Zhang Jue was in the study, restless, always feeling that something bad had happened, but he couldn't figure out what could go wrong, except for the Pishi army chasing him out of the city.

"Will the Pishi Army be defeated?" Zhang Jue smiled and shook off this idea. Anyone could lose, but the Pishi Army could not.

The Pishi Army was selected by Emperor Taizong of the Liao Dynasty from 30 fine armors in the world, and had about 3 fine cavalry.

They never lost a single battle in the south and north, and their worst record was a draw.

Opening the window and looking at the rising sun in the distance, he felt so uneasy that he couldn't even stand up.

At this time, the door of the study room was suddenly pushed open, and a person said in panic: "General, it's bad, the Song cavalry is here."

"Cavalry? Where did the Song army get the cavalry? Where is the Xiao Pioneer? There is no news yet!" Zhang Juehu stared, feeling a little incredible.

Then he asked: "How many people from the Song Army came?"

Without waiting for anyone to say anything, he immediately picked up his helmet and ran straight to the city wall, with the people behind him hurriedly catching up.

"About 1000 Song troops came."

Zhang Jue said angrily: "1000 people? Where did the Song army get the courage?"

"General..." Before he finished speaking, Zhang Jue had already mounted his horse and headed straight for the city wall.

Liu Sheng led more than a thousand cavalry and used very unskilled riding skills to clamor outside the city, and asked people to pile Khitan heads into a palace.

The Khitan troops on top of the city gnashed their teeth in hatred, but no one dared to leave the city to drive them away.

Just because a man's body was hung high by the Song army outside the city.

As soon as Zhang Jue reached the city wall, the uneasiness in his heart made him burst out and said angrily: "Geng Shouzhong, where did you die? How long do you want the Song army to scamper outside the city?"

"The last general, Geng Shouzhong, pays homage to the general." After saying this, a middle-aged man with a body as tall as a pine tree, an aura as strong as the sun, and a pair of eyes as bright as cold stars under his sword-shaped eyebrows bowed to Zhang Jue.

"Are you not dead yet?" Zhang Jue shouted angrily.

Without waiting for Geng Shouzhong to explain, Zhang Jue walked directly around and walked towards the city wall.

Looking at the arrogant Song army under the city wall, Zhang Jue said angrily: "Send an order to kill this Song army and send someone to ask Xiao He to come back."

Upon hearing this, Geng Shouzhong hurried down to the city without much explanation, ordered five thousand soldiers and horses to fight out of the city.

Wu Ze outside the city asked: "Brother Sheng, are we too ostentatious to show up here so arrogantly?"

Liu Sheng smiled and said: "What are you afraid of? Don't you have a horse under your crotch? If they leave the city, let's run away. If we can't beat them, can't we run away?"

Zhang Jue could only look at the clamoring Song troops below the city. He felt that this was a shame and wanted to eliminate them as soon as possible.

If this Song army survives for one more second in front of him, it will be a huge insult to him.

One hundred thousand troops were defeated, and more than a thousand people were driven here.

When Geng Shouzhong opened the city gate and led five thousand troops to fight out.

Zhang Jue suddenly pointed at the heads around Song Jun and said, "What is that?"

General Yipian whispered: "That is the head of my Khitan son, who was cut off by the Song army to make a Jingguan."

Zhang Jue frowned. As a civil servant, it was difficult for him to adapt to such bloody scenes.

When Liu Sheng and others saw Datong City approaching, they waved their whips and ran away without any intention of fighting.

Zhang Jue snorted coldly and said: "Song dogs are so cowardly, do you think I have no cavalry in Datong? When Xiao Xianfeng returns to the city, I will use the heads of this Song people to pile up the capital."

At this time, the general behind him said in a lower voice: "Sir, Xiao Xianfeng may not be able to come back."

Zhang Jue looked unkind, and then seemed to think of something.

"You mean these heads are from the Pishi Army?" Then he looked at the flagpole hung up by the Song Army.

"That's Xiao He?".

The general nodded and said, "Looking at the clothes, you can't go wrong."

Zhang Jue felt something rushing upward in his heart and suppressed the impulse.

"Bring Geng Shouzhong back quickly. Don't leave the city. The Song army is cheating."

Geng Shouzhong had ordered five thousand troops and horses and was heading out of the city. When he heard Ming Jin's order to withdraw his troops, he breathed a sigh of relief. Yesterday, the Song army suffered a new defeat. As a result, the Pishi army that chased them was wiped out. Today, he came to provoke again, saying that among them There must be fraud.

Otherwise, with his temper, he would have gone out of the city long ago. How could he wait for Zhang Jue's arrival to force him out of the city with such easily obtained military exploits?

Liu Sheng watched the Khitans march out from the city gate with great fanfare, then retreated silently, turned around and shouted: "Brothers, the Khitan dogs are afraid of us, so go back and take a stroll."

He slowly wandered back with Song Jun and started talking nonsense under Zhang Jue's eyes.

Geng Shouzhong walked to the top of the city and looked at the lost Zhang Jue, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Zhang Jue kept mumbling: "How could Xiao He be defeated? Xiao He was leading the elites of the royal family. How could the Song army completely annihilate Xiao He and not even the messengers could escape."

Geng Shouzhong said slowly: "My lord, the Song army attacked Xixia and fought Qingtang more than ten years ago. The combat power was not what it showed yesterday. If it weren't for my Liao Chen soldiers, Xixia would have been doomed.

I have also seen that army. It is definitely a lion of war. It can compete with our army. But the Song army that came yesterday, except for the front army, the middle army and the rear army looked exactly like the Eastern army. It's pieced together.

The people of Song Dynasty have always been cunning and have many people. They know that taking Xijing is as difficult as climbing to the sky, so they want to attract all the living forces in our city so that they can defeat them one by one.

Yesterday's [-]-strong army was probably the Song army's decoy, vulnerable to a single blow, inducing Xiao Xianfeng to pursue them and lay a real elite ambush. "

"Otherwise, how could these more than a thousand Song troops have the confidence to come to our Xijing City to show off their power like this? They are probably trying to lure us out of the city. Your Excellency, you must be on your guard."

After hearing this, Zhang Jue took a deep breath and asked, seemingly without reason: "Who is the commander-in-chief of the Song Army? How could he have such a big hand?"

Geng Shouzhong shook his head and said, "I don't know. I guess Geng Yanxi was also a bait. How could an army general step forward to call for battle?"

Zhang Jue nodded after hearing this. What Geng Shouzhong said was not unreasonable. The Song army must have ambushed a large number of elite soldiers outside. Otherwise, how could the 4000-strong Pishi Army not even be able to call for help?

If there were heavy troops hoarded outside the city, then everything would make sense.

But when he thought of Xiao He's death in battle, the Pishi army was destroyed.

Zhang Jue's head was buzzing. How should he explain this to the emperor? Every soldier of the Pishi Army was selected from thousands of people, but the emperor's treasured soldiers only had a total of 3 people. It was a good thing, all of a sudden, [-] were gone.

Xiao He is the future heir of the Xiao family, and is more likely to be the leader of the young generals in the Liao army. He came to Xijing this time just to gain military merit. He wanted a good-looking resume to facilitate his future promotion, but he did not expect that he would The damage is here.

Zhang Jue looked at Geng Shouzhong with a troubled expression and said, "General Geng, what should we do?"

Of course Geng Shouzhong understood the meaning of this, and could only comfort him: "The earthen jar will inevitably be broken on the well, and the general will inevitably die in battle."
