readx; Tan Wei pulled Hai Dongqing's head and found that this Hai Dongqing had died because of a broken neck, and he couldn't figure out whether it was because he was too strong, or if it had died before it fell, in short, this was the first Hai Dongqing to sacrifice his life for the country. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

His own Hai Dongqing, who was missing a lot of hair, screamed miserably on the side, Tan Wei was worried that this one would also die, so he hurriedly sent it to his mansion, where this Hai Dongqing would be best taken care of by the falcon trainers.

Hai Dongqing's status in the army is very high, and Tan Wei is now worried about whether he will be punished for the death of this Hai Dongqing.

As for the military newspaper tied to Haidongqing's legs, it is not new, and a fool can guess what it says, it is nothing more than that a large army has approached Hequ City.

opened the military newspaper inside, and sure enough, Liang Ji with more than 10,000 people was stationed in the Xiongyong Village less than thirty miles away from Hequ City, waiting for an opportunity to sneak attack the Khitans.

Tan Wei slapped his head in annoyance, Hai Dongqing had already come over, and the blind people had seen the battle of Hai Dongqing in the sky just now, who would have thought that the reinforcements from Hequ City had arrived?

Liang Ji will not fight without the marshal, which is well-known in the western army of Beijing, his city has now been besieged by the Xixia and Liao, and after the merger of the two armies, there are only more than 10,000 people, and it is already good to be able to hold on to the city without losing, where is the strength to fight a field battle with Xiao Dahu, the king of the North Courtyard, with more than 300,000 troops?

Tan Wei now only hopes that Liang Ji will not have his brain to sneak attack Xiao Dahu at night, in the past few years, he and Ge Tianfang have used countless sneak attack methods against Xiao Dahu, and his army is growing. At the same time, the Liao people are also growing.

Hai Dongqing is a living example, in the past, he relied on Hai Dongqing's reconnaissance methods and didn't know how many Khitans he had run.

The Khitans were not stupid, they soon discovered the true use of Hai Dongqing, and the Hai Dongqing collected from all over the country soon appeared in the sky above Xijing, although those Hai Dongqing had no way to replace the scouts like the Great Song Hai Dongqing. But their means of destruction are still very amazing, after suffering losses, as long as the Khitans see Hai Dongqing's shadow in the sky, their Hai Dongqing will also fly into the sky at an instant, if nothing else, they hope that their own Hai Dongqing can kill the Song people's scout Hai Dongqing. Also a clean sky for themselves.

The Khitan horn sounded outside the city, Tan Wei carefully poked his head out of the city wall, and the two personal soldiers immediately held the shield to protect his body tightly, Tan Wei wanted to look outside, but could only pass through the gap on the shield.

As expected. Two crossbow arrows shot up from under the city, nailed to the shield and shook slightly twice before falling, the soldiers were expressionless and lit two gunpowder bullets and threw them off the city wall without looking, and after two booms, seven or eight corpse-like people suddenly jumped up in the middle of the corpses everywhere, running backwards in desperation, these are the dead soldiers who quietly ambushed the field while they were fighting just now.

The Eight Ox Crossbow easily left four people behind. The rest of the people jumped up and down on the wasteland and disappeared into the distance.

The dead should not be scared away by gunpowder bullets so easily, these Khitans are already familiar with the power of gunpowder bullets, as long as they lie on the ground. Don't be blown up directly by gunpowder shells, those gunpowder shells are not much of a threat to themselves, after several brutal wars, the Khitans slowly adapted to the use of gunpowder shells on the battlefield.

The horn sounded again, and this time Tan Wei heard it clearly, this was the retreat of the Khitans. It seems that Xiao Dahu also knew that the reinforcements of the Song army had come. Seeing that the siege plan had come to naught, he simply withdrew his troops. If you get entangled with Yun Zheng's army in this place. The geographical location was too much of a loss for the Khitans.

The unobstructed Great Plains was originally the favorite battlefield of the Khitans, and once the cavalry began to charge, they would be invincible.

It's a pity that since the appearance of gunpowder shells, its explosive power, as well as the huge sound effect, has too great an impact on the war horse, once thousands of gunpowder bullets explode on the road of the cavalry charge, even the most docile war horse will scream and take the knight on its body to run wildly towards a place where there is no flame and loud noise, and that place, often ambush a large number of heavily armored Song infantry......

This is how the cavalry went from being invincible to a state of sorrow.

The Song army at the head of the city continued to splash the ice water that had just melted under the city, and the fire dragon team also sprayed the ice water evenly four or five zhang away from the city, so that the corpses under the city would be covered with a thin layer of ice, and it would not slowly thaw until the spring of the next year.

The scouts finally had a chance to return to the city, they carefully returned to the city from a distance in twos and threes, everyone was far away from those corpses, three days ago, because the scouts were curious to see the Khitans who died in the wasteland, and they were killed very badly by the Khitans disguised as corpses.

"Where did Liang Ji go? Why isn't he in Xiongyong Village? When Tan Wei heard that Liang Ji was no longer in Xiongyong Village, his brain was aching for a while, Xiao Dahu was not a fuel-efficient lamp, and it was impossible not to leave the broken army behind when retreating.

Seeing the general's ugly face, the scout hurriedly said: "General Liang said that the order given to him by the marshal is to take back the head of Wei Ge Ning Ling, so this goal must be achieved, and he went to find Wei Ge Ning Ling." ”

Tan Wei asked again: "Where is Brother Ning Ling now?" ”

The scout pointed to the east of Hequ City and said, "They have crossed the Yellow River from the ice and have not left, but are stationed in the warmer Nanshan. ”

In the face of the fierce attacks of the Khitans in the past few days, Tan Wei had almost forgotten that the army could only be used as a dead soldier, and now that he heard that the group of people had not left after suffering heavy losses, he was very worried that this was a trap laid by Xiao Dahu.

Wei Ge Ning ordered to kill Guo En, this is untenable in principle, even if it is killed, there is no need to use torture such as five horses to divide the corpse, and finally hang Guo En's body at the gate of the camp to attract hatred, Wei Ge Ning Ling knows that his subordinates are now in the weakest time, rest and recuperation is the most important, provoke the enemy for no reason, this is not done by a wise man.

What's more, Wei Ge Ningling's subordinates lack food and clothing, especially cotton clothes for the winter, since Guo En has provided them with food, grass and military weapons, there is no reason not to equip them with cotton clothes.

There are a lot of cotton clothes in Hequ City, and at least more than 100,000 sets are prepared in the tunnel, these are military supplies purchased through the Shuzhong Chamber of Commerce.

The weapons, grain and grass that Guo En transferred to Wei Ge Ning Ling in front of him were the ones he ordered Lang Tan to send with the army token.

Now that it has entered the cold winter, the wind on the wasteland is not able to rely on a strong body to carry it, no matter how fierce the soldiers, wearing single clothes to live in the wasteland, they will be frozen to death after a night, the horror here is not the cold, but the cold wind.

Tan Wei really didn't understand why the marshal sent Liang Ji, a wooden man, whether it was Jiang Zhe or Wu Jie, they should be the best candidates for leadership, why they just slapped Liang Ji over, such an obvious trap had to be plunged into it.

There are only 6,000 Jingxi troops in Hequ City, guarding the grain and military supplies here, and Lang Tan has already issued an order when he left Hequ City, and the defenders in the city must not leave the three miles of Hequ City, otherwise, no matter what the reason is, they will not be able to escape the severe punishment of military law.

Wei Ge Ning Ling stood in the cold wind and looked coldly at Xiao Dahu's envoy and said, "Give me cotton clothes or leather clothes, and I will honestly stay here as bait." ”

The messenger was a middle-aged scribe, dressed purely as a Song man, and although he was wearing a cotton robe, he was still shivering in the cold wind.

After listening to Wei Ge Ningling's words, he laughed, rubbed his hands and said: "Without the cotton clothes for the winter, you will honestly stay in this leeward place, with cotton jackets, God knows where you will go, since the prime minister of your country has not put your life and death in his eyes, why should we think about it?" ”

"In the past, Guo En was going to give us cotton clothes ......"

The messenger laughed and said, "Didn't you kill it already?" Or five horses splitting the corpse! ”

Wei Ge Ning Ling said expressionlessly: "I don't want to do this!" ”

"You've already done this, so you don't have much choice now, if you can let Song Jun get into this trap, maybe my king will give you some warm clothes." The envoy looked at Wei Ge Ning Ling playfully, as if he was looking at a dead man.

Wei Ge Ningling's clothes were very thin, his waist was still very straight, and he smiled weirdly: "Now that means that I have to stay here as a bait no matter what?" Whatever the reason for this, it is not possible to change our fate? ”

The messenger laughed, "I don't see any power that can allow you to escape. ”

Wei Ge Ning Ling suddenly reached out, tightly grabbed the messenger's neck, and lifted his thin body with one hand, while his other hand began to peel off the cotton clothes on the messenger's body, and at the same time, Zhang He, who was guarding nearby, also led a group of Xixia people who were covered with all kinds of cold to surround the one hundred and ten people brought by the envoy.

They didn't kill those Khitans, but just stripped off all the clothes on their bodies, and Wei Ge Ning ordered to tear off his clothes from the messenger and throw them to a subordinate covered in hay, and condescendingly looked at the messenger who was about to faint in horror and said: "Since they are all going to die, it is better to let the hundred and ten people survive first." ”

In a short period of time, the envoy was already shivering from the cold, and he barely managed to squeeze out a sentence and said, "The king will not let you go." ”

Wei Ge Ningling took out the wine jug and took a sip of spirits and said: "The old man is a good man like a tiger, why do you need to look at his face and die!" (To be continued)
