retaliate

Chapter 1048 Mud-foot Giant
It's snowing in the far north now.

The thin snowflakes were falling lazily, and there were corpses and bloodstains everywhere in the small town.

The wild dog ate something in the city, sticky blood was dripping from the corner of its mouth, and its eyeballs were red.

Squads of Shegu warriors wearing Beiliao armor walked through the city, and they could hear miserable howls from time to time.

Axibao led a group of cavalry into the city.

"Third Prince." A general greeted him, "The city has been cleaned up."

Ah Xibao frowned, "Killed so many people?"

The general kicked away a severed arm at his feet, and said with a smile: "The siege was too brutal, the warriors must have a place to vent their anger. However, there are all women."

"Hahahaha!"

Amid wild laughter, several women were escorted here with messy clothes.

Ah Xibao narrowed his eyes, "Don't do any evil!"

The general smiled, "The eldest prince nodded."

Shegu Khan Diesi had four sons, the eldest son: Guba, the second son, Zuo Han, the third son, Axibao, and the fourth son, Bedejia.

Axibao asked, "Where is father?"

Deji behind him said, "The Khan is in the camp outside the city."

"go!"

Ah Xibao took more than a thousand riders to the camp outside the city.

Those Shegu warriors refused to rest in the camp, their energy was enviable.

"It's the third prince!"

Someone saw Axibao.

The warriors watched him silently.

There is respect in the eyes.

The third prince, Axibao, is both wise and brave, and he always leads the army to achieve his goal at the lowest cost.

Outside Khan Diesi's big tent, the guard held his head high, "Third Prince."

"Is father here?"

"exist!"

The guard went in to report.

Come out later, "Third Prince, please."

Dies looked a little pale, wearing a fur cloak and a few jewel rings on his hands, drinking tea.

The eldest prince, Gu Ba, was sitting beside him, talking with a smile.

When Ah Xibao came in, the white and fat Gu Ba, who was rarely seen in Shegu's department, smiled and said: "Ah Xibao is back."

Ah Xibao nodded and stepped forward to salute.

"I don't like the etiquette of the Beiliao people, it's too troublesome. I heard it's all from Chang'an?" Diesi asked.

"Yes!"

Diesi smiled and said, "I'll look for an opportunity to become a minister to the Tang Dynasty in the future, at least I'll see it."

Ah Xibao frowned, "Why do you want to be a minister?"

Gu Ba laughed and said, "Ah Xibao, we are just about to walk out of the mountains, and you are thinking of making an enemy of Datang?"

A Xibao said: "The young eagle has been accumulating energy in the nest, and when it flies out of the nest for the first time, it will fly up to the sky and look down on the earth."

Gu Ba took a look at Diesi and said: "We are still weak, 1 horses seem strong, but there is an army of [-] in front, and Sun Hai is a general of Beiliao... Father."

"En!" Diesi took a sip of tea.

Gu Ba said: "After breaking the city, the warriors grabbed a lot of good things. This winter, our life will not be difficult, and it is time to go back."

Diesi stroked his beard and meditated.

"Why do you want to go back?"

Axibao said dissatisfied.

"She Gu people should be in the mountains!" Gu Ba said coldly.

"But now we have a city!" A Xibao pointed outside the big tent, "No one is born to be a ruler. Back then, the Beiliao people were just a tribe, and they never expected to rule the world. But now? The Beiliao people Have ruled this world for hundreds of years. They can, Shegu, why can't they?"

Thinking about it.

Gu Ba said: "Father, we lost three battles last time!"

Dieth nodded.

Ah Xibao was anxious, "Father, the last time Guba led an army, he was timid and hesitant when facing the enemy. The enemy retreated without showing signs of defeat, but he pursued him ecstatically...and was ambushed in the end."

Gu Ba sneered and said, "That's Lin Jun, the famous general of Daliao!"

"That's because he didn't meet me!" Ah Xibao's eyes were full of confidence, "Father, I just got the news that northern Xinjiang has sent troops."

Dies raised his head, "Where is the attack?"

"I don't know, but Yang Xuan's troops will definitely gain something. If he captures the prefectures and counties again this time, father, Beiliao will be in big trouble. For this reason, they will definitely mobilize a large army to defend in the south. This is our chance. .

At this moment, send troops to defeat Sun Hai and occupy the city.Just a winter's rest will make the warriors stronger.After the beginning of spring, we attack again..."

"Yang Xuan...do you think he will win?" Gu Ba sneered, "I know that you have confidence in your elder brother, but Lin Jun is in the south of Daliao, so he will never succeed in sending troops this time. !"

"Father, Ning Xing must be thinking about the south at this moment. If they stabilize the situation in the south, the first thing they will do is to strangle us."

Dies pondered.

"Father, if you want to fight against the outside world, you must first secure the inside!" Ah Xibao said.

"These words are incisive, who said that?"

"Yang Xuan!"

Dietz looked at his two sons, "Why don't you try!"

"Father!" Gu Ba's face turned ashen.

Diesi went out, Gu Ba said coldly: "Are you happy now?"

"I'm for the Shegu Department." Ah Xibao patted his chest and said sincerely: "I don't have any selfishness in my heart."

"Ha ha!"

Afterwards, the Shegu tribe began to assemble.

"Let the warriors stop focusing on the belly of those Beiliao women, gather together, and let's go looting again!"

Dieth's call thrilled the warriors.

"Go and rob!"

Seeing Dies riding his horse and roaring in the camp, Ah Xibao couldn't help sighing.

Counselor Deji stood beside him, "Does the third prince think it's wrong?"

A Xibao said: "The one who only knows about looting, what is that?"

"Thief!" Deji looked at him with a smile, "I have always felt that only you can lead the Shegu tribe out of the forest."

"Father is moved, but he wants me to offend a few brothers... Deji, tell me, why do fathers and sons have to be emotional?"

Deji said: "Third Prince, you have to remember, this is just the beginning."

"What do you know?" Ah Xibao looked at him.

"The old man once talked with the old woman who had withdrawn from the palace. She said that in the palace, father and son are enemies, and husband and wife are rivals. At present, the Shegu tribe is just arguing."

"Enemy, opponent?"

The light in Axibao's eyes went out.

Ten thousand troops set off.

……

"The Shegu people are here."

After Sun Hai took over the army, he adopted the rule of doing nothing.

This is the emperor's confession, and he did it unwillingly and unwillingly.

"Lin Jun can defeat the Shegu people, but the old man can't? But His Majesty has ordered that the old man not act rashly, otherwise, the old man will send troops to the Shegu tribe and kill all the thieves who came out to rob!"

At the head of Zhenbei City, Sun Hai took a wine bag and took a sip.

The general beside him smiled and said, "Your Majesty wants to deal with Yang Xuan in the northern border with all his strength. Compared with the Shegu people, that side is the threat of Daliao."

In the eyes of Daliao, Shegu people are robbers and thieves, not a serious problem.

"It's autumn, the people of Shegu and squirrels like to stockpile food and keep an eye on it. If they dare to attack the city, it is logical for me to send troops."

Sun Hai burped and patted his chest, "This old man has blood in his chest, but it's a pity that there are no bandits to kill him!"

"The scouts are back."

A team of scouts returned with a small official.

"Xiangwen, Shegu people, dispatched."

Sun Hai looked at the little official, "How many people?"

"Ten thousand!"

There was fear in the little official's eyes, "They broke through the small town, and then bloodbathed, all the men were killed, and all the women were reduced to their wives... You know, they are a group of ferocious beasts!"

Sun Hai grinned, "This bird place is so cold that people don't want to sleep with women. The old man came here for meritorious service. Now that they take the initiative to attack, it's no wonder the old man. Send orders, assemble!"

The army began to gather.

Sun Hai wrote the memorial and ordered the messenger, "Tell Your Majesty, after this battle, I am willing to go to the south to lead the army and beat Yang Gou hard for Your Majesty!"

The [-] troops assembled and set off immediately.

The scouts kept reporting the news.

"The Shegu people plundered all the way, those exiles are out of luck."

The land in the extreme north has always been the place of exile in the Beiliao. After hundreds of years, the population has increased by a lot.And Beiliao was able to build cities and garrison troops in the extreme north in the future because of the descendants of these refugees.

If there is a population, there will be taxes, food, and people.

Otherwise, once the war starts, is it possible to recruit civilian husbands from Ningxing?
The high price can make the emperor vomit blood.

The two sides are constantly approaching.

The scouting war has begun.

The elite of Beiliao are located in two places, one is in the south, facing the Tang Dynasty, and the other is around Ningxing, defending the capital and the emperor.

And here, that is, the second line.

As soon as they fought, the Beiliao scouts suffered a big loss, and were beaten by the brave Shegu scouts.

"Add Rangers!"

Sun Hai didn't take it seriously, "It's just a bunch of savages. Last time Lin Jun used a trick to get them hooked. Is this old man worse than him in using soldiers?"

"Xiangwen has wiped out the rebels several times in the past, and when defending Kunzhou, he made the northern army dare not move. How can these savages be able to match?"

The generals under his command praised him endlessly.

The scout battle intensified.

When they could see each other, the scouts returned.

"[-] troops!" Gu Ba's face was ashen, "Father, we shouldn't take risks!"

Dies said: "At this time, retreating will only make the warriors despise our family, understand? We must at least fight once, and then evacuate."

Before coming here, Diesi was full of confidence inspired by Ah Xibao, but when he saw the neat and tidy Beiliao army, he was a little timid.

"Go to a team of warriors, challenge them, and then... evacuate!"

Dieth's decision won the approval of those nobles.

"We can be regarded as a demonstration. If Ning Xing is interested, he should stay away from us from now on!"

"However, don't provoke Ning Xing too much, otherwise, Beiliao can form an army of one million!"

"Each of us can drown us by spitting!"

"Khan, quickly retreat!"

In the past, the people of Shegu were resisting. When the Northern Liao army came to clean up and suppress, they would fight if there were few people, and flee into the mountains if there were too many.The Northern Liao army did not dare to enter the forest, so they had to stamp their feet outside and shout and curse.

Suddenly cheers came from the opposite side, and the flag waved.

The momentum was so great, Diesi took a look and saw that the faces of those nobles were pale.

"Axibao, this battle cannot be fought." Diesi shook his head.

"Father, if we retreat, the warriors will be afraid when they see the Beiliao people!" Ah Xibao said.

Gu Ba sneered, "Do you want to use the blood of warriors to water your stupidity?"

"This is morale!" Ah Xibao retorted.

Dies said, "Get out!"

"Third Prince, let's fight back and forth, there are only so few people, there are so many people in Beiliao, we can't afford it!"

"It doesn't matter if they lose. If we lose, Shegu will be gone."

"Go back, it's better to survive the winter, and come out to loot in the spring!"

The nobles seem to be very satisfied with the harvest of this plunder.

Ah Xibao said angrily: "Could it be that Shegu people can only be robbers?"

"Uh!"

The nobles looked at Diez angrily, "Khan..."

"A Xibao, shut up!" Dies shouted, "Prepare to withdraw!"

"Third Prince..." Deji looked at Ah Xibao and thought of the conversation between the two last night.

Axibao said that Yang Xuan in Northern Xinjiang is constantly advancing northward. If the Shegu people continue to hide in the mountains and become thieves, then when the Northern Liao Dynasty weakens, the most fertile part of the territory will belong to Northern Xinjiang.

If this opportunity is missed, the Shegu Department will only sink!
Ah Xibao has strong confidence in Yang Xuan, and feels that this elder brother will continue to attack Beiliao.And the last time they went to Ningxing, what they saw was singing and dancing.

——Beiliao is a giant with mud feet!
This is Axibao's evaluation.

He believes that Shegu's opportunity has come.

But Dieth and the nobles wanted to go back.

"I only need two thousand warriors!" Ah Xibao said.

"That's everyone's warrior!" Gu Ba said.

"Then, one thousand!" Ah Xibao said: "If I lose, I am willing to leave my head at the head of Zhenbei City."

Diese looked at him, "Ah Xibao, you are too impulsive..."

"I have 500 people myself, father, please give me 500 people." Ah Xibao said.

Gu Ba sighed: "Father, give it to him! Anyway, let him give up."

This means that Ah Xibao is going to die!

Once Ah Xibao is gone, who can compete with him for the position of Khan?

Thinking of this, Guba looked at the other two brothers with joy.

It seems that everyone is looking forward to Ah Xibao's death!
"Give it to him!" Dies nodded.

A Thousand Riders Assemble!

Ah Xibao drew his sword.

"We are the people of the gods, and the Beiliao people on the opposite side have long been abandoned by the gods. Warriors, follow me and use long swords to gain merit..."

"One thousand riders?" Sun Hai shook his head on the opposite side, "Is this a temptation? Give him a blow to the head. However, don't be too sharp, so as not to scare away our achievements!"

"Hahahaha!"

Five thousand cavalry rushed out of the formation.

"Kill!"

The two sides strangled together.

Soon, the thousand riders from the Shegu tribe were submerged in the middle.

A quarter of an hour later.

"Father, get out!" Gu Ba said.

"The enemy army is dispatched again." A nobleman shouted: "Ah Xi's protection is over!"

Beiliao dispatched [-] cavalry, and [-] cavalry surrounded Ah Xibao and his subordinates.

"Axibao..." Diesi's eyes were filled with sadness, and he raised his whip...

"Look, what is that?"

There was a sudden chaos in the middle of the Northern Liao Army, and then, a large banner was raised.

"It's the banner of Axibao!"

Ah Xibao was drenched in blood, and with his subordinates, it was like a sharp sword, making a cut.

The enemy army is actually retreating.

"Axibao has inherited Ben Khan's martial prowess!" Diesi said with a smile, "We are ready to welcome him back."

"Woooooo!"

Amidst the retreating horns, Ah Xibao shouted: "Warriors, Sun Hai is right ahead, dare to follow me to capture this old thief?"

"Axibao!"

Amidst the cheers, Ah Xibao led his subordinates and charged at the enemy's banner.

"Oh my God!"

In the headquarters of the ancient people, the nobles were dumbfounded.
