"I didn't expect him to be one step ahead!" Zhao Gou looked at the battle post in his hand and smiled teasingly, and he meant the same.

Ever since he learned about Xiao Pu's situation, Zhao Gou wanted to meet him. Moreover, Xiao Pu attacked the Song camp at night, this courage is commendable, and he can retreat with his whole body, and he injured less than 1,000 people in the Song army, and even seriously injured Li Kui, which also impressed him.

At the same time, Xiao Puda also wanted to meet Zhao Gou. As long as it is a big battle in which Zhao Gou personally participated, there has never been a defeat, and the conquest of the Great Liao has won one after another, while the Liao army can only be defeated with its tail between its legs, unable to stop Zhao Gou's pace.

Xiao Puda used 3,000 soldiers, but he didn't use it enough, and only 2,000 troops made the Song army suffer a big loss, and when Wang Gui and others retreated, Xiao Puda's words made Zhao Gou understand that his purpose was to lure himself out, that is, he had found out that he was not in the camp.

Thinking of this, Zhao Gou immediately contacted the spies of the Liao army who were very familiar with the terrain of this place, and how simple it was to find out the movements of himself and others, and they made full use of their innate advantages to make the Song army somewhat passively beaten. If you want to turn things around, you have to make the spies undetectable.

Then, Zhao Gou sent an order, ordering the patrol soldiers to expand the range to three li, two by two, each group of fifty people, and then let the army disperse and station, while the marshal's tent was in the center, that is, directly facing Jinshan County.

It can be said that although Zhao Gou's move is a bit risky, the effect is very significant. Sure enough, the Liao spies could only withdraw to three miles away to investigate, while other news of the army was unknown. Because if you get a little closer, you will alarm the soldiers everywhere, and in the end, the gains will outweigh the losses.

"This Song Army Coach is really not to be underestimated!" Xiao Pu was slightly stunned when he heard the spies' report, and then smiled. This is not a mocking laugh, but a sincere laughter, because he has met an opponent, a real general will meet a good talent, and a chess opponent will meet an opponent, which is an indescribable joy.

"General, what are we going to do next?"

Xiao Pu laughed and said, "Since they have already thought of countermeasures, then we can only go with the flow and respond to all changes without change." The Song army expanded the patrol range, which means that they already knew that our spies were nearby, and if they continued to probe forward, it would inevitably attract the attention of the Song army, and the gains outweighed the losses. ”

"Now the plan can only go with the flow, don't alarm the Song army for the time being. Also, you give the order down to cheer up the spies. If we can't find out the situation of the Song army, then it is impossible for the Song army to know the situation of our army, everything can only depend on their own abilities. ”

"By the way, tomorrow I will meet with the commander of the Song army in Shilipo, when the time comes, you can go with me, and the others will stay in the city, don't go out easily."

"General, what should the Song army do if it goes back on its word?" Xiao Puda's generals were a little worried, the Song people had already done a lot of treacherous things, so they were worried, if there was really something long and two short, what should it be.

Xiao Pu smiled calmly and replied firmly: "If it is someone else, it may be, but Zhao Gou will not!" ”

"Why?" Everyone was stunned, they didn't understand where Xiao Puda's confidence came from, and they felt that the Song people would not go back on their word.

"Because that's what I do, then the opponent I admire won't be a sinister villain." Xiao Puda smiled confidently, he prides himself on not being a decent man, but he will not send troops to encircle and suppress at this time, let alone use any cunning methods to win, this is not his intention.

In the camp of the Song army, the same situation was encountered, and everyone suspected that there was a conspiracy to meet tomorrow, and Zhao Gou's answer was also somewhat similar to Xiao Puda, he smiled and said: "He is not the kind of treacherous villain, as the commander of the Jinyang Army, military talent alone is far from enough, but also has a noble character, this is the feeling he gave me." ”

Then, everyone couldn't say anything, everything could only follow Zhao Gou's orders, and Zhao Yougong would also go with him, and go out with him tomorrow. Because the battle post said that only the two of them could lead troops to see each other, but they could not fight, they just talked to each other, and it could also be said to be a kind of negotiation.

The next day, Zhao Gou and Xiao Puda both set off from their respective camps!

As for Song Jiang, Lu Junyi and others, they guarded the base camp to prevent the enemy from sneaking up, while Yue Fei, Lin Chong and others led an army of 5,000 people to follow all the way. As for the Liao army, the same is true, they are not worried about the commanders of the two armies meeting, if there are any three longs and two shortcomings, they can't afford to take this responsibility.

Zhao Gou and Xiao Puda met each other on horseback in Shilipo, and the two did not have a tense scene, as if they were friends who had not been seen for a long time, looked at each other and smiled, and dismounted one after another, which made everyone stunned, and thought that they were going to fight, but they didn't expect to sit on the ground, and the two looked up to the sky and laughed.

"What's going on?" Suddenly, everyone was stunned!

The deputy general who followed Xiao Puda was also his cousin, and he was also a general who could fight well, and his and Zhao Yougong's eyes were straight, and they couldn't say a word for a long time. After all, this is really a once-in-a-lifetime situation.

The two belong to different camps, and they can be said to be enemies of life and death, how can they see such a situation now, so that they all feel that Zhao Gou and Xiao Pu are not enemies, but more like friends, or that kind of confidants, which makes everyone confused, and they can't understand what the situation is.

"I didn't expect the famous Song Army Marshal to be so young, he is really young and promising, a hero is a young man!" Xiao Puda was also stunned at the first sight of Zhao Gou, he didn't expect Zhao Gou to be so young, and the coach of the Song Army, who had been rumored to be much younger than himself, made him a little crying and laughing, but he admired it deeply.

Zhao Gou also said with a smile: "General Xiao is not bad, for the first time, our army was damaged, and we can still retreat with our whole body, you can be regarded as the first." It's just that General Xiao is getting stronger and stronger, and the more he fights, the more courageous he becomes, and Jiang is still old and spicy! ”

Xiao Puda laughed and said: "Jiang is still old and spicy, what he said is really right!" ”

Xiao Puda was not angry or annoyed, but accepted it happily. Because he could hear it, this was Zhao Gou's praise. Because Zhao Gou knew at first glance that Xiao Puda was over thirty years old and was about to enter his forties, it can also be said that he is a real veteran of the battlefield.

Then, Zhao Gou and Xiao Puda both ordered them to go down and let them bring things up. Zhao Yougong took a jar of fine wine, and Xiao Zhengming took a pot of mare's milk wine. Moreover, Zhao Yougong and Xiao Zhengming also sat down together.

"This is the wine of our dynasty, it is the wine given by the emperor, can General Xiao taste it!"

Xiao Pu laughed and said, "It's better to be respectful than to obey!" It just so happens that I also have the emperor's wine here, but we Liao people drink mare's milk wine, I wonder if you can taste it? ”

Zhao Gou happily agreed, and the two of them exchanged all each other's wines, and Zhao Yougong and Xiao Zhengming also joined in. Zhao Gou and Zhao Yougong drank mare's milk wine, and Xiao Puda and Xiao Zhengming drank imperial wine. This is the idea that the two of them agreed on, there was no discussion at all, but in the eyes of everyone, it was like a discussion, they actually brought wine, as if they were having a happy gathering, and they talked about wine directly on the battlefield, which was really strange and strange!
