Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Hero of the World (4)

The raindrops poured down again. Starlight in the sky. The mixed men and horses of the Liuwei Qiannan Prisoner Changsheng Army and the Jurchen Army, which were covered by dark clouds, no longer hid their traces, but only launched a brigade outside the valley road leading to Gubeikou. The camp had been erected, simple but well-organized, and the torches were blazing around the camp, and the flames were long and short, just swaying in the wind.

The heavy rain has washed away the heaven and earth, and standing on the hill next to the Gubeikou Pass, you can see the campfires clearly. The flashes of each of these *** points seem to be ominous.

Dong Dalang's forward sentinel actually took it back like this, suffered such a big loss in an encounter, and lost a commanding job. He didn't go straight to the pass in anger and retaliate by attacking and beating hard. Feel at ease, as if you are making a long-term plan.

But everybody knows. These thousands of iron horsemen roaring south will never give up like this, maybe wait until dawn. A tragic battle will unfold ferociously around the mountains where the Great Wall winds and circles!

Only, "The shoes are going to raise their strength this time, it seems that Dong Dalang is the department, without him, the head snake, the Jurchen shoes may not have the plan to go south to take advantage." Zong Han I have seen it, and the Jurchen people are also Jie. is also the most ambitious, treats people and things, and is the simple and bold of the Jurchens on the face, but in fact, he only believes in strength first. I also have insight, and I actually know the grievances and grievances between our Great Song Dynasty and the Liao State, and I know that our Great Song Dynasty has been at a disadvantage for the Liao State for more than 100 years. Akuta old chieftain there. He also said that since the Liao State is about to be leveled, there is no need to be polite to the Great Song Dynasty, and it seems that it has not been sold. Now that he is leading an army alone, with Dong Dalang, he is cheap, of course he wants to go south to test it, in case he rushes through here and appears on the land of Youyan, and then there are remnants of the Liao people who defect, causing momentum, and the overall situation is unimaginable."

The mountain wind was cold, tearing Ma Kuo's muttering to pieces. In the entire Great Song Dynasty, no one can match the understanding of Jurchen, maybe now a Xiao Yan has appeared out of thin air, with the advantage of a traverser, he has more knowledge than him in the history books. But in terms of his deep perceptual understanding of the Jurchens, Xiao Yan is still far inferior to Ma Kuo!

On the top of the mountain, there were two figures behind Ma Kuan, one was Yue Fei and the other was Fang Teng. Neither of them could interject at this time, and they both listened intently to Ma Kuo's self-talk.

Captured by Yue Fei. He is a commander of Dong Dalang's forward, known for his bravery, but in Yue Fei's hands, he doesn't even have the strength to fight back. Such people who follow Dong Dalang north and go outside the customs and never abandon them are naturally loyal to Dong Dalang's henchmen. But I don't know if it's a hero like Yue Fei who shocked him too much with his courage and conceit. It may also be because there is really no anti-interrogation practice in this era, or there is some Geneva treaty that governs the behavior of both sides against the captives.

As soon as this commander was captured, after a little interrogation, he revealed what he knew about the cavalry of this brigade that suddenly went south. This guy was also treated preferentially, and he was tied up and thrown in a beacon tower, and he had a lot of water and water.

The attacking enemy was indeed Dong Dalang as the main force, mixed with hundreds of Jurchen godsons, and there was a huge force of three or four thousand horsemen! The Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty, the cavalry pieced together for Xiao Yan is only this number. If it weren't for the capture of a large number of war horses in Zhuoyi Erzhou and the reorganization of the Changsheng Army, the Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty would not have been able to come up with a complete cavalry group of this number. (Later, in the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty, several famous generals of the Southern Song Dynasty, although they formed a quite powerful cavalry group, especially under Yue Fei, could be called ten thousand cavalry.) But it was captured in repeated battles with Kim. In addition, a large number of people from the north were incorporated into the rebel army and gradually established. With the signing of the alliance between the Southern Song Dynasty and the Jin, there were few battles, and this short-lived cavalry group soon disappeared.

If these cavalry groups of thousands of people break through the pass and appear on the land of Youyan, how much uncertainty will it bring to the final battle of Song Liao, you don't have to think about it, you can guess!

Moreover, with Dong Dalang as the mainstay, supplemented by a small number of real Jurchens, Zong Han's mind is also very clear. It's here to explore the limelight, take advantage of it if it's cheap, and leave if it's not cheap. If the breakthrough is easy, they will get enough cheap again. Then the so-called covenant between the Great Song and the Jurchens, which is already very fragile, is not much stronger than a piece of waste paper. The Jurchen army, which is on the rise and is unstoppable, may come in a steady stream and continue to move south until the wind and clouds change color!

This Northern Expedition is to recover Yanyun and stabilize the northern frontier, not to make this northern frontier another more chaotic and terrifying battlefield!

Not to mention that there are remnants of the Liao State in various places who take advantage of the situation to defect to the Jurchens. Let the whole battle turn around

Ma Kuangyue flew and fell. Now that you're here, there's no choice. You can only fight until the last breath. Let the Jurchens know that the Great Song Dynasty cannot be insulted, and let the Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty still have time for Xiao Yan to deal with the sudden appearance of wild waves!

However, even if everyone fights to the death, how long can they resist? And the time they exchanged for their lives was the ministers of the Great Song Dynasty who were gathering in the Gaoliang River, and the famous ministers and fierce generals. and the Xiao Yan who led the second Western Army to the north. And how will they deal with it?

Yanjing is really a too tempting target, and everyone's eyes are focused on this peerless feat. And in Gubeikou, he fought with the Jurchens and repelled them desperately, and those who were far away from Yanjing were too hard to sacrifice and gained nothing. The ministers of the Western Army, who have already marched hundreds of miles north, want to use Yanjing to stabilize their future position in the Great Song Dynasty, and the court and the central government want to use the great merits of Fuyan to fight openly and secretly, will they be worthy of the sacrifices they are about to pay in Gubeikou?

These words are hidden in Ma Kuo's heart. Fang Teng, who also deeply understood the inside story of the front line, only smiled faintly. Only Yue Fei had a young face, just quietly looking at the scattered campfire in the distance opposite.

Ma Kuo sighed lowly, raised his horsewhip and pointed to the opposite scene to draw a circle, and said in a low voice: "Don't talk about this!" All we can do is fight to the death. Now that the news has been passed back, we have a clear conscience! Baigou was defeated that day, but Xiao Xuanzan led us to counterattack, and I Ma Kuan pretended to be a hero, and killed him alive in front of Xiao Xuanzan! Until today, I feel that I have no negative life! At this time, the others don't need to think about it, think about fighting such a battle

Yue Fei was still looking at the camp fire on the other side, although he was young, Ma Kuofang Teng already knew his character to some extent. It's simply a natural calm general. What is the matter, regardless of the maturity, will never be lightly exported. is completely different from Xiao Yan's somewhat high-flying temperament, and I don't know how he was appreciated by Xiao Yan until he became Xiao Yan's most confidant general.

Fang Teng smiled lightly and pointed to the surrounding mountains hidden in the darkness: "The terrain is really not qualified to lead a horse to Ma Xuanzan Yue Duyu Marquis, but at this time, he can say a few words." In this battle, both sides of the enemy and us are encountered. We were a little prepared, and the shoes were a little unexpected, but they were unhindered, and they said that they could go, but we had to cover the pass, and we couldn't retreat at all. The time is right and people, even if this is even, no one will take advantage of anyone"

The key to this battle is the location! Gubeikou is between Yanshan! It is impossible to control the access roads in the mountains, ride thousands of shoes, and lead the horses over the mountains and sneak over. Even if it's a light ride. It is also necessary to carry "arrows, tents, horse materials, equipment, what not to carry?" It is necessary to open up this Gubeikou pass road in order to let the army pass guò! They had to take a detour to sneak in through other passes. One is that it is far away from Yanjing, and the other is that time cannot be delayed, and I wish they would take a detour! Kill along the valley road. It is even more impossible to attack the pass with light cavalry, whether it is Dong Dalang or the Jurchen generals, they will not do this stupid act of hurting the public. Most likely, it is still to sneak through with an elite one, without being stunned, and oppress us back. Cut us off from the back

This Bianliang Zi Fang Teng. He looked haggard, and according to his experience, most of them would not have military experience. But when it comes to the topography of the mountains and rivers and military strategies, his eyes are shining, and he no longer looks like the wolf who follows the sentry on horseback. When Ma Kuo and Yue Fei sent a herald to the rear to inform the Jurchens of their southward journey, Ma Kuo persuaded Fang Teng to leave, but he refused with a smile. One can't help but admire the courage of this Bianliangzi.

But it also makes people wonder a little about this. Why did the civil officials with a bright future have to mix with these Qiu Ba who were already preparing to die here, why did he suffer this hardship and take such a risk?

At this time, every word he said seemed to be said at the key point about the upcoming war that lingered in Ma Kuoyue Fei's heart. Even Yue Fei, who had been silent, looked up at Fang Teng, his eyes sparkling.

Fang Teng's smile was still so relaxed, but every word that came out was extremely heavy.

We're not just trying to stop the Jurchen brigade. We must also let the army of the Gaoliang River know that we have always been in the way of Gubeikou! If you sneak over and ride over, you will cut off our way to the newspaper and cut off our news. Opening up more momentum will only make the Gaoliang River camp lose its correct judgment, thinking that the Jurchen Iron Cavalry has entered the Kou in a big way! When the time comes, will there be a big chaos, it is really an unpredictable thing, we should be in Gubeikou, even if we fight to the end, we will lose it

What's more, the news of the Jurchen's entry into the Kou spread, what will Youyan, the remnants of the Liao people who are waiting and seeing, do? For example, Danzhou behind us, now the Song and Liao are not helping each other, so we can easily enter the Gubeikou. These Liao people are terrified of the Jurchens. Once hundreds of riding Jurchens appear behind us, Danzhou may surrender to the Jurchens! There is a basis for this. plus Tong Dalang, a ghost in the ground who knows Youyan's inner story. I'm afraid that my Great Song Gaoliang River battalion will send people and horses to the north, and it will be difficult to clean up the situation! If Dong Dalang stabilizes his foothold in the land of Youyan, it will be the basis for the Jurchen invasion of the south on a different day."

Ma Kuo was silent. With 200 horsemen to defend Gubeikou, it is already extremely thin. If you take on the heavy responsibility of not letting Dong Dalang and the Jurchen light cavalry sneak over this Guanshan again, can you do it, and how much sacrifice will you pay? But Fang Teng's every word was secretly in line with his judgment, the situation was indeed so bad" Needless to say, Dong Dalang is known as a masterpiece. Running around, there are wolves. Zonghan's famous generals, the ones sent to command the Jurchens are by no means weak, and they can't be expected to attack the pass stupidly.

Ma Kuo was silent, but Yue Fei's eyes were shining, just looking at Fang Teng, whose expression was gradually becoming solemn, and asked loudly, "Senator Fang, what should we do?" ”

Fang Teng waved his hand: "I'm going to borrow two generals and these two hundred sharp soldiers!" Give me dozens of rides, and I will make sure that Gubeikou is only in the hands of my Great Song! I don't know about the two generals. Can you lead the elite and fight with the elite of the godson who are trying to sneak over, and fight in this mountain to prevent them from stepping foot in the land of Youyan? ”

Ma Kuo raised his head and looked at Yue Fei, and Yue Fei also looked at him. Ma Kuo smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It's hard work."

Yue Fei was infinitely radiant, his posture immediately straightened, and he laughed loudly: "I am familiar with the surrounding mountains and rivers, and within seven days, I will risk my life, and I will also take Lezi as a stop!" ”

Fang Teng keenly captured Yue Fei's words, it was already an unprecedented feat to fight in the mountains for seven days with the Lezi army that far surpassed their troops. Even if he is as confident as Yue Fei, he is the fullest to speak, and that's it.

And after seven days? Did Yue Fei think that within seven days, reinforcements would definitely arrive. And his benefactor, Xiao Yan, will lead a large army to come?

Perhaps they fought desperately, and did not hesitate to use their own flesh and blood to fill the gap in the majestic Great Wall for thousands of years.

The time won is just a foreshadowing for Xiao Yan to achieve his fame!

And if you stay here, don't you just want to see how the heroes of the world who are gradually emerging in this turbulent and humble world will behave?

"Seven days and seven days!" Ma Kuo read a sentence and couldn't help but glance south. It seems that he wants to find the Xiao Yan banner that is flying on the south bank of the Gaoliang River hundreds of miles away.

He laughed violently: "Anyway, we have no regrets, what else do we do!" Let's buy Xiao Xuanzan these seven days to see how he will act! Let's go, let's get ready to fight in the coming day! "My lord, I went to the Jurchen kingdom that day, that is, I went out of the customs through Gubeikou, and the terrain in the mountains here was carefully paid attention to at that time. This time, they did not expect that the Song people would move so fast and actually point out an army. Blocked. “! Thousands of light horsemen crossed the valley road and hit the pass. One is that we have not attacked the flail, and one or two is that the terrain is so terried that the troops cannot be unfolded. This is an act to hurt the public, although I am not sensitive, but I also do not want to

It.

"The Song people are good at guarding, so let him guard it!" There are several trails in the mountains, which can be crossed by teams of more than 100 riders. As long as the flag crosses Yanshan, I will be a big product. Make sure that this is close to places such as Danzhou and so on. Surely the wind will return! The remnants of the Liao people, who doesn't know the prestige of the country? The Song defenders were just trapped in Gubeikou. When you can receive the foot soldiers, Gubeikou can go down day and night! And it can cut off the way of the Song people's defenders' literary reports, shake the Song people's follow-up army, and make them dare not go north to help

"Once there are several bases such as Danzhou, we can sit and watch the success or failure between Song and Liao." Retreat can be in response to Commander Zonghan's large-scale southward move, and advance can change the situation of the Yandi war in one fell swoop, and it is unknown to enter Yanjing! ”

Dong Dalang stood respectfully in front of Yin Keshu and talked eloquently. Count yourself in your chest and go out one by one.

The analysis is extremely clear.

The camp set up by the Jurchen people and horses is clear from Dong Dalang. The Jurchens were reluctant to deal with Dong Dalang's subordinates. Dong Dalang's men and horses did not dare to provoke them. Even the Jurchen people didn't want them to do it for them. It's just your own responsibility. The two sides clearly said that they were a joint army, but they couldn't get together.

Dong Dalang came to Yinkeshu's camp tent and was also very careful. On weekdays, a commander like him who leads an army alone, regardless of his deeds. There are always dozens of guards around him, but when he came here to do military discussions, Dong Dalang was just alone. Even the sword on his waist was removed, saving the Jurchen soldiers and horses from trouble.

In the small camp tent, several Jurchen Mouke and Pu Liyan sat or stood, listening to Dong Dalang's military situation disapplauded. Even Ali Xi dared to look at Dong Dalang's respectful appearance outside the tent door. From time to time, he turned around and his colleagues and softly mocked both with Jurchen words

Facing the contemptuous gaze of the tent, Dong Dalang's face did not change, and his tall figure was almost bent to ninety degrees. It's just that the atmosphere didn't dare to breathe, waiting for Yin Keshu to answer.

Yin Keshu sat on a leather stool, supported his chin with one hand, and pointed at his beard with the other, just listening to Dong Dalang say his judgment with interest. A few of them couldn't sit still, but they were all stopped by him with his eyes.

Wait for Dong Dalang to finish. Only then did he scratch his neck and laugh: "You have three thousand soldiers, and I only have four hundred." It's not Da Lang, you have the final say! Dragged so many carts and horses, walked such an old and long valley road, and went to fight this pass, it is true that you can't do such a stupid thing" to fight with your life and stones, that is not called war! I've been squatting at this pass for a long time, that's what the Song people want, we don't want it, Zong Han said, this time it's just to go back quickly, find a piece of land for your Dalang, and let's go south in the future."

He stood up, stretched his figure, and said with a smile: "As for whether to take Yanjing or not, let's see when the time comes, what Zong Han means this time is to see the reality of the Song people" If the Song people are really unbearable to such a point, they will take it. Can't you pay them back? But looking at them, they can actually think of going north for a few hundred miles first, stuck in this key pass, and the Song people don't seem to be incapable of going anywhere

Draw elite sneakers. I think it's a good idea. Go around and scare the Liao dogs here, and then see how the Song people should deal with it. Isn't this reality all at once? If Gubeikou is taken, the defender general Da Lang, you will catch it and show me, the lone army will go north and fight far away, and it can be regarded as a man! Anyway, Zong Han has an explanation, this time to go south, it is Da Lang who is in charge. It is to transfer our Jurchen sons, Dalang, you can just open your mouth! ”

Yin Keshu said easily, but a few people in the tent had anger on their faces. Jurchen sons and daughters dispatch such descendants, what kind of truth is this? Dong Dalang was already flustered, and his waist was bent doubly. Shaking his hand: "How dare you dispatch the Jurchen son!" But please watch the battle, I will select the elite, take Danzhou within three days, and then turn back to sweep the Gubeikou, and capture the Song generals and send them to the adults! ”

Yin Keshu smiled slightly. waved his hand and said: "In this case, please arrange it earlier, I am waiting for the good news of Da Lang" Zong Han is in Bei'anzhou, why not wait for Da Lang's good news? Just do it, and I'll do your best!" ”

Dong Dalang got it. He didn't dare to turn around, and exited the big tent straight back. A few Ali hi crossed their arms in front of him. Dong Dalang only nodded slightly, didn't dare to fight for the road, made a detour to get out of the way, strode away and disappeared into the darkness.

In the tent, a Mou Ke sneered: "I heard that I also shot a horse and a gun in Liaodong that day, but he was so soft-boned?" Yin Keshu, can you expect him to not? It's better to let our Jurchen sons and daughters! I heard that the Song people are even weaker than the Liao people, let Dong Dalang lead the way, we four hundred women are really good men, and it is not easy to make this area whether it is a Liao dog or a Song person. All swept away? How long will you have to wait for him in this mud? ”

Yin Keshu smiled: "Don't underestimate this surnamed Dong, he can fight!" After some disposal, I came to lead the troops and that's it, the emperor's order to Zong Han was to capture Yelu Yanxi, with this, Dong Dalang We went south to take a turn, but also to see the reality of the Song people. Let's go into battle first, and let Emperor Agu know that the leather whip is to be received by Zong Han and me! Let's take a look first, see if the Song people are as unbearable as Dong Dalang said, if the Song people are really so weak

At this point, an arrogant look appeared on Yin Keshu's face, and his tone was like iron: Then the flower world in the south, why can't it be the ranch of my Jurchen Iron Horse, why can't it be the palace of my Jurchen son? If the Song people were not so weak and could actually block Dong Dalang, at that time, let us Jurchen Erlang show his skills again It is said that this time he and Liaogou competed for Yanjing. The Song people have already taken out their best generals and the most elite sergeants, and when the time comes, our Jurchen sons will come to sweep them down again! Since I'm here, I want to let the Song people know that it's powerful. In the future, when our army goes south, only the part of the wind and surrender "Let the Song people know that at this time, only our Jurchen sons are the heroes of the world!" ”

sorghum

The camp of the Liao army stretched out for dozens of miles.

Diao fought strictly, just as the Liao army was really before the Song army in Xiongzhou that day.

The army is still this army. But everyone can feel that the morale of the military is completely different.

On that day, they lined up between Xiongzhou to watch the army, and showed off their might before the two divisions of the Song army, Yang Keshi, and Wang Yu, which seemed to be the last glory of the Great Liao Empire.

First of all, Xiao Gan, the king of the Fourth Army, and Dashi Linya, the last mainstay of the Great Liao Empire, withdrew from the Xiongzhou front line for the sake of power struggle. It was easy to clean up Guo Yaoshi's Changsheng army, which was preparing to rebel in Zhuoyi Erzhou, but it was only a few hundred people led by Xiao Yan, a little-known Song man, who frightened tens of thousands of troops to withdraw to Yanjing! The land south of Yanjing was completely lost to the Song people. The Song people even boosted their morale. Killed all the way to Sorghum Henan!

In Yanjing City, King Xiao Gan and Da Shi Linya tore their faces even more. Although there was no bloodshed, Dashi Linya, whose prestige in the Liao State was in full swing, became a prisoner of King Xiao Gan. Although when the army set off, Da Shi Linya also came to boost morale, but this time when he borrowed one from the city to do the final battle. It is no longer possible to see the banner of the Great Stone Forest Tooth fluttering in the army.

The Song army rode lightly to show off its might in Gaoliang Henan, but King Xiao Gan restrained his subordinates from far away, only guarding Henan, and not crossing the sorghum Hebei to provoke the Song people. As soon as this order was given, the morale of the army plummeted.

In the Khitan army, there are already rumors that King Xiao Gan has no intention of fighting to the death in Yanjing City. Instead, he was ready to take the Xi people's subordinates, let the city go, and set up another Xi empire. If this is the case, everyone might as well return to Yanjing City and protect the big stone forest to clean up the situation.

And the Xi people themselves were also panicked, although they were loyal to Xiao Gan. But the Xi people and the Khitan have been the same for more than 100 years. These children of the Xi people have lived in Yanjing for generations. Even if another Xi country is established, what about Yanjing's family property? Not to mention the loss of Yanjing's roots, how long can this flag of Xi Kingdom fly in the last days?

There was a lot of talk in the army. Everyone was depressed. If it weren't for Xiao Gan's prestige and not being as low as Yelu Dashi, maybe he would have disintegrated up and down. With the beginning of the previous two days, the Song army brigade arrived in Gaoliang Henan one after another and began to camp. Jun Rong Xuanhe, everyone is even more panicked, everyone is watching Xiao Gan's behavior, how will Xiao Gan deal with this situation when he arrives?

But Xiao Gan just acted as if nothing happened. Just sit in your own camp. did not come up with a new arrangement, let alone send troops to cross the river to the south to test the Song army. Let them not be able to set up camp lightly.

At this moment, Xiao Gan was on the watchtower of his camp, hugging the fox Qiu, quietly looking at the *** of the Song military camp opposite. The fox's fur was already wet with night dew, and no one knew how long he had been standing here.

Above the watchtower, there was silence, only the guards behind him, the dew condensed on the iron helmet slid down, and the coldness on the saber was faint

In Gaoliang Henan, the camp of the Song army has taken shape, revealing most of the Song army's military appearance. The length of the river stretches and the depth of the south-facing stretch, and it is extremely wide-looking. It's hard to see the end. The campfires in the Song army are even more dotted, as if with the continuous rainstorm these days, the Milky Way in the sky has also poured down. It also seems to have landed on the south bank of the Gaoliang River.

In this kind of military situation, Rao is a hero, but he must also be short of breath.

But Xiao Gan just looked at Ren Che in front of him quietly, the complexion on his face did not change at all, and there was even a little satisfied smile.

Not far from the watchtower, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded, and then I heard a low voice of commands, and then more than a dozen people turned over and dismounted, and their footsteps fell to the ground heavily, and they came straight to the watchtower.

The guards on the watchtower had already probed out and asked, "Who is making a noise?" ”

A few voices sounded downstairs, and all they shouted in confusion: "We want to see the king!" ”

As soon as he heard the voice, this guard knew that it was some of Xiao Gan's most trusted generals, no wonder he could go straight into Xiao Gan's camp. The guard glanced at Xiao Gan. He probed out again: "The king watches the Song camp at night, don't be disturbed!" Stand down! ”

Xiao Gan's body finally moved, looked back and smiled: "You bunch of rabbit cubs, you will be noisy and yelling!" Come up! ”

The sound of footsteps around the spiral wooden ladder of the Wangjian building made a loud bang, and there were not too many people standing on it, and these Xi generals pushed three or two representatives to climb up, looking at Xiao Gan's slender figure standing there, and saluted: "King."

Xiao Gan didn't look back. Laughing: "What's the matter?" Don't have enough food to eat? Or are you fighting with the boys surnamed Jelu again? ”

A mock general was quick to collar, and he rushed out: "If you can fight with the guys surnamed Yelu, it will be refreshing!" These guys. Now looking at us, the eyes are neither yin nor yang, and they don't talk to us when they bump into each other! There are also rumors that these guys are going to turn around and return to the division and save Dashi Linya from Yanjing City! ”

Someone starts, and the rest of the people are easy to talk.

"King, the Song army on the other side has been humiliated, what will we do next?"

"Wherever the king spoke. We are following, such immortal and non-alive, but it is to consume the morale of the army, and the sons and daughters will not be able to move when the time comes, and the last general will not dare to take this responsibility! ”

"The king, whether you are fighting or leaving, we are all the king's cronies, so we naturally follow to the end, but I ask the king to make it clear!"

Xiao Gan turned his head, looking a little confused, and said in surprise: "Go, where to go."

Everyone looked at Xiao Gan. Can't say a word. Could it be that Xiao Gan is squatting in Gaoliang Hebei like this, eating not much grain. Don't dare to cross the river and provoke the Song people in half a step, is it the idea of fighting to the death here?

Xiao didn't laugh. Wave your hand to your guards. The two guards immediately knocked down the watchtower, whispered an order, and the guards who were guarding under the watchtower scattered outward, and there was no one in the watchtower.

Xiao Gan smiled and looked at his confidants: "Do you think that I Xiao Gan has no fighting heart?" ”

Without waiting for those henchmen to answer, Xiao Gan had already pointed to the south and laughed: "I'm just afraid that those Song people also think that I have no heart to fight."

The smile on Xiao Gan's face gradually became colder, and the meaning of his words was colder than the night dew on his body: "I don't dare to fight with the Song people." Surrender Yanjing, even if I really take everyone to erect the flag of Xi elsewhere, how long can I survive in this troubled era? The Song army is a big hole in the mouth of the four (concave 3 mouths are less in the factory, and the salary is from ", the spy is more, and the 40,000 children are left in Liao, and there are 40,000 children behind the Yanjing Gu Chengzuo. Could it be that someone is afraid of Si Di Xiao? Joke! The man's husband was born in troubled times, and he was afraid that this scene was not big enough, not enough to be more chaotic!

To survive in these troubled times. Only by relying on strength, relying on war to win, attack must be overcome! If we don't defeat the Song people, wherever we go, it's just a dead end! Only by defeating them, with this lonely city of Yanjing, even if the banner of Xi is really raised, my Xiao family wants it to be as majestic as it was in the heyday of Daliao."

It doesn't matter if Xiao Gan's words sound too unrealistic. The situation is declining like this, and it is necessary to restore all the glory of the Great Liao Empire between the two great enemies of the Great Song Dynasty and the Jurchens. However, these children of Xi Ren, who have been depressed for a long time, are all in good spirits when they see Xiao Gan's majesty and heroism.

King Xiao really has no morale, as long as this waist is still stunned and straight, this general trend may still be promising!

However, how did this King Xiao's confidence come from? The overwhelming Song army in front of them, how can they defeat them?

Xiao Gan smiled and beckoned to a few henchmen. Xi sat down on the watchtower: "It's time to greet you first, if my expectations are good, this opportunity for a big change should be in the next few days,"

The general who spoke first was straighter. couldn't help but preemptively ask again: "King, what is the opportunity for a big change?" ”

Xiao Gan raised his hand, compared from south to north, and pointed in the direction of Gubeikou: "These days, you haven't noticed that a Song army has arrived at Gubeikou first. Then Xiao Yan's house split another part from his cavalry and continued to move in the direction of Gubeikou? ”

These situations (the latest chapter of the martial arts http://wWw.23hH.coM

wWw.23hH.coM), there are naturally some people among the generals of the Han people here. There is also one of them who is the direct leader of a long barricade. Whether it was Ma Kuo, they went north in advance, or Tang Huai's department was sent out to follow up. There are sentinels from the far stop to follow, and Xiao Gan even ordered that wherever the two Song troops go, the far stop must follow? !

Some of them reacted quickly and had already guessed what it was, and couldn't help but tremble and said, "The Jurchen wants to go south?"

The Jurchens went south, which can be described as a great change. But it's not a chance in any way! Such a huge Great Liao Empire was still unbeatable a few years ago. It's like a behemoth in the Northland. Thousands of Jurchens rose to press the tiger water, and in a few years, they had already broken the Great Liao Empire, and even now they are dying!

In front of the Song people, whether it is the Khitan or the Xi people, Bohai, or even Yandi Han'er. No matter how grand the Song army of Gaoliang Henan was, there was not much fear. They all feel that they can still fight. It is not yet known who killed the deer.

But for the Jurchens, it is fear from the heart! The Jurchen is far away in Bei'anzhou, and everyone can pretend not to know. Because it's useless to think about it, the hundreds of thousands of elites of the Heavenly Skill Emperor have been defeated miserably, what can happen to the 40,000 remnants of Yandi? The Jurchens were also undying against the Great Liao, and Emperor Tianhu fled far away from Jiashan, still chasing and deterring. In order to destroy Liao, he also signed an alliance with the Great Song Dynasty. This Jurchen went south, it was the sworn enemy of Da Liao, but there was an even more terrible enemy!

Why does King Xiao Gan still say that this is an opportunity?

Xiao Gan looked at everyone's shocked faces and smiled faintly: "Of course, the Jurchen is the mortal enemy of the Great Liao, is it really an ally of the Song people?" The Jurchen really went south, and it was also a provocation in the chaos. Test the Song people's false and real ideas. When the woman really rises, it is when Ah Gu beats the old man and has no intention of entering, and he is young and strong, and it is the time to be ambitious. How can you not covet the more prosperous Song Kingdom? If you go south, try to find out the truth and reality, it is the precursor of the southward movement, although the Song people can't fight, but the calculation of these things is clear, how can you not understand the mind of the Jurchens? If the Jurchens go south, it will not be us who will face the enemy, we will only have one Yanjing City, but the Song people! The Song people have been thinking about this land of Yanyun for more than a hundred years! ”

Everyone was just silent, repeating Xiao Gan's words in their hearts several times. Half an hour later. Only then did one person ask in a trembling voice: "Even if the Song people are like a great enemy, how can this be our opportunity?"

Xiao Gan sneered: "The Song people want this Yanjing and want to go crazy!" They also want the emperor, the great civil ministers and military generals, and the western soldiers and soldiers. How many Song people expect to make a fortune by relying on Fuyan's exploits to get promoted. Since the Northern Expedition of the Song people, the pace of chaos has hindered each other, can't you see it? They all want this feat! The southerners are nothing more than this, once the Jurchens go south, these Song people will only go crazy and want to grab this Yanjing first! As long as Yanjing is in hand, these southbound Jurchens, whether it is to give New Year's coins or bribes, as long as they can buy them to go back safely, even if it is done, I will not be mistaken, the southerners will only do this, and it can only be like this! ”

Xiao Gan stood up violently, and those Xi generals also got up in a hurry, and the sound of the collision of the nails and leaves was sonorous and loud. Xiao Gan strode just to the south side of the watchtower, and pointed to the *** of the Song army camp: "The Song people will be under the strict orders behind." At the urging of their generals, they will cross the river in a hurry, seek a decisive battle with us, and snatch Yanjing as soon as possible! They think that my Xiao family has no heart to fight! If the Song people hold on to us in the deep ditch and high fortress, we will have insufficient military resources, so we can only tie our hands. These long-lasting Song troops crossed the river and drove hundreds of miles to the Gaoliang River, and hurriedly crossed the river without repairing, and hurriedly fought against the water. When the time comes. That's when we drove them into the Sorghum River! Are you still afraid that you won't be able to win against such a Song army?

Xiao Gan's tone was sharp, his eyes were like electricity, and he just looked at the few henchmen under his command fiercely. These days, the weak and caring for the self-pretending to be forced have long been swept away. Every Xi general's heart was like overheating, and his fur almost stood on end, and he stood up straight one by one, meeting Xiao Gan's gaze: "We have never been afraid of these southerners!" ”

Xiao Gan's voice was like a friend of gold and stone, and he raised his head to the sky: "But any hero, I will only thank him for being born in troubled times, not in the autumn of leisurely travel!" Only the battle must be won, the attack must be won, and his enemy will be defeated.

in order to survive in this troubled world! Such times. In the end, there can only be one left, the hero of the world, my Xiao family, I want to be such a person! If you defeat the Song army, you will live, and if you don't win, you will die, and the man will be a husband. It's also painful like this, why bother with such a mother-in-law? The decisive battle is not far off."

Everyone was solemn, just quietly listening to Xiao Gan's heart. In this mystery. His slender figure seems to fill both sides of the Gaoliang River. It will also shroud Yanjing behind him!

Only the more straightforward general of the Xi people. At this time, he asked again: "If the Song people are dang, there are people who understand, and the husband blocks the north and goes south to the Nugaoliang River, just after repelling the Jurchens with the curse, and then fighting with us, what should I do at that time?" ”

This Xi general participated in the Battle of Yizhou. It was still sent out to resist the reinforcements of the Song army on the bank of Yishui. The three hundred Song rides. The scene of appearing on the hill with the sun, and then rushing towards his black and oppressive camp without hesitation, still remembers it clearly. At this time, I don't know why my heart moved, but I remembered it all.

Those are also Song people

Xiao Gan was stunned by the question, and a name unexpectedly appeared in his mind. He and this person have never met, but between Zhuo Yi, this person has brought him the greatest humiliation since he led the army! Now this person is leading the most elite cavalry group of the Great Song Dynasty, the first to arrive in Gaoliang Henan, showing off his military might in front of his military formation, as the vanguard of the entire army of the Great Song Dynasty!

Then Xiao Gan shook his head fiercely. dispelled this inexplicable uneasiness in his heart, and sneered: "The Song people and my Da Liao have been at war for more than a hundred years, have there ever been such characters?" Have there ever been heroes like this? Only our Da Liao went south again and again, and when we were at our weakest, they came from the north, and they were still defeated by us at the Baigou River! And in Gaoliang River, this ending will not change either! Those ministers of the Song people will only bury all their most elite Western troops! ”

The sorghum river roared. Across this white river, the Song Liao camp *** reflected the Gaoliang River brightly. The wind swept across the river, whimpering like a knife. On the watchtower of Xiao Yan's camp of the Song army on the other side.

Xiao Yan is also like Xiao Gan. He stood by the railing, but he did not look towards Hebei, but looked at the clouds and mountains in the direction of Gubeikou in the distance.

The night was silent, and I don't know how long he had been standing.

Even the guards behind him, the dew condensed and slipped on the iron helmet, just like the guards behind Xiao Gan.

There was a sound of movement on the stairs behind him, Xiao Yan's heart moved, and he rushed in and turned his head in the direction of Hebei. Looking at the faint *** of the Liao army camp in the distance.

Then I heard Han Shizhong's voice: "Xuanzan, don't pretend, I know that you don't worry about what Xiao is doing now, where is your mind involved, I am by your side all day, can I still know?" ”

Xiao Yan looked back at him, this Po Han Wu was very disapproving. Leaning on the pillar of the watchtower. He grinned and retracted his voice.

Xiao Yan's voice was cold: "Do you still want to question my decision?" ”

Han Shizhong shook his head: "The soldiers will turn to grass and follow the wind, I have been a soldier for more than ten years, and I have never heard any military orders." I did it and left, I was defeated more than once, I can always come out alive, how to make a decision in Xuanzan, I have no opinion, anyway, the first can't die, the second is to be beaten down, and I, the deputy capital Yuhou, can't reach the position that the official family is worried about, and what are you afraid of? ”

Touching Han Shizhong's old cow tendon that kept chewing, Xiao Yan had no way to take him. can only smile bitterly: "The army has come up, what else?" If Lao Tzu didn't run headlong into Yanjing, how many people would have to take Lao Tzu first, "You are not afraid of Han Wu, generations of Song people, Lao Tzu is a person who has returned to the south" In the future, I still expect to have big fish and meat in Bianliang City, marry seventeen or eighteen daughters-in-law, and die dozens of sons to fight for Lao Tzu's family property."

Han Shizhong pouted: "Being a hero is only half of it, and it doesn't matter who leads the cavalry, as long as the army can fight steadily, not just thinking about pulling other people's hind legs, this credit is all set" Xuanzan thinks, does this have a taste? Haven't you achieved miraculous feats that others dare not think of, turned the tide of the tide, and achieved what everyone can't do? Only then did everyone follow you to fight to the death, only to let the proud soldiers like Shengjiejun and Bai Hangbing Soldiers bow their heads to their ears, and only then did they let my old Han follow you around behind your ass all day long like a horse? Now look at it, that's just it

One..."

Xiao Yan looked at Han Shizhong angrily and roared in a low voice: "What can I do!" Lao Tzu just wants this great achievement! What else can turn the tide? As long as Yanjing is snatched, even if the Jurchens really come, the Xuan Shuai above will have a way to send them away. Lao Tzu just needs to lie down and eat, and the rest is about Lao Tzu's! If you want to do big things, you have to survive the curtain to say, you have never bowed your head in your life since you splashed Han Wu? If you don't think it tastes, please! I don't care about you! ”

Han Shizhong was stunned for a moment, and grinned again: "Follow the praise of you, you will be promoted quickly, I didn't say that I wanted to leave, I just felt a little bored, and there will really be no waves in the future?" If the Jurchens really go south, how variable are they, Xuanzan didn't expect it? I can think of things that I can't think of, Xuanzan can't think of it, it's really the sun hitting the west, so I'll ask God to worship Buddha now. The Jurchens stayed comfortably in Bei'an and didn't want to join in the fun. Ma Xuanzan and the boy of the Yue family, as well as Tang Huai's stuffy gourd, ran for nothing. My old Han followed Xuanzan and made a head of Ershui. In the future, the happiness of eating and drinking spicy food will not be endless..."

Xiao Yan couldn't cry or laugh, and waved his hand to drive people away: "Get out!" Tomorrow, all the prime ministers will discuss with Lao Liu, and you must follow. Don't talk nonsense, I can tolerate you, others can't tolerate you! Go back and get the needle and sew up that black mouth of yours! ”

Han Shizhong nodded, and said that he would leave, very happy. When he was about to go downstairs, he turned back again: "Xuanzan, the Jurchens are really going south, do you still have such an attitude?" To be honest, my old Han really can't wait to change positions with Ma Xuanzan Yue Jiabu, and ask for peace of mind, if everyone is pretending to be stupid here, it's nothing, my old Han can pretend to be stupid better than anyone else. The name of this Po Han Wu is not called in vain, "But now they have chosen it themselves, and it should be in Gubeikou!" Who can pretend to be at ease?

If there is really a storm coming from the north. I only hope that following Xuanzan can restore this situation

After saying this, Han Shizhong went downstairs with a ding-dong bang. The faces of the two guards behind Xiao Yan were stiff, and they couldn't help but peek at Xiao Yan. only saw the wry smile on Xiao Yan's face.

I just expect Lao Tzu to be a hero, although Lao Tzu is fortunate to cross, but it is not three heads and six arms, "It's really ***!" ”
