The sun sets in the west, and there are no mountains in the west.

The characters of the grassland gathered under the command tower have all dispersed, and at this time, only Mo Li and Wang Pu are left by Li Congjing's side. Meng Songbai brought people to bring food, and Li Congjing sat opposite Mo Li and Wang Pu on the command floor to eat.

The Khitan army showed no signs of retreating, and the offensive became more and more ferocious. Its main force of elite soldiers and elite cavalry, concentrated on attacking the Youzhou army in the middle of the battle formation, all those who participated in the attack, are not afraid of death, is the real elite. Yelu Abaoji had already gone to the battlefield, but the injection of chicken blood he gave to the Khitan soldiers continued to play a role, making the soldiers of the Youzhou army fight hard.

Anyone can see that the Youzhou Army is the absolute main force of the so-called coalition army, and once the Youzhou Army is defeated and defeated, the outcome of this war will be divided.

Not only that, Yelu Abaoji's personal conquest was also like a boulder, pressing on Li Congjing's heart, casting a haze in his chest. Yelu Abaoji did not die this time, what it means to Li Congjing and the Youzhou Army is self-evident.

However, the battle has come to this point, unless the Khitan retreats, it is impossible for Li Congjing to withdraw, and the Youzhou army wants to withdraw from the battlefield of the West Building, which is tantamount to a fool's dream.

There are many worries, but it has not affected Li Congjing's meal, how many difficulties are in front of him, there are still many problems that he needs to solve, the body is the capital of the revolution, he will not degenerate to slack off and destroy his roots.

"The war is at a stalemate, and each side is beginning to become embedded in the other side's military formations." Putting down the dishes and chopsticks, Mo Li wiped his mouth, stood up, and looked at the battlefield to Li Congjing.

Li Congjing also finished eating, Meng Songbai stepped forward to clean up the tableware for the two, Li Congjing stood by the railing, and said: "I am not worried about the Youzhou army formation for the time being, but once the grassland tribes find that the Youzhou army formation is not easy to break through, they will turn to the main attack on the defense line of the grassland army formation, and with their strength, it will be difficult to defend." ”

Mo Li said: "However, there is no way, after all, the Youzhou army has limited strength. ”

"To avoid this situation, we can only urge the Youzhou Army to fight hard and find opportunities to counterattack in the face of the Khitan army's attack, so as to drag the main force and elite of the Khitan army, so that it has no time to take care of anything else." Li Congjing said.

While the two were talking, before the military order could be issued, the Khitan army really divided a fine cavalry to attack other fronts.

"Order Li Yanchao to lead the horse army to support the black car Murowei!" After Li Congjing got the report, he immediately gave the order.

Before long, the rangers came to report again, and the Khitan army sent out elite infantry to attack the Tatar department.

Li Congjing was about to order Meng San to lead his troops to support, but suddenly thought about it, if the Youzhou army divided too many troops and the strength was scattered, what should the Khitan army do if they concentrated on attacking the Youzhou army again? But what if the Tatar defenses were torn apart if they were not supported?

When the time came, the Khitan army sent several elites from behind the formation several times to attack the defense line guarded by the grassland departments, and the Xingnai Youzhou army struggled to drive forward, forcing the Khitan army to return to help, and the defense line of the tribes was preserved.

In the first half of the night, the fighting between the two sides was extremely fierce, whether it was the coalition soldiers or the Khitan soldiers, they all took turns to fight, and the battle did not stop for a moment. And looking at the posture of the Khitan army, there was no intention of stopping the battle at night.

The Khitan knew that it was not advisable to divide his troops elsewhere, so he intensified his efforts to storm the Youzhou army formation. Inspired by Yelu Abaoji's personal trap, the morale of the Khitan army was invigorated, and because it had been pressing the coalition army to fight, the fighting spirit became more and more high, and its back to the imperial capital was fighting against the water, and the offensive became more and more ferocious.

The problem is that the Khitan army relied on its superiority in combat power, but with less than half of its troops, it contained the defense lines and military formations of the grasslands, constantly gathered the main combat strength, and took turns attacking the Youzhou army formation, which made the Youzhou army more and more difficult to fight. Not only that, Yelu Bei, the crown prince of the Khitan, and Yelu Deguang, the generalissimo of the Khitan soldiers and horses, went to the front line in person, took turns to fight, and took the lead for the Khitan soldiers.

In the end, Li Congjing had to concentrate his energy mainly on the Youzhou Army defense line, and he was in the command building to dispatch the whole army, and he couldn't be distracted for a moment.

"If the war continues like this, the situation of our army may not be optimistic!" A strategist in the General Staff asserted so.

"The Khitan barbarian who is a straight mother thief, he fights day and night as soon as he sees his face, where is his fucking rule! If they don't decide the winners and losers in one go, they don't plan to rest? Some people were so angry and scolded.

When he was a child, Tao Yaoyao and Du Qianshu suddenly came one after another.

At this time, Li Congjing was struggling to open the situation, and Tao Yaoyao said a word to Du Qianshu, which immediately made him fall into an ice cellar.

"Xi, Heishui, Songlin and other departments and camps, all found suspicious people, looking like fine work!"

These are the words of the peach child.

"It's the same tribe, there are abnormal movements within the battalion or the military formation!"

This is what Li Shaocheng asked Du Qianshu to bring back.

The lights could not be dispersed in the long night, Li Congjing, who was wrapped in shadows, his face was unknown in the dark curtain, the military array downstairs was suddenly impermeable, the iron armor Sensen reflected the cold light, and the fierce battle between the two sides in the distance, the soldiers and soldiers, the waves of people were rolling, and the sound of fighting was like howling like the wind, and wave after wave impacted the human brain, making people confused and dizzy.

His hand holding the knife tightened unconsciously, and his hands and feet were a little cold.

Some tribes may want to rebel!

This is the essence of what Tao Yaoyao and Du Qianshu said.

Why do these tribes rebel?

Of course, it is not because the war is unfavorable. Although there was no progress in the fighting, there was no sign of defeat, and besides, the fighting was only one day, and it was impossible for morale to collapse at this time.

It was not a temporary idea, but it was premeditated!

Who's laying it out? Who is behind all this?

The grassland tribes, do you really want to rebel, or are you suspicious and Du Qianshu is suspicious?

How should the Youzhou Army respond? Do you act now, or wait for clarity? Is it to stabilize the position and not to mess up, or to prevent problems before they happen?

Is the enemy deliberately creating a false impression and plunging the coalition forces into chaos, or is the enemy already infiltrated and has already made a layout?

What would happen if the various ministries suddenly rebelled and attacked the coalition's main position?

Who can be trusted, and who is most likely to fight back?

Yelu Abaoji did not die, nor was he seriously ill, the founding king of the Khitan Empire, still in good health, still ruling the entire chessboard?

Countless voices exploded in Li Congjing's mind, slamming into his consciousness with impunity. Since the troops went north to the West Tower, the various events experienced by the Youzhou Army, countless fragments and pictures were intertwined in his mind, vertical and horizontal, unrecognizable and extremely real, they were rampant, stimulating Li Congjing's brain.

The coalition army has tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians, the life and death of 50,000 soldiers of the Youzhou Army are all in one thought, Lu Long's painstaking efforts over the years, the grand ambition to fight against the Khitan, the beacon fire and wolf smoke in the Central Plains, the reincarnation of history, and the mission of the years, all of which are churning and spinning in Li Congjing's mind.

Over the years, when Li Congjing faced the enemy, he often planned and then moved, decided the victory or defeat on the battlefield between talking and laughing, and affected the fate of thousands of people between his hands. However, the major events of the family and the country, the battlefield conquest, and the countless dangers, how can they always walk on the ground?

"Brother Li, you have to make up your mind!" Mo Li walked in front of Li Congjing, his face was full of solemnity and solemnity that he had never seen before, he looked at Li Congjing's eyes seriously, held Li Congjing's shoulders with both hands, and his eyes full of wisdom and strength were full of trust.

Li Congjing took a deep breath and nodded at Mo Li.

He turned around and gave instructions to the heralds: "Herald: Order the chiefs of all the tribes to assemble here at once, and the gentlemen will be responsible for this matter; Ordered the formations to shrink their fronts and move to an all-out defense; Ling Huangfulin led the reserve team Ding Mao, Shi Congda and other units to protect the Youzhou military array and the two wings of the military camp; Li Yanchao was ordered to be the supervisor of the array, and Li Zheng and Jing Renzhong were appointed as the deputy envoys of the supervisor, each leading 2,000 cavalry to inspect the battlefield! ”

After issuing these orders in one breath, Li Congjing said to Du Qianshu again: "Order the Tatar Department, the main force is moving closer to the Youzhou Army!" He said to Tao Yaoyao: "Let Tubak Khan no, let Princess Ahri come quickly!" ”

When it was ugly, the rear of the coalition army was in turmoil: Heishui, Songlin and other units rebelled, stormed the coalition army formation, and killed the surrounding companions.

At the same time, the Khitan army launched a new round of onslaught against the Youzhou army's military array.

At two moments of ugliness, Li Yanchao led his troops to intercept the Heishui Department, and Jing Renzhong led his troops to intercept the Songlin Department

At three o'clock, there was a rebellion within the black car room Wei, and a noble leader led his troops to storm the king's tent and wanted to kill the chief of the black car room Wei.

At that time, more than ten miles of coalition army companies camped, and several fires broke out in several places.

At the end of the day, in addition to the Tatar department, the steppe tribes are now collapsing, and the men and horses trample on each other.

At the same time, Li Congjing stepped down from the command building, stepped on the war horse, and rushed to the battlefield in person

Instead of Li Congjing sitting in the command building, it was Mo Li, the chief military division of the Youzhou Army, and the command building at this time was long gone, and he was left alone, alone with Fengyue.

His folding fan had long since been put away, and what he held in his hand at this time was a long sword.

The last time he held a sword on the battlefield, it was during the Battle of Zelu, he helped Pei Yue to defend Zezhou, fought with a sword on the city wall, and fought with Li Jitao's rebels with the power of a scholar.

Time flies, time flies, the world is vicissitudes, and then I suddenly look back, and I don't feel that the past is ruthless.

His eyes fell on the back of Li Congjing's galloping horse, and his calm gaze was as deep as the sea.

Mo Li raised his hand, put the sword in front of his chest, and drew the sword two inches. The moonlight flickered, illuminating his eyes.

He remembered what Li Congjing said to Li Congjing when he wanted to fight.

With a clear breeze and a bright moon, he said: "Jun is like a green mountain, and he is like a pine and cypress." Jun but rest assured that he will fight hard, and he will be separated from the whole army array; If you donate your life, you will not survive! ”

Putting away the scholar's sword, Mo Li touched his stomach, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a helpless smile.

After he said that, Li Congjing kicked him in the stomach and scolded with a smile.

His heart haunted what Li Congjing had said before he left. Those words made his heart turn upside down. Those words began with the following sentence: "The war is not necessarily in a desperate situation, what you and I see is not necessarily not the appearance, but the real opportunity is often hidden under the appearance." ”

At that time, he asked, "Where do you start with this?" ”

Li Congjing replied: "There are doubts and flaws in this matter"
