Chapter 324
Zhong Shidao was silent.

Master Zhong died at the hands of Wang Lin, and the news spread to Taiyuan, Master Zhong was in great pain.

And the children of the Zhong family were filled with righteous indignation, clamoring every day to raise troops to kill the king and destroy Wang Lin.

Taiyuan prefect Zhang Xiaochun and his son Zhang Hao looked at each other, but didn't say anything.

Zhe Keqiu, the commander of soldiers and horses, exchanged a look with Yao Gu, but didn't say a word.

What else can they say about the family's personal enmity.

But the Western Army is the Western Army of the imperial court, how can it be reduced to a tool for personal revenge?
Zhong Shidao cast a majestic glance at his son and nephew.

Dan said: "Wang Lin is the king of Qi in the Song Dynasty. He is in charge of the affairs of the Privy Council and the title of Grand Master. In what name do we raise troops to attack him?"

"On the side of the Qing emperor? Today, the emperor of the Song Dynasty is still the emperor, and the prince is Zhao Gou, the ninth son of the official family. The foundation of the emperor and the Song Dynasty is still alive, and the righteousness of the court is still alive. We are soldiers and horses of the court. How can we use swords because of personal enmity?"

"I'm afraid that when our army rises, it will be designated as a rebellious army by the officials and the court. At that time, how should you wait? Are you going to rebel?"

"I don't agree with the division and the crown prince's plan.

But the teacher is determined to go his own way, and the commander-in-chief has no choice.

Now that the crown prince is defeated, Wang Lin is even more imposing.

He has 15 soldiers and horses under his command. Even if he is the commander of the Western Army, he may not be the opponent of the Qingzhou Army. "

"Stop mentioning this matter again. You must not abolish the public if you plant a family's personal enmity."

Zhong Shi's way of military law is like a mountain, once a word is said, even the children of the Zhong family dare not say more, otherwise they will have to practice military law.

Yao Gu, Zhang Xiaochun, Zhe Keqiu, Zhang Hao and others immediately bowed down: "Mr. Xiang is deeply aware of righteousness, takes the country as the most important thing, and has an open mind. The last general (lower official) and others all admire him!"

Zhang Xiaochun said again: "However, my lord, the official has received a secret report from Daizhou that there are a large number of good Khitan horses in captivity outside Yanmen Pass and in the east valley of Yingzhou. capture."

Zhong Shidao's eyes froze, and he jumped up: "Is this true?"

The generals were excited by hearing this, and even their breathing became short of breath.

War horse!What Song Dynasty lacks most now is war horses!

If a large number of good horses can be recruited into the Western Army, then the Western Army's power will skyrocket!
Yao Gu bowed and said: "My lord, it doesn't matter if it is a horse from the Liao people, the Jin people or the King of Qi, since it is outside the Yanmen pass, it is the horse of our western army! The last general asked to gallop through the Yanmen gate and go out to capture these horses Recharge for military use!"

Master Zhong's face was slightly excited, he pondered for a moment, waved his hands and said: "Zhong Wei, Yao Gu, you two will lead an army of five thousand, go to Yanmen, and take the horse back from the Liao territory at all costs, this commander will report it The imperial court, please give credit to the two of you!"

Yao Gu and Zhongwei bowed and took orders.

……

Let's say that Hebei is really determined.

Not long after Wang Lin led his army to bypass Zhending and head straight for the Liao border, Zhang Shuye also got the news.

Zhang Shuye smiled wryly in his heart, no wonder Wang Lin took the risk to lead an army into the Liao territory, so it was for the war horses!
All the generals of the Hebei army were excited and urged Zhang Shuye to quickly send troops northward for a share of the pie.

Zhang Shuye sneered and reprimanded: "Do you think our Hebei Army can defeat King Qi's [-] cavalry? If a large number of good horses can be returned to our Song Dynasty, whether they enter the Qingzhou Army or the Hebei Army, it will be the same. Fortunately for the country, how can our army be in conflict with the enemy now?"

The generals were speechless.

Mainly thinking of the invincible iron cavalry under Wang Lin's command.

They consciously sent troops to compete with Wang Lin, in addition to making fun of themselves, they were afraid they would still be taken advantage of by the Jin people.

Zhang Shuye was still a bit hesitant at first, but after hearing this report, he immediately issued a military order to gather all [-] troops from Hebei to gather on the front line of Yizhou, assuming a large army going north to attack Youyan.

……

Liao territory, Yingzhou.

To the east of Hunyuanchuan, in a wide and long valley.

The red sun hangs high, and the grass grows in this river valley, and warblers are flying, crowded with Khitan horses of various colors that live in groups that can't be seen in groups.

The horse neighed and groaned, one after another.

The sight was spectacular.

Murong Wan'er was still dressed in white, with her long hair combed behind her head, like a fairy descending to earth.

She stood quietly on the high slope, letting the spring breeze blow the hair on her forehead, and her clothes fluttered.

There was a look of worry on her alluring face.

She looked to the far southeast, which was the direction of Song Jing.

These days she was sleepless and anxious, fearing that something might happen.

For this batch of war horses, for the eternal cause of the man she loves, she almost exhausted all her energy.

It also used all the power that the Murong family had hidden outside the pass for a hundred years.

All resources.

All the details.

Unbeknownst to the Murong family, the Murong family has gone bankrupt due to this.

If these war horses cannot return to the Song Dynasty as they wish, she...will definitely vomit blood and die.

Murong Wan'er knew very well that it wasn't just the Jinren who would attack this group of war horses.

There will also be the Zhongjia Army in the direction of Yanmen Pass, and the Hebei Army in the direction of Zhang Shuye.

Now that the news has leaked out, if Wang Lin's army fails to arrive on time and let the Jinren or the Western Army seize the opportunity, the consequences will be disastrous.

Thousands of people from Murong's family set up camp at Taniguchi.

Among them, there are Liao people, Jurchen, and even people from more distant Western Regions, blond and blue-eyed Westerners, and of course there are Han Chinese.

This is the manpower that the Murong family has amassed for hundreds of years in order to restore the country.

In a short time, they were all called out by Murong Wan'er with family orders, and the dark chess turned into a bright flag.

Murong Wan'er did not regret it.

She knew that if Wang Lin could succeed, everything that the Murong family had paid now would be recovered, or even a hundredfold.

Even if it doesn't work, she will have no regrets if she fights for Ailang.

Two soldiers of the Murong family hurried up the hillside, bowed and said: "Your Highness, my subordinates have received news that Wanyan Zongwang of Xijing sent a troop to Yingzhou.

In the direction of Yanmen Pass, the people from the Zhong family are also ready to move! "

Murong Wan'er's face remained unchanged, and she said slowly: "What is the direction of the Song Dynasty?"

"The king of Qi's soldiers and horses are all iron cavalry, and they have passed the Damao Mountain Pass.

However, the Hebei army did its best to mobilize troops and horses in the direction of Yizhou. It seemed...it seemed that the Song army wanted to take advantage of the fire and attack Youzhou? "

Murong Wan'er was relieved.

He said with a smile: "The order is passed on, the people who tell us must be careful, and don't let the war horse make any mistakes.

Now that King Qi's soldiers and horses have arrived, with the combat power of subduing tiger cavalry, even if they meet Wanyan Zongwang, they may not be incapable of fighting and winning! "

"While the Hebei army pretended to attack Youyan, Wanyan Zong hoped that he would send a large army back to help. There are not many soldiers left in Xijing... This matter is settled."

"Besides, King Qi is coming, don't call me Princess anymore, just call me Wangfei!"

……

The [-] Fuhu Cavalry who passed the Damao Mountain Pass with their flags down, suddenly received Wang Lin's military order, divided the troops into two groups, and raised their flags all the way to attack Lingqiu.

Lingqiu was originally the Khitan's military fortress facing the Song Dynasty.

After Wanyan Zongwang captured Xijing, Lingqiu gradually gathered thousands of remnants of Khitan soldiers, as well as a large group of Liao family members.

The red sun hangs high.

Wang Lin led Yanqing's Tiger God Guards to rush up to the high slope outside the Lingqiu, forming a formation and waiting.

Yue Fei's [-] iron cavalry rushed to Hunyuanchuan.

In addition to defending against Yan Zongwang's incoming army, Yue Fei also had to fight against the elite Song Army and Western Army who might leave Yanmen Pass at any time.

In fact, the situation is very serious.

Also in the northeast direction, the soldiers and horses who have always been called the Resentment Army also went south from Guihua Prefecture.

So far, Wanyan Zongwang, the Western Army, and this so-called resentful army have coveted these horses.

Others don't know, but Wang Lin knows that this is Guo Yaoshi's team.

Yan Qing actually didn't quite understand.

Shouldn't the top priority be to focus on the horses, rush into the Hunyuan River valley, drive the horses back?
But the prince wanted to attack Lingqiu and the subsequent Guangling.

The remnant Khitan soldiers in Lingqiu were nothing to worry about, but Guangling behind Lingqiu had five thousand gold troops stationed there.

The news of the sudden appearance of the Song army in the Liao territory must have been known to the Jin people. In fact, the Guangling Jin army has already come out to Lingqiu.

Inside the Lingqiu, the remnant Khitan soldiers were anxious, unable to escape, and unable to fight again.

There was the Song Army in the front, and the Jin people in the back.

Almost all of the Liao territory fell into the hands of the Jin people, where else could they escape?
The cries and shouts in the low fortress were earth-shattering.

Wang Lin stared at the Lingqiu Fort not far away from his horse.

On the two mountain roads behind Lingqiu, golden cavalry all over the mountains charged towards Lingqiu wielding scimitars.

Yan Qing bowed and said, "My lord, do you really want to fight the Jinren?"

Wang Lin nodded slowly: "Xiaoyi, our army has entered the Liao territory, and we can't hide it from the eyes and ears of the Jin soldiers. If we don't wipe out the current Jin army in one fell swoop, once they join forces with the Jin people who are heading south from Xijing, Yue Fei will be able to If you gallop your horse eastward, you will also lose most of the damage."

"Zhang Shuye feinted to attack Youyan and attracted Wanyan Zongwang. This golden army can only be resisted by you and the Tiger God Guard. Are you confident?"

Yan Qing solemnly said: "I will die for the prince!"

Yan Qing held up the simple knife in his hand on the horse, and the specially made military flag embroidered with gold-rimmed tiger patterns among the five thousand tiger guards formed behind him fluttered in the wind.

Wang Lin took a deep breath, looked sideways at Liang Hongyu who was beside him with a slightly nervous expression, and said with a smile, "Hongyu, the big battle is coming, are you afraid?"

Although Liang Hongyu was good at martial arts, it was the first time she had experienced a battle, and the opponent was a fierce golden soldier. It would be an absolute lie to say that she was not nervous at all.

Liang Hongyu's pretty face flushed, she shook her head and said, "My lord, the last general is not afraid of death!"

Wang Lin smiled: "Gu left five hundred soldiers to protect you on this slope, Hong Yu, you beat the drums yourself to help Gu and the five thousand soldiers!"

Wang Lin turned his horse's head, faced the Tiger God Guards, and suddenly shouted: "Brothers, for the people of Song Dynasty, this battle must be fought to the death! It must be won!"

The Tiger God Guard burst into a heaven-shattering shout: "This battle must be won, the King of Qi will win!"

Wang Lin knew that, strictly speaking, this was his first battle with Jin Bing since the Fuhu Army became an army, and it was of great significance.

Victory will skyrocket morale, while defeat will destroy bones.

Success or failure is here!
Liang Hongyu was dressed in armor, and the red cloak fluttered behind her in the wind. She looked excited and beat the snare drum.

"Prepare for battle!"

The five thousand tiger guards moved in unison, checking the enhanced version of the short crossbow, firearms such as poisonous smoke fireballs personally improved by Wang Lin, and the simple gas masks specially equipped by the tiger guards.

The head of the long spear was replaced with a sickle spear.

"Kill!" Wang Lin rode his horse and swung his gun, and rushed down the high slope first.

A purple torrent swept down.

Liang Hongyu's pretty face reflected the red light of excitement under the gorgeous sun, and the drumsticks in her hands fell one after another, and the melodious sound of a desolate and powerful army drum came out.
