Fu Song

Chapter 490 Evacuation
Yeluhuan looked at the number of casualties just presented on the table, his head was buzzing.

If he had a telepathic connection with Starling Wanyan, he would definitely feel sympathy at this moment.

The joy that Dongshoujiang City was breached did not last for a day, and the huge casualties in the city made Yeluhuan furious.

Yelu Changsheng, Yelu Changfeng, Su Hu and other generals took turns to fight, and groups of Liao army soldiers rushed into the dilapidated and dilapidated city.

Then, a considerable part was carried out.

There are many more, not even the corpses dared to snatch them back.

Standing on the dilapidated city gate, looking down at the military city, the flames are everywhere, the smoke is rising, and it is unknown how many Western troops are hidden in the ruined walls.

"Pei Jun, what do you think we should do now?" Yeluhuan's eyes were red, his face was ashen, and his expression was ferocious.

Pei Jun, who used to be the servant of the South Courtyard, is now just a staff member without any status under Yeluhuan's tent.

Because the Pei family helped Yeluxi compete with Yelujun for the position, after losing, it goes without saying.

Yeluxi was just expelled to Koryo to be a figurehead governor, and was watched closely by others.

Pei's family was wiped out.

And Pei Jun fled all the way to Yeluhuan before he settled down.

In the early years, his father had saved Yeluhuan's life, and Yeluhuan remembered his old love and accepted him as a lost dog.

As for Yelujun or Xiao Chuo, for Yeluhuan, who has always been a die-hard supporter, this bit of face is still to be given.

Besides, Pei Jun, who is alone, can't do much.

What's more, he was still under Yeluhuan's hands!
Yeluhuan would not give him any real power.

In order to better win over Yeluhuan, Yelujun even generously sent Pei Jun's wife and children over.

But Pei Jun has real talents.

Although there is no actual position here at Yeluhuan, and they are only making suggestions under Yeluhuan's tent, after this guy came, the entire government affairs on Xijing Road became more orderly than before.

This also made Yelvhuan trust this person even more.

Although the officials are not given, the power is there.

As long as it is decent in face, Zhongjing will naturally not say much.

Those two actually didn't put Pei Jun in their eyes either.

"It depends on what the governor thinks!" Pei Jun laughed.

"What am I thinking?" Yeluhuan said angrily, "What time is it, and you still act as if nothing happened?"

"Governor, no matter how fierce the enemy is, they are just trying to hold out for time, and they will eventually perish. Of course I will act as if nothing happened!" Pei Jun said.

"However, the casualties they caused me are unbearable." Yeluhuan said, "It's not right to keep them. How can we leave such a group of desperadoes on our back road? And send someone to monitor them." They will also involve a lot of my troops."

"Governor, if you want to destroy them, you have to continue to attack at all costs. No matter how fierce they are, they are human beings. Dongshou Surrendered City is only that big. If you push them flat like this, you will eventually be able to kill them." Pei Jun said.

Yeluhuan sighed: "Then how many people do I have to die? This damn city is built with twists and turns. Is it possible that if I destroy them, I have to bulldoze these houses one by one? How much time will this waste? Every time here One day of delay, Zhongshou surrendered city will have one more day to strengthen the city wall, stock up on supplies, mobilize more reinforcements, and make it harder to fight."

"Then let them go!" Pei Jun said with a smile: "A group of remnants of defeated generals, letting them escape can also effectively shake the morale of the surrendered city and let them know the prestige of our Daliao."

"I'm afraid we want to let them go, but they don't dare to go!" Yelu Changsheng said, "That Chen Qiao knows very well that once they leave this area and reach the plains, they will be crushed by our cavalry Son."

"Does the governor really let them go?" Pei Jun asked.

Yeluhuan spread his hands: "It's okay to let them go, but how can we win their trust? Our two families have no trust in each other."

"Then I'm willing to make this trip!" Pei Jun said with a smile: "I would like to use this steady tongue to persuade the other party to give up here and retreat to Zhongshou Jiangcheng."

"Aren't you afraid that Chen Qiao will chop off your head?" Yelu Changsheng said leisurely.

"As long as the governor really wants to let them go, I have a way to save my life." Pei Jun smiled.

Chen Qiao was gnawing on a lamb's hind leg.

The whole person looks very embarrassed from the outside. There are scars everywhere on the armor, and some places are still deflated, but the spirit is good. There are about [-] soldiers of the Western Army who are sitting or lying in this yard. Feast on it.

There is no shortage of food in the city.

There are less than [-] people in the entire city, and those who can fight until this moment are basically veterans of the Western Army.

Ordinary young adults and civilian husbands are basically dead.

Some died in the battle with the Liao people, and some surrendered, and were driven by the Liao army to attack the Western army, and were killed by the Western army, which is the most aggrieved.

Chen Qiao didn't blame them either. This is war, and human life is worthless. Those who want to live often die earlier.

These old soldiers knew that to flee was suicide.

There is a plain outside the city of Dongshoujiang, and there is nothing to hide. Even if the Liao people let them run overnight, they can still catch up with them easily in the daytime.

They can probably run dozens of miles a night with the two soles of their feet, and this speed is already sky-high.

But for war horses, it's just a matter of time.

Therefore, instead of being chased to death like a rabbit on the wasteland, it is better to struggle to the death here.

In this city, they are familiar!

Where there are secret passages, where there are ordnance, where there is food, where there is water, they know it all.

"General Chen, someone has come in with a white flag!" A soldier ran over with a sheep bone in his mouth, his mouth full of oil, and mumbled, "Brothers, I don't know what's going on, do you want to be him?"

"Flying the white flag?" Chen Qiao laughed: "Could it be that the old dog Yeluhuan wants to come down on me? Isn't this a waste of effort? But brothers, it's idle anyway, how about watching a play?" ?”

"Very good." A group of soldiers yelled.

This is a bunch of real unprepared guys who don't care about anything anymore.

Holding the white flag high, Pei Jun walked forward in silence until a soldier of the Western Army appeared in front of him.

Following this soldier, he walked around to a yard, and saw a general sitting cross-legged on a millstone, drinking wine and gnawing on a leg of lamb.

"Pei Jun, I have met General Chen Qiao!" He bowed his hands in salute.

"Pei Jun?" Chen Qiao was slightly taken aback. He seemed to have heard of this name before, but after turning it around in his mind, he really couldn't remember it, so he didn't bother to think about it.

"You are a Han, and you actually work for the people of the Liao Kingdom?" Chen Qiao looked at the other party sarcastically, "Look at you, you are also a scholar, and you have read all the books into the stomach of a dog?"

Pei Jun grinned, but he didn't bother to argue with the general of the Western Army in front of him. Even if he talked about it for a few days and nights, he couldn't explain why.

"The Pei family was born in Youyan, and it has been passed down for a hundred years. There is no Han master going to recover the old place." He said indifferently: "General Chen, there is no need to talk about these gossips. Just talk about what is in front of you."

"In front of me?" Chen Qiao sneered: "Did Yeluhuan send you here to persuade me to surrender? That would be too small to underestimate me and my brothers. If you have the guts, you will come and take my life. It's real." I killed us without any complaints, and I, Chen Qiao, didn't complain."

Pei Jun shook his head: "Our governor deeply admires the bravery of General Chen and the loyalty of the soldiers in the city. This time, I, Daliao, sent troops here just to recover the lost land that was robbed by you. Governor Yelu did not want to cause more killings, so Well, as long as you withdraw from the East Surrendered City, the Governor is willing to let you survive and let you retreat to the west of Montenegro."

There was a roar of laughter in the yard.

"Does the old dog Yelu think that we are fools?" Chen Qiao laughed wildly: "As soon as we leave here, we will die without a place to die. The key is that we will die in vain, and we won't be able to get more people to be buried with us."

"Who is the governor? Now that he has said this, he will naturally keep his promise!" Pei Jun said.

"I, Chen Qiao, am just a small person, but I can't believe the words of such a big person!" Chen Qiao said coldly.

"How can I, Pei Jun, be willing to be a hostage and accompany you all the way to a place you think is safe?"

Chen Qiao was stunned for a while, but suddenly remembered who the other party was.

"Pei Jun, Minister of the Southern Courtyard! Pei Jun of Yunzhou Peishi who was exterminated by the Emperor of Liao Kingdom?"

Pei Jun nodded: "Exactly! Governor Yelu has an old relationship with my family and owes my family kindness, so he took me in. Now I am under the tent of Governor Yelu. I can keep you safe."

Chen Qiao shook her head: "You can't. To put it bluntly, Yeluhuan can abandon you like a rag. You are insignificant now. If you change to Yelu Changsheng or Yelu Changfeng, you can still consider it."

Pei Jun showed a hint of embarrassment, looked at Chen Qiao fiercely, and said after a long while: "Well, I'll go back and replace one of them later, but before this, we might as well leave the one you evacuated." Let's discuss the details carefully, can we find a quiet place, let's have a good talk!"

"Nothing is impossible!" Chen Qiao raised her eyebrows.

The next day, Yelu Changfeng became a hostage in this team and retreated with Chen Qiao and others.

Yelu Changfeng is Yeluhuan's nephew, Yeluhuan can abandon Pei Jun, but it is absolutely impossible to abandon him.

Yelu Changfeng was also quite courageous, and he entered Dongshoujiang City boldly, which made Chen Qiao admire him very much, and he was very polite to him.

One thousand eight hundred and sixty-seven people, plus the twenty-five people lying on stretchers, was the rest of the East Surrendered City.

Yeluhuan kept his promise and did not pursue it.

Ten days later, Ye Liqi led [-] cavalry to rush over from Heishui, and picked up Chen Qiao and the others.

Yelu Changfeng left.

With his departure, the two armies have once again turned into a hostile situation, and an attack may be launched at any time.

But at this time, the Western Army has nothing to fear.

Zhongshoujiang City has long been turned into an empty city.

The Western Army had no intention of holding on here at all, but withdrew all its troops to the West Surrendered City in one go.

This was beyond Yeluhuan's expectations.

The Western Army's style of play, which doesn't care about the gains and losses of a city and a pool, made him more careful.

After all, the Western Army has suffered enough over the years.

When he arrived at Zhongshoujiang City, he paused, waiting for more grain, grass and weapons to arrive, and waiting for the battle situation at Xuanlei Village.

If I go forward, once Xiao Siwen loses at Xuanlei Village, I will be hit in the middle by Xiao Ding, which will be uncomfortable.

Yeluhuan also saw the battle situation at Xuanlei Village. More than [-] Pishi troops were killed, which made him speechless.

That was no ordinary Pishi army, there were thousands of Jurchens in it.

It can be said that the Liao army has the strongest combat power, but it did not get the slightest benefit against the iron kite.

Next, although Xiao Siwen took a defensive position to force Xiao Ding to take the initiative to attack, what if Xiao Ding succeeds?This young leader of the Western Army cannot be treated with common sense.

Yeluhuan stayed in Zhongshoujiang City and refused to take a step forward, which disappointed the entire Western Army senior management.

Xiao Ding, Zhang Yuan, Baba Yangwei and other senior officials of the Western Army had already formulated a huge battle plan to defeat Xiao Siwen and then wipe out Yeluhuan, but now because of Yeluhuan's cautiousness and refusal to go beyond the threshold, it has become impossible to implement up.

And this plan is because at this time the former leader of Beidoubu, Mo Gusi, had already contacted the Beidubu tribe in the Liao army, and successfully persuaded these tribes who were not living comfortably in Liao to come to the rear. Give the Liao people a severe knife.

People mature.

Once Xiao Ding wins a decisive victory on West Road, Yelvhuan will inevitably shrink back like a frightened rabbit.

"It's a pity!" Zhang Yuan said regretfully: "But with such a harvest as Pei Jun, when we attack Xijing Road in the future, we will have a powerful boost."

Pei Jun, the secret talk with Chen Qiao in Dongshoujiang City was not about how to let them escape, but that he wanted to be the internal support of the Western Army.

Hundreds of members of the whole family were killed by Yelu Jun, why would Pei Jun not want revenge?
It's just that he doesn't like Song people.

In his opinion, if there is really hope for revenge, Xiao Ding may be his only choice.

In Xuanlei Village, after the confrontation between the two sides lasted for more than half a month, the Western Army finally began a large-scale deployment of troops, and a tentative attack also began.

Everything went as Xiao Siwen expected, and the Western Army couldn't afford it.

The entire Yanjun Division of Heishui Town could not afford the consumption of tens of thousands of troops. Transporting food from Xingqing Mansion and other places was really a heavy burden for the army.

Therefore, Xiao Ding can only fight quickly.

Xiao Siwen weaved a big net, waiting for Xiao Ding to bump into it.

Xiao Ding is ready to throw himself into the trap.

He really can't afford it.

If it weren't for the existence of the Beizhi Buren, Xiao Ding would have retreated strategically.

Directly choose to give up Yanjun Division of Heishui Town.

Lure Xiao Siwen to lead the army towards Xingqing Mansion.

The long front will bring him countless fighters.

But now that there was a knife that was quietly on the back of the Liao people, he decided to take a risk.
