Chapter 148: Beijin withdraws troops
This 10,000-strong team is the elite of Beijin, so it took a lot of effort for the steel-armored cavalry to tear this opening, and the steel-armored cavalry also paid a great price for this, and more than a dozen steel-armored cavalry died on the way to charge.
Wanyan Zongjun watched his proud army being torn apart by Tang Jun so easily, madness, holding a war hammer, rushing left and right, even if he was injured, he didn't stop, Beijin Bing saw that the commander was so brave, and suddenly came to morale, and almost beat the Tang army back, at this time, Xue Ren stood in the distance, aimed at Wanyan Zongjun with an arrow, and then shot an arrow, Xue Ren is not only a commander, but also a marksman, and has always been an arrow.
This arrow was impartial, and it happened to hit Wanyan Zongjun's right arm, Wanyan Zongjun fell off his horse at once, and Xue Ren took the opportunity to shout: "Wanyan Zongjun is dead, surrender and don't kill." ”
Immediately afterwards, all the Tang troops also shouted: "Surrender and don't kill, surrender and don't kill." ”
Many Beijin soldiers did not know the truth, and when they looked back, they did not see the commander, and they put down their weapons in frustration.
At this time, Wanyan Zongjun had just been rescued by his own soldiers, and seeing that the general trend had gone, he looked up to the sky and sighed, and fled with the remaining less than 20,000 remnants.
In this battle, Tang Jun 12,000 people fought against 50,000 people in Beijin, beheaded more than 18,000 people, forced more than 10,000 people, and the Tang army also suffered heavy losses, nearly 4,000 soldiers were killed, more than 2,000 soldiers were seriously injured, and even the most elite steel-armored cavalry could not be moved, and it was also disabled.
The sunset is bloody, after the war, Xue Ren stands alone on the high slope, every soldier who passes here will give a military salute to Xue Ren, Xue Ren will nod to everyone, looking at the battlefield full of corpses, Xue Ren not only chanted a poem of the Son of Heaven: "Poor and uncertain riverside bones, like a person in a spring boudoir dream." ”
At this moment, Wei Yan came over with a wine gourd and said: "If one day I can be like you, I will definitely learn from you, stand on a high place and watch the sunset, and then say a few words of sour poetry, that feeling is beautiful to think about." ”
"Haha, then you'll have to wait, boy." Xue Ren laughed.
Wei Yan handed a pot of wine to Wei Yan and said, "Wait, it won't be too long." ”
Xue Ren poured a sip into his mouth, and then let out a long breath and said, "Ah, what a strong wine, where did it come from?" ”
"Stolen from the medic." Wei Yan said obscenely.
Xue Ren pursed his lips and said, "Is there anything else?" That's not enough. ”
Wei Yan immediately snatched the wine back and said with a smile: "If you want to drink it yourself, you can steal it, and Lao Tzu will have so little left." ”
Xue Ren turned around and scolded with a smile: "Stingy ghost." After speaking, he led his war horse and left, not long after Xue Ren left, he only heard Wei Yan's shout from behind: "Alas, I heard that you are going to marry Gao Shuai's daughter when you go back this time, Wei Yan is here to congratulate you in advance." ”
Xue Ren was stunned, then smiled and waved his hand back, which was considered to be a response to Wei Yan.
Wei Yan pursed his lips and said disdainfully: "Hmph, what kind of handsome......"
Wanyan Zongjun felt that he had no face to see Wanyan Zongbi, so he took his 20,000 remnants of his army and went straight to North Phnom Penh Prefecture, but only sent a few people to Wanyan Zongbi to deliver the letter.
At this time, under the mouth of Xifeng, Wanyan Zongbi had been confronting Wei Wuji for half a month, and both sides were waiting for news from Taiping Valley, so there were not many battles.
On this day, Tang Jun on the opposite side suddenly heard a shocking cheer, and Wanyan Zongbi woke up from his sleep, got up and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
The soldier who was waiting hurriedly replied: "Lord Wang, the slave will go to investigate now." ”
Soon the soldiers led Su Ji over, and when Su Ji saw Yan Zongbi's pale face and cold eyes, he understood that the man in front of him had probably guessed it.
As Su Ji expected, Wanyan Zongbi asked straight to the point: "Military Division, is Zongjun defeated?" ”
Su Ji smiled bitterly: "The prince is wise, General Wanyan lost 30,000 soldiers, and now he has returned to China." ”
"Hmph, bastard thing, 50,000 against 5,000, he was defeated so badly, it's really a shame for this king, why didn't he die?" Wan Yan Zongbi scolded angrily.
Su Ji hurriedly comforted: "Lord Wang, it's not five thousand, it's fifteen thousand, we never expected that Wei Wuji would dare to send Xue Ren to support Taiping Valley when his troops were insufficient." ”
"Haha, don't care how many people there are, anyway, this time our Dajin has lost again, and it is estimated that we will have to cut the money and land to meet the requirements of the Tang Emperor, alas, this king, the regent is really a failure, if the first emperor is here, he will definitely scold this king." Wanyan Zongbi said with interest.
Su Ji frowned and said: "Lord, don't be discouraged at this time, although in this battle, our army lost 50,000 soldiers, but the main force is still there, and the Tang Emperor does not dare to unscrupulously occupy our Beijin, and as far as the minister knows, the situation in the Tang Kingdom is not very good, the Tang Emperor has succeeded to the throne for two years, and he has been fighting continuously for two years, and he also needs time to recuperate, and this is my Dajin's opportunity." ”
Wanyan Zongbi nodded with satisfaction when he heard this: "What the military advisor said is extremely true, so what should we do now?" ”
"Lord Wang, now we have to quickly withdraw our troops, if there is any mistake in these 120,000 troops, then we will really be finished." Su Ji immediately replied.
Wanyan Zongbi sighed and said: "This king is unwilling, as for the withdrawal of the army, I will bother the military division to arrange it." ”
"The minister obeys the order, I don't know what other orders the prince has?"
Wanyan Zongbi stood up suddenly, then straightened his waist and looked at Xifengkou on the opposite side and said leisurely: "Send someone to tell Wei Wuji and Gao Zhe that the humiliation they gave to this king, this king will pay back ten times." ”
"No." Su Ji immediately agreed.
The news of the withdrawal of the Beijin people was soon learned by the Tang army, and all the generals were a little fluttering because of this big victory, so after hearing the news of the withdrawal of the Beijin army, they all stood up and asked for orders to pursue the Beijin people.
Wei Wuji waved his hand and said: "Okay, needless to say, this time our strategy is to hold Hangai Mountain, now that the Beijin people have withdrawn, our task is half completed, at this time, we must not make any extraneous branches, don't forget that the Northern Liao people have not yet arrived." ”
Yi Chuan said with a smile: "Dashuai, the Northern Liao people are not enough to worry about, it is estimated that after the Northern Liao people heard the news of the withdrawal of the Northern Jin people, they will also go back now." ”
Wei Wuji shook his head and said: "You generals don't know, Your Majesty also gave a task when he came, that is, this battle will hit the Northern Liao people as hard as possible, and now that we still have the strength to fight, of course, it is better to complete Your Majesty's holy decree." ”
"Your Majesty's target this time turned out to be the Northern Liao? Why? Yi Chuan asked puzzled.
Wei Wuji smiled and said: "Your Majesty has taken a fancy to the Hetao Plain of Northern Liao, the Hetao Plain is a piece of fertile land, which can be cultivated and grazing, and it is a pity to stay in the hands of the Northern Liao people, so this time the Northern Liao people have been hit hard, and we will have a lot less trouble attacking the Hetao in the coming year." ”
"The last general will be dull, and he will complete the task of His Majesty and the marshal." Only then did the generals understand, and immediately knelt down on one knee and said.
