Chapter 197: Return to Anqing (Part 1)

"Boss, there is a stone beam in front of me. I crossed the stone beam." Yan Xiaoyi said happily. A few days ago, in order to find out the news, he appeared on both sides of Tanzhou and Anqing, and he touched the terrain here.

.

"Okay, brothers, I have crossed the stone beam. We have rested for a few hours and dressed up and returned to the stone castle with a spirit!" Yun Zhao laughed loudly. This time, he was successful and lost the food and grass.

In desperation, he had to retreat. After failing to pursue the attackers in a crazily, he retreated to the edge of Anqing. Without food and grass, Tutuo was worried that the defenders from Anqing and Shibao would chase him out. This time, his attack was not only

I didn't get Anqing and lost the food and grass on which I depended for survival. The military questioned Tuotuo in the army, especially the soldiers of the small tribe. If the patriarch had not been detained in the hands of Guo Luo's troops, it would have been

They just raised their heads and opposed it.

In the failure, Tuotuo had to send an envoy to ask Wuda for help. At the same time, his soldiers attacked everywhere and plundered the surrounding areas, causing the already extremely poor people to be looted again, and they almost had no overnight food at home and resisted.

The waves are also coming one after another, and Tuotuo is exhausted and suppresses everywhere. The army needs to shock the soldiers of all units who are already extremely restless. They have to grab grain outside and deal with the resistance of the farmers. Tuotuo is exhausted and running.

, there was no more effort to attack Anqing. Looking forward to the future, Tutuo felt dim and Wuda would never remain silent about this failure.

After being ruthlessly massacred again and again, the surrounding people began to flee on a large scale, which allowed Anqing and Shibao to recruit many young and strong people, while the elderly, weak, women and children were arranged by Jiang Feng.

Kala Mountains entered the Hulu Valley to settle down. The number of soldiers in Anqing and Shibao increased a lot compared to before the previous war. Shibao already had nearly 3,000 soldiers. Of course, these young and strong men showed their passion.

In addition to his hatred, his combat effectiveness remained at the level of a mob. I guess there would be no war in the Stone Fortress for a while, Jiang Feng and Tu Xiong Tu Hu separated nearly half of the recruits into the Hulu Valley but trained and waited for them

After returning from training, another group of people will go.

Yun Zhao naturally didn't know about the consequences of the attack on Shilipu. Everyone was very happy to see that they were about to set foot on Anqing's territory.

But behind the joy, everyone was worried about the war in Tanzhou. These days, through some people who fled, everyone knew that Yumen Pass had been broken and most of the Mongolian army had entered Tanzhou.

"Yumen Pass is the gateway of Tanzhou, and the dangers of the pass are far better than those of Anqing. There are still tens of thousands of soldiers stationed in Tanzhou. How could it be so easily captured by the Mongolian army?" Su Dingfang was really confused.

"Tanzhou, Sima family?" Yun Zhao sneered: "Can these people fight? I'm afraid that when the Mongolian army arrived, they would have been scared to death." Yan Xiaoyi sneered: "Not everyone has General Yue, this is the case."

The courage to sacrifice one's life and forget to fight against others."

Su Dingfang shook his head and said, "There is something strange here. The soldiers in Tanzhou are not weak. Their equipment is far superior to our Anqing soldiers. Tanzhou has rich iron ore and copper mines. It is through these minerals that the Sima family was able to use them to a large scale.

Changing soldiers' dressing, the combat effectiveness of Tanzhou soldiers has been rising over the years. Besides, Shi Gandang, the guardian of Yumen Pass, is not a person with a reputation. This person is still somewhat talented and knowledgeable. More than 10,000 people guard Yumen Pass

, Why did it fall so quickly?”

Su Dingfang said to himself authentically.

Yun Zhao said: "Maybe the Mongolian army is re-producing the old tricks of Lucheng, just like Lucheng, in Yumen Pass, they lurked a large number of spies, or they bribed some generals of Yumen Pass, and with the support of the insider, Yumen Pass was only

It will be lost so soon.”

Su Dingfang sighed, "As soon as Tanzhou is lost, we will become a lonely army. We can only hope that after the spring is blooming tomorrow, Yizhou will be able to come to reinforcements."

"I hope so, but Brother Su, I have to be strong himself. I must not place my life and death on others. This time, Tutuo should not be able to attack us again, and the Mongolian army entering Tanzhou is going to deal with Sima

I hope the Sima family can resist longer, and Yizhou, Taizhou and other places that are adjacent to Tanzhou will inevitably lead to the border to prevent the Mongolian army from taking advantage of the situation to attack them. The Mongolian army faces great difficulties.

It can be settled in a corner. This period of time is too precious for us. We strengthen the city walls, repair the external defense, and train troops. Some of them are busy after returning."

Su Dingfang nodded, "Yes, Yun Zhao, you have made sense. We must at least ensure that even if there are no reinforcements from Yizhou, we can still defend Anqing. This is the last thought of the people on the frontier."

"Stop!" Su Dingfang, who was talking, was startled by Yun Zhao's sudden loud shout, and subconsciously stopped the horses, "Come back all!" Yun Zhao shouted loudly, Jiang Xuyan Xiaoyi, who was dozens of meters in front of them, turned around

He ran back, "Boss, what's the matter?"

Yun Zhao didn't say anything, but his eyes stared at the snow in front of him, "Look!"

Looking in the direction Yun Zhao pointed, there was a piece of snow, nothing?

"Boss, what's wrong with you?" Yan Xiaoyi asked in confusion.

Yun Zhao turned over and got off the horse, walked to the snow, pulled out Yi Shuihan, and pulled it hard on the ground. On the original snow, blood stains appeared in front of everyone.

Yun Zhao walked forward for more than ten steps, and a large piece of blood was turned out from the snow on the ground that Yi Shuihan passed.

Everyone took a breath of cold air. It was not peaceful now, and it was not surprising that there were snow marks on the ground, but if these blood stains were covered up, there would be a problem.

Yun Zhao narrowed his eyes, looked at the stone beam in the distance, and whispered: "I'm afraid that someone will be there on the stone beam."

With a thud, everyone drew out their weapons, "What should I do? Yun Zhao? I'm afraid the enemy in Tanzhou was informed and went around us to set up an ambush to intercept us. But why are there so many bloodstains here? Has there been a battle here

?”

Yun Zhao squatted down, looked at the blood on the ground, and shook his head after a while, "This is not the blood that flowed from the battle, it is the blood that flowed from the injury. Is it just a matter of fear?" His heart moved, "Is it because of the Tanzhou soldiers in Yumen Pass who missed the net

The fish escaped here?"

"Xiao Yi? Go and explore, pay attention to safety. If someone shows his identity, if it is not the Tanzhou soldiers at Yumen Pass, we will run away immediately. Fortunately, we were not in a hurry along the way, and there is still plenty of strength to fight the horses.

Otherwise, something will really go wrong.”

"Yes, boss!" Yan Xiaoyi clamped his legs and ran towards Shi Liangzi.

Behind the stone beam, about a thousand soldiers were lying on the ground, looking at the group of cavalry in the distance, Ding Jian's entire face was wrapped in bandages, he blinded his eyes, and half of the muscles on his face were also

After being stripped and bandaged, only one eye appeared in the whole head. At this moment, it was flashing with fierce light. Looking at the group of cavalry in the distance, hundreds of cavalry appeared at this place, which could only be a fool.

The army's troops. Looking at their destination, they wanted to cross the stone beams. If it were not forbidden,

Ding Jian would never want to have conflicts with his opponents. Although they still have more than a thousand people, they have been out of food for several days. The entire team is extremely weak, and most of them are injured. After retreating from Fengkou, they are all the way.

After fighting several battles with the pursuers, under Yao Meng's command, they killed a group of pursuers, but they also suffered a lot of losses and hundreds of brothers died. In the last battle, even Yao Meng was also

He was seriously injured and was lying on the lifting frame at this time, completely losing his combat power and was only hung in one breath.

After passing the stone beam, there was no danger to defend. In desperation, Ding Jian could only ambush here, hoping that when the enemy was caught off guard, a burst of arrows shot most of them down, so that the rest would not be afraid.

Fortunately, they have been carefully hiding their traces along the way, and the snow on the snow that they had been resting before was also covered up, but the enemy unexpectedly discovered it.

But what Ding Jian didn't want to happen happened. The group of cavalry stopped in the distance, and that place was where they had stayed. Seeing someone jump off the horse and slept on the ground.

After a while, looking up at Shi Liangzi, Ding Jian felt a sense of coldness. There were not many people on the other side, and there were only more than 200 cavalrymen at most, but now they were unable to fight against him.

Looking back at Yao Meng on the stretcher, he looked at the soldiers looking at him. Most of their eyes were numb, "After all, I can't escape!" Ding Jian sighed.

"General, there is a cavalry coming across from him!" The soldier beside him reminded, and Ding Jian smiled bitterly. The enemy is coming to test. "Come on the iron bow. As long as this guy runs closer, he will shoot him over with an arrow. At this time,

At this moment, kill one and make another one." He reached out and held the iron bow and pulled the bowstring. Ding Jian squinted his eyes and looked at the other party. The arrow shot out, and the enemy's charge would come next. Ding Jian even suspected that

Does his soldiers still have the power to shoot their bows at this time?

But the enemy was very cunning and ran up the gentle slope of the stone beam. The place where he stopped was just outside the range of the bow and arrow. Ding Jian felt even more miserable. Judging from the opponent's posture, it was clearly a training team.

Su's elite troops seemed to be the Mongolian army's whistle cavalry unit, Ding Jian thought in his heart.

"People who are hiding on the stone beam, don't hide your head and tail anymore. Your fox tail has been exposed. Get out and let grandpa see who you are?" Yan Xiaoyi asked with a big smile.

Hearing the call from the other side, Ding Jian was shocked. The other party actually said that it was Lu Cheng's local accent. Is it that the opposite side was not Meng Jun? He stood up slowly and looked at Yan Xiaoyi in the distance.

"Who are you?"

"Who are you?" Yan Xiaoyi asked back, but then he saw that the Kaijia on the other party was actually the standard equipment of the Great Yue soldiers. "Are you Tanzhou soldiers from Yumen Pass?"

Seeing that the other party had exposed the truth, Luzhou soldiers on the stone beam stood up all over, which scared Yan Xiaoyi. There were at least one or two thousand people on the stone beam. He couldn't help but retreat.

Take a few steps.

"We are not the soldiers in Tanzhou, we are the border troops in Lucheng! I am Ding Jian, who are you?" Ding Jian said loudly. At this time, when he heard the words "Soldiers in Tanzhou, his anger burned wildly.

Looking at the gray military uniform of the soldiers above, Yan Xiaoyi confirmed the other party's identity. He had no fondness for the Lucheng border army. The old leader died in their hands. Seeing their current appearance, Yan Xiaoyi actually had a heart.
Chapter completed!
