At this time, I saw that in the team of the royalist army in front of the Liao Emperor's palace, a special team of soldiers and horses appeared, and I saw that they were all wearing black helmets and black armor, and their faces were covered with a ghostly face, which looked particularly hideous and terrifying.

They were divided into two teams, the first team kept throwing thunderbolts into Xiao Yuanzheng's army, and when you looked closely, it was a Song army-style grenade; They soon finished dropping their bombs, and they saw the flames soaring into the sky, and the sound of explosions came and went, causing great damage to the rebels.

At this time, the rebels led by Xiao Yuanzheng were shocked, and they had ghosts in their hearts, and at this time they thought that the heavens were angry at their rebellion, so they sent down the divine thunder and heavenly fire, punished and strangled them; The formation of the rebels suddenly broke up and became disorganized, and they fled in a panic all over the mountains, during which there was a serious stampede;

At this time, the second team actually held muskets and shot at the rebels, and the scene crackled with gunfire, and the generals in front of the rebels suddenly fell to the ground like lightning strikes.

If Yang Wenguang and Meng Ming saw the situation of the grenade exploding and the musket firing at the same time, they would have been shocked, and they would have learned that Da Liao had also mastered the technology and process of making grenades and muskets.

But these grenades and muskets were actually smuggled through the border of the Great Song Dynasty, and Da Liao wanted to imitate them, but after their craftsmen disassembled them, they found that they could not be imitated at all, and the after-loading excitation system could not be made at all;

However, according to its style, a great master actually developed a relatively primitive arquebus, but although the barrel was made, it was thick and heavy, easy to explode, and the firing range was short, which was not as good as ordinary bows and arrows.

To make a long story short, turn the picture back to the camp of the Liao Emperor again:

At this time, Xiao Yuanzheng, who was at the front, had been scattered by the chaotic army, and he killed dozens of deserters in succession, but to no avail;

He also wanted to gather the remnants of the soldiers, to do the battle of the trapped beasts, to do the last dying struggle, at this moment, suddenly saw a stray bullet shooting at him at a gallop, just hit his head, and immediately saw that his head was like a broken watermelon, slamming open, blood mixed with brains splashed everywhere, his body suddenly fell off the horse, and was instantly trampled into pulp by the swarming chaotic war horses.

At this time, although Yeluye was shot to the ground, the arrow was already at the end of the strong crossbow, and he was protected by the armor, but Rao was still injured by the arrow, but the arrow only entered the flesh by a little more than a centimeter, and did not endanger his life.

At this time, he was relieved after a rescue by the military doctor, he endured the pain and turned over on the horse, let people re-erect their handsome flag, and the soldiers of the royalist army suddenly boosted their morale, and began to enter the counteroffensive again, fighting to kill the enemy.

They were also frightened by the sudden roar of the explosion, and they also thought that the heavens were furious, so as to show their might; So my heart is also worried, and everyone looks like they don't know the end of the day.

At last they found that all these lightning and thunder were coming on the enemy's side, and that their own side was not affected, so their hearts were settled;

Some nimble generals found that these so-called divine thunder and heavenly fires were all man-made, and when they saw the black-clothed men who were attacking the rebels, one of the generals shouted in surprise: "It's the Shadow Guard, God, we don't have to worry, the traitors will definitely be exterminated." ”

Yeluye also saw this sudden positive change, and he also recognized that the emperor's "Shadow Guard" was showing his might, and his mood immediately lifted, and then he began to reorganize the army and line up, cooperating with the Shadow Guard to ruthlessly strangle the rebels.

Xiao Yuanzheng died, and the people he led were suddenly scattered like birds and beasts, and at this time, Xiao Yunjin also saw his tragic death, and was immediately terrified, and he lost his mind for a while, and his eyes rolled and fainted.

At this time, Yang Youxuan hurriedly stood up and said, "Where is Xiao Dutong's deputy?" Hurry forward to protect the good concubine and the prince's thoughtfulness. ”

At this time, a middle-aged and sturdy man stood up, and he heard him shout loudly: "Xiao Wanzhang, the deputy commander of the palace army, has come to receive orders from the privy envoy, and the last general will definitely protect the prince and the concubine, and do his best to live up to his mission." ”

Yang Youxuan was very satisfied when he heard this, and he said eagerly: "Where is General Xiao and Lord Yin Zheng, who are deployed in the palace?" ”

At this time, Xiao Pidi and Zheng Hongjie hurriedly went forward to obey the order, and listened to Yang Youxuan say: "Two adults, the situation is critical now, and now the emperor has been controlled by traitors, the most important thing at the moment is to protect Concubine Liang and the prince to Xijing, which is also the base camp of the Xiao family, so we escort Concubine Liang and the prince to go, and we will definitely protect the two of them." ”

He said to Xiao Pidi again: "General Xiao, please preside over the current military burden, and you should be ordered to be in danger; You have to hurry up and gather the generals, and then you can march in the direction of Juyong Pass, the guards of Juyong Pass are also the clansmen of Concubine Liang, so they will be able to pass safely; If we arrive in Xijing, the prince will be like "the dragon returns to the sea", and we can also make great achievements, assist the prince, and achieve the work of the dragon. ”

After hearing this, Xiao Pidi, Zheng Hongjie and a group of henchmen suddenly became emotional, swept away the haze of the fiasco, and gathered under the command of Concubine Liang and the crown prince, re-lined up, and fought and retreated in an orderly manner.

Previously, Yang Wenguang had sent scouts to spy on the movements of the Liao army within a radius of fifty miles, and they had already discovered the Liao Emperor's camp in the north of Zhuozhou, so they were like hungry wolves, biting tightly around it, carefully spying, and then reporting the information back to the military camp in a steady stream.

They also found that the Liao Emperor's palace was full of flames, shouting to kill and shake the sky, as if there was a rebellion; Four or five of them disguised themselves as Liao soldiers and sneaked into it to spy on them.

At this time, the camp of the Liao Emperor was already in chaos, and I saw that the camp was full of swords and swords, and the two teams of men and horses were killing each other, obviously there was a palace change.

One of the Song army scouts said: "Zhang Yuning, you should go back and report this important military intelligence to Division Commander Yang, and the rest of the brothers and I will continue to spy on you." ”

The scout named Zhang Yuning said: "Squad Leader Yang, it's better for you to go back, after all, you haven't rested much for several days, and if you continue like this, your body will collapse." ”

At this time, the Yang squad leader suddenly felt warm in his heart when he heard it, but he still said with a straight face: "I'm fine, obey the order, hurry back and report the military situation, and don't delay." ”

Yang Yuning also looked helpless when he heard this, he knew that his captain was a workaholic, and he took the lead and charged forward every mission; Even if he is injured, he will not get out of the line of fire, and his temperament is stubborn, and ten cows will not be able to pull back anything he decides.

He hurriedly solemnly gave a standard military salute to Captain Yang, then turned around and ran quickly, and after a while, he left the camp of the Liao Emperor, and then rushed to his own military camp on horseback, and soon disappeared into the vast night.

It took about half a candle to return to the camp, and after some inspection, he hurried towards Yang Wenguang's division headquarters.

Yang Wenguang and Meng Ming had already learned at this time that the Liao Emperor's camp was thirty miles north of Zhuozhou, and its troops were empty, with only 8,000 palace troops to escort it, and if they attacked it, they would definitely be able to attack it with one blow.
