160 The Liao's Mustache Dog Tactics

From time to time, the troops were defeated and fled back to Xiongzhou City.

At first, those who fled back were still in bright armor!

From this, it can be judged that these troops are the Heshuo army stationed far from the front line.

These pus-filled troops have become the sweets in Tong Guan's eyes, they can get the materials first, and they can escape first if they are in danger!

The family army has not yet come, and Wu Jue is a little anxious.

Zong Shu patted Wu Jue's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, the combat effectiveness of the Seed Army is so strong, it won't flee here so quickly." ”

These words made Wu Jue seriously embarrassed, and he didn't know whether Zong Shu was praising or sarcastic.

In fact, Zong Shu praised it as a kind of family army, and ironically said that it was the military system of the Great Song Dynasty.

This kind of army composition and command style is no wonder if it is undefeated.

Zong Shu was actually in a hurry, according to historical records, it was already night when the breed retreated to Xiongzhou City.

Because there are large plains near Xiongzhou City, except for a few woods, there is nothing to cover, and only under the cover of night can you quietly enter this village.

Now, Zong Shu can only waste one more day of dry food and hold it here for one more day.

In the afternoon, more and more defeated soldiers gathered in Xiongzhou City, one by one untidy, hurriedly rushed to the city, for a while, people and horses crowded together, shouting again and again.

This group of defeated soldiers should have just fought a vicious battle with the Liao, otherwise they would not be so embarrassed.

After a while, a large number of infantry came with large carts and small carts, and at first glance they saw the grain and grass and baggage of the army.

Wu Jue immediately poked his head out, because these infantry were the family army.

Zong Shu sighed helplessly: "People-oriented, people-oriented!" When people die, won't the food be fed to the dogs? ”

At this time, other armies also rushed over and clashed with the grain and grass of the planter army.

For a time, the city gate was blocked, and the grain, grass and baggage of the planters were piled up at the city gate in a mess.

Suddenly, the defeated soldiers fought as they scrambled to enter the city, and then the grain and grass of the planters joined the battle.

The lack of coordination of the Great Song Dynasty army and all kinds of problems in the war were revealed, and then there were chasing soldiers, and their own people fought first!

The fight was lively, and a few arrows suddenly shot down on the city of Xiongzhou, and Zhao Gou and Tong Guan appeared at the head of the city.

The city shouted and shouted to the soldiers to stop fighting.

The rack stopped, but a general on horseback shouted: "Push all these carts into the river!" ”

Plopping and plopping, these grain and baggage carts pushed over by the planter army were pushed into the moat.

Wu Jue didn't expect this kind of result, and almost wanted to rush out to reason with the other party.

But being pulled by Zong Shu, Wu Jue will be a famous general in the future, how can he be so impulsive?

Zong Shu said to Niu Gao: "We can't do such stupid things in the future, remember, human life is at stake, and the head is the most important." If these grain and grass trucks are put to the end and put a fire, they can also stop the Liao army, which is also of some value. ”

Niu Gao remembered that yesterday Zong Shu persuaded the planter to put the grain and grass at the end, and the soldiers withdrew to Xiongzhou City first.

In order to protect the grain, grass and baggage, the people of the planter army fought a bloody battle with the Liao army in front, but unexpectedly, the grain, grass and baggage were lost under the city of Xiongzhou!

Niu Gao looked at Zong Shu and thought, Zong Shu wouldn't have predicted that the grain and grass wagons of the family army would be lifted into the river, right?

If so, wouldn't Zong Shu have a last resort? That's simply Zhuge Liang's rebirth!

The wagons of grain and hay were thrown into Hanoi, and the men of the other troops rushed into the city with shouts.

And the soldiers looked at the river, and then at the gate of the city, and suddenly one of them took the lead and picked up the sword from the ground.

Then these logistics soldiers of the Plantation Army, under the leadership of one person, did not enter the city, but ran towards the place where the loudest noise was in the back!

Seeing this, Zong Shu couldn't help but slap the knot: "The family army, there is really a kind!" ”

One after another, small forces were defeated into the city.

Ahead, suddenly the sound of horns arose, and from a distance, there was a mark on the horizon, from thin to thick, and it was obvious that a large number of people and horses were coming.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of the horse's hooves stepping on the ground came, and people couldn't help but change their faces.

The sound of horses' hooves was getting closer and closer, and even the thirty or so horses brought by Zong Shu and his party snorted uneasily, and some wanted to neigh, but they were restricted by the mouth cage.

Before he saw the cavalry, he saw a large number of infantry rushing over the horizon in the distance, and soon fled to the front of Xiongzhou City.

And on the three sides of the infantry, a large number of cavalry appeared, and it was the cavalry of the Liao people!

Dust and smoke rose from the east, and dozens of horsemen rushed in, one of whom was holding a large flag, which was the banner of the family army.

The jujube red horse in the middle of the planter road rushed towards the city gate.

The infantry behind immediately turned around and formed a formation to face the Liao cavalry rushing forward.

When the planter arrived at the city gate, he found it closed. Zhao Gou and Tong Guan on the city wall.

The seed master Dao let open the city gate, but was ridiculed by Zhao Gou, the seed army failed in the first battle, and did not think about how to fight back, but wanted to escape back to the city.

Tong Guan said that if it is too late today, it is better for the seed army to form a formation under the city, and all the armies in the city are on the city wall to support with arrows.

Zhao Gou also added that in this way, the upper and lower levels are integrated, and the internal and external are combined, which can greatly break the Liao army.

The seed master was so angry that he scolded Tong Guan as a "eunuch", and Tong Guan was angry and turned around and went down to the city.

The gates were still shut.

The seed master immediately galloped back and shouted, "Put a big array, put a big array!" ”

There were only more than 10,000 people in the army of the seed family that had been defeated so far, and there were only a few dozen cavalry people surrounding the army of the seed master, which was basically useless.

Yang Keshi lost 5,000 cavalry on the other side of the river yesterday, and when the Chongjia army retreated, the remaining cavalry was killed by the Liao army.

Now only the infantry remains.

In front of the cavalry, the infantry wanted to escape?

At present, the method that the Seed Master Dao can take to reduce casualties is the "Great Array".

Due to its limited mobility capabilities, this kind of "large array" cannot effectively kill and injure enemy troops, but it can minimize casualties.

The "big array" can last for a long time, and if the troops in the city come out, there is even hope of turning defeat into victory.

Under the command of Adjutant General Zhao De, all the infantry immediately shrank into a huge phalanx.

The outermost platoon of this huge phalanx was holding spears, facing the cavalry of the Liao people, and they poked out one by one, so that the Liao people had no choice for a while.

It seems that last night, the planting army practiced the "big formation".

Due to the short time, after the "big array" moved a few times, the formation finally dispersed.

In addition, the Liao army adjusted its tactics, shooting arrows in front of it, and the cavalry on both flanks carried out flank attacks.

The soldiers in the first row, when they raised their guns and stabbed directly, their movements were not consistent enough, and they were seized by the Liao cavalry, and after a few people died, the second row did not make up for it, forming a gap.

A few cavalrymen burst in, cut down a few of them, and then returned to their own camp like a wind.

In this way back and forth, the Liao people scattered into small groups of cavalry, like bearded dogs on the grassland, and besieged the elephants.

The Liao people didn't want to swallow the seed army in one bite, but only took a small bite at a time, grinding it slowly, and let the behemoth bleed to death.

Due to the short time of the "big array" drill of the seed army, the loopholes are getting bigger and bigger, and the number of casualties is increasing.

Some fell on the spot, and the sergeants stepped on the corpses when they advanced and retreated, or some dodged the corpses of their comrades, causing the formation to loosen and the Liao army seized the opportunity.

After two hours of suffering, the family army could not hold on, and there were signs of collapse.

The Song army standing on the city wall hid behind the battlements, not to mention archery to support the seed army, and they didn't even dare to stick their heads out.
