Sun Tu never thought of himself as a fair and upright gentleman, especially when he was on the battlefield, he only sought victory, regardless of any means, and never tired of deceit.

This peace negotiation and cooperation with Chang Shengjun is such a thing, he has never really wanted to cooperate with him and join forces with him, and he has fought against the Liao army together. Even many of the Great Song army Sun Tu may not be completely at ease, let alone this Liao rebel army composed of northern Han and Bohai people. He is quite clear about the truth that the hearts of those who are not of my race must be different.

So don't look at Sun Tu's righteous and awe-inspiring performance before, without any reservations, but in fact, behind the scenes, he has made a lot of preparations. For example, he sent people to the south several times to contact the Shandong army, on the surface, it seemed that he was urging them to go north to support Zhuozhou as soon as possible, but in fact, he was making relevant arrangements and arrangements, so that this real descendant army would quietly go north, and watch this fierce offensive and defensive battle near Zhuozhou, and then wait for his orders to act.

All this, whether it is the Liao army or the Changsheng army, is all kept in the dark. Especially the latter, because Sun Tu had selflessly shared the key to guerrilla tactics, which should be regarded as a treasure by any general, so that they had almost no doubts about Sun Tu. Even if he had different intentions, he complained that the Song army was not strong enough, but he never thought that he had already been used by Sun Tu to calculate, and even the garrison at the south gate had been stolen and replaced, leaving only a few generals to cover it up.

The only shortcoming is that Sun Tu himself risked his life and is still in Zhuozhou City. But it is precisely because he, the main general, is in Zhuozhou that he can grasp the changes in the battle situation here at the first time and issue contingency orders in time. The multi-day layout adventure can finally bear fruit today, and it will come true.

Seeing the Liao army retreating, Sun Tu naturally couldn't let them go to join the main force in the city so easily, so he immediately issued a military order: "The whole army is pursuing, mainly to kill the enemy's living forces, if you can kill Xiao Gan, you should be the first merit!" ”

As soon as the order was given, the ambushes on both sides of the street were slaughtered one after another, and the thousands of Shandong troops who had been lying in ambush here for a long time were like beasts that had been hungry for several days before finally finding their prey, killing them fiercely, without the slightest cowardice that the Song army should have. As they rushed out, they also threw out all the arrows in their hands that had not yet been fired, and the thunderbolts that had not yet been thrown.

In the sound of arrows breaking through the air and the roar of thunderbolts, the Liao army even fell on their backs, screaming and overturning. They were already at a disadvantage in terms of troops, and they were suddenly attacked by a sneak attack, and they were completely unable to form an effective enemy formation, so they could only rely on their survival instinct to constantly retreat to the rear, and they didn't even have the ability to resist. can only be chased and killed by the enemy, and use his own lives to fight for a chance to escape.

At this time, the battle on the streets of Nanmen had completely turned into a one-sided massacre, and the Liao army, which was once known for its fierceness and good warfare, behaved like every Song army they had pursued and killed in the past, with great embarrassment and heavy casualties. Every step of the escape is paved with blood and corpses, as long as it is the Liao army that is left behind, it may be directly killed by the Shandong army at any time, even if there are kneeling and surrendering, they are not spared, and they are kicked over and cut off their heads by the soldiers who are chasing after them.

Xiao Gan, who was desperately beating his horse and running away, only felt that his heart was dripping blood, and he felt extremely trance-like. It all gave him the illusion that he was in a nightmare, because this was a scene he couldn't believe no matter what, the elite army under his command would be defeated so badly under the Song army, and the casualties would be so huge. But every time he looked back, he could see that the enemy was getting closer, and this sense of urgency and the constant screams behind him also reminded him that all this was true, and that he was indeed facing a crushing defeat.

Seeing that the long street was rushing away, and he was about to reach the middle of the city, Xiao Gan was a little relieved. After all, now the rest of Zhuozhou has long been controlled by their own soldiers and horses, and there are tens of thousands of elite soldiers of the Liao State in the city.

Just as he rushed to the middle of the city with great anticipation, and shouted urgently for people to fire arrows again to gather the surrounding soldiers and horses, a red light suddenly swept through the sky outside the city, and then the whining trumpets and rumbling war drums sounded from all directions at the same time. Immediately, there was a terrifying shout of killing, which was actually approaching from outside the four gates of the city, like the tide of the sea rushing, and the mountain wind was howling, unstoppable......

"This is ......" At this moment, Xiao Gan was completely stunned. With his years of combat experience, just from the tsunami-like killing sound of this mountain, it can be deduced that there are countless soldiers and horses galloping in all directions, and the constant trembling of the ground also proves that this is by no means a bluff, but that there are indeed at least tens of thousands of soldiers and horses running for power and storming.

If he can climb on a high place and look in all directions of the city at this time, he can see the military situation on all sides of Zhuozhou more clearly and intuitively - the four-way army is encircling the city with all its might, and at this moment it is only two or three miles away from the city wall, and it can almost enter Zhuozhou in a short moment. And just from the light and hasty points emitted by the torches lit by that team, it can be calculated that there are nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses in one place, that is, twice the number of Liao troops in the city at this moment.

Although the outcome of a war may not be determined by the strength of the two sides, the momentum that comes from this kind of rush is enough to suppress the Liao army in the city. After all, the current Liao army has just experienced days of hard fighting, and it is already a tired soldier at the end of the crossbow. And these 100,000 Shandong troops have been hiding outside, gathering momentum and generating vitality, plus this is a calculated and unintentional sneak attack, from the very beginning, the Liao army has fallen into an absolute disadvantage.

When the 100,000 army came from all sides, the Liao army guarding near the city gate immediately panicked. Some people hurriedly ordered the door to be closed, while others rushed in a hurry, trying to share the information of this emergency army with their own commander. Then they saw the fire to the south and heard the sound of killing. In an instant, the fighting spirit of the Liao army fell to the lowest point, and the enemy had actually broken the southern city gate, so even if they defended the other three gates, it was useless! But how is this good?

This Liao army has always been based on Xiao Gan's horse and has a strong cohesion and combat effectiveness. But at this moment, they also exposed their biggest weakness, that is, when the boss didn't know where he was, the generals were a little at a loss when they encountered changes, whether they should fight to the death with the enemy in Zhuozhou City, or escape from the city before the enemy arrived?

But what happened on the battlefield did not allow them to hesitate more, the city gate had not yet been closed, and the vanguard of the Shandong army had already screamed and killed. First of all, the breaking bullets and thunderbolts opened the way, and then there were dense bursts of arrows, which immediately scattered and fled the Liao army that still wanted to guard the city gate and city walls, and almost couldn't even parry the slightest strength.

Originally, the Liao army was not good at defending the palace, which was also the key reason why they repeatedly lost their cities and lost their territory when they encountered the rising Jin army in the north. Even their own city can't be defended, let alone Zhuozhou, a half-broken city that is no longer under their control and has an open gate. As a result, with only one charge, thousands of people in the vanguard have successively captured the city gates on three sides, and drove straight in, pressing the Liao army to constantly retreat inward, and gaining enough time for the follow-up main force to enter the city.

When the Shandong army on three sides entered the city at the same time, the battle here at the south gate was completely over. Under the leadership of Wu Song and others, the few soldiers and horses left here have slaughtered into the city gate cave like a whirlwind, and wiped out all the rebels of the victorious army such as Yu Wanyao who fled before. They had already broken their courage and were not able to resist a few times at all, and they were either killed or captured. Subsequently, the south gate was also completely opened, and after the drawbridge fell, a large number of Shandong troops were able to pass smoothly, and merged with the city's Pao Ze Division, and then shouted together, and rolled straight towards the city.

The four gates have been lost, and the enemy army continues to fight, so that the Liao army can only continue to retreat into the city, making the last resistance. In this increasingly unfavorable situation, the only good news was that Xiao Gan, who had fled from the south, had finally joined the main army.

His luck was finally good, and he relied on his subordinates to desperately obstruct the queen of the palace, and won him a chance to get out. But even so, Xiao Gan no longer has the demeanor and momentum he had before, not only did his armor fall off, but he also had many injuries on his body, and there were several short arrows stuck in his back, and the blood flowed continuously, which was really miserable and embarrassing to the extreme. If it weren't for the constant shouting of the accompanying soldiers, I am afraid that even his subordinate generals would not recognize him as the king of Xi.

It was only at this time that the team led by Sun Tu himself to pursue finally stopped, retreated and joined his own backups, and then pressed forward steadily, so that the Liao army could only continue to retreat to the middle of the city, and suffered casualties all the way again, and the corpses were all over the street.

The ups and downs of this night were too fast and sudden, and even now, the Liao army still couldn't accept the fact that they were defeated, and they hadn't really been able to settle down. Many soldiers retreated, looked at their boss, and kept muttering: "Lord, how can you be so ......?"

yes, how so...... Obviously, a big victory has been achieved, and it is clear that Zhuozhou has been obtained by himself, how could such earth-shaking changes have happened in just a few hours? Looking at the Great Liao generals who were constantly retreating with him, Xiao Gan didn't know what to say at all, let alone what else he could do next.

The casualties this time were too great, and the defeat was too bad. The enemy army came prepared again, surrounded on all sides, and now it has become a situation of catching turtles in the urn and closing the door and beating dogs, and it has become a luxury to break through. He found that he had really fallen from heaven to hell and was in a desperate situation.
