Chapter 41 Take Shizhou lightly, hell on earth

Chapter 41 takes Shizhou lightly, and there are no pop-up windows in hell on earth

The news that Liaozhou was captured by the Song army reached Han and Liao, Liu Jun was furious, and he said in his heart that since Liaozhou is now in the hands of the Song army, why not use the Liao soldiers to recover Liaozhou and induce the Khitan infantry cavalry to take Liaozhou.

Liu Jun, the lord of Han, was overjoyed, the corners of his mouth rose, and then he sent envoys to Shangjing again, and this time it seemed that he did not encounter any obstacles. Ten days and half a month later, the envoy successfully arrived in Shangjing.

And this time, when the Liao lord Yelujing heard that Liaozhou had been lost, he ordered to lead 60,000 cavalry and horsemen to the south to assist the Han State in recovering Liaozhou.

Khitan soldiers and horses mobilized soldiers and horses from all over the country, gathered in Nanjing City, and went south from now on. The person who led the troops was Yelu Tartlie, the southwest envoy, who was thick and wise, and had heavy responsibilities.

Since the Song army occupied the city of Liaozhou, the Song army hurriedly repaired the city wall to pacify the people in the city, and also announced Zhao Kuangyin's holy edict, exempting the people of Liaozhou from paying taxes for one year and reducing forced labor.

And Kaifeng City also received a good report from the Song army, but the ministers were worried that the Liao State had not moved for a long time, and it seemed that they had heard that the people sent by Liu Jun had been killed, and this time Liu Jun would definitely send people to ask for help from the Liao State.

Now only Zhao Dezhao knew who killed those people, and the last time was just to let the Song army easily capture Liaozhou, and at the same time, it also made Liu Jun suspicious and divided the Han and Liao countries. However, this time his purpose was to let the Khitan infantry cavalry horses go south and destroy them along with the Han army, which was indeed the case in history.

The Changchun Hall men and horses sent by Zhao Dezhao have been active in the north, and according to the old eight of Jinyang City, this time Liu Jun has sent the Jinyang army south to the battlefield in Liaozhou.

Zhao Kuangyin was worried that the Khitan soldiers and horses would go south, but if the Khitan soldiers and horses came, he would definitely let people go to meet them.

……

Outside Shizhou City, Cao Bin's army led light cavalry and sharp soldiers had successfully arrived outside Shizhou City, and they sent troops this time to raid and occupy Shizhou.

In the second half of the night, the cold wind was biting, the sky was extremely dark, Cao Bin's army was stationed outside the city, Cao Bin held a clairvoyant mirror in his hand from time to time to observe, but because the night was too dark, he didn't see anything, and he kept waiting for the good news in the city.

In the silent night, Shizhou Thorn Mansion was not quiet. In the room of Huang Thorn Shi, Thorn Shi was naked* with his back covered, and the concubine under him was catering, but he couldn't see anything clearly in the night, and after a while, Thorn Shi hugged the concubine and fell asleep.

Because the terrain of Shizhou is high and wide in the east, low and narrow in the west, and there are many mountains and rivers in the territory, there are not many troops deployed here.

At this moment, twenty people in the city began to wander around the city, and they were naturally the twenty sergeants and soldiers of Cao Bin's army who had disguised themselves and blended into the city before.

When the night is dark and the wind is high, it is indeed a time to kill. The twenty warriors changed into night suits and roamed through the streets, and their mission was to kill the city's guards without them knowing.

However, the task that was supposed to be a simple answer almost went wrong, but fortunately, another group of people secretly helped them at this time.

These twenty people were very happy, and the time was also three o'clock in the second half of the night, and Shizhou City was quiet at this moment, only the soldiers at the head of the city were still patrolling.

Twenty men quietly killed a few people, and then came to the city gates, opened them, and lowered the drawbridge.

Twenty people rushed up to the city tower, and at this moment there were only a few people on the city tower, indeed as Cao Bin scout reported, Shizhou City did not have many troops, and now all the troops of the Han State were transferred to Liaozhou and Luzhou North.

After clearing the enemy of the enemy, twenty men began to raise fire on the castle tower......

A few flickering fires flickered in the wind, and in the dark night sky they were visible to the naked eye.

"General Cao, there's a fire on the city tower." The scout said.

Cao Bin was still not at ease, so he immediately picked up the clairvoyant mirror in his hand and looked at it, weren't those people the same people he sent.

Cao Bin immediately ordered to lead the army to the west gate of Shizhou City.

As soon as Cao Bin's army entered the city, he could lead the army to the Assassin's Mansion, and the Assassin's Mansion was sleeping at the moment.

As soon as the door opened, Thorn Shi was awakened, looked impatiently a few times, and then saw a team of soldiers and horses appear in front of him, shouted, and then pushed the concubine next to him, and then became a prisoner.

The next day, the entire city of Shizhou was taken, and Cao Bin ordered that the people of the state should not be disturbed, and the residential city was as before.

When the people heard about it, they returned to Song.

Cao Bin has been busy sorting out the army left by the Han State in Shizhou City in the past few days, and at the same time, he has also left half of his troops stationed here, and sent fast horses to Tokyo to spread the news of the capture of Shizhou.

At this moment, the scout detective report, the Kaifeng announcement and the Liaozhou military newspaper all attacked Cao Bin's side, and Cao Bin immediately prepared troops and horses after reading it.

Two days later, Cao Bin personally led some other troops to Liaozhou City to support.

……

The Khitan soldiers and horses and Liu Jun's soldiers and horses were already on their way to Liaozhou, and in the south, the baggage and other materials ordered by Zhao Kuangyin to be dispatched were also transported to Liaozhou.

In late February, Cao Bin's side marched day and night, and soon arrived at Liaozhou City, and then half of the army was stationed outside the city with Li Jixun's army, and half entered Liaozhou City with Cao Bin.

At this moment, in the Liaozhou Thorn History Mansion, the marching sand table has been placed in the mansion.

"General Cao, you're here." Dang Jin and Cui Yan Jindao.

Cao Bin said: "Now that Shizhou has been taken, after Cao received the military report, after pacifying the people, he led half of the troops to support Liaozhou." ”

Cao Bin said again: "I don't know what the situation is now? ”

Dang Jin said: "According to the report of the scouts, the Khitans have led 60,000 soldiers and horses to Liaozhou City, and the leader is the southwest of Liaoguo to recruit Yelu Tartlie, this person is heavy and wise, and has heavy responsibilities. Not to be underestimated! This was a tough battle, but fortunately there was still a batch of military explosives in the treasury, and this time the capture of Liaozhou was thanks to this matter. ”

Cao Bin said: "That's true, I have seen the power of this thing in the ordnance supervisor, this thing is a thing invented by the craftsmen led by His Royal Highness the King of Wei at the beginning, this thing is very powerful, originally this time it was to dispatch a few cannons, but the official ordered, not to let this thing appear for the time being, that is, I am afraid that this thing will spread out, and the enemy country will explore this thing in my Great Song Dynasty." Therefore, when necessary, let the army temporarily use this thing for defense, and it must not be used unless it is absolutely necessary. You have to ambush explosives on the way to and from the Khitans, and then ignite them, which is estimated to be able to deter some Khitan soldiers. ”

Dang Jin immediately shouted: "Such a killer weapon, after the Khitan people have seen it this time, they must be scared." ”

Cao Bin said: "The killing weapon is a part, but after all, there are not many of them, but it's a pity, this time it was originally a feint to attack the Han State, that is, to let him not send troops to the south, and my Great Song Dynasty can smoothly send troops to Shu by then, but now the Khitans have also attracted them, and now it is really tricky to deal with the two countries in the north." This time, we still have to prepare for a tough battle. ”

Three days later, the soldiers and horses sent by Liu Jun and the 60,000 infantry soldiers and troops of the Liao State had already led the troops to arrive and were on a hill not far from Liaozhou.

Liaozhou here, the terrain is high in the west, north and east, low in the central and southern parts, and mainly mountainous. Cao Bin and others had already seen the enemy's every move with a clairvoyant mirror on the city tower, and at this time, the Khitan infantry and cavalry had already stepped into the scope of the gunpowder area, and there was also a Song army hidden on another hillside, and they were lurking here to ignite the gunpowder.

Seeing that their soldiers and horses had entered the circle, the Song army's latent forces immediately ignited several grenades and threw them into the distance.

With a loud roar, the dust flew, and under the blue sky and white sun, the Khitan people of Liao State inexplicably heard the sound of thunder, and then their own men and horses cried out in a stump wail.

Yelu Tart Lie was on the horse at the moment, but unfortunately he was hit by a *grenade* bullet and died on the spot, but he didn't expect the hero in the eyes of the Khitan people to die in the thunder at once.

"Recruit the envoyβ€”" The Khitans saw their general killed by a loud thunderbolt and hurriedly fell to their knees.

And after the cavalry was frightened because of the horses, they ran around, and the soldiers could not pull it back.

Some soldiers were lifted off their bodies by horses, not the worst, and some of Mashan's generals were directly trampled by horses.

That scene has always been a haze in the hearts of the Khitan people, and what Cao Bin and others saw in the Qianlijing was indeed terrifying.

The Khitan people saw this weapon for the first time, and they didn't know that it was an enemy ambush, but they thought it was a god descending to earth.

And at this moment, on the battlefield, the loud noise rose again, and the porcelain pieces and iron nails in the hand * grenade * bomb were like spraying water, coming from all directions, Rao is the Song army here, and there were also a few people who were hit by several iron nails because of improper use.

The Khitan soldiers and horses wailed and screamed......

In the blood mist and earth mist that was raised, the eyes were shrouded in flying sand and rocks, and the eyes could not see the surrounding scene, and the horses were scurrying around, and the people were also injured by the attack again......

It's hell......

The thunder returned......

Rise Again......

The crows flying in the sky were also mercilessly shattered......

The boulders were also torn apart, and the mountains and rivers changed color......

The wind is sluggish, and the strong man is sad......

……

Above the city tower, several generals of the Song Army were admiring purgatory, and even a few generals couldn't stand it.

Seeing this, Dang Jin was not as good as others, as long as it was blood, he was inexplicably excited, and he shouted: "General Cao, do you want to take advantage of the chaos to attack the Khitan troops." ”

"Forget it, I don't plan to invade the other party this time, it's just a feint to attack the northern border, so that all countries think that we are sending troops to attack the northern border this time, but we have provoked the Khitan cavalry to come, and this battle is to level the Shu State and contain the Han State and the Khitan soldiers and horses not to take advantage of the situation."

Dang Jin nodded and said nothing more.

Cao Bin looked into the distance with a clairvoyant mirror, and ...... there

After a few loud bangs, the dust finally fell to the ground, and in the smoke of gunpowder, the mountains were littered with the corpses of men and horses.

The severed limbs and blood were all over the land, vegetation, flowers and plants, and the surroundings were charred black, and the banners of the rebel army were still burning.

The surviving soldiers were in agony, and those who survived fled back the way they came.

After this explosion, there was not one Khitan soldier and horse in ten, and the death of Yelu Tart Lie in the southwest was shocked, and the remnants of the army returned on the way, and they encountered the soldiers and horses sent by Liu Junnan again.

The Han ** team was shocked and did not think that there was a huge thunder under the blue sky and white sun, so they ignored the persuasion of the Khitan soldiers and horses, and immediately led the army to the direction of Liaozhou City.

However, when passing through that place, the Han army was also stunned by such a tragic situation.

After the whole army endured vomiting, Chen soldiers were immediately under the city of Liaozhou, and at this time Cao Bin saw the Han army coming.

At this time, the imperial court edict came, and Zhao Kuangyin ordered Li Jixun to lead 60,000 troops with Luo Yanhuan, Guo Jin, Cao Bin and others to meet the battle.
