Chapter 253: Hearing the Drums and Thinking of the Good General

Qin Guan didn't know that the Emperor of Liao was discussing gathering troops available to the whole country to eliminate him.

Just after dinner, Li Xuan came over to Qin Guan and said, "Dashuai, let me ask you, this time we have a big victory over the 20,000 troops of the Liao State, do we have to report to the official family." ”

Qin Guan asked Li Xuan to bring a cup of hot tea, and said casually, "You can report it truthfully." ”

Li Xuan's face was entangled: "But there are not many carrier pigeons in my hands, at most there are only enough for two at most, I am afraid that it will be of great use in the future, if they are released now, I am afraid that the contact with the capital will be cut off at that time." ”

In the past, the carrier pigeon communication was back and forth, but now they go deep into the hinterland of Liao, and the carrier pigeon can only send a letter one way without returning, Li Xuan reported on their march, but Qin Guan now knows nothing about the situation in Zhao State.

I have to sigh that ancient communication is too backward.

But he couldn't solve it.

Qin Guan thought for a while and said, "There may be a lot of use in the future, so let's remember it this time, and when we have to report it in the future, we will report it together." ”

Li Xuan looked at Qin Guan and asked, "Dashuai, can we really hit the Zhongjing of Liao." ”

Qin Guan smiled and said, "I can definitely hit it." ”

After resting for two days, the soldiers of the Northern Route Army filled up their fuel again, and Qin Guan ordered to collect the supplies from Bei'an Prefecture and then march to Zezhou.

In fact, the supplies he brings now are enough for the army for two or three months, but if he is prepared, he has now got 10,000 slave soldiers and countless war horses.

Bei'an Prefecture is more than 200 miles away from Zezhou, and it took two days for the North Road Army to arrive, but when they arrived in Zezhou, they found that the entire Zezhou City had no defense at all, and Qin Guan directly occupied Zezhou.

When the Northern Route Army entered Zezhou and found that the entire city was empty, Qin Guan guessed that the Liao State should have made new preparations, and immediately sent scouts to the direction of Yuzhou to investigate the news.

Two days later, the scouts came back to report that at the Luming Mountain Pass, a dangerous pass from Zezhou to Yuzhou, the Liao army stationed 30,000 troops, and the Liao general Xiao Qiye commanded the troops, blocking the front road of Qinguan.

Qin Guan frowned: "You can find it out." ”

The scout captain said: "Commander, we first caught a few Liao people, asked about the situation in front, and then secretly went to check, there is indeed a large army stationed in Luming Mountain, and the number is huge. ”

Qin Guan waved them down.

Originally, he thought that before arriving at Dading Mansion, there should be no army in the Liao State to stop him, but now there is an army of 30,000 people, whether it was put together temporarily, or whether the emperor of the Liao State took out the last Imperial Forest Army, Qin Guan didn't know.

Standing in the courtyard, Qin looked at the gloomy sky and muttered, "It's going to change the sky again, I'm afraid it's going to be another heavy snow." ”

As he spoke, the snowflakes began to fall one by one.

And then more and more intensively.

In a short time, the yard that had been cleaned was covered with white.

It's a lot of snow.

Originally, he was going to kill all the way to Yuzhou, but now it seems that he can only wait here.

Luming Mountain Defense Line.

Xiao Tzuye looked at the map and frowned, he had already received information that Qin Guan was staying in Zezhou City, and the defense line he had arranged in the Luming Mountain generation could indeed block Qin Guan's road, the road in Luming Mountain was narrow, and if you wanted to pass through, you had to pass through the pass, but Qin Guan was not the only one to go, Luming Mountain was only the closest road to Yuzhou.

Xiao Tzuye asked the deputy general: "You say, what if he doesn't go to Luming Mountain, isn't our defense done in vain." ”

The deputy general said: "Dashuai, if you want to reach Dading Mansion, it is the closest to go to Yuzhou, unless they pass through Mameng Mountain, but now that the snow is closing the mountain, there is no way at all, and then there is a detour to the Yixun River, enter the Karaqin grassland and then detour back to Dading Mansion, this section of the road is at least thousands of miles, and now there is heavy snow everywhere, the grassland is difficult to walk, I believe Qin Guan will not be so stupid to take that road." ”

In fact, Qin Guan is also worried about this problem now.

It snowed heavily for three days in a row, and it would fall for a while from time to time, and the snow was getting thicker and thicker, and there was no way to march at all, so Qin Guan simply stationed here and didn't leave.

Qin Guan's side was in a stalemate because of the weather and roads, but in the territory of Zhao State, two major battles began at the same time.

On the front line of Yangzhou, Yelu Chongxin sent heavy troops and began to launch a fierce attack on Cao Bin's defenders, and the Zhao army made every effort to block it, and on the border between Chuzhou and Yangzhou, the two sides launched several tragic battles, and the Zhao army won less and lost more in general.

Yelu said: "Now that the Zhao army is tired, I am ready to attack with the whole army, encircle it in three ways, and take the Zhao army in one fell swoop today." ”

The generals took the orders and left.

The general offensive of more than 100,000 troops of the Liao State was huge, and the entire battlefield stretched for more than ten miles, and the sound of fighting was everywhere, and the blood shed by the soldiers of the two countries stained the land red.

On the Flying Fox Ridge, a Liao army surrounded a remnant army of the Zhao State, and the general He Si held a big knife, pointed to a general in front of him who had been stained with blood, and said: "Hu Yansheng, my lord is benevolent and heroic, and he unifies the world, why not surrender quickly in order to become rich." ”

Hu Yansheng's face was grim, and he reprimanded angrily: "Bullshit Renming and heroic, the Liao State invaded my Zhao realm for no reason, killed my people, and wanted me Hu Yansheng to bend his knees, and first asked me if I would agree to the gun in my hand." ”

"You don't have the strength to fight back now, why bother to be obsessed, soon our army will break through Jinling, the capital of Zhao State, and capture your emperor alive, and then you will also kneel at the feet of my Daliao." Hess said.

Hu Yansheng's momentum did not decrease, and he said loudly: "Zhenyuan General Qin Guan, now he is leading 40,000 troops in the territory of Liao, if he doesn't kill you like this, maybe he has already captured the emperor of Liao." ”

Hess was furious and yelled: "Obsessed, kill." ”

Hu Yansheng was louder than him, "Kill!" With a burst of shouts, he immediately rushed towards the Liao cavalry who surrounded him with the only dozens of remaining horses.

Fight bravely to kill the enemy, and spill blood on the battlefield.

And in Zhengzhou, the same big war is unfolding.

Xiao Chucai led 120,000 Liao troops to attack Li Jilong's 150,000 defenders, and this battle was also very tragic.

Two days later, Li Jilong was defeated, and the 150,000 army lost nearly half, and only took 780,000 remnants of the army and retreated to Yingchang Mansion.

The battle between Yelu Chongxin and Cao Bin finally ended in the defeat of Cao Bin, and only 180,000 of the 250,000 forbidden troops remained, retreating to Yangzhou City.

At the same time, in Chuzhou, the Liao people captured tens of thousands of boatmen and craftsmen, and made every effort to build and repair ships, in order to form a fleet and fight across the Yangtze River.

The situation in the country has taken a sharp turn for the worse, which makes everyone in Zhao State worried.

Jinling City is in danger, people are panicking, and some people have already begun to move their families to the south.

At this time, many people were talking about it, and they didn't know when General Qin would be able to break through the Liao State and solve the domestic crisis.

At this moment, the emperor of Zhao is the same, just as the so-called hearing the drum and thinking about the good general, the emperor now misses Qin Guan very much.
