Zhao Kuangyin said: "Since they are defeated, you can go back to the account and rest."

"As for your order." Dang Jin laughed and returned to the tent.

The others watched him go in and were sweating together. What kind of face can they say when they were dressed like this? Reckless man, Zhao Pu almost beat his chest and stamped his feet.

Zhao Kuangyin shouted again: "Sweep the battlefield."

Almost all of Yang Ye's men were shot dead, and the armor that should be stripped, as well as bows and arrows, and the bodies were buried. Song Jiu couldn't help but look at the tall Taiyuan city, where the northern Han soldiers patrol endlessly. The war scene was cruel, and he was going to experience it again.

Zhao Kuangyin also ordered the Fourth Battalion to strengthen its vigilance, not thinking that if the Northern Han Dynasty was defeated repeatedly, he would not resist stubbornly.

The fourth camps gradually became established.

It is the southwest wind, and the limitations of the balloon can be seen. You cannot go up against the wind, but can only take off in the south. However, it will play some role. The soldiers waved small flags in the hanging blue to command. In fact, as the balloons rise, many soldiers in the city were frustrated.

This is the powerful Song Dynasty, which not only has brave soldiers, but also has advanced weapons.

Then the Fulu crossbow and tiger cannon were moved out.

Song Jiu watched carefully and improved a little, but there was little change. It was not that the craftsmen had no innovation ability, but mainly that they had not understood its principles thoroughly, so they could not come up with more correct methods of improvement. Song Jiu handed over their technology and if they were placed in Song Jiu's hands to improve it, it might have better results than the current ones. However, Song Jiu might not have so much time. Or after a few decades, batches of students came out and these principles were mastered by more people, and then it would be improved quickly. But at that time, more advanced weapons might be developed.

But Zhao Kuangyin liked them very much when he saw them.

Especially if it can be assembled, it means it can be transported and sent to various battlefields. This time, a total of 1,000 Fulu crossbows and 500 tiger cannons were brought. The number could not be greater. It was not that money could not keep up, but that there were not so many people who operated it.

The Song Dynasty's first weapon was activated. Countless powerful crossbows flew towards the city. Most of them were lost. Once hit, it would be very miserable. Some directly shot their heads. But it was not as good as tiger cannons. Some large tiger cannons could throw more than a dozen stones of stone bullets. If they were hit, they would be turned into a meat sauce. One by one, the huge rocks fell down, and the sound was like thunder.

Zhao Pu forgot to feel uncomfortable at this time and said, "This weapon is too powerful, so please keep it confidential."

"Zhao Xianggong. It is just the beginning. If the academy develops normally in a few decades and there are many students helping me, I will definitely study some of the weapons played in the pictures for me. That kind of weapons are truly powerful weapons." Song Jiudao. The main reason is that he does not understand weapons, including bulky artillery. If he wants to understand it, he believes that it will not be more difficult than steam engines. He does not understand it. He has to use money to smash it down. This use of money will be amazing numbers. In addition, it is the casting technology. Under the leadership of the steel supervisor, he started some real casting, and the technology will gradually develop in the future. But this time will be very long. It still cannot solve the nomadic people. Unless real artillery and rifles appear, Song Jiu has no confidence.

The Northern Han soldiers on the top of the city were smashed and turned around, and there was no way to escape. Especially the difference between this kind of stone thrower, it can make some adjustments. If it is a small stone bomb, it can be launched into the center of the city. Zhao Kuangyin shouted: "Boom me, bomb for three days. Call again to surrender in the city."

Song Jiu shook his head silently as he heard the screams of the people in the city.

Zhao Kuangyin glanced at him, laughing and crying.

This catapult is too powerful. It can be said that it is the most powerful long-range attack weapon of this era.

One huge rock after another was transported down from Longshan and hit the city again.

A day of hardship in Taiyuan City passed. Before dawn the next day, He Jiyun asked for a light cavalry, saying that the Khitans were divided into troops to support him. A powerful brigade arrived first and wanted to enter Taiyuan from Shiling Pass. Shiling Pass was in Yangwu and was the gateway for the two states of Xin Dai to enter Taiyuan. Before Zhao Kuangyin's army reached, he sent He Jiyun to deploy for Shiling Pass and stationed here to prevent Khitans from coming to support him. However, the troops were not large. Zhao Kuangyin summoned He Jiyun into the camp and gave him a strategy.

It is really easy to be his subordinate. Zhao Da said how to fight and how to fight. As long as there is no big mistake, he will basically not fail.

He also gave thousands of elite cavalry and said, "Tomorrow is noon, I'm waiting for the good news."

Song Jiu was a little stupid at the side, so he asked stupidly: "Your Majesty, Shiling Pass is nearly two hundred miles away, and the Khitan army is here, how can you get a good news tomorrow at noon?"

The time is wrong. He Jijun immediately led his troops to leave and arrived at noon at least. Be prepared to prepare. The war will start tomorrow morning. Can the Khitans be defeated in the blink of an eye? The Khitans fell into the Northern Han army? Otherwise, there would be no time to send the news, even if they were to fight for one or two hours, they would not be delivered until the afternoon. Isn’t this a embarrassing person?

"Song Jiu, you're fine these days, so you can go with He Qing."

"ah."

"He Qing also brought a hundred Fulu crossbows during this trip, and he needs your guidance." In fact, he didn't want his guidance. Seeing the kindness of Song Jiu's wife, Zhao Kuangyin deliberately honed him. There was no one who could not die in a war.

"Your Majesty, I don't understand military affairs."

"Are you retreating?"

"Look, I'm going." Song Jiu had no choice but to follow He Jiyun to Shiling Pass. It was just northeast of Taiyuan, north of Yangqu County and south of Xinzhou City.

When Song Jiu arrived at Shiling Pass, the scouts on the front line continued to deliver the information. The Khitans were coming soon and they would arrive in the evening at most. He Jiyun looked at the information. Song Jiu was doing nothing and took Hu Daguo to look at Shiling Pass. It was a path of intestinal slightest path. Because of the relationship between the Khitan and the Northern Han Dynasty, there was no checkpoint here. He Jiyun came late and had no time to repair it. He only built a temporary defense camp. Maybe he could defend it, but Zhao Da wanted to defeat it.

I also looked at the steep mountains on both sides, and some of them were so steep that they could not climb.

He Jiyun discussed with his son He Chengrui and his general Kong Shouzheng. He Chengrui was He Menggao and was also a yamen in the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of Song Jiu. He also drank Song Jiu's wedding banquet. He was also a big official. Among the generals, none of them had his high official position except He Jiyun. Therefore, He Jiyun invited Song Jiu to discuss. Don't look at it, everyone thinks of a solution.

Zhao Kuangyin's method was to fight. He could not defend himself. He could defend one place. He would be defeated if he had few troops. He would not be the only way to Shiling Pass. Therefore, he was afraid of giving in first. On the enemy's half-cross the pass, the cavalry broke out from the mountains and forests. He used the narrowness of the mountain road. He could not take into account all the Khitans in both directions, so he transferred the strongest cavalry battalion. This is the general direction, and everyone must discuss the arrangements for details.

Song Jiu asked: "General He, what if he sent ambush troops to ambush the ridges on both sides of the Pass Road?"

"That's best, but the enemy is not a fool, and he will also send scouts to observe. If he sees an ambush, he is afraid of being in a hurry. If he does not chase after him, Xu Er enters the pass and Xu Er chases, the entire half-way ambush will fail."

"This may not be necessary." Song Jiudao. He doesn't understand how to fight, but he doesn't know how to climb mountains, but not many of these people can surpass him. He looked around and said, "General He. First, send scouts to patrol all over the place and expel all suspicious people."

"Don't worry, you can't even see a ghost around you."

"Then I'll take you to climb the mountain."

Song Jiu found some tools, and there were many steep mountains on both sides. He chose a peak, used the tools to climb up with a rope, and then put down the rope. He let the soldiers climb up one by one, and the cavalry were reluctant to leave them. But half of them were infantry, so he asked them to go up. He also brought some dry food, water, weapons, stones, Fulu crossbows, and many green vines to teach them how to disguise. When the Khitans came, they covered the green vines on their bodies, and the peaks were steep. The Khitan scouts could not see the people, so they would not pay attention. Could it be that the Khitan scouts dared to climb up one mountain after another and lifted up the ancient vines to observe?

Genghis Khan's Yuanmeng scout would not do this either.

He Jijun was very happy when he pulled soldiers from one mountain to another and said, "This is a great victory."

It was dark and the ambushers were almost lifted up together. The cavalry retreated, and Kong Shouzheng was ahead. When the Khitans came tomorrow morning, he would take his men to take them back and escape. Song Jiu, He Jiyun and thousands of cavalry were ambushing in the mountains and forests in the south.

There was nothing to say all night, the sky was about to dawn, and they all opened their eyes wide and had no tents to sleep in the forest. Fortunately, the weather was getting hot and it was not cold at night.

He Chengrui said: "Jiulang, how much can Hezhou be divided this year?"

The soldiers around them leaned over their ears and listened curiously.

"I don't know, it depends on the fact that there will be more stocks entering the first place, but there will be less stocks in the last year. Anyway, you won't have fewer ones."

"If I had known, I would have bought more shares of the contract."

"I thought you would like to join the stock market and rack your brains. If you don't believe it, you are fine. If you enter early, you will gradually dilute later, and your returns will become less and less."

“How do you calculate the investment this year?”

"Those who invest in internal digestion this year will not raise funds for external stocks, they will only raise funds for colleges."

"Academy."

"I will pay back the academy if I don't give it back. I won't use money that year. If I leave it to the academy, the ministers in the court will not argue about the expenses. This will be donated by some kind-hearted households. Unfortunately, I came to the front line and didn't know what the capital is like."

Song Jiu said dejectedly, his professionalism is not right. Isn’t it a pleasure to let him go to a battlefield?

While he was talking, the scout rushed from the south and reported: "The Khitans began to set off, with more than 10,000 cavalry."

The Song army still has a weak position in terms of numbers, but if they can succeed, they will become an advantage. Whether they can succeed depends on the following hours. But how can they deliver the victory to Taiyuan at noon?

Song Jiu couldn't help but tremble.

"Xiaojiu, you are not afraid of death, you are still afraid of war?" He Jijun said.

Song Jiu was in Bashu and his party, and everyone said that he was not afraid of death, but really was not afraid of death. Song Jiu was so scared that he was not very easy to answer. He said, "It has nothing to do with fear of death, I am afraid of the smell of blood."

"You guys play with the head as a ball, are you afraid of the smell of blood?"

What does that relationship have with me? I am a good citizen who grew up in peace. Song Jiu said nothing. Hu Da and Guo Da were on the side, but excitedly touched Park Dao, not knowing whether they would dare to go to the battlefield later.

The sun gradually rose, and the mountains and hills were covered with a layer of golden color.

He Chengrui was still talking about Hezhou with Song Jiu, but he was a little nervous.

A large number of Song soldiers who escaped from the front could be considered true escape. The Khitans were cavalrymen, and they would undoubtedly die if they escaped late. He Jijun shouted, "Prepare."
