Last year, Liao and Mongolia worked together to enter the Song Dynasty. How long had it passed? Why did Meng Qi attack them?
But the person who came was really a quick guard from Shanyang City. Fan Quan knew this person and there was nothing wrong with him.
Not understanding what was going on, Fan Quan decided to send troops to rescue Shanyang City first. Of course, he did not forget to release the carrier pigeon before doing so.
Before this, the Liao people did not use homing pigeons very highly.
After all, it was always the Liao people who made trouble for others, but few people came to ambush them.
Since the emergence of Su Shi, cities in the Liao border have been attacked by surprise many times, and the people of the Liao Dynasty have begun to pay attention to the use of homing pigeons.
Nowadays, all larger cities have homing pigeons in case of emergency.
After writing down the situation, he tied it to the carrier pigeon and let it fly away. Following Fan Quan, he took three thousand cavalry and headed straight for Shanyang City.
Before leaving, Fan Quan handed over the safety of Shenwu City to his deputy general and asked him to guard the city with the remaining two thousand infantry. He also made it clear that unless he came back, he would never open the city, even if he came.
The rest of the Liao army couldn't do it either.
Who doesn't know that Su Shi is the best at using tricks to gain access to the city gate.
Although the one who came this time was not Su Shi's subordinate, who knew whether Meng Qi would learn these evil ways from Su Shi.
After arranging everything, Fan Quan went out to attack. With three thousand cavalry, he was full of confidence.
Having cavalry in hand represents an increase in mobility. In his opinion, even if he does encounter a Mongolian cavalry, he can still outrun the cavalry if he cannot defeat them.
Fan Quan didn't know that on his way forward, Yang Wenguang's 10,000 vanguard cavalry had already set up a net to wait.
Waiting for his prey to be caught.
Three thousand cavalry galloped all the way, and when they arrived at a mountain called Big Rock between the two cities, suddenly countless arrows flew out from both sides of the road, followed by a large number of enemy cavalry appearing at both ends of the road, completely surrounding them at the foot of the mountain.
.
"Mongolian knights? So many Mongolian knights?"
Seeing that he was surrounded, Fan Quan was shocked and turned back with his army.
At this time, how could he not see that the so-called rescue was a trap? It was clear that the man had deliberately let him out of the city and then ambushed him halfway.
It was only at this time that I came back to my senses, and it was somewhat too late.
The Pioneer Army has experienced these battles, and has become second only to the Black Cavalry. In addition, it has the advantage in strength and is well prepared, so how can it be possible to let the duck fly away.
"Kill! Leave no one behind." Yang Wenguang shouted and led the army to kill.
At the other end, Hu Yanqing held two maces in his hands, screamed loudly, and rushed forward.
The vanguard army was so brave and had high morale that during the attack, any Liao army that stood in front of them was either dead or seriously injured.
In contrast, the three thousand Liao cavalry who were surrounded were already in disarray and their morale had plummeted. The two sides in this battle were not at the same level at all.
A bloody battle lasted for two hours. Three thousand Liao cavalry, including General Fan Quan, were all killed under the giant stone mountain. Yang Wenguang, who was sprinkled with blood, laughed proudly.
"Quickly, clean the battlefield, catch up with the main force, and welcome the next battle."
I used to think that the Song people were weak and no match for foreigners.
Even if there are few villains in Xixia, they are the only ones
If you cause trouble for yourself, you can only defend yourself.
But since fighting with Su Shi, Yang Wenguang's idea has completely changed.
The bullshit foreign race is so powerful because they haven’t met Song generals who know how to fight and dare to fight.
Just like in front of Su Shi, whether it was Liao Dog, Xixia Wolf or Man Meng, when had they ever made a profit?
Of course, only fighting with Su Shi is called fighting. Following others can only be called being beaten.
When the vanguard army succeeded, Su Shi had already brought the health center and art team to Shanyang City.
But he only stayed here for one night. After Su Shi collected all the seizures into the system's warehouse, he led his army straight to Mayi City in the east.
It is important to note here that after Shanyang City was captured, a thousand young and middle-aged people wanted to join the Song Army.
When the Black Cavalry first entered the city, these young men resisted the most resolutely. When they later found out that this was the Mongolian Cavalry disguised by the Song army, these people immediately gave up their resistance and cooperated with them to launch an attack on the dignitaries in the city.
Clean up.
The reason for all this can be attributed to the time when Meng Qi passed by here last year.
At that time, the Liao people opened the cave gates wide and allowed the Mongolian cavalry to pass through in order to divert the troubled waters eastward.
It's just that the reason why the Mongols are called Mongolians is because they are unruly people. When passing by Shanyang City, the guard here prepared some food and placed it at the city gate. However, after the Mongolians arrived,
Not only did he eat their food, but he also entered the city and killed all the eldest girls and young wives in the city, and then left with satisfaction.
These injured people are basically ordinary people in the city.
Most of them are descendants of Han ancestry.
For many years, these Han descendants thought that they were accepted by the Liao people and that everyone should be the same. But when disaster struck, they realized that they had been regarded as outsiders by the Liao people and they really had something to sacrifice.
Sometimes, when they were pushed out, they didn't even blink an eye.
From then on, a seed of hatred was buried in the hearts of these descendants of the Han people. When Su Shi's army arrived, these people decided to recognize their ancestors and wanted to join the Su family army.
Of course, Su Shi would not refuse.
The reason why Su Shi did not bring a large army into Liao before was because he needed to leave enough troops to deter the allied forces of Xixia and Liao who were still in the Song Dynasty. Now that there is an opportunity to strengthen himself, of course he will not let it go.
They stayed in Shanyang City for a night, and then rushed to Mayi City the next day. After staying there for another night, early on the third day, the vanguard army also rushed over. The army met at a place and suddenly headed north, disappearing in everything.
in people's sight.
He did not continue to attack Heyin City to the east, which made the Heyin City defender who had already received the news nervous for a while.
The carrier pigeon carried the news all the way east to the hands of Xiao Ying, the envoy of the Southern Academy of Liao Dynasty, who was ordered to mobilize the army in Miyun, Tanzhou, and Zhang Jian, who took over the post of the third envoy.
The Mongolian cavalry entered the country and attacked Shanyang City and Mayi City. The result shocked both of them.
"Immediately check whether Dongsheng Prefecture and Ningbian Prefecture have found any traces of Mengqi entering the country." Zhang Jian looked at the soldiers beside him and quickly ordered.
After the soldiers left, Xiao Ying looked at Zhang Jian and asked, "What are you suspecting?"
"General, this does not seem to be Meng Qi's handiwork. If I must say it, it seems to be caused by Su Shi."
Having had many dealings with Su Shi, Zhang Jian's first feeling told him that an old rival was here.
"Su Shi? He should still be in Xincheng. If he has the guts to come and cause trouble for us, isn't he afraid that the Xixia Army will suddenly send troops to Xincheng after learning about his departure?" Xiao Ying spoke with doubt on his face.
"Haha, General, you have overestimated the Xixia Army. You really think they are invincible. If they had such ability, they would not be beaten back by Su Shi."
"Since Su Shi dares to march towards our Liao Kingdom, Xinzhou will definitely deploy heavy troops. Even if the Xixia Army dares to attempt an attack, I'm afraid they won't get much benefit."
"Also, this Su Shi is the best at using small things to make a big difference. I remember when he first led troops into our Liao territory, there were only about 5,000 people around him, but he still fooled us around. This person is too evil.
"
"Evil nature? How do you say it?" Xiao Ying seemed to have grasped something and asked.
"How do you say that?" Zhang Jian looked thoughtful, and after counting for a moment, he added: "This is the man who leads the army and never seems to worry about logistics, which allows him to survive in any harsh environment. Wait.
When they appear, the army will be full of vigor and vitality, without a trace of fatigue."
"Don't worry about logistics? Are you kidding me? Doesn't Song Jun even need to eat? Hahaha." Xiao Ying looked up to the sky and laughed, not caring at all.
On the contrary, in his opinion, it was because Zhang Jian suffered too many defeats and was frightened by Su Shi.
"Hey, just watch." Zhang
Jian did not explain anything, but said passively: "Perhaps it won't be long before they appear again, or in a place we think is impossible. At that time, we can determine whether the person coming is Su Shi.
"
"Okay, then let's wait and see. Well, maybe Mr. Zhang is right, and the person who did it is really Su Shi. But after he got the advantage, he may have retreated to the Song Dynasty." Xiao Ying's face
He said it full of fun.
He did not believe that Su Shi was really that powerful. He could hide his whereabouts at any time after entering the Liao realm and not worry about military rations. If this was the case, this person was really a serious problem and he had to kill him quickly.
Zhang Jian and Xiao Ying decided to wait and see, and at the same time, they accelerated the gathering of an army of 200,000.
While they were watching, the seven days passed peacefully. At noon on the eighth day, the carrier pigeon suddenly appeared again, and Datong Prefecture in Xijing of the Liao Dynasty suddenly encountered a large number of Mongolian cavalry attacking the city.
Fortunately, they were somewhat prepared and did not let the Meng cavalry succeed. However, before knowing the strength of their opponents, they did not dare to leave the city rashly. Instead, they could only watch from the city tower, watching the villages and towns near Xijing being attacked and plundered by the Meng cavalry.
Burn and kill.
When Xiao Ying saw this news, she was not calm at the moment.
Zhang Jian said in a very positive tone: "It must be Su Shi. Only he can appear anywhere in Liao Kingdom at such a fast speed. Only he has the courage to attack Datong Mansion in Xijing."
In this moment, Xiao Ying had calmed down a lot and said: "If this is really Su Shi, his ability is nothing more than this. He didn't even attack in a sneak attack."
When you go to Datong Mansion in Xijing, your abilities are not very good, right?"
