Chapter 678: Hunting
"Your Majesty, the front is Yunzhou to the east, and the west should be the direction of General Boyan's march, but the route that General Boyan walked, I don't know now, may I ask your lord, where are we going now?" At the entrance of the grassland, Li Jing's face was pale, there was a trace of tiredness in his eyes, and the same was true of the soldiers behind him, Hua Rong's entire body was covered with dust, and his handsome face was already blocked by dust.

"Go to Boyan, let people release the harrier eagle, find the direction of the army, although the Jin people are fierce, but the Jin people can't contribute, they will just wait for Boyan and the Tatars to divide the victory and defeat, and then they will intervene in the battle." Li Jing understood the situation, and pointed to the distance with the long lance in his hand and said.
Defeat the Jin people, with the soldiers and horses in their hands may not be possible, and it will definitely consume a lot of time, the soldiers and horses in the hands of Boyan are still in a weak position compared to the Tatars, only to find Boyan first, destroy the Tatars first, and the Jin will retreat without a fight.
"Yes." Hua Rong didn't dare to slack off, and asked the eagle man to quickly release the harrier eagle, and saw four harrier eagles rising into the sky, divided into four directions, looking down on the earth, looking for traces on the ground, and Li Jing asked his subordinates to slow down at this time, while resting, while looking for the Boyan army.
Under the city of Yunzhou, there was a strange situation, Xiao Wei led a large army to garrison Yunzhou, and the 70,000 troops led by Wanyan Zongwang were stationed under the city, staring at each other, but in the distance, it was Chai Erniang who led 90,000 troops, and Yunzhou became a horn.
"Although Wanyan Zongwang's army has not sent troops, he has already divided his troops to attack the prefectures and counties, and the cities east of Yunzhou have fallen into the hands of the Jin people, although the herdsmen have withdrawn a lot, but they are still suffering heavy losses." In the camp, Chai Erniang sat behind several cases, and standing in front of him was Brother Xiao Wei, talking about the surrounding situation.
"The Jin people attacked my Yunzhou, but they besieged but did not attack, attacked but did not fight, and specifically dealt with the surrounding cities, why is this?" Chai Erniang asked.
The last general thought that in fact, the Jin people attacked another conspiracy. What they want to fight is not Yunzhou, but the grassland. Brother Xiao Wei thought for a while and said: "The minister once sent dozens of people into the grassland to look for General Boyan to come to the rescue, but so far, there is no trace of General Boyan, and the minister thinks that it is not that General Boyan did not come to the rescue, but that my helpers did not reach General Boyan at all, and they were killed, and even the Jin people have sent a group of people to block the place where the Bai Dadan people live." So we can't get into the grassland. ”
"This is obviously to cut off the connection between Yunzhou and the grassland, and to prevent the support of the grassland for Yunzhou, is it possible that the Jin people are all out to seize Yunzhou?" Chai Erniang asked again.
"This, the minister thinks it is unlikely." Brother Xiao Wei hesitated for a while, not daring to say too much.
"Niangniang, the minister thinks that there are so many forces on the grassland, it is possible that the Jin people can't unite a force and drag General Boyan." Lin Chong couldn't help but speak.
"In other words, we can't get the support of General Boyan for the time being. Now we have 120,000 horses on our side, although some of them are new soldiers, and in the face of 70,000 gold men, they may not be without the strength to fight. Chai Erniang looked at Brother Xiao Wei and said: "The Jin people are very powerful, but I know the importance of the grassland to the king, if we lose the grassland, we will lose the depth, lose the grassland, we just go to the source of war horses, just for these, we also want to defeat the Jin people in front of us and seize the grassland." ”
Brother Xiao Wei hesitated for a while, the strength of the Jin people He once followed Li Jing and saw it when he was in Youzhou, he didn't think that his current soldiers and horses could help Yan Zongwang's cavalry, it was tens of thousands of cavalry, and the cavalry in his hands was not enough at all. It's just that in the face of Chai Erniang, there is no way to refute it.
"Could it be that we can't just stick to Yunzhou like this?" Chai Erniang looked at everyone with some dissatisfaction, although the army of more than 100,000 was not the opponent of the Jin people in the wild, but defending Yunzhou like this was obviously not what Chai Erniang wanted. She led the army to the expedition, thinking about making contributions, at least she couldn't let the world look down on her Chai Erniang.
"Niangniang, I think that although the Jin people are powerful, if we line up according to the city wall, we may not have a chance to fight." Lu Zhishen said loudly: "This golden man is also a shoulder with a head, and it is nothing remarkable. Niangniang, the last will be willing to be a pioneer. ”
"Yes, are you still afraid of Jinren?" Lin Chong also said loudly. The generals spoke one after another, looking like they didn't put Jin Ren in their eyes at all, as if Lao Tzu was the best in the world.
Brother Xiao Wei and other Khitan generals were calm, quietly watching the generals of the Han army compete for the position of vanguard, Brother Xiao Wei showed a smile at the corner of his mouth, for these generals, he was not bad, but he didn't believe that these people could defeat the Jin people, thinking how powerful the elite of the Jin people was, even Li Jing was almost defeated in the hands of the Jin people, he didn't believe that these Han generals could be more powerful than Li Jing. It's just that he didn't want to say these words, just stood quietly aside.
Chai Erniang held back the excitement in her heart, and wanted to lead the army to fight with the Jin people immediately, but looking at Brother Xiao Wei, who was silent, she quickly pressed the thoughts in her heart, and she didn't forget what she was here for.
"What do you generals think of the comparison with the king?" Chai Erniang finally spoke, she didn't say what the crowd would do, but just compared everyone with Li Jing, and everyone was suddenly silent.
"How can the last generals be compared to the king?" After Lin Chong was silent, he suddenly knew what Chai Erniang was thinking, his face was slightly red, and Luda and the others no longer said that they wanted to take the initiative to attack.
"Even the king should be cautious about the Jin people, and he didn't dare to have any slackness, for fear of being taken advantage of by the enemy, and the soldiers would be lost, the king led the Guards, and the Guards suffered countless casualties, and now you are leading the infantry, do you think you can fight against the cavalry of the Jin people?" Chai Erniang said solemnly. In fact, she also secretly warned herself in her heart.
"What the mother said is very true." When the generals heard this, they were ashamed and bowed their heads.
"General Xiao, what do you think?" Chai Erniang looked at Brother Xiao Wei and asked.
"The infantry defended the city, and the cavalry roamed out. Wait for the opportunity to weaken the main power of the Jin people. Brother Xiao Wei thought for a while and said: "Our only advantage is that we have a strong city like Yunzhou to hold onto, and there is no shortage of grain and grass. ”
"Well, the infantry was originally a defensive city, and the infantry was not as good as the cavalry in the field, and General Xiao could lead the cavalry to wander outside." Chai Erniang nodded and said.
