After saying that, Old Ganto took the things on the table and entered the back door. After a while, he came back, took two sets of military uniforms and said, "You can change it right away, I'll send someone to send you there."

After saying that, he went out again. Leng Yi and Xiao Zhou Hou changed their military uniforms. The old Gan Tou looked so vicious. He gave Xiao Zhou Hou and Leng Yi's military uniforms more suitable. After they changed their clothes, Lao Gan Tou took them outside the back door, and several more soldiers were waiting there. Lao Gan Tou handed a letter to Leng Yi, asking him to catch up with the guards and handed the letter to the generals.

Leng Yi and Xiao Zhou Hou rode their horses and followed the soldiers north. They traveled day and night, and finally caught up with the Song army who were escorting the smuggling arms on the evening of the third day.

Seeing the escorted army, Leng Yi couldn't help but feel heartbroken. The soldiers escorted by the Song Dynasty were all armed by orthodox soldiers of the Song Dynasty. Moreover, these soldiers were all strong and were obviously not ordinary soldiers. Obviously, they were not the local wing army in Qinzhou, but the elite imperial guards of the Song army!

Because most of the imperial guards are on the Jinmingchi construction site, this imperial guard with thousands of people should be the elite soldiers of the imperial guards in front of the palace among the elite imperial guards!

On this border, thousands of miles apart, how could there be such an elite imperial guards in the front guard department? You should know that the imperial guards were basically stationed near the capital. Some of them were stationed on the border with the Liao Kingdom, because the Xixia did not really establish a country at that time, but it was just surrendered to a separatist force of the Song Dynasty and the Liao Kingdom. There was no direct war with the Song Dynasty, and it was not even considered hostile. Therefore, in order to concentrate its efforts to deal with the Liao Kingdom, the Song army did not deploy elite imperial guards here in Xixia.

Then, this elite soldier must have come from the capital!

After Leng Yi left, the commander of the imperial guards in the capital was Shi Baoji's father Shi Shouxin!

Without Shi Shouxin's nodding, it would be impossible to mobilize such an imperial guard to the northwest border!

Leng Yi felt that there was a feeling that a storm was about to come.

However, he remained calm and followed the soldiers who led the way into the barracks, found a Dutou, and introduced Leng Yi. Leng Yi took out the letter from Old Gan Tou and gave it to Dutou. Dutou had read it and nodded, but said nothing. He asked Leng Yi and Xiao Zhou Hou to work in their tents.

I had nothing to say all night, the next day, I set up camp and continued to travel north.

Their army also had two or three hundred vehicles, which were escorted, and from the ruts, they were all very heavy. It must be because they were loaded with heavy metal and weapons.

As we headed north, the closer we got to the border, the more inspection levels we encountered. However, facing an elite imperial guard like them, these wing troops on the border did not dare to ask more questions, and even dared to look at the carriage they escorted. So we let them go all the way.

On this day, they finally arrived at a pass called Wangyue Mountain on the border.

This is a pass on the border between the Song Dynasty and Xixia, in a valley among the mountains. The official roads leading to both sides pass through the valleys, and the slope of the peaks on both sides is still relatively steep. There are not many trees on the mountain, basically grass slopes and some rocks.

Lao Gantou introduced that the people he joined were all the defenders of the army. He was responsible for the food and supplies for the army. When he arrived at this mountain pass, he stopped.

Leng Yi had already inquired about the veteran and learned that he had almost arrived at the border. After finding that the team had stopped, he pulled Xiao Zhouhou and walked forward along the team, touching the wheels.

They were all wearing military uniforms, and when they arrived, the soldiers seemed relieved and lazy. Therefore, no one cared about them.

They soon arrived in front of the team and saw a group of soldiers opposite each other from afar, talking to the soldiers of the Song Dynasty. There was also a convoy behind the soldiers, stretching across the mountain pass.

Seeing the other soldier, Xiao Zhouhou suddenly exclaimed.

Leng Yi whispered: "What's wrong?"

"The soldiers on the other side are not from Xixia! But from Liao!"

"Ah?" Although Leng Yi had already expected that this batch of weapons and metals might be transported to the Great Liao Dynasty, he did not expect that it was the soldiers of the Liao Kingdom who came directly to accept it! That is to say, even if the Western Xia Dynasty did not make the move, it was directly taken away by the Liao Kingdom.

Leng Yi whispered: "Are you sure?"

Xiao Zhouhou nodded: "In the past, the envoys of the Liao Kingdom came, and the late emperor was very happy. He once asked the accompanying guards of the Liao Kingdom to compete with the guards in front of the Imperial Guards to test archery and riding skills. At that time, many princes and ministers were invited to observe, and we were also invited to our husbands and wife, so I have seen the costumes of Liao soldiers. It is absolutely true!"

Leng Yi stared at the distance, nodded slowly, and suddenly said that he had a stomachache. Queen Xiao Zhou also said that the two of them went down the roadbed and got into the grass. They raised their waists and then covered the bushes and left the road. They came to the halfway up Wangyue Mountain.

Wangyue Mountain is not high. From the middle of the mountain, you can see the situation of both sides below. Leng Yi looked carefully and saw that one of them was Shi Shouxin's son Shi Baoji, the son-in-law of the dynasty! But the other two were not recognized. However, judging from their familiar appearance with Shi Baoji, they should not be ordinary people.

Leng Yi took out the fireworks in his arms and shot into the sky. A red firework bloomed in the air, colorful and dazzling.

At this moment, everyone was shocked and their eyes were turned to Wangyue Mountain.

Everyone who was handing over the things from both sides with the generals who came to the Liao Kingdom at the pass were surprised. Shi Baoji drew out his long sword and said, "This is a contact signal! Our whereabouts must have been discovered."

The Liao general waved his hand and said, "Don't panic. We have many people, and there seems to be only one person on the mountain. If you don't help, you can retreat into the territory of Xixia. Can your soldiers from the Song Dynasty chase into Xixia and arrest you?"

Wei Xianxin next to him looked confident and said, "Brother Shi, don't worry, we have arranged everything, there will be no trouble."

Shi Baoji thought about it, and was shocked, waved his sword and said, "Enclose the hill and catch the bastard on the mountain! I want to see who it is!"

The soldiers quickly set out and surrounded the hill. They rushed up shouting, but after searching the entire hill, no one was found.

After hearing the soldiers' report, Shi Baoji looked at Wei Xianxin: "What's going on?"

Wei Xianxin's younger brother Wei Xianyong said: "Maybe it was fireworks set by local people or children. Since there was no enemy, there was no need to worry. Exchange things quickly and leave each one!"

Generals and officials from Xixia and Liao also nodded in agreement.

Shi Baoji waved his hand: "Turn the carriage through the pass!"

The soldiers agreed, waved their whips and drove the carriage forward.

Unexpectedly, after walking a few steps, I heard the clanging sound, and half of the carriage box fell, and everything on it slid down. It was spread all over the floor. Sure enough, there were metals such as gold, silver, copper, iron, and a large number of weapons, among which there were dozens of boxes of serial magic crossbows newly invented by the Song army!

This kind of crossbow can be used in five crossbows, which can be used in a single person. If you use a special crossbow arrow, the accuracy is quite high. If you use an ordinary arrow shaft, although the accuracy is reduced, it can form a powerful rain of arrow suppression on a large scale. When the two armies face off, the power is still amazing. Unexpectedly, the Song army has not yet equipped a large-scale weapon, and a large amount of finished equipment has been transported to the hostile Liao army!

Shi Baoji and others stared at the fallen carriages in amazement. They were very surprised and said angrily: "What's going on?"

A general ran up to report: "General, somehow, the wheels on one side of the carriage collapsed, so the carriage fell."

Shi Baoji rode his horse over, arrived in front of a carriage, turned over and dismounted, and checked the wheel. The support on the wheel was broken. As the wheel rolled, the pressure was uneven, and it collapsed.

"What did you do? The wheels are broken now, so why are you doing it?" Shi Baoji pointed at the soldiers and cursed angrily.

The Liao general came over, looked carefully at the damaged wheels, and said in a deep voice: "No, this was deliberately destroyed by someone!"

"What? Deliberate destruction?" Shi Baoji stared at the Liao general.

The general of Liao Kingdom pointed to the broken wheel support shaft on the wheel and said, "General, please see, this is broken into a hidden injury. It cannot be seen from the outside. As long as the wheel moves and the force is uneven, it will collapse! Those who destroy the wheel have very high martial arts skills! They are bold and meticulous and should not be underestimated!"

"Find it out! Took this guy out!" Shi Baoji roared.

The average Xixia general stroked his beard and pondered: "Maybe, he is the one who sets fireworks on the hill!"

"That's right! It must be him, search! Be sure to search him!"

The general of Liao Kingdom shook his head and said sinisterly: "No! If he targeted us and destroying the wheels was to prevent us from transporting things away, then as long as we exchange things, he would inevitably appear. No need to look for it!"

Wei Xianxin also said: "This statement makes sense! Change it quickly!"

Wei Xianyong said: "How to change it? The wheels of these 100 carriages are almost broken!"

The general of Xixia said, "This is easy to deal with. Let the soldiers carry the things through the pass and put them on our Xixia side and guard them by our soldiers. Even if the Song army arrives, they will not do anything to us. Just drive the carriage away directly. On that side, we will find another carriage to replace the damaged wheels and then transport the things away."

"Very good, just do it!" Shi Baoji stood in the carriage and shouted: "Hurry! All soldiers, just carry the things to the Xixia Pass and put them on the other side of the Pass. Hurry!"

The soldiers carried boxes one by one and walked towards the Xixia side of the pass.

However, they had just walked to the front of the team, and several sharp arrows suddenly shot out from the grass on the road. Several soldiers walking in front were shot in arrows in their chests and fell to the ground to die!

"There are assassins!" The soldiers were strictly trained and immediately threw down the box on their shoulders, lay on the ground, and observed nervously. At the same time, the other soldiers drew their swords, and some soldiers shot arrows into the grass. But there was no movement.

Shi Baoji shouted, "Roar up and catch the alive!"

The soldiers rushed over with weapons and shouted, searching, but found no one. (To be continued...)
