Chapter 38: Brother Ma is not fooled

On the river, rows of rebel soldiers were crossing the bridge quickly.

There are still thirty miles away from Longhua City. Dong Zhongsun believes that there is no need to hide his traces and cross the river in a swagger. If there are many Liao troops in the city, they will take advantage of the rebel army to cross the river to launch an attack and kill. If the troops are insufficient, they will definitely not dare to leave the city. They will only ask for help from Linhuang Mansion (the capital of Shangjing Road) and Yelu Mage of the mountain city as quickly as possible.

Iron Eagle took the lead in crossing the river with five hundred cavalry, and lined up on the other side, and was careful.

Soon the scouts returned the petty horse. The four gates of Longhua City were closed and the defenders were on high alert. There was no sign of Liao army leaving the city to fight. It seemed that the number of defenders in the city was limited.

This is good news. Tieying's tight heart relaxed a little. What he was most worried about was that the Khitan Iron Cavalry rushed out of the city. Don't have too many, just one thousand cavalry was enough, which was enough to defeat this "magnificent" rebel army. If such a thing really happened, after he escaped, he must beat Li Hu into a pig's head.

This is all caused by Li Hu. It would be fine if you use the main force to attack the aid, but you must always be like a besieged city. Luo Qinghan is quite arbitrary and plans to give an eight thousand main force, but Li Hu opened his mouth and turned into three thousand, and there were only five hundred iron cavalry.

Li Hu also made a frank statement, besieging the city, as the name suggests, is to surround the city. What do you want many people to do? Go to 50,000 today, okay, camp. Slide out in the evening and come back in the morning, and another 50,000. This becomes 100,000 people. After four or five days, a army of 200,000 to 300,000 troops will be besieged by the city. The enemy is inside the city, you are outside the city, and there is a stone wall. What does he know? This is called being deceiving. In the end, he has a nice saying.

To put it bluntly, this is a fraud, a scam by any means. This kid is hard to learn, but he is conspiracy and tricks are emerging one after another. You can cheat, but you can't cheat too much. Five thousand turns into one hundred thousand, and one hundred thousand turns into two hundred thousand... If Liao Gou knows this, thousands of cavalry will come out of the city, and 50,000 people will be driven into the river and drowned, and then you will lose all your money.

Tieying was complaining indignantly that Dong Zhongsun came, "Zhi Mom, I've told that boy that he's right. Liao Gou was so scared that he didn't dare to come out. Alas, let me ask you, when you were on the mountain, who else would teach him something besides you? No matter how I look at it, I think this boy is not a human?"

"What is it not a human?" Tie Ying smiled, "Is he a god?"

"The gods are not as shameless as him, right? They are playing dice, and they are playing tricks, they are not promising, and they are the general generals? The faces of the rebels were thrown away by him." Dong Zhongsun was annoyed when he thought of this. He knew that he was playing tricks, but he just couldn't catch the handle and lost money every day. He was so angry. "When he went out, the most worried thing was that the scam was exposed by Liaogou. Not to mention attacking aid, he couldn't even hit a single hair. Hey... It's really strange that Liaogou in the city could not come out. This was in the past. In order to steal the head, they ran faster than rabbits, for fear of falling a step."

"We are in the mountains, and the five rebels combined together are indeed amazing." Tieying stroked his beard and smiled, "The general general said it well. This time he went down the mountain to fight the Golden Dog, there was no other benefit, that is, the rebels were defeated. Liao Gou had always been defeated when he met the Golden Dog, but we surrounded the Golden Dog for more than two months, which made them frightened. This incident reached Liao Gou's ears, so he was naturally afraid. At this moment, he suddenly saw the overwhelming rebels appearing outside the city. Of course, he was so heartbroken that he didn't dare to go out."

Dong Zhongsun bounced on his bald head and said happily: "Tonight, you can work hard first, and bring another 50,000 troops across the river tomorrow morning. How about it?"

Iron Eagle nodded and urged the horse to lightly say, "Let's go, let's go to the city for a few rounds."

"Okay." Dong Zhongsun shouted to the cavalry while riding his horse: "Tie branches behind the horse's butts, speeding back and forth, rolling up smoke and dust, hurry, hurry..."

"Is this a solution possible?" Tieying asked in confusion.

"That boy said that Zhang Fei used this method to scare Cao Cao at Changbanpo." Dong Zhongsun said confidently, "I don't believe that there are Liao dogs in Longhua City that are better than Cao Cao. Let's learn from Zhang Fei, and scare those barbarians raised by bitches to death."

Yelu Mage from the mountain city received a letter of help from Longhuazhou.

He didn't believe that Yizhou was 100 miles southeast of the mountain city. The rebels fought there for more than two months and were recently negotiating with the Jurchens. How could it appear in Longhuazhou? Did a new rebel emerge? However, he was still very careful. While replying to Longhuazhou, he asked them to stick to the waiting for assistance, and sending many scouts to inquire about the rebel camp under Yizhou.

The next day, Longhuazhou sent another letter. It was indeed a rebel from the mountains, and the subsequent army was arriving one after another. Today, there were tens of thousands of people. The defenders in the city clearly saw the banners of the Tiger Lieutenant Army, the Black Mountain Army, the Shenlong Army, the Thunder Army and the King of Hell Army, and asked Yelu Ma Ge to rush for help quickly.

Yelu Ma Ge began to suspect that there was something wrong with it, and that things were not as simple as it seemed.

Since the rebels negotiated with the Jurchens, they stopped attacking, and few people came out. The thieves were all staying in the camp, very quiet. One day or two can be explained as rest, but three or four days is abnormal. Think about it carefully, these cunning thieves may indeed use the night as cover to secretly fight Longhuazhou, but the question is, where did they come from such a clever plan? They fought many battles with these thieves, and they fought repeatedly, and they knew how much they had. Also, where did they get the courage? Last time An Shenger besieged Longhuazhou and was killed by himself. The thieves were so scared that they flee into the mountains. How dare they fight Longhuazhou again? Besides, where did they get the food and weapons? The rebels besieged Yizhou for more than two months, and the consumption can be imagined. What did they use to fight Longhuazhou without supplementary?

There is only one reasonable explanation for all these questions, that is, they received help from the Jurchens. When the situation became increasingly critical, the Jurchens were likely to spend money to bribe the rebels, collude with the rebels, and conspire to capture Shangjing Road. In order to fill their stomachs, these shameless rebels dared to do anything. Not to mention being brothers with Jingou, they could even betray their ancestors.

If the facts are the same as you guessed, it will be a little troublesome.

In recent years, the Liao army has repeatedly failed during the battle with the Jurchens, and its troops have decreased sharply. The troops on Shangjing Road were transferred to Nanjing and Zhongjing to guard the capital of the capital. This place gradually became an empty shell. Fortunately, this matter is highly confidential to the Liao Kingdom and the enemy does not know it, otherwise Shangjing Road would have become the target of Jindo.

Almost all the main troops of Shangjing Road are here now, but their main task is not to suppress the rebels, but to defend Jin soldiers in the mountain city and cannot return to Longhuazhou without authorization. At present, the front line of Yizhou has attracted tens of thousands of Jin troops due to the attacks of the rebels. If the rebels and the Jurchens colluded, one suddenly attacked Longhuazhou and lured me back to the rescue, and the other took the opportunity to attack and entered Shangjing, it would not be a problem for me alone, but the entire Liao Kingdom would be in trouble.

Yelu Ma Ge urgently wrote to the Beijing Liushou Office and told him in detail about his speculation.

The most urgent thing at present is not to kill the rebels, but to defend against the Jin soldiers to attack Shangjing Road. He is responsible for defending the border. When the Jin army is in a hurry, he cannot randomly draw troops back to Longhuazhou when the Jin army is in a hurry. He asks the capital to send troops to support him. Although there are only more than 10,000 troops left in Linhuang, the capital can not be called, but local troops can be mobilized in nearby prefectures and counties for rescue. Longhua City is tall and strong, with sufficient food and supplies, and the rebels are just a group of mobs. In the short term, they are unable to conquer the city. Compared with that, the border military situation is more urgent.

At this time, the scouts sent out successively returned, saying that the rebel camp was crowded and very lively, but they were all ordinary people, and the camps stationed in the army were quiet. They tried every means to catch a few people and asked carefully before they found out that the camps of the army were blocked a few days ago and no one was allowed to enter and exit.

Yelu Mage can be sure that the rebels and the Jurchens had collusion. It is very simple. If the two did not collude, the rebels would dare to throw more than 100,000 people under the city and run more than 300 miles away to attack Longhuazhou? Are they not afraid that the Jurchens will attack the camp and plunder more than 100,000 Han people and take them away?

Yelu Mage once again sued the Shangjing Left-behind Office. I have sufficient evidence to prove that the rebels and the Jurchens colluded with each other. If they return to the rescue rashly, they would be attacked by the Jin army. Therefore, he asked the capital to send reinforcements to Longhuazhou and report to the emperor to suspend peace talks with the Jin Kingdom. The Jurchens' peace talks are false, and the real purpose is to paralyze us so that we can join forces with the rebels and attack Shangjing Road. Yelu Mage asked the emperor to issue an order and quickly dispatch troops from the direction of Zhongjing to help.
