[Comprehensive] One Hundred Ways to Rob the Protagonist

Pan Renmei may have a lot of selfishness, but she is not wrong about the overall strategic arrangement this time.In order not to divulge the plan of the Northern Expedition, Zhao Guangyi summoned the main generals of the Northern Expedition behind his back, gave them face-to-face instructions, and taught them the main strategy of the entire Northern Expedition.

Cao Bin and Mi Xin's [-] troops on the East Road were the main force, and they were also the bait to attract the Khitan's main force.The task of the [-] elite soldiers on the West Road is to take advantage of the opportunity when the main force of Khitan is drawn away, break through the four prefectures, and approach Youzhou.At that time, the two roads will converge, and a decisive battle will be fought under the city of Youzhou!

At this moment, Cao Bin's east road should be "advancing cautiously" according to Zhao Guangyi's strategy.And Pan Renmei didn't dare to do too many things at this critical moment.Anyway, what the officials told him was to let him consume the Yang family slowly, and he got rid of Yang Yansi first, and killed this murderous enemy, and he was temporarily comforted in his heart - there is another reason, that is, the black wind horse thief's asking price is too high up!With so many sons in the Yang family, he couldn't afford to buy them one by one!

Yang Wulang was full of anger, but was stopped by his brothers.Yang Silang and Yang Liulang dragged him out of the military tent on the left and right, and went back to their camp to explain the pros and cons to him.

Yang Ye left behind Yang Dalang, the eldest son he had been raising with him all the time, and also the future head of the Yang family in his plan.Some important decisions must be made with the eldest son.

……

"Brother!" Yang Dalang returned to his tent and saw Wulang waiting for him inside.The similarity between Goro and Shichiro is that both of them have simple and pure personalities.It's just that Qilang's simplicity is due to his obsession with martial arts, while Goro's simplicity is full of loyalty.

Goro, Liulang, Qilang, and Balang, these younger brothers were all brought up by Yang Dalang. Goro and Qilang are simple and straightforward, and Liulang is intelligent and affectionate.Balang Yang Yanshun is the posthumous son of Yang Ye's former comrade. His father, Wang Jin, died trying to break out of the siege and rescue Yang Ye, so Yang Ye adopted him as his adopted son and raised him up.Yang Yanshun knew his background, although he grew up with his brothers, he also developed a cautious temperament.

Just now, Shiro and Liulang pulled Goro out to persuade him, telling him that it was the most unwise thing to do in the barracks against the commander.According to military regulations, if Goro made a big fuss, Pan Renmei had every reason to kill him.Although Pan Renmei dare not make such a big fuss now, Goro will definitely suffer.If the trouble becomes serious, the Yang family will be in an embarrassing situation.

"Brother!" Goro knew that the words of the fourth brother and the sixth brother were reasonable, but he couldn't change his mind. "Can we see that the seventh brother is gone, but we are still being splashed by that surnamed Pan?"

"I know that the fourth brother and the sixth brother are smarter than me, but! But!" Goro still couldn't help expressing the sadness in his heart, "But is brotherhood not as important as these interests?"

On the one hand, Goro felt that he was impulsive, but on the other hand, he felt sorry for the seventh brother.Could it be that because of these overall situations and interests, these brothers can watch him bear the stigma after his death?

"Fool, how can you think so?" Dalang asked him to repeat what Shiro and Rokuro said, then stretched out his hand and patted the head of his silly brother, telling him to sit down and talk.It seems that these two careful younger brothers have already seen some flaws, so they are so calm.

Thinking about it, my father told me all the things just now, and I realized that the Black Wind Horse Bandits who have crossed the border in the past two years have already changed people.But before that, Shiro personally rushed to the rescue, helping those two capture Blackbeard and put down the Black Wind Horse Bandit.As for Liu Lang, he had already dealt with that little Chu official in Tokyo, and he was in charge of military intelligence work in Yanmen Pass, so he must have been in contact with those two people in the past two years.

Perhaps they had already seen from some details that the one who attacked this time was not the real Khitan cavalry, but the two black wind horse thieves controlled by them, so they guessed that nothing really happened to the seventh brother.

Thinking of this, Yang Dalang patted Wulang on the shoulder, feeling that he and Wulang were really being compared by several brothers.Goro also allocated his own soldiers and horses to Shiro to wipe out the black wind horse bandits that time, but he didn't find any problems.As the eldest brother, I was responsible for the overall planning, but I didn't see the secret connection between my father and the eldest son. I was really ashamed.

"Don't worry, Shiro and Liulang are not the kind of ruthless people. They naturally have their reasons for doing this." Yang Dalang touched Wulang's head again, thinking that it's better not to tell this stupid brother, lest he let Pan Renmei's love go up. doubt.

Yang Wulang trusted his elder brother very much. After being comforted by his elder brother, his anger calmed down a lot, and he followed Yang Dalang to devote his attention to the next pioneer mission.

The Khitan main force led by Brother Yeluxiu was indeed attracted by Cao Bin's East Route Army, and the troops in the West were greatly reduced.Yang Wulang was full of grief and indignation because of Qilang's death, and charged forward in person.When he got up, he took off his armor and rushed to the front with his upper body bare. He rushed to the top of Yunzhou city first, fought bloody battles, and opened the gate of Yunzhou city.

Sanlang and Shiro, who were in charge of support, quickly followed up, expanded the results of the battle, rushed into the city, finally stabilized the situation, and completely occupied Yunzhou.

Goro was hit by two arrows, and a thick white cloth was wrapped around his strong chest, but the resentment in his chest did not disappear.

Before he came, he passed the place where Qilang was ambushed at that time, thinking that Qilang died here, a flame burned in his heart.This kind of anger made him go all the way like a mad tiger, going down two cities in a row.

……

At the foot of Tuer Mountain in the northeast of Montenegro, there are circles of felt tents of different colors, like mushrooms dotted in the green field.This is the location of Xia Nabo in the Liao Kingdom.

The tents in the center are golden yellow, with yellow and white curtains hanging around them, fluttering gently in the mountain wind.

The tent in the middle is extremely spacious, comparable to a large hall.This is the tooth tent of Yelu Longxu, the king of the Liao Kingdom.The tent is made of golden dragon embroidered silk and satin as the ground barrier, and the thick pillars are ornately decorated. It can be seen at a glance that they have been influenced by a lot of Central Plains culture.

Yelu Longxu was only 12 years old when he came to the throne, and all political affairs were entrusted to his mother, Empress Dowager Chengtian, Xiao Chuo.Empress Dowager Xiao trusted Han Derang and Yelu Xiezhen, Wen and Wu joined forces with Empress Dowager Xiao to clear up most of the Khitan clan that threatened Empress Dowager Xiao's mother and son in the past few years, and finally held the power in their hands.

Now Yelu Longxu is 17 years old and has gradually begun to get in touch with political affairs, but the real caller is still Empress Dowager Xiao.

At this moment, he was sitting in the middle of the tent, listening to the Empress Dowager Xiao discussing the countermeasures for the Northern Expedition of the Song Dynasty with several important ministers.

"The emperor of the Song Dynasty said that there were two armies, but in fact he secretly sent two other armies." General Yelu Molugu, the king of the North Court, reported the latest military situation to everyone, "The four armies of the Song Dynasty are about 20, and they should be regarded as pouring out of the country. gone."

The confrontation between the two countries has been going on for a long time, and each other has a better understanding of each other's strength.The 20 elite soldiers of the Song Dynasty were really the power of the whole country to carry out the Northern Expedition.

This battle is related to the national destiny of the two countries!

"Brother Yeluxiu is on the east road, I'm not worried. On the contrary, the Song army on the west road is constantly occupying the city and occupying land. It's hard to handle. It needs a strong general to deal with it." Empress Dowager Xiao is 35 years old this year, and she is the best woman years.Her facial features are not particularly delicate, her eyebrows are too dark, her eyes are too bright, her lips are a bit thick, and her cheekbones are a bit high - but the decisiveness and confidence in her gestures give her a special style.

Brother Yeluxiu, who stayed behind in Nanjing, is an experienced veteran, and he should have no problem leading the Khitan main force to face the East Route Army.But who is going to fight against the generals of the Yang family?Empress Dowager Xiao's eyes swept over the ministers, and when she finally saw the elegant and handsome middle-aged man Han Derang beside her, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and her eyes changed slightly.

"This matter must be done by the privy envoy of the North Court." Han Derang looked at Empress Dowager Xiao with a smile, and recommended Yelu Xiezhen.Regardless of qualifications or ability, Yelu Xiezhen is the most suitable.

Yelu Xiezhen didn't refuse, seeing the Empress Dowager Xiao nodding her head in agreement, she took the initiative to accept the task: "I will definitely live up to the entrustment of the Empress Dowager and Your Majesty."

"Yang Wudi's family is brave and fierce, you have to be careful." Empress Dowager Xiao gave a few words of advice, and then changed the topic to the future strategy.

The Song army looks very imposing now, whether it is the east road or the west road, they have successively attacked the city to win.But Empress Dowager Xiao couldn't see any anxiety on her face, but was calmly discussing the next strategy with the civil and military ministers.

Yelu Longxu sat at the top, listening carefully to the discussion of the people below, and seemed unaware of the small interactions between Empress Dowager Xiao and Han Derang.

The meeting didn't really end until noon, and Yelu Longxu was the only one left in the tent.

He habitually asks people to spread paint on paper, picks up a brush, and begins to paint and outline.Pieces of different colors were unfolded on the rice paper—"Manjusri slave!" Light footsteps came from outside the hall, and a tall girl walked in with a riding whip. It was Yelu Mingjing.

Yelu Mingjing and Yelu Longxu can be regarded as childhood sweethearts, and they are very close to each other, so no one stopped her from entering and leaving Yelu Longxu's palace.

"What are you painting?" Yelu Mingjing came to the front, saw the color blocks on the rice paper, and tilted his head slightly, "This is... a tree? A river? Ah, this is the city of those Han people!"

"Yes. Although I have never been to Tokyo, I heard that it is the most prosperous and prosperous place in the world." Yelu Longxu pinched his paintbrush, his face full of longing, "My Khitan ancestors have insisted on going south for generations, and one day there will be Both the Central Plains and Tokyo will be in the palm of my Great Khitan!"

Yelu Mingjing applauded: "Good! Good! Good!"

Yelu Longxu looked at the exaggerated expression on her face with a half-smile: "What do you want from me? You said you didn't want to marry your mother's natal nephew, and I didn't force you; it was me who locked you up. I begged for you, let your father let you out. Now you come here to flatter me again, what do you want?"

"I also want to go to war." Yelu Mingjing laughed with him, "Look, my skills have always been good..."

Yelu Longxu narrowed his eyes and looked at her: "Oh, are you fighting? Can you go and fight with the Song State West Route Army?"

"Of course!" Yelu Mingjing was overjoyed, but seeing Yelu Longxu's expression, he couldn't help but slumped his shoulders again, "Hmph, they told you that they trusted you! How could you do this?"

"You only met Yang Silang once, so why did you fall in love with him?" Yelu Longxu's expression became serious, "The Yang family killed so many warriors of our Great Khitan, if you really marry Yang Silang, you will take those What did the Khitan warriors who died at the hands of their Yang family become?"

"Who said I have to marry him?" Yelu Mingjing stomped his feet angrily, "I just went to see!" She had a crush on Yang Silang, but she also knew that Yang Silang and she could only be enemies.But the few Han men she met inside and outside Yanmen Pass in those few days—Chu Tianshu, Xie Kun, and Yang Yanhui—were all different from the clansmen she was familiar with.

She just wanted to go to the front line and see those Song people.What kind of people are they?In what way is it different from the clansmen?

……

"Break the east road first." Xie Kun translated the received secret letter according to the corresponding code, and saw the latest Khitan decision.

After discussing with all the ministers, Empress Dowager Xiao decided that Yelu Xiezhen would lead the troops to fight against the West Route Army, and Empress Dowager Xiao and Yelu Longxu would go on their own.

They planned to take advantage of Khitan's excellent cavalry fighting in the vast and flat terrain, and concentrate their forces to defeat the Eastern Route Army led by Cao Bin first.Then, defeat the other Song armies one by one.

Looking at the short secret letter, Chu Tianshu once again became curious about the identity of the blue bird.Every time Jade Bird is able to pass on the secret news of the uppermost Khitan, he must be living next to these uppermost layers.How did Zhao Guangyi abandon such a loyal and capable spy without hesitation?

Although Chu Tianshu and Xie Kun, as the newcomers, are well aware of Khitan's basic strategy, but from Jade Bird's point of view, he definitely took a lot of risks.

Before the Eastern Route Army set off, Zhao Guangyi gave them the task of walking slowly to attract the main force of Khitan.But when the news of Xilu's repeated achievements came, the generals of Xilu couldn't sit still.They all demanded to speed up the march, and they could not let the West Route Army steal their limelight.

Cao Bin couldn't suppress these generals transferred from various places, so he had to agree to their request to speed up the siege.As a result, the East Route Army quickly captured Zhuozhou, and then Yeluxiu cut off the grain transportation channel. After more than ten days, they ate up all the grain they carried, and had to return to Xiongzhou to wait for logistics delivery.

As a result, after receiving food support, the generals of the Eastern Route Army once again agitated to send troops.They carried food and grass that could last for five days, and attacked Zhuozhou again.At this time, Empress Dowager Xiao, Yelu Longxu, Han Derang and others had already set up camp on the edge of Zhuozhou. Brother Yeluxiu led the cavalry and rushed to stop the Song army.

The Song army walked on the road for four days. The heat was unbearable and the army food was scarce. They occupied Zhuozhou, but they could not hold on and had to abandon the city.

"General! Brother Yeluxiu is catching up!" Cao Bin asked people to prevent the people of Zhuozhou from retreating, and he himself led the troops to the rear.But now the morale of the Song army has plummeted, and they can't even form a decent formation. In addition to the large number of escorts, the marching speed is extremely slow, and it is impossible to escape the pursuit of the Khitan cavalry.

Cao Bin knew that this time he might want to save his life here.
