Chapter 899: The Fate of the Defeat of the Coalition Army under the City of Youzhou is Sealed (Second Update)
Chapter 899
"Ladies and gentlemen, the reinforcements of General Zongshi Dao and General Zhe Keshi have arrived, and they are attacking the western camp of the Liao army outside Youzhou City, and tell the soldiers that as long as we can hold on, then the battle of Youzhou, my Great Song Dynasty will win!" When he said the last sentence, the seed master had already pulled out the war knife at his waist and roared fiercely.
"The Great Song Dynasty will win, and the Great Song Dynasty will win!" The soldiers who had been encouraged by the Seed Master pointed their weapons at the Sky Dome and let out an earth-shattering roar.
"Da Song will win?! Ha ha...... Lao Tzu told you to go to hell and howl, and ordered the front army to start the assault! When Yelu Jinping looked at the front army and was less than a hundred steps away from the Song army, he gave the order for an assault.
Soon, 10,000 forwards, encouraged by the officers, roared, roared, and beat their battle shields, and began to launch a surprise attack towards the Song army's strict battle formation.
Above the city, Xu Zhao, who had become the commander-in-chief of the Yuanyou stone thrower, closely watched the movements of those enemy troops, watching the originally tight group gradually begin to loosen up because of running, and approached the position where the red brick debris was splashed past.
Xu Zhao put down the binoculars in front of him and roared angrily. "Launch!"
With his roar, sixteen small flags were waved down in unison, and after a breath, he saw countless dense black balls like rain, suddenly rising from the city more than twenty zhang away, and then flew over the city walls and towers, towards the outside of the city.
Compared to the scene during the test firing last night, at this moment, each catapult cart is no longer loaded with five, but a full twenty-five stone bullets......
Sixteen, that is, a full 400 round cement bombs weighing five catties were thrown into the sky, and then smashed towards the heads of the Liaoxia coalition forces that were rushing forward.
Originally, he was running wildly, seeing that the distance from the Song people was only more than ten zhang, and when he could kill in a few breaths, the whimpering whistling sound above his head made all the Liaoxia Alliance soldiers who were running wildly raise their heads subconsciously.
I saw that the dense black dots in the sky were slowly getting bigger, bigger, and then smashing down.
Standing at the forefront, the Yuanyou armor soldiers who were standing with shields saw those Liaoxia Alliance soldiers who were only more than ten zhang away from them being smashed into formation by a dense and heavy stone rain, and even saw a canopy of blood mist spraying towards the sky, and there were severed limbs and stumps flying sideways.
The remnants of the cement and stone bullets that fell down continued to bounce and flew out, causing huge trauma to the new unlucky ghost.
The fall of hundreds of stone bullets directly caused the attack momentum of the Liaoxia coalition army to stagnate, and at this moment, they were less than ten zhang away from the Song people.
At this distance, it is impossible to regroup the team, because in the formation of the Song army, powerful crossbow arrows have already shot head-on......
"Give me a rush, let them rush up, beat the drums, let them continue to assault, don't give the Song people a chance!" Yelu Jinping blushed and shouted loudly.
At this time, in the urn city, there were soldiers and horses again, and this time, it was a full 5,000 cavalry. The appearance of five thousand elite cavalry made Yelu Jinping almost so angry that he was bleeding.
But at this time, the heroic elite cavalry of the Liao State had no way to retreat, or rather, at this time, they could only continue to advance, and they must not retreat, otherwise, once their morale was discharged, it would be difficult to lift up.
Yelu Jinping issued military orders again and again, and the 40,000 army rushed towards the more than 25,000 Song troops like wolves, while the cavalry of the Song army copied the middle of the Liao cavalry.
And to the west, when the infantry of the Song army was less than two miles away from the Ximen camp, the seed master Dao finally led 20,000 elite iron cavalry ready to gallop out.
However, his goal was no longer the Ximen camp that he had agreed with Zhi Keshi before, but went straight to the Beida camp.
Zhe Ke was stunned on the spot, and on the one hand, he scolded the old rascal for not being righteous, and on the other hand, he encouraged the soldiers to continue to march towards the West Battalion.
At this moment, Wang Daguan, who was standing in the west city wall, was also a little stunned at first, but after reacting, he had to secretly praise the shrewd calculation of the old driver.
The 30,000 foot soldiers of Zhe Keshi, facing the West Battalion with only more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, even if they can't attack, they can definitely drag the West Camp and the soldiers and horses from Zhumen to help.
At this time, the 20,000 elite iron cavalry of the Seed Master Dao became the most powerful and decisive armed force on the battlefield outside Youzhou City.
At this moment, the Beida Battalion has dispatched 10,000 horses to aid the East Battalion, and then another 3,000 men and horses to aid the West Battalion, and the remaining soldiers and horses are just thousands of foot soldiers, trying to resist the 20,000 elite Great Song Iron Cavalry? Hehe, unless they're both Sagittarius that is both a man and a horse.
Wang Yang took a deep breath, turned around, and looked behind him, 10,000 people equipped with paper armor, but the fighting spirit of the van army.
A month ago, Wang Yang didn't dare to do this, but now, he dared to stand here and shout. "Beat the drum to open the city, it's our turn, go out of the city and kill the enemy!!"
When the 20,000 iron cavalry of the Seed Master Dao easily broke into the Beida camp, Wang Yang led 10,000 brave Xiang soldiers to rush out of Youzhou and outflank the western camp.
The defeat of the coalition forces under the city of Youzhou is already doomed......
#####
The 80,000 Liaoxia coalition army, if it weren't for Yelu Jinping, who was an old driver who had experienced a hundred battles, was afraid that he would have been defeated long ago, but even so, he could only lead 40,000 horses and flee to the south.
If it weren't for the worries about the remaining remnants, as well as the safety of Youzhou City, and the counterattack of the Liao army that was likely to follow south, Wang Yang really wanted to lead the army to pursue it personally.
Seed Master Dao led 20,000 elite iron cavalry to pursue about ten miles of land, because Yelu Jinping has always taken the lead, leading the elite to ignore their own casualties, and blocked the pursuit of Seed Master Dao with a mountain beam, I am afraid that these 40,000 horses can escape half of it.
After determining that the other party was indeed a difficult bone to gnaw, a small number of cavalry were left to harass the opponent's back road, and 15,000 cavalry returned to the outside of Youzhou to sweep the remaining remnants of the Liaoxia coalition army.
In the end, more than 25,000 enemies were captured, more than 5,000 enemies were annihilated, and the rest fled in all directions. And the danger of the siege of Youzhou for more than a month has been temporarily lifted. In addition to the beginning, Wang Yang was most depressed that he failed to hold back Yelu Jinping and capture the Liao general alive.
Otherwise, he really wanted to prepare a whole jar of pickles, pickled radishes, and other things for Yelu Jinping, so that this guy could also taste the taste of eating this kind of thing for a month.
As soon as the siege of the besieged city was lifted, Wang Yang sent a team of people to the fruit grove in the south of Youzhou City, and asked them to pick some ripe fruits to improve people's livelihood.
Inside and outside the city, there were the cheers of the soldiers, and the city of Youzhou almost became a sea of joy, and the baggage of the captured Liaoxia coalition army naturally became a generous gift to the soldiers and the people.
At this time, Wang Yang was walking outside Youzhou City with the breeder and Zhe Keshi.
