    At the northern edge of the Kelan Army's territory is Langu County.  There is Ningyuan Village in the north of Langu County, which is an important military base that controls the border transportation routes.  This road is also a passage that has been traversed by traders for thousands of years. It is not very wide, but it can still barely allow troops and horses to pass.  Winding between the mountains.  Ningyuan Village is adjacent to Kelan Mountain in the east and is blocking this road.  Kelan Army is a poor and desolate place in the east of Hedong. It is not as advantageous as Fengfu and Yanzhou in returning trade with Xixia, and it can receive a large amount of resources from the DPRK.  Although it belongs to the garrison area of ??the Zhe family army, not many children of the Zhe family are willing to come to this place to suffer.  Although he ordered to strengthen the defense of Kelan Army.  However, Zhe Keqiu took the elite army of the Zhe family to Zhuolunchuan to wipe out the grassland tribes that had moved south. The remaining elite soldiers and generals were mostly used to strengthen the defense of Fengfu and Yanzhou.  Kelan Jun is still the same as before.  The garrison troops and horses were scattered and scattered, completely lacking the current sense of urgency of the enemy.  For example, in Ningyuan Village, according to the regulations, there should be 350 war horses, 30 hard scouts, and 217 edge archers. If the grain storage is needed for half a year, the horse materials should be doubled.  It is located in a defense system composed of four consecutive military villages running from north to south.  But now, in Ningyuan Stronghold, the three small military strongholds have been abandoned, and only the main stronghold with rammed earth and stone walls is still barely surviving.  In the meantime, all the troops, horses and archers had already dispersed, leaving only a hundred or so defenders.  A young envoy who made a mistake and was sent here and was not allowed to be promoted for ten thousand years was the commander.  The important reserves of military supplies, grain, fodder, horses, wind and materials can only be used for one or two months at most.  This commander is almost fifty years old and has premature aging.  The body becomes fatter.  He is no longer like a horseman.  All thoughts are placed on the hundreds of acres of farmland opened under the military camp.  In recent years, there has been military chaos in Yunnei.  On the contrary, many refugees were detained to work as tenant farmers, and the harvests were quite good.  And every month they send people to the west of Langu County to carry coal and sell it to Taiyuan Prefecture.  I just want to accumulate a fortune, retire from work, return to my hometown in Fengzhou, and live a leisurely life.  Suddenly there was a police officer in Yun Nei, and the situation was reduced to a pot of porridge.  The commander of the distant branch with the surname Zhe was confused at first, but later became anxious and sent numerous military intelligence documents to Zhe Ke for help.  I just hope to strengthen the security here and mobilize elite soldiers and generals.  Or simply get rid of him as an uncontrollable person and accept even a penny of his retirement salary.  Who would have thought that after the documents were sent out, no soldiers arrived for such a long time.  There were only some official approvals asking him to prepare for war.  Later, I heard that Zhe Keqiu took the elite members of the Zhe family to the west.  The commander immediately wanted to abandon his post and abscond.  Later, the refugees who dispersed from Yunnei brought news that the Jurchen army chased King Yan's army and horses there and rushed towards the Ninghua Army and Yanmen Pass.  I¡¯m afraid I won¡¯t be able to get here for a while.  And the commander was reluctant to part with the next batch of autumn grain, but he just had a bad heart.  If the Jurchen Tatars do not come, they will collect the grain and sell it before leaving.  If the warning comes that the Jurchen Tatars are coming from the west, the straight mother-in-law and thieves will leave.  No matter how hard it is, I won't take this moment to heart.  Why should he, an unlucky guy, die here?  Day by day, I passed by in fear.  Near Ningyuan Village to the west of Kelan Mountain, everything is still calm.  The commander was suffering.  Every night, it is always difficult to sleep peacefully. I have to drink the wine brewed in the village until almost dawn before I can fall asleep.  It was like this again that night. The commander just served food and wine in the warm room. Two rough-handed mountain village women who kept dozing off took turns serving the hot wine. The commander drank and muttered Buddhist chants, and from time to time  Walking out the door and looking at the dark sky to the north.  Just sighing.  "Grandpa Tatar, don't come here!" But at night like this, a Jurchen army still crossed the Kelan Mountain and headed here.  It is the army that Yin Shu can lead.  While the Jurchen brigade's troops were still testing the pass guarded by Han Yue's troops, Yin Shuke had already led thousands of miscellaneous light cavalry, with two horses and two horses, and packed food for seven days. They crossed the Kelan Mountain and attacked here.  !  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  The crescent moon hangs high in the sky.  From time to time, floating clouds pass by, reflecting the mountains and rivers east of the river hazily under the moonlight.  Even with all my eyesight, it was difficult to see a few feet away under such weak moonlight.  Yin Shu can go into battle in person, wearing only leather armor and no hood, leaving his arms bare for easier fighting.  He took one or two hundred elites selected from the miscellaneous Qingqi, along the mountain road, and silently moved towards the main Ningyuan stronghold overhead.  Even though a lot of it has been abandoned, the military strongholds set up on the edge of the Song Dynasty are still strong and tall.  There are huge crossbow machines placed on the walls of the village.  Although the mountain road here can barely pass the troops and horses, it is still very difficult to deploy the equipment to attack the stronghold. ???????????????? If in the heyday of Ningyuan Village, it would be a dream to open this place with such a light horse relying on silver skills alone.  Even if we can barely get around it with light cavalry, it¡¯s nothing more thanIt plays the role of harassment and robbery.  Far from being able to talk about a large army breaking through the border and destroying the entire border defense system.  Even a few decades ago, the marginal archers were scattered due to abuse and exploitation by successive village masters, and there was a huge shortage of military horses.  This commander needs to calm down and defend it well, it is not something that these miscellaneous Qingqi can chew through with silver skills.  Attacking cities by barbarians in the north has always been a difficult task, and the Jurchens were not much better off inheriting the Liao family's property.  Not to mention the Mongolian tribes that are still scattered and poorly equipped.  Silver skills can come here, but because of their lightness, they have nothing except horses, weapons, light armor, and some food.  If Kelan Prefecture had basic defenses on the front line, Yin Shu would have been prepared to be killed here.  Further to the west, Fengfu and Yanzhou are even more difficult to defeat. Turning back to the east, Han Yue's troops are even more difficult to attack. They have suffered all the humiliation. Could it be that they have been sheltered by the same Wanyan Loushi for the rest of their lives?  In the darkness of the night, Yin Shuke could only hear the sound of his own heartbeat, and his ugly face twisted unconsciously.  I just prayed that Ningyuan¡¯s main village, with the light of torches flashing above its head, wouldn¡¯t react.  "But on the wall of Ningyuan's main village, it was always quiet and quiet.  Not even the patrolling figure could be seen.  Is it possible to easily defeat such an important military stronghold like this?  For a moment, even Yin Shu, who was about to be killed here, couldn't believe it.  Although Zong Han has always said that the Southerners are weak, Zong Han even said that the Southerners' troops and horses were weak. Most of the Liao captives looked down upon the Southerners' troops and horses.  However, Yin Shuke has been dealing with southern troops and horses many times, and has been defeated every time.  Although he still had the determination to win decisively, he unconsciously raised the Southern troops and horses to a very high position.  Even if not every southern army is a strong army that can run thousands of miles and win decisively in the wild.  Isn't it possible that in such a critical place, he is completely unprepared? ????????????????? Can the southerners¡¯ troops and horses really be so different from each other?  ¡°Could it be that what those Liao prisoners said was true?  I just have bad luck. How many times have I bumped into the killer star among the southerners? ?? Straight bitch!  Amid the chaos in his mind, Yin Shuke's movements were quieter and more cautious, almost moving upwards.  Time passed little by little, and Yin Shuke had already touched the wall of Ningyuan Village.  There was still no movement on the wall, and faint snoring could even be heard.  At this time, Yin Shuke felt that he was sweating through his heavy clothes, and his whole body was cold when the mountain wind blew.  Only my heart is burning!  Behind him, the miscellaneous Hu Qingqi followed them and followed them after all the hard work.  Everyone held a stone in their mouths and did not dare to make any sound.  At this time, I could see that I had already touched the wall of the village.  Although these bastards are tough, they are not a strong army with strict restraint after all.  Many people began to commotion with excitement, vying to push their way to the front, take the lead in charging into the village, killing and looting fiercely.  Such movement seemed to have finally disturbed the top of the village wall.  A trembling voice sounded: "Xiao Yi, hold up the fire and shine a light, what's going on below?" Yin Shuke waved his hands desperately, and immediately a dozen miscellaneous people rushed up and set up a ladder under the wall of the village.  There were also Zahu, who opened his horn bow and raised it towards the village wall. The noise he made just now was completely ignored at this moment.  Seeing Zahu build a ladder three people high, Yin Shuke held the knife in his mouth and struggled to climb up.  At this time, a soldier held a torch and stuck his head out.  Under the firelight, a ferocious and ugly face appeared in front of him, and then a cold light flashed, and the soldier's throat was immediately cut open!  Blood splattered, and the soldier pressed his throat and fell to the ground with a face full of panic.  Yin Shuke turned over and looked around with a knife in his hand. He saw a straw factory shanty built on the wall of the village. An old soldier who was at least fifty years old was huddled inside. He looked at everything in front of him in panic and was too scared to say a word.  come out!  But the buildings in Ningyuan¡¯s main village in front of them are still quiet.  No one knew that the barbarians from the north had already killed them on the wall of the village!  Yin Shuke stepped forward and pierced the chest of the old soldier who was so frightened that he was paralyzed and couldn't scream or escape.  The old army grabbed the handle of the knife convulsively, trembling violently, and only made a half-snort. Yin Shu Ke violently stirred the long knife, and the old army took a long breath and stopped moving.  Having killed two people, Yin Shuke's bloodthirsty heart became even stronger.  Turning his head and looking south, the mountains, rivers and land of the south in the darkness seemed to be open to him unpreparedly!  Countless miscellaneous beards are covering the wall of the village with red eyes.  Yin Shu Ke drew his sword and drained the blood, and shouted: "Let go and kill!" In the firelight that was still flashing on the wall of the village, he saw these bastards wearing dirty armor and wearing hair ropes, suddenly burst out with beast roars  The sound of general shouting spread over the wall of the village and jumped into the village.  At this time, screams of exclamation rang out in the military camp!  (To be continued) PS: I didn¡¯t sleep well today and got up late.  I have to talk to a guide in the evening??Talk about something.  So that¡¯s it, I¡¯m really sorry.  I'll see if I can make up for it tomorrow.
