"Your uncle! …… Those who have the ability to do a battle with a knife and a gun, and those who come to the yin are what kind of heroes and heroes! Li Kui was dragged away by Wang Gui and Niu Gao, but he was really angry, and he had experienced a lot of battles large and small, and he had never suffered such a loss.

Not only did the 1,000 soldiers who had brought it over suffer heavy losses, but there were less than a hundred people left, and they fled in a hurry. As a pioneer general, Li Kui has an unshirkable responsibility, if he hadn't pursued him relentlessly, he would not have lost more than half of his troops.

"Brother Iron Bull!" Niu Gao saw that Li Kui was still scolding non-stop, and stopped him from continuing to abuse. No matter how much he scolded, there was no way to recover the brothers who died in the battle, so he could only keep his mouth shut, and then said: "With the loss of more than 900 people this time, Tie Niu, you still have to think about how to face the accountability of the commander." ”

Li Kui was pierced through the chest by an arrow, and in a fit of rage, he pulled out the cold arrow, causing blood to flow down from the wound, and his clothes were already stained red with blood. He was taken away by Wang Gui and Niu Gao, and with a tenacious perseverance, he passed out at this moment.

Niu Gao shouted a few times, and saw that Li Kui did not agree, and only after the last look did he know that the matter was serious, so he hurried back. At the same time, Xiao Pu's voice also reached their ears, only to feel a little harsh, and it was even more naked in the face.

Niu Gao and Wang Guiqiang held back the anger in their hearts and hurried back to the camp without stopping.

After the concerted efforts of the army, the fire was finally extinguished, but the Song army camp was actually attacked by the Liao, which made them a little angry and humiliated. Since the army was sent to attack Liao, something that has never happened this time, and I have experienced it myself.

When everyone saw the sound of horses' hooves, they immediately stepped forward, only to see Niu Gao, Wang Gui and others coming, as well as Li Kui, who had passed out. Then, Song Jiang immediately ordered the military doctor to come for diagnosis and treatment, and after the military doctor briefly treated the wound, the bleeding stopped, and then cleaned the wound again.

The military doctor hurriedly dealt with it and finally breathed a sigh of relief, but Li Kui was still unconscious, and his lips had turned white from excessive blood loss. Everyone saw that less than a hundred soldiers and horses brought out by Li Kui survived, and Li Kui himself almost died, which made the camp after a fire fall silent for a while.

"It's still prescient to be handsome, and this person has to be cautious!" Military advisor Wu frowned, and said with a solemn face: "This battle is still waiting for the commander to come, and then we will discuss how to attack; In addition, we need to send more soldiers on patrol so that this kind of thing does not happen again. ”

Since Li Kui was unconscious, they didn't want to stay here longer, and as for punishment and other things, they would talk about it when Li Kui woke up. Now they faced the 10,000 army led by Xiao Puda was the most important thing, so they came directly to the big tent to discuss the matter together.

Song Jiang nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Xiao Puda does have the ability, since our army set out on the expedition, I have never encountered such a thing. In my opinion, according to the advice of the military advisor, we will increase the number of troops, and these days we will not move the troops, wait and see what happens, and we have to shoot spies to find out the news. ”

Everyone nodded yes, knowing that this was the first time they had tasted defeat since they set out on the expedition, and this feeling was really uncomfortable, especially since the method of being attacked this time was still used by them. In addition, Wang Gui and Niu Gao said Xiao Puda's last words together.

Everyone was stunned, Xiao Pu's move had already shown his intentions, that was Zhao Gou, the commander of the Song army, he wanted to see it with his own eyes, that is to say, they knew that the commander of the Song army did not follow. Therefore, everyone understood that the Liao army had already figured out the situation of himself and others, which seemed to be passively beaten.

"When will the marshal arrive?"

Wu Yong said in a deep voice: "The marshal said that he would leave in the next few days, but he did not say when he would arrive. But the big handsome should also know how powerful this person is, and he wants to meet him for a while. If it is as expected, the marshal should leave tomorrow, and it is estimated that it will arrive in three or four days. ”

As a result, Lu Junyi, Song Jiang, Han Shizhong and others immediately ordered the army to stay still for the past few days and pay close attention to every move of the Liao army. If Zhao Gou came and they couldn't do anything, it would seem that they and the others were too useless.

In addition, they will not sit idly by, inquire about the news over and over again, and figure out how to deal with the Jinyang army led by Xiao Puda. They had been careless before, but after this lesson, they had been taught and would never let such a thing happen again.

"Report to the general, the Song army has strengthened its precautions!"

Xiao Puda smiled slightly and said: "This is interesting, it seems that in addition to their commander, there are some people with brains in the Song army." If it hadn't been for those two men who had come to stop me, the black-faced general would have died at my hands, but that would have been enough. ”

The original layout has not been completely used up, and the Song army retreated only in the first level, which made Xiao Puda a little disappointed, he did not kill the pioneers and generals of the Song army, but only some small soldiers and generals. However, another gain is that the combat effectiveness of the Song army is indeed not to be underestimated, and there are also smart people in the Song army, so he does not dare to go to the sneak attack easily, this strategy can only be used once, and cannot be used again.

"Pass the order, let the brothers pay attention, cheer up, and don't give Song Jun any chance." Xiao Pu gave the order to go down, and after the man respectfully retreated, he muttered to himself: "In a few days, the commander of the Song army should also arrive, and it is good to meet and see what kind of person he is." ”

The news that Xiao Puda defeated the Song army for the first time soon heard about it in several surrounding states, which made the hearts of the Liao army under the clouds of gloom lift their hearts.

Two days have passed since Song Jiang was attacked by the Jinyang army, and on this day, Zhao Gou, Zhao Yougong, and Gao Zhong rushed over.

Zhao Gou and the others entered the big tent, went straight to the point, and said in a deep voice: "You fought with the Jinyang Army, and you were defeated, so do you think the information that Xiao Pu beat this person is true?" ”

Wu Yong nodded and said, "Eight or nine is not far from ten!" ”

Zhao Gou pondered for a moment, he had already heard that the Song army had been defeated by the Liao army. Although it is only less than a thousand dead, it is not a question of how many people have died, but the morale of the army, and whether the morale of the army is neat. In addition, he had already guessed in his heart that Xiao Pu was not easy to deal with this person, otherwise how could he succeed in a sneak attack, and he could still retreat, which made Li Kui seriously injured.

Now that he heard Wu Yong's evaluation and saw the silent expressions of everyone, he had already determined that Xiao Puda might be the biggest obstacle to the Khitan conquest. If Xiao Puda has enough troops, I am afraid that if he really fights with himself and others, he will lose both.

Li Kui acted recklessly, and was dragged out by Zhao Gou and beaten with twenty military sticks to set an example. Li Kui knew his mistake, and was pulled out by the soldiers without saying a word. Zhao Gou asked Li Kui about what happened that day, as well as the words of Wang Gui, Niu Gao and others, from which it can be seen that Xiao Puda was premeditated and did not make a temporary decision, which shows that he is very familiar with the terrain of this place.

So, Zhao Gou also wanted to see with his own eyes who Xiao Puda was sacred, and Xiao Puda also wanted to meet Zhao Gou. The two of them had the same idea, and after Zhao Gou arrived at the Song army camp, Xiao Puda sent someone to send a battle post, saying that they would meet tomorrow at the ten-mile slope outside the city, and Zhao Gou readily agreed.
