April 29th, four days have passed since Xiaoliu and Gouzi set off. Xia Jun has not moved. There are only more than ten riders wandering around like ghosts. As long as the people in Hu Castle are killed, they will not come out.

The rover would never dare to come over.

The soldiers and civilians in the Hu Fort were relatively calm, but they were a little confused. What were these bald thieves doing around the neighborhood day and night? The reason for this was that Sun Zhangong issued a ban order. The people who heard the content of the interrogation that day were the first to be heard.

No external rumor is allowed, otherwise the enemy will not be attacked, and the killing of Hu Fort will be broken. At that time, there will be no large troops. Just a dozen cavalry outside can easily kill all the lost fleeing soldiers and civilians in the wild.

The military soldiers who heard this amazing news that day also knew the seriousness of the matter. Not to mention being too talkative, they didn't even dare to think about it.

The reason why Sun Zhangong can survive until now is because of his hope. Of course, his hope is not what the so-called Taiyuan reinforcements by Guanren Di. This matter is too unreliable. Who doesn’t know that Taiyuan is from the Jinxi Road Army.

Base camp? Look at the appearance of Guan Ren. Maybe he has a friendship with a certain military signing army in Taiyuan City, so he is so sure that there must be a rescue. Even if there are any rescuers, if the Jin soldiers or military signing army comes,

I'm afraid it's not much better than Xia Bing.

Sun Zhangong now puts all his hopes on the soldier he sent to Jialu Village to pay his meritorious service before Li Zhiyong besieged and killed Hubao that day. Whether he was rewarded or not, the soldier who killed Hubao must come back. Once the situation is discovered

If it is not good, you will definitely return to Jialu Village to report. In this way, you will have a chance to be rescued.

Of course, this incident is too variable. Maybe the soldiers have not returned for a long time and the army of Xia Kingdom has arrived; maybe when the soldiers find that the situation is not good, they are also discovered by the Xia Kingdom cavalry... But, is it always a hope, right?

These days, the wounds are safe and well-replaced, and Di Lie's injuries heal quickly. The wounds of normal people can be broken in seven to ten days. With Di Lie's mutation strengthening physique, the stitches will be removed on the third day. Today is

On the fifth day, the wound will basically heal. As long as you try not to do vigorous exercise, the wound will be torn. It will be completely healed within two or three days. Of course, the skin and flesh will recover faster, and the femur that has been cut into two parts will grow again.

It takes at least ten or eight days to produce callus, wrap the broken bones, dissolve and repair it.

However, at this time Di Lie had already removed the fixtures and could walk normally with a crutch, so as not to be unable to touch the ground as soon as he arrived at the Khahu Fort.

After the letter was sent out, Di Lie gave up his thoughts. Now he was waiting for reinforcements to arrive, or his leg injury was completely recovered before he could fight out. Compared to Sun Zhangong's gloomy face that day after day, Di Lie was confident, so he was very relaxed.

Relaxed with pain and having two beauties as a companion. It should have been a good day, but it was troubled by a big problem: food.

That's right, the rice and food for Khahubao are extremely short of food. They usually eat black cakes made of wheat bran or black beans and wild vegetables. However, these things are horse food in the Tianzhu Army.

To be honest, Di Lie has never felt worried about eating this time and space except for eating raw meat and drinking blood in the first few days. Since he entered Taihang Mountain, established Tianshu City, and became the head of a force, he has even had a meal.

Big fish and meat are indispensable. When have you ever eaten such horse food?

Ye Die'er is similar to Zhao Yu'er. Needless to say, Zhao Yu'er is the princess who is dressed in a rich and elegant manner. Ye Die'er is also from an official family. Even though he was captured and plundered north, the Jin army had never treated them badly in this regard.

These beauties prepared to be dedicated to the powerful and powerful people in the court. They have never eaten horse food either.

However, these horse foods are the survival rations for the soldiers and civilians of Hubao.

The food that Di Lie and the other two had already finished, and the next thing they wanted was to eat horse meat. The source of horse meat was the dead horse that was hit on the head four days ago when Xiao Liu and Dog broke through.

Sun Zhangong took advantage of the fact that the Xia army's cavalry was frightened and fled away in all directions, and took the opportunity to get out of the fort and dragged it back. At that time, Sun Zhangong was shocked when he saw the tragic situation of the horse. Only then did he understand why the Xia army, which was crowded with power, suddenly collapsed.

I just don’t know how Li Zhiyong’s fate is more than this dead horse…

Although his head was blown away, a Hequ horse with bones and flesh was indispensable, four or five hundred kilograms, which was enough to kill more than 100 people in Hubao and two for three days of food. Although the horse was a relative of a donkey,

But the taste of horse meat is incomparable to donkey meat, and of course it is even more incomparable to pork and dog meat. Di Lie and his two girls have both eaten horse meat and don’t like this taste very much, but they don’t have a choice at the moment, at least they are better than that

Black cakes are much better.

Eat horse meat and make horse bone soup; meat nourishes meat and bones; Di Lie's injuries gradually healed, but on the fourth day, the bones were gnawed into pieces, and stomach problems became the top priority.

Sun Zhangong did not forget the food rations of Di Lie and the other two, each of which had a black cake, but Di Lie refused. He had never eaten this food substitute, but many of the lower-level soldiers of the Tianzhu Army had eaten this.

Needless to say, the food is unpalatable, it can only fill your stomach. The biggest problem is that hard shit can make you prolapse. Di Lie doesn’t want to have a problem with hemorrhoids, so thank you for being acne.

So how to solve the problem of your stomach? If it was four days ago, it was really impossible. Of course, it’s different now. Di Lie was fine to climb the mountain with crutches, so he decided to go hunting.

There are two not-high peaks five miles northwest of the Shahu Fort. On the other side of the mountain is a big river, a tributary of Jialuchuan. There are no Xia army rangers intercepting it, because the river plays the same role, so naturally it is

There is no need to do this in one go.

Hearing that Di Lie was going to hunt, Sun Zhangong persuaded him with kind words. The cavalry outside was everywhere, and there were dangers everywhere. In addition, the prey on the mountain had been almost hunted by the Hu Fort and nearby fortresses. Last time, he led a dozen of them.

It took a long time for the number of people to go up the mountain to catch a bamboo rat, which was less than ten people stuck between their teeth.

Di Lie smiled and refused with a smile, and asked the two girls to stay. Then he walked out of the fort with a gun box and a crutch alone, staggering out of the fort and heading towards the top of the mountain.

The prey is difficult to hit, one is too little, and the other is too alert. If you see a figure from afar, you will dodge it without any shadow. However, this move is not good for Di Lie, so he used a recharge bullet to hit it two hundred meters away.

The hind legs of the extremely alert deer... When he carried the dozens of pounds of deer, Di Lie sighed with emotion and used Barrett to hunt. It was a waste.

Next is barbecue. You can have no seasonings for barbecue, but you can't have salt, but Sun Zhangong didn't give him salt. In this era, salt and cloth can be used as currency. Asking Sun Zhangong to give salt is equivalent to asking him

The same as giving money, the result can be imagined. What's more, in Khahu Fort, salt is a war preparation material that even if you have money, you can't buy. And this kind of war preparation material. Khahu Fort has less than a kilogram left in the warehouse of Khahu Fort.

...

It doesn't matter if there is no salt. Di Lie, who has rich experience in survival in the wild, naturally has other alternatives. He went to the river to catch some shrimps, floats and algae organisms, and dried them on pebbles. These small organisms themselves contain a small amount of salt.

Then put it in water and cook it. Get light salt water. Then use bundles of wormwood to dip it and brush it on the roasted oily deer meat... Well, it's so fragrant. I haven't eaten it in a long time

It tastes great...

Di Lie has eaten and drunk enough. He held his arms and sat under the dense cypress branches and leaves of the river bank. Looking at the river from the west to the east in front of him, he kept thinking in his mind. The upper reaches of the river are Jialuchuan and Jialuchuan

Next to Luchuan is Jialuzhai, the capital of the Jinning Army. There is the last resistance force of the Song army in Hedong.

In the past few days, Di Lie has discovered a lot of news about the Jinning Army and the Zhejialin Mansion Army from Sun Zhangong. The troops in these three states and one army were originally used by the Song State to resist the states in the northwest of Western Xia.

The border guards, and these two armies did fulfill their missions in a fulfilling manner. However, after the Northern Song Dynasty destroyed the country, a major reversal occurred in Jialin's army and surrendered to Jin.

The Zhe Jialin's army surrendered to Jin, which should be the latest incident, because Sun Zhangong didn't know that there was such a problem. What Di Lie is now worried about is whether the Zhe Jialin's army surrendered to Jin, would the Jin army affect the Jin army? You must know

The current Jinning Army commander Xu Huiyan, the area under which the Jinning Army is governed includes the Jinning Army, Lanzhou, Shizhou, and Lan and Shizhou, which borders Taiyuan Prefecture.

Of course, Shizhou is now in the hands of the Jin army, and the Loufan area in Lanzhou is also under the tug-of-war between the two armies. Sometimes the surname is Jin, but sometimes the surname is Song. Xu Huiyan, the Jinning Army, is also known as Lanzhou Shi (Shi)

The roadside appeasement envoy can really manage the country, but only one army and half of the state.

After the Tianzhu Army conquered Taiyuan, the next step was to attack Xin, Xian and Shizhou, which were surrounded by Jin army, and there were not many Jin troops in these places, and their combat effectiveness was not strong. With the experience of attacking Taiyuan,

It is not difficult to obtain. In this way, the Tianzhu Army's sphere of influence will border the Jinning Army and Lanzhou. If Xu Huiyan also surrendered to the Jin Dynasty, then adding the Zhe Keqiu's Zhe family army will face Taiyuan Prefecture

The side abdomen poses a major threat. This hidden danger must be prevented and eliminated.

More importantly, the Jinning Army borders Lin, Fu, and Fengzhou borders Xixia. Only by controlling this place can we exchange the large amount of sulfur and saltpeter stored in Gansu (Su) Ning (Xia) through trade with Xixia.

If possible, seize one or two mineral lands to truly solve the worries about the Tianzhu Army's gunpowder logistics. Like the Battle of Taiyuan, the situation where there is no rice in the pot will not be staged in other battlefields in the future.

The Zhe family army is the elite of the Western Army, but Di Lie did not take it seriously. The Western Army of Song could not defeat the Liao army that was weaker than the Liao army; the Liao army that was weaker than the emerging Jin army; the emerging Jin army could not defeat the emerging Jin army;

The Tianzhu Army, who was reborn in the fire, was defeated by the hands of the Tianzhu Army. The Western Army, which had not passed through Nirvana, was like a mediocre hand with all six meridians. How could it be with the former Western Army, but now it has opened the "Bridge of Heaven and Earth" and is reborn as the Tian

Compared with the killing army.

The Zhejialin Mansion Army is easy to deal with, just fight, but the Jinning Army is a bit tricky. Di Lie has not dealt with the Song army so far, so how to treat the Song army is a difficult problem. It is definitely not enough to be an enemy, his subordinates

The generals, officials, soldiers, and people all came from the former Song State, and they still had a deep affection for the Song State. Although his soldiers would point their guns at all enemies without hesitation,

It always gives people the excuse of being a "brother's siege". Being a friend? It depends on which army it is. Zong Ze's Tokyo left-behind Sijun may be, Yue's army, and Han's army may be... It's a pity that Zong Ze is afraid

It won't last long before the remaining troops in Tokyo are about to collapse. The Yue family army and the Han family army are still far from being formed, and I don't know if there is still a chance to form in the future...

What about Xu Huiyan? Di Lie knew nothing about this person, so he could not determine whether he was an enemy or a friend. What he could decide now was that if Xu Huiyan surrendered to the Jin Dynasty, he would even take care of it. If Xu Huiyan resisted it, then it would mean

He is very loyal to the Song Dynasty. It's good, just be loyal. Di Lie is better than Zhao Jiu... Well, to be precise, the chips in his hands are more representative of the Song Dynasty...

On the bank of the river and under the mountains, Di Lie's seemingly leisurely expression was gradually forming a plan to solve the problem of the northwest without bloodshed. Well, even if the Xixia people beg him, he would not leave.

...

When Di Lie returned to the Shahu Fort, he had half of the deer meat left in his hand, wrapped in pony leaves, and was not allowed to see the defenders. Otherwise, it would be difficult to say that it would not cause unnecessary trouble. But before returning to the broken house

, but heard a woman shouting angryly, and then a "bang"! A gunshot...

Di Lie was shocked and quickly pulled the crutch into his armpit. The gun box behind him slid onto his hand, holding the rifle box in one hand, and the thumb in the other hand quickly ticked the password disc lock. As soon as he unlocked, a person fell out of the room in a very embarrassing way.

There seemed to be a blood mark on his cheek. The man kept tying his ears and looked uncomfortable. As soon as he stood up with his face covering his face, he was holding an eagle-mouth gun on his forehead...

The man stepped back in horror, and the owner of the Hawk-billed gun slowly appeared.

Huang Jinlu and Zhao Yuqiang.

Touching Di Lie's cold eyes, Huang Jinlu's eyes flashed with anger and turned around and left.

Sun Zhangong and several soldiers who heard the gunshots rushed over: "What's going on..." As soon as he said that, he saw Huang Jinlu with a bad face, and looked at Zhao Yuqiang, who was covered in frost in front of the yard, and understood in his heart.

, Jiufen, hurried forward to apologize.

Di Lie frowned and said, "As a military general, he harasses women, does your army have no punishment for such behavior?"

Sun Zhangong was embarrassed, so there would be no punishment measures? Not only did it happen, but it was also very strict. However, most of the time, it could only be written. If it was the crime of the prison master, or if it was a general, it was the one who was in charge.

He can indeed be severely punished. But he is just a hundred general, so how can he deal with his deputy lieutenant lieutenant? Besides, it is during this sensitive period...

Di Lie stretched out his two fingers: "The second time, this is the second time, and things are only three. If such a thing happens, Sun Zuojiang may be offended."

Although Sun Zhangong was very dissatisfied with Di Lie's tone, he was indeed a fault and it was quite embarrassing to tease the girl. His black face turned red and he bowed his hands and retreated. When Huang Jinlu was standing by his side without saying a word, he was

, Humph.

Di Lie ignored Huang Jinlu's fierce glance when he left, but turned his head and looked at Ye Die'er, who was looking out, and said, "What's going on? It's not dark yet, it's considered to be in broad daylight. Could this guy still dare to move.

Coarse? I remember that after you two killed those two iron kites last time, this guy looked at you with a little fear..."

"Of course it's not what you think..." Ye Die'er whispered shyly, "That Huang Ai team wanted to ask Yu Qian to go with him..."

Di Lie narrowed his eyes: "Let's go? It seems that some people can't withstand the silent pressure, but how do he want to leave?"

Ye Die'er smiled: "He said he is very good at water..."

The water is very good? Di Lie laughed and wanted to swim across the Yellow River? Oh, maybe the big river I saw today can swim over...

"This person is really entangled, so I shot him." Zhao Yuxian inserted the empty gun into the holster and said lightly.

Di Lie smiled and said, "Where is it? You won't get a hole on your head, right? I see, there may be rain."

"I hit the earth wall two feet away from his ear. I think he will have tinnitus and insomnia tonight." Ye Die'er said with a secret smile.
