Yelu Xiuge made up his mind, and immediately returned to his own position from the empty space in front of the army, and ordered his own soldiers to find Yelu Xian, Yelu Sha, Xiao Buali and other leading generals, and glanced around with a cold and serious face, and saw that all the generals were a little unclear, so he emphasized again.

"Did you all see that? In recent years, the Great Zhou Dynasty has captured the land of Hehuang, and the towns along the border are equipped with a large number of good horses with meanders, and their combat power has been comparable to that of our Great Liao Elite Cavalry, if they are allowed to sit on a large scale, it is a huge threat to our Great Liao's southwest, therefore, our army has come, and must go all out, even if it cannot seize the land of Shuofang, it must also completely annihilate these two elite cavalry. ”

"This ...... Lang Jun is exaggerating, the equestrian skills of the Zhou army are average, but they rely on the advantages of the armor, how can they be compared with the Great Liao Jingcai. Xiao Yila lost the first move, and when he gets used to it, he will definitely be able to turn the tide of the battle. "Yerusha is the same age as Yelu Hugo, Yelu Xianzhen and others, and he is only in his twenties, but he is as bold and brave as he looks, but his mind is not so detailed, and he doesn't think so at the moment.

"Do you see that too?" Yelu Hugo's eyes widened, and he turned his head to look at Yelu Xuan, Xiao Buali and the others.

"Lang Jun has a life, we should fight to the death, but I can't think of such a long-term thing." Xiao Buali is from the Xi people of the Liao Kingdom, and he is obviously just a martial artist.

Yelu oblique, the word Han Yin, his grandfather Yelu is the brother of Abaoji, has a very high status in the royal family, and is generous and gentle, more talented, but there is nothing special among the many magnates in Shangjing, or in recent years, he has pacified the rebellion of the Wugulie tribe in the northwest Jinshan area with Yelu Hugo, which has been valued by Yelu Wuqing. At this time, he didn't speak, but he smiled and nodded.

"Lang Jun actually has two choices, either to fight to the death with the Zhou army's infantry here, or to surrender to Wuyuan and hold on, as long as Xijing Dalang Jun Nerugon arrives, our army is strong, and we can attack Lingzhou again at any time."

If according to common sense, Yelu is right, but he is a few years younger than himself, and he has lived in Beijing for a long time and does not know much about the local people's conditions, the territory of Liao is vast, but it is actually a mixture of half-agricultural and semi-pastoral tribal alliances, and the rich land is mainly concentrated in Linhuangfu, Youzhou, and Liaodong, and Datongfu is much worse here, and the elite soldiers of the Khitan headquarters want to suppress the black-headed Tatars and white-headed Tatars in the north of Yinshan.

Therefore, although Yelu Tart Lie promised that Li Yiyin would personally go out to help, it would not exceed 20,000 cavalry at most, and it would not be the Khitan headquarters, and it was very likely that the Tatar soldiers from the north of the mountain would be transferred to the south, so as to reduce its young and strong population through war and achieve a more stable ruling purpose.

"There is no need to be so troublesome, if you surrender the five plains, won't you be besieged by the Zhou army...... Everyone, go down and prepare, Han Yin will lead 10,000 horsemen to battle! Jeruhugo waved his hand impatiently and ordered categorically.

Yelu sat on the back of the horse and bowed, then turned to beat the horse and return to the team to give the order, and transferred two thousand elite horsemen as the front army, and the eight thousand horsemen behind him were divided into two teams, left and right, and followed the front army in a zigzag formation of three conical arrows. Because there are too many horse teams, it is very laborious to mobilize, and it is far from being possible to complete a cavalry of several thousand people in an instant.

After this period of delay, Xiao Yila's troops on the battlefield under the gentle slope lost troops and lost their troops, and they could no longer support it. As soon as the array was completed, Yelu gave an order, and the herald behind him puffed out his cheeks and blew the horn desperately, and the Liao army's ten thousand cavalry began to accelerate.

Almost at the same time, the whimpering horn of the Xia Sui army in the south also sounded, and Li Guangrui opened the way with 500 iron harriers, and the elite 3,000 cavalry of the Li family was formed as the front army, while the 7,000 cavalry town army in the back was slightly inferior in combat strength, and only two formations were formed with the front army.

As soon as the Xia and Liao coalition forces moved, they were in the infantry formation three or four miles away, Zhang Yue immediately found out, and deduced their intentions, and then ordered Gao Changhai and Du Yanhui, the main generals of the left Ji Ma Army in the north, and Shi Yanchao and Shen Banruo in the south to the right, so that their whole army could be dispatched and be sure to drag the enemy army a little bit of attrition.

12,000 to 15,000, when the strength of the horse army and the enemy army is about the same, Zhang Yue is still very confident, so he fights with the enemy army and slowly hangs them out to attack with all his strength, so that the infantry army can be put into battle, otherwise it will be passive.

The grain in the northwest is not high, and the horse army that has too much training cannot afford to be injured, and the political risk is difficult to bear, so although Zhang Yue let the towns of Hehuang expand some horse army, it is still mainly an infantry army, and the ratio of horse infantry is generally three to seven. Horse-drawn carts are used to transport grain, grass and baggage, while mule and horse teams carry less load and consume more grain.

The horses of the Xia and Liao coalition armies were carrying the wind and thunder, rolling down from the gentle slope like a tidal wave, rushing straight to the north and south, and on the battlefield located two or three miles outside the Zhou army's infantry formation, the two warring sides fled far away in order to avoid being trampled by the main horse team, and immediately fought in one place, rushing back and forth.

The previous battle made the battlefield dusty, covering a place full of corpses of men and horses, but the horse teams of the two sides followed closely behind, and rushed to kill and trample on the battlefield, and the wind near dusk was cold and biting, but no one cared about it.

The north of the Zhou army is the northwest assault cavalry created by Zhang Yue for several years of painstaking management, and the sophisticated equipment makes up for the lack of equestrian riding and archery, and is evenly matched with the Liao army. On the right side of the south, there are 7,000 cavalry of the Baiting Army and the Shenwu Army, plus 5,000 cavalry of Shi Yanchao's Si Tie Cavalry in front of the palace, which is actually slightly stronger than the Xia Sui Army.

Half an hour passed, and the Zuoji battlefield was as central as the previous battle, and the situation was not clear. But in the face of Li Guangrui's "Iron Harrier", the 3,500 cavalry of the Shenwu Army suffered a big loss in front, which was all iron-clad heavy cavalry, and the horizontal echelons were connected by iron chains thick as children's fingers, except for the armor cone that made it lose the front row, but it was almost directly broken through after the battle.

Shi Yanchao, who was in the middle and rear, was also caught off guard, and the five thousand iron cavalry were also cut in half, which made Shi Yanchao furious, fierce, and led three hundred personal soldiers to break away from the brigade and make a sharp turn, leaving the main force and the Shenwu army to continue to fight with the Xia Sui army, and he actually led three hundred horsemen to the south for a while, stopping the more than 2,000 horsemen of Li Guangxin who rushed over, and completed a perfect interspersed cutting with Su Lun A bowl, Li Guangxin's department was tired after a long battle, and collapsed in one fell swoop.

Shi Yanchao did not chase and kill the encirclement and annihilation, turned around and killed back to the battlefield, caught up with the heavy cavalry with the advantage of high-speed maneuvering, and finally crippled it after throwing all the armor-piercing cones, but in this way, the Zhou army horse team was a bit leaderless, and each chased Xia Suijun to fight.

Shi Yanchao can only be regarded as an assault general, but obviously not good at controlling the overall command and dispatch of the joints, the array is divided into three horse teams, fortunately, the officers of each army are not bad, after the heavy cavalry is half solved and the sharp spirit disappears, it can still be divided but not dispersed, Shi Yanchao regrets every time he faces it, and the two armies of Su Lun Ah Bo and Wang Tinghan are fighting with Xia Suijun, so that the three armies have reached a coincidental tacit understanding, which makes Xia Suijun fall into a state of siege.
