Li Congjing is naturally indispensable to this, but since he has been in the troubled waters of the Datong Army, he has been in it, there is no reason to remove himself halfway, and the affairs of the Datong Army have become his business in a sense, and he has never had the habit of giving up halfway, coupled with his admiration for Qin Shide's character, thinking of Qin Shide's serious injury yesterday, as soon as he met, he entrusted the safety of the Datong Army, so he nodded and agreed.

Or don't do it, since you want to do it, you will strive to do your best, this is also Li Congjing's habit, when he went forward with Zhang Daqian and others to observe the battlefield, he asked the fifth girl to take the guards and go out to see if there were other Khitan army around. This kind of thing, there are guards including the sharp men of the military intelligence department, and they are naturally skillful.

The Khitan army suddenly appeared outside the Sangqing Pass and knocked on the pass, there were too many questions and strange things, and Li Congjing did not dare to take it lightly.

From time to time, everyone came to a high and low, looking at the Sangganguan from afar.

Sang Kang Pass is Xiongguan, high as a mountain, the Khitan army in front of Xiongguan is dense like ants, is gnawing on the mountain. This scene looks ridiculous, but there are many ants, and they can gnaw through the mountains.

Outside the Sangqing Pass, part of the Khitan army that was attacking the city suddenly withdrew back and re-entered the front line of the main formation. This scene seemed good at first glance, but Zhang Daqian and the others all had gloomy faces, and anger flashed in their eyes.

Because in front of the Sangjia Pass, it was already densely covered with the corpses of the people outside the Yunzhou Pass. The Khitan army retreated, although the offensive was frustrated, but the first thing was that the people who were driven by them to take over the city, including women, children, old and weak, were all dead. The corpses of the people who were disfigured and crooked became the most glaring place.

Chen Li immediately couldn't help it, and wanted to ask for orders to quickly attack the thousands of Khitan troops in Sangganguan.

However, the tragedy did not stop there, before Chen Li spoke, there was another change in front of the Khitan army. Hundreds of Khitan soldiers, escorting dozens of people, came out of the formation and stopped at Sangganguan. They made the dozens of people kneel, supplemented by knives, and another Khitan sergeant ran to the front of the pass, shouting loudly to Sangganguan.

Not only Zhang Daqian and the others were flushed with anger, but it was Li Congjing, whose eyes were gloomy.

The dozens of people who were escorted out of the battle by the Khitan sergeants still had Tang military robes on their bodies. Their identities are also clear, they are the defenders outside the pass who were captured by the Khitan army before.

Not long after, the Khitan sergeant who shouted to Sang Kang Pass saw that there was no reaction on the city wall, and suddenly waved his hand.

With a wave of his hand, the Khitan barbarians who forced the defenders outside the pass with their knives immediately raised their sabers in their hands and slashed them down.

For a time, half of the captured border soldiers fell to the ground!

Kill prisoners. Kill the prisoners before the battle!

Everyone present is not a veteran general on the battlefield, who doesn't recognize it, these Khitan soldiers are killing prisoners to vent their anger when they are using prisoners to open the city gate and make up for it!

Everyone returned to the place where the Datong army was assembled and waited, and everyone's face was not good-looking.

Chen Li was about to speak, when a ranger came from the rear and reported to everyone a piece of news that made everyone's hearts sink, "Thirty miles away, there are Khitan elite horsemen following behind!" ”

Soon, the guards who were dispersed by Li Congjing also brought back bad news.

……

A hidden place outside the Sang Kat Pass.

Yelu Enemy Lie looked at the Sang Kang Pass in the distance, there was no expression on his face, and his old and deep eyes were like an abyss that could not be seen, making it difficult for people to peek into the thoughts in his heart, and even the emotions of snooping were extravagant hopes.

In front of Yelu Enemy Lie, there stood a middle-aged general covered in cold sweat with a look of panic.

In the middle of the sound, Yelu Enemy Lie spoke, and his voice did not have a drop of temperature, "Folded the old eight, and let the Datong Army retreat, you fought a wonderful battle, and you deserve to be my good son of Yelu Enemy!" ”

The more Yelu Eireol did not mean to be angry, the more he was worried, because he often meant that Yelu Ger had already departed from the general sense of anger, so angry that he did not have the heart to express his anger to deter others.

Falling to his knees with a sigh, Yelu Pheasant clenched his teeth, not even daring to defend himself or explain, not even daring to make the slightest sound, and did not show that he had deeply realized his mistake with a respectful attitude to the end.

Yelu Enemy Lie looked at Yelu Pheasant, whose body was trembling slightly, and asked, "Do you know, why do I want you to lead your troops to wreak havoc on the border of Yunzhou?" And why did you only give you thousands of soldiers and horses when you learned that Qin Shide had arrived at Sangqing Pass, so that you could enter Qin Shide's field of vision and fight him in the field? Do you know why there is a large army knocking on the pass outside the Sang Kat Pass? Why am I here today? ”

This series of questions fell on Yelu Pheasant's ears, causing him to spin a chill down his spine while causing his mind to work. Yelu Pheasant was not stupid, and at this moment, he could already feel that in the answer to this series of questions, there was an astonishing plan of Yelu Lielie, and it was even possible that it was a layout beyond his imagination. And as a part of this layout, his actions were completely defeated, as the righteous son of Yelu Enemy, he actually destroyed this layout with his own hands, how could he not be very apprehensive, walking on thin ice?

Although Yelu Enemy Lie seems to be like a Confucian general, as the righteous son of Yelu Enemy Lie, Yelu Pheasant clearly knows that under the gentle and polite mask of Yelu Enemy Lie, there is a decisive and ruthless heart. Otherwise, how could Yelu Enemy Lie sit firmly in the position of the North Courtyard in today's Khitan Kingdom, which makes countless people covetous? After realizing what a basket he had gotten through, Yelu Pheasant was even afraid that Jelu would take his head off his shoulder in a fit of rage!

Yelu Dilie looked at Sangganguan again, "I will capture Feng and Sheng, include this fertile land for thousands of miles into the territory of the Great Khitan Kingdom, and establish the Yingtian Army at the request of the emperor, and sit here to clear the obstacles for the Great Khitan Kingdom's westward expedition and control the supply and support lines, any of which is as big as it is!" Whether it is to possess this fertile horse farm, to provide the Great Khitan Kingdom with excellent war horses not far away, or to ensure that the road of the Great Khitan Western Expedition is unblocked, so that the Western Expedition can be carried out smoothly, and to expand the territory of the Great Khitan Kingdom, which point of the matter here can be missed? ”

Yelu's tone gradually softened, and he continued: "Sang Kang Pass, the world Xiongguan; Qin Shide, a tiger general of the Tang Dynasty; The Datong Army is also the elite of the Tang Dynasty. There is an army from the west of Sangganguan, Feng and Shengzhou are a smooth road, there is no danger to defend, and the elite soldiers of the Tang Dynasty can go straight to the hinterland of the grassland, which is extremely difficult to deal with; And to enter the Sangkan Pass from Feng and Sheng, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky. Let these three stand at your side, and you can't always be like a man's back, how can you not get rid of them? These three can be removed, not only Feng, Sheng Erzhou and Yingtian fertile land for thousands of miles are safe, once the king has the Sangqing Pass, the Khitan in the coming day to conquer the Central Plains in the south, you can also send troops directly to the back of Youyun, cooperate with the Wang Division, and give Lu Longjun a fatal blow! ”

"Let you wreak havoc on Youyun and go on a killing spree, not for anything else, but to provoke Qin Shide and let him lead the troops out of the customs. This is not a difficult thing, in fact, you have done a good job, Qin Shide was successfully led out of the Sang Qi Pass by you. This king asked you to only bring thousands of soldiers and horses around the border of Yunzhou to meet Qin Shide, just to make him think that he had a chance to defeat you, so as to fight you. The reason why this king appears here today, and the reason why there is a large army knocking on the pass outside the Sang Kan Pass, is that the king wants to take advantage of the fact that the Datong army is out of the pass and the Sang Kam Pass is empty, and it will be broken in one fell swoop! ”

Speaking of this, Yelu Enemy's tone that had eased down suddenly became stern again, he stared at Yelu Pheasant, and said: "Not to mention that you break the Datong Army, as long as you are not too careless, you can hold Qin Shide for a few days, so that the Datong Army can't get out, and this king can calmly take the Sang Kat Pass!" Calmly take the Sang Khan Pass, then everything will be decided, as long as my Khitan army is based on this Xiongguan, then the clouds are all under the threat of my soldiers, and the Tang Dynasty is also under the command of my soldiers, and the world is shrouded in my soldiers! ”

Once this is the case, how about Li Cunmiao, who is sitting in the Central Plains? How about Li Congjing who conquered Pingzhou? It's all in my big Khitan bag! ”

Jerevi took a deep breath to calm his already heaving chest, closed his eyes, was silent for a moment, and when he opened them again, the wisdom and ambition flashed in them, and it was impossible to look at them directly. He said: "Since the founding of the Great Khitan, the emperor has often cherished the ambition of drinking the Yellow River, for many years, the Central Plains has been full of smoke, and the emperor has poured out his army to the south several times. However, the emperor's previous expeditions from the eastern front to the south could not conquer Youzhou, and the war once fell into a stalemate. Why is this, and have you ever wondered why? ”

"Not because of anything else, but because there are too many dangers in the land of clouds, and there are thorns at every step, our army attacks head-on, and often suffers casualties several times that of the enemy, but cannot conquer Tianguan and Xiongcheng!"

"Now, this king wants to capture the Sangkan Pass, from the western front for my Khitan army to open up the hinterland of Youyun, or even the road to the Central Plains, what a good plan, what an amazing layout, the general trend of the world, almost because of this king and change! And you, Yelu Pheasant, as the first righteous son of this king, the layout of this king's painstaking management turned into a naught because of your defeat! How hateful, how hateful! ”

At this point, Yelu Enemy Lie couldn't hold back his anger anymore, kicked the kneeling Yelu Pheasant over, followed by a kick on the head of Yelu Pheasant, and beat it wildly!

Yelu Pheasant didn't even dare to make defensive moves, and let Yelu Pheasant's head shake again and again. After a while, Yelu Pheasant had a blue nose and swollen face, and his face was covered with blood, which was unbearable.

After Yelu Dilie finished venting, his anger finally subsided slightly, he put away his feet, resumed his standing posture, and glanced at Yelu Pheasant who was curled up on the ground, "Kneel down for this king if he is not dead!" ”

Yelu Pheasant struggled desperately, despite his blood-soaked face, and tried to kneel again.

Yelu Dilie's breathing became normal, and he suddenly asked coldly, "You said you saw Li Congjing?" ”

"Yes, with my own eyes...... Said! Yelu Pheasant said intermittently, because his lips were cracked, and his words were not in a tone, and it sounded particularly awkward.

Yelu Dilie said coldly: "Li Congjing is not staying in Youzhou, what are you doing here?" Yes, not long ago, he defeated the generalissimo in Danzhou, and let the generalissimo suffer a defeat outside the Gubei Pass, but he was in high spirits! ”

Li Congjing's defeat of Yelu Deguang in Danzhou, Yelu Enemy Lie knew, but Yelu Pheasant didn't know, he was stunned, he didn't know how the generalissimo, who had always been invincible, suffered a loss in the hands of Li Congjing.

Yelu Enemy snorted coldly, "The generalissimo is also young and vigorous, running thousands of miles to other people's territory, can he not be beaten by others?" Saying this, the tone of the conversation changed, "Li Congjing is a person with some ability, and he can actually make my Great Khitan number - will suffer many losses!" But his good fortune ended here, this time he actually ran out of his cage and came to the king, and no matter what his intentions were, the king will let him come and go! ”
