Xuan and September of the seventh year.

Texas State Road.

Countless people carried their old and young on their backs as they fled to the north of the Yellow River. Along the way, cries, lamentations and shouts could be heard incessantly.

For three days, during these short and long three days, all the citizens in the city who participated in the resistance and defense, including the remnants of the stubbornly resisting Imperial Army and the soldiers of the He Jian Army, were mercilessly killed. It was to the point that in such a large He Jian, even at night, there were no sounds of children crying!

The silence of death suffocated everyone. People continued to flee from the city walls: they would rather die from the fall than to be wantonly humiliated by the Golden Soldiers!

Wushu did not give any instructions to target the citizens who had fled. After three days of massacre, even Wushu himself felt that it was too bloody and bloodthirsty, with citizens escaping, and it was even something Wushu was willing to make room for. This was because He Jian had become the most important base and springboard for the army to move south.

< p > Escape!

In an instant, it had become the main theme of the Hebei continent.

Because once the He Jian was lost, the southwest Zhen Dingyi and southeast Texas would be completely exposed to the metal hooves of the Golden Soldiers!

Compared to Wushu's huge army of a hundred thousand, coupled with the unceasing reinforcements that came from the Yellow Dragon Manor, Zhen Xing and the Texas army that had not even reached ten thousand regular troops looked so helpless and lonely!

The prefectural and prefect of both departments had long since brought their children with them to flee. The several thousand men guarding the city now, who would dare to resist?

When Zhang Shuye had his teeth everywhere on the ground in the Sunset Ridge, he had still not been completely lost. He had most likely become a ghost under the blade of the Golden Soldier, and Chone Shidao, this kind of old general, had still been forced by Wushu to kill himself.

The brutal and invincible concept of the Golden Soldier was deeply branded in the hearts of the people of Hebei, and was difficult to erase.

It was said that the reinforcements sent by the Imperial Court came from Shandong, so most of the people in both places fled to the east.

Zhen Jun and De Zhou quickly fell into Wushu's hands.

Guan Sheng and Qin Ming's vanguard troops were the first to arrive in southeast Texas.

The moment the refugees who had arrived from all over the mountain saw the formation of the Liang Shan reinforcements, they immediately broke out into cheers!

Song Jiang never thought that the first thing he would do on the frontlines would be to organize rescue refugees, and the brave and courageous Guan and Qin Er would actually become a rescue vanguard for a moment!

More than half of the Liang Shan camp were made up of poverty, and it was incumbent upon them to protect and assist the civilians who fled.

Xie E and Song Jiang's army arrived quickly and immediately began to arrange for the rescue of the refugees.

Although Xie E and Song Jiang were travelling together, Xie E discussed more with Wu Yong and Gongsun Sheng about tactics and tactics of fighting against the Golden Soldiers.

Firstly, Xie E did not have the slightest bit of goodwill towards the Song Jiang of the novels of the future; secondly, the Song Jiang in reality seemed to be even more ordinary than the Song Jiang described in the novels, and was tongue-tied to words. Besides the relatively ordinary respect and the necessary enthusiasm on the surface, Xie E did not have many other topics to talk about.

However, when it came to handling the issue of refugees, Song Jiang's performance made Xie E have a whole new level of respect for him!

Song Jiang had actually ordered to use half of his military rations to assist the hundreds of thousands of Hebei citizens, and had even sent Zhu Gui and Lei Heng, the two reliable leaders that Song Jiang trusted the most, to protect the citizens while they travelled, until they were handed over to Ji Nan and Qing Prefecture's Prefect to settle down.

Just because of the location of the commoners, the journey north of Liang Shan Army was delayed for an entire month. And it was precisely because of this month, that the battle situation in Hebei once again worsened.

Wushu had also sent over a hundred thousand elite soldiers from the Yellow Dragon Manor, and had added troops to the army three times. The total number of golden soldiers that had gathered at the He Jian, and had truly set a line, was close to four hundred thousand.

Song Jiang took Wu Yong's strategy of splitting up and attacking together, and called for seventy thousand of Lu Junyi's elite troops, then stealthily went to the north, detour to the northeastern part of the State of Texas, while he himself led eighty thousand soldiers to attack from the front.

Xie E followed along inside Song Jiang's army. Song Jiang sent his trusted aides, Sai Ren Gui, Guo Sheng and Little Wen Hou Lu to protect Xie E closely.

As soon as Black Dragon and his men heard of Song Jiang's arrival, he immediately dispatched 30,000 Black Dragon troops to Lu Ming Shan in the southeast of Texas.

The vanguard troops of Guan Sheng and Qin Ming arrived in southeast Texas first.

The original hundred thousand soldiers were ordered to enter Daxing Mansion from the south. They were the first to take the lead, and were the only natural barriers to reach Daxing Mansion on the river and one of the few in the Hebei plain.

Han Li did not need to seize the brush to build the mountain, in order to successfully attack Da Ming Mansion.

Zhao Huan had been on the mountain for more than a month, and that had been the most humiliating and arduous month since he was born. As a noble and noble imperial family, how could he endure such a life?

Zhao Huan had long since been tempted to make peace, but the barrier of He Jian had already disappeared, and Chone Shidao had lost his life as a nation, which greatly undermined Zhao Huan's fighting spirit!

Zhao Huan did not have much chips left, other than the ready-made Zhou Yu, almost no one else could use it.

Compensation?

All of these things, along with the Golden Soldier's approach, were no longer things that Zhao Huan wanted to fuss about and think about.

Zhao Huan immediately prepared to escape to the famous palace, but Wang Huan and Zhang He both strongly opposed.

Due to the danger of the mountain, they definitely could not give up easily. On the other hand, Lin Chong had already prepared a defensive perimeter long ago.

How could Zhao Huan care about all this, he just wanted to return south, everyone had no choice.

Lin Chong s face was pale as he assigned Hua Rong three hundred cavalry, to first escort Zhao Huan, and then split up and defend the two tunnels with Wang Huan and Zhang He.

Not long after, the vanguard of the Golden Soldiers arrived at the north side of the mountain. The leader of the group was called Xue Li, and he was one of the few fierce generals under Han Li's command.

This time on the way south, the soldiers had not been fighting on the frontlines. They had been fleeing all the way to the southern regions and counties, but they actually did not encounter any resistance. The soldiers were becoming more and more arrogant.

Xue Li drove ten thousand cavalrymen to strut about arrogantly.

Although Wushu had mentioned many times that there was a group of powerful bandits in Pen Rack Mountain, but this obviously did not attract the attention of the army. In fact, Xue Li thought that the strong bandits in the mountain should have escaped long ago.

Xue Li's guess was correct. There were indeed people running away from the mountain, but the ones running away were cowards. As for the real ferocious tiger, it was glaring at them from the mountain!

Xue Li stopped walking on the narrow road and looked at the mountains on both sides. It was strangely quiet, so quiet that it made one's hair stand on end.

Xue Li sucked in a breath of cold air. Such a dangerous place was truly not a place to stay for long.

Xue Li urged his men, "Quick! "Quickly pass the mountain road!"

All the soldiers quickened their pace.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in front. Many people fell into traps similar to those set by hunters. The people behind could not stop and started trampling on each other!
