However, it was said that Xiao Gan used a clever plan, surrendered hypocritically, and planted an ambush in the city, Xu Tianyi was anxious for quick success, and the desire for profit was consumed, and he did not listen to Xu Qing's persuasion, insisted on entering the city, and was finally ambushed by the Liao soldiers, and most of the soldiers under his command were lost, among which Chen Chengfeng was killed and Yuan Jie was captured. Xu Tianyi relied on his strong martial arts, as well as the three brothers Xu, Ji, and Huo to lead troops to respond, and was able to escape. The three brothers Xu, Ji, and Huo also saved many remnants, and since this battle, whether in the Liao army or the Song army, the three brothers are also very prestigious. Later, the titles of the three gradually became well-known, among which Huo Rui was known as the 'Demon King of the Mixed World' because of his bravery, and Ji Qing was known as the 'Lightning Arrow' because of his accurate and fast arrows. As for Xu Qing, because of his desperate fight to save his comrades, he is called 'Tianbaoyi'! Of course, these are all afterthoughts, and I will not go into detail one by one.

The night passed, Xu Tianyi was defeated and retreated, and more than 10,000 soldiers and horses under his command were folded in half, leaving only more than 3,000 remnants.

By noon the next day, Tong Guan's army had been completed, and he was waiting for Xu Tianyi to deliver a message. There are many sleepless nights and long dreams, and Tong Guan has already made up his mind, whether the Liao people surrender or not, they will march in a big way and seize Yanjing quickly.

Suddenly, someone urgently reported that there was a remnant army in the direction of Yanjing after saying that it was the soldiers and horses of the self-army. Tong Guan suddenly changed color when he heard the news, and he was anxious to close it and watch, and saw a team of untidy soldiers coming, and the first general was Xu Tianyi.

Tong Guan glanced at the team, and then looked at the rear, seeing that the remnants were less than half of the original, he suddenly trembled with anger, and shouted with all his might: "Useless mediocrity!! I lost so many soldiers and horses of the old man, come on!! If you don't give the old man a quick pass, this mediocre talent will be executed on the spot!! The rest of them were tied up by the old man!! ”

When Xu Tianyi and other soldiers heard this, they all changed color, and hurriedly dismounted one after another to accuse. During this period, Huo Rui opened his mouth to speak, but was secretly pulled by Xu Qing.

At this time, I saw Xu Tianyi in front of everyone, grief-stricken, choked up and shouted: "The last general is incompetent, and he has the high hopes of Lord Taiwei, and he deserves death!" I only hated that Chen Chengfeng and Yuan Jie were not familiar with the art of war, but they were eager for quick success and quick profit, and they didn't listen to my orders, and fell into the plan of Xiao Gan, the prime minister of the Liao people, and rashly led troops into the city, so that they were ambushed by the Liao people. The last general thought that these soldiers were all the fathers, brothers, and sons of the people of my Great Song Dynasty, and the relatives in the family all hoped to return early, if they died on the battlefield in vain like this, wouldn't they be wronged, so the last general could not lead Xu, Ji, Huo and other generals to fight to save them, and with the help of these three generals, the last general was able to keep these remaining soldiers!! I also hope that Lord Taiwei will not blame these three people, this battle was a fiasco, and the last general is willing to bear it with all his might, and he is willing to die!! ”

Xu Tian burst into tears, his expression was very exciting, and he said it well. The three brothers Xu, Ji, and Huo did not squeak behind them, as if they acquiesced. In fact, it was Xu Qing who secretly looked at him, and Jiaoji and Huo should not talk too much. Many of the rest of the soldiers were angry, but they didn't dare to expose it directly.

Hearing this, Tong Guan held his white beard in his hand, condescendingly, squinted his eyes, and said coldly: "Is this really the case!?" Where are Chen and Yuan!? ”

"The last general is deeply favored by Lord Taiwei, how dare he be deceived!? Back to Lord Taiwei's words, Chen and Yuan, one was killed, and the other was captured! Xu Tianyi bowed his head and bowed, his expression of guilt and grief was not false. Tong Guan heard this, snorted coldly, but cast his eyes on the three brothers Xu, Ji, and Huo behind him, and spoke to summon them. The three brothers Xu, Ji, and Huo should finish, but Tong Guan praised the three of them, and after they finished, they taught Xu Tianyi to return to the pass to see the whole army. As soon as Xu Tian received the order, he and the generals rushed back to look at the remnants of the rear, and during this period, they were indispensable to thank the three brothers Xu, Ji and Huo.

On the other side, Liu Yanqing heard that the soldiers under his command came to report, saying that Xu Tianyi led the front to defeat last night and lost his troops, so he couldn't help but change his complexion, and hurriedly went to see Tong Guan.

At that time, Liu Yanqing saw that Tong Guan's face was extremely ugly, and he didn't dare to make a sound first, and sat down at the table under Tong Guan's signal. After waiting for a while, seeing that Xu Tianyi and the others were about to rush in, they knelt down and confessed. Xu Tianyi, under Tong Guan's order, told the battle last night in detail. Tong Guan listened, and said coldly: "That Xiao Gan has always been insidious and cunning, as a general of an army, you don't know how to restrain the soldiers under your command, the crime is inevitable, the old man has followed you for many years, although there is no great achievement, it is also a little hard work, and now is the time to employ people, the right to remember first, I hope you can wear the guilt and make meritorious service in the future, otherwise if you are at fault again, you will be punished together, and you will not be spared!" ”

When Xu Tian heard this, he cried and thanked Byrne, and bluntly said that he would repay him with broken bones. Tong Guan waved his hand, ordered Xu Tianyi and other generals to sit at the table, and then turned his eyes to Liu Yanqing and asked: "The Liao people seem to intend to defend Yanjing desperately, according to Liu Dutong's opinion, what should it be?" ”

When Liu Yanqing heard this, he hurriedly bowed, and said in a condensed voice: "If you go back to Lord Taiwei, the last general thinks that if you want to conquer Yanjing, you have to have Han and Deng!" I also hope that Lord Taiwei will quickly recall these two people and start a war again!! ”

"Oh? What do you mean by that!? Tong Guan couldn't help but narrow his eyes and asked coldly. Liu Yanqing's expression was shocked, and he said sharply: "Han Shizhong has the courage of ten thousand people, and he is loyal and upright, he has been in the army for many years, and he has made a lot of miraculous achievements since the time of my Great Song Dynasty to conquer Western Xia, but because of his poor background, he has not been able to reuse, and he is really a general of the country." And that Deng Yun, who is young, is proficient in the art of war, and is both civil and military, and has a good way of training, and all the heroes under his command, and his soldiers are all brave. The death squad has made meritorious achievements in the past few months, and I must have heard of it too. The last general thought that if these two people went to the front line, they would be invincible!! ”

Tong Guan listened, but his brows were furrowed, and he secretly recommended Liu Yanqing like this, which shows that he really has a great relationship with these two people, and he is very unhappy. At this time, a general who was over forty or fifty years old in the right seat suddenly snorted coldly: "According to Liu Dutong's words, wouldn't it be that the generals who are waiting for me at the table are just squirting mouses, and they eat the imperial court's food and salary for nothing!?" ”

When Tong Guan heard this, he fixed his eyes on it, it was Pan Bo, the general of the flying dragon under his command, and he was immediately overjoyed, and said with a smile: "Are you willing to lead the army forward!?" ”

When Pan Bo heard this, he immediately shook his spirits, walked out quickly, and said: "The last general is deeply favored by the imperial court, and he will definitely be smeared with liver and brain, and after he dies, he will bring Yanjing for Lord Taiwei!" ”

When Tong Guan heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and praised it repeatedly, so he ordered Pan Bo to lead 50,000 elite soldiers to Yanjing immediately, and set up camp around the city, so as to frustrate the Liao people's spirit, teach them to retreat in the face of difficulties, and surrender within three days, otherwise when the old man's army arrives, the day of breaking through Yanjing, will slaughter all the Liao people!

Tong Guanjing was defeated, and he didn't dare to underestimate the Liao people too much, so he changed his mind and wanted to let Pan Bo try the depths.

Pan Bo listened to the order and shouted in response, his eyes were blazing. Let's say that this Pan Bo is tall and majestic, his skin and bones are as strong as iron, and he is the first fierce general under Tong Guan.

And Liu Yanqing, who was on the side, wanted to speak several times, but was interrupted by Tong Guan first, and now he heard that the military order had been issued, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and secretly paid: "Although this Pan Bo is good, but he has always been arrogant, and the Liao people are now defending the city, and they all want to fight to protect the city, and the old thief also taught this Pan Bo to set up a camp to besiege the city, and the anti-guest is the main thing, I really don't know the height of the sky, Yelang is arrogant!" ”

Just as Liu Yanqing was in a blink of an eye, Pan Bo had already strode away, seemingly to prepare the 50,000 soldiers and horses.

"Lord Tai Wei!" Liu Yanqing's heart was pinched, and just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Tong Guan's laughter: "Haha! Liu Dutong doesn't have to worry too much, Pan Bonai is the general of the flying dragon under the old man, why is it difficult to take a mere Yanjing City!? Do you think that the old man general is not as good as the two unknown juniors in the army!? ”

Liu Yanqing knew that Tong Guan was stubborn and self-serving, and the more he admonished, the worse things would become, so he had to retreat. When Tong Guan saw this, he sneered in his heart, so he turned to Xu Tianyi, the tail seat on the right, and ordered: "You and lead your subordinates to fight with the old general, learn some skills from him, and make up for their achievements as soon as possible!" ”

When Xu Tian heard this, he hurriedly got up and accepted the order.

After about an hour, Pan Bo set off according to the order, although Xu Tianyi and other generals were exhausted, but they did not dare to slack off in the slightest, each of them fought strongly, obeyed Pan Bo's orders, and led the army forward.

Let's say that when Tong Guan sent another army to capture Yanjing, on the other side, Han and Deng were camping on a certain high ground leading from Yanshan to Juyong Pass, but fortunately they both brought ten-day rations when they went, and they were not worried about the shortage of food.

On this day, the sky was getting dark, and it was already dusk. Han Shizhong couldn't help but be a little impatient when he didn't see the grain team for several days, but Deng Yun was particularly calm about this matter, and he was repeatedly appeased, thinking about how to deal with it if Tong Guan really wanted to be king in the land of Yanyun, and the situation would be turbulent at that time. During this period, Deng Yun thought about sending Zhao Yun to Daxing Mountain immediately under the stars and nights, asking for help from Niu Gao and Liang Xing, and with the blood and loyalty of these two people, they would send troops to rescue. It's just that I thought later, this time is really urgent, and when he left in the past, there were more than 10,000 brothers in Daxingshan, and in recent years, there have been many heroes from all walks of life who want to invest in Daxingshan, and now it may have doubled. Although Niu Gao and Liang Xing have accepted the imperial court's recruitment, the imperial court must still regard it as a problem for their henchmen.

Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves came, which immediately interrupted Deng Yun, who was thinking outside the tent. Deng Yun's face was shocked, and he heard someone shouting urgently: "It's coming!" Here it comes!!! The grain team is coming~!! ”

"Hahahaha!! It's hard to wait for me!! As soon as the news started, a burly and huge figure rushed out of a certain big tent with a fierce wind, it was Han Shizhong. At this time, Yang Zaixing, Hu Yantong and other generals also rushed over. The crowd hurriedly ordered the scout to come, and when they heard that the grain team had taken the southeast path, and deviated from the grain route given by Tong Guan, they were all angry.

"Alright. Brothers, the food team has arrived, so in case of emergency, it is time for us to return to the front line as soon as possible! ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, and they looked at each other, and saw a person with eyes like knives, not tall or short, with a strong body and an ordinary face, but with a reassuring charm, as if even if the sky fell, there was this person who could solve it and turn evil into good fortune.

"Haha!! In the past few days, Long Man, you have this sentence that is most in line with my heart!! Han Shizhong laughed when he heard this, and quickly gave orders to several soldiers under his subordinates, Deng Yun, Yang Zaixing, and Zhao Yun also got on their horses, a total of more than dozens of horses, and hurried to follow the scouts to the grain team.

Besides, on the southeast trail near here, about thousands of soldiers and horses are carrying thousands of grain wagons. Among them, there were Ye Lingfeng, Li Qiang, and Han Yu, and it turned out that Ye and Li rushed to Yanshan with their baggage that day, and they escaped the catastrophe. And Han Yu was let go by Jin Wushu, gathered some remnants, and also wanted to go to Yanshan to vote for Deng Yun. Later, Han Yu met Ye and Li, wept and wept, and told the tragic incident of being destroyed by the Jin people. Li Qiang was angry when he heard this, so he wanted to lead the army back to fight. Ye Lingfeng was much more stable, and bluntly said that the golden vulture technique almost single-handedly annihilated a military camp, which was so powerful that it was not an enemy for him, so it was better to go to Yanshan first to report the matter to the general of the army, and then discuss with Deng Yun. So everyone agreed, that is, the journey, but because of the escort of the grain cart, and on the way accidentally detoured, it took a lot of time, and when everyone arrived at the Yanshan company camp, they knew that Yanshan had been broken, and the army had already rushed to Juyong Pass.

At that time, there were many discrepancies in the amount of grain received by the generals who ordered Tong Guan to take the grain, and it was when they were anxious that the appearance of Ye, Li and others could be described as a long drought and nectar, and they were not only overjoyed, but also enthusiastic about Ye, Li and others, and answered all questions.
