Yelu Zhenzong thought for a while, and then called the ministers who came with him to the camp to discuss whether to unite with Western Xia to deal with the Great Song Dynasty.

There are two factions of ministers.

One faction advocated that the two Western Xia deal with the Great Song Dynasty, and the other faction was very disappointed in the Western Xia, believing that the two Great Liao princesses married the Western Xia, but they were not favored by the king of the Western Xia, and they could not get any benefits if they got in for nothing. I was walked once last time, and this time I want to be fooled, even if they are stupid!

The more Yelu Zhenzong listened, the more entangled he became.

I couldn't decide whether to contact Yelu Yingna and ask her to persuade Li Ning to send troops.

While he was struggling, a general hurried to the imperial camp with a scout who had been seriously wounded.

The scout's surname is Wan, and he is the leader of this scout team.

The official position is small, but the responsibility is great.

"Your Majesty, there is an urgent report!"

Then the scout, who knelt on the ground and was crumbling, said with difficulty: "Your Majesty, the villain found out that there are 70,000 soldiers in the Great Song Dynasty who have left Yancheng Town and are heading straight for the mouth of the Great Wall, and they will arrive in about two hours." Also, Emperor Song was also in this army. ”

"What?"

Yelu Zhenzong stood up in surprise and glared at the scout angrily: "Why didn't you come back and report earlier?" ”

As soon as the scout spoke, he pulled the wound on his face, and he ran wildly for a long time in the hot weather, and the clothes on his body were already dry and wet, and the sweat soaked into the wound, and he was now in pain all over his body.

But His Majesty didn't care in the slightest, and just blamed him for why he didn't send the news out earlier.

But he didn't know.

The Great Song Dynasty sent an advance team just to capture these scouts.

Those who went with him, desperately escorted them, so that they were able to escape, and they hurried day and night, and when the horses were dead, they ran with their feet, and finally sent the information back.

But I still think that the news sent by these scouts is not timely.

Wan Scout moved his lips with difficulty, wanting to explain a thing or two, he didn't want those colleagues who desperately escorted him back to die like this, and he would be disgusted by His Majesty, and maybe he would have to put the hat of delaying the fighter plane on them.

As soon as he spoke, he suddenly felt that the world was spinning.

Yelu Zhenzong was very displeased and asked the scouts to take them down, and then called the generals for urgent deliberations.

"There are still two hours, the Great Song Dynasty dispatched 70,000 troops, and we have no time to stop the attack outside the city, so we can only hold on and wait for work!"

"The minister seconded the proposal, the defense of Gaocheng is very comprehensive, but we can also strengthen the defense in these two hours, and kill the 70,000 troops of the Great Song Dynasty outside Gaocheng as much as possible."

In several battles between Da Liao and Western Xia, Yelu Zhenzong had a personal expedition, but the battle record was not good, and it can even be said that he was beaten back to Da Liao.

His military ability is mediocre, but he is also confused with self-confidence.

The two generals agreed to wait for their work, and then send two teams of men and horses out of the city in advance to attack the enemy on the east and west sides, but the Yelu Zhenzong did not agree, and insisted on taking the initiative to attack, in order to hit the morale of the Great Song Dynasty and let them see the might of the Great Liao warriors.

He actually wanted to confront Emperor Song.

In order to prove his ability to fight in the Great Liao, and to prove that he, the emperor of the Great Liao, can fight well.

"Your Majesty, I think that the ability of the Great Song Sergeant is not what it used to be, and we should be cautious! It is a wise move to hold on to Gaocheng, the Great Song Dynasty raised troops deep into the hinterland this time, as long as we hold on for a few days, let the 30,000 soldiers from Licheng and Rongcheng come to support, and flank the Song army left and right, we will be able to let them have no return. ”

This general's name is Deng Lu, and he is a native of the Song Dynasty.

Three years ago, he was still a first-rank general in the Song Dynasty, but because he was framed, he agreed to the solicitation of Da Liao in a fit of anger, and became a second-rank hussar general here, second only to the generalissimo of soldiers and horses.

Because of him, Da Liao did win several battles.

Deng Lu said that Yelu Zhenzong finally agreed to Deng Lu's suggestion and waited for work in Gaocheng, and at the same time sent a message to the generals of Licheng and Rongcheng, asking them to send troops to support Gaocheng and annihilate the Song army outside Gaocheng.

Deng Lu left to arrange the defense of Gaocheng, and Yelu Zhenzong himself walked around in the tent.

What he was worried about was Deng Lu's identity.

After all, he is from the Song Dynasty, although he took them to Da Liao to win a few battles, but it was only a small victory, I don't know that he has no way to come to Da Liao, and now he is in Cao Ying's heart in Han!

He had to make another plan.

Da Song is marching at a high speed, Zhao Zhen is a royal expedition, if he takes a carriage, it will be too unseemly, he can only grit his teeth and ride a horse, and after half a day, Zhao Zhen's face is already like a vegetable.

Fortunately, Pan Gong has been following around, and if he can't stand it, he will immediately send spiritual power to the official family.

However, Pan Gong is only a single spirit root, so he needs to be very careful, for fear that if he is not careful, the five elements in his body will be out of balance, which will not be good.

So at this time, Zhao Zhen remembered Su Yixin.

Pan Gong said that she is a person who cultivates the five elements, the closest to the five elements of the human body, and with her spiritual power, she will recover quickly.

"Ziyuan, come over for a moment."

Gu Qingjue rode closer: "Your Majesty, can you hold it physically?" ”

Zhao Zhen sighed tiredly, his face was a little unnatural: "I am really tired, I have been marching with you for these days to understand the hard work of the soldiers, I only hope that this time I can send troops to recover the sixteen states of Yanyun that my ancestors lost, so that the people will no longer suffer from war." ”

Zhao Zhen's words made Gu Qingjue feel at ease.

If the emperor can always care about the people of the world, he will not be a cruel emperor. Even if his ability is limited, as long as he is open-minded and can know people well, he is also a qualified emperor.

"What Your Majesty said is that with this dispatch of troops, we will definitely be able to recover the Sixteen Continents."

Zhao Zhen gasped again, and as a result, he took a mouthful of dust, causing him to cough again and again.

"Your Majesty, yesterday Yixin communicated with the minister, saying that she would come to Gaocheng tomorrow."

On the second day of Su Yixin's return to Beijing, she took Qin Lian and Luo Wuxian to Xuanyin Sect, the two children missed their mothers, Gu Qingjue wanted to follow His Majesty on the march, and Su Yixin was not good at taking the children to follow, so she had been accompanying the two children for the past few days.

Now that he is about to attack Gaocheng, Su Yixin is worried about Gu Qingjue, after all, the sword has no eyes on the battlefield, and there are many scattered cultivators in Daliao who are stirring up for the sake of interests, but in this battle, I don't know what the situation will be at that time.

She will not intervene directly in the war, but just protect a little Gu Qingjue.

Zhao Zhen was really relieved to hear that Su Yixin would come tomorrow.

He really couldn't hold on.

Coming from Kyoto to the border, he was also on horseback, but at that time he didn't march so fast, he could still hold on, today is to attack Gaocheng by surprise, and the emphasis is on a fast word, otherwise it will delay the fighter.

This is, Di Qing's voice sounded: "Quick, one of the other party's scouts has escaped, we must rush to Gaocheng half an hour in advance." ”

"Yes!"

The soldiers did not complain after hearing this, but only quickened their pace and ran forward with a resolute face.
