It's home, it's safe.

At this moment, they looked at the towering golden lock behind the willow forest, and this was the feeling and mood.

As if they were helpless wanderers who had been bullied outside, longing to go home and be protected and comforted by their families, this group of Manichaeans who were loyal to their religion completely forgot for a moment that they had been planning for a long time to unswervingly oppose the Song army and kill the Song army, and only hoped that they could enter the customs in time and get the protection of the Song army.

But just like the encounter in Hengshan, it seemed that God always wanted to sweep their happiness when they were the happiest, and specifically opposed them, and a group of Liao army iron cavalry suddenly turned out from behind a hillside.

No, there's a team out there.

The two teams of iron horsemen should be a team of 500 horsemen, with a total of 1,000 horsemen, blocking the road to the Golden Lock Pass, forming a flanking attack on the Mojiao.

In fact, these two groups of Liao troops really did not come specifically to deal with the Mojiao.

It was only because of the refugee tide that the Song people and horse dealers who were resting at home for the winter heard the news, and most of the people who were not Cangbei people sneaked across the border from Cangbei arrived at the end of the refugee tide because of the long distance on foot, but the opportunity was rare, and they still bravely sneaked into Liao to commit crazy crimes.

There are those who succeed, and there are those who are not strong or have bad luck and fail.

When the failed heads with Song people's hairstyles gathered and counted a large number of people, it immediately attracted the attention of the Liao State government.

Da Liao was most afraid that the Song State had large-scale real war horses, and hurriedly tried to mobilize troops to crack down on horse thieves, but due to the influence of the many refugees who had been resettled and were migrating to the resettlement places, it was really inconvenient to control and distinguish between the enemy and the enemy, and the strike effect was too poor.

When the Liao government saw that it could not be effectively controlled in its own country, it had an idea, so it was not enough to patrol and block it in the blank area outside the border gate.

Anyway, the horse makers of the Song people always have to return to the Song Kingdom.

The army is blocked outside the border pass, and if it is taken by surprise, it should be blocked and one should be accurate.

The horse dealers had already learned the news after being alerted by Song Bianjun in time or after their peers had paid the price. Be vigilant, carefully reconnoiter the route of advance and retreat, and be careful not to be intercepted, because each person has little experience and flexibility, and when he perceives the Liao army patrol, he can often hide quickly and conveniently, and the Liao army's blocking efficiency is getting lower and lower. I just thought that it was the Song people, and the fewer people who made the horses, the fewer they died, and it was not enough to be troubled.

However, Lu Shinang's group came too late, the refugee tide ended, and the surviving scattered horse dealers had already left, and Lu Shinang's group was accustomed to being mysterious and secretive as cultists, and they also secretly crossed the border pass of the Song army from Hengshan, and they were not reminded by their peers or the Song border army, and the Liao army relaxed its patrols outside the border pass, and Lu Shinang and his gang did not encounter the patrol team when they touched the Liao country, and they did not know about it at all. But it happened at this time.

Seeing the Liao army's horse team thundering, the hearts of Lu Shinang, Jiangnan Jiushen and other Mojiao personnel instantly tightened, and the psychological shadow formed by the robbery in Hengshan before surfaced in their hearts, both angry and depressed and tragic, and one of them was so tense that they were about to break.

Last night's glorious results could not firmly establish in their hearts the confidence to defeat the Liao army one by one.

They are self-aware, and their cavalry and archery skills cannot be compared with the border army of Liao. Opportunistic and unprepared, the victory is not the basis and reliance for the victory of the frontal and rigid Liao cavalry. But at this point, retreating will definitely die, and you must muster up the courage to go all out to break through the obstacles, and fight desperately until the golden lock level can hope to be saved.

Paralyzing. The Khitan dog thieves are also too cunning, and they can always calculate to intercept us at the last moment.

The Manichaeans quickly raised their shields amid the curse. Beat the horse and galloped, hoping to survive the rain of arrows and rush to his own pass.

When the two teams of Liao troops saw such a large team appear in front of them, they were not deceived by the Liao army dress of this team.

Seeing the many empty horses and bags of things on horses, they knew that this group of people would not be their own people, they must have done a big crime in the Liao State and made a fortune, and somehow secretly crossed the border pass to avoid the sentry post, and were eager to return to the Great Song Dynasty through the forefront of the Song Army's golden lock pass.

What they saw was the great merit and benefit of annihilating and capturing the Song people of the brigade. One by one, they glared at each other, like fierce beasts that had encountered delicious prey, and rushed close with a sneering smile, and immediately launched their skillful riding and archery skills to chase after the attacking target and shoot fiercely.

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of members of the Moroccan sect were planted......

Lu Shisang looked at the gap in the willow forest, it was so close. But it was so far away, and my heart was on fire, and I was afraid that I would have to fight for water again, and this time I would not only lose all the hard results, but also lose the lives of many subordinates and even myself, and I couldn't help but feel anxious and heartache like frying.

The three of Youyi Shen Shezhou Pan Wende, Leopard Tail Shenjiang Zhou and Tong, Huang Han Shen Suzhou Shen Neng and the two thousand Manichaeans who came back earlier to send the horses were escorted to the Wa Kingdom by the Cangzhao Navy, and they were still floating on the sea at this time, although they were almost on the island of Honshu, they were all depressed and uncertain, and they did not know how they would be dealt with by the Wen Cheng Hou Department, but they were still very happy not to fall into the desperate predicament of the compatriots on the Qingzhou side.

Qingtian God Fuzhou Shen Gang, Dunjia God Muzhou Ying Ming, Liuding God Mingzhou Xu Tong, Giant Spirit God Hangzhou Shen Zhen, Thunderbolt God Yuezhou Zhang Jinren, Hangke God Changzhou Category, Mourning God Runzhou Wanli, Taibai God Huzhou Zhao Yi, Tai Sui God Xuanzhou Gao Keli, although these nine gods have become more and more brave in stealing horses in Liao, they are powerful and have nowhere to go, and they can't rush to the Liao army to carry out martial arts melee combat against the rain of arrows, so they can only flee in a hurry.

Including the Tai Sui Shen Gao Ke who is good at shooting, he can only passively and desperately defend and dodge arrow attacks in the Liao army's rainstorm-like accurate shooting, no matter how strong his archery is, but without the help and cooperation of a large number of his own people who are good at shooting, he can't free up his hand to fight back, and he can't turn the situation around with his own strength alone.

In the desperate conflict, the gap in the willow forest was about to arrive, but the only way to advance was blocked by the rain of arrows that the Liao army focused on.

Lu Shi can't kill it even if he does all his skills, relying on the strong iron armor and good skills that he can get from wearing the Liao general, he can temporarily not die in the chaotic arrows, and he is already the ancestor who secretly blessed or respected the protector and burned high incense.

He was desperate.

Jiangnan Jiushen was also desperate.

The surviving Manichaeans were even more desperate.

At this moment, a dense number of crossbow arrows suddenly shot out of the willow forest, and the terrifying swishing sound startled the souls of Lu Shilang and his gang.

Unexpectedly, there was also an ambush of the Liao army in this wood, and with such a frontal attack, the front road was completely cut off, and my life was suspended.

He closed his eyes. If you want to give up defensive resistance, Quiet would have been shot sooner or better.

However, unexpectedly, he was not shot into a hedgehog by a crossbow arrow and died ugly, but the Liao army suffered.

In a burst of frightened shouts in the Khitan language, the Liao army, which was extremely arrogant and proud just now, fell like wheat under a sickle. The five hundred Liao troops closest to the woods died in a few blink of an eye.

Immediately, a large group of Song infantry rushed out of the forest on the left and right of the willow forest gap, and the horse grabbing turned over and rode skillfully. The horseless continued to run forward, raising his crossbow to shoot at the Liao army in the distance.

The Liao army in the back was shot down by a strong crossbow with a long range, and in a few breaths. The rest were terrified, and they pulled their horses and fled.

I don't care about any merit and benefits. Being alive is the best outcome.

However, the Song army, who had horses, rode their horses and galloped to start a pursuit, and it was easy and fast to wind a strong crossbow with the help of pulleys, and the remaining hundreds of Liao horsemen quickly disappeared on the horses under the far cover of the powerful crossbow arrows.

Lu Shinang, the nine gods of Jiangnan, and the surviving subordinates were all stunned for a while in the face of this divine turn, forgetting that their trophies were being quickly collected and possessed by the Song army's horses and weapons of the Liao army.

One wears a hooded helmet and sees only the eyes. The general of the Song army, who couldn't see his true face, also received an empty horse and rode it, came to Lu Shisang, pointed at the direction of the golden lock with a long iron gun, and greeted gently: "You are all the heroes of the Great Song Dynasty, worthy of respect." Now that it's safe, go home with peace of mind. ”

"Home?"

Lu Shinan was stunned and repeated, for some reason his heart suddenly became sour, and his eyes were actually moist.

At this moment. He only felt that he used to despise and hate Song Jun, who was so quick to kill, so cute.

Song Jun, who has always been incompetent and rotten, did not disappoint this time. Its skillful tactical coordination and superb military qualities. The lethality of horror makes people only deeply awe after seeing it.

The members of the Moroccan Sect looked at this majestic general, just like the people in the occupied areas who were suffering from the torture of the Japanese and white bandits saw the Eighth Route Army that had come to liberate them in time, they were so kind, so welcoming, and so lucky to meet them.

The nine gods of Jiangnan relied on the help of the Song army to regain this life from the hands of death, and they deeply realized that their ability was far from enough for the strong army. For a while, his emotions were complicated and agitated, and at this time, he had no intention or ability to stop the Song army from snatching and taking possession of his horse property.

The Qingzhou border army gathered all the horses that had been scattered before, quickly cleaned up the battlefield, and piled up the corpses of the Liao army in an open field and set them on fire. The bodies of the Manichaeans were buried in pits that had been dug and deepened by nature.

Seeing that Lu Shisang and the others did not leave, the masked general looked at all this silently with complicated eyes, and said in a much indifferent tone: "There is a heart." Let's go and pay homage to our dead companions. ”

Lu Shisang hugged his fist at this general, silently dismounted, and led his subordinates to bow down to a flat grave.

After this encounter, the number of this group of Mo sect members was reduced by nearly half, and after counting, there were exactly 777 people, including Lu Shisang and Jiangnan Jiushen.

I don't know if this number is auspicious or not.

Afterwards, he entered the Golden Lock Pass with the Song army.

A member of the Song Army, the junior colonel, gave a solemn order to Lu Shisang and the others: "Listen, now leave everything with the mark of the Liao Kingdom." ”

Lu Shisang and the others were shocked, and then they were extremely angry.

Is this a robbery?

The Qingzhou army under the rule of Marquis Wencheng did the same?

As soon as the little colonel saw the Mo Sect members glaring at each other, he immediately waved his hand, and immediately rows of Song troops surrounded him and aimed sharp arrows.

Entering the golden lock guarded by heavy soldiers, the rebel is undoubtedly a man-made sword, I am a fish and meat, and if I resist, I will die.

How can a man not bow his head under the eaves?

Lu Shisang held back his anger, finally suppressed his impulse, and asked the masked general coldly: "Dare to ask the general, are you doing this against the principle of horse administration of Marquis Wencheng?" ”

"Such an act is even more detrimental to the admirable integrity of the Cangzhao family, how can we win the trust of the people in the future?"

The ambitious Jiangnan anti-thieves also talked about abiding by the policy principles of the Great Song Dynasty?

The arrogant and hostile Manichaeans who wanted to eradicate Cangzhao also cared about maintaining Cangzhao's reputation?

A strange smile appeared at the corner of the mask general's mouth, and then he restrained that smile again, and asked mockingly: "If my Qingzhou army wants to seize your things, wouldn't it be two pits for you to die in front of the willow forest?" ”

Lu Shisang was stunned when he heard this.

Yes, if people want to play robbery, why should they come to the rescue and take us into the customs?

The masked general waved his hand to the junior colonel and said, "The general still has official business. You explain it to them. ”

After saying that, he rode his horse and left.

The little colonel looked at Lu Shisang and the nine gods of Jiangnan, snorted contemptuously, and then asked coldly: "What do you want to bring so many scimitars and Liao army bows and arrows back to Jiangnan?" Could it be that he wants to rebel and let people know that the scimitar flows from Cheongju to let the imperial court cure my family's marquis and fund the crime of the thief? ”

Lu Shisang was speechless.

Military things are forbidden, not to mention civilian, even official eunuchs, and they cannot be owned without the permission of the imperial court.

I got it before, and the border army didn't know about it. This time it was clearly placed in front of others, and the number was small, maybe people would turn a blind eye and let it go as the weapons and equipment needed to sell horses, so many people and so many weapons, how could the army dare to let it go?

Seeing that Master Lu did not answer, or that there was no quibble, the little colonel softened his tone, and said: "Your behavior this time has brought great trouble to my Hou Ye, and also shocked the Liao State Government, causing huge obstacles and dangers to the future business of the horse dealers, seriously affecting the import of horses, and destroying my Hou Ye's ardent hope that the Great Song Dynasty would quickly have a large number of war horses. ”

Lu Shisang sighed when he heard this, and his old face turned red.

Manichaeism has always been domineering and selfish, and in Jiangnan it has become arrogant and arrogant, as long as everything is beneficial to itself, how can it care whether others are affected or not. This crazy horse grabbing money and weapons will definitely anger the Liao Military Officer's Mansion, and Yanyun will definitely be heavily guarded in the future, and the good days of the Great Song Dynasty horse traders are indeed over

Think again.

Yes, wouldn't it be good for people to wait for us to be killed by the Liao army, and then kill the Liao army, and eliminate the human evidence and handle in one fell swoop, so as to deal with the subsequent accountability of the Liao State and the imperial court?

I really can't complain about people's deductions.

complained only that he was unlucky, and he happened to meet the Liao army, but he failed to collect all the armor and weapons before the border army saw it. Otherwise, as before, the border army will find out that it is a Song person and easily wave it away, and you can swagger away from Cangbei with the spoils of war and secretly return to Jiangnan to use it.

At this point, it's useless to say anything.

He threw down his weapon, dismounted, disarmed, and handed over everything with the mark of the Liao State, including his horse and leather clothes.

After the border army took these away, the little colonel did not let them go, and shouted again: "Open your purse." ”

"You"

Lu Shisang was furious, and couldn't help but point at the little colonel and said angrily: "Since you want to rob us of our things, why don't you just shoot us at once, why torture people a little bit?" ”
