Chapter 195: Desperate Pursuit
The Khitan cavalry under Wuyuan City was suddenly attacked and suffered heavy losses, and the rest of them all fled in all directions with wolves running and urinating, just like sheep attacked by wolves, and only hated their parents for giving them one foot.
This change made the two daughters of Yan Mujin and Yueli Xin, who were surrounded by the Khitan generals in the middle, have ups and downs, plain faces and cold, and more still palpitations and fears.
I didn't expect this Zhu Li to be so yin and damaged, and even the hearts of the defeated army were so accurate, causing them to lose another game.
"Tap, Tap, ......"
Without waiting for the second daughter to sigh, the roaring sound of horses' hooves in the distance approached quickly, obviously the Yue cavalry led by Zhu Li pursued over.
"Two of you, hurry up, Zhu Li is going to kill us all." A Khitan general, with a frightened face and a cuckoo crying blood, pleaded with Yan Mujin and Yueli Xin.
"Yes, we are definitely not Zhu Li's enemies, two of you, please leave quickly." Another general immediately chimed in.
"Sanmoge, the Tang people have a good saying, 'If you stay in the green mountains, you are afraid that there will be no firewood'." Yue Lixin also looked at Yan Mujin with an anxious face, and admonished her, she didn't want to die, she had to live, and she had a reason to live.
......
In an instant, the Khitan general who had nowhere to speak out to convince him, made Yan Mujin's beautiful eyes, full of bloodshots, turn his head to look, the Khitan warriors who fled in panic under the rain of arrows, endured the sorrow in their hearts, and hissed: "Go, this account, I will ask Zhu Li for it sooner or later." ”
Without waiting for the Yue cavalry led by Zhu Li to approach, Yan Mujin and Yue Lixin took several Khitan generals and two or three thousand frightened Khitan cavalry, quickly bypassed Wuyuan City and galloped towards the northwest.
In fact, the Tang army at the head of the city was in a hurry, and they shot out three or four waves of arrow rain, their total number was only more than 5,000 people, and the infantry shooting was only more than 1,000 people, and the casualties of the Khitan people were only two or three thousand people.
I can't bear the fear of death, in the face of death, many Khitan warriors, where can they still take care of the direction, as long as they can get rid of the rain of arrows, they turn around and flee, no matter where they flee at all.
In addition, Zhu Li chased in a hurry, forcing Yan Mujin, Yue Lixin and others to gather everyone at all, so they could only pull out their horses and leave, and the rest of the rangers had no time to pay attention to them at all.
Zhu Li rode his horse to Wuyuan City to be frightened, and when he saw the corpses of the Khitans all over the ground, his brows furrowed slightly, he hurried to hurry up or was a step too late, waved his hand to call a lieutenant from the city, pointed to the headless flies, fled to the Khitan rangers in all directions, and said solemnly: "These people, you can't let them wander in Fengzhou, arrange people as soon as possible, and go to exterminate them." ”
"No" the lieutenant bowed his hand and answered the order very firmly.
After instructing the lieutenant again, Zhu Li immediately led Yue Qi and chased in the direction of Yan Mujin and the others.
There is only one direction to escape from Yanmujin, which is the northwest direction.
Because only there, there is a passage out of the customs, and the rest of the place is full of rolling mountains, Zhu Li does not think that in such a crisis situation, Yan Mujin and others will abandon their horses and go over the mountains.
The people on horseback, leaving the war horse, how much of their combat power can be left, Yan Mujin will definitely not be so stupid.
The rock mother flying on horseback
Jin's face turned purple, of course he was not excited, but aggrieved, this attack on Fengzhou was a big shame, and it also hurt his sister-in-law's family, all of whom were captured by the Tang army.
The fall of Wuyuan, the fate of Yelu Lupo, it is self-evident, Yan Mujin's current mood can be imagined, it is terrible.
Yueli Xin's heart was also uncomfortable, her husband was killed, and her situation among the Khitans was also very embarrassing.
She is not a Khitan nobleman, but an ordinary shepherd girl who grew up with Murong Ba, Murong Ba is amazingly talented and climbed to the position of tart horse marmoset, her wife has her current status by virtue of her husband, but her husband died in battle, which made her situation embarrassing.
"Sang, where are we going now?" Although she is full of bitterness, but now it is important to run for her life, Yue Li Xin's child is not yet an adult, if she dies in the pass, who will take care of her child, she must not die here, thinking of this, she opened her mouth and asked Xiang Yan Mujin.
"Take the high road, go straight to Saibei, the desert and grassland are our hunting grounds, as long as that Zhu Li dares to chase after him, in Saibei, I will make him pay the price of blood." Yan Mujin gritted her teeth, eager to eat Zhu Li's flesh and blood, and opened her mouth in response.
Yue Lixin, and several Khitan generals heard this, and nodded again and again, the grassland is the hunting ground of the cavalry, the most unfortunate, they can't beat the other party, and they also believe that they can escape.
Since entering Fengzhou, these Khitan elites have been led by Gao Su, and the advantages of the cavalry have not been brought into play at all, not to mention, they have all been used as sword and shield soldiers, which makes them feel very aggrieved.
Yan Mujin's words aroused the pride in their hearts, and these Khitan warriors believed that in the grassland and desert, they were still the warriors who made the tribe proud.
As long as Zhu Li dares to enter Saibei, with his familiarity with the vast wilderness and the yellow sand, it is not difficult to defeat the other party, this is the confidence of all Khitan people, I don't know if I can fulfill it.
Since Yan Mujin decided so, the Khitans all agreed, and they galloped all the way to the northwest and went straight to the direction of Gaoque.
Gaoque, is the gap between the big wolf mountain and the little wolf mountain, there is a valley road, can pass the north.
The history contains "its mountain is interrupted, the two sides of the strait are double, the good can be lifted, the hope is like a horse, the knot-like table, so there is the name of the high que." ”
During the Qin period, the general Meng Tian once sent troops out of Gaoque to attack the Xiongnu in the north, which was a key fortress in the Central Plains frontier.
But this fortress, but when Yanmu Jin and Shulu Pogu knocked on the pass, they were jointly mixed in the territory of Fengzhou Li Renfu, breached, and now it is a void, even the Khitans did not garrison a single soldier here.
The figure of the remnants of the Khitan soldiers, submerged into the deep valley of Gaoque, made Zhu Li's face even more ugly, this woman Yan Mujin is really slippery, it is even more slippery than a loach, it seems that it is not easy to catch her.
Out of the deep valley of the Gaoque Fortress, there is Saibei, which is a field at the northern foot of Yin Mountain, and according to the information found by the ghost guard, there is a Murowei tribe entrenched, among which the Di people are very fierce, and barbaric and ignorant.
Galloping here, Zhu Li stopped at the horse, and there was a rare trace of hesitation on his face, this look made Gao Siji look in his eyes, thinking that Zhu Li was going to give up the chase, so he hurriedly arched his hand and said: "General, this trip to Saiwaiji is unpredictable, according to the opinion of his subordinates, it is better to stop here, the Khitan 30,000 elites invaded Fengzhou, and now there are only two women left, fleeing with more than 1,000 people, I think they will not dare to make it easy in the future." ”
Zhu Li heard this,
With a wry smile on his face, Gao Siji was right, in this battle of Fengzhou, the Di people could be said to be a big defeat; But how could the other party know the importance of Yan Mujin?
This woman is the mother of the future hero Yelu Abaoji, if she is captured, at least it can affect the growth of the hero, people from later generations know that most of the children who lack the love of their parents are crippled in their hearts.
Zhu Li just detained Yan Mujin, this hero can't grow up healthily, as long as the other party's character is flawed, as the great enemy of the Khitans, the general of the Central Plains, he can follow his weakness, defeat and kill that person, of course, this is only the most intuitive result.
The most profound influence is still the clan where this hero belongs, a superior with a crippled heart, and the tribe under his leadership will not develop healthily, Zhu Li has no doubt about this.
If this woman is let go, Zhu Li has a grudge against her husband and a hatred for killing her husband, and even more with the future hero, how can this mother and son give up.
If they don't give up, then the Heshuo area under Zhu Li's control will not be able to live in peace.
As long as Yan Mujin escapes, this situation, almost certainly, will become a fact, the Khitan people's respect for filial piety is by no means inferior to the Han people, and even in many aspects, they have done a better job.
Didn't you see that after Meng Juehai killed Li Guochang, Li Keyong and Zhu Li never died, the father's hatred was not shared, for the ancients, the revenge of killing the father was endless, and it was absolutely impossible to reconcile.
If he can grasp the rock mother jin in his hands, for the future hero of the Khitan, Zhu Li will undoubtedly have a trump card that can be relied on.
Even if you want to catch the rock mother, this risk is very worth taking, and Zhu Li has a decision in her heart.
"Gao Siji listens to the order." Once a decision was made, Zhu Li was absolutely unambiguous and immediately shouted.
"The subordinates are here." Gao Siji was stunned for a moment, but immediately straightened his body and mind, and hurriedly surrendered his hand.
"I ordered you to lead a thousand tooth soldiers to guard Gaoque Sai, and the other Jilu Sai a few miles away should also be taken care of, until Gaosu and Zhang Jingda sent people to take over the two places."
"In the meantime, there is no room for loss here, can you do it?" Zhu Li turned his head and looked at Gao Siji solemnly.
"No, the subordinates use the heads as a guarantee, and the people are stuffed." Gao Siji generously promised.
The position of Gaoque is too important, during the Warring States Period, the initiator of Hufu cavalry archery, King Zhao Wuling, once built the Great Wall to Gaoque, here is the fortress of the Central Plains North Attack Di people, "one husband is the pass, ten thousand people are not open" is not a lie.
The importance of Gaoque Fortress is not only realized by King Zhao Wuling, but in the countless years that followed, all the emperors of all dynasties attached great importance to this place, and this is a fortress of great significance.
More than 2,000 more than 2,000 horses, Zhu Li once again left more than 1,000 to Gao Siji, even if he can't catch the rock mother, Gao Que Sai can no longer trap, the male is in his hand, and the people of Saibei Di are like lackeys, this is a point in the meaning of Gao Que Sai.
Zhu Li said that the intention of letting Gao Siji stay here was already very obvious, he wanted to pursue Yan Mujin, which made Gao Siji very puzzled, he didn't understand why Zhu Li attached so much importance to those two women.
Although he knew Zhu Li's intentions, he still asked, "Does the general want to continue to pursue the Khitans?" ”
"Yes, I must catch Yan Mujin, this woman is too important." After a few words and Gao Siji's explanation was not clear, Zhu Li dealt with it casually.
