All the way to the march, the road is difficult, not even a road, to the back is almost all the way up the mountain. And the moonlight was bright, which made this group of people frightened. But it's good that it's this moonlight, otherwise this road is even more difficult to walk.

Finally, I came to the foot of Dongling Peak with a hanging heart, and with the help of the bright moonlight, I could see the cliff behind Dongling Peak. It is okay not to pass from this cliff, there is a small road on the right, but there is a sentry post on the path.

I don't want to alarm the Xia people, unless I fly over. But that's not possible.

Several commanders, Qi Zhong grew up on the border, so he was very familiar with this place, he asked: "Gao Dujian, did we really go over from Dongling Peak?" ”

"Please believe that there will be miracles, but we won't go there yet, we will stay here for a while." After Gao Min finished speaking, he came to the foot of a hill on the edge of Dongling Peak, because there were almost no roads in this area, so it belonged to the most remote place on the front line.

Gao Min searched for it and opened a big hole.

"Let's go inside."

This time everyone understands.

One by one, they grinned in, and the hole was plugged again.

Qi Zhong was still asking.

"Don't worry, we can get over, it's ......," Gao Min said, pointing to something.

Of course, he himself still found it incredible.

At this time, it was time for the fourth watch.''

Dashun City, Liyuan Fort, Rouyuan Village, Meili Fort, and Huai'an Town are all quiet. But tomorrow there will be a more violent offensive and defensive battle here for the most part.

There was also silence in front of the Slush Castle, and the snoring of the Western Xia camp was like thunder.

They fought fiercely for two days and suffered heavy casualties. The soldiers who were not injured were equally exhausted.

But the eyes of the nearly 400 people in the Slush Fort were all wide-eyed.

Wei Qingzong said: "We are going to withdraw soon. Remember. Be careful not to make any noise. ”

Hundreds of people nodded silently.

"Also, each of them memorizes the comrades on their backs, looks at my gestures, and takes turns to take them."

Dozens of men were seriously wounded, and it was a big problem to retreat immediately, so the soldiers who were not injured or lightly injured were rotated to change their backs. But in order to lose weight, Gao Min even ordered. Bury all the armor on the soldier's body in the ground.

Maybe the Xia people can find it, maybe they can't find it, but even if they find it, Wei Qingzong won't think about it.

Seeing that everyone was ready, Wei Qingzong said to the collapsed houses to the west, "Salute." ”

The three armies knelt down on one leg and gave a military salute, and under those houses were the places where the sacrificed Song soldiers were buried.

With that, everyone silently climbed down the rope from the top of the city, and there were still some supplies in the fort, but in order not to alarm the enemy. Those who dare not burn can only destroy them secretly in the evening. As for the grain, it is mixed with sediment.

What cannot be destroyed has to be left to the enemy. The only thing they really took away was the weapons in their respective hands.

After getting out of the city, Wei Qingzong bent down, and a personal guard asked, "General Wei, what's wrong?" ”

After two days of fighting, Wei Qingzong also suffered two arrows and was hit by a sword, which was still cut in his abdomen. However, in order to boost morale, he is still fighting with injuries. When I came down just now, I touched the wound.

He couldn't cry out in pain, so he waved it and endured the pain and said, "It's okay." Everyone continues to set off. ”

Hundreds of people quietly climbed to the top of the mountain and lowered their ropes, while Wei Qingzong stared at the enemy camp with binoculars.

The enemy sentries still didn't pay attention, so Wei Qingzong waved his hand and motioned for everyone to go down.

After a while, they all went down the cliff.

"Let's go." Wei Qingzong said.

As long as they crossed the Yanqing water, reached the opposite side, and then used the opposite woods, they could safely evacuate.

Everyone carefully waded into the Yanqing water.

This is the most dangerous stretch of the road.

But the more afraid you are of accidents, the more you will get into them.

Seeing that most of the people had stepped on the other side of the river, at this moment, a Western Xia sentry shouted, "The Song people have fled." ”

"Let's go." Wei Qingzong shouted loudly.

Everyone quickly rushed to the opposite bank, but at this time, the Western Xia camp in the rear also began to stir.

"Go, go, go."

Wei Qingzong kept urging.

The group continued to rush forward.

But because most of them were injured, and those who were not injured were carrying their comrades-in-arms, the speed of this line couldn't be fast.

They had walked for miles when they heard the sound of horses' hooves behind them.

"Go, go." Wei Qingzong continued to urge.

Because there is an ancient response army in front, but I am afraid that the Tangut people will find out, so I dare not get too close. But when I found out, it was a big trouble. In any case, there were still many Tangut people under the Slush Castle.

And as long as it is entangled, there will be more Xia soldiers under Huai'an Town, and at that time, even the army of Zonggu will be dragged down.

There was still no movement in front, but the sound of horses' hooves behind was getting closer and closer. Wei Qingzong thought for a while and said, "Leave a hundred people behind." ”

So saying, he picked a hundred warriors, scavenged all the arrows, stayed in a pass, and continued to shout to the others: "Go! ”

The enemy had already caught up, but there were not many cavalry in the hands of Mei Qing Baluo, only nearly a thousand horsemen. But for Wei Qingzong's strength at this time, it was also a terrible army.

Hearing the sound of horses' hooves getting closer and closer, Wei Qingzong said, "Bow down." ”

With a large mass of black shadows moving quickly.

Everyone held their breath, and seeing that there were only two or three hundred steps, Wei Qingzong roared: "Shoot." ”

With the sound of whizzing arrows, dozens of enemies fell from their horses.

"Shoot again."

Dozens of more enemies were shot, and then Wei Qingzong heard one of them shouting, "Retreat, retreat." ”

The enemy cavalry quickly retreated.

But soon the nerves became nervous again, for the enemy dismounted, and then burrowed into the woods and climbed towards the mountains on either side.

"Let's go." Wei Qingzong decisively gave the order.

As soon as the enemy ascended the mountains on either side, their line was over. So a hundred people rushed forward. However, the people in front were either wounded soldiers or soldiers with the right to fight, so they walked slowly, only for a while. Let Wei Qingzong catch up.

Wei Qingzong is gone. I had to find another terrain to lay down.

Soon. The Tanguts caught up again, and even Wei Qingzong could see a bigger fire flashing in the distance. It seems that the enemy has entered the Slush Castle and noticed that all the Song troops in the fort have withdrawn, so the army is also chasing after them with torches.

"That's bad luck." Wei Qingzong thought in his heart.

After a while, the enemy approached again, dismounted one by one, and with the help of the cover of the trees, killed them.

Everyone shot a dozen arrows in a row, but the enemy had already pounced in front of them. "Destroy the bow," Wei Qingzong said. All they held in their hands were the Divine Arm Bow, and in order to prevent the enemy from copying it, the imperial court repeatedly ordered that if they encountered danger, they must destroy the Divine Arm Bow.

A hundred people were destroying the Divine Arm Bow, and their eyes were miserable, and this order also meant that they had no life.

The enemy pounced, and Wei Qingzong ordered half of his men to continue to destroy the Divine Arm Bow. With half of his men holding swords, he began the battle.

The moonlight is bright and moving. The sword glowed coldly. The forest was filled with the clashing of swords and screams.

Wei Qingzong hacked one person to death, and another person to death. I don't know how many Xia people were hacked to death, but he kept being hit by swords, some stabbed at him, some slashed at him, and after a while, he became a bloody man.

At last he felt that the strength in his body was getting smaller and smaller, and he saw the same fire flashing behind him. Reinforcements from Chonggu arrived.

"Kill it." Chonggu shouted.

His fresh army pounced fiercely, and the Xia people felt bad, so they fled, and some even lost their horses, and quickly fled backwards.

Chonggu found Wei Qingzong, Wei Qingzong was cold all over his body at this time, and Chonggu said: "Quickly inspect and bandage Wei." ”

"Kind of Zhijun, you're here, no need, take everyone to evacuate." After Wei Qingzong finished speaking, he closed his eyes.

The main force of Wei Qingzong's 13th Brigade is still there, the officers and soldiers of the 5th Battalion of the 13th Brigade, and the 3rd Battalion are in Xiguqi, but Wei Qingzong's sacrifice also means that since the start of the war, the Song Dynasty has lost a heavy general.

Chonggu was helpless, in such a big battle, casualties were inevitable, but the 13th Brigade could not lack brigade generals, so he immediately sent someone to inform Gyeongju and asked Gyeongju to appoint a new brigade general, and continued to retreat with the remaining Slush Fort officers and soldiers.

After a while, Mei Qing Ba Luo also chased after him with a large army, and he was not reconciled and continued to chase down. However, as soon as he reached a mountain pass, countless arrows were shot from both sides, and Mei Qingba Luo had to shout, "Withdraw." ”

There is no way to chase it, although it is a moonlit night, but God knows how many people came to the rescue from Huanzhou. However, this is also good news, the more troops from Huanzhou come, the more favorable it will be for the next arrangement. Therefore, when he saw the withdrawal of the three armies from the mountain pass, he thought for a moment and said, "Set up camp here, and then report the news to General Rendo." ”

Ren Duo Lingding attacked the slush fort hard, in order to still the rear of Huanzhou, Wei Qingzong guarded the slush fort with blood, in order to still the rear of Huanzhou, and the next Wang Ju action also wanted to ensure that the rear of Huanzhou was not lost......

The rear of the ring state.

The entire Huanzhou is almost entirely mountainous, but there is a wide river area on both sides of the Malingshui. But along Malingshui, there are countless tributaries on both sides to Malingshui, these tributaries are large and small, and each tributary forms a ravine, cutting the entire Chongshan Mountains of Huanzhou into several areas.

A team of more than 3,000 people rushed quickly along the Maling River towards Huanzhou City, and in front of it was a ravine, and a small river poured into the Maling Water. There is a stone bridge on the river, after crossing this stone bridge, and then go more than ten miles, it is Huanzhou City.

The bright moon killed Wei Qingzong, but it made these people overjoyed, because they could walk at night without using torches.

"Quick, quick," one of the middle-aged men urged.

However, the expression of this group of people is very strange, they are about to approach Huanzhou City, and the strength of Huanzhou City at this moment is absolutely empty, some people are very happy, but most of them have strict expressions, even complicated.

Just then, they heard a strange sound coming from Malingshui.

Many involuntarily turned their heads to look, and then most opened their mouths wide.

They saw groups of soldiers in armor, rushing faster than horses on the ice.

"It's over." Some people think in their hearts.

There were also many people who were clever and immediately left the large group and ran towards the mountain. However, it was too late, and the Song army was divided into three, some stopped and began to release arrows, some continued to slide forward, sliding towards the small river, blocking their way, and as for the rear, they slid directly to the shore, put down the sliding board, and quickly went ashore to block the retreat of this pedestrian.
