It's not easy to do! We guys have come to the nest of the party members, and it's not easy to get out! ”

Don't look at Li Kui blowing hot air without heart and lungs, eating mutton in a big gulp, and blaming the party for being as hard to swallow as horse urine. Usually at this time, Li Yun didn't dare to sweep Li Kui's interest, otherwise he asked: "It seems to be true, could it be that the second brother has drunk horse urine?" ”

If Li Yun was such a desperate head, he wouldn't have lived so much.

was bullied to death by Li Kui a long time ago.

According to Li Yun's understanding of Li Kui, although Li Kui said that it was difficult to do and looked worried, but this guy was beautiful in his heart?

Just annihilated a cavalry, although there are not many people, less than three hundred, but the capture of Ren Duoyan, a party nobleman, is already a great merit. According to past experience, Li Yun knows that when Li Kui is proud, he must follow Li Kui, and don't be stupid and say things that disappoint the fun: "Second brother, the party is just like that, with the second brother here, they are all local chickens and dogs." The second brother said that it was difficult to do, because he was worried that Gao Yu's infantry would become a burden to the second brother. ”

As soon as Gao Yu took a bite of hot food, he didn't have the heart to eat it anymore, glaring at Li Yun, he was frightened for a long time, and he didn't even let him eat Ansheng, Li Yun, why are you so bad?

Gao Yu did not take the captives to Hao Sui, he sent his subordinates to command. Even Lu Qian let him stay.

"Renjie, will we be in danger?"

Li Yun didn't dare to ask, but Gao Yu didn't.

Li Kui smeared the oil on his robe, grabbed a handful of soil from the ground and rubbed it back and forth. His hands were too greasy to affect the use of his weapons when he used them, and then he went to the water to wash his hands, and then turned back to the campfire and began to ponder to himself: "I guess in a day or two, we can still make a big deal." ”

Gao Yu was so frightened that the meat in his hand fell to the ground, and he said nervously with a dagger that cut meat: "Renjie, there are party members all around!" ”

"I know."

Of course, Li Kui knew that what he had just attacked was not a small force of party members, but an army escorting logistics. There were not many people, but hundreds of carts were found, as well as thousands of cattle, sheep and horses. Such a quantity of food, in times of war, can only be an army that transports supplies. It's just not clear why the nobleman Nitohiko is also among them.

After Li Kui thought about it carefully, he said suspiciously: "Do you say that Ren Duoyan only brought thirty guards, and the others were originally the people and horses of the party army to transport grain and grass?" ”

Gao Yu was stunned, why did you ask this question when Ren Duoyan was there?

The interrogation also did not take much time. When the person is gone, I remember, how big is your heart?

Thinking of this, even Gao Yu couldn't help it, and asked, "Renjie, why didn't you ask just now?" ”

"Forgot!"

Li Kui rolled his eyes and said confidently. That guy Ren Duoyan was so enthusiastic just now that even Li Kui was a little afraid. He is not afraid of captives, let alone vicious captives, but he is also afraid of mental illness, and even more psychosis of star-chasing plots. He even muttered in his heart: What would happen if he sent his ancestor to Western Xia?

As long as the Western Xia nobles who have studied the language, I am afraid they will not be able to resist Su Shi's sometimes majestic and sometimes gentle poetry, especially now that the Western Xia has heard that women are in power. Wenqing widows can hardly resist the wind and snow in Su Shi's poems? It must have been packed properly...... As long as it takes a few years, it is estimated that the Western Xia, who has fallen into the devil's path of poetry, will be finished.

It's a pity that this idea is a bit rebellious, and he can't afford the consequences of sacrificing his ancestor.

Although Su Shi went to Western Xia, there is a high probability that the waves will fly.

There may even be more names for foreign poets, but unfortunately he didn't dare to deceive Su Shi.

Thinking of his mistake just now, Li Kui must come back, waved his hand, and said: "Let the soldiers kill sheep and cattle, roast all the meat, and as for the grain, the amount that can be carried is prepared, and the rest is buried." ”

"And then?" The more Gao Yu thought about it, the more scared he became, he didn't know the real purpose of Li Kui not taking the road of supply to the party members at this juncture.

This question is easy, Li Kui blurted out: "Wait for the scout." Although it is easy to interrogate party members to obtain information, who can guarantee that the information obtained must be true? If the party members deliberately conceal it, we will even be deceived by a group of captives. In a dangerous situation, we cannot trust the enemy, we can only believe in ourselves. ”

Gao Yu instantly realized, and looked at Li Kui with a little unfathomable admiration.

If it were him, I am afraid that there would really be no way to achieve Li Kui's calmness. Of course, it is undeniable that Li Kui has a heart that is so strong that people think it is made of iron.

"My lord, Pingjung Fort was destroyed, but there are not many party members stationed."

"It's hard work, go down and eat meat."

"Master Xie."

Gao Yu, who went to the battlefield for the first time, couldn't settle down at all when he heard the scout's movement, and immediately straightened his ears. It's a pity that Li Kui didn't want to explain the situation to him at all, he couldn't help it, he pretended to be thirsty and scooped a scoop of sheep soup in the cauldron next to the bonfire, and he didn't see him drink it, so he was stunned, put down the scoop and remembered his original intention, and asked: "Renjie, this is the first wave of scouts." ”

"Finally, the second batch, those who went to Mikawaguchi have not yet come. Luckily, Jinmingzhai was not breached. After the party members broke Pingrong Fort, they did not stay and went directly south, Jinmingzhai. However, the current situation is that Jinmingzhai has obviously not been conquered, otherwise the party members would definitely not have transported grain and grass to the front. ”

"If Jinmingzhai is surrounded, we can only go to Sanchuankou, if there are party members in Sanchuankou, we can only go around in a big circle to go to Shanzhou."

Gao Yu hesitated for a while, and said to Li Kui: "Renjie, what do you think is the chance that we will get out of trouble?" These wastes of the security army have put the party members in, and it is hopeless to count on the security army, and the Suide army is probably too busy to take care of itself, and it is really up to us to stay in the fortress for a while, but in the field, once we are discovered by the party members, it is difficult to escape. ”

Li Kui snorted coldly: "Who said we were going to escape? ”

"It's not to escape, it's to bring the information back to Yanzhou, and if possible, it's better to go to Jingzhao Mansion." Just as Gao Yu was talking to Li Kui, the anxious Hao Sui came, and he had no choice but not to come.

The capture of Nitohiko is indeed great news.

But suddenly found that he was trapped in the rear of the Western Xia army, and Hao Sui suddenly had a thunderbolt in his mind, and there was a kind of panic that he was about to finish.

He didn't dare to escape with less than a hundred guards at all, the problem was that Hao Sui didn't feel safe wherever he fled. Unless there is a city now, a city as high as Jingzhao Mansion, there can be no party members outside the city, Hao Sui's voice is trembling when he speaks: "Renjie, our family is not easy, I entered the palace at the age of eight to serve the nobles, and then I was appreciated by the first emperor and worked hard for decades to get to where I am today." If our family dies, will not this sin be in vain, and will not this suffering be in vain? ”

Hao Sui hated Li Kui, hated the itchy teeth, he swore in his heart that he would keep a distance from Li Kui in this life, stay away, and not let Li Kui have the opportunity to harm him in the future.

But before that, you have to save your life, right?

If your life is gone, it's too late to say anything.

But if you want to keep your name in this dangerous battlefield, the best way is to find the thickest thigh to hold and die. And Li Kui is obviously the thickest thigh Hao Sui can get. After being identified, Hao Sui didn't feel at ease with anyone he was going with, so he had to follow Li Kui.

"Father-in-law Hao, although it is ......" Gao Yu explained to Hao Sui in embarrassment, and after comparing for a long time, he didn't have the face to say that he also had a share of credit. When Li Kui rushed down to kill the Xixia people, he was lying on the earthen beam and watching, and he didn't participate in the battle at all.

Li Kui will definitely not get used to Hao Sui, he has hard capital. But Gao Yu really couldn't do it, he still needed to talk to Hao Sui for promotion, so he had to pick a good one and say: "My father-in-law's original intention is good, and bringing the information back will definitely be a great contribution to my Great Song Dynasty." ”

"You see it that way, don't you? Gao Yu, I have long known that you are a person with wisdom roots, you know how to prioritize, and the war will not end in a day or two. You need to think long-term. Hao Sui's face was a little pale, and he was afraid that no one would help him speak. Li Yun made it clear that he and Li Kui were in the same group, and if Gao Yu didn't help him speak, he would be alone.

Li Yun snorted coldly: "There is also a team of scouts going to Sanchuankou, if there are party members in Sanchuankou, it will be difficult for us to go to Fushi, why talk about going to Dunzhou?" ”

"But shouldn't we pass through Mikawaguchi when we come? No, why didn't even skin Shi pass by, and walked to the north of Jinmingzhai? Hao Sui came back to his senses while speaking, and looked at Li Kui in a daze.

Li Kui's old face for no reason warmed up, and he said seriously: "There is a problem with the map." ”

"You ......"

Hao Sui almost didn't have a tone to get angry, what is the problem with the map, obviously you are lost.

But there is no way to continue to entangle this problem, and now they are caught in the front and rear marching routes of the party members, and once they are discovered by the party members, I am afraid that a bitter battle is indispensable. I am even more afraid that the party members will catch up and slowly run away with people, which is the most worrying situation.

But it's not without a chance, and the opportunity is on the scouts.

Hao waited for the scouts to come back, but he became more and more worried, after all, the last group of waiters left to chase the distant place, and there had been no news for three days. On the contrary, the soldiers are very happy, the grain and grass in Western Xia are more living creatures, cattle and sheep, killed and cooked, even if it is a forbidden army, there are not many opportunities to eat meat, and now it is open to eat, naturally they are eating and drinking one by one.

Midnight.

The last team of scouts has returned with good news.

"My lord, no party members have been found in Sanchuankou, but Lord Zheng, the owner of the village, is ready to give up the village and go to the skin."

"How many of them are there?"

"Two thousand soldiers and horses."

It is said that there are 2,000 soldiers and horses, but in fact there are only 2,000 infantry. Because the cavalry consumption was too large, the Great Song Dynasty could not get enough horses, and the six northwest roads could only maintain about 3,000 each. The strange thing is that there is no shortage of horses in the Great Song Dynasty, and the pack horses of the Great Song Dynasty can be seen everywhere in the northwest, but if you want to talk about the war horses used by the cavalry, they are scarce. Compared with the cavalry of the Western Xia and Khitan who were 100,000 and 200,000 at every turn, the cavalry of the Great Song Dynasty could be ignored.

Since it was infantry, it was still the cavalry of the party people, and it was impossible to rush to reinforcements.

But if Sanchuankou gave up his defenses, Li Kui was worried that there would be problems when retreating.

He frowned and said, "Did you bring a guide?" ”

"My lord, the villain is Yongxing Military Road, Sanchuankou scout Wang Ping, dare to ask who the adult is?"

"Secretary of the Provincial Cabinet Li Kui."

There is no choice but to pull the banner out of the secretary province, if he says that he is the county lieutenant of Yangquan County, who cares about him? Li Kui raised his hand and pointed at Hao Sui and said, "This is the Shaanxi Sixth Route Supervisor appointed by His Majesty, Eunuch Hao." ”

"Die for the Adults!"

The scout was very discerning, and when he heard the three words of the secretary province, although he had not necessarily heard of the official position of the Zhiji Pavilion, since the supervisor of the sixth road in Shaanxi was with him, he must be a great official, at least a minister.

He was a small scout, and he definitely didn't dare to let Li Kui take out tokens or other tokens to show his identity. Hao Sui was helpless, and took out the gold medal from the dark sac on his chest, which exuded a golden-red light against the backdrop of the firelight. The little colonel is just going through the motions, and it will be difficult for him to verify the official body and documents. The study of seals is enough to make most of the soldiers and civilians at the bottom of the Great Song Dynasty have an indescribable awe of the mystery of officials.

Li Kui spread out the map and said to Wang Ping: "Do you know how to read the map?" ”

"Yes."

Li Kui asked the other party to mark the location on the map, and there was still a path to choose. Sure enough, he took the wrong road, and after passing through Yanzhou during the march, he did not enter the territory of Yan'an Mansion at all, but went to Danzhou on the side, and then entered Yan'an Mansion after going around in a circle.

Fortunately, he finally met the guide who knew the way, and his heart was relieved a lot. Hao Sui was even more anxious when he saw this, and pulled Wang Ping over and asked, "Is there a shortcut to go directly to Sanchuankou?" ”

"Yes!" As a local forbidden army scout, he is naturally very familiar with the surrounding roads, and points to the core area on the map: "After going down to Jinming Village, you can go directly to Sanchuankou." Speaking of which, Sanchuankou is backed by Hunchuan, half a year is a water village, half a year is a dry village, and now the river is not up to the knee is easy to wade through. ”

Even if Hao Sui doesn't understand anything, he knows that Jinmingzhai is now besieged in the northwest, how can he go to Jinmingzhai? said angrily: "If you go to Jinmingzhai, won't you let our family die?" ”

"Father-in-law forgives sins, the villain still has a way, closer than the scouts, but it is difficult to walk, and the cattle can't get through." Wang Ping hesitated.

Li Kui immediately vetoed: "We have prisoners and a large number of horses, it is impossible to throw them away." This path cannot be chosen. ”

Hao Sui opened his mouth, in fact, he wanted to come. Livestock can't pass, although their own cars and horses can't go, but people still have two legs, he Hao Sui doesn't have to take a car to go, and it's not impossible to reluctantly walk a mountain road. The point is, the cattle can't get by, doesn't it mean that even if the party finds them, they can't catch up with them even if they send chasing troops?

The party item on horseback is the party item, if you really get off the horse and hurry, all of them are small and short legs, and they can't catch up with Song Jun.

It's a pity that such a good opportunity was vetoed by Li Kui. After Li Kui pondered for a while, he said to Hao Sui: "Father-in-law, it seems that we still have to take the main road from Yan'an Mansion to Qingzhou, and I am afraid that the Western Xia army attacking Huanqing Road will not be able to defeat it, so it should not be a problem for us to take this road." It's just that Li Kui had the courage to let his father-in-law take someone to go first. When you arrive at Sanchuankou, you will control the army in the wall, and you can't give up Sanchuankou. ”

"Why?" Hao Sui said angrily. finally found a way to live, but Li Kui wanted to make trouble again.

Li Kui stared at the map stubbornly, all the fortresses and fortresses were conquered by the party army, and the looted materials had not yet satisfied the appetite of the Tangut people, obviously the ambitions of the Tangut people were greater. In this case, Li Kui couldn't escape with Hao Sui, he found that the status and location of Sanchuankou was very good, about the same as Jinmingzhai and Yan'an Mansion's Fucheng, the original defenders of Sanchuankou, plus the army he carried, there were 3,000 people, and it could already be called a strange army, such a good opportunity, how could he be willing to miss it?

But just arranging the next surprise soldier is far from enough for Li Kui. The party members he wanted to stir up were in shock and restless in the rear.

Li Kui raised his head and smiled happily at Hao Sui: "Father-in-law Hao, haven't you ever thought about making Your Majesty look at you with admiration?" ”

Hao Sui flashed his eyes, swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, and asked, "Li Kui, isn't it good to go back safely?" ”

Li Kui spread his hands and said helplessly: "Father-in-law Hao, let's face the reality, most of us are infantry, and the party members are cavalry, so we can't escape." ”

Hao Suimu nodded, he understood this truth, but he always felt that something was wrong.
