In the space between 500 and 1,500 meters from the bank of the Yellow River, it has completely become a living purgatory on earth. Countless Jurchen knights, countless Han'er cavalry, wailed in the fire. Countless more fire-resistant war horses are still galloping after their owners turn into a mess of charred black.

When the fire first broke out, Samoulu quickly withdrew to safety with hundreds of his own soldiers. Samouru, who rushed out, was extremely wolf, covered in soot and black.

Zong Han did not blame Samoulu for retreating without permission. His eyes were fixed on his banner, which was burning, and a crockpot had just shattered on top of the flagpole. Zong Han has been fighting for half of his life and has killed countless people, but he also believes in the destiny of heaven. Wanyan Aguta survived many catastrophes without dying, making the Jurchens firmly believe that they were blessed by the Immortal Heaven. Not only ordinary soldiers have this belief, but Zong Han also has this belief.

But today, when it seemed that Zhang Xianbu was about to be completely annihilated, a Haikou Li Bao appeared. The demon fire that this person invited from nowhere can not only burn on the snow, but also in the water. Zong Han clearly saw that some of the golden soldiers who were covered in fire were rolling around on the snow, turning the snow into water, but the fire on their bodies was still burning.

Jin 13 frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly shouted loudly, "Big brother, Prime Minister, I know what is in this crockpot?" It's oil! ”

Xi Yin can be said to be the first genius in the Dajin Kingdom, creating words, making laws, knowing everything, and being omnipotent. It's a pity that since being with Jin Thirteen, I often feel that my brain is not enough. Just like Jin Thirteen has already said that something that can burn in water is called oil, Hee Yin still doesn't understand what oil is.

Jin Shisan thought for a moment and continued, "The oil in Yan and Yan is said to be "Gaonu County produces fat water", which is it. Born in the water, the sand and gravel are mixed with the spring water, "melancholy" and come out, the native people take the pheasant tail to carry it, it is collected into the reed, quite like pure lacquer, burn like hemp, but the smoke is very thick, and the curtain is black. If you suspect that its smoke can be used, try to sweep its coal as ink, black light is like paint, and pine ink is not as good, so it is great. Those who know the text as "Yanchuan Stone Liquid" are also. This thing will be great in the world, and it will be done from the beginning. There is so much oil that it is born in the earth, and it is not as good as pine wood, and it is sometimes exhausted. ”

Xi Yin is also a person who is familiar with poetry and books, and immediately understood the meaning of Jin Thirteen, and immediately praised, "Old Thirteen, a good literary talent." It can be exported into writing. ”

Jin 13 said a little embarrassed, "I didn't write it. This is a text written by a courtier named Shen Kuo during the Song Renzong period. This man wrote a book called Dream Creek Pen Talk. When I was lurking in Yingtianfu, I flipped through this book countless times. This book is very good. ”

"Oh!" When Xi Yin heard that it was written by Shen Kuo, he couldn't help but be a little disappointed and a little happy. "It seems that the miscellaneous books of the Song Kingdom are also good, and I will read more miscellaneous books in the future."

Zong Han was extremely keenly aware of the military value of oil, and immediately asked, "Thirteenth brother, you said that this oil is produced in Yanzhou, Yanzhou?" It looks like we're going to have to inform Lou of the news. Let him do his best to defeat Qu Duan and take these two places. If we have a fire oil bomb, do you think Li Bao's building ship will dare to let us set it on fire? ”

"Not bad!" Xi Yin clapped his hands and praised, "Fire oil is very useful. Lou Mu and Sali must be allowed to take those two places. ”

Seeing that the three of them were talking here, ignoring the Jin soldiers who were screaming in the fire, Samoulu couldn't help but feel a little depressed. But he soon understood that such a fire, which was not even afraid of water, could only be extinguished by itself. Anyway, all the golden soldiers who could run out ran out. The golden soldiers who couldn't escape were either turned to ashes or died under the sword of the Protectors. Zong Han had no choice but to talk about him left and right in the face of Li Bao's fire.

Half an hour later, the fire was finally extinguished. But looking at the remnants of the Protector Army who were retreating leisurely from the pontoon bridge, none of the Jurchen troops dared to rush over and fight. It wasn't until the last of the protectors walked across the pontoon bridge that the Yellow River pontoon bridge collapsed with a bang.

Although several Jurchen households clamored to lead troops to rush forward and give Li Bao some color to see. In fact, it was just to make Zong Han's face look better.

Can Zong Han's face not be ugly? Nearly 70,000 Jurchen iron cavalry, more than 100,000 Han'er troops, faced with more than 40,000 people's protectors, chased for seven days, fought for seven days, not only let the opponent's more than 10,000 cavalry retreat, but also let the opponent's infantry withdraw more than 10,000. killed more than 10,000 protectors, but sacrificed at least 30,000 Han'er troops and nearly 10,000 Jurchen elites. This kind of battle makes no one happy.

Zong Han stood on the bank of the Yellow River, looked at the thousands of protectors on the south bank of the Yellow River, and sighed leisurely. "Could it be that the Mandate of Heaven is not in my Huanglong Mansion now, but has run to Ying Tianfu?"

Not to mention how depressed Zong Han was on the north bank of the Yellow River, and said that Zhang Xian, after successfully crossing the river with the assistance of Li Bao, immediately waved goodbye to Li Bao, Li Bao wanted to stop from Kaide Mansion, and then led the sailors from Caozhou to Yingtianfu. Zhang Xian lined up thousands of remnants of the army into a marching formation, and first walked to Li Cheng's military camp a few miles away from Zhuludu to rest. Li Wei was ordered by General Zongze to defend Zhuludu, but he led his army to Bianliang a few days ago and vacated this military camp, just in time for the people to rest. The thousands of wounded soldiers who crossed the river in the early stage also lived in this military camp under the command of Xue Bi. As if Li Cheng foresaw that the Protector Army was about to retreat, not only did he not demolish the barracks, but he also left some food in the barracks. However, Xue Bi was extremely careful, and after finding the grain, he first found a wild dog for an experiment to see if the grain was poisonous. The result, of course, was that the wild dogs had eaten a full meal, and had been wandering outside the barracks for the past two days, wanting to eat again.

After resting in the barracks for a day, Zhang Xian immediately led the 8,000 soldiers who were still able to fight, and rushed to Lanfeng. As a result, before he arrived at Lanfeng, Zhang Xian received several messages from Ying Tianfu. There are three good news, the first good news is that the defenders of Caozhou have repelled Yan Zongbi, although the Jurchen iron cavalry is stationed in Yunzhou, and it is still eyeing Caozhou, at least there is no danger in the short term. The second piece of good news was that Huang Zong and Wang Tianbao led tens of thousands of militia divisions not only to hold the two places of Taikang in Qixian County, blocking the offensive route of hundreds of thousands of rebels, but also to eliminate the notorious Golden Sword Wang Shan. Several of the brothers of the golden sword Wang Shan died in the hands of Yue Fei, and when they attacked Taikang, they took the golden knife to the city first, but they were thrown by a grenade by a protector and blew down the city several zhang high, and they fell to death on the spot.

The third good news is that Bianliang City has been captured by Li Chengcheng, and now Du Chong's hundreds of thousands of rebels have no way to advance and retreat, and when Dong Xian's more than 10,000 cavalry troops arrived, they had shown signs of collapse. At present, it seems that the catastrophe faced by Ying Tianfu has passed.

Although more than a dozen villages and towns were burned down by more than 10,000 rebels in Taikangqi County, Chenzhou and other places, the losses were not large. Moreover, the people of several counties who had weapons organized themselves and exterminated these rebels in the territory. Although the combat power of the rebels was low, with the strength of the people alone, they actually eliminated more than 10,000 rebels, from which it can be seen that Yue Fei was wise in hiding soldiers among the people.

But the three pieces of good news were not as good as the two pieces of bad news. The first bad news was that Meng An, the deputy commander of the 2nd Infantry Division, died of exhaustion in the fight with Jin Bing. Although this news made Zhang Xian's heart ache, it was not as good as one-tenth of the second bad news.

After Yue Fei, the marshal of the Protector Army, attacked and retreated the Jin soldiers in Caozhou, he was attacked by the dead soldiers sent by the Ghost Fan Tower, and he is currently in a highly poisonous body and unconscious.

When Zhang Xian heard the news, his first reaction was not to believe it. He knew Yue Fei's skills, no matter how powerful the dead man of the Ghost Fan Tower was, it was impossible to hurt Yue Fei. But it was Xu Qing's personal soldier Xu She who came to deliver the news. This is an infallible man.

Faced with Zhang Xian's question, Xu She immediately replied, "What hurt Yue Shuai was a bronze firearm. This thing is extremely powerful, and once it is shot, it is not something that human beings can resist at all. Yue Shuai didn't dodge either. ”

"Bronze firebolt?" Zhang Xian muttered, but immediately moved on to the most important issue. "How is Brother Yue now? Did you call a doctor? Isn't the horse doctor in Ying Tianfu good at detoxification? There is also Doctor Liu, Doctor Wang. By the way, did you invite the Pang Shen Doctor to treat Zong Shuai? ”

Seeing that Zhang Xian was so anxious that he was incoherent, Xu She said secretly, no wonder Brother Xu Qing ordered me to come overnight to pick up Zhang Xian's response to Tianfu. Now that Brother Yue's life and death are unpredictable, only Deputy Marshal Zhang Xian and Zhang can stabilize the military situation in Yingtianfu.

"The famous doctors in Ying Tianfu have all been invited, but Yue Shuai's wounds are festering, and those so-called miracle doctors say that they can't be treated. Alas, all a bunch of quacks. Doctor Pang hasn't arrived at Ying Tianfu yet, but we have also sent Yue Heng to invite him. ”

Seeing that Zhang Xian was about to make a splash again, Xu She immediately said, "Vice Marshal Zhang, Brother Xu Qing asked me to sue you, so that you must respond to Tianfu as quickly as possible." In case Brother Yue has something that is long and short, the Protector Army will depend on you! ”

"Xu Qing is farting!" Zhang Xian really made a direct move this time. "Brother Yue's fortune is great, how can there be three long and two short! Besides, with Master Li Ba in Ying Tianfu, Ying Tianfu will definitely not be in chaos. ”

Seeing that Xu She was no longer talking, Zhang Xian said again, "Brother Yue is absolutely fine." Zhang Xian repeated this sentence five times in a row, and finally let out an angry roar, "Oh my God, don't you really fucking have long eyes?" ”

Fa Biao returned to Fa Biao, Zhang Xian still handed over the command of the infantry to Hua Chaoxi, and he took more than a dozen personal soldiers and rushed to Yingtianfu day and night. But what made Zhang Xian angry was that he actually encountered a second interception on the road. The first wave of killers was obviously in the style of Ghost Fan Lou, and they were actually ambushed in the snow, and when Zhang Xian passed by, they suddenly broke out. It's a pity that Zhang Xian has already seen the strangeness from the suddenly thickened road snow, and more than a dozen killers have just emerged, and they have been divided by the elite knives of the battle-hardened back. If the killer wants to compete with the elite soldiers of a hundred battles, he will have to train for another few decades.

But when Zhang Xian rushed to Chenzhou, he was intercepted again. This wave of assassins was obviously the elite soldiers of a hundred battles, with a total of more than 60 people, disguised as business travelers, and launched an attack on Zhang Xian in the south of Chenzhou City. In the end, only three of the dozen or so rebels were killed, but more than fifty Assassins were killed. Eventually, the Assassins fled. Zhang Xian and Xu She took three personal soldiers and flew to Yingtianfu at a speed like a storm.

The two waves of assassinations made Zhang Xian's heart even more bottomless. He was worried that Yue Fei was unconscious. However, when he stepped into Ying Tianfu City on a flying horse, he saw that although Xu Qing's face was melancholy, there was no sadness, he immediately relieved his heart.

Brother Yue must be fine.
