In this way, in such a large area, if the Liao army came not only with 108,000 people, but also with 200,000 or 300,000 people, Su Shi had the conditions to deal well with the opponent.
Having chosen this spot, Su Shi sent out all the Eagle Squadron scouts around him, with one purpose: to draw a detailed map of this area in the shortest possible time.
Su Shi disappeared in Longmen Mountain.
This scared the Bei'an Prefecture Liao Army east of Longmen Mountain.
Not only them, but also the Liao army in Bei'an Prefecture and Dading Prefecture in Zhongjing to the east also began to strengthen their vigilance.
Who doesn't know that the Su family's army moves very fast and is very sneaky. If you don't take precautions, you never know when they will appear near Zhongjing.
While strengthening the alert, they also sent carrier pigeons to notify Xiao Ying's headquarters, asking them to encircle and suppress Su Shi's headquarters. There was some dissatisfaction in the letter.
Xiao Ying suddenly felt a lot of pressure. After all, there were many dignitaries from the Liao Kingdom in Zhongjing City. These people didn't have much ability to get things done, but it was much easier to ruin someone's affairs.
Xiao Ying was not satisfied with just being an emblem envoy from the North Campus. He wanted to continue to rise, so he could not offend these dignitaries in Zhongjing. At the moment, he kept urging the army to go straight to the vast area where Su Shi was.
.
The previous scouts discovered traces of the Su family army here, which was like a shot in the arm for Xiao Ying, making him seem to see the dawn of dawn.
...
Bianliang City.
The footsteps of spring are about to pass, and there is no previous military pressure in the sky above the palace. After the Chinese New Year, it seems that the world is peaceful again.
Western Territory.
Following Di Qing's command,
Upon their return, the entire Western Army was in full preparedness and ready for a war at any time.
On the other hand, Xixia is a bit anticlimactic.
The clamor was loud before, and the troops inside the territory were constantly mobilizing, but after Di Qing and the others returned, they became quiet.
It feels like they never meant to be enemies with the Song Dynasty.
In the northern border, everyone thought that the victory a year ago was a tragic victory, and the strength of the foreign races was still there. Once spring comes, it will be time for a big war.
But similarly, the northern border also fell into silence.
The 70,000 Xixia army and the 20,000 Liao army seemed to be hibernating and had not yet woken up. They allowed time to pass without making any movement.
Su Shi is naturally the biggest contributor to the current result.
It is no longer a secret that he led 30,000 troops to the Liao Kingdom. For this matter, everyone will inevitably admire him in their hearts.
Although they admire him, some people scold him for being stupid for daring to go to Liao with 30,000 troops. Do you really think that the Liao army is easy to bully?
There are still people who are gloating about the misfortune, hoping that Su Shi will die there and that will be the end of the world.
But as the emperor of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Zhen felt both relieved and worried.
I am gratified that at the critical moment, there are still people with lofty ideals like Su Shi in the country who dare to shoulder the responsibility in times of crisis and fight for the Song Dynasty.
In comparison, those ministers who could only talk and were frightened by the six gods and five masters as soon as they heard that the aliens were coming to kill them were too incompetent.
The worry is that Su Shi is alone in the tiger's den, what if something goes wrong.
Su Shi has proven his military talent with practical actions. According to the information obtained by the Secret Service, many young people in the army now regard Su Shi as his talent.
Taking Shi as an example, they also want to be such a person who can turn the tide from collapse.
Help the building before it collapses.
If something happened to Su Shi at this time, it would probably have a huge impact on the morale of the Song Army. This was not the result that Zhao Zhen wanted to see.
Unfortunately, Su Shi has now gone to the Liao Kingdom. Even if he wants to order him to come back, he is beyond his reach.
Zhao Zhen is concerned about Su Shi, and King Jing Zhao Xi is also concerned about Su Shi.
On this day, he and his teacher Li Di talked about Su Shi again.
"Your Highness, there is no need to worry. Su Shaofu is a master who takes one step at a time and sees the next. Since he dares to enter Liao alone, he must have made corresponding preparations. And if this battle is fought, he may be able to exchange for a long period of time."
The peace of time.”
"Haha, think about it, the armies of the three tribes have not done anything to me, the Song Dynasty. Doesn't this alert some people, and no one will easily attack the Song Dynasty in the future?" Li Di said, with a look on his face.
While smiling.
But after laughing, he suddenly coughed violently again.
"Teacher, are you okay? Your cough has become more and more severe these days." Zhao Xi asked with concern on his face.
"It doesn't matter, I'm just getting older and my old problems won't bother me." Li Di said nonchalantly, then wiped his mouth with his handkerchief, and the trace of blood in it was hidden.
Li Di is over seventy years old, which is an absolute longevity for ancient people.
For many years, he worried about state affairs, and later devoted himself to teaching Zhao Xi. It can be said that he worked hard and never dared to slack off.
No matter how good your body is, it can't withstand such a long time, and now it's almost time to run out of fuel.
At this time, if he is willing to return
He may be able to live for a few more years if he can take care of himself. But he really wants to teach a talented emperor. He doesn't want to waste any time. He wants to teach Zhao Xi with all his strength so that he can become a virtuous king and become a virtuous king.
A wise master of the world.
"Come, today I will talk to His Highness about the ways of governing the country."
"Laozi said that the people are the most valuable, followed by the country..."
...
Hutoushan.
After more than a year of training, Lu Siqiao was still a little dissatisfied.
She has seen the power of the Black Cavalry, and because of this, the ideal army in her mind is like the Black Cavalry.
Comes and goes like the wind.
Wherever it passes, there is no stronghold that cannot be destroyed, and no city that cannot be destroyed.
It's just a pity that she doesn't have the financial resources as strong as Su Shi. A mountain warrior who barely has a full stomach and doesn't have much oil or water in her stomach will never be as commanding as Black Cavalry.
"Sister, don't be too anxious. Master Su has money. He has a lot of money. It can be said that Black Cavalry has accumulated countless amounts of money. We can't compare with this. But we can endure hardship. If it doesn't work in one year, it will be two years. If it doesn't work in two years, it will be two years.
It's just three years. As long as you can forge an elite army, it doesn't matter if you stay for two more years. Otherwise, an army without sufficient combat effectiveness, even if it goes to the battlefield, will just be used as cannon fodder, as Master Su said.
of."
Seeing Lu Siqiao's anxiety, Feng Chunxue on the side quickly spoke out to comfort her.
"Yes, if the soldiers are not good enough, they will die easily on the battlefield." Lu Siqiao nodded heavily in agreement.
The news that Su Shi went to the northern border to fight against the three tribes finally reached Hutou Mountain.
At that moment, Lu Siqiao had an impulse to take her brothers in the mountains to
Fight side by side with Su Shi.
But after being impulsive, he gave up the idea once he calmed down. Without it, the brothers in Hutoushan were good at individual combat, but when it came to killing enemies in battle formations, they were still far behind.
If she takes her brothers to the battlefield now, it would be irresponsible for everyone's lives.
These people followed so wholeheartedly, Lu Siqiao will be responsible for them.
Unable to fight side by side with Su Shi, Lu Siqiao poured this eagerness into training. Over the past year, the strength of the army has finally increased a lot. Although it is still some distance away from going to the battlefield, it is still better than it was a year ago.
There has been a lot of improvement in the laziness and working on their own.
While the two sisters were still talking here, someone over there started shouting, "Take a rest and drink some water to quench your thirst first."
It was Guan Ziyin who was pushing the waterwheel.
Since moving to the mountain, she has behaved very well. She greets everyone with a smile. If any brother's clothes are torn, she will take the initiative to mend them.
In addition, everyone knew that she was the wife of the second boss Li Kesheng, so gradually everyone accepted her and their relationship with her was extremely harmonious.
Guan Ziyin and Hua Mingyue pushed the water cart to the training ground. Many people walked over to drink water and did not forget to express their sincere thanks.
After seeing this scene, Feng Chunxue said with a smile, "Brother Li is lucky."
"Well, she is a nice woman." Lu Siqiao also smiled. Obviously, she also had a good opinion of Guan Ziyin.
...
At the end of April, Xiao Ying led a total of 120,000 Liao troops to appear in this undeveloped primitive land west of Zhongjing.
district.
Most of the army that was originally going to send troops to the Song Dynasty was brought by Xiao Ying. There are still some people who are gathering and will arrive here later.
This time, Xiao Ying was ready for a decisive battle with Su Shi.
In Zhang Jian's words, even if all the 120,000 troops in his hands were killed, as long as he could kill Su Shi, everything would be worth it.
Xiao Ying did not think that the 120,000 troops could not defeat Su Shi, so he came here with full confidence. It was only after he actually came to this primitive area that he discovered how harsh the environment here was.
Needless to say, there are mountains and forests all over, which are good for hiding.
If you are not careful, you will fall into the swamp of the Matun people.
Just saying that there are so many mosquitoes here, there are many times more than in other places. He has only been here for two days, and he has been bitten by more than a dozen.
Often, just after those old swellings have disappeared, new big ones bulge on the body.
Xiao Ying finally understood why there was so much land here but no one came here to open up wasteland. It was really not worth it. After all, the Liao Kingdom was also vast and rich in resources. There was a lot of land for farming, but it was not enough to open up wasteland.
The extent of people’s stomachs.
"Damn, there are so many mosquitoes that I can't seem to kill them all. I really don't know how Su Shi's army can survive in a place like this." He walked out of the military tent and touched his face. There were four or five mosquitoes.
Not only is she not young, Xiao Ying's face looked very ugly when she got up early in the morning.
Zhang Jian came over to greet him. His face was not much better, and he also had a few bumps on his face.
But he is a very tolerant person. Even if he was bitten, he would not say anything, he would just endure it silently.
"General, the scout has just sent
We have received news that our people have found traces of Su Shi’s army in a place called Qianchong Mountain ahead. Now I have sent people to check."
After Zhang Jian finished speaking, Xiao Ying's face was obviously excited, "Okay, have you finally found it? Then gather the troops immediately. Once confirmed, they will attack the border with a large army. This time, Su Shi will be chopped alive.
, otherwise it will be difficult to understand the hatred in my heart."
