"But what about you?"

"You're really that clean, you know how many people are eyeing you now. Especially that Han Bei, he has already sent someone to Bianliang City to find the place where Su Shi lives and find evidence of your contact with him. ”

"Once you've been found, do you think there's still a place for you in the sect?"

Faced with Xie Fanyun's several questions, Ye Lengchan's mouth opened and opened, and she didn't know how to explain it.

"Okay, your filial piety is known to my father, but I know better than anyone what my body is, but it is not the Holy Hand that can solve it. You don't have to think too much about this matter, if you really want your father-in-law to relax and become better, you can go to Bianliang again and personally kill the person named Su Shi to prove your innocence. ”

"In this way, I can also rest assured that the White Lotus Sect will be in your hands, how about it?"

"Father-in-law, this Su Shi..."

"What? You don't want to? Or do you think that I, my father-in-law, don't recognize the White Lotus Sect that gave birth to you and raised you? Seeing that Ye Lengchan still wanted to excuse herself, Xie Chuanyun said with a change in her face.

"My daughter didn't dare. Daughter... So he set off for Bianliang and killed that Su Shi. ”

Ye Lengchan is a person of filial piety, she doesn't want her father-in-law to have heartache because of herself, and her body will make it worse, so she can only agree first.

"Well, my Father, is waiting for your good news. Chan'er rest assured, as long as you kill that Su Shi, there is no handle in the hands of others, and at that time you will be the most powerful contender for the Holy Lord. As a father, I am still waiting to see the White Lotus Sect flourish in your hands. ”

Xie Chuanyun's face finally again

With a smile.

Ye Lengchan had no choice but to leave the small courtyard and take Qiao Yu'er and Gu Xiang'er to embark on the road to Bianliang City again.

......

Thousand Worm Mountain.

The Liao army has been besieging the mountain for five months.

From April to the end of September, see that October is approaching.

From late spring to late autumn, we see that winter is coming.

After more than five months of siege, Xiao Ying can be described as miserable.

More than 100,000 troops surrounded the mountain, and the consumption of each day was a huge number.

In order for these hundreds of thousands of troops to be able to complete their military tasks, the Liao State paid a lot of price for this. Half of the grain depots in Zhongjing have been emptied.

Even so, at such a great cost, there was no progress in the war. On the contrary, there were many casualties.

In the case of mosquito bites alone, in more than five months, tens of thousands of soldiers were injured to varying degrees and had to retreat to the rear to recuperate.

During the siege, Xiao Ying also tentatively launched several attacks, wanting to see how much combat power Su Shisuo, who was surrounded in the mountains, still had.

It was a few temptations, and thousands of soldiers were lost.

It seems that the Sushi part of the mountain is not affected by the harsh environment at all.

I really don't know how they get along with the mosquitoes that can be used to make a face when they enter the mountains.

Also, don't so many people need to eat when they stay in the mountains?

Without supplies for a long time, how can they ensure that they have enough physical strength?

After several temptations, he didn't make any money at all, so Xiao Ying could only decide to continue the siege. But at this time, the surrounded Su Shi Department

On the contrary, it is energetic.

Several counterattacks were launched in a row.

The choices were all at night, when the Liao army's defense was at its weakest, the Su army rushed out of the mountains, and after a random killing, they retreated back before the reinforcements arrived.

After inflicting heavy losses on the Liao army, Xiao Ying and Zhang Jian met together, and they discovered an amazing fact, that is, Su Shi's army was capable of killing a corner of the encirclement and escaping.

But they did not choose to leave, but after inflicting heavy losses on the Liao army, they retreated to the mountains.

This clearly means that there is no intention to leave.

So what do they want to do?

Could it be that they are fighting the idea of these hundreds of thousands of Liao troops in their own hands?

The result was really scared of Xiao Ying and Zhang Jian.

To say that others do not have such courage and such ability. But Su Shiqiren, what can't he do?

What others can't do, it's really hard to say if it's put on him.

Thinking that Su Shi was just going to drag them here and slowly consume them. Both of them felt shocked, but they were both a little scared.

With an army of more than 100,000 people, will he have to accompany Su Shi like this in the future?

After a long time, I am afraid that those old men in the court will be the first to stand up against it.

After all, so many armies are in the wild, and the consumption is really huge. The Liao State is not as rich as the Great Song Dynasty, even if they want to persevere, they must be agreed by everyone, and the conditions must allow.

"Set them on fire, force them out, and it's better to escape there than to stay here." After thinking about it for a long time, Xiao Ying finally made a decision.

"Agreed. If you go to another place, the grain and grass will not come in like now

If it's so difficult, let's set it on fire. Zhang Jian is no longer in doubt.

Before, they were worried that setting fire would let Su Shi's department go, and it would be even more difficult to find him.

But for now, they would rather let Su Shi get out of here. As long as you don't live in this place where there are many mosquitoes, and if you don't have this place where it is extremely difficult to transport your own food, can the situation be worse than here in another place?

The Liao army began to burn the mountain, and the fire spread near the Thousand Insects Mountain.

As soon as the fire burned, there was a crackling explosion, which was the sound that occurs when mosquitoes are burned by the fire.

Seeing these mosquitoes that had plagued them for more than five months being burned to death in mid-air like this, the faces of all the Liao soldiers showed a glint of satisfaction and some excitement.

"Hahaha, inform all departments, once you find that the Su family army is killed, don't stop it, just follow from a distance, and then we will mobilize the main army to kill it."

At this moment, Xiao Ying finally saw the hope and opportunity of victory.

However, the good times did not last long.

It's just that after the fire burned for more than an hour, it suddenly came to a standstill, which made the Liao troops guarding the periphery confused.

Some soldiers thought that after being trapped for so long, Su Shi's army was not only unharmed, but also seemed to have countless food and grass available, so they discussed in private that this Su Shi would definitely have some immortal method to control the fire.

The voice of discussion became louder and wider, and finally reached the ears of Xiao Ying and Zhang Jian.

"Inform the subordinates, keep an eye on the departments, and once you find that a deserter appears, kill!"

Xiao Ying has led soldiers, and he knows very well that deserters are most likely to occur in this situation, if this is the case,

Once Su Shi led the army to kill, I am afraid that it will be them who are invincible.

Luo Leshui took the order and left, and Zhang Jian, who was left, said with a puzzled look, "I have been to see the fire, although I can't see the depth because the fire is too big, but it really doesn't mean to burn into the mountains, what the hell is going on." ”

"I don't know, we won't know until the fire stops." Xiao Ying said with a look of defeat.

If the fire can't help Su Shi and can't drive him away, then he really has nothing to do.

The fire continued to burn for a long time, and only then did it stop when the surrounding area was really nothing to burn. After another two days, all of them were extinguished, and Xiao Ying and Zhang Jian led the army forward to the place where the fire had stopped.

When I came here, I realized why the fire didn't spread forward. And behold, behold, at their feet, there was a hollow field with a width of thirty paces.

This area is full of exposed soil, that is to say, there is no grass growing here, no wonder the fire has to stop here, there is nothing to support combustion.

"This should have been prepared by Su Shi in advance, it seems that he doesn't want to leave here." Zhang Jian looked at the ground, sighed and said helplessly.

As soon as he said this, he heard a faint shouting of killing in the distance, which caused the faces of the two to change, and they hurriedly led people to retreat. Soon after, they received news that the Su family army had just launched a major counterattack, and tens of thousands of cavalry rushed out of the forest.

Due to the fire, the vigilance of the Liao army was reduced, and the forces were relatively scattered. Who wants to stop the fire, people will

Seized this opportunity and came up with a beautiful counterattack.

"How much is the loss?" Looking at Luo Leshui, the general who came to report the war, Xiao Ying asked with a gloomy face.

Tens of thousands of people were killed and wounded in battle. Luo Leshui lowered his head, looking like he didn't dare to face Xiao Ying's eyes.

"That's another 10,000 losses?" Hearing this answer, Xiao Ying became even more displeased.

"It's not going to go on like this. We have 40,000 killed and wounded in battle for various reasons. The advantage of troops is becoming less and less obvious, especially now, the morale of the army has also fallen sharply, and I am afraid that in the near future, even if it is a head-on battle with Su Shi's department, there is no 100% chance of victory. After hearing this, Zhang Jian also said with a headache.

For a while, the breath of defeat permeated the big tent, and neither of them had a better way.

Maybe you can continue to burn the mountain, but is Su Shi already prepared, and will the next fire stop because of this?

What's more, Su Shi is already telling them with practical actions, as long as you burn the mountain once, I will come back again.

At that time, Su Shi moved with a purpose, but they didn't know from which direction they would shoot and how to prevent it?

If you prevent it, how many people will you lose?

And seeing that the cold winter is coming, once it snows heavily, it becomes impossible to burn the mountain, so how long will they have to defend here, how much grain and grass will they waste, and how many troops will they lose?

So far, with Su Shi's entry into Liao in February, their 200,000 troops have been killed and wounded by 70,000 or 80,000 people. The rest is also a big drop in morale. In this case, they still have the energy to continue

Sending troops to the Great Song Dynasty?
