Chapter 139: Hammer Hair

The annual Spring Festival is coming as scheduled, and the people, whether rich or poor, whether rich or poor, whether rich or low, are happily preparing for the New Year. However, the army in the battle did not have the energy to celebrate the New Year, and General Ling Kun didn't even know that the New Year had passed for more than ten days.

On this day, the Song army attacked the Flying Fox Pass again.

In the long and narrow Flying Fox Valley, the Khitan soldiers formed layers of large formations and waited for them.

The two armies confronted each other at the Feihuyu Pass, less than 30 paces apart, breathing and smelling each other, and their faces were clear.

The Liao army's large array is dominated by shields and spears, with shields in front and spears in the back.

If the big array is not broken, the Song army will not be able to attack Feihuyu. Even if the big array is broken, there are at least dozens of the same big array waiting for the hundred miles of Flying Fox Valley behind. It can be said that the Flying Fox Valley is as solid as gold, and the gods can't beat it.

At this point, Jerod was confident.

The Song army's attacking team stopped at the mountain pass, and the five bed crossbows were pushed down in front, and Ling Kun, Zhao Mingyue and others rode on horses, watching the soldiers operate. Whether or not you can break the Liao army's large array depends on these five bed crossbows.

Yelu slanted with the Khitan soldiers, looked forward through the layers of shields, and saw the Song army rotating around the five grinding discs, making a creaking sound.

They don't know why, what is this? These children in the Song Dynasty always like to tinker with these novelties, and the previous artillery has made them frightened.

The grinding disc finally stopped, and the creaking sound came to an abrupt end, and Song Bing inserted five large spears into the bed crossbow, and then began to clange with hammers.

The Khitan soldiers were dumbfounded again, what are they doing here? They have been fighting all year round, and they have never seen such a battle, do they want to make weapons from iron on the spot?

When he was stunned, the bed crossbow had already been activated. Hearing a whooshing scream, five spears shot out, shattering the shield in front of it in an instant.

The remaining momentum of the spear did not decrease slightly, and the soldiers who passed behind them continued to move backwards, and the Khitan soldiers along the line were skewered into mutton skewers and flew backwards, and there was chaos among the Liao soldiers in an instant.

Five spears flew by, which was equivalent to opening five gaps in the Liao army's large array and killing five bloody paths. Seeing that the time had come, Ling Kun shouted, "Kill." ”

The Song army bravely went forward and took advantage of the chaos of the Liao army to take advantage of the situation

Breaking through their first line of defense, the team advanced about thirty-four paces as a whole.

The Khitans took a breath of relief, and once again condensed a large array and built a second line of defense.

However, Song Jun's bed crossbow was once again ready, and the five hammers began to clange again. Five spears burst out of the air, and the new line of defense was once again broken through five bloody paths. The Song army took advantage of the situation and broke through the Liao army by fifty steps.

When the Liao army formed a battle again, in the face of the Song army's five creaky bed crossbows, they were all frightened with faces like earth, and their bodies were like sifting chaff.

This is a feeling more terrible than death, in the face of the powerful power of the bed crossbow, you have no power to resist, once he is targeted, you can only be pierced by it and even skewered with your comrades.

The Khitan soldiers stared at the five deadly spears of the Song army with bloodshot eyes, and their knees involuntarily bent slightly, in the shape of a horse. They wanted to use their skills and luck to avoid it.

The hammers of the Song army began to clank again, and the moment the five spears were unhooked, the Khitan soldiers moved quickly, trying to hide in a place where the head of the gun could not be pointed.

As a result, the Liao camp was even more chaotic, and it had no ability to resist at all, and the Song army easily broke through a layer of defense.

The Liao army's commander Yelu was angry and anxious, ashamed and annoyed, but he didn't have the slightest way, his eyes were split, he commanded the soldiers to make up the big formation, and swore to resist the attack of the Song army, so that his voice was hoarse. He shouted to his side and said: "General Xiao, it seems that the Flying Fox Pass can't be held, I have made a military order to the Queen Mother, and I will definitely swear to protect the Flying Fox Mouth, I will keep my promise, and I will die in the Flying Fox Pass." But it's not a pity for me to die, the Flying Fox Pass still has to be lost, you immediately return to Youzhou, please make plans for the Queen Mother as soon as possible. ”

"General, the last general is here to defend it, you go back and make decisions with the Queen Mother." Xiao Tzu Rin hugged his fists.

Yelu slanted and smiled sadly: "What face do I have to go back, you go quickly, don't delay the military plane." ”

Xiao Tzu Rin saw that he had made up his mind, so he hugged his fists and said: "In this case, please the general must hold on, the queen mother will definitely have a good strategy to retreat from the enemy." ”

Jerod waved his hand and said, "Let's go." ”

Seeing Xiao Tzu Rin getting on his horse and leaving, Yelu gritted his teeth again and began to organize resistance. However, the combat effectiveness of the Liao army is getting weaker and weaker, the gap is getting bigger and bigger, and the distance is getting bigger each time it retreats

The longer it comes. If it goes on like this, Baili Flying Fox Valley will not need to return tomorrow and all of them will be lost.

Xiao Tart Rin galloped all the way, rushed into the Youzhou Palace on a fast horse, jumped off the horse in front of the imperial tent, ran into the big tent in a few steps, and knelt on the ground with a pop: "Queen Mother, the last general came to report the news on the order of the general, the flying fox mouth is tight, I'm afraid I can't hold it, please make plans for the Queen Mother." ”

Empress Dowager Xiao was shocked and angry, slapped the table and shouted, "How can this be? The terrain of Flying Fox Pass is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, even the straw bale rice bucket will not be lost so quickly, right? What the hell is going on? ”

Xiao Tzu Rin crouched on the ground and gasped for a few breaths, and said: "Queen Mother, the general has set up thirty defense arrays on the front line of Flying Fox Valley, and generally speaking, even immortals are difficult to break through. The Song army came to attack in advance, and was defeated in the first big array. ”

"yes, that's how it should be." Empress Dowager Xiao said.

"Queen Mother, we didn't expect that the Song army would create a huge and powerful bow and crossbow, and if an arrow was shot, nothing could be stopped within thirty or fifty steps. Our great array is of no use at all in the face of such bows and crossbows. ”

"How so? Now that the weather is freezing, how can there be animal tendons available to make bows and crossbows? The privy envoy Han Degao exclaimed suspiciously.

"Looks like they're not using animal tendons, they're like steel." Xiao Tzu Rin replied.

Empress Dowager Xiao was so anxious that she got down from the chair and paced quickly, not knowing what to do.

"Queen Mother, now, I can only leave Youzhou immediately and return to Shangjing." Han Degao said.

Han Derang, who was beside the Queen Mother, objected: "No, once the Flying Fox Pass is lost, Youyun will not be protected, once Youyun is lost, the Liao State will have no danger to defend, and I will not waste my efforts if the Song army dies." ”

"Lord Han, I know this if you don't say it." Han Degao said: "But is there a way, even the queen mother and the emperor are in danger if it drags on like this." ”

Everyone is silent, return or not? Retreat is equivalent to the death of the country, and if you don't retreat, you will die faster.

Empress Dowager Xiao has always been strong and resolute, but at this moment, she was so anxious that she shed tears and asked in a trembling voice: "Zhong Aiqing, who can relieve the worries of this palace?" ”

Xiao Ran had never seen the heartbroken appearance of the aunt who loved her the most, and she felt extremely distressed, she gritted her teeth and stood up and said loudly: "Auntie, let me go, I can retreat from the enemy." ”
