Chapter 12 Breakthrough on the tenth day

An error occurred while processing s private files

Early in the morning, Niuhe.

The cold wind roared violently, the mist was hazy, and the soldiers of the resentful army braved the cold and were crossing the glacier.

Dong Zhongsun wrapped a mink fur around his neck and a fox tail around his head, which looked funny. Because it was too cold and the wind was strong, he hid behind the horse's butt, covered his hands, and kept stomping his feet to keep warming himself.

Hu Jiayong suddenly appeared. The evil ghost was sweating heavily, his hair was loose, he was holding a trouser in his hand, and he kept breathing, and the hot air spurted out into white mist.

"Dong Shuai, the bitch whom Yelu Chun is chasing him. His horse army is fast, and we are going to run forward."

"What's the hurry?" Dong Zhongsun shivered constantly, and his speech was a little confused. "You lead a team of horse soldiers to run back and forth along the north road, making the illusion of our northward journey and deceive the Khitans." This Niu River connects with the Daling River. From here, the big road goes north and leads directly to Chengzhou. Another road follows the Daling River eastward and leads to Yizhou. The direction of the resentful army is now to Yizhou. In order to avoid the trap of the Liao army, Dong Zhongsun had to go north along the Daling River first, then turn eastward and go directly to Yizhou.

"The Khitans are not idiots. They don't know how to see both roads? More than 3,000 of us went to Yizhou, how could there be no traces on the road?" Hu Jiayong said angrily.

"Zhi Niang, can you eat with a bird's head?" Dong Zhongsun cursed angrily, "If it's empty, it's real, it's empty. Yelu Chun, the bird man, thinks he's self-righteous. The more obvious the traces you leave, the less he doesn't believe it. He must think we've gone north."

"Really or false?" Hu Jiayong widened his eyes and was skeptical, "What if Yelu Chun was not deceived?"

"Bitches are raised. Where do you have a lot of nonsense? Yelu Chun is anxious to go to Chengzhou, so how can he have the time to check the truth?" Dong Zhongsun cursed angrily, and then asked, "Where is Deputy Envoy Huang? He is still behind?"

"He is crossing the river. He is carrying his baggage. If he wants to walk faster, he has to look at the mood of the livestock. If the livestock is in a bad mood, he will cry if he doesn't leave." Hu Jiayong grinned and gloated.

"You go and urge him and tell him to hurry up. The Liao army chased him tightly and could not lose his baggage. Now we are the ones who are in Yizhou. If we don't have this baggage, we will fart."

When Hu Jiayong heard about the attack on Yizhou, he looked a little worried, "Dong Shuai, it seems that it will snow this day. What should we do if we can't fight?"

"What should I do?" Old Dong rolled his eyes, "Then let's surround him. Wait until the main force comes before fighting."

Ah? It's that simple. Hu Jiayong laughed and gave a thumbs up at Old Dong, "Dong Shuai, Gao, you're good at it."

Old Dong glared at him, "Go and do the business quickly, go and go back early. I began to say."

"Okay." Hu Jiayong agreed and turned around and left.

Dong Zhongsun looked north, and there was a hint of worry between his eyebrows. He didn't know how the Tiger King was doing now? Can he break through successfully? The boy Luo Zhongyuan wouldn't have foolishly defeated the Black Mountain Army, right? The camp also left, and the headquarters began to retreat.

Li Hu stood in front of Luo Zhongyuan's grave, feeling sad.

Little Roland knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times respectfully, "Brother, I'm leaving. When I come back, I will bring the head of the Jurchen to pay tribute to you." As he said that, Little Roland cried again, heartbroken, and cried in a hoarse voice. "Brother. Brother..."

Li Hu helped him up and pulled him slowly on the hills. He walked past new graves.

Wen Yuan, Hu Lei, Lu He, Li Bing... and thousands of soldiers, all of whom were sleeping in the tiger roaring platform, their souls roaring in the wind, seeing off the warriors who set out on their journey.

Li Hu turned over the horse, his iron neighed, and he raised his hooves and was about to move.

Li Hu looked back again, looking at the mountains from afar. The cold wind roared and the forest waves roared. Familiar smiling faces flashed in front of his eyes, and a generous laugh came from his ears, but his heart was filled with heartache.

Li Hu whistled to the sky. Brothers, wait for me to come back.

Tieli hissed and stood upright, and then fell to the ground with his front hooves, whizzing away like clouds and fog. The sky.

Yesterday was shocked and experienced life and death, but before the bad luck had passed, rebels flocked to it. At dawn, the mountains outside the North City and the East City were already full of flags and camps for several miles.

Some generals of the Liao army and officials of the royal palace suggested to Xiao Gan to evacuate as soon as possible. The rebels were hunting for the Jin people. At this moment, they were red-eyed and they were caught and killed. If they were anxious, they would jump over the wall. What's more, people? Retreat first, join the Queen of Yan later, and then siege and kill the rebels.

Xiao Gan refused. This Eastern Expedition involves a lot, especially the dispute over power in the palace tent. The hidden situation is complicated and I cannot say it, and there is no need to say it. The most urgent task is to stick to the support. Once the King of Yan arrives, he will defeat the rebel Li Hu and eliminate internal troubles first. There may be hope for the Eastern Expedition.

While we were looking forward to reinforcements, the defenders on the city reported urgently that the rebels had gone up the mountain and wanted to cross the mountains and ridges and pass around the city.

Xiao Gan immediately became anxious. The rebels passed by the city and headed south, and all their previous efforts were in vain. He hurried to the East City and climbed up to a high place. The mountains in the distance were crowded with people, and the rebels were driving the people to open up mountain roads. There were hundreds of thousands of people following the rebels. If they were excavated day and night, there would be two or three days enough to open a temporary mountain road, and people and animals could pass through it. The rebels would at most just throw away their supplies.

Xiao Gan was anxious, helpless and regretful, but the soldiers in the city breathed a sigh of relief and secretly glad that they wished that the rebels would all cross the mountains overnight, leave Chengzhou, and go south early, but they were only happy for a while, and suddenly the earth-shaking sound of war drums came from the direction of the south city.

The defenders warned that an enemy was coming. Xiao Gan was shocked and rushed to the south city. When he went up the city tower, he looked no more. The rebels were extremely fast, and they actually crossed mountains and ridges and surrounded Tongchang City. They were about to attack from front and back. Xiao Gan was afraid of the rebels' attack, but he was even more afraid of the reinforcements being blocked. Once the reinforcements were blocked, Tongchang City would be difficult to defend under the rebels' attack, because the defenders in the city were already scared and their morale had been beaten by the rebels long ago. As long as the rebels launched an attack, the army would collapse immediately.

The more afraid Xiao Gan is, the faster the bad luck comes.

The rebels outside the city suddenly moved, and their wings separated. Then they walked out of a group of infantrymen, and they walked to a place very close to the city before stopping.

Xiao Gan and the Liao army soldiers took a closer look and found that it was wrong. These infantrymen were tied up, and their armor and clothes were not bribers at all. They were not rebels, but prisoners. When they were confused, the prisoners under the city shouted, "We are the Changning Army of Chuanzhou." Our entire army was wiped out."

Xiao Gan changed his color in shock. The defenders on the city were even more heartbroken.

A team of cavalry came roaring, inserting more than a dozen Changning Army battle flags on the ground, and there was a bloody head on the top of each flagpole.

The captives began to shout again, this was the head of the deputy envoy of the Changning Army, that was the head of the Duke of the Changning Army, the head of the Duke of Yuhou of the Changning Army... One of the Changning Army was wiped out in the Tribulus Mountain, and the Jiedushi died in the battle. Now the other part of the support area from Chuanzhou has been wiped out again. The heads of the senior officers are all here, and the Changning Army is completely finished. Xiao Gan couldn't bear to see it, so he turned around and went downstairs. He originally expected that this army would increase its defensive forces after it arrived, but in the blink of an eye, the entire army was wiped out. Not only that, it also hit the defenders in the city. The defenders in the city had no morale at all. Everyone was in danger, and everyone wanted to retreat and escape. Now, the rebels surrounded the city, and the reinforcements closest to Tongchang City were wiped out by the rebels. The defenders in the city are now more afraid and have no intention of defending the city. They want to escape.

The tenth day of breaking through.

Tribulus Mountain.

The rebel army and more than 400,000 Han people tried their best. They took a day and two nights to evacuate all the personnel, livestock and supplies across the Tribulus Mountain. During this period, they had to clean the battlefield, bury the bones, transport the wounded, and repair the defense facilities. It was very hard, and many people even stayed asleep and were busy day and night.

The General General's Office played an important role in the retreat. The mountain roads were winding and difficult to walk on the road. The army and the people were crowded together, and livestock and carriages carrying various supplies were also crowded together. Without unified command, it would be hard to imagine that they could be fully withdrawn in such a short time, and they were in order and without any chaos.

Li Hu and the general commander-in-chief stayed at the end, which greatly stabilized the morale of the army and made the people feel at ease. As long as the King of Tiger is there and as long as the King of Tiger is behind the Jin army, everyone's lives will be guaranteed.

In the morning, the fifth deputy general Jie Wu urgently reported to the headquarters. The Jin army was dispatched. After a day of rest, they launched another attack, and tens of thousands of troops rushed to Tiger Roaring Platform.

Li Hu ordered Jiewu to retreat, abandon Tiger Roaring Platform, and retreat to Mount Targas.

The Jin army followed and chased after the Liao army rushed from the front again. The rebels must buy time and rush out from the direction of Chengzhou. Otherwise, they will fail. However, the forced attack on the city will be too great, and the rebels will have no troops to be consumed. So Li Hu once again rushed to the general's office and the former commander Mao Jun, and made up his mind to discard the baggage. Except for money, grain and other necessary supplies, all other things must be discarded, and it is necessary to rush out of Chengzhou within two days.

However, the letter had just been sent out, and the Chief Secretary Huang She sent an urgent letter from Tongchang, saying that the people were unwilling to abandon their livestock, and that the livestock was their private property. Even if the knife was placed on their necks, they would not want to lose it. Nearly one million livestock crossed mountains and ridges would have to be too late, but the rebel army had no time. For this reason, Huang She asked Li Hu to rush to Chengzhou and advised the people along the way to give up the livestock and save their lives first.

Li Hu shook his head and smiled bitterly. He made a fool of himself and gave the livestock to the people because he was worried that the livestock would be lost. Now, it is better that when he wants to throw them away, he will be in big trouble.
