Chapter 505: The counterattack of the Liao soldiers



Quartz said to Ruda, "You go back, what are we going to do,"

Luda said: "If you want the Sprinkle family to say that you should go back to Zhao County with the Sprinkle family to rest, then the remnants of the army will be exterminated by the Pang Wanchun brothers." ”

Quartz said: "That's not good, we haven't fought a decent battle yet, we have to follow Battalion Commander Pang to fight the Liao soldiers." ”

Luda said: "That's good, it's just that you can't mess around, you have to listen to my Pang Wanchun brothers." ”

"Direction, we know the weight." Quartz said.

Pang Wanchun nodded helplessly and said, "Okay, Battalion Commander Lu, don't worry, I will definitely take them well." ”

Quartz and other hundreds of militiamen are still good at fighting, of course, unless they have to, they are generally just fighting, and the frontal impact is still a matter of the regular army.

Quartz, this girl, obviously has a little meaning to Monk Lu, but Monk Lu is a rough person and pretends not to know.

Pang Wanchun and Quartz led their troops to Xinji, chasing the fleeing rebels in all directions. Luda led the soldiers back to Zhao County, and Zhao Long led more than 1,000 lightly wounded soldiers to watch the Liao soldiers and prisoners.

Zhao County, which had been looted by the war, was devastated and full of houses destroyed by the war, and homeless people everywhere.

When Luda returned, Zhao Longzheng commanded 20,000 people to clean up the houses that were burned down by the war, and it was impossible to build new houses in the winter, and the homeless people lived in low nests, and most of the food stolen by the Liao soldiers was distributed back, leaving a part of the porridge, two meals of gruel a day, and the days were hard to wait for the beginning of spring.

The soldiers who were cleaning the city gate saw that Battalion Commander Lu had returned, and they were very happy and shouted: "Battalion Commander Lu is back, and our brothers are back." ”

The armies merged, and the soldiers were happy. Zhao Long said: "How did you catch up with the Liao soldiers?"

Luda shook his head: "Only more than a thousand Liao soldiers were annihilated, and the rest fled." Now the Liao soldiers have come with another 20,000 responding troops, and they are facing our main force along the Hutuo River, and neither side dares to act rashly. Presumably, the main force of the Liao army led by Ye Luxiong is also about to arrive, and we have to strengthen the city defense, so as not to let the Liao soldiers take advantage of the loopholes. ”

"Okay, leave these things to me, you go and rest." Zhao Long said.

Luda said: "There is no problem with the body of the Sprinkle family, let the wounded soldiers rest, and all those who are not injured will work." ”

Information from the south kept coming, and Yeluxiong led 50,000 Liao soldiers to entrap tens of thousands of people less than 150 miles away from here, and it seemed that they could reach it in three days. The main force of the Jeju army led by Chao Gai, Lu Junyi, Qin Ming, Li Kui, Yang Zhi, Shi Jin, Huang Xin and others followed closely, but the Liao soldiers were coerced by the people and did not carry out a large-scale attack.

Zhao County just happened to intercept the only way for the Liao soldiers to retreat, and Yeluxiong was likely to jump over the wall in a hurry and attack Zhao County. So the situation is very serious, Luda and Zhao Long began to renovate the city defense of Zhao County, first digging large and small traps more than ten meters outside the city wall, the civil construction of the cold ground was very difficult, and many soldiers' hands were cracked. Then the city wall was made of planks and timber to make a wall of arrow-throwing women, and then the wall was filled with rolling logs, stones, and oil. The 20,000 strong men were all pikemen's equipment, which was obviously a bit unreasonable, and some carpenters were mobilized to temporarily build some small wooden shields for emergency. Although Luda was born in the Western Army, his specialty lies in charging into battle, and he really has no experience in the defense of the city wall, thanks to Zhao Long's assistance. plus 20,000 strong men working hard. It didn't take a few days to lay out the iron bucket in Zhao County.

Let's talk about the Liao soldiers more than a hundred miles away. They're not having a good time either. Yeluxiong's hair has turned gray these days. It's just that he wears a helmet all day. No one else can see it.

The Liao soldiers have been defeated repeatedly, and their morale has fallen to the extreme. Fortunately, Aliyun, Yelu Zonglin and other generals with high prestige in the army jointly supported it. This did not demoralize.

Tonight, Yeluxiong hosted a banquet for the generals in the Chinese army. The huge Chinese tents were brightly lit. The beef stew in a large pot has a fragrant smell.

Yeluxiong said: "All the generals have worked hard for several days. Ben Shuai thanked everyone. As he spoke, he raised his tall bronze glass and drank it down.

And all the generals drank all the wine. But the atmosphere was sluggish. Just a few bowls of wine. All of them are red-faced and red-eared. A general sighed: "Fight with the Song Kingdom." Which time didn't hit them. Only this time he fled in embarrassment. It's a shame. ”

Another general said: "Although it failed." But I was not reconciled. Where did this Jeju Army come from? With firearms, we fled in embarrassment several times. ”

Yeluxiong said: "If the firearms of the Song Kingdom cannot be used. Whether we will win or not, I think the main force of the Jeju army is only more than 30,000 people. That Chao Gai is not a guarantee of origin. There is no experience in large-scale operations. ”

The generals said, "If the Jeju army doesn't have firearms to help." It's going to make their butts pee. Defeated the Jeju army in one fell swoop. ”

"There is no joke in the army. You may be willing to make a military order. If only the Jeju Army had no firearms. You will do your best. Jeruchon asked.

The generals said: "Of course, we are willing to make a military order." ”

At this time, a smug look flashed on Aliyun's face, and he took the military order and asked the big guy to write it. At this time, Yeluxiong said: "Aliyun military division is expected to have winter rain tomorrow, although Jeju firearms are sharp, but they can't be used when it rains, we will counterattack once tomorrow, whether we can win in this move, those who dare to slack will not be spared." Jermanchon said.

The generals agreed and came out.

It turned out that although Yeluxiong was the commander of the three armies, the real strength was still in the hands of the generals of the real power, and if these generals did not work hard, Yeluxiong would have no choice.

That night the sky changed, the cold wind howled, but there was no snow, but a light rain, and the rain fell to the ground and condensed into winter rain.

At this time, the Jeju military camp twenty miles away, except for the soldiers on duty at night, everyone else had already slept, and the huge camp was quiet.

Gongsun Sheng couldn't sleep, and when he came out at night to see that it was raining outside, he pinched his fingers, was shocked, and said to Dao Tong: "It's not good, go with me to see the general immediately." ”

Gongsun Sheng didn't bother to change into formal clothes, and only wore a cotton suit and went to Chao to build a camp. Luo Yun was on duty outside the tent with the guards, and when he saw Gongsun Sheng coming, he hurriedly asked, "Military advisor, what's the matter, the general just fell asleep." ”

Gongsun Sheng said: "100,000 urgent, report immediately." ”

"Okay, Strategist later." Where did Luo Yun dare to delay, he immediately went in and woke Chao Gai up.

Chao Gai was sleepy-eyed, and hurriedly asked Gongsun Sheng, "Military advisor, what's the matter." ”

"It's raining in winter, and the Liao soldiers will definitely come to attack." Gongsun Sheng's words startled Chao Gai, and Chao Gai immediately said: "There must be no mistake in passing on Wu Yong's military division and other battalion-level generals. ”
