The cities of Gaochang were opened, and Xiao Chu personally led an army of 50,000 to kill and rush out. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info This time, Xiao Chu wants to make meritorious contributions. He knew very well what it meant to make meritorious service at this time, that is, the high-ranking officials of Western Liao in the future.

As long as he could stop the Mongol army, his credit in this battle was to save Western Liao. Such a performance will inevitably pave the way for the future.

"The whole army obeys the order, disperses the attack, and must slow down the advance of the Mongols." Xiao Chu gave the order, and then took the lead in rushing out with dozens of people.

In the process of advancing, the 50,000-strong Western Liao army was quickly divided into several hundred small forces.

Li Yuanhao's 8,000 people only had more than 2,000 left at the moment, and the 20,000 Mengu army that intercepted them was about 8,000 at the moment.

"Dashuai, what should I do?" The lieutenant came over and asked anxiously.

In this case, everyone knows that as long as you retreat, there will be a glimmer of life. But Li Yuanhao's order was to move forward and detour.

Li Yuanhao had exhausted his tactics in order to bypass the Mongol army that was blocking them. But unfortunately, because the Mongolian army and the Xia army led by Li Yuanhao were very close. No matter how Li Yuanhao used the strategy, in such a close situation, it was all in vain.

The Xia army broke out with amazing combat effectiveness, with one enemy and two, but the result was still unable to rush through. Now Li Yuanhao only has 2,000 people left, while the Mongol army on the opposite side is more than 8,000 people. This is even more serious than the initial 8,000 people facing 20,000 people.

Although Xia Jun fought for his life this time, not everyone was not afraid of death. In particular, when there is no chance of winning, he chooses to attack and send him to death, which is simply a fool's behavior.

Therefore, the deputy general will ask this question at this time, as for the reason, it is that he does not want to die. Or rather, I don't want to die in the way of sending people to death.

"What should I do?" Li Yuanhao looked at the approaching Mongol army. "Drag them and find a way to get around them!"

"Dashuai, it's impossible to bypass them, let's retreat!" In desperation, the adjutant general put forward his own views. The deputy general has already seen that if he relies on Li Yuanhao, then Li Yuanhao will definitely fight to the death here.

"Withdraw? The troops around us have come to help, so withdraw at this time? Li Yuanhao glared at the lieutenant general. If you're afraid of death, you can get out of here! Afterwards, Li Yuanhao looked at the surrounding soldiers and shouted. Brothers, those who are not afraid of death will fight to the death here with me, and those who are afraid of death can get out now. ”

As soon as Li Yuanhao's words came out, the crowd was excited, and they expressed their willingness to fight to the death. This made the lieutenant who planned to escape very embarrassed, and finally gritted his teeth and stayed where he was.

At this time, I have no intention of following the deserter. Although the adjutant general is afraid of death, the adjutant general is even more afraid of losing his dignity.

"Marshal, this group of Mongolian soldiers should also be scared by us." Looking at the Mongol army, which was approaching very slowly, the adjutant general said.

"We are one against two, and if they go together, at least half of them will die. They are also human beings, and they are also afraid of death! Li Yuanhao said coldly.

"However, if it drags on like this, once Gao Chang misses, we will ......" The deputy general did not say it explicitly, but the meaning was fully expressed. If Gao Chang misses, then they will be shot by a Mongolian horseman.

"Don't worry, Gaochang is not so easy to lose." After finishing speaking, Li Yuanhao looked at the rear of the slowly approaching Mongolian army. There were a few horses galloping in this direction.

Li Yuanhao was a little excited, there were still very few people who came at this time, this must be his own people.

If your own people come over at this time, they must have brought news. Li Yuanhao felt that the news of this meeting should be good news.

"Marshal, marshal, the Liao State has already sent troops." The soldiers who came from afar shouted from afar.

This news made everyone in Western Xia excited, and the Mongol army did not change its face.

The people of Western Xia were excited, because they had reinforcements, and the Mongolian army did not change its face because the Western Liao army was really not worth mentioning in their eyes. Those armies that have been defeated repeatedly, they are not fart.

"How many troops are sent by Xiliao!" Li Yuanhao asked the adjutant general.

"I don't know how many troops will be sent, all over the sky, at least 50,000." The soldier who came to report the news replied from afar. He said this to put pressure on the Mongol army that was approaching Li Yuanhao.

"Good, good!" Li Yuanhao shouted two good in a row. In order to scare the besieging Mongol army, Li Yuanhao asked again. "How many of our troops are coming!"

"It's almost 50,000." The soldier on the opposite side thought for a moment and replied.

"How many of King Song's troops are coming?" Li Yuanhao asked again.

Everyone knows that King Song's army has not yet believed in Ben. But at this time, Li Yuanhao looked at the mouth and asked, so that the soldiers who came to report the news were stunned for a while, and then gave Li Yuanhao a satisfactory answer. "The army of the King of Song is 300,000, and it is only thirty miles away from here, as long as we drag the Mongolian army, before the Mongolian army reaches Gaochang City, the army of the King of Song will be able to come."

The news of the soldiers was completely made up by themselves.

But this news has changed a lot of things.

The Mongolian cavalry generals who were approaching Li Yuanhao, after hearing the news, could not be sure whether the matter was true or false. But at this time, any piece of news determines the outcome of the war.

For the sake of safety, the general sent the deputy general to chase after Mutuo and report the news.

At this time, how could Li Yuanhao see the Mongolian army sending someone to deliver the news, he shouted loudly and said. "Stop the person who delivered the message, and you can't let them pass it back."

After finishing speaking, Li Yuanhao shouted to the soldiers who had not left in the distance. "You hurry back, find the Liao State and our soldiers, come and annihilate this wave of Mongol troops, this news can't be passed back to them."

The soldiers saw that the Mongolian soldiers and Li Yuanhao attached so much importance to the news he made up, and at this moment, he didn't dare to say that the news was made up. He and the other two soldiers who had come to report the news rode back and rushed out.

At this time, the Mongol army was even more convinced of the confirmation of the news.

At this time, when the troops were divided, some of them would be dragged by Li Yuanhao's Xia army, and the other part would probably be wiped out by the troops of the Liao State and Western Xia who came to besiege them. After thinking about it, the Mongolian generals decided to let go of Li Yuanhao's Xia army, and the whole army retreated, passing the news to Mutuo.

Subsequently, the Mongol army retreated, while Li Yuanhao's army intensified the attack.

This small battlefield turned around in an instant. The Mongol army turned into lambs and fled in front, and the small number of Western Xia troops turned into hungry wolves and pursued in the rear.

The Mongol army continued to rush forward, shooting arrows backwards to defend against the pursuing Western Xia army. And Li Yuanhao and others were holding bows and arrows, chasing and beating behind the Mongolian army.

Li Yuanhao's heart is happy at the moment, a fake news will resolve the crisis, and the small battle here will form a divine turn.

In the process of advancing the Mongol army, the Western Xia army and the Western Liao army constantly rushed out to intercept it, which made this wave of Mongols think that the news was correct. So, he sprinted forward even more frantically. They want to inform Muto of this important news.

The Mongol army was strong, and although it was intercepted by many parties, a small wave eventually returned to the ranks of the Mongol army.

The generals who led this wave of Mongol troops rushed to Mutuo's war horse and bowed. "Your Majesty, the minister has received news that King Song's army is less than thirty miles away from here, and he hereby comes back to report it."

"Zhao Shuo's army is less than thirty meters away from here?" Mu Tuo gritted his teeth and looked at the general who reported the news. "You also believe such news, are you not able to do things? I asked you to intercept Li Yuanhao's army, how did you do it? ”

"There are only 2,000 of them left after the retainers......" the general said at this point, and did not continue. Because Mu Tuo's face had completely darkened. The general has a deep understanding of Mu Tuo's look. Mu Tuo appeared with this look, it was anger to the extreme, and he was going to kill someone with such an expression. And this time, it is likely to be him who will be killed.

The general didn't speak, and Mu Tuo gasped heavily, staring at the general. The generals didn't dare to take a breath even if they were angry.

"Report!" At this time, a herald ran over. "Your Majesty, the 50,000 troops of Western Liao and the 20,000 troops of Western Xia have begun to assemble from dispersion. And, and ......"

"Say!" Muto scolded.

"Moreover, it was reported from their army that the army of the King of Song had arrived, and it was less than thirty miles from here." The herald replied.

"Hmph, hum, hum......" Mu Tuo sneered, and then asked Ming An, the strategist beside him. Do you think that my army of 500,000 and countless scouts are innumerable, and Zhao Shuo's army is thirty miles away from us, can I not know? ”

Ming An analyzed it at this time. "It stands to reason that this is impossible, but the other party is Zhao Shuo, this kid is scheming, we can't help but guard against it."

After finishing speaking, Ming An gave another analysis from the message brought back by the herald. "The Liao army and the Xia army, which were originally here to harass our advance, are now concentrated, which shows that they want to fight us to the death. There are about 100,000 of their soldiers, and although our army has 500,000, it will take some time to destroy these more than 100,000 Liaoxia coalition troops in one fell swoop. If Zhao Shuo is really thirty miles away, and we are tired from fighting, they just arrive, which is quite unfavorable for us. ”

"So what do you say? Could it be that Gaochang City, which was in hand, just gave up. Mu Tuo asked with an unhappy expression.

"Attack Gaochang now, the defenders of Gaochang will inevitably defend desperately, waiting for reinforcements, and when the time comes, the internal and external attacks will be flanked, for us, but ......" Ming'an is very smart, and the point is up to the end. The reason why he did this was because Muto had a killing nature, and he would kill people to vent his anger if he was slightly unhappy. If Zhao Shuo led the army to arrive at this moment, the unhappy Mu Tuo would have killed people, and he, a strategist, didn't want to die.

"Hmph, this damn Zhao Shuo, is it really time to come?" Muto shook his head slightly. At this time, he still didn't believe the news of Zhao Shuo's arrival.

"The waiter didn't bring back the news of Zhao Shuo's arrival, so this news is fake." Muto gave his own inference.

"Pass the order!" Muto, who had made an inference, looked at the herald. "Pass my generals, the whole army will advance at full speed and attack Gaochang."

"Yes!" The herald turned, exhaled lightly, and the herald went.

"You!" Mu Tuo looked at the general who was kneeling on the ground and came back to report the news. "You bring some people, go to the surrounding area to check, and once you find signs of Zhao Shuo's army, come back and report immediately."

The general was pardoned, and Shane retreated.

Subsequently, Mu Tuo led the army, accelerated the march, and went straight to Gaochang City.

At this moment, the Mongol army is no longer harassed by the Xia army and the Liao army, and the speed is very fast.

"Brother Li, what should I do!" Looking at the Mongolian army galloping towards Gaochang City, Xiao Chu asked anxiously.

"What to do? What to do? Li Yuanhao glared at Xiao Chu and scolded. Who told you to order the assembly of a large army, and also gathered our Western Xia army? Isn't this looking for something on your own? ”

Li Yuanhao was helpless and speechless. He finally caught up, but before he could rejoice, the soldiers who had scattered and harassed the Mongol army began to assemble. Then, Xiao Chu found him and handed over the command of the army to him. He asked him how he would fight the Mongol army.

Li Yuanhao was angry at this time. After all, only scattered harassment could advance the greatest possible way to drag down the Mongol army. If it is assembled to start a war, it will inevitably be a devastating blow to the Western Xia army and the Western Liao army, which have only 100,000 troops.

After all, to start a frontal war is to go head-to-head with the Mongol army.

"Brother Li, you can't blame me for this, didn't you say that King Song's army is coming? As soon as his army arrives, if we still scatter the attack, we will be laughed at by him, and second, it will be inconvenient to start a war with the Mongol army. Xiao Chu gave his own account.

This time, Li Yuanhao really smiled bitterly. He didn't know what would happen to Xiao Chu if he told Xiao Chu that the news of King Song's arrival was fake.

"You send someone back to tell your king that we are attacking the Mongol army with all our strength!" After a pause, Li Yuanhao added. "Tell her that Gaochang City can't be lost. Be sure to hold out until the arrival of the army of the King of Song. ”

Xiao Chu was a little confused, because in his opinion, Zhao Shuo's army had arrived. But at this time, it was not the time for him to ask, and the soldiers were quickly dispatched, but before they reached the city of Gaochang, the city was surrounded by the Mongol army.

"Yo, isn't this Muto? Long time no see! This king has been waiting here for a long time. "On the city wall, it was not Xiao Ta Buyan and other kings and generals of Western Liao who appeared, but Zhao Shuo, the king of Song.

"Zhao Shuo?" Mu Tuo's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe it. The latest news, that is, the news he didn't believe, still said that Zhao Shuo's army was thirty miles away? At this time, Zhao Shuo was already in Gaochang City. How is this possible?
