。

Li Yanzhao was talking to the soldiers in the battalion to help the injured Su Fu tribesmen. Su Fu followed beside him with a little embarrassment, and from time to time he talked to Li Yanzhao, who was squatting down to wrap the wounds of his subordinates.

Although his family is a high-ranking family in the north, at this time, his down-and-out image can no longer care about the difference between the scholars and the scholars, and he respects Li Yanzhao. The twenty or thirty wounded tribes lying here and groaning, plus the forty or so tribes on the opposite hill and the mountainside here, are the only little capital he has left now.

I still remember that when the small dock fort I was guarding fell, because I was determined to surrender to Zhao, the only remaining 300 parts of the dock fort escorted me to break through and rush out. Let's fight and go. Now it is only six or seven days, and of these 300 parts, there are only 60 or 70 people left on the mountain.

If it weren't for the Liangzhou cavalry led by Li Yanzhao, they came to contain the attention of the more than 100 Hun cavalry who were chasing and killing. And they all used the valley mouth to block the Huns, what is the situation now, Su Fu feels that it is really difficult to say.

"Since Xiao Langjun was born in the martial arts Su clan, he must be rich in the family, why did he lead the bloody battle of his subordinates and end up here?" Su Fu, who was muttering to himself, suddenly heard Li Yanzhao ask.

When Su Fu heard Li Yanzhao ask, he raised his head and smiled bitterly for a long time, and then let out a long sigh.

"If Xiao Langjun finds it difficult to speak, there is no need to answer." Li Yanzhao saw Su Fu's stunned face, so he spoke.

"It's not that I don't want to answer the general's question." Na Su Fubian said, his eyes were already full of tears: "The inheritance of the ancestors was destroyed in my hands!" There are more than 1,000 loyal families in the family, and now there are only about 70 people left. I...... I'm so ashamed of my ancestors! Su Fu said, already kneeling to the ground facing the east, hiding his face and crying.

Seeing this, the young man beside Su Fu hurriedly stepped forward to support Su Fu, and said with a sad expression: "Why is Lord Lang like this." When my father was still alive, he always taught us to be faithful to the Lord. Now the lord of Lang is temporarily suffering. However, we also swear to die with each other, in the hope that Lord Lang will revive the family's reputation, please don't be sad! ”

Although he said something to comfort Su Fu, but as he spoke, the young man couldn't suppress the despair in his heart, and he burst into tears, and the master and servant faced the east, looking at the unreachable direction of their hometown.

The cries of the master and servant also caused the sad memories in the hearts of the injured people lying here. As if it was an infection, most of these iron men who were wounded and bleeding and had never cried miserably were crying at this time.

There are those who cry silently, those who choke and choke, and those who let out sorrows. Li Yanzhao saw this situation, and his heart was also sour. I want to be comforted, but I don't know where to start.

After thinking about it for a long time, Li Yanzhao finally walked up to Su Fu, who was still sobbing, patted him lightly on the shoulder, and then asked, "Xiao Langjun doesn't have to be sad and desperate. Do you know who Su Xuan is? ”

When Su Fu heard this, he wiped his tears with his front placket, and then said vaguely: "He is the uncle of another clan in our family." Why did the general suddenly ask about this? ”

Li Yanzhao slowly helped Su Fu up, then sighed and said, "At the beginning of last year, this clan uncle of Xiao Langjun took a lot of Quyin households from Jingzhao to Liangzhou. Now, it is settled in Yongdeng County, which is under the jurisdiction of our county. Whether it is the villagers brought with them or the shady household tribes, they have all been settled. ”

When Su Fu heard this, he showed an expression of disbelief, and said in a trembling voice: "This ...... Is this true? ”

Li Yanzhao saw that he still didn't believe it, so he said in a categorical tone: "It's true! If Xiao Langjun has nowhere to stay, he can seek support elsewhere. ”

When Su Fu heard this, his demeanor calmed down a little. However, it seems that he still feels that the future is bleak, so his expression is not optimistic.

Li Yanzhao saw his expression, and did not continue to persuade him. Instead, he instructed his own soldiers to come and cut down some straight, sturdy thick branches, and made a few simple stretchers to carry those who were wounded in the legs and had difficulty moving. The rest of the songs, either carried on the back or carried by men, cautiously headed towards the foot of the mountain.

Shao Lei, who had received a message from Li Yanzhao before, had already brought all the rotating war horses over and let Su Fu's troops ride. Seeing that these Liangzhou military sentry horses were actually human and two-horse, Su Fu was even more surprised. He had been dealing with the Huns in Guanzhong for a long time, and he knew that the strong combat effectiveness of the Huns was mostly due to the people and horses.

There are many people and horses, so that the cavalry has greater mobility and running ability. This equipment can undoubtedly maximize the advantages of cavalry. The Huns were nomadic people, and it was not difficult for them to have a man. However, Liangzhou, which is also dominated by Han people, can achieve both cavalry and horses, so you can imagine how strong financial resources Liangzhou has.

Thinking about this section, Su Fu had a little more respect for Li Yanzhao and his subordinate Liangzhou cavalry. Previously, I was curious about how the sentry cavalry of the Liangzhou Army could penetrate so deeply. This place is close to the central area of Longxi, less than 100 miles away from Longxi and Nan'an counties. Even if it is from Chen An's lair, it is only less than three hundred miles.

For Liangzhou, which is still in the northwest corner, such a sentinel distance is definitely deep into the hinterland.

In any case, this courage alone dared to go so far into the enemy-occupied area, which made Su Fu have to feel admired.

After the Huns captured Chang'an and occupied Guanzhong, the area they could control was still relatively limited. With the exception of Chang'an, a number of prefectures, and important counties, the control over the countryside is being weakened indefinitely. The population that was originally under the control of the Jin Dynasty government either died or fled. And most of the high-ranking scholars are now unwilling to succumb to Hu Lu.

In this way, the nobles often gathered their own shakuto tribes, chose dangerous places, and built dock forts. Reclaim the wasteland and fort itself. The shade tribes are basically self-sufficient.

The land of Guanzhong now has hundreds of dock forts, large and small. All of them were built by the scholars and clan elders who did not want to surrender to Zhao. Most of these dock forts are built according to danger, and they have contacts with many Qiang in the territory, and they echo the watch. Therefore, Liu Zhao also had no spare strength to go in and suppress one by one. Most of the dock forts, which were remote and easy to defend and difficult to attack, were selectively ignored by Liu Zhao's authorities.

These dock forts, with the help of terrain and armor, can withstand two thousand people for a long time. Therefore, if you want to pull out these dock forts, there are fewer people, and not to mention the loss of soldiers, you may not be able to defeat them; If there are many soldiers sent to besiege him, it will be difficult for Liu Zhao to maintain this huge military and material expenditure. Second, if they concentrate on uprooting the dock fort, then it is difficult to say that the leaders of Diqiang, who have a lot of dealings with them, will not take the opportunity to attack Liu Zhao and take advantage of the emptiness of Liu Zhao's garrison.

The injured parts were also put on horseback, and many people rode on the same horse with the uninjured. The horses, which had been ridden by these parts, but were now mostly exhausted, were also driven forward in the procession. Li Yanzhao then ordered Shao Lei to take half of the people to break off, and this converging team embarked on the road to the west.

Li Yanzhao had already taught Su Fu how to use the stirrups of the Yin Tobu Qu. The trilogues were amazed at this thing. After getting on the horse, I felt that this small object on the saddle could play a big role. Now they can sit on horsebacks with their stirrups on their feet. There is no need to be afraid of your own lack of riding skills and clamp the horse's belly and pull the reins tightly. Now that the feet have a solid fulcrum on the horseback, riding a horse is a relatively easy task.

The horsemen turned their horses and went back the way they had come. Li Yanzhao chose this mountain valley to walk in order to avoid a possible large number of enemy troops, which also brought inconvenience to his own subordinates who had many cavalry. It seems that now, in this valley, the horsemen can only move forward carefully.

Su Fu was sitting on horseback at this time, looking depressed, but he didn't know what he was thinking. Li Yanzhao looked at his expression, and it was inconvenient to ask. The two of them walked without saying a word, and slowly walked away under the guidance of the horsemen in front of them.

I couldn't walk more than ten miles, and the sky was already dark. The cavalry in front returned and asked Li Yanzhao if he needed to choose a place to spend the night. Li Yanzhao didn't think about it, and replied directly: "In order to prevent the Huns from coming to pursue, I marched overnight today and did not rest." ”

The horseman took the command and departed. Immediately, Fang Cai's general order was accompanied by the loud voice of the cavalry, and spread throughout the entire team: "A hundred people will have an order, in order to prevent the enemy from coming to pursue, march overnight today, and there will be no rest!" ”

After receiving this order, the cavalry in front of them increased their speed slightly. Fang was at Su Fu's department, and it took a lot of time to heal his injuries. If you stay here for a long time, you may change.

He went on for several more miles. Looking at Su Fu beside him, his face was still gloomy, and Li Yanzhao couldn't help but ask: "Since Xiao Langjun is from Guanzhong, he must know the current situation in Guanzhong well?" "He originally wanted to investigate the military situation, but he encountered Su Fu, a remnant soldier.

However, in fact, even if Su Fu, the remnant of the army, did not come out to stir up the situation, it was impossible for these cavalry to penetrate deep into the Guanzhong area. Therefore, Su Fu, an eyewitness, became a breakthrough for Li Yanzhao to try to obtain information.

Li Yanzhao saw that Su Fu's face changed from depression to grief, and faintly, there was a look of wanting to cry again. It took more than a dozen breaths before the situation calmed down, and then he opened his mouth to speak, but he was a little hesitant. After a long while, Fang Cai recounted in a flat tone: "My family is close to Wugong, and I run a dock fort ......."
