Xiao Luyegan also felt something was wrong after hearing Yelu Yujian's words. Immediately summoning the generals, Ling Helet led 10,000 cavalry out of the city to attack the west camp of the Yanyun Army, which was the camp at Yelutri west of the city, where there were 30,000 Yanyun troops.
Helet took the order and immediately led 10,000 cavalry out of the city and rushed towards the west camp of Yanyun Army. Arriving outside the gate of the camp, Helet rode his horse to the front of the formation and raised his voice to challenge.
The war drums were beating loudly in the camp, the gate of the camp was opened, and 30,000 Yanyun troops surged out under the leadership of Han Bing, who was dressed in red uniform. When Helet saw this, he was shocked and hurriedly led his cavalry to escape back to Jingzhou. He rushed to Xiao Luyegan and said angrily: "General, who said the main force of Yanyun Army is not here? Aren't they all here?"
Xiao Luyegan frowned and looked at Yelu Yujian. When Yeluyu saw it, he thought, "Maybe there will be something going on in the south camp and in the east camp." Lu Yegan then sent He Lete and led 10,000 cavalry to challenge the south camp and the east camp respectively. All the Yanyun troops in the south camp and the east camp came out to fight. There is not a single soldier missing at all.
Yelu Yujian said very puzzledly: "This is strange! Since the army is here, why not attack the city?"
Mag said angrily: "You are clearly scared out of your mind by Yang Peng! Yan Yunjun is not a god. Under this situation, both sides have equal strength. What benefits can he get from rushing to attack the city?" Lu Yegan said: "General, the Yanyun Army is clearly waiting for the siege equipment from the rear to be shipped up. There is no conspiracy!" Lu Yegan nodded with deep understanding. All the golden generals looked at Yelu Yujian with a smile.
Yelu Yujian was a little depressed, feeling that all the things he had gained from being a seller were not as good as what he had already had! The rebellious mood couldn't help but arise in my heart. However, this idea was killed by him as soon as it appeared. He had already rebelled once. If he rebelled again, regardless of whether the general and the others would believe it, he believed that the treatment he would receive after he went there would definitely be much worse than now. , not to mention that he has already formed a deadly feud with Xiao Duoli. If he relies on others, his life will be in danger day by day!
Yelu Yujian returned to his military camp, and his worries about Longshan still lingered. He used to be the main general of the Yanyun Army's Allied Forces. He knew the Yanyun Army's fighting methods very well. Although he still didn't know what General Yang Peng's Yanyun Army had planned, he intuitively felt that the opponent's goal must be Longshan!
Several trusted generals came in, clasped their fists together and said, "General."
Yelu Yujian recovered his thoughts, raised his head, and said to Chang Sheng: "Chang Sheng, you immediately secretly lead an army to Longshan and ambush at the foot of Longshan in case of unexpected events." The generals showed confusion, Chang Sheng Asked: "Did the general find anything?" Yelu Yujian shook his head, "I haven't found anything yet, but I always feel a chill down my spine. I feel that the general's style above does not intend to drive us out. Forget about Jingzhou, he must want to annihilate us! And the key point must be Longshan!"
The generals were shocked and confused. Chang Sheng said: "But the mobilization of the army must be ordered by Lu Yegan!" "You go and prepare. I will go to Lu Yegan's place to ask for instructions." Chang Sheng promised with fists clasped and left the big tent.
At midnight, Yelu Yu saw his general Chang Sheng leading a thousand troops to quietly leave the city and head towards Longshan.
At the same time, Duan Zhixian led the 600 Xuanjia Army and 10,000 Yanyun War Cavalry, as well as Han Bing, and the Xiying South Camp troops led by Xiao Duoli quietly left the camp. The nearly 20,000 Yanyun Army infantry from the East Camp also At the same time, they left the camp, led by Zhu Tong, and moved towards Longshan silently under the cover of night. At the foot of Longshan, more than 500 masked men in black, armed to the teeth, were walking towards Longshan from a cliff. Climb above. It turned out that Yang Peng led five hundred secret guards to climb up the mountain from this cliff to attack the Liao army camp.
Now Yang Peng's plan can be explained. Yang Peng's plan was that the army led by Han Bing, Duan Zhixian and Xiao Duoli would ambush outside the north gate of Jingzhou. Li Zheng would lead 20,000 infantry troops and sneak to the foot of Longshan quietly, while Yang Peng would lead 500 secret guards from behind. Climb up the cliffs on the east side, enter the Liao army camp on the mountain, and launch a surprise attack. Once the raid was successful, Li Zheng sent his army to attack the mountain.
This cliff was very dangerous. Although Yang Peng and his secret guards had undergone extremely strict special warfare training, they climbed very hard and slowly. Because the cliff was too high, they could only climb up section by section, resting at each section before continuing to climb. It took two full hours for more than 500 people to climb onto the cliff. The top of the cliff is higher than the camp on Longshan Mountain. To the east of the camp, the vegetation is sparse, and a gentle slope extends from here to the wall on the east side of the camp.
At this time, the stars and moon have been covered by dark clouds, the night wind is blowing across the hills, the lights in the camp are dim, and the shadows of several sentries are looming under the lights.
Yang Peng whispered to the three secret guard captains Zhang Daniu, Xue Fu, and Wang Kai beside him: "It has not been long, and the layout of this camp should not have changed. Zhang Daniu, you lead a hundred secret guards to sneak into the grain and grass storage area, When you see the signal rocket, you will immediately set it on fire," Zhang Daniu promised with clasped fists.
"Xue Fu, you lead a hundred secret guards to the stables. When you see the signal rocket, you immediately mount your horse and charge into the camp!" "Yes!"
Yang Peng looked at Wang Kai, who was the newly promoted secret guard captain. He was an energetic, lean and capable young man, very loyal and brave, and his eyes often showed the eagerness to perform tasks. When Wang Kai saw Yang Peng looking at him, he quickly clasped his fists and asked, "What are you doing, subordinate?"
Yang Peng smiled and patted his shoulder, pointed to the location of the camp tent below, and asked, "Have you seen the tent?" Wang Kai nodded, "Yes." "You lead a hundred secret guards. Sneak into the vicinity of the big tent, see the signal rocket, and immediately rush in and kill the enemy commander." Wang Kai excitedly clasped his fists and said: "My subordinates will definitely complete the mission!"
Yang Peng said: "I will lead the other two hundred secret guards to seize the village gate. Remember, if there is an emergency, you don't have to wait for a signal, you can act immediately! After success, set fire everywhere and shout: Yan Yun's army is coming, General Dead. Do you understand?" The three of them nodded together.
"Okay! Action!"
Five hundred secret guards quietly descended the hillside and came to the east wall of the camp. Several secret guards deliberately pretended to be wild beasts and made a few noises. The sentries behind the wall heard the sound and walked to the edge of the wall to look outside. But suddenly they saw a black shadow rushing forward. Several sentries were shocked. Before they could react, the black shadow pinched their necks and pierced their chests with a knife. The secret guard gently put down the bodies of several sentries and gestured to those behind, and the secret guards immediately climbed over the wall and entered the camp like a civet cat.
At this time, the sentry on a nearby watchtower noticed something strange, was startled, and was about to shout a warning. But before he could make a sound, the secret guard who climbed up the sentry tower from behind covered his mouth and nose and cut his throat. Yin Sha gently put the sentry down. At the same time, the sentries on the surrounding sentry towers were all captured and killed.
Zhang Daniu led a hundred hidden soldiers to sneak into the grain and grass storage yard, touched the guards at the grain and grass storage yard, and lurked down, waiting for Yang Peng's signal; Xue Fu led a hundred hidden soldiers to sneak into the stables, killed the guards, and lurked on standby; Wang Kai Then sneak into the vicinity of the big tent.
The lights in the big tent were bright, and the lights reflected the two figures on the tent's cloth wall. A petite figure was running away, crying repeatedly, and a strong figure behind him chased after him with a grin. Wang Kai couldn't hold back when he saw such a scene, but Yang Peng's signal hadn't been sent yet, so he didn't dare to act rashly.
Yang Peng led two hundred hidden soldiers to sneak near the village gate. After observing, he found that there were about five hundred Jin troops guarding the front gate. Yang Peng turned his head and nodded to a secret guard behind him. The latter immediately took out a signal rocket from his quiver, lit the fuse, and shot into the night sky, bang! The rocket exploded into a dazzling spark in the night sky.
Almost at the same time, Yang Peng led two hundred hidden soldiers and rushed forward. He held a special steel crossbow and shot at the Liao army guarding the village gate while advancing with a special forces assault gait. The arrows kept flying out in a whistling manner, catching the Liao army off guard. The soldiers were shot down one after another. The Liao army soldiers who came back to their senses shouted and rushed forward. Yang Peng and the others continued to shoot. It was not until the Liao army rushed in front of them that Yang Peng and some of the hidden soldiers put down their steel crossbows and drew out their horizontal swords. They rushed forward, while the other group of hidden killers still approached and shot at close range.
At this time, the Liao army was still more numerous than Yang Peng and the others, but Yang Peng and the secret guards were like tigers entering the flock of sheep. Under the flash of swords, blood rain flew all over the sky, and the Khitan soldiers fell into a pool of blood. At the same time, , the arrows flying out from close range continued to kill the Khitan soldiers. In the blink of an eye, the Khitan army guarding the gate of the village suffered all their casualties.
At the same time, raging flames burst into the grain and grass storage yard; thunderous hoofbeats came from the direction of the stables, and tens of thousands of horses were seen galloping, flattening countless tents and the Khitan soldiers inside; Wang Kai then led his men secretly The guards suddenly rushed out, killed the guards outside the tent, rushed into the tent, and cut the Khitan army leader who was caught off guard in two.
Immediately, each team killed people and set fire everywhere, and shouted loudly: "The Yanyun Army came in, the general is dead!" Faced with such a chaotic scene, the Khitan Army officers and soldiers heard everywhere shouting "Yanyun Army" Fighting in, the general is dead!" They were panicked, not knowing what to do, and it was chaos.
Just when Yang Peng had just sent out the signal rocket, Li Zheng led 20,000 infantry who had just arrived at the foot of the mountain. When they saw the signal, they were about to climb the mountain. However, they unexpectedly encountered the Changsheng Division who had been ambushing here to block the attack. Chang Sheng and others relied on the mountains to block Li Zheng's advance. Li Zheng saw that the opponent's number was not large, so he charged with all his troops and dispersed Chang Sheng's troops in one go. Li Zheng ignored the defeated troops and led his troops to rush towards the mountain at full speed.
At this time, the Khitan army in Jingzhou also discovered the huge fire on Longshan Mountain. Knowing that something had changed, they immediately ignored Jingzhou and rushed out of the city to aid Longshan.
After all, the Jin army is an army that has fought hundreds of battles. After a short period of chaos, they found that there were not many enemies in front of them, so they launched a fierce counterattack against the enemies who entered the camp. The secret guards used various means and obstacles to fight against the Khitan army. They took the time to set fire to the unlit tents, and the camp was still in chaos.
A Khitan Army general discovered Yang Peng and shouted loudly: "It's Yang Peng! It's Yang Peng!" Then countless Khitan Army soldiers howled and rushed toward Yang Peng. Yang Peng and the secret guards used steel crossbows to kill the rushing Khitan soldiers one after another. Seeing the Khitan soldiers rushing towards them, they immediately abandoned their steel crossbows and drew their horizontal knives to fight. Relying on their absolute superiority in numbers, the Khitan army officers and soldiers rushed Yang Peng and the others into disarray. Yang Peng and the others had seen each other trapped in the enemy army and fighting on their own.
Yang Peng was the most conspicuous target, and the Khitan soldiers rushed towards him like crazy. Yang Peng swung his sword across the enemy army, slashing, cutting, or sweeping. The Khitan soldiers were all splashed with blood on the spot. Yang Peng entered the flock like a tiger, slashing at the direction of the sword, killing eleven Khitan army generals and subordinates. , the Khitan army finally became frightened, and the offensive could not help but come to a halt.
At this moment, the 20,000 Yanyun infantry led by Li Zheng finally arrived, poured into the camp from the village gate, and attacked the Khitan army fiercely. The Khitan army was already in chaos, but now it was suddenly attacked fiercely by 20,000 Yanyun infantry. It was unable to withstand the defeat and was defeated like a mountain. The flags were in chaos and they ran backwards in confusion.
Yang Peng regained his composure and wiped the blood stains on his cheeks. The female guard captain Jiang Li also came in with the army, leading two horses, and her beautiful eyes were looking for Yang Peng in the chaotic camp. Suddenly he saw Yang Peng, with a look of joy on his beautiful face, and he quickly led the two horses and ran over.
"Master!" Jiang Li called.
Yang Peng turned around.
Jiang Li Yanran said: "I brought the master's war horses, armor, and ordnance."
Yang Peng smiled and nodded, immediately walked to the Black Dragon Colt, and with Jiang Li's help, quickly put on his armor. When he was done, he got on his horse and raised his horse. Jiang Li also got on her horse and stood beside Yang Peng. Yang Peng looked up and saw Li Zhengzheng leading the army to crush the Khitan army. There was no longer any suspense in the battle. Turning around and looking down the mountain, I saw that the torches at the foot of the mountain were like fireflies with no end in sight, divided into two parts, one after the other, sometimes gathering and sometimes dispersing, rushing towards Longshan Mountain, mixed with chaotic shouts and fighting sounds.
Yang Peng frowned and said to Jiang Li: "Go and tell Li Zheng immediately. After driving the enemy out of the camp, leave it alone and immediately turn back to resist the enemy's brigade!" Jiang Li agreed and ran down.
Yang Peng turned the horse's head and came to the gate of the village. He held the iron horse and looked down at the foot of Longshan Mountain.
At this time, a large force of Khitan troops led by Lu Yegan was rushing towards the mountain, while a large number of Yanyun troops led by Han Bing, Xiao Duoli and Duan Zhixian were chasing after them. The scene was very chaotic. Not long ago, Lu Yegan and others were shocked when they saw the fire in Longshan. They immediately rushed out to rescue Longshan. Unexpectedly, just as they went out, they were besieged by the Yanyun army who had been waiting nearby. The Khitan army Caught off guard and defeated, the remaining defeated generals ran towards Nong Mountain. Naturally, Han Bing, Duan Zhixian and Xiao Duoli couldn't let them go, so they chased and killed them fiercely.
The Khitan soldiers fled outside the camp panting, but they were shocked to see General Yanyun Yang Peng standing in front of the camp.
Yang Peng shouted: "You have no way to escape. If you don't want to die, get off your horse and be bound!"
The Khitan army officers and soldiers looked at each other in shock. At this time, the shouts of the Yanyun army came from down the mountain again, and the Khitan army officers and soldiers were even more frightened. Xiao Lu Yegan swallowed his saliva and said: "The matter is now over, I think we..." Yelu Yujian didn't wait for Lu Yegan to speak, and said urgently: "We must not surrender! Yan Yunjun has always been ruthless. No prisoners of war will be left in every battle. If we lay down our weapons, we will die without a burial place!" These words shocked Xiao Luyegan and others. Yeluyu saw this and said again: "You are Khitan warriors. You deserve to die on the battlefield. How can you live in an ignoble way?" The generals of the Jin Army unconsciously showed expressions of shame. "The matter has come to this, it's better to fight! Whether you live or die depends on God's will!" All the Khitan army generals couldn't help but become desperate.
Xiao Luyegan shouted: "The warriors of Daliao will only die if they are caught by Yanyun's army. If you want to survive, just charge with me!" The fighting spirit of the Khitan army soldiers was inspired, and they roared towards the mountain. Go.
Yang Peng frowned, quickly put the Iron Horse on the ring, took out the Cloud-piercing Bow, and shot an arrow at the Khitan generals and Lete who were rushing in front. With a whoosh, Lete and Lete turned over in response. fall! Yelu Yujian shouted urgently: "The shield men come forward! Everyone, be careful!"
Hundreds of shield bearers immediately swarmed to the front, almost completely blocking Yang Peng's sight. Yang Peng put down the Cloud-piercing Bow, picked up the Iron Horse, turned the horse's head and returned to the camp. I happened to see Li Zheng coming back with his infantry. Li Zhengyang said: "Line up on the spot and prepare to fight!" After hearing the order, all the soldiers immediately stopped advancing and lined up on the spot, with sword and shield bearers, heavy shield and spearmen in front, crossbowmen and Modao army behind. Stand ready. Yang Peng rode his horse back to the back of the military formation and stared at the village gate in front.
I saw a large black wave surge up suddenly, and then surged in from the gate of the village. The Khitan army soldiers rushed up with howls. They all tried their best to survive!
Yang Peng shouted: "Fire the arrow!"
The crossbowman immediately fired his arrows, and the arrows, as dense as locusts, immediately caused a storm, blowing the flames of the torches and blowing them here and there. The Khitan army officers and soldiers were shot down, but the Khitan army behind them still roared crazily and surged forward. Colliding into the Yanyun Army's front line, the huge force forced the Yanyun Army's formation to dent. The Khitan Army soldiers wildly waved their scimitars and spears, hitting their shields with a loud "ding-dong-dong-dong" sound. , from time to time, soldiers of the Yanyun Army were wounded and fell to the ground; the soldiers of the Yanyun Army desperately resisted the defense line, shouting and seeing that the momentum of the surge was gradually contained.
When the forward momentum of the Khitan army was contained, the Yanyun army's heavy-shielded spearmen immediately thrust their spears out from the gap between the shields. The Khitan army could not avoid being shot and fell to the ground!
push! The officers and soldiers of the Yanyun Army worked together and took a sudden step forward, pushing the Khitan army back and staggering. Then the heavy-shielded spearman thrust out his spear again, and many Khitan army soldiers were stabbed to the ground again! The Yanyun Army continued to move forward, stepping on the corpses of the Khitan Army, constantly harvesting the lives of the Jin Khitan Army soldiers with every push and thrust!
The Khitan army officers and soldiers could not help but panic.
At this moment, the armies led by Han Bing, Duan Zhixian, and Xiao Duoli arrived one after another and stabbed the Khitan army in the butt. The Khitan army is under attack from two sides, and the situation is in danger!
Maybe it's the Khitan Army. It seemed that the Khitan army was about to be completely wiped out, but at this stall, a huge shout suddenly came from the north, and tens of thousands of Khitan troops came up the mountain from the north and poured into the camp. How is this going? It turned out that Yeluzuo, the magistrate of the Liao State stationed in Luanhe, received a letter asking for help sent by Xiao Lu Yegan before, and immediately led all 20,000 Khitan troops in Luanhe City to rush to Jingzhou's aid. But he didn't expect to encounter the Longshan village defenders who had fled down the mountain before they climbed the mountain. Yeluzuo stopped the defeated army, asked about the situation, and felt that the situation was critical. He immediately gathered the defeated army and led the defeated army and 20,000 troops under his command towards Longshan Mountain. When he came to Longshan Mountain, he happened to see Lu Yegan and others in desperate situation, and immediately sent his troops to attack the stronghold to rescue Lu Yegan and others.
The 20,000 Yanyun Army infantry in the stronghold suddenly found a large number of enemies rushing up from behind. They were startled, and the rear troops quickly turned around to face the enemy. However, the incident happened suddenly and the enemy army was so numerous that the situation was very unfavorable as soon as the battle started.
Lu Yegan, who was already desperate, saw reinforcements coming, and his morale was immediately boosted. He mustered up all his strength to risk his life and attack violently. The Yanyun Army's heavy shield and spearmen were pushed back by the huge force. Han Bing, Duan Zhixian and Xiao Duoli attacked Lu Yegan and others fiercely, killing the Khitan army until their bodies were scattered all over the hillside.
The 20,000 Yanyun troops in the camp finally failed to withstand the desperate conflict between the two armies of the Khitan army and were torn apart from the defense line. The two Khitan armies met, cheered, and then ran wildly down the mountain. The Yanyun army in the camp suddenly cut off the fleeing enemy troops. At this time, almost half of the troops, including generals such as Lu Yegan Yelu Yujian, had escaped from the encirclement. The Khitan soldiers who were once again trapped in a tight siege had no intention of fighting and knelt down one after another to beg for surrender. A great battle has come to an end.
Yang Peng handed over the responsibility of cleaning the battlefield to Duan Zhixian and Xiao Duoli, while he and Liu Zhiliang led all the light cavalry down Longshan to pursue the enemy.
Before the soldiers of the Khitan Army who had just escaped could rejoice that they were lucky, they heard the rumble of horse hooves behind them. They all looked back and saw the Yanyun Army's cavalry chasing after them with murderous intent! The Khitan soldiers were so frightened that they fled for their lives in a hurry! The Yanyun Army's cavalry fought all the way, and the Khitan Army's defeated troops who had no time to escape were cut down to the ground. Lu Yegan and other thousands of defeated generals rushed across the bridge on the Luanhe River and rushed to the Luanhe Prefecture City in front, with Yanyun's warriors and cavalry following them closely. Lu Yegan and others rushed into the city gate, but before they could close the city gate, the Yanyun Army's cavalry followed them and rushed into the city. Lu Yegan and others did not dare to stay, so they crossed the city and escaped from the east gate. Yang Peng led his cavalry to chase him out of the east gate and continued the pursuit, pursuing death and chasing north, moving forward indomitably. At this point, the Khitan army's middle army, which intended to suppress Yan Yun, completely collapsed.
At the same time, Duan Zhixian led the Xuanjia Army and 5,000 cavalry to defeat Yelvzuo's resistance, crushing the defeated troops and heading towards Bei'anzhou.
The sun rose and then set, but Han Bing, who was on Longshan Mountain, didn't see Yang Peng and the others coming back, and he couldn't help but feel worried. At this time, a scout was seen galloping towards him. Han Bing hurriedly greeted him. The scout rushed to Han Bing, reined in his horse, turned over and dismounted, and reported: "Miss Qi, the general has conquered Luanhe Prefecture, crossed Dushan, and is chasing death in the north!"
Xiao Duoli exclaimed: "We have already passed Dushan! But why hasn't the general returned to the army yet? He wouldn't want to attack Liao's east-route army with just these troops, would he!?"
What happened after all, let’s see what happens next.
