Yang Hu thought for a moment and looked at Liu Sheng: "Sir, Li Hao has an army of 120,000. They defended against all odds, and their morale was high. The 40,000 cavalry of the head of the family were blocked from returning, and now the grain and grass are unsustainable, and they are unbearable to fight. With only 5,000 soldiers and horses, it will be difficult to rescue them."

"If you don't do it, how do you know if it works or doesn't". Liu Sheng looked at Yang Hu and asked rhetorically.

Yang Hu fell into contemplation again, 5,000 soldiers and horses were just a drop in the bucket for 120,000 enemy troops. What role can they play: "According to the ancestral training, Mr. holds a jade pendant and transfers 5,000 troops, I have nothing to say." But with the current situation, once these 5,000 soldiers and horses encounter an accident, then Xiazhou will really have to resign itself to fate."

"I naturally understand that once these 5,000 soldiers and horses are lost. If Western Xia attacks Xiazhou, you will be powerless to support, and there will be cities and passes everywhere. With those defenders alone, they naturally couldn't resist for long. Dare to ask the Great Elder, even if these 5,000 soldiers and horses have been in Xiazhou, how long will you be able to support them at that time." Liu Sheng understood the Yang family's predicament at this time, and asked directly.

Yang Fan looked at Liu Sheng and couldn't help but interject: "Unless the imperial court is sending a large army at this time, or there is a glimmer of life." Otherwise, it can only be regarded as a dying struggle."

"If you want to break the situation now, only rescuing Yang Yong's 40,000 iron horsemen is the best policy. When the time comes, in addition, 30,000 defenders. Advance can be attacked, retreat can be defended. Xia Zhou's talent is truly impregnable". Liu Sheng's words are universally recognized, if Yang Yong's 40,000 cavalry can really be rescued, then this war can be regarded as a big victory. After all, Western Xia suffered heavy losses in this battle, and at least for ten years, it was unable to attack Xia Prefecture again.

Yang Hu shook his head, how could he not know what Liu Sheng said: "With only 5,000 soldiers and horses, among the 120,000 enemy troops." For 40,000 poor and weak allies. It's easier said than done."

"The five thousand soldiers and horses of the Great Elder, since they are placed in Xiazhou, they can't change the situation. Then why don't you give this army to Brother Sheng to try. If Yang Yong and the others are rescued, we will naturally be very happy. If you can't save it, the worst outcome. It's just that it's still like this." Jia Fu understands that whether he does it or not is a result, so why not try it. Maybe, maybe you can get that glimmer of life. is saying that this is not, and Brother Sheng is out of the horse, what is there to worry about.

Yang Fan looked at Yang Hu and couldn't help but interject: "Grandpa, if the family master's 40,000 iron horsemen are trapped and killed in Lingzhou. I'm afraid that the next moment, Li Hao will enter Xiazhou, and we will also be unable to escape the doom. Instead of living here for a few days, it is better to kill in Lingzhou and go to Bona to survive."

"A glimmer of life ......". Yang Hu fell into deep thought, what they said was reasonable, but after all, this was a matter of nine deaths and no life.

Liu Sheng saw Yang Hu pondering, weighing the pros and cons, and explained: "The Great Elder is actually not as bad as you see. The reason why Li Hao wanted to trap Yang Yong was to preserve his strength. Avoid unnecessary losses in your own troops. With the might of a great victory, he returned to the Quartet and frightened off the Liao, Uighurs, and Tibet. What we want, what we really face. In fact, there were only 60,000 enemy troops in the nameless mountains. As long as the nameless mountain range is cleared, Yang Yong's 40,000 iron horsemen can return to Xiazhou smoothly."

"There is some truth in your analysis. But these 5,000 against 60,000 are still full of difficulties." Yang Hu heard the comparison of the forces of the two sides, and at this time he breathed a sigh of relief.

Liu Sheng pondered for a while, weighing and thinking in his heart: "If the Great Elder can let these five thousand people, promise me a condition." I'm sure I'll bring most of them back alive."

"Please speak". When Yang Fan heard Liu Sheng's words, he couldn't help but ask directly.

Liu Sheng didn't say anything, just looked at Yang Hu, saw him nod slightly, and said his conditions: "No matter what I do, they must obey orders, even if it is to death."

"I Yang Fan can promise you this, as long as you can rescue the family master. Let us have 5,000 brethren kill ourselves together, and we will not frown a single brow." Yang Fan preemptively replied that Liu Sheng was the benefactor who saved him from the Yang family, a population of hundreds of thousands. The ancients said: The grace of a drop of water will be reciprocated by a spring. What's more, they are the Yang family with clear grievances. There are only 5,000 people, what a way.

Yang Hu nodded and made a decision in his heart. Instead of sitting and waiting to die, it is better to give it a go: "I appoint Fan'er as a deputy general to assist you, and the army will obey orders."

"Elder Xie is complete, without further ado, we should immediately transfer troops to Lingzhou." When Liu Sheng saw that Yang Hu agreed, he didn't say much, and said goodbye directly. Saving people is like fighting a fire, and if you arrive a day earlier, you will have a better chance of winning.

Yang Hu got up, sent the three of them to the outside of the house, and handed over the jade pendant to Liu Sheng: "The old man is in Xiazhou, waiting for the good news of Mr."

"Please also rest assured, the Great Elder, we will leave ...... wait." Liu Sheng and Jia Fu saluted and resigned, Yang Fan turned over and got on the horse and took the group away. Yang Hu looked at their distant backs and was silent for a long time.

In the school field, 5,000 soldiers and horses are training. More than a dozen generals, seeing Yang Fan running on horseback with a group of people, hurriedly greeted him: "The general's family can agree, our request."

"Since the formation of the army, I have been ordered to exterminate the tribe of the party in this state every day. When will we be able to go to war".

"The blood feud in the family can't be avenged, I can't wait to fly into Lingzhou now, kill him without leaving a piece of armor."

"General, Great Elder, do they disagree?" The more the generals talked, the more excited they became, their fathers all died under Li Hao's raid.

Yang Fan and his entourage turned over and dismounted, and when they saw these generals asking one by one, they pointed to Liu Sheng and Jia Fu and introduced: "This is Liu Sheng, this is Jia Fu." This time, Liu Sheng will be the main general, and Jia Fu and I will be the deputy generals."

"What? We can really send troops to attack Li Hao."

"Those old stubborns in the family really agreed."

"Wait, Lord? ……“。 As soon as these words came out, the audience was silent. There are grumpy ones, and they scold: "Where did the unknown people come from, they actually want to be our main generals".

"If you want to be a general, you should be a general, no matter what, it will not be the turn of this unknown person."

"Except for the general, anyone who is in the position of the chief general, we will not accept ......."

After Yang Fan listened, he pointed at these generals and scolded: "You still know etiquette, know kindness and righteousness, and distinguish between right and wrong." Do you want the people of the world to laugh at me, Yang, the one who will take revenge? “。

"General Ho Laien will take revenge". A group of generals, looking at each other.

Yang Fan didn't pay attention to them, but just took Liu Sheng, Jia Fu and his party to the innermost high platform in the school field, and shouted: "Drumming."

"Knock knock knock ......". A guard ran to give the order, and after a while the drums sounded. The soldiers in the school field hurriedly stopped the drill and quickly assembled.

After a while, the drumming gradually stopped. Liu Sheng stood in the middle of the high platform, and Yang Fan and Jia Fu stood on both sides. Look at the soldiers below, assembled. Yang Fan looked down and announced loudly: "From now on, Liu Sheng will serve as the chief general of the whole army." An hour later, the unnamed mountain range of Lingzhou was sent to the army".

"The last general will not accept ......". As soon as the words fell, several generals hurriedly stood up and expressed their disbelief.

Yang Fan angrily scolded several generals: "You can forget, my Yang soul."

"I've seen Eun Gong ......." A jade pendant was taken out of Liu Sheng's hand, and it was extremely dazzling in the sunlight. Countless years of precipitation have made the word Enyi deeply engraved in the blood of every Yang child. One soldier couldn't help but kneel on the ground and salute.
