The Jin army camp became more and more chaotic, and Liangshan's attacks continued. The Jin army, which had lost its command in the dark night, had no idea what to do. Even the generals roared and couldn't stop it.
The Liangshan army attacked from the outside, while Tiefutu attacked from inside. Soon Tiefutu killed outside the Chinese army's tent, separating the chaos from the Chinese army.
"Fight out with me!"
Wan Yanchang looked at the assembled Tiefu Tu and said, the military camp cannot continue to be chaotic.
"kill!"
Iron Buddha shouted loudly at the same time.
"Tieniu, it's time to go!"
Bao Xu heard the shouts from the enemy's center and knew that the enemy had recovered from the chaos and had to withdraw.
"I haven't killed enough yet!"
Li Kui chopped off the head of an enemy who was not in a hurry to escape with an axe.
"How many have you killed! Isn't it enough?"
Bao Xu slapped Li Kui with the Sangmen Sword. This iron bull was so murderous that no amount of killing was enough.
"Walk!"
Li Kui actually felt tired. Wearing heavy armor and slashing like crazy was very draining of energy. Although he was as strong as an ox, he was just a body of flesh and blood. Tiredness was bound to happen.
The trapped camp began to withdraw from the enemy camp, and the surrounding cavalry units that were harassing them also began to withdraw. By the time the Jurchens' Tiefutu rushed out, the Liangshan army had already retreated to Xijin Mansion.
"Gather your soldiers and strengthen your vigilance!"
Wan Yanchang did not pursue him. He was not sure whether the enemy had an ambush. There were too many variables in the dark night.
At this time, Wan Yanchang was extremely fearful of Liangshan. These southerners did not seem to be cowardly. Although they were surrounded, they dared to go out of the city for a sneak attack, which they had never thought of before.
In Wan Yanchang's eyes, the enemies who had not arrived at Xijin Prefecture did not dare to leave the city. Now that the army was ready, the enemy had the courage to leave the city, but the enemy was caught off guard.
The Jin army couldn't sleep anymore that night, and the whole army stayed on guard until dawn and then breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother, I'm afraid these people won't come again today!"
Zhu Wu said, although a night attack in Liangshan last night could not kill more than 10,000 enemies, it put a lot of pressure on the Jin army. They had not slept all night, and coupled with the fear caused by the night attack, the Jin army was now exhausted. , the combat strength is less than 70%.
"I'm afraid these people are going to plunder today!"
Sun Lei touched his chin and said, the enemy did not bring much food and grass when they came over the mountain. In the past few days, they have only consumed but no supplies. The logistics supplies may have been exhausted.
But now the Jin army and the resentful army are exhausted and their morale is low. At this time, if they want to boost their morale, they need to have the army well fed all day long.
"Brother, I'll wait out of the city to ambush you!"
Huang Xin and others immediately spoke.
"No, the enemy not only wants to plunder, but also wants to force us out of the city!"
Zhu Wu opened his mouth and said that the enemy had the advantage in numbers. If they went out to fight out of the city, they would most likely be quickly surrounded and killed by the enemy's cavalry. The most taboo thing about fighting an enemy dominated by cavalry was to rush on the plain without cover.
"If you want to plunder, let them go. The Jin Kingdom can gather so many resentful troops in a short period of time, and the soldiers are not all around. Since these people have chosen to betray, they should bear this."
Sun An opened his mouth and said that almost all the hundred thousand resentful troops were recruited from within a hundred miles of Xijin Mansion. Nowadays, the Jurchens will not leave this area if they want to plunder.
Of course there are many innocent people among them, but sometimes no one is innocent, and war always kills people.
"Actually, it's not that we can't go out of the city to fight. We don't have the equipment to deal with the cavalry on the plains!"
Sun Lei touched his chin and said, "What Zhu Wu and Sun An said makes sense. If they hold on to Xijin Mansion at this time, they will be invincible. Leaving the city will only increase the risk."
"Brother, although we have chariots, the enemy is no better than the Liao Kingdom. They have heavy cavalry that can break the formation!"
Zhu Wu opened his mouth and said that the Liao Kingdom was full of light cavalry, and they could only rush forward with light cavalry and attack in roundabout ways, but the Jin Kingdom was different. The Jin Kingdom had a large number of heavy cavalry, which could potentially break through solid defenses.
"I know, but as long as the risk is bearable, it's not unacceptable."
"This does not mean that I am soft-hearted and do not want the Jurchens to plunder, but that I cannot allow the Jurchens to have too many supplies. Once these people have enough supplies, even if the news of Wanyan Aguda's death comes, the effect will be limited. We must let them The enemy has suffered setbacks in the war, is suffering from hunger and cold, and will have a severe blow to their military morale. Only then will they be defeated, and after that, I don’t want so many people to return to Liaodong alive!”
Sun Lei looked at the Jin army in the distance and said, if more than 100,000 young men and women return to Liaodong alive, there will be another big problem in the coming year.
Zhu Wu frowned and thought. Sun Lei's words made sense. Last night's attack had made them aware of the Jurchens' tenacity. It would not be easy to defeat them. If they had enough food and grass, even if they knew Wanyan Agu had been beaten to death, they would grit their teeth. It's not impossible to carry it back.
As for letting so many young men return to Liaodong, that is unacceptable. This is an army of hundreds of thousands. If they continue to invade the border in the coming year, it will be very annoying, involve a lot of troops, and cost a lot of money.
Now that Liangshan's ambitions are in the world, how can he be so restrained by the Jurchen Jin Kingdom?
Zhu Wu did not speak to dissuade him. As Sun Lei said, as long as the risk is bearable, it is worth a try.
"Brother, I will take the lead!"
Li Kui, who was covered in blood, came over and said.
"Go wash it quickly, sister Qiuxia, you will supervise me!"
Sun Lei looked at Li Kui's bloody body and frowned.
This guy Li Kui just likes to do things like this. In his mind, blood and heads are merit and glory. He would like to tie the heads of his enemies to his waist and show them off everywhere.
But Sun Lei didn't like this. He was covered in blood and dirty and easily infected with diseases. Sun Lei was very interested in military hygiene. Sooner or later, a plague would break out like Li Kui's.
"Walk!"
Pang Qiuxia glared at Li Kui fiercely. She couldn't stand the blood-stained appearance of Li Kui, who looked like a complete beast.
Li Kui had no choice but to go down the city wall to wash it off.
"Brother, when are we leaving the city?"
Ma Jin asked.
"No hurry, let's wait!"
Sun Lei shook his head. The enemy hadn't gone out to plunder yet. They would only alert the enemy when they left the city.
In the Jin camp outside the city, although the turmoil has subsided, the morale of the army is low. This is not only the resentful army, but also the army they brought from Liaodong.
"Capital, we will continue to attack Jin Mansion today and we must kill them all!"
Wanyan Oru and Wanyan Zongfu spoke angrily. They were responsible for commanding 100,000 resentful troops. They were attacked last night. The resentful troops under their command were the most chaotic and had the heaviest casualties. The turmoil also affected the central army. They couldn't swallow this. tone.
"No, now that morale is low, how can we attack the city?"
Wan Yanchang directly rejected the two men's invitation to fight. To attack the city at this time would be to risk death.
"The two of you brought four thousand men and horses to plunder the surrounding areas to replenish the army with food and grass!"
Wan Yanchang finally looked at the two men and ordered that instead of attacking the city, it would be better to plunder, as they did not have much food and grass.
