    Chapter 386: Falling into the trap

    Master Lang sent troops and ordered He Chongbao to lead 100,000 elite troops and march toward Jizhou with great momentum.  Yunshan also led 100,000 troops out of Youzhou and stationed near Qingshi Valley, waiting for He Chongbao to lure the enemy to the bait.

    During these days, Ximen Qing did not make any big moves. Instead, he guarded Jizhou and coordinated the affairs of the three states to make the defense of the three states more complete. When facing a war, they can support each other and form an integrated strategy.  system.

    The news of He Chongbao¡¯s army¡¯s attack quickly reached Ximen Qing¡¯s ears. After hearing this, Ximen Qing immediately laughed.

    I won¡¯t go to you, but you will come looking for trouble!

    Afterwards, Ximen Qing summoned the generals to discuss and formulate a strategy to resist the enemy.

    In the conference hall, after everyone listened to Yue Fei's situation report, they began to discuss how to meet the enemy.

    As the commander, Ximen Qing was the first to speak: "This time the Liao army launched a large-scale attack with 100,000 troops. It must be because they knew the power of our artillery in attacking the city, so they did not dare to defend Youzhou and planned to take the initiative! It's just that this  One hundred thousand troops, it¡¯s a bit weird to come!¡±

    "What's so weird?" Wu Song asked with a frown. The other generals also looked at Ximen Qing.

    Ximen Qing said: "Look, the people of Liao know that we have 100,000 men and horses and our military strength is strong, so why did they only send 100,000 horses? If there are few people, there must be a conspiracy. If we come, we will not get much."  There are fewer people, and there are even more conspiracies. Of course, this is just my suspicion. Maybe there are not many people in Youzhou City, so we can only send a hundred thousand troops! But we must be prepared for danger. Military advisor, what do you think?"

    Wu Yong nodded and said: "The number of people and horses is indeed a little small. It may be because Youzhou has no soldiers, or it may be some conspiracy, but we will have to wait until the enemy comes and we fight with him before we can see it.  But in this war, we must win, and we must win a big victory, so that we can capture Youzhou in one go! As long as Youzhou is captured, the Liao Kingdom will be in danger. By then, if we occupy the four states, we will have nothing to fear!  "

    Ximen Qing said: "The scholar is right. Since we can't see clearly the enemy's status now, we will take the initiative to attack and find this congratulatory treasure. The generals listen to the order, rectify the troops and horses, and set off tomorrow five!"

    "Yes!" all the generals shouted in unison.

    On the second day, Ximen Qing took command of the central army, and then commanded 100,000 troops and marched in the direction where He Chongbao came.  After traveling for two days, the army met in an open area of ????plains called Aries Plains.

    Subsequently, the armies of both sides set up camp.  In the early morning of the next day, both sides sent troops and slowly approached.  Ximen Qing stood in front of the formation and looked out, only to see a large flag coming out from behind the hillside.  Then they saw the Liao army rushing over in mighty force.  The Liao army was divided into four groups and formed a formation before reaching the hillside.

    Ximen Qing, Wu Yong and the other generals looked over and saw that the Liao army was like millions of men and horses emerging from black clouds, surrounded by a Liao general. He was a tall and tall man sitting on a horse with a three-pointed two-edged sword across his hand.  Immediately in front of the formation.

    This person is none other than He Chongbao.

    "I saw him wearing a frosty iron helmet, sun-linked armor, green cloud-root boots, and a tortoise-back suanni belt around his waist.  Wearing a splendid crimson robe, holding an iron mace.  Holding a three-pointed, two-edged eight-ring sword, he sat down on a horse with four hooves and two wings.

    He Chongbao leapt on his horse and drew his sword, and came out of the formation. He shouted to Ximen Qing in front of the formation: "Ximen son, my husband respects you as a hero. Corporal Li Xian begs you to be the general marshal of the Liao Kingdom. I never thought that you are really a mountain man."  You unruly people and cowardless bandits actually deceived my lord and took away my hegemonic state! Now you have taken over our Tan and Ji states in succession. It is really abominable! Today, under the orders of Master Lang, I sent a hundred thousand troops to capture you!  If you don¡¯t want to die, dismount immediately and beg for mercy, and I can still spare your life!¡±

    Ximen Qing snorted coldly, then clapped his horse and stepped forward, shouting: "When two armies fight, they always rely on tactics to win. Haven't you heard that soldiers never tire of deceit? I think you are ignorant and will not argue with you. If you  If you want to fight, then my army will accompany you! Which general can help me capture this guy!"

    Guan Sheng rode out and shouted: "Commander, the general is willing to go out and capture this guy!"

    As Ximen Qing nodded, Guan Sheng clapped his horse and stepped forward.  And He Chongbao also advanced with his sword.  Soon the two were fighting together.

    I saw that both of them were living fierce generals. When you came and I went back, the battle was endless.  The Qinglong Yanyue Sword chopped up the billowing sand and dust.  The three-pointed, two-edged sword raised the roar of a fierce horse.  One is like a blue dragon flying, the other is like a white tiger jumping, the tiger roars and the dragon roars, how wonderful it is.

    The two armies waved their flags and shouted, making the fight between the two generals even more fierce.

    In the end, He Chongbao was exhausted and was almost killed by Guan Sheng.  He hurriedly pulled his horse back and fled back to the camp.

    At this time, Ximen Qing sounded his frightening drum, and then the army rushed to kill him.

    Two partiesThe horses fought together, the sky was dark and the earth was dark, corpses were everywhere, and blood flowed like rivers.  Finally, the Liao army retreated and rushed towards Youzhou.

    Ximen Qing led an army to pursue him.

    In this way, the two parties fought and stopped. The Liangshan army pursued and killed him for a whole day and night. He Chongbao's army was wiped out by 50,000 people.  More than 20,000 Liangshan troops died.

    After several days of chasing and fighting, both parties were exhausted, and each set up camp, preparing to fight again tomorrow.

    In the Chinese military camp, Ximen Qing, Wu Yong and other leaders were talking.

    Guan Sheng laughed loudly and said: "After these several chases, Liao Kingdom is running faster than a rabbit. Haha, at this speed, we will kill them all before they reach Youzhou! We will be just in time  Send troops to Youzhou, and then take Youzhou down!"

    Lin Chong was also extremely excited and said: "You're right. After we capture Youzhou, we can send troops to Yanjing. I'll see how the Liao army will deal with it then!"

    Everyone nodded and rubbed their hands together to show their excitement.

    At this time, Wu Yong said: "It's true that the enemy army is defeated by our Liangshan army, and it's true that the ones being chased are beaten, but I always feel that something is wrong, but I can't explain it clearly!"

    Ximen Qing also nodded and said: "I feel the same way. I always feel that something is wrong, but when I think about it carefully, I feel that everything is normal."

    Seeing Ximen Qing and Wu Yong chattering, Guan Sheng said, "Commander, military advisor, don't feel that something is wrong! I feel that everything is right. Let's destroy He Chongbao tomorrow!"

    At this time, Yue Fei hurried into the camp and said: "Commander, there is a letter from Bazhou, saying that He Chongbao's younger brother He Chongyang sent 80,000 troops to attack Bazhou unexpectedly. He wanted to take Bazhou without telling us, but he was defeated by Zhu Dian and Lei Heng.  After the leader is defeated, it is said that he is retreating towards Youzhou, and from the looks of it, he should be joining up with He Chongbao!"

    "This is happening! The Liao army is really cunning!" Ximen Qing said with a smile.

    At this time, Wu Song said: "Commander, don't you think it's weird? It seems that the weird thing is to blame! He Chongbao came to attack Jizhou. In fact, He Chongbao came to attack Jizhou to attract our attention, entangle Jizhou's troops, and give He Chongbao  Chongyang created the opportunity to capture Bazhou. But he didn¡¯t expect that we still had 100,000 people left in Bazhou. Haha, now they have stolen the chicken but lost the rice. What a retribution! Commander, since He Chongbao and He Chongyang have reunited, then  We will take advantage of the victory to pursue and destroy them all! We cannot let them escape back to Youzhou!"

    "That's right, Commander!" Everyone shouted.

    Ximen Qing looked at Wu Yong and said, "What does the military advisor think?"

    After all, Wu Yong was not a perfect man. He was also confused by He Chongyang's attack on Bazhou, so he nodded and said: "We can't let the two brothers He Chongbao escape! But for the sake of safety, I think we should stay  Xu Ning¡¯s Hook and Sickle Spear Battalion will provide back-up support! All other troops will attack tomorrow and must wipe out He Chongbao and He Chongyang!¡±

    Ximen Qing nodded and said: "Okay, let's do it like this!"

    The next day, Ximen Qing left Xu Ning's hook and sickle gun camp behind, and then led the army to attack.

    The two armies of He Chongbao and He Chongyang merged together, and the number of troops increased a lot, making it easier for the Liangshan soldiers to start fighting.

    In the end, the Liao army was defeated and fled under the leadership of He Chongbao and He Chongyang.  Ximen Qing led his troops to pursue them quickly.

    In this way, they chased and ran for more than thirty miles.

    At this time, something strange happened.

    The Liao army that was escaping in front disappeared completely after turning around a hillside.  There is only one road directly behind the hillside, and it is surrounded by mountains and fields, making it impossible to travel.

    So it is certain that He Chongbao and He Chongyang led the Liao army to the road behind the hillside, but there was no trace of the Liao army passing by on the road.

    Ximen Qing and others all looked at each other in shock, shouting that it was strange, and then the Liangshan army pursued them. After traveling for more than ten miles, they stopped at the mouth of a canyon.

    I saw that the canyon in front of me was several miles long, winding and leading to nowhere, and there were cliffs on both sides of the canyon. The terrain was extremely dangerous. It would be dangerous to ambush above.

    Ximen Qing asked the army to stop advancing.

    "The mysterious disappearance of the Liao army must be hiding somewhere! This canyon is the only road. Could it be said that the Liao army passed through the canyon? Look at the terrain of this canyon. There are steep cliffs on both sides, which is better than the terrain of Yijin Pass.  It's even steeper. If the enemy ambushes here, it will be in trouble!" Ximen Qing asked.

    Wu Yong nodded and said: "Yes, it's too dangerous. If there are ambushes on both sides, we will probably suffer heavy losses! We can't pursue it!"

    When Guan Sheng heard this, he became anxious and said: "Why don't you pursue me? The Liao army is fleeing. How can they think of setting up an ambush? If they can walk over, so can we! Commander?Give the order to set off in pursuit. Don't let the enemy run away!  "

    The others also said: "Yes, Commander, let's pursue him!"

    Ximen Qing shouted: "I can't joke with the lives of my brothers! Send the order quickly and go back!"

    But at this moment, the spy behind him hurriedly ran over from the rear of the army and said: "Come back to the commander, something bad has happened. A large number of Liao troops appeared behind us, with a hundred thousand troops. They were led by a Liao army general and were heading towards us to kill us."  Come!"

    "What?" Ximen Qing was shocked.

    The other leaders were all dumbfounded as if they had swallowed eggs.

    Wu Yong also frowned and said: "It seems that we have been fooled and fallen into the Liao people's plan. But what plan did the Liao army have? Now there are a large number of Liao troops coming from behind, and we are trapped at the mouth of this canyon.  , What a dilemma! Commander, do you think we should fight here, or go through the canyon?"

    Ximen Qing said: "We cannot fight! We are trapped at the mouth of the canyon. If we fight, we will be frustrated. Give me the order to cross the canyon! He Chongbao leads one hundred thousand people, He Chongyang leads eighty thousand people, and there is another one hundred thousand army behind him.  Humph, I don¡¯t believe there are still 50,000 troops in Youzhou! As long as there are no 50,000 troops ambushing us on both sides of the canyon, we can break out! Pass my order and enter the canyon!"

    "Yes!" The herald quickly conveyed the order, and then Ximen Qing rode forward and entered the canyon.
