Intercepting the grain road, one of the usual tactics in war, that is, going deep into the enemy's territory and harassing the opponent's logistics and supplies, generally does not send a lot of horses, a lot of people, and it is easy to expose the traces, once it is detected, it may be wrapped in dumplings by the enemy, and the gains outweigh the losses. Because of the small number of people, most of the grain interception routes relied on surprise attacks to frighten the soldiers and civilians who transported the grain, and the team transporting the supplies was chaotic, and basically succeeded in more than half of it.

At this time, Xiao Tianlei's auxiliary team encountered such a group of Great Xia soldiers who intercepted the grain road, and the Great Xia soldiers suddenly killed, which really frightened the soldiers and people who transported grain and grass, and many people ran away. This team of Great Xia soldiers is about 500 people, as the first general, it is also a fierce general, I thought that the raid had been successful, and then as long as the grain and grass were burned, evacuate quickly, but unexpectedly, a vicious wild boar covered in armor suddenly rushed out.

Oh my god! What a big and fierce pig! The thought flashed through the general's mind, and he was about to resist it somehow, but he was already lifted into the sky with a steel mane along with his mount.

Xiao Tianlei and a few brothers rushed to kill, behind them were more than 100 Shanyue warriors, Xiao Tianyou's 300 cavalry also joined, and directly rushed these Great Xia soldiers who intercepted the grain road, and the others followed to cover up. After a short time, except for a few who escaped, most of these Bactria soldiers became prisoners.

"Brother clan, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to keep these grains and grasses, and when the grain and grass are sent to the camp, I will definitely repay you for your merits, and rewards are indispensable." Xiao Tianyou looked palpitating, patted his chest and assured.

"There's no need for rewards or anything, I'm not from Beiliang, helping you fight these soldiers of Great Xia can be regarded as a reward for watching the battle with you." Xiao Tianlei said very calmly.

Xiao Tianyou wanted to take the opportunity to win over Xiao Tianlei, Xiao Tianlei's words made some of his thoughts die again.

Xiao Tianlei was also roughly clear about Xiao Tianyou's thoughts, and he was a little wary in his heart. For Xiao Tianyou's praise and compliment, I know it clearly in my heart, don't look at what Xiao Tianyou said about how much credit this time, in fact, it is a small-scale encounter, and it is nothing at all for the whole war.

During this period of time, there has not been a big war, but both Beiliang and Daxia are harassing and testing each other in various ways, looking for each other's loopholes.

The main battlefield is still in Bailuyuan, Bailuyuan is very rich, for Beiliang, Bailuyuan is now an important place for grain production, Beiliang grain production land is not much, Bailuyuan can not be lost. For Great Xia, if you take Bailuyuan, it is equivalent to choking Beiliang's neck, Bailuyuan is still an excellent place to raise horses, if you get it in your hands, you can raise a lot of war horses.

However, it is not easy to capture Bailuyuan, Bailuyuan has been in the hands of Beiliang for many years, Beiliang has also established a city in Bailuyuan, divided into deer city, it is said that Beiliang recaptured Bailuyuan that year, the king of Beiliang at that time, roasted venison here, and shared it with a cadre of Wenchen generals. After many years of operation in Beiliang, Fenlu City has become an extremely complete military fortress, which is not so easy to break.

This time, Great Xia vowed to recapture Bailuyuan, and mobilized many generals, many of whom were famous generals with outstanding achievements.

Bei Liang is not short of generals, facing the enemy head-on, Bei Liang is not afraid, he is afraid of some conspiracies. Great Xia is full of talents, especially strategists, and every time some little-known strategists suddenly appear and use some unbelievable strategies to turn the tide of the war. This time, the Great Xia expedition to Beiliang, is also prepared for a long time, there must be some winning cards, before figuring it out, the Beiliang side is not good to move, to take the defensive strategy, the coach of the Beiliang side, is also the many generals in Beiliang, the most experienced in combat, and the most good at defending the veteran - Brother Fox Rong.

Brother Dahu Rong himself is also sitting in Fenlu City, putting on a stubborn posture, constantly strengthening the city defense every day, no matter how provocative the Great Xia side is, he just won't fight. For the Great Xia side, Fenlu City is undoubtedly a hard bone, it is extremely difficult to take such a fortress, and if it is attacked, it will have to pay an extremely heavy price, which is definitely not a good choice.

On some other fronts, the two sides fought very fiercely, and the generals led some soldiers to fight on the battlefield, either fighting head-on, or secretly ambushing, some won, some were defeated, some were in the limelight, and some lost their lives. As the main battlefield, Bailuyuan, except for some sporadic small-scale encounters, seems to be a little calm.

Of course, it's just calm on the surface, and there are a lot of battles in the secret, and in the past few days, I have caught a lot of Great Xia warriors who sneaked into Fenlu City, most of them want to open the city gate from the inside, these are just exposed, I don't know how many are hidden, and it is not necessary to say that some families in the city are privately connected with Great Xia.

The secret fighting in the city was fierce, and the Great Xia army outside the city, many generals led the troops to bypass Fenlu City, and continued to attack the rear, gradually controlling the large area around Fenlu City, if you cut off the supply of Fenlu City, it would be the best. You must know that Fenlu City, as a big city, consumes a lot every day, and the supply is cut off, not to mention those soldiers of Beiliang, the residents of the city have to make a fuss first, and some of them are still interested in Great Xia.

Xiao Tianlei has encountered several Daxia soldiers who intercept grain roads for a while, some of them are aimed at his team, and some of them are bumped into halfway, as for whether to make a move or not, it mainly depends on the mood. Now, those auxiliaries under Xiao Tianyou, when they encounter a surprise attack or something, they will not be frightened, but can look at the excitement relatively calmly, they have seen the power of the big wild boar with their own eyes, no matter how many soldiers you come, the big wild boar rushed forward, and they rushed to the ground, and they followed behind to get credit.

According to the accounts of those who fled back, they learned that in a team of auxiliary troops in Beiliang, there was a young general who rode a big wild boar, which was very fierce.

Time passed day by day, under the fierce offensive of the Great Xia army, Fenlu City has basically been isolated, and only a few supply lines are left in the rear, however, it is not easy for Great Xia to cut off these supply lines, because many generals and soldiers on the Beiliang side are concentrated on these supply lines, and the terrain of these supply lines is complex.

"Brother, why don't you come with me?" Xiao Tianyou asked.

"What do you say?" Xiao Tianlei asked rhetorically, but he knew that this time the delivery of supplies was fake, and the ambush of the Xia army was real, he could help Xiao Tianyou repel some of the invading Xia troops, but if he wanted to use him as a gunman, it would make him unhappy.

Xiao Tianyou was a little embarrassed, of course he wanted to borrow Xiao Tianlei and his party to deal with Xia Jun, but it didn't seem to work at all, Xiao Tianlei seemed to be a little stunned when he looked at it, he didn't know what to think all day long, he didn't say anything, in fact, he was a ghost and a ghost, and he knew everything. couldn't deceive Xiao Tianlei, so he had to give up and said, "Haha, since that's the case, I'll be escorted alone for my brother, and I'll not work for my brother." ”

Xiao Tianyou was really a little helpless, he secretly tried a lot of methods during this time, but Xiao Tianlei dealt with it lukewarmly. It is said that they are all young people, looking at the young generals of Daxia and Beiliang who are active on the battlefield, one by one on the battlefield they are excited and screaming, ******** think about making meritorious contributions, or they want to compete with others, and even dare to challenge some veterans, but Xiao Tianlei is a few, after reading it, there is no reaction at all, there is no competitiveness at all, there is no momentum of young people, it has always been a look of nothing to do with themselves, looking at the lively posture, and the feelings are really to "watch" the war!

The only thing that made Xiao Tianlei and the others more enthusiastic was about the seizure of some generals' weapons, armor, and mounts, and the generals who came to intercept the grain road, several of which were robbed by them, and they were simply a group of robbers! But he was not interested in rewards or anything, that is, he did not agree to join the Beiliang Army to participate in the war, and Xiao Tianlei also said that if he encountered any danger, let him ask for more blessings, they would not ask, Xiao Tianyou had no doubt about its authenticity, if something happened, he believed that Xiao Tianlei and his party would leave him without hesitation. Xiao Tianyou wondered in his heart, they are all descendants of the Lang Evil Xiao Clan, how could such a ruthless and murderous character come out?

Is Xiao Tianlei cold and murderous? Xiao Tianlei himself knows best, who makes this world so cold and realistic, even if the feelings in the previous life are rich, in this world, if you want to survive well, follow the path you want, live comfortably, and treat some things, you must be cold, besides, these things are not emotional.

Talking about family affection with Xiao Tianyou? is the same as the saying in the previous life, "talking about money hurts feelings, and talking about feelings hurts money", the so-called feelings are often just a fig leaf for interests, Xiao Tianlei and Xiao Tianyou have no feelings to talk about, just an exchange of interests. Whether it is in his previous life or in this life, he doesn't like to be so hypocritical, saying that everyone is of the same clan and clan, and in his heart it is another set, Xiao Tianlei disdains to cover it up, and directly expresses his attitude. It's just that because of some kinship, Xiao Tianlei is quite tactful, if Xiao Tianyou doesn't know each other, Xiao Tianlei can't say what method to teach him what his temper is.

Seriously, seeing such a large-scale war and seeing the deaths of many people, Xiao Tianlei has a lighter view of the life and death of people outside his circle, regardless of whether this person is related or not.

Xiao Tianlei knows very well that the path he wants to take may lead to the death of many people in the future, but so what? Xiao Tianlei just wants to do what he wants to do according to his own ideas, as for how much impact it will cause, it is basically not within his scope of consideration, as a self-contained person, it is impossible to stop his steps for others.

In fact, isn't every life alive like this, the variety of states on the battlefield can best reflect this, on the real battlefield, there is not so much blood boiling in film and television works, war is cruel and ruthless, and war does not have rules such as the victory of justice over evil, nor is there too much sentimentality, just a life passed away, that's all. Everyone is fighting for themselves, for money, for power, for fame and fortune, no one is nobler than the other, but the rhetoric is different, some people can speak lofty, for the country and the people, etc., and some people say it but it seems very humble, maybe just a full meal.

The more he watched, the more Xiao Tianlei felt that his original choice was right, and now he can watch the battle like a bystander, instead of fighting and struggling on the battlefield for some strange reasons, facing all kinds of helplessness, sure enough, being a man is to be a willful talent! However, willfulness requires the strength of willfulness in order to face a lot of criticism and difficulties. Xiao Tianlei has also been working hard for this, so he came to Beiliang to watch the battle, in addition to deepening his understanding of the war and making some preparations for possible future wars, it can be regarded as a psychological preparation for himself.

Xiao Tianlei has seen everything he wants to see from this war, of course, the war continues, and has entered a new stage, and the siege equipment in the military camp of Great Xia has been erected, indicating that the Great Xia army is about to carry out siege warfare.

Siege warfare can be said to be one of the most tragic forms of warfare, as an outsider, Xiao Tianlei understands that Xiao Tianyou is still a little defensive about himself, but it is not good for his group to go up to the city wall to watch the battle, he does not want to be mixed with it, and the scenes that can be seen are limited, so Xiao Tianlei plans to find a safe and convenient place to watch the battle.

On the top of a hill on the right side of the castle, you can enjoy a panoramic view. Xiao Tianlei thought of it, said hello to Xiao Tianyou, rode on the steel mane, took his own people, and climbed to the top of the mountain. I don't know when the Great Xia army will attack the city, so the group set up camp in a leeward open field behind the top of the mountain.

This mountaintop is indeed an excellent viewing point, and the Great Xia Military Camp and Fenlu City below are unobstructed, like a miniature model in front of him, Xiao Tianlei can see it clearly even if he does not use the Ice Archer template. At night, the sky is full of stars, the bonfires in the Daxia military camp, the lights in the Fenlu City, and the torches on the city walls constitute another wonderful scene.

After waiting leisurely for two days, in the early morning of the third day, Xiao Tianlei and the others had just had breakfast, and there were continuous drums in the Daxia military camp, listening to the huge sound, at least hundreds of war drums were beating at the same time.

Such a big movement, of course, indicates that the siege battle is about to begin, Xiao Tianlei and others packed up some, brought some snacks, tea, and just climbed to the top of the mountain, at this time, there were some noises below, Xiao Tianlei looked down, but it was some people who came up the mountain, several of them were dressed as scribes, and there were some guards, roughly divided into two waves, the clothes of the guards, respectively, the elite soldiers of Daxia and Beiliang, I think these scribes may be the strategists of both Daxia and Beiliang, as for the purpose of these people coming here, most of them are also watching the battle, Seeing that those guards were still holding some Go, wine, and the like, presumably these strategists came to Yaxing and wanted to watch the battle while playing chess.

Those who came up the mountain also saw Xiao Tianlei and others on the top of the mountain, as well as a group of Shanyue warriors dressed as guards below, they were also stunned, their faces changed slightly, and the guards on both sides were on guard, but those scribes showed a thoughtful look, and a few people muttered a few words in a low voice, and a guard stepped forward and asked loudly: "Who are you waiting for, what are you doing here?" ”

Xiao Tianlei glanced at those people, made a look, and motioned for them to go to the open space on the other side of the mountaintop, the area of the top of the mountain was quite large, enough to accommodate many people, and then he didn't care anymore, and sat on a big stone in a comfortable posture and looked down.

"Bold, do you know who these are? How dare you be so rude! The guards looked very annoyed, and as soon as he spoke, the guards also looked unkind, and their weapons were slightly unsheathed.

Xiao Tianlei didn't bother to talk nonsense with these people, he whistled, a few heavy steps and the clanging sound of chains, and the steel mane slowly walked up from behind the mountain and lay on Xiao Tianlei's side.

The crowd was shocked when they saw the steel mane, and the guards persuaded them a few words, but two of the scribes strode to the top of the hill, and the rest followed, and the guards laid out the chessboards, drinks, and cushions, and the scribes knelt down and began to play chess and drink each other, and talk in whispers.

Xiao Tianlei didn't care about these people, the Great Xia army below had already left the camp, lined up in a neat array, pushed many equipment, and slowly approached Fenlu City. (To be continued.) )
