After a night of fierce fighting, the Khitan army was defeated, and they fled in the wilderness in a panic. For the officers and soldiers of the Datong Army, these days, they were first defeated by the Khitan army, and then chased by the Khitan army for hundreds of miles, and the monstrous injustice had already accumulated in their hearts.

After dawn, the panorama of the battlefield can be seen clearly, and then the officers and soldiers of the Datong Army found that in this vast field, within a range of more than ten miles, there are corpses of Khitan barbarians and war horses everywhere, weapons and armor and banners are mixed everywhere, standing like trees, horizontal like grass.

There are still remnants of fire burning in the Khitan camp, and there are charred ashes and wreckage everywhere inside and outside, exuding a strong fishy smell and smoke, between blood and fire, no piece of ground is smooth, and there are groups or pieces of Khitan barbarian corpses in each place.

This is the real hell on earth.

It's just that it's the hell of the Khitan barbarians.

The corpses are all over the field, and the soldiers of the Datong Army reacted at this time, this scene of blood flowing and drifting, and the corpses of tens of millions of Khitan barbarians, all of them came from their hands. Realizing this, all the officers and men of the Datong Army were all excited and excited, and some of them were emotional and fragile, and they hugged each other and cried bitterly. Not experiencing the line of life and death, not hovering and torturing on the line of death, not being able to experience the ecstasy of the rest of their lives after the catastrophe, the weight of this rebirth, coupled with these visible and tangible military exploits, make them unable to control their emotions anymore.

There were those who were more emotionally stable, who recovered from surprise, fear, and joy, and began to search for the figure who had led them to fight hundreds of miles in the past few days, saved them from the realm of mortality, and gave them a heavy military feat. However, on the vast battlefield, in addition to the wreckage, there is also a crowd of people who are also looking around, but the young and majestic figure is missing, which makes them willing to look up.

After a long time, there was movement on the silent battlefield again, Qin Shi had to drag his seriously injured and tired body to the battlefield to command the officers and soldiers of the Datong Army to clean up the battlefield, they had to dig out the wounded and not dead comrades in the pile of dead people, and send them back to the military camp in Guanzhong for medical treatment.

Finally, they would bury the bodies of their comrades, write down their names and exploits, and similarly, they would pile up the corpses of enemy soldiers and burn them in one fire.

When doing these things, the soldiers of the Datong Army were a little depressed, not only because they saw the corpses of their comrades, but also because the figure that made them miss and worry about them never appeared on the battlefield.

Qin Lin and Qin Shide stood in the center of the battlefield, both of them looking at the west, both of them were a little silent.

"Last night, after defeating the Khitan army, General Li passed on an order to let the soldiers of my Datong Army gather here to annihilate the Khitan stubborn enemy and protect the Sangqing Pass. Qin Lin said softly, he glanced at the sky, "Calculate the time, General Li should have chased out thirty or fifty miles at this time, if it goes well, he may be able to cut off the head of Yelu Dilie, if not, it is time to be a teacher." ”

Qin Shide was silent for a long time, and suddenly smiled: "Don't worry, Yelu's enemy Lieqian donkey skills are poor, and more than 10,000 troops are buried here, and they can no longer pose any threat to Li Congjing, and the Hundred Battles Army is a real elite division, even in the face of the army that Yelu Enemy Lie left behind and set up an ambush, they can calmly deal with it." ”

After speaking, he looked at Qin Lin, "You also have this confidence, don't you?" ”

Qin Lin showed a knowing smile, "That's true." ”

But said that last night's army was in turmoil, although Li Congjing had the intention to capture and kill Yelu's enemy, he also knew that in the chaotic army, especially in the middle of the night, such a thing could be encountered but not sought, so he didn't care too much, and the focus of his army was still on completely defeating the Khitan army, after all, this is the key to determining the victory or defeat of the battle. As for Yelu's enemy, what if he runs away, a defeated general, Li Congjing will still be afraid that he will turn the world upside down in the future?

He met on the battlefield every day, and he was defeated again.

This is Li Congjing's confidence, and it is also a kind of momentum that he has gradually cultivated over the years, a kind of momentum that overlooks the heroes.

The reason why they chased the remnants of the Khitan army this time was not for anything else, but to prevent them from attacking Shengzhou after being collected by Yelu Enemy Lie on the way to rout.

Last night, the Hundred Battles Army and the Datong Army joined forces to leave more than 10,000 Khitan barbarians outside the Sangqing Pass, but there were still three or five thousand people who fled. They must pass through Fengzhou and Yingtian in the west, and they naturally want to go there, if Yelu Enemy Lie intends to gather the remnants of the army, based on the personal guard force around him, it is not a problem to get two or three thousand people.

Two or three thousand Khitan soldiers are enough to pose a mortal threat to today's Shengzhou.

Chasing behind the Khitan rout all the way, running westward, it is inevitable to leave a place of Khitan barbarian corpses on the road, although it is not as dense as outside the Sangkan Pass, but it is also quite terrifying when the corpses are exposed in the wild.

The hundred battle armies that ran for a day in the middle of the night arrived at dusk to the bank of the Yellow River, and the city of Shengzhou was already visible in the distance. The rangers reported that there was no Khitan rout outside the city, which was normal, after all, the soldiers of the hundred battles were neatly armed, and the horses kept running, and the defeated Khitan barbarians would not be faster than them.

At this point, Li Congjing also put his mind at ease, ordered the army to put down the speed of the horse, and marched along the river, and at the same time ordered the rangers to inform Wang Pu and Chen Li in Shengzhou City.

This border attack and defense battle because of the fierce ambition and good planning of the Yelu enemy has come to an end, and it is inevitable that the Yelu enemy's fierce losses will be broken, nearly 20,000 troops, and it is good that there are 35,000 people who can respond to the sky alive, and what makes Yelu's enemies even more painful is that several of his righteous sons were all killed in battle, and the backbone generals under his command were also killed and wounded. This heavy blow was not a big blow to Yelu's enemy, and even his position in the north courtyard was very likely to be shaken by this.

For the Tang army, Sang Kangguan was naturally saved, although Qin Shide was injured before he left the division, but fortunately he did not die, and the Datong army suffered some losses, but it was not a bone injury, at most it was a skin injury. After this battle, it is not difficult to imagine that for a long time in the future, Qi will not dare to send troops, horses, and rangers to attack and harass in Yunzhou.

What made Li Congjing quite happy was the Shengzhou City that the Datong Army "inadvertently" rushed to take. Needless to say, the significance of taking Shengzhou City is no longer overstated, and now that the Yelu enemy is defeated, it is only a matter of time before the Shengzhou City in the bag becomes the entire territory of Shengzhou.

The water surface of the Yellow River is wide, although there is no magnificent scenery, but there is no lack of scenery where water and sky meet, looking at it makes people feel far away.

Li Congjing thought of the famous poem and couldn't help but smile. I remember that in later generations, I once watched a video, which was a picture of a scientist playing and singing by himself, and that vast and passionate color once made Li Congjing, who was still young psychologically at that time, fascinated. Now, coming to this era, the experience of these years has long been like the Yellow River, which has made his life more vigorous and heroic.

The water of the Yellow River came up from the sky, rushed to the sea and never returned.

Li Congjing said in his heart, all the exciting and magnificent things probably only need to go ahead, and there is no need to turn back. Whether it's a thing, or a life.

This is the Yellow River, and this is the world. One day, the Yellow River will be mine, because the world will also be mine!

Outside the Sangjia Pass, after two days, Qin Shide and the officers and soldiers of the Datong Army have almost cleaned up the battlefield, and the wolf smoke everywhere seems to have become a thing of the past, and the traces left behind are artificially cleared, and only the pictures in the minds of the soldiers can become eternal. And the memories left by the war will remain in their hearts and linger.

The figure never reappeared.

In the end, Qin Shide felt that Li Congjing should be coming back, in order to express his gratitude to Li Congjing for his great kindness, Qin Shide did not return to the pass, but waited on the battlefield to welcome Li Congjing into the pass. Qin Shide has already prepared a banquet, although he is seriously injured, but when he meets Li Congjing again, he will definitely pull the other party and drink a few bowls of raw drink.

Qin Shide will not forget that when he withdrew from the battlefield a few days ago and saw Li Congjing, he said the sentence "General Li, save my Datong Army", and in just a few days, Li Congjing not only did it, but also gave him a great military achievement. From defeat to victory, from death to life, Qin Shide is a person with clear grievances, and his admiration for Li Congjing, the descendant, comes from the bottom of his heart, so he has been waiting to greet him for a long time, and he is sincere.

After cleaning the battlefield, the officers and men of the Datong Army gathered behind Qin Shide, spontaneously lined up, and together with their commander, stood quietly outside the unharmed border pass, greeting the other commander who had only taken a few days, but it was enough for them to miss for a lifetime.

Finally, a group of cavalry appeared in the field of vision, and Qin Shide and the officers and soldiers of the Datong Army were all shocked.

However, when the cavalry came closer, Qin Shide found that it was not Li Congjing who came, but the rangers he sent to contact Li Congjing.

The ranger fell off his horse in front of him, and Qin Shide immediately asked, "Have you ever seen General Li?" ”

"See." The ranger replied, "General Li asked the lowly to come back with a message." ”

"What did Li Congjing say? When will he return? Qin Shide asked.

"General Li, I won't come to Sangganguan." The ranger's words made Qin Shide, Zhang Daqian and the others stunned, they looked at each other, and they all saw the puzzlement in each other's eyes, "This ......"

The ranger paused for a moment, bowed his head slightly, and continued: "General Li has arrived in Shengzhou City, and he asked him to tell General Qin that it is his honor to be able to fight side by side with General Qin and the officers and men of the Datong Army this time, and defeat the strong enemy. It's just that because he has other important tasks, it is inconvenient to meet the commander again. General Li also said that the next time we meet, we will definitely not get drunk with the military commander! ”

Qin Shide was stunned for a long time, then suddenly turned around and left, "Lead the horse, Ben Shuai is going to Shengzhou City, Li Congjing has helped us so much, how can we not thank each other?" ”

Zhang Daqian should be, but the ranger followed, and said hurriedly: "Marshal, I'm afraid that if you go to Shengzhou at this time, you won't see General Li. ”

"What?" Qin Shide was stunned, "He left Shengzhou?" The Hundred Battles Army wants to return to Youzhou? ”

"Not really." The ranger shook his head, "I heard that General Li is going to the northern grasslands. ”

This time, not only Qin Shide, but also Qin Lin and Zhang Daqian and others were all stunned.

After a long time, Qin Lin faced the north and sighed: "In the northern grassland, Li Congjing's plan for this trip is probably bigger than we imagined......"

Qin Shide clenched his fists to the west, was silent for a moment, and said to the ranger: "You go and inform General Li quickly...... If you can't catch up with General Li, tell Li Shaocheng that you must tell him in person, just say - I, Qin Shide, the Great Unification Army, can fight side by side with General Li and the Hundred Battles Army, which is a blessing in my life! ”

After speaking, he added: "I will wait for you in Yunzhou with warm wine, and when you come, you will be white!" ”
