Mi Xin can't answer.

In fact, Song Jiu was not completely guessed. Yelu Xiu Ge asked for peace to delay time, but the entire strategy of Liao Kingdom changed.

The Song army was very fast this time. In front, Zhao Kuangyi said that he wanted to fight the Northern Expedition with the He family and his son. The three armies behind him started to attack the Liao Kingdom and indeed caught him off guard. Therefore, Yelu Xiu Ge hurried in Youzhou City, avoiding the sharpness of the Song army and trying to delay time, so that the three armies would first repel the weak Zhongxi Song army and then come to rescue Youzhou.

Then because the incompetence of the Song army was actually Cao Bin's incompetence, the strategy was changing, and he decided to let Yelu Xizhen go to Weizhou and Sanggan River to snipe. Yes, it was a sniper. He only delayed the second army of Zhongxi Road and prevented them from reaching Youzhou, and successfully joined forces with the three armies.

He mobilized the main force to Youzhou, and even Xiao Yanyan and the young emperor of Liao came to the front line in person, and they even brought a woman...

Then 100,000 soldiers and horses rushed towards Yanshan.

Darkness is coming!

...

In the heavy rain, countless cavalry of the Liao Kingdom scattered into small teams, active in the Zhuozhou to Qigou Pass area.

Yelu Xiu Ge finally showed his fierce teeth.

Because Cao Bin was harassed by Yelu Xiuge, he placed a lot of food and supplies in Qigou Pass, and the army quickly moved forward to Zhuozhou. It should be said that there was nothing wrong. He placed it in Qigou Pass, not in Xiongzhou, not far from Zhuozhou, and could send troops to escort at any time. Moreover, hundreds of thousands of troops arrived in Zhuozhou, and Zhuozhou City could not accommodate it.

However, this is how Yelu Xiu Ge cut off the food channel.

Even Cao Bin sent fifty messengers to the rear, only two of them returned safely.

Something big is going to happen.

"Report!" A light cavalry hurriedly broke into the central army's tent, turned over and dismounted and shouted.

"Reported that the Empress Dowager of Liao and the Emperor's Imperial Palace have arrived in Tuoluokou (near Nankou Town, Beijing), with 100,000 soldiers."

"Reported that the Liao army rested here for two days to accumulate energy, and at the same time, the army behind them rushed forward continuously."

The chief generals and the coach were discussing what to do. When they heard the information that the scout risked his life to inquire about the information they came back, they were all stunned.

Even with 100,000 Liao troops, the troops were still less than those of the Song army. Since the two countries fought, the Song army has won many times with less. But the situation is different. This is in Zhuozhou, when the Liao army defended the country, and the morale is high. The soldiers will be more enthusiastic. The fatal thing is that when waiting for reinforcements coming from the rear, the troops who came in advance received a good rest.

Let’s look at Song Jun again?

As Song Jiu said, if you struggle all the way, you will be in a state of trouble and have low morale.

Then look at the terrain. It is not too far from Zhuozhou to Qigou Pass, two or three roads. However, this trip, with a lot of supplies, food, and a large number of untrained civilians, how many miles can you travel in a day?

Tuoluokou is not far from the Deshengkou of Yelu Xizhen's army in the Battle of Gaoliang River. It is one of the throats of Yanshan that leads to the north. Not to mention retreating from Ping'an of Zhuozhou to the rear, even before retreating to Qigou Pass, the Liao army might have caught up.

Cui Yanjin said angrily: "This army ran to death."

He blamed Cao Bin. If Cao Bin hadn't made a mistake, lost the food and grass, and then withdrew back to Xiongzhou to eat. Then he spent more than 20 days from Xiongzhou to come back to Zhuozhou, which caused him to be exhausted. It was because of his troops and the power of a battle. Now he is fighting.

Cui Yanjin said again: "Mr. Song, we will listen to you."

Cao Bin doesn't work, he has to change people. Of course he won't let himself go, so he suggested that Song Jiu be promoted to the top and turn the tide.

Song Jiu smiled bitterly and said, "Everyone works together."

Whoever makes a decision at this time will be unlucky afterwards. However, Cui Yanjin did not intend to cheat Song Jiu. Song Jiu's previous predictions made Cui Yanjin feel a lucky mentality.

Song Jiu was also afraid to take responsibility. But when he was sick and became a waste of ointment, let alone him, I am afraid that even Yelu Xiu Ge could not have a good idea if he changed his position with Yelu Xiu Ge.

But as Cui Yanjin said, if it was a big defeat, it would not be the Liao army defeated the Song army, but Cao Bin defeated these hundreds of thousands of soldiers.

"Everyone, the situation is critical, so let go of prejudice." Song Jiu said again.

The big tent was quiet, but the rain was getting worse and worse, gradually becoming a torrential momentum.

Everyone looked at the heavy rain outside, and suddenly their eyes showed joy.

A good time to retreat.

As the heavy rain fell, the power of Liao cavalry and bows and arrows would decrease severely.

But no one said it.

This withdrawal means that all the plans formulated by Zhao Kuangyi have failed, and whoever mentions them will be responsible.

Finally, Cao Bin sighed and said, "Get away."

Then he said, "I ordered the three armies to withdraw from Qigou Pass because the Liao army harassed the rear and there was not much food in the army."

No general said anything.

This is probably the only thing Cao Bin did right in the army. The first thing he said was to withdraw his troops in short supply, rather than fearing war. The court would not blame him. Secondly, the withdrawal of troops in short supply, and the soldiers below did not know the truth, so he would not panic. Otherwise, the Liao army had not arrived yet, and the three armies were in chaos. In a chaos of hundreds of thousands of troops, no one could take it, and it would be a defeat without fighting. No one dared to bear this responsibility.

Cao Bin looked at Lu Bin again and said, "General Lu, I will give you ten thousand soldiers, you can guard Zhuozhou City."

Lu Bin was stunned and immediately said: "Zhuozhou is deep in the northern border, with no reinforcements outside and no resources inside. Dingji is lost, and there is no profit to defend it. If you return to the army now, you must form a formation and leave. With a battle of one battle, it will be more profitable than to defend it."

We are not stupid either. Zhuozhou is on the sharp corner and the army is alone here. How to defend?

Cao Bin did not dare to force the order, otherwise Lu Bin would quarrel and the news would be transmitted into the army, and the consequences would be serious. So he thought about it and asked Lu Bin to lead the people in the city to move from Langshan to the Song Dynasty.

The idea seemed to be good. During the battle of Gaolianghe, Song Jiu ordered that many people in Zhuozhou be plundered and brought back to the Song Dynasty. These people may not have gone to the path of happiness from then on. In recent years, the people of Liao have suffered, and the people of Hebei and Hedong have suffered. But there were still some people who had not taken them away that time. Later, the Liao Kingdom could not silently regard such a large area as empty, and migrated some people to come.

Cao Bin's intention is very simple, this is also a wealth. Will Yelu Xiu Ge save him? He must be saved. Once he saves his troops, he will be divided, and then the entire army will be safely withdrawn to the Song Dynasty.

Lu Bin is sad, why is it still him?

Maybe Cao Bin is right, but he will be more dangerous than staying in Zhuozhou City.

However, this time, what excuses can he find to refuse?

The rain is densely filled with underground, the dark clouds in the sky are like mountains and devils, and the raindrops are almost unable to open their eyes.

Song Jiu walked out of the tent, gave Yang Ye, Liu Zhixin and Fu Zhaoshou a wink, and then came to Shi Gui in a low voice, saying, "General Shi, try to protect your weapons. As for food, take it if you can, and don't take it if you can."

Shi Gui nodded.

The food is too bulky, and if the Liao Kingdom chases it, it will become a burden. Although the cost of transporting this food to Zhuozhou has increased dozens of times.

In fact, he doesn't want to take away the weapons.

The most important thing now is to move forward lightly.

The fact is best to move forward lightly. All the food, grass, supplies, and even tens of thousands of civilians will be thrown together. Then you can reach Qigou Pass in more than a day, Baigou in three days, and at most five days, you can reach Xiongzhou City. Once you arrive in Xiongzhou City, then the right time, place, and people are all on the Song Dynasty.

But who dares to say it?

Before he could fight, he left tens of thousands of people behind. So wait for Zhao Kuangyi to issue an edict to dismember the five horses.

There is another way, which is to forge edicts. Now everyone is tired of war, so they can only forge edicts, saying that the emperor issued an edict to stop the Northern Expedition, and then the morale of the military and civilians would come up together and withdraw with great strides. However, some people dare to change Zhao Kuangyi's plan. Do they dare to correct this edict? That is to stop the Northern Expedition.

So in a heavy rain, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians slowly retreated to Qigou Pass, and people were cursing themselves from time to time.

They don’t know the truth, so it’s hard to understand. Even if they make mistakes in command, they have to choose a good weather to retreat. In addition, the military judges scolded, beaten and urged them all the way, and almost the entire army complained.

Song Jiu couldn't care about this anymore. He shouted Fu Zhaoshou: "Erlang, can I have what I asked you to do?"

"I have made a promise, my subordinates, my subordinates, and Zhixin's subordinates. As long as they obey the transfer, I will reward each of them with twenty pieces of cotton, some money and silk, as well as soldiers who are trained and have good military disciplines. I will also make a promise."

"If you obey the command and fight brave people, each person will be rewarded with ten taels of silver, ten pieces of silk, and fifty kilograms of tea after returning. But if you don't obey the command, you will have nothing after returning. Remember, and then quietly tell them to each instructor. If they do well, I will use my power to reward them after returning. They are the most important things."

"Okay, if you have Jiulang's words, you should be worth a million yuan." Fu Zhaoshou went down.

Song Jiu quietly sent an order to ask Liu Zhixin and Shi Gui to lead their subordinates to approach the front quietly.

Yang Ye is moving forward, and his subordinates are at the forefront. If the truth is put aside, the most dangerous place ahead. Yelu Xiu Ge kept harassing him and fighting in front, but in fact, the safest place ahead is now.

Amid the screams and scolding, the army slowly advanced.

It was only on the third day that I could barely arrive at Qigou Pass.

However, Yelu Xiu Ge had already rushed over with the 100,000 reinforcements from the Mobei brought by Xiao Yanyan.

When the Song army saw the Liao army rushing over, it was in chaos, but at this moment, there were not many soldiers who really wanted to escape.

Almost all the elite soldiers from all over the country were here together. Some asked for weapons to fight, while others resisted under the organization. However, due to chaos, the order could not be issued and the defense measures were not organized at all. This included the crossbowmen on the periphery just shooting arrows aimlessly.

A big defeat is coming.

First, General Cai Yu, as soon as the two armies confronted each other, he changed his clothes and fled. The vanguard Xue Jizhao was also clamoring to retreat. The two generals took the lead in greed for life and fearing death, which caused the Song army to lose their fighting spirit immediately.

Cui Yanjin and Mi Xin looked at it and it seemed that if they were not done well, they would be wiped out. We were famous all forever, but we would not carry this black bag for Cao Bin. Seeing that the Song army was resisting the attack of the Liao army, they led their subordinates to leave the main force and flee from another road to the border of the Song Dynasty.

Cao Bin turned his head and saw that he also became shameless. With the help of the night falling, he ordered his brave general, Yuhou of the Divine Guard, to protect his safety and escape to the Jumahe River.

Once the main general fled, he did not take the overall situation like last time. Pan Mei and others took charge of the overall situation, and the three armies immediately collapsed.

But just when the three armies were in chaos, Song Jiu had already gathered Yang Ye, Fu Zhaoshou, Liu Zhixin and Shi Gui's subordinates together.

In fact, the few men had nearly 30,000 soldiers, but at this time there were only more than 10,000. If Song Jiu had not offered a sky-high reward, there would have been more soldiers who escaped.

With the help of a little torch, Song Jiu looked ahead. Yelu Xiuge had already tore open the Song army's defensive front with his troops and began to harvest. Looking at the rear, the back was Jimahe, which was strictly said to be Laishui.

After passing Laishui, Dongyizhou was controlled by the Song Dynasty. Here, the Song Dynasty successively built defensive fortresses such as Suicheng, Mancheng, Rongcheng, etc. Maybe it would be safe to cross the river. However, the Song army was wearing armor, and most of the soldiers came from the north. They didn't know the nature of the water, and they sank in the river. In the blink of an eye, countless dead bodies emerged from the downstream, almost filling the river. Because of heavy rain, the river water was strong. In the blink of an eye, the Song army rushed to the downstream. Then, the soldiers and civilians behind rushed forward and ignored the danger, regardless of the danger, and continued to rush down the Juma River. The sound of struggle, asking for help, shouting, and crying sounded.

Song Jiu said: "Li Jixuan, pass on the message for me."

"Here."

"Brothers, I am Song Jiu."

Of course, this is nonsense. How many people don’t know Song Jiu.

However, most soldiers looked ahead and behind, and their bodies were creepy. However, now because Song Jiu was one-up, there were more than 10,000 people, and they wanted to calm down a little.
To be continued...
