Chapter 896

And Yelu Jinping was very troubled at the moment, as a famous general of the Liao State, after His Royal Highness the Prince was deprived of the position, he failed to become the commander, but watched Xiao Shen, who was much younger than himself, become the commander of the army.

This made him feel very unbeautiful, but Xiao Shen was also very good at being a man, at least he was very courteous to himself, but what he did next made Yelu Jinping very uncomfortable, that is, Xiao Shen decided to lead the army south.

but threw the mess to himself. Think about it, although the coalition forces left outside Youzhou City claim to be 100,000, in fact there are only 80,000 people.

However, there are still a considerable part of these 80,000 people in Mali, that is, 20,000 wounded soldiers, lying there humming and unable to fight.

This made Yelu Jinping very dissatisfied and repeatedly expressed his opposition. But in the end, he still had to accept his fate, after all, Xiao Shen was the commander of the first army.

The military order given to him by Xiao Shen was that no matter what, make good use of the 80,000 army, and not let the Song army in the city have the opportunity to go out of the city and disturb the rear of the army.

After Xiao Shen led the army to leave, Yelu Jinping thought about it for a long time and decided to take the initiative to attack, continue to maintain the offensive towards Youzhou City, and maintain a certain pressure on the defenders in the city, so that the defenders in the city would not have a chance to attack.

If Yelu Jinping's opponent is other Song army generals, or rather, the opponent is just a city defender, his move will indeed be very effective.

But the problem is that what he is facing is the old driver Wang Yang, who is appeased by the Sanzhou Economic Strategy. It is not only Youzhou that controls it, but also tens of thousands of soldiers and horses roaming in the land of Sanzhou under its remote command.

However, this elite Song army, which numbered 50,000, was now roaming obscenely outside the warning range of the defenders outside Youzhou City.

However, even though Yelu Jinping was very annoyed and cautious, he still did everything that a good general should do. Among the 20,000 wounded soldiers, in addition to about 5,000 disabled soldiers who could not move, the remaining 15,000 were distributed in the other three gates, so that the number of Liao soldiers and horses outside each city gate was 20,000.

If the whole army of the Song army concentrated on abandoning the city to attack, relying on the wall of the large camp to defend it, it should be able to support the reinforcements of the other three large armies.

It's just that, as a general, he should have commanded thousands of troops to crisscross the battlefield, but now he continues to besiege this city that seems to never see any hope of falling, which is really painful.

The collision between the Liaoxia coalition army and the Great Song Huben in the ancient city of Wuyan made almost all the eyes of the world focus here. Even the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, who was far away in Bianliang, or Yelu Hongji, the Emperor of the Liao Kingdom, who was far away in Beijing in the Liao Kingdom, was unable to sleep and eat every day......

Compared with the Liao army that took the initiative to attack, although the Song army was in a passive response, but with the ancient city of Wuyan as the support, coupled with strong morale, the Liao army with superior strength was stopped in the ancient city of Wuyan.

At this time, Han Zhongyan finally suppressed the movement of the Liao army on the Hedong Road, and with great difficulty, he dispatched 50,000 elite divisions to Linzhou, and the soldiers pointed directly at the Left Wing Divine Brave Army Division, and restrained the soldiers and horses commanded by Xiao Wuna and the troops of the Left Wing Divine Brave Army Division.

In the south, the arrival of Renduo Zongbao finally forced the Song army, which originally wanted to take advantage of the situation to take Shizhou, to retreat to Yinzhou. However, Renduo Zongbao did not have the extra troops to go south to relieve the danger of Longzhou.

At this moment, the whole battle situation has formed a stalemate similar to a calm but turbulent undercurrent, and no one knows whether it is the Liaoxia coalition army that first finds a breakthrough, or the Song army that first finds the flaw of the Liaoxia coalition army, breaking the balance of the battle situation that is oppressive and affects the hearts of all the most powerful countries on this continent.

"Master Su has been fighting with the Liaoxia coalition army for several days under the ancient city of Wuyan, although he has blocked the Liaoxia coalition army to the death, but after all, it is on the defensive, and the opponent's strength is stronger than our army, and if it continues like this, the last general will be worried about ......"

"You can't hold it for a long time, what's more, the Liao army is eager to make meritorious contributions, and the strength is stronger than our army......" Wang Yang tightened his eyebrows and slowly said this classic saying, of course, this sentence is only applicable to ordinary people, not to a strong city wall like Youzhou.

"However, Yelu Jinping outside the city is also cunning, harassing our army day and night, first, it can make it difficult for us to find out his truth and reality, and second, it makes our army tired, and it is difficult to organize enough troops to go out of the city to assault."

"So...... The only plan for today is to prepare for General Seed Master Dao and General Zhi Keshi to dispatch......" Wang Yang slapped his palm, signaled Zhu Wenwu in the hall to calm down, and said his thoughts in a deep voice.

"Isn't this too early?" The planter was a little hesitant.

"It's not early, although Master Su has blocked the Liaoxia coalition army, but our army's strength is too inferior to the opponent after all. I can't let my Great Song Dynasty's soldiers and horses lose momentum, after all, it's so easy, it took years of hard work to boost the courage and morale, but it can't just be dispersed. ”

"From tonight, the sortie exercise will be carried out as previously planned......"

"Generals, I hope you will remember that this attack is not another attack, and you must not act without authorization, otherwise, you will blame the ruthlessness of the military law of this officer."

The generals stood up with very strange expressions. They all went down to prepare, and once again after dusk, the Tanguts set off a wave of offensives, and after the battle lasted for nearly two quarters of an hour, the tired siegers finally retreated exhausted.

However, just as Yelu Jinping ordered the troops to return to the camp and was about to sleep well, he suddenly heard the sound of war drums in the direction of Youzhou City, which was supposed to be equally quiet.

In an instant, he struck a spirit, hurriedly got up, ordered his own soldiers to put on armor, and ordered the soldiers to leave the camp......

Soon, Yelu Jinping, who had finished draping, rushed to the wall, and saw that the gate of the urn city of Youzhou City, which had been closed for more than a month, had been opened, and with the sound of war drums, the Song army with torches began to line up along the city wall.

Yelu Jinping's heart couldn't help but sink, and he immediately ordered the soldiers to prepare for battle, and sent a signal for the other armies to come to help.

And at this time, Yelu Jinping suddenly heard a signal from the north and the south of his own battalion that he had encountered the enemy.

"What's going on? Are the Song people crazy? Sanmen attacked, did he really think that my 80,000 soldiers and horses in Da Liao were just paper and mud? Yelu Jinping was almost mad by Song Jun's audacity.

But at this moment, there are still teams of Song troops out of the city in Wengcheng, the number is at least more than 10,000, Yelu Jinping in addition to scolding in his heart, he needs to keep calm, send people to summon the armies to strictly guard the battalions, and not to rush to help.

Just after the Song army began to march out of the urn city, about two pillars of incense, the torches that were originally held high were almost completely extinguished in unison.

However, the voice of the Song army's victory reached the ears of the Liaoxia coalition army, making the Liaoxia coalition army more and more nervous, and Yelu Jinping shouted loudly to order the whole army to fight, waiting for the arrival of the Song army who deliberately extinguished the torches so that people could not figure out the direction or method of their attack......
