In the Liao military camp, the torches burning on the watchtower were extinguished one by one. The sound of horses' hooves, which had been like thunder around the camp, gradually calmed down. Only in front of the two armies were some wooden stakes erected, greased, and lit to make the open space between the two armies even brighter. Looking at the past, you can see where the cavalry is collecting the corpses of the dead in the short cavalry battle just now.
The Liaoren night patrol sentry team just circled between the battlefields, constantly appearing and disappearing in the light and darkness. Alert to a possible sneak attack by the Song army -- the riot just now made both sides tense their nerves. The Liao army felt that it was a little more hot, and the army that won a hundred battles actually let a small team rush through the camp!
But the camp finally calmed down. If this kind of commotion continues at night, I am afraid that the losses may be greater than the enemy's storming of the camp!
A few places to the east of the camp that Xiao Yan and they rushed past was a much larger camp. Not only is the gate higher, but the fence is deeper, and there are four places to open the door. Moreover, other camps are surrounded by watchtowers, and there is also a high watchtower in the center of this big camp. Under the watchtower, huge leather tents are connected. Outside the camp, there were already cavalry urgently transferred to patrol the circle. The other camps are closed doors, but this big village is fully open, and there are constantly heralds to riders to come out from the inside and convey orders in the night.
Here is the Liaoxing military capital, the north Liao southwest road capital, the Liao people call the big stone Linya Yelu big stone. The children of the Yelu family, with Hanlin into the eunuch, open a hard bow, run a wild horse, broad-minded, extraordinary bearing, Liao Daozong called it the Khitan Qianli Ju at the beginning, to this day, as long as it is a Liao person, who does not know this big stone forest tooth with both civil and military skills?
In the minds of the vast majority of Liao people in Xijin Mansion, this big stone forest tooth is the last pillar of the stormy Northern Liao court.
In the battle of Baigou River, Yelu Dashi sat in the Chinese army, leaving only the least number of troops for himself, attracting the most elite Yang Keshi of the Song army, and transferred the main force to the two wings, and defeated Liu Yanqing and other troops, and at the most dangerous time, Yang Keshi's Baiqi soldiers rushed to a place less than a hundred steps away from his banner! At that time, Yelu Dashi was already in hand, ready to fight, and had no intention of retreating.
After the two wings of the Song army collapsed, Yelu Dashi personally led the Yuan Blocker to counterattack, crossed the Baigou River, and chased the Song army for dozens of miles! During the battle, others did not take off their armor and horses, but only led their subordinates to shout a fierce battle. He has never left the front line, and now his battalion is at the forefront of the Xiongzhou line, not half a point behind his subordinates. On the other side, the commander of the Song army, Tong Guantong Xuanshuai, retreated to Hejian Mansion, more than two hundred miles to the south, which was almost equal to the distance Xiao Yan had traveled all the way from Zhuozhou to Xiongzhou.
Originally, to resist the Northern Expedition of the Song Army, the nominal commander of the whole army was Xiao Gan, the king of the Khitan, Xi, Han, and Bohai armies. But at this point, the soldiers of the Liao army who fought on the front line only recognized the orders of Dashi Linya!
At this time, this famous general of the last days of the Liao people was standing on the high place of the watchtower in the middle of the camp, looking at the chaotic fire on the wall of the Song military camp that Xiao Yan rushed to.
At this time, the commander who broke the elite Western Army of the Great Song Empire was only thirty-five years old. The muscles and bones are strong, the face is rough, and he has a good beard. In this night, the eyes are still as sharp as electricity. It's just that between the eyebrows, there is often a hint of melancholy.
He pressed the corner of his cloak and watched the changes in the Song military camp, but he was silent for a long time. In the night, his back was extremely broad and thick, and he stood there like a mountain.
Behind him, there stood several officers of the guards who were pressing bowls in the leather room. These officers, nominally guarding the Emperor of the Great Liao, were standing behind him respectfully at this time, and seeing that he had been standing for a long time, an officer stepped forward and said in a low voice: "Lin Ya, the southerners will not dare to fight back against us again............ Now that the vigilance has been weekly, the Song people dare to move, only to be beaten down, the time of Linya Station is long, go back to the camp tent to rest............"
Yelu Dashi turned his head and twitched the corners of his mouth to smile: "Guarded?" So how do you get a small team to rush through the camp? Fallen into the spirit of the whole army? Before our army pressed Xiongzhou, it was this sharp spirit that fought the whole battle! I'm embarrassed, now I'm talking about it, I'm really a good Khitan man! ”
One sentence provoked the faces of several Liao officers behind him to turn red, and they all stepped forward, and the wooden floor of the watchtower creaked: "Lin Ya!" Give us a soldier! Ren Linya refers to a Song military camp, if you don't break through the southern military camp, we will never come back to see Linya! ”
Yelu Dashi looked back and just looked at them coldly: "It's a bit promising............ You go down first, I'll get it back myself............ No matter who rushes to the camp, he is really a good man! ”
At this time, under the watchtower, there were already several horsemen rushing straight from the camp gate. In the camp, there are people asking questions at all levels. The person who came just said loudly: "King Xiao of the Fourth Army is here to see Lin Ya!" ”
Several horsemen and horses, the wind swept through the layers of guards in the middle of the camp, until they reached the bottom of the watchtower, and several knights surrounded a thin senior man wearing only a round-necked narrow-sleeved shirt. The thin middle-aged man looked ordinary, dressed ordinarily, and was not wearing armor. The dismounting movement is not fast, it looks ordinary and abnormal, just a pair of thin eyes, which looks restrained, cold and quiet. He dismounted and looked upstairs, where Jerodashi was above him and bowed to him.
This thin high school is the younger brother of the current Northern Liao Bingzheng Xiaohou, the nominal commander of the whole army in Northern Liao, the king of the four armies. But there was no trace of majesty and murderous aura on his body. This war also showed that it was very low-key, not only did the commander's power almost cede to Yelu Dashi, but even the Xi army under his direct leadership was also at the disposal of Yelu Dashi.
Xiao Gan smiled at the bottom of the watchtower, waved his hand and instructed the servants: "Wait for me here............ Lin Ya big tent, talk nonsense, I can't protect you and wait. I see? ”
There was a look of resentment on everyone's face, but they didn't dare to speak more. Xiao Gan is a noble and commander-in-chief. In this night, Jerod Dashi rushed over as soon as he was invited, and no one brought it with him. I really don't know what the king put up with this big stone forest tooth?
Yelu Dashi just stood on the top of the watchtower, watching Xiao Gan climb the ladder and go up in winter. When he arrived at the top of the watchtower, Xiao Gan crossed his hands and saluted: "See Lin Ya!" ”
Yelu Dashi returned the salute, but just waved his hand and ordered: "You all retreat!" I have something to discuss with King Xiao! ”
The officer behind him saluted and retreated. Above the watchtower, there were Xiao Gan and Yelu Dashi left. Xiao Gan had a smile on his face and asked, "Lin Ya, what's the matter?" Some people rushed through the camp, but occasionally there were small setbacks, who said that the war could be counted? You don't have to tighten the strings too much............ In a word, cherish this body for the country! ”
Yelu Dashi was silent, and after a long while, he slowly shook his head: "It's time to retreat............
Xiao Gan raised his eyebrows and said lightly: "Retreat?" ”
Yelu Dashi nodded silently, and looked at the lights of the Song military camp in the distance: "Morale is sharp, and it is already the limit to use it so far............ The lonely army hangs far away, and I can rest assured............ As long as there is a spark rising, I am afraid that it will be a prairie fire, and the space of Xijin Mansion will be empty............ I'm just thinking, who is the person who is charging into battle? From the north to the south, we forced our camp, and it was not necessary to do so. What matters now is the war between the Liao and Song dynasties? I've already taught that Tong Xuanshuai a lesson, and now it's time to go back to the town............ The situation is difficult, and now he finally takes a breath, the surnamed Tong no longer dares to boldly go north, and tens of thousands of corpses in Baigou River are enough for him to think about it for a while! Or is it better to look back at the roots............ As long as I'm here, people with a heart in Yandi can't turn over the waves! ”
Xiao Gan had a smile on his face, and said in a low voice: "The person who rushed into the formation has nothing to do with Guo Yaoshi. ”
Yelu Dashi was startled and grabbed the railing of the watchtower: "King Xiao, where did you know?" ”
The main force of the Liao army is outside, and Yelu Dashi is most worried about Guo Yaoshi! His nearly 10,000 victorious troops in Zhuoyi Erzhou were the greatest threat to the Liao army's retreat. Yelu Dashi transferred all the distant barricades out, and at least half of them were patrolling and covering the back, which also meant watching the back road. As long as the back road is safe, he originally wanted to take Xiongzhou according to the situation, and completely make the Northern Expedition Song army bold. The threat from the south was lifted, and then returned to Zhenyanjing, and turned to deal with the Jurchens.
If Guo Yao's teacher changes, then he has to return to his teacher immediately! The Chang Shengjun blocked the retreat of the Baigou River, and the last force of the Liao State may have to be destroyed south of the Baigou River!
He just looked at Xiao Gan seriously and asked word by word: "King, is this letter confirmed?" ”
Xiao Gan smiled: "Lin Ya, you are bent on the war, naturally I can't be idle, and I have to help Lin Ya share some of this back road............ Naturally, someone sued me for details. Since Lin Ya has decided to return to the division, then give me a soldier, let's divide the responsibilities, you go back to Yanjing to take charge, and I will go and clean up Guo Yaoshi............"
Yelu Dashi just looked at Xiao Gan, who seemed to be smiling, and only said in a deep voice after a long time: "The king is the commander of the army, how can I be called a soldier for the king?" The king wants to use whichever army and horses, he will go............ I don't dare to do anything about the division of duties, since Pharmacist Guo wants to make trouble, I'll clean him up! Or the king returns to Yanjing! ”
Xiao Gan shook his head, and his affection was also solemn: "Yanjing City wants you to go, but I can't do it." Hasn't Lin Ya heard about Li Lang? At this time, it's okay to break it. I can't disobey this sister, but Lin Ya can do it! These southern officials, when they get the opportunity, they always want to go south! You are a Khitan, I am a Xi person, and if you go to the side of the Nanren, you can only endure to the end. The current situation can only be Lin Ya inside, and I am outside! ”
The more Xiao Gan spoke, the more embarrassed he became, and finally smiled bitterly. Yelu Dashi just looked at him and didn't say a word.
In the current situation, everyone knows that military power is a qiē. Xiao Gan is dealing with Guo Yaoshi outside, and he must use a large army. Now that he is struggling to support the situation in Liao, how can he have less military power?
But Xiao Gan also has a point. In the words, Li Lang is the current governor of the imperial court and the king of Qishui County, Li Chuwen. It is also the head of the civil official team who supported Yelu Chun as the new emperor together with Yelu Dashi Xiao Gan. It is rumored in Yanjing that this Li Lang, who is like a crown of jade, is the face of Xiao Houpu's six daughters now! Yanjing's move, although Yelu Dashi and others are out of the army, but they all care, and now the news has reached the army, the Han officials in the south, who want to hold Xiao Houju hostage and attach to the south, is headed by this Li Chuwen! If he really wants to go back to the division to deal with them, Xiao Gan, who is the younger brother of Empress Xiao, can't move, and only he can move Yelu Dashi!
He Yelu Dashi is the eighth grandson of Emperor Abaoji!
After thinking about it, Yelu Dashi's figure trembled slightly. Although now he is leading a large army to press before Xiongzhou, he is only showing off his might in front of the Song army. But everyone understands that this is just a return to the past. Today, Da Liao has been leaking from all sides, and it is out of gas in all directions. There is only one person in his Yelu Dashi, how can he support this broken mountain and river?
Is it outside the house, or in the town?
Xiao Gan didn't speak, just looked around for a long time.
Suddenly there was the sound of horses' hooves below, and it was the officer of the night sentry cavalry, who answered the night order all the way into the camp. Roll off the horse under the watchtower, and run up in a hurry.
This voice alarmed the long-thinking Jelu Dashi, and in an instant, he cleaned up the hesitation. He straightened up majestically.
The officer ran up to the watchtower, and the nails rattled, but he just bowed and saluted.
"How?"
"Yu Linya, I found seventeen or eighteen corpses, nine war horses, and no living mouths. We're hurt............"
Yelu Dashi interrupted the officer's words at once: "I don't care about injuries! It's just your fault that you can't stop the people who rush into battle! I'll just ask, can you tell which soldier it is? ”
The officer just knelt on the ground for a long time and didn't dare to raise his head, and reported in a low voice: "I don't remember the war horse armor I found............ It's just, it's just ............"
"Just what?"
"Some people say that among the corpses, there is a known Changsheng army soldier, who was in Liaodong, when he was charging the Gao family rebels, everyone shared their lives............ It's just that these corpses are full of trauma, and no one dares to recognize ............"
Yelu Dashi shouted violently: "That's it! Retire! ”
This shout made the officer who was lying on the ground tremble, and he sweated profusely and retreated from the watchtower. Xiao Gan looked at Yelu Dashi quietly: "How is it?" ”
Yelu Dashi just looked at the king of the four armies, who looked very ordinary: "King, where did you spread the news to the king?" ”
Xiao Gan smiled faintly and pointed around: "Lin Ya, watch out for your ears and eyes............ Someone came to me at the risk of death, but I couldn't hurt them. The person who came just said that if you want to move, you will be fast, if Pharmacist Guo is ready, it will be difficult to start! In case Zhuoyi Erzhou fails to calm the chaos, but erodes, our army's Baigou River victory will come to naught, and the Song army can also take advantage of the chaos to go north again! ”
Yelu Dashi asked again in a deep voice: "King, which army do you want?" ”
Xiao Gan smiled: "How can you use the Han'er Army to quell the chaos?" I took the Xi army myself, and the Khitan army also gave it to me according to the bowl room. Go back quickly, but in seven or eight days, I pacified Zhuoyi Erzhou for Daliao! ”
Yelu Dashi just looked at Xiao Gan for a long time, shook his cloak violently, and strode down: "The king is the commander of the whole army, which troops and horses to transfer, it's not the king who has said the count!" It's just that the king remembers, this Da Liao must not be my own Da Liao! Perhaps, before leaving, I will come back with the sharp spirit of tonight's frustration! In front of the Song people, this bit of sharpness can't be lost! ”
