On the north wall of Heyin, Xiao Tie was holding on to the battlements with a straight face, and at this time his hands were already weak, and he couldn't use any strength anymore to look at the sun in the west, where it became dusk. It's time, he's been holding out for twelve hours, and what should be done has been done, what about the commander's reinforcements?

The Liao soldiers in the city were red-eyed, and the Song soldiers were not like this, in order to take all the Heyin City, Zhang Jun had already gone into battle in person, and seeing that he was about to take the north city wall, Zhang Jun finally showed a little smile.

"The generals are moving forward, the Khitan dogs can't hold it anymore"

Woo woo, a terrible sound of bull horns sounded, followed by the feeling that the ground was shaking, Zhang Jun's smile froze on his face, it was a cavalry, only a large force of cavalry could cause such a shocking movement. Hehe, cavalry, it can't be from the Great Song Dynasty, it can only be from the Liao, Zhang Jun looked at the clear sky, and laughed miserably, why is God so unfair, can't he give him another half an hour?

Xiao Tiechi also smiled, but it was a relieved smile, when he saw the cavalry in the distance, he sat directly on the city wall, and finally came, it was still the cheetah battalion, it seems that the marshal did not give up on him. The battle was miserable, but it was worth it.

Cheng Fang and the others were pale, their lips trembled, the Liao cavalry arrived, and most of the follow-up men and horses were definitely not far away. Cheng Fang clenched his fists, leaned next to Qian Lin, and said in a low voice, "Brother Qian, do you remember what your brother said to you, take this brother away, how much can you go, quickly"

"Brother, what about you?"

"Hehe, Zhang Tong and I have a favor, so naturally I want to keep Zhang Tong!"

Cheng Fang smiled bitterly. There are also unwillingness. The sun overhead. Maybe the last time I saw it. The sound of horses' hooves was getting closer and closer, Zhang Jun's face was pale, but he had to pretend to be calm, because he was the backbone of the 30,000 army, and if he panicked, the others would not be able to hold on. The small Heyin Cheng paid the price of more than 16,000 people, but in the end he still did not take it down. What will be encountered next is the continuous influx of reinforcements from the Liao people in Xijing. The cavalry arrived, plus the men and horses transferred by Yelu Dashi from near Xijing, it is estimated that there are no less than 10,000 people, plus the cheetah battalion, which means that the Liao people have nearly 20,000 people, more than 10,000 infantry, and more than 10,000 cavalry. There will be no fighting spirit. It has been a full twelve hours since yesterday's unitary hour, and tens of thousands of troops have not been able to help but pay a heavy price. There was almost no rest, that is, the only thing to support the soldiers to fight now was to capture Heyin City, and now that the Liao reinforcements have arrived, there is no hope of capturing Heyin City, and the morale that has been held for a long time has collapsed directly.

Several commanders and envoys were also pale in the face, and they didn't have to think much about it to predict what would happen behind, a large force of Liao troops surrounded Heyin City, with the current tens of thousands of tired soldiers, how to resist? Cheng Fang was the first to react, he ran to Zhang Jun, and said hurriedly, "Zhang Tong, give the order, for today's plan, is to meet the enemy with the whole army, as long as you can fight a bloody road to the south, everyone still has to live, if you don't fight, if you want to rely on half of Heyin City and the Liao people, there is really no possibility." ”

Why doesn't Zhang Jun know? If you completely occupy Heyin, the Liao people are not afraid of coming to 50,000 troops, there is Heyin to rely on, the baggage is sufficient, as long as you insist on half a month, the Great Song Dynasty will be able to send reinforcements to capture the place near Heyin, at that time, unless Yelu Dashi dares to give up the defense of Xijing and transfer the Xijing army over, otherwise there is only a retreat, Heyin is stable, and the eastern Yingzhou territory can fight whenever you want. But now there is only half of Heyin, just like nothing, fighting with the Liao people in the city? It's a good choice, but can the Liao people be so stupid? Yelu Dashi only needs to block the four gates and continuously compress the range of activities of the Great Song soldiers, and he has to rush out, taking advantage of the fact that there are still more than 30,000 soldiers to fight, and he has not suffered more blows, he has to risk his life to fight and break a gap from the south.

Exhaling deeply, as if he wanted to spit out all the dullness in one breath, Zhang Jun glanced at the generals and suddenly shouted, "What's wrong?" All planted? And I am more than 30,000 years old Song Erlang, how can you admit defeat? Now all of them will raise their heads to the general, Qiao Huanfeng, Ma Jiaoxiao, Zhou Chunzheng, the three of you will lead 20,000 soldiers and horses to wait for the enemy three miles south of the city. Qian Lin and Qi Wenguang led the 3,000 men and horses of the headquarters to prevent Liao soldiers from breaking through from Beicheng. ”

"Huh" The generals replied loudly, and they all hurried away, but when Qian Lin left, he glanced at Cheng Fang deeply, and Cheng Fang also gave Qian Lin a look, signaling him to do what he had told before.

Qian Lin knew what Cheng Fang meant, it was impossible for more than 30,000 people to flee westward, that would be too dazzling, and it was necessary to rely on most of the men and horses to contain the Liao soldiers, and the others had the possibility of fleeing westward, because it was not close from Heyin City to the Hui River Valley, and no one was restrained.

Xiao Tiechi sat on the head of the city, not wanting to move at all, he wanted to sleep well now, and all the Liao soldiers around him showed excited smiles, some of them leaned against the city, some supported themselves and laughed wildly, and some actually knelt on the ground and cried. War, can see the nature of human beings, at this moment can see that all Liao soldiers are afraid of death, fear of death is not shameful, it does not affect the battle, survival, is the instinct of human beings.

If people have no timid heart, how can they be brave? Xiao Dachi finally understood this sentence, and now he knows why the marshal cherishes the lives of soldiers so much, because he cherishes his life, he will fight for his life, and in the face of fear, he walked over, that is a real warrior.

"General Xiao, look at you, it's the cheetah battalion, it's the big handsome here, it's the big handsome haha" The Liao soldiers celebrated frantically, and some people burst into tears, but they couldn't hide their joy.

In the first battle of Heyin, nearly 10,000 Liao soldiers died and only a few hundred people remained, and being able to escape and ascend to heaven is simply a gift from the gods. The Liao soldiers knew that they had won this battle, because the appearance of the cheetah battalion meant that the marshal had come in person, and the cheetah battalion was the sharpest knife in the hands of the marshal, and the knife was already in front of him, would the knife bearer be far away? The Liao soldiers were pleased, because, as General Xiao said, the marshal always remembered them.

Qian Lin and Qi Wenguang led the troops together to block the streets in the middle of Heyin, and the remnants of the Liao people in the north did not dare to come, and Xiao Dachi did not have the mind to go over. He had already done what he had to do. The rest is up to everyone else.

Zhang Jun led the army to retreat south in a hurry. Soon exited the small city of Heyin, and experienced a great battle, thick smoke billowed everywhere in Heyin, no one in the city was restrained, and a strong stench wafted in the air. Qian Lin guarded the central street, waiting for the people who should be evacuated, and he did not retreat to guard the south gate according to Zhang Jun's instructions. Qi Wenguang has been paying attention to Qian Lin, because half of Qian Lin's department has begun to walk towards West Street one after another. Further on is the west gate of Heyin.

"General Qian, Commander Zhang asked me to guard the south gate in case there are enemy soldiers behind you, what are you?"

Qian Lin squinted at Qi Wenguang and said lightly, "General Qi, Qian doesn't want to hide it from you, I won't go to the south gate, and the Liao people won't appear from the north, guarding the south gate is useless, but it will make the people and horses of the department cut off by the Liao soldiers." Qian Mou wanted to take the sons of the department to the west. It would be best if General Qi was willing to follow, if not. Qian didn't force it, he just hoped that General Qi wouldn't embarrass Qian. ”

"Hiss" Qian Lin is really straightforward enough, he is clearly going to disobey the general's order, Qi Wenguang gritted his teeth, he didn't know what to do, after thinking for a while, he caught up with Qian Lin and asked in a deep voice, "General Qian, listen to what you mean, it is difficult for my army to break through to the south?" ”

"Yes, in fact, before I came, General Cheng had already established a Zhang system, don't be in a hurry to fight Heyin, Yelu Dashi has led the army for many years, will you not know the importance of Heyin? I don't know what tricks are waiting for us at Yelu Dashi, but since he paid the price of nearly 10,000 people to nail tens of thousands of us to Heyin, he will not let us go lightly. ”

Qi Wenguang couldn't refute it for a while, although he was not subordinate to the Northwest Frontier Army System, but he had also heard of the name of Yelu Dashi, don't look at the most shining thing in Daliao today is the Nanjing garrison Yeluchun, but when it comes to fighting, no one can compare to Yelu Dashi. Suddenly, Qi Wenguang seemed to think of something, why was there only the Cheetah Camp that came just now? When the two armies are fighting, the cavalry is often put to the end as a killer weapon, even if the cavalry is used, it will not be all sent, but just look at the situation of the cavalry, more than 10,000 troops, this is all the cavalry of the Cheetah battalion. Yelu Dashi is the first general of the clan, it is impossible to release all the cavalry like a rookie, if what is expected is true, then it means that Yelu Dashi still has nearly 10,000 cavalry in his hands, thinking of this, Qi Wenguang is cold from head to foot, how did the large number of cavalry hide from the Great Song Dynasty?

"General Qian, Qi will go west with you" Qi Wenguang didn't hesitate any longer, Qian Lin didn't say anything, nodded and led the soldiers and horses to leave the west gate of Heyin in a hurry.

Three quarters of the unitary hour, the south of the river in the Wuzhang Plain, under the sunset, the Wuzhang Plain appears so vast, the breeze is coming, full of grassy breath, purple wildflowers, vigorous petals, want to layer by layer of film pasted on the grass, looking at it from afar, there is a purple carpet, soft and beautiful. On the edge of the sky, a large army walked slowly, and before anyone arrived, the sound of heavy footsteps had already shocked people's hearts.

Finally came, seeing the Liao soldiers coming from the clouds in the distance, Zhang Jun suddenly showed a relieved smile, he didn't care about how many Liao soldiers there were, because there were more and less, they were all the same.

"Qiao Huanfeng, line up, no matter what, kill Ben General!"

Qiao Huanfeng wiped the blood on his face, and shouted, "Oh, don't worry, the commander is here, the last general is here, and he will break out of a gap for the army!" ”

Nowadays, there is no need for pre-war mobilization at all, because everyone knows that if they don't fight, they will die, because there is no way out, and the only way to retreat is ahead. Qiao Huanfeng turned over and got on the horse, the double knives in his hands were clenched, the knife in his left hand was already mostly a gap because of too many slashes, he took off his helmet, raised his right hand, and under the sunset, Qiao Huanfeng was like Jing Ke on the bank of the Yishui River.

When the Song soldiers lined up, Yelu Dashi already knew what Zhang Jun was going to do, he admired these Song soldiers a little, the previous Song soldiers would have collapsed if they encountered this situation, these Han people did not collapse, and reacted quickly. Turning back and fighting hard, it seems stupid, but it is also the last chance, as long as you can break through the gap, you can escape, and more than 30,000 people are fighting to the death, it is impossible not to break through the gap. Zhang Jun wants to work hard, but Yelu Dashi doesn't want to fight hard, what he wants is to annihilate this Song army at the lowest cost.

"Xiao Gan, lead the Chinese army to disperse to the left and right wings, cooperate with the soldiers and horses on the two wings to copy from the outside, and give the middle road to the Han people" Yelu Dashi sneered, and Xiao Gan and other generals also laughed. Xiao Gan admires Yelu Dashi more and more, this famous general of the clan never fights rigidly, and the means are frequent, like this time, if someone else else may directly block the way and fight to the death with the Han people, the army of the Han people is tired, and has just experienced a big war, where is the opponent of the Da Liao warriors? But Yelu Dashi didn't do this, he just gave way for the Han people to run.

The Liao soldiers were separated from the left and right, and the men and horses on both wings were suddenly thick, and Han Dexiang led more than 10,000 cavalry of the Cheetah Battalion to detour outside, and suddenly a strange scene was formed on the battlefield. There is a wide passage directly in front of the Song soldiers, and you only need to rush through dozens of miles to return to Shijie Valley. (To be continued......)
