Chapter 40: Moon Lake Falls
After determining the battle plan, Bai Qitong Guò Xinying sent an order to a small leader who was stationed in Western Xia and was responsible for liaison with the Western Xia military, asking him to bribe the Western Xia military to find a way to let the Jin army that intercepted the Great Song mission attack Moon Lake and use it as their temporary station, and asked this small leader to keep the matter secret.
Although he was puzzled by the order of the big boss, the little leader still meticulously carried out the order of Bai Qi, who was in full swing among the black eagles at this time.
It is the current backstage of Black Hawk who is responsible for supplying grain and grass to the Jin army, the Northwest Town Army of Western Xia, so this small leader's actions are very smooth, and the general of the Northwest Town Army who accepted the bribe thought that Black Eagle was dissatisfied with the loss of Moon Lake control power, so he made this small action.
Soon, an urgent letter was sent by the Western Xia scouts to the Jin army that was about to enter the northwest region, and the Western Xia general built in the letter that the Jin army occupied an oasis where a group of horse thieves were entrenched as a temporary station, and the letter stated that the oasis was rich in water and grass, and could provide at least half of the forage for the military horses, the key was that the oasis was in a very good geographical location, stuck on the road that the Great Song Dynasty envoys must pass through to the north, and it was not far from the northwest border of the Western Xia, with a flat river in the middle, and it was very convenient to transport grain and grass.
After studying the map, several generals of the Jin army were very satisfied with the construction of the Western Xia army, and immediately finalized the goal and route of the march, and as for the horse thieves entrenched in the oasis, the Jin army did not pay any attention to it.
Jin Guotie rode over Yin Mountain from Qingshikou and rushed straight to Moon Lake.
The team of the four horse thieves stationed in Moon Lake, as well as the merchants of Black Hawk Town, were unprepared. was ridden with dumplings by two thousand gold national railways.
After a not-so-fierce battle, not only were the garrisons of the four horse thieves wiped out. Even the merchants of Black Hawk were not spared, and they died cleanly. There was only one person who was lucky enough to get out of the encirclement and escaped with his life, and that person was the second leader of the black wolf, Luo Busan,
After the bold Rob Sang escaped from the siege, he did not flee immediately, he actually sneaked back to the Moon Lake at night.
From afar, he saw that the Jin army, with thousands of heads of horse thieves and merchants, had piled up a large Jingguan in front of the oasis, while the corpses were dragged to the desert and abandoned.
Rob Sang brought out the news. Immediately made the four horse thieves excited.
Bai Qi, who was in full swing, shouted and initiated a meeting of the Northwest Horse Thieves to discuss the matter.
Bai Qi chose the location of the alliance in Golden Scorpion Town, the old nest of the Golden Scorpion.
Golden Scorpion Town is a town with the best geographical location in the northwest region except for Moon Lake, these two towns are one southeast and one northwest, holding the two throats of the Silk Road in the Western Regions.
There is no oasis in Golden Scorpion Town, but there are a few sweet wells in the town that never dry up, nourishing this scorching hot town.
Due to the proximity of Golden Scorpion Town to the remnants of the Tianshan Mountains in the north, it is moistened by the melting water of the ice and snow on the Tianshan Mountains in summer. In the north of Golden Scorpion Town, there is a large area of barren grassland, barely able to graze horses.
For the current Jin State, the forces in the northwest are based on various reasons. There is a certain hostility towards them.
The Mongols, who were gradually unified and strong, had long been dissatisfied with the oppression of the Jin State, and the Western Liao State had a hatred for the Jin State to destroy the country, and the Western Xia had long been wary of the Jin State that had destroyed the Northern Song Dynasty. The Tibetans have no hatred for the Jin people, but the black wolf is a gang of horse thieves with a clan as the core. The fifty clansmen who died on the shore of Moon Lake in this battle almost made the Black Wolf tribe cry. Especially the second leader of the black wolf, Luo Busang, most of the subordinates he led were his brothers and nephews, and this accident almost wiped him out!
It is said that after Rob Sang fled back, in order to pray for the black wolf to avenge him, he smashed a few pieces of the green bricks in the black wolf's gathering hall.
Therefore, this time the alliance has the highest call for revenge against the people of the Jin country, but the black wolf.
In the northern wasteland of Golden Scorpion Town, thousands of horse thieves formed a huge circle, and the burly and dark-skinned black wolf was hoarsely agitating everyone in the middle of the circle, urging everyone to teach this group of Jin people a lesson.
The black wolf doesn't seem to be good at words, but it's just those few words, and there are few listeners below.
When the black wolf walked down disappointedly, Bai Qi slowly stood up, he was not tall, and he didn't look strong, but as he stood up, thousands of horse thieves immediately fell silent.
Bai Qi slowly walked to the center of the clearing, and said slowly: "Originally, according to my meaning, I don't approve of a hard encounter with the people of the Jin Kingdom, who are we?" If it sounds good, it's called a horse gang, but if it's not good, it's called a horse thief, how can a horse thief and the army have a hard time? These Jin people only come to the northwest for a temporary matter, and after finishing things, they will always leave, and when they leave, isn't Moon Lake still ours? ”
Bai Qi's words suddenly made the leaders of the horse thieves below nod their heads, and the black wolf who looked at it was depressed for a while, and Luo Busan's eyes staring at Bai Qi were even more red in an instant, and he couldn't help but stand up and scold angrily, but the black wolf grabbed him and glared at him fiercely, so he gave up.
But this is, Bai Qi suddenly changed his words, "But if I think about it carefully, we really can't count this matter like this." ”
"You know why this team of golden soldiers came, right? They were to intercept the envoys of the Song Kingdom, I have heard that the envoys of the Song Kingdom brought a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry in order to marry Mongolia, which is the treasure taken out by the rich Song Kingdom. ”
Bai Qi's words suddenly made the horse thieves' eyes light up.
He continued: "However, with this group of golden soldiers, is it our turn to rob the envoys of the Song Kingdom?" ”
"Of course not! Therefore, if we want to get our hands on the gold, silver and jewelry of the Song envoys, we must first take down or drive away this group of gold soldiers, otherwise once the jewelry falls into the hands of this group of gold soldiers, there will still be our share. ”
"In the past, I also thought about this matter, the cavalry of the two thousand Jin Kingdom is not so easy to deal with, even if we gather all the horse thieves in our northwest and collide head-on, it is not necessarily an opponent."
"But today they robbed Moon Lake, and it was an opportunity for us."
"If this group of Jin people set up camp in the wasteland, the camp must be simple, and they dare not rest at ease, they will definitely reconnoiter and ride out, and it will be difficult for us to find an opportunity. But they seized Moon Lake, where the camp was strong and comfortable, and within a few days, these Jin cavalry would let their guard down. ”
"What's more, Moon Lake is our Black Hawk's former home, who knows it better than we do?" Saying this, a mysterious smile flashed on Bai Qi's face.
After a pause, he continued: "What's more, if we want to deal with the cavalry of the Jin State, we can completely cooperate with the Song State Mission. ”
At this time, the leader of the pony thief group couldn't help but ask, "Song State envoy group?" What was the use of those Great Song officials? ”
Bai Qi smiled: "You don't know this, in order to escort this envoy group, the Great Song Dynasty not only sent three hundred elite guards, but also hundreds of Great Song martial arts people volunteered to follow the escort, of course we don't want to cooperate with those Great Song officials who don't have the strength of the Japanese women, nor do we want to cooperate with those Praetorian Guard masters, we want to cooperate with those Great Song martial arts people who volunteer to escort the envoys." ”
"Most of the martial arts in the world are passed down from the hands of the Han people, so don't underestimate the martial arts people of the Han people."
At this time, someone asked in a rough voice: "Eagle Flying Master, does this Han martial arts dare to cooperate with our horse gang?" ”
Bai Qi said: "They don't dare and they dare, the Great Song Dynasty envoys went north to Mongolia, what are they most afraid of, of course it is the Jin Guotie cavalry, what is the second thing they are afraid of, it must be our horse gang, now the horse gang is going to fight with the Jin Guotie cavalry, and the Song people have not dreamed and woken up with laughter?" As long as you sue them, if he doesn't help, we won't fight, you see if they come. ”
"Don't worry about this, leave it to me Eagle Fly, if the Song people don't come, I'll take the lead for everyone."
"Okay, I've said everything that needs to be said, should we do this vote? Everyone has the final say. ”
As soon as Bai Qi's words fell, Luo Busang in the black wolf team was the first to raise his hand and shouted: "Dry!" ”
After a moment's hesitation, the Golden Scorpion and the leader of Humor all gave a cry of agreement.
Under the leadership of the four horse thieves, most of the horse thieves expressed their willingness to do this vote.
There were only a few horse thieves who were too weak, and they felt that even if they won the Great Song envoy group, they would have nothing to do, so they were unwilling to participate and withdrew from the alliance. (To be continued......)
