But it was said that Cao Cao and others were sitting on the mountain, watching the Jin and Liao armies fight. Unexpectedly, the Liao army was outnumbered and defeated by the Jin soldiers. It was immediately divided into pieces. The largest one of them came straight towards the hill where Cao Cao was, watching what he meant. , probably to occupy the terrain in order to reorganize the army and fight.
With this fighting spirit, Cao Cao was willing to cheer for them, but there was no room for others to sleep soundly beside the couch, let alone the small hill here?
Cao Cao can indeed accommodate this group of Liao troops, but I am afraid that the Liao army cannot tolerate Cao Cao's hundreds of people.
Therefore, Cao Cao had no choice but to pay for it. In this way, he wanted to have a head-on confrontation with the Liao army - it seemed that there were more than a hundred people against three thousand people, but there was a real disparity, but Cao Cao was not panicked.
These soldiers and horses are newly defeated. How much vigor can be left with the golden soldiers behind? As long as he has a slight setback, it will be difficult for him to continue.
Cao Cao was sitting on the hillock, watching the Liao soldiers rushing towards him like a tide, and couldn't help but mutter: "Although this group of Liao soldiers are not as good at fighting as the Jin soldiers, they are indeed extraordinary. I don't know which army of Liao soldiers they are, but they will fight with them in the future." Fighting against each other should not be underestimated!”
Just as he was talking, the enemy's vanguard had arrived. Halfway up the mountain, six people, Shi Wengong, Hua Rong, Luan Tingyu, Sun Li, Jie Zhen, and Jie Bao, were sitting on their horses, with their weapons hung with winning hooks and Ruyi rings. Stay, bow and arrow, and just watch the Liao army shoot.
It goes without saying that Huarong Divine Arrow, Shi Wengong, Luan Tingyu, and Sun Li are all proficient with bows and horses, and have extraordinary shooting skills. There are also two, Jie Zhen and Jie Bao, who usually hunt through the forest, and they are even better at eating with bows and arrows.
Therefore, although there were only six people, the arrows shot out like rain, and all the shots hit the target. In an instant, dozens of Liao troops were shot down.
The Liao army was shocked, and their speed suddenly dropped. Then someone in the team shouted: "You dare to show off your bows and arrows in front of a certain Han Chang. Don't you have ears and have never heard of the name 'shooting into iron'?" "
Before he finished speaking, a flying horse rushed out. It was not the other one, but the white-armored young man who used the three-pointed two-edged sword earlier. At this moment, he had hung up the sword, held an iron bow in his hand, and fired an arrow. Jie Bao flashed, But he just barely got out of the way of his throat and was hit in the left shoulder with an arrow.
It turns out that this guy's arrow technique is very powerful and the bow is strong. Everything he shoots will hit the iron, so he got the nickname "shooting into the iron". Although Jie Bao's muscles and bones were solid, they were not made of steel after all. The arrow shot straight through his body and flew out with a trace of flesh and blood. Jie Bao screamed in pain and fell off his horse.
Seeing that her younger brother was injured, Xie Zhen was furious. She used all her strength and shot an arrow. Han Chang laughed wildly and said, "How dare you show off with even the smallest of means!" He stretched out his hand, lightly caught Xie Zhen's arrow, and placed it on it. On his own bow, where the string sounded, the arrow was as straight as a shooting star chasing the moon, heading towards Jie Zhen's face door.
This arrow was three points faster than the previous one that shot Jie Bao. Jie Zhen was shocked and said: I didn't expect that such shooting skills existed in the world! He couldn't hide for a moment, and was about to close his eyes and wait for death, when he suddenly heard the sound of wind, and an arrow flew out from the slant stab, hitting the sharp edge of the incoming arrow. The two arrow clusters were shattered, and they both fell to the ground.
Han Chang was shocked. He was famous for his archery skills. The arrows he shot were extremely fast and heavy. He never expected that someone would arrive first and shoot down the arrow he had already shot. He hurriedly looked at it and saw that he was a heroic figure. The shining silver-armored general shouted angrily: "Look, you are also a Han Chinese, and you actually acted as a helper to a tiger and injured my brother with a bow and arrow. Today I will teach you what a divine arrow is!"
After saying that, he shot an arrow at Han Chang. Han Chang saw it and secretly exclaimed: "What a fast arrow!" But not to be outdone, he swept his bow and swept away the dust of Huarong's arrow. He had already taken out a feather in his right hand. Arrows, but when they heard the sound of the strings, they shot towards Hua Rong like a volley of beads.
Hua Rong sneered and said: "It's just a chain of arrows, who can you scare?" He reached out and grabbed a handful of arrows, flexed his power, and used the same method of chain of arrows.
You must know that Hua Rong usually doesn't talk much and gives people a sense of stability and reliability. But after all, he is also a young general. Doesn't he have the passion for victory in his heart?
He boasted of his unparalleled archery skills and his superb marksmanship. However, due to the difficulty in getting through, he had been relegated to a subordinate position for many years, serving as a mere deputy magistrate of Qingfeng Village. He had nothing to do all day long and suffered from the evil spirit of Liu Gao, the Zhengzhi Village at that time. Who can I talk to when I feel depressed?
Later, he went to Liangshan with Song Gongming, but Song Gongming was unlucky. When "Wu Mengde" came out of the blue, he was timid at every turn, and even Hua Rong had no face. With such a good ability, wouldn't he feel depressed?
Later, as Cao Cao became more powerful and had more and more powerful generals, Hua Rong gradually became less and less capable. Hua Rong didn't say anything, but he often tossed and turned at night, just wishing he had no place to show his talents. Until Cao Cao came to the Northern Kingdom this time, his name was called. At that moment, although his excitement was not shown on his face, his heart was full of joy, and he had long been interested in becoming famous in foreign lands.
At this moment, the enemy was outnumbered, but the enemy general was so good at shooting. Hua Rong was filled with enthusiasm, and he suddenly burst out. This round of arrows seemed to have divine help, and his talent and hard work over the years were fully demonstrated. He continued for nine consecutive years. The arrows, all the arrows hit the tip of the opponent's arrow. Sparks splashed everywhere, and the two men's arrows fell in pairs. Have you ever seen such an arrow fight up and down the mountain? Everyone was dumbfounded.
Let's talk about Han Chang. The nine arrows were shot out in one go, but they were all blocked by the opponent. He was frightened and angry. He wanted to touch the arrow again with his backhand. Suddenly, a cold light flashed in front of his eyes. He couldn't help but be shocked: With this nine-shot arrow in my hand, I've never seen another person do it in my life. It's incredible that this guy can go against me. How come he still has arrows?
Quickly dodging, Hua Rong's tenth arrow almost missed the tip of his nose and flew away, killing a Liao soldier behind him.
Han Chang had just dodged an arrow and was feeling proud when he suddenly heard his father shouting: "My son, hide quickly!" He was shocked in his heart: Ah! Does he still have it?
Just when I thought about this, I felt a pain in my left shoulder, and then it seemed like someone was trying to push him with his palm, and he immediately somersaulted and fell off the horse - the arrow in the arrow was the same as when he shot Jie Bao.
Hua Rong shot out eleven arrows that were shocking to the world. His arms were sore and his fingers were numb. He was even more unbearable than usual after shooting dozens of arrows. However, his heart was so happy that he raised his hand with all his strength, pointed at Han Chang and laughed: "This one Arrow avenges my brother! Junior, can you recognize General Shenjian today?"
At this time, a Liao general in his forties rushed out, wielding a three-pointed two-edged sword, to protect Han Chang. He looked at Hua Rong in awe and said, "This kind of archery skill is unparalleled in the world. I would like to ask for my name." !”
Hua Rong said proudly: "It's easy to say, Hua Rong, who is called 'Little Li Guang' by people in the world, is just me!"
The Liao general nodded and sighed: "What a little Li Guang! Even if Li Guang is resurrected, it will be nothing more than this."
He looked up the mountain and said, "Are you going to stop me from climbing the mountain?"
Cao Cao heard this from the post and responded with a smile: "This place is small and cannot accommodate a large army."
General Liao gritted his teeth and said: "We can only fight with a few archers. No matter how good their archery skills are, how many arrows can they shoot? I still have thousands of troops, how can you stop me?"
Cao Cao said: "The Jurchens are right behind them. You really have thousands of troops. Why don't you go and see them again!"
General Liao was furious: "How dare Shu Zian underestimate me!" He waved his hand and shouted: "Kill him!"
Hua Rong's arm strength was not restored for a while, Shi Wengong, Luan Tingyu, and Sun Li fired arrows. The Liao general waved his three-pointed sword and blocked it with all his strength. Seeing the army coming, the three of them shot and retreated. Hua Rong held Er Jie's horse. , Jie Zhen carried Jie Bao and retreated to the hill first.
Cao Cao said: "Don't panic, everyone, act according to your plan!"
Then they saw Lin Chong and Sun An roaring and charging forward. The Liao general saw that the two men were as powerful as tigers, so he knew better and waved his three-pointed sword to fight. Sun An took it with his sword, but Lin Chong rushed straight to Liao. In the army, where the hand was raised, countless spear shadows emerged from the eight-foot-long snake spear, stabbing more than ten people off their horses in an instant.
The Liao general was shocked. He knew that such a tiger general could not be allowed to rush into the formation wantonly. If he tried to block it, Sun An's two swords would be like a violent storm. How could he have the energy to take care of others? I couldn't help but secretly hate myself: If my son was not injured, each of my father and son would be able to block him, while the other sergeants could rush forward.
In the midst of agitation, Shi Wengong and Xu Guanzhong each wielded their swords and killed them straight down. A halberd and a spear suddenly appeared in two alleys of flesh and blood.
On the post, Luan Tingyu and Sun Li also put away their bows and arrows. Luan Tingyu smiled and said: "Junior brother, today you and I will kill the enemy side by side!"
Sun Lidao: "We are about to see what our senior brother is doing now!"
Two horses and two spears rushed down again. These were two big insects that were difficult to block. Sun Li killed them smoothly and beat them with his iron whip. The Liao soldiers complained endlessly.
The Liao general became more and more frightened as he fought, and a thought suddenly came to his mind: "He charged in two by two, and each of them is a rare tiger general. Could it be that these more than a hundred people are all so skilled?"
In fact, the Liao soldiers could not even think about this idea. This is the beauty of Cao Cao's plan: if they kill them all, it seems that there are many people, but how can such a huge pressure be created?
Two tiger generals came down, two more tiger generals came, and two more tiger generals came... After all, this group of Liao soldiers was newly defeated. Even though they were good at fighting, how many times could this trembling string in their hearts withstand vibrations?
At this time, Fan Rui screamed: "I am running with my brother, so I am happy today! Hahaha, the inexhaustible Liao dog, the devil incarnation is coming!"
Chanting a mantra, the sky was darkened instantly, sand and rocks were flying, and he and Zhou Tong roared down. The appearance of these two people was particularly extraordinary - one was tall and broad-armed, and danced a square-shaped halberd with a sound like a huge thunder; The whole body is surrounded by black energy. The sword in his left hand and the meteor hammer in his right hand appear and disappear. In terms of aura alone, none of the previous three pairs can compare!
By this time, eight giant insects were charging rampantly, and the Liao army's position had become loose. Cao Cao's eyes lit up and he shouted: "Brother Hua Rong, are you okay?"
Hua Rong gritted his teeth and said, "No problem!"
According to the plan, the fifth pair was Cao Cao and Hua Rong charging into the battle. However, Hua Rong's arms were weak when he launched a flurry of arrows, which was unexpected. Cao Cao saw that he was holding on, and frowned. He was about to change people, but suddenly heard One person shouted: "Wu Jiedu killed enemies for the country, how could he be without me, the husband of the Huyan family?"
Cao Cao turned to look and laughed: "Okay! Commander Hu Yan, after this battle, you will be my brother Wu Zhi!"
Hu Yanqing's face was full of excitement and he nodded repeatedly. Cao Cao waved his sword and charged out immediately. Hu Yanqing followed closely behind with his gun drawn and screamed strangely again and again.
However, Cao Cao did not rush into the enemy formation like his previous brothers. When he saw that the Liao general was undefeated under Sun An, he suddenly galloped towards him, holding the sword high in his hand, and slashed across his face, cutting off two sharp points of the three-pointed two-edged sword. , the Liao general was stunned for a moment. Sun An struck back with his sword and chopped off the horse's head. The Liao general rolled off his horse and was captured by Sun An.
Sun An burst out laughing, holding up the Liao general's rather burly body with one hand, and shouted: "If you don't surrender, I'll kill him first!"
Han Chong, who was hiding in the crowd, suddenly became flustered and shouted: "Don't hurt my father! We, I, are willing to surrender!"
Although there were many Liao soldiers, they were already weakened by the killing of these heroes. After hearing this, they all abandoned their weapons and fell to their knees.
Ruan Xiaoqi was furious and slashed the ground with all his strength with the knife in his hand: "The next wave is coming to me, Xiaoqi, why did it fall at this time?"
At this time, Jin soldiers surrounded them - about a thousand people, and the rest divided up to chase and kill the other fleeing Liao soldiers.
The leading general clapped his hands and praised: "Awesome, awesome! He subdued thousands of Liao dogs with only a dozen people. He is a rare hero!"
Cao Cao returned his sword to its sheath, led his horse forward, clasped his fists in a neither humble nor overbearing manner, and said with a smile: "They lost to you before, so they have no fighting spirit. It's just an advantage. It's not a big deal."
Xu Guanzhong hurriedly stepped forward and translated Cao Cao's words.
After hearing this, the golden general grinned widely and said: "You are a very humble person. If others have such a record, they will be blown away. You are not bad. You have the qualifications of a general. What is your name and where did you come from?" Come?"
Cao Cao immediately reported his name and origin, and the Jin general nodded and said: "It turns out that the Emperor of the Song Dynasty also knows our reputation. My name is Wanyan Lou, and I am currently in the position of Meng'an. Because our Xianzhou Road is all under the control of Oru The ancient corruption was demoted to conspiracy by Emperor Aguda, so now in Liaodong, I have the final say."
Cao Cao was startled, looked at the opponent up and down, and praised: "As a high-ranking official of a party, you personally lead the troops to lure the enemy. This is the real hero!"
This general was the sword wielder among the small group of Jurchens who pretended to run away earlier. Cao Cao had seen that he was skilled in swordsmanship before, but he never expected that he was Meng'an and the highest official in dozens of cities in this area. long.
Wanyanlou said with a smile: "Our Emperor Aguda went to fight in person, so what do I mean? The country has just been established, and the foundation has been established. We, the leaders, set an example. Only by following the example and working together can we completely defeat the Liao Dynasty." country."
Xu Guanzhong translated it. Cao Cao heard that although his words were simple, they made a lot of sense, and he couldn't help but feel sorry for him.
At this time, Jin soldiers came to tie up the Han family and his son. Wanyan Lou pointed at the two of them and said with a smile: "Wu Jiedu, do you know who they are?"
Cao Cao shook his head: "I only know it is the Liao army."
Wanyan Lou smiled and said: "They are a very capable troop in the Liao army, called the Resentful Army."
Cao Cao shook his head and said that he had never heard of this name. Wanyan Lou smiled and told the origin of this army horse with great interest——
It turns out that although the Liao Kingdom was a foreign state, it had been established for more than a hundred years. When it comes to Guo Zuo, it was several decades longer than the Song Dynasty.
Although Khitans are considered noble in other countries, there are people from all ethnic groups among the people. For more than a hundred years, many people who are not of Khitan blood have been put to great use.
Among them, Han people are the most common - these Han people born in the Liao Kingdom were called "Han'er" in Song and Liao Dynasties.
The emperors of the Liao dynasties all used the policy of "ruling according to the customs" to govern the country. It was really a country using two systems: the national system governed the Khitan, and the Han system governed the Haner. The national system was simple, without losing the old nomadic style. The Han system was complex and mostly followed the old style after the Tang Dynasty.
He even divided the officials into northern and southern officials. The southern officials adopted the imperial examination system and were selected by examination, while the northern officials adopted the secular selection system. They did not impose the customs and clothes of the Han people. As time went by, many Han children began to feel attached to the Liao Kingdom. Feeling coming.
Among them, Zhang Lin, a native of Shenzhou, is one of them.
This man had great ambitions at a young age. He later participated in the imperial examinations of the Liao State and had a smooth official career. He became the deputy envoy to the Privy Council during the reign of Daozong of the Liao Dynasty. Not long after Emperor Tianzuo came to the throne, he was elected as the prime minister of the South Academy, which was also the Han Prime Minister of the Liao Dynasty.
Later, when Agu attacked the northern border of Longyin, the famous Khitan generals were defeated one after another. First, Xiao Tabuye was defeated in Ningjiang Prefecture, then Xiao Fengxian was defeated in Chuhedian, and then the army of protecting Budagang was defeated. The Liao Kingdom became powerful. After the decline, Bohai native Gao Yongchang took advantage of the situation and killed Xiao Baoxian, who was left in Liao Dynasty in Tokyo. He occupied Liaoyang Mansion and proclaimed himself emperor. He restored the Bohai Kingdom. Emperor Tianzuo was devastated and ordered Han Prime Minister Zhang Lin to recruit new troops to attack him.
Zhang Lin worked hard and immediately recruited hundreds of thousands of Han and Bohai people who had escaped from the northern border. She personally directed the attack on Gao Yongchang and won repeated victories. Gao Yongchang saw something was wrong and asked the Jin Kingdom for help. The Jin Kingdom general Wanyan Oru He sent his troops to fight and defeated Zhang Lin in one battle.
Gao Yongchang was also in trouble. Emperor Aguda of the Jin Dynasty ordered him to remove his imperial title. When the man refused, Wanyan Oru was about to capture and behead him, and the fifty-four prefectures of Liao and Tokyo were returned to the Jin Dynasty.
Zhang Lin led the remnant army back to Nanjing of the Liao Kingdom, that is, Youzhou. Yelu Chun, who stayed in Nanjing, seized his military power and reorganized it, leaving only 28,000 strong men who dared to fight, divided into eight battalions, saying: Yiying, Houyiying, Qianjinying, Houjinying, Qianying, Xianying, Qianxiandaying, and Yanzhouying, each with a total of 3,500 people, were named the Resentful Army.
He also selected eight warriors from the army, Guo Yaoshi, Dong Xiuo, Luo Qinghan, Zhang Linghui, Liu Shunren, Zhen Wuchen, Han Qinghe, and Han Chang, as commanders, and divided them into eight battalions.
These soldiers of the Resentful Army originally had their own homes, but they were all displaced due to the rebellions of Aguda and Gao Yongchang. Therefore, they deeply hated the Kingdom of Jin, and they were named Resentment, which means this.
In the seventh year of Tianqing, that is, the seventh year of Zhenghe in the Song Dynasty (1117), Yelv Chun wanted to recapture Liaodong and sent his troops to the east. Emperor Jin sent 20,000 soldiers from Lou Shi and Bo Luhuo to join forces with Xianzhou Road to attack Orulugu. The two sides fought and talked, and fought fiercely until winter. Due to lack of winter clothing and food, the resentful army mutinied. Yelv Chun sent the capital commander Xiao Qian to recruit troops. Although the mutiny subsided, the morale of the army was lost. The Jin soldiers captured Xianzhou, and the Liao army retreated. Qian, Qian, and Qian were defeated. Yi, Hao, Hui, Cheng, Sichuan, Hui and other prefectures all surrendered.
Yelu Chun retreated to Youzhou, leaving a resentful army to guard the Liaohe River, "waiting for an opportunity to regain his homeland."
According to what Wanyan Lou said, what they defeated today was Qianjin Camp and Houjin Camp in the Resentful Army. Their commanders, Han Qinghe and Han Chang, were only brave generals in the Resentful Army inferior to Guo Yaoshi.
As the saying goes: There is another mountain high, and the name of the general Shenjian is Biao. Don't envy Han Chang's shot into the iron, not as good as Li Guang's hunt for the genius.
