Chapter 463: The Wind Rises (44)

In other words, Wanyan Zonghan's Left Route Army lost more than 12,000 people in one day!

This includes eleven Meng'an, and more than 100 Mouke! Among them, three Meng'an and more than twenty Mouke were killed by Wanyan Zonghan and the Overseer team. In the eyes of those Jurchen aristocrats, Wanyan Zonghan was already crazy.

No matter how cold and ruthless the Jurchens are like beasts, there are times when they can't withstand the huge pressure. Deserters will be there in every unit.

In a day's fierce battle, the number of Jurchen soldiers who were damaged in the battle was at least 7,000 or more. This number is even more than the total number of all the battle losses since Yan Zonghan went south!

Just one day! Whenever a large number of brave soldiers gathered under the wall and attached to the wall, a large number of eternal flames would be thrown down from the city wall to light those warriors into a personal torch! It was a terrible death.

The entire Yingzhou City was surrounded by dense corpses at this moment. At the base of the city walls, the corpses were stacked on top of each other, half a man high. And that's not even counting those that have long been burned to ashes by the continuous fires.

The Left Route Army of the Jin State could no longer fight at this moment, and their military morale had dropped to the lowest point after a whole day of suffering. The only thought they have now is to return to Yunzhou City as much as possible! It's best to go straight back to Shangjing!

When the morale of an army is gone, the team will not be able to take it. Even the reincarnation of Zhuge Wuhou could not solve the dilemma in front of this army.

The Jin army that Wanyan Zonghan brought to the city of Yingzhou gathered a total of less than 40,000 horses. Except for the part that Yan Lou took away, the rest was lost by more than half within this day.

Not to mention the classical army of the Cold Weapon Era, even if the most combat-effective American army in modern time and space fights like this, it will definitely lose its combat effectiveness, and the whole army will go to Japan to rest and recuperate.

The current situation of this army is not to mention that it is Wanyan Zonghan, even if Wanyan Aguda jumps out of the ground to take over the command. These Jin troops who were frightened by the fire did not dare to stay in this ghost dragon!

When the Jurchens first started their army, they didn't care about the lives of other people, nor did they care about the lives of their own. But. Now after seizing thousands of miles of rivers and mountains. Everyone has property, and they all have Haizhen and Haizhen in their own tents to serve, and they also begin to cherish their lives.

After getting it, I am even more afraid of losing.

As an excellent military commander, it is essential to be decisive when you are decisive. Even if he has already lost at the moment and is going to be a pants, Wanyan Zonghan can still force himself to calm down.

"Everybody's ready, let's go tonight. All that could not be taken away were burned, and all the wounded were left behind. Traveling lightly, the whole army went straight back to Yunzhou. Wanyan Zonghan sat in the big tent of the Chinese army, looking around. said with an indifferent expression.

The Jurchen nobles in the military tent were all speechless. Today's losses are simply too great. Many of the direct subordinates were almost wiped out, so could such a heavy loss pass so lightly? Without subordinates, how can they gain a foothold in the clan in the future!

Wanyan Zonghan certainly understood what they meant.

"A bunch of guys who don't have enough to do and more to lose!" Wanyan Zonghan thought angrily. What time is it now, still making your own little calculations, if you don't hurry up and run away, then no one will want to leave!

What does an army without morale want to do if it is still under the nose of the enemy? Waiting for the whole army to be wiped out? Now this army under the city of Yingzhou can no longer fight.

That victorious army didn't even have to attack, just pestering them to the death was enough to drag them until their whole army collapsed! If you don't go now, you won't be able to go in the future.

"I don't need to say too much about today's events, after the whole army returns to Yunzhou. A certain family will go to explain to the emperor. Wanyan Zonghan swept the many Jurchen nobles in the tent with indifferent eyes, and said in a cold voice, "The war is not over yet, and a certain family is still the commander of the Left Route Army at this time!" If you dare to disobey the yang and the yin, beware of the ruthlessness of the quick knife in the hands of a certain family! ”

Today, during the day, Yan Zonghan beheaded a number of Jurchen nobles. All of his subordinates are in danger.

At this moment, he said such words again, coupled with his frosty voice, which made the strange thoughts that had just risen in the hearts of the Jurchen nobles in the military tent all dissipate in an instant.

Wanyan Zonghan's tiger power is still there!

Of course, it is impossible for the movements of the Jin army to be hidden from Gao Yang. Except for the wounded and those who remained behind, the rest of the troops in Yingzhou City had already rested.

After a full meal and a full meal, you can go straight to sleep. Turning a blind eye to the Jin army, which had been marching overnight. Poor Kou Mo Chase is not suitable for now, but Gao Yang is not in a hurry.

The Jin army left in a hurry to survive, and now is not the best time to attack. The best time to do it is when they travel overnight until midnight.

The army in Yingzhou City attacked at twelve o'clock in the evening. Gao Yang had no interest in the Jin army camp that was still burning. He didn't care about the disabled soldiers of the Jin Army who were wailing sadly.

At this moment, Gao Yang's heart only has the matter of chasing the enemy army who fled into the desert.

The large camp that was ignited by the Jin army itself burned and burned, and when all that could be burned was burned out, it would be automatically extinguished.

The wounded soldiers who couldn't walk could not wait for the sun tomorrow and would die on their own. Yingzhou City will send a large number of people to clean up the battlefield tomorrow. The harvest here next year must be very good.

Wanyan Zonghan wanted to gather the troops as much as possible, even if he retreated, he had to be orderly. There must be pursuers in the back, and there must be interceptions in front. If you run blindly in a chaotic manner, the final outcome will be very tragic.

The so-called light travel means that you don't bring anything except valuables, weapons, armor, simple rations, water bladders, and horses!

The night is thick, and the night is dark and cloudy. Both the stars and the moon hid. This is not good news for the Jin army, which rushed overnight.

Yingzhou to Yunzhou City is only more than 200 miles, and there is also a dilapidated avenue in the middle, which should not be dangerous.

It's just that the rapid march in the thick of the night, coupled with those unknown enemy troops hiding in the shadows, made these Jin soldiers who were frightened by the siege battle during the day began to become suspicious.

Everyone wanted to flee back to Yunzhou City as much as possible, hiding inside the strong and thick city walls to lick their wounds.

The army, with its torches held aloft and pulling out long marches, had become a flock of frightened birds. Everyone was silent and looked depressed.

There may be a few coughs in the middle of the queue, which are the wounded soldiers who can still follow the brigade on horseback. All those who could not ride horses were left to die.

The queue dragged on, everyone looked listless, and even the flags were crooked. When have they seen such a fiasco in themselves?

Riding on a war horse, Wanyan Zonghan, who was surrounded by a large number of guards, had a cold gaze, an indifferent look on his face, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

I don't know how long the march lasted in the thick of the night, until the noise from the rear team broke the quiet night.

At the back of the brigade was a group of Bohai people. As vassals of the Jurchen army, they suffered heavy losses in today's siege battle. More than 3,000 Bohai people who followed Wanyan Zonghan to Yingzhou City are almost not one in ten!

The remaining hundreds of people were rightfully placed at the bottom of the list. This group of sergeants who were far away from home, fighting in distant foreign lands, finally began to fear and began to miss their homeland when they lost the battle and faced the threat of death.

At this moment, everyone has no fighting spirit, and even the distant sentinels around them are not very attentive.

In their opinion, even if they suffered a big defeat, there were still nearly 20,000 people in the army at this moment! The rogues in Yingzhou City died in the thousands, and they should be thankful that they could hold the city, how could they still have the courage to pursue at night?

Similarly, they couldn't understand Wanyan Zonghan's overnight expulsion at all, and they complained. There's no need for this at all, wouldn't it be better to rest all night at night and leave tomorrow? Why is there such a hurry. You must know that many of the wounded soldiers who were left behind were Bohai people.

They certainly can't understand what danger is already hanging over their heads! If they could understand this, they would not be the lackeys of the Jurchens.

When Gao Yang's army caught up with them, quietly eliminated the outposts, and quietly approached them under the cover of night, this crazy night was about to begin.

Those Bohai people who were unable to give up suddenly found that the surroundings of their team suddenly lit up. It's not the torches, it's not the moon that's out. Instead, thousands of rockets wrapped in tarpaulins were ignited!

A trumpet sounded, and in the frightened eyes of the soldiers of the Jin Kingdom, half of the sky lit up! Rockets with blazing flames roared through the dark night, enveloping the Bohai people in the last column of the Jin army.

Gao Yang's original plan was to use rockets to illuminate the enemy army, so that it would be easier to charge into battle at night. It's just that he didn't expect these rockets to have an unexpected effect.

Looking at the rain of arrows that flew like flying fire meteors, the Bohai people, who were struggling to escape from the sea of fire during the day, were reminded of the most terrifying memories in their minds. The fire of eternal karma, which is everywhere and burns everything in the world, has come again!

I don't know who collapsed first, but in short, the rain of arrows didn't kill many people, but let them stir up their own turmoil.

Hundreds of Bohai people frantically whipped their crotch horses, and scurried around in no direction. They shouted wildly loudly and loudly, and they didn't know what they meant. Under the light of the fire, those frightened faces were full of survival instincts!

These still alive Bohai people collapsed. They frantically whipped their crotch horses and rushed forward desperately, trying to escape from this place of death.

The nearly 1,000 Xi soldiers and horses marching in front of them who were preparing to bend their bows and arrows were instantly disrupted in formation. It was originally difficult to see anything clearly in the dark, and being so rushed by these Bohai people that the ridicule people fell into trouble.

Before they could react, a rain of arrows followed. The Xi people, who were disrupted, were also messed up in the night. (To be continued......)
