A few days later, to the south of Longqing Mansion, near the vicinity of Zitong County in Fuzhou, outside the ruined city, a group of men and horses suddenly appeared.

This team of about five or six hundred people, one-color Mongolian horses, leather robes and soft boots, back bow Hoge, fierce momentum.

They first went around inside and outside the dilapidated Zitong County, which has been plagued countless times, and there is not much trouble, except for a few Song people who were hidden in the ruined houses in the city, they did not grab anything, these people are really unwilling to go away because of their homeland, and they live by digging some wild vegetables, where can they take out how much property.

The rules of Mongolian iron cavalry are that if you grab something, you have to kill, and if you can't grab something, you have to kill people, so on the remnants of the city wall of Zitong City, there are dozens of hanging bloody corpses out of thin air.

After running around the wall, the centaur monster screamed and drove away, heading for the next target.

In the dense forest outside the city, there were several pairs of eyes staring coldly at the group of horses, and after seeing the direction they were going, they waited for a while before they stood up and galloped away in the forest.

These people are accustomed to walking on the mountains, their legs and feet are very fast, they climb mountains and wade through rivers effortlessly, and the steep slopes of Liangzi are like walking on the ground under their feet, and they have walked for a while, and in another forest, they have blown a few unique whistles towards the sky.

Immediately someone came out of the woods, followed each other, whispered in their ears for a while, and then they parted ways, each going in different directions.

This is the unique relay transmission method of Shimen Fan Dark Ghosts, which is connected to each other, relay transmission, and the speed of news exchange is much faster than before, and which batch of dark ghosts released has a problem, others can quickly know, which really improves efficiency.

So the news of the Mongols in Zitong reached the ears of Changsun Hong half a day later.

When he received the news, he was sitting with a group of generals in a mountain col on the edge of Fuzhou north of Chengdu Province to roast a fire.

The flames were blazing, and the small felt tent in this mountain col was baked warm.

At one end of the tent, a large cloth map is hung, and the black and red lines outline the terrain of the whole Sichuan, the mountains and rivers, and the castles and forts.

Some small red flags cut from red flannel are nailed to the cloth with small nails, and there are more than ten places, scattered around the small black dots representing Longqing Mansion.

Changsun Hong and the others gathered in front of the map and pointed at the little red flag.

"The latest news this morning, the northern captives of Longqing Mansion finally couldn't bear it anymore, and they divided more than a dozen rangers out and began to fight grass valleys in the surrounding areas." From the hand of a young senator who walked in, Changsun Hong took a small red flag and pressed it on the cloth: "The nearest one has reached the Zenith Fort, which is less than thirty miles away from us. ”

A group of generals followed his hand, searched the map with their eyes, did not speak, and listened quietly, among them, there were Shimen Fan generals, and there were also generals such as Liu Quan and Ai Zhongxiao, who were the military generals of the Sichuan Envoy Division.

"It's good that they're willing to come out, I thought they would be cautious this winter and stay still." Changsun Hong said with a smile, and nodded on the location of Longqing Mansion on the map, arousing a chuckle around him: "Since they are willing to come out, then we can't be polite, what should be eaten, eat it cleanly!" ”

The last word was accented, with a resolute firmness, and the chuckle immediately stopped, and everyone's breathing began to rapid.

"Everyone, please see, this is the city of Longqingfu, which has been burned to rubble, and the city wall has also been torn down, and the Mongols are afraid that we will hold on to the city, and they hate it, so every time they go to the city, the first thing is to tear down the city wall, they don't know, this is actually a double-edged sword, that is, it is convenient for them, and it is convenient for us."

Changsun Hong glanced at everyone: "If they hide behind the city wall, we will attack the fortification, and we can't sneak attack, but it will be troublesome." Now they live in tents in the wilderness, and there is not even a trench, do you know what they think? ”

Ai Zhongxiao spoke coldly and said: "The Northern Captives think that they are invincible in the field, and we Song people are only good at defending the city, and we can't defeat them when we go out of the city, so we do this." ”

"Exactly!" Changsun Hong restrained his smile and said gloomily: "The Beiyu look down on us, this kind of posture is contempt, we have to let them see this time, in the field, we can also defeat the Beiyu on horseback!" ”

Everyone roared, their eyes were hot, and they looked at Changsun Honghuo like a group of meat-loving wolves.

"The dark ghost of Shimen has been clearly investigated, there are more than 2,000 people in the north of Jianmen area, there are not many Mongolians, most of them are Han people who surrendered in the past, and then go north, cross Yangping Pass to Hanzhong, there is a large camp of the northern captives, and the marshal of the southern capital Tahai is stationed there with tens of thousands of soldiers, but the northern captives are infighting, you are dragged by the western expedition, Tahai is swaying, not very at ease, I heard that this person has the heart to return to Helin and participate in the struggle for rights, if this is really the case, it is a good time for us to recover Lizhou!"

The eldest grandson Hong smiled cruelly, and his eyes were murderous: "Lizhou is the root of my Great Song Dynasty's resistance to the Jin Kingdom for many years, as long as it is recaptured, the three passes are in hand, and the immortal achievements made by Wu Jie, everyone present has the hope of reappearing!" ”

The atmosphere was ignited, the blood boiled in the tent, and there was a humane: "My lord, what should we do now?" Please give the order to send, we will give up our lives and forget our deaths, and live up to our expectations! ”

"That's right! Sword mountain and sea of fire, never give up! ”

"I wish to make immortal contributions with my lords!"

Changsun Hong stretched out his hand and pressed it in the air, and said in a deep voice: "Hanzhong is a bone, and Longqing Mansion is not a piece of meat to gnaw. For the northern captives, we have to face up to their cavalry tactics, so I will use some means, and I hope you will work together with me to go through the difficulties! Lord Wang Kui originally wanted to fight this battle with us, but he was the envoy of the system, and he had to be the master of all things in Sichuan, so he really couldn't get out of it. Therefore, in this campaign, I will be the main general, everyone, and listen to the order! ”

The tent was silent, and everyone listened attentively.

Outside the tent, the silent col is quiet, the leaves are waving, at first glance it seems to be just an ordinary mountain, but if you look closer, you can hear the low voice of people and horses, 20,000 Song troops, in this early spring time, quietly lying here.

The black armor of one color, although there are many people, but no one makes a loud noise, the valley is quiet, even the cooking smoke has been treated, it is a little farther away to see clearly, a group of patrolling soldiers patrol around the camp, the soldiers in the camp tent silently wipe their weapons and maintain their armor, and the solemn and tense air echoes over the forest.

Outside the camp, in the dark place with dense leaves, countless dark ghosts in black leather armor lurked, and they sprinkled very openly, bringing the area dozens of miles away from this col into the scope of surveillance, and they could react immediately if there was a slight disturbance.

Such silence remained for the rest of the day.

The next morning, after a sound of footsteps, the col was empty, and the birds flew by, and the morning dew was hazy, as if there had never been an army in the col.
