Originally, when I heard Zhang Bin say that he would not kill the captured Liao people, he thought that such a situation would occur. Before the young man standing in the first row could react, he was slashed into a pool of blood by the swarming Song army.

Zhang Bin glanced at the dozen and a half children kneeling among the women and children, and found that the other party was staring at them with great hatred, the murderous intent in the depths of his eyes was chilling, and he hesitated slightly, gritted his teeth and said: "Folding Muqiu, there is no man left behind who is taller than the wheel...... Gather all the horses and take them away, and then bring enough food and grass. ”

"Yes!" Orimuqiu agreed, and led people with an expressionless face to start a unilateral massacre.

Zhang Bin was stimulated by the hatred of those Liao women, children and children just now, and didn't want to look any further, so he urged the horse to leave the killing field, Han Sanlang hurriedly ran from a distance, and reported from afar: "The third gear, the spies are coming to report, a large Khitan tribe in the north direction has discovered the situation here, and sent a cavalry of more than 1,000 people to rush to this side, and there are still thirty miles from here." ”

Zhemu Qiu, who had just killed a dozen older and larger Khitan teenagers, ran and said, "Prison army, the Liao army has only come with more than a thousand people, we can fight." ”

"How many more of us will be left after World War I?" Zhang Bin snorted coldly and scolded: You remember, we are going to attack the Liao tribe, and we must not charge head-on with the cavalry of more than 1,000 Liao people. ”

Orimu Qiu looked ashamed and hurriedly said yes.

By the time more than 1,000 Liao reinforcements arrived, Zhang Bin and his party had already run away.

……

……

The so-called siege of Wei to save Zhao is what Zhang Bin is doing now.

Zhang Bin knew very well that the harder he beat the Liao people on the territory of the Liao State, the more people he killed, and the more tribes he attacked, the better the effect would be.

Just imagine, his hometown Xijing Road was killed and plundered by the Song State with a strange army, and the Liao tribal army that followed Xiao Tianxiong, the king of the Southern Courtyard, to the south in the area of Zhending Mansion can still stay, so he naturally has to hurry back to watch his home. At this time, not to mention Xiao Tianxiong, the king of the Southern Courtyard, even the words of the emperor of the Liao State may not work.

It was for this purpose that Zhang Bin continued to sneak attack the small tribe of the Liao people near Shuitou City.

………

………

A few horses galloped and disturbed pheasants and hares foraging in the dead grass, and they flew or jumped wildly, and fled quickly into the depths of the grassland.

There are very few trees in the grassland, and even if there are, they don't grow much, and a two-foot tall wild elm tree spreads its huge umbrella cover, which is extremely conspicuous in the winter wasteland.

A man dressed as a Khitan herdsman reined in his horse, took a closer look at the tribe below the hillside, smiled coldly, and said to one of the men who was also dressed as a Khitan herdsman: "It's a large and small tribe, about 7,000 tents, you take one person back to report and lead the way." ”

The herdsman turned his horse's head and galloped away, and the remaining three herdsmen jumped down from their horses and led their horses into the shade of the trees, not to shade, but to hide themselves.

These four people are a group of spies from the pacification department, responsible for finding Zhang Bin's target.

They had only time to rest for a stick of incense, and a black line slowly appeared on the grassland from the distant col.

The slope is located in the south of the foothills, the sun is abundant, and the left and right are half-poked out of the mountain col, which can block the invasion of cold winds in winter, coupled with heavy camel felt, cow felt, enough for the Liao herdsmen to resist the severe cold of this winter.

For a long time, for nomads, winter is the time of the lowest vigilance, not to mention that the Liao people have only robbed the Song people, the Dangxiang people, the Tibetan people, and the Goryeo people for more than ten years, and no one has ever dared to come to the powerful Liao State to rob them.

Although there is news that an army of the Song people occupied Shuitou City, and some tribes were attacked by the Song people, after all, it was far away from here, and the various tribes of the Liao people thought that the Song people did not dare to leave Shuitou City too far, and this tribe was more than 100 miles away from Shuitou City.

Therefore, although the people of this tribe were vigilant, they only sent two guard sentries in the cold weather.

So, it was not until the enemy came to the outside of the Riches that the two sentries were alarmed by the thunderous sound of horses' hooves.

"Uh......... Woo woo ........." The terrible sound of the horn was sounded by the two guard sentinels of the Khitan tribe, and the warriors of the tribe were all startled, and hurriedly ran out of their respective tents with weapons and hurried to the tethered horses.

The horses had not yet put on their saddles, but the sound of the trumpets became more and more urgent, and it was clear that the enemy situation was very urgent, and most of the tribal warriors did not bother to put on their saddles, but carried their longbows on their shoulders, and took a pot of arrows and slung them diagonally, and jumped on the horse's back. Quickly gather in the direction the enemy is coming from.

I have to say that because the news of the tribe being attacked has spread before, the warriors of this tribe are more vigilant and react relatively quickly.

However, as soon as nearly 2,000 Liao soldiers gathered, two explosive bags were thrown at them.

Rumble! Rumble!

There were two loud bangs, and the screams suddenly broke out, and the war horses of the Liao warriors suddenly fell into panic and scurried around.

In this case, a rain of arrows was reflected in the pupils of the still alive Liao, getting closer and closer, until the entire pupil was completely covered by a sudden rain of sharp arrows............

This Khitan tribe has a family tent of 7,000, a population of more than 30,000, more than 7,000 adult males, and more than 4,000 warriors. It's just that only 2,000 soldiers were left in the clan, and the other more than 2,000 soldiers went to Zhending Mansion on the orders of the king of the Southern Courtyard, and they have not returned yet.

Because of the insufficient preparation, coupled with the two explosives packs directly destroyed the Liao cavalry formation, the cavalry failed to successfully charge, and was stunned by the gunpowder bags and arrow rain, and the combat strength was less than one-tenth, so after a fight, all the 2,000 or so cavalry gathered by this tribe were killed.

Nearly 3,000 iron horsemen quickly divided into two wings like flowing water, surrounding the more than 7,000 tents. Zhang Bin rode and led a thousand cavalry straight towards the Chinese army, and all the clansmen of this tribe were concentrating there under the persecution of the Song army from all sides.

The women and children took the children's hands and silently obeyed the order, their expressions full of hatred, and then knelt down to the Song army under the leadership of several elders, and kowtowed again and again, and the head was bleeding from the forehead, begging to bypass them.

However, Zhang Bin did not pay any attention to them at all, and ordered: "All the men who can ride horses are killed, and then they scavenge grain and grass and burn their tents." ”

Half an hour later, all the people of this tribe were killed, except for the old and weak, the women and the children, and their tents were burned to ashes. And Zhang Bin and his entourage brought all the war horses in the tribe, and after replenishing the grain and grass, they quickly left.

So far, with the addition of this tribe, they have raided four Liao tribes.

Because they were all sneak attacks, and these four tribes were located in the four directions of east, west, north and south, they were far apart, especially since explosives were used every time.

Therefore, each time it was basically a complete victory, but in total, the Song army also killed more than 200 soldiers.

………

………

"Damn the Song people." After the news of the sneak attack of four tribes reached the Liao camp in Zhending Mansion, Xiao Tianxiong, the king of the Southern Courtyard, jumped like thunder.

But then Xiao Tianxiong immediately understood Zhang Bin's intentions, and sneered: "The Song people want to carry out a plan to encircle Wei and save Zhao, and force me to transfer troops to besiege and kill this bold Song people. ”

"Someone came, immediately sent an order from Haidongqing to make all the tribes in Xijing Province vigilant and unite to besiege and kill this Song army. In addition, he notified Yelu Qianhu, who was stationed in Datong Mansion, and asked him to divide 5,000 elite soldiers to chase and kill this Song army. Xiao Tianxiong quickly made a decision.

A staff member next to him reminded: "King, Datong Mansion has divided 5,000 people, and only 5,000 people remain, in case this Song army has the idea of fighting Datong Mansion......"

Xiao Tianxiong snorted coldly: "The Song army in Shuitou City wants to leave people to defend the city, and the troops that are divided to attack the small tribes will definitely not be too much, how can they have the strength to attack Datong Mansion." ”

"That's what the king said." After the staff finished speaking, he hesitated slightly, and then reminded: "King, Shuitou City has suffered such heavy losses, Yelu Dagu has even been killed in battle, and now four more tribes have been attacked and exterminated by the Song army, I am afraid that the news has reached Shangjing, Your Majesty ......"

When Xiao Tianxiong heard this, his face suddenly became even more gloomy, he knew that the matter of Shuitou City had a great impact on his status in the country, because this was the heaviest loss of the Liao State in many years.

……

……

It took three days to sneak attack the small tribes in the east, west, south and north, Zhang Bin knew that it would be difficult to sneak attack the Liao tribe next, because the news had been completely spread, the Liao tribe would inevitably increase vigilance, and there would be more and more Liao troops besieging them.

Fortunately, after Zhang Bin and his party attacked the last tribe, it snowed, which caused great trouble for their march, but also covered up their tracks.

And the snow kept falling for the next few days.

Now Wang Junlin led nearly 3,000 men and horses to walk in the snow for two days, and there is still half the way to go from their goal, but fortunately, when they attacked the four Liao tribes, they robbed a large number of war horses.

The target ahead is not Shuitou City, Zhang Bin never thought about returning to Shuitou City from the beginning, after all, the Liao people are not fools, how can they still leave them a way back to Shuitou City, if they return to Shuitou City, they will definitely fall into the net.

Zhang Bin led the men and horses away from Shuitou City, and sneaked along the foot of the Taihang Mountains towards a certain avenue on the border between Zhending Mansion and Xijing Road of Liaoguo.

This mountain road is the grain road used by the Liao people to transport grain and grass in the intelligence of the pacification department.

"The Liao thieves would never have imagined that we would be so bold." This is after listening to Zhang Bin's plan at that time, Zhemuqiu's eyes lit up, and he said such a sentence with all his might, in fact, Zhang Bin's gamble on this trip was unexpected.

………

………

It has been many years since a messenger in the Liao Kingdom entered Shangjing with a white flag on his back, and five knights in succession carried white flags and entered Shangjing City only one day apart.

With the hegemonic position of the Great Liao in the East now, even if the border pass temporarily falls to one state and one city, the people of Liao Shangjing will not panic, but they will inevitably think crankily, and people do not know what is happening.

It was only in the evening that I heard the bell ringing in the corner tower of the Imperial City, which was slowly and violently striking after the heavy snowfall.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Among the layers of deep palaces, there were many people in the main hall that was wider than the Imperial Palace of Tokyo City of the Great Song Dynasty. But it was silent.

At the end of the main hall, on the dragon chair that looked very similar to the dragon collapse of the Song Dynasty, Yelu Hongji, the eighth emperor of the Great Liao Dynasty, did not have much majesty, but had a faint elegance.

This one is the most fond of Han culture in the history of the Liao Dynasty, and likes to compose poems, and the poems are very good, several Han poems have been passed down through the ages, and later generations commented that the poems they wrote are majestic, far-reaching, and even included in the Liao Emperor in the "Qingning Collection".

It was also this Liao Emperor who used a large number of Han officials and worshiped Buddhism.

At the same time, it was also this Liao emperor who made the politics of the Liao Dynasty decay rapidly, further intensified the social contradictions, and finally spread to the army, and after his death, the 400,000 iron cavalry of the Liao State was defeated by the Jurchen 10,000 cavalry in the field, and then quickly destroyed the country.

Yelu Hongji sat indifferently on the dragon chair at this time, and the courtiers felt from his slightly trembling hands and extremely cold eyes that Yelu Hongji was angry to the extreme.

His Highness knelt with several messengers who had been mentally exhausted to the extreme, and they had all traveled thousands of miles from Xijing Road, braving severe cold and heavy snow to arrive in Shangjing.

The snow on the messengers wet their rich wool blankets, but they still knelt with their heads bowed, not daring to make a sound. I was afraid that if I said one more word, I would anger the Liao Emperor and cut off their heads to vent my anger.

"Eight thousand elite soldiers went to rob the grain and grass of the Song people, and the whole army was wiped out in the Flying Fox Path, I won't talk about this matter, Xiao Tianxiong sent me a letter, saying that it was an accident."

"But then the 10,000 cavalry of the Song State took the secret road, entered Datong Mansion, and captured Shuitou City, and the surrounding 20,000 tribal troops and the 20,000 Xijing troops sent by Xiao Tianxiong attacked for more than half a month, not only failed to recapture Shuitou City, but also almost wiped out the entire army, and even the idiot Yelu Dagu died."

"This is not over, the Song people have the audacity to kill Shuitou City and destroy the four tribes of Datong Mansion, although they are all small tribes of ten thousand people, but this is a great shame for my Da Liao."

Yelu Hongji finished these words in an angry tone, and the palace hall was deadly silent, and the atmosphere was so dull that it was difficult to breathe.

"Xiao Tianxiong has been in charge of Xijing Dao for many years, and the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun are already the richest places in my Daliao, I think Xiao Tianxiong is too comfortable." Yelu Hongji's gaze swept over everyone in the hall, and finally said lightly in an inexplicable tone.

After listening to Yelu Hongji's last sentence, many people in the palace were shocked, and their hearts suddenly realized that this was His Majesty taking the opportunity to clean up Xiao Tianxiong, the king of the Southern Courtyard.

Sure enough, Yelu Hongji immediately said: "Send a large army from Shangjing to kill all the Song people in the area of Shuitou City, and take Shuitou City, and from then on, the area of Shuitou City will be divided into Zhongjing Road." ”

The vassal states and major tribes of the Liao State are not counted, and the territory is divided into five major regions: Zhongjing Province, Xijing Province, Tokyo Province, Shangjing Province, and Nanjing Province. The system of the Liao State was different from that of the Song State, but similar to that of the princes of the Han Dynasty.
