Chapter Seventy-Three: The Battle of the Chai River, each according to his needs
In the north, since the rebellion of the chieftain of Murowei, Yinniji, the pro-army sent by Yelujing has never been able to hurt a single penny, and several envoys he sent to appease Murowei were killed one by one, and they did not let the other party surrender.
On this day, a warm and cool air floated on the Chai River [where the Heilongjiang River] was, and the tribe of the De Kuole tribe chased the grassland and migrated irregularly, and was stationed in the upper reaches of the Chai River at this moment.
And in the lower reaches of the Chai River, at this moment there is an army flowing through the water, quickly rushing towards the Murowei tribe, which seems to have bad intentions.
The black-clothed and black-armored cavalry led by Yang Zan roamed among the forests on the grassland. Yesterday, when Yang Yi was fetching water from the river twenty miles away from the Chai River, he suddenly heard a roar in his ears, and Yang Yi was excited to find that the Hai Dongqing that was handed over to the chief of Murowei, Yin Niji, appeared in the blue sky.
Yang Yi immediately reported the matter to Yang Zan, Hai Dongqing was only released from the cage at a very critical moment, and now in this situation, I am afraid that the Murowei tribe is in trouble.
Yang Zan immediately realized something, and he hurriedly gathered his black-clothed and black-armored cavalry and rushed towards the Murowei tribe.
The army that rushed towards the Murowe tribe was the army sent by Yelujing. Everyone in the Khitan people is a soldier, and here Yelu Jing is already like an angry lion, and he directly sent 10,000 elite soldiers here, wanting to destroy Yin Niji. Among these 18,000 troops, there are 5,000 palace guard cavalry in his personal guard, 5,000 tribal army infantry, 5,000 Jingzhou army and subordinate **, and 3,000 herding cavalry.
The general who led this army was the Khitan Yarix, and there was also an envoy to find the branch, this time the Khitans of the Liao State came prepared, but also because the Yin Niji rebellion failed to be pacified several times, which shook the tribes of the Liao State, Yelu Jing felt that if the Yin Niji rebellion was successful, other tribes would also follow Yin Niji and break away from the rule of the Liao State.
Yarix led 18,000 soldiers and horses, and quickly marched towards the tribal camp of the Great and Small Murwei, the empty grassland, in the morning sun, the grassland and the forest near the Chai River faintly vibrate.
Inniji sent a small number of tribal shepherds every day, constantly roaming around, just to prevent accidents, but it is clear that today these herdsmen met the elite led by Yarix, and these tribal herdsmen unfortunately became ghosts, and the few who escaped also staggered to the tribe of the big and small murowe.
Yarix kept chasing after him for the first moment, and immediately accelerated his attack, believing that with his bravery and the elite forces under his command, he could make Innigi's tribal shepherds and those who were a little more brave and vulnerable.
Some of the escaped herdsmen successfully walked out of the Ghost Gate Pass and reported the news of the Khitan attack to Yinniji.
"Mohefu, the Khitans are here again......"
Yin Niji grabbed the hand of the shepherd and asked, "What, who is the leader this time?" How many troops are there? ”
The shepherd shuddered, "Yes...... Yalix, the palace tent army, the tribal army, the Jingzhou army and the subordinate ** were all dispatched, and there were probably more than 10,000 people, coming to Chaihe. ”
"More than 10,000 people!" Yin Niji felt a big headache, although he successfully defeated the Khitan soldiers and horses in the first few times, but unfortunately he only relied on Yang Zan's black-clothed and black-armored cavalry, and the large and small Murowei tribes also lost a lot of troops, and they have not yet recovered.
He frowned, quickly walked to the military tent where Hai Dongqing was raised, and immediately released Hai Dongqing in the cage, hoping that Hai Dongqing would bring the news to Yang Zan and them.
Hai Dongqing swished, rushed out of the cage of shackles, and flew towards Yang Zan and them.
At the same time, Yin Niji immediately put on his battle armor, drew his blade, and ordered the tribal shepherds of the Great and Small Muro Wei to wait for him. The large and small Murowei tribes began to reorganize their armies for war, and the infantry and cavalry of the tribal herdsmen were immediately scattered around the tribal tent, ready for a battle at any time.
The ground shook, and the voice was getting closer and closer, and the figure of more than 10,000 soldiers and horses led by Yarix had already appeared in Yinniji's mind.
Cold sweat had already flowed from Yinniji's face, and the cold sweat did not flow down as the wind blew on the grassland, and the faces of the rest of the herding infantry and the herding cavalry also flowed with sweat, and the tens of thousands of eyes on the grassland stared motionlessly at the sound of the horse's hooves vibrating.
The voice was closer, and in the distant sky, an army composed of cavalry troops appeared, and Yin Niji had faintly faintly seen the figures of the palace tent army, the tribal army, the Jingzhou army and the subordinate ** from the clothes of these troops.
The momentum and the number of people, not to mention the appearance of 20,000, the second Yelu Jing made a bloody investment, and directly killed the base camp of the big and small chambers.
At the sound of Yinniji's order, all the shepherds took up their weapons, and the old and weak women and children of the battalions also held the blackened iron pot with the missing corners of the weapons in their hands in case of accidents.
Eighteen thousand men and horses had already led eighteen thousand men and horses to the five hundred paces of the camp of the Great and Small Chambers, and looked at Innigi.
At this time, he sent an envoy to Xun Zhili to get off his horse, walked in front of Yin Niji, and reprimanded: "Yin Niji, you have rebelled several times, but my Great Liao Majesty has always planned to surrender the Great and Small Chambers, why have you rebelled again and again, and after the defeat of your previous Mohefu, your tribe has also become one of the eighteen tribes of my Taizu."
Yin Niji roared loudly: "Khitan dog, in the past few years, our cattle and sheep have been offered to the Liao Lord, we just want to have more cattle and sheep, but after Yelu Jing took the throne, he broke the rules of the grassland and killed everywhere, except for drinking, it was murder." All the tribes on my prairie believe in force, whoever is strong is the Khan, why does Yelu Jing, a brutal man, rule the grassland! ”
Yarix said: "Xunzhili, don't talk nonsense with him, he is right, whoever is strong is the Khan." My Great Liao Khitan warriors are skillful and brave in battle, just like a sharp sword, this time let the soldiers and horses of all ethnic groups under the command of our Khitan tribe step on the big and small chambers. ”
Yarix's men and horses "stepped on the big and small chambers, and stepped on the big and small chambers." ”
"Kill all the Khitan dogs-" Yin Niji immediately ordered to charge, the cavalry on the right, and the infantry on the left began to move.
Yarix immediately ordered his men and horses to rush forward, and he drew his broadsword, instigated him to sit down on the white horse, and began to charge among the soldiers.
The two armies had already fought each other in the dark, and the ground was covered with the corpses of both armies, all in all, what Inniji had expected had happened, his side had suffered heavy losses, while the other side of the army Yarix quietly waited for the moment, waiting for the other side to be almost outnumbered, and then rushed over.
Yin Niji has been wounded, his arms and back are already bloody, and the soldiers of the Yin Niji tribe have been killed and injured countless times, and the corpses all over the ground have attracted goshawk vultures in the sky.
Inniji turned his head, and suddenly a large bird flew in the air.
"Hai Dongqing, Hai Dongqing is here." With Yin Niji's shout, the people and horses on Yin Niji's side on the entire battlefield seemed to be shining in a desperate place, flying with Hai Dongqing's circle.
Not far away, the sound of cavalry sounded on the grassland, and the earth shook even more in an instant, and Yarix didn't know why, there was a fear in his heart.
"It's not good—" Alex shouted, but the warriors around him were already red-eyed, and they didn't know that danger was coming.
Yang Zan's black-clothed and black-armored cavalry had reached a high hill in the blink of an eye, and Yang Zan came with some gunpowder this time, so he was naturally fearless.
From the clairvoyant mirror, it can be seen that Yarix's side suppressed the men and horses of Yinniji's side, and another team from the Chai River Valley also joined Yang Zan's team.
The chief of the De Pul tribe, Usi, led the tribal herdsmen in the upper reaches of the Chai River to join Yang Zan's soldiers and horses. The De Rou tribe, which chased the steppe and migrated irregularly, was now stationed in the upper reaches of the Chai River, and in the place where the chief learned that Yarix had brazenly sent troops to garrison the Murwei tribe, the De Rou tribe also sent some soldiers and horses to aid Innigi.
The chief of the Dekule tribe had already secretly received some salt and iron from Yang Zan's men, as well as weapons obsolete from the Song state, which were transported by caravans. Yang Zan provided them with grain and baggage, and the Debaole Department was naturally grateful, and this time the troops were also sent out to be grateful.
In the lower reaches of the Chai River, although Yarix felt bad, the balance of victory had already shifted to the side of the warriors of the Great Liao, and the big and small chambers were just fish on the chopping board.
Yang Zan led the cavalry, and the chief of the Debaole Department, Wusi, quickly arrived at the lower reaches of the Chai River with 6,000 herdsmen and 1,000 herdsmen and 1,000 cavalry.
Yarix suddenly felt that there were men and horses in all directions, and the black-clothed and black-armored cavalry gave the naturally brave Daliao warriors a shocking feeling, and the battlefield was dusty and fell one by one......
Yarix turned his head, and a group of other shepherds also joined the battle, and this person was Uss of the De Pul Department, "Us, you traitor to Daliao, actually sent troops to help Yinniji. ”
"I believe in force, whoever wins is the king, how Da Liao treats me, how they treat me, as long as it is for the benefit of my De Kule department, I will help whom." Wu Si instigated the war horse, he had already been defeated by Yariks, and it was his honor to have a strong team of Khitan warriors in Daliao, and to defeat the myth of Yarix, it was like sticking a knife in the chest of the Khitans, which was something he was happy to do.
The two sides were fighting, and Yarix's side was exhausted, and his own warriors fell one by one in front of him, and his heart was dripping blood.
To Yang Zan's surprise, he did not use gunpowder.
…… After the first battle of Chaihe, there were not many Yarix men and horses left, most of the soldiers of the Liben cavalry were killed, and the combat effectiveness of the Jingzhou army and his subordinates was slightly insufficient, some of the soldiers and horses fled, Yarix looked up to the sky and roared, but how could the warriors of Da Liao dare to be so inferior, he was still fighting, until he had large and small wounds on his body...... Yarix's knife fell to the ground, and he was captured alive, and he fell to his knees in front of Inniji, roaring like a lost dog.
Yin Niji smiled bitterly and walked, he was also wounded, and was supported by a shepherd soldier below, and came to Yarix, Yin Niji saw that Yarix was captured, and smiled so much that the wound didn't hurt, "Yariks, are you Khitans capable of this, hahaha——"
Yarix was controlled by the soldiers on the left and right, and as soon as the soldier raised his leg, Yarix fell to his knees on the ground, and he looked like he was at home, and roared: "The Han people have a saying, you can kill a soldier and not be humiliated, you should kill me." ”
"Kill you, save your life first."
Yin Niji smiled and was helped back to the camp, he saw Yang Zan, and immediately said: "Thank you for your help, if it weren't for your nobles, I'm afraid Yin Niji would be a dead man today." ”
A young general who knew the original Chinese dialect standing next to Yin Niji told Yang Zan what Yin Niji said.
Yang Zan's face was very calm, and the half of the ghost mask was on his face, but there was not much turmoil, "Mo Hefu doesn't have to be like this, my young master and Mo Hefu just take what they need, what we need is horses, and what Mo Hefu needs is salt, iron, grain, straw, armor and other baggage." ”
In a small military tent, Yang Zan and Yin Niji were in the military tent, planning things...... After everything was completed, Yang Zan led the black-clothed and black-armored cavalry, left the large and small chamber Wei tribes, and marched towards Liaodong.
