Hearing Xiaoyaozi say that he had fallen short, Wu Yazi couldn't help but ask: "Master, aren't the Wang family and the chaotic party in the Xingtang Guan army all captured? Is there any variable?"

Xiaoyaozi sighed: "That's right! That Wang Zhaoshan, the head of the Wang family, is indeed cautious. On the day that the division came to Xingtang Pass, I noticed that someone was spreading rumors in the barracks in an attempt to create a mutiny, and when I found out that it was the Wang family who was manipulating behind the scenes, Wang Zhaoshan also discovered me. Ignoring the fact that the time was not ripe, he immediately stirred up a commotion, and although I captured the head in time, he had already preemptively caused the armory to be burned.

Later, I tortured the Wang family again, only to learn of their full plan, and before the launch, he flew a pigeon to pass the book, contacted the Liao general Yelulu, and asked him to quickly lead the army to seize the pass. And earlier, he had sent away the direct descendants of the Wang family, if this matter was successful, his Wang family would certainly have a chance to prosper; if this matter failed, he also left the fire for the Wang family to make a comeback - the Murong family and the Wang family, as expected, can be produced in large numbers, not to be underestimated!

Although the internal troubles in Xingtang Pass are peaceful, the army of Liao will soon be in the city, and the soldiers in the city will be few and the equipment to defend the city will be gone, which is a poor road, and there is no power to return to the sky!"

Wu Yazi hurriedly said: "Master, can't you borrow troops from nearby cities?"

Xiaoyaozi shook his head and said: "The city guard has already sent an urgent report asking the DPRK to send troops to support, but that Yelulu is not general, he sent troops out of three ways, feints to attack Lingshou and Quyang, and actually attacks Xingtang, and the two cities of Lingshou and Quyang do not dare to transfer troops to leave the country, and other places will take more than five days at the earliest, but it is too late." ”

"That being the case," Wu Yazi said anxiously: "Why didn't Shizun leave as soon as possible?" Xingtang Pass is just a small border city, and it has nothing to do with the Great Song Dynasty, even if it is taken away by the Liao State, it can be recaptured in the future. ”

Xiaoyaozi said: "For the division, the city guard has arranged for the people in the city to withdraw, as for the division, even if the army presses the territory, I can't stay behind, so I won't be in a hurry to leave for a while, not to mention, if I don't do something, I always feel unwilling." These **** have come up with a strategy, although it is dangerous, but if it succeeds, it can save Xingtang Pass from war. ”

Is it an empty city plan? Ding Yu pondered in his heart, but after thinking about it, he denied it. The Khitan people are not Sima Zhongda, and Xiaoyaozi is not Zhuge Wuhou, he does not have a long-established prestige and cautious image in the eyes of the Khitan people.

Since it is not to show weakness to the enemy, it must be to show strength to the enemy?

Ding Yu was thinking to himself, but he heard Xiaoyaozi say to him: "Little monk, the strategy of the poor road has something in common with your actions in Qiuyun Village, if you help, my strategy can increase a lot of chances of winning, but this trip is too dangerous for you, and the poor road does not want to be reluctant." If you don't want to help me, you will go back to Luancheng with Wuya today to wait for news, if you agree to help me, I will give you my unique light skills of the free faction, with your talent, you will be able to practice to a small success in a day or two, and if the poor plan fails, you will have one more ability to save your life. What do you think?"

Even Xiaoyaozi didn't ask, and Ding Yu didn't want to miss this good show. You know, even if he is a top master, it is impossible to fight against the army in the formation with his own strength, he really wants to know, how Xiaoyaozi can turn the situation around under the absolute disadvantage and keep the Tang Pass, not to mention that he can also get the famous Ling Bo Weibu - the unique light skill of the Xiaoyao faction, and it can also be used as a hole card to save his life, not what is Ling Bo Weibu?

At that moment, Ding Yu agreed without hesitation. And Wu Yazi said unwillingly: "Master, how can there be a master in the world who is desperate in front and a disciple who enjoys peace in the back! Although the disciple is not talented, he is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, please allow the disciple to go with him!"

Xiaoyaozi said with a smile: "There is no need to be careless without a cliff, there are already arrangements for the teacher." You have shallow experience in the rivers and lakes, and it is not suitable to go with your teacher, but the safety of the city guard depends on you. In case the division is defeated and the Khitans break into the city, it is up to you to save the life of the city guard and take him to the rear city. ”

After speaking, he turned to Wang Yuanyi and Zhao Hong, and said: "It just so happens that the two leaders are here, and the poor road also has something to do. ”

Wang Yuanyi and Zhao Hong are both old rivers and lakes for many years, and they know the truth of swords and fish meat, although Xiaoyaozi said politely, but the two of them dare not disobey at all; Wuyazi also knows the temperament of the master who says the same, although he is still unwilling, but he can only follow the master's orders.

Yelu Lu sat on horseback, looking at the majestic army in front and behind, and his heart was unconsciously high-spirited. And what made him even more excited was the thought that he was about to swing his troops into that rich and fertile land later, where there was an inexhaustible supply of gold and silver, smooth and light porcelain, and silky and delicate silk, not to mention the women of the Southern Dynasty, whose skin was as white and smooth as their silk! Thinking of this, a hot current involuntarily rose in his lower abdomen.

"Report!" a shout interrupted Yelulu's thoughts, "General Bao, there are two Han people in front of you who are blocking the road, claiming to be the head of the Wang family and the eldest son of the Wang family in Xingtangguan. ”

Of course Yelulu knows. This family is a wealthy merchant in the Tang Dynasty, and for more than ten years, they have been transporting the salt and iron forbidden by Zhao and Song to Liao, and exchanged them for a large number of furs and animal tendons to transport them back to Zhao Song, and the object of the transaction is Yelulu's men.

A few days ago, the family sent a direct descendant to find him through Yelulu's men, saying that their sales of contraband over the years had been learned by the Zhao and Song courts, and that they would soon have their entire family beheaded. The Wang family was unwilling to be wiped out by this clan, and decided to abandon the Song Dynasty and join Liao, and as a gift of the audience, the Wang family decided to offer the Tang Pass.

With more than ten years of friendship in buying and selling contraband, and the direct children of the Wang family as hostages, and the news sent back by the Liao spies lurking in the Song Dynasty, Yelulu believed in the Wang family's refuge. Although he also knew that even if he captured Xingtang Pass, it would be difficult to defend the lonely city, and it would soon be recaptured by Zhao Song, but for Yelulu, what he wanted was not Xingtang Pass itself at all, but the gold, silver, grain, grass, and population in the city, even if he could only occupy it for one day, it would be enough for him to loot the entire city!

That's how Yelulu led 30,000 Liao troops to attack Xingtang Pass. And now that the head of the Wang family is stopped halfway for some reason, could it be that something has changed?

Yelulu frowned and said, "Bring two members of the Wang family to see me." After speaking, he turned his head to the soldiers beside him and said, "Find that Wang family disciple as well." ”

After a while, two members of the Wang family were taken to Yelulu's car, one of them was an old man in his fifties and sixties, and the other was a middle-aged scholar in his thirties and forties.

When the children of the Wang family who were sent to contact Yelulu saw these two people, they immediately rushed forward, bowed and saluted, "Shiyuan has seen his father and brother!" (To be continued.) )
