Chapter 48 Miracle (III)

In the darkness, the sound of footsteps stepping across the grass leaves came. In the darkness, a team of Song soldiers were seen walking step by step on the ground.

This team of people and horses were not wearing armor, but were just wearing iron helmets. The Shengjie Army was Baiyu, and the Baiyao soldiers were Hongying. It was a small sergeant team of mixed marshals. Originally, this kind of mission should have been the responsibility of the Shengjie Army of the Light Cavalry. However, Xiao Yan had too few Shengjie Army at hand. After leaving Zhuozhou, he opened the cavalry search screen with all his strength and had to let the Baiyao soldiers share part of the task. Xiao Yan and Ma Kuo led only more than 250 cavalry to the main palace rear.

In Zhuoyi and the two states, the cavalry ran with all their might, but it took only two days to arrive. But Xiao Yan was not crazy enough. He just held the itinerary and sent a brigade of sentry to drive the way west while moving forward. He was extremely cautious.

Even if he made such a arrangement, everyone was still nervous. No matter how many times he made a whistle, there were tens of thousands of elite enemy troops in the west. They always had to crash into it and win this battle unless a miracle happened!

So the sentry squads sent out were more refined. Once they discovered the Liao brigade, according to Xiao Yan's promise, everyone would run away. I really don't know if they were hoping to meet the Liao brigade or not to meet these sentry squads.

Under the faint star and moonlight, I saw the Shengjie soldier walking in front of me throwing away the reins and lying on the ground, sniffing like a dog. Behind him was the robes of a white soldier. They were so rushing to the front and heavy cavalry that they never did such a job. Looking at it fresh, they lowered their voices and cursed: "Did you want to hear if there is a bitch peeing? You want to go to Wazi and Sa's house to go back to Hejian to invite you..."

The old man in front turned around and cursed: "The thief is a prisoner! There are carriages and horses passing by, and there are always horse traces... Can I still raise the fire to observe? This swallow land tastes different from our Qinfeng Road. It smells like mud and can't smell anything!"

The white-legged soldier behind him shrank his neck and looked around. From Zhuozhou to Yizhou, there were more mountains and more hills and hills. Along the way, the original villages and towns were all abandoned and the traces were still fresh. It can be imagined that Xiao Gan's army went west and had all wrapped up the people here to join the army! The shadows of trees swayed around, and the wind whistled across the treetops, with no trace of people. The hazels were vast, as if the heaven and earth had just begun to be established.

"…………………………………………………………………………” The white soldier complained in a low voice. Before Lao Ren could speak, he seemed to hear a slight sound from the wind. He was half-kneeling on the ground and thrust his hand back: “Stop the sound!”

This team was composed of four scenic spots and two white soldiers. The victorious army immediately lie down with their horses. The trained war horses moved their ears, and they followed them with gentleness. However, the two white soldiers couldn't help but pull the armor bags carried behind the horses. However, Lao Ren shouted fiercely but extremely lowly: "Don't move! Look at the horses!"

Everyone calmed down, and even the war horses erected their ears. The sound from the front was extremely weak. It was the sound of the horse chewing beans. The war horses in the army should not be ignored. Just letting the horses green, the war horses are powerless. Especially at night, they have to add materials without any impact. The more they love horses, the more they are, the more they are.

The low chewing sounds in front of the front were connected, with at least ten horses. But no one was talking or laughing. If it weren't for the sharp ears of Lao Ren and the veteran in coaching horses, no one would have noticed that there was someone in the darkness ahead!

Lao Ren made a gesture to the back, asking everyone not to move, but he stood up gently and climbed upwards towards a small hill in front. When he reached the uphill, he had already leaned down and climbed up with his hands and feet. This also shows that Shengjie Army is really well-trained. In the night, people are on a high place, and the light of the sky is the most easily recognized. Lao Ren did not save the effort to walk, but just climbed up gently. He was hidden among the plants and trees, and no one could see where he had climbed. Everyone squatted behind, only feeling a heart as fluffy as a drum beat, and the sound was so loud that even the whole world could hear it.

Did they run into the Liao army here? After the Liao people learned that Zhuozhou was invaded, they mobilized a brigade to counterattack?

I don’t know how long it took to see Lao Ren climbing down the hill, getting up and bent over and touching it back. He waved his hands from afar, and everyone squatted down. When he came over, he heard Lao Ren press his voice to the lowest point: "A dozen or so far stops! I can’t see clearly, but I will never smell the smell of more than a dozen horses! The Liao army is here!"

The men led by Xiao Yan and the men sent by Xiao Gan opened the search screen of the cavalry almost at the same time, but they bumped into the night, and were close to the point where they could breathe!

I don’t know who whispered: “Go back and report to the two of you!”

Lao Ren shook his head, "What are we? We are sentry detectives. One is to explore the enemy's military information, and the other is to stop the opponent's sentry detectives. Now there are more than a dozen long stops, and the Liao brigade has not come yet. What military information should we repay? We cannot let the long stops touch forward and find out the reality of our army! We choose a good terrain to ambush the horses. These long stops are feeding the horses and resting. We always have to go to the forward striker and kill his mother again...... We can't let them touch them so swayingly! The army cannot act at night, and our opponents are only a dozen. We must be lucky and can earn a few heads to reward merit!"

The few people were speechless after hearing this. Lao Ren just directed them and slowly retreated carefully. He chose a small hill that strangled the passage and tied the horse to the forest at the foot of the hill. However, they held bows and knives, and just chose a good terrain to hide. Several people all turned in one direction and took everything around them into their eyes. No matter which direction the Liao people were moving far away, they could find it.

If they happened to pass by their feet, they would have been laughing at them. If the Liao people stopped their troops in other directions and went to report their military information, it would not be too late.

Several people were lying in the grass. The white soldier who had joked with Lao Ren before looked at Lao Ren squatting under a tree, but his eyes were bright and motionless. He couldn't help but admire him, and quietly touched him, whispering: "Lao Ren, you are a good player! You are usually depressed, but you are hard at this time!"

Lao Ren smiled without saying a word: "The eleventh year of fighting man... The family has been a horse army for generations. When he entered Qin Fengjun, he would eat the horse's meal... and the Western Xia Iron Harrier touched each other in Hengshan for eleven years, and he had no chance to practice... Follow Xuan Shuai and ran away. It doesn't taste any good to fight for him. Now that little face Xuan Zan can sacrifice his life, and he has no fear at all against the bird King Xiao of Liao. The fighter admires Shangguan, who has a kind of talent, and can he not show all his skills?"

The white soldier raised his thumbs up and asked in a low voice: "Is there really a chance of winning?"

Lao Ren laughed softly: "How do I know? But I can't say that Xiao Xuanzan is going crazy...Who will lead 400 soldiers north at this time and rob Zhuozhou! Since they can sacrifice their lives, what can we do to fight against the Han people?"

He still looked into the distance and sighed: "I hope Xiao Xuanzan's life is strong enough!"

The two of them were talking in a low voice, and suddenly they heard louder sounds, and the sound of horse hooves scattered, beating at night, making it look particularly clear. Lao Ren's face changed and he waved his hand to let the white soldier return to his position, but he just whispered to himself: "The Liao people are so unscrupulous?

At this time, the sound of horse hooves not only sounded from the direction where the distance was discovered just now. There were horse hooves gathering here in other places. Under the glimmer of stars and moon, you can see several teams of remote whistle-strikes gathering here!

Several people didn't even dare to show their momentum, but just lie in the deep grass. They saw that these faraway slams emerged from somewhere in the night, and the low whistles sounded corresponding to each other. The war horses also made a light breathing sound. As they saw more and more gathering, they controlled the traffic road near this passage, and were on guard. Several faraway hedgehogs gathered under the hill where they were hidden. Although these faraway slams had almost become instinct, the sound made at night was not loud, and few were chatting and laughing. However, dozens of horses gathered together, and exposed their traces so much, they still showed arrogance. They didn't look like they opened the search warning curtain and carefully checked step by step. They were just driving forward for the army and controlling the road ahead!

In the grass, Lao Ren dared not show his energy, and only his eyes were nervously staring at everything in front of him. It seemed that these far-distance blocks did not know their existence at all, nor did they imagine that after the opponent grabbed Zhuozhou, they would dare to challenge their army westward, and drove over with such a swagger!

This old man was an old man who had been fighting with the Xixia people and the Qiang people of Qingtang for 11 years on the Hengshan line. He had to go through many times in a year when he was on the battlefield, cage battles, mountain battles, and long garrison battles. He was also selected to join the Shengjie Army for many years and had double food and salary. He had been between the troops since he could remember, and after joining the Qinfeng Army, he had lived on horseback. The experience was rich. When he saw the scene in front of him, he knew that this was the bold and arrogant Liao people. The army actually came at night and attacked Zhuozhou. He was not used to go forward to the far post, but he just discovered the road ahead and controlled the road, but opened a small front. They did not consider that there would be opponents coming towards them.

It was normal for the Liao people to react like this. They were very fast and they had already counterattacked as soon as they got the news of the fall of Zhuozhou. According to their understanding of the Song army, the Song army, which had many infantry soldiers, had no room for movement in such a short time. However, they did not expect that their attack on Zhuozhou this time were also full of cavalry with strong mobility, and there was also a mad commander named Xiao!

The front of the Liao people was narrow, almost a marching vanguard line. Although Xiao Yan made a bold decision, he was cautious in marching and combating. He opened the front of the large number of the siege. With width to narrow, the Song army was naturally more informed. However, the team like Lao Ren, who had collided with the Liao people, made people sigh that they were not lucky. Who knew that the Liao people just identified the direction they were in and came here like this! Not to mention making a fuss, their number of people was far from enough to fight back!

Everyone turned their eyes to Lao Ren and silently asked what to do. The only option now is to retreat quickly and inform the main force that the Liao people had already come up!

Lao Ren just lay in the grass without saying a word, without making any noise. The Liao people were scattered all over the road, facing the guards, only seeing figures coming and going. I don’t know how long it took, but when people felt their heartbeat was about to stop. Suddenly, the sound of muffled thunder came from afar. The Liao people’s brigade finally came up. They really marched at night, preparing to attack the Song army in Zhuozhou. They were caught off guard!

Hearing the sound from behind, the far stoppers were whistling around and contacted them, and they all drove their horses to respond to them. One of them even probed the outposts and inserted a signpost along the way. The signposts were pointed at both ends, with white wooden sticks painted on them, which were also quite eye-catching in the dark night. The Liao people used this as the direction of the march. After all, they were elites who had been through battle formations for a long time. No matter how arrogant they were, they were not as good as marching at night.

Near the place where Lao Ren and his friends hid, the far stalk finally left. The squad squad hiding in the grass finally felt relieved, and everyone felt that the vest was cold and cold sweat. These far stalks came and went like ghosts. They were full of people just now, but now they were quiet. Only the sound of thunder like a distance was heard constantly, and the sound of horse hooves hit the earth, and the places beneath were shaking slightly, as if they could hit people's hearts.

"Old Ren, let's go! It's too late any longer!"
