Chapter 826

The ferry on the bank of the Yellow River in the east of Xingqing Prefecture, nearly 100 miles north of Huaizhou, and more than 70 miles south of Dingzhou, is very lively on the originally depressed river at this moment, and countless large and small ships are running back and forth.

The gentle and wide Yellow River did not make it difficult for these ships to pass, and it took less than a day for 28,000 of the 3,000 men and horses to cross the Yellow River to the west bank.

And here, Li Mao, Luo Ping, and Liang Shou are standing on the west bank of the Yellow River at the moment, and on this vast river beach, two thousand elite knights and another four thousand war horses carrying heavy loads are ready to go.

"Here, it's up to you." Li Mao bowed to Liang Shoushen.

"The two generals are here, be very cautious, don't be careless, once the plan fails, when you can quickly return to the ferry, Liang will definitely be able to keep the way back." After Liang Shou returned the salute, he said sincerely.

"This is natural, but General Liang, you don't expect us to have something good." Luo Ping, who was similar in age to Liang Shou, laughed, his mood was much more relaxed than that of Li Mao and Liang Shou.

"Of course, I hope that you can have smooth sailing and return victorious, but the worst plan is that the two generals must not be strong, otherwise, the last general will really have no face to go back and explain to General Zhe." Although Liang Shou is young, perhaps because of his long-term use of his brain, the Sichuan character pattern on his eyebrows is even deeper than Li Mao, who is more than ten years older than him.

"General Liang rest assured, the two of us still remember General Zhe's explanation, and we will definitely not dare to disobey it. Time is urgent, then the two of us will not stay longer and say goodbye......"

"Liang also has a heavy responsibility on his body, so I won't be far away, and the two generals have a smooth journey."

Liang Shou watched the two quickly blend into the large army, accompanied by the sound of thousands of horses galloping, and gradually drifted away, and his expression couldn't help but show a deep regret.

It's a pity that what I need to do is to be responsible for the back road, otherwise, there is really a kind of following these two people and rushing to the hinterland of Xingqing Mansion to burn and loot quickly, and wash away the evil spirit of the Liang family being slaughtered.

#####

Located in the Xixia Imperial Mausoleum seventy or eighty miles north of Xingqing Mansion, several ancestors up to Li Yuanhao are buried here, as well as the Western Xia lords after Li Yuanhao, including his youngest son Li Liangzuo, as well as Li Liangzuo's son, that is, Li Bingchang, the father of Li Qianshun, the current Western Xia lord.

More than a dozen large cemeteries of different heights and scales and tens of miles in radius were guarded by Wei Mingzhuo and his 1,000 foot soldiers.

Originally, there should be at least 2,000 elites here, and there will be 200 elite cavalry guards. However, due to the loss of troops and heavy losses in Great Xia, the two hundred elite cavalry were transferred away early.

After that, the lord Li Qianshun decided to raise a large army to the south, and from the defenders of the imperial tomb, the original 2,000 elites were transferred, and they were replaced by some old and weak people who were re-recruited after being discharged from the army.

The youngest were only three years younger than Wei Ming, who was over fifty years old, and one leg was lame from going to war......

This made Wei Mingclumsy almost blow up his lungs, but after all, this place is located in the hinterland of Xingqing Mansion, surrounded by party tribes, since the imperial tomb was built into a garden, there has been no banditry, and no tomb robbers who don't open their eyes dare to come here arrogantly, coupled with the strict order of the lord of the country, he didn't dare to disobey Wei Mingclumsy ten heads.

It's just that there are less than 800 of these thousand, old, weak, sick and disabled soldiers, who really have any major events, and can wear armor and armor to deal with the scene.

But fortunately, the perennial leisure has also made Wei Mingclum, who has been responsible for guarding the imperial tomb for nearly twenty years, gradually return to his former indifference after the final anger.

However, it was close to noon, but Wei Mingclumsy had not yet waited for the return of the patrol team responsible for patrolling the imperial tomb and the surrounding area in the morning.

"What's the matter, did this kid get drunk last night, and take the team to some hell for me today?" Wei Mingclumsy paced around the room with some annoyance.

"Father, why don't your son bring some people over to look for it?" Ayong stood up, and the young man, who was only in his early twenties, suggested to the head of the Imperial Mausoleum.

"It's okay, go and find that bastard, let him bring someone back to me quickly, this is an extraordinary time, we are responsible for taking care of the imperial tomb, if there is any errand, the head of the whole family will fall off, no one will stand up and say a good word for us, understand?" Wei Mingclumsy nodded helplessly, and specially admonished again.

"When the child knows, he will be cautious." He jumped up excitedly, saluted his father, and then rushed out of the room, and soon summoned two hundred foot soldiers under his command, jumped on horseback and led the troops.

At this moment, in the north of the imperial tomb, after leading the troops to patrol here, Wei Ming Ah Song, who had a headache because of yesterday's hangover, ordered to rest here, and he leaned on a big tree for more than an hour, and then woke up leisurely.

Raising his eyes and looking at the hot sun in the sky, he couldn't help patting his head with some annoyance, it seemed that he was afraid that he had slept and missed the hour, so he must have returned to the camp, and he would have to be scolded by his uncle.

He stretched his waist, stood up, and scolded the soldiers who were stumbling and hiding under the trees to be lazy, and only after a long time did he take care of the team and continue to walk eastward.

However, what none of them noticed was that on a mountain beam about two miles away from them, a dazzling flash of light flashed.

"They've started to move, how about it, should we do it?" One of the battalion rulers lowered the binoculars in his hand and asked Luo Ping.

"It seems that the defenders of this imperial tomb are really getting worse and worse, since we are here to lure the enemy, then we must not show too much strength, so let's do it, you lead two hundred cavalry, but remember, don't rush to kill them all, otherwise no one will go back to report the news, and we won't be able to transfer the tiger away from the mountain." Luo Ping thought for a moment and gave instructions.

"The last general obeys the order, you, and you, come with me......" The battalion commander pursed his lips excitedly, turned around and picked two heads, and in less than half a cup of tea, two hundred cavalry had already assembled, quietly crossed the mountain beam, and rushed towards the defenders of the imperial tomb led by Wei Ming Ah Song.

When Ah Song heard the sound of hooves behind him and turned his head, this murderous iron horse almost scared Ah Song on the spot.

Subconsciously waved his horsewhip, and galloped directly from the middle of the team to the front, ignoring the already chaotic foot soldiers, and led the two officers with horses to the distance at a galloping speed.

The sound of weapons crashing behind him, the screams and wails of the soldiers on the verge of death, could not affect the speed of the fastest rider of the Imperial Tomb.
