Chapter 90: The Battle of Hainan Pass (12)
Another day passed. Han Derang sent 10,000 soldiers and horses to guard the official road connecting Liecheng and Tianshui City.
Most of the 20,000 horses gathered outside Tianyang City were county soldiers, and Han Derang was worried that the Song army would defeat them and rushed over to help Tianshui City, so he sent another 10,000 horses to help. The remaining 80,000 horses directly blocked the water in the siege of Tianshui City and launched a fierce battle.
Yue Fei took away 40,000 horses, leaving Xu Qing with 20,000 horses to handle Tianshui City. And Xu Qing began to actively prepare for the war a few days ago, relying on the towering walls of Tianshui City, and now that he is fighting, the defense is not very difficult.
Hainan Guan...
In Song Jun's tent, Yang Ye sat on the chair calmly, looking at the messy small flags and complex terrain on the sand table, his eyes were deep and thoughtful...
"Daddy!"
Yang Yanan was wearing silver armor and walked into the account covered in blood.
Yang Ye raised his head and glared at Yang Yanan, and said, "This is in the army!" It's called Tai Lieutenant! ”
Yang Yanan reacted at this time and immediately said, "Yes!" Captain! ”
"How's it going?" Yang Ye asked.
Yang Yanan shook his head and said, "After a night of fighting, the Liao army resisted desperately, and our army could not attack for a long time, and a total of 6,000 men and horses were lost. ”
Seeing that Yang Ye's face remained unchanged, he did not speak. Yang Yanan couldn't help but say again: "Captain! Why didn't Ye Luyan's body be placed under Xiongguan to undermine the morale of the Liao army? ”
Yang Ye glared at Yang Yanan and scolded, "Stupid! ”
Yang Yanan was puzzled, bowed his head and asked, "Please teach Taiwei!" ”
"Yesterday, the Liao army was actively preparing for war, and its morale was at its peak. Even if Ye Luyan's body is placed in front of the pass to attack the city, although it can hit the morale of the Liao army for a while, it will never let the Liao army stay in a slump for a long time! Don't forget, there is not only one general in the Hainan Guanliao camp, Yeluyan, and those adjutant generals can still boost morale, not to mention how capable they are. At that time, not only will it not be able to hit the morale of the Liao army, but it will also cause the grief and anger of the Liao soldiers and make them even more fierce. ”
After listening to Yang Ye's analysis, Yang Yanan was suddenly frightened into a cold sweat.
"Captain, what should we do now?" Yang Yanan asked.
Yang Yedao: "Count the days, Marshal Yue should have led the army to Hainan Pass." There is no movement at the moment, which can only indicate one problem! It is the Liao army stationed at Hainan Pass that is heavily guarded, and Marshal Yue is waiting for an opportunity! Therefore, at this time, we must launch a fierce attack, attract all the troops of the garrison of Hainan Pass, and create an opportunity for Marshal Yue! ”
"Now, after a night of fighting, the Liao army is exhausted. We can't give them a chance to kick! Quickly order the troops of the fourth and fifth to get ready, and replace you in half an hour! ”
"No!"
Yang Yanan answered, turned around and prepared to convey the military order.
"Wait!"
Yang Ye stopped Yang Yanan and said, "It should be about the same... After the fourth and fifth children go up later, they will press Yeluyan over! ”
After a night's time, this blow to the heart of the tired Liao army was far more effective than yesterday. Regardless of whether the generals of the Liao army finally stabilized the soldiers of the Liao army, or the morale was greatly damaged. will send more soldiers to garrison Hainan Pass,
Half an hour later...
Yang Yande and Yang Yanhui each led 5,000 men and began to launch a new round of fierce offensive...
"Kill!"
The sword and shield soldiers of the Song army carried seventy or eighty ladders and rushed up against the rain of arrows.
The deputy general Han Hao heard the sound of war drums on the city wall again, and hurriedly climbed to the top of the city. Seeing the fierce killing of the Song army under the city, Han Hao wondered, "Is the Song army crazy?" Tens of thousands of troops also want to get their hands on Hainan Pass? ”
Another lieutenant general, Qiu Min, also rushed over one after another, and happened to hear Han Hao's self-talk, and then said, "The Song army must be cheating!" ”
Han Hao turned his head to look at Qiu Min who came over, and said, "Commander Qiu, why are you here?" Fought all night yesterday and didn't go to rest? ”
Qiu Min sighed and said, "The general has not returned for a day, and the wild wolf has not been heard from so far." Now that the army is pressing, how dare I rest? ”
Yesterday, it was Han Hao who was guarding the camp, and he didn't know what was going on, but when he saw Qiu Min say this, he frowned, "Hasn't the general come back yet?" After speaking, he glanced at the Song army outside the gate, and said, "The Song army outside the city has not used any large-scale siege equipment so far, which can show that the general's surprise attack was successful." Now it should be the Song army besieging the pass, and the general can't come back! ”
Hearing this, the worry on Qiu Min's face also faded a little. They had been following Yeluyan for several years, and they knew all too well about Yeluyan and the wolf's riding skills. Even if it can't be destroyed and wants to leave, Song Jun can't stop it casually.
However, the next call of Yang Yande outside the gate made their faces change greatly!
"Shut up the thief, listen! Your general, Jereyan, has been slain! Surrender quickly! Rao Er can't wait! ”
When it was closed, Han Hao's face changed, and he immediately shouted, "Ridiculous!" The Song thieves failed to attack the city, and they used such three indiscriminate to disturb the hearts of our Da Liao army? ”
Han Hao's words made the Liao soldiers, who were a little nervous, feel relieved, and nodded secretly.
Hearing this, Yang Yande had a smile on his face and shouted, "Someone! Take Jerryan! ”
Soon, a cart was pushed out with a cross tied to it, and the dead Jereyan was tied to it!
Yang Yande pointed his spear at Yeluyan and shouted, "Yeluyan's corpse is here!! ”
Closed, Qiu Min looked at Ye Luyan in the car, at this time he was still wearing the armor stomach, and the long hair on his head covered his face, so he couldn't see his appearance clearly. But Qiu Min has been with Yeluyan for several years, and he knows Yeluyan's body and posture very well. Just by looking at this, Qiu Min knew that the person in the car was Ye Luyan!
Qiu Min looked at Yang Yande who was closed, and roared angrily, "Damn! I'm going to kill these dog thieves! ”
After speaking, Han Hao stopped Qiu Min with one hand, looked at him with a solemn face, shook his head, and said heavily, "The overall situation is important!" Then, Han Hao shouted at Yang Yande outside the gate, "Hmph! Your trick is too clumsy! Find someone to imitate a general's armor and wear it on a dead man, and it is General Yelu? ”
Yang Yande smiled slightly, as if he had expected Han Hao to say this. Jumping off his horse, he drew his sword from the waist of one of the soldiers next to him and jumped onto the carriage...
"Since you don't believe me, I'll take a closer look at it!"
After speaking, the long sword in Yang Yande's hand slashed, and a white light flashed through Ye Luyan's throat.
Puff~
Yang Yande smiled with the head, and threw it on the close!
The two are two or three hundred meters apart, and it is okay to talk with luck, but if you want to throw a human head over, it is too difficult for Yang Yande, who is just a second-rate martial artist.
The head flew towards the gate, and after only two-thirds of the distance, it gradually showed its downward momentum...
Immediately, Yang Yande yelled...
"Third brother!"
As soon as the voice fell, only a swish was heard behind Yang Yande, and an iron arrow shot out quickly.
For!
On the wall of the gate, on an iron arrow, Yeluyan stared with wide eyes...
"General!!
After Han Hao and Qiu Min saw the face of the human head, they could no longer suppress the grief in their hearts and shouted in unison.
This voice quickly reached the ears of the surrounding Liao soldiers, causing a huge commotion...
"General Jerod is dead! What should we do? ”
"I still have an old mother, wife and children~ I don't want to die!"
"I want to avenge General Jerry!"
......
After hearing the news of Yeluyan's death, some of the soldiers were full of fear and hesitation, while some of the soldiers were very angry and fought bravely to kill the enemy.
Qiu Min hugged Yeluyan's head and roared, "Ahhh~ I want to avenge General Yelu!" ”
Han Hao on the side looked at Qiu Min with complicated eyes, he knew Qiu Min's feelings for Yeluyan, in the past few years, Qiu Min was able to sit in this position, and it was all pulled by Yeluyan. For Yeluyan, Qiu Min has great respect.
Han Hao patted Qiu Min's back and sighed. Walking to the city wall, looking at the Song army on the wall as dense as an ant colony, he thought to himself: "Since the Song army took out the corpse of General Yelu to hit the morale of our army, it will never give us a chance to breathe..."
Speaking of this, Han Hao glanced at the nearby Liao soldiers, most of their faces were in a trance and frightened, and they were still immersed in the news of General Yelu's death.
"No! Relying on these people alone, Hainan Pass will definitely be lost! Someone must be re-transferred! ”
In order to facilitate management, Yeluyan divided the 50,000 army into five divisions, and Han Hao and Qiu Min were the commanders of two of them.
After yesterday's battle, with the troops led by Han Hao, a total of four divisions were replaced. However, after resting, Han Hao expected that the first part to defend should have been repaired. In other words, now there are only 30,000 troops in the entire Hainan Pass that can be put into battle!
"I'll go to the camp to mobilize soldiers and horses, you take the soldiers to hold on for a while!" Han Hao glanced at Qiu Min, who was holding Ye Luyan's head on the ground, and turned around to leave after speaking.
Hainan Pass was less than ten miles away from the camp, and under the fast horse, Han Hao arrived in only a quarter of an hour.
Han Hao called out the commander in charge of the other two departments, and after carefully explaining the situation, he integrated 18,000 soldiers and rushed to Hainan Pass.
It wasn't until half an hour after Han Hao rushed to Hainan Pass with his soldiers and horses that Yue Fei's spies brought the news back to Yue Fei.
"Newspaper~"
"Marshal Qiyu! Half an hour ago, the Hainan Guan battalion dispatched two troops to Hainan Guan to help. Now there are less than 20,000 horses left in the camp! ”
Yue Fei sat on the couch with him and looked at the book of soldiers, and after hearing the news, his calm face finally showed a trace of waves.
Yue Fei was still worried that Hainan Pass had found traces on his side, so he wanted to lure himself into the bait, so he asked again, "Is the situation true?" Can you see clearly? ”
"It's true! The next group of people saw it with their own eyes! The Liao army is in a hurry, it must be Hainan Pass except for things! ”
Hearing this, Yue Fei slapped the military book on the couch table, couldn't help the ecstasy in his heart, and shouted, "Okay!" Good! Good! ”
Yue Fei stood up and shouted to the surrounding generals, "The whole army is slow, and after touching the Liao army camp for ten miles, launch a surprise attack!" ”
