Chapter 77 The Failed Li Qing
There were dead horses outside the shield wall. Li Qing was glad that he did not fall on the Resistant Horse or the Triangle Thorn, but fell on the belly of a dead war horse. A heavy blow squeezed out all the internal organs of the war horse that had broken a hole in his stomach.
Hearing the sound of the shield wall behind him in Krakela, Li Qing didn't have time to think about it, jumped into the dense grass in front, and then crawled into the distance like a snake.
The prisoner ran away, and the Marquis of Yu completely collapsed. He even forgot about the Xixia people who were attacking him. After ordering all the incendiary bombs to throw at the Xixia people, he opened the shield wall from the west and went to pursue Li Qing himself.
The incendiary bomb exploded into a sea of fire in front of the shield wall. The Xixia people who were lucky enough to approach the shield city became fire in an instant.
The Huo Horse and the Huo Man jumped around for a few times and then fell to the ground. This scene was very familiar to Wei Ge Ning Ling. Even though he bit his teeth squeaked, he still issued an order to retreat. There were too few people around him, and fighting positions with the Song army was a loss.
When Yu Hou Peng Liang rode a horse out of the shield formation, his heart immediately became cold when he looked at the vast grassland in front of him.
The grassland in summer is a real wind and wind that shows cattle and sheep. In just a short time, Li Qing's traces are no longer visible.
Peng Liang's mouth was so bitter that he knew better than anyone else what his failure this time meant. Li Qing killed the son of the Grand Marshal, and the Grand Marshal wanted Li Qing to die. The military supervisor hoped to use Li Qing to give his brothers a cute wife and son.
Logically speaking, everyone is fighting, and the best solution is to avenge your grudges, but gold is yellow, and people's eyes are black. After gold enters the eyes, the eyes become yellow. Brotherhood naturally needs to be left behind. Even if the son of the Grand Marshal dies, it will not stop everyone from getting promoted and making money.
Now, everything is empty.
"Marty Yu, discover Li Qing's traces!"
The limping team, the Wu Fang, came out of the grass and pointed to a clear trace and said to Peng Liang that at this time, everyone was a grasshopper on a rope and no one could escape. The only solution was to catch Li Qing again.
Peng Liang looked back at Shield City that had already calmed down. He finally remembered that he was the commander of this army. At this time, it was the biggest thing to ensure that his brothers survived.
He took a long breath and said to Wu Fang: "Give you a hundred brothers, and I will catch Li Qing before dark."
Wu Fang did not refuse and followed his team of men and horses along the traces of falling grass.
Peng Liang returned to the camp to reorganize the team and checked the casualties. After all, twenty-three of the five hundred brothers died in battle, and more than fifty were injured. The uninjured brothers were shrinking the shield formation. The general formation stood on the high slope, waiting for the Yu Hou to continue to give orders.
The Xixia people in the distance did not leave. They were very surprised that the Song army did not pursue. They originally planned to kill a Wei Ge Ning Ling who had shot back, but saw that there was no chance to take advantage of it. They sighed and led their subordinates to the distance.
The Song army's gunpowder is not that easy to grab. Although he had already experienced it before, now he personally led the team to attack, and he also ended up losing troops and losing generals, and he had nothing to say.
Whether it is Yun Zheng or Zhuangfu, they pay great attention to the logistics line. As long as the army transports supplies from thousands of miles away to the front line, their equipment is generally very well-equipped, and most of the generals selected are powerful generals who have experienced battles. Their number is too small, and it is very difficult to seize food from their mouths.
A horse's hoof stepped over Li Qing's head and almost stepped on his head. Li Qing could see clearly the hoof nailed on the horse's feet.
His body was buried under a piece of peeling grass. If he didn't look carefully, anyone would think there was a rustle bun there.
It was a big joke to want to run over a war horse on the grassland, so Li Qing decided to lie under the grass until dark before talking about it.
Seeing that the Song army seemed to have found some other traces, the team led was driving the horse forward, and the other Song people formed a huge arc like a huge net and rushed to the west.
The little leopard poked out his little head from Li Qing's arms and was carefully pressed back by Li Qing. The little guy was very well-behaved, and he didn't say a word since he started running away.
When it was almost dark, the Song people were coming back with the Song soldiers. The team was tied to its neck with a yellow sheep and half a piece of wood tied to its hind legs. It was obvious that this thing was the one who led the Song army to track it.
Li Qing suddenly remembered the Liao people who escaped first. He was shocked and looked around carefully. He and he were running in the same direction. It was the most suitable place to hide here. If the Song people did not find the Liao people in front, then he would probably be near him...
The sky turned completely dark, and a bright moon shone brightly on the grassland. The camp of the Song army in the distance was brightly lit, and the bonfire in the middle was burning ten feet high.
The noise of the day was gradually covered by the night, and the traces of war attracted countless predatory beasts, and green eyes kept appearing near them. The Song army could not find themselves, which did not mean that these beasts could not find themselves either.
At this time, this place has become a world of wild beasts.
"Stop hiding, I am not an enemy, I am also a Han person who escaped from the Song camp. Brother, don't be nervous, I'll sit up now, can you sit up too?
If this continues, the beasts will kill us, and we will have no meaning at all when we run out."
Li Qing was speaking Khitan dialect, perhaps the stuttering Khitan dialect played a role. Less than three feet away from him, a black shadow slowly sat up. When the moonlight shone on his face, Li Qing finally saw his face clearly. This was a very young face, the Liao man who escaped through the Song camp during the day.
"Is there anything to eat?" the Liao people asked in a hoarse voice.
Li Qing took out the dried cake from his arms and threw it over. The Liao man reached out to catch the cake and immediately swallowed it.
"Where are you from? How do you be with Xixia people?"
The young man looked at Li Qing and said vaguely: "I was caught by them."
Seeing that the young man had finished eating, Li Qing hugged his waist and walked across a grass and turned to him and said, "If you want to go, leave now. If you can't find a hiding place like the woods at dawn, we have to lie in the grass for a day, and I don't want to be bitten by insects anymore."
The young man smiled and said, "You can't leave now unless you want to feed the wolf. The grassland wolf will return to the nest in the second half of the night, and then the moon will disappear, and that is a good time to run away.
Are you a Han Chinese?"
Li Qing sat back and asked himself that he was not as familiar with the young man in front of him. Since they were all fleeing people, it would be much better to be with him at this time.
"Yes, my name is Li Qing, I was caught by the Song people. Where are you?"
"Xilamulun, I was defeated by the Song army in Xijing, so I wandered in the wilderness, but was caught by the Xixia people and helped them become suicide squads."
"Do you want to go there? No place here is safe. People from Song, Liao, and Xixia will not be polite as long as they see us."
Xilamulun laughed softly and said, "I am very satisfied with the current situation. I just want to go back to my hometown and graze at the foot of Laolang Mountain. I will find a girl to give birth to a baby for me. What about Song, Liao, and Xixia people have nothing to do with me."
"The Song people will go to your hometown, and even if they don't go now, they will go in the future. Believe me, the Song people's greed for land is endless."
Shilamulun shook his head and said, "They cannot occupy all the land. There is always a place where we shepherd herding herds in the world. Their weapons are so terrible that we can't beat. Since they want land, we will give it to him and go north. There is so much land there."
Li Qing looked up at the bright moon in the sky and couldn't help but want to laugh. What Xilamulun said is indeed correct. The Song people are powerful nowadays, and they are even stronger than any period in history. Those terrifying weapons are no longer fast horses, long swords, and white feather arrows that can survive by the enemy.
I changed several tactics, and it turned out that my steps were too small. The earliest cavalry was broken by Yun Zhengyu and came to the rock beach. Later, the camel soldiers even struggled to deal with some of the scattered soldiers of the Song people. But now, the Poxi Army, which he had finally formed, had no power to fight back under the raid of the Song army.
Or should I go to herd sheep with this young man? (To be continued.)
