Chapter 484: Draining the Han Army

"What? Half of the grain and grass in the camp of servant bones were burned? "Yelu Dashi"! He stood up with a thud and stared at Yeluchu, who was kneeling on the ground with a face full of disbelief.

"Yes, that team is cunning. They disguised themselves as our men and infiltrated the baggage camp and set fire to the grain and grass. The fire was so big that Wan Qisong and Yeluqi didn't have time to rescue them. Fortunately, a sudden rain fell from the sky and the fire was extinguished. Otherwise, half of the grain and grass will not be saved. Yelu Chu didn't even dare to raise his head, and said bitterly.

"Yeluchu, do you know how big this matter is?" Yelu Dashi kicked Yelu Chu, raised his scimitar and struck him down with his head covered in the face, "It's because of your stupidity that we've been busy all year in vain." Half of the grain and grass is only enough for us to survive this winter, but it is difficult to take the city of Kedun. Even if you cut it, it's not enough! Yelu Dashi scolded while beating, and it was the first time in decades that he had made such a big fuss.

Yelu Chu didn't dare to dodge, and lay on the ground with his head in his hands, and stiffly held up the violent beating of Yelu Dashi.

After fighting for a while, Yelu Dashi lost his anger a little, and sat back out of breath, "What about Yelu Qi and Wan Qisong?" ”

"Knowing that they were going to die, they went after the army with 30,000 men. Jeruzi had someone pass me a message, and he fought with the men. I just hope that the handsome can spare their families. Yelu Chu endured the pain in his body, got up and knelt in front of Yelu Dashi.

"It's a bit of a Khitan man." Hearing this answer, Yelu Dashi snorted coldly, "Tell them that they not only want to destroy that army, but also ensure the safety of our rear, and if any more army appears behind us silently, their whole family will die." ”

"Yes, I'll arrange it." Jeruchu agreed.

"This time it was fortunate that it rained heavily, otherwise our entire baggage camp would not have been able to be saved. Providence, providence! It is really rare to have such a heavy rain in winter! Yelu Dashi looked up to the sky and sighed, "We only have half of the grain and grass left, and our sons and daughters know about it, and now the morale is extremely low. In this way, Yelu Chu, you go down to spread the news, and say that God bless the Khitan, and the heavy rain from the sky has relieved us of the danger of destruction, which will definitely help to improve morale. ”

Yelu Dashi is worthy of being a famous general in a hundred battles, and he can see at a glance the biggest problem in the Khitan army. In fact, half of the grain and grass are gone

It's so serious, the key is that morale is really low. And his hand, to put it mildly, turned passive into active, subtle and abnormal.

"Dashuai is really a clever plan, borrowing strength, this method is good." Yeluchu agreed, limped down and set it up.

"Jumping beam clown, let you take advantage of it a few times, Ben Shuai wants to see what you will do in the future?" Yelu Dashi looked at Dongfang and sneered, "Cheng Xishan, let your servant army attack on all fronts, and this time you will take Kedun City no matter what." If the commander does not give an order, he is absolutely not allowed to withdraw troops! ”

Cheng Xishan didn't know why Yelu Dashi ordered an attack at this time, but seeing Yelu Dashi's angry appearance just now, he didn't dare to ask more, so he could only go down and give the order.

"Attack with all your troops!" Cheng Xishan pointed to the city of Kedun and yelled.

More than 30,000 Khitan servant army infantry lazily rushed forward. The unsuccessful assault on the city of Kedun for months had led to a terrible drop in their morale, and now they had heard that half of their rations had been lost, and they had no morale at all.

"Warlord, kill!" Yelu Dashi, who was supervising the battle behind, did not change his face at all, and he commanded coldly.

"The boss has an order, and those who slack off will be killed!" More than 1,000 overseer cavalry galloped forward, raised their scimitars and slashed at the servant infantry.

Blood and death had an immediate effect, and more than 30,000 infantry sped up, and the crowd of people was like the sea, as if trying to flood the small reef of Kedun City.

The Hengsai army on the city of Kedun immediately reacted, and countless bows and arrows flew like locusts at the Khitan infantry under the city. It immediately caused huge casualties to the Khitan infantry, but the limited casualties did not have much impact on the Khitan infantry, and in the blink of an eye, countless cloud ladders were erected around the city of Kedun. The Khitan infantry climbed up the city wall like ants along the ladder.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa......" There was a sound of water at the head of the city, and hundreds of basins of hot water poured down, making the Khitan infantry ghosts cry wolf howls, thousands of people were scalded to death and burned, and there was a smell of meat in the air.

At the same time, the ladders were all knocked down, and the Khitan infantry on top were also killed and injured, and the Khitan offensive was easily resolved.

For a quarter of an hour, the Khitan infantry did not storm the city walls.

In half an hour, the Khitan finally killed the city wall, but was soon killed again.

An hour later, the Khitan infantry was exhausted, and the offensive looked much weaker.

"Dashuai, you can't attack anymore, the brothers have injured more than 10,000 people, and if you continue to fight, it will be gone." Looking at the huge casualties in front of him, Cheng Xishan ran to Yelu Dashi, knelt down and pleaded.

Yelu Dashi didn't even look at him, "Yelu Chu, supervise the battle here." Troops must not be withdrawn before dark! With that, he turned around and walked towards the camp.

Yelu Chu didn't know why Yelu Dashi would make such a decision, and the discerning people knew at a glance that it was impossible for the infantry of the servant army to capture the city of Kedun, and at this time, insisting on urging them to attack the city was completely sending them to death.

Yelu Chu rode his horse and caught up with Yelu Dashi, "Dashuai, it's not suitable to attack the city again at this time, right?" If this continues, these more than 30,000 people will be lost. ”

"It's stupid, now that we're so short of food and grass, it's a scourge to keep them sooner or later. Originally, Ben Shuai planned to let them attack Kedun City for the last time, and it became the best, and it didn't matter if it didn't work, because Ben Shuai's main purpose was to consume them. I didn't expect them to be so useless. Yelu Dashi glanced at Yelu Chu and explained in a cold voice.

Hearing that Yelu Dashi was fighting this idea, Yelu Chu felt a chill in his heart, and cold sweat flowed on his body in the winter. He didn't expect Yelu Dashi to be so vicious, ignoring more than 30,000 lives. He didn't dare to say more, so he went back to supervise the battle without saying a word.

In fact, Yelu Dashi was also a little distressed in his heart, and the 30,000 Han army was also a big force, so he gave it up, and it was indeed a big loss. But in the face of the Khitans' existential threats, he must make a choice.

"Someone, inform Yelucai on the other side of Yinshan, and ask him to exterminate the Han army in Yinshan as soon as possible, there are a lot of materials there, which is exactly what we need. In addition, except for the 50,000 men left behind in the camp, all the others went out to plunder, leaving no grain or cattle for the Uighurs. ”

After receiving the order of Yelu Dashi, the 70,000 Khitan army rushed out of the camp with cheers and rushed in all directions. They went in different directions, but their purpose was the same, which was to storm the Uighur camps, burn and loot. In just a few days, countless Uighur settlements were slaughtered, and nearly 500,000 Uighurs were killed, which was no less than a mass genocide.
