"Go, put the head of the head of the city lord in front of my case!"

Liu Fa looked at Qing Yunfei with satisfaction, patted him lightly on the shoulder, then smiled loudly, and pointed to the already scarred Hucheng in front of him.

The defenders of Tojo were greatly alarmed by the sudden appearance of the Northern Expeditionary Army outside the city, and their lord hastily ordered the city gate to be closed, blocking all the people outside the city who had not yet had time to enter the city.

Qing Yunfei didn't care about the life or death of the people of your Great Xia Kingdom, and when he saw that Hucheng was in a hurry, he immediately ordered the whole army to attack the city. Since the Northern Expeditionary Army rushed over on a hurried march, no large weapons were transported, and the only thing that could be used during the attack was the ladder.

This is a real hand-to-hand combat, and it is also a style of play that the Liu army is familiar with, without the use of siege weapons, relying entirely on manpower to go up.

The battle between the two sides had not lasted long when the elite of the Northern Expeditionary Army, which had previously blended into the city, suddenly attacked and rushed up from behind the defenders.

This was much more than the defenders expected, and the people were already afraid of the Northern Expeditionary Army, and their fighting spirit was not strong, but now there was chaos inside, and the defense line was torn to pieces all at once. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Northern Expeditionary Army outside the city rushed to the top of the city in one fell swoop and started a face-to-face white-knuckle battle with the defenders.

In the short handover, even the barbarians had to bow down to the Northern Expedition in front of the Liufa army, let alone the Great Xia Army?

In the battle of Tocheng, it took only two hours before and after, and the defense of the Great Xia army was completely destroyed, and all the soldiers were scattered, and they fled for their lives in the city like a plate of scattered sand.

The Northern Expeditionary Army did not leave a chance for the opponent to breathe, and chased after the Great Xia Army, and the two sides started a chaotic street battle in the city of Tojo.

At this point in the battle, the Great Xia army had no fighting spirit, and there was no suspense in the battle, and in the end, the defenders of Tojo were defeated, including its main general, and were cut down by the Northern Expeditionary Army.

Perhaps it was too easy to win this battle, or perhaps the soldiers of the Northern Expeditionary Army were too tired after the battle for several days, after the occupation of the city, it was rare that there was no large-scale massacre, and half of the Northern Expeditionary Army was stationed in the city and half outside the city for a short rest and adjustment.

Speaking of the imperial capital, the willow felling is like a broken bamboo, which naturally shocked the imperial capital, and Shaowu Hengyong was also a little unable to sit still, and immediately sent the surrounding teams to suppress the Liuhua army, but the Liuhua army was mighty, and it was terrifying, and everywhere he passed, the ghosts and gods were shocked, how could the surrounding cities dare to fight with the Liuhua, unconsciously, the liufa was getting closer and closer to the imperial capital.

Shaowu Hengyong is anxious and angry, thinking in his heart that he is looking forward to Yue Hu's army returning to the dynasty, laying down Wolf Mountain as soon as possible, and returning to aid Dijing, but there is no news at all, in fact, Yue Hu's army is now considered to be a lone army in depth, and now their retreat is gone, and the supply of grain and grass is not enough, only by constantly moving forward, killing into the territory of Dog Rong, taking Wolf Mountain, and waiting until the snow disappears to open the road, there is a chance to turn around.

His messenger can only be in a hurry in Shuitian County, but there is no way, the road ahead is already an avalanche, where can I still get in touch, even if Yue Hu is dead, no one knows, so the herald who came did not dare to go back, he did not dare to pass this despair to the imperial capital, once he went back, maybe the imperial capital really could not be saved, even if he could keep it, I am afraid that his head would not be able to be saved.

But in fact, what are Yue Hu and Liu Lian doing, they have now left Yan Kill Ridge, and the army has marched towards Wolf Mountain......

Walking through Yan Kill Ridge, it seems to have entered another world, everyone was stunned, why do you say that, because near this Wolf Mountain, it is really strange and strange, they killed all the way from Shuitian County, the cold wind is biting, but walking here, it is like entering another world.

The snow-capped mountains have disappeared, and what follows is the vast desert, as far as the eye can see, only a few hundred miles near the wolf mountain, with a paradise-like scene.

"The terrain of this wolf mountain is dangerous, and we still don't know how many soldiers and horses there are around, so we should be cautious!"

Liu Jian and Yue Hu stood side by side, looking at the Wolf Mountain in the distance, there was a faint worry in their eyes, but in Yue Hu's eyes, there was a fiery light, Yunding Mountain on the side, and the other generals were also fiery, eager to step on the Wolf Mountain immediately and regain the majesty of the year.

Yue Hu waved his hand, shook his head with a smile, and then said to Liu Lian: "Now is the time to wait, we don't have much food and grass, what we want is a surprise...... It is better to put yourself in your shoes and take a look. ”

Seeing what Liu Jian was going to say, Yue Hu laughed, he had already walked to the front, Liu Jian smiled bitterly, and said: "I'm afraid that after reading it, Marshal Yue will lose even the desire to attack." ”

"Not necessarily, haha!" Yue Hu smiled, and led a group of generals with Liu Jian towards the hills in the distance.

"Well, it's someone!"

The group of them walked up the hillside, then lay down again, and looked not far away, only to see the first camp set up by the dog Rongman riding on the mountain.

This camp was built on a gentle slope, and if you want to attack, you have to attack from the bottom up, and the terrain alone will put the attacker into a three-point disadvantage. Yue Hu and Liu Jian and the others didn't dare to get too close, the two of them looked at the enemy camp from a distance of 100 meters, and after watching for a while, Liu Lian turned his head to look at Yue Hu and asked, "What does Marshal Yue think?" ”

"It's not easy to attack!" Yue Hu was silent for a long time, and he didn't have any good ideas in his heart, and after a long time, he said such a sentence, he frowned, looked up at the sky, and muttered: "The naivety here is not like the northwest border!" ”

Now it is winter, and the surroundings are bare, only some pines and cypresses, standing on the hills, Liu Lian glanced at him, did not speak, the weather in this wolf mountain, is really a little strange.

Yue Hu brushed his beard, suddenly, his face was a little sticky, he touched it with his hand, the taste was really a little pungent, and it was the same as paste, he raised his head suddenly, looked at the trees beside him, and saw that the trees on the left and right slopes were tall and stout, straight to the sky, he asked Liu Lian: "Lord Liu, what kind of trees grow on the mountain?" ”

What tree? Liu Jian looked at him strangely, and couldn't help but underestimate in his heart: Could it be that Yue Hu was so confused that he didn't even know the pine tree? He took a deep breath and said, "It's all pines. ”

"Pine, well, good, pine, has a nature, haha!" Yue Hu nodded, turned his horse's head, and walked towards the shade of a nearby tree. When he got to the bottom of the tree, he turned over and dismounted, touched the trunk of the tree, raised his eyes and looked at the canine barbarian riding camp opposite, the corners of his mouth raised, he sneered, and said to the people behind him: "Tonight, we will sneak attack the enemy village!" ”

Sneak attack at night? Liu Lian's generals all showed a stunned look on their faces, the enemy village was heavily defended, it was not easy to attack during the day, and it could be defeated by a sneak attack at night? Liu Lian's eyes rolled and asked, "Marshal Yue has thought of a clever plan to break the enemy?" ”

Yue Hu smiled indifferently and said, "I don't dare to say the clever plan, but if it goes well, it will be no problem to take three or four camps in a row tonight." ”

When Liu Jian heard this, he wondered, just now he was still frowning, and he had no confidence in whether he could break through the enemy village, how could he become full of confidence in the blink of an eye? How is it possible to take three or four enemy villages in a row? Liu Lian was puzzled, but he didn't ask, anyway, when he returned to the camp to make tactical arrangements, Yue Hu would naturally say the 'clever plan' he thought of.

After inspecting the camp of the dog Rong barbarian cavalry, on the way back to his own camp, Yue Hu asked the surrounding generals as he walked: "How many armor are there in our army?" ”

A general of the Great Xia Army immediately replied: "It's not much, but some were captured when capturing the Dog Rong Barbarian Cavalry, no more than 10,000 sets." ”

The places where the Great Xia army passed, basically killed all the dogs and barbarian horsemen, and the captives captured by the Great Xia army were only some stragglers, and there were very few of them.

Yue Hu pondered for a while and said, "Although it is a little less, it is almost enough." "The weather in the mountains is unpredictable, and during the day the sky is clear and cloudless, but at night, it is so cloudy that you can't see your fingers. This kind of weather is of course very favorable to the party that wants to sneak attack at night, but Yue Hu is face is gloomy, frowning, and he is a little undecided whether to do it tonight.

After much consideration, he decided to act tonight and try his luck. Under the cover of night, the Great Xia side quietly pushed out the stone throwers and city-breaking crossbows in the army, and quietly transported them to the front of the dog Rong barbarian cavalry camp. The range of the stone thrower and the city-breaking crossbow were both two or three hundred steps away, but Great Xia kept pushing the stone-throwing machine and the city-breaking crossbow until it was only one hundred and fifty steps away from the Dog Rong Barbarian Cavalry Camp before stopping. At such a close distance, the Great Xia soldiers transporting the stone throwers and the city-breaking crossbows could clearly see the swaying and swinging torches.

People subconsciously held their breath, half-squatted on the ground, and did not dare to move. In fact, if the dog Rong barbarian rider can really see their side, even if they don't move, it is useless, after all, the size of the stone thrower and the city-breaking crossbow are too huge, and they can't hide if they want to, but the visibility tonight is too low, and the dog Rong barbarian rider on the wall can see about twenty steps at best, and can't see them at all.

Just when the Great Xia soldiers were all raising their hearts to their throats, an order from Yue Hu suddenly came from the rear, asking them to attack immediately. Several Great Xia soldiers walked out of the crowd carrying oil drums and poured the oil into the trench that had been dug in advance.

Then, blow the fire fold and ignite the fire oil in the ditch. In an instant, as if a fiery snake had emerged from the ground, the long trench burst into flames. The Great Xia soldiers, who had been prepared for a long time, took advantage of the fire in the ditch to light the torches, and then used the torches to burn the stone bullets of the stone throwing machine and the crossbow arrows of the city-breaking crossbow.

Stone bullets and crossbow arrows have been specially treated by the Great Xia army, crossbow arrows are directly soaked in fire oil, while stone bullets are composed of several pieces of broken stone, which are also soaked in fire oil, and then tied together by hemp rope. Stone bullets and crossbow arrows were sticky to the fire, and for a while, the Great Xia stone thrower and the city-breaking crossbow were on fire, and the fire was shining.

If there is no fire on their side, the dog Rong barbarian rider on the walled wall can't see here, and at this time, there is a fire on their side, how can the dog Rong barbarian ride not find out?

"What's going on over there? Why did it suddenly catch fire? ”

A sharp-eyed canine soldier was the first to notice the anomaly outside the camp and screamed loudly. The other dog soldiers also looked at each other and said in a gossipy voice: "Could it be a mountain fire?" ”

"No, there was no thunder and no lightning just now, where did the wildfire come from!"

"Could it be...... Is it a night attack by enemy troops? ”

Just when the dog was still guessing what was going on with the fire outside the camp, all of a sudden, the little bit of fire in the black curtain flew up rapidly, catapulted into the air, and then, drawing a semicircular arc, smashed down on the top of their heads.

"Not good! It's an enemy attack! It was the enemy who stole the camp at night—"

It was only at this time that the dog Rong barbarian cavalry reacted, and the fire outside the camp was not a mountain fire, but was ignited by Great Xia. But at this time, the reaction is over, the burning stone bullets falling from the sky seem to be the fire of heaven descending from the earth, smashing on the wall, making a crisp sound, the impact force in the damage to the wall at the same time, will also be tied to the stone bullet of the hemp rope broken, scattered stones splashed everywhere, the worst thing is that the stones are attached to the flames, and the wall is sticky fire, want to extinguish can not be extinguished.

The camps set up by the dog Rong Man in the mountains are all built with local materials and pine trees in the mountains. In this way, firstly, there is residual strength, and secondly, pine wood is hard, and it is tall and strong, and it is very common to use it to build defenses.

But it has a fatal weakness, that is, it is afraid of fire, and it will give birth to pine oil, and once the pine oil is ignited, it is difficult to extinguish it. During the day, when Yue Hu came to inspect, it was when he saw the pine trees all over the mountains that he suddenly thought that the camp where the dog Rong rode was probably made of wood, because in the northwest border, there was not much soil, so they had so many bricks and stones, so the city wall of the dog Rong did not have the appearance of a city wall at all, it could only be regarded as made of sand and soil, and it was vulnerable.

The Dog Rong Army didn't expect that in this Wolf Mountain, there would be an enemy attack, who are these people, how did they come, did they fly over?

It is unknown what about the robe on the Yan Killing Ridge, where Yechi Bijie died, and similarly, no one will answer their questions......

Yue Hu's fire attack strategy had a miraculous effect, and he was caught off guard by the dog Rong Man. The stone bullets burning with flames, like a meteor shower falling from the sky, the scene is charming, but for the dog Rong barbarian rider in the camp, it is more like a terrible nightmare, and he is in hell.

When the stone bomb hits the ground, it immediately shatters, and the burning stones bounce everywhere, and the pine sticks to the fire, and the cowhide tent is not the same?

Just in an instant, the camp of the dog Rong barbarian rode fell into a sea of fire, the wall of the wall became a wall of fire, the tent became a fire, and the Mo soldiers who were originally standing on the wall were burned into a burning man, wailing, screaming, struggling to jump off the wall, with the crisp sound of landing, the cry also stopped abruptly, and finally the body was burned into black charcoal by the fire.

And those Mo soldiers who slept in the camp tent were even worse, many of them were still asleep, burned to soot in a daze. The Dog Rong Barbarian Cavalry camp was set on fire everywhere, and everywhere you could see panicked and scattered Dog Rong Barbarian Cavalry soldiers, everywhere was filled with the smell of burnt flesh and paste, and the corpses that were burned to the point that the skin and flesh were deformed could be seen everywhere.

At this time, the dog barbarian riding camp has become a veritable hell on earth. How could the battle-hardened Great Xia army miss such an opportunity, Yue Hu directly ordered, and nearly 10,000 Great Xia soldiers wearing dog Rong barbarian cavalry uniforms and armor rushed out of their own camp and went straight to the dog Rong barbarian cavalry camp.

In order to distinguish between their own and their enemies, each of them tied a yellow-green ribbon around their arms. This group of disguised Great Xia troops were almost unhindered, and rushed directly to the camp where the dog Rong was riding.

Raise your eyes and look forward, well, now you don't even have to find a way to break open the gate of the camp where the dog Rong is riding the camp, because the gate has long been burned down, and they rush directly into the camp in one breath.

With the invasion of this batch of Great Xia troops, it was equivalent to giving the final blow to the dog Rong barbarian cavalry in the camp, and they were burned dizzy, and they couldn't tell where the southeast and northwest dog Rong barbarian cavalry soldiers still had the slightest power to resist, and the Great Xia army that was rushed in was like chopping wood and cutting vegetables, and they were cut down to the ground one after another. The rest of the dog Rong barbarian cavalry lost all their fighting spirit, and no longer had the intention of fighting, and the panic was like a lost dog, screaming and fleeing to the second camp of the dog Rong barbarian.

The so-called defeat is like a mountain, and that's it, where is there still a trace of fighting spirit in the dog Rong barbarian ride, in the fire of the big night, they fled in embarrassment, and began to go to the dog Rong royal court not far away.

Yue Hu also understands the reason of poor Kou Mochasing, now their position is very awkward, although this place used to be the territory of Great Xia, but it has never been in the hands of Great Xia, so he did not dare to chase rashly, he could only clean the battlefield first, and see if the grain and grass on this ridge were damaged by the fire.
