.

A pungent aroma continued to spread in the air, and the bonfire crackled and let out, and the flames extinguished and illuminated Wang Yu's face.

Wang Yu nodded, and said in a stern tone: "We need to break through and let Tanma pass the news that we are still safe back to the Great Song Dynasty." ”

"Why did the Jin people behave like this? According to the intelligence of the Imperial City Division, at least 100,000 elite soldiers were dispatched this time! There are also 10,000 Meng'an Mook with him! This is not normal. Lin Youyu asked with a frown.

Yelu Yu tightened his body and said: "The north is bitterly cold, not to mention the perennial strong winds, if the snow comes out, it will be a white expanse, not even a single grass root can be seen, and sometimes the tree will be buried." ”

"Do you know about the White Calamity?" Yelu Yu asked as he tightened the white on his body again.

If the autumn wind in Bianjing is bleak, the autumn rain is day and night, and the dripping Feifei is dripping, the wind in Linhuang has begun to bring cold.

Sun Yi nodded and said: "White disaster, black disaster, yellow disaster, I know, I have seen it, the white-haired wind eats people." ”

Yelu Yu saw that there was fear on his face, and his view was a little distorted in the light of the campfire.

"White-haired wind, white-haired wind, there is snow but no snow but not winter." Wang Yu also said in response.

Yelu Yu sighed and said: "If there is a strong wind on the grassland in this winter, and heavy snow falls, and the road is blocked by heavy snow, the whole heaven and earth are connected together, and it is all white. ”

"If the sun doesn't come out, the bones of people who are cold will hurt, and if the sun comes out, it will snow everywhere, and people will be blinded."

"Sometimes as you walk, you can freeze into ice mounds, sheep and horses, and stumble."

"If it doesn't snow, if there is no snow this winter, there will be no grass in the field next year, because there is no water. Livestock still have to starve to death and die of thirst, even if they don't starve to death, they will grow fat in the last year, and they will all grow in vain. ”

"Many ewes starved to death with the lambs in their wombs. Alas. ”

"And the locusts of the field came out of the earth, and flew all over the earth, everywhere, not to mention the food of men, not even of the lambs."

"If you don't blow the white-haired wind, in the spring of the next year, the wind will inevitably whistle with the wild sand, and when you go out, there will be sand between your teeth."

Yelu's words silenced the four men in front of the campfire.

"In order to make the people of Liao live better, Emperor Taizu of Liao built cities everywhere, bought grain from the Guannei, and went to the Guannai to loot, also to let the Liao people live."

"Since the alliance of the Yuanyuan, the Khitan has really bought a lot of grain from the Guannai, and it can be regarded as a comfortable life."

Yerod's expression was full of nostalgia.

When he was young, it was the time when Song Liao's commerce and trade were prosperous, and when the white-haired wind blew, the entire Khitan people would hide in the city, no matter how heavy the snow was outside, there would always be more people alive if there was food in the city.

"But the man of the grassland is a man on horseback, is he still a steppe man when he enters the city?"

"I have lived a more comfortable life in the city, and I have also lost all the blood of the grassland people. No, the Liao State is gone. ”

Under the night sky, in front of the campfire, only the sighs of Yelu remained.

The prairie people, as long as they enter the city, will fall into a strange circle, that is, the combat effectiveness will decline rapidly.

Probably because he fought desperately to stay alive and plundered.

Now that you can live without having to fight hard, who will fight to the death?

"The Khitan people entered the city, but the Jin people did not enter the city, they were deeply affected by the three disasters of the grassland, it is only September, and it has not yet reached the month of the white-haired wind, but the wind in Linhuang is already cold." Yelu Yu said remindedly.

Lin Youyu frowned and thought for a while and said, "This year's autumn is a little early. But is this the reason why the Jin people are going south? ”

"If the Jin people don't move south now, they won't be able to defeat the sixteen states of Yanyun, and they won't have the strength next year. Maybe the current Huanglong Mansion has snowed. Yelu Yu saw that he had been in the Huanglong Mansion for several years, and there was fear in his eyes.

"What does the general mean that this year's winter will be longer than usual?" Wang Yu's brows furrowed even deeper.

Yelu Yu nodded and said, "Yes, and this year, it will definitely fall very thick and thick snow, and it will not melt all winter." ”

"The Khitan people are better, now that they have taken refuge in you Song people, whether they are receiving charity from you or buying food from you, the Khitan people can survive this winter, and the Jin people will be uncomfortable this winter."

Wang Yu said with a look of sudden realization: "The general sent envoys, and used so many conditions, and also hoped that our garrison was due to a strange phenomenon. It turned out to be this reason. ”

The grassland people have been inherited for thousands of years, and they must have their own set of survival rules, and it is their instinct to look at the sky.

Yelu Yu laughed loudly, and laughed for a long time before saying: "The Khitan people have also been established for more than 200 years, so naturally there is some inheritance." ”

"Jin people must also know that this year's snow will be earlier."

"It's good to enjoy the shade under the big tree, the big tree is the Great Song Dynasty now, and the Jin Renbing is sharper, but it can't cut the throat of the Great Song Dynasty. Your new emperor of Bianjing is really courageous, and he has given up everything to conquer Yunzhong, if the sixteen states of Yanyun are in the hands of the Jin, the Khitans will definitely defect to the Jin. ”

Wang Yu arched his hand, and Yelu Yujian was also scheming, and his vision was a little long-term.

He thought for a moment and said, "Maybe I've disappointed General Jin Wuwei." A certain decided to leave Linhuang with the Jiesheng army. ”

Yelu Yu looked at Wang Yu with a frown.

It's almost winter, where is he going?
