Fifty miles east of Linlu, on the border of the county, there is a town called Northern Qi, which is under the jurisdiction of Linlu.

The town is not big and not crowded, but the environment is quiet, leaning against the mountains and water. However, due to the influence of the war, in this late spring, the whole town has no peaceful and beautiful atmosphere, and the tranquility of the town was completely destroyed by the sudden riots of war.

There were only a population of less than 100 households in the Northern Qi town. At this time, every family was closed, and the two main roads that intersected north and south were empty, which seemed particularly desolate. In fact, if the two passages from the town had not been blocked, the people in the town would have fled long ago.

In the northeast of the town, a rare open space between hills and hills was built in a hurry on the outer side. The people and horses were neighing, and the fresh horse manure was mixed with the fragrance of the soil, floating in the air. This was like a huge stable, raising people and horses in it.

In addition to the soldiers who were caring for horses, there were another 200 soldiers, who used the obstacles of mountains and rocks to build temporary Luzhai, and were wary of the enemies that were swarming and badly visited.

This team is naturally the team led by Luo Yanyan, who wanted to join Hedong. The route choice was not much different from what Lin Lu County Magistrate predicted to Liu Chengyou. It was just a twist and turns. When crossing the Huanshui north, it was forced to the Beiqi Town by the enemy from the east and could not move.

It was a bit coincidental that the army that came from the east was the rebel army led by Liang Hui, the thief commander of Cizhou who captured Anyang, Xiangzhou Prefecture. His purpose was of course these war horses.

Luo Yanyan was not very old, just a young man in his twenties, and his beard was quite dense, but from his body shape and temperament, he could tell that he was a warrior with certain force.

What was a bit surprising was that Han Tong was actually staying with them and looked very kind...

"Brother Luo, don't worry. I have sent someone to pass the situation here back to Lin Lu. The distance here is not far, and reinforcements will arrive soon. Those mobs are insignificant." On the high ridge, looking down from a high place, observing the "rebels" gathered in a group in the distance, Han Tong actively persuaded him.

Han Tong was wandering and exploring the Khitan military situation yesterday, and he ran into the west of Tangyin County. He noticed something was wrong and sent someone to test and communicate. He learned about his purpose and was very happy. He hurriedly sent someone to Lin Lu to deliver the letter, so he was sent to Liu Chengyou in one step.

Later, Yang Ye was asked to continue to reconnaissance of the enemy situation, and he led a team of cavalry and Yu Luo Yanqiu to escort the west. He was so attentive and proactive, so naturally it was for these war horses.

The "rebels" in the distance, with a rough sight, there were about 2,000 people making meals. Just looking at the arrangement of the camp and the morale performance, we can tell that it is really a mob.

Luo Yanqian grinned and said contemptuously: "I am not afraid of the Khitans. How could I be afraid of these bandits and thieves? If I hadn't been concerned about these horses, I would have led people to rush down..."

"General, as long as you give me the order, my brothers will rush out with you and defeat the bandits." A small school next to him immediately agreed with a little arrogant look on his face when he heard Luo Yanyan's words.

Luo Yanqiu slapped the back of the head and taught a lesson: "Now, it is the most important thing to save the war horses for me. Those bandits are not willing to live up to their lives. If these war horses are damaged, I will feel distressed!"

Luo Yanqian had a clear mind and clearly understood in his heart that these war horses were his accessory and were also powerful evidence for him to cleanse the stigma of "accomplishing the thief". He also had confidence that with this generous gift, he could definitely be accepted.

Luo Yanyin obviously has some knowledge. After all, he was also a general of the Jin army and the governor of a state. He was somewhat similar to Murong Yanzhao, but in history, he was not as outstanding as Murong Yanzhao.

In fact, in the original history, Luo Yanyin also chose this way. He brought his horse to Hedong, but no one appreciated him and had never been seen many favors. Later, he went through the Later Han and Later Zhou dynasties, and wasted more than ten years. It was not until he followed Zhao Kuangyin's Chenqiao mutiny that he was able to soar to the sky and be promoted to a senior general of the imperial guards. After two years, he was dismissed from his military post and acquired military power...

However, Luo Yanqian was still full of energy and eager to establish his achievements. He also had expectations for Liu Chengyou. After thinking about it, he asked Han Tong: "I heard that the prince is only seventeen years old?"

"Although Your Highness is not old, he is rigorous and upright when he is majestic. Brother Luo, don't underestimate him..." Han Tong's expression was a little serious, and his words imply a reminder.

"How dare you? I just sigh that your highness is a young hero. With such talent, how can Hedong not restore the country and the country?" Luo Yanyan explained, saying something complimenting that Liu Chengyou could not hear.

Han Tong glanced at him and said relaxedly: "Brother Luo, don't worry, if you lead everyone to offer such a gift from the emperor, your highness will be very happy. Then the spring breeze is proud, don't forget to come."

"How dare the newly surrendered people have extravagant desires? As long as your highness accepts it and has a place to live, I will be satisfied." Hearing this, Luo Yanyan said modestly, but the full expectation could be seen from his eyebrows.

Han Tong and this person really fell in love with each other at first sight. The answer was naturally no. While talking, the rest of the light kept glancing at the strong horses on the vast land behind the ridge.

Once these horses are filled into the army, it is conceivable that the cavalry team of the Longqi Army will be expanded again, and Han Tong is naturally promoted. After all, the contributions and hard work have been made throughout the journey. In his opinion, even if it is not good, he can officially become the commander of the cavalry of the first battalion.

"General, the thief army has sent people again. As long as we offer our horses, we can let us go..." At this time, a soldier rushed up the hill and reported.

Luo Yanqian waved his hand without thinking, "If you fight out in the future, these thieves are really fantastic!"

"It's just an ignorant thief!" Han Tong also looked disdainful: "I'm not satisfied with occupying Anyang, so I dare to fight these wars right away."

At the same time, Han Tong's face looked a little unfavorable. The two sides had also communicated, and Han Tong had already shown the banner of Hedong and Liu Chengyou, but it seemed that it did not play much role.

......

Two miles away from the town, very close to the "Rebel Army" camp, the same noisy thing was just a kind of casual noise.

Looking at the messenger who was beaten to the point of being blue and swollen, the thief Liang Hui was angry and vented with an ugly expression: "I am already very proud of my face. Since I don't know the current affairs, don't blame me for being cruel!"

Liang Hui's skin is quite white, his heaven is full, and his appearance is really good. He can't tell at all that he is a thief. But with his mouth, the image of a small man appeared.

He walked in a few steps under his hands impatiently, turned his head and ordered angrily: "Tell me the order, let the brothers eat, and then launch an attack. I easily took down Anyang City. How can this small town stop me?"
