Chapter 322 Sealing White Wolf Mountain
By the riverside of Bailangshui in western Liaoning, hundreds of Khitan people gathered in a circle.

The river was flowing, and the Khitan man squatted by the river, took off his sheepskin robes, splashed water on his face and body in large quantities, and after drinking enough water.They were sitting powerlessly by the river, looking at the sky blankly, as if they would collapse if they lay down.

The war horse beside him lost weight from hunger, foamed, saw the green grass on the ground, and gnawed a few mouthfuls weakly.

Then they heard the sound of horseshoes coming from the riverside. The Khitan man showed despair, confusion and anger on his face, but he had no choice but to brace himself and get on the horse again.

Many people were so tired that they couldn't even step on the stirrups. After trying several times, they finally fell off their horses and simply collapsed on the ground, unwilling to go anywhere.

Soon after, the sound of horseshoes came from behind, and more than a dozen cavalrymen appeared by the river where the Khitans were resting just now, and then effortlessly grabbed more than 20 Khitans who were too lazy to move around.

Of the dozen or so cavalry, half were Shidexi cavalry, and the rest were from Baijiao, Shiwei and other tribes. Each of them counted three horses and held longbows, but everyone was exhausted.

The leader was a rough man who was born in the Dexi tribe, and said to the two people: "You hand them over to Ke Mulun, and we will continue to chase them. Even if we chase them to Bailang Mountain today, we will kill all these Khitans." Catch it."

One person said: "Leader, let's forget it. We have been chasing for two days, and the opponent has hundreds of people and hundreds of horses. If we know that we are the ones who are chasing, we will not tear us apart even if we turn around." .”

The team leader said: "What are you afraid of? You don't know that the more you pay, the more rewards the banner owner will give. Commanding the army, there is still a reward from Khan. We have been poor all our lives on the Mulan Grassland. Can we It’s up to today to save a few hundred cattle and sheep.”

Hearing what the team leader said, the tired Xi Ren cavalrymen had regained their spirits and nodded at once.

"But Khitan people?" One person still had concerns.

"What are you afraid of when you talk about them?" The team leader casually pointed at the Khitan prisoners who seemed to have lost their souls.

Seeing the appearance of the Khitan people, all the soldiers nodded together.

At this time, the sound of horseshoes also sounded, and the team leader looked towards the other side of the river, only to see smoke and dust in the sky, a group of thousands of Khitan cavalry were running past the river bank.The generals of the Xi tribe couldn't help being startled when they saw this, if they hadn't been separated by a river, they would have fled when they encountered this Khitan cavalry.

But the thousands of Khitan cavalry seemed to have not seen them, and galloped past the river in panic.Not long after, more than 30 cavalry with horse crossbows appeared, and the cavalry of the Han army appeared. It turned out that they were trying their best to pursue the thousands of Khitan cavalry.

"Look, look, look, the Han army with more than 30 riders dared to chase 1000 Khitan horses, what about us?" The team leader stretched out his hand and pointed at the river, and all the subordinates showed shame.

"If you slow down, the meat will be eaten by others, and we won't even have soup left, so don't hurry."

After listening to the team leader's words, all the cavalrymen woke up like a dream, quickly changed the saddle to another horse, put the reins on again, and then chased forward with whipped whips, while the two Xi clan who escorted the captives back The cavalry also showed a look of pity. Everyone knew that the following good things were gone.

White Wolf Mountain.

Li Chongjiu's banner appeared at the foot of the mountain.

At this moment, Li Hu has led the main cavalry to meet Li Chongjiu. At the foot of Bailang Mountain, [-] Xi clan cavalry appeared here.

Although in the end only Ke Mulun's [-] cavalry participated in the battle, the Khitan people were scared out of their wits. Li Chongjiu chased hundreds of miles from the territory of western Liaoning to the door of the Khitan people's house. At the foot of White Wolf Mountain, the boundary between Khitan and Liaoxi County place.

Su Suzai and Li Chongjiu are stationed on the mountain together.

Holding a whip in his hand, Su Su pointed to Li Chongjiu and said: "Back then, Cao Mengde led an army to attack Wuhuan, defeated the enemy in Liaoxi, captured more than 20 enemies, and then climbed to Bailang Mountain. Today Xiaojiu, you Defeating the three tribes of the Khitan Xi clan with nearly [-] horses, chasing for hundreds of miles, and entering Khitan, is also a shock to the world, comparable to Cao Mengde back then!"

Li Chongjiu's eyes froze when he heard this, and Su Su's tone was full of pride for Li Chongjiu as an elder.

On the other hand, Li Hu looked at Li Chongjiu, and he was also relieved. His son is really extraordinary. Back then, the fortune teller said that the second and ninth phases are precious and precious, and it seems to be true.In fact, no matter what a fortune teller said, no father would expect his son to be successful, and today Li Chongjiu has far exceeded his expectations.

Thinking of this, Li Hu couldn't help but secretly touched his tears, expressing his relief.

Li Chongjiu nodded. After climbing White Wolf Mountain, nearly [-] troops participated in the Khitan Xi clan's decisive battle. From the top of the mountain, the banners were like a sea, and the people and horses could not be seen at a glance.

Seeing Li Chongjiu's big banner at the foot of the mountain, the soldiers also burst into a roar like a tsunami. They defeated the 20 coalition army of the Khitan Xi clan in World War I, not to mention the outside of the Great Wall, and the whole world was shocked.Since then, in the east of the grassland, Li Chongjiu's Shide Khanate will keep pace with the Turks.

Li Chongjiu said immediately: "The 20 troops of the Khitan Xi tribe were defeated in the bloody battle. All the soldiers contributed a lot. I will build an altar here to worship the heavens, pray to the heavens to bless my Huaxia, and comfort the soldiers who died in this battle to pay homage to the heroic spirits."

"Good!" Li Hu slapped his thigh, seeing that his son was not at all complacent after his success, and he was even more gratified when he remembered to pay homage to the fallen soldiers.

Su Su also showed a moved expression.

Li Chongjiu then said to the generals: "Yesterday, when Luo Yi attacked the Chinese army, he almost captured the commander-in-chief's flag and reversed the war. If the generals hadn't sacrificed their lives in the end to stop the Youzhou iron cavalry's assault, how could we be here today. "

"As the saying goes, if one general succeeds, all bones will die. I hope that everyone will always be vigilant against me. No matter what achievements I, Li Chongjiu will have in the future, or where I am, don't forget that it is the soldiers who fought to the death."

"No!" Yu Chigong, Wang Mahan and other generals clasped their fists together.
At present, Li Chongjiu is in Bailang Mountain, setting up an altar with all the generals to worship the sky.

The casting of the altar was supervised by Sima Wen Yanbo of Shanggu County, Yang Linfu, governor of Liaoxi County, and Liu Yi, governor of Anle County, who followed the army.

After Wen Yanbo learned of this, he was very solemn and built a circular mound south of White Wolf Mountain in accordance with the ancient ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven.The Circular Mound is in the shape of a circle, which is obtained from the round sky, and then excavated to build it, with three floors up and down.

After the Circular Mound was built, cattle and sheep were sacrificed, and sacrificed to the sky with the ritual of a prison.Li Chongjiu and the generals performed three worships and nine kowtows on the Circular Mound.

After that, Li Chongjiu inspected the three armies at the foot of Bailang Mountain.

Li Chongjiu, Su Su, Li Hu and other generals rode on horseback, and the army stood closely in an array.Han Jun Jun Bing, as well as Fanqi Liaoxi Mohe, Ding Lingbu, Xi Clan, Silla, Goguryeo and other tribes.It is a scene of a large army like a sea, and people and horses jumping for joy.

Wherever Li Chongjiu passed by, all the soldiers raised their guns and shouted. When they passed by the soldiers of the Han army, all the soldiers shouted the voice of Wansheng.And the Fanqi of the Xi clan shouted, the voice of Khan Longevity.As for Ding Ling, Mohe and others, they even shouted the words of long live.

And Li Chongjiu saw that the elites of all ethnic groups were all at their own disposal, so he couldn't help but be ambitious.

The big man is willing to win [-] people and run rampant among the Xiongnu.Li Chongjiu couldn't help but think of this saying, it is the dream of the generals of the Han people to confine the wolf to the Xuxu. I think I also have this idea when I was young when I was studying, and I can't help but be fascinated by the demeanor of the champion.

Now I have tens of thousands of fine cavalry under my command, which is not only enough to deter the grasslands, but even if I use troops to the south in the future, I can run rampant in the world and compete with the heroes of the world for a while.
After offering sacrifices to heaven, Wen Yanbo ordered people to carve stones on White Wolf Mountain.

In the summer and May of the 14th year of Wei Daye's first letter, Li Chongjiu, the governor of Youzhou in the Sui Dynasty, Yin Liang Shengming, ascended the royal family of Yi, and managed the soldiers in Shuofang.The school of Yingyang, the scholar of Chihu, the Sixth Division of Yuangai, Ji Shidexi, Donghu Mohe, the group of Dingling in the Central Plains, a group of [-] Xiaoqi, Suiling Liaoshui, passing through Liucheng, and ending Liaoxi, beheading the enemy chieftains to provoke drums, blood The corpses are dyed one by one.Turn back and forth, test and pass on the map, and look at its mountains and rivers.In the region of the Xi family, hundreds of thousands of Khitan were burned, and the descendants of Angu were sent down to restore the realm and revitalize the voice of the Sui Dynasty.It is said that the one who works for a long time and enjoys peace for a while, and the one who spends a while and lives in peace, is to seal the mountain and publish the stone to show the virtue of Shengde.

After the white wolf reined in the stone, Li Chongjiu led an army in triumph.
In Ji County, Zhuo County, Lu Ziqian was receiving a letter from his elder brother Lu Chisong.

As stated in the letter, Li Yuan said that if he wins Zhuo County in the future, he will thank the Lu family generously.Lu Ziqian was moved by Li Yuan's promise. Everyone knew that Li Yuan had captured Guanzhong at this time, and he was one step ahead of Li Mi, leading the world and holding a great opportunity to win the Central Plains.At this time, Li Yuan threw an olive branch to the Lu family, which was undoubtedly a great opportunity for the Lu family to seek refuge.

After Lu Ziqian saw the letter, he couldn't help sighing. If he had received this letter from his elder brother a few days ago, he would have persuaded the other elders in the clan to support the Li family in Longxi to ascend the throne without hesitation.But today, when he received a letter from Liaoxi, he couldn't help but hesitate.

Lu Ziqian pondered for a while, then sat on the Hu chair and wrote a letter to reply to his brother.

Today all the heroes are coming together, the situation is not yet clear, Pu Shangong attacked the Eastern Capital, and he could go down at any time, Dou Jiande gathered 30 to 20 people, seven or eight out of the ten in Hebei, besides, there are Du Fuwei, Xiao Xian, Li Zitong in the south, Lin Shihong... What's more, Lord Shanggu of Zhuo County defeated the Khitan Xi clan in western Liaoning today, with [-] riders, and sealed Bailang Mountain.

This person has [-] elite riders from outside the Great Wall, and he overwhelms the barbarians. Wei Qing and Huo Qubing were no different. If this person turned to Pu Shangong, Pu Shangong would win the world, and to Tang Wang, Tang Wang would win the world. too much.My Lu family in Zhuojun County has been in Youzhou for a hundred years, this matter has a lot to do with it, if you make a hasty decision, it may be unlucky, please think twice.

Lu Ziqian finished writing the last word, dried the ink after putting down the pen, read it again, and then said: "Come here, send this letter to Xijing immediately, and hand it to your brother."
