Volume 1 Yanyun Chaos Chapter 127 Killing the King (2)(1/2)

The sound of the horn whimpered and echoed at the head of the city of Tanzhou. This horn was captured in the earth-shaking death battle against the Jurchen soldiers in Gubeikou.

A tall Song soldier was blowing slowly with all his strength. The low whimpering sound seemed to have shaken the entire Tanzhou.

The Danzhou capital was near and the busy people all raised their heads and looked at the scene in awe. Since Xiao Xuanzan, who had been rumored to be like a god, their tense life had doubled in just two days. A large number of young and strong men had to use the civilians to draw out from various construction sites, and used the powerful military horses in the area as the backbone, and formed a team of civilians. At the same time, in addition to pack horses, horse carriages, ox carriages, mule carriages, and hundreds of small carriages pushed by people in the city. The civilians' team numbered, from A to Wujiu, and Fang Teng organized thousands of civilians to come out while moving. In addition, there were powerful people familiar with the mountains and rivers of Youyan border areas to support the troops, which was enough to rely on Tanzhou to supply thousands of troops to the north.

The people who stayed behind also increased their tasks. They must repair the city and the defense facilities attached to the city within a few days, and all the guards on the city must be fully replenished. Everyone has put too much work under pressure, but Fang Teng didn't feel sorry for the things that fell into his hands, whether it was food or utensils, to give them doubled. In the troubled times, especially after several war robberies, there was a place to settle down and local officials were also in charge. In addition, the elderly and weak at home could drink a sip of hot soup because of their own labor, and these civilians were also at ease.

Fang Teng also insisted on sending civilians to maintain the water conservancy in Tanzhou, as if he was preparing for the future spring farming. Ximen still maintained the test machine. These actions that seemed to have nothing to do with military affairs greatly calmed the hearts of people around Tanzhou. Xiao Xuanzan, Fang Junzhu and the Song Dynasty behind them seemed to have already grasped Tanzhou firmly in their hands and would never leave again. With this mood, these civilians and local tyrants would be more at ease when they work.

In Tanzhou City, there were already a lot of reserves under the management of Wang Yasha. Although they were hit by the army, there were thousands of stones of various grains, arrowheads and military weapons, and there were even more than a hundred pairs of iron armor in the armory warehouse. Although it was not as good as the standards of the most elite white soldiers and the Victory Army of the Song Dynasty, it would be enough to supplement a short-term war. Not to mention that the powerful forces from Tanzhou Zuojinhe and the Tutu sent a considerable portion of the supplies under the temptation of Xiao Yan's prosecutor to the military officers of the Shenwu Changsheng Army of the Song Dynasty. Some have been stored, and some have come in endlessly along the way.

People in Yan are originally light and fierce. As long as they are young and strong men, most of them are riding bad horses and driving hard bows. The people are tough, and although they are a little weak in their righteousness, there is no other reason. Because they have been away from the Han family for more than a hundred years, they naturally become much weaker.

However, these young and strong men, once they were bound, were all good soldiers. At least they were more powerful than most of the soldiers and horses in the Song Dynasty. Most of these young and strong men were brought by Yandi tyrants of all sizes. Except for the extremely elite part, they were temporarily assigned to the Shengjie Army. As far-out surveillances who were familiar with the terrain, the others were still under the leadership of the powerful forces in various places. It was not yet time to rashly digest them into the Shenwu Eternal Victory Army.

There have been many powerful people from all over the country who have arrived in the past few days, and there are also people and horses coming in one after another. To sum up, there are always two or three thousand infantrymen and four or five hundred elite cavalry. These people and horses were taken out of Tanzhou by Xiao Yan, and they were almost enough to be auxiliary soldiers. In the city of Tanzhou, only one thousand Shenwu Changsheng Army was left. Ma Kuo Yu Jiang Fangteng and the other three were guarding it. As a matter of unfavorable support.

The other soldiers and horses sent out were more than 1,400 soldiers from the three battalions of Baijia soldiers. The entire army of Shengjie Army was four battalions, more than 1,600 soldiers, the Shenwu Changsheng Army had two battalions of light cavalry, and more than 2,000 infantry soldiers. In addition, the local tyrants who were sent to serve were two,300 soldiers and horses. Xiao Yan went on an expedition this time, holding nearly 1,400 soldiers and horses. Among them, there were 4,000 light and heavy cavalry that could be worn with sharp and sharp light horses, with more than 7,000 war horses and pack horses in the army. Xiao Yan has traveled through time and has experienced many battles. This is the first time!

Amid the sound of the trumpet, the fierce and fierce soldiers of the Shengjie Army first came out. They experienced the bloody battle near Gubeikou and walked in front of the two battalions of troops. All of these soldiers were wearing mink hats and carrying their own iron helmets behind them. Some of these mink hats were captured, and the other soldiers who participated in the war saw that they were jealous and collected fur when they returned to Tanzhou to make this Jurchen hat.

If there are other soldiers in the camp who have never participated in the war and want to follow the example, they often open their eyes and scold them.

"Zhi Niang, have you fought side by side with us near Gubeikou? Brothers are all brothers, but the matter of military achievements cannot be missed at all. I want to put on the Jurchen children's sable hat, follow Xuanzan to go to the battle and pay it by myself! But in the front, our two battalions are still vanguards. Don't clean the remaining Jurchen Tatars and sons for us, and you can't get it forward!"

As expected, the two battalions of men still pestered Xiao Yan to gain the position of vanguard of the entire army. Originally, Xiao Yan planned to let them rest. Although the two battalions had withered to the point of only more than 600 soldiers, more than 200 injured soldiers were resting in the city of Tanzhou, and half of them were hard to go into battle. However, their spirits were so high that they were all wearing various martened hats on their heads, with different furs. In the autumn wind, the fur of these martened hats trembled slightly, and some of them had their brocade belts hanging down. At first glance, they were brilliant. The civilians next to them looked at them and stuck out their tongues and cheered: "Good Diaoer Camp! Isn't this going to cut off the heads of six or seven hundred Jurchen Tatars, and these martened hats were enough to protect Tanzhou with such an army!"

After they led the troops of the remaining two battalions of the Shengjie Army. Their numbers were sufficient, and the military appearance was actually more powerful than the brothers in front of them. But they just took away all the charms of the sable hats, and everyone looked at the front of the front and saw the fire. They cursed in their hearts: "Who Xiao Xuanzan chose to go forward that day is not up to fate. You are lucky to have such a big victory. If we change us, Diaoer's camp is not our name? Following Xiao Xuanzan, how could he have lost? Zhi Niang, this time he will fight with the Jurchen Tartars. I hope these Tartars will bear some and leave some for us to kill!"

The light cavalry formation of Shengjie Army was already amazing enough. Some of the light cavalry in Yandi, mixed with them, were all proud and proud when they were standing sideways. The elites raised by the national power of the Song Dynasty were easy to say, and they were all equipped to the extreme. After changing to the Yandi horses, there was really nearly two thousand light cavalry sweeping the Yandi land. When did these Yandi men have such a mighty power?

After the people around him pointed and saw that the Shengjie Army had left the city, they felt the ground shaking. The soil and rocks were constantly jumping up on the ground regularly, and the horse's hooves were thunderous. After a whirlpool at the city gate, they became a little dull and hit the heart directly.

In the blink of an eye, white soldiers came out one after another. In order to move the white soldiers, who were like the iron city wall, the suspension bridge at the west gate was specially reinforced, and heavy wooden stakes were laid down below.

But when the white-legged heavy cavalry appeared on the suspension bridge and the heavy bridge boards hit by the horse's hooves "creaked" sound, everyone was worried that the suspension bridge would collapse in an instant!

The soldiers of the Baiye soldiers were covered with armor, and they also had their eyes on their faces, looking like they were ready to rush to the formation. There was no doubt that Xiao Yan was moving to show his military power.

These white-legged heavy cavalry, which were like iron walls, all lowered their faces. Some were simple and unpretentious, with only a crack in their eyes, and some officers had patterns such as angry King Kong and Pixiu on their faces. This heavy cavalry is not as fierce and sharp as when the Shengjie Army was dispatched, and the whistle can be transmitted from the front to the end of the team. In this army, there seems to be only the sound of weapons colliding. The people in Yan have experienced some wars. When they saw the Shengjie Army just now, they can praise them. When they saw the Baijie Army, no one could speak, and they could only subconsciously retreat further.

The white-legged soldiers and horses seemed to be in a steady stream. In addition to their own mounts, everyone also had horses, and these horses were used to carry armor. However, in order to show their military power, all of them were placed on their bodies. In the past, there were only two or three hundred cavalry patrols, and now there were more than 1,400 armored soldiers coming out, plus nearly 3,000 war horses and pack horses. Before they finished their journey, the Heer camp, which was the vanguard of the Jie Army, had already crossed Qiduhebei and disappeared. It only made people feel that an unprecedented power completely enveloped the ground in Youyan!

After the Baiye soldiers were out in sequence, the vanguard began to cross the river, and Xiao Yan's figure was covered in armor at the west gate. His image today was also extremely formal. It turned out that he was just a black iron helmet like the armored soldiers. Today, he was also a golden helmet, dazzling. Behind him, Yue Fei on the left and Han Shizhong on the right. Originally, Yue Fei was forced to stay for rest by Xiao Yan, and he was the main one to guard Tanzhou. However, Yue Fei was unwilling to be killed. Tang Huai and Zhang Xian, the guys who were also injured, also looked like they wanted them to stay and die for Xiao Yan to see, so they had to go to war together. Yu Jiang was very depressed and stayed in Tanzhou.

Xiao Yan's armor was dark and his cloak was blood red. When they were combined together, they naturally had a majestic temperament. All the people around the city gates watched Xiao Yan from the shock and fear brought to them by the Baiye soldiers. They also saw the white-faced Fang County Magistrate who respectfully sent him behind Xiao Yan. They bowed down and prayed loudly: "Magistrate Xiao has achieved success, and Fang County Magistrate Duke and Marquis will be born!"

Xiao Yan immediately rode on the suspension bridge and looked back at Fang Teng Ma Kuo who sent him out. Ma Kuo was carried by a carriage. He was injured too much and had several ribs broken. It was already a great fortune to not die. No matter how hard he supported, he would never participate in this decisive battle with the Jurchens.

Fang Teng's face was calm, and Xiao Yan also looked confident. Only Ma Kuo, but his pale appearance was full of worry. He looked like he had a lot of things to say, but was afraid that he would slow down his morale.

Xiao Yan bowed to the two of them: "Brother Fang, Brother Ma, I'm going. The Tatars took the alliance and attacked my territory. Although they had dealt with them, they still refused to leave now. If they don't hurt them, these Tatars don't know how powerful they are! Just wait with mercy and don't defeat the Tartars, Xiao Yan will come back to see everyone without any face!"

Fang Teng smiled and bowed: "Xiao Xuanzan is here to seal the wolf's servants, and he will not wait for us to pray for good. Click to break the Tatars early, and then run south early, and make great contributions to Yanjing. I am still waiting for Xiao Xuanzan to go and get it immediately!"

Xiao Yan laughed loudly and waved immediately: "Yu Jiang!"

Yu Jiang, who had always been low-key, rode his horse out from behind Fang Teng and Ma Kuo. When he was captured by Xiao Yan, he was wearing a pair of broken trousers. When the sun was in a down-and-out Changsheng Jundu head, he was now wearing a helmet and armor, with a big red battle robe dancing, like a general of the Song Dynasty. He even began to erect beards, as if he was going to be powerful.

Xiao Yan smiled and said, "It's time to get a font size. The nickname of Yu's crotch is so that's a little bit... I've given it to you in Tanzhou, but half a corner is missing. Senator Ma Xuanzan's side has any damage. I'll make you unable to even wear a broken crotch! Do you understand?"

Yu Jiang saluted respectfully on the right hand: "Xuanzan, let me leave Tanzhou. If I don't have the rushing wheel, I will accept it. I really can't compare to Han Du Yuhou and Yue Du Yuhou. If it was a Tanzhou, Xiao Xuanzan and Senator Fang would have such a great situation. I would have a few long and two shorts. If Xiao Xuanzan comes back, I would cut my neck by myself!"

Xiao Yan laughed: "I can trust you! But in just one sentence, how did you come from the name of Yu's crotch?"

The flying and intense nature that had been hidden in his heart for twenty-six years, once it was completely aroused, it would never be taken back. At this moment, Xiao Yan knew that he had been a human being for two lifetimes.

He said lightly: "The soldiers who were alone in Gubeikou who were stalwart and died in the gates are there. Gubeikou is close to Gubeikou and encounters Jurchen Taurus. Before Xiao's banner, he fought to the death without looking back. If the Taurus doesn't go, Xiao will go south to compete for me. What will these soldiers think of me? If the Taurus is not expelled from the land of Youyan, Xiao will definitely not look south!

As for Yanjing, as for Xiao’s future fate, it depends on the sky. Xiao has been fighting with this thief God until now, so I don’t believe it, but I can’t resist this thief God!

Now what Xiao is thinking is to defeat the Tartars before he can. Brother Ma, you don’t need to say more. Wait for Mr. Xiao’s good news!"

The generals behind Xiao Yan heard Xiao Yan's arrogant words, silently pursed their lips and pressed the sword on their waists. A decisive look naturally appeared on their faces. Fang Teng nodded slightly, but Ma Kuo stood up from his shoulder chariot tremblingly, sat there, and bowed deeply to Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan returned the tribute lightly. He pulled his horse and turned his head, and half a man stood up and neighed in a long circle: "Go away, follow me north and kill Tartars!"

Before the roar was over, Xiao Yan had already rushed out like lightning. Han Shizhong, Yue Fei, Zhang Xian, Tang Huai and Niu Gao, all these names that will flash like stars on the sky in the future will follow him tightly. From time to time, an excited whistling sound came.

Ma Kuofangteng stood at the gate of the city and watched Xiao Yan leave behind. The brigade of Shenwu Changsheng Army's horse and stance rumbling by their side. From time to time, someone responded to Xiao Yan's last shout: "Go to kill the Tartars! Become a wife and a son!"

Fang Teng looked at Ma Kuo with a distant expression: "Maybe in this troubled time, there is also the end of the world where I came from. I really need such a person to save him... If Xiao Yan really returns to the army south, how could we both wait here? Brother Ma, what we can do now is to prepare for Xiao Yan if it is not good, we must keep his future position in the Song Dynasty. Once the naive falls, in my opinion, it depends on him!"

Ma Kuo was shocked and looked at Fang Teng: "Although Brother Xiao is a little famous, he has no foundation in the Song Dynasty. Brother Fang, with your great talent and your family background, do you really want to serve Brother Xiao?"

Fang Teng smiled and pointed at himself: "Why should I stay here for a student?" He compared the military power in front and the large group of Shenwu Changsheng Army horses passing by: "Even if I am a student, I am deeply addicted to the miracles and changes brought by Xiao Xuanzan, which made me want to keep chasing and watching. The battle between Xiao Xuanzan and this old fortune will see what other miracles he can create!"

On the banks of Gaoliang River, more than a dozen floating bridges have already shown shape on the wide riverbed. Small boats following the Liu Li River are like ants gathering near the floating bridge.

The civilians either led the boats to a row, then laid long wooden strips to fix the boats together, or reinforced the already formed floating bridges there. On and under the bridge, shouts, knocks, and the sounds of officers' supervision sounded in a ball.

In Gaoliang Hebei, there were already Song army sentry light cavalry cruising slowly there, covering the bridgehead on the north bank of the river, ensuring the safe construction of these dozen floating bridges.

Because Xiao Yan had taken most of the cavalry of the Song army north, there were not many light cavalry on the north bank of the river, and they also used infantry to make up their numbers. These infantry had set up deer forts on the bridgehead on the north bank of the river and erected wooden fences to prevent possible conflicts from the Liao people. In order to ensure their retreat safety, the river bank was filled with wooden basins and stakes and various floating ferry equipment, ready to escape to cross the river at any time.

However, although the progress of the pontoon bridge was slow, Liu Yanqing ordered the northward to cross four days later. Now on the fifth day, these dozen pontoon bridges were still half apart from the other side. However, the Liao people were surprisingly quiet and did not come to challenge the bridgehead at the most fragile time. The soldiers guarding the north bank of the river all wandered around, lying on the river bank in groups of three or three to bask in the sun. They covered their faces with felt hats and slept. The officers also tortured the slow progress of the pontoon bridge to lose their temper and were too lazy to take charge. They followed them to hide there.

The south bank of the river is not much better than the north bank of the river. The soldiers of the brigade, because of Liu Yanqing's order, had already left his camp. When they approached the river bank, they found that the floating bridge was not over, and only hedgehogs gathered on the river bank. Last night, another rain was caused, and everyone scolded. Now, smoke was rising everywhere on the south bank of the river. The soldiers of the Song army were cooking on the spot, and there were "buzzing" discussions everywhere, as if this place had become a big beehive.

"How could the floating bridge be built so slowly, let the master eat here!"

"These Western Hebei civilians have been following us in the northern expedition for seven or eight months. Who knows a little about the military formation? Looking at the north bank of the river, we were only a few light riders on the wards and provoked, and everyone was worried and ready to turn around and run away at any time. How could this move be done quickly? There were still several floating bridges under construction in the Baigou River, so we rushed north. As a result, the defeat fell down like a mountain, and many civilians could not escape and were killed by the Liao people. If our soldiers were in the army, if the officials were in good conscience, they would be somewhat relieved. They were conscripted and served. If they died, they would die in vain and their families would not be able to lose a pension!"

"It is said that Shangguan also deducted their daily salt and vegetable money and food rations. Every day, it was four-million rice beans, 460 cents. As a result, there was no shortage of rice beans, and even half a quid was not seen! It is said that those officials from all over the Hebei routes, who saw that the Liao people did not even defend Gaoliang River, could not fight for the war long and there were not many opportunities to make money. Anyway, these civilians were about to be dismissed, so they just seized the opportunity to make a final profit. If they were not looking for food, how could they expect others to work hard? As a result, we suffered from the sky and earth here!"

"It's just that they have been deducted! Our Grand Marshal Liu is not bad like those lucky officials! If we go out in a team and fight in such a big battle, how can we not be rewarded? But this time we are not seeing each other. The personal guards around Liu made a noise, and Grand Marshal Liu has hidden it. This old guy is not greedy for money sooner or later, and this time he is greedy for money! He also said that Yanjing's wealth and goods have accumulated. Our Huanqing Army has made money in Jiangnan. This reward is worth nothing. Let us go to Yanjing City and rob it... We are also preparing to cross the river and behead our heads. Even if the court rewards are not much, we will be deducting us. Why did we deduct us?"

"I think that Grand Marshal Liu will not be distracted from the morale of the army at this time. Maybe the reward has not yet been transferred... I am only worried about one thing. We will cross the Huanqing Army alone, and the Qin Feng Army and Xi and the army of Jingyuan Army are all transferred from Yanjing far away. It seems that our Huanqing Army is able to make achievements, but if the Liao people fight back, it will be our Huanqing Army's own family! There is not even a helping hand. How can the other three armies not be disheartened? How can they take the initiative to support? Now everyone is comfortable, and only when they fight will they know it looks good! You haven't seen that so many envoys, the commander of the Yuhou, are all listless. Who wants to cross the bird river alone?"

Of course, there was no result in the scattered discussion. It was just that everyone was full of complaints and the morale of the army became even more slackened. When it was in a turmoil, someone heard a low message: "Master Liu is here, come to Henan in person to see the situation of our crossing the river!"

The sound of the message was heard in an instant. Most of the soldiers who were lazy jumped up and scolded loudly, making the soldiers under their command look a little more and cheered up. The stove that was finally ignited was extinguished with a scoop of water. The soldiers were hungry and had to line up to welcome Liu Yanqing, and everyone was cursing in a low voice.

"This is rare. On the Baigou River that day, Yelu Dashi Xiao Gan and others lined up in Hebei, and he would never see the Grand Marshal coming forward. This time, the Liao people on the north bank of the river were missing, but we always saw the Grand Marshal!"

"Zhi Madam, if you have a proofreading, you won't be able to come down in less than three or two hours. It's easy to get a stove after the rain? The Taiwei is here, and my stomach is hungry!"

Such complaints were finally stopped by the officers' scolding. The Song army in the brigade stood up and lined up on the open space on the south bank of Gaoliang River, stretching out for several miles. Wherever they saw, there were crowds of people. The officers with higher ranks were already on their horses in a panic and went out to meet the road. Soon, they saw the chariots and horses roaming with flags. Liu Yanqing did not ride a horse, but came over in a huge carriage pulled by sixteen horses.

The carriage is decorated in gorgeous shape and there is a veranda around it. Liu Yanqing stood in the veranda holding a jade belt and watching the Huanqing army lineup under his command. There were several confidants standing beside him, whispering to each other. It seemed that his subordinates were flattering Liu Yanqing's army's great power and successful battle.

After the rain last night, the south bank of Gaoliang River was quite muddy. This huge carriage was difficult to move around. Liu Yanqing's personal guards dismounted, pushing and pulling the carriage desperately, and everyone rolled like a mud monkey.

Before the army was in front of the battle, everyone was angry with the soldiers and small officers under Liu Yanqing. Liu Yanqing was also a powerful general back then, not that he didn't know that those who were on the same level of desire won. But he felt comfortable that he had lived a hard life for more than ten or twenty years. This time he was able to go to the front of the enemy. It was really not easy. What's more, the Liao people didn't even defend Gaoliang River. What else could Xiao Gan do if he gave up such a natural danger? There was no need to act like he was facing a great enemy, let alone that there was no civil official of the Song Dynasty who came to the front line, so he was respected here. What else would he have to worry about?

The officers who were waiting for him were dismounted and walked in front of him, raising their faces and waiting for Liu Yanqing to inquire at any time. Liu Yanqing occasionally looked at them, and they all tried their best to give him good words, which made Liu Yanqing laugh from time to time.

In a short while, this magnificent carriage and horse came to a floating bridge under the complicated gaze of the soldiers of Huanqing. Seeing the progress delay, Liu Yanqing's face darkened and shouted loudly: "What's going on? Is there anyone who delays the military plane? Can someone not want a head?"

The officers who supervised the worker on the pontoon bridge rushed over, knelt all over the ground, and kowtowed desperately. They all murmured: "The Taiwei. The north shore outpost is not many guards, and the civilians are scared and their hands are slow. In addition, the transport ambassadors deducted the civilians' salt and vegetables money, and everyone complained. If they beat this and lie down that, we will not supervise them effectively, which is a crime of death!"

Liu Yanqing endured his anger and cursed: "When is these stupid officials still greedy for this little profit! What's the value of taking over Yanjing?"

Even as his military general, he was almost at the peak of military officers and had the title of military governor. However, the sixth and seventh rank civil servants of the Song Dynasty had no choice but to grit their teeth at the moment: "Change some money and goods from the military capital, and we suffer losses for the military officials who were fighting against the emperor. We have to fight and pay for money. Let's make up for the salt and vegetable money first!"

He turned his head again and shouted to the soldiers near the left: "My sons! Mr. Xuan learned that our Huanqing Army was in front of the enemy and the rewards of the government stored in Xiongzhou had been transported to the front of the army. Sima of the army received the order of my general and guarded the entrance of this floating bridge. If one person crossed the bridge, he would get a reward! This reward is not worth much. Yanjing City is the southern capital of Liao people. It has been operated for more than a hundred years and has countless wealthy families. At that time, there will be the wealth of brothers! I took everyone from Shaanxi to Jiangnan and then to Youyan. The hard-working brothers will finally have a reward! Take down Yanjing and win the wife and son, not to mention! Everyone just work hard to move forward!"

Hearing the reward, the soldiers of Huanqing Army finally aroused a little morale and a sparse cheer sounded. Liu Yanqing didn't care much. He turned around and looked at Gaoliang Hebei, which was nowhere to be seen in Liao people, and so many generations of emperors in the Song Dynasty, and the Yanjing City, which had been hanging for more than a hundred years, was not far away!

Everything in front of me seemed to have been opened to him, just waiting for him to pick it up easily! In Liu Yanqing's mind, there was only such a thought left at this moment, and no one else could tolerate it anymore.

He laughed and pointed at the other side: "Xiao Gan, Xiao Gan, will be dead forever!"

The generals surrounded by their side made fun of each other, and they all laughed: "It's not the power of the Grand Marshal! If Xiao Gan knew about it, when our army appeared under the city of Yanjing, he should be surrendered! The official family is generous and can always give him a good end!"

Liu Yanqing laughed and waved his hand to order. After a brief patrol of chariots and horses, the team of chariots and horses who were about to cross the river to fight in the bloody battle, did not delay for a moment, and returned in a magnificent manner as a Tathagata. In late autumn and early winter, it was the time to nourish the body. Liu Taiwei worked hard when he was young, and was injured, and his qi and blood were damaged. If he did not care about maintenance, how could he enjoy the life of such a hero and famous general in the future?

Everyone thought that since Liu Yanqing came to boost morale, he would not set up his camp here and urge the army to cross the river, at least he would have to delay a little longer, review the entire army and encourage him. Who knew that Liu Taiwei was probably too comfortable for too long. Although he could still make a decision at the moment, he forgot what he should do to command the army and turned around and went back like that!

The soldiers and officers watched Liu Yanqing's carriage and horses whistling away like this, and cursed themselves in their hearts for a while. They immediately dispersed with a "buzz" and continued to make fire and make meals. Compared to what they were just now, they were even more chaotic.

Not far away, Yao Gu led dozens of personal guards to the hills on the south bank of Ma, quietly watching the appearance of Huanqing Army. His Xihe Army also wanted to cross the river north, but he rushed straight to Lu County, claiming to be a break from the back of Yanjing. Yao Gu was unwilling to cross the river with Huanqing Army to join in the fun, so he asked for civilians and set up a crossing bridge in another place.

Yao Gu was another giant in the Western Army that was favored by the old and small races. His ability to lead the army was naturally far away from Liu Yanqing, who was no longer in the army. He was able to share the joys and sorrows with his subordinates, and his military discipline was strict. In the history that Xiao Yan knew, although Yao Gu was a little weaker in the battle, he was an outstanding player in rectifying the entire army. When the Jurchens went south during the Jingkang period in history, the old and small races died of illness and the elites of the Western Army disappeared, Yao Gu returned to Shaanxi, and in panic, the Shaanxi territories, which were left with only a few backbones, pulled up a strict Western army! Later, the Wu brothers, the famous generals of the Zhongxing period, guarded the Western Front of the Song Dynasty for a long time and defeated the Jin army repeatedly, which was actually due to Yao Gu's remains.

At this moment, Yao Gu's Xihe Army's performance was very different from the messy appearance of Huanqing Army. In addition to the civilians, Xihe Army also participated in the operation. At this time, the construction of the floating bridge was completed. The vanguard of the Xihe Army was crossing the river in a strict and silent manner. At each ferry, there were officers maintaining order. Even at the ferry, even if there was a temporary rest, there were camps, deep ditches and high trenches, meticulous. Even the outdoor stoves were arranged neatly. The brigades and horses were at the ferry and the people walked through the ferry. The two sides were mixed together and there was no chaos at all.

On the north bank of the river, Xihe army's sentry provoked far north. The bridgehead camps on the north bank of the river were all much more complete than the Huanqing Army.

Dozens of personal guards, behind Yao Gu, were also silent.

The way to lead a soldier is like refining alchemy to hatch eggs. The generals must be in the camp at any time and restrain their subordinates at any time. They must not be greedy for comfort. Once the control is lost, the morale of the army will become scattered and it will be difficult to deal with! Liu Yanqing's Huanqing army is the best example.

After watching for a long time, Yao Gu shook his head slightly: "Will we go to help him when this time? Old-spring husband, old-spring husband, you are too unconsiderable for your own family. We rescue Liu Yanqing, and he will never give us any credit! Xiao Yan went north and was stupid. Do you still expect Xiao Yan to come back to compete with Liu Yanqing for merit, can we sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight? Xiao Yan is too late! Instead of doing this, it is better to wait for Xiao Gan to be restrained by Liu Yanqing and I will go and rob the Yanjing!"

In the Zhangjiawu mansion, this place has become a place for Yinkeshu's military discussion. Yinkeshu did not stick to the custom of setting up a tent. Zhang Yichi tried his best to ask him to set up a camp in his own house, and Yinkeshu agreed without any hesitation. Zhang Yichi's family moved out, and there were still many clever servants and beautiful women in the house, many of which were the favorites of Zhang Daqiang. However, since Yinkeshu entered the house, he did not look at these servants and beauties.

The Jurchen soldiers and horses were successively from the Gubeikou. Not only did the Zhen Jurchen brigade have arrived, but even the new army infantry arrived in large numbers. These new army infantry were stuffed into various dock walls by Yin Keshu and acted as guardian forces. The Jurchen Iron Cavalry and the new army's light cavalry were all transferred out. While setting off a long distance south, they were on guard. In order to prevent these cavalry from being restricted by the Wubi Fortress, they could maintain their mobility at any time, and they could launch counterattacks at the most favorable time.

Everything was well organized by Yin Keshu. The morale of the army, which was a little fluctuating because the three people of Zongshe were killed, was hidden in the deepest part of Yin Keshu's majestic and commanding manner. Dong Dalang had also risen up and inspected the defense of the docks with Zhang Yichi. Since the Jurchen brigade arrived, Zhang Yichi had no idea. Anyway, he was tied to the same boat with the Jurchens. Yin Keshu's ability was enough to calm him down, so he had to do his best to support the supply of the Jurchen army to the south while maintaining defense with Dong Dalang.

He and Dong Dalang are both natives from Youyan. They know the mountains and rivers and terrain. It is best to extend the whistle to where to extend it. Both of them also provided a lot of opinions.

At this time, Zhang Yiqiu had only hope that the property that he spent on this time would be able to go south and regain back in the future after the Jurchens won. He dared not think about the land of commander Youyan. At least he had a qualification and ability to win Dong Dalang, who could take half of Youyan's military state. That was enough.
