"Your Majesty is in Shenshan County ahead!" As soon as the Liao army arrived, several spies hurriedly reported back.
"How do you know?" Yelu Dashi sat on his horse and asked hurriedly.
"A few days ago, the Han people surrounded Your Majesty and entered Shenshan County. Many people saw it at that time!" The spy knelt on the ground and said.
During the Song and Liao Dynasties, the grasslands of Inner Mongolia were not as desolate as those of later generations. There were many cities here at that time, such as world-famous cities such as Shangjing and Zhongjing. Needless to say, Shenshan County was also a city on the grasslands of Inner Mongolia during this era. Later, during the Jin-Liao War, the Song Dynasty
Liao War
Many wars such as the Mongolian-Jin War and the Mongolian-Jin War destroyed all the cities on the grasslands of Inner Mongolia. The civilization that once appeared on the grasslands of Inner Mongolia also disappeared. The Khitan people were completely extinct.
Destroyed.
At this moment, Shenshan County is safe and sound! Although this is a small county, it is surrounded by mountains and the terrain is extremely important.
There are also many corpses of Xixia people here, and there are also some Xixia people who escaped hiding in remote places. According to these Xixia people, they also saw the emperor of Liao passing here a few days ago.
"The Han people are constantly appearing here to support Your Majesty. It seems that they must have set up an ambush in the mountains ahead! Therefore, we must not enter the mountains ahead." Yelu Dashi summoned the generals and said.
"Are we just going to sit back and watch His Majesty fall into the hands of the Han?" A Liao general stood up and asked coldly.
"After all, there are only 40,000 to 50,000 Han people. Even if there is an ambush, it is not terrible! The reason why the Xixia people were defeated is because the Xixia people were fleeing, so they were caught off guard. As long as we use our troops carefully, we are not afraid of them!" Xiao Yupo!
The way to have confidence.
Hearing Xiao Yu's words, the rest of the Liao generals nodded. Except for Yelu Dashi and a few of his cronies, almost everyone supported Xiao Yu.
"I think we still need to think carefully!" Yelu Dashi said.
"Lord Yelu, our army still has 120,000 soldiers and horses. I will lead 80,000 soldiers and horses into the mountains to besiege Shenshan County and rescue Your Majesty! You will guard the outside with the remaining 40,000 people! Second Prince, the Han people are fierce, I don't know
Are you willing to support us?" Xiao Yu said coldly to Yelu Dashi. At the end of his words, he turned his eyes to Wanyan Zongwang, the second prince of the Jin Kingdom.
"Since General Xiao is determined to go, I don't think it's better to do this. I'll send 20,000 Jurchens to follow you! With my Jurchens here, no amount of Han people can be our opponent." Wanyan Zongwang thought for a long time before he said.
.
"Thank you so much, Second Prince!" Xiao Yu said with great joy in his heart.
He had seen what happened to the Xixia people along the way, and he had long understood the strength of Liangshan. If he only had 80,000 people, he might not dare to enter the mountain, but with the help of 20,000 Jurchens, he would not be able to go into the mountain to rescue Liangshan.
The emperor of the country has no problems.
Seeing that Wanyan Zongwang decided to assist Xiao Yu with 20,000 troops, Yelu Dashi lowered his head, clenched his fists, and didn't know what he was thinking.
"This is my general, Wanyan Yinshu, and he will lead his troops to go with you! The Han people should not be underestimated. They must be careful and cautious at every step!" Wanyan Zongwang said.
"Second Prince, don't worry, I will definitely use my troops carefully." Xiao Yu said with a smile.
******
In the afternoon, Xiao Yu led 80,000 Liao troops, and Jurchen general Wanyan Yinshu led 20,000 Jurchens into the mountains ahead.
They were indeed extremely cautious in their march this time. They sent countless spies to the front, back and left, and the entire army was on alert as soon as they encountered any trouble! For those places with dangerous terrain, they all detoured. If they really couldn't detour, they would definitely have to do so.
First send a small group of soldiers over, wait until this small group of soldiers is safe, then slowly increase the number of troops and let more troops pass over.
Xiao Yu was also a famous figure in the Song and Liao dynasties, and he was considered a veteran general. As for Wanyan Yinshu, he was one of the brave generals among the Jurchens. They had both led troops for many years, and their experience in leading troops was compared to Yelu Dashi.
The commander-in-chief of Xixia is much stronger.
"A mere 40,000 to 50,000 Han people are nothing! But we don't have much military rations, so we must kill all the Han people within two days, and then rescue the emperor of Liao Kingdom!" Wanyan Yinshu and Xiao Yu stood there
Watching the troops passing by below on a large rock, Wanyan Yinshu spoke.
"General Wanyan, didn't you say that military rations are being transported in this direction?" Xiao Yu said.
"It should be like this, but we haven't seen any military rations yet! Zhongjing is too far away from here, and it will take a long time to transport the military rations." Wanyan Yinshu said.
Xiao Yu nodded, his eyes swept over the Liao army below, and suddenly there was a hint of excitement in his heart.
"We Liao people have gone through countless wars, and only about 100,000 people are left in the original army of one million! However, those eliminated are all weak, and those who are left now are the strongest! What the Han people are good at is conspiracy.
Conspiracy, we are on the move step by step and be careful, we will definitely be able to defeat the Han army in Liangshan in one fell swoop! Heaven and earth,
Only I, the Khitan, are the strongest. It doesn’t matter if we lose Yanyun. As long as we save the emperor, it is not impossible to regain Yanyun in the future. In a few decades, we will still enslave and oppress the Han people! I don’t believe that this cowardly nation can become strong.
They are destined to be trampled under our feet by these ethnic groups in the north!" Xiao Yu said secretly.
Pharmacist Guo is also in the army this time, but now he no longer has the right to command 50,000 soldiers. He can only command 20,000 soldiers now. Now he is also following Xiao Yu, but he is looking below
The soldiers were not in the same mood as Xiao Yu. He had already remembered how his resentful army failed. The soldiers in front of him were not as strong as the resentful army. How could they defeat the Han people?
"General Guo, you seem a little scared?" Xiao Yu turned to look at Pharmacist Guo and asked coldly.
"Master Xiao, the Liangshan army is extremely ferocious, I am indeed a little scared." Guo Yaoshi sighed and said.
"Humph, coward! You were defeated by the Han once, are you always afraid? Are you still a Khitan man?" Xiao Yu said coldly with a sarcastic smile on his face.
In the past, Yaoshi Guo and Xiao Yu were on an equal footing. He had fifty thousand of the most elite resentful troops in the Liao Kingdom, and his status was extremely high. But now, his status is not as good as Yelu Dashi, nor is he as good as Xiao Yu in front of him. He does not dare to compete with him.
Xiao Yu argued, but immediately lowered his voice
He lowered his head. But he was cursing in his heart. He was not a "Khitan man" at all. He was a remnant of the Bohai Kingdom. His country had been destroyed by the Khitans for hundreds of years. He was just born in the Liao Kingdom.
He had no choice but to work hard for the Liao Kingdom.
"Master Guo, as long as we Jurchens are here, the Han people are nothing. Just stand aside and watch how we defeat the Han people." Wanyan Yinshu laughed loudly.
Pharmacist Guo lowered his head and looked ferocious. In his opinion, although the Jurchens were strong, they might not be able to defeat the Liangshan army. This time he had already made plans to protect himself wisely. If he really encountered the Liangshan army, he would hide.
Standing aside, watching them fight fiercely with the Liangshan army.
"You are so arrogant and arrogant, and now you are not willing to treat Liangshan as an opponent equal to yourself, or a stronger opponent than yourself. How can you be undefeated?" At this moment, Yaoshi Guo suddenly had this feeling in his heart.
idea.
The two men used their troops carefully and walked for more than a day, passing through countless canyons and low-lying areas, but they did not encounter an ambush. They were a little surprised.
Gradually, the army was not far from Shenshan County.
The county seat of Shenshan County is located in a flat land, which can be regarded as a basin in the mountains.
Emperor Yelu Yanxi of the Liao Kingdom is indeed here, and so is Yue Fei. All kinds of intelligence are constantly sent here, and they already have a general understanding of the number of enemy troops.
"Legion commander, they are too cautious in using their troops. It is impossible for us to lead them into an ambush! What should we do?" Liu Guangshi frowned when he came to report the battle situation.
"In this case, let's attack the strong with force." Yue Fei said calmly.
"To attack the strong with force?" Liu Guangshi said in surprise.
"Today, our military strength in Liangshan has far surpassed that of the Liao people. We conquered Yanyun all the way, but except for the 10,000 cavalry led by me, the rest of the infantry did not go through many fierce battles. Now that we have
If we have completely surpassed them, we should not be afraid of a fierce battle. The Liao people have always thought that we rely on strategy to win, and today we will let them see how powerful we are. It’s time for our soldiers to get some good training on the battlefield," said Yue Fei.
He didn't take those Khitans seriously. If only the Khitans came, he wouldn't even bother to say the four words "attack the strong with force." Liangshan is very strong, and the Khitans are so weak, how can they be called a
Strong? Now that the Jurchens are here, it can still be considered a strong army.
, according to the information he received, the number of Jurchens is only ten to twenty thousand, and now it is just time to use these people to train their infantry. An iron-blooded army needs to be constantly tempered and improved in war, and gradually it can become
Become a truly powerful army.
"We will launch an attack tonight and mobilize our soldiers now," Yue Fei said.
"Okay!" Liu Guangshi agreed hastily.
Chapter completed!
