Chapter 124: The Decisive Battle (5)
Only then did the soldiers of the Liao State discover that on the inner side of the ditch, there were thick iron ropes tied to the countless wooden stakes, and what was even more terrifying was that there were many sharp barbs on the iron ropes.
It was only when these sharp barbs pierced into the skin that he hung in the air and kept bleeding.
At this time, the Wuyan army also found out that something was wrong, and he hurriedly shouted: "The whole army stops!" ”
With the shouts of the commander, the Liao army stopped the front army, but at this time, nearly 400 Liao soldiers had fallen into the ditch and were stabbed to death by wooden stakes.
Before the Wuyan army could consider whether to cancel this night attack.
The archers of the Dingxiang army are already in place. With Li Ying's shout, he ordered.
"Whoosh~~Whoosh~~!"
Feathered arrows were like locusts, falling from the sky with a terrible whistling sound.
Although in the dark of night, the sight is not very good. However, the "raindrops" of more than 10,000 arrows sent by 13,000 archers still caused the Liao army to continue to have soldiers fall from arrows, screaming one after another.
Hearing the screams of his subordinates and seeing the rapid rain of arrows from the other side, the Wuyan army knew that the Song army must have been prepared, and his attack tonight was a complete failure.
The Wuyan army shouted helplessly: "Mingjin withdraws his troops!" ”
With the crisp and loud sound of Mingjin, the Liao army suddenly withdrew like a tide.
However, even if they retreated, the Wuyan Commander Army also kept an eye on it.
He sent Jerod with 10,000 men and horses to ambush on the side of the retreat.
If the Song army dared to pursue, he would immediately turn over, unite with Yelu, and catch the Song army off guard.
However, to the surprise of the Wuyan army, after retreating for more than ten miles, the Song army did not even pursue. This made the Wuyan Commander feel a little disappointed!
He hoped that the Song army master would attack boldly, so that he would also have a chance to turn defeat into victory, but he didn't expect that the Song army master would be so timid and cautious!
Wasted their own arrangements!
Withdraw, fifteen miles away from the Song army camp, a small forest.
The Liao army had been running for a night, and now it was very tired.
Even if there were only fifteen miles away from his own camp, the Wuyan army could only order to suspend the advance and rest the whole army.
Hearing the order to rest, many Liao soldiers immediately ignored it and sat on the ground.
When the Wuyan army saw it, he wanted to scold him a few times, but when he saw the tired appearance of his subordinates, he didn't make a sound after all. From yesterday to now, they have been busy all day, and they have not rested until now. There was no coaxing, no mutiny, and he was already worthy of himself.
Anyway, after Yelu had to return to the palace of the army, if there were enemy troops, he should have sent someone to warn him.
The Wuyan commander acquiesced to his men sitting on the ground and resting in this way, and he himself got off his horse and sat down under a stump.
Thinking that the Song army camp was heavily guarded tonight, I didn't expect that in addition to arranging open and dark posts, the Song army also carried wolf dogs with the army.
The wolfdogs patrolled around, five hundred paces away, and the wolfdogs spotted their men and barked desperately, alarming the soldiers of the Dingxiang army.
A sneak attack turned into a storm!
In addition to these, ditches were dug around the camp, iron ropes were pulled up in the ditches, and two lanes were arranged inside and out. Those iron ropes are densely arranged with barbed hooks,
If you don't cut it, you can't pass it at all.
In this attack, instead of killing a single Song army, he left 700 soldiers behind, and more importantly, the army had not yet had a chance to rest.
Thinking of that ditch and those iron ropes, Wuyan Tongjun couldn't wait to scold in his heart.
"Damn, I don't know how these Song dogs came up with those things, and they set up such a damaging move, which is even more difficult to start than hedgehogs!"
His own soldiers didn't get a good rest, and whether they would continue to attack tomorrow or not, Wuyan Tongjun was also at a loss in his heart.
At this moment, for the first time in his heart, he had the shadow of failure in this expedition.
Just when the Wuyan army was thinking about how to recover the decline and defeat the Song army.
He sensed a tremor in the ground as the sound of a bull's horn behind him sounded.
This tremor was all too familiar to him, and only a cavalry could cause such a movement.
The cavalry of the Song army is coming!
The Wuyan commander was shocked and hurriedly shouted: "The enemy is attacking, prepare to meet the enemy!" ”
At this time, the horn soldiers of the Chinese army desperately blew the horn battle horn, and the Liao army suddenly fell into a chaos, and the Liao soldiers sitting on the ground hurriedly got up, and those cavalry also hurriedly grabbed their weapons and got on their horses.
But it was not yet time for the Liao army to get ready.
A rain of arrows has already been fired!
With the roar of death, it fell, and immediately sent away the lives of hundreds of Liao soldiers.
Just finished shooting a round, and the Liao army had not yet reacted. The whistling arrow came to receive it again, through the night fog, straight into the Liao army, and brought the soul envoy.
"Fight back! Quickly counterattack" The Wuyan Commander resounded loudly.
"Kill!" The Liao army, which had already turned over and mounted its horse, roared angrily and slaughtered the incoming enemy.
Shi Wengong, who was in the lead, shouted, "Sons, withdraw!" ”
Three thousand wind wolf cavalry soldiers responded violently, and thousands of iron hooves stirred up dust in the sky, like a rolling iron stream that continued to wipe past the edge of the Liao army, leaving only hundreds of Liao soldiers behind.
was secretly attacked by the cavalry of the Song army, and the soldiers of the Liao army were willing to give up. The Venus general Uli Ke'an and the Mercury general Qu Li Izuqing led the Liao cavalry who had already mounted their horses to chase after them.
Not long after Uli Ke'an and Qu Li Qingqing led their troops in pursuit, they heard another commotion behind them.
After a javelin attack, the left and right flying leopards flashed their sabers.
The Flying Leopard Rider has been trained hard by Qin Ming and Luan Tingyu, coupled with good equipment, making them fierce and deadly.
The saber is ho, and the head is rolling.
Qin Ming and Luan Tingyu, who served as sharp arrows, suddenly set off a rain of blood in the sky, and Liao soldiers continued to fall.
In the blink of an eye, the Flying Leopard Cavalry completely penetrated through the corners of the Liao Army.
After penetrating the Liao army, the Flying Leopard Rider did not stop.
As if by appointment, the Flying Leopard rode his horse's head and fled in the other direction of the Wind Wolf Ride.
What was left for the Wuyan army was the corpses of more than 2,000 Liao soldiers scattered on the ground, and some seriously wounded soldiers were also lying on the ground and wailing dying.
The cavalry of the Song army did not leave in love, and immediately retreated after the first blow.
The cavalry of the Liao army couldn't catch up, and they saw that they were getting closer and closer to the camp of the Song army, for fear that they would be surrounded by the other party.
Uli Ke'an and Quli had no choice but to lead the troops to withdraw.
When the morning light sprinkled into the earth, the Wuyan army finally led the Liao army back to the large army camp.
The Wuyan army sent out bright and dark sentinels to guard all around, and then let the others seize the time to rest.
His subordinates can rest, but the Wuyan army can't rest yet.
"What are the casualties today?" The Wuyan Commander asked the adjutant general Yelu Dezhong in a deep voice.
"More than 6,000 people were killed tonight and more than 1,000 seriously wounded! What's more, tonight's battle was a complete failure, which had a very bad impact on the morale of our army! Jerod replied bitterly after counting the casualties.
"Hey......" Wuyan Tongjun tightened his eyebrows and sighed heavily.
"General, it's not a way to go on like this!" Yelude frowned, and said in a deep voice, "Our army is demoralized now, so let's retreat to Xianzhou City and rely on the strong city to defend it!" ”
