Xiao Pidi suddenly felt that talking about war with the black khan king Yusufu was definitely a stupid act that could no longer be stupid.
Xiao Pidi resolutely gave up talking about the war with the Black Khan King Yusufu. A smile was squeezed out of his face, and he said: "Khan King's iron cavalry is naturally invincible. There are few soldiers and horses in the world that can directly compete with Khan King's iron cavalry."
"Ah… "
Xiao Pidi originally thought that the King of Black Khan Yusufu would feel comfortable when he heard his flattering words, but he didn't expect that King Yusufu of the Black Khan would only smile with sarcasm.
Xiao Pidi looked suspiciously at the Black Khan King Yusufu.
Black Khan King Yusufu said deeply: "There are... there are many... in the West..."
Xiao Pidi was stunned for a moment, ready to ask questions.
But Yusufu, the king of the Black Khan, didn't seem to have any intention of continuing to chat with him.
When the Black Khan King Yusufu was about to open his mouth, he shouted, "Contain the corpses of the brothers and send them to the embrace of the true God! We are the servants of the true God, and we are invincible!"
"Hohohoho..."
The black sweat soldiers not far from the black sweat king Yusufu roared like wild beasts.
Then, roars swept the entire battlefield.
Xiao Pidi glanced deeply at the Black Khan King Yusufu, and also at the Black Khan Soldier.
The Black Khan Soldier suffered a serious injury just now, and the morale of the Black Khan Soldier was somewhat low, but after the Black Khan King Yusufu moved out the True God, the morale of the Black Khan Soldier began to quickly recover.
The soldiers controlled by religion and belief are really different.
It is necessary to remind Your Majesty in the future to prevent religion from coming into contact with the power of Liao.
The Black Khan King Yusufu didn't care about Xiao Bienei's mood. He ordered the people to converge the corpses of the Black Khan soldiers on the battlefield, and ordered the Black Khan soldiers to burn the dead bodies of the Zhenxi Army and Xizhou Uighurs.
The fire that burned the corpses lasted for a day, and the flames in the forest also lasted for a day.
Black Khan King Yusufu previously threatened that if Chong Shiheng wanted to retire, he would have to get his consent.
But when Chong Shiheng led his troops to retreat, he could only stare at it.
Before the burning forest of fire was completely extinguished, it was difficult for the black sweat cavalry to cross.
After the flames in the forest went out, the Black Khan King Yusufu dispatched some slaves confiscated from Xizhou Huihu to dig soil and pave a road in the forest.
Then he led his soldiers and horses and walked that road into the territory of Shazhou.
The neatly cultivated acres, neat woodland, and the different style houses on the edge of the woodland by the people of Shazhou all attracted the attention of the black khan king Yu Sufu.
Black Khan King Yusufu led a large army to walk through the fields, and said sincerely: "This is a place where the light of the true god has never shined. As the messenger of the true god, Ben Khan should let them be bathed in the light of the true god."
"The foreign minister thinks that King Khan should go to the city first to see if the Song people have left you enough food."
Xiao Pidi couldn't help but reminded him.
The King of Black Khan Yusufu only paid attention to the fields, woodlands, and houses that were different from those in the West, but did not pay attention to the fact that there was no food for people and horses in Shazhou.
The Song people are clearly standing on the wall and clearing the land.
This is one of their usual tactics against the Xixia people and against the Liao people.
Such a tactic has little effect on today's Daliao.
However, it is very deadly to the black sweat soldiers who are fighting against Israel.
Black Khan King Yusufu seemed to see this under the reminder of Xiao Pidi. He frowned slightly and led the soldiers and horses to Shazhou City.
Shazhou City is prosperous.
Although it did not take long to rebuild Shazhou City, Shazhou City was a major commercial place for the Song Dynasty to communicate with all parts of the Western Regions.
The merchants of the Great Song Dynasty, the merchants of the Western Regions, and the small tribes and horse bandits who flew around in the Western Regions will all rush to Shazhou City to complete the delivery of huge transactions.
Some businessmen even settled here.
Driven by the merchants, Shazhou City developed to a very prosperous stage in just a few years.
In the eyes of most people in the Western Regions, Shazhou City is almost a paradise on earth.
The reason why it appears almost is because of the city lord of Shazhou city.
The black-hearted City Lord of Shazhou City is not very friendly to the merchants of the Western Regions. When the merchants enter the city, he always has to charge high business taxes.
If the city owner of Shazhou City is replaced by someone who is kinder to the merchants of the Western Regions, then Shazhou City is a real paradise on earth in the eyes of the Western Regions.
However, there is no one in this city, known as the paradise on earth, in the Western Regions.
There is no trace of living creatures either.
The black sweat king Yu Sufu's face was slightly gloomy, and he told the black sweat soldiers behind him, "Go, and catch the people who are still alive inside to Ben Khan."
The Black Khan soldiers rushed into Shazhou City on their horses, and after a lap inside, they returned to the front of the Black Khan King Yu Sufu.
"Honorable King Khan, there is nothing in it..."
"Food..."
"Without food, all houses are empty."
"Breathe… "
The Black Khan King Yusufu took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and said in a deep voice: "Continue to search, search the entire Shazhou area, and send someone to Benhan to track down the movements of the Song people."
Hearing the words, the black sweat soldier beat his chest and saluted, and then began to search.
Black Khan King Yusufu stared at the empty Shazhou City and said coldly: "Since the Song people do not want to let Ben Khan stay in one city for a long time, then Ben Khan will go to the next city of Song Kingdom."
Xiao Pidi hesitated for a while, and said in a deep voice, "The next city is not easy to fight."
Black Khan King Yu Sufu frowned and looked at Xiao Pidi.
Xiao Pidi said frankly: "The next city is Guazhou City. The terrain in Guazhou is very complicated. There are mountains, rivers, and countless ditches. It is not conducive to cavalry operations."
Black Khan King Yusufu stared at Xiao Pidi and said, "Isn't there still your Liao soldiers?"
Xiao Bidi was taken aback.
The Black Khan King Yusufu asked, "Is it possible that when Ben Khan encounters difficulties, your Liao soldiers don't plan to help?"
Xiao Pidi hesitated for a while and said: "I Daliao and Hei Khan are now allies. Hei Khan has encountered difficulties, and I Daliao will naturally help."
Black Khan King Yusufu nodded and said, "That's it. Once Ben Khan's soldiers and horses are frustrated, your Liao soldiers will be on top. Your 100,000 Liao soldiers can't beat 50,000 Song soldiers, right?"
Suddenly Xiao Pidi felt like he was calculated by the Black Khan King Yusufu. Faced with such doubts by the Black Khan King Yusufu, Xiao Pidi could only bite the bullet and said, "Natural energy."
Black Khan King Yusufu smiled indifferently, "Then we will rectify one day, and the soldiers will be sent to Guazhou tomorrow."
After a pause, the Black Khan King Yusufu added, "Before this, we should send people back to the Xizhou Uighurs to search for all the food in the Xizhou Uighurs."
Xiao Bidi nodded in agreement.
While the Black Khan King Yu Sufu and Xiao Pidi were resting in Shazhou City, Chong Shiheng had already taken the people back to Guazhou.
After a short rest, Chong Shiheng immediately began to line up troops according to the terrain of Guazhou.
Although the imperial court gave Chong Shiheng the military order, if necessary, he could retreat to Yumen Pass and Yang Pass, and use Xiong Pass to resist the enemy.
But Zhong Shiheng felt that he could play a game in Guazhou.
The terrain of Guazhou is very complicated, which is not conducive to cavalry charge.
It is difficult for the cavalry of the Black Khan Dynasty to give full play to their huge advantages in Guazhou.
It is also difficult to form the momentum of a charge like a flood.
Zhong Shiheng can take advantage of Guazhou's favorable terrain to give the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty a blow.
As for the defeat of the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty, Zhong Shiheng had never thought about it.
He now has less than 50,000 soldiers and horses, plus 30,000 local soldiers.
It is impossible to fight the enemy's nearly 800,000 soldiers and horses.
He did not expect to win by surprise, with a record of nearly 80,000 and nearly 800,000.
He leads soldiers like to win in stability.
Since the court gave him the order to retreat, he didn't need to take risks.
In comparison, Di Qing prefers to win by surprise.
When attacking Tengchong Mansion in Dali, Di Qing personally led a squad to attack a barracks in Tengchong Mansion, opening the door for the army to enter Tengchong Mansion.
Just when Chong Shiheng was making arrangements in Guazhou.
Kou Ji has arrived in Xining Prefecture.
After eating a potluck at the prefectural government of Xining Prefecture, Kou Ji led the people into Qingtang territory across the horse.
Not long after Kou Ji straddled his horse into Qingtang, the news of his entry into Qingtang had already been delivered to Jiao Si Luo's desk.
After learning that Kou Ji had entered Qingtang, Jiao Siluo decisively ordered An Ziluo to lead his troops to meet him.
So soon after Kou Ji entered Qingtang, An Ziluo led his troops to appear in front of Kou Ji.
Seeing each other again, the two have changed a lot.
The elegant aura of An Ziluo disappeared, and was replaced by a rough aura.
An Ziluo had a beard, still a big beard.
The voice of speaking is a lot thicker.
"Brother An!"
Kou Ji rode his horse to An Ziluo with a polite greeting on his face.
An Ziluo replied in a serious manner, "Kou Shu is very polite. My king has prepared a banquet in Qingtang City. Please ask Kou to visit Qingtang City for a briefing."
Kou Ji sighed after hearing the words.
Rusty
Kou Ji nodded and rode forward.
An Ziluo followed Kou Ji with his soldiers and horses.
Kou Ji sighed and said, "Brother An is blaming me?"
An Ziluo said calmly: "How dare..."
Kou Ji shook his head and said, "It's not that I can't save it, but that I can't save it."
An Ziluo said indifferently, "The emperor's order personally, Kou Shimi naturally did not dare to violate it."
An Ziluo made it clear that he didn't intend to be commensurate with the Kou Ji brothers.
Kou Ji also didn't bother to stick to his cold buttocks with a hot face.
As Kou Ji rode his horse forward, he said casually: "Does Liao State send envoys to Qingtang?"
An Ziluo groaned for a while and nodded faintly.
Kou Ji said with emotion: "The Black Khan Dynasty and the Liao Kingdom brought a million troops to attack my Da Song. The situation of my Da Song can be said to be precarious. If Qingtang takes the opportunity to make a move, it will indeed get a share.
Kou Ji stared at An Ziluo with a smile: "This is a great opportunity for you Qingtang. Once my Song Dynasty blocks the coalition forces of the Black Khan Dynasty and the Liao Kingdom, Qingtang will have no chance."
An Ziluo glanced at Kou Ji and said nothing.
Kou Ji pondered for a while, and didn't speak any more.
The two rode their horses and rushed to Qingtang City in a starry night.
Just when Kou Ji entered Qingtang City.
The Black Khan King Yu Sufu and Xiao Pidi, led nearly 800,000 soldiers and horses, arrived at the border of Guazhou.
Nearly 800,000 soldiers and horses in the border area of Guazhou, a crowd of black and heavy people, looks really terrifying.
It's just the soldiers and horses in Guazhou, and no one is afraid of them.
Because there is a big river in front of them.
They need to cross the river to enter the territory of Guazhou.
On the other side of the river, the artillery and musketeers of the western army in the town were already standing by, waiting for them to cross the river.
Crossing the river became the biggest problem for the Black Khan and Liao soldiers to enter Guazhou.
After carefully observing the layout of the western army on the opposite side, Xiao Pidi said to the Black Khan King Yusufu: "Khan King, we should divide our troops into three groups..."
The Zhenxi Army ran into the enemy with firearms by the river, reminding Xiao Bidi of the battle against the Yellow River by Xiao Xiaomu, King Yan of Liao.
In that battle, Da Song relied on a small number of soldiers and horses and firearms to beat the Liao army led by Yan Wang Xiao Xiaomu.
It was also in that battle that the Song Dynasty reversed the entire battle in the northwest of the Song Dynasty.
The results of the battle not only affected the battles between the Song Dynasty and the Liao Kingdom at Yanmen Pass and Tongtai Pass, but also affected the battles between the Song Dynasty and Xixia.
It can be said that that battle played a vital role in the entire battle.
Now, Song Da Song has once again attacked the river and responded to the enemy with firearms.
Xiao Pidi felt that he had to admonish the Black Khan King Yusufu to divide his forces.
The number of soldiers and horses in the Hexi area of the Song State was limited, with only 50,000 soldiers and horses in the west, and some local soldiers and horses with weak combat effectiveness.
Hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses and the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of the Song State smashed in one place.
Not only a waste of troops, but also a waste of time.
More importantly, once someone seizes the opportunity, take advantage of the terrain and give them a head-on attack.
The soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty are likely to withdraw from the battlefield.
At present, Daliao's soldiers and horses have not moved south, and they have not yet formed a north-south attack with the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty.
Therefore, the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty cannot withdraw from the battlefield.
Black Khan King Yusufu heard Xiao Bidi once again raised the division of troops, his brows curled up.
"Divide the troops? After the division, the combat effectiveness of my black sweat cavalry will be greatly reduced."
Xiao Pidi said in a deep voice: "Now the soldiers and horses in the Hexi territory of Song State are all in Guazhou, from Shazhou to Yangguan. There are no heavy troops stationed, so it can be said that they are unimpeded.
If King Khan dispatched a cavalry to fight along the road from Shazhou to Yangguan, he would soon reach Yangguan.
If it can occupy Yangguan, the door for the black sweat to enter the Song Dynasty will be completely opened.
At that time, King Khan could meet the Song soldiers in Guazhou from time to time and enter the Song Dynasty. "
Black Khan King Yusufu frowned and did not speak.
Xiao Bidi persuaded him again, "Khan King has nearly 700,000 cavalry under his hand, and 50,000 to 60 thousand cavalry are dispatched, which will not have as much impact on the combat effectiveness of Khan King's soldiers and horses.
If the soldiers and horses sent out by King Khan can occupy Yangguan.
It can not only open the door to the rich land of Song Dynasty for King Khan, but also help King Khan grab a lot of property and food.
In the land of Hexi, there was a big granary in Song Dynasty.
Behind Yangguan, there are millions of acres of fertile land in Suzhou, Ganzhou, Xiliang City and other places.
Where are the food stored up to tens of millions.
More importantly, all the soldiers and horses in Hexi are now stationed in Guazhou.
King Khan divided his troops out, as if he had entered the land of no one.
You can plunder as much as you like. "
Black Khan King Yusufu was moved when he heard this.
Because he needs food now, his soldiers and horses also need food.
The soldiers and horses who went to the Uighurs in Xizhou to search for food are still on the road. Before they can deliver the food, the king of the Black Khan Yusufu needs to solve the problem of lack of food in the army by himself.
The Black Khan soldiers went on the expedition, but they didn't carry any baggage.
So everything they need must be captured from the enemy.
Prior to this, Zhong Shiheng evacuated all the food in Shazhou, making the black khan king Yusufu feel a sense of crisis.
Now he needs enough food to eliminate his sense of crisis.
As Xiao Pidi said, 50,000 or 60,000 cavalry is really nothing to him.
Black Khan King Yusufu said in deep thought: "It is feasible to send out 50,000 to 60,000 soldiers and horses to attack Yangguan, but it can’t be all my Black Khan cavalry. You Liao soldiers need 10,000 people, and Ben Khan is sending 20,000 Black Khan soldiers. And 20,000 slave soldiers from the Uighurs in Xizhou.
Together they formed fifty thousand cavalry to attack Yangguan. "
Xiao Pidi smiled bitterly when he heard this.
Black Khan King Yu Sufu, this must force him to do his best.
Xiao Pidi thought for a moment, nodded and agreed.
If the Black Khan King Yusufu led the soldiers and horses to do it arbitrarily, it might be tricked by the Song army.
He sent troops and horses to intervene one or two times, and there may be unexpected gains.
His mission is very simple, that is, when the Liao Emperor led a heavy army to go south, let the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty disrupt the entire Hexi and attract enough soldiers and horses of the Song State.
It would be better to bring Qingtang people into the game.
Seeing that Xiao Pidi had agreed to this matter, the Black Khan King Yusufu immediately sent people to dispatch troops and horses.
Not long after, a cavalry of 50,000 detached from the army and descended along the river, ready to attack Shazhou to Yangguan.
With the 50,000 cavalry leaving, it was natural that he couldn't hide from Chong Shiheng in Guazhou City.
When the scout reported the matter to Chong Shiheng, the corners of Chong Shiheng's mouth twitched for a long time.
Li Di, who provokes him to sit on the side, murmured: "Are you a goat mad?"
Zhong Shiheng rolled his eyes and said, "The Black Khan King Yu Sufu dispatched 50,000 soldiers and horses to Yangguan. It's a wonderful move that can't be better."
Li Di nodded and smiled in agreement: "Yangguan is a good place to bury the bones. It seems that people who attacked Yangguan will have no good end."
Zhong Shiheng smiled and nodded, and asked, "How are the people in Guazhou retreating?"
Li Di laughed in a low voice: "They have already evacuated to Yumen Pass. Before they retreat, the old man also ordered them to cut down all the trees in Guazhou, leaving only a half-foot-high stump."
The half-foot-high tree stump is very restrictive to the cavalry charge.
When the cavalry passed through the area full of tree stumps, they could only slow down.
Zhong Shiheng was taken aback for a moment, and then he laughed, "Li Gong is wise, Li Gong is righteous."
Li Di smiled reluctantly, without speaking.
He personally destroyed all the woodland he had operated for many years, and he was actually very uncomfortable.
But the enemy is currently, he is definitely not a woman.
Chong Shiheng and Li Di didn't worry at all about the war in Yangguan.
They wished that the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty would divide their forces to attack Yangguan, so they had better go more.
On the big river outside Guazhou.
After the Black Khan King Yusufu divided his troops out, he immediately ordered his soldiers and horses to start crossing the river.
The river is not deep, and the deepest point is only to the person's chest.
Therefore, the Black Khan soldiers do not need any rafts or boats.
They just need to wading directly across the river.
The black sweat soldiers encountered rivers and lakes, and most of them went directly.
Because the Black Khan Dynasty is located inland, there are no big rivers in the territory, mostly small rivers, and the currents are not turbulent.
So there is no need to use boats to cross the river.
The black sweat was overwhelmed by the water.
The western army on the other side of the river is naturally not polite.
The artillery and musket fire together.
The war officially started.
Amid the roar of guns, the black sweat soldiers floated up in the river water, becoming a floating corpse on the river water, fluttering to the lower reaches of the river.
Black Khan King Yusufu saw the guns and artillery shooting the Black Khan soldiers, his brows were frowned, and his voice was very heavy: "Before in the border of Shazhou, Ben Khan hadn't felt how powerful the firearms were. Here, Ben Khan has seen the power of firearms.
For pawns, they are the real big killers.
Ben Khan understands a little bit now, why your Liao State can't beat Song State. "
Xiao Pidi just stared at the battle, and did not speak.
There were a lot of black sweat soldiers crossing the river, but none of them climbed ashore.
Dense guns cover the river surface, and it is difficult for the black sweat soldiers to pass through it.
In just a few hours, thousands of black sweat soldiers fell on the river.
Whether it was all dead or seriously injured, no one knew.
Because almost all of them floated on the surface of the river, they floated to the lower reaches of the river.
The following black sweat soldiers, seeing the black sweat soldiers crossing the river in front, none of them successfully crossed the river, all of them were timid and retreated.
When the Black Khan King Yusu saw this, an angry expression flashed in his eyes, but there was no attack, he just ordered the troops to stop.
Today's war comes to an end for the time being.
The Zhenxi Army on the other side of the river cheered after the Black Khan soldiers retreated.
The black sweat soldiers looked like a defeated army, but not long after returning to the barracks, they forgot the defeat and the sorrow, and they began to sing and dance.
When fighting during the day, so many people died, it seems that it has nothing to do with them.
Those people have returned to the embrace of the true god.
It is something to celebrate.
When the black sweat soldiers sang and danced, people mingled among them, constantly telling them that new oracles had appeared in the holy city of Baghdad.
Within the Song Dynasty, there was a divine envoy who was left behind by the true god among the people.
His name is Kou Ji.
In this regard, the Black Khan soldiers did not believe it.
Because none of them has been to Baghdad, nor the Holy City.
Never stayed in the city of the sky full of honey and milk.
The person who quietly promoted Kou Ji as a divine envoy did not give up on this, but spared no effort to tell the matter to more black sweat soldiers.
Because the person responsible for propagating that Kou Ji is an envoy of God understands people's hearts very well.
He knew very well that now these black sweat soldiers didn't believe that Kou Ji was a divine envoy, because there were too few people who knew it.
When all the black sweat soldiers knew that Kou Ji was a divine envoy, that Ko Ji was the real divine envoy in the hearts of the black sweat soldiers.
