The Liaoguo East Route Army has been cowering on the south bank of the Juma River more than 20 miles east of Baxian County, and the large camp is composed of more than 5,000 large tents.

At present, the Eastern Route Army can still support food for two months, but the forage is about to bottom out, and it can only support 20 days at most.

The Liao army waited every day for rescue and support from the other side, and these days, they learned from the soldiers who swam across the river that a dam was being built on the other side, which gave them another glimmer of hope.

At night, a thousand sentries patrolled three miles from the camp as usual, and the guards were so vigilant that no one dared to sleep lazily in the middle of the night, and there was one every fifty paces.

Because the Song army rangers would come to harass almost every night, the patrol and the Liao army were tired and annoying, Xiao Han had to make a rule, if only a small number of cavalry harassed, the patrol would fire a whistle, and only when the cavalry of the brigade came to kill, they would launch rockets.

At the time of the two watches, more than 100 black shadows suddenly rushed to the southwest corner, and the dense arrows shot at several Liao army outposts, and the Liao army patrol posts could not dodge, and they were hit by arrows one after another.

At the same time, more than 100 cavalry were killed in the northwest corner, and they attacked from the other side, and the two Song army rangers shot more than 60 patrol posts in a row, and there were continuous ringing in the air, but there was no commotion in the Liao army patrol posts.

They were all accustomed to it, and every night, the Song cavalry would leave after a period of harassment, and all the patrols could not leave their posts at will.

But there is a loophole hidden in it, once too many Liao army patrols are killed by the Song army, there will be a big gap, which will be replenished when the guard is changed at the third watch.

Xiao Han's slaves also thought of this, so when there was a sound around them, thousands of guards on duty stationed in the camp immediately became vigilant, stretched out their bows and arrows, and guarded the side of the trench to prevent the Song army from sneaking up at night.

The patrol post on the west side was solved by the Song army, and there was a big gap, at this time, three large trebuchets drove silently from the west, 10,000 cavalry guarded on both sides, the four large wheels of the trebuchet were wrapped in thick cloth, and the sound was extremely low when walking, and under the cover of night, it would only be discovered if it was close to a hundred steps.

The large trebuchet drove until it was two hundred steps away from the Liao army camp before it slowly stopped, although thousands of Liao troops were waiting for it, but the Liao soldiers could not see the trebuchet two hundred steps away, even if it was a cavalry, it had to be seen clearly dozens of steps away.

The trebuchet creaked open, and the Song soldiers put a huge fireball on the throwing bag, the fireball was made of cloth strips, soaked in fire oil, and a soldier lit the fireball with a fire fold, and when the fireball was full, it shot out with a bang, and three blazing fireballs shot towards the Liao army camp.

Thousands of Liao soldiers saw the light of the fire, and then three groups of flames rushed towards the camp, and the three fireballs landed dozens of steps away from the camp, and bounced high and rushed into the camp.

Immediately after the second round, three fireballs shot out and also rushed into the camp.

The Liao army camp was in chaos suddenly, the Song army threw a fireball is the signal, and the 10,000 Song army cavalry ambushed in the east quickly killed, and instantly rushed into the Liao army camp, one by one torches were thrown into the camp, and the horse circle of the war horse was also opened, and tens of thousands of war horses rushed out and fled to the south.

The Liao army camp was full of raging fires, thick smoke billowed out, 30,000 Liao army soldiers cried and scattered and fled, at this time, 10,000 cavalry from the south also killed, rushed into the Liao army camp, ran and slashed in the camp.

At this time, Fanning led 30,000 cavalry to surround the Liao army camp on the periphery, on the one hand, to collect the Liao army's war horses, and on the other hand, to annihilate the remnants of the soldiers who escaped from the camp.

The fire in the camp became bigger and bigger, and the cavalry of the Song army also withdrew, and the 30,000 Liao troops were either killed by the Song army, or were ambushed by the Song cavalry on the periphery when they broke through the siege, or they could not escape at all and died in the fire.

Yelu Hongji on the other side rushed to the Juma River when he heard the news, and stared at the fire on the other side in amazement, his dam was destroyed by the attack of the Song army warships last night, and today, the Liao army camp on the other side was caught in a raging fire.

Thinking that the 50,000 East Route Army was wiped out, and that the West Route Army was also wiped out, he racked his brains to bring the team back, and saw that there was a little hope, but in the end it was shattered, but the dignified Liao Army was played like a dog by the Song Dynasty Navy and died in humiliation.

The more Yelu Hongji thought about it, the more unbearable it became, he was so angry that a mouthful of blood spurted out, and he fell down on his back, so shocked that the surrounding guards stepped forward to rescue.

Early the next morning, dozens of soldiers who jumped across the Juma River reported to Yelu Hongji that they had been attacked, and the main general Xiao Hanjianu died in the chaos, and finally the 30,000 Liao army was finally wiped out.

Yelu Hongji let out a long sigh and ordered the construction of the dam to be stopped, all the people were sent home, and the 100,000 army also returned to Youzhou.

Yelu Hongji only felt exhausted, and even Yizhou didn't want to ask for the time being.

In fact, he already had the idea of making peace with the Song Dynasty in his heart.

If the peace negotiations were successful, the Song army would evacuate Yizhou, evacuate Juehua Island, and return the nobles who had been taken captive at the time of the destruction of the city of Tokyo and the Liao soldiers who had surrendered.

Three days later, Yelu Hongji issued an edict that Zhang Xiaojie, the prime minister of Beifu, be a special envoy to go to the Song State to sue for peace and renew the alliance between the two countries.

...........

Liu Kui, disguised as a Goryeo businessman, arrived in Liaoyang Prefecture, Tokyo.

After the last time the Song army attacked Liaoyang Mansion, dozens of undercover scouts were left, and at the same time, a group of Han people who had been captured by the Liao State for a short time and were eager to return to the Great Song Dynasty were developed as spies.

These Han Chinese have a characteristic: their children have returned to the Great Song Dynasty with the Song army, on the one hand, they satisfy their desire to return their children to their homeland, and on the other hand, these children are also hostages, and they guarantee the loyalty of their parents to the Great Song Dynasty.

Liu Kui brought a few retinues into the city of Tokyo, which has been restored to its former prosperity, but the palace has not yet been rebuilt, and there are still many Khitan aristocratic mansions that are closed, and the official office is still in ruins, all of which implies that this city has suffered a military disaster not long ago.

Liu Kui came to Dongdajie and found a north-south inn, in Chinese and Khitan languages, this is it.

Liu Kui walked into the inn, and a man saw that he was dressed in Korean, so he asked in broken Goryeo, "The guest is from Goryeo?" ”

Liu Kui smiled, "Use Chinese!" Your shopkeeper's surname is Mo? ”

"Exactly! Does the guest know my shopkeeper? ”

"I have heard the name for a long time, you tell him that the guests from Qingzhou are here."

The guest in Qingzhou was a code word, indicating that he was from the Great Song Dynasty, the guy's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly clasped his fists and whispered: "In Xia Wang Wensheng, he was born in the Laizhou Navy. ”

Liu Kui suddenly understood, it turned out that this guy was also an undercover scout left by Song Jun.

He nodded, "Go talk first!" ”

The two walked into the inn, the shopkeeper Mo Ting greeted him, he was not Song Jun, he was a Song Dynasty businessman in Baxian County, living in Liaoyang Mansion, opening an inn to make a living, his eldest son Mo Zhan had returned to the Great Song Dynasty with Song Jun, the inn only had him, his wife and his youngest son, Song Jun installed three spies in his inn as partners.

Hearing that it was from Qingzhou, Mo Ting enthusiastically brought Liu Kui into the shopkeeper's room, Liu Kui said lightly: "I am the Sima of the Staff Office under the account of Xiao Fan Xiang, called Liu Kui, and I should also be responsible for the part of the shopkeeper Mo." ”

Mo Ting heard that the person who came was Liu Sima, the intelligence leader of the Song Army, and he hurriedly said: "It turned out that Liu Sima was here, and the villain was rude!" ”

Liu Kui smiled slightly, "I have seen the information written by Shopkeeper Mo, it is very detailed, and Xiao Fan Xianggong is also very praised, you have worked hard here." ”

"We're ashamed that we haven't got really important information yet!"

Liu Kui pondered for a moment and asked, "I want to go to Beijing, maybe lead the way for me?" ”

Mo Ting hesitated for a moment and said, "Is Liu Sima going to find Yelu Yixin?" ”

They had been tasked with collecting information about Yelu Yixin, so Mo Ting guessed that Liu Kui wanted to go to Yelu Yixin.

Liu Kui nodded, "Exactly, is there any news of him?" ”

Mo Ting hurriedly said: "It's a coincidence, Yelu Yixin only arrived in Tokyo the day before yesterday to inspect the progress of the palace repair, I'm afraid that the day after tomorrow will go to Youzhou to see the emperor of Liao." ”

Or is it really a coincidence, Yelu Yixin is in Tokyo, Liu Kui frowned, "How do you know Yelu Yixin's itinerary?" ”

"Qiqi Liu Sima, when we collected information about Yelu Yixin before, we met his coachman, and his coachman is also Han, called Han Ping, this time he followed Yelu Yixin to Tokyo, and then came to me for a drink, so he knew Yelu Yixin's itinerary."

Liu Kui took a few steps and said, "I want to see Yelu Yixin, do you think it's feasible?" ”

Mo Ting thought for a while and said: "I suggest that Liu Sima don't see Yelu Yixin first, you can see his fake son first, called Yelu Shan, and his Han name is Wang Shan, in fact, he is a Han man, proficient in music and juju, and is deeply loved by Yelu Yixin. ”

"Is this Wang Shan reliable?"

"All he has in his eyes is money, so let's put it this way! As long as you are willing to give money, even if it is the red pen in Yelu Hongji's imperial study, he will find a way to steal it for you. ”

"That's good! You go and contact him first, and if he is willing to introduce Yelu Yixin to me, I will give him three hundred taels of gold, and you can tell him that I am the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty. ”

"No problem, I'll contact him today."
