Chapter 237: The Cold Water Pass is in an emergency

A group of thieves slashed at Feiyan, Feiyan pulled out his sword to fight with them, for Feiyan, killing them was like chopping melons and vegetables, and soon this group of people was killed by Feiyan, Feiyan searched the pockets of the people in black, these people in black all had Gu poison on their bodies, and Feiyan smelled the antidote, the thing that worried Feiyan the most was that the antidote of these people was different, which meant that the poison of these people was different, Feiyan knew that it was useless to take these antidotes, so he threw them on the ground.

Feiyan got up and performed light skills, and chased after the marks left by thousands of miles. Halfway through, Feiyan came to a fork in the road, saw footprints on both sides, one had four rows of teams, and the other had two rows of lines, Feiyan looked at the mark and thought, this is really enough for thieves, and he used this method to confuse the enemy, Feiyan got up and kicked the stone that left the mark into the distance, and then walked to the left road to chase Wanli.

Chaoping they ran day and night, the horses of the Youyun soldiers were a little unbearable, tired of several horses, fortunately they could meet a small group of enemies and their own troops along the road, they were about to find a large army, at this time Chaoping they found something strange, felt that the Liao army troops seemed to be deploying something, Chaoping changed his attention, and said: "Boss, you go first, divide into two groups of people, one wave to find Wanli and Cao Xinyang's eldest brother, one wave to Hanshui Pass to protect Your Majesty, I will go to inquire about the news, and then I will arrive." Youyun soldiers did not dare to slack off, the boss hurriedly ordered the brothers to divide into two teams to act, and Chaoping was watching the movement of the Liao army along the road, he intercepted a group of Liao army heralds on the road, he found a letter, which said that let a Liao army force go to the direction of Pingdu Pass, Chaoping was puzzled, thinking about what these people were doing at that Pingdu Pass, this checkpoint is not a place where soldiers must fight, and there are not many Song soldiers here, Chaoping thought carefully about the terrain of the border pass, he thought that this group of enemies is going to block reinforcements, they want to cut off the connection between the Song army, and Pingdu Pass is Hanshui Pass fifty miles to the west, if this group of people block in Pingdu Pass for two or three days, this Liao army has time to arrange soldiers and horses to trap Hanshui Pass.

Chao Ping had a plan, changed into the herald's uniform, and went to the Liao army camp with the letter.

Soon, Chao Ping found the Liao army barracks, presumably this herald is to this camp, Chao Ping rode to the door of the barracks, originally the barracks guards should have a password, but Chao Ping pretended to be a herald is a person in the big tent of the Chinese army, so there is no need for a password, as long as the waist card, and he is still a person, the Liao army did not watch out for him at all, he entered the Chinese army tent, saw the main general of the Liao army, Chao Ping did not say a word, pulled out the knife is a slash, soon he killed seven or eight officers in the battalion, and then fled by the way, and the soldiers outside panicked and did not cut, did not catch up with him at all。

After Chaoping escaped, he ran in the direction of Hanshui Pass.

"Newspaper, newspaper, newspaper. "In the palace of the emperor of Hanshuiguan, there were soldiers outside to report, and they heard his voice before they saw it.

The emperor hurriedly summoned him, and the soldier said: "Report to Your Majesty, I am a person from General Cao's camp, General Cao ordered me to report, this Liao army is now moving a large number of troops towards Hanshui Pass, I don't know why a large number of troops suddenly appeared, and General Wanli's troops have not yet been contacted." The prime minister said: "What about General Cao?" The man said: "General Cao led the main force to arrange the defense, but the three lieutenants under him with the rest of the men and horses have not yet rushed back, seeing the Liao army's formation, this is to attack Hanshui Pass." The emperor said: "So that's the case, it's okay, don't worry, we have a lot of soldiers and horses, what are we afraid of, and we also know the combat effectiveness of the Liao army along the way, so it's not in the way." The prime minister said: "Your Majesty, I think it is better to withdraw from the cold water pass, let's go to the rear, after all, your safety is important." The emperor insisted on refusing to retreat, and planned to deal with the Liao army, but helplessly, the prime minister then ordered someone to tell Cao Xinyang and let him lead his troops to shrink his forces and stick to Hanshui Pass.

Moreover, the prime minister also flew a pigeon to pass a book to Wanli, asking him to bring the army back as soon as possible. Chaoping has been in a hurry, he wants to find Cao Xinyang at Hanshui Pass as soon as possible, in other words, now he finds Cao Xinyang is even more important than seeing the emperor, because he knows the enemy's conspiracy and wants to lead the troops out of the encirclement, and Cao Xinyang They don't know that the enemy wants to surround them, the army of thousands of miles is in the rear, if the enemy once cuts off his connection with the Central Plains, then the entire bag mouth is tightened, under this encirclement situation, even if it is a breakthrough, it is only in the direction of the desert, because the Liao army will definitely defend the back road of the Song army, and the Song army has no more soldiers and horses。

Wanli's army withdrew far away, he wanted to go to Hangu Pass, and Cao Xinyang got closer, at this time Feiyan caught up with them, and Youyun soldiers also found their troops, but there were still more than ten miles away from the Chinese army in Wanli, under the leadership of the soldiers, Youyun soldiers quickly saw Wanli.

Feiyan saw that all the Youyun soldiers had not arrived, and hurriedly asked: "Second brother, why didn't you all come over, is there something wrong, my eldest brother? The second child said: "Miss Feiyan, don't worry, my eldest brother and the brothers are fine, it was he who asked us to come to see General Wanli to pass on the order, they have other things, we have to separate." General Wanli said: "Why are you in such a hurry? The second brother and they told the entire conspiracy of the Liao army, Wan Li was shocked, thought about it, and shouted: "Everyone come with me." With that, he followed everyone to the map, he looked at the map carefully, and said: "We can't withdraw our troops to Hanshui Pass, if the enemy cuts off the rear road, we will not be able to break through, and we still don't know the combat effectiveness of the various tribes in this steppe." Feiyan nodded, thinking that what Wan Li said was very reasonable, and the deputy general on the side said puzzledly: "General, but in this way, the cold water pass is critical, what if General Cao loses." Wan Li replied: "Yes, I am also worried about the safety of Your Majesty, so let's go and point out the vigorous men from the army, form a force of surprise soldiers, and send them to deal with General Cao's main force." Feiyan said: "General Wanli, I think this is very good, the art of war is in harmony with the clouds, and the victory is with the odds, I will take the Youyun soldiers and them back with this group of soldiers." Wan Li said: "It's okay, Miss Feiyan, take care of yourself, I'll ask the sergeants to prepare some meals in a while, everyone will eat and then leave, and I'll prepare supplies for you." Feiyan nodded, and the Youyun soldier naturally agreed to Feiyan's suggestion, because there was no better way.
