The Xixia envoy thought for a while, frowned and said: "It is useless to talk more. We can only report the news to the Generalissimo as soon as possible and ask him to pay attention."
The main force of the Liao Kingdom led by Ye Qian Hucheng retreated for three consecutive days. On the fourth day, the army suddenly changed its course and advanced towards Yanmen Pass. It had retreated very slowly before, but now it was moving as fast as fire. When I saw my own army opening a gap in Yeqihu City, I was very excited. Yeqihu City pointed over there and said anxiously: "If we put more force, we might be able to break through tonight!" Xiao Ye Gan responded, shouted at his soldiers and horses, and then led his soldiers and horses to run in that direction. The Khitan army attacked the gap more fiercely. The Junfu army, led by several generals Yanyun, fought back desperately. However, the gap continued to expand. After all, the Junfu army's combat power could not be compared with that of the regular army!
Yanmen Pass is crumbling and may be breached by the Khitan army at any time!
"Eh? What's going on?" Han Chang suddenly pointed behind him and shouted. Everyone couldn't help but turn around and look, and suddenly they saw the flames billowing in the military camp, and the fire was soaring into the sky. Everyone was shocked. Da Lan couldn't help shouting: "Why is the military camp on fire!?" He found a gap and was extremely excited. Ye Qi Hucheng pointed over there and said urgently: "If you put more force, we might be able to break through tonight!" Xiao Yegan responded and shouted to his soldiers and horses. With a sound, he immediately led his soldiers and horses to run in that direction. The Khitan army attacked the gap more fiercely. The Junfu army, led by several generals Yanyun, fought back desperately. However, the gap continued to expand. After all, the Junfu army's combat power could not be compared with that of the regular army!
Yanmen Pass is crumbling and may be breached by the Khitan army at any time!
"Eh? What's going on?" Han Chang suddenly pointed behind him and shouted. Everyone couldn't help but turn around and look, and suddenly they saw the flames billowing in the military camp, and the fire was soaring into the sky. Everyone was shocked. Da Lan couldn't help shouting: "Why is the military camp on fire!?" Yeqi Hucheng frowned, " Damn it, the Yanyun Army must have seen that Yanmen Pass was in danger, so they made a desperate move, gathered their elite troops, came down from Yingchou Stream or Black Dragon Pond, and raided our military camp, hoping to force us to retreat! Humph, will I be fooled?"
Han Chang frowned and said: "Your Majesty, whether it is Black Dragon Pond or Yingchou Stream, we have left a large number of open and hidden sentries. If there are enemies coming out, is there any reason why we can't detect them?"
Ye Qian Hucheng was stunned for a moment, then he thought: "Maybe there is another way that we don't know about?" He frowned, "Ignore him, Yanmen Pass is about to break through, even if it burns your butt, don't pay attention! If the military camp is burned, burn it. Come on!" All the generals shouted in agreement, like a group of impulsive beasts. Although a few thoughtful generals felt a little uneasy, they felt that Yeqi Hucheng's words made sense, so they didn't say anything more. .
Everyone's eyes returned to Yanmen Shuan, and they found that the offensive of their own army had slowed down, and the gap that had been torn open was gradually being blocked by Yan Yun's army. Their own army seemed to be a little distracted. Ye Qihu City was furious and cursed: "What the hell, why is the attack getting weaker and weaker!?" Han Chang frowned and said: "I'm afraid the soldiers were frightened when they saw the military camp being attacked, so the offensive was not as good as before. Yes!" Yeli Hucheng frowned.
After a while, the gap opened by the Khitan army was actually blocked by the Yanyun army. The Khitan army's offensive became increasingly unsightly. Ye Qian Hucheng was very angry. Dallan said: "Your Majesty, the strength of the army has been exhausted. It will be in vain to continue fighting. It is better to suspend the attack and return to the army to recapture the camp, so as to avoid the worries of the soldiers." Yeli Hucheng was unwilling in his heart, but he also knew that at this moment, it was too late. That was all he could do, so he shouted loudly: "Stop the attack and take back the camp! Long Ba, lead all the light cavalry to go first!" Long Ba agreed and immediately rode off, and then saw a surge of Khitan cavalry. , thunder rumbled in the ears, more than 100,000 Khitan army warriors gathered together, and then rushed towards the burning camp, the soldiers were extremely anxious.
Soon after, the infantry brigade assembled and rushed towards the camp. Tiefutu, led by Xiao Yegan, stayed at the end to prevent Yanyun's army from taking the opportunity to kill.
Long Ba led hundreds of thousands of warriors and hurried back to the military camp, only to see that the entire military camp was burning fiercely. Under the light of the fire, he saw many corpses lying strewn on the ground; the Khitan soldiers who stayed behind in the camp Some of them were busy putting out the fire, and some were rescuing their companions. They all looked very panicked. As for Yan Yunjun, not a single person was seen.
An officer with a blackened face rushed to Long Ba, saluted, and said happily: "General Long Ba, you are back!" Long Ba asked, "Where is the Yanyun Army?" The officer looked at it. Looking around, "They were killing people everywhere just now, but now they are all gone. They must have seen the general coming, so they ran away!" Long Ba was very depressed, feeling that he had nowhere to vent his anger, and hurriedly asked the officer: : "Which direction did they flee to?" The officer said: "Well, I don't know about this!" Long Ba said angrily: "It doesn't matter if you can't win when you are attacked, you don't even know which direction the enemy is fleeing to. You know, what a waste!!" The officer said obediently.
Long Ba thought for a moment, then turned to the general beside him and said: "Send a thousand cavalrymen, divided into ten teams, to search for traces of Yanyun's army!" The general responded and immediately ordered a thousand cavalrymen under his command to go to Shimian. search! Long Ba then ordered: "Part of the troops and horses are on guard, and the rest of the troops and horses immediately go to put out the fire!" All the soldiers immediately obeyed, and some of the troops and horses followed Long Ba and immediately guarded outside the camp, while the rest of the cavalry jumped off their horses and ran into the camp to put out the fire. As the saying goes, there is strength in numbers, and this is true. Nearly 100,000 people joined the fire-fighting team, and the raging fire was immediately contained.
kill……! ah……! Long Ba and others suddenly heard fierce killing sounds and screams coming from behind, and they were all frightened. They quickly turned their heads and looked around, only to see the light of torches flashing randomly in the field between Yanmen Pass and Yanmen Pass. They were far away. I couldn't see clearly, I just felt the light of the torches flickering there, as if there were countless people fighting in a melee.
Long Ba immediately realized that something was wrong, and immediately turned his horse's head and shouted: "The king has been attacked, let's go to the rescue!" Dangjie led tens of thousands of warriors and ran towards that direction. But not far after running out, the rumble of horse hooves could be heard from one side. Long Ba turned his head and looked around. It was already late at night. Although there were stars and moon, he couldn't see clearly at all. He only felt like countless figures rushing towards him, but he couldn't see how many people there were and which party they were from. Not sure. Long Ba felt that these cavalry had arrived suddenly and strangely. They were probably the enemy. He immediately did not dare to be careless and quickly ordered the entire army to stop, change direction and prepare to fight.
Tens of thousands of warriors reined in their horses and turned around. Long Ba was worried that there would be a misunderstanding in the dark night and his people would beat his own people, so he shouted loudly: "Da Liao Wandai!!" This was the command of the Khitan army tonight. If it was one of his own people, he should respond: "Conquer the world!" But the shady story The cavalry in the middle did not respond. Instead, the sound of horse hooves became more rapid, approaching quickly, making a loud rumble, like rolling thunder.
Long Ba knew that it must be the enemy, and shouted loudly: "It's the enemy, charge with me!" Tens of thousands of warriors subconsciously let out a loud shout, and rushed towards the enemy warriors charging in the night, using their riding and shooting skills. When he fired an arrow at the opponent, there was only a whooshing sound in his ears, but the arrow was not visible at all. Immediately afterwards there was a loud clanking sound from the opposite side, as if all the arrows had hit the iron plate. Almost at the same time, the Liao army's cavalry could not help but be startled when they heard the strong wind roaring. Before he could react, the Khitan army's cavalry fell on their backs! Obviously, the opponent also sent out a wave of arrows! Then there was another wave of arrows, and many Khitan warriors were shot down. All the Khitan soldiers couldn't help but feel shocked. They didn't understand how their opponents could fire arrows so quickly. Didn't Yanyun's cavalry use crossbows? How could they be faster than bows?
However, the Khitan soldiers had not finished thinking about this, and the arrows from the opposite side came one after another, as if the opponent's crossbows could be fired in succession. The Khitan soldiers suffered heavy losses and were terrified.
After a while, the two sides collided violently in the dark night. The Khitan soldiers howled and swung their scimitars to kill, only to find that the scimitar struck the opponent's armor and was immediately bounced away. The Khitan soldiers were horrified because they understood that they were not running into ordinary Yanyun cavalry, but Yanyun's formation-breaking cavalry, which was a heavy armored cavalry that was even more terrifying than the Iron Buddha.
Huyan Chijin led five thousand formation-breaking cavalry to roar and charge forward bravely. Although the tens of thousands of Khitan army cavalry had an absolute advantage in numbers, the battle situation was very unfavorable to them! The iron cavalry that broke the formation were indestructible and unstoppable, killing the Khitan army's cavalry wherever they passed, turning their bodies over and flying with blood! Although the Khitan army's cavalry tried their best to resist, they couldn't resist at all. The casualties were increasing, and the morale of the army was becoming more and more chaotic!
Finally, the Khitan army could not withstand the fierce attack of the formation-breaking cavalry, collapsed, and ran towards the military camp. At this time, the 100,000 cavalrymen who were originally helping to put out the fire had already mounted their horses. They were all surprised when they saw Long Ba retreat in defeat. It was unclear how many enemy troops there were in the dark night. I could only hear the rumble of horse hooves, and it felt like countless enemy cavalry were coming. One general was so frightened that he led his cavalry to flee first. When the others saw this, they dared not stay anywhere and fled for their lives. One hundred thousand cavalry collapsed without a fight.
Long Ba led the remaining defeated soldiers and fled to the camp. He found that all the 100,000 war cavalry and the troops remaining in the camp had fled. He was at a loss and didn't know what to do. At this time, the rumbling hoofbeats of the Yanyun Army were approaching, and a general nearby said urgently: "General, the situation is over, there is nothing we can do, let's go!" Long Ba sighed, turned his horse's head, and waved He whipped his horse and galloped towards the north, and the remaining Jin Army cavalry quickly followed.
Huyan Chijin led five thousand formation-breaking cavalry to the Khitan army camp and found that all the enemy troops had fled. He immediately ordered the army to stop the pursuit and stand by on the spot. He knew that although the formation-breaking cavalry under his command was powerful, it had limited physical strength and could not last long. It was impossible to pursue the enemy, and the enemy was also an extremely fast light cavalry. It was just a waste of energy, so it was better to stay here and wait for opportunities to support the main battlefield. fighting.
Huyan Chijin sat on horseback and looked into the distance. He saw that the sea of torches that had been gathered together on the battlefield in the distance had spread out in all directions, covering the vast land in all directions. There were scenes like twinkling stars everywhere. At the same time, the sound of surging horse hooves, killing sounds, and screams kept coming, and the whole world seemed to have turned into a Shura field! Under the radiance of the torch, countless people were running for their lives, countless people were chasing and killing madly, and in the blink of an eye, countless people died!
The brilliance of the torches that spread across the entire land gradually faded away, and the thrilling killing sounds and screams gradually fell silent. The night wind blew, and the smell of blood made people almost vomit.
Suddenly, Huyan Chijin saw many people running towards this side, his eyes widened, and for a moment he couldn't tell whether they were his own people or enemies. After a while, chaotic footsteps and chaotic voices came, and thousands of people arrived not far away. Both sides saw each other clearly, and there were waves of exclamations from those people: "No! It's Yan Yunjun!!" "Run!!" With such shouts, the crowd started to stir. He frowned and said, "Damn it, the Yanyun Army must have seen that Yanmen Pass was in danger, so they made a desperate move, gathered their elite troops, came down from Yingchou Stream or Black Dragon Pond, and raided our military camp, hoping to force us to retreat! Hum, I will Are you fooled?"
At about the same time, Xiao Lou, who was attacking Datong Prefecture, suddenly discovered that Cao Jun's Yanyun Army in Datong Prefecture had dispatched its entire army. Xiao Lou Shi hesitated for a moment, then led the whole battalion out of the camp to fight against Yan Yun's army. The two sides set up battle formations in the wilderness outside Datong Mansion, and the war was about to break out.
On the field, I saw the military formations of both sides looking like a chessboard, with flags flying and cold light shining, and the killing atmosphere was so overwhelming that people couldn't breathe. An eagle screamed in the sky, and everyone couldn't help but feel an impulse.
Woo... The horns of the Khitan army sounded loudly first, and the Jin army's forward line separated, and 10,000 iron pagodas wrapped in heavy armor and dense like iron pagodas slowly marched out of the military formation. He stopped in front of the military formation, staring here with cold eyes, the ax in his hand radiated a cold light, and the strong murderous aura was shocking!
Seeing this scene, Cao Jun raised his right hand and shouted loudly: "Shieldmen, come forward!" As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the crossbowman running down, and the shieldman ran forward with a tower shield as high as a man, put down his shield, and the shield was heavy. The ground hit the ground with a loud bang, and then the shield hand opened the bracket behind the tower shield and propped it on the ground, thus forming several rows of tightly connected shield wall defense lines in front of the military formation. The shield bearer took off the long bow from his back, pulled out the arrows and put them on the bow string, waiting for the order.
Xiao Loushi was very surprised when he saw that Yan Yun's army had formed several rows of tower shields as high as people in an instant. Then he sneered and murmured: "Just with this shield wall, we can stop our army's iron defenses." A pagoda?" Raising his right hand, the horn immediately sounded a long sound. When the Tiefutu arrayed in front heard the horn sound, they all became excited, tightened their axes in their hands, and prepared to charge! The horn sound suddenly stopped, and the drums rumbled loudly! The Jin Army's iron pagoda, which had been waiting for this moment for a long time, rushed out with a loud shout. Ten thousand iron armors broke through the ground and surged towards the Yanyun Army's defense line. Only the wolves were seen rolling, the momentum was overwhelming, it was really unstoppable! ! All the Khitan troops opened their eyes in excitement, waiting to see the opponent's battle formation being broken through by the cavalry!
Cao Jun saw the enemy Tiefutu charging up. He smiled coldly, raised his right hand and waved forward. He saw nearly ten thousand gunmen holding four-meter-long spears and moving behind the shield wall. The spear was held flat and straightened.
Xiao Loushi didn't expect this move and was surprised.
In the heart of Khitan Army Tiefutu, bloodthirsty flames were burning. Although he saw the forest of guns appearing in front, he didn't pay attention to it at all. He only had one thought in his mind, break through the enemy's formation and massacre the enemy!
In the blink of an eye, the torrent of steel composed of Iron Buddha rushed to the front of Yan Yun's army. The earth was shaking violently, and everyone felt that their bodies were shaking with the earth! The two sides were only a dozen steps apart, and they could see each other's faces. The Yanyun Army soldiers' eyes widened and their lips tightened. Tiefutu's only two exposed eyes were full of bloodthirsty red light! At this moment, everything seemed to suddenly solidify!
The screen suddenly moved. Amidst the astonishing shouts, the iron torrent of Tiefu Tu slammed into the Yanyun Army's defense line. Yanyunjun, who was holding a spear, felt a huge force coming from his hand. At the same time, There was a huge breaking sound, and many Yanyun soldiers couldn't help but flew out with this huge force; as for the Iron Buddha, didn't they have any problem at all? They saw the Iron Buddha hit the forest of guns heavily, Many people were pierced through their bodies in an instant. In the face of this kind of power, heavy armor could not provide any protection at all. Some horses were stabbed down, and knights were thrown out and smashed into the forest of guns. The scene was thrilling. Extremely hot.
The huge impact of the Iron Buddha instantly overwhelmed the spear array, and then hit the shield wall heavily. The first shield wall instantly collapsed and opened numerous gaps. Following the torrent of steel, it hit the second shield wall again. At this time, the impact power of the steel torrent was obviously weakened! He barely broke through the second shield wall, but finally stopped in front of the third shield wall!
Cao Jun had been frowning, but now his eyes showed excitement, and he shouted: "Counterattack!"
The crossbowmen who had been preparing for the attack immediately fired their arrows. At such a close distance, they saw a rain of arrows and locusts flying into the middle of the Iron Buddha Tu, and the people of the Iron Buddha Tu were seen flipping on their backs. Iron Buddha roared and waved its battle ax, urging the iron horses to move forward, hoping to break through the last heavy shield wall defense line and attack Yan Yun's army. In their minds, as long as they broke through this last line of defense, they would not be allowed to massacre. !
At this moment, the Yanyun Army took the initiative to remove the shield wall. The Tiefutu were stunned, and then they saw thousands of majestic and tall Yanyun warriors wrapped in thick iron armor, standing up with their grown-up Mo Dao to greet them. It’s also a torrent of steel! The Iron Buddhas were startled, and before they could react, Yan Yunmo's sword army rushed in suddenly. The Mo Dao army danced their swords vigorously and roared again and again. The grown Mo Dao flew up and down like a wheel of swords, cutting people at the top and beheading horses at the bottom. For a moment, all they saw was flesh and blood flying across the air and the horse flipping over! The Iron Buddhas hurriedly waved their battle axes to counterattack, but there was a clanging sound. Although the battle axes in their hands could not be said to be useless, they had little effect. The Xuantian armor worn by Mo Daojun was extremely strong. If the opponent hadn't hit the connection by chance, The weak point, the warrior under the armor will not be harmed at all! The impact speed of the Iron Buddha has been completely vented by the previous lines of defense, and it has fallen into a static melee. This is quite disadvantageous for the cavalry. The power of the cavalry lies in the powerful impact when charging. If it loses At this point, they won't even have 30% of their power left!
The Khitan Army Tiefutu was an elite division of the Liao Kingdom. They were fierce and fearless, and kept making crazy counterattacks. Although the Mo Dao Army was powerful and armed to the teeth, they also felt extremely heavy pressure. Soldiers kept falling on the bloody battlefield. On the battlefield. The scene was in chaos, and the fierce battle between the two steel armies entered a fierce stage.
The Mo Dao Army struggled forward, Mo Dao whirring in their hands, and the walls of swords continued to advance forward, killing Tie Fu Tu's corpses with blood and screams one after another. Although Tie Fu Tu was fierce, the situation at this moment seemed to be like an encounter. When it came to their natural enemies, their counterattacks had almost no effect. Instead, people kept dying under the terrifying cold light of the sword wall. However, Tiefutu was the elite of the Jin army after all. Although they were in such a disadvantageous situation, they were not afraid. Still making crazy counterattacks, one after another.
Xiao Loushi, who was watching the battle from a distance, saw that Tiefu Tu was in a disadvantageous situation, so he immediately ordered 30,000 cavalry on both wings to outflank and attack the enemy, and at the same time ordered the entire army to charge. The situation was a bit chaotic now, so it was better to attack with all out strength, maybe they could turn defeat into victory. The Liao army took action, and 30,000 war cavalry came from both wings to outflank Yan Yun's army. Yan Yun's crossbowmen immediately fired arrows like locusts, which made the Jin army's war cavalry flip over; The cavalry and archery skills fought back, and arrows fell into the Yanyun Army. Many Yanyun troops fell to the ground after being hit by arrows. The Khitan army's cavalry did not directly attack the Yanyun Army's flank defense line, but only used their cavalry and archery skills to attack the Yanyun Army's flank defense line. He galloped forward and fired arrows. The sky was full of flying arrows, and the sound of swishing was endless.
At the same time, Xiao Lou's personal commander, the main infantry force, gathered at Tiefu Tu to attack the Yanyun Army's frontal defense line. The offensive was like a tide and was magnificent. Cao Jun did not dare to neglect and quickly led the main force to greet them.
The armies of both sides engaged in a full-scale battle, and the fighting was extremely fierce. The Khitan army's cavalry and vertical troops swept across it, causing the Yanyun army to stagger around and suffered heavy casualties. The Yanyun Modao army here bravely moved forward, and killed the Khitan army in ten battles. The corpse was bleeding and flying back again and again. There were desperate figures everywhere, and blood flying everywhere. The soldiers on both sides were already going crazy, like two groups of wild beasts fighting for their lives. The two sides fought fiercely until dusk, but there was still no winner! At this moment, a situation suddenly occurred. …
After all, what happened next will be explained later.
