Chapter 124: Two Armies (Part I)
For a moment, he didn't even know where he was.
In the nightmare just now, it was still the bloody battle between the two sides that was difficult to distinguish between the winners and losers. The fighters on both sides seemed to be wearing hideous masks and fighting together in silence. All the scenery is black and white, only the blood that flows all over the battlefield, and the crimson is so eye-catching.
In front of his eyes, there is a big banner of the southerners, this banner, like a mountain, stands in front of him, no matter how he pounces, no matter how many times he pounces, but he is getting farther and farther away from that big flag.
In the blink of an eye, there was no one on the battlefield anymore, only the southerner surnamed Xiao was handsome, and he was looking at him coldly not far away. The long sword in his hand shone with a compelling light, but he couldn't move a single step, only watching him slowly approach, holding the long sword high and stabbing down!
At this time, Yin Keshu felt the sharp pain on his face, and reached out to touch it, only to find that his face had been covered with a white cloth, and only a pair of eyes were exposed. At the same time, the voices of many guards sounded in his ears: "Yin Keshu, don't touch it, the commander of the Nanren who has taken the medicine and is a straight thief is really not light, there is an inch into the flesh, and bones are seen in some places, Yin Keshu, you are fainting in pain, it will be almost two days at once!" β
Yin Keshu found himself in a dilapidated building, with a bed set up in it, and he was lying on it, in this dim building, sitting or standing, it was Mouke and Pu Liyan under his command, as well as his personal guards, watching him wake up, everyone was full of joy. There was also a stove in the building, which burned vigorously to prevent him from getting cold after being injured. There is also an altar at the foot of the building, which is full of various animal bones, presumably also used to pray for witchcraft to wake up and recover early.
Although the wound on his face was still painful, it was much better than the feeling that made him faint in pain when he was injured that day, and he didn't know how much ointment he had applied in the white cloth. The whole building was filled with the smell of grease and ointment.
"Where is this? How about the army? The three Moks in our outpost, the sect set them up, have they been contacted?
A Mouke suddenly stepped forward and replied: "Yinkeshu, isn't this exactly in Gubeikou?" This is the arrow tower of Gubeikou! All of us, you don't have to worry, it's all packed. In the battle two days ago, we folded one hundred and forty or fifty children, and more than 100 heavy wounds, all settled in the Gubeikou Pass, and about half of them survived and couldn't get on the battle of the good southerners and horses, so a fight! Sect set them up, has been contacted, originally wanted them to abandon the front dock wall back to rendezvous, set up a horse said that it can't work, we can't show weakness in front of the southerners, but also have to fight with them! We can't be stronger than him, so Shehema took his guards to the south dock wall and went to the sect to meet them, but we led the team to stay here, waiting for you to wake up and turn around the south dock wall, and sent the doctor over quickly, and I don't know what herbs were used, anyway, if you have a silver technique, what three long and two short, these guys, one by one, will lose their heads."
Yin Keshu didn't care about his injuries at all, and when he heard the whole army retreating from Gubeikou waiting for him to wake up, the expression on his face was not clear, and anger had already appeared in his eyes. Later, when he heard about Shehema's intentions and his whereabouts, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"You fools, Shehema did the right thing! What's the matter? Can't let the southerners look down on our Jurchen military horses! In the battle two days ago, both sides suffered heavy casualties, and whoever can still put on an offensive posture must take the lead! If we retreat back to the north of the Great Wall because of that day's battle, it will be difficult for us to go south here in the future! The Song people are a big country, and after destroying the Liao people, they border with us, if there are more people in the south, such a person as the commander surnamed Xiao, our Jurchen border land will not be peaceful! We must take advantage of the sharpest edge of our army to defeat the southerners and be afraid! Otherwise, we will be unimaginable in the future."
In addition to being seriously injured, Yin Keshu spoke a little panting. Several guards tried to persuade him to stop, but Yin Keshu stopped them with his eyes. He gasped for two sentences, as if he had something to say here.
"Although Shehema is a little arrogant and doesn't know that the war is difficult, but in this regard, he made the right choice! We can't stop here, immediately gather the whole army, Gubeikou is guarded by new foot soldiers, and the rest of the Jurchen sons, sweep the number to the south, and meet with Shehema! Sect set up them, and they actually dared to face the light cavalry of the southerners who were alone in the depths without fighting, and they were the first to frustrate their spirits, and they had to take care of them."
As he spoke, Yin Keshu sat up, and once he sat up, he was impatient and still on the couch. He was unharmed, and he rolled over, his face still heavily wrapped in white cloth, and paced barefoot on the cold ground.
"The southerners seem to be in a quick battle, so they are so eager to frustrate our spirits and test the reality with us in a field battle. And they held out! Now it's us, it's not conducive to a quick war, we have to look at the reality of the southerners before making a decision! If they come north again quickly, we will have to defend the outpost wall instead of a quick battle with them. If they don't come back, we will go south first, entangle them, plunder the four fields, shake the swallow land, let them show their flaws, and then defeat them! If the southerners really go north, it will not be good for him to go to war rashly! This southerner army and horse can't be defeated in one battle, if we are defeated, the next time we go south, we don't know when it will come!
Let's go, gather the horses at once. Let's go! There must be no further delay here".
A Jurchen pro-guard rashly said: "Yin Keshu, your injury"
Yin Keshu was stunned, and the anger in his eyes was even stronger, he simply struck three times and twice, and in the exclamation of the generals, he ripped off the white cloth wrapped around his head!
On his face, a knife scar slashed deeply and diagonally across his cheek, cutting his nose into two sections, crooked to the sides. The wound was even more painful when he saw the wind, which made the muscles on Yin Keshu's face twist, and the broken nose was even more crooked.
This fresh knife mark on his face made the face of a sturdy man in his thirties, who was already quite upright, indescribably hideous and terrifying.
But Yin Keshu didn't care: "Compared to the future fate of the Jurchen clan, what is this injury?" This sword revenge will always be avenged a hundredfold, and now the whole army will be abolished and set off."
The room is full of Jurchen Mouke, and there are also Yinkeshu guards. In the tragic battle two days ago, they did not win the first time, but hastily raised the heavy boss and retreated, to say that these Jurchen athletes did not feel defeat, frustration and confusion, it is false. It is precisely because the Jurchen soldiers and horses have hardly suffered such a setback since the start of the army, so they find it extremely difficult to accept!
Gather troops in one place at Gubeikou, tidy up and rest, and show the disdain of Yinkeshu in everyone's military discussion, the complaints and complaints of each Mouke Puliyan, the tossing and turning screams of the seriously injured and dying daughter Zhenerlang, and even near the left and right of Gubeikou, the disbelief on the faces of those new attached troops under the command of the former Dong Dalang, who have always been cautious in front of the Jurchens, and some schadenfreude, all make such frustration and chaos doubly double!
But now, their commander Yin Keshu finally woke up, and immediately showed that he didn't take that defeat to heart at all, but thought about how to completely defeat the unprecedentedly tenacious and capable Nanren military horse they encountered.
Yes, there should not be such an opponent in front of them, no matter how strong the enemy is, he will not be able to withstand the impact of the next battle Jurchen Iron Cavalry, they will win, and they will definitely achieve the final victory!
Everyone bowed deeply: "Yinkeshu, let's set off now, with you leading, next time we will definitely crush all the southerners!" We're going to go all the way to Yanjing! β
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦οΌββ¦ββ¦οΌβ¦ One
On the Youyan border land north of the Qidu River, an astonishing news was flying from the north to the south.
Even a thousand years ago, there was no place for modern means of communication. For Haoqiang, who has been carefully observing the development of the situation with his ears pricked up in this troubled world, and finally decided which direction to invest his life in, some information is still transmitted quickly between them.
A few days ago, under the leadership of Dong Dalang, the Jurchen soldiers and horses crossed the Gubeikou Pass and came south, sweeping the entire Youyan borderland. Everywhere you go. There was no big earthquake. These border places are strong, and the strength of the Jurchen soldiers and horses in the ears has long been filled, and for the northern land that respects strength, the rising Jurchen seems to be the natural successor of the Great Liao Empire.
As for the Great Song Dynasty, which may also destroy the last remnants of the Great Liao, one is that under the rule of the Great Song Dynasty, which has a complete bureaucratic system, these Yandi heroes who are used to separating one side are a little lacking in interest, and they don't have any national righteousness in their minds, but they just want to change it, and the new master will maintain their position as a prestige, and even climb a step higher.
At the beginning of the Jurchen rise, it is impossible for the ruling power to extend to the south of the Great Wall in a short period of time, change the court and join the Jurchens, at least for a long time, this land of Youyan is still their territory, and they may even use the Jurchen banner to expand their power in this land!
Another. The more important reason is the feeling of power of the powerful people in these places. If the Northern Expedition of the Great Song Dynasty has a strong lineup, the soldiers are extremely sharp. Since the Northern Expedition, the momentum has been like a bamboo, the battle slashed Xiao Gan, captured Yelu Dashi, has taken Yanjing City, and arrived here, even if it is reluctant, these places are strong and strong, and from then on become a local vassals of the Great Song Dynasty, or simply be a rich man for the rest of his life.
However, since the Northern Expedition of the Great Song Dynasty, it has been losing continuously, and even the only remaining remnants of the mountains and rivers in Daliao cannot be swallowed! When the Jurchen soldiers and horses crossed Yanshan, the main force of the Northern Expedition of the Great Song Dynasty barely reached the Gaoliang River, and the victory or defeat of the final battle with the Liao army and horses led by Xiao Gan is still unknown!
In this case, most of the powerful people in these places have made the most realistic choice, and the dock-walled forts where the Jurchen soldiers arrived immediately cut the door and returned to Shun. The dock fortress where the Jurchen soldiers and horses had never arrived, sent envoys to find the Jurchen nobles who also expressed their willingness to surrender, and carefully selected gifts were born and flowed, looking for the few Jurchen nobles who led the troops to the south. Desperately want to send it over.
Unexpectedly, in a blink of an eye, the wind suddenly changed, the Great Song Dynasty already had a military horse in Gubeikou in advance, and had been fighting fiercely with the Jurchen army for more than ten days, needless to say, the Jurchen army was because of the resistance of this Great Song army and horses, and the main force was still cut off to the north of Yanshan, so only hundreds of Jurchen soldiers and horses appeared in the border of Youyan, sweeping around, although the momentum was great, the strength was actually very simple
Then it was in Danzhou, the northbound Song army arrived and fought a bloody battle with the Jurchen forward, together with that, Dong Dalang's department.
The two sides jointly competed for the Danzhou governance led by Wang Yasha, and in the case of internal response, the Jurchen people still did not grab Danzhou, but were beaten back by the gray! Dong Dalang, who was majestic when he went south, made the Song people a lonely person!
This qiΔ has shocked these heroes in the Youyan border land enough, for them, the Jurchens are invincible beings. Daliao has hundreds of thousands of heroes. In front of these Jurchen iron horsemen, they were still defeated again and again, and it was difficult to find a few victories. Unexpectedly, the main force of the Song army was still sluggish in the Gaoliang River, and the division that went north made the Jurchens suffer setbacks one after another!
The attitude of the Yandi heroes suddenly changed again, and they immediately chased back the envoys who had expressed their acceptance to the Jurchens, doubled the dispatch of various sentinels, strengthened the communication between the dock walls and fortresses, and were ten times more cautious and serious than before.
After Xiao Yan arrived in Danzhou, Lihai let out a rumor that he was the first to cross north and lead the army here with hundreds of horsemen who broke Xiao Gan's iron cavalry and tens of thousands of horsemen in Zhuoyi Erzhou, which made these local heroes a little stunned. The Great Song Dynasty sent the most elite soldiers and horses in the entire empire, and Xiao Yan, a newly rising famous general, the Jurchens only had two or three hundred outposts, and setbacks were inevitable.
But in their hearts, the vast majority of the powerful people in these places still think that when the main force of the Jurchen soldiers and horses still stranded in the Gubeikou area pours into the pass, even Xiao Yan will be difficult to resist the blow of the Jurchen army! There is no other reason, the Jurchen guards answered the post with less than 3,000 iron cavalry to break through the 700,000 army of the Great Liao, plus the myth of sweeping the entire Liao country, the Liao country, and the myth of not meeting the opponent, it is really too amazing!
The rumor that Xiao Yan released at that time did not come in too much use, he had already shocked the reputation of the remnants of the Liao Kingdom, and he was still a little weaker in front of the Jurchens. However, Xiao Yan did not wait for him in Danzhou, and his domineering spirit shocked these places to prostrate and surrender, and almost immediately led more than a thousand light horsemen to the north, and without any assistance, he went north to the left of Gubeikou, to aid Yue Fei, and to show off the military might of the Great Song Dynasty to the Jurchens in the south!
Once Xiao Yan went north, these Youyan border heroes paid attention to the whereabouts of more than a thousand Song troops, and their probe horses were far away from the Song army. The Song army didn't bother to care about them, and under the distant gaze of these probes, the Shengjie soldiers took out their best martial arts and prestige. Showing off the splendor of their great Song light horses, ten pawns! Such as "Guest! Jingli, under the leadership of Xiao Yan, did not stop, did not hesitate, and crossed the walls of the forts one by one along the way, and even roared through the walls of the fort and dock guarded by the Jurchen horses, and the Jurchen advance military horses led by Zong Shi did not dare to open the door to meet them!
Xiao Yan's actions were enough to deter the frontier heroes everywhere, but he didn't expect that even more shocking news would come back quickly after the hard work of these probes!
The lone army of the Song people in the ancient north entrance turned out to be an invincible general, nearly a thousand true Jurchen iron cavalry, plus three or four thousand new attached army foot soldiers, such a lineup is enough to defeat the Great Liao Empire has tens of thousands of troops. But it took Gubeikou after a difficult time, this Song people fierce general, actually rushed out for him, nearly a thousand real Jurchen iron cavalry chased and deterred, but still gave him one person, one gun and one horse, killed dozens of miles, Jurchen elite and out, still can't take him!
A lone army of the Song people, under the command of the famous general Xiao Yan, collided head-on with the Jurchen soldiers and horses, and with one impact, they rescued the fierce general of the Song army who was guarding Gubeikou. This Song light horse, when encountering the power of the true female Allah, the number was only slightly superior, and it was deep into the dangerous place, but it did not have the slightest intention of retreating, but stood on the battlefield, advancing towards the Jurchen soldiers and horses, and the two sides launched an earth-shattering bloody battle on a battlefield on the bank of the Chaohe River encountered, both sides killed and injured Yingye, these Jurchen soldiers and horses were heavily armored, carrying giant axes, and repeatedly impacting more than ten times. And the Song army did not retreat for a moment, Xiao Yan's banner was behind the array of the Song army, and the Jurchen soldiers and horses were repelled again and again.
These Jurchen elites who defeated Yelu Yanxi and broke through the large array of hundreds of thousands of Liao troops, actually went through a bloody battle for half a day, until it was dark, the Jurchen commander personally went into battle, and finally returned with a feather, and even many wounded soldiers were not brought back, and retreated to Gubeikou. The Song army had the last laugh on the battlefield, and after night fell, they took the wounded soldiers, collected the spoils, killed all the Jurchen wounded soldiers who were abandoned on the battlefield, and slowly retreated!
This is the first time since the rise of the Jurchens, attacking with all their might, and in the case of similar numbers, they have not destroyed the opponent, but the wolf bèi has retreated! Moreover, their commander was killed and injured by the Song people, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead!
Those scouts sent by the powerful from all over the place, on the mountains or hills far away from the battlefield, have been watching this battle in horror, if it happens that the scouts sent from two places gather together to watch the battle, and look at each other. You can see the color of the chestnuts on their faces. Such fierce battles are truly amazing!
The sound of fighting and shouting on the battlefield came as soon as it reached them, and it had become a faint roar of thunder in the distance, and these probes listened with more and more pale faces. The private soldiers who were thinking about their respective dock walls and forts, in front of these Song troops, if they attacked with all their might. How long can it last?
The Jurchens went south and crossed the Yan Mountain, and it was not easy to carry the logistics and heavy baggage. The main force of the Song people was not far from the Gaoliang River, and they occupied Danzhou, a large county known as rich. Such elite soldiers, coupled with the logistics and heavy long-distance transportation, the Song people are known to have many attacking tools, good equipment, heavy rollers, good at defending the city, and also have a reputation for attacking the city, they are strong in various places, although they are good at one side, but it is really difficult to support this elite army that is so capable of fighting, under the command of such a brave Xiao Yan, to support it for a few days!
As night fell, the war ended, and the Jurchen soldiers and horses and the Song army retreated, and these probe horses wiped the cold sweat from their heads, and went back to report what they had seen here, and everyone did not care about their horsepower, and wanted to bring back this amazing news as much as possible.
This Song army that entered Danzhou, even if there is no backup to come again, still has the strength to swallow the entire Youyan borderland, and if they repel the main force of the Jurchen soldiers and horses that have already moved south, and the Yan Rangzuo who has entered the base is in danger, then even if the Jurchens are several times more, I am afraid that it will be difficult to cross Yanshan and set foot here!
They have to make a choice!
The news was transmitted several times faster than the retreat speed of the soldiers and horses led by Xiao Yan, and the dock forts guarded by the Jurchen soldiers and horses did not resist the Jurchens who were already on their territory anyway. The other heroes from all over the country who were still waiting and watching made a choice not long after, whether it was to open the door immediately to welcome the surrender, at least to show Xiao Yan their goodwill to the Great Song Dynasty immediately, don't let Xiao Yan think that they have already attached to the Jurchens, and clean them up! Some of them have made up their minds, the Song people are so strong, and they have sent such a strong army to the north, their determination to take the Youyan border land has been decided, since this is the case, it is better to return to Shun as soon as possible, maybe in the future in the Great Song Dynasty, there is still a little step to advance! "One
The end of autumn in Yandi is the best season in this land.
In this era, there is no sandstorm in the northland of Xiao Yan's era. The autumn scene, the sky is high and the clouds are light, and the whole world is very transparent.
The weeds on the plains have withered, showing a withered yellow look, and the air is slightly cold, but it is Cheng dΓΉ that makes people feel refreshed. After the end of autumn, it is the long bitter cold season in the north, the wind and snow are full of sky, sweeping around, such as the battle, the soldiers iron armor frost, eating ice and lying in the snow, for most of the Song people in the south, is the most cool thing.
For Xiao Yan, who is accustomed to heating in the office in modern times, and there is heating in the car when he goes out, it is even more unbearable.
I'm used to working hard, but it doesn't mean that as my status gradually increases, I have to endure hardships in life
Xiao Yan rode on a horse, looking at the late autumn scene of the unpolluted medieval Yandi in front of him with satisfaction, and thought in his heart, or take advantage of the tail of autumn, and quickly put the Jurchen godson here, as well as what bird in Yanjing City, Xiao Ganyelu Dashi quickly packed up, as soon as winter comes, either in Yanjing City, or simply return to the city in the Great Song Dynasty, or even Bianliang City, Lao Tzu said that he would also be in the house, hugging the little girl's fiery ** for the winter, and not killing in the wild, leading a group of big-headed soldiers to be blown by the wind to the skin cracked
In front of him and behind him, are the light cavalry of the Shengjie army, their queue is not strict, all over the mountains and fields on the way to the march, to the south has crossed the dock walls where the Jurchen army horses are located for a day or two, after repelling the female Allah power of Yinkeshu, Xiao Yan still has a trace of soberness, his combat power has been used to the limit, if he is invited by these Jurchen outposts on the way to retreat, at that time, maybe even if he and the main force can retreat, hundreds of wounded soldiers will have to be left behind!
They took advantage of the darkness of the night to tighten their teeth and stop talking about the same things before they spoke. The more he begged the Jurchen outpost military horses, judged the confusion, and quickly advanced towards Danzhou, all the horses that could not walk on the road were discarded, and all the remaining radial weights were abandoned without hesitation. Safely passed the dangerous place, Xiao Yan himself was a little strange, could it be that the defeat of Allah's power also spread to these outposts, so that they didn't even dare to come out to invite the attack?
If the Jurchen generals were all such figures, if he wanted to expel them, I am afraid it would be much easier, and he would be able to rush back to Yanjing to grab the merit!
After crossing the dangerous ground, Xiao Yan was also relieved to find that after this real hard battle, his command seemed to be a peerless blade that had passed through Kuli, and it had already shone with dazzling light on them.
On that day, he led the soldiers and horses used to create the miracle of Kefu Zhuoyi Erzhou, but it was only four hundred. Those generals who survived the bloody battle have become the backbone of the thousands of troops they are now leading, if it weren't for the existence of these backbones, this bloody battle between himself and the Jurchen soldiers and horses, the whole army would not have been so tenacious and tenacious!
After this battle, he also brought back five or six hundred intact soldiers and two hundred wounded soldiers, and he could return to the army to continue fighting after a period of recuperation.
Is this more poisonous and less backbone coming out? If the Jurchen soldiers and horses were completely expelled from the south of Yanshan, and after fighting and winning the battle with the most powerful military horses of this era, how many elite and fierce soldiers would be added to their subordinates?
He has the signboard of the Shenwu Victorious Army, and it is very easy to recruit and rebel. There are many horses on the border of Youyan, and these backbones are added to the military horses that have expanded here. There is no doubt that it will become the most elite and powerful military force in Yandi, which is the guarantee that he can go back and seize Yanjing City, settle on Yanyun, and even use it to do many things in the future!
The Song army is well-equipped, that is not to say, these veterans from the Western army are also very accustomed to life in the army, all of them, Su zhì are quite good, what they lack is the kind of self-confidence and will to dare to fight and fight in the field with strong enemies, and continue to win! It is precisely because the light and heavy cavalry of the Great Song Dynasty is too precious, and they are reluctant to throw them into the battlefield until the critical moment, so although the few light cavalry and heavy cavalry of the Great Song Dynasty are armed to the teeth, the equipment is the peak level of this era, in addition to horses, Su zhì can also be called first-class. But he doesn't have much experience in battle formations. I'm not used to winning one after another!
He led them, unconsciously for the vanguard of the whole army, after a hard battle has been forward, but also captured a large number of excellent horses, in this series of battles, a series of miraculous victories, has been tempered out of a Song army rare can win thousands of miles of light and heavy cavalry mixed powerful cavalry group, this is the most lacking thing in the military system of the Great Song Dynasty!
The most depressing thing is that these victorious soldiers and white technical soldiers are still borrowed. The Great Song Dynasty will not put such a powerful military force in his hands for a long time, even if he expells the Jurchens and turns around to snatch the Fuyan Tougong, it is impossible, these elites brought out by himself have to be returned, thinking about it, it is dripping blood in his heart
But for now, let yourself and these athletes enjoy the crisp autumn scenery of this Youyan border land, and the excitement after one miraculous victory after another"...".........,...
In front of and behind Xiao Yan's horse, there were all light cavalry composed of a mixture of the Shengjie army and the few Shenwu Changsheng troops, one by one. His face was now full of relaxed expressions, sitting on the horse in various postures, and slowly following Xiao Yan's banner towards the south. Whether it is the Shengjie Army from Zhulu in Shaanxi, or the Shenwu Changsheng Army with a majority of Yandi people, everyone has not been able to distinguish each other, and they are in a group of threes and twos, talking and laughing loudly, above the plains. There was a whistling sound everywhere.
These athletes already have the appearance of a hundred battle elites who are relaxed to the extreme, but they are full of strong confidence in themselves. Although everyone is scattered, but the sentinels have been released far away, on guard in all directions, once there is a warning signal, this seemingly scattered and chaotic team, Lihai will gather in a column, and then become an invincible hero!
The hundreds of wounded soldiers brought back are now being treated well. When Xiao Yan set out, he brought almost 2,000 horses, seventy percent of the war horses and thirty percent of the pack horses. On the battlefield, four or five hundred were wounded, and only one or two hundred were captured in the hands of the Jurchens, and they could not make ends meet, and when they hurriedly evacuated the dangerous place, they lost three or four hundred war horses and pack horses that could not walk. The most embarrassing time. In addition to the wounded, there are also two people riding together.
On the third day, Xiao Yan found that the number of war horses and pack horses in his hand actually exceeded when he came!
I don't know how Haoqiang quickly learned the news of his victory along the way, and how to accurately grasp his whereabouts. After leaving the dangerous place, nearly a hundred miles away from the Jurchen outpost, the envoys sent by these places appeared one after another, and one by one they came to him to worship in front of his horse, and muttered a lot of words that he had longed for a long time and his heart was towards the Great Song Dynasty.
In these places, Haoqiang more accurately grasped the information that Xiao Yan was injured and killed, and lacked information about war horses and pack horses, and almost every Haoqiang envoy team would bring some horses and goods as gifts. The large dock wall fort sent hundreds of horses, and the small ones were more than a dozen. In addition, some young and strong men said that they were serving the Great Song masters along the way, and they were used as auxiliaries, and they were eager for Xiao Yan and Captain Xiao to accept them.
Some places that don't do anything are strong, so they simply sent their own children to listen to Xiao Yan's command!
These things sent to the door, Xiao Yan is naturally unceremoniously accommodated, now the wounded and pawns are comfortably lying on the rope net between the two horses, the young and strong auxiliary soldiers sent from all over the country, bring their own belongings, and form an auxiliary team belonging to the Shenwu Changsheng Army, send hot food and water, there are horses along the way, and those without horses follow down, and take care of and serve diligently. The food that Xiao Yan carried when he advanced alone was thrown away when he retreated, and in the past two days, the whole army has been treated by these Yandi places.
Those who were covered by the cavalry of the Shengjie Army, as well as one or two hundred light horsemen with messy clothes, and some with armor bags. Some of them are simply dressed in cloth, and the children of these powerful families from all over the country are now under Xiao Yan's command, and they are carefully following the actions of the whole army one by one, tightly not leaving Xiao Yan's banner, needless to say that Xiao Yan can occasionally look down and ask them what they want, that is, those officers and soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty can be friendly to them and talk a few words, which is enough for them to be happy for a while.
After walking for three days, this team of messengers still originated from the beginning, and one appeared from time to time, and from time to time it was recognized forever. It is only a few dozen miles away from the Qidu River. Xiao Yan was already surprised. There are almost 2,000 horses under his command, which is twice as large as when he came!
Encountering this situation, Xiao Yan could only sigh in his heart: "The power comes out of the barrel of the gun, which era it is put in, it is all a wise saying" "..................,... Thin... One
The army was vast, and there was only a half-cut scorched dock wall in front of him, and weeds swaying in the wind had grown in front of him, and he didn't know which time the Yandi Haoqiang attacked each other a few years ago.
Seeing the prospect in front of him, the soldiers of the Song Army in Xiao Yan's queue cheered.
"Straight lady thief, Qidu River is not far away, Danzhou is coming!"
"I went for two or three days, and came back for three or four days, but this trip was not close, and I also had a meeting with the Jurchen godson. In the past, the Liao people blew the Jurchen Lezi into the sky, and now they don't bite the old bird! Now there are still people serving, and they are coming back comfortably! β
"If you know the feats that Xiao Xuanzan has led us, the captains of the Xianggong in Gaoliang River, I don't know if their eyes will fall down!"
"I don't know if the army has crossed the Gaoliang River, but if we have to clean up Xiao Gan, we have to wait for us to return to the division! Xiao Gan is known as an army of 40,000, and I can't stand us sweeping it away! β
"The war can be said slowly, and I don't know how Danzhou is doing now? If it's still the messy appearance when we first came, I'm not very interested, what to say, I have to have a comfortable room for us to sleep and open our eyes every day, the head is not a tent or a square sky, eat dry food and meat strips, and should have a serious meal, all new and fresh things! β
"Xiao Xuanzan gnawed on meat strips like us. You call a bird? Think of something delicious, when this unlucky Yandi war is over, you want to live, the thing on your neck is still your head, I'll be gracious and take you to the class building for a meal! What does Fan Lou look like, you may not be able to dream of it in your dreams! β
The shouts of the soldiers came, Xiao Yan stretched his waist on the horse, and scolded with a smile: "***, these guys, do you think Lao Tzu is willing to gnaw on this dry food and meat strips?" The neck is not as good as the neck, the food is bland, and the plate oil in the stomach is straight! There is delicious food, and it is also the first of Lao Tzu, first of all, no one wants to grab the front of Lao Tzu! β
By Xiao Yan's side, it was Yue Fei. After a few days of rest, although Yue Fei had made countless big and small wounds on his body, the arm of his left hand was also hanging, and there was a broken arm bone. But he seemed to be an iron-clad man, his spirit and bearing were all restored, and he sat straight on the horse with a high spirit, and when he heard Xiao Yan complaining, he smiled faintly: "Xiao Xuanzan, Ma Xuanzan still snatched Danzhou, but the whole army is a big help, we can repair it a little, and we can go north again immediately, if there is no Danzhou, there is no support for advance and retreat, this war will be very tricky; nbsp; β
Xiao Yan glanced at him and said with a smile: "Pengju, don't be full of wars, in these worlds, there are still many good lives to enjoy, and there are many godsons, and you can't kill them all!" This time I will go back to Danzhou, and I will see you rest first. Go north again, let Han Shizhong follow Lao Tzu, it is estimated that when he hears about this battle, his saliva can be smashed on the instep of his foot, this splash Han Wu, he wants to fight and he wants to go crazy, Lao Tzu has held him back twice, this time you can't rob him! Speaking of Brother Ma Kuo, it is estimated that he will be in tears when he sees you return safely, this Brother Ma, it is still difficult to let go of the first walk from Gubeikou, and when the time comes, the two of you can lie in a room and slowly chatter; nbsp; Yue Fei's expression showed a rare nervous expression, and he looked at Xiao Yan and said eagerly: "Xuanzan, go north again, can you not bring me!" My injury is nothing, even if my left arm is to be raised, I can broadcast the big gun like a fly with one hand! I don't want to be the pioneer with Brother Han, as a harem, I have to take me, there are so many martyred brothers in Gubeikou, and they are still waiting for me to go back! β
Xiao Yan was very bored, this Yue Fei has always been a young man and an old man, and he is serious. can't joke with him, but Han Wu is together, and sometimes everyone can make mistakes together. On the same day, he sprinkled in Liu Yanqing's military tent, and he and Han Shizhong cooperated seamlessly.
After one battle after another, there are several decisive battles behind, and Lao Tzu also wants to relax his nerves; nbsp; β¦β¦
Just when he and Yue Fei were staring at each other and were relatively speechless, they saw the front scout horse Fei galloping towards where his banner was, and several light horsemen sent out to scout in front of him looked at it from a distance, all with happy faces.
Still far away from Xiao Yan, they shouted one by one: "Someone's coming, someone's coming!" β
A small officer of the Shengjie Army in front didn't wait for Xiao Yan to speak, so he laughed and scolded: "Little family! There are still few people along the way? No matter how many people come, no matter how many military horses are served, the work of this sentry is still yours, and it is not the turn of others! You can open the road all the way to the mountains and build bridges when you meet the water! β
The sentinel who came shouted on the horse: "It's not the people who surrender to the service, it's the commander of Han Duyu Marquis and Yu, who led the army and horses and traveled dozens of miles." Welcome Xiao Xuanzan is here! Our military horses are coming! β
When this shout came, everyone thundered with joy, and everyone in the army, whether it was the victorious army or the Shenwu Changsheng army, raised their swords and cheered, and even the wounded soldiers who were lying between the two horses and could move a little raised their heads. The powerful people from all over the country who joined the army also looked around with a smile on their faces.
The lone army went hundreds of miles deep, came and went for several days, without any support, and fought fiercely, although it was with the pride and sharpness of victory, but the taste of this lone army to fight was not good.
Not to mention the fierce battle that day, in fact, the Song army was almost defeated! After returning to the division, when he heard the news that his army and horses had come to greet him, it seemed that this battle had been rewarded, and everyone cheered to their heart's content! ββ
It didn't take too long for Xiao Yan to see the banner of the Song Army, appearing in the sight, Han Shizhong in front and Yu Jiang in the back, these were the two generals he stayed in Danzhou. Han Shizhong pulled out a white mansion soldier, and the Shenwu Changsheng army was also brought out by Yu Jiang a lot, the two sides saw each other, Han Shizhong and they immediately sped up their horses, and they flew over as if they were flying.
Xiao Yan's eyes were good, and he saw that behind Han Shizhong and Yu Jiang, there were dozens of people and horses in messy clothes and armor following closely and carefully, needless to say that Han Shizhong and they were carrying hatred these days, and the harvest was good. I have made a little opinion on the road in the past few days, than "sitting in Danzhou, it is naturally the center of the powerful and powerful in the surrounding places, and it seems that I am alone in the north and fight for hundreds of miles." After a lot of hard work, it was not in vain!
Riding a black horse, they suddenly crossed Han Shizhong and rushed to the front. It was incorporated into the White Mansion soldiers as one. Conductor's Niu Gao.
Niu Gao, a black and strong young man, looks tall and big, looks like he can afford to wear heavy armor and can fight in battle, Xiao Yan transferred him to the White Mansion soldiers at the beginning. Niu Gao was still smiling from ear to ear at the time, he could only listen to the heavy cavalry in the Great Song Dynasty, he was still an officer, and when he was recruited as a warrior that day, Niu Gao never dreamed of today's scenery.
Unexpectedly, this time when he went north, all the brothers saw each other for the first time, but he and the bulky Bailou soldiers slowly followed behind, Yue Fei was in distress, and he didn't participate in the rescue of his brother! followed the Bai Lou soldiers to Danzhou, knowing the movement ahead, Niu Gao, a stout man, was still crying on his back, and he had to ride alone in front of him to chase Xiao Yan and them, but he was still cleaned up by Han Shizhong, so he waited anxiously in Danzhou.
The news that Xiao Yan returned victoriously and rescued Yue Fei was brought by the sons of local Haoqiang who came to Danzhou one after another to serve, and these local snakes continuously brought Xiao Yan's movements to Han Shizhong. It is a good deal to sell one in front of Xiao Yan's generals. learned that Yue Fei was fine. Xiao Yan won, and the whole city of Danzhou soared. Niu Gao was even more overjoyed, and he almost went crazy!
Han Shizhong discussed with Yu Jiang, as well as Fang Teng, who was the head of Louzhou's temporary Wenchen, and simply pulled out people not far from Danzhou in Xiao Yan's place and greeted him dozens of miles away. One is to respond to the plan. Second, Han Shizhong, as subordinates, should also congratulate the handsome on his victory as soon as possible. The third is that there are many local Haoqiang children who have joined Danzhou, and even local Haoqiang himself has come to welcome Xiao Yan, and see the return of this heroic division that defeated the power of Allah, the two armies will meet, show military might, and can also deter them well!
When he finally saw Xiao Yan's banner appear, he could no longer care about the marching order, nor did he care about the white technical soldiers under his command, he rode alone, rushed out at once, and shouted on the horse like crazy: "Brother, Xiao Xuanzan, I didn't expect us to be born!" Xiao Xuanzan, this time I went north, why didn't the straight lady thief bring me? It's good for me to follow the praise and cut off the heads of a few Jurchen Lezi! β
Han Shizhong was at the front of the queue, watching Niu Gao rush forward with a mouth full of unclean shouts, shaking his head and scolding: "I'm splashy enough, but this black guy is mixed enough!" Dare to say this to Xiao Xuanzan! It seems that it is still not cleaned up, if Xiao Xuanzan can repel the Jurchen shoes, and then he can turn back and snatch the Fu Yan Tou Gong, needless to say, this merit will be of great use. It is the majesty and murderous spirit of this commanding army, how can others dare to look at each other squarely? Not to mention Xiao Xuanzan or Wenchen, it will definitely be useful in the Great Song Dynasty, how can it be limited in the future? This black guy is Xiao Xuanzan's confidant, so rude, thanks to Xiao Xuanzan's love for his talents, he can tolerate his heart; nbsp;γ
Yu Jiang didn't talk to Han Shizhong. He was a veteran soldier who had become an elite, so he didn't know that Han Shizhong's words were meant for those people who looked panicked behind him. Besides, he has now almost been promoted by Xiao Yan to the status of the independent leader Wu Changshengjun, and he has gone out of the unexpected, and his life is doubly low-key, Han Shizhong is talking about it there, he is just laughing.
Sure enough, after Han Shizhong finished saying these few words, he turned his head and smiled at the people behind him who had surrendered to the service: "See, Xiao Xuanzan treats people like this, and can tolerate such a reckless person as Niu Gao's command, and even more of his own generals, go deep into dangerous places, how can you help him!" You are a generation, but you have a skill, and you are more loyal, in the hands of Xiao Xuanzan, how can you not make the generals come out? I have been sent by the Marquis of Yu in the Great Song Dynasty, and I am the title of the fourth-grade military attachΓ©, and you will naturally have a bright future! β
At this time, seeing Xiao Yan's banner appear in front of him, seeing the figures of the Shengjie soldiers who naturally exude the elite atmosphere of a hundred battles, and behind them, there are white technical soldiers like black iron towers holding various flags and marching like a wall, and the great Song Dynasty military power almost at this moment shrouded the entire Youyan borderland. At this time, in addition to being frightened and cautious, there is a little more eagerness to repay the effect, where can I dare to have other thoughts?
At this time, Niu Gao had already rushed to the front of Xiao Yanqi, jumped off the horse and went to pull Yue Fei first, to see if his brother was really harmless. Xiao Yan watched with a smile on the side, Zhang Xian and Yue Fei scolded Niu Gao almost at the same time: "Black guy, don't you praise Xiao Xuan?" is so reckless, Xiao Xuanzan doesn't blame, we have to clean you up."
Niu Gao sighed, turned his head, and bowed to Xiao Yanna: "Xuanzan, you went north alone and saved my brother out." Although I didn't bring me, but I already owe Xuanzan a life, this cheap life, when Xuanzan wants, just go! I also know that I am rude and rude, but I can still use it before the army, and go north in a big way, Xuanzan must not forget my Niu Gao, when I rush into battle, Xuanzan wants the head of which Lezi, I Niu Gao will die for Xuanzan will come back! β
Xiao Yan looked at him with a smile and waved his whip: "Get out!" If it weren't for Lao Tzu's good mood, a meal of military sticks would be indispensable for you, so you would have eaten noodles here! If you want to fight, there is a chance
, Lao Tzu is surrounded by elites in a hundred battles, if you want to get ahead, I'm afraid it will be very difficult, it depends on your different appearance."
Hearing Xiao Yan say this, the light cavalry soldiers who had already stationed on their horses all burst out laughing, and their laughter was full of pride.
Niu Bei touched his head and stepped aside. At this time, the Song army brigade that came to greet him was approaching, Han Shizhong Yu Jiang took the lead in jumping off the horse and striding to usher in, those who brought the service, as well as the officers of the Bailou Soldier Shenwu Changsheng Army also dismounted one after another, and followed Han Shizhong Yu Jiang forward.
The white technical soldiers and the sergeants of Shenwu Changsheng who lined up in a neat line roared and stopped their horses at the same time. The banners of the two armies are displayed, and the banner of the victorious army of the victorious return reflects each other, at this time, the majesty and murderous spirit of the Han military horses shine in the border land of Youyan, not far from Yanshan, such a scene, since the Tang Dynasty, it has not been seen for hundreds of years! β
