Chapter 376 Fei Xian

The balloon that Li Ting and the others were riding on lost control, and the news that the three of them were riding the wind, was reported to Huanglonggang by the time it was dark.

Guo Ning fought for a day, with several wounds on his body, and he bled a lot. He was negotiating with others again, and after returning to the camp, he felt exhausted and collapsed, so he went to bed early.

In the end, he was sleeping in the dark, and was abruptly woken up, and learned that such a ridiculous thing happened in Xianping Mansion.When the generals gathered in the tent heard about it, they felt both worried and ridiculous, and all of them showed strange expressions.

Guo Ning's eyes were still a little blurry, his face was already as dark as a casserole, and the veins on his forehead were bursting out.Fu E thought for a long time before he said: "This matter must not be spread to the outside world, anyone who leaks it will be punished."

Everyone obeyed.

Guo Ning rubbed his face and called out, "Han Xuan."

"exist."

Guo Ning took out the golden knife from beside the pillow: "We go out alone, and we are surrounded by tigers. Even if we win, we can't relax a little bit. In Xianping Prefecture, there must be a heavy general in charge. You don't want to work hard, hold my golden knife, and return to Xian overnight. In the past few days, Pingfu City will lead the army and civilians."

"Yes." Han Xuan took the order, went out of the tent, set up a team of cavalry, held high the pine torches, and set off immediately.

"Send five more groups, no, ten groups to the scouts to the west and north. Pick people from my guards, everyone is on two horses, and go out immediately! Tell them that the threat of the Mongols is still there. In the deep and dangerous places in the mountains and forests, you can't be negligent, and I will reward everyone who finds the whereabouts of the Mongolian army and Khitan's defeated soldiers!"

Zhao Jue bowed to accept the order, and went out of the tent to arrange the manpower.

There was a sudden disturbance in the Dinghai camp, so of course it couldn't be hidden from Heshi Liehuanduan and the others.Not long after, the three families each sent envoys to inquire, lest there be any important changes.

Guo Ning had to meet them one by one and told them that it was Xianping Mansion who came to report that there was nothing wrong with them, but he still sent more scouts just in case.

When these messengers retreated, Guo Ning wanted to sleep again, but he was too tired and excited at the same time, and could no longer fall asleep.When the sound of hooves suddenly sounded outside, scouts were dispatched one after another, he tossed and turned on the couch, and couldn't sleep anymore.

After a long time, he finally couldn't bear it any longer, and angrily threw the pillow on the ground: "You fellow Li Erlang, you are really hateful!"

In fact, the search for the Mongolian army and the Khitan army has different routines.

The Mongolian army fought with Han Xuan and Li Ting before, although they suffered a big loss, they were not defeated, but saw that the situation was not right, and took the initiative to lead the army back.The Mongolian cavalry used to make great advances and retreats. As long as the horses were fat and strong, it was easy to run two or three hundred miles a day and night. They might still be fighting in Huanglonggang during the day, but they had already gone to Guangping Mansion at night.

As for Mu Huali's troops, it is said that they are in command of the five-throwing horse-hunting red army specially assigned by Genghis Khan. There are a lot of soldiers and horses.

Therefore, the focus of the search for the Mongolian army is not the Mongolian army, but the complete control of the surrounding area of ​​​​Xianping Prefecture, and it is enough to ensure that the enemy is driven far away.

The Khitan army and the Mongolian army are naturally different.

In the early years when Daliao was strong and prosperous, the reputation of the Khitan army was not very good. At that time, people called it "light but not neat, greedy but without relatives, won't give way to victory, and won't save each other from defeat". It is shameless to retreat at every turn.Generally speaking, it is not bad to be fierce and ferocious, but it is greatly lacking in tenacity.

After the fall of Daliao, among the Khitan people, except for one Dashi Linya who went far to the west, there were not a few heroes who turned the tide. Instead, there were a large number of Khitan nobles who surrendered to the Jin Kingdom.

At this moment, the troops assembled by Brother Yeluliu have also inherited the Khitan people's usual faults. If they have the upper hand in a fight, everyone is like a wolf or a tiger. , Tens of thousands of soldiers, horses, wolves and wolves rushed forward, without any appearance of an army.

The Dinghai Navy and the local warlords in Liaodong captured prisoners everywhere, and they had not finished capturing them until the sunset of Xishan. Two or three prisoner camps were set up, and there were no fewer than 8000 to [-] people in them.

However, no trace of Brother Yeluliu was found.

This person has always been the leader of the Khitan people on the ground in Liaodong, if he escapes, there will be a comeback in the future, and it will inevitably be endless troubles.Therefore, not only the Ding Navy, but Heshi Liehuanduan, Aluzhen and other ministries have sent fine subordinates to continuously search the mountains and seas from day to night.

This idea is correct.

Brother Yeluliu may not be very good at fighting, but he can take advantage of the situation and be quite decisive.Moreover, even if the Khitan army is surrounded by mountains, there are always some loyal subordinates around him.

When the army collapsed before, he saw that the general situation was gone, and he knew that the key was no longer resistance, but how to escape from the battlefield and preserve a useful body.

Immediately, he ordered to put away the flag, took off his luxurious robes, and pretended to be an ordinary rout, climbing down from the corner of the slope.

Just as he and some of his trusted guards came down the mountain, Zhang Qian and Dong Jin had already been slaughtered indiscriminately on the mountain, and the situation deteriorated instantly.

Without delay, he walked towards the depths of the barren mountains and ridges, and encountered the same fleeing subordinates three times in the middle of nowhere.

Because these subordinates were able to gather soldiers and horses, maintain a little organizational structure, and rushed to rescue them, Brother Yeluliu greatly praised their loyalty, made many promises, and continued to flee in one place.But on the way, they were chased by Han Xuan's iron cavalry again. These men died in battle one after another, and all the men scattered.

In the end, there were only thirty people left with him, only two war horses, and no food or water.

Brother Yeluliu fled until night, and finally escaped Ding Haijun's pursuit, and rested for a while on a small hill covered with wild forest, as for the snakes, insects and beasts in the forest, he had completely ignored it.

Yeluliuge took off his armor and padded the ground, and leaned against a big tree to doze off. After a long time of half-dream and half-awake, he suddenly heard low voices from people around him.

He immediately opened his eyes and shouted in a steady voice: "What's going on?"

"King Liao, the cavalry sent out by the enemy army to search for them is getting denser. Just a moment ago, two teams passed down the mountain one after another. Everyone is worried that if the enemy goes up the mountain to search, we will suffer immediately. Many people say that it is better to go further into the mountains go."

"Alright..."

In fact, Brother Yeluliu couldn't walk at all, and going to the mountains late at night was extremely dangerous in itself.But he also knew that at this time, everyone was determined to flee, and he, the king of Liao, could not go against everyone's wishes.

So he had to force himself to get up, because his whole body was sore from the cold air on the ground, his joints creaked, and his eyes turned black again and again.With a wave of his hand, he took the lead to go deep into the forest far away from the road, stepping on dead branches accumulated over thousands of years under his feet, the black tree shadows in front of him seemed to be shaking, like ghosts.

The group of people was afraid of attracting the attention of the pursuers, and they did not dare to light the pine torches. They walked in the dark for an unknown how long. Brother Yeluliu suddenly found that there were no subordinates in front of him or behind him.

He stood on his heels, but couldn't stand his body steady. He supported the tree beside him and wanted to shout, but he felt hoarse and painful, like a knife cutting.At this time, his power was gone, and the aging and weakness left by years of fighting and fighting could not be concealed at this time.

At this moment, he suddenly heard a voice in the air.

The voice floated in high places, from far to near.He raised his head, trying to look through the densely-grown branches, but he couldn't see anything, he could only vaguely distinguish it, as if there was a little light.

And the voice became clearer and clearer, it was Han'er's voice, someone said repeatedly in the air: "It's over, it's over, it's over, it's over."

The voice repeated countless times, and then slowly faded away.

When he was about to lose his hearing, it seemed that someone shouted again in the air: "Shut up!"

Brother Yeluliu was stunned.

He didn't know where the sound came from. Could it be that the legendary fairy really existed?If this is the words of the immortal, what does the immortal want to express?

Could it be that the great cause of Khitan people's revival is really over?
In an instant, thousands of thoughts flooded into my mind, and countless scenes passed by.

He thought of himself working hard to climb up in Dajin's army; he thought of agitating those Khitan nobles time and time again;In the end, he thought of the Mongolian army's ruthless use of the Khitans, and how much vitality the few Khitans had lost in this defeat.

That's it, that's it.

Brother Yeluliu suddenly lost all his strength, he slowly sat down on the ground, and then chose a more comfortable angle to lie down.He heard the suppressed shouts of his subordinates, as if they were looking for him, but he didn't bother to agree.

It's over, why bother.

Yeluliu closed his eyes.

At this time, a strong wind suddenly blows, rolling the branches of the forest, making a sound like the sound of waves.This noise covered up more voices from above, so he didn't hear the voice that was repeated before. He circled around and flew straight to the west.

That was the hot air balloon where the three of Li Ting were.

They were blown by the wind, going east for a while, then west for a while.The wicker baskets were not sheltered from the wind, and after two hours, the three of them had already been blown like wind chickens hanging under the eaves, and they didn't even have the strength to tremble.

Hodor tried to extinguish the fire several times, and let the balloon fall, but he was so unlucky that he couldn't find an open flat land suitable for landing.

At this moment, the coal and kerosene are really running out, and the balloon can't last long.But wherever they went, the three of them bowed their heads to look around, and there were still continuous forests and hills. Once they fell, if they hit the slopes, the three of them might break their bones!
A Duo was a little scared, so he kept saying, "It's over, it's over, it's over."

These words caught Li Ting's ears, and made Li Ting very irritable. He cursed after a while, "Shut up!"
