Volume 3 Mending the Cracks in the Sky Chapter 142 (6)
Compared with the rainy and muddy in spring, since the beginning of summer, Hedong has been dry and rainless. In the land of Hebei, it is rainy in summer, and it is damp and cold. There is a drought in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are floods in Jiannan and other places. This first year of Jingkang seems to be destined to be a season of disorder in heaven and earth.
Black Tea Mountain is a remnant vein extending from the Luliang Mountains in the southwest of Lanzhou, and it suddenly rises up here again, and the mountain stretches endlessly. And the Black Tea Mountain is independent, high above the peaks, like a black and heavy giant tower.
The terrain here is fragmented, the mountain roads are divided, and the Weishui River Valley bypasses the north side of the Black Tea Mountain, which is a rare passage for the army.
After the Black Tea Mountain, it is Hehe County. Then cross the road of 100 miles of Hehe County, and it is Yifang, an important town in Lanzhou Prefecture.
This area was originally barren and poor, and there were not many people. After the ravages of the Jurchen Tartars coming and going, there were still a lot of villages in the river valley, all of which were deserted, and along the way, you could only see the white bones looking at each other, and the houses were burned to ruins, a ruined battlefield scene. And the Jurchen Tartars, who had ravaged this place, quickly shrank back after hitting the east bank of the Yellow River and could see Shaanxi across the river, and disappeared in this mountainous area. Only by bypassing the Black Tea Mountain can you see a series of military villages set up by the Jurchen Tartars.
In the land east of the river, there are many places where soldiers must fight, and the area of Black Tea Mountain will definitely not be in front. But during this period of time, this originally remote place was a gathering of Song troops, murderous, and the first army of Yan Yan and the Zhejia army marched eastward, as if they were preparing to do a decisive battle with the Jurchen Tartars here!
In the valley of the Ulshui River. At this moment, there is a large army passing. Because of the recent dry and rainy weather. River valley road. The dust and smoke rose loudly, and some people shouted and neighed. If someone stands on the top of the Black Tea Mountain, they can see thousands of cavalry troops, stretching out a long array, waving countless flying banners, pointing straight to the Jurchen military village in the east relying on the terrain!
This very large-scale cavalry army is composed of Yang Keshi's troops and Liu Anshi's cavalry. With a scale of four or five thousand cavalry, it is almost all the cavalry strength that the Yan Yan Army has. At this time, it was all taken out by Liu Guangshi. To open the road to Hehe County, after four or five thousand elite cavalry, tens of thousands of infantry troops followed. In the heart of Liu Guangshi, the commander of the Yan Army, he firmly believed that with such a military appearance, Zong Han would never dare to resist hard, and at most he would be able to resist in Hehe County. And when have you heard that Hu Lu is good at defending the city?
As long as he can take Hehe with vigorous and resolute momentum, then Zong Han's department will not dare to fight against him Liu Guangshi, so he can only turn his head and go desperately with Xiao Yan!
In the very wide valley of the Weishui River, the two cavalry armies marched almost side by side, but the queue was distinct.
Although Yang Keshi's department is a small species, it has provided great support. Rebuilt cavalry group. Both the personnel and the equipment are very neat.
But when they crossed the river, they didn't carry much baggage. All the way forward again. It's harder than any part of the Yan Army. These two or three thousand horsemen looked dressed in old clothes, and the soldiers and soldiers were all weathered. It doesn't look like a big army. When the army can be marched, these two or three thousand horsemen are neat and solemn, echoing back and forth, and every time they pass through a mountain pass, they meticulously spread out the sentry sentry, and they want to go straight out more than ten miles away. And it's not just on the horse, often dismount and climb the mountain to see the situation. During the march, it was extremely laborious.
On the other hand, Liu Anshi's riding is very different.
The Western Army is accustomed to using the tradition of Tibetan cavalry, when Di Wu Xiangping Nong Zhigao Rebellion, he brought thousands of Tibetan cavalry straight down to the land of Guangnan Smoke Miasma, and as the backbone of the main force throughout the Pingnan War. Figures such as the Iron Wall Xianggong even sat in the position of high-level generals in the Western Army as Hu people.
The Western Army has such a tradition, and the Yan Army will not be an exception. Originally, Yanyan Road was in the northeast of Zhulu in Shaanxi, and it was not as convenient as Xihe, Qinfeng and other armies to recruit Qingtang Hengshan and other troops, but since the power of Western Xia weakened, the left wing Shenyong Army Division existed in name only. After Liu Guangshi became the master of the Yan army, he even recruited Fan cavalry as an important means to restore the strength of the Yan army. In the Yan army, these cavalry began to increase in large numbers.
Among these cavalry, there are very few Qingtang tribes, mainly to hinder the southward divination and miscellaneous Hu, and even there are small clans that serve the party. Liu Guangshi was allowed to give preferential treatment, and even led directly by his own brother, thinking that he was the backbone of the army, and selected two or three thousand horsemen for a time. It is relied on for the selection of the backbone of the army.
However, if they are admitted to the Yanyan army, the salary will be more generous than that of the rest of the regular soldiers, and the rewards will be very frequent. All kinds of military equipment have also been selected and distributed. And the Liu brothers did not restrain them in terms of military discipline, and they also said in the name that they should not use the Han family system to restrain their natural bravery. Liu Guangshi's style of leading troops is roughly like this, in time and space without Xiao Yan, Liu Guangshi later claimed to be the head of the four generals of Zhongxing in the Southern Song Dynasty, but the discipline of the men and horses under his command was the worst. In the end, when Liu Guangshi went to the center of the imperial court to reorganize his army, he actually defected and surrendered to the Jurchen army at once, with more than 52,000 horses.
This Fan cavalry marched side by side with Yang Keshi's department, and the two or three thousand cavalry were densely packed, some were wearing Han brocade robes, some were wearing leather clothes, and few horses were honestly wearing armor. Along the way, the sentinels echoed and almost did not do it. On the way, most of them talked or laughed in nonsense. A lot of Fan riding with the water hyacinth is filled with wine, riding on the horse can not stop drinking, after the wine gourd is drunk dry, it is almost Xunran, to say that these Fan riding skills are indeed good, just turn the head to rest the saddle, legs on the back of the saddle on the bag of the snoring and sleeping, shake is not able to fall.
This kind of appearance made Yang Keshi's old man shake his head. Of course, Fan Riding has grown up since childhood and horseback, and he is skilled in riding. And there is a bit of ferocity that the Hu people are born with without civilization. However, it will take a lot of effort to train into an army. The really strong Hu military horse, and the one that is not military discipline?
The brothers of the Liu family also regarded this Fan cavalry as a treasure, and the two armies were still secretly monitoring their own families when they marched together, and those Fan generals were even more arrogant. Acting in this Liu Guangshi army is really so difficult every day!
After breaking into Liu Guangshi's Chinese army tent that night and returning, Yang Keshi doubled his silence. turned a blind eye to the Fan cavalry led by Liu Anshi to move forward together.
Seeing that after half a day's march, I turned the Black Tea Mountain, and the mountain in front of me calmed down. And more than ten miles away. The Jurchen military village can already be seen faintly. Yang Keshi immediately rushed to the front with his personal guards. The whole army was ordered to be on alert. With his own guards, he chose a mountain next to the road to ride his horse, and finally abandoned his horse and climbed straight to the heights to carefully observe the Jurchen army.
This series of military villages should be several villages in the river valley that are very close to each other, all on the side of the avenue. With such a close distance, maybe the people of the same clan live in separate branches.
These villages were brutally ravaged by the Jurchen Tartars, and then changed to a military village system with this purpose. The mountain villages originally had fences to prevent wild beasts and mountain bandits, and the Jurchen military horses made them taller and thicker. A watchtower was also set up. And dig deep trenches to cut off the road, even if it forms a defensive system.
Standing on a high place at this time, he could finally see the Jurchen military horse that suddenly disappeared a few days ago. Figures can be seen patrolling on the wall, and when they find that the dust and smoke are blowing in the distance, they blow the horn and whine in the river valley. Among the blackened and dilapidated houses in the military village, many people and horses poured out, caught up with the fence, and guarded the palace with bows. There are even figures who look like military generals who climb the watchtower and look to the west as much as possible.
Several military villages opened their gates, and more than 100 horsemen poured out immediately. There is no flag, just gathered in one place. Towards the east, it seems that at this time, the sentry was hurriedly released to investigate the military situation coming from the opposite side.
To talk about solidity, such a defense system is naturally not counted. When the road is down, it is necessary to have a continuous depth and control a strong force in order to hold on to the attacker. And without the advantage of the terrain, the attacking side can also come up with too many attack methods.
And these military villages are not very big, and at a rough glance, they add up to the appearance of more than 1,000 people. The defense system is thin and limited, and the force is limited, so it is really not strong.
After a few days of arduous marching, he cautiously sentry forward, and finally ran into the Jurchen military horse. What I saw was this fragile picture. Yang Keshi didn't feel happy, but his heart sank doubled.
If the Jurchen Western Route Army only had this level, how could it destroy the powerful Liao State? How could it be that when sweeping the crossings of the military villages on the east bank of the Yellow River on the opposite side of the Yanyan Road, if it was devastated, it would be rare for the defenders to hold out a little longer?
This trick to lure the enemy is too obvious!
The military horses that followed up under the mountain also heard the sound of the horn sounding in front.
Yang Keshi's troops were already ready, and some of them dismounted to form an arrow formation, and the cavalry also retreated to the flank and was ready to respond at any time.
The formation suddenly tightened, and the generals of all colors recognized their flags and stood still. Just waiting for the possible big battle.
There are even harder sentry riders who whistle to meet them, but they don't crash into them headlessly, but control their speed, walk a distance, stop and tidy up, and then move forward again.
However, Liu Anshi's cavalry was a little riotous, and the formation of two or three thousand cavalry not only did not quickly shrink tightly, but dispersed a little. This cavalry is a mixture of various departments, and it has not undergone strict training, and when it is about to fight, it is natural to be with familiar clansmen. Dozens of large and small strands were formed in the river valley, and all kinds of exclamations, shouts, and heralds rang out in one piece.
But these horsemen do have some bravery, no matter which group of men and horses, there are strong men rushing out, and they also do not play the flag, they greet them when they whistle, and in a blink of an eye, they surpass the cautious Yang Keshibu Sentinel Cavalry Hard Detective!
Yang Keshi was calming down and thinking about how to deal with the Jurchen defense system in front of him when he heard a greeting from under his feet. looked down, but saw Liu Anshi rushing up with a group of guards panting.
Compared with the elder brother general who was greedy for pleasure, Liu Anshi still had the spirit of a military general, and he came straight up in one breath wearing armor, and came to Yang Keshi's side with a big grin, first glanced at the distance, and smiled disdainfully: "I finally bumped into the Jurchen Tartar, but this look, it seems that I can fight?" The straight lady thief is like paper paste, and the birds will scatter when they hit! ”
Yang Keshi replied coldly: "When the Jurchen Tartar soldiers pressed the river, was it so unbearable? Who are you trying to seduce now? General Liu can't even see through this? ”
Liu Anshi glanced at Yang Keshi and laughed: "General Yang has always fought with the Western Thieves!" Tartars fighting, don't they all look like birds? Tens of thousands of soldiers were scattered, and they were bumping everywhere, and where the weakness opened the gap, they concentrated the army and rushed straight in. If you hit the hard stubble and turn around and leave, it won't do much good to die, and the Tartar never refuses to do it.
………… These bird girls are not ordinary Tartars? My brother has long found out. Zong Han's troops failed in the Jurchen struggle for power. Send it to the west to the grassland desert where birds don't. Poor as a ghost. This time I went south, I didn't just want to get a handful. Facing the east, the western army of Han Wu came out, and he was able to fight more or less. The Jurchen Tartars turned westward, and we were careless and rushed to the river. Now that tens of thousands of troops are crossing the river, the Jurchen Tartars will not turn around and run? It was the main force that turned to the east, leaving a few soldiers and horses behind. It is hoped that the concentrated army will open the passage to the east as soon as possible, so as to avoid the advance of our Yan army............ If General Yang is even afraid of this little Tartar, I will beat the bag of the thief with the soldiers and horses under my command! General Yang just wants to watch here! ”
After a hasty glance on the mountain, Liu Anshi understood the situation in front of him, and by the way, he mocked Yang Keshi for two sentences, arched his hand at will, turned around and went down the mountain, and loudly ordered the guards: "Gather all departments, I will only take the lead." Knock this army down for my brother! Chop off hundreds of Tartar heads and send them to your brother's tent, so that you can boast about your achievements! You must know that the Jurchen Tartars swept half of the east of the river. There must be a lot of looted property, and these goods are only for the sons and daughters to take for themselves! ”
Liu Anshi's personal guards responded to the sound like thunder, and swept down the mountain like the wind surrounded him. Each turned over and got on his horse, the sound of drums and trumpets was loud, and the horns used by the Fan cavalry and the sound of the swans of the Song cavalry were mixed together. Liu Anshi really took the lead, waved the iron spear, and led the guards to rush towards the east!
The large and small Yanyan army cavalry, which was divided into dozens of teams, heard the order, saw the flag, and saw that the lord would be like this. It was also a loud roar, and they hurriedly finished putting on their armor, rolling up the dust and smoke in the sky, and just poured up. For a time, there are really thousands of troops and horses, and there is no forward momentum!
Yang Keshi stood on a high place, watching the development of the battle situation in front of him. The men and horses under his command are still moving forward steadily, ready to take over Liu Anshi's subordinates at any time.
Seeing that Liu Anshi's brigade of Fan cavalry was swept up wrapped in dust and smoke, more than 100 Jurchen sentinel cavalry facing west found the great momentum of these Fan horses, hesitated to stop, and then heard the sound of the horn, and the more than 100 Jurchen military horses turned around and rolled back!
The military horses that simply marched bravely were best at fighting with the wind, and when they saw the Jurchen knights on the opposite side, they did not dare to retreat against the battle. The fighting spirit was even more high, and the army horses crashed straight into the Jurchen military village in front of them!
The more than 100 horsemen retreated and retreated straight back, looking like a wolf. And those military villages did not even dare to open the door to accommodate the return of more than 100 horsemen, and these more than 100 Jurchen horses bypassed the military village and retreated eastward. Liu Anshibu rushed straight in, and the road in front of him had been cut off by the Jurchen trenches, so these horsemen relaxed off the road and circled along the soft river valley on the edge of the water to attack the flank of the Jurchen Tartar army.
On the military wall, with the sound of the Jurchen general's order, arrows suddenly fell like rain. The cavalry department took out their riding shields one after another, and shrank behind the horses and rushed hard.
In the dust and smoke, there were constantly war horses neighing and falling to the ground, but the courage of these horsemen did not diminish, and they still advanced at high speed. When they were within twenty or thirty paces, they drew their bows and moved sideways in front of the fortress, shooting back and forth. And more of them jumped off their horses and marched down. Prepare to pull down the fence with the cover of bows and arrows, and rush in!
And Liu Anshi really kept rushing to the front, and at this time he also jumped off the horse, not to change the iron gun to a riding shield and a long knife, just in the middle of the team, leading the guards to crash into the fence!
Such an offensive is naturally sloppy and careless, purely relying on a momentary blood and qi impact. If the defenders were a little more resolute and relied on the fence to shoot more over, these thousands of horsemen would not be able to crash into it even if they risked their lives. Under the city of Yi County, the Jurchen East Road army has a large number of attack tools, and the elite cavalry cooperates, and it is so difficult to defeat the military fortress on the periphery of Yi County.
Seeing Liu Anshi's actions, Yang Keshi and the guards around him shook their heads. After a few rounds of arrows collapsed in this way, the military horses in the Jurchen Tatar village took advantage of the situation to rush out, and even the more than 100 Jurchen sentinels turned back, which could not be said to be a big defeat!
Then I have an opinion on the Liu family brothers, even if it is the Fan Cavalry Department that is fighting now, after all, they are all men and horses under the Song Army, and they can't watch them cut off so lightly, Yang Keshi has to turn his head and go down the mountain, urging the department to speed up the advance, and take Liu Anshi and them down no matter what!
Suddenly, one of the guards pointed into the distance: "General, this bird army is going to be defeated for them!" ”
Yang Keshi was shocked and raised his eyes. On the battlefield, groups of horsemen galloped back and forth. The feathered arrows thrown by the Liudou Riding Bow were like a storm. The momentum is staggering. In an instant, the fence on which the Jurchen Tartars relied grew a dense jungle of arrow shafts!
Don't look at the momentum is so amazing, the strength of the bow is so soft, but there is nothing that the military does not understand, the armor and the protection of the fence, the lethality is very limited.
However, after suffering a few rounds of arrow rain from the bow, I was afraid that there were not many Tartars who were really slandered, and the Jurchen Tartar military horses on the fence retreated one after another and let the fence out!
Liu Anshi took the lead in rushing forward. With the guards who sacrificed their lives to climb over the fence, he immediately seized a section of the place, and dozens of guards guarded him and held this section of the range. And in the Waifan cavalry is still the old way of attacking the village, throwing out a long rope to tie the stake, one end is connected to the horse, dozens of healthy horses were pumped to neigh, struggling to raise their hooves, in an instant, the old man was dragged down without interference!
The brigade of horsemen suddenly poured in. Everyone shouted and cheered, and their morale was doubled. And the Jurchen defenders of this military village have mounted their horses. Open the gate on the other side and flee to the east!
The more than 100 Jurchen sentinels who had bypassed the military village and fled to the east for a while, originally put on a look of rolling back at any time, but at this time they did not hesitate to turn around and continue to walk eastward, escaping faster than before!
Liu Guangshi danced and shouted loudly in this military village, like a madman: "Take down the other bird villages and thieves!" ”
The brigade of cavalry poured into this military village, but it lost its restraint for a while, for no other reason. In this military village, hundreds of births were found, including men and women, and a large amount of property looted by the Jurchen Tartars in Hedong during this period of time!
There are military generals on the side, and they are now considered to be the military horses of the Great Song Dynasty, and they will not do much to the Han family that is discovered. But when he saw a lot of belongings, he immediately made these horsemen red-eyed and began to let go and grab them!
A small military village, but there is a lot of grain and straw, and there are sheep and horse pens to store cattle and sheep. There were also dozens of lost horses in the stables. Among the ruined houses that served as dwellings for the Jurchen Tartars, in addition to the disheveled women and the men who held servitude, there were gold and silver utensils, copper coins of the Song people, and clothes and cloths of all colors. It was as if the Jurchen Tartars had opened a gold and silver shop and a grocery store here.
Countless people got off their horses and went in and out of all the houses, and you fought and grabbed me with each other. There are even many people who draw swords and threaten each other.
Those dozens of horses are also the focus of contention, and a good horse is more valuable than anything else for Fanhu. These dozens of horses are either grassland horses, or Liaodong horses, all of which are first-class goods. Or ride yourself, there will be one more life in the battle array, and you will sell it, and the price of more than 100 pure copper is also easy!
Around these dozens of healthy horses, it was really a knife!
Liu Anshi only jumped in the village: "The Tartars have wealth!" Go and open up the other military villages! There is still Hehe County in front, are you afraid that you will not be able to grow your hair? ”
Under his running and shouting, the cavalry, which had fallen behind in the plunder, roared out again and pounced on the other military villages. All of them have red eyes, and they are doubly willing to sacrifice their lives compared to before!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the valley road, the shouts of fighting finally subsided, and in its place, it was the cheers and shouts of the horsemen, which resounded throughout the four fields.
Surrounded by dozens of guards, Yang Keshi slowly walked into the military village, while Liu Anshi rode on a Liaodong military horse that had just been presented by his subordinate Fan Cai, and looked at the Western Army general with satisfaction.
In the military village, there is a chaotic shuttle of Tibetan horses, everyone is full of pockets, and their bodies are wrapped in brocade cloth. Although the wealth accumulated by a few small villages is rare and abundant, they have looted a lot after all. More thought more, and less looked east with red eyes, waiting for the general's order to continue the pursuit eastward, as if they had regarded the previously fierce Jurchen Tartar army as a flock of fat sheep.
The grain stored in the village was also taken out, and the best grain was used to feed the mounts, and it was sprinkled everywhere. The cattle in the sheep and horse pen were driven out, overturned with a knife, divided into dozens of pieces, and then a fire was made to roast, and a scorching smell only floated in the village.
And in the village, the Jurchen Tartars actually accumulated wine. Fan Qi, you fight for me, you just fight to pour it into your mouth. Everyone was shouting and screaming. The excitement is inexplicable.
In a corner of the military village, the rescued Han people. Both men and women were skinny and ragged, and the women who accounted for the majority of them showed their flesh in their tattered clothes, causing the fans who had drunk a little wine after a fight to have red eyes and looked straight to that side, as if they were about to move.
In this battle for the military fortress, the capture was very rich. However, the results of the battle were pitiful, only a dozen or so Jurchen Tartars who fell from arrows were cut off their heads, bloodily packed in the tools they found, and were ready to be sent to the Chinese army to report their merits. In the siege, the Fan cavalry was shot by several rounds of arrows and knocked over 100 people, and nearly half of them could not be saved.
Facing Liu Anshi's triumphant gaze, Yang Keshi wanted to say something, but in the end he held back, what could he say more at this time? Liu Guangshi's perseverance is difficult to shake. What kind of signs of luring the enemy will only be regarded by him as a Jurchen Tartar in front of him, and he will be afraid of his magnificent military appearance. It's just to avoid war.
Now Yang Keshi only hopes that the Jurchen Tartars will lure the enemy deeper, and it is best to let Hehe County rule out!
Once this city is in hand, tens of thousands of Yan Yanjun troops can be relied on. Even if the Yan Yan army fails to fight in the field, it is another matter to rely on the city to fight.
The Jurchen Tartars may spread their wings wide open, hiding in the rolling mountains, waiting for the Yanyan army to penetrate deeply, and then kill them from the divergent mountain road, cut the Yanyan army into several sections, and then break them individually. However, if you can snatch the Hehe County Governance in your hands and do your best to transport enough troops into the city, even if the Jurchen military horses attack from both wings, with the support, they can at least hold out for a while, and they will not collapse in a short time.
And the prince of the small race will never watch the Western Army being surrounded and eaten by the Jurchen Tartars like this, and when the time comes, he will inevitably urge the army to cross the river and march in, and come to help in an endless stream!
Yang Keshi had a plan in his heart, and as if he hadn't seen Liu Anshi's showing off, he stepped forward and arched his hand: "Congratulations to General Liu!" Since the flag is victorious, we must strike while the iron is hot, please be the front, rush to Hehe County, and strive to go down this city with a drum! ”
Liu Anshi laughed: "General Yang is finally eager!" My brother and I are waiting for this moment! According to what General Yang said, after leaving one of each to rely on the Tartar army village to settle down, he will join forces with General Yang and go to rob the county seat of Niaohehe! Tell General Yang clearly, you are worried that the Jurchen Tartars will lure us deeper, how can my brother not take care of it? Only when we are the forwards who seize Hehe County as a support, will my brother urge the brigade to continue to go deeper! If Hehe County is not down, my brother will naturally not be so village, and he will continue to hit him headlong. When we attack this city, we know whether the Jurchen Tartars are really the main force turning east, or they are luring us deeper! ”
As soon as these words came out, Yang Keshi breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Liu Guangshi has all kinds of unbearable things, he is still worthy of his background, and he is still a little vigilant in danger, and he is not completely dizzy!
Since Liu Guangshi still has a bit of discipline, as a general, Yang Keshi originally relied on fighting to eat, so why should I be afraid to fight for him for a while? It's just for the Western Army!
Yang Keshi nodded, and his voice was also high: "Since this is the case, without further ado, we will choose the elite and attack Hehe County directly!" Let's see what kind of calculation the Jurchen Tartars have! ”
Liu Anshi was also refreshed, and with a nod, he asked the guards to summon the order. Yang Keshi stopped him, and Liu Anshi said impatiently: "What is the matter with General Yang?" ”
Yang Keshi pointed to the rescued people: "These people have to be handed over to the military horses left by me to take care of them, so as to save them from giving birth to anything, but they are not beautiful." It is not easy for these people to struggle for their lives, but don't waste it in vain. ”
Liu Anshi's face sank in an instant, and this Yang Keshi clearly accused him of the poor discipline of the Fan cavalry under his command. But in a blink of his face, Liu Anshi laughed out loud again.
Now there is still a place to use this old revolution, and when my brother decides the overall situation in the future, he will welcome back the two saints, and then see how to concoct you! Or you don't even have to wait until that time, wait for the soldiers to enter the Hehe River, and watch the Jurchen and Xiao thieves desperately, maybe they will find a loophole and end up with you and this cavalry. When I sent Bai Zhu soldiers, can I afford to cheap our Liu family now?
"I still think that there is something important, General Yang has been in battle for so many years, and he has seen many dead people, and he is so soft-hearted. You are. A group of literate men, nothing matters, let's hurry up and send troops! ”
Yang Keshi didn't say anything, but just ordered the guards to settle down these people and find some food for them.
The Western Army can have today, isn't it because thousands of sons and daughters have sacrificed their lives to fight for decades, sheltering the people of Shaanxi Sixth Road? Therefore, the people of Shaanxi followed their families, but when the war came, the men built cities and dug trenches in the rain of arrows on the front line, and the women transferred food and wages in the back.
This is the root of the development of the Western Army to the point where it is today! Such a legacy is still alive today. The loss of Yandi in the south of the Yangtze River in the Long March will be half, and he will return to Shaanxi, with an order, how many Kansai Erlang will still be recruited into the army!
In the time and space without Xiao Yan, the Western Army was repeatedly wiped out in the bloody battles with the Jurchens. But he can always pull up the Kansai children again and gather into an army. This is where the most precious remnant of the Western Army has defended the Six Roads for decades!
But now, fewer and fewer people seem to remember the roots of this Western Army. Even the prince of the small race, when he is at war with foreign enemies, is still hesitant and wandering, which makes people just anxious for him............
Flags are flying, trumpets are sounding, and the sound of golden drums is loud. Liu Anshibu and Yang Keshibu have already selected more than 2,000 selectors in a short time, everyone has two horses, and the rest of the sergeants dismount and defend by stepping down the village. More than 2,000 candidates, under the leadership of Yang Keshi and Liu Anshi, went straight to Hehe County!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The night was already deep, and Liu Guangshi's large army camp had not moved on this day. The army relied on this, which was a rare rest. The morale of the army has also been boosted a little.
Liu Guangshi still held banquets in the army and held high banquets.
When he was drunk, a flag officer hurriedly entered and whispered something in Liu Guangshi's ear.
Everyone's eyes were focused, but Liu Guangshi still looked calm, waved his hand and sent the flag away, drank another glass, and then opened his mouth lightly.
"A certain brother has already won the governance of Hehe County, and the Jurchen army and horses have been defeated and retreated to Yifang."
There was silence in the tent, thinking that they had heard evil ears.
Liu Guangshi couldn't hold back Xie An's demeanor anymore and laughed loudly.
"Relying on this city, the whole army of Yan Yan has a deep-rooted and unshakable momentum, and you can sit back and watch the success or failure of the battle between the Jurchens and the Xiao thief! Ladies and gentlemen, drink another full drink! (To be continued......)
