Eight hundred miles of expedited fast horses galloped into Tokyo one after another, and one by one the letters went straight to Zhang's desk;

In the change of Zhuozhou, Xiao Deguang, who was left behind in Zhuozhou of Liao, was killed, and Li Guangtong was killed in the Great Song Dynasty.

The Ansu army rebelled, the Zhijun He Sizong surrendered to the Maitreya Sect, and the judge Li Gefei was martyred.

Yang Yi led the ninety-eight cavalry to kill back, notified the border army to fight, and quelled the rebellion of the Maitreya Sect.

Yang Yi's 98 cavalry defeated 3,000 Liao troops and captured the enemy general Yeluren.

Xiao Dalin, the privy envoy of the Southern Court of Liao, raised 40,000 troops and besieged Ansu City, and the 2,000 men and horses of the Baoding army were defeated and more than 1,000 were captured.

Yang Yi went to the enemy camp alone, ordered Xiao Dalin to retire, reduce 100,000 yuan of coins every year, and release the captive soldiers and civilians of the Great Song Dynasty!

Xiao Dalin was angry, and then raised a large army to attack the city, Yang Yi led the Ansu army and people to fight back, 800 horsemen out of the city to defeat 9,000 enemies, annihilated more than 3,000 enemies, and then captured the Liao general Yeluren.

Every recital report to Tokyo, will set off a huge wave in the court, Song Liao has been in the army for a hundred years, and there is nothing to do, who expected that the smoke will rise in an instant, and the soldiers will fight, although Yang Yi's record is proud, but in exchange for not a piece of praise, on the contrary, the impeachment of him flew to Zhao Xu's desk like snowflakes.

First, Yang Yi opened border provocations and undermined the peace between Song and Liao;

Second, without the authorization of the imperial court, Yang Yi put forward harsh conditions to the Liao State, which angered the Liao State and led to the expansion of the war.

Third, Yang Yi, as the deputy envoy to Liao, overstepped his authority to mobilize the border army and support the troops for self-respect.

The old party believed that the peaceful environment they had painstakingly managed for nine years had been destroyed by Yang Yi, so they did everything they could to impeach him, and they wanted to kill him as soon as possible.

Even some people in the New Party disagreed with what Yang Yi had done, the Liao State was not the Western Xia, and it was easy to offend, and the Great Song Dynasty had an overall fear of the Liao State, and most people thought that the Liao State was invincible. A few small victories for Yang Yi did not mean anything, so there were also many in the New Party who opposed a war with Liao.

Zhao Xu looked at these impeachment notes against Yang Yi and was silent for a long time, and the facts once again proved that although he was weak, he had a strong and uncompromising heart!

After discussing with Zhang Dian and others, Yang Yi was crowned with the title of military festival envoy, and was given 100 gold and 1,000 silk horses. The imperial envoys Zhao Ji and Li Yue, and Zhang Dazhong, the left attendant of the Ministry of Works, were demoted out of the capital, and the three of them impeached Yang Yi fiercely.

In view of Yang Yi's proud achievements and excellent ability to make decisions on the spot, he recovered Li Weizhong, the squire of the military department who had been dispatched, and assigned Yang Yi Hebei to recruit envoys, control the Ansu, Guangxin, Baoding, Baoshun and other armies, and take full responsibility for the war and peace with the Liao State.

As soon as this edict came out, the whole country shook, and even Fan Chunren and others couldn't help but oppose it, but Zhao Xu's personality was extreme, he believed in a person, he could believe until death, he made up his mind, and the nine cows didn't want to pull it back, let alone have Zhang Dun's support.

This time Yang Yi's proud performance gave Zhang Yi a big surprise, he thought he knew enough about Yang Yi, but now it seems that Yang Yi's ability is far beyond his understanding;

Zhang Dian is a man who has led the army to fight, and his heart is very bright, peace is fought!

How did Chengping come to be in the southwest for so many years? It's not that he killed all the way from the shore of Dongting Lake to the edge of Dali back then!

The Great Song Dynasty stopped giving Western Xia New Year's coins, and the Liao and Xia were integrated, and the Liao State would sooner or later put pressure on the Great Song Dynasty.

Now it just so happens that both sides are not prepared, and under Yang Yi's big victory, they must not back down.

If the Liao State can be frustrated first, so that it does not dare to act rashly, then the affairs of the northwest will be extremely beneficial to the Great Song Dynasty, and then how to control the Western Xia, the Liao State will not dare to be as arrogant as before.

As soon as he was authorized, he immediately transferred troops from various armies, selected his elite soldiers, got 20,000 soldiers, and immediately killed Ansu City. …,

Since the defeat a few days ago, the morale of the Liao army has been low, and I don't know how many 'thunderbolts' there are in Ansu, Xiao Dalin had to temporarily withdraw from Rongcheng and then transfer troops to Nanjing.

However, before he could transfer troops, Yang Yi instead led the army into the Liao realm first.

The gun array is like a forest, the flag is displayed, Yang Yi led the 20,000 army in only half a day, and the army was in Rongcheng, not that they all had flying hair, but Rongcheng was on the Song-Liao border, and it was only a few dozen miles away from Ansu.

Yang Yi can now control the total number of troops as much as 50,000, but the soldiers are not expensive, and Yang Yi will never bring those crooked melons and inferior dates to fill the number; Only the best are taken, the combat power only increases, not decreases, and it is easy to dispatch.

Yang Yi's legendary record has brought him unparalleled prestige, who is not convinced? You take 98 horsemen to capture the enemy's head in the 3,000 Liao army, and you take 800 to break 40,000.

There is nothing more convincing than a living record. The legendary champion and legendary record have brought 20,000 carefully selected soldiers extremely high morale.

Looking at the Song army who was eager to try outside the city, Xiao Dalin was a little dumbfounded, this is similar to the style of the Great Song Dynasty, which makes people unbelievable, hasn't the Great Song Dynasty always been unable to fight back and scold back? Why is there a Yang Yi, it seems that there are only 10,000 people in the city who dare to counterattack Daliao?

You must know that even if Ansu City is frustrated, you still have 40,000 horses in Rongcheng!

The Privy Counsellor of the Southern Court has been despised! Da Liao is despised!

Xiao Dalin is angry!

Not to mention anything else, if Yang Yi is allowed to besiege the city with 10,000 people, he will not be able to shrink back from his 40,000 people, no matter whether he wins or loses, he, the privy envoy of the Southern Yuan, will be able to do it.

Da Liao can't afford to lose this person!

The 40,000 Liao army soon drove out of the city, not only Xiao Dalin was angry, but the 40,000 Liao army was also angry. The strength is four to one, and he was bullied, and the pride of Da Liao was challenged! I don't have to say, kill!

The two sides began to arrange their troops in the open area outside the city, Yang Yi looked at his army formation that had shrunk a lot, and instructed Zhao Jin: "General Zhao, this first battle will be handed over to you, I won't say much else, kill him enough, and then...!" ”

Zhao Jin said with a wicked smile: "Yang Zhao can rest assured, the last general knows what to do, if he messes things up, the last general will come to see him!" ”

"You'd better bring Xiao Dalin's head to see you!"

"Xie Yang asks for auspicious words!"

After arranging the formation, Zhao Jin took the initiative to meet the attack with 8,000 men and horses, and Yang Yi took 2,000 cavalry to charge on the right side.

The dull sound of footsteps continued to move forward, and the rumbling war drums shook the earth and made people's ear drums hurt, and at this moment, tens of thousands of cavalry of the Liao army rushed out, pressing on the Song army with overwhelming smoke and dust.

The Song army immediately stopped, and the long horse-repellent gun in front of him slammed to the ground, the tip of the gun pointed far away, and the forest stood in the forest.

Two hundred and eighty steps, hum!

The Song army's divine arm bow was the first to attack, the buzzing bowstring sounded together, and the powerful arrows in the sky were coming like a locust plague, covering the sky and shooting towards the Liao army!

The war horses of the Liao army charged fell to the ground, with a roaring sound and endless screams, and the soldiers who fell to the ground were instantly trampled into pulp by their companions behind them, turning into the best fertilizer for the spring grass in the coming year.

The Song army fought, the archers usually accounted for more than sixty percent, and the killing and wounding of the arrow rain often became the key to resisting the cavalry charge, and the Liao army rushed close at the risk of huge casualties, and at the same time returned fire with bows and arrows, wave after wave rushed towards the Song army's large array;

The huge impact force of the war horse can bend and break the long horse rejection gun, this impact is at the cost of life, and the Liao army that hits directly into it is often strung on the horse rejection gun and becomes a human flesh skewer, which is extremely tragic.

Xiao Dalin knew that the same forces could not take advantage, the first wave of men and horses had not yet passed, and the second wave sent another 10,000 and rushed against the Song army from the left flank.

The battle soon became white-hot, the shouts of killing from both sides pierced the sky, and countless people lost their lives every moment, and the blood soaked in the yellow dust, making it slippery and difficult to stand. …,

Xiao Dalin sent out a third wave, this time it was infantry, and rushed to the right of the Song army, hoping to level the Song army's large array with one blow.

When Yang Yi saw this situation, he rushed out with two thousand cavalry and killed the ten thousand infantry, Xiao Dalin had already guarded against him, and the four thousand cavalry led by the Liao general Ayedeli immediately greeted Yang Yi and soon strangled together.

Looking down from the sky, the yellow dust was rolling in a radius of several miles, the sound of killing shook the sky, the casualties on both sides were extremely heavy, the Song army carried it for half an hour, and finally couldn't bear it, first the infantry formation began to retreat backwards, the morale of the Liao army rose greatly, and the whole army covered up, and did not intend to let half of the Song army escape.

Zhao Jin was also very nervous, the Song army had lost more than thirty percent, for the general army, this was close to the edge of collapse, he resolutely stood at the end, and commanded the soldiers to throw things while retreating.

When the Liao army saw that they 'lost their armor and abandoned their armor', they chased them even more desperately, but when they got closer, they found that what the Song army had lost was not a helmet, let alone an armor, but an iron thistle.

Like laying eggs, one by one the sharp thistles were thrown all over the ground, many Liao troops avoided them, and the war horses fell to the ground with a sad cry when they stepped on the thistles, and they hated so much that they scolded.

Scolding and scolding, except for careful dodging, they are helpless.

Yang Yi took two thousand cavalry to block the infantry side, and he was also killing and retreating, and the casualties were also very large, this was a tough battle, there was almost no tricks, Yang Yi himself was stabbed in the arm, fortunately it was only a skin injury, but it still made him look like a bloody man.

The Liao army chased out a few miles, and had just killed Yi Shui, and suddenly found that the Song army did not retreat, but turned around and killed back;

At this moment, war drums were sounding on both sides of the slope at the same time, and hundreds of large fireballs with a diameter of one person high, with raging flames and billowing black smoke rolled down the slope, these fireballs were simple to make, made of bamboo chips to form a net-like ball, and when used, stuffed with hay rags, and then poured grease and other flammable materials, and ignited.

Hundreds of fireballs rolled into the Liao army's formation, the raging fire was connected into a piece, burning the Liao army in chaos, and a bomb would occasionally be placed in the middle of the fireball, which exploded fiercely in the middle of the Liao army, sparks splashed everywhere, and shrapnel flew out!

Many of the clothes on the Liao army were ignited, became burning people, crying and screaming, rolling around, the amazing scene scared the Liao army into a soul, collapsed, and the Song army on the top of the slope shot waves of powerful arrows, like a downpour, harvesting the lives of the Liao army piece by piece.

The war horse, which was frightened by the explosion of the firelight, was not controlled at all, and turned around and ran, causing self-trampling and casualties to the Liao army.

Kill! Kill! Kill!

Before the smoke of the explosion dissipated, the Song army on the slope rushed down like a tiger from the mountain, immediately divided the Liao army into several sections, and slashed and killed wantonly, the Liao army could no longer raise effective resistance, and it turned into a great rout, and countless Liao army wolves rushed to the plate, and the scene was indescribable in words.

Yang Yi led two thousand cavalry, taking advantage of the chaos to approach Xiao Dalin's handsome banner, slashing and killing all the way, as if entering a no-man's land!

"Kill! Capture Xiao Dalin alive, and reward a thousand gold! ”

Before Yang Yi could rush to arrive, for some reason, Xiao Dalin's handsome flag suddenly fell, and the retreating Liao army was everywhere, losing the guidance of the big banner, Yang Yi led people to rush to the original location of the handsome banner, except for the handsome flag that fell to the ground, there was no trace of Xiao Dalin, Yang Yi gritted his teeth with hatred!

"Kill! Xiao Dalin is dead! Kill! Yang Yi was so angry that he spread rumors loudly, and thousands of soldiers behind him immediately shouted:

Xiao Dalin is dead!

Xiao Dalin is dead!

……

The Liao army fled like an avalanche, and although the water was shallow after winter, it was enough to slow down the speed of the war horses, and countless Liao troops could not escape across the river and became prisoners of the Song army.

As the so-called defeat is like a mountain, not to mention 40,000 against 20,000 in this battle, even if it is 400,000 against 20,000, there is only a question of how much you can escape.

No one knows how Xiao Dalin's handsome flag fell suddenly, maybe the guy holding the flag thought that the handsome flag was too heavy and ran away lightly, or maybe Xiao Dalin saw the opportunity quickly and ordered to abandon the flag and flee.

But no matter what, even if Xiao Dalin's handsome banner does not fall, it will not be able to save the great rout of the Liao army, and will only guide Yang Yi to Xiao Dalin's direction.

In this battle, nearly 10,000 enemies were annihilated, 14,000 were captured, and less than 20,000 Liao troops fled back.
