After more than ten seconds, Bailiyan ended her silent mourning first, looked around, and pulled Su Fangyi, who understood and looked at it carefully. At this time, Bai Liyan whispered in Jin Xuedi:

"Please look up!"

As soon as the words were spoken, three people suddenly raised their heads, and the others remained silent. Bai Liyan motioned to the old man to surround the three people, and Su Fangyi was taken aback:

"The Central Plains thief, it's the Central Plains thief!"

As soon as Su Fangyi's words fell, the generals looked up one after another for some reason, but found that three people had been surrounded by the old soldiers of the Xian army, and Bai Liyan came to the three and said coldly:

"Which of the three of you tells the general, how can you understand Jin Xuedi's language!"

The three of them were stunned, and only then did they know that it was a plan. Seeing that the three of them were silent, Bai Liyan said again:

"Jiang Jie, give them hairpins and let them tie their hair in a bun!"

"No!"

Jiang Jie brought three hairpins, and in front of everyone's eyes, two of them did not know how to tie their hair in a bun, while the other skillfully tied their hair in a bun. The person who would tie his hair in a bun could vaguely see the ragged military uniform of the Song Army Lieutenant on his body, and the astonishment in his eyes was revealed:

"Hmph, it seems that you are one of the Central Plains thieves lurking in the Song army." Bai Liyan said coldly, his eyes turned to the general of the Song army: "Which of you knows this person!" ”

"The last general knows General Han!"

As soon as the Song Kingdom said, Bai Liyan asked rhetorically:

"You're his direct subordinate?"

"No, but it's under the jurisdiction of the Grand Governor."

"Then do you know that this person can speak Jin Xuedi!"

"This ...... Ignorance! ”

"Then there's nothing to say! You have also seen it, with the Soviet righteous army division as evidence, Fang Cai would have designed to lure these three people out in Jin Xuedi's language, Jiang Jie, and press them down to take care of them! ”

"Yes, my lord!"

Bai Liyan only thought that Jin Xuedi would insert Central Plains thieves into the prisoners of war on the way, but he didn't expect that among the generals of the army, there would also be Central Plains thieves, and if he could achieve the position of lieutenant, there would inevitably be someone in the country to deal with his promotion.

After finding out the three people, Su Fangyi summoned all the royal guests overnight, adjusted the personnel, assigned the commanders, chiefs, and centurions to the names of generals at all levels of the army, and used the same method to find out more than 20 people from the lower-level military attachés, which is shocking.

In addition, not only the princes and armies, but also caught the Central Plains thief in the royal guest, the shoulder and back imitated the royal guest regulations, tattooed with the precepted "royal" word, although it looks very similar, but after smearing the wine, the original cyan tattoo will appear dark brown, and the Central Plains thief in the royal guest is very easy to identify.

Trim a little before dawn, and after dawn scouts come to report:

"General Qiyu, the Jin Xuedi people are coming to our army from the northwest and northeast flanks, forty miles and thirty miles away respectively."

"How many of them are there?"

"There are 50,000 people on the northwest road, and another 50,000 are still sixty or seventy miles away. There are more than 100,000 people on the northeast road, and the rest of the enemy troops are still on their way to this place. ”

"Probe!"

"No!"

When the scout left, Su Fangyi hurriedly said:

"General Baili, the enemy army is coming, do you have a way to retreat?"

Bailiyan took out the map in his arms and pointed to the southwest of the camp, fifty miles:

"There is a big river here, before the ambush, I have had people cut down trees in the riverside forest and bundle them into rafts, about 700 bodies, each of which can plant more than 20 people, as long as our army reaches the river, they can go down the river, and go north to the woods outside the west mountain of the Cupigon Valley, and it will not take a day to reach it down the river."

"In case it is intercepted by the Jin Xuedi people's sailors, the consequences of the raft carrying people are unimaginable."

"Mr. Su doesn't know, this Jin Xuedi water master is like an ornament, his combat strength is far inferior to my Central Plains, and it is far away in the Posong River, even if he wants to come, he has to detour the inland river for one or two thousand miles, and the far water does not save the fire."

"But even so, at most 15,600 people can be crossed at a time, nearly 100,000 people, and it will take half a month for the raft to go back and forth."

"The wounded go first, but those who can fight will retreat into the woods for the time being and wait for the battle, and when the raft has carried the wounded back, the army will take turns to ride down the river on the raft. At the same time, the camp also had tools and ropes, and the return raft was also equipped with tools and weapons, and when the gentleman arrived at the river, he continued to cut down trees to make rafts, so as to speed up the retreat. ”

"How can you save the other captives?" Su Fangyi hurriedly asked.

"I will ask the old pawn to lead the way and lead everyone to the river, and Mr. Su needs to guide the main force of the Jinxuedi people to the grove for me. During this period, he would have led a group of men and horses to the south to hide, and then made a detour to the east to ambush the Jinxuedi people who were guarding the other captives. ”

"A good plan is a good plan, but our army is alone and poorly equipped, how can we fight?"

Bai Liyan took out a gunpowder jar and handed it to Su Fangyi:

"The reason why yesterday's raid was successful was because of this thing to deter the Jinxuedi people. After the gentleman retreated to the river, he could temporarily block the enemy with this object, build a camp on the spot to defend against the Jinxuedi people, and wait for the first raft to return, and the raft had its own ordnance on it. After Ben will free the prisoners, he will relieve the siege for Mr. ”

Su Fangyi took the clay pot and looked at it for a while, puzzled by the mystery:

"How do you use it?"

"Ignite it with fire, then throw it out, and throw it into the crowd to kill dozens or even dozens of people in an instant, and the power is amazing. Ben will have a hundred old soldiers at his disposal. However, sir, please keep in mind that the quantity of this item is limited, so you must save some money. ”

After agreeing with Su Fangyi, Bai Liyan went to the camp to pick people to join the Xian army.

According to Su Fangyi, after the collapse of the first line of Yesui, Yuecheng, and Mingzhou, Jin Xuedi took more than one million prisoners, most of whom were people who could not evacuate, and the captives who went south this time were all strong people, craftsmen, and the people's army and coalition troops who were captured after the siege, totaling more than 3.78 million people.

Fearing that there were too many prisoners and that the rear was unstable, the Jin Xuedi people drove all the young and strong forces south. On the way south, as many as 40,000 or 50,000 people died of hunger and cold, and thousands of people died on the way almost every month.

More than 20,000 weapons obtained in yesterday's sneak attack, plus 14,000 long and short weapons carried by Bailiyan's army, could barely make up 36,700 people, and selected more than 5,000 people from them to join the Xian army.

Around the hour of the hour, urging everyone to go on the road, just out of the ten miles, Baili Yan let people kill Jin Xuedi people to follow the scouts, and then divided the troops into two roads, Baili Yan changed the route to the south, Su Fangyi fell people to the river.

At the same time, Temir gathered more than 100,000 men and horses on the east road to chase and kill, and the cavalry was the first to rush to Bailiyan's camp last night, but after entering the woods, the cavalry's mobility advantage was gone.

"Really fast! What is Nakicas, southwest direction? ”

"They are all Your Excellency Qiulin, but there is a river, and there is our pontoon bridge on the river, and as long as they occupy the opposite bank through the pontoon bridge, they will not be able to escape even if they have their wings."

"Then let Cartenson's auxiliary regiment stop the pursuit, let him cross the river to block the way for the rebels to flee west, and we will surround them from behind."

"Yes, Your Excellency."

Temir suffered a big loss yesterday, and did not dare to lead the cavalry into the forest alone, but waited for the infantry to arrive and continued to pursue to the southwest, while Cartenson led the auxiliary corps of Sundia Province and was ordered to turn around and cross the river to block the retreat of Su Fangyi.

Su Fangyi led his troops to the river before dark, and as Bailiyan said, the woods along the river had been cut down, and the trees had been made into rafts and buried in the snow, in addition to some sharpened simple wooden guns, and a rammed snow wall.

Due to the Jinxuedi pontoon bridge built downstream, Bailiyan prepared an impact raft in advance.

This type of impact raft is made of a dozen or so thick logs sharpened to make a heavy raft, the raft carries boulders or a large number of stones, so that the raft is slightly submerged under the water, and when used, the sharpened end is facing the impact target, and then it is sent downstream.

The stones not only increase the weight of the raft, but also have great momentum under the action of speed and inertia, and the improvised pontoon bridge is powerless to parry under the strong rush of several or even more than a dozen heavy-duty impact rafts.

So that night, the Jinxuedi people who were crossing the bridge downstream were tragically rammed by the impact raft, and hundreds of people fell into the river and drowned.

It was the second half of the night when Temir learned that the pontoon bridge downstream had washed out:

"When did these damn northerners linger like a plague in our homeland, and even the rafts were so well prepared, are the officials of Posong Province all rice buckets!"

"Your Excellency, they are going down the river, much faster than we can ride horses, and if they continue like this, they will be able to escape from us on a raft tomorrow."

"No, it can't be. There were eighty or ninety thousand of them, and it was impossible for them all to escape on rafts. Order the whole army to storm them early tomorrow morning. ”

"Yes!"

The next day's assault had little effect, and the attack was frustrated, and Temir did not expect that there was still a wall of snow blocking the pace of the attack, and the bows and arrows were blocked by trees and walls of snow, and the lethal effect was greatly reduced, and the melee hand-to-hand combat was attacked by gunpowder canisters, although the casualties were not large, but the loud noise and casualties produced by the explosion were undoubtedly a catastrophic blow to morale.

At the same time, Bailiyan forcibly marched from behind Temir for a day and night, walked more than a hundred miles, and reached thirty miles south of the prisoner of war camp to the east.

After the front was attacked, Temir ordered the rear guard battalion and the central army camp to drive all the prisoners of war to concentrate here, and gathered the auxiliary troops to guard over nearly 200,000 prisoners of war.

"General, look at the campfire, the number of defenders is small, there are more than 100,000 people" Bai He put away the binoculars and said: "The enemy is outnumbered, how can we fight this battle!" ”

Baili Yan stroked the short beard and said:

"They have suffered a big loss before, they must be on guard, and they will definitely not be able to attack."

"But if you outwit it, I'm afraid it's not easy."

Lu Gao said worriedly, and Bai Liyan took over:

"If only there was a way to get it out of the way."

"But it's impossible for more than 100,000 enemy troops to leave their captives behind." Bai He's eyes rolled, and he really couldn't believe that Baili Yan could have any immortal skills to make more than 100,000 people leave the prisoners of war and run away by themselves.

Bai Liyan took out his binoculars again and looked east, it was pitch black in the darkness, and he couldn't see anything. After a moment of contemplation, he said:

"It's really impossible to get more than 100,000 people away, but if you can get half of them, it's much simpler."

Lu Gao frowned when he heard the news, and he really couldn't think of any strategy to lure away tens of thousands of people:

"General, our army only has 10,000 horses, even if we can lure them out, at best, we will attract 30,000 or 50,000 people, how can we lead them away 100,000 people."

"Of course, it is not possible to take it by force. But they are building a lot of fortifications to the east, and we can destroy a few beacons and set them on fire, so that we can find a way to mobilize our forces here for reinforcements. ”

"But how do you fool them?" Lu Gao hurriedly asked: "Jin Xuedi is bound to confirm the news, and then send troops to rescue." If it is just a lie, once they find out, they will know that it is our army's design, and it may reveal the location of our army. ”

"Why, haven't you noticed that the Jin Xuedi people have more than 100,000 troops here, nearly 200,000 people who are crossing the river in the west, 1120,000 people who are chasing Su Fangyi, and 60,000 or 70,000 Jin Xuedi people guarding outside the Qiubigong Mountain, a total of nearly 500,000, so how many troops do they still have to maintain law and order in Posong Province and guard the people who are repairing the city?"

Bai Liyan's words woke everyone up, and Lu Gao hurriedly said:

"Is the general saying that the defenders who built the fortress east of this place are not as good as before?"

"Exactly, as long as the camps under construction in the east and north can be revolted again, the Jinxuedi people will inevitably go to reinforcements. In this way, tonight, General Lu Gao and General Bai He, each with 3,000 men and horses, bypassed their camp, all the way to the north and all the way to the east, and the drivers attacked the artificial land of Jin Xuedi and robbed the people. This time is different, when we came, we only drew those who were willing to serve, and this time we all coerced all the people. ”

"Then what should Mr. Su do? If our army attacks the construction site, it will take four or five days to achieve results, and when the barbarian army is transferred out here, it will take seven or eight days, can Mr. Su insist on winning the title. ”

"I have asked Jiang Jie to send a few old soldiers back to the valley, and ask Si Jiao Muhua to transport the alcohol out, now calculated, the raft should have been transported to the forest outside the West Mountain, and it should be able to be transported to the river where Mr. Su is located in two to three days, and then the fire attack can delay the offensive of the Jin Xuedi people, and drag it out until seven or eight days later."

This summer, people went into the mountains to look for medicine, and accidentally found orange groves, wild grapes, and an unknown fruit that grows on a tree that looks like a grapefruit and opens up to look like a coconut, all of which are sweet water. Bai Liyan thought about it at that time, and asked people to collect a large amount of alcohol for brewing, distilled alcohol in September, and used it for garrison purposes, and there were large quantities of alcohol stored in the cofferdam and Xishan for arson to the enemy.

Before dividing the troops, Bailiyan told Jiang Jie to send the old soldier to order Jiao Mu Huayun wine, and at the same time cut down and rebuild the raft against the water to meet Su Fangyi and others. At most, as long as there are three trips back and forth, in about ten days, Su Fangyi and other 80,000 or 90,000 people can be transported to the valley for resettlement.

Agreed on a strategy with Lu Gao and Bai He, and the two set off with their own troops in the second half of the night, and Bailiyan continued to wait in place and wait to see the development of the situation.

During this time, Temir tried to rebuild the pontoon bridge, but as it was about to be completed, several more shock rafts upstream went downstream, resulting in Joe's death. The Jinxuedi also tried to intercept the shock raft on several occasions, but to no avail.

The impact raft is made of more than a dozen logs with a diameter of half a meter and tied with a sharp point, carrying stones up to one or two tons, and the logs are slightly buried under the water surface as a whole, the resistance of the water surface is very small, the momentum is great, and it is extremely difficult to forcibly intercept it.

However, Temir soon found that the raft of the Salon army, which was going down the river, was not stopped by the shock raft, but reached the shore of the upstream coalition army very smoothly.

The reason is actually very simple, the impact raft is slightly buried under the water, not only to reduce the resistance of the water surface, but also to obscure.

In fact, as long as people board the impact raft and cut the rope that binds the logs with a knife, the raft will naturally disintegrate, and the stones on the raft will fall into the water, and the large logs will float on the surface of the river as wide as three miles, which will not have a great impact on the raft going upstream. It's such a simple way, Jin Xuedi people have never been able to figure it out.
