I rebelled in the Song Dynasty

Cai You felt that after the Khitans devoured those 1 people, they must be in a hurry to regain their lost territory. There were more than ten small and large counties. After taking over these counties, he didn't know how many days it would take.

Wang Zhen saw Cai You's confidence and felt that the Khitans would not catch up so quickly.

But I was still a little worried in my heart, and wanted to cross the Sanggan River overnight to completely get rid of the troubles of the Khitan cavalry, but Cai You responded: "Marching at night is a taboo for military strategists, how can a Khitan general not know that? What's more, crossing the river at night, I don’t know how much damage you are going to do to my son?”

As soon as they heard that they were resting, everyone immediately lay down. After running away for a whole day without getting any water, and then walking for half a night, they reached their limit.

Just after Wang Zhen found a comfortable position and sat down, the ground kept shaking. Before he could react, the lieutenant general shouted: "The enemy is attacking, form a formation, and meet the enemy."

Hearing these words, Wang Xin jumped up tremblingly and looked for Cai You.

Cai You stared in disbelief at the fiery yellow dragon rushing from the north, and froze on the spot.

"My lord, the Khitans are chasing us, what should we do?" Wang Zhen said with a slight trembling.

At this time, Cai You also reacted and ordered: "The entire army extinguished their torches, discarded all their baggage, and crossed the Sanggan River at night."

As he mounted his horse and was about to flee, he was stopped by the arriving military lieutenant colonel and said: "My lord, the Khitans have come from a long way and are few in number. We may not be able to resist them. If we forcefully cross the river, we may suffer heavy losses." "

Xiao He saw the Song army in front and said excitedly: "Brothers, change your horses and charge forward."

As the flute and words fell, the Khitan sergeant who followed jumped from one horse to another skillfully.

The hesitant Cai You saw this scene and exclaimed: "The Khitans are riding two horses, and they are skilled in bow and horse. We can't stop them. The whole army crosses the river."

The general wanted to argue, but Cai You said in a deep voice: "This is an order."

The general had no choice but to order a retreat and cross the river.

The assembled sergeants were just about to prepare for a life-and-death fight with the Khitans, but no further military order came to tell them to withdraw.

Faced with this inexplicable order and the pressure from the Khitan people, the Song army collapsed again and rushed towards the river beach.

Xiaohe laughed loudly when he saw this and said, "Kill with me."

It was like a harvester running at full speed rushing into the wheat field, but the ones who fell were Song soldiers one by one.

Seeing how ferocious the Khitan people were, everyone no longer had the mentality to resist, and a ridiculous scene appeared. A dozen Khitan soldiers chased hundreds or even thousands of Song troops to kill them. The Khitan soldiers went crazy in pursuit, and the Song soldiers ran crazy. The entire river valley was in chaos.

After a long time, the Song army was no longer seen on the entire river beach. Xiao He looked at the Song army struggling in the river before withdrawing his troops and laughing: "The Song army is no match for me."

At this time, the deputy general hurried forward and said: "General, we captured some prisoners and asked about something."

"What? There were more than [-] people abandoned by them at the beginning. Wasn't it [-] weak and weak, and there were still a lot of strong people?"

Xiao He suddenly felt bad and felt that he had been tricked and ordered: "Kill all the prisoners and return the entire army to camp."

Before the soldiers could get over from the excitement of killing, they hurriedly followed Xiao He to the north.

In the Khitan camp, Liu Sheng had already prepared everything and was waiting for Xiao He to come back. After a while, there was the sound of horse hooves outside the camp. Liu Sheng clenched his fists and said, "Here he comes."

Xiaohe was outside the camp, looking at the camp that was just like before the expedition. He felt extremely uneasy and stopped and said, "Go and see if the three thousand Song troops are still in the camp? Let the commander-in-chief of the Song army and the people in the camp come out to greet them." .”

The scout who went to investigate after a while reported back: "General, there is nothing unusual about the Song Army camp. It's just that there are people wandering around. Seeing the general, they hurriedly fled into the woods far away. The Song Army commander was placed in the camp and was not there. The Song Army’s station.”

Xiao He was overjoyed after hearing this and said: "So it turns out that Song Qi's army is not monolithic. They want to submit to the Liao Dynasty, but they are worried about being massacred. Let three thousand old and weak people be the vanguard. How can the Liao Dynasty kill thousands of prisoners with its power?" Lift."

At this time, the scout who went to the camp also returned and said: "General, there are people coming from Xijing, and they have some criticisms of the general, especially the gathered three thousand Song troops. Let the general lead the troops back quickly."

Xiao He snorted coldly after hearing this, but without saying a word, he slowly led the army towards the camp.

As soon as I entered Camp Xiaohe, I immediately felt something was wrong. The surroundings were unusually quiet. I always felt like there were figures moving around in the darkness, but when the fire shined through, there was nothing.

Xiao He came to the brightly lit tent in the middle of the camp and dismounted and said, "Pioneer Xiao He wants to see the envoy."

There were countless people in the camp, seemingly discussing something. After waiting for a while, no one paid any attention to him, so Xiao He raised his voice and said, "Pioneer Xiao He asks to see the envoy."

At this time, the camp tent was opened, and a figure stood in front of Xiao He.

Xiao He looked unhappy, but didn't say anything.

Liu Sheng said: "Did the general achieve anything this time? We are all waiting to share some of the credit from the general."

Xiaohe was annoyed at this time and cursed: "Who do you think you are? You dare to talk to me like this?"

Liu Sheng said nothing, waved his hand, and hundreds of heads were thrown over from all directions in an instant.

Xiaohe Dajing pointed at Liu Sheng and said, "You."

Then he turned around and mounted his horse and said: "Withdraw, withdraw from the camp."

How could Liu Sheng be willing to give him this opportunity? The purpose of delaying time was to completely block the retreat.

The people who had arranged before had already sealed the south gate, and a large number of horses were piled up together, and the iron caltrops were scattered everywhere like dust.

Barrels of kerosene were ignited on the earth slopes set up on both sides and pushed downwards.

Rows of spearmen stood boldly in front, and the crossbowmen began to fire arrows.

This series of operations caught Xiao He off guard, and a large number of sergeants were shot before they knew what was happening.

When Xiao He saw this, he shouted: "Dismount and let the horses move out of the way. All the troops will follow me to kill the enemy."

Previously, the Khitan people wanted to use their war horses to charge into a road. How could Liu Sheng not be on guard.

As Liu Sheng said "get up".

Pieces of planks were lifted, and a trench one meter wide and twenty centimeters deep appeared. There was a large amount of kerosene in it. As a rocket was fired into it, a fire instantly ignited.

The war horses were afraid of the fire and stood still, watching their own soldiers fall one after another.

Xiao and Ji pointed their fingers and cursed: "You are not the son of a man."

Liu Sheng did not answer, but still directed the people to pour kerosene and fire bows and arrows.

The entire camp was filled with the screams of the Khitans.

Xiao He regretted why he didn't follow the lieutenant's advice and kill this man.

But he never thought that in just a few short hours, he would have a bright future with great military achievements, but now his life would be at stake, and he would feel indescribable bitterness in his heart.

Xiao He brandished his sword, knocked down the flying arrows and said, "All the soldiers will follow me and charge to kill."

The war horses were afraid of the fire and could not move forward. Xiao He could not jump over the soaring fire, so he had to kill the war horses to fill the trench.
