Ask for collections, ask for recommendations, ask for support

Well, we admit that sometimes storytellers have some personal feelings or preferences in their views on things because of various personal prejudices, so it is inevitable that the description of people and events will be biased. The bad habits of the Khitan people mentioned above are indeed like this in ordinary Khitan generals, but Yelu Chaqi is not such a person.

Throughout the rise of the Khitan family, the Yelu family actually played the most crucial role. Just like in Greek mythology, Zeus's family rebelled successfully, and almost all of the gods and Buddhas were Zeus's family and relatives of his family.

The Yelu family also has a reason, anyway, I don't know what's going on, most of the most capable people in the Khitan Kingdom are either surnamed Yelu or surnamed Xiao.

Who, then, is this Jerodzachel?

His father, Yelu Anduan, is the younger brother of Yelu Abaoji, the Khitan Taizu.

Yelu Anduan is a peaceful old man, and he is a rich and idler in the Khitan country, and there is nothing outstanding about it. Of the sons he bore to him, Jerodzachel was different.

Yelu Cha was smart and clever since he was a child, and he was taught by a stranger when he was a teenager, and he practiced a skill, and he was a rare top master of riding and archery in Khitan China.

I didn't expect that. Let's move on to his label.

Yelu Cha cut ranked fourth among the top ten Khitan heroes, second only to Yelu Li Hu, holding a handful of one hundred and twenty catties of gold and iron bones, after unfolding, it was a storm and clouds, ten thousand taels of gold, and the sky was full of golden mist. In a heads-up battle, basically no one will be able to go through three rounds under him.

When He Daxian saw this person, he must have turned around and left immediately, without the slightest nostalgia.

Isn't this nonsense? He Daxian fought with Yelu Ruan and Yelu Sacha, who were ranked ninth and tenth, and couldn't even catch a single trick from others, so he survived purely by cheating in immortal arts. Let him fight the fourth-ranked Jerodza? That's just playing lanterns in the pit and looking for death!

It's not over yet, in fact, the ability to ride is only one of them, and Jerodzachel's proudest ability is archery!

Among the top ten Khitan shooters, Yelu Cha ranks second! Even among the world's ranked archery masters, Jerodzachel is still second! The name of the second thousand-year-old, it's okay to tell jokes in everyone's circle of friends, but if this person stands in front of you and pulls up a big bow to aim at you, then it is not a smile that can save your life!

What is the concept of Khitan second place?

We all already know Xiao Luying, and Xiao Luying's ranking is tenth in Khitan. There is also the little general Naye Agum, and the Khitan is ranked ninth.

In the previous chapters, we also learned that there are two archery masters in the Central Plains, Jing Yanguang and An Chongrong, who are slightly more powerful than the two Khitan masters mentioned above, both holding ten-stone bows, and if you go to the Khitan country to rank, you can probably rank fifth or sixth.

Yelu Chacher also held a ten-stone bow, but he was taught by strangers since he was a child, and he learned strange martial arts.

A person like An Chongrong shoots a bullet like a sniper rifle with an arrow, which can collapse a tower from 300 meters away, but Yelu Chacha shoots an arrow, but it has its own mysterious power, not only is the strength three times heavier than An Chongrong's arrow, but it can also play a splashing effect!

When someone shoots an arrow, it's the trajectory of a bullet, but when Jerodcha shoots an arrow, that's the trajectory of a cannonball!

When an arrow is fired, with the center of the arrow as the center of the circle, everything within half a meter of the surrounding diameter will be destroyed by the Xuanfeng, creating a long passage with a diameter of about one meter! It is affectionately called "the cannon of the world" by the Khitan people.

Of course, such a rebellious ability will definitely not be unlimited. With Yelu Chacha's ability, he can only shoot one cannon a day at most, and at other times, the arrows he shoots are about the same as An Chongrong's arrows.

That's already awesome!

It's only one shot, but they reserve the right to shoot you at any time! It's like having a nuclear weapon, you don't have to fight it to be called a skill, and having this ability is a skill in itself!

Besides, although I don't usually shoot artillery, a conventional archery like a heavy sniper rifle like An Chongrong is not something that ordinary people can stop!

Therefore, a person like Yelu Cha cut was unwilling to bring 5,000 people but was willing to bring 1,000 people, hoping that when there were few soldiers, the battlefield would be more flexible.

In addition to his strong personal force, Yelu Cha is also very powerful in battlefield command and battlefield strategy, he doesn't like to push the rampage, but has read a lot of war books in the Central Plains, what 36 strategies, what Sun Tzu's Art of War, it's like a stream! You name a word, and he can tell you right away how many pages and lines it is on in The Art of War!

The generals who have led the troops to fight for a long time know that fighting a war is actually a momentum and time difference.

Just like fighting, it is not that whoever is bigger will win, only at the right time, do the right moves, and hit the opponent in the right place, and naturally win.

Yelu Chachim believed that if there were too many soldiers, there would be too much drag on the action, and many exquisite tactical actions would not be able to be executed.

Well, this master sometimes thinks too much, which we ordinary people can't understand.

When the Khitan army went straight to Taiyuan a month ago, it passed through Xinzhou, so the terrain around Xinzhou was also surveyed.

The Muma River in front of Xinzhou City is not too wide, hundreds of kilometers long, there are always a few shoals that can be crossed directly by horseback, and the location of these shoals has long been recorded by the Khitan army.

Yelu Chachai knew that there was a shoal about thirty miles downstream of the Muma River that could be crossed, so he waved his hand, and 5,000 Khitan cavalry rumbled along the riverside and drove eastward.

Cavalry has this advantage, and it is not necessary to find small boats and boats to cross the river, anyway, horses run fast, as long as they know where there are bridges or where there are shoals, twenty or thirty miles are not a problem at all.

As soon as they saw that the Khitan army was moving, several scouts on the other side of the river also ran frantically to the east to report to the Yizhou army that was walking to the east.

An hour later, the Khitan army of the brigade arrived at the shallow river crossing more than 30 miles away.

On the other side of the river is a small town called Jinchang.

The last time the Khitan army passed by, they had already swept around the vicinity, and at this time it was already sparsely populated, and there were basically no people who could survive the war. Those who were still alive either fled into Xinzhou City or into the mountains, and there was not a single resident in the entire town.

But now there are no inhabitants in the town, but there are a large number of military men.

These are the foot soldiers of the 8,000 Yizhou army who arrived ten minutes earlier than the Khitan army, and have already entered the town of Jinchang, with the uneven ground and dozens of dilapidated small bungalows in the town, a temporary infantry position is being established, and there are also 2,000 light cavalry waiting in the deserted fields behind the town.

To say that Zhao Dejun is not very good, but the Youzhou Army and the Yizhou Army can be regarded as the frontier guards defending the front line in the northern border of Hebei in the Later Tang Dynasty. Although the battle with the Khitans still won more and lost, they were able to hold the land for so many years and prevent the Khitans from further invading the south from the Youzhou line.

Therefore, when these Yizhou soldiers saw the Khitan army they knew from their old acquaintances, they did not get frightened before they could fight like other Tang troops, but built fortifications there as if they had nothing to do.

For these Yizhou soldiers, today is just a change of place to fight with these Khitans again!

If the Khitan people want to cross the river, they must fight with the Yizhou army guarding the town of Jinchang, and if the Yizhou army does not retreat, you don't want to go to Xinzhou.

Yelucha rode his horse and ran across the river, observed the Tang army on the opposite side closely, and also grinned.

Although the uniforms of the Tang army were similar, he also recognized these Yizhou soldiers and saw a few old faces.

No, Liu Zaiming, the commander of the northern camp of the Tang army, rode on a war horse with a smile and ran over on the other side of the river, greeting Yelu Chacha from a distance.

"Hello Lord Yelu, came to work so early?"

"Oh, Commander Liu, such a coincidence? Are you here today on a business trip? ”

"Yes, yes, the big boss made a phone call, where do you dare not leave. Went into the mountain overnight, and caught up with Lao Tzu's back pain, but fortunately, last night Xinzhou's Ding Thorn Shi found two Khitan girls to sleep, and today he recovered a little. ”

"Cut, you coward, find two Khitan girls to sleep, is it considered to win glory for the country? If you have the ability to take my arrow! ”

"Come less! Your human cannon can only be fired once a day, and if you don't wait to shoot at the Xinzhou City Gate? It's a waste to shoot me. ”

"Yes, then I'll give you a small cannon in the world, pay attention to it!"

After that, Yelu Cha put away his smile, pulled out the ten-stone bow hanging on the saddle, straightened his back, bent the bow and took the arrow, and shot at the smiling Liu Zaiming with an arrow across the river surface of more than 300 meters!
