Even though [-] cavalry were lightly dressed and traveled day and night, it was still two days after they arrived in Liping County, the northernmost tip of Cangzhou. Shen Ci and these elite cavalry were already very familiar with the battlefield. Yang Chen told them that there was a fierce battle ahead.

The soldiers who were sent to investigate earlier had already returned, and reported, "The Beidi people are approaching the city gate, but the city is holding on, so they don't attack so quickly."

A heavy stone in Shen Ci's heart fell to the ground in an instant, and the breath that he had been carrying all the way was finally exhaled. Although he knew that they set off early this time, he was still grateful for God's favor for this life.

Without delay, they rode their horses towards the city gate of Liping County, and their iron hooves made a neat sound on the sand. After half a stick of incense, they appeared in the sight of Beidi people.

The Beidi people have more combat experience than them, and they react very quickly. They are indeed the most feared army on the battlefield in the world. As soon as they met them, the other party stared at them tightly, like hunting wolves The group was waiting for them to approach, and when they reached the range of the bow and arrow, the arrows of the Beidi people flew towards them in an instant.

These are cavalry from the [-] Battalion, who were transferred from Northern Xinjiang to the capital. Unlike the soldiers from the [-]th Army Battalion, they are unlikely to retreat. Seeing the people from Beidi, they probably feel very friendly, and rushed forward in the face of the rain of arrows. Going up, anyway, many Beidi people can't speak the official dialect of the Central Plains, and they can't understand the greetings, and they just fight in one place without saying a word.

The defenders on the tower shouted excitedly: "The reinforcements from the imperial court have arrived! The reinforcements have arrived!"

Shen Ci shot more than a dozen arrows in a row, shooting down the Beidi people who were climbing up the tower on the ladder without fail, and glanced at the situation on the tower, which was similar to what he thought.

If Cangzhou is a border gate, Liping County is the border gate. Most of the defenders in the city are the Cangzhou Army trained by Pei Yuankai himself. Those who came down were all guards with inferior combat power. There were not many people, and they couldn't handle it at all.

Therefore, there were many ordinary people on the tower who were not soldiers at all. It should be the young and strong men in the city who came to defend the city spontaneously.

In the previous life, these people stayed in the city for more than three days. Until the last moment, they did not complain or flinch. Fleeing, all died here.

Shen Ci saw Shen Che at a glance, even though he seldom cried, his eyes were moist and hot at that moment, the master was not dead, nor was the mistress dead, he didn't know what else he could do except think of the words "great". What words are commensurate with the mood at this time.

But before he had time to shout, the Beidi people's blades were approaching, so he had to turn his horse's head and fight the Beidi people with the cavalry of the three battalions.

The Beidi people do not pay as much attention to formation and strategy as the Han people in combat. Their fighting methods are often the most primitive and fierce. Every single person can fight ten against one, and there is really no need to care about the formation of troops that the Han people call.They often don't directly confront the enemy with swords, but use bows and arrows most skillfully, and their riding skills are very good, their horses are excellent, and they can advance or retreat very quickly.

At that time, the first wave of arrows that hit the face did not block them, so they rushed forward to fight melee. The Beidi people kept keeping distance from them in all directions, so that they could use bows and arrows. Hit a hammer in the east and a stick in the west. Just run away and disappear.Moreover, Beidi people have long encountered wolves on the grasslands, and they can accurately grasp the enemy's weakest point, spy secretly, and then make a surprise attack, and retreat if they fail to succeed in one blow, and then break through from the other side.

Once the Han people felt that the Beidi people were invincible on the battlefield, and wanted to build more and more sophisticated swords, guns, bows, and crossbows to resist enemies that were almost impossible to block with human power. During the years of combat, they also sought the help of firecrackers, and that army with firearms was the predecessor of the Shenji Battalion.

At the beginning of the founding of Dayu, the four towns in northern Xinjiang were also equipped with a fixed amount of firearms every year. Later, the treasury became increasingly empty and could not support the maintenance and replacement of firearms and the increasing consumption. Young, coupled with the imperial court's wariness against northern Xinjiang, thinking about them guarding the border for Dayu, and not wanting them to be too powerful, such as mastering terrible firearms is something that cannot be reassured by the imperial court, so during the Xizong Dynasty, Northern Xinjiang was completely withdrawn. With all the supply of firearms, the battle between the four towns in northern Xinjiang and the Beidi people can only return to human confrontation.

So no matter what the four general soldiers of Northern Xinjiang praise or criticize, anyone who has seen how the Beidi people fought on the battlefield will still admire the four general soldiers. The unparalleled army in the world has been fighting in the harsh frontier for ten years and ten years, but they have never let the people of Beidi advance to the territory of Dayu. They are indeed very great generals.

The Beidi people who appeared in Cangzhou are basically the army of Batu Khan Yild, and this Beidi is no exception. Yild means "war sword" in Beidi language. He is stronger than every Khan in the past. You must be good at fighting. I heard that since he ascended the Khan throne, his cavalry has carried a knife and a bow. No matter whether it is the grassland or the Gobi, he has never been defeated. The most unfair thing for so many years is probably that he failed to defeat Pei Yuankai and Wu. Honor these two Han people.

This time when Pei Yuankai retired from the battle, Yild was already so excited that he couldn't sleep at night. He felt that he would step into the territory of Dayu just around the corner. Naturally, he would not let this opportunity pass. There should be more cavalry coming for reinforcements.

The three battalions have now been rebuilt, but this time they left in a hurry and did not have time to bring them. The supply of firearms is very troublesome, and it is not suitable for rapid marches and light clothing. The cavalry of the 1 battalion is the fastest one.These [-] people have been battle-hardened and are the elite of the elite. They are also very experienced in fighting Beidi people. They are not afraid of their flexible style of play. In addition, the defenders on the towers have not given up. They have been doing their best to cooperate. By nightfall , Although it was a bit hard to play, but also coped with it.

Although Beidi has good physical strength, they have traveled a long distance. At night, they retreated first. After retreating dozens of miles away, Shen Ci was exhausted, his armor was covered with blood, and his hand holding the knife was shaking. It is also the same situation.

They did not enter the city in a hurry, they cleaned the battlefield outside the city, and arranged for the defense outside the city. The defenders on the tower were also very tired. They couldn't help at this time, so they just watched them chatting on the tower. .

"I didn't expect General Shen to be so young." A young soldier exclaimed, "He hasn't reached the crown yet."

Shen Che walked over with a smile, and replied, "Nineteen, next year and the crown."

A Cangzhou veteran who was familiar with him next to him smiled and said, "This is your baby? I haven't seen him for many years." After a pause, he said softly, "I didn't say that, he really looks like Pei. General, it was not obvious when he was a child, but looking at his eyebrows and eyes now, it is almost carved out of the same mold."

Shen Che snorted, and said, "So Pei Yuankai should regret it. Of course, the son he doesn't want will take advantage of me."

The young soldiers had heard more or less that an illegitimate son of the Pei family had been adopted by outsiders. At this moment, they all looked at Shen Che in unison, wanting to say something but feeling embarrassed to say it.

Shen Che was a little funny, but his tone couldn't hide his pride: "You don't need to ask, Shen Ci is my son."

Shen Ci at the bottom of the city tower heard it, looked up and said nothing, it can be seen from his faint smile that he acquiesced to this sentence.

After the defenses inside and outside the city were all set up, and the wounded soldiers were settled, every household in the city had already gone to sleep. Shen Ci thought for a while, and walked lightly to the old house of Master and Mistress in Liping. When he arrived at the door, he saw There was still a light on inside.

For a moment, he almost thought that the warm yellow candlelight was unreal. He stopped at the door for a long time, but he didn't dare to take a step forward. He couldn't tell whether it was a dream that he didn't want to wake up from, or the bloody dream from a long time ago. The night of the night is a nightmare that seems real and unreal.

The voice of Master and Mistress could be faintly heard in the room. Mistress was asking Xiaoci when she would come back. Master coaxed her to go to bed quickly. Xiaoci is a general, very busy, and might not come back.

Shen Ci stood at the door for a while, and finally pushed open the door gently. Shen Che heard his footsteps, looked out, and pushed Ye Xinmei, who was actually sleepy and tired. His eyes lit up instantly, he stood up and called out with a smile: "Xiaoci! I said you would come back, but your master said you would not come back, are you hungry? Do you want to cook noodles for you? "

What responded to her was the sudden plop of Shen Ci kneeling down, he was speechless, his head was lowered and his eyes were slightly red, and it took a long time before he called out "Master, Master and Wife" in a hoarse voice.

Both Shen Che and Ye Xinmei were taken aback, and rushed to help him, Ye Xinmei said worriedly: "What's the matter? Come, tell Mrs. Shi, get up first."

Shen Ci shook his head. At this time, he was actually as lucky as the rest of his life after a catastrophe. The little difference in the previous life was finally made up in this life, and the late step was finally avoided in this life. Master and wife stood in front of him well, but when he rejoiced all this, he couldn't help but think that all the perfection in this life was bought through the painful experience of the previous life, and those real things can still be recalled from time to time. How can you just forget about the day you remember?

"I'm fine..." Shen Ci said shyly, "I'm just happy, Master and Wife are fine... When I came, I was very worried about Master and Wife..."

Ye Xinmei helped him up, looked at her son carefully like every mother would when she came home, and said, "You just need to take care of yourself, don't worry about us. Sigh, we have lost weight, what do we usually eat? , Did you have a good meal?"

"Yes." Shen Ci promised Xie Ruzhuo to go to see the lanterns in the first month of the month, and he went back to Nangu just fifteen years ago, and he didn't go out to fight for more than a month. How could he be so thin in the capital, but Ye Xinmei repeatedly I'm used to saying that, "Master, it's late, you're not in good health, go to sleep."

Shen Che hurriedly echoed: "Yes, yes, yes, you have been frightened for a whole day today, and your complexion has turned pale. Don't suffer any longer, go to sleep right away."

"But..." Ye Xinmei felt that there were still many things to do and many things to say, but Shen Che ignored her and coaxed her away, pushing and dragging her away.

Shen Ci was afraid of disturbing Ye Xinmei's sleep, so he didn't say a few more words to Shen Che. Shen Che stuffed him with a bag of pastries that Ye Xinmei told him to take away, but he reluctantly took it, bid farewell and went back to the camp .
