The attack came very suddenly, and Tuoba Qingshou's reaction was also quick, after all, he was crawling on the battlefield, what kind of danger had he not seen? The experience of escaping death several times made Tuoba Qingshou practice the courage to change everywhere, and the initial panic lasted for less than a breath, and the next moment Tuoba Qingshou made the most correct response.

It was too late to draw the blade to block, and the sword light came in front of him in an instant, and Tuoba Qingshou fell sideways, and the soldiers around him thought that the Lord would be stabbed by this sword and fell to the ground; In the midst of the exclamation, a burst of dust flew in the sky, but it was Tuoba Qingshou who quickly grabbed a handful of sand and threw it towards the assassin's face as he fell to the ground.

The man stabbed the air with a sword, and there was a piece of dust in front of him, so he hurriedly waved his sleeves to block his eyes, but the sword in his hand did not pause at all, although he couldn't see the position of the other party, but the direction of the stab was extremely correct, and it was the position where Tuoba Qing was retreating.

Tuoba Qingshou dodged the first sword, and the second sword became much calmer, rolling on the spot several times, and the tip of the sword repeatedly pierced into the sandy ground where he rolled, making a stabbing and screeching sound.

A scream rang out, and a Xia soldier was stabbed with a sword, and his armored chest was pierced in several places, blood splattered out, and then the lifeless body flew up and slammed into the assassin's face, and the assassin flew up and kicked the body several feet and rolled to the ground.

At the same time, Tuoba Qingshou had already drawn out the scimitar at his waist and held it in front of him, just now he did not hesitate to pull a soldier to block a few swords, and now he finally had a moment to draw the knife in his hand, and the crisis finally passed.

The dust dispersed, and the burly assassin stood with his sword, he also knew that he had missed the opportunity to kill with one blow, and there was no chance to kill Tuoba Qingshou again, and the Xia soldiers who reacted left and right shouted and surrounded him.

Tuoba Qingshou shouted: "Who are you? ”

The assassin smiled and said: "Count your luck as a Xixia dog, you can actually avoid Lao Tzu's killing, Lao Tzu will not change his name, sit or change his surname, and the Great Song Dynasty and Weizhou will deploy the commander Ge Huaimin." ”

Tuoba Qing was happy, this person turned out to be a senior officer of the Song Army, but for some reason he assassinated himself here alone, but he didn't have to think about it so much, it was also a credit to run away from the Song Army and capture their leader, it was better than nothing.

"It turned out to be General Ge, the confrontation between the two armies was a righteous and bright fight, you are hiding on this roof and assassinating, what kind of ability is this? Why is not one of your men? Did they leave you alone and run away? ”

"Lao Tzu doesn't have time to talk nonsense with you, if you have the ability to fight with me alone, I want to see how capable the Xixia dog is."

Tuoba Qingshou said with a gloomy face: "It's ridiculous, who is fighting alone with you here, you are the general of the defeated army, and it is the right thing to surrender quickly, if you can tell the situation of Weizhou's defense, you may be able to save your life, otherwise you won't survive the tea effort." ”

Ge Huaimin looked up to the sky and laughed, glared and scolded: "Be your mother's big dream of spring and autumn." As soon as the words fell, his body jumped into the air, and the long sword in his hand picked up the huge sword flower and stabbed at Tuoba Qingshou.

Tuoba Qingshou shouted: "Take it." ”

Suddenly, several Xia soldiers grabbed their swords and blocked Ge Huaimin's way, Ge Huaimin swung his sword and stabbed and injured the two in the blink of an eye; Tuoba Qingshou quickly retreated, and shouted with a wave of his arm: "Take it, take it, whether you live or die." ”

More Xia soldiers swarmed up, entangled Ge Huaimin in the middle, Ge Huaimin's martial arts were not weak, the long sword in his hand pointed to the east and west, slashing and stabbing, and after a while, he was hacked to death and slashed more than ten people; But every time one person is killed, in exchange for a wound on the body, although it is not fatal, but there are already several wounds on the body bleeding, becoming an out-and-out bloody person.

After fighting several times, Ge Huaimin was shot and stabbed in his body, the gunshot wound was several inches deep under the ribs, and the knife wound was deep in the left arm, all of which were serious injuries. After being seriously injured, his body gradually disobeyed the call, and his footsteps became stagnant, and then he was slashed several times by a random knife, and he had no strength to fight again.

Ge Huaimin knew that his time had come, and suddenly he roared, swinging his sword and slashing the throat of a Xia soldier, but at the same time, his heart was cold, and then the indescribable stinging pain seemed to go deep into his soul, and when he looked down, he saw the tip of a knife coming out of his chest, dripping with blood.

"Your Majesty...... Can Chen Ge Huaimin be regarded as loyal to the country today? Han Shuai...... Can you be forgiven for being lowly? Ge Huaimin looked up to the sky and shouted, his whole body was dripping with blood like a ghost.

"Kill him, kill him." Tuoba Qingshou ordered loudly outside the crowd.

Ge Huaimin heard Tuoba Qingshou's voice, suddenly his eyes widened, and he used his last strength to throw the long sword in his hand violently, and the long sword broke through the air and went straight to Tuoba Qingshou front door, Tuoba Qingshou didn't dare to slack off swinging the knife, and knocked the long sword several feet away; At the same time, dozens of knives and guns pierced Ge Huaimin's body at the same time, Ge Huaimin let out a long exhale, his eyes were gloomy, and he stood and hung his head on the spot.

Xia Jun was still afraid that he was not dead, so he stepped forward and chopped Ge Huaimin's body with a knife, Tuoba Qingshou shouted loudly, and quickly stepped forward and slapped the slashing soldier and scolded: "The person is dead, what do you do to abuse his body?" This man is brave and fearless and worthy of respect, if it were not for the difference between the enemy and me, I would have greatly liked to make friends with him, so I would have sorted it out and carried it to the king of Yeli to inform him. ”

……

A small Dingchuan village, it was intended to be the Xixia iron cavalry in a moment, but it blocked the Xixia army for nearly three hours, at dawn the left army Ye Li Wangrong arrived at the mountain pass, at this time it was already the end of the time, or in the other party took the initiative to abandon the village and go away in the case of the end, the Song army with the not very strong wall and this not high hillside, just at the cost of hundreds of people to kill and wound more than 2,000 Xia troops, this is simply a great shame.

Yeli Wangrong gritted his teeth and stared at the upright corpse in front of him, but he knew that he couldn't blame others, no matter how brave the Song army was, it was only the Song army, not a fierce beast, and the fundamental reason for the setback in this battle was caused by his own underestimation of the enemy.

Not only himself, but there was a general idea of underestimating the enemy in the entire Great Xia army, otherwise why would the four thousand cavalry in Yuan De not be able to take this walled city, but instead many soldiers were killed and wounded; In the final analysis, it is because, in the hearts of Yuan Dezhong and many Great Xia soldiers, the Song army is not worth mentioning at all, so after the Song army suddenly resorted to various tricks, it could not deal with it and could only be beaten.

After nearly three hours of delay, the follow-up 40,000 cavalry on the right led by Yeli Yuqi was also blocked for a long time, but fortunately, his own brother led the troops, and secretly sent someone to inform him of the situation, and he would not come to laugh at his stupidity, if Li Yuanhao knew about it, I am afraid that he would regard this matter as his own shame from now on.

Tuoba Qingshou sent 2,000 cavalry to chase and kill the fleeing Song army of Dingchuan Village, although more than 300 Song soldiers were killed along the way, but most of the Song army chose the ravines and thorny Qianmo, the horses could not enter, and they could only sigh; There were more than a dozen horsemen of the Xia army who made meritorious contributions and rode their horses on these difficult trails, but they were killed by the Song army.

These are not a big deal, what makes Yeli Wangrong depressed is that the soldiers who chased and killed brought a headache for him, there is actually a walled city more than ten miles ahead, some people say that it was originally called Liu Liaobao, and the army had conquered and burned it a few months ago, but I don't know when the Song people rebuilt it.

The terrain of Liu Liaobao is not dangerous, after passing the Dingchuan village, there is no dangerous terrain, the reason why the village is chosen to set up in this place is because a river crosses it, it is a river that is not wide from the melting snow water at the northern foot of Longshan Mountain, which flows into Jingshui from west to east.

The Liulian Fort was established on the south bank of a river beach with the gentlest current, and the Great Xia cavalry had to cross the river when they went south to Weizhou, either by building a bridge, or by ferrying, or directly riding a horse to cross the river; It is because, although it is not difficult, if more than 100,000 troops cross the river to the south to build a bridge, they must build no less than 100 bridges, and at least 100 boats are enough, otherwise it will take a year and a half to cross the river alone.

Generally speaking, it is the easiest way to choose a gentle and not deep river to wade through on horseback, but the location of this Liu Liaobao is the best place to cross the river, and it is obvious that this is another nail.

When Yeli Wangrong's left army drove to the north shore of Liu Liaobao, the Song army on the wall of Liu Liaobao was already in full battle, not only that, but there were also shadowy Song army archers behind the dirt slope on the opposite bank; It was clear that the Song army was ready, and once the Xia army began to wade across the river, they would be greeted by a rain of flying locusts.
