After Li Zhun returned to the tent, he sat on the chair in a daze. ｛｝

On the table in front of him was a map.

It was a map of Xinzhou all the way north of the Yellow River, and it clearly marked the distribution of forces between Anliao and Liao.

But now, this distribution of forces has changed a lot!

What made Li Zhun rack his brains and couldn't figure it out was why Di Qing would make such a big mistake by following the cavalry of the Liao State?

Even if Di Qing is light, judging from Di Qing's performance in Shandong, he can at least be regarded as a famous general!

Moreover, Di Qing is also one of the two army commanders of this imperial expedition, he is a military genius that Xiao Mo is full of, and he is a favorite general that Xiao Mo has high hopes for!

But...... This time, Di Qing was inexplicably derelict in his duties!

In fact, Di Qing has never been aware of this dereliction of duty.

In other words, Di Qing has already noticed it, because Di Qing has been following the cavalry led by Meng Gongzuo from a distance since he left Xinzhou, after finding Meng Gongzuo's cavalry.

The cavalry of the An Dynasty and the cavalry of the Liao State kept a distance, of course...... There are a lot of people on both sides, hundreds of thousands of people get together, and it is difficult to lose them!

So Li Zhun guessed wrong, Di Qing never lost it!

Because Di Qing's cavalry has always followed behind the Liao cavalry, this situation has lasted for a long time.

The cavalry of the Liao State also knew that there was such a large group of men and horses behind them, but they were like people who had nothing to do, and they had been cruising in the open space in the north of Xinzhou, and they didn't mean to get close to Dingxiang or Xinzhou at all!

Moreover, what made Di Qing realize that something was wrong was that the cavalry of the Liao State had been cruising around Tianya Mountain in Yuanping, and they seemed to be very clear about the movements of their army.

It feels like his 200,000 cavalry being led by the nose of the other party in circles!

Finally, at noon, Di Qing sensed that something was wrong.

Because when he followed the Liao cavalry to the south of Tianya Mountain, he found a team of horseshoe prints heading south on the ground!

This horseshoe print is obviously not new, because judging from the horseshoe prints on the ground, it seems that the horseshoe prints to the south were the first to step on the ground.

Later, after many times of trampling, the original horseshoe prints were somewhat invisible.

But Di Qing still discovered this suspicious place vigilantly, and then went off the horse with Yang Paifeng to investigate!

Follow the horseshoe prints, go all the way south, come to the front of a forest, and then the horseshoe prints going south are much clearer.

Because of the past few hours, Di Qing has been circling Tianya Mountain with 200,000 cavalry and the cavalry of the Liao State, but he has not come to the side of the woods.

So the horseshoe prints next to this forest are still very well preserved!

Looking at the scale of the horseshoe prints, the number of people and horses should be at least more than 50,000!

Because the outside of the whole forest is densely covered with horseshoe prints.

Not good!

Di Qing reacted, and then glanced at Yang Paifeng.

Yang Paifeng and Di Qing After Di Qing surfaced their hearts, the relationship between the two progressed very quickly, and now almost as long as Di Qing looked at him, Yang Paifeng could see what he meant!

From Di Qing's eyes, Yang Paifeng saw chagrin and shock.

Indeed, Yang Paifeng was also shocked, because if these horseshoe prints really represented the iron cavalry of the Liao State to go south, then the enemy's goal would be very clear!

It's definitely Xinzhou!

Di Qing hurriedly turned over and got on his horse, and then said to Yang Paifeng: "I will lead 50,000 horses to Xinzhou for reinforcements, and you will continue to follow Meng Gongzuo with people!" ”

Yang Paifeng heard this: "I'll go with you!" ”

Di Qing shook his head and said, "No! The authenticity of these horseshoe marks is difficult to distinguish, and it is difficult to guarantee that they are not a trick made by Meng Gong! Meng Gong is a strange soldier for this person, we have to guard against it, we can't fall for his plan to divert the tiger from the mountain! If you go to Xinzhou with me, at this time, Meng Gongzuo will lead the men and horses to Dingxiang for reinforcements, and Lord Li will be attacked by the enemy! ”

Yang Paifeng felt that Di Qing's words were reasonable, so he said to Di Qing: "Since Meng Gong's soldiers are so weird, I'm afraid I won't be able to look at him!" ”

Although Yang Paifeng has always been more proud, in front of her lover, she shows her frank side more and says whatever she wants.

Moreover, this is a battlefield after all, Yang Paifeng is a member of the Yang family, so he naturally knows that on the battlefield, there can be no arrogance and luck, so he told Di Qing his thoughts.

Di Qing thought about it, and said to Yang Paifeng: "That's it!" Looking at the number of horses' hooves, it is estimated that the Liao army should not exceed 60,000 horses, and I will quickly reinforce Xinzhou with 80,000 horses and you......"

Yang Paifeng said: "Not 80,000, there are still defenders in Xinzhou, as long as 50,000 horses!" ”

Di Qing knew that Yang Paifeng was afraid that she would take too many men and horses, which would cause his cavalry and Meng Gongzuo's cavalry to be at a disadvantage in terms of strength, so he was only willing to ask for 50,000 horses.

Knowing Yang Paifeng's stubborn temperament, and Xinzhou had to reinforce as soon as possible, because it was obvious that the cavalry of the Liao State had left the woods before the arrival of his own soldiers and horses, so Di Qing didn't have time to persuade Yang Paifeng, so he said to Yang Paifeng: "Then be careful yourself!" And also...... If the Xinzhou camp has been broken, don't come back, go directly to the south, to Taiyuan for reinforcements! ”

Yang Paifeng knew the meaning of Di Qing's words, so he nodded solemnly to him, indicating that he understood!

Di Qing glanced at Yang Paifeng again, there was some reluctance in his eyes, and finally he gritted his teeth and said, "Paifeng, you also know...... This time we made a mistake, if it ...... If Taiyuan is in danger and can't hold it, please be sure to protect the emperor thoroughly, please! ”

When it came to the final separation, Di Qing still couldn't say the love words in his heart that he cared about Yang Paifeng, but changed it to let Yang Paifeng protect the emperor.

Protecting the emperor, Yang Paifeng naturally knew this truth, and she didn't notice that when Di Qing finished saying the last word, there was a complicated look in Di Qing's eyes.

Seeing Yang Pai's sassy posture riding a horse and leaving with the people and horses, Di Qing immediately watched the knife in place for a long time.

Until Yang Paifeng disappeared from Di Qing's field of vision with the men and horses, Di Qing angrily pulled the horse's head, then looked at the soldiers behind him and said, "Brothers! We were tricked by the Liao! ”

The soldiers panicked when they heard this, and the commander said that they were given by the enemy, and of course they were even more confused!

And so people started whispering.

At this time, Di Qing spoke again: "They have been taking us around in circles, in fact, they have already sent people to attack Xinzhou!" Now it is very likely that General Liang is already in danger, brothers, you say! What do we do now? ”
