After many days, Wang Xiaolie was able to get out of bed and move around. His face was still pale, his steps were slippery and weak, and he had to sit down to rest after walking a few steps.

On this day, Wang Xiaolian got out of bed, put on his clothes and walked out the door. Ask the soldiers to bring a chair and sit in the sun.

The snow has melted, and a large sycamore tree stands in front of the yard. The leaves have long since fallen, and dry fruits hang on the branches, swaying gently with the breeze in the sun. Several pine trees nearby grew green, showing their strong posture in the wind.

Wang Ruohai walked in and saw Wang Xiaolie sitting in the yard, and said happily: "Is Xuanfu feeling well?"

Wang Xiaolie said with a smile: "I feel that I have gained strength in the past two days and can get out of bed and walk around. I think I will be fine soon."

"That's good, that's good." Wang Ruohai rubbed his hands happily.

Walking to Wang Xiaolie, Wang Xiaolie asked casually: "Is there anything big happening in the past two days?"

Wang Ruohai said: "It's not a big deal. - It's just that after Zhang Chi arrived in Suide, something unexpected happened."

Wang Xiaolie was startled: "What's going on? Is Suide ready to attack?"

Wang Ruohai said hurriedly: "Of course not. Does Xuanfu still remember Lei Can? When Zhang Chi arrived at Yihe Village, Li Shifu captured Sa Li and drank eastward, and happened to arrive there as well. The two of them went to Suide City together, and Li Yongqi dedicated the city to him. Surrender. Now Sa Lihe is in Shizhou. Because Xuanfu can't move around, he didn't inform him."

Wang Xiaolie smiled and said, "This is a happy event. Even if I can't get out of bed, you should tell me. Have you interrogated Sa Lihe these days? What did he say?"

Wang Ruohai sighed after hearing this. Said: "This Sa Li drank, refused to take soft or hard advice, and only cursed during the interrogation. It looked like he was confident and didn't know what to rely on. After Zhang Chi occupied Suide City, he heard that there was a Jin army in Qingjian City, and he already Send someone over there."

Wang Xiaolie thought for a while and said: "The cities in this area were basically surrendered when the Jin army came over. The soldiers guarding the city now are basically the original defenders, and there are also some Tibetan soldiers and Tibetan generals. Most of the officers and soldiers are Following Zheng Jianchong in Yan'an Prefecture, Suide City and Qingjian City were guarded by Tibetan soldiers and generals. To be honest, among the Tibetan generals there were of course generals like Li Shifu who were devoted to the country, but most of them were still strong. Whoever surrenders will be surrendered. If we defeat the Jin army, the Tibetan generals will surrender. But if we lose, then the Tibetan soldiers and generals are likely to be coerced by the Jin army and become a strong enemy."

Having said this, Wang Xiaolie shook his head: "Sa Li drank hard, but he still believed that he could have the upper hand. There must be an army behind him. He even thought that as long as his army arrived, Suide would be easy. In his case, In their eyes, it’s not necessary to look down on us.”

Wang Ruohai was shocked: "He is already a prisoner, how dare he think so?"

Wang Xiaolie said: "Why don't you think so? He was captured by Li Shifu, not by us on the battlefield. Of course he is not convinced. Okay, you send someone to bring him here, and I will talk to him about his life." . No matter what he thinks, he will have to be dealt with after the war."

Wang Ruohai said yes. Seeing that there was a trace of blood on Wang Xiaolie's face, he went away happily.

Not long after, several soldiers escorted Sa Lihe in. When he arrived in front of Wang Xiaolie, he pressed Sa Lihe's arms firmly.

Sa Lihe looked sideways at Wang Xiaolie and said angrily: "I was accidentally captured by a traitor general and fell into the hands of a kid like you! What a terrible fate!"

Wang Xiaolie said with a smile: "There are many unexpected things on the battlefield, so what's the surprise if the general makes a mistake?"

Sa Li shouted: "Do you dare to let me go and go three rounds with me?"

Wang Xiaolie looked up to the sky and laughed. Said: "General, we are the commanders of an army, not street gangsters. We have to go to three rounds at every turn. The commander of an army depends on the command and whether we can win the battle. Now I have taken you, but I am too lucky. Okay, it’s not much of a skill. But what can you do if you’re lucky? I can’t let you go. Wouldn’t I be a fool?”

After Sa Lihe heard this, he became angry and looked at Wang Xiaolie sideways.

Wang Xiaolie said: "Now that you have finally fallen into my hands, I have to ask a few questions. If you tell me, I will naturally not treat you badly and spare your life in the future. If you don't tell me, I will kill you after the war." Cut it off with one knife and chop off your head!"

After hearing this, Sa Lihe snorted coldly and raised his head.

Wang Xiaolie sighed: "If you want to die, I will naturally help you. With the relationship between the Song Dynasty and the Jin Kingdom, there is no need not to kill the prisoners. After this battle is over, I will chop off your head with one knife. yes."

Seeing that Wang Xiaolie said it casually and clearly meant to kill him, Sa Lihe turned his head away.

Wang Xiaolie said: "Among the prisoners I captured, the one with the highest official position was Ba Lisu. He refused to tell you anything you asked, and even hurt others with his words. After the war, he cut him off with one knife, and he was dead. The second one was Yelu Mawu, although he was not straightforward after being captured, he finally said what he had to say. So he was spared his life, and he is still locked up with the prisoners to work. In a few years, he will be released. "

Sa Li snorted and said nothing.

Yelu Mawu was a Khitan, Ba Lisuze was a general of the Jin Kingdom, and Wan Yan's younger brother, who was an expert in silver, how could they be considered the same? It's okay not to talk about Yelu Mawu, let alone talk about Tarsa Lihe. As a general, Sa Lihe couldn't afford to lose that person.

Wang Xiaolie said: "As the commander of an army, you should not abandon your men and go to Suide City alone. Because of your carelessness, you were captured by Li Shifu. According to common sense, there must be a large army behind you, but it just didn't go your way for a while. That’s it. Isn’t it?”

Sa Lihe glanced at Wang Xiaolie coldly and said nothing.

Wang Xiaolie said: "You are going north from Yan'an Mansion. Needless to say, you are going to find Zheng Jianchong and ask him to send troops to help you fight. Then your army should come from another direction. The other direction of Suide City is There are many forts along the Dali River. However, that is the border with the Xia Kingdom. To mobilize the army there, you must first ask what the Xia Kingdom thinks. You are not a reckless person and will not go there. Then it can only be from Qingjian City. Another direction. Gather the soldiers and horses from Huanqing Road and even Qinfeng Road to the Security Army, then go all the way to Qingjian City along Jinming Village and Anding Fort, and finally gather the Suide Army."

After listening to Wang Xiaolie's words, Sa Lihe couldn't help but frown, looking worried.

Seeing the way Sa Li drank, Wang Xiaolie knew that he had guessed correctly.

Sa Lihe entered Suide City with less than a hundred people, which was obviously against common sense. Although Li Yongqi had surrendered, Sa Lihe still didn't trust him so much. Obviously, there must be a large army behind Sa Lihe. Just going along the way and walking separately.

As long as you know this, the rest is not difficult to analyze. With all options eliminated, Sa Lihe's army could only go along the Jinmingzhai and Andingbao lines.

After a moment of silence, Wang Xiaolie ordered Sa Li to be taken down when he saw that he could not speak after drinking. I really don't have the patience to talk to these people heart to heart and persuade them to surrender. Since he was seeking death himself, it would be better for him to get it done. In the relationship between Song and Jin, there is really no need to treat prisoners well.

When Zhang Chi won the battle, beheaded Sa Lihe and captured Guanzhong, the battle was over.

Can Zhang Chi win this battle? Sa Lihe's army numbered at least several thousand, or even more than five thousand. Zhang Chi only had three regiments of 9,000 men, so his advantage was not large. Can you win?
