As the sun sets, the surrounding trees are bare, and the river is covered with a thick layer of ice, reflecting the cold colors under the reflection of the afterglow, and even the earth is frozen hard. Eighty-one? Middle? At the east gate of Snake Valley County on the border of the northern country, the soldiers guarding the gate were not afraid of the bitter cold, standing under the city gate, holding a cold iron gun, and always vigilant.

Suddenly, there was a sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and the soldiers defending the city couldn't help but stand up straight, and their spirits were also vibrant, and they understood that General Zhao had returned to the camp after training.

In the distance, a horse team, waving a crimson yellow military flag, galloped over quickly, and nearly a thousand cavalry galloped on horseback, but they also advanced and retreated, and they were not messy at all. For one rider and one white horse, sword eyebrows, quite powerful and upright. It is Ziying's younger brother who recites the Tao all day - Zhao Kuangyin, he wears a battle helmet, wears bright silver armor, holds the reins in his left hand, holds an iron spear in his right hand, carries a longbow on his back, and carries a bucket of wolf tooth arrows around his waist. He stepped on the stirrup, tightened the reins, controlled the horse, and then smiled and said to the sergeant who followed closely behind: "Today's training has made a lot of progress, and in the evening, we will have a bigger dinner, wild boar stewed cabbage!" In the future, if every day is like today, I will report to Lord Guo, not only let you eat meat every day, but also add you monthly money. ”

The Ma Jun behind him suddenly boiled, and everyone couldn't help but be overjoyed, and some shouted: "Thank you, General Zhao." Some people laughed and said: "Third child, follow General Zhao for two years, and you will be able to go to your daughter-in-law." ”。。。

General Zhao was also in high spirits, talking and laughing with the sergeants around him. When they arrived at the gate, the cavalry neatly reined in the reins and slowly rode their horses into the city and back to the camp.

===============================

"Starling. You're back, and the third brother ordered someone to beat the drum and gather the generals. As soon as he entered the camp gate, Gao Huailiang ran over and said.

"Oh, Huailiang, could it be that the Khitans have invaded the border today." Zhao Kuangyin glanced at Gao Huailiang suspiciously and asked.

Gao Huailiang pursed the corners of his lips and said disdainfully: "Them? Yeluzhao just suffered a loss last month, won't he come for a while? It was sent by Guo Tingshi. ”

As they spoke, they went to the tent, and when they arrived at the tent, they saw that everyone had come. Guo Rong was wearing a white robe, stepping on the official boots of the clouds, sitting on the handsome chair in the center, standing Zhang Yongneng and Wang Zhen on one side, and Shi Shouxin and Murong Yanzhao on the other side. Zhao Kuangyin and the others took two steps closely, stepped forward to salute, and stood still on both sides.

Guo Rong said slowly: "Brothers, today my father has a letter. Speaking of the fact that the Khitans do not have much stock this winter, the tribes are ready to move, and they are going south to plunder. The king of Taiyuan was the Great Wall in the north of the imperial court, and he was very anxious about this matter. The father commander will move the army in the direction of Yingzhou, and order us and other generals to cooperate, wait for the opportunity to move, and inflict heavy damage on the enemy, so that he does not dare to underestimate Hedong. With that, Guo Rong stood up, took out a letter from his sleeve, and handed it to Zhang Yongneng and them.

"Ah, it's our cooperation again, isn't it our turn to fight again?" Murong Yanzhao complained loudly.

Seeing that Zhang Yongneng, Zhao Kuangyin and others were circulating this letter. Guo Rong glanced at Murong who was still indignant, smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, and said in a low voice: "Brothers, in fact, I privately heard that the imperial court intends to check and balance the feudal town, and the king of Taiyuan is deeply favored by the country, but... Well, his old man is worried about the situation, and he is worried that His Majesty will be deceived. That's why I ordered my father to send troops to give the Khitans a warning. It's just that the current situation is unclear, my Hedong will definitely not fight to the death with the Khitans, and my father will lead the army straight to Yingzhou. On the contrary, we, the troops who cooperate with the camera, will fight a few battles with the Khitans with real swords. Therefore, my father ordered us to show the prestige of the Hedong Army this time, knock on the mountain and shake the tiger, that is, to deter the Khitan so that it would not dare to go south, and also warned the DPRK and the Central Committee to be small so that they could not confuse the DPRK. ”

In his opinion, the army of his father Guo Wei was more of a political gesture, showing off the power of Hedong to the Khitan and the imperial court, so that they did not dare to easily beat Hedong's attention. Therefore, although Guo Wei's army has moved, it is basically impossible to fight hard with the Khitan army, but these troops who cooperate with the action may become the main force of this demonstration. These people under the account are Guo Rong's henchmen and brothers, he can't help but say these things, but he is not too straightforward.

Fortunately, the brothers below are either a little bit clear, or they are happy to fight, for fear that they will not let him do his best. Therefore, as soon as he spoke, Shi Shouxin said: "Finally, this time, it's our turn to dispatch." Last month, I went to Daizhou and met the fourth brother, he grabbed me for a while and bragged, how many Khitan dogs he killed in Yingxian, looking at his awesome appearance, I was not convinced, this time I want to be a pioneer, no one can rob me. As he spoke, he stared around with a bull's eye, for fear that someone would jump out and take the lead.

Guo Rong said with a smile: "This time is different from last time, last month it was the Khitan dog who ran out to disturb the side by himself, and was caught off guard by Li Chongjin." We are going to fight this time but the old opponent Yeluzhao's Mayi, although this Mayi is not big, but there are still city walls and arrow towers these fortifications, plus this Mayi is only more than 5o miles away from Shuozhou, if you are fast, you can run back and forth in half an hour. It's not easy to attack the city, brothers, do you have any plans? ”

"Hey, third brother, what kind of strategy do you want, isn't there only two thousand Khitan dogs in this county? We've got 3,000 men, so we'll rush over and cut them down in a short time. Murong Yanzhao said nonchalantly.

"Haha, I said Brother Jiu, people are in the city gate tower to release arrows, we ride horses before we can impulse the city gate, it is estimated that we will lose half of the people and horses." Gao Huailiang said with a grin.

"Lao Thirteen is right, this time the Khitans are the main defense, and we are the main attack." Zhang Yongde said in a deep voice on the side.

"To say that our army has 3,000 people and 2,000 cavalry, with the same number, we are not afraid of them at all in the Khitan, but we are not afraid of them at all. Let's find a way to lure it out. Wang Xian, who had not spoken, said.

"Lao Qi, this Yeluzhao of Mayi, we have dealt with each other many times, we know each other, this winter, the ground is bare, there is nothing, there is no benefit, it's like luring him out, I don't see it difficult." Zhang Yongde shook his head and said. During the autumn harvest, Zhao Kuangyin and the others pretended to grab grain in Mayi, which led the Khitans to send troops and beat Yeluzhao fiercely. In the past few months, the two sides have encountered small forces, and there have been no large-scale battles.

Guo Rong glanced at Zhao Kuangyin, who had been bowing his head and thinking deeply, and asked, "Old eight, what do you think?" ”

"Third brother, brothers, this Yeluzhao is also a fierce general, but it is not enough for our brothers to play. I'm thinking about how to knock Shuozhou down. ”

The eyes of everyone in the big tent became eager, they all knew that this old man who had not spoken much had a lot of ghost ideas when he started a war, and now that he said this, it seemed that this Anxian County could be easily taken down.

"Starling, have you figured out a way?" Shi Shouxin couldn't help but ask.

"I haven't come up with a way to fight Shuozhou yet, but I have already had the idea of fighting Mayi." Looking at the eager eyes of the brothers, Zhao Kuangyin no longer sold Guanzi, he smiled: "Most of our Central Plains people are good at defending but not good at fighting, so when we attack the city, the first thing we think about is how to deal with the city wall, arrow tower, and rolling wood and stone, but this Khitan people are good at field warfare, they are not good at defending the city, at least this Yeluzhao, we have been neighbors with him for so long, whether it is a sneak attack or an assault, I have never played the work of besieging the city." We are not good at attacking cities, and he likes to defend cities even if he doesn't see them. In addition, during the autumn harvest, he suffered our losses, and this kid must find another opportunity to take revenge on us. In addition, this Ma Yi is so close to Shuozhou, he must not believe in his heart that we can eat his two thousand men and horses. So, we can do it in Mayi... ”

=========================

With the crisp sound of a horsewhip, a scout shouted: "Drive, drive, dodge, dodge, there is an urgent military situation." When the already scarce people on Mayi Street saw this, they fled to both sides of the street in panic, and some people even hid in their homes and closed the door. The Khitan soldiers were extremely cruel to the Han people, calling and drinking, if they were enslaved, they were slightly unsatisfactory, and they were either beaten or scolded. When these people see the Khitans every day, they are afraid to avoid them, not to mention that this person is still in a hurry.

When the scout arrived at the county yamen, he turned over and dismounted, took three steps and made two steps, walked up the steps, and said to the guards standing in front of the door: "Hurry up and report to the general, there is an urgent military situation." ”

Ye Luzhao, who learned the news of the Jin soldiers' troops, must not have panicked, he took a sip of strong wine and shouted: "Come on, bring my big sword and battle armor, let's go up to the city tower to have a look." ”

As soon as Yeluzhao ascended the city tower, he saw a group of cavalry coming from the southeast black, and he estimated in his heart, about 2,000 people, it seems that the cavalry of Snake Valley County is the whole army. But you want to use cavalry to attack the city, hehe, it's a bit of a joke.

The horse army came very fast, just like the tide of Qiantang, and in an instant it rushed to the city gate, and the sound of horses' hooves shook the earth as if it were shaking, as if the city towers were shaking. The Khitan people ride on horses on weekdays, and they don't think that the cavalry of the Great Jin Dynasty is very good, but the first time they defended the city, they encountered such a large number of cavalry, and the army that was still in the sky just now suddenly ran to the bottom of their noses, and the spears and knives hanging on the horse's head felt that they would be split into their heads the next moment. The Khitan soldiers on the city tower were a little earthy, and a few pro-soldiers seemed to have just remembered, and persuaded: "General, should we send someone to Shuozhou to ask Marshal Xiao for help." ”

"What do you ask for help, there are only 2,000 people in this group of bastards, and they are all cavalry, they come fast and run fast, if Marshal Xiao sends troops, this group of rabbit cubs will definitely run back with their tails between their legs. When the time comes, Marshal Xiao will treat Lao Tzu as a lie about the military situation. Don't worry, they don't have a ladder, I'll see how they can attack the city. I'm just trying to have fun with them. Yeluzhao said confidently. Last time during the autumn harvest, he suffered a loss from the Jin soldiers, and now he has learned smartly, anyway, it's bare outside now, you can grab it if you want, I won't go out again.

Of course, the cavalry of the Great Jin Dynasty would not be stupid and ran to attack the city, and when there was still a stone's throw away from the city, they fired a volley at the city.

Yeluzhao was climbing at the mouth of the city wall, happily making a big speech, but he didn't expect the other party to say that he would shoot arrows, but fortunately, the soldiers next to him saw the opportunity quickly, and quickly pulled him aside, narrowly avoiding a fatal arrow. Otherwise, General Yelu, who was about to talk and laugh and retreat from the enemy, would probably be shot on the spot.

The cavalry of the Great Jin Dynasty came quickly, retreated quickly, lined up from east to west and circled around the city for half a circle, took advantage of the gap to put a few arrows, and did not attack the city, I don't know who whistled first, and then two thousand people responded in unison, whistling, and actually retreated. The Great Jin soldiers patronized like this, and the Khitan soldiers who accidentally showed their heads and shoulders on the city tower were shot dead and wounded nearly 100 people. He was directing the army on the city wall to move with the Jin soldiers, ready to reinforce at any time, so as not to be caught off guard by the Jin soldiers.

Seeing that the Jin soldiers had retreated, Yelu went back to the county government to rest in a huff. But as soon as he drank three cups, another sergeant came to report: "General, it's not good, the Jin army is here again." Yelu Zhao defended the city from failing, and his dedication once again ascended the city tower to command. As a result, this time the Jin army went around from the east to the south, then went back again, and roared away again.

The sound of horses' hooves, I came, and with a whistling, I went again, waved my hand, and shot a few quick arrows, taking away a few lives.

In one day, the Jin soldiers played under the city of Mayi three times. Not to mention that Yeluzhao was furious, even the Khitan soldiers under him were also angry. Since suffering a big loss last time, the Khitan soldiers did not dare to underestimate the Jin soldiers, but if they did not dare to underestimate them, it did not mean that they were afraid of them. The clay people still have three points of fire, not to mention these irascible Khitan men.

Some people came to Yeluzhao one after another, asking to take the initiative. Yelu Zhao pondered in his heart, if he returned to the Jin army at night, then there must be an ambush. But the night was quite quiet, and there was no movement of the Jin army at all. Yeluzhao was relieved, he couldn't stand it anymore, thinking that the other party would be 2ooo people at most, about the same as his own strength, so be careful that he might not be able to win. So, after being overwhelmed and harassed, he began to look forward to the return of the Jin army.

In the early morning of the next day, the sound of horses' hooves outside the city of Mayi, the Jin army came again.
