"yes." Yelu Dashi nodded and said to the generals, "It's like a tug-of-war between two people, hold on to the end, and we will win." ”

At this time, the 'attendant' presented the tea soup of the Song Dynasty to ward off the cold, Yelu Dashi raised his hand, ordered the generals, and waited for all the generals to hold the bowls, and only then did he drink it, and said with a smile: "The imperial account has been sent to the privy envoy of the Northern Yuan, so that Yelu Tiege left behind the lone army of Zhao Xingde's department, and immediately led the cavalry to copy the back road of the Song army." Calculating the distance, by tomorrow morning at the latest, the 'elite' soldiers of the North Courtyard under Brother Tie should arrive. "The Song army was full of internal contradictions, and after a few days of 'fierce' fighting, there were many casualties, and the rest were also extremely tired. Yelu Dashi estimated that as long as tens of thousands of Khitan 'elites' joined the battlefield, the battle would be over in a few hours. After defeating the main force of the Song army, it is not too late for hundreds of thousands of troops to turn back and clean up Zhao Xingde's troops.

All the generals laughed, and Urgon, the commander of the right army, stood up and knelt down and said, "Please allow Your Majesty to lead the cavalry of my headquarters to be the vanguard of the army, and fight the southern barbarians back and forth with the northern courtyard, and avenge Lord Yanshan!" Yelu Dashi looked at him approvingly and nodded in agreement. Even if he was 'friendly' with the Khitan ministers and generals, he did not hide it at all, which made Yelu Dashi extremely satisfied, and often sighed that they were also descendants of the green ox and white horse, and these Erbo people still maintained the blood 'sex' and simplicity on the grassland.

Outside the royal tent, the firelight flickered. When the clouds and rain stopped, the soldiers lit piles of bonfires and baked their clothes. For the Khitan people, who are accustomed to dryness, 'dampness' is the most unbearable thing. From time to time, there was the sound of singing accompanied by thin waist drums and bearded pipes, and it was a group of people who were making music around the campfire. A whole day of rest, no new casualties, and the atmosphere in the army was not as dignified as it had been in the past few days. Correspondingly, there was also a commotion from the Song army camp opposite, and after a few days of competition, the Song and Liao armies were like two strong men wrestling, feeling each other's state all the time, and tacitly taking some rest at the same time at certain moments.

Just more than ten miles away from the camp of the Liao State, the White Feather Cavalry had already concentrated and rested for about half an hour. After a long journey in the rain, many strong horses were also exhausted, and nearly a quarter of the cavalry fell on the road. The sergeants wiped the blades of their horses over and over again, and the camp was filled with a pre-battle atmosphere, and the sky in the distance, the light was fading, and after a long day of heavy rain, the night was approaching, and the time for the attack was getting closer and closer.

Yang Ren untied the bow bag wrapped in oilcloth, and carefully 'inserted' the Yanling arrows one by one into the quiver. Different from the quiver used by the Khitans, the Xia standard quiver is divided into grids, and there are arcs and circular depressions in each grid, so that each arrow guards its position, even when riding a horse and galloping, the arrow feathers will not shake or even jump in the quiver. The archer remembers the position of the arrow in the quiver, and with a quick grasp of it, he can take out the arrow as he wishes, and even hold several arrows between his fingers to perform a series of arrows.

The horn whimpered a few times, Yang Ren's eyebrows were slightly raised, the sergeant next to him stood up with him, the war horse snorted uneasily, everyone looked at the handsome flag not far away, and saw the military flag waving back and forth. "Get on the horse!" Yang Ren snorted, and without any extra words, more than four hundred cavalry pulled their mounts to their sides and gathered.

"General," Gao Gongmao reined in the war horse that was leaping and 'wanting' to try, and reminded, "Don't notify the people of the Song Kingdom?" ”

"The Rampage Army and the Thief Capture Army are already in place," Wu Jie looked at the sky in the distance, "Delay for a while, and it will be dark." There are constantly wandering stall horses being killed, and the Liao people will soon find out. He said coldly, "Raise the banner, if the Song army knows that we are kicking the camp and does not send troops to cooperate, we will withdraw from the battlefield and let them be destroyed by the Liao State." ”

"Obey." Gao Gongmao nodded, and made a "go" gesture to the flag officer, the horn sounded again, and a battalion of cavalry set off one after another, except for a few scouts, the team marched in columns at first, carefully avoiding particularly muddy areas, until it was not far from the Liao army, the battalions dispersed into a horizontal formation when charging the formation, and finally unloaded the excess burden for the war horses, erected the horse lance, not far away, the Liao State stopped the horse had discovered the movement here, whistled loudly, and issued a 'shooting' warning sound.

The sky was dark, the clouds were low, and it would not be a quarter of an hour before night would fall on the earth.

"Charge!" Wu Jie shouted in a low voice, and Gao Gongmao 'drawn' his portable horizontal knife and shouted loudly, "Rush into battle!" ”

After a while, the flag waved, the White Feather Army was in the center, the Rampage Army and the Capture Thief Army were the north and south wings respectively, and more than 11,000 horsemen formed a cavalry formation, overwhelmingly rushing towards the Liao army camp, the iron hooves flew over, and the muddy water splashed. Although the heavy armor was removed, the White Feather Army still put great pressure on the unprepared enemy army.

Yang Ren breathed in the strong wind blowing in his face, leaned down, and stretched out the horse lance with the sergeants, and a hundred steps ahead, the frightened faces of the Liao cavalry were clearly visible. "Kill!" Yang Ren shouted violently in the 'chest', clenched the horse lance hard, the long lance trembled slightly, but the tip of the lance always pointed at the enemy in front, a team of Khitan cavalry brandished their spears and rushed up, as if they wanted to stop the offensive of the Xia army, but such a move was tantamount to using the mantis arm as a car, Yang Ren's eyes narrowed slightly, the tip of the lance was facing upward, and it crossed the enemy's neck, and blood suddenly gushed out, and at the same time, the other two horse lances passed under the armpits of the Khitan cavalry. "Duh!" Yang Ren let out a low snort, controlled the horse with both 'legs', let the mount slightly give up a gap to the side, and the robe that he had cooperated with for a long time drove the mount to the other side to get out of the way a little, and the Khitan war horse ran out from the middle, and the Khitan cavalry was still sitting upright on the horse, and it fell down softly after a while.

The closer to the Liao army camp, the more Khitan cavalry they encountered, and the resistance of the ten-man team, the hundred-man team, and the thousand-man team were all crushed in front of the tens of thousands of iron cavalry charging array. The ground shook slightly, and the torrent of Xia cavalry rushed into the 'gate' of the camp when the Liao army closed it, and immediately divided into several shares, and then into more than a dozen shares. Rampage in the camp of the Liao State, the iron hooves of the war horses flying, rushing and trampling on the panicked crowd, some sergeants use long lances to pick away the oncoming enemy troops, and the other part of the sergeants throw long lances, bend bows and arrows, and specialize in "door" and "shooting" to kill the Liao army in the distance. Within the territory of the Xia Kingdom, Hexi, Beizhou, the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains, Hezhongdi, and Tubo are all famous horse farms in the world, the people are happy and rich, the wind of horse riding and horse racing is still better than that of Liao, there are many people who are good at riding, and the selection of cavalry sergeants is also extremely strict. The camp of the Liao army covers an extremely wide area, and the more than 10,000 'elites' rode in it to rush left and right, and the Liao army was caught off guard, although there were tens of thousands of people, but they could only rush to the wolves. Although the generals of the capitals, the commanders of ten thousand and the commanders of thousands were brave, they could only gather an army of hundreds, or even dozens or more than a dozen people in a hurry, to fight against the Xia army.

"What's going on?" Cao Di hurriedly put on his clothes, and the clogs on his feet were actually worn.

"Look at the flag, the formation, like the people of the Xia Kingdom." Staff Officer Wei Chengji handed over the clairvoyant mirror, and said solemnly with a 'pale' face. The Xijing camp has confronted the Xia State for hundreds of years, and knows a lot about its military system and habits. Wei Chengji said "like", in fact, there is already nine percent of the affirmation. Cao Di took the clairvoyant mirror and observed it with a calm face, only to see that under the Xia State Iron Cavalry, the Liao army had become a mess. When the generals in the battalion heard the movement on the opposite side, they all ordered their subordinates to wait for the battle, and they rushed to the Chinese army to obey the order. Cao Gu's face was 'pale' and 'gloomy', while Ma Qianzhong looked at Cao Di nervously, but he didn't dare to speak out for fear of disturbing the coach to watch the enemy.

"The cavalry of the Zhenguo Army has gone out, it is Zhang Xian's banner!" Gao Gongmao suddenly said, "The banner of Prime Minister Yue has also risen!" ”

Cao Di's face changed, and he put down the clairvoyant mirror, only to see that thousands of horsemen had galloped out of the Zhenguo military camp, and actually played the banner of Yue Fei. "If the heavens don't take it, but suffer the blame, that's it," Cao Di turned his face to look at the generals, smiled slightly, and said in a deep voice, "How can my Xijing camp be left behind." Pass on my generals' orders, beat drums to cheer for the soldiers, and the army went out of the camp and lined up. Don't miss the opportunity! Xiao Cai, Wei Yu, Yun Cai, and Xiao Shengjun are out of battle immediately! He exhaled a long breath, and the 'elite' cavalry accumulated by the Xijing battalion for decades poured out.

"Yes! Handsome! Ma Duzhong was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth and bowed down to receive the order.

The Xiao cavalry army quickly stopped and waited for a short time after leaving the camp array, and then he and Wei Lu, Yun Cai, Xiao Sheng and other cavalry slowly stepped forward, at this time, the cavalry of the Zhenguo Army had filled the trench with firewood bundles, and broke through the fence of the Liao army camp. After many days of confrontation, the Liao army camp was much more closely guarded in the east than in the west. Some of the soldiers of the Zhenguo Army simply jumped off their horses, holding large axes, swords, shields, bows and arrows near the breach of the breakthrough, and fought with the Liao troops who swarmed up, while other cavalry of the Zhenguo Army rushed towards the depths of the Liao camp like the Xia army. At the beginning, the battle was very 'fierce', and a group of Xi army and 'female' real soldiers tried to recapture this gap from the Zhenguo army under the command of the officer, however, after the Zhenguo army's infantry formation and more than 20,000 cavalry of the Xijing battalion came forward, the resistance of the Liao army suddenly became much weaker, and even the iron bucket cannon that had caused heavy casualties to the Song army a day earlier did not exert much power.

"What? The fort was lost? Yelu Dashi grabbed Yelu's collar and asked sharply, "What about Yan Zongbi?" ”

"No, I don't know." Jeruz knelt down and said, he bowed his head, and did not dare to move. was stared at by His Majesty's fierce gaze, and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. His Majesty's hair is scattered, his eyes are wide open, as if he 'wants' to choose someone to devour, and Sen Sen's eyes are terrifying. "The cavalry of the Xia Kingdom entered the camp, in addition to disturbing our camp everywhere, a team of men and horses went straight to the fort, and finished Yan Zongbi, a cunning dog," he forced himself to calm down, "Seeing that the situation is not good, I fled first with the 'female' real camp!" Yelujing kowtowed, and said with a bitter face, "The fort, the fort ,......, is over!" ”

After fighting with the Song army for many days, Yelu Guo understood the significance of the gains and losses of the iron barrel fort as well as Yelu Dashi. In the past few days, there has been a rumor in the camp that "shaking the mountain is easy, shaking the Yue family's army is difficult," this ballad was originally made up by the signing army, and later it was spread to the Khitan people and Xi people somehow, which greatly shook the morale of the army. The Liao army was dominated by cavalry, good at attacking but not good at defending, and without the help of iron barrels and cannons, it would not be able to restrain the infantry of the Zhenguo army, which had strict military orders. The cavalry of the Xia Army Brigade suddenly entered the battlefield, and I don't know how many people and horses there are in the follow-up, and at the moment, it seems that there is only one way to retreat.

The sound of killing outside shook the sky, but the royal tent was quiet and terrifying. More than ten generals rushed to the imperial account, and everyone looked at His Majesty, but no one dared to speak first. Everyone looked at His Majesty, waiting for him to give this simple order.
