Volume 1 Born Out of Thin Air Chapter 43 The Great Defeat of the Liao State
A small number of Khitan heavy cavalry began to move around, and Yeluming and Xiao Zhen prepared to use the remaining 1,000 Khitan heavy cavalry to divide the chaotic battlefield and defeat the Jurchen heavy armored dead soldiers if they had the opportunity.
Yelu Muzhong and the others are gathering the rout and regrouping. At this moment, the ground began to tremble, and the sound of "rumbling" spread throughout the land, with the occasional sound of the ice cracking.
The Jurchen infantry suddenly shrank back, and the head of the brand in the formation and the head of the hundred households drove the soldiers to form three passages a hundred zhang wide. Yelu Muzhong and Xiao Zhen stared, could it be......
Heavy cavalry, the most expensive type of Jurchen three-plate axe, is one out of ten in a thousand people. The men and horses are all heavily armoured, this is all the resources that Aguta has obtained since the start of the war, and the equipment troops that have been secretly built only accept his own orders.
It is said that both Liao and Western Xia have heavy cavalry, but Liao has been abandoned for a long time. There were 3,000 heavy cavalry in total, and each cavalry was equipped with two additional horses, which were used to carry armor and change horses. There are a total of 300 squads, and a squad of 10 people.
Behind the hillside, the long-prepared 300 Jurchen heavy cavalry were divided into three parts: left, middle and right, and began to charge. In the tremor of the earth, Tiefutu ploughed out a bloody path, and everyone who stood in the way died!
The frightened Liao infantry completely collapsed and rushed frantically towards their own rear army and cavalry on both wings. The more than 20,000 Jurchen cavalry who had been shooting arrows on foot had just recovered their strength, turned on their horses, and followed Tiefutu to start charging and pursuing the routers......
After three incense sticks, the cavalry on both wings of the Liao State collapsed! After another three incense sticks, except for the elite infantry controlled by Yelu Muzhong and the cavalry in the emperor's tent, the Liao State was completely defeated.
The battlefield was chaotic, and young generals such as Wanyan Zongwang, Wanyan Zongbi, Wanyan Zongfu, and Wanyan Zonghan led the infantry phalanx to oppress the Liao rout, and constantly approached the Liao army.
Almost at the same time, Wan Yanchang and other veterans also led the cavalry, cooperating with the repeated attacks of Tiefutu, so as not to let the panicked Liao soldiers hug the united formation.
In a panic, Emperor Tianzuo finally let go of the embankment against the generals and completely handed over the command of the battlefield.
Emperor Tianzuo's panic is understandable, after all, he is a young man who is less than thirty, and he has not experienced a bloody battle, seeing this mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, it is already the blessing of his ancestors not to go crazy.
There were only 30,000 cavalry in the Liao army and 20,000 Janissaries who had no fighting spirit, and the rest of the troops were either fighting or fleeing, and seventy percent of the troops had completely lost their command......
At the critical moment, Yelu Muzhong was not afraid of taboos, and obtained the actual command of the battlefield by virtue of his high qualifications and prestige.
A good Yelu Muzhong, decisively gave up all the servant army and tribal army, as long as the servant army approached the Liao State array, he immediately shot arrows.
The Liao servant army, which fled in all directions, scurried around, further disrupting the battlefield and buying time for the gathering of the Liao's own soldiers. Now under Yelu Muzhong, except for the emperor's Chinese army, there are less than 80,000 foot cavalry left.
Strong spirit, Yelu Muzhong first gave Yelu Ming and Xiao Zhen the right to act cheaply, and he has always valued these two young people. Xiao Zhen was overjoyed, and Yeluming didn't say a word and started to act.
After closing his eyes and thinking for a few breaths, Yelu Muzhong slightly revised the dozen or so letters he had written before the war, and then instructed his family to send his sons to the elders of the royal family, the court officials, military generals from all over the country, and his old wives. Of course, Xiao Zhen and Ye Luming also have one each.
After hesitating for a moment, Yelumu again ordered the loyal leader of the guard to immediately send his family to Datong, the western capital, thousands of miles away.
"Do your best, obey the fate of heaven, just in case." Jerumu reopened his eyes, his gaze sharpened again, and his scarred, emaciated body stood straight. The wind is blowing on the battlefield, and the wind and snow are rolling up......
Aguta once again felt the heritage of a century-old country, and most of the Liao army had already fled, and there were still many generals who would not retreat.
The Iron Float toppled the horses that stood in his way and trampled them to pieces, but the horses were exhausted.
The Jurchen heavy armored dead soldiers and ordinary armored soldiers gathered together and led the tribal army to attack the Liao Central Army, but they were stubbornly resisted by the Khitan elite armored soldiers.
The Jurchen cavalry and the Liao cavalry had a maximum exchange ratio of one to ten, but a few Liao generals were gradually gathering their troops with their superb cavalry attainments, wandering the flanks, and preparing to counterattack at any time.
The most prominent ones are Yeluming and Xiao Zhen, who took the personal guard as the core to gather the Liao cavalry, flickering left and right, and attacking together.
"If it goes on like this, my Jurchen will fight for both defeats at most." Abegmai came to Aguta's side and was very worried.
"It's already collapsed, why are they still fighting, shouldn't this be..."Wan Yanhan was also very frightened, very pessimistic about the fate of the Jurchen, and Ah Guda didn't even look at him.
The Jurchen high-level still doesn't understand a truth, when a nation reaches the time of life and death, if there are no moths to the fire, then the nation really has no hope.
The middle road has not been able to defeat the Chinese army of the Liao State for a long time, and the Iron Floating Massacre, which acts as a hammer to break the army, has reached its limit, and several Liao generals are re-arranged. Both sides are nearing their limits, and the sun is beginning to set in the west.
Aguda looked up at the sky, prayed, and made up his mind. "Life and death, honor and disgrace, fight here. At this point, the charge is to fall down and stop. The god of Changbai Mountain blesses, the Jurchen is invincible! ”
Putting on his iron helmet, Ah Guda ignored the obstruction of the generals around him, picked up the steel knife, and rushed to the Liao Central Army on foot......
Hei Lige was attacking the Great Liao Central Army, covered in blood, and his physical strength was at its limit. It may be that Yelu Muzhong's warlord team was too fierce, and the remaining Khitan soldiers of the Liao State desperately guarded the Chinese army, and the victory fell to the side of the Liao State again.
There are so many people in Liao, they can't cut them all! If this continues, once the Tiefutu stops, the Liao State can divide a large number of cavalry and attack the Jurchen infantry phalanx in front and back, and then it will be a fiasco!
Heilig was thinking about how to save all of them after the Jurchen defeat, when he heard the earth-shattering cheers behind him.
When Ah Gu raised his army, only more than 1,000 warriors followed, and there were about 900 left. These Akuta's pro-soldiers are generally three-layer armor, and more than a dozen people are a squad, holding heavy weapons and rushing to... Emperor Tianzuo!
The Jurchen spiritual leader, the founder of the Meng'an Mok system, Aguta, took the lead, as if adding a pot of fire oil to the furnace that was about to be extinguished, and instantly ignited the fighting spirit of the Jurchen coalition army that was about to be extinguished.
The Jurchen coalition army phalanx, which was only more than 10,000 people left, no longer divided into arms, no longer had archery, and everyone picked up a variety of melee weapons and began to charge.
The arrow is not blocked, the sword is not hidden, blood for blood, life for life. In the battlefield where severed limbs flew sideways and enemies were intertwined, Aguta suddenly heard someone shouting: "Emperor Tianzuo has fled, Emperor Tianzuo has fled!" ”
Emperor Tianzuo did flee with the Chinese army whose combat strength was doubtful, and the sky collapsed! You can't stop a groundhog that wants to burrow into a hole, just like you can't stop an ostrich that sticks its head in the dirt.
Looking at the fleeing Emperor of Liao, Yelu Muzhong's step formation, which was finally stabilized, collapsed again.
Ah Guda looked at Heilig, who was shouting just now, and nodded to him in appreciation, and Heilig kowtowed very exaggeratedly in thanks. Heilig knew that this voice would definitely pay off handsomely, and his heart blossomed.
Indeed, after Aguda ascended the throne, as a meritorious general of the subordinate tribe, Heilig was regarded as a typical reward to encourage the future.

Beginner class, intermediate class, advanced class. This is the Mongolian education system that Li Xiang is determined to establish in Mingyue Village after careful consideration. It lasts for three years, mainly including subjects such as pinyin, literacy and arithmetic, as well as the enlightenment knowledge of history, geography and physics and chemistry.
The primary class mainly completes the complete pinyin education and preliminary addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, so that children can learn to read pinyin, in addition to teaching children to respect their parents.
The Intermediate class introduces the history and geography of China to the Pinyin literacy class, begins to establish a sense of national identity, and teaches some basic mathematical applications.
The advanced class requires proficiency in reading and writing in pinyin, and can write more than 500 Chinese characters, and teach some introductory geometry. Scientific enlightenment such as physics, chemistry and biology is also the focus, and in the last few months, hundreds of schools of thought were introduced, in addition to the various systems of the village.
As for Li Xiang's mastery of "advanced" knowledge in junior high school and high school, Mengxue has no time to teach, and he has not sorted it out. I had to hand over some simple things to a few proud protégés first, and then talk about systematic education later.
