Chapter 938
Hundreds of people suddenly emerged from the dark woods, all of whom were as brave as tigers. Even when they fought desperately against the Liao army, they would not be at all disadvantages. Especially when they first entered the enemy group, they would be like tigers and sheep. A large Zen staff as thick as a peacock, waving the tiger and tigers were like wind, and they were really flying and falling, and there was almost no enemy on the way forward.
Next to him, one of them held two swords and walked like flying, killing blood splattering, like mowing grass, and screaming without stopping. In comparison, the few people following them seemed much more restrained, but the long fork of the Park knife rose and fell, but the Liao army was defeated and could only retreat continuously, and there was no resistance.
After seeing this scene, Sun Tu's face was filled with surprise. His eyes narrowed and his roar was already: "Qingzhou Army, kill the enemy!" He didn't care about the minor injuries on his body, and had already swung his sword to kill again.
This roar once again boosted the morale of the Song army. In addition, with such support, the remaining Qingzhou soldiers were all fighting and fighting back with all their might. In just a short moment, the Liao army was squeezed into a very small range, and the number of people was continuously reduced, killing and injured everywhere.
The head general of his family was killed, and the Song army suddenly had a group of reinforcements. All this attack on the Liao army was undoubtedly extremely fatal. At this point, they could not even take out the courage to resist. As the two sides attacked from left to right, one by one, one by one, the remaining two hundred people became fish on the chopping board, and they were killed and injured in a blink of an eye, and almost no one left was left to live.
When Sun Tu stopped, there were only two or three people left of the Liao army to stand. All of them were falling comrades around them. The eyes and faces of these people were completely covered by horror. No more ruthlessness was seen as the Khitans. Their bodies trembled even more like dead leaves in the autumn wind. No more call. As the Song army pressed on them, they had obediently dropped their weapons, raised their hands, and shouted for forgiveness.
It was not until this time that Sun Tu smiled and looked at the old and new friends who were stroking over, and said with confusion: "Brother Lu, second brother Wu, brother Fan, how could you appear here together?"
It turned out that the sudden appearance of the troops was the elite Qingzhou army led by the old brothers Sun Tu, including Luda, Wu Song, etc., and Fan Qi and Zhao Huang and others who had promised him that he would come to join the army after he had settled his family.
Finally, Li Guanghuarong came up to meet. He and Fan Qi fired arrows in time to save Sun Tu at that moment. It can be said that Sun Tu's life should not be lost this time, but God blessed him to send them here in time. But at the same time, Sun Tu's question was also a big deal. The two people didn't know each other, so why did they get together? Especially Lu Da and the others, if they set out from Jiangnan, they would never be able to come to the north at this time, let alone the current wilderness not far from Zhuozhou.
Lu Da and Wu Song both laughed and looked at Rong again: "Let me let Brother Hua Rong say that, it's probably his credit. But this matter has been a long story."
"Oh?" Sun Tu blinked curiously, then waved his hand and said, "Since that's the case, then it's not too late to do what's happening in front of you." The so-called things in front of you are naturally to deal with the dead and living Liao army. With his order, the Qingzhou soldiers quickly became busy, cleaned up the battlefield, rescued their injured brothers, and finally killed the enemies, and moved the bodies aside. At the same time, they tied the prisoners with ropes and guarded them.
At the same time, the camp became more and more lively, and many brothers reunited. Even though a bloody battle had just happened, everyone's mood was still rising. So they made the fire on the spot, took out food, talked about their farewells, and made the mountains and forests before dawn like a daytime market.
Sun Tu did not stop the rare moment of relaxation for his brothers. He just called Lu Da and others to come, and while sharing food with them, he asked about his previous doubts again.
This time, Hua Rong was finally able to tell everything carefully: "The general doesn't know anything. In fact, my brothers set off from Jiangnan to Bianjing before receiving the order to transfer the court, and knew halfway through the road that you were ordered to fight the north. And we went to Bianjing to wish the general a happy new year and at the same time, we reported the progress of Jiangnan in the past two years truthfully."
"So that's it." Sun Tu was not in a hurry to ask about the development of Jiangnan over the past two years, but said, "So you can appear in the north so quickly? But how could you come here with Brother Fan and the others? "
"This is because Yanmen Pass refused to let us enter. Although we had already taken out the relevant token, we still refused to believe our identity and arranged us outside the city." Hua Rong smiled bitterly: "It is said that they were afraid that there would be a detailed task among us, just to prevent it..."
Sun Tu was stunned and shook his head without feeling laughed. This was because of him. When he captured the Liao spies at Yanmen Pass that day, he repeatedly ordered the defenders to strictly control the guards in the future and not give anyone the chance to enter and exit the city at will. However, unexpectedly, this time it affected his confidants, making it impossible for them to pass through the gate.
But now it seems that this happened to be a coincidence. Sure enough, Hua Rong said again: "At that time, we were eager to go north to meet with the general, so I thought of finding another way to go around Yanmen Pass, and also looking for a guide nearby. After all, we have never been here, and we are not good at finding those roads hidden in the mountains. I don't want to find this search, but we really found Brother Fan and others. They also wanted to bypass Yanmen Pass and go north..."
Fan Qi immediately answered his words and said, "General Sun, my brothers have promised that as long as you settle down, your family will come to the north to join you and kill foreign enemies together. Our lives are saved by you, and we should do our best to help you, so we rushed over after no worries! Only then did we think of finding another way out."
Sun Tu smiled: "So you all got together, took a long way to go, and appeared here?" He felt even more moved in his heart. All this was really a coincidence. If it weren't for all the causes, he would have died under Xiao Yanping's arrow.
"We were already going to climb over the forest in front, but the scouts who were left behind found someone tracking the traces left by us. Just in case, we decided to look back. Unexpectedly, we saw that General, you were in danger and were besieged by several times of the enemy, so we didn't think much about it and rescued him." Hua Rong said again, but Sun Tu was amazed again.
It turns out that there is this key. What I sent someone to track down before was not the Liao people, but Hua Rong and others who walked into the mountain first, and they later noticed their whereabouts. Obviously, they were indeed careful enough. Their original intention was to launch a surprise attack on the possible enemy behind them, but in the end they saved themselves and caught the Liao army off guard, which was considered to have achieved the established goal.
After understanding all the causes and consequences, Sun Tu sighed again: "This time it's really thanks to you here, otherwise, my brothers and I will die here."
"By the way, General, why are you leading troops here? And there are only a few brothers around you?" Wu Song raised the questions that all of them had from the beginning.
As his brother, Sun Tu naturally had something to say, so he told him what he had happened along the way. Whether it was killing Gao Qiu, seizing power Tong Guan and killing a draw with the Liao army, he finally explained in detail the current dilemma between the two armies and the purpose of his visit to Zhuozhou to meet Guo Yaoshi...
These things are much more dangerous and exciting than their experience, which made Lu Dawusong and the others dumbfounded. After a while, they all sighed: "The general is worthy of being a general. Everything he does can shake the world. I admire him!"
Sun Tu waved his hand and stopped their flattery, and then asked with concern: "By the way, do you say you want to report the changes in Jiangnan in the past two years to me, but what progress has happened?"
"The changes in our Jiangnan in the past two years have been great." As soon as we mentioned this, Lu Da became interested and said with a smile: "Since we completely controlled the military and political power of various places in Jiangnan as the general, we have eliminated all the previous tyrants and miscellaneous taxes. We also relied on the grain hoarded by Fang La's anti-army army to rebuild our homes and reclaim the land from the beginning. In just two years, the people in Jiangnan have returned home and lived and worked in peace. Last year alone, the money and food collected were enough to make the governments in various places have no worries about food and use, and there is still a lot of surplus to support soldiers."
Sun Tu nodded, which was long before he expected. Jiangnan was the richest area in the world. At that time, it was just because the imperial court exploited excessively and corrupt officials were everywhere, and a flower and stone sect that harmed the people was created, which led to the misfortune of the people. But now, all the bad policies have been cleared, and under Sun Tu's instruction, the tax supply to the court has been greatly reduced. In this way, the military and civilian areas in Jiangnan were naturally very rich.
But these words came to Fan Qi and the others' ears, which surprised and yearned for them. You must know that their lives in Daming Mansion were very tight, and I really wanted to envy and cry when I imagined the wealth of Jiangnan.
