On the north bank of the Yanghe River, the military village of Broken Cloud Ridge.

Gongsun Lan, dressed in red uniform, pointed to the sheepskin military map and said to Li Jing: "If the King of Qin insists on venturing out of the Great Wall to rescue Li Siyuan, there are three routes to choose from right now. First, from the northwest side of the Black Stone Fort, out of the Great Wall along the Aiyangchuan River, to the Swallow City on the Fortress, which is now our northernmost stronghold military city. Maybe after Li Siyuan breaks through, he will move closer there. This route is easy to follow, and there will be fewer enemy troops encountered, but I don't think Li Siyuan can escape all the way there after breaking through, which is too far from the place where he was defeated. ”

"In addition to this route in the north, we can also go directly west along the Yang River, that section is the East Yang River, we first go south from Broken Cloud Ridge to Huai'an, from here out of the Great Wall, and then from the fork of the river along the East Yang River to the west, and finally reach Xinghe, which is the closest to the defeat of Li Siyuan's army, but it was only the farthest range that our rangers have reached before, and we don't even have a stronghold outside the Great Wall. Moreover, there are a large number of Hu soldiers in that area now, who have ventured out of the jam, which is directly breaking into the henchmen of Hu people, which is very dangerous. ”

Li Jing thought thoughtfully, pinched his chin and said: "Needless to say, the third route you want to talk about must be to advance along the Sheep River and the Sanggan River, advance steadily all the way, seize Tiancheng, Qingzhai, Changqing, and then enter Yunzhou, right?" ”

Jing Xiang reminded Li Jing: "This is the most prudent plan, first open up the passage with Yunzhou, relieve the siege of Yunzhou, and then block the Hu people under the city of Yunzhou, and wait for General Liu Xun to stabilize Jincheng and hold the Shuozhou passage, then we can fully stabilize the situation in Daibei, and then wait until our follow-up soldiers and horses arrive, then we can take advantage of the situation to launch a counteroffensive." Drive the Hu people out of the Great Wall. Chase over Yin Mountain. ”

"Zizhen!" Li Jing thought for a long time. opened his mouth again to break the silence, and his mouth was a sigh, "Now that Li Siyuan's matter is gone, Lone is also bound to become a tiger." ”

"Lone Ce turned against Li Siyuan, if he didn't save him if he saw death now, who would dare to defect to me Li Jing in the future?" Li Jing said helplessly, "Li Siyuan's surrender can be said to make Gu see the hope of solving the troubles of the entire Shatuo and even Dai Peking University in one fell swoop." If Li Siyuan is dead. Even if we can repel the Hu people this time, it will be extremely difficult to take the opportunity to bring Daibei under the rule of the Qin Domain. If the prestige of Li Siyuan and Mrs. Liu is used, supplemented by benevolent government, and grace and power, I believe that they will eventually be able to be included in our Qin domain. Li Siyuan is very critical, if he changes to someone else, I'm afraid it will be difficult to gain their trust. Hence the said. Li Siyuan is really important. Can't really die. ”

"Using the Shatuo people to deal with the Shatuo people, and using the Daibei people to govern the Daibei, this is Lone's long-term plan, and Li Siyuan is the key person in this plan."

"In my opinion, Li Siyuan may not really be able to have such a big effect. This Li Siyuan is brave and strategic, and what he lacks is only a slight lack of prestige than Li Keyong. Now he is anti-Li Keyong, although Li Keyong has the intention of persecution, but it may not necessarily mean that he has no ideas in his heart. Look at Li Sizhao, can't he see the slightest abnormality? But he still didn't do anything after he was the worst, and Li Sizhao is the real loyal. Li Siyuan, a wolf cub, sooner or later the blue is better than the blue. If King Qin trusts him too much, he is afraid that he will inevitably suffer from his backlash in the future. In the land of Daibei, the people are indeed fierce, but could it be that Li Keyong can live to this day, but the King of Qin can't beat him? No, the real reason is just that we haven't had the energy to clean him up before. But now it's different, there are only two feudatories left in Hebei, Chengde and Wei Bo, and both of them have lost a lot of strength, Wang Jingchong has been beheaded by us, and now even the new commander has not been selected, hasn't Han Jian in Chengde Town just been killed by our CIA assassins? I heard that the generals of Weibo Town are gearing up for the handsome position right now. ”

"Your Highness, this is no longer the case. The former Hebei domains are no longer to be feared, Yiwu and Lu Long have been destroyed by us, Chengde and Wei Bo have also been greatly weakened, and their bosses have been killed by us, and now there is a lack of threat. Just a Li Keyong, do you really think he can fly into the sky? Look at him, in the past few years, he has been stubborn and proud, but the result is that he has cut his wings, and the more he mixes up, the more he regresses. Now I was trapped in the river by a few letters from His Royal Highness, and I couldn't come back. Although it is said that there are Hu people in Daibei now going south, causing some trouble. But after all, it is impossible for the Hu people to stay here forever, Daibei, or the battle between us and Li Keyong. But now Li Keyong, what qualifications does he have to fight with us? ”

Jing Xiang continued: "If you want to say something, in troubled times, you can use heavy codes, and for places like Daibei, you can simply break it and stand up. His Royal Highness was very impressed by the means after the battle of Daibei, and we can continue. All the border people of the Fan and Han dynasties in the north were forcibly moved into the provinces, states and counties of the Qin Domain, disrupted and resettled, and handed over to the local government to take care of. Then re-immigrate to Daibei, garrison, flow officials, and build roads, it will not take a few years, and this place will completely change a day. Daibei, after all, has always been Tang soil, will it be more difficult to govern than Liaodong, which was occupied by the Goguryeo people? In the final analysis, King Qin is too merciful, and it is a good thing to pass it on, but sometimes, it should be broken. The Bodhisattva lowered his eyebrows, and King Kong looked angry. ”

Li Jing said: "What does Mr. mean? ”

"If Li Siyuan can break out of the encirclement, we will naturally be happy. But if he unfortunately fails to break through and dies in battle, we can only regret it. King Qin's gaze should still return to the current situation in Datong. Li Keyong has been trapped in the river by us, and we will not be able to return again. Although there are 200,000 people in Datong going south, but the number is only staggering, in fact, we all know that there are not many elite soldiers, most of them are just rabble. And the troops available to us now, combined, can put 300,000 people on the battlefield of Datong. By numbers alone, we are far superior to the Hu people. What's more, this time we are defending against attack, what are we afraid of? Without Li Keyong, without Wang Jingchong, without Han Jian, the 200,000 rabble of Hu soldiers are simply here to die. It just so happened that we ate them in one fell swoop this time, so that they would not come back. ”

Qin Fan's work during this period of time has achieved a lot of results.

It is said that those who make good use of soldiers can already have a chance of winning before the war starts.

And now, the situation of the Qin army is indeed like this, on the surface it seems that the Hu people are menacing, but in fact. The Qin army had already quietly changed the comparison of the strength of the two sides outside the battlefield. The Hu people became a lone army. The Qin army is fighting at home. And a whole bunch of thugs were invited.

However, Li Jing still shook his head and sighed: "If it is not a last resort, Gu is still unwilling to implement a high-pressure policy." This kind of suppression strategy is not a good strategy, and I don't want it, while still fighting abroad, one day a rebellion broke out within itself."

"King Qin will definitely not abandon us, and the brothers of the friendly army must be near the Great Wall now! Let's work harder, the future of Shatuo still depends on us. Before Shatuo's revival, Lao Tzu didn't want to die so early! Li Siyuan loudly boosted morale on the horse.

"Yes!"

"Cheer up, don't take it lightly!"

"Yes!"

Li Siyuan nodded with satisfaction, turned around, and at the moment of turning around, he heard the sound of horns all over the mountains!

The earth was trembling, the mountains were shaking, and countless black-pressed Hu Qi, like ghosts, rushed out from all directions. The shouts shook the sky.

Li Siyuan held the back of the long lance's hand, and the green tendons burst out.

before coming out of the tiger's den. Into the wolf's den again!

"To the east, to the east, to the east!" There was only one thought left in their hearts, three thousand brothers covered them to break through, and when they broke through on the road, thousands of brothers fled to this place after desperately dying in the palace, they must not be destroyed here, and they must not let those brothers down.

"Shatuo is immortal!" Li Siyuan shouted loudly, rode his horse and crossed the lance, and rushed towards the east, where he looked weak. The knights behind him followed, shouting in unison, "Shatuo is immortal!" "It's like a huge ballista, off the string.

Li Siyuan's instincts on the battlefield were astonishing, and when the Tatar cavalry attacked, there was a problem with the coordination between the two divisions of Timber Thorn and the Red Devil, and the two were unable to attack at the same time, resulting in a clear gap between the two divisions. However, Li Siyuan was leading his troops to rush straight to this weak joint, and under the desperate impact, this weak joint was actually regarded as dead and the indomitable Shatuo army rushed out of a huge passage.

Li Siyuan didn't dare to fight, and he didn't dare to turn his head back, but he just rushed forward all the way to the east.

When Tiemu Thorn and Red Devil mobilized their troops and horses to outflank them, it was already too late, and in the end, more than 3,000 horsemen rushed out, leaving only the corpses of a few hundred soldiers who died in battle.

An ambush battle, in the blink of an eye, has become a pursuit battle for endurance!

Night turns into day.

Li Siyuan led the remnants of the army to run outside the vast congestion for a night, the people were sleepy and the horses were tired, they fought and retreated, alternately covering the retreat.

The retreat route was entirely composed of a bloody road covered with the corpses and blood of Shatuo warriors.

However, the Tatars persevered, did not give up, and chased after each other.

When he arrived at the last palace battle, Li Siyuan even saw the Khitan military flag fluttering in the distance.

Seeing this Khitan military flag, Li Siyuan knew in his heart that the thousands of brothers who broke through in the other direction to attract attention had all been killed.

The Hu cavalry who stayed there also joined in the pursuit, and they rested alternately, taking turns to pursue, not giving the Shatuo people a chance to breathe at all.

The situation is getting more and more desperate!

Persisted until mid-day, Li Siyuan and the others heard the sound of waves in the distance, and followed the sound to discover the Dongyang River.

"The whole army dismounts, drinks the horses and drinks, and rests for a while!" Li Siyuan measured the distance between Hu Qi and them, and gave an order. Even if they knew that the pursuers were imminent, they couldn't run all the time, people couldn't stand it, and the war horses couldn't stand it.

The Shatuo soldiers let out a burst of cheers and rushed to lead their horses to the Dongyang River. While drinking horses, the Shatuo soldiers finally had time to take out the dried meat of the Hu people who had been prepared before the breakout and devoured it.

Li Siyuan looked at this scene and sighed in his heart. He called Yang Lin to his side and said in a low voice: "Staff Officer Yang, we have now arrived at the Dongyang River, and if we go down the river, we can cross the Great Wall and enter the front of the mountain." There, this is the territory of the Qin Domain, I need you to bring a team of brothers to rush to ask for help! ”

Yang Lin was a little surprised, and raised his eyes to look at this young Shatuo man, "King Jun, we have arrived at the Dongyang River, as long as we follow the river to the east, we will be able to truly break through immediately." ”

"But our horses can't do it!" Li Siyuan shook his head.

Yang Lin glanced back, even if he was a liaison staff officer, he could see at this time that the war horses were almost all wasted, and even if he drank water and rested, he wouldn't be able to last long.

"You take a hundred horsemen, two horses each, and go to the Black Stone Fort as fast as possible, so that the Qin army can send troops to rescue. Further from here, halfway to Blackstone Fort is the mouth of the Great Wall, which is a dangerous place, and we will try to get there, and hold on there for help! "From here to Blackstone Fort, there are one hundred and fifty miles, and even if the mouth of the Great Wall is halfway down the road, there are seventy or eighty miles away. Li Siyuan didn't know if they could hold on there, but he didn't say it.

Whether it is Li Siyuan or Yang Lin, they all know that it is too far away, and with the current tired army, under the pursuit of the Hu people, it is impossible to reach the mouth of the Great Wall, and even if they arrive, they will not be able to wait for the arrival of reinforcements. But they knew better that the Shatuo Army had no other way to go, and Li Siyuan's arrangement was not so much that there was a glimmer of hope, but rather that it was based on Yang Lin's admirable performance during this time, and he didn't want him to be buried here in vain.

"If you are willing to fight to the death with Hu Lu, please ask the king of the county to appoint someone else to ask for help." Although Yang Lin is a scholar, the friendship formed on the battlefield makes him unwilling to escape.

"You owe me, three thousand brothers, you owe me." Li Siyuan said coldly.

"The King of the County!"

"Call me Miao Jilie, Lao Yang, although you are a scholar, you are also a good man of iron blood, if there is an afterlife, I will definitely be a brother with you!" Li Siyuan sighed, patted Yang Lin on the shoulder, turned around and strode to the side.

"Wait for me, I'll definitely bring back reinforcements." Yang Lin gritted his teeth, his eyes a little moist. The boy didn't flick when he had tears, but at this time he couldn't stop crying.

The sound of the whole team coming from the side of the Dongyang River.

Li Siyuan looked at the wounded soldier until Yang Lin left, and he didn't look back again. It wasn't until the sound of the horse's hooves was far away that he exhaled a long breath and gave the order: "The whole army will go up the mountain and stand here for reinforcements." ”

Li Siyuan didn't go to the mouth of the Great Wall as he told Yang Lin, there was still eighty miles to go there, and the war horse couldn't run that far at all. Instead of being caught up by the Hu people halfway, it is better to retreat to the mountain next to it, rest your strength, get ready, and fight Hu Qi to the end.

Not long after the Shatuo army withdrew into the mountain, this hill on the bank of the Dongyang River was surrounded by the Hu people, like an iron bucket. (To be continued......)
