Zhao Ta led the Chinese army to stop at Huanglong Mansion, and Li Yanxian and others rushed to Huining with the front army.

He spent the night in the Yellow Dragon City, which was surrounded by plains and few mountains, and was a rare fertile wilderness.

From this north, to Huining, a large area of land is such a geomorphological feature.

The mountains of Baishan and Heishui are mostly concentrated in the northeast and southeast, and there are not many in the middle, especially on the west side near the grassland.

Zhao Ta led Huo Xuanji and Xiao Lizhen out to watch the scenery, at this time in autumn, the grass and trees turned yellow, the geese went south, and the wind was also killed.

Zhao Ta rode on the horse and sighed: "What a good black soil, if it is cultivated, there will be a bumper harvest and a bumper harvest of grains." ”

Xiao Liqin's face was even more ugly than the withering grass and trees, and he didn't say a word, looking at this side, looking at that side, and whimpering in his heart.

Lost, all lost, Huanglong Mansion was lost, Huining was also lost, the emperor went to the northwest to defect to the tribe, is the Dajin Kingdom gone?

Huining was lost, what happened to my mother? If the mother is gone, then the family will not live, and I am afraid that revenge is delusional, and the great immortal knows that he can't beat Zhao Tan, and his family will not have any chance.

What about rhubarb? Still in the courtyard? You won't ask Qin Jun to take him away and eat it, right? If so...... Xiao Lizhen couldn't help it, and tears crackled and fell.

"Why is Miss Xiao crying?" Zhao Ta wondered, I don't know why Wanyan Xiyin chose her to come over to be an assassin undercover, how can she be an assassin with this kind of temperament? It seems that people are really in a hurry and unwise, and Wanyan Xiyin was dizzy at that time.

"I, I want to rhubarb......" Xiao Lizhi sobbed.

"It turned out that I wanted rhubarb...... Zhao Ta nodded, he knew that rhubarb was a dog, before Huo Xuanji said that Xiao Lizhi was okay and read rhubarb, it seems that the two have a deep relationship, he said: "Rhubarb is good, isn't it as the saying goes, one yellow, two black, three flowers and four white, the taste of this yellow dog is ......"

Xiao Lizhi blinked his eyes when he heard this, he couldn't hold back any longer, and cried loudly with a "wow".

Zhao Ta saw her crying sadly, touched her chin and smiled: "I thought that Miss Xiao was thinking about her childhood sweetheart's friend, and she couldn't help herself if she was worried about an accident." ”

"What, what friend?" Xiao Lizhi said casually, and then woke up to his own identity, and became more and more sad and sad, thinking that the god of Ceres really killed someone.

"Isn't it Miss Xiao's childhood sweetheart? Huanglong Mansion is gone, maybe it's in Huining, it's easy to find such a big-headed person, and when I go to Huining, I asked my subordinates to visit carefully, as long as they are alive, they won't be found. Zhao said with a smile.

"I'm afraid, I'm afraid I'm not there......" Xiao Li said with a whining, at this time, he could only follow Zhao Ta's words, but what he was thinking about in his heart was clearly his mother and rhubarb, and he was not a childhood sweetheart at all.

"If it's really gone, Miss Xiao doesn't have to be too sad, this big-headed person...... In fact, there are still many in the world. ”

Xiao Lizhi wiped a handful of tears, what are you talking about? My "best friend" is a childhood sweetheart, what does it have to do with someone next to me......

"When the war is over, Miss Xiao and I will go to Tokyo, which is more prosperous and lively, suitable for life."

Xiao Li was stunned when he heard this, go to Tokyo? What to go to Tokyo? She doesn't want to live anymore, if her mother and rhubarb are dead, she will die in Huining, so she won't go to Tokyo!

"I, I'll go ......" Xiao Li looked pitiful, at this moment, she had to stabilize the other party first, and said anything, otherwise the other party would say, "I advise you not to be ignorant", she didn't know how to answer.

"That's good." Zhao Ta smiled slightly, and then did not speak, but rode south, and the people behind hurriedly followed, and the big-bellied grasshopper ran wildly like a happy one, and traveled around the fertile plain for more than an hour before returning to the city.

The next day, Zhao Ta took the Chinese army to set off and went north to Huining, the army did not go fast, after all, the major event had been decided, and there was no need to march in a hurry.

After staying overnight on the road, he arrived at Huining the next day, and from a distance, Zhao Tan saw the newly built city, and the villages he came to were all wrapped in the city, and they were never seen again.

galloped around the city with great interest, and then entered the city under the guidance of Li Yanxian.

General Lu did not come to greet him, but took the iron armor and continued to kill the sword hidden department of the Jurchen in the northwest, and when he left Huining, he left a message, calling for additional troops to support, Li Yanxian divided the former soldiers and horses into eighty percent, Liu Qi and Yue Fei took a few with them, and went to chase General Lu.

This Ningcheng is not completely completed, although the surrounding outline is formed, but some defense and Seiko are only half done, it looks relatively rough and simple, if you want to really complete it, I am afraid it will take a year or two.

The layout of the city is roughly modeled after Shangjing, divided into two places, north and south, the north is naturally the place where the nobles of the Jin Emperor lived, and the south city is the common people.

The emperor's village no longer exists, replaced by a huge imperial city, but there are still a lot of villages where those ministers lived, and some Jurchen ministers were nostalgic for the rough life of the past, so they did not move into the new mansion, and still slept in the big grass house adobe kang in the house, feeling down-to-earth.

Zhao Ta walked around the city, there were almost no Jurchens in the city, and I don't know if Lu Jiang killed the Jurchens and slaughtered them, or if most of the Jurchens in Huining fled, or went to the Sword Hidden Department with Wu Qi, or disappeared.

At this time, Zhao Ta looked back at Xiao Lizhen, who had been sluggish, silent, and just walked with the team.

He thought about it for a while, called the four brothers of the Lu family, and asked them to lead the troops to go with Huo Xuanji and Xiao Lizhen, nominally to find Xiao Lizhen's childhood sweetheart and friend, but in fact, to see if Xiao Lizhen wants to go home, if she wants to go back, let her go back, and follow people to pretend to be deaf and dumb.

Huo Xuanji naturally knew Zhao Ta's thoughts, and as soon as he agreed, he called Xiao Li, who was still sad and sad, out of the team.

Then, after another half an hour, Zhao Ta settled in the Jinguo Palace.

A little later, Jiang Si came back to report the news, Zhao Ta couldn't help but smile after hearing it, Xiao Lizhen's mother was still there, and the dog Rhubarb was also safe and sound, in fact, Zhao Ta sent a fast horse to inform General Lu in advance, no matter what else, this person and a dog must stay.

A large group of people accompanied Xiao Lizhen to act, pretending not to see or understand, nodding vigorously at Xiao Lizhen's lame reason, in Xiao Lizhen's stunned and stupid expression, let the other party hide and recognize each other, and then give the mother and daughter a chance to be alone, and ask them to discuss how to hide it together.

In short, it is quite a funny scene, everyone can see that it is too fake, even Xiao Lizhen's mother also found that it was inappropriate, but Xiao Lizhen was unconscious.

After Zhao Ta explained a few words to Jiang Si, he sent him back to continue acting, and then called the generals to discuss military affairs.

In the evening, Xiao Lizhen came back, she didn't want to come back here, but there was no way, she was afraid of being seen by Zhao Ta, so she could only come to the Jinguo Palace.

Zhao Tan squinted and asked her, "Miss Xiao can find that big-headed friend?" ”

Xiao Lizhen saw his mother before, and the big stone in his heart fell, he was both happy and happy, but he pretended to be heartbroken: "I didn't find it, I'm afraid I would have killed the Jurchen a long time ago." ”

Zhao Ta nodded with a serious face, and then Xiao Li Ai said, "However, I found a dog that looks very similar to Rhubarb." ”

"A dog-like one?" Zhao Ta was full of surprise.

"It's just a lot of the same, almost exactly the same!" Xiao Lizhi peeked at Zhao Ta, thinking that he didn't find any flaws, and said: "The family that has dogs, and, ......."

"What else?" Zhao asked.

"There is also an aunt who looks like a mother in my impression......" Xiao Lizhen gritted his teeth and said, and then lowered his head, but this time he didn't even dare to sneak a peek at Zhao Tan.

Zhao Ta smiled secretly in his heart, but he was still surprised: "Is there such a coincidence in the world? Isn't this the fate of the legend? In this case, Miss Xiao might as well get close to her, that is the dog...... You can also have nothing to play and cultivate feelings. ”

"Really?" Xiao Li raised her head when she heard this, she couldn't suppress the ecstasy in her heart, and felt that this Zhao Ta was really easy to deceive, and she was so worried that she had thought so much before, and she was flustered and uneasy.

"Of course it's true, when did I ever lie about it." Zhao Ta said.

"Then I know, I'll go to my aunt tomorrow, and I'll play with her rhubarb." Xiao Lizhen smiled excitedly, and almost didn't jump up.

Zhao Ta also smiled, and then said a few more words, then sent Xiao Li to rest, watched her go out and left, and couldn't help rubbing her temples and shaking her head.

Two days later, Huang Jue received a letter that the southern and eastern parts of the Jin Kingdom had been leveled, and Zhao Ta ordered him to temporarily guard the mouth of the North Bay and pay close attention to the movements of Goryeo.

At this point, the entire Jin Kingdom, except for a few tribes further north to the west, was all taken into the bag.

And among those tribes, only the Sword Hidden Division is the largest, and the others are all small tribes, which depend on the Sword Hidden Division.

Then another day, Zhao Ta ordered the military horse, took the generals, and went straight to the sword hidden department.

The Sword Hidden Department is not close to Huining, it has already leaned on the bitter cold land in the north, there is no city here, it is the kind of ancient village lifestyle, it stands to reason that Lu will take a heavy armored iron horse, and then Yue Fei, Liu Qi and others will come to support, it should have been swept away a long time ago, I don't know why there is no news.

When I arrived at the place, I realized that the Jianyin Department and those stockades that were attached to the small department had actually been turned into powder, but there were too many martial arts masters in the Jianyin Department, and they joined up with the remnants of Wanyan Zonghan who rushed over, and actually protected Wu Qimai to fight their way out of the encirclement and fled all the way to the west.

And Lu General Yue Fei and others, leaving heavy cavalry and infantry troops, took 30,000 light horsemen to chase and kill on the grassland.

Zhao Ta pondered for a moment, and then also put down the infantry and stationed in place, only led the light cavalry, and also chased westward.

After a full day and a night's work, I saw the scouts of the Qin army in front, the scouts looked at the flag, and immediately came to see the driver, Zhao Ta inquired and learned that General Lu and others led the troops to camp dozens of miles away.

There is a large mountain in the northern part of the steppe, in fact, there are several mountains in the northern part of the steppe, running east-west and north-south, and in front of it is a large mountain called Sayankenteya.

The Sayan Kenteya Mountains run east-west, stretching for seven or eight miles, with coniferous forests and peculiar green grasses on top of them, and a small river on the side.

The scouts reported that the escaped Jurchen Jianyin Division, as well as Wu Qimai, Zonggan Zonghan and others went up the mountain with the remnants of the army, totaling seven or eight thousand, and the mountain was relatively large, and the number of Qin troops was somewhat insufficient, so they could not search the mountain, so they had to patrol the mountains to monitor the situation on the mountains and wait for reinforcements.

Zhao Ta nodded, the Jurchens should not have only a few thousand people left, they should have been hunted down and killed all the way and died a lot, and this mountain is not small, and the more than 30,000 soldiers led by General Lu and others to search the mountain are definitely not enough.

He asked, "Why didn't you use fire attacks?" ”

The scout said: "Several generals have also discussed, although the fire attack is good, the terrible mountain fire is really big, burning and spreading, and when the Jurchen burns a seven, seven, eighty, eight or eight after it is difficult to identify, it is impossible to determine the identity of Wu Qimai and others, even if they die, they don't know which one is, and it is not easy to determine who is gone by luck." ”

Zhao Ta pondered: "This is okay, this kind of mountain, where can you get rid of people if you really magnify the fire, you must be trapped and powerless from the mountain, since you are surrounded, you must not run away from one, right, you can probably find it, Lu Jiang should be ...... them"

Speaking of this, he smiled, and the words behind him did not come out, but what he thought in his heart was that he was afraid that Lu Jiang and they all wanted to take the credit of killing the Jin Chief, and they would be burned so that they could not see the appearance, even if they destroyed all these Jurchens, this credit would not be easy to remember.

After all, the Emperor of the Jin Kingdom, he wants to see people in life and corpses in death, he can't tell which one is, what's the matter?

But Zhao Ta doesn't care about this, and he expects that there are still masters around Wu Qimai, so where can he burn the mountain directly? Most of them will come down and break through.

He immediately called the scouts to lead the way, and after a while, the army came to the foot of the Sayan Kenteya Mountain, and General Lu and others hurried over to meet them when they got the news.

Zhao Ta's gaze swept over everyone, and finally fell on Lu Jiang's face, the original scholar's white skin has become extremely dark, and his bare chin has also grown a messy beard, the grassland is exposed to the wind and sun, and the marching and conquest in the past few months have tempered General Lu not like himself.

Zhao Ta looked at him and said with a smile: "General Lu's name will go down in history. ”

General Lu hurriedly bowed again: "How can his subordinates dare to be praised by His Majesty, destroy the Western Xia, and the Jurchen, all rely on His Majesty's strategy to win a thousand miles, and his subordinates are just carrying out His Majesty's orders." ”

Zhao Ta smiled, didn't say much, looked at the mountain ahead, beat the horses and went around, the generals followed, and finally looked at it after a while, and returned to the original place.

Zhao Ta said: "This place is sinister, searching the mountains is definitely not a good strategy, not to mention the Tibetan people in the cracks of the rocks on the top of the tree, the other party will set a trap and ambush, and it will inevitably suffer heavy losses, so it is better to burn it!" ”

Everyone looked at each other, and at this moment, Zhao Ta had arrived, so they had no more ideas, and said yes together.

Zhao Ta pulled a piece of cloth corner, stretched out his hand to identify the direction of the downwind, at this moment in autumn, the west wind has risen, and there is a northerly trend, so the situation of heavy troops ambushing the southeast.

The mountain fire is raging, the smoke is billowing, no matter how strong your martial arts are, it is impossible to go against the fire, it is not something that human power can do.

Therefore, the other party will definitely go southeast when he escapes down the mountain, but the east is steep and narrow, and it is a turnback distance, Zhao Ta predicted that it was unlikely, and it was more likely to take the long and wide place in the south.

However, there are still heavy troops in the east, especially the crossbowmen, and it is impossible for any bird to fly out from this side.

Then he personally supervised the army due south, and then ordered a fire to be set on both sides of the northwest.

At this time, the autumn is dry and dry, and the mountain wind is strong, and it doesn't take long for a fire to ignite the prairie and burn the sky, and the fire is raging, and the black smoke is billowing out, and the front is burned like a mountain of flames......
