He didn't ask anything about his daughter, nor did he mention why her daughter didn't come with him. He went straight to the topic: "King Qin, you came at the right time. Raising troops for a thousand days and using them for a while. I have found out that there is a newly rising force from the Western Regions outside the desert. They are gradually expanding and encroaching on our territory. If we don't take action, I'm afraid they will become powerful... "
This vast barren land was originally ownerless, with remnants of the Liao Kingdom and other remnant forces operating here. However, in recent years, forces outside Xixia have gradually penetrated. They were unable to penetrate into the rising Jin Dynasty, so their eyes naturally turned to this land. The vast land. This is the first obstacle to the rise of Yelu Dayong, and it must be removed quickly.
King Qin said without hesitation: "Hit!"
"beat!"
Yeluda stood up with a wave of his sleeves. His expression at this moment really felt like he was dominating the world. King Qin was secretly frightened. If it weren't for that terrifying appearance, this old ghost would have caused a bloody storm. .
King Qin followed him to the reviewing stand for the first time.
This is an army of less than 20,000 people. Liu Wu and Yelulong continued to cooperate and divided the left and right armies into two armies. The second army was further divided into nine formations. They were based on the riding and archery that the Liao people were best at in the past, and borrowed from the Kaizi horse formation of Dajin. , in order to charge into battle in the vast grasslands and deserts.
"When to set off?"
"tomorrow!"
Yeluda waved his long sleeves, and his body was like a huge bat. King Qin's expression remained unchanged: "I didn't expect that when I came, I would encounter a big battle. It was interesting, very interesting."
"The real fun is yet to come. King Qin, your navy will be put to use soon."
"Oh? Are you going to take Lin'an?"
"King Qin, don't underestimate me. One of your generals, Huo Qubing, once said: Three thousand men in armor can swallow Wu..."
"Okay, I'll just wait for your three thousand armored men to cause chaos in Lin'an, so that I can become a great emperor."
Dusk falls.
Yelu Dayong silently descended from the observation tower, submerged himself into the stone house, and began his necessary practice. King Qin stood alone on it, looking at the traces of pine oil ink in the square tube on the stand.
The desert is solitary and the smoke is straight, and the sun is setting over the long river.
Naturally, he didn't know such a poem, but when he was there and looked around, the flags were waving, and the soldiers were entering the barracks in an orderly manner, leaving only an empty patch of sand, and he couldn't help but feel desolate in his heart.
That damn girl, where are you
Under the stage, Liu Wu's voice came: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
The observation tower was a forbidden area for Yelvda. He did not dare to go up, so he could only ask King Qin to come down.
King Qin took a few steps down, and Liu Wu bowed respectfully: "Your Majesty, why are you here?"
He laughed heartily: "Liu Wu, you are more popular than when I was around you."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your cultivation."
Liu Wu thought of the meeting with Hua Rong and didn't know whether he should mention it. He looked around and saw that this was Yelu's territory. Since King Qin didn't ask, he didn't mention it either.
The camp counting house, the liquor is blazing.
King Qin sat on a very rough wooden chair, raised his wine bag and drank half of it. Liu Wu found that King Qin's personal bodyguard only saw An Zhigang, but not Liu Zhiyong. He had always had a personal relationship with Liu Zhiyong, so he asked: " Where is Liu Zhiyong?”
King Qin said as if nothing had happened: "He has another mission."
Liu Wu didn't ask any more questions and greeted An Zhigang. He saw the strange look in King Qin's eyes and was a little curious. As everyone knows, King Qin has always been wary of the people around Yelu Da, fearing that they would be used by Yelu Da. What kind of poison? He paid attention to Liu Wu's eyes and saw that his eyes were focused and his limbs were in order. He breathed a sigh of relief and laughed dumbly. He thought to himself, if Yelu Dayong wanted to reuse Liu Wu, how could he confuse him? A general who is good at fighting must keep a clear mind and a healthy body. Once he is tempted, he will be ruined.
However, he was still worried after all. He suddenly took Liu Wu's hand and touched an acupuncture point on his left arm. Liu Wu was surprised and immediately understood what he was doing. As soon as his hand was free, he immediately lowered his voice: " Thank you, Your Majesty."
King Qin laughed, but his tone was also very soft, speaking in a fast dialect: "You have to pay attention to everything."
"My subordinates will understand."
"Liu Wu, where does this remaining force belong?"
"They are from the original party, led by General Helian. They have plundered the desert several times and once took away five thousand of our cattle and sheep..."
King Qin listened attentively and asked questions from time to time, detailing everything.
A large plate of beef was served. King Qin picked up a piece and ate it. Liu Wu asked: "My King, do you really want to participate in the war in person?"
"Liu Wu, have you forgotten that I was born in the army? Although I never fought any major battles under the eunuch Tong Guan, I studied the previous battles and terrain maps of Liao and Song Xixia along the way. And that force must not be much stronger. If a tiger doesn't show its power, Old Ghost Yelu thinks I'm a sick cat..." He has experienced many battles, but the most large-scale battle was against Jin Wushu at sea, and he was defeated by Jin Wushu in the middle. He was besieged and in a state of embarrassment. Fortunately, Yue Pengju used his troops like a god and turned defeat into victory. Later, when he witnessed Yue Pengju's large-scale Dongting water battle, there were no large-scale casualties, and Yang Mo's army was disintegrated. Although he did not say anything, he was very impressed. . Water warfare is a weak point, and Yue Pengju is still like this; in large-scale road battles, the battle of Zhuxian Town, just think about it, how embarrassed Jin Wushu would be at that time.
He thought to himself: "This damn girl worships Yue Pengju as a heavenly being. If I don't believe it, I will be useless."
"Liu Wu, immediately summon the army's lieutenant generals for discussion."
"yes."
More than a dozen main generals came in. Liu Wu and Yelulong were seated on the left and right. The King of Qin was in the middle, holding a deer knife in his hand and slashing it on the table in front of him: "Everyone, you can raise an army for a thousand days and use it for a while. I am today I just want to discuss with you the battle with Helian..."
Although everyone did not know who this big man who suddenly came out was, they saw that he was so powerful and majestic. With one strike of his sword, a corner of the thick granite was neatly cracked. Everyone present could not help but look at each other with expressions of surprise.
Liu Wu immediately handed over his hand and said, "But I will obey the king's orders."
Everyone was frightened, and the general in the army was Liu Wu who was the most resourceful. Yelulong was about to hesitate, but when he saw the corner of the granite, he had to hand it over: "But I will listen to the king's orders."
King Qin held his sword and stood up with a calm body: "I have also been thinking about it these days. Take a look..."
These people were all deployed by Yelu Da in the past. Although there were no famous generals or outstanding people, there were a few very shrewd and agile people among them. When they met these subordinates, they realized that King Qin had already done something. After careful preparation, I was secretly frightened.
At the third watch, the vanguard formed an array, and three thousand soldiers and horses hunted with banners.
Yelu Dayong stood on the observation deck and saw King Qin riding on a war horse, holding up the deer-cutting sword that he never left. I will drink with you."
"Kill, kill, kill!" three loud sounds shook the air, and the team set off.
Yelu Dayong was excited and worried at the same time. This was the first battle of an army, and it was related to the rise and fall of great fortune and morale. If he won, it would be a big blow; if he lost, the blow could be imagined. He was only willing to send three thousand King Qin didn't fight much for his troops and horses. Now, he couldn't help but regret it secretly. He planned to add two thousand more to increase his chances of winning. However, when he was about to pursue him, he remembered King Qin's behavior, so he forcibly held back.
The yellow sand rolled over, and a group of sturdy party troops sprang out from the ground like marmots, slashing the horse's legs with their sharp swords.
Liu Wu waved his flag and shouted: "Kill..."
The neat formation of the Kaizi horse camp was like an elephant pressing down on the border. The horses' legs were tied with thin iron chains. A row of swords were waved. On the flanks, Yelu Longxu's infantry rushed out and fought on both sides. Soldiers from the Dangxiang tribe had never seen this before. This kind of fighting method leads to a panic and a hasty retreat.
