Ask for collections, ask for recommendations-

The battle on the west bank of Jinyang Lake was fought until the afternoon before it slowly stopped.

The Tang army paid a total of nearly 7,000 foot soldiers and 3,000 cavalry to finally uproot the Khitan camp that leaned on this small river called Yeyu, pushed the battle line forward again for ten miles, and stopped before another Fen River called Xiyuchong crossed.

On the other side of the river, it is the main camp of the Khitan army, Hubeikou.

The most direct result of pulling out the Khitan camp on the edge of Yeyuyong was to eliminate nearly 5,000 Khitan cavalry and 500 Jin troops in total. This is a very remarkable record, the Tang army has never tried to eliminate 5,000 Khitan cavalry at once, and it has won on its own initiative to attack.

Of course, with the number of casualties of the Tang army itself almost twice as high as that of the Khitan army, this kind of victory can only be called a pyrrhic victory.

Not to mention, almost a thousand people in the Khitan army died directly in front of the chariot or under the spear of the "human butcher" Joseph, and were killed by this yellow-haired man alone!

In addition to inflicting heavy losses on the Khitan army, the Tang army under Gao Xingzhou also captured a large number of materials in the Yeyu camp that the Khitans did not have time to transport, including more than 3,000 old and young women.

The old and young are mainly the families of the Khitan army, and the women are mainly women who have been robbed from all over the world.

The disposal of the Tang army is also a common practice, all the old and young Khitans are killed, and the words of women, whether they are Khitan or of which nationality, are all taken over by the Tang army itself. No matter what, those meritorious soldiers also need prizes.

Although it was regarded as a major victory, the 20,000 infantry and 10,000 cavalry deployed on the left side of the Tang Army lost nearly one-third of their troops in total, and they also temporarily lost the motivation to continue advancing.

The 20,000 Tang Army infantry soldiers who also belonged to Gao Xingzhou and marched from the right side of Jinyang Lake were relatively smooth in terms of warfare.

They did not encounter the Khitan iron cavalry along the way, but simply defeated 3,000 Jin soldiers defending the river, and then advanced all the way, and finally joined up with the Tang army on the left, forming a confrontation on the south bank of the Xiyu River and the Khitan Tiger Beikou base camp on the north bank.

This can also be regarded as the ingenuity of Gao Xingzhou's leading troops.

Although it was said to be a general attack, it was still divided into two directions, forcing the Khitan and Jin armies to also divide their troops to block the attack, reducing the intensity of the battle.

As for Zhao Yanshou's army on the east bank of the main road of the Fen River, there was no battle at all, and they cowered like a devil entering the village, approaching Taiyuan City at a turtle speed from the east gate, and then stopped to dig a pit for defense, attacking the city is not like attacking the city, and defense is not like defense, and I don't know what Zhao Yanshou is thinking in his head.

On the Khitan army's side, more than 6,000 people were lost in the early stage in the hands of Zhao Ping, and later Zhang Jingda was defeated near Taiyuan and lost more than 1,000 people, and 2,000 people went into the mountains to fight in the grass valley and were killed by Zhao Ping's army, and 3,000 people were lost in the first battle of Mumahe, and 5,000 people were lost in the first battle today, plus 10,000 cavalry who were transferred to Xinzhou by Yelucha to ensure the retreat.

In fact, on the Taiyuan battlefield, there were only 7,000 Khitan troops left of the 50,000 southward!

Where does Yelu Deguang dare to fight again, these 7,000 people still have to protect more than 20,000 Khitan old and young people who went south with the army and a large number of slaves and women who plundered them! Although the Tang army on the opposite side suffered heavy losses, there were still tens of thousands of people there. This little strength on his side, plus tens of thousands of Jin troops, is really not enough to squander!

The decisive battle on the Taiyuan battlefield was only fought for one day, and it fell into a situation where the Tang army was unable to attack again, and the Khitan army did not dare to counterattack.

When the sky got dark, Taiyuan recruited General Gao Xingzhou on all sides, and under the protection of the personal soldiers who hugged him in front of him, he entered the Yeyuyong camp of the original Khitan army that had just been cleared.

It's not that Gao Xingzhou is bold enough to dare to build the camp in such a high position, he just came to cheer up his generals.

This is the original command post of the Khitan Army, and all the officers of the rank of General and Captain of the Tang Army are present.

Gao Xing gave an order on Monday, and the soldiers carried the wine and meat to the table, and after a simple leader's speech, everyone started eating and drinking.

"General Han played well today, come, do one!" Zuo Lang of the Tang Army's first regiment, Han Congfu, was the first to be named by Gao Xingzhou, and Han Lang was not polite, and without saying a word, he raised the wine jar and drank half of the jar down!

This ancient wine, the alcohol content is very low, probably just like today's beer, at that time the warriors drank wine with a wine jar to drink, only the sour literati would pretend to be elegant there with a small glass of glass.

Han Congfu drank a red face, and then handed over the wine jar in his hand and stuffed it into the hand of the fat Lang General of the second regiment.

"Lao Zhang is scared today, come, suppress the shock!"

"Scared! Lao Tzu personally beheaded five Khitans today! Lao Zhang was also arrogant, drank the remaining half jar of wine in one gulp, and then squinted his eyes and picked up the next jar of wine, and looked around.

"Hey, what about the yellow-haired man? Lao Zhang, I will take him a love today! ”

There was a commotion behind him, and the two lieutenants pushed the yellow-haired man in through the door.

It is said that this Pei Baoman has been cultivating since he was a child, and he does not get a drop of wine. It's just that after entering the Zhenwu Army, I suddenly found that all the previous rules and precepts were gone! So his true nature was revealed, eating a lot of meat and drinking wine, and He Daxian was a little distressed when he ate it!

Even if Nima is the god of war, where can you eat like this! One person has eaten twenty people! This guy used to grow up in a small Taoist temple from eating green vegetables and radishes, and I don't know how he survived, why didn't he starve to death and grew so much fat?

Since opening the meat restaurant in Zhenwu New Town, Pei Baoman couldn't control the smell of wine, knowing that this was a gathering of senior officers, his identity as a small soldier still sneaked to the door.

It's just that he is really tall, and the "sneaking" statement is not valid at all, and after being discovered by those captains, he grabbed him and pushed him in directly.

was pushed into the lobby by those captains with a smile, and when he raised his eyes and saw Gao Xingzhou sitting on the chairman's seat, Pei Baoman didn't dare to make a mistake, and hurriedly knelt down on one knee to salute Gao Dashuai. Lao Zhang of the Second Regiment of the Tang Army next to him had already rushed over, and a wine jar was stuffed into his arms.

"This strong man, don't talk nonsense, this jar, it, it's too fast! That's it? ”

"When you're done, take a sip."

Pei Baoman lewdly stretched out a radish sized index finger, and shyly licked his lips with his tongue.

Gao Xingzhou laughed and patted the armrest of the chair hard.

"Come on! Give this strong man ten jars of wine and ten catties of mutton! ”

The atmosphere is hot! Pei Bao was full of ten jars of wine in his hand, and he no longer yelled and drank it all in one gulp, but hooked up with those captains and generals to call him brothers, as if he was not a small soldier, but a general.

"This brother is mighty, I don't know what to call it?"

"The eldest brother is polite, the younger brother Pei Baoman, nicknamed the butcher of the world."

"That's a good call! Brother, you're in a big swing today! I don't know where my brother worked before? ”

"The younger brother is still a pro-soldier, he just joined the army, and he used to cultivate in the Taoist temple."

"Such a coincidence? Brother, I'm also a cultivator! But the all-true one? ”

"Yes, yes, is my brother also a Quanzhenpai? Great, my little brother thought I was the only one who cultivated the True School! ”

"Where, where, the Central Plains is full of true sects! Eight out of ten Taoist temples are all Quanzhen! Have you ever heard of Liu Zaiming in Youzhou? That's my senior brother, that's a good skill. We used to cultivate together in Youzhou, but I don't know where my brothers are cultivating? ”

"The little brother is coughing cough, this is not convenient to say, because in two days I will go undercover to Zhenwujun Zhao Ping, the emperor sent me to go undercover, if Zhao Ping has a bad heart one day, the little brother I will fall with a knife"

"Sent by the emperor? Undercover? "This all-true Zhonglang will probably feel that he has drunk too much." This uh, it's really too much to drink, what did my brother just say? I didn't hear anything. This, the eldest brother is anxious to urinate, and he is unaccompanied. ”

With that, he left in a hurry.

Another drunken lieutenant also came over.

"Come, brother, just help me block a lance for you today, save my life, be a brother's altar to you, do it!"

"It's done!" Pei Baoman was also full of pride, and happily accompanied this nameless captain with great looks for a while.

"By the way, what did my brother just say?"

"Oh, I said, I'm undercover!"

The nameless lieutenant was startled, and asked with a big tongue, "What's the matter?" ”

"Undercover, I said, I'm undercover, I'm an undercover agent sent by the emperor!"

Pei Baoman laughed and proudly said his identity at the top of his voice.

Everyone in the room fell silent, and everyone looked at this drunken "undercover agent" in amazement.

It's been a busy day, and there's only one shift.
