Across the Water Margin: Officials of Ximen

The cavalrymen who reported the message saw Xiao Qian, and shouted in haste.

"Shut up! Hugh the noise! ​​What's going on in the city?"

Xiao Qian saw clearly that one of the people who came was a general he had brought from Nanjing Road, and angrily reprimanded him.

At this moment, Xiao Qian already had a premonition that something happened to Zhongjing Dading Mansion, otherwise the general who was ordered to defend the city would not leave his post and come to Enzhou City.

However, it is easy to disturb the morale of the army by shouting so loudly.

The reason why Xiao Qian rushed forward to meet him on horseback was because he was afraid that the Liao army under the city would be shaken when they heard the military situation behind.

Chapter 758 The Golden Army Cleverly Captures the Dading Mansion

Xiao Qian stared at the person coming, and said in a deep voice: "Slave of King Xiao, this king ordered you to strictly guard the Zhongjing Dading Mansion, why did you come here? Could it be that the Zhongjing Dading Mansion was lost? Speak in a low voice, don't disturb the army! "

The future general will be a tall and powerful general of the Xi clan, named Xiao Wang's servant, and he is also a brave general under Xiao Qian's subordinates.

Xiao Qian was the king of Xi, and all the generals of the Xi clan in the Liao Kingdom obeyed his orders.This time, they fought in the ancestral land of the Xi clan, and all the strong generals of the Xi clan in General Xiao Qian brought them to Dading Mansion in Zhongjing.

This servant of King Xiao was a general of the Xi clan who stayed in Dading Mansion in Zhongjing when Xiao Qian went out to fight.

Xiao Qian, the king of the Fourth Army, was good at riding and shooting when he was young, and he was also a famous warrior.But now he is an old man in his 60s and [-]s, and he no longer relies on his muscles and bones.

It's okay to lead troops to fight, but it's up to these young generals under their command to charge forward.

Xiao Wang's servants and the few knights behind him were blood-stained and looked exhausted.

Xiao Wang's servant jumped off his horse, knelt down in front of Xiao Qian's horse, and said sadly: "Your Majesty, the city of Dading is lost! The last general will fight to the death to report to the King. These are the only two thousand men under his command. Please, Your Majesty. Go, don't fall into the siege of the Jin army!"

Although Xiao Qian already had an ominous premonition, but when he really heard the exact news from Xiao Wang's slaves, he asked unwillingly: "How could this be? My king has left behind an army of [-]. How can you capture my Zhongjing Dadingfu City?"

"My lord, there are traitors in our army!

The Jin army that attacked Dading Mansion at dawn today was led by Wanyan Zonghan, and his guide was the traitor Yelu Yujian!Someone in the Khitan army responded to Yeluyu's observation, opened the city gate and let the Jin army into the city.

The Khitan army in the city couldn't tell the enemy from ourselves, some attacked and killed each other, and some abandoned the city and fled south, allowing the Jin army to capture the city without any effort.

The last general was worried that the king would be attacked by the enemy, so he did not flee south, but led the army to break through to the north, and came to report to the king.

That Wanyan Zonghan's army is so fierce, the last general met Jin general Wanyan Xiyin outside the north gate, and fought with him.Now only these few sons followed me out of the encirclement.Your Majesty, hurry up, or it will be too late! "

Xiao Wang's family slave anxiously urged Xiao Qian.

"Hey~ Yeluyu sees, do you really want to help the Jurchens destroy Daliao for personal revenge?"

Xiao Qian let out a long sigh, with mixed feelings in his heart, he didn't know whether it was right or wrong to let Yeluyu have a look.

Zhongjing Dading Mansion is only tens of miles away from Enzhou City, several slaves of King Xiao's family escaped, not necessarily without the Jin army following them.

Xiao Qian knew in his heart that although Wanyan Zonghan's army should be busy occupying and taking over the Dading Mansion in Zhongjing now, but hearing that he is good at using troops, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not lead the troops back north by surprise.

There is no way to annihilate the Wanyan Zongxiong army in Enzhou City.

Xiao Qian acted decisively, determined to lead the army to transfer, and get rid of the unfavorable situation of being attacked by the enemy.

This Zhongjing Road is the hometown of the Xi people, and there are many Xi people tribes in each valley.As King Xi, Xiao Qian could gather tens of thousands of troops wherever he went and raised his arms.

Therefore, although Gaozhou, Enzhou, Zhongjing Dadingfu and other cities were lost, Xiao Qian still had the capital to deal with the Jin army on the vast land of Zhongjing Road.

Xiao Qian judged that after the Jin army captured the Dading Mansion in Zhongjing, the next plan should be to go south to attack the Xijin Mansion area in Nanjing.

Therefore, Xiao Qian decided to lead the main force to retreat to the southwest, bypassing Dading Mansion occupied by the Jin army, going south from Guihua County along Mameng Mountain, retreating to the front line of Zezhou and Bei'an Prefecture, and then summoning the tribesmen of nearby Xiling The soldiers resisted the Jin army and defended the Nanjing Road.

However, this Gaozhou, Enzhou and other places cannot just be thrown to the Jurchens of the Kingdom of Jin!

Xiao Qian looked at Xiao Wang's servant and said to him: "Wang's slave, you are also a warrior of our Xi clan, how can you just stand by and watch me being enslaved by the Jurchen barbarians? Since your headquarters has lost all casualties, then this The king will give you a warrant. You go to Gaozhou and secretly gather all the troops of our Xiren tribes, and after the Jurchen main force goes south, raise troops to take back Gaozhou and Enzhou."

"The last general takes orders!"

Xiao Wang's family slave simply agreed.

The valleys and fields are full of Xi people's tribes. The Jin army only occupied a few cities, and their control over the Zhongjing Road is still too weak. Xiao Wang's slaves are very confident in completing Xiao Qian's mission.

"Slave Wang, wait for these horses to run tired. I will give you this horse as a gift, and let your subordinates change to some better horses before leaving. Be careful on this journey north."

Xiao Qian was as careful as a hair, and ordered Dun Dun, the servant of King Xiao's family.

"Xie Xiao, the great king, the last general will be a hero, and he will not hesitate to die!"

Seeing that Xiao Qian gave him his BMW as a gift, Wang Xiao's servant was moved to tears.

"Slave of the Wang family, this king does not want you to die, but wants you to live well, to help this king regain the lost land, and expel the Jurchen barbarians, do you understand?"

Xiao Qian helped up Xiao Wang's servant, and handed over the reins of his war horse to his hand.

"Your Majesty, you will go at last! Swords and arrows have no eyes, and your Majesty should cherish your precious body!"

The military situation was urgent, and Xiao Wang's servants did not hesitate. After changing horses with a few soldiers under his command, they galloped away towards the distance.

Xiao Qian returned to the army and immediately gave the order to stop the attack and gather the whole army.

After the troops of Chao Gai and Dong Ping were finished, they were arranged by Xiao Qian to line up outside the south gate of Enzhou City to prevent the Jin army in the city from taking advantage of the situation.

"My lord, why are you withdrawing your troops! Our army is about to break through the enemy's formation!"

After Yishi Bajin and other generals retreated, they asked puzzledly.

"Soldiers and soldiers, just now we came to report that a large group of Jin troops were found in the Lindu Pavilion in the west of Enzhou City, and the target was directed at Dading Mansion in Zhongjing. Our army must immediately march to the southwest and follow behind that Jin army. Defeat the enemy army and defend Zhongjing Dadingfu."

Xiao Qian was afraid that the news of the fall of Dading Mansion would shake the morale of the army and he would not be able to withdraw the army smoothly, so he concealed it from all the generals under his command.

When the generals of the Liao army heard that they were going to follow the other troops who were chasing the Jin army, they immediately organized their troops and retreated to the southwest under the leadership of Xiao Qian.

Before leaving, Xiao Qian quietly sent a cavalry to go north, and informed Yelu Aguzhe's army to retreat to Ma Mengshan, Guihua County.

The cavalry bypassed Enzhou City and rushed north for a few miles, and saw Yelushude coming south with people.

The people from the two places met on the road, and after a brief conversation, they learned that Xiao Qian's army had withdrawn from Enzhou City. Yelv Shude immediately took the cavalry to Maliiling, and informed the general Yelu Aguzhe of the new military order.

Watching the Liao army outside the city retreat slowly and orderly, the Jin army in the city burst into bursts of cheers.

Seeing the Liao army going away, Wanyan Zongxiong did not send troops out of the city to pursue them.

After fighting fiercely for several hours, my army has successfully completed the task of luring the enemy, and it is time to recuperate before preparing for the next battle.

Seeing the Liao army retreating to the southwest, Wanyan Zongxiong understood that Wanyan Zonghan's army must have succeeded, and Zhongjing Dading Mansion was already owned by the Dajin Kingdom.

Next, what Wanyan Zongxiong has to do is to appease the various tribes of the Liao Kingdom near Enzhou City and make them sincerely submit to the Dajin Kingdom.
