    Chapter 153 Return to Heaven (13) The sky gradually became brighter.  The team of Tong Guanxuan who set up the envoy's office gradually became active.  For the officers and staff who followed the army, camping in the wild was really a chore.  Not to mention the cold quilt and the cold tent, those Qiu Ba were inexplicably noisy and noisy last night, making it impossible to rest.  I heard troops and horses gathering together in the middle of the night and dispatching them north and south.  Many people cursed in the tent.  I also regretted twice how I came up with this unfortunate military exploit.  At dawn, everyone struggled vigorously and looked pleased with everyone. The servants were waiting to wash their faces and wash themselves. Almost everyone ate the first meal.  As a result, I was told that Commander Xuan sympathized with everyone's hard work and postponed their departure today.  Nowadays, everyone is thinking of Amitabha, so they have to go on the road in the snow and wind early in the morning. This hardship is really unbearable!  In the past, in the high seats in Bianliang, there were banquets, singing and dancing at night, and the rest was close to dawn. Who is the person who can get up early!  Today I finally don¡¯t have to doze off in the bumpy car!  Many people immediately got back into the tent and continued to catch up on their sleep.  No matter how far this Fuyan war goes, how much credit will he get in the end.  After struggling to Zhuozhou, whoever takes one more step forward will never play tricks with two houses in this life!  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Tong Guan  The big tent is still in place.  But the relaxed atmosphere of yesterday is no longer there.  In front of and behind the tent, the Huanqing army in helmets and armor stood with their swords drawn, and the place was tightly surrounded.  Some officials and staff wanted to come to see him and say hello to Commander Xuan, but they were all politely blocked.  Wang Zhen is no longer in the army. He had already ordered his troops to set off in the middle of last night and hurriedly met up with Liu Yanqing.  Tong Guan is not in a hurry to set off, so he has his reasons.  If he and Liu Yanqing had gotten together early, it might have been easier.  But for him, there is less room for change.  Now anyway, Liu Yanqing was left alone in Gaoliang Henan. For the sake of his own wealth and life, he spared no effort to pull back the three armies of Qin Fengxi River in Jingyuan and forced them back to the south bank of Gaoliang River before he gave up.  If he gets it right, it will naturally benefit him. If he gets it wrong, he will be on the back foot, and there is always room for explanation.  This is also a small trick commonly used by people in high positions.  Although Liu Yanqing was alert and Tong Guan sent people to pick him up, he decisively abandoned the Huanqing Army and fled back to Gaoliang and Henan.  It also leaves room for redemption in the overall situation.  But today, Tong Guan is still frowning.  It's rare to be happy.  No matter what, this battle is lost.  Unless Yao Gu and the others, regardless of their own retreat, fought to the death in Gaoliang Hebei, they were also beaten to a pulp by Xiao Qian.  In front of the officials, the final act is not punishable by the public.  This is already the best result. ?????????????????????? But guys like Yao Gu, the old kind and the little kind, have also been in high and low officialdom for decades.  They are not fools. After learning that Liu Yanqing fled to Gaoliang and Henan and that the Huanqing Army was irreversibly defeated, how could he still bite the bullet and continue to rush towards Yanjing?  The most likely possibility is to return as a whole division, with everyone retreating and slowly wrangling.  The old and small species have complete strength. Even if they can't help themselves, they can no longer suppress them Maybe the power of the Yan war will fall to their faction!  How to fight this lawsuit, it seems, we have to rely on the efforts of the faction of our allies in Bianliang At least we have not fallen into an irreparable situation, and there is always room for disagreement.  But it is inevitable that a lot of money will be lost Who of those guys is not extremely arrogant, but in fact they still only recognize money?  Regarding Yanjing, Tong Guan didn't even dare to think about it now. Today, in the tent, he was thinking about how to deal with this defeat without having to pay a high price.  After thinking about it, he felt somewhat confident but still uneasy. The more he thought about it, the more irritated he became. Breakfast was useless. Instead, he beat and scolded many of the servants who tried to persuade him to eat. When he was doing the expert method, he almost beat to death one of his most beloved beautiful children in the past with a big stick.  .  It was almost noon now, but no one dared to come up to persuade Xuan Shuai to eat.  Tong Guan finally started tossing and turning on the couch, feeling like thunder in his stomach. From waking up in the night to now, he had never asked anyone to clean up and groom himself. Now he strode out of the inner tent with disheveled hair, angrily  He yelled: "You scoundrels, you want to take refuge with someone else before someone is dead? Get up and wait for someone else's family! Be careful, one of them will impose military law on you!" He then rushed out with bared teeth and claws.  The family members, concubines and servants who were waiting with bated breath in the outer tent knelt on the ground shivering.  I almost died of fright.  Amidst his roar, one by one fell to the ground, not daring to move.  Seeing his servant look like this,The anger in his chest became even greater, and he laughed ferociously.  I really have plans to kill a few people to see the blood!  At this moment, a respectful voice from the general came from outside the tent: "Can anyone please tell Commander Xuan? We received another urgent military message, but it was sent by Zhao Xuanzan!" Tong Guanjiu  When I heard this voice in the outer tent, I was startled.  Zhao Liangsi followed Guo Yaoshi to seize Xiao Yan's back camp and reestablish the title of the Ever-Victorious Army.  Zhao Liangsi boasted that he could use Medicine Master Guo and his victorious army to achieve great things.  That day, he was also angry that Xiao Yan dared to disobey his orders. He used Tong Guan so highly on him because he expected him to contribute to the war to defeat Yanjing.  Just like how he captured Zhuozhou and Yizhou with a few hundred soldiers and horses.  As a result, Xiao Yan ignored Yanjing and went north to resist the Jurchens and went south.  Zhao Liangsi suggested this just because he was angry with Xiao Yan and was thinking of how to control him. If Xiao Yan hadn't blocked the Jurchen, it would have relieved his unspeakable flank worries. He really wanted to continue  Xiao Yan immediately cleaned up!  A Nangui surrenderer has plenty of means to deal with him!  Taking away his back camp was a small way of venting his anger, so he let Zhao Liangsi go.  To be honest, Tong Guan didn't expect the thousands of victorious troops who changed hands between Xiao Yan and Guo Yaoshi after surrendering to be of any use.  Later, he focused on planning the battle to cross the Gaoliang River north with Liu Yanqing, thinking carefully about how to swallow up the full power of Fu Yan.  Zhao Liangsi and the others were not taken into consideration. There was very little news from Zhao Liangsi. They only knew that the title of the Ever Victorious Army had been reestablished and that Guo Yaoshi was temporarily in charge.  Now that the situation has become a mess, why did he suddenly come out again to cause trouble?  At that moment, Tong Guan wanted to disappear, but later he thought that Zhao Liangsi and Guo Yaoshi were also on the line of Gaoliang River.  Although they don't have a share in Beidu, they are still close enough to the battlefield, and they may be able to learn some of the military information ahead.  Then he coldly said to his servant: "Aren't you going to serve me to wash my clothes? Tell them, after I wash my clothes, bring this military intelligence courier up, so I can come and ask for it personally!" The silver-medal military intelligence courier sent by Zhao Liangsi came from  The Liao people's Chang Shengjun had only been in the Song army for a few months.  In the past, military information was conveyed by station, but when it came to the Xuanfu Control and Envoy Office, there would naturally be a special secretary who would accept it, give him a receipt, and send him back.  Now, I didn't expect that before I crossed the Baigou River, I would bump into Xuan Shuai's carriage.  Last night, Wang Zhen, on Tong Guan's order, sent troops on the road to greet these urgent deliveries conveying military information, and brought them to Tong Guan as soon as possible without even going through the pedestrian department of the Xuanfu Zhizhi Department, which was responsible for the exchange of military information.  .  All this is just for fear that the report of the defeat on the front line will be spread to Bianliang before Tong Guan has time to make up for it, and be used by people with ulterior motives.  This former Liao Army military intelligence officer had never been brought to see a senior official of the Song Dynasty like Tong Guan. In front of Tong Guan's tent, he was sandwiched by more than a dozen guards of the Huanqing Army, and he couldn't help but tremble.  I don¡¯t know how long I waited, but when I heard a sound from inside the tent, the guards of the Huanqing Army walked into the tent with him in their arms.  Tongguan is a big tent, and the outer tent is divided into four or five light and dark rooms, which can accommodate thirty or forty servants.  The ground was covered entirely with velvet carpets. When I stepped on the snow-spattered boots, I almost cried when I looked at the black footprints coming all the way.  In the big tent, the fragrance is thick and it is quiet.  Under the guidance of several personal guards, he turned around a screen and entered the inner tent. At the entrance of the tent, the urgent courier knelt down with a plop and kept kowtowing: "I've seen Commander Xuan, I've seen Commander Xuan! I serve Zhao Xuanzan and Guo  I am in charge of military orders and conveying military information. If you don¡¯t want to rush into the Xuan Commander¡¯s palace, it will be a capital crime for me!¡± Tong Guan had already changed into a robe and a long-winged gauze hat, and was sitting there with a graceful look on his face.  Looking at the frightened courier, he chuckled and relaxed: "If Zhao Xuanzan has any military information, just tell him. When he comes back later, I will also give Guo Duguan a message. He belongs to  I have never seen him since the Song Dynasty. Anyone who serves the Song Dynasty with all his heart will never let him end up What is the military situation ahead?" Hearing the softened tone of figures like Tong Guan, this man was already panicking.  The stunned Ji Ji finally felt a little more at ease, and he still kept kowtowing, but the ground was covered with velvet blankets, so it didn't hurt much if he touched it.  "We, the Ever Victorious Army, have been busy building the pontoon bridge. We don't have many people, no civilians, and we don't have the materials. The construction is slow During the process of building the bridge, the Huanqing Army has already crossed the river downstream of us  Then I saw the Liao cavalry brigade burning the ferry surrounding the Qing army. We all stopped and hid on the south bank for fear that the Liao people would find out Fortunately, we are all from Yan and are familiar with the terrain.  The ferry they were looking for was hidden, and the Liao people did not notice it Then they continued to build the bridge. At night, you could see the fire on the north bank, saying that it was the Liao people attacking the Qing army's camp After the pontoon bridge was set up, Zhao Xuanzan and  Du Guan Guo then led his troops to cross north, and handed over the general information to the villain. He said that he would be traveling day and night and rushed it to the Xuan Commander's office. The villain did not rest for a moment on the way, but he bumped into the Xuan Commander here  ¡­¡± ThatOnly halfway through his words about urgent delivery of cards, Tong Guan suddenly stood up.  Zhao Liangsi and Guo Yaoshi had never received the military order to cross the border, so why should they build a pontoon bridge?  Before the courier had finished speaking, Tong Guan no longer cared about his graceful demeanor and rushed forward: "What about the military situation?" The courier with the silver medal stopped, took off the cowhide bag on his back, and took out the seal.  The preserved military information documents were presented with both hands. Tong Guan snatched them over and hurriedly unfolded them. After a quick glance, he stumbled and shouted: "What a Zhao Liangsi! What a master Guo! He actually has such skills!"  The military information document was written by Zhao Liangsi himself.  The main force of the Liao army Xiao Qian has defeated the Huanqing army and is pressing eastward against the three armies of Qin Feng and Xihe in Jingyuan.  He and Yaoshi Guo led these five thousand troops who were familiar with the mountains and rivers of Yan. They took advantage of the opportunity to attack Yanjing, which was enough to break through the empty city of Yanjing and make Xiao Qian's troops lose their foundation. As long as the army follows up, Yan Yun  The land is at your fingertips!  ¡°Senior General Tong Guan, after thinking about the current situation for so long, I can¡¯t think of it more clearly.  Xiao Qian's strength is only that much, only forty to fifty thousand.  It took all the effort to defeat the Huanqing Army.  They also wanted to force the three armies of Qin, Feng, and Xihe in Jingyuan to retreat to the south of the Gaoliang River. They were already far east of Yanjing.  You are not allowed to return to the teacher in a hurry.  Pharmacist Guo's ever-victorious army is indeed an army familiar with the terrain of Youyan. If he attacks the empty city of Yanjing through a secret route, he has a great chance of succeeding!  As long as they succeed, Xiao Qian's troops will lose their support, not to mention the family members of his army and horses, most of whom are in the city. If Yanjing changes hands, they will no longer have the fighting spirit.  When the army rolls in, Xiao Qian has no choice but to be defeated!  Unexpectedly, Zhao Liangsi gave him such a big surprise.  The difficult situation that Tong Guan was facing had turned around in the blink of an eye!  He grabbed the military information document and almost jumped in front of the map hanging in the tent with one big step.  He pressed his fingers anxiously on the map and searched carefully.  The guards of the Huanqing Army standing below all stared wide-eyed. At Tong Guan's age, that move just now was so nimble!  Tong Guan¡¯s eyes widened as he stared at the map in front of him.  The Huanqing Army was powerless.  Their ferry pontoon was also burned.  The three armies of Jingyuan, Qin, Feng, Xihe, etc. now don¡¯t know whether they have retreated across the Gaoliang River or whether they have burned down their pontoon bridge This advantage cannot be discovered by the old people, and cannot be picked up by them!  He turned sharply to Ji Di who was kneeling on the ground and did not dare to look up: "Do you know where the pontoon bridge built by Zhao Xuanzan is?"  Not a word could come out.  Tong Guanmeng waved his hand and ordered the guards of the Huanqing Army: "Pass a Jun order to the guards around so and so, and send out several thousand more. All the beasts of burden on the chariots and horses will be handed over to you. If anyone wants to stop them, do it."  Let's fight! Tell your army commanders and above to come to my tent immediately and follow the orders! Take this urgent message and cross the river from the pontoon built by the Changsheng Army to rescue Yanjing City day and night.  Ying Zhao Xuanzan and the others must get ahead of Laozhong Xiaozhong and the others!" His orders were rushed and rushed, and in his eagerness, he was a little confused.  These Huanqing army guards were not old people around him. How could they understand what he was saying? They all looked at each other and stood blankly on the spot.  Tong Guan was so angry that he said: "You princes, hurry up and tell the military commanders and above, and listen to the orders in the tent! The military situation is like a fire. Within a moment, someone will march on the military law!" Hearing this sentence,  The guards of the Huanqing Army received their orders loudly, turned around and rushed out.  Tong Guan raised his head and looked at the top of the tent, clasped his hands and said two blessings: "Bodhisattva reminds me that someone like Tong can capture Yanjing. As long as he can overcome this difficult situation, Tong will definitely fast to fulfill his vow and rebuild his golden body!  "The brutal fighting is still unfolding at the top of Yanjing City.  Time can be seen passing by slowly, from morning to noon, and from noon to evening.  Since Yelu Dashi personally climbed onto the city wall and set fire to it, cutting off his own retreat, the fight between Song and Liao at the top of Yanjing City suddenly became ten times more brutal than before.  These Liao troops who were gathered together for Yelu Dashi completely fought for their lives.  Even if it means building a wall with corpses to block it.  The Song army could not be allowed to take another step forward.  They fought step by step, retreating slowly.  Finally, the two wings of the Song army were pushed along the city wall to the vicinity of Kaiyang Gate and Xixian Gate.  Around the archery towers of the two city gates, both sides lost hundreds more corpses.  The Song army fought in and was killed again.  Yelu Dashi was always among the soldiers, shouting for a fierce battle and inspiring the soldiers of the Liao army to fight to the death.  These Liao troops rushed to the city wall with a certain death intention, and now they had no way out, so they were just fighting for their lives.  There is only Yanjing City left in Huanghuang Daliao. Once lost, they will no longer have a foothold!  In front of these red-eyed Liao troops, countless offensives of the Ever Victorious Army were crushed.  Finally, it was a little too hard to attack.  They rushed from the Gaoliang Hejian Road to the gates of Yanjing City. They rushed into the city without even taking a breath, and then fought bloody battles until now.  Everyone is raised by his father and his parents, if the body is not made of iron, who can support it?  Not to mention these Liao people are really ruthless.  Half of Yanjing was set on fire to cut off their way into the city. Now the southern city of Yanjing was burned like a volcano, and countless carved railings and painted buildings were reduced to ashes.  So what if we capture Kaiyang Gate and Xixian Gate?  Not only can they continue to kill along the city wall, but they have no doubt that these Liao people will set fire everywhere, even destroying Yanjing City in their own hands and not letting the Song army get it!  Pharmacist Guo has already come to supervise the formation in person, and even once put on armor and charged forward.  He almost rushed to Yelu Dashi and was shot back by a hail of arrows.  Under the watchful eye of Zhao Liangsi, he killed several soldiers of Changsheng who were retreating. But in the end, the soldiers of Changsheng sat down on the top of the city one after another. No matter how hard he kicked, he could not get up. Some even  He fell asleep in a pool of blood and ice.  When things got to this point, there was nothing that Medicine Master Guo could do, so he had to ask Chang Sheng's soldiers to place layers of side signs on the city wall to stabilize the city wall and confront the Liao army. He could take a breath for the time being.  The Song army stopped approaching, and the Liao people were exhausted and had no strength to fight back.  Both sides set up sideboards on the city wall, made a temporary truce, and then started a strange confrontation.  The fire was burning not far away.  Night has gradually fallen, but the fire in Yanjing City has not reduced even a little bit, spreading heat waves to all directions.  The flames rolled around, turning the Liao people's accumulation of more than a hundred years and their existence in Yan land into ashes.  Every high-end family was involved in the fire one after another.  Pillars of smoke rose into the sky, and they seemed to be inseparable from the leaden clouds.  The heat wave was rising, and from a distance, the towering archery towers on Yanjing City seemed to be crumbling.  Most of the people in the city have now gathered in Yanjing North City.  Even the palaces in the city have been emptied, and a few Yulin eunuchs and maids escorted Queen Xiao of this dynasty to the Tongtianmen archery tower in the north.  At this time, there were not many cries. Everyone stared blankly at everything in front of them, at the fire in front of them, at the Yanjing City that was on the verge of extinction, and at the last bit of luck in Daliao.  A blazing flame.  Whether Xiao Qian can return to the army in time or not is of little concern to most people.  I just hope that this violent and chaotic world can stop soon. No matter what the final fate is, I will just have to accept it!  Pharmacist Guo strode back to the Danfengmen Archery Tower. Now, the bottom floor of the Archery Tower was already full of wounded soldiers of the Ever Victorious Army. They were writhing and screaming there, with blood flowing all over the floor. Everywhere they stepped was wet and sticky.  of.  Changsheng Junjiandao came unexpectedly, and it was great to have some dry food and water on him. There was very little medicine for the wounded soldiers, and he watched helplessly as they died there.  Even dry food and water are not much left now, and it will never be possible to survive until tomorrow - but if Yanjing cannot be defeated tomorrow, I'm afraid Xiao Qian has already returned to the army?  After passing over the wounded soldiers, Medicine Master Guo walked up to the second floor of the archery tower, where several personal guards guarded Zhao Liangsi.  Under the firelight, Zhao Liangsi's eyes were almost blood red, and he looked at Medicine Master Guo, but could not say a word.  Pharmacist Guo greeted tiredly: "Is there any water?" A guard immediately offered a water bag. Pharmacist Guo picked it up and drank half of the bag.  Zhao Liangsi stood beside him, both of them looking at each other in silence.  I didn¡¯t expect that Yelu Dashi would still be in Yanjing City. I didn¡¯t expect that Yelu Dashi would have such a high appeal in Yanjing City. I didn¡¯t expect that this surprise attack would end in a stalemate!  Pharmacist Guo has used all his skills in his life, and he will not hesitate to kill, and his body is also scarred.  The victorious soldiers under his command have not fought so bravely for a long time.  But I didn't expect Yelu Dashi to be so cruel, burning half of the city to prevent their victorious army from spreading, and fighting to the death in the small area of ??the city wall.  Looking at the current situation, we are gnawing along the city wall, and we will not be able to capture all the city gates in three to five days. Who knows what the situation will become in three to five days!  The sky is getting darker and darker, but with the light of the fire, the interior of the arrow tower is still brightly illuminated.  The wind whipped up by the fire outside roared past, like a shrill whistle.  Pharmacist Guo smiled coldly: "The city of Yanjing was burned like this. You can see it from dozens of miles away, but you don't know where Xiao Qian is?" Zhao Liangsi said with difficulty: "Can't we add more strength to kill him?  See if Yelu Dashi dares to burn the entire Yanjing city! As long as we rush through the Kaiyang and Xixian gates, we can enter the Yanjing city!" Pharmacist Guo snorted and pointed to his wounds: "I  They have tried their best! Do you think they don't want to capture Yanjing as soon as possible? The battle is just a matter of one sword and one shot. If you can't rush through, you can't launch a large group, so you have to fight for your life with the Liao people.  , but we are not so?Time!  " The two looked at each other, with the same meaning in their eyes. Should they pull away and leave? Their original idea was to take advantage of the opportunity to attack Yanjing. In the end, they did not expect to be entangled by Yelu Dashi. Even without this incident  Guo Yaoshi and Zhao Liangsi had no doubt that Yelu Dashi would gather his troops and fight with them in the streets of Yanjing City to hold them back! As long as Yelu Dashi was there, it would be difficult for Yanjing City to fall!  No one knows where Xiao Qian is now. Maybe when the sky lights up again, they will see Xiao Qian's army and horses appearing in front of them. But neither of them can say the word "retreat".  They were all people with high ambitions and a strong ambition for power. Zhao Liangsi returned to the Song Dynasty earlier, while Guo Yaoshi came later. Zhao Liangsi had always struggled to get ahead in the official circles of the Song Dynasty, while Guo Yaoshi always wanted to support his troops and respect himself.  Seeing that this great achievement that can make them rise to the top is right in front of them, who can be willing to give up? Maybe if they work hard and endure a little longer, they can grab the Yanjing City before Xiao Qian arrives!  , his own reinforcements can also be killed! The two looked at each other in silence for a long time, and Medicine Master Guo suddenly stood up and threw the water bag on the ground, causing water to splash everywhere. "Isn't it just a life, you thief?  At that time, there were no soldiers, and they all starved to death.  From the Resentful Army to the Ever-Victorious Army, I have made money all these years, and I have died dozens of times if I wanted to die sooner!  I am going down to organize the troops and urge my subordinates to fight at night. See if Yelu is a rock, I am still stronger!  Zhao Xuanzan, if you lead a group of soldiers, the fire cannot continue to burn, and the fire can always be reduced. Once the fire becomes small, lead the troops to rush in and turn the Yanjing city upside down!  After grabbing all the city gates, Xiao Qian rushed back and could only stare at the city gates without any means!  " He stepped down from the archery tower and greeted loudly: "Five ministers, six ministers, if you are not dead yet, please say yes!  This great power to the heavens is determined by a certain pharmacist Guo!  It's better than being locked up inside a fence with Xiao Yan and looking at the sky in all directions!  Gather your troops and prepare to collide with Yelu Dashi again!  " And Zhao Liangsi, clutching the railing of the archery tower tightly, stared blankly at the fire burning in front of him. Under the light of the fire, everything in Yanjing City seemed to be swaying and deforming. The heavy snow in the sky has not stopped at all from yesterday to now.  There are signs of a break. Now there is a strong wind, and there are howling sounds like ghosts and wolves all around Yanjing City, making the fire even stronger. In the darkness, there are countless soldiers and horses heading towards the fire.  Yanjing City is rushing towards this city. With so many heroes involved in this Yanyun land, no one knows what their fate will be in the next moment! It is in the lower reaches of Gaoliang River, southeast of Yanjing City.  There were blazing fires on several pontoon bridges, and the fire illuminated the Gaoliang River, like a golden light flashing. During the withdrawal process, the three armies of the Jingyuan, Qin, Feng, and Xihe Rivers demonstrated their elite character.  Quickly and neatly, under alternate cover, no one or one horse was left behind. However, in two days and one night, the entire division had retreated to the south bank of the Gaoliang River, much faster than when it arrived.  Gradually it dimmed, and the fire looked more and more like blood. The last one to retreat to the south bank of the Gaoliang River was the Jingyuan Army. Lao Zhong and Yang Keshi retreated in person, while the Liao people only used long blocks to retreat.  It was not until they saw the Song army retreating across the Gaoliang River and starting to burn the pontoon bridge that they turned back on the south bank of the Gaoliang River, Xiao Zhong Yao Gu, and the Xi army had enough status.  The generals who were able to get there all led their guards here to wait for Lao Zhong to retreat safely. Everyone was silent when they saw him return safely, and no one showed any joy on their faces.  Many of the generals' personal guards were on the river bank, silently watching the fires on several pontoon bridges getting bigger and bigger, watching the sparks flying and exploding, and the Western Army launched its second full-scale offensive against Yanjing.  This failed. This time, the defeat was even worse than that of Baigouhe. The Huanqing army was almost wiped out, and hundreds of generals were lost.  He returned to the south bank without saying a word. As long as there is a little bit of blood in the heart, who would not feel a great shame! Yang Keshi immediately stood next to Lao Zhong, watching the firelight flowing on the Gaoliang River, motionless in the heavy snow, with muscles on his face.  The old man was also silent. In the wind and snow, his figure looked ten times more haggard than his old appearance. He bent over and sat on the horse, coughing from time to time, as if the wind would be stronger.  It seemed like they were going to blow him away. After returning to the south bank, Xiao Zhong, Yao Gu and others greeted him, but Lao Zhong didn't answer a word. They tried to persuade him to go back to the camp set up on the south bank to rest.  Just pretend he didn't hear it. After a while, Yang Keshi suddenly turned his head.He said stiffly: "Mr. Lao Zhong, what are we going to do next?" Lao Zhong coughed, and a wry smile appeared on his face: "What else can we do? Set up camp on the south bank, and each prepare their own military reports.  Everyone is looking for their own backers. They are in Bianliang. There is no need for us warriors to come forward and fight But I don't know when I will be able to cross the Gaoliang River again. By then, I'm afraid I won't be able to see you.  ¡­¡­¡­¡± Yang Keshi chuckled and murmured to himself: ¡°I really envy my white soldiers. At least they are still in Gaoliang and Hebei and still have the opportunity to fight with the Jurchen Tatars¡­  But it was me who took a walk in the north and south of the Gaoliang River" He couldn't say any more. He suddenly pinched the horse's belly hard, and the horse neighed loudly, jumped down from the river bank, and stepped into the cold water of the Gaoliang River.  At this moment, a pontoon bridge had been burned and crashed into the river.  Yang Keshi looked up to the sky and shouted: "The sky is long, my subordinates are fighting bloody battles in front of me, but I, Yang, have retreated! How can I have the dignity to lead the army and become a general with such behavior? In the land of Yanyun, more than a hundred people  Years have passed. Is it really impossible for us, the great military officials of the Song Dynasty, to take it back?  It seems that only Xiao Yan and Xiao Xuanzan came back from the south!" No one on the river bank could speak when they heard Yang Keshi's shrill shouts.  A thought suddenly crossed everyone¡¯s mind.  Baigouhe suffered a disastrous defeat that day, before Yelu Dashi and Xiao Qian defeated Xiongzhou.  The Western Army of the Song Dynasty was also discouraged and never thought that they could cross the Baigou River again.  The scene now seems to be very different from that time.  At that time, Xiao Yan created an impossible miracle. He captured Zhuoyi Prefecture with a few hundred soldiers, led the Western Army across the river and headed north, launching this offensive.  Now that the Western Army has all been driven back to Gaoliang Henan, Xiao Yan is still in Gaoliang Hebei. Can he still create a miracle and capture the city of Yanjing?  Can he defeat Xiao Qian again?  The people present were all veteran generals of the Western Army.  The battle experience is extremely rich.  In the past, they were somewhat disapproving of Xiao Yan's extraordinary achievements.  It is believed that they, the veteran generals of the Western Army, had their hands and feet tied up due to various reasons and were unable to fight to the death with all their strength, which allowed Xiao Yan to gain this advantage and become famous in one fell swoop.  And now, due to various reasons, when they retreated in front of the Liao people again, they couldn't help but think of Xiao Yan!  In the river, Yang Keshi suddenly raised his head, pointed to the northwest, and said loudly: "Look! Look! Is that Yanjing over there?" Upon hearing this, everyone thought that Yang Keshi was angry and a little crazy.  .  But some people looked in the direction pointed by Yang Keshi and saw the red sky in the distance to the northwest.  I hadn't noticed it before because it was still bright and no one could see that far in the snow and wind.  At this moment, because the sky is getting dark, the fire in that direction can no longer be hidden!  Those present were all veteran generals of the Western Army, who had spent their entire lives on the battlefield.  When it comes to judging distance and orientation, you can always see exactly where you are at a glance.  Dozens of generals all looked up, the cold wind blowing their cloaks behind them and making them dance.  The fire in the distance made almost half of the sky red.  The azimuth distance is exactly where Yanjing is!  Why are there fires in Yanjing?  If it gets to this point, half of the city will be burned down.  What happened in Yanjing?  Yang Keshi galloped his horse in the Gaoliang River, splashing ice-cold water all over the sky, but he didn't realize it and shouted like crazy: "It's Xiao Xuanzan! It's Xiao Xuanzan! Xiao Xuanzan has attacked Yanjing!"  We will return to the army immediately to rescue Xiao Xuanzan!" Everyone present reacted and focused on Lao Zhong.  The sudden change in Yanjing is definitely not fake.  The Liao army finally forced the Song army to retreat to the Gaoliang River. Why did they mess up their position? Did they want to lure the Song army to go north again?  And looking at the intensity of the fire, are they willing to burn half of Yanjing City to show weakness and lure the enemy?  Now Xiao Qian might be racing towards Yanjing like crazy!  But now, the pontoon bridge has burned out.  In addition to the Jingyuan Army, Qin Feng and Xihe's two armies have already been entrenched.  Moreover, the tens of thousands of troops marched back and forth from the north and south of the Gaoliang River, and their morale was already low.  How can the army move just by walking?  Not to mention that when Liu Yanqing and Tong Guan were behind him, the three armies of the Western Army could not do anything!  Even if Xiao Yan suddenly attacks Yanjing, they can't do anything to help.  I can only watch from Gaoliang Henan, filled with humiliation, grief and indignation!  Lao Zhong's old and decrepit body sat up straight on the horse. He also looked at the fire in the distance and murmured to himself: "Who on earth can have the power to seize Yanjing City from Xiao Qian's hands?"  ! What a shame and humiliation for these great Song Dynasty warriors!" In the dark of night!??, countless Liao soldiers were also galloping towards Yanjing.  The sound of thousands of horses galloping seemed earth-shattering in the night.  Xiao Qian was at the front of the army, lying on his horse, facing the heavy snowflakes, staring at the fire burning in the direction of Yanjing.  They discovered the changes in Yanjing earlier than Laozhong and the others.  The nerves of the Liao army were completely relaxed when they saw the Jingyuan, Qin, Feng, and Xihe armies retreating across the Gaoliang River and burning the pontoon bridge.  The hundreds of thousands of Song troops who crossed the river were wiped out by them in a few days.  I don¡¯t know when I can go north again. This difficult battle was miraculously won by King Xiao Qianxiao!  But I didn¡¯t expect that at this moment, something happened in Yanjing City behind me!  Everyone was anxious, tens of thousands of knights, no longer caring about their horsepower, galloping towards Yanjing with all their strength.  Where did the troops and horses come from to attack Yanjing?  Is it Xiao Yan or Jurchen who is behind it?  How could they seize such an opportunity so accurately?  I hope I can come back to Yanjing in time!  Feeling the eagerness and frustration of the soldiers around him, Xiao Qian suddenly straightened up on his horse and shouted loudly: "There are big stone forest teeth in Yanjing City. Even if the enemy attacks, Yanjing will never be captured! Let's rush back and cooperate inside and outside.  Kill all the opponents who covet our foundation at the feet of Yanjing City!" Xiao Qian shouted, which aroused the morale of his subordinates, and everyone responded unconsciously: "Da Shi Lin Ya, Da Shi Lin Ya!" "Da Liao!  In the end of the world, King Xiao Qian led them to defeat the entire Western Army of the Song Army. There is also a Dashi Linya who is in Yanjing City now. No matter how many enemies are attacking, Dashi Linya will definitely be able to save Yanjing City!  In the wind and snow, on the road leading to Yanjing City from the other direction, a group of purely cavalry horses were also charging through the snow, galloping towards Yanjing City.  There was a knight at the head, who was very tall, riding a Liaodong horse.  The wind and snow were too heavy, so he put down his face armor and wrapped it tightly with cloth.  As the athletes under his command hurried on, they looked at the fire shooting into the sky in front of them.  The grown man cursed: "You bitch, who got in front of us? It looks like the fighting was really fierce Who knows, what happened?" He felt behind him  The boys and men slowed down a little because of the fire not far away in front of them.  The grown man turned around and greeted: "You guys, let's show off your strength! Get in front of Xiao Xuanzan and find out what happened. If Yanjing City hasn't been captured yet, our white soldiers will form a formation and rush forward. How much will it cost?"  The matter has been resolved. We can still get some credit, so our hard work is worth it! When the time comes, I, Han Wu, will treat you to a drink!  Every one of them will be beaten by twenty soldiers without mercy!" He shouted loudly: "Let's go! Yanjing is right in front of us!" With his shouts, this large group rolled forward like a dragon.  The cavalry suddenly accelerated their pace, pointing straight at Yanjing City in the night and under the firelight!
