The general of the Liao State didn't see the knife at all, he only felt that his eyes were white, his neck was cold, and the strength on his body disappeared suddenly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Kill!"

All he heard was a heartfelt roar from his opponent, the spear in his hand falling to the ground, and he covered the wound on his neck with his hand, but it all seemed so futile.

The general's death exacerbated the confusion of the Liao soldiers. Ning Ge'er rushed out with the remnants of several hundred Mongolian cavalry, but the situation did not improve for them in the slightest.

In the rear, countless Liao cavalry rushed to kill, everyone with bows and arrows, to show their riding and archery skills.

Ning Ge'er sighed in his heart, those Mongolians all knew that the general trend was gone, and it was impossible to fight, so it was up to them to see how much they could run away. Without Ning Ge'er's order, the Mongolian cavalry quickly dispersed the formation, and at the same time used their cavalry and archery skills to begin to counterattack the Liao.

Their sparse bows and arrows were not at all the same level as the overwhelming feather arrows of the Liao pursuers behind them, and many Mongols were shot off their horses.

Ning Ge'er was obviously the main target of the other party's shooting, and he desperately turned around and cut down those feathered arrows that were floating towards him. But there were too many feather arrows, and after a few blows, there was a sharp pain in his shoulder blade, his body shook, his arm waved a little slower, and another arrow was inserted into the body of the war horse.

The war horse neighed and threw Ning Ge'er off the horse. Brother Ning's heart is over!

In this moment, he remembered his father, his mother. I don't know why, he still thinks of Chen Shimei, does he hate him? Are you going to kill him? At this life-and-death juncture, a big hand behind him suddenly pulled up Ning Ge'er who was about to be on the ground, and a Mongolian cavalryman turned over and dismounted, and helped Ning Ge onto the horse: "You go!" ”

Brother Ning turned around to save them, and now he gave Brother Ning the chance to live, this is the battlefield!

Ning Ge'er didn't hesitate, and after running forward on his horse for a while, he turned around and saw that the Mongol had been caught up by the Liao people and cut to the ground.

He didn't even know what his name was.

With a grit of his teeth, Ning Ge'er desperately ran around the horse's neck, and the shouts of killing were gradually thrown away in the distance.

Jermane's purring eyes stared at his gradually fading back farther and farther away, and he was very unwilling in his heart, but there was nothing he could do.

Although he didn't kill Ning Ge'er, but this battle can be regarded as a victory for the Liao people, from Yelu Nie Gulu to the present, he has continued to lead his troops to victory, and the Mongols in the north have been continuously expelled by them, which has made his prestige in the Liao country rise very quickly. Not only the ministers and generals, but also most of the civilians and ordinary soldiers of the Liao State also believed that Yelu Gollu could lead them out of their current predicament.

But Yelu knew that it was actually getting more and more difficult for Da Liao now.

The Mongols were just a problem for the Song Dynasty, and although they had defeated the Mongols many times, they did not have a single real war of annihilation. This trouble is just far away, it is not solved, it will come again sooner or later.

Surrounded by the allies of the Great Song, those Jurchens also joined the Great Song, and the Song Dynasty is currently selecting qualified warriors from among the Jurchens. The Jurchens are less than 10,000 and invincible, this is the warning left by the ancestors of the Khitan people. But now, according to what Yelu Gollu knows, the Song Dynasty has gathered at least 20,000 Jurchen warriors, who are in armed training and will soon be put into battle.

It's just trouble in the military, and Yerune is not afraid, he has the courage to face anyone who wants to challenge him with a knife, even if it's a Jurchen.

The knives that can kill people are often the kind of invisible soft knives. In the face of Chen Yuan's economic offensive, Yelu Gollum could not cope with it.

The Song Dynasty had completely blockaded the economy of the Liao people, which left the Liao State with insufficient provisions to restore his otherwise strong body. Seeing that winter is coming, the average family in Liao is now very scarce even for the winter. Some don't even have a grass hut to shelter from the wind and rain.

How will we spend this winter? Jerne Gollum didn't know. It's a cycle of bad names, and he doesn't want to fight pointless battles with Mongolia like this. The expansion of the territory actually has no significance for the current Liao State.

If the situation allows, Yelu Gollu would rather find a way to get the entire Liao Kingdom through this winter. But he has no choice, he can only transfer the current contradictions of the Liao State through one war after another, and use the victory to inspire the courage of the Liao people to persevere.

His hope now is that he will win more and that this winter will come later. Also, he has already sent someone to contact the Song Dynasty, hoping that when the Song Dynasty is not capable of attacking the grassland, he can relax a little and let himself breathe.

Although Brother Ning was very unhappy when he left, at least one news of victory could be sent back.

A fast horse came running behind him, and Jermane's brow furrowed, and he was afraid to receive news from the rear, none of which was good. It's not that there is a shortage of food, or that the minister or the general has gone to the Song Dynasty again.

Who's gone this time? Or is there no food in the back? Yelu Gollum is now relying on grabbing something from the Mongols to deal with the back, which is a little funny to say, the Great Song Dynasty fights, and it is the rear to support the front. And now not only can he not get support from the rear, but he finally grabbed something, but he also has to buckle it from the soldier's mouth and send it to the back.

The fast horse ran all the way to the front of Yelu Gollum, and the knight on the horse turned over and dismounted with a dashing movement: "Long live, Zhang Li is back!" ”

Yelune was shocked, Zhang Li is back? After hearing the news of the minister's departure, suddenly a person came back, and the real person Yelune was a little uncomfortable. What's more, it was Zhang Li who came back.

Why did he come back? Jerüne pondered for a moment, and he felt that it was time for him to go back. The nearby Mongols have also been driven far enough that they will not be back this winter.

Zhang Li is a person from Xiao Tatar, and now that Xiao Tatari has been controlled by himself, the reason why he didn't kill her was because Yelu Gollum now needed the stability of Shangjing, and he thought it would be too cheap to kill Xiao Tatari like this.

Zhang Li's return must have something to do with Xiao Tatar's affairs. This is an old minister, an old minister who can make waves in Shangjing, if he doesn't go back, it will not be good for him to stir up any storms.

Yelune Gollum doesn't want any twists and turns in Shangjing now!

"Has the messenger we sent to the Great Song returned?"

The fast horse shook his head: "Not yet." ”

Yelu Gurgling took a deep breath, it seems that the Song Dynasty does not intend to let himself take this breath, which is also something he expected, if he is Renzong or Chen Shimei, it is obvious that he will not give Liao a chance to breathe.

Yelune Gollum is a tough guy, since the other party doesn't let go, then he will stand up!

"Pass the order, let the troops disperse and garrison, collect the food in the hands of the local people, and this winter not only the army, but all the people, must also be rationed! Rations are prescribed per person per day! Distributed by the army. ”

The generals next to them were stunned, this system was only used once in the history of the Liao people, that is, when Zhao Guangyi's army approached Youzhou, Han Derang implemented such a strategy in order to hold on for a longer time.

At that time, it was really a last resort, saying that it was rationing for the people, but in fact, it was to collect all the food into the hands of the army to ensure that the army could get through, and as for the people, even if they were abandoned. Later, Han De asked himself to say that such a thing could not happen a second time.

Now that Yerune is going to use this method again, the generals are a little hesitant, has it really come to this point?

Before they could speak, Yelune's face turned cold: "This is an order!" ”

He is now the emperor of Liao, and his orders are naturally holy decrees, which those people dare not disobey.

"Yes."

A fresh breeze blew through the grassland, making Jerman feel the chill of autumn, and he knew that winter was not far off. Hopefully, I'll get through it.

"Class teacher, return to the court."

Hou Sha is now helping the leader Yelu Gollum deal with state affairs in Beijing, which is something Hou Sha did not expect. When Yelu Negol went on the expedition, everyone thought that he would let Yelu Hanba, or his cronies, help him watch Shangjing.

But Yelu Ne Gulu handed over this burden to Hou Sha, and he didn't even touch Hou Sun's granddaughter, that is, Yelu Hongji's legitimate queen.

This somewhat moved Hou Sun, and after holding the power, he was even more loyal to Yelu Gollum, and he did everything he could think of for Yelu Nie Gollum. When Zhang Li's footsteps had just stepped into Shangjing, Hou Sha immediately sent someone to take care of Zhang Li, and did not arrest him, but put him under house arrest and did not allow him to contact anyone.

Zhang Li asked to see Xiao Tali, but Hou Tan refused. Zhang Li said that when he and Xiao Tali met, he could not say anything, and Hou Sha could also watch from the side, but Hou Sha still did not agree. Until Yelune's return, Zhang Li had been under house arrest for seven days.

He wanted to know if Xiao Tatari was still alive, and he wanted to know if the people Chen Shimei promised to send to save Xiao Tatari had come, but the news outside was completely isolated, even if a few appeared in front of Zhang Li, Zhang Li didn't dare to ask.

Yelune Gollum didn't let Zhang Li wait for a long time, he wanted to know why Zhang Li came back this time. So when he returned to Shangjing, he didn't even go back to his palace, and came to see Zhang Li wearing armor.

"Master Zhang!" Yelune looked at Zhang Li, who was sitting on the stone bench with a chess book and studying, with a smile on the corner of his mouth that made it impossible to detect the intention above, and greeted him in a very peaceful tone.

Zhang Li put down the chess game and slowly got up: "Nine princes." ”

"You're still called Prince I? Do you know that I have become the emperor of Da Liao? ”

"I know, but the old minister also knows that the emperor is suffering in Bianjing now, and the prince doesn't want to save it, so he will replace it at this time, it seems a little too much, right?"

Jermane's eyes were cold, and the murderous intent was in full swing.
