The heavy armored cavalry rushed out of Tongtai Pass, looked at the general flag of the Yongtai army, and ran over frantically.

The rout was no threat to the heavy cavalry.

The heavy armored cavalry rushed into the rout, which was a one-sided slaughter.

After only two rounds of charge, some of the people in the Yongtai army were killed and frightened, and they knelt on the ground and asked to surrender.

If it weren't for the fact that there were many of them and it was difficult to chase after they ran, the heavy armored cavalry would have a tendency to slaughter.

If not for anything else, but for the people who fell in front of the Tongtai Pass.

Cheng Yi saw that the general trend was gone, and hurriedly fled with some people.

After escaping less than a few hundred zhang, he was carried back to Tongtai Pass by the soldiers of the forbidden army with muskets.

When Cheng Yi fled, he resisted too fiercely, and the soldiers of the forbidden army shot him in all four limbs, beating him into a cripple.

The Yongtai army, which was stubbornly resisting, saw Chengyi being captured, and instantly lost the courage to fight, and knelt down one by one to surrender.

The battle south of Tongtai Pass came to an end.

Di Qing ordered the captives to collect their swords and pressed them into the city.

The captives were pressed into the back of the city.

The soldiers of the forbidden army who came to help all came out of the shadows.

In order to maintain a sense of mystery, in order to create pressure and panic for the Yongtai army, the reinforcement generals did not let all the soldiers of the forbidden army show their bodies after arriving at Tongtai Pass, in order to create an illusion for the Yongtai army that Cao Wei led the army to come.

When the captives saw the figures of the soldiers of the forbidden army, they were stunned.

There are only 10,000 soldiers in the forbidden army, and if they run, the soldiers of the forbidden army will not be able to stop them at all.

However.

It's too late to regret it now, their blades have been confiscated. The heavily armored cavalry stood beside them, and the soldiers of the forbidden army pointed their muskets at them one by one, and if they dared to resist, they would all be killed.

Di Qing got off the city, personally stared at the soldiers of the Tiger Character Army and resealed the gate, then pulled up Chengyi, whose limbs were abolished, and led the soldiers of the forbidden army who did not hold muskets to climb the city wall in the north.

The fighting on the northern wall was also fierce, but it was nowhere near as fierce as the southern wall.

Although he also has heavy ordnance in his hand, he is far from being as skilled as Cheng Yi.

Mi Li's self prefers to fight in the field rather than fight in battle.

Di Qing led people to the top of the city, and thousands of soldiers of the forbidden army joined, and the soldiers of the Tiger Army on the head of the city were instantly relieved.

Di Qing carried Chengyi and threw it in front of Peng Yue.

Peng Yue's eyes were red when he saw Cheng Yi.

"Who is it?"

Peng Yue gritted his teeth and asked.

Di Qing said coldly: "The Yongtai Army Festival makes righteousness!" ”

Peng Yue's eyes widened for a moment, staring at Cheng Yi and shouting resentfully: "It's you!" ”

Cheng Yi seemed to feel the killing intent, endured the pain in his limbs, and exclaimed: "I am in charge of the Liao State, I know many secrets of the Liao State, I can help you." Let me live. ”

Peng Yue roared angrily: "Let you live? Who will let those people live? That's a living Han family son, with the same blood as us. ”

Cheng Yi saw Peng Yuesha's awe-inspiring voice, and said incoherently: "I am also a son of the Han family, and so am I, I was forced." ”

"Phew!"

Peng Yue spit a mouthful of thick phlegm on Cheng Yi's face, and scolded: "You are also worthy of being called the son of the Han family?!" You're a dog thief! Hacked dog thief! ”

As Peng Yue spoke, he lifted the knife in his hand, and said with hatred: "Lao Tzu said that if he chops you alive, he will chop you alive, and Lao Tzu never loses his words!" ”

"No ......"

Cheng Yi's eyes widened in horror, and as soon as he opened his mouth to say a word, Peng Yue's knife fell on him.

"Poof!"

Peng Yue's strength in his hands is not light, he used to be in the Jingsai Army, and later joined the Tiger Army, and he has always been a heavy armored horseman.

But if you ride in heavy armor, your strength is greater than that of the average person.

Peng Yue is even better.

Peng Yue went down with a knife, and the split Chengyi bone cracked and the flesh opened.

Although it was not cut in two, it was split in the middle, leaving only some flesh and bones connected.

Blood splashed Peng Yue's face, and his stomach flowed all over the ground.

Peng Yue licked the blood on the corner of his mouth, and scolded without understanding his hatred at all: "It's cheap, you dog thief!" If it weren't for Lao Tzu's hatred of you, he would have to find someone with good skills and cut you off for a month. ”

Peng Yue finished scolding Chengyi, carried a knife, and saluted Di Qing, "Thank you to the general for fulfilling his humble wishes." ”

Di Qing also wanted to split Chengyi, but he took into account that Peng Yue also hated Chengyi, so he gave the opportunity to Peng Yue.

Di Qing waited for Peng Yue to give a salute, and then said to Peng Yue: "Cut off the head of the dog thief and throw it out." Let the Liao people see that the leader of their reinforcements is dead. ”

Peng Yue agreed, waved his knife and cut off Chengyi's head, and threw it out of the city wall with all his might.

Cheng Yi's head flew out of the city wall and smashed into the arms of a Liao soldier, knocking the Liao soldier down.

Liao Bing quickly got up, held his head and recognized it for a long time before he recognized it as Chengyi.

Immediately, he quickly held Chengyi's head, broke away from the siege team, and found Mi Liji.

Mi Liji saw Chengyi's head and scolded, "The Han people are just unreliable, Mingjin withdrew his troops." ”

Cheng Yi is dead, and his desire to count on two sides has been frustrated.

The resistance of the Song army at the head of the city was gone, and he had lost the perfect opportunity to take Tongtai Pass.

If you continue to fight, it will be in vain.

The order was quickly conveyed, and the Liao soldiers who were besieging the city slowly retreated.

Seeing this, Di Qing, Peng Yue and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

The most dangerous time of Tongtai Pass can be regarded as over.

After getting through it.

The first thing Di Qing ordered to do was not to clean up the battlefield, but to order Peng Yue to kill people.

"In the Yongtai Army, the generals above the rank of the army will be killed in one piece!"

Regarding this order given by Di Qing, Peng Yue and the others did not refuse.

The people were forced to die tragically, Chengyi was the culprit, and those generals could not escape responsibility.

If it weren't for the fact that the soldiers in the Yongtai army were all from Han'er, even if Di Qing ordered them to be exterminated, no one would care.

The generals and colonels of the Yongtai Army were dragged out of the prisoner camp one by one, pulled to the open space in the pass, and cut off one by one.

Blood flowed all over the ground, and no one had mercy.

The Yongtai soldiers in the prisoner camp made some movements, but they were quickly suppressed.

After killing all the generals and colonels in the Yongtai Army.

Di Qing ordered people to clean up the battlefield, and ordered people to count casualties and results.

After the casualties were counted, Di Qing looked at his scalp and felt a little numb.

A full 3,000 soldiers of the Tiger Character Army were killed, and almost all of the rest were wounded.

It was the first time since the formation of the Tiger Army that it had encountered such heavy casualties.

The casualties were very large, and the results were also great.

The Liao soldiers were beheaded by nearly 5,000 people.

The Yongtai army was killed by nearly 10,000 people, captured more than 20,000 people, and some people took advantage of the chaos to escape after the soldiers of the forbidden army arrived at Tongtai Pass.

They were the first group of people to escape, Di Qing had no way to send people to chase them, and the soldiers of the forbidden army had limited strength, so it was not easy to chase them.

The battle at Tongtaiguan came to a complete end.

Di Qing took the tiger army to a halt.

Nothing was said all night.

Following.

Early morning.

After Di Qing got up, he began to inspect the camp of wounded soldiers, driving the captives to strengthen the city walls, and burying the dead bodies.

I was busy until the evening.

Cao Wei led an army of 200,000 and arrived belatedly.

Cao Wei led 200,000 soldiers and horses from the time he left Baozhou, and when he arrived at Tongtai Pass, it was still 200,000.

During the period, the battle damage of Zhuozhou was recovered, and the 10,000 soldiers of the forbidden army sent out did not seem to have left.

The reason why this is the case is because in the process of Cao Wei's recovery of Zhuozhou, some people with lofty ideals, prepared their own armor, took the initiative to join the army.

Among them are green forests and grasses, and there are also ordinary farmers.

But they are all people with Han families in their hearts, without exception.

Cao Wei didn't want to accept them, but he couldn't stand their bitter begging, and there were even those who were forced to die.

In the end, they could only be accepted, and they were organized into partial divisions and marched with the army.

Cao Wei rushed to Tongtai Pass, saw the battle marks inside and outside the gate, and the tiger army that was missing a lot of stubble, patted Di Qing who came to greet him, and sighed: "Thank you for your hard work!" ”

Di Qing said solemnly: "It's not hard! ”

After Cao Wei finished speaking, Lu Yijian said to Di Qing with a straight face: "Hand over the merit book, I will check it." ”

Di Qing decisively sent someone to hand over the credit book.

After Lu Yijian looked at it carefully for a while, his face softened a lot, and he said to Di Qing: "You don't have the credit of the soldiers, and you even share a lot of credit to the soldiers, which is very good."

Although the imperial court can't give the soldiers a lot of profits like Kou Ji, the bereavement and rewards that the soldiers have will not be less.

From top to bottom, I've sent people to keep an eye on it.

Whoever dares to use the money that the soldiers exchanged for their lives, I dare to fight with him.

So you can put the soldiers at ease. ”

Di Qing handed it over to the credit book, and there was no record of the number of enemies he killed.

Some of the fallen soldiers had a lot more killed on their heads.

The most exaggerated one killed twenty-five people.

Lu Yijian naturally didn't believe it.

After a big battle, those who can grab five heads are all first-class soldiers on the battlefield.

Those who have killed more than ten enemies are basically vanguard generals in the army.

They are superb in martial arts, their armor is better than others, their horses are better than others, and it is normal to kill more ordinary enemies.

The soldiers killed more than ten enemies, but Lu Yijian had not seen much, and more than fifteen, Lu Yijian had never seen one.

Therefore, Di Qing handed over the credit book, Lu Yijian saw through it at a glance.

But he didn't blame Di Qing, and even had some appreciation for Di Qing.

Doing tricks and feet in military feats was a common thing in the Great Song Dynasty.

The most exaggerated thing that Lu Yijian has ever seen is that a general led his troops out to kill 3,000 enemies, of which more than 200 people were hung under the general's name.

If you are born with divine power, or if you are an overlord in the world, and you can achieve this kind of record, Lu Yijian has nothing to say.

But you are just an ordinary general, mixed to fifty, relying on nepotism, to climb to the position of general, killing more than 200 people?

Are you scattered with five stones?

Lu Yijian has seen a lot of things about the generals pulling heads under their names.

The generals assigned their subordinates to pull heads, but Lu Yi saw not much.

Although the head does not determine whether a general can be promoted or not.

But there are exaggerated achievements, it is easy to be remembered, and once the court wants to employ people, it is easy to think of you.

And the generals also have a good face, they blow themselves a little stronger, and they can be louder when they go out to talk to people.

Although the military supervision system of the Great Song Dynasty was very strict, it has always turned a blind eye to military merits.

Therefore, it is not uncommon for generals to take advantage of their subordinates.

Of course, the more important thing is the profit.

A small soldier, no matter how many people he kills, will not attract the attention of the imperial court, and he will not get much reward.

But a general, if he kills more people, he can attract the attention of the imperial court.

Even if the court knew that there was a trick in it, it would reward a large sum of money.

Liars have seen a lot, and suddenly met an honest and sympathetic subordinate, Lu Yijian naturally appreciated it.

Di Qing heard Lu Yijian's words, his heart jumped, and he said stubbornly: "The last general didn't mean to do this, some soldiers are the only sons in the family, they went, and the family will live ...... life in the future."

Lu Yijian didn't wait for Di Qing to finish speaking, and then interrupted him, "You don't have to explain to me, I didn't mean to blame you." As long as the combat exploits you report are in line with your actual combat skills, I don't care about the rest. ”

Di Qing solemnly saluted Lu Yijian, "Thank you Lu Gong for your kindness." ”

Cao Wei said with a smile on the side: "You Lu Yijian also have times of favoritism? ”

When Lu Yijian was inspecting the world, he killed people with rolling heads, leaving people with an iron-faced and selfless image, and after Cao Wei arrived in Baozhou, he was also meticulous in his work.

Cao Wei also thought that Lu Yijian had become an upright person.

You must know that Lu Yijian had been attached to Liu E before.

If he was really an upright person, he would not be attached to Liu E.

Lu Yijian heard Cao Wei's words, and said lightly: "For those who shed blood for my Great Song Dynasty, I, Lu Yijian, naturally have to protect one or two." If anyone disagrees, it's okay to impeach me, I don't care. ”

When Cao Wei heard this, he couldn't cry or laugh.

Who would impeach the ruling party for such a trivial matter?

If anyone does that, they're stupid.

Song Shu handed it over, and before Lu Yijian's protégé could fight back, the chief official above them would scold them first.

"Enter!"

Cao Wei gave an order, and the army entered the city.

Tongtai Pass is not large, so it cannot accommodate 200,000 soldiers and horses.

Therefore, Cao Wei only led part of the people into Guancheng, and the other part was stationed outside Guancheng.

After entering the castle and resting.

Cao Wei, Lu Yijian, Di Qing and others gathered together.

After Lu Yijian dealt with the trivial matters, he asked Cao Wei: "How is Cao Shuai going to fight next?" ”

"Hit?!"

Cao Wei smiled and said, "Don't fight!" Wait! ”

Lu Yijian was slightly stunned and asked, "Wait?" What are you waiting for? When? ”

Cao Wei smiled: "We have seized the opportunity and have already taken the land of a state. The Liao people lost a state, so they were naturally more anxious than us. According to the temperament of Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu, he absolutely can't sit still.

So when we go out of the customs now, it is very likely that we will collide with the army of Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu in the wild.

Fighting in the field with the army of the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu did us little good.

So we'll have to wait. ”

Lu Yijian said in a deep voice: "Then what if the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu can calm down? ”

Cao Wei said with a smile: "When Yang Wenguang and Li Zhaoliang take Shuo and Huan Erzhou, even if Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu can calm down, he will have to move." ”

Lu Yijian was stunned for a moment, and said in amazement: "How can you expect that Yang Wenguang and Li Zhaoliang can defeat the Liao soldiers and take Shuo and Huan Erzhou?" ”
