On May 19, Yao Pingzhong had ordered the Xihe army, soldiers, and archers to hold the city of Renduoquan, and the brave and strong people also went to the front to carry equipment and set up artillery carts, preparing to attack the city in one fell swoop. However, in the afternoon of the same day, a large number of Qiang thieves came to reinforce them, and Yao Si, the younger brother of Ping Zhong, led 7,000 elite soldiers to defeat them. It was in this battle that the female general with the mask appeared again, and rode Xu Wei's sweaty and bloody horse, clashing back and forth.

According to this, General Xihe judged that this should be the Yi Shengren Dragon who rushed back from the area of the Ancient Bone Dragon City to rescue. Yao Pingzhong quickly changed his strategy, suspended the siege, and concentrated his elite troops in an attempt to defeat the Yi Shenglong in one fell swoop. On the 20th and 21st, the Xihe army won two battles and two victories, and the Qiang thieves had no power to fight back. The main force of the Yi Shenglong was defeated, and he led the remnants to flee to the area of Jisang City, recruiting Qiang people everywhere in an attempt to retaliate, and at the same time reported the matter to Li Renxiao, the lord of Xia, and asked for reinforcements from the imperial court. But Xingqing Mansion, the summer capital, is far away from Renduo Quancheng, and I am afraid that it cannot be counted on.

After defeating the main force of the Qiang thieves, Yao Pingzhong was not in a hurry, and only then did he turn around and attack the city. The Weiyuan cannon was mighty, and the huge stone bullets roared over Renduoquan City, and they bombarded down in one day, making the thieves trapped in the city suffer enough. In the past, Xu Wei led his troops to attack the city occupied by the Jin people, and he had to take care of the people in the city more or less. But this time, the Xihe army didn't care about this, just killed and bombarded the city. The Weiyuan cannon has a very long range and great power, and the stone projectile falls to the ground and sinks seven feet into the ground!

The next day, the Xihe army launched a fierce attack. Yao Pingzhong used the Weiyuan cannon to launch the earth-shattering thunder brought by Xu Wei as a suppression. The loud noise can be heard for miles! Inspired by this, the Xihe soldiers all blocked ten, and before dusk, they had already attacked the city. At this time, the gates of the city were also slammed open, and the army drove straight into the city. Seeing that the general trend had gone, the thieves defending the city had no choice but to disarm and surrender.

After entering the city, Xihe General Zuo wanted to follow Liu Fa's old deeds and slaughter the whole city. But Xu Wei did not agree, Liu Fa had to slaughter the city as a last resort, not to vent his anger, but to capture the city at that time and there was no way to defend it, so he could only kill it. As soon as Renduoquan City was born, all the surrounding Qiang were terrified, and they gathered to defend themselves. Xu Wei personally appointed a Xihe general "Zhiren Duoquan City" and granted the "Inspection Envoy" to send to guard this place.

The Yi Shengren Long begged for help from other Tubo tribes in Jisang City, but when they heard that Xihe Yao Dashuai personally led the army to suppress him, who would dare to help him? Although Xiao Taiwei is easy to talk big, he has one sentence that is very real, that is, the prestige of the Yao family among the Qiang is indeed very high, and when he hears his name, no one dares to brush the tiger's whiskers.

The Yi Shenglong had no place to stand, so he could only defect to the city lord of Jisang City and send people under the fence. But he didn't have a few days to lose his family, because at the end of May, the Xihe army finally showed its hideous face and rushed straight to Jisang City! The Tubo and Qiang people in this area were shocked inexplicably, and they were spreading rumors everywhere that the Western Army was about to open the border again, and they had to make up for the battle that was not fought twenty years ago!

As soon as this rumor spreads, then what's the point? Since thirty years ago, after Tong Taishi and Xiao Chong Jing slightly defeated the Xia army in the Ancient Bone Dragon City, the Western Xia state has been declining. After another five years, the Western Army attacked on a large scale, and Hengshan all fell into the hands of the Great Song Dynasty, and the Western Xia lost its barrier, and the image of the destruction of the country has appeared.

Fortunately, at this time, the Jurchens rose and attacked Liao very urgently. When the Song people saw that the destruction of the Khitan was imminent, they still couldn't forget the old land of Yanyun, so they transferred the Western Army to attack Liao, which narrowly saved the lives of the party members. After the Song and Jin wars, the Western Xia continued to encroach and gradually recaptured some areas, but the key was still in the hands of the Western army. This time the Xihe Army attacked on a large scale, isn't it the precursor of the Western Army's destruction of Xia? They don't care about the Jurchens anymore?

On the last day of May, the Western Army marched under the city of Linjisan. Prior to this, the city lord of Najisang City had heard that the Western Army was marching towards Jisang, and he did not dare to confront Yao Pingzhong, so he hurriedly stockpiled supplies and cleared the wilderness.

When the Xihe army arrived at the city, they didn't make a move first, but sent a messenger into the city to see the city lord, saying that we are not here to beat you. As I said, as long as you hand over the Yi Shengzhi Long and his family, we will leave immediately, if not, then we will not be able to do it.

When the city lord of Jisang heard this, he fell into a dilemma. Deal with it, I can't bear it. He is the leader of the "Zhilong Clan", belonging to a branch of the original Tubo Liugu Alliance, and the mother of the Yisheng Zhilong is the Zhilong Clan, which is a nephew and uncle. The Yi Shenglong committed the plunder, broke through the Cat Niu City, and killed the guards, and handed him over, which must be a dead end.

But if it is not handed over, the Xihe army will inevitably capture the city strongly. Yi Shenglong is known for his good fighting, even he was defeated, can he withstand it? If you ask for help, I'm afraid that far water can't save the near fire. Since the "Battle of Hengshan" more than 20 years ago, the vitality of the Xia army has been greatly damaged, and in the area of Xiliang Mansion, except for the elite Xia army around the city, the rest of the place is handed over to the original garrison of the Tubo Six Valleys, and it is impossible to stop the thunderous anger of the Xihe army!

At this time, the Yi Shengren Long, who learned the news, came to see the city lord and tried his best to persuade him to resist, and he pouted and said, even if you hand me over, the Xihe army will still attack the city. They didn't come to ask for someone at all, they were just looking for an excuse.

A day later, the Xihe army sent people to issue an ultimatum and handed over the people within the same day, otherwise the siege would begin tomorrow. The sovereign of Jisang City weighed again and again, and finally decided, relatives belong to relatives, you can't be because you have affected me, right? So, he sent troops to surround the residence of Yi Shengzhilong, and wanted to "gift" him out of the city.

Seeing this, Yi Shenglong knew that the time limit had come, but he no longer pleaded, only hoping that the other party would leave his daughter behind and not send him out of the city for the sake of his relatives. The lord of Jisang agreed to his request, left his daughter, tied him up with his three sons, and escorted him out of the city.

His daughter, however, was also strong, and when she saw that her father and brother were bound, she expressed her unwillingness to be an only child, and willingly went out of the city with her, and let her be disposed of. Yi Shenglong can't regret it, but how can he let his daughter die?

In the big tent of the Xihe Army, Yao Pingzhong was dressed in a military uniform and sat on it. On both sides of the tent, there are many warriors of various ethnic groups, all of whom are holding the hilt of their swords, and they are murderous. In this picture, Xu Wei is a discordant existence. He was still dressed in a purple robe and gold belt, and sat in the corner of the upper right corner, inconspicuous.

When the curtain was lifted, the soldiers came in with four people. The first one, about fifty years old, was not burly, but even when he was tied up, he still held his head high and his face calm. The first three are taller, the older ones are in their thirties and forties, and the youngest is probably in their twenties, although they are burly and majestic, but they have a fierce face. All four of them were dressed in the same attire, with two braids, but their heads were not shaved, and they wore Tibetan robes, all with one shoulder exposed. After being escorted in, the soldier was forced to kneel, the father and son knelt in the tent, the father stood up, and the first three sons looked down at the ground slightly, just waiting for a knife to come.

Yao Pingzhong's fierce gaze swept over the faces of the four of his father and son, and suddenly smashed his fist on the handsome case, and said angrily: "Straight mother thief!" How dare you scare me! Fuck it, come on! Go back into town! Tell the Bird City Lord to hand over the mask general! ”

As soon as they heard this, the four fathers and sons under the tent all changed their faces! Yi Shenglong said loudly: "If the handsome man wants to kill, he will kill, just ask to let my daughter live!" He spoke not very authentic Chinese. It's just that he forgot one thing in a hurry. No one on Song Jun's side knew that the masked woman would be his daughter, and he didn't know whether the woman would be dead or alive, so he just had to say that he was dead, so what could he do? Now, since I have said it, I am afraid that it will not be able to be saved.

Yao Pingzhong didn't seem to expect him to speak Chinese, let alone that the female thief was his daughter, so he was stunned for a moment, and said, "Prisoner under the stairs!" Why do you ask for this handsome? Knowing today, how dare you violate my borders? Last year, you crossed the border to plunder, our boss was merciful, and he has borrowed your cattle and sheep grain, not only are you grateful for the newspaper, but this year you have come to loot again! also broke through my Cat Niu City and killed my Duan City Lord! You have sinned heinously! You can't tolerate this handsomeness! ”

The Yi living dragon slammed his head to the ground and said quickly: "It is my father and son who crossed the border and plundered, and I beg the handsome man to open the net!" ”

"Damn! Last year, when I surrounded Maoniucheng, your girl hurt many of my brothers! This time it's even more ......" said this time, looked to the side, and then said, "Don't talk nonsense!" I can't help you! ”

Then he sent someone into the city again and demanded the thief. What can the city lord of Jisang do? Seeing this, he had no choice but to hand over the woman and tie her up and send her out of the city.

When the female thief was escorted into the big tent, Xu Wei looked sideways. This woman is not easy to judge her age, but it is estimated that it will not be too big, and she has lived in the plateau area for a long time, so that her face also has the so-called "plateau red" in later generations. She is completely different from the women in the south and even Shaanxi. He is tall, extremely slender, and has a special charm in the contours of his facial features. The Tubo robe on her body did not wear two sleeves, tied around her waist, only a silk robe on her upper body, and her hands were tied with reverse scissors, so that she had to highlight some places, so as soon as she came in, she attracted the attention of the audience...... Yi Shenglong showed a desperate gaze, and after glancing at his daughter, he lowered his head all the time.

"Get on your knees!" The soldier didn't feel pity for her because she was a woman, and after drinking it, he kicked it down without waiting for the other party's reaction. The woman knelt on the ground, but she didn't show fear, her face was still resolute, and her eyes were still the same as what Xu Wei saw that day.

Yao Pingzhong looked at it a few more times and asked, "What is your mother-in-law's name?" ”

"White Madava." She speaks Chinese much more fluently than her father.

Yao Pingzhong snorted coldly: "A woman's family should have a baby and run the house, what kind of swords and soldiers should you get?" You killed many of my brothers during the siege last year, and this time you have disturbed the sir, do you know what kind of sin this is? ”

Bai Ma Dawa's face did not change: "Last year's spring famine, I asked you to borrow food, but you refused, so I could only come to rob it." This year there was another plague ......"

Yao Pingzhong was furious, and before she could finish speaking, he shouted: "You guys are in trouble with me!" Father...... Let's go, I can't talk to you as a woman! Around! ”

"In!" The warriors in front of the tent shouted in unison.

The Yi Shengren Long knew that the limit had arrived, but he was still a little afraid, and said to him: "Dashuai spare his life!" Spare your life! ”

"Spare you?" As Yao Pingzhong spoke, he glanced to the side again, and saw that Xu Wei didn't react, so he continued, "You plundered the border, broke my city, and killed my officers, why should this commander spare you?" ”

Seeing that the little captain was picked, Yi Shengzhilong hurriedly said: "But leave me alive, the villain is willing to return!" ”

"Attached?" Guan Shigu, the deputy marshal of Xihe, heard it strangely, and sneered, "Just your family of four? If you have a mule or a horse, you can also ride a cart, but what is the use of raising you? Renduoquan City has been captured by our army, and all the Qiang within a radius of 200 miles have been surrendered, what use do you have? ”

Yi Shenglong was in a hurry, and hurriedly said: "From here to Xiliang Mansion, within a radius of two hundred miles, there are Tubo tribesmen. The handsome man wants to attack Xiliang, and the villain is willing to appease his people! ”

Yao Pingzhong said coldly: "Ben Shuai will send people to appease him, why use you?" ”

The Yi Shenglong couldn't answer, and sweat rained down. Somehow, Bai Madava saw a person sitting in the upper right corner, behind the group of generals, as if he was out of the way. She felt that this person was a little familiar, not the face, but the dress, wasn't it the one she had taken from him not long ago?

knew that the other party must be a high-ranking official in Shaanxi, otherwise, it would be impossible for the generals to be full, only he and Yao Jingluo sat firmly. In order to save her father and brother, she suddenly jumped up and rushed in the direction of Xu Wei. But the samurai in front of the tent reacted quickly, and as soon as he got up and ran two steps, he was knocked to the ground with a stick! The sharp tip of the spear was against her back, and if she dared to move it lightly, she would die on the spot!

When she moved, a row of generals in front of Xu Wei was shocked to draw their swords, and when they were frightened, they scolded: "This aunt is so fierce!" Leave her alone! ”

Bai Ma Dawa threw herself on the ground, and tried to raise her head, shouting at Xu Wei: "You spare my father and brother!" I will sacrifice my head to atone for the sin of disturbing the horse! ”

She didn't mention it, Yao Pingzhong almost forgot about it, and when she heard it, she immediately asked, "Where is the horse?" ”

"It has been presented as a gift to the city lord of Jisang." Pemadava replied. After finishing speaking, he looked at Xu Wei again, his lips moved several times, and he didn't say anything again. Because she herself felt that there was no hope, and that day I almost killed him and took away his horse, and he would have put my family to death.

Xu Wei met the woman's gaze, suddenly chuckled, and then stood up. Yao Pingzhong turned his head to look, only to see the captain nodded, and then he said, "Come, and take it down, so that you can take care of it." ”

The family of five was escorted out of the tent, and before leaving, Bai Ma Dawa still looked at Xu Wei from time to time, with a complicated expression.

As soon as they left, Yao Pingzhong said: "Taiwei, although this guy is extremely evil, it is still useful. In the area of Renduoquan City, Zhuqiang is not attached, and if he is sent to appease, it will definitely work. However, I am only worried that these Qiang thieves are capricious. ”

At this time, a general also said: "Yi Shengren Long has a prestige among the Qiang, he is desperate for mercy today, and it is difficult to guarantee that he will not rebel in the future." If you want to use him to appease him, you must force him to move inward, and you can't leave him where he is. ”
