638th Battle of Song Liao 9
"Who are you, and where have you seen such a formation?" Yelu Zhongke asked in a deep voice.
"Lord Dutong, the small one is named Yelu Dashi, he is a native of Shangjing, and he just entered the palace division army this year."
It is gold that shines wherever it is, Yelu Dashi proved this sentence to Cai Dao.
Perhaps it was Cai Dao's own influence on this time and space, Yelu Dashi actually entered the palace division army directly at a young age, instead of continuing to study hard at home as written in the history books, knowing that when he was twenty-nine years old, he became the only Khitan Jinshi recorded in the history books.
In Liao history, Yelu Dashi is the eighth grandson of Yelu Abaoji, and this identity is actually similar to Liu Bei's imperial uncle who no one recognizes.
Again, gold shines everywhere.
In this way, Yelu Dashi entered the front of Yelu Zhongke early.
"Lord Huidutong, but the Moon Formation is a formation created by Liu Yu, the founding emperor of the Song State of the Southern Dynasty, and its purpose is to deal with cavalry. …… Back then, Liu Yu relied on this army formation to defeat tens of thousands of iron cavalry of Nanyan in one fell swoop with thousands of weak infantry. …… However, due to the many conditions of the Moon Formation, the military formation in history was only used by Liu Yu. Jerodashi explained very succinctly.
Yelu Zhongke asked, the meaning of his words was a bit of an examination: "In this way, the formation used by the Song army at this moment is the Moon Formation!" So how should Ben Shuai deal with it? ”
"Lord Huidutong, it is indeed a little similar, and although the Taishi of the Southern Kingdom has never been to the territory of my Great Liao, he has also heard that he was born with a good understanding of astronomy and geography, and even knows the overseas islands very well, so he must be naturally familiar with the situation in my Liao Kingdom. Therefore, the commander on the opposite side was able to think of taking advantage of the topography of the Luanhe River to block our army. As for how to deal with it, please forgive me for being shallow and not knowing how to answer the Lord. "A high-ranking and powerful palace division army is in charge, and a small palace division army is an ordinary cavalry, no wonder Yelu Dashi doesn't dare to say anything.
"Alas!" Yelu Zhongke sighed helplessly, looking at the palace division army that had already rushed into the Song army's chariot array, his heart was full of helplessness. Of course, the most correct thing to do was to immediately withdraw the troops, but Yelu Yanxi watched not far behind him, and hastily withdrew his troops, and just guessed that the other party used a moon formation that few people had heard of to defeat the infantry with a small number of infantry.
If this is said in front of His Majesty, will His Majesty believe it?
Jerodonke asked himself many times, but he got the same answer, not believing.
Only when the results are in front of His Majesty will he be able to heed his advice.
However, Yelu Zhongke was still relatively gratified, and it was a very happy thing to be able to find a talented person for the Liao State in a short conversation. Therefore, Jelu Chunk kept Jerod Stone with him.
In fact, both of them were born into royal families, and even Yelu Zhongke's family lineage was closer to the emperor than Yelu Dashi.
The battle situation turned out to be as expected by the two, in the early stage, because some of the Song troops were in a hurry, some of the chariots were not placed in the predetermined positions, which made there a gap between the chariots.
Many Song soldiers were killed and wounded as a result, but with the assistance of warships on the Luanhe River, the Song army finally stabilized the situation. withstood the first wave of the offensive of the Liao army, and it was also the most ferocious first wave of the offensive.
In front of the chariot, there were many dead bodies of soldiers of the Liao Army Palace, and war horses that were still wailing.
After repeated failures, Yelu Zhongke asked Yelu Yanxi for instructions and stopped this pointless battle. Now, even the emperor could see that with the protection of those warships on the Luan River, the Liao cavalry could not get close to the Song infantry who had already set up camp on the south bank of the Luan River. This is a provocative act of Chiguoguo, but the Liao army has no way to take this small group of Song troops.
In the middle of the night, while Yelu Zhongke was thinking about what to do next, a large red cloud of fire suddenly appeared on the south side of the barracks.
The firelight shone on the black night sky, and it didn't take much effort for the army to start a commotion.
In addition to the tent, Yelu Zhongke looked at the direction of the burning cloud, and could no longer hold back the pent-up anger and helplessness in his heart, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and Yelu Zhongke fell into the arms of Yelu Dashi, who came quickly.
Before he fell unconscious, Jerry Jongk shouted, "Hurry up!" ”
The most important grain depot of the palace army was burned, which is the main reason why Yelu Zhongke vomited blood and fell into a coma.
Most of the soldiers of the palace division army understood, and he naturally understood that maybe at this time, in the entire military camp, only His Majesty the Emperor did not know what the appearance of this burning cloud meant for the more than 80,000 palace division troops?
Hurry up, where to go, maybe Yelu Dashi is clear, maybe the new palace division and the two deputy commanders are also clear, but this kind of thing is not only the emperor His Majesty can call the shots, except for Yelu Zhongke, who is already in a coma. But at this time, His Majesty must be sleeping, and no one dares to disturb His Majesty for this matter.
So, knowing that the situation was critical, Yelu Dashi and the two deputy commanders could only wait in front of Yelu Zhongke's bed.
Time was wasted minute by minute, and when His Majesty the Emperor finally woke up the next morning, Yelu Zhongke finally woke up, but at this time, he lost his official body once, and the new palace division army had just been born.
No, except for Yelu Dashi, the two deputy commanders also slipped away quietly at some point, and they must have gone to congratulate the new capital. This time, it was not that Yelu Yanxi was angry with him because of the burning of grain and grass, but I heard that he vomited blood and became seriously ill, and he was no longer able to govern. Therefore, he ordered the removal of Yelu Zhongke from his position as capital.
"My lord, although you have commanded the little ones, the little ones understand what you mean. However, a small official and a small position are really not the master! Alas! Yelu Dashi explained.
Yelu Zhongke waved his hand, signaled him to stop talking, and said with difficulty: "Dashi, go and find out how Your Majesty and the new capital have decided!" ”
……
That is, after about two quarters of an hour, Yelu Dashi returned, but he was followed by a man dressed as a scholar.
"Who is this person?" Yelu Zhongke raised his hand with difficulty, pointed at the scholar, and asked strangely.
