The Liao army was defeated in Zha Zhishui, and the atmosphere in the Ningjiang Prefecture Mansion was a little tense, Xiao Wuna said anxiously: "The first battle is unfavorable, Yelu Xie is the deputy general of the battlefield who is killed, and the female direct soldiers are fierce, how is this good?" The Great Medicine Master Slave was speechless for a moment.

At this time, the Tanmalay newspaper said that there were female soldiers and horses in the forest west of the city. Xiao Wuna asked eagerly, "How many people are there?" The detective said: "The number is unknown." ”

Xiao Wuna ordered to investigate and report again, and Tanma turned around and left the house in a hurry.

The Great Medicine Master Slave sighed: "I have only a few hundred people with the defenders, and they are all old soldiers who have not fought for a long time, and now the thieves are in full swing, so we must strictly guard the state city to avoid its edge." ”

The Urna asked, "What do you mean?" The Great Medicine Master said: "According to the fool's opinion, it is the best policy to stick to the waiting party." ”

Xiao Wuna snorted and said: "Ah Gu is menacing, you can't fight with it to avoid its edge for the time being, only by sticking to the city and not losing it is your and my work." If so, I have an explanation in front of the emperor, otherwise you and I will be able to escape the blame. ”

He glanced at the tart and said: "From today on, this official will appoint you as the deputy general to defend the state city, pass on my orders, strengthen the patrol and defend the city, strictly check the people who enter and exit, and kill those who are suspected of being thieves." "Tart didn't also take the order and left.

The Jurchen army won the first battle and its morale was greatly boosted. On this day, Ah Gu was planning to capture Ningjiang Prefecture in the camp, and suddenly the guards entered the account to report that Lord Xiyin and Zong Han Bo Jin had arrived, and Ah Gu called the two to enter the account.

Xi Yin Shili said: "The chief has worked hard. Zong Han fell down and bowed. Ah Guda hurriedly helped him up and said, "Why should the virtuous nephew be formal, please get up quickly." Zong Han got up, and the three of them sat down.

Ah Gu said: "You two are not in the army, there must be something important to come here. Xi Yin said: "There is indeed something important, the god of grains is entrusted by the minister of the country, and he has come to congratulate." "Congratulations? What is He's there? Akuda asked rhetorically.

"When the minister heard about the great victory in the first battle, he was so happy that he couldn't sleep all night, and the soldiers ran to tell each other that he killed Yelu Xie and defeated the Liao army, isn't this worth congratulating?" Hee-in looked very excited when he spoke.

As soon as his words fell, Zong Han picked up the words and said: "Yes, my army has reached the Liao realm, and the morale of the first battle has been greatly boosted, and the destruction of Liao will start from here, and my father specially sent me two to congratulate." This battle shows that my Wanyan disciples are brave and invincible, and the momentum of Jin Ge Iron Horse is like a rainbow; The Guanliao army is scattered like ants, and it will collapse at the touch of a button, which is protected by the heavens, and the Lord is blessed by the Lord. ”

Ah Gu said: "What else? ”

Zong Han replied without thinking: "There is also the same heart from top to bottom, and the soldiers serve their lives." Ah Gu said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes." ”

Xi Yin also hit the railway while it was hot: "Chief, with such a victory, the god of grains has a word, I don't know whether to talk about it or not?" ”

Ah Gu said with a straight face: "But if you say that you have no defense, why bother to bend the bend?" Xi Yin said: "Then forgive the god of grains, my Jurchen generals have strong morale, and the first battle is exciting, why don't I take advantage of this time to be the emperor, open a generation of great undertakings and make great achievements, this is a move that is in line with the will of heaven and the people, I don't know what the will of the lord is?" ”

Xi Yin said everything he wanted to say in one go, and Zong Han lost no time in interjecting: "This is not only the idea of the two of us, but also the intention of my father." ”

Ah Gu inquired, and said with a slight smile: "The two of you, called the emperor and the country, didn't this chief not think that this small victory will be called the emperor, won't the world say that I am shallow and laughing and generous?" The top priority at the moment is not to establish the country as an emperor but to quickly capture Ningjiang Prefecture and expand the territory with prestige, as for the emperor that is in the future. ”

Xi Yin nodded and said, "Although what the chief said makes sense, we can't wait. ”

Ah Gu laughed and said, "This chief is not in a hurry, why should you be in a hurry?" Uncle clan, now is not the time to talk about these things, or that sentence, the top priority is to capture Ningjiang Prefecture. ”

The Mingtong River poured for thousands of miles, and a large boat slowly sailed to the north bank. A man on the boat led the horse off the boat, and as soon as he turned around and stepped onto the horse, he disappeared into the depths of the vast grassland in an instant. This person is the Jurchen Meticulous Works, returning from Pennsylvania.

He galloped all the way and came to the Jurchen camp in less than an hour. He left the saddle and dismounted his horse and went straight to the big tent to report the news to Aguta.

Ah Guta learned that the Liao civil and military generals in Penn Prefecture drank and had fun all day long, and no one was mobilized, and there was no sign of reinforcement of Ningjiang Prefecture.

As a precaution, Ah Guda said to Xi Yin: "Let Zong Han go back and tell the Minister of State that he still has to defend strictly by the river, you stay and supervise the construction of the cloud ladder, and the day after tomorrow before the third watch, and build a military merit roster, neither of these two things can be mistaken." ”

Xi Yin said: "Chief, rest assured, the god of grains will do everything according to it, and if there is any delay in military law!" ”

Ah Guta said to Zong Han again: "In the battle of Zha Zhishui, he was presented to the prime minister by the mount of the Ten Divine Horses of Yelu Xie as a commemoration of the victory of the first battle of Xingshi against Liao. ”

Zong Han knelt down and said, "Nephew, thank you, chief!" Zong Han thanked him, got up and led the horse away.

Ah Guta immediately summoned everyone to come to the big tent to discuss the matter.

The city of Ningjiang Prefecture was full of smoke and miasma, mixed with the soldiers to transport bricks and stones to the city, demolished the houses and clashed with the people.

An old woman was pushed down by the soldiers and scolded: "you, tear it down!" The old woman scratched her hands and wept bitterly: "God, if my room is demolished, where can I live?" ”

The soldiers demolished the houses to prepare the wood for the city, and the scene was chaotic for a while. At this time, the Great Medicine Master Nu was accompanying Xiao Wuna to inspect the defense at the head of the city.

When Xiao Wuna saw Tart, he also asked about the preparation of defense, and Tart Bu also reported that the rolling wood and stone had been prepared according to the instructions of the adults. So, the two walked forward, and from time to time they saw piles of rocks and rolling logs on the top of the city, and the soldiers were still carrying them one after another.

Xiao Wuna was secretly proud in his heart, "Hmph, Ah Gu can only send me to death if I attack Ningjiang Prefecture!" The great pharmacist slave said: "Our army was defeated in the battle of Zhazhishui, and the thieves were flourishing at this time, and if you want to hold Ningjiang Prefecture, you must ask the emperor for reinforcements." ”

The words of the great medicine master slave reminded Xiao Wuna, so he hurriedly sent a cursive letter to Gyeongju.

Besides, Ah Gu was in the big tent, and he was anxious because the grain and grass were not delivered in time, and the generals were speechless.

Ah Guda suddenly raised his eyebrows and said, "Quickly pass him in." ”

Wu Qimai strode into the tent, and half-knelt down and said: "Report to the chief, brother Wu Qimai escorted the grain and grass to arrive." ”

Ah Gu smiled and smiled: "Fourth brother, please hurry up, how much grain and grass are transported?" Wu Qimai stood up and said, "Twenty stones of rice, fifty carts of forage." Alas, the people have no food, thanks to the Bolu fire running hundreds of miles every day, getting up early and greedy late to collect. ”

When Ah Guda heard this, he said with emotion: "What a loyal Boluhuo." ”

The grain and grass were safe, Ah Gu looked at the generals and said: "In the first battle of Zhashui, Yelu Xie lost ten lives in Huangquan, and my soldiers won the first battle with their lives." How can Tianzuo ignore it, once hundreds of thousands of troops are overwhelmed, how can I meet the enemy with 2,500 men and horses? The top priority at the moment was to take advantage of the arrival of the Liao army to capture Ningjiang Prefecture in one fell swoop. ”

He stood up, drew a few times on the desk with a charcoal stick, raised his head and said to everyone, "Come and see." ”

The crowd gathered around the table, and Ah Gu pointed his fingers and said: "This is a piece of water, it is our military station, and fifty miles west is Ningjiang Prefecture City, where there are more than 1,000 people and horses from Xiao Wuna, plus the mixed army is less than 3,000, and the strength is comparable to me." The morale of our army in the first battle is high, and the defenders of Ningjiang cannot be compared, which is the advantage of our army; The disadvantage is that I attack him and defend, and even if I win, I have to pay a big price. Less than 20 miles northwest of the city is the ancient city of Dalu, and 40 miles north of the Yazi River, which is the important town of Liao. ”

After clarifying the location of Ningjiang Prefecture and analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of the two armies, Aguta ordered the generals to listen to the order. ordered Zonggan to lead 300 elite soldiers to attack the north gate of Ningjiang Prefecture; Ordered Zongwang to lead 300 elite soldiers to besiege its south gate; Ordered Lou Room and Di Gu to go out of the West Gate, and he followed the oblique and Xi did not lose the main attack on the East Gate. Tonight, the third watch cooks, and the fifth watch sets off.
