Chapter 587
The Khitan's invasion took a long time to prepare, and for this expedition, Yelu Chongyuan, the king of the Nanyuan who was in charge of the troops of the Khitan Sixth Academy and known as the Grand Marshal of the World's Horsemen, personally led the troops.

For six days and six nights in a row, Marshal Lian Yanfu led his [-] elite soldiers to fight bloody battles. The battle was far more difficult than imagined. There is a stance to drive Lian Yanfu's army out of Shanhaiguan.

That night.

In the tent of the Generalissimo of Soldiers and Horses.

Lian Yanfu stood in front of the table, frowning, looking at the military formation map in front of him. Deputy Marshal Peng Yong, left vanguard Wang Qin, right vanguard Ning Lang, etc. stood around.

Peng Yong said, "Marshal, this Yelu Zhongyuan is extremely cunning. He knows that he can't beat us head-on, so he adopts this kind of devious tactics. On the surface, every time he sends out troops, he will suffer damage, but if we continue to waste like this, it will not be good for us."

"Yes, Marshal, the Khitan people are used to this kind of weather, but our soldiers will not be able to bear it after a long time." Wang Qin also frowned.

"His mother Yelu Zhongyuan is very sinister. He only showed us a few months ago, and now he suddenly launched a war in this bad weather. When I saw him, I had to cut off his head with a sword to relieve my hatred!" Right pioneer Ning Lang said harshly.

"Marshal, I think we need to adjust our strategy, redeploy, and make a quick decision." Peng Yong said, looking at Lian Yanfu who had been frowning and not speaking.

"What you say is reasonable, so how about it, the three of you made a new formation map overnight for my commander to review." Lian Yanfu folded the formation map and said.

"Yes!"

The three of them took orders and were about to leave, Lian Yanfu ordered Wang Qin to call Lian Jue in.

After a while, Lian Jue opened the tent and walked in. He was wearing silver armor, and his hair was tied up at the back of his head. After several days of fighting, his originally picturesque face was now gray, and his eyelids There is also a scar on the lower part of the body. In order to facilitate the holding of the sword, cloth strips were wrapped around the hands.

"Marshal, are you looking for me?"

"Jue'er, come here." Lian Yanfu unfolded the military formation map in front of him again, and said, "Look carefully, can you see anything?"

"Yes." Lian Jue walked over, carefully looked at the formation map in front of him, looked at it for a while, and asked, "Fourth Uncle, you originally wanted to go straight to Huanglong?"

Lian Yanfu nodded and said, "Our biggest weakness is that our physical fitness is not as good as the Khitan people's ability to withstand the cold. If we delay, it will definitely be bad for us."

"But this Yelu Zhongyuan seems to know us very well, knows our weaknesses, and knows how we will fight." Lian Jue thought of the past few days, and charged every time, although he did not fail, he did not get any advantage.

Lian Yanfu said, "What you don't know is that Yelu Chongyuan's mother, Empress Renyi, is actually a Han. Yelu Chongyuan is deeply loved by Empress Renyi. Empress Renyi taught him Han culture since he was a child. It is said that Yelu Chongyuan He also likes Chinese culture very much, so he must know us very well.

Jue'er, this battle is probably the hardest battle my uncle has fought in the five years since he was stationed in Shanhaiguan. "

"Fourth Uncle..." Lian Jue's eyes showed worry.

Lian Yanfu patted Lian Jue on the shoulder and said, "This battle is also a crucial one for you, this is your first important battle in the army, you have to pay attention and study hard.

If you want to become a general admired by everyone, you must pay attention to every battle of yours, no matter how big or small, and this first time is the most important, understand? "

"Fourth Uncle, I understand, I will definitely remember what Fourth Uncle said." Lian Jue cupped his hands and said.

Lian Yanfu opened the tent and went out, Lian Jue followed silently, and saw the soldiers who had fought hard for six consecutive days lying on the spot to rest, their bodies were wrapped in bandages, and there were wounds and bloodstains on their bodies.

Lian Yanfu looked into the distance and said, "Speaking of which, I haven't seen your fourth aunt and Huitong for four years. I don't know what Huitong looks like now. Back then, I joined the army and then went to Shanhaiguan. Your fourth aunt didn't say a word of objection, she just told me to take care."

"Fourth uncle and fourth aunt are taken care of by their grandmother. They eat fast and chant Buddha every day. Huitong has also grown a lot taller. She is very good at painting..." Lian Jue talked about Sifang's situation.

"Forget it! After this battle is over, we will be able to return to Beijing!" Lian Yanfu turned around, patted Lianjue on the shoulder again, and said with a smile, "At that time, we will defeat Yelu Chongyuan, and we will return together." Jing, think about it, you are riding on a tall war horse, and the people on the street are cheering for you, how majestic it is!"

Lian Jue also smiled, this was the scene he was looking forward to the most, however, she smiled and the expression on her face gradually dimmed.

"Je'er, what's wrong?" Lian Yanfu asked after noticing the change in him.

"Fourth Uncle, can you promise Jue'er something?" Lian Jue looked at Lian Yanfu and asked.

"What's the matter, you said."

"After fourth uncle returns to Lian's house, can he stand by sister's side?" Lian Jue said.

Lian Yanfu was slightly stunned, and said, "Jue'er, why did you say such a thing suddenly? Siyue is the upright eldest daughter of our Lian family, and fourth uncle will naturally plot for her, and anyone else who wants to replace her will have to It can't."

"With fourth uncle's words, Jue'er is relieved." Lian Jue smiled reassuringly, and then said, "Fourth uncle, can I have another look at the marching formation map in your account?"

"Look." Lian Yanfu nodded.

Lian Jue plunged headlong into Lian Yanfu's tent, and began to study the formation diagram carefully.

On the second day, the two sides launched the seventh attack. This time, Lian Yanfu adjusted his tactics and fought Yelu Chongyuan from dawn to dusk. marshal.

"Pass!" Lian Yanfu gave an order.

That Huang Yan ran over in a hurry, knelt down on the ground from a distance, and said, "Marshal, it's not good, everyone retreats, our centurion, Ah Jue..."

Lian Yanfu was shocked, turned his head abruptly, picked up Huang Yan's collar, and asked, "What's wrong with Ah Jue?"

"Except for the two soldiers who died, all of us withdrew as planned, but, Ah Jue, he didn't come back."

"What did you say?" Lian Yanfu felt his blood froze.

"When Lord Wang's order to retreat sounded, we all went to retreat, but Ah Jue said that if you give him a little more time, he will be fine soon, let us retreat three miles and wait, and then we rushed into the thick smoke alone. , We waited for a long time, but we didn't see Ah Jue come back." Huang Yan said more, his voice trembling.

Lian Yanfu loosened Huang Yan's collar, a heavy look flashed across his face, and he said in a deep voice, "Peng Yong, you lead everyone to retreat, Wang Qin and Ning Lang, you two lead a small team of 20 people to go Looking for Ah Jue, we must find him, whether it is life or... death."
