Chapter 397: Wolf Soldiers

The Liao Dynasty lost Youzhou, and the Liao army changed its strategy, and nearly 100,000 Liao troops went straight to the boundary of Yanmen Pass Shuozhou. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Liao soldiers and horses went straight from Fengshengzhou to Yunzhou, all the way to Shuozhou, and the speed was unexpected.

Yanmen Pass was guarded by Yang Chong, but Yang Chong's troops were less than 10,000, and most of them were infantry, and the difference in strength between the two sides was extremely large, so Yang Chong could only take a stubborn strategy.

When the offensive and defensive battle began, His Royal Highness the King of Qin immediately made a decision, urgently sent a message to Cao Yubin, and ordered Cao Yubin to lead the 80,000 soldiers and horses in his hands to the rescue immediately.

Yang Chong held on for a day, knowing that it was too late to wait for reinforcements to arrive, and that holding on would make the Liao soldiers arrogant, thus forcing the Liao soldiers to forcibly attack the city and enter the pass.

In the face of a strong enemy, Yang Chong resolutely decided to adopt the deep detour tactic used by His Royal Highness the King of Qin, using infantry to feign resistance and gradually retreat to lure the enemy deeper.

Yang Chongqin led only 2,000 elite cavalry, took a small road and went around to the rear of the Liao army north of Yanmen Pass, and ordered all the cavalry to tie branches to the tail of the war horse and drag it behind him. When running like this, a large amount of smoke and dust will be rolled up, so that the opponent cannot distinguish between the virtual and the real, and then Yang Zhong led the cavalry to charge.

His Royal Highness the King of Qin once led 5,000 cavalry to defeat the enemy army in this way, forcing the Khitan to retreat.

And the Liao soldiers never imagined that the Song army would repeat their old tricks.

And because the Liao army did not encounter decent resistance along the way, it was extremely arrogant and rash to advance against the enemy. He didn't expect Yang Chong to dare to resist with only 2,000 people, let alone that Yang Chong could take the initiative to attack, so he was defenseless.

The Song army launched a charge from behind the Liao army, dragging branches behind the war horses to roll up large clouds of dust, and for a while the smoke and dust were billowing and the war horses neighed.

Yang Chong, as a defender, took the lead, and led the iron cavalry to rush into the Liao army's formation, slashing and killing indiscriminately.

The Liao soldiers were defenseless, and they couldn't figure out how many Song troops were coming behind, so they were terrified for a while, and their formations were in chaos, and they broke up one after another, and the soldiers and horses retreated to Yunzhou.

Yang Chong's courage and resolute temperament determined the victory of this battle.

In the second year of Yongxi, the Song army won all the battles, from the capture of Youzhou to Shuozhou, and then to Shunzhou and Jizhou, His Royal Highness the King of Qin forced Shunzhou and Jizhou to surrender without a single soldier, and the northern expedition was undoubtedly the biggest victory in the past ten years.

For a while, the Song army seemed to have found the feeling that the soldiers and horses were brave and pacified when the first emperor was there, and they were extremely brave.

His Royal Highness the King of Qin, known as the Eight Sages King, was embraced by the whole army, and the name of the god of war spread to the capital.

The first emperor founded the country and fought horses all his life, and His Royal Highness King Qin obviously held the demeanor of the first emperor, brave and strategic, and wise in the world.

To the north of Shunzhou, there is a Danzhou under Yanshan, as long as Danzhou is captured, Gubeikou is captured, and the Khitan cavalry is defended against the Central Plains, which is a very easy position for our army to defend.

Danzhou belongs to the Yanshan Mountains, surrounded by mountains on three sides in the northeast and west, with undulating peaks and peaks, and the majestic ancient Great Wall stretches on the lofty mountains.

And taking advantage of the victory to attack Danzhou, His Royal Highness King Qin really did it.

Only this time it was clearly not so smooth.

The Liao soldiers reinforced, and the Khitan Khan drove the expedition in person, and the men and horses he brought were royal cavalry, each with one enemy and one hundred, and they were extremely brave.

After a major battle between the two armies at the junction of the Chaohe River and the White River, it was difficult to distinguish the winner from the defeat, and the two sides were at a stalemate.

After that, the Liao army sent envoys to negotiate peace again, and the Khitan was willing to hire the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun and ask to marry the county lord of Qingrong.

However, the Khitan had already broken his promise, and His Royal Highness the King of Qin refused.

At the same time as the Khitan proposed peace, a team of Khitan wolf soldiers quietly attacked Youzhou at night. The wolf soldiers were extremely fierce, General Guo was invincible, and the wolf howled one after another in the middle of the night, which frightened the Song soldiers even more.

Youzhou has only been captured for a few days, and now the fierce wolf soldiers are attacking again, like the dead wood that is about to fall.

When the people of Youzhou City were panicked, General Guo's subordinates proposed to withdraw from Youzhou City.

was stopped by a bright voice.

"Retirees, cowards!"

"Where did the hairy boy come from?" General Guo scolded.

"Under Rongqing!" the voice was clear and the eyes were firm.

For a while, Rong Qing appeared in everyone's field of vision again.

"You're the one Rong Qing who researched the new firearms?" asked the lieutenant next to him.

Rong Qing's development of a new firearm has already spread in the army, and Rong Qing credits all the credit to Wu Dahu, who is a backup army, and the whole army knows about it.

"Exactly. ”

"His Royal Highness King Qin's soldiers and horses are still in Shunzhou, and it will take at least tomorrow morning to rush to the rescue, and Youzhou City will not last until dawn at all, we are trapped in Youzhou at this time, and there is no powerful firearm for a long time, and at this time the gate of Youzhou City is crumbling, and when the wolf soldiers attack, all of us will be swallowed overnight. The adjutant said.

"It's just a bunch of beasts that can't speak, is it difficult to deal with?" Rong Qing asked rhetorically.

"Pretentious at a young age!" General Guo really couldn't see where she was outstanding.

"To say that wolves are most afraid of fire, but we have tried, and those wolves are not afraid at all, and they are desperate to move forward. And now it is night, and the soldiers have difficulty seeing, and they want to shoot arrows and throw stones, but they can't aim at all. The lieutenant spoke.

"You little baby, let's talk about it, how to attack the enemy?"

"Oh no, no, no good! General!" the soldier outside the door hurried in, "The brothers can't stand it anymore!"

"General, let's get out. The adjutant said nervously.

Yan Hanyu really admired Zhao Xian, after capturing Youzhou, he asked the people of Youzhou to be urgently transferred and escorted to Zhuozhou for resettlement, and now only the Song army is stationed in Youzhou City.

In the event of such a near-siege, the people will not be hurt.

"I may have a way to get rid of the wolf soldiers. "Rong Qing's sentence can retreat wolf soldiers, like the sound of heaven.

"General Guo can lead a team of men and horses to withdraw first, because after the wolf soldiers, I can't confirm whether there will be Khitan soldiers and horses behind. If General Guo believes it, the general can leave some of his soldiers and horses behind and act according to my orders. ”

"General, let's withdraw. ”

The deputy general's heart trembled tightly, and a wolf howl seemed to cry to his heart, too terrifying.

Looking at the young and fearless immature eyes, General Guo knew that it was too unfavorable for him to retreat, and he had nothing to fear when he lived to this age, so he said in a thick voice, "Don't withdraw!" Rong Qing, you go to the city with Ben General, Ben Jiang wants to see how you repel the wolf soldiers?"

Youzhou was attacked by wolf soldiers, Yan Hanyu had heard about it, even if he hadn't heard of it, but the wolf howl came from afar, and it could also let people know the danger.

Yan Hanyu ran all the way to the city wall, only to know that the wolf soldier attack was even more terrifying than she imagined.

The flickering faint green light seemed to be passing by one Yin soldier after another.

The wolves who are most afraid of fire are not afraid of fire, and they are clearly a group of ghosts without a sense of fear.

The sound of the Qiang flute, which seems to be private, rings very regularly, intermittently, and rises and falls.

Yan Hanyu suddenly thought of something, so he hurriedly went to find General Guo.

These wolves are clearly controlled by sound, and her solution is to sound the wolf soldiers. (To be continued.) )
