Chapter 16 is considered to be an official meeting after adulthood, which is quite late, slow writin
The army is in northern Xinjiang. "
Ming Xiaoyang said: "Then my father was really hit by an arrow?"
Ming Ruiran said: "No, it's just a scratch, Dad did it on purpose."
Ming Xiaoyang was silent for a while, and said with emotion: "Every day, the sun rises and the sun sets, there is nothing unusual about it, but under the calm, it is so dangerous and dark, changing rapidly."
Ming Ruiran said: "Then there is no reason for the years to be quiet. We all know that the emperor is noble, but we don't know his hard work and difficulty."
Ming Xiaoyang said in a deep voice: "Well, as the Son of Heaven, if he wants to purge the imperial court, shake up the turbidity and promote the clean, but also be forced to feign death, risking his life to face the palace change, what if something goes wrong... Isn't it really tragic."
Bai Heyun said: "It seems that the ending is smooth and unimpeded, but the gap between life and death, success and failure, and the survival of the country. The thoughts and efforts of the officials and us are not only It can be fully summarized by being serious. Xiaoyang, can you understand it?"
Ming Xiaoyang nodded solemnly: "Arresting more than a thousand officials in and out of the field overnight, won't it cause turmoil in the court?"
Bai Heyun said: "If a person has no clothes to replace, will he take off his own at will? If his old clothes are torn, he will naturally have to prepare new clothes before he can change the old clothes. Even if this is the case for one person, How about a country?"
Ming Xiaoyang said: "Yes, yes."
In the evening, Ming Xiaoyang sat alone in the study, unusually quiet, thinking: "Whether Zhao Yi becomes the emperor or not, he will be in charge in the future. No wonder he is so depressed that he becomes a monk. He really should think about it. Now There are my father and mother in the official family, as well as some loyal ministers and good generals, but if Zhao Yi is in power in the future, who will help him." Thinking of this, I felt an inexplicable heartache.
Emperor Liao was furious, and yelled in front of all his officials: "What? Ming Ruiran is not dead? The Song emperor is not dead either? The civil strife subsided overnight? My [-] warriors just disappeared for no apparent reason. ? Dare to deceive the king, what should you do!"
Shuai Liao knelt in front of the hall, trembling, not daring to say a word.Emperor Liao yelled: "Drag it for me and put you in prison!"
The guard stepped forward and took Shuai Liao down.
Emperor Liao said: "Damn Hu Hang, my 20 soldiers can't die in vain! Pass my order, and the [-] troops will immediately regroup and attack Song Dynasty!"
When the prince heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward: "No, 20 troops will not be able to destroy Song, and Xia is restless, Ming Ruiran is still here, who is the commander of our army? Absolutely no!"
Cheng Wang said: "Why not, if this cowardice suffers like this for no reason, others will think that our Liao is weak and can be bullied, and it will make them feel offended. The Khitan warriors would rather fight, and Liao's iron cavalry is not just for show. Yes! This king is willing to take command personally!"
The generals all expressed their willingness to join the war and went south to attack the Song Dynasty.
The crown prince said: "Don't be impatient, Prince Cheng, how can you be impulsive when it comes to military affairs?!"
Cheng Wang said: "Then the one hundred thousand soldiers died in vain?"
Emperor Liao shouted: "Okay! Shut up! Alas... 20 troops are calling for battle at the frontier. Let's see who is in charge of the Song Dynasty. If it is Ming Ruiran, then don't act rashly until our army discusses a new method of warfare." If it is someone else, we will first capture a few of his states and give me [-] soldiers to sacrifice their spirits!"
In the early morning, Ming Ruiran and Ming Jue father and son went to the court, Bai Heyun usually went to the palace for business, and did not go to court when there was nothing to do.Since Ming Xiaoyang took over the title, he stood in the early court, and felt that the two Dukes of Wu were really strange. The officials didn't make any adjustments, and the idiot King Qing didn't know how to adjust, so the two Dukes of Wu just went to one. Ming Xiaoyang is at home.
After the recent toss, Bai Heyun's Bai family affairs have piled up quite a lot.Zhao Anchen had "became a monk", and after Ming Xiaoyang had experienced "deceived death by officials" and "death of both parents", his temperament became much calmer, and he worked hard in the study honestly.
Huo Tong is fine, he just practiced in the courtyard, and everything in Duke Wu's mansion is as usual.
"I'm back!" With a yell, Ming Le came back and called Huo Tong: "Huo Tong, help, you also come to help! I bought a lot of delicious and interesting things along the way, and Yangzhou is also very interesting!" happily As he said that, he had no idea that there was a great funeral at home during this period of time.
Huo Tong went over to help, Ming Le asked, "Where are they?"
Huo Tong said: "Mr. Wu and Mr. Jue have gone to court early. The head of the family is in Zhuzhai, and the young master is in the study."
Ming Le smiled and said: "My brother is in the study? Hahaha!" Ming Le skipped and looked at the queen, then went to find Ming Xiaoyang.
"Brother! There are thousand-layer cakes from Yangzhou!" Ming Le entered the study room and put his arms around Ming Xiaoyang's neck.
Ming Xiaoyang said: "Well, let's eat later, Le'er don't make trouble, brother is busy."
Ming Le said: "Are you busy? What are you... what is this?" Ming Le looked down, and saw that there were things he couldn't understand.
Ming Xiaoyang said: "The formation diagram I invented will be ready in a while, you go and sit on the side, don't shake it, I can't even hold my pen steadily."
Ming Le said: "Oh, good! Let me tell you, Sister Shen's father is a strange uncle. He looks very like Mother, even weirder than Mother."
When Ming Xiaoyang heard that it was Shen Xuanqing's strange father, he asked, "How strange?"
Mingle said: "One day, I saw his servant carrying a large wooden tray covered with gold, and said: 'Master, this is from Master Li, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, his grandson is full moon, I hope the master can help He carved a jade pendant and gave it to his grandson as a full moon gift." Then I heard Uncle Shen say: "A small official minister has a lot of handwriting. For the monthly salary of the official minister, where did he get 300 taels of gold. Tell him to take back the dirty money and don't dirty my place.'Brother, do you think the Minister of the Ministry of Officials is a very small official?"
Ming Xiaoyang said: "Although it can't compare with our family, it's not too small, and it's a Beijing official."
Ming Le said: "Who is the Minister of the Ministry of Officials? It seems that he is not a good official."
Ming Xiaoyang said: "The Minister of the Ministry of Officials was sent to prison a few days ago. Now there is probably no Minister of the Ministry of Officials. In a few days, someone will take up his post. I don't know who the new Minister of the Ministry is."
Ming Le said: "Sure enough, it's not a good thing. If there is no official secretary, who will do it?"
Ming Xiaoyang said: "Who knows, probably the subordinates of the Ministry of Officials."
Ming Le said: "Oh, Uncle Shen doesn't seem to take Shang Shu seriously, he is not a simple person."
Ming Xiaoyang smiled and said, "Well, that's true."
Ming Le said: "You know?"
Ming Xiaoyang shook his head: "I don't know."
in the palace.
One day later, the officials called Ming Ruiran to the study to discuss matters: "Ruiran, Liao hasn't retreated yet, what do you think should be done?"
Ming Ruiran said, "I'll go."
The official said: "What do you think of Xiaoyang?"
Ming Ruiran thought for a while: "It's fine, it's still too small, isn't it?"
The official said with a smile: "You were also 16 years old when you went to the battlefield to lead the army. Why don't you think you are young?"
Ming Ruiran said: "Well, that's right, then let Xiaoyang go, there is no need to lead troops there, the northwest border is stable and there is no fighting, I have already asked General Luo to support the northern defenders with the [-] forbidden troops that I sent out the day before yesterday. "
The official said: "Alright, let Xiaoyang get ready to go."
Ming Ruiran said: "Okay."
Early the next morning, Ming Xiaoyang put on the battle robe and silver armor, still carefully hung the unnamed sword on his waist, and took the Yanyue Saber.Mingle was very worried when he saw the silly brother going out, so he stuck his white snake bone whip on Ming Xiaoyang's waist.Ming Xiaoyang took Huotong along and galloped all the way to the northern border.
Ming Ruiran saw that Ming Le was holding a few pieces of paper and was reading them seriously while sitting in Ming Xiaoyang's study, so he went in and asked, "What is Le'er looking at?"
Mingle said: "The talisman I drew, I call it a formation."
Ming Ruiran said: "Well, it's time for you to learn too. Starting tomorrow, I will go to your Brother Jue to teach you."
Ming Le said: "Okay! I'll go now." He ran out happily.
Ming Ruiran picked up these pictures and looked at them, he was shocked, and went to Zhuzhai to find Bai Heyun with the pictures.Bai Heyun smiled slightly: "As expected of your son, he is even better than you. I never thought that our son is a genius. I'm afraid the Liao army will suffer this time."
Ming Ruiran took out one of them: "Xiaoyang discovered that this ten evil formation has the most powerful soldiers, full of murderous aura, and the victory of the formation can devour millions of soldiers, but the main formation of this formation will appear at the end of the battle, and it is the most dangerous , the master general with extremely high martial arts skills is required to enter in person, and the master general will win the battle alive, and the master general will die, and the victory or defeat is hard to say. This is a very risky formation of opening and closing. It is better not to use this formation unless it is a last resort. Soldiers are impermanent, water is impermanent, if there is still a choice, this formation is the worst strategy."
Bai Heyun said: "...According to Xiaoyang's personality, it's not surprising that he can draw this kind of formation. I guess this kind of battle is exactly what he wants to fight the most."
Ming Ruiran became nervous like a child in an instant: "Yun'er, don't scare me. This is not a joke. The battlefield is dangerous. Are you going to cut off the incense of my Ming family? No, I'm going to watch him."
Bai Heyun smiled and said: "Hahaha, you are in a hurry, the officials let you sit in the capital, and you are not allowed to leave without authorization."
Ming Ruiran sat down angrily: "Yun'er is still laughing, and won't give me more children."
Bai Heyun looked at him with great interest: "If you give birth, I will do my best. If you are unwilling, go find someone else to give birth to you while you are in your prime, before it is too late. The Ming family is a general, and if there is someone on the battlefield Sooner or later, it's normal, so I won't blame you. In short, I'm done with Le'er."
Ming Ruiran lowered his eyes and said aggrievedly: "Yun'er don't say that again, I don't."
Bai Heyun thought in his heart: "My husband is still so cute." He got up and walked over, holding the wronged Ming Ruiran and said: "It's okay, even if Xiaoyang is really in danger, he will come back alive. Aren't we all Did you come here like this, you are so nervous when it's your son's turn to make contributions?"
Ming Ruiran worried: "Xiaoyang's newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, I'm worried about his recklessness."
Bai Heyun smiled and said "hmm".
Ming Le learned the art of war in Ming Jue's study for three days, and asked: "Brother Jue, I suddenly thought that my brother and Ning Wang are inseparable on weekdays, why didn't I see Ning Wang when my brother went out to fight?"
Ming Jue said: "Prince Ning has become a monk."
Ming Le asked in surprise: "What? Is it true?"
Mingjue said: "Well, really, it's in Tianqing Temple."
Ming Le threw down the book, got on the horse and went to Tianqing Temple to see Zhao Anchen.
"Brother Ning Wang!" Ming Le entered the meditation room and asked, "Don't you think that Brother Ning is a bit strange these days?"
Seeing Ming Le coming, Zhao Anchen asked, "What's the matter?"
Ming Le said: "Aren't you surprised that my brother didn't bother you?"
Zhao Anchen was unhappy because of this: "..."
Ming Le said: "My brother went to northern Xinjiang to fight the Liao army."
Zhao Anchen stood up instantly, staring: "When did you leave?"
Ming Le said: "It's been three days, counting the distance and riding fast alone, we should almost reach the northern border by now."
Zhao Anchen didn't care about Mingle's stay in the house, and took off his cassock and monk robes. He was no longer a monk, put on his own robe, got on his horse, left the temple and went straight to Duke Wu's mansion.
He quickly stepped into his room, quickly put on the same white robe and silver armor and battle helmet as Ming Xiaoyang, put on the Dragon Spear, mounted his horse and left the city, heading straight to the north.
Seeing Ming Xiaoyang coming back and leaving again, Bai Heyun was taken aback, and beckoned to Butler Zhu, but Butler Zhu said, "I just saw that too, that's not Young Master, it's His Royal Highness King Ning."
Bai Heyun: "!!!" Called Huo Yuan: "You immediately lead a team of elite guards to follow His Highness King Ning along the road. By the way, ask someone to enter the palace to inform the officials."
Huo Yuan said: "Yes!"
The official family was drinking tea in the Jingxi Palace, when they received a report from Jingwei, they slapped their thighs: "Oh, my Chen'er, I really don't want to worry about it, what should I do?" Imagining his son in an instant The scene of being surrounded by 20 troops is frowning.
Concubine Jing said: "Don't be too anxious, Yun'er will protect my son."
The official said: "Aren't you worried, mother?"
Concubine Jing said: "It's a lie to say that you don't worry, what's the use of worrying, my son has grown up."
The official sighed.
When King Qing heard that the sixth brother was going to the battlefield, he was so frightened that he immediately went to the Daxiangguo Temple and put on three pillars of high incense. He knelt down and worshiped, and said in his mouth: "Amitabha, I pray to the gods and gods of all walks of life to protect my sixth brother. Come back!" Kowtowed his head, and when he raised his head, he thought that he was so unjust, so he quickly stood up and put on three pillars of high incense, knelt back and said, "I also bless brother Ming for his safe return!" Kowtowed three times, stood up and bowed I bowed again before I gave up and went back to the palace.
☆, the first battle two
On the battlefield in northern Xinjiang, Luo Yuning and Luo Zhan father and son brought [-] forbidden troops to Yukou Pass almost at the same time as Ming Xiaoyang. The Khitan people are good at fighting, it looks like they are, and they are stronger than our Song army."
Luo Yuning said: "Does my nephew have any countermeasures?"
The general of the defending army said: "Finally, I am looking forward to your coming. The Liao army has 20 troops, and the defenders only have [-]. I can't sleep. General Ming said how to fight, I will prepare immediately!"
Luo Zhan said: "One soldier, five plus seven, is only 12, less than half of the Liao army, can Uncle Zheng sleep? Who am I?"
Zheng Ning said with a smile: "It's better than fifty thousand. The main reason is that General Ming is here, so I feel a lot more at ease."
Luo Zhan pulled Zheng Ning aside, and whispered: "My brother Ming is very powerful, but he is only one year older than me. He is only sixteen this year, and he is not yet an adult. Uncle Zheng must not take it lightly, and he must cheer up to fight the battle." It is."
Zheng Ning said with a smile: "Young master Luo is very calm at a young age. Not bad, really good. The Ming family is not ordinary. Duke Wu fought in the battlefield at the age of 16, and has made countless military achievements. Whether they are adults or not, the Ming family should not be underestimated. This little Duke Wu, I think he is also a good guy!"
Luo Zhan said: "Well, it is true."
Ming Xiaoyang said: "The cavalry of the Liao army are powerful. If we can dampen their spirit first, we can fight a lot more. But our army has only [-] defenders. Why haven't they attacked in the past three days?"
Zheng Ning immediately walked over and replied: "I don't know about the last general, I just saw that they are indeed preparing their troops, and they occasionally look around."
Ming Xiaoyang was silent for a while, and said: "Put the Mingzi battle flag on the city wall and try!"
Zheng Ning said: "Yes!" The adjutant ordered to do it quickly.
Ming Xiaoyang asked: "Are there enough shields, crossbows, and fire oil in the army?"
Zheng Ning said: "There are many, as many as you want!"
Ming Xiaoyang nodded: "OK."
Before evening, the Liao army still hadn't attacked, and the defenders of the Song Dynasty had planted banners with Ming characters all over the city wall.Not long after nightfall, they heard movement in the Liao camp. The generals climbed up the city wall to look around. Seeing that the Liao army had withdrawn, Zheng Ning laughed and said, "Haha, if I knew this move would work, why would I not be able to sleep well for three days!"
Ming Xiaoyang said: "They are approaching the city. We don't have time to form an army. We can only fight hard first. We will lose a lot of soldiers. Now it's good. At Chenshi, our army will go out of the city to fight!"
Luo Yuning said: "Didn't they withdraw their troops?"
Ming Xiaoyang said: "I will be back soon. If I don't come back, I will beat them back. All the lieutenants listen to me and prepare for the battle!"
The lieutenants said: "Yes!"
Luo Yuning and Zheng Ning were stuck in place, not understanding what was going on.
Commander-in-chief of the Liao army, Cheng Wang, led his troops to withdraw for two and a half hours one night, until the time of Hai, he ordered the whole army to camp and rest, and returned to Beijing tomorrow morning.Although His Majesty ordered that if Ming Ruiran was really alive and served as the commander-in-chief, the Liao army would retreat, but it was always a bit unwilling to withdraw like this, and it became more and more uncomfortable, so he called an older deputy general and asked: "You Have you ever seen Ming Ruiran go to battle?"
The lieutenant general said: "I will see you at the end."
Cheng Wang said: "Will Ming Ruiran plant handsome flags all over the city?"
The deputy general thought for a while and replied: "Ming Ruiran went to battle, there are many handsome flags in the army, but I have never seen him sticking on the city wall."
King Cheng slapped his thigh and said, "Not good!" He said in his heart, "It's a trick! The Song army planted the commander-in-chief flag all over the city wall. It must be that Ming Ruiran is not at the border, and the number of defenders is not enough to resist my 20 army, otherwise Why did they cheat? If a few flags were used to defraud the 20 Liao army, would it still be worth it if it got out? What kind of face will this king have in order to attack the Song Dynasty? No! Chenming must fight back, directly Siege the city and move south!"
As soon as dawn arrived, Cheng Wang Yelu Hezhuo got on his horse and gave an order: "All soldiers obey the order! Today we will attack Song Dynasty and avenge our [-] warriors!"
The whole army shouted: "Yes!"
Song Jun's frontier pass outside the city is flat, although there is no danger to defend, easy to attack and difficult to defend, but the only advantage is that as long as there is time, it is convenient to deploy.
The Liao army only walked for an hour. Before reaching the city wall, they saw the [-] Song army in the distance, and they had already left the city to greet them.
Yelu Hezhuo felt that this was a great humiliation, not only being cheated, but also being ridiculed!Not only that, looking at the situation, if he doesn't turn back, will he still be chased and beaten?In an instant, he became angry from embarrassment.Seeing that tens of thousands of infantry were leading the front of the Song army, he smiled secretly in his heart and said, "Huh, it really wasn't Ming Ruiran who used infantry to meet our Daliao forward iron cavalry. So what if you took the lead, aren't you stupid? Scum?" He gave an order: "Come for me!"
The infantry in front of the Song army immediately formed a formation, gathering their shields in front, and the infantry general behind shouted: "Shoot the arrows!" At once, thousands of arrows were fired, shooting and killing a large number of Liao cavalry.
When the Liao army was about to charge and kill the infantry of the Song Dynasty, the infantry suddenly changed formation. The original large square formation was immediately divided into several square formations, and several straight and long passages were opened. The infantry on both sides of the passage all gathered together High shield.
The cavalry rushing at full speed cannot just stop. If the front stops, the rear will hit them, and they will roll into a group with heavy casualties. Therefore, Liao cavalry cannot dodge in time, so they can only be divided into several groups. They have to keep moving forward when they see the road , rushed into the formation.
After the Liao cavalry entered the battle, there were human walls and high shields on both sides. The Liao cavalry slashed around and had little effect. The Song infantry suffered few casualties. The Liao cavalry rushed for a long time and saw the Song cavalry behind the Song infantry. At that time, the Song infantry general shouted: "Crossbow | Arrows, let go!" A large number of infantry behind the shields on both sides took the crossbow | arrows behind them, and shot and killed tens of thousands of Liao cavalry who had nowhere to hide in the formation.
Crossbow | Arrows are powerful and accurate when shooting at close range.Between the phalanx and the phalanx, there are high shields on the edges, and they are not afraid of shooting their own people. The cavalry rides on horseback, standing high, like a target, and it is very easy to shoot with crossbow|arrows.The Song infantry shot and killed the Liao cavalry for a long time, and the Liao cavalry suffered heavy losses. They barely ran to the end of the infantry phalanx. Those few Liao cavalrymen faced tens of thousands of Song army cavalry.
After more than half of the cavalry rushed into the Song infantry phalanx, Yelu Hezhuo felt that something was wrong, and urgently stopped half of the cavalry not to continue charging, and it was still saved.He also ordered: "Infantry against infantry, let me go!" The Liao infantry marched to the front of the Liao army's formation, and first shot a rain of arrows at the Song infantry phalanx. The formation changed, and several long square formations became a whole square formation, and the front army still erected its high shields.
The Liao infantry held their spears and wanted to rush forward to pierce the Song infantry's phalanx. The Song infantry fired arrows and shot one more shot. When all the Liao infantry reached the front of the phalanx, the Song phalanx burst into several passages in an instant. , the Song cavalry in the rear rushed out along the passage, and the charging Liao infantry fell to pieces, but the Song cavalry did not love to fight, and rushed directly to the tens of thousands of remaining Liao cavalry.The Daliao cavalry wanted to rush to fight, but they couldn't. Tens of thousands of Liao infantry were still blocking the front, unable to charge. Cheng Wang Yelu Hezhuo was so anxious that he could only order: "The whole army of cavalry is ready to charge!"
After all the Song cavalry rushed out of the phalanx, the infantry phalanx joined together again, and a human wall and high shield were erected in front of the formation again.The infantry of the Liao Army couldn't enter the Song infantry phalanx, but was rushed by the Song cavalry who broke out of the formation, which was quite miserable.
Tens of thousands of Song cavalrymen had two jars and two large cloth bags hanging under their horse bellies. When the front army was about to rush out of the Liao infantry, the cavalry general who rushed to the front sent a signal to the air. He broke the two jars in his belly and threw them off the horse, and at the same time threw the two big cloth bags off the horse.After that, all the Song cavalry did not continue to move forward to attack the Liao cavalry, but turned to the sides and killed out of the tens of thousands of Liao army infantry who were rushed.
Seeing that the Liao cavalry hadn't waited for the Song cavalry, the Song cavalry ran to both sides, and could only stand there stupidly, not knowing what this meant, neither rushing nor not rushing.While hesitating, the general of the Song infantry phalanx shouted: "Shoot the arrow!"
A burst of rockets wrapped in tarpaulins on the arrows were fired in unison, and tens of thousands of Liao army infantry instantly burned into a sea of flames.The two pots under the bellies of tens of thousands of cavalrymen in Song Dynasty were fierce fire oil, and the two large cloth bags were also rags and cotton wool soaked in oil.
Liao's [-] infantry were all buried in the flames, and the Song infantry phalanx fired arrows all over the sky, making the battlefield miserable.It was the end of summer at this time, and the south wind was blowing, and the fire rushed towards the cavalry of the Liao army. The scorching heat wave became stronger and stronger, forcing the cavalry of the Liao army to retreat.The Song cavalry, who were retreating to both sides of the battle formation, quickly surrounded the remaining tens of thousands of Liao cavalry regiments, forming a siege, attacking from the outside to the inside, the Liao cavalry were caught off guard for a while, and suffered heavy losses
Cheng Wang Yelu Hezhuo saw that something was wrong, he immediately ordered the Liao cavalry to rush out, and asked the lieutenant next to him, "Who is the commander of this battle?"
The lieutenant general panicked: "The last general doesn't know, he hasn't shown up yet!"
Yelu Hezhuo asked: "You are a veteran, do you think it is Ming Ruiran?"
The lieutenant general said: "It doesn't look like it, it's more ruthless than Ming Ruiran, oh my lord, it doesn't matter who is the commander-in-chief of the Song Army now, you have to think about breaking through with the whole army!"
The Khitan iron cavalry really lived up to their reputation. The Song army cavalry killed a lot when the Liao iron cavalry was caught off guard, but after the Liao iron cavalry reacted, both sides were injured in the fight.When it was time to fight to Shen, the sky was still dark, and the cavalry of the Song Dynasty failed to encircle and suppress, and the cavalry of the Liao Dynasty failed to break through the siege, and the battle was stalemate.
However, at this time, on the battlefield, the fire had receded, and the Liao infantry was almost dead and wounded. Tens of thousands of infantry in the Song phalanx rushed forward. He was completely killed, and there was no one left to breathe. The Liao army only had [-] cavalry surrounding King Cheng.
Yelu Hezhuo didn't want to fight anymore, he just wanted to run, and ordered a small group of Song cavalry to resist the encirclement, and the rest gathered together to break through to the north!
The Song infantry threw down their bows and arrows, carried the crossbow behind their backs, held the shield in one hand and the knife hanging from their waist in the other, and charged towards the surrounded Liao cavalry.Those who shoot people with crossbows, those who use shields and knives to chop horses' legs, they can do whatever they want. The Liao cavalry were anxious to break out of the siege, but they saw tens of thousands of Song infantry pressing over with their crossbows and knives. , even more flustered.
At this time, the coach Ming Xiaoyang was standing on the city wall watching the battle, eating while watching, very leisurely.None of the generals participated in the battle. According to Ming Xiaoyang's order, they all stood on the city wall to watch, and those who went down were only the leading lieutenants who could read the battle flag.
Zheng Ning and Luo Yuning watched the battle for a day, and were amazed. In this battle, the Liao army was beaten so badly.
Luo Zhan turned his head and said, "Brother Ming, why are you still eating?"
Ming Xiaoyang said: "Why don't you eat? Didn't you see that the siege over there is not going well? How can I go to battle and kill the enemy if I don't eat? The Liao army has no time to eat, so I can't be hungry too?"
Luo Zhan nodded and said, "That makes sense, huh? You want to go out? You have sent all you can, and there are still [-] defenders in the city. Do you want to take some out?"
Ming Xiaoyang smiled and said: "No, it's enough for me to go out by myself. There's no need for more, the soldiers outside are already enough."
Luo Yuning asked, "What are you doing out by yourself?"
Ming Xiaoyang said: "Now the cavalry of the Liao army are brave and our army cannot attack by force. What if I enter the center of the Liao army alone and kill the commander? Most of them will be defeated, and our army will encircle and suppress them even faster."
Zheng Ning said: "No, you will surely die if you rush into the tens of thousands of Liao army's cavalry alone! Absolutely not!"
Luo Yuning said anxiously: "Nephew, I know that you have great martial arts skills, but it is absolutely impossible for one person to fight against tens of thousands. If you have something good or bad, how can I explain it to your father!"
Ming Xiaoyang suddenly said seriously: "My life is my life, and my Song soldiers also have parents. If I can kill the commander of the Liao army as soon as possible, my Song army may lose tens of thousands of deaths. Now there are still Liao cavalry soldiers. About [-], if they rise up to resist, by the time they are all killed, our army will have at least tens of thousands of casualties. The situation of the battle has always been variable. If they escape, tens of thousands of Liao cavalry will come back again in the future Kill us how many Song soldiers."
Huo Tong said, "I'll go with you!"
Ming Xiaoyang said: "You can't go, you will die!"
Huo Tong said: "Even if you die, you have to follow the young master!"
Ming Xiaoyang said: "Okay, huh? Look over there!" As soon as Huo Tong turned his head, he was slapped unconscious by Ming Xiaoyang's palm, and said to General Luo: "Take care of him for me, don't let him enter the room alone. Liao Army."
Luo Yuning said: "Not only him, but even you!"
When Ming Xiaoyang saw that the infantry had slowly infiltrated the edge of the Liao army, he walked down the city wall, holding the Yanyue Saber, and rode Tianyou to charge towards the Liao army alone.
Zheng Ning was stunned, Luo Yuning was about to go crazy, Luo Zhan was dumbfounded, and the three of them stood on the city wall at a loss, unable to stop them.
Not long after, Ming Xiaoyang, who was dressed in white robe and silver armor, entered the Liao army alone. He played the Yanyue knife in his hand superbly. He used the secret skill "Full Moon" knife technique several times in a row, killing a path of blood in the blink of an eye. Liao Shuai is getting closer and closer.
The five generals guarding Yelu Hezhuo seemed to be unkind, so they all rushed towards Ming Xiaoyang and surrounded him.Ming Xiaoyang looked around, there were tens of thousands of Liao soldiers and Liao generals around him, but not a single Song soldier could be seen.
Luo Yuning was so anxious that his fists were almost shattered, and he hurriedly waved the command flag to rescue the Liao army, so as to save Ming Xiaoyang's life.Looking sideways, the command flag was gone... It collapsed in an instant.
Liao generals are generals after all, not soldiers.Ming Xiaoyang could see Commander Liao, but couldn't move forward for a while, so he had to fight these Liao generals.Several Liao generals could not take down Ming Xiaoyang with their joint efforts, so they could only forcefully drag Ming Xiaoyang not to move towards Yelu Hezhuo.Ming Xiaoyang was also in a hard fight.
The lieutenant beside Yelu Hezhuo said: "My lord, look at the helmet tassel on this man's head! He is the commander in chief!"
Yelu Hezhuo said: "A teenage coach? Still so brave? What does he want to do here alone?!"
The lieutenant said: "He wants to behead the general!"
Another officer ran over and said, "We found it, he is Ming Ruiran's son! This man must die!"
Hearing this, Yelu Hezhuo shouted, "Kill him quickly! Great reward! Strong Crossbow Camp, hurry up and aim!"
Ming Xiaoyang felt that something was wrong, he had to make a quick decision, and if the fight continued, it would be even more troublesome.In an instant, cold arrows kept shooting over.
Ming Xiaoyang used the Yanyue Knife to use "Full Moon" frequently, while tearing off Ming Le's white snake bone long whip, "Full Moon" and "Controlling the Dragon" came out together, and finally killed two generals, and the other three were good at martial arts of.
Luo Yuning said: "No, I have to go in and save him!"
Zheng Ning said: "Oh, General Luo, can you go in? You were killed before you got there!"
At this moment, Luo Yuning was slapped heavily on the shoulder, looked back, and said in shock: "His Royal Highness King Ning???"
Zheng Ning didn't know King Ning, so when he heard it, he immediately stepped forward and bowed: "His Royal Highness King Ning!"
Zhao Anchen rode the Dawan BMW and ran for two days and one night, and he was almost exhausted by now.Seeing this, Luo Yuning yelled: "Quick! Water! Rice! Quick!" The soldiers went to get it immediately, and Zhao Anchen sat on the ground and asked how the battle was going?
Luo Yuning said: "The commander-in-chief commanded well, everything went well, and this battle will definitely be won."
Zhao Anchen breathed a sigh of relief, took the water and rice, and wolfed down the meal.He asked, "Where's Ming Huan?"
Luo Yuning glanced at Ming Xiaoyang, who was fighting in the Liao army, and said, "Ah, I have led the troops to battle, there is nothing unusual."
Luo Zhan said: "Brother Ming..."
Luo Yuning stretched out his hand to his son's waist and pinched him fiercely, interrupting Luo Zhan's words.
Zhao Anchen said: "That's good." He fell asleep on the ground in an instant.
After an hour, Ming Xiaoyang killed all the generals who besieged him, and was surrounded by a group of Liao soldiers, who continued to fight and used "Feng Yin" to guard against the cold arrows that came from time to time.Before leaving the city, all the food I ate was exhausted, and my body was a little tired.The Liao army started the crowd tactics, and all the surrounding Liao troops gathered towards Ming Xiaoyang, forming a typhoon eye in the Liao army.
Luo Yuning looked terrified, and almost fainted several times during this hour.At this time, the shoulder was slapped heavily again, and looking back, it was a group of Bai family's elite guards, who were overjoyed immediately and asked, "Where do you come from? Can you join the battle?"
Jingwei said: "The 30 of us came from nearby after receiving a letter from the master Feige. The other Jingwei who protected King Ning from the capital, like King Ning, were exhausted and paralyzed below. We can join the battle, if The young master needs it."
Luo Yuning said: "Okay!"
Jingwei asked, "Where is my young master?"
Luo Zhan couldn't wait to say: "It's there! A little white among the ten thousand armies!"
Jingwei was taken aback and asked, "How long has the young master been in?"
Luo Yuning said: "It's almost two hours."
Jingwei shouted: "What? It's almost the limit if you fight like this!"
Zheng Ning said: "I just played against a few generals, and it was even more intense than now. I guess it has reached its limit."
Jingwei said: "Our young master will die!" Turning around and rushing down the city wall, thirty Jingwei mounted their horses and went straight to the Liao army to rescue the young master.
Luo Yuning felt a little better when he saw a group of flying cavalry in white.Just as he wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, he choked the breath in his throat again. Behind Bai's Jingwei, a white robe and silver armor appeared!When Luo Yuning turned around, he found that King Ning, who was sleeping dead on the ground, was gone!
Both Luo Yuning and Zheng Ning were so frightened that they almost lost their breath.Luo Yuning already felt the moment his head was clicked, and touched his neck wanting to cry without tears.
Ming Xiaoyang was very tired, his behavior became sluggish, and he was still fighting. He was very close to Liao Shuai. Yelu Hezhuo was frightened by Ming Xiaoyang, his face turned pale, and he turned around on the horse and wanted to run. , stepped on the ground suddenly, flew into the sky against "Feishuang", and went straight to Yelu Hezhuo, suddenly an arrow shot on his calf, Ming Xiaoyang shook his body, gritted his teeth and stabbed Yelu Hezhuo with "Controlling the Dragon" Yelu Hezhuo fell off his horse, Ming Xiaoyang also fell, and was surrounded by a group of Liao soldiers in an instant, fighting again.Bai's Jingwei entered the Liao army and got closer and closer to Ming Xiaoyang.
The father and son of the Luo family and General Zheng Ning saw on the city wall that the elite guards of the Bai clan were so brave, they tore a hole in the cavalry of the Liao army, and rushed in without any effort, heading towards Ming Xiaoyang.
Zheng Ning asked: "Who are this group of white-clothed soldiers? Everyone is as brave as a commander-in-chief?!"
Luo Yuning said: "They are far worse than the commander in chief, but they can be called brave. These people are the private soldiers of our commander in chief, the Bai family's Jingwei."
Zheng Ning sighed: "Amazing!"
Ming Xiaoyang reluctantly chopped off the arrow tail on his leg, tried his best to fight, and chased Yelu Hezhuo at the same time. With a move of "full moon", Yanyue's long knife was thrown away, driving away a circle of Liao soldiers, and the knife hadn't returned yet. Ming Xiaoyang leaned over and sprinted out under the knife track, and another move of "Controlling the Dragon" locked Yelu Hezhuo's calf with a snake bone whip. Xiao Yanggang wanted to dodge, but suddenly his calf hurt, he bled profusely, became dizzy for a while, and couldn't dodge...
I saw that the Yanyue knife that I just threw out and gave up taking back was used by someone to use the "full moon" move to instantly kill a circle of Liao soldiers who surrounded him. This person caught the turning Yanyue knife and stood beside Ming Xiaoyang.Ming Xiaoyang didn't care about who was coming, and immediately pulled the snake bone whip in his left hand, dragging Yelu Hezhuo to his eyes, pulled out the sword with his right hand, and pierced Yelu Hezhuo's head with a blow of "Guan Ri". chest.He also fell to the ground, and vaguely saw a person guarding him against the crazy counterattack of the surrounding Liao army.Ming Xiaoyang lay on the ground panting for a few breaths, closed his eyes and shouted three times: "Commander Liao is dead, the Liao army is defeated!" The Liao army fighting around turned their heads one after another, seeing Yelu Hezhuo who died on the ground, suddenly In a panic, the Song army took the opportunity to attack the Liao army.
Ming Xiaoyang opened his eyes and saw clearly the person who had just saved him countless times, and said in surprise: "Zhao Yi!?"
Someone in the Liao army shouted: "No matter what happens today,
Ming Xiaoyang said: "Then my father was really hit by an arrow?"
Ming Ruiran said: "No, it's just a scratch, Dad did it on purpose."
Ming Xiaoyang was silent for a while, and said with emotion: "Every day, the sun rises and the sun sets, there is nothing unusual about it, but under the calm, it is so dangerous and dark, changing rapidly."
Ming Ruiran said: "Then there is no reason for the years to be quiet. We all know that the emperor is noble, but we don't know his hard work and difficulty."
Ming Xiaoyang said in a deep voice: "Well, as the Son of Heaven, if he wants to purge the imperial court, shake up the turbidity and promote the clean, but also be forced to feign death, risking his life to face the palace change, what if something goes wrong... Isn't it really tragic."
Bai Heyun said: "It seems that the ending is smooth and unimpeded, but the gap between life and death, success and failure, and the survival of the country. The thoughts and efforts of the officials and us are not only It can be fully summarized by being serious. Xiaoyang, can you understand it?"
Ming Xiaoyang nodded solemnly: "Arresting more than a thousand officials in and out of the field overnight, won't it cause turmoil in the court?"
Bai Heyun said: "If a person has no clothes to replace, will he take off his own at will? If his old clothes are torn, he will naturally have to prepare new clothes before he can change the old clothes. Even if this is the case for one person, How about a country?"
Ming Xiaoyang said: "Yes, yes."
In the evening, Ming Xiaoyang sat alone in the study, unusually quiet, thinking: "Whether Zhao Yi becomes the emperor or not, he will be in charge in the future. No wonder he is so depressed that he becomes a monk. He really should think about it. Now There are my father and mother in the official family, as well as some loyal ministers and good generals, but if Zhao Yi is in power in the future, who will help him." Thinking of this, I felt an inexplicable heartache.
Emperor Liao was furious, and yelled in front of all his officials: "What? Ming Ruiran is not dead? The Song emperor is not dead either? The civil strife subsided overnight? My [-] warriors just disappeared for no apparent reason. ? Dare to deceive the king, what should you do!"
Shuai Liao knelt in front of the hall, trembling, not daring to say a word.Emperor Liao yelled: "Drag it for me and put you in prison!"
The guard stepped forward and took Shuai Liao down.
Emperor Liao said: "Damn Hu Hang, my 20 soldiers can't die in vain! Pass my order, and the [-] troops will immediately regroup and attack Song Dynasty!"
When the prince heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward: "No, 20 troops will not be able to destroy Song, and Xia is restless, Ming Ruiran is still here, who is the commander of our army? Absolutely no!"
Cheng Wang said: "Why not, if this cowardice suffers like this for no reason, others will think that our Liao is weak and can be bullied, and it will make them feel offended. The Khitan warriors would rather fight, and Liao's iron cavalry is not just for show. Yes! This king is willing to take command personally!"
The generals all expressed their willingness to join the war and went south to attack the Song Dynasty.
The crown prince said: "Don't be impatient, Prince Cheng, how can you be impulsive when it comes to military affairs?!"
Cheng Wang said: "Then the one hundred thousand soldiers died in vain?"
Emperor Liao shouted: "Okay! Shut up! Alas... 20 troops are calling for battle at the frontier. Let's see who is in charge of the Song Dynasty. If it is Ming Ruiran, then don't act rashly until our army discusses a new method of warfare." If it is someone else, we will first capture a few of his states and give me [-] soldiers to sacrifice their spirits!"
In the early morning, Ming Ruiran and Ming Jue father and son went to the court, Bai Heyun usually went to the palace for business, and did not go to court when there was nothing to do.Since Ming Xiaoyang took over the title, he stood in the early court, and felt that the two Dukes of Wu were really strange. The officials didn't make any adjustments, and the idiot King Qing didn't know how to adjust, so the two Dukes of Wu just went to one. Ming Xiaoyang is at home.
After the recent toss, Bai Heyun's Bai family affairs have piled up quite a lot.Zhao Anchen had "became a monk", and after Ming Xiaoyang had experienced "deceived death by officials" and "death of both parents", his temperament became much calmer, and he worked hard in the study honestly.
Huo Tong is fine, he just practiced in the courtyard, and everything in Duke Wu's mansion is as usual.
"I'm back!" With a yell, Ming Le came back and called Huo Tong: "Huo Tong, help, you also come to help! I bought a lot of delicious and interesting things along the way, and Yangzhou is also very interesting!" happily As he said that, he had no idea that there was a great funeral at home during this period of time.
Huo Tong went over to help, Ming Le asked, "Where are they?"
Huo Tong said: "Mr. Wu and Mr. Jue have gone to court early. The head of the family is in Zhuzhai, and the young master is in the study."
Ming Le smiled and said: "My brother is in the study? Hahaha!" Ming Le skipped and looked at the queen, then went to find Ming Xiaoyang.
"Brother! There are thousand-layer cakes from Yangzhou!" Ming Le entered the study room and put his arms around Ming Xiaoyang's neck.
Ming Xiaoyang said: "Well, let's eat later, Le'er don't make trouble, brother is busy."
Ming Le said: "Are you busy? What are you... what is this?" Ming Le looked down, and saw that there were things he couldn't understand.
Ming Xiaoyang said: "The formation diagram I invented will be ready in a while, you go and sit on the side, don't shake it, I can't even hold my pen steadily."
Ming Le said: "Oh, good! Let me tell you, Sister Shen's father is a strange uncle. He looks very like Mother, even weirder than Mother."
When Ming Xiaoyang heard that it was Shen Xuanqing's strange father, he asked, "How strange?"
Mingle said: "One day, I saw his servant carrying a large wooden tray covered with gold, and said: 'Master, this is from Master Li, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, his grandson is full moon, I hope the master can help He carved a jade pendant and gave it to his grandson as a full moon gift." Then I heard Uncle Shen say: "A small official minister has a lot of handwriting. For the monthly salary of the official minister, where did he get 300 taels of gold. Tell him to take back the dirty money and don't dirty my place.'Brother, do you think the Minister of the Ministry of Officials is a very small official?"
Ming Xiaoyang said: "Although it can't compare with our family, it's not too small, and it's a Beijing official."
Ming Le said: "Who is the Minister of the Ministry of Officials? It seems that he is not a good official."
Ming Xiaoyang said: "The Minister of the Ministry of Officials was sent to prison a few days ago. Now there is probably no Minister of the Ministry of Officials. In a few days, someone will take up his post. I don't know who the new Minister of the Ministry is."
Ming Le said: "Sure enough, it's not a good thing. If there is no official secretary, who will do it?"
Ming Xiaoyang said: "Who knows, probably the subordinates of the Ministry of Officials."
Ming Le said: "Oh, Uncle Shen doesn't seem to take Shang Shu seriously, he is not a simple person."
Ming Xiaoyang smiled and said, "Well, that's true."
Ming Le said: "You know?"
Ming Xiaoyang shook his head: "I don't know."
in the palace.
One day later, the officials called Ming Ruiran to the study to discuss matters: "Ruiran, Liao hasn't retreated yet, what do you think should be done?"
Ming Ruiran said, "I'll go."
The official said: "What do you think of Xiaoyang?"
Ming Ruiran thought for a while: "It's fine, it's still too small, isn't it?"
The official said with a smile: "You were also 16 years old when you went to the battlefield to lead the army. Why don't you think you are young?"
Ming Ruiran said: "Well, that's right, then let Xiaoyang go, there is no need to lead troops there, the northwest border is stable and there is no fighting, I have already asked General Luo to support the northern defenders with the [-] forbidden troops that I sent out the day before yesterday. "
The official said: "Alright, let Xiaoyang get ready to go."
Ming Ruiran said: "Okay."
Early the next morning, Ming Xiaoyang put on the battle robe and silver armor, still carefully hung the unnamed sword on his waist, and took the Yanyue Saber.Mingle was very worried when he saw the silly brother going out, so he stuck his white snake bone whip on Ming Xiaoyang's waist.Ming Xiaoyang took Huotong along and galloped all the way to the northern border.
Ming Ruiran saw that Ming Le was holding a few pieces of paper and was reading them seriously while sitting in Ming Xiaoyang's study, so he went in and asked, "What is Le'er looking at?"
Mingle said: "The talisman I drew, I call it a formation."
Ming Ruiran said: "Well, it's time for you to learn too. Starting tomorrow, I will go to your Brother Jue to teach you."
Ming Le said: "Okay! I'll go now." He ran out happily.
Ming Ruiran picked up these pictures and looked at them, he was shocked, and went to Zhuzhai to find Bai Heyun with the pictures.Bai Heyun smiled slightly: "As expected of your son, he is even better than you. I never thought that our son is a genius. I'm afraid the Liao army will suffer this time."
Ming Ruiran took out one of them: "Xiaoyang discovered that this ten evil formation has the most powerful soldiers, full of murderous aura, and the victory of the formation can devour millions of soldiers, but the main formation of this formation will appear at the end of the battle, and it is the most dangerous , the master general with extremely high martial arts skills is required to enter in person, and the master general will win the battle alive, and the master general will die, and the victory or defeat is hard to say. This is a very risky formation of opening and closing. It is better not to use this formation unless it is a last resort. Soldiers are impermanent, water is impermanent, if there is still a choice, this formation is the worst strategy."
Bai Heyun said: "...According to Xiaoyang's personality, it's not surprising that he can draw this kind of formation. I guess this kind of battle is exactly what he wants to fight the most."
Ming Ruiran became nervous like a child in an instant: "Yun'er, don't scare me. This is not a joke. The battlefield is dangerous. Are you going to cut off the incense of my Ming family? No, I'm going to watch him."
Bai Heyun smiled and said: "Hahaha, you are in a hurry, the officials let you sit in the capital, and you are not allowed to leave without authorization."
Ming Ruiran sat down angrily: "Yun'er is still laughing, and won't give me more children."
Bai Heyun looked at him with great interest: "If you give birth, I will do my best. If you are unwilling, go find someone else to give birth to you while you are in your prime, before it is too late. The Ming family is a general, and if there is someone on the battlefield Sooner or later, it's normal, so I won't blame you. In short, I'm done with Le'er."
Ming Ruiran lowered his eyes and said aggrievedly: "Yun'er don't say that again, I don't."
Bai Heyun thought in his heart: "My husband is still so cute." He got up and walked over, holding the wronged Ming Ruiran and said: "It's okay, even if Xiaoyang is really in danger, he will come back alive. Aren't we all Did you come here like this, you are so nervous when it's your son's turn to make contributions?"
Ming Ruiran worried: "Xiaoyang's newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, I'm worried about his recklessness."
Bai Heyun smiled and said "hmm".
Ming Le learned the art of war in Ming Jue's study for three days, and asked: "Brother Jue, I suddenly thought that my brother and Ning Wang are inseparable on weekdays, why didn't I see Ning Wang when my brother went out to fight?"
Ming Jue said: "Prince Ning has become a monk."
Ming Le asked in surprise: "What? Is it true?"
Mingjue said: "Well, really, it's in Tianqing Temple."
Ming Le threw down the book, got on the horse and went to Tianqing Temple to see Zhao Anchen.
"Brother Ning Wang!" Ming Le entered the meditation room and asked, "Don't you think that Brother Ning is a bit strange these days?"
Seeing Ming Le coming, Zhao Anchen asked, "What's the matter?"
Ming Le said: "Aren't you surprised that my brother didn't bother you?"
Zhao Anchen was unhappy because of this: "..."
Ming Le said: "My brother went to northern Xinjiang to fight the Liao army."
Zhao Anchen stood up instantly, staring: "When did you leave?"
Ming Le said: "It's been three days, counting the distance and riding fast alone, we should almost reach the northern border by now."
Zhao Anchen didn't care about Mingle's stay in the house, and took off his cassock and monk robes. He was no longer a monk, put on his own robe, got on his horse, left the temple and went straight to Duke Wu's mansion.
He quickly stepped into his room, quickly put on the same white robe and silver armor and battle helmet as Ming Xiaoyang, put on the Dragon Spear, mounted his horse and left the city, heading straight to the north.
Seeing Ming Xiaoyang coming back and leaving again, Bai Heyun was taken aback, and beckoned to Butler Zhu, but Butler Zhu said, "I just saw that too, that's not Young Master, it's His Royal Highness King Ning."
Bai Heyun: "!!!" Called Huo Yuan: "You immediately lead a team of elite guards to follow His Highness King Ning along the road. By the way, ask someone to enter the palace to inform the officials."
Huo Yuan said: "Yes!"
The official family was drinking tea in the Jingxi Palace, when they received a report from Jingwei, they slapped their thighs: "Oh, my Chen'er, I really don't want to worry about it, what should I do?" Imagining his son in an instant The scene of being surrounded by 20 troops is frowning.
Concubine Jing said: "Don't be too anxious, Yun'er will protect my son."
The official said: "Aren't you worried, mother?"
Concubine Jing said: "It's a lie to say that you don't worry, what's the use of worrying, my son has grown up."
The official sighed.
When King Qing heard that the sixth brother was going to the battlefield, he was so frightened that he immediately went to the Daxiangguo Temple and put on three pillars of high incense. He knelt down and worshiped, and said in his mouth: "Amitabha, I pray to the gods and gods of all walks of life to protect my sixth brother. Come back!" Kowtowed his head, and when he raised his head, he thought that he was so unjust, so he quickly stood up and put on three pillars of high incense, knelt back and said, "I also bless brother Ming for his safe return!" Kowtowed three times, stood up and bowed I bowed again before I gave up and went back to the palace.
☆, the first battle two
On the battlefield in northern Xinjiang, Luo Yuning and Luo Zhan father and son brought [-] forbidden troops to Yukou Pass almost at the same time as Ming Xiaoyang. The Khitan people are good at fighting, it looks like they are, and they are stronger than our Song army."
Luo Yuning said: "Does my nephew have any countermeasures?"
The general of the defending army said: "Finally, I am looking forward to your coming. The Liao army has 20 troops, and the defenders only have [-]. I can't sleep. General Ming said how to fight, I will prepare immediately!"
Luo Zhan said: "One soldier, five plus seven, is only 12, less than half of the Liao army, can Uncle Zheng sleep? Who am I?"
Zheng Ning said with a smile: "It's better than fifty thousand. The main reason is that General Ming is here, so I feel a lot more at ease."
Luo Zhan pulled Zheng Ning aside, and whispered: "My brother Ming is very powerful, but he is only one year older than me. He is only sixteen this year, and he is not yet an adult. Uncle Zheng must not take it lightly, and he must cheer up to fight the battle." It is."
Zheng Ning said with a smile: "Young master Luo is very calm at a young age. Not bad, really good. The Ming family is not ordinary. Duke Wu fought in the battlefield at the age of 16, and has made countless military achievements. Whether they are adults or not, the Ming family should not be underestimated. This little Duke Wu, I think he is also a good guy!"
Luo Zhan said: "Well, it is true."
Ming Xiaoyang said: "The cavalry of the Liao army are powerful. If we can dampen their spirit first, we can fight a lot more. But our army has only [-] defenders. Why haven't they attacked in the past three days?"
Zheng Ning immediately walked over and replied: "I don't know about the last general, I just saw that they are indeed preparing their troops, and they occasionally look around."
Ming Xiaoyang was silent for a while, and said: "Put the Mingzi battle flag on the city wall and try!"
Zheng Ning said: "Yes!" The adjutant ordered to do it quickly.
Ming Xiaoyang asked: "Are there enough shields, crossbows, and fire oil in the army?"
Zheng Ning said: "There are many, as many as you want!"
Ming Xiaoyang nodded: "OK."
Before evening, the Liao army still hadn't attacked, and the defenders of the Song Dynasty had planted banners with Ming characters all over the city wall.Not long after nightfall, they heard movement in the Liao camp. The generals climbed up the city wall to look around. Seeing that the Liao army had withdrawn, Zheng Ning laughed and said, "Haha, if I knew this move would work, why would I not be able to sleep well for three days!"
Ming Xiaoyang said: "They are approaching the city. We don't have time to form an army. We can only fight hard first. We will lose a lot of soldiers. Now it's good. At Chenshi, our army will go out of the city to fight!"
Luo Yuning said: "Didn't they withdraw their troops?"
Ming Xiaoyang said: "I will be back soon. If I don't come back, I will beat them back. All the lieutenants listen to me and prepare for the battle!"
The lieutenants said: "Yes!"
Luo Yuning and Zheng Ning were stuck in place, not understanding what was going on.
Commander-in-chief of the Liao army, Cheng Wang, led his troops to withdraw for two and a half hours one night, until the time of Hai, he ordered the whole army to camp and rest, and returned to Beijing tomorrow morning.Although His Majesty ordered that if Ming Ruiran was really alive and served as the commander-in-chief, the Liao army would retreat, but it was always a bit unwilling to withdraw like this, and it became more and more uncomfortable, so he called an older deputy general and asked: "You Have you ever seen Ming Ruiran go to battle?"
The lieutenant general said: "I will see you at the end."
Cheng Wang said: "Will Ming Ruiran plant handsome flags all over the city?"
The deputy general thought for a while and replied: "Ming Ruiran went to battle, there are many handsome flags in the army, but I have never seen him sticking on the city wall."
King Cheng slapped his thigh and said, "Not good!" He said in his heart, "It's a trick! The Song army planted the commander-in-chief flag all over the city wall. It must be that Ming Ruiran is not at the border, and the number of defenders is not enough to resist my 20 army, otherwise Why did they cheat? If a few flags were used to defraud the 20 Liao army, would it still be worth it if it got out? What kind of face will this king have in order to attack the Song Dynasty? No! Chenming must fight back, directly Siege the city and move south!"
As soon as dawn arrived, Cheng Wang Yelu Hezhuo got on his horse and gave an order: "All soldiers obey the order! Today we will attack Song Dynasty and avenge our [-] warriors!"
The whole army shouted: "Yes!"
Song Jun's frontier pass outside the city is flat, although there is no danger to defend, easy to attack and difficult to defend, but the only advantage is that as long as there is time, it is convenient to deploy.
The Liao army only walked for an hour. Before reaching the city wall, they saw the [-] Song army in the distance, and they had already left the city to greet them.
Yelu Hezhuo felt that this was a great humiliation, not only being cheated, but also being ridiculed!Not only that, looking at the situation, if he doesn't turn back, will he still be chased and beaten?In an instant, he became angry from embarrassment.Seeing that tens of thousands of infantry were leading the front of the Song army, he smiled secretly in his heart and said, "Huh, it really wasn't Ming Ruiran who used infantry to meet our Daliao forward iron cavalry. So what if you took the lead, aren't you stupid? Scum?" He gave an order: "Come for me!"
The infantry in front of the Song army immediately formed a formation, gathering their shields in front, and the infantry general behind shouted: "Shoot the arrows!" At once, thousands of arrows were fired, shooting and killing a large number of Liao cavalry.
When the Liao army was about to charge and kill the infantry of the Song Dynasty, the infantry suddenly changed formation. The original large square formation was immediately divided into several square formations, and several straight and long passages were opened. The infantry on both sides of the passage all gathered together High shield.
The cavalry rushing at full speed cannot just stop. If the front stops, the rear will hit them, and they will roll into a group with heavy casualties. Therefore, Liao cavalry cannot dodge in time, so they can only be divided into several groups. They have to keep moving forward when they see the road , rushed into the formation.
After the Liao cavalry entered the battle, there were human walls and high shields on both sides. The Liao cavalry slashed around and had little effect. The Song infantry suffered few casualties. The Liao cavalry rushed for a long time and saw the Song cavalry behind the Song infantry. At that time, the Song infantry general shouted: "Crossbow | Arrows, let go!" A large number of infantry behind the shields on both sides took the crossbow | arrows behind them, and shot and killed tens of thousands of Liao cavalry who had nowhere to hide in the formation.
Crossbow | Arrows are powerful and accurate when shooting at close range.Between the phalanx and the phalanx, there are high shields on the edges, and they are not afraid of shooting their own people. The cavalry rides on horseback, standing high, like a target, and it is very easy to shoot with crossbow|arrows.The Song infantry shot and killed the Liao cavalry for a long time, and the Liao cavalry suffered heavy losses. They barely ran to the end of the infantry phalanx. Those few Liao cavalrymen faced tens of thousands of Song army cavalry.
After more than half of the cavalry rushed into the Song infantry phalanx, Yelu Hezhuo felt that something was wrong, and urgently stopped half of the cavalry not to continue charging, and it was still saved.He also ordered: "Infantry against infantry, let me go!" The Liao infantry marched to the front of the Liao army's formation, and first shot a rain of arrows at the Song infantry phalanx. The formation changed, and several long square formations became a whole square formation, and the front army still erected its high shields.
The Liao infantry held their spears and wanted to rush forward to pierce the Song infantry's phalanx. The Song infantry fired arrows and shot one more shot. When all the Liao infantry reached the front of the phalanx, the Song phalanx burst into several passages in an instant. , the Song cavalry in the rear rushed out along the passage, and the charging Liao infantry fell to pieces, but the Song cavalry did not love to fight, and rushed directly to the tens of thousands of remaining Liao cavalry.The Daliao cavalry wanted to rush to fight, but they couldn't. Tens of thousands of Liao infantry were still blocking the front, unable to charge. Cheng Wang Yelu Hezhuo was so anxious that he could only order: "The whole army of cavalry is ready to charge!"
After all the Song cavalry rushed out of the phalanx, the infantry phalanx joined together again, and a human wall and high shield were erected in front of the formation again.The infantry of the Liao Army couldn't enter the Song infantry phalanx, but was rushed by the Song cavalry who broke out of the formation, which was quite miserable.
Tens of thousands of Song cavalrymen had two jars and two large cloth bags hanging under their horse bellies. When the front army was about to rush out of the Liao infantry, the cavalry general who rushed to the front sent a signal to the air. He broke the two jars in his belly and threw them off the horse, and at the same time threw the two big cloth bags off the horse.After that, all the Song cavalry did not continue to move forward to attack the Liao cavalry, but turned to the sides and killed out of the tens of thousands of Liao army infantry who were rushed.
Seeing that the Liao cavalry hadn't waited for the Song cavalry, the Song cavalry ran to both sides, and could only stand there stupidly, not knowing what this meant, neither rushing nor not rushing.While hesitating, the general of the Song infantry phalanx shouted: "Shoot the arrow!"
A burst of rockets wrapped in tarpaulins on the arrows were fired in unison, and tens of thousands of Liao army infantry instantly burned into a sea of flames.The two pots under the bellies of tens of thousands of cavalrymen in Song Dynasty were fierce fire oil, and the two large cloth bags were also rags and cotton wool soaked in oil.
Liao's [-] infantry were all buried in the flames, and the Song infantry phalanx fired arrows all over the sky, making the battlefield miserable.It was the end of summer at this time, and the south wind was blowing, and the fire rushed towards the cavalry of the Liao army. The scorching heat wave became stronger and stronger, forcing the cavalry of the Liao army to retreat.The Song cavalry, who were retreating to both sides of the battle formation, quickly surrounded the remaining tens of thousands of Liao cavalry regiments, forming a siege, attacking from the outside to the inside, the Liao cavalry were caught off guard for a while, and suffered heavy losses
Cheng Wang Yelu Hezhuo saw that something was wrong, he immediately ordered the Liao cavalry to rush out, and asked the lieutenant next to him, "Who is the commander of this battle?"
The lieutenant general panicked: "The last general doesn't know, he hasn't shown up yet!"
Yelu Hezhuo asked: "You are a veteran, do you think it is Ming Ruiran?"
The lieutenant general said: "It doesn't look like it, it's more ruthless than Ming Ruiran, oh my lord, it doesn't matter who is the commander-in-chief of the Song Army now, you have to think about breaking through with the whole army!"
The Khitan iron cavalry really lived up to their reputation. The Song army cavalry killed a lot when the Liao iron cavalry was caught off guard, but after the Liao iron cavalry reacted, both sides were injured in the fight.When it was time to fight to Shen, the sky was still dark, and the cavalry of the Song Dynasty failed to encircle and suppress, and the cavalry of the Liao Dynasty failed to break through the siege, and the battle was stalemate.
However, at this time, on the battlefield, the fire had receded, and the Liao infantry was almost dead and wounded. Tens of thousands of infantry in the Song phalanx rushed forward. He was completely killed, and there was no one left to breathe. The Liao army only had [-] cavalry surrounding King Cheng.
Yelu Hezhuo didn't want to fight anymore, he just wanted to run, and ordered a small group of Song cavalry to resist the encirclement, and the rest gathered together to break through to the north!
The Song infantry threw down their bows and arrows, carried the crossbow behind their backs, held the shield in one hand and the knife hanging from their waist in the other, and charged towards the surrounded Liao cavalry.Those who shoot people with crossbows, those who use shields and knives to chop horses' legs, they can do whatever they want. The Liao cavalry were anxious to break out of the siege, but they saw tens of thousands of Song infantry pressing over with their crossbows and knives. , even more flustered.
At this time, the coach Ming Xiaoyang was standing on the city wall watching the battle, eating while watching, very leisurely.None of the generals participated in the battle. According to Ming Xiaoyang's order, they all stood on the city wall to watch, and those who went down were only the leading lieutenants who could read the battle flag.
Zheng Ning and Luo Yuning watched the battle for a day, and were amazed. In this battle, the Liao army was beaten so badly.
Luo Zhan turned his head and said, "Brother Ming, why are you still eating?"
Ming Xiaoyang said: "Why don't you eat? Didn't you see that the siege over there is not going well? How can I go to battle and kill the enemy if I don't eat? The Liao army has no time to eat, so I can't be hungry too?"
Luo Zhan nodded and said, "That makes sense, huh? You want to go out? You have sent all you can, and there are still [-] defenders in the city. Do you want to take some out?"
Ming Xiaoyang smiled and said: "No, it's enough for me to go out by myself. There's no need for more, the soldiers outside are already enough."
Luo Yuning asked, "What are you doing out by yourself?"
Ming Xiaoyang said: "Now the cavalry of the Liao army are brave and our army cannot attack by force. What if I enter the center of the Liao army alone and kill the commander? Most of them will be defeated, and our army will encircle and suppress them even faster."
Zheng Ning said: "No, you will surely die if you rush into the tens of thousands of Liao army's cavalry alone! Absolutely not!"
Luo Yuning said anxiously: "Nephew, I know that you have great martial arts skills, but it is absolutely impossible for one person to fight against tens of thousands. If you have something good or bad, how can I explain it to your father!"
Ming Xiaoyang suddenly said seriously: "My life is my life, and my Song soldiers also have parents. If I can kill the commander of the Liao army as soon as possible, my Song army may lose tens of thousands of deaths. Now there are still Liao cavalry soldiers. About [-], if they rise up to resist, by the time they are all killed, our army will have at least tens of thousands of casualties. The situation of the battle has always been variable. If they escape, tens of thousands of Liao cavalry will come back again in the future Kill us how many Song soldiers."
Huo Tong said, "I'll go with you!"
Ming Xiaoyang said: "You can't go, you will die!"
Huo Tong said: "Even if you die, you have to follow the young master!"
Ming Xiaoyang said: "Okay, huh? Look over there!" As soon as Huo Tong turned his head, he was slapped unconscious by Ming Xiaoyang's palm, and said to General Luo: "Take care of him for me, don't let him enter the room alone. Liao Army."
Luo Yuning said: "Not only him, but even you!"
When Ming Xiaoyang saw that the infantry had slowly infiltrated the edge of the Liao army, he walked down the city wall, holding the Yanyue Saber, and rode Tianyou to charge towards the Liao army alone.
Zheng Ning was stunned, Luo Yuning was about to go crazy, Luo Zhan was dumbfounded, and the three of them stood on the city wall at a loss, unable to stop them.
Not long after, Ming Xiaoyang, who was dressed in white robe and silver armor, entered the Liao army alone. He played the Yanyue knife in his hand superbly. He used the secret skill "Full Moon" knife technique several times in a row, killing a path of blood in the blink of an eye. Liao Shuai is getting closer and closer.
The five generals guarding Yelu Hezhuo seemed to be unkind, so they all rushed towards Ming Xiaoyang and surrounded him.Ming Xiaoyang looked around, there were tens of thousands of Liao soldiers and Liao generals around him, but not a single Song soldier could be seen.
Luo Yuning was so anxious that his fists were almost shattered, and he hurriedly waved the command flag to rescue the Liao army, so as to save Ming Xiaoyang's life.Looking sideways, the command flag was gone... It collapsed in an instant.
Liao generals are generals after all, not soldiers.Ming Xiaoyang could see Commander Liao, but couldn't move forward for a while, so he had to fight these Liao generals.Several Liao generals could not take down Ming Xiaoyang with their joint efforts, so they could only forcefully drag Ming Xiaoyang not to move towards Yelu Hezhuo.Ming Xiaoyang was also in a hard fight.
The lieutenant beside Yelu Hezhuo said: "My lord, look at the helmet tassel on this man's head! He is the commander in chief!"
Yelu Hezhuo said: "A teenage coach? Still so brave? What does he want to do here alone?!"
The lieutenant said: "He wants to behead the general!"
Another officer ran over and said, "We found it, he is Ming Ruiran's son! This man must die!"
Hearing this, Yelu Hezhuo shouted, "Kill him quickly! Great reward! Strong Crossbow Camp, hurry up and aim!"
Ming Xiaoyang felt that something was wrong, he had to make a quick decision, and if the fight continued, it would be even more troublesome.In an instant, cold arrows kept shooting over.
Ming Xiaoyang used the Yanyue Knife to use "Full Moon" frequently, while tearing off Ming Le's white snake bone long whip, "Full Moon" and "Controlling the Dragon" came out together, and finally killed two generals, and the other three were good at martial arts of.
Luo Yuning said: "No, I have to go in and save him!"
Zheng Ning said: "Oh, General Luo, can you go in? You were killed before you got there!"
At this moment, Luo Yuning was slapped heavily on the shoulder, looked back, and said in shock: "His Royal Highness King Ning???"
Zheng Ning didn't know King Ning, so when he heard it, he immediately stepped forward and bowed: "His Royal Highness King Ning!"
Zhao Anchen rode the Dawan BMW and ran for two days and one night, and he was almost exhausted by now.Seeing this, Luo Yuning yelled: "Quick! Water! Rice! Quick!" The soldiers went to get it immediately, and Zhao Anchen sat on the ground and asked how the battle was going?
Luo Yuning said: "The commander-in-chief commanded well, everything went well, and this battle will definitely be won."
Zhao Anchen breathed a sigh of relief, took the water and rice, and wolfed down the meal.He asked, "Where's Ming Huan?"
Luo Yuning glanced at Ming Xiaoyang, who was fighting in the Liao army, and said, "Ah, I have led the troops to battle, there is nothing unusual."
Luo Zhan said: "Brother Ming..."
Luo Yuning stretched out his hand to his son's waist and pinched him fiercely, interrupting Luo Zhan's words.
Zhao Anchen said: "That's good." He fell asleep on the ground in an instant.
After an hour, Ming Xiaoyang killed all the generals who besieged him, and was surrounded by a group of Liao soldiers, who continued to fight and used "Feng Yin" to guard against the cold arrows that came from time to time.Before leaving the city, all the food I ate was exhausted, and my body was a little tired.The Liao army started the crowd tactics, and all the surrounding Liao troops gathered towards Ming Xiaoyang, forming a typhoon eye in the Liao army.
Luo Yuning looked terrified, and almost fainted several times during this hour.At this time, the shoulder was slapped heavily again, and looking back, it was a group of Bai family's elite guards, who were overjoyed immediately and asked, "Where do you come from? Can you join the battle?"
Jingwei said: "The 30 of us came from nearby after receiving a letter from the master Feige. The other Jingwei who protected King Ning from the capital, like King Ning, were exhausted and paralyzed below. We can join the battle, if The young master needs it."
Luo Yuning said: "Okay!"
Jingwei asked, "Where is my young master?"
Luo Zhan couldn't wait to say: "It's there! A little white among the ten thousand armies!"
Jingwei was taken aback and asked, "How long has the young master been in?"
Luo Yuning said: "It's almost two hours."
Jingwei shouted: "What? It's almost the limit if you fight like this!"
Zheng Ning said: "I just played against a few generals, and it was even more intense than now. I guess it has reached its limit."
Jingwei said: "Our young master will die!" Turning around and rushing down the city wall, thirty Jingwei mounted their horses and went straight to the Liao army to rescue the young master.
Luo Yuning felt a little better when he saw a group of flying cavalry in white.Just as he wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, he choked the breath in his throat again. Behind Bai's Jingwei, a white robe and silver armor appeared!When Luo Yuning turned around, he found that King Ning, who was sleeping dead on the ground, was gone!
Both Luo Yuning and Zheng Ning were so frightened that they almost lost their breath.Luo Yuning already felt the moment his head was clicked, and touched his neck wanting to cry without tears.
Ming Xiaoyang was very tired, his behavior became sluggish, and he was still fighting. He was very close to Liao Shuai. Yelu Hezhuo was frightened by Ming Xiaoyang, his face turned pale, and he turned around on the horse and wanted to run. , stepped on the ground suddenly, flew into the sky against "Feishuang", and went straight to Yelu Hezhuo, suddenly an arrow shot on his calf, Ming Xiaoyang shook his body, gritted his teeth and stabbed Yelu Hezhuo with "Controlling the Dragon" Yelu Hezhuo fell off his horse, Ming Xiaoyang also fell, and was surrounded by a group of Liao soldiers in an instant, fighting again.Bai's Jingwei entered the Liao army and got closer and closer to Ming Xiaoyang.
The father and son of the Luo family and General Zheng Ning saw on the city wall that the elite guards of the Bai clan were so brave, they tore a hole in the cavalry of the Liao army, and rushed in without any effort, heading towards Ming Xiaoyang.
Zheng Ning asked: "Who are this group of white-clothed soldiers? Everyone is as brave as a commander-in-chief?!"
Luo Yuning said: "They are far worse than the commander in chief, but they can be called brave. These people are the private soldiers of our commander in chief, the Bai family's Jingwei."
Zheng Ning sighed: "Amazing!"
Ming Xiaoyang reluctantly chopped off the arrow tail on his leg, tried his best to fight, and chased Yelu Hezhuo at the same time. With a move of "full moon", Yanyue's long knife was thrown away, driving away a circle of Liao soldiers, and the knife hadn't returned yet. Ming Xiaoyang leaned over and sprinted out under the knife track, and another move of "Controlling the Dragon" locked Yelu Hezhuo's calf with a snake bone whip. Xiao Yanggang wanted to dodge, but suddenly his calf hurt, he bled profusely, became dizzy for a while, and couldn't dodge...
I saw that the Yanyue knife that I just threw out and gave up taking back was used by someone to use the "full moon" move to instantly kill a circle of Liao soldiers who surrounded him. This person caught the turning Yanyue knife and stood beside Ming Xiaoyang.Ming Xiaoyang didn't care about who was coming, and immediately pulled the snake bone whip in his left hand, dragging Yelu Hezhuo to his eyes, pulled out the sword with his right hand, and pierced Yelu Hezhuo's head with a blow of "Guan Ri". chest.He also fell to the ground, and vaguely saw a person guarding him against the crazy counterattack of the surrounding Liao army.Ming Xiaoyang lay on the ground panting for a few breaths, closed his eyes and shouted three times: "Commander Liao is dead, the Liao army is defeated!" The Liao army fighting around turned their heads one after another, seeing Yelu Hezhuo who died on the ground, suddenly In a panic, the Song army took the opportunity to attack the Liao army.
Ming Xiaoyang opened his eyes and saw clearly the person who had just saved him countless times, and said in surprise: "Zhao Yi!?"
Someone in the Liao army shouted: "No matter what happens today,
