To the north of Baishui City, Yelutuo galloped on his horse under the silent night sky. Behind him were 10,000 elite Khitan armored cavalry. Yelutuo had a sinister look in his eyes. In front of him was the Baishui River. Stepping across the Baishui River,
It was Baishui City. It was the drought season in winter, and the Baishui River had dried up. Ten thousand horses stepped into the Baishui River, which was less than three feet deep. Water splashed everywhere, and they crossed the Baishui River easily.
, ahead is Baishui City. Yelutuo tightened the reins, and the horse neighed and stopped.
The sound of horse hoofbeats came from behind him, and the sound was as loud as earth-shattering. Ten thousand armored generals lined up in a row, forming a square. Yelutuo looked behind him with joy at the ten thousand generals. There were less than two miles ahead.
The road is the city wall of Baishui City. The tall city wall squats in the mountains like a giant beast, which may wake up at any time and swallow everything.
Ling Duozhi stood on the city wall, with strong winds blowing across his face from time to time, brushing against his thin face. "General, Yelutuo has led 10,000 cavalry and crossed the Baishui River." A soldier said to him.
The report came. "Go down and ask the scout brothers to keep an eye on them. In addition to Yelutuo, who else has he brought with him?" Ling Duozhi said solemnly.
"General, does Yelutuo really dare to attack the city tonight?" the deputy general behind Ling Duo asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, they don't dare yet. They just want to involve us so that Yelu Zongheng can successfully complete another of his plots." Ling Duozhi replied calmly.
"Then what is Yelu Zongheng's other conspiracy?"
"He mainly wanted to lure Guo Huaian, the son of Guo Cunyi, the leader of the Shuozhou Guiyi Army, to come out. The four commanders of the Shuozhou Guiyi Army also came to Baishui City, presumably to catch them all. Another purpose of Yelu Zongheng was to meet and discuss with the Prime Minister Wang Dezhong
Let’s use Baishui City to lead troops into the Han Dynasty and then into the Zhou Dynasty.”
"Why should we introduce troops from Baishui City to the Han Dynasty? Can the emperor agree?" the deputy general asked again.
"Lead the army south from Baishui City to sneak attack from behind Dazhou, and attack from both front and back. Baishui City is close to Dazhou and can avoid the natural chasm of Yanmen Pass. It is rumored that Emperor Guo Wei of Dazhou was seriously injured recently for some unknown reason. Our emperor heard that
Overjoyed, he sent Prime Minister Wang Dezhong to meet with Na Yelu Zongheng because he wanted to borrow troops. The emperor wanted to avenge the shame of the defeat two years ago. And Shuozhou was also northeast of Baishui City. If Baishui City was held by the Khitan
In the hands of others, the Guiyi Army in Shuozhou is also in danger, so Guo Huaian must want to sabotage their great event this time."
"If the Khitans want to use Baishui City to lead their troops south, why doesn't the emperor know about it? General Haoda is also the supreme commander of the army here. Doesn't it mean that the general doesn't want to ruin their negotiations?"
"The emperor has long wanted to replace this general. The emperor also knows my general's temper. He will never let the Khitans borrow troops to go south from now on. He simply doesn't know about this general and lets them negotiate an agreement before issuing an imperial edict."
After receiving the imperial edict, I have no choice but to be unwilling to do anything. If I rashly go to disrupt their talks, it will play into the emperor's hands and charge me with a crime of treason.
It is not our soldiers in the border army who will be implicated."
The two lieutenants behind Ling Duo were silent for a while. They were worried about Baishui City and at the same time felt sorry for their general.
Under the vast night, the thunderous sound of horse hooves came from the sound. The soldiers guarding the wall of Baishui City tightened their hearts. They immediately held their weapons tightly and let the strong wind howl, but their figures were still.
Standing tall and motionless.
??????
Guo Huaian grabbed the wine bottle and took a sip of wine, laughing and saying: "Hahahahaha, Yelu Zongheng, you are finally getting angry. Eleven Neijin masters and eleven Khitan warriors blended into the crowd. What a huge formation."
.”
Ling Tianyun felt a slight shiver in his heart. Eleven people were walking towards them at this time, exuding a huge aura and locking on him and Guo Huaian. The eleven seemed to be ordinary people, but Ling Tianyun felt that they were very special at this time.
Danger, a speculation flashed through his mind, could their real target be Guo Huaian? What does the so-called internal strength period refer to? At this moment, a powerful enemy is approaching, but Ling Tianyun's thoughts are thinking about other things.
Guo Huaian patted Ling Tianyun and woke him up from his reverie. Guo Huaian said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I have to involve you. Your injury doesn't matter. There will be a fierce battle later. They don't dare to do anything to you for the time being."
, their main goal is to be brothers."
Although Ling Tianyun was a little puzzled, now was not the time to ask. He reached out and grabbed the jug from Guo Huaian's hand, drank every drop of the wine in the jug, and glanced at the people who were encircling them with a firm gaze.
The eleven Khitan warriors, who were in a strong position, looked calm and said: "We share the same difficulties, drink wine together, and fight together when there are fights. Wouldn't it be fun!"
"Hahaha, good brother, you are worthy of being the son of General Ling. This is the true nature of a good man."
Guo Huaian burst into laughter and threw himself at the eleven Khitan warriors who were trying to encircle them. Guo Huaian punched them with a long fist and swept towards those people like a tiger, "seeking death". One of them, the statue closest to Guo Huaian,
The tough middle-aged warrior shouted loudly, and punched Guo Huaian with both fists. He was so energetic that the tables around them were lifted up by the energy, and there was a constant crackling sound.
"Get out!" Guo Huaian roared. His body was like a tiger descending a mountain, punching and kicking. Only a dull sound was heard. Several people near Guo Huaian staggered, and some of their bodies flew straight out.
, hitting the tables and chairs around them. The middle-aged warrior was closest to Guo Huaian, and he received the most violent attack. The middle-aged warrior was suddenly knocked off the stage by Guo Huaian. Several other Khitan warriors saw it.
He couldn't help but take a breath of air, but he rushed towards Guo Huaian without hesitation.
When Ling Tianyun saw this, he also rushed towards one of the warriors. When the Khitan warrior saw that he was a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old, he showed a look of contempt. The Khitan warrior didn't care about Ling Tianyun's attack. When Ling Tianyun's fists fell,
There was a "bang" on the warrior's chest, and the warrior's body shook as if he felt nothing. Ling Tianyun's fists hit the side of a copper wall, and bursts of pain came from his fists. Ling Tianyun was stunned.
Turning around, he raised his foot and kicked it, and stepped toward the Khitan warrior with lightning speed. The warrior raised his fists and struck Ling Tianyun in the soles of his feet, immediately knocking Ling Tianyun away and landing on a table.
There were ripples in Ling Tianyun's heart. This was the second time today that he had been made so embarrassed. He couldn't help but feel very disappointed. His dejected expression was revealed inadvertently, and was immediately replaced by his fierceness that refused to admit defeat. From childhood to adulthood,
Ling Tianyun has never been so embarrassed.
Ling Tianyun dismissed the distracting thoughts in his heart and jumped up like a leopard to pounce on the Khitan warrior again. His fists collided with the Khitan warrior again, and Ling Tianyun's body was knocked away again. Ling Tianyun's belief was that he could haunt a Khitan warrior.
Just use this to reduce the pressure on Guo Huaian. However, the Khitan warriors never dealt harshly to Ling Tianyun.
Seeing this, Yelu Zongheng had a look of disdain in his eyes and whispered: "You are not overestimating your capabilities."
"That's enough." A thunderous voice sounded in everyone's ears. The sound was as powerful as thunder. The sound shook everyone's ears and made them feel that they had stopped fighting. "Everyone,
To resolve personal grievances, please step outside. I, 'Spring Garden,' can't stand your torment like this." A stunningly beautiful woman in palace attire with her hair pulled up into a high bun suddenly appeared on the stage.
Everyone's expressions were frozen. No one noticed when this beautiful woman appeared on the stage. Yelu Zongheng looked at the beautiful woman coldly and asked Wang Dezhong in a low voice: "Does Mr. Wang know this beauty?"
Who is this woman?" Wang Dezhong showed a puzzled expression and shook his head.
Yelu Zongheng's face tightened and he said in a deep voice: "Madam, what advice do you have? I will bear all the damages in this hall. If Madam is not satisfied, how about I pay double the price?" Originally, Guo Huaian had already fallen behind.
If you are at a disadvantage, your skills will be exhausted sooner or later, but this beautiful woman ruined your good fortune. How could Yelu Zongheng not be angry? He was not willing to have his plan interrupted, and even offered to pay double the price for compensation.
Ling Tianyun frowned, and he discovered that this beautiful woman turned out to be the proprietress of the nameless wine shop. At this time, the beautiful woman was dressed in luxurious clothes, showing a graceful and noble temperament. It was very different from the roving cloth seen in the nameless wine shop. Guo Huaian
He was also stunned. Apparently he also knew this beautiful woman and met her at that unknown wine shop.
"Third Prince, some things cannot be solved with money. I hope you all can move out." The beautiful woman's tone was firm, making it impossible to refute.
Yelu Zongheng's eyes shot out a fierce look, and he looked at the beautiful woman coldly. The beautiful woman suddenly showed an unhappy expression, and her whole body suddenly exuded a cold aura, and her beautiful eyes revealed a sharp sword like ice.
The light pierced directly towards Yelu Zongheng's eyes.
As soon as Yelu Zongheng met the beautiful woman's eyes, he felt as if he were in a cold and biting ice and snow. His heart trembled and he couldn't help but look away. When Wang Dezhong beside him saw this, his expression changed drastically. He hurriedly looked at Yelu
Zongheng whispered a few words into his ear. After hearing this, Yelu Zongheng's face changed and suddenly turned pale.
Yelu bowed horizontally and saluted the beautiful woman and said, "We respect your lady's order and will go out now."
"Guo Huaian, don't you dare to go out." Yelu Zongheng turned his attention to Guo Huaian again.
"Hahahaha, what are you afraid of? Yelu Zongheng, do you dare to fight with me, Mr. Guo, regardless of winning or losing, just life or death." Guo Huaian responded boldly.
"How dare you, what is your identity, what is the identity of the third prince, how dare you compare your life with that of the prince." A Khitan warrior heard Guo Huaian's words and shouted loudly.
"What a bullshit prince, I think you are just as timid as a mouse. You beat us two so many times. If you have the guts, you Yelu Zongheng can fight alone with my brother Guo one on one." Ling Tianyun heard the Khitan warrior scolding him.
, said angrily.
A ray of light shot through Yelu Zongheng's eyes, resting on Ling Tianyun's body, and said contemptuously: "How dare you act so arrogantly even when you are defeated? Ling Tianyun, don't think that I dare not touch you. Even if I don't let you die today, I will let you die."
You've lost all your skin."
Ling Tianyun looked at Yelu Zongheng without fear and said: "What does defeat mean in a battle? If you, Yelu Zongheng, are not dead tonight, I will defeat you in two years. Do you dare to fight?"
"You are not overestimating your capabilities. I will just take it. In two years' time, I will see how much you Ling Tianyun has improved. Guo Huaian, I will also take over your battle book. I will kill you tonight." Yelu Zongheng said.
After sweeping away his previous dejection, his momentum rose, and a confident and domineering aura returned to him.
