War is like that, sometimes you simply can't beat the other side. In this case www.biquge.info the two sides still have to continue to fight, in order to wait for the opponent to show their flaws.

Victory in many wars is not based on the cleverness of the winning side, but on the mistakes of the opponent. Especially when the war has entered the stage of stalemate and the battle situation is extremely stalemate, in fact, the two sides continue to make mistakes, and the key is who can grasp the mistakes of the other side in time, so that the entire battle situation will change in an instant.

It's easy to say, but it's hard to do. On the battlefield, especially on the battlefield where communication is basically transmitted manually, opportunities may not be grasped in a timely and accurate manner. The Liao people have an absolute advantage in speed, and they can mobilize troops in the shortest possible time to fill the gaps that need to be filled.

Li Wei had just seen a gap in the other side, and as long as he could rush through, he would be able to join up with another Song army next to him, so that they would have enough ability to surround the fourth lost camp.

The five camps lost during the day were taken down during the sneak attack, and one was also fought down after a fierce battle, but just like the sneak attack of the Liao people, when the opponent reacted, the sneak attack turned into a melee, and the progress became slower and slower, and both sides had to go through a bloody battle back and forth in order to get even an inch of land.

When the phalanx of the two Song armies wanted to lean together and cut off the connection between the Liao cavalry outside the fourth barracks and the Liao defenders in the city, the Liao people sent a frantic charge, and Li Wei and they did not get close to it twice.

There was a squad of Song troops retreating a little slower, more than 100 people were surrounded by the army of the Liao people in that open land, and the crossbow arrows in their hands were just exhausted at this time, facing the Liao cavalry swarming around, the head of the Song army, shouted: "Brothers, there is only death, why am I afraid?" Kill! ”

The soldiers of the Song Dynasty don't want any formation, there are no bows and crossbows, what formation do you talk about in front of more than 100 people? I saw them holding high their broadswords and hook and sickle spears, ignoring the rain of arrows shot by the Liao people, and meeting the countless war horses with their flesh and blood!

Nadu rushed to the front, and before he could rush in front of the Liao people, he was shot with five or six arrows on his body, and he fell to the ground in anger. The soldiers behind did not look at him at all and continued to rush up by stepping on his corpse.

Fierce hand-to-hand combat unfolded on the open ground, and the Song Dynasty soldiers pierced the oncoming knights with their hook and sickle spears, and used their shields to block the spears stabbed by the opponents, and the sharp whistling of steel grinding resounded.

The dull sound of flesh and blood piercing, as well as the angry scolding full of hatred, the shouts caused by severe pain, and the wails before death, made Song Jun's impact seem so tragic this time.

After the tragic battle, a soldier who was wounded and fell to the ground staggered to his feet, and saw that there were no more of his comrades around, and there were all the bright spearheads of those Liao people, and he bent down on the ground to look for his own weapons.

A Liao Chinese man said loudly: "Surrender!" We won't kill you! ”

The soldier turned a deaf ear, and when he found a spear, he threw it at the man who had persuaded him to surrender: "Ah! ”

The Liao people picked up the flying weapons with one shot, and a feather arrow next to them shot over, penetrating the chest of the Song army.

The first day of the war, the first night, passed in a fierce battle between the two sides.

When the sky was bright, both sides stopped their attacks at the same time, and each sent a team to collect the corpses of the soldiers on the battlefield, and also carried back the wounded who were hidden in the corpses.

The whole battlefield is staggered, and in general the form is not too good for both sides, and neither is it too bad. The opening of the Liao people was blocked by the Song army again, but they still occupied two military camps, which could be used as a fulcrum to attack the Song army at any time.

In a night of scuffle, the Song Dynasty made the Liao people suffer more than 11,000 losses at the cost of more than 8,000 casualties, and the exchange ratio between the two sides was 1 to 1.3.

The strength of the Liao people still has an absolute advantage, but this battle was carried out in the field, although the Song army used the camp to give great support to the troops fighting outside, but after all, the Song army fighting outside the city finally retreated by itself, and the Liao [***] team did not dare to go up to pursue at all.

From this point of view, the phalanx dominated by infantry in the field battle of the Song army achieved a record that had never been seen in the previous battle with the Liao [***] team.

The two sides are preparing for the next battle, which is destined to be even more tragic later, because the decisive factor in the outcome of the war may not be the two forces on the battlefield.

Ren Fu received a war report before dawn, and he had prepared for the Liao people when they came to the Song Dynasty, Ren Fu had several sets of plans in his hands, even including the worst case, that is, what to do after the Liao people broke through a certain military camp overnight.

When he heard that the Liao State was fighting against the Xin'an Army, he was a little worried: "Who is in command?" ”

The soldier who reported the message said, "It's General Xu Huaide." ”

Ren Fu breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, fortunately, I didn't beat this kid to death at the beginning." ”

His son Ren Jun said beside him: "Dad, let my son lead the troops to rescue Xin'an." ”

Ren Fu looked at his son, thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, I'll give you 20,000 horses, be sure to rush to the Xin'an army before today's fall." Remember to be fast, this is inevitably the vanguard of the Liao people, and his brigade may be coming soon! ”

Ren Jun was very happy: "Yes!" Father, don't worry. ”

Ren Fu hurriedly took out his big seal, first wrote a military order for Ren Jun to set off immediately, and then hurriedly wrote a letter to report the matter to Renzong. He also ordered several other military camps to be on strict alert, in case attacking the Xin'an military camp was just a plan of the Liao people to attack the west. At the same time, it was also announced to the local government that now that the people of Liao may have come, they must do a good job in advance, transfer women and children, organize squires, and try to ensure the safety of the people living here.

This time, Renzong issued a holy decree, and if the officials retired anywhere, if the people did not withdraw, all the local officials would be dismissed, and the head would be punished for dereliction of duty.

Dismissal, this is already a considerable punishment for the officials of the Song Dynasty, dismissal means that he will no longer be a scholar in the future, and the Fenglu who made people blush in that month will never have anything to do with him.

In other words, the identity, benefits, and self-esteem are gone, and there is no way to seal the shadow of his wife in the future. So Ren Fu is not worried that those officials will be the same as before, the Liao people have not come yet, so they will run away with a few aunts and wives.

In fact, you can't blame them before, the soldiers with knives are hiding, what do you let them do as literati?

Now Renzong said very clearly, anywhere, in any form, the people do not leave, and the officials cannot leave. If the officials do not leave, the army cannot be withdrawn.

Don't say that the Liao soldiers haven't come yet, or they have already been attacked, and the local officials must also hold on until the people who should be evacuated are almost gone.

Xin'an's county order has not gone now, the entire Xin'an has lost most of it, and the people are fleeing in a hurry, he moved his fat body with a group of fast catchers, concentrated all the carriages he could find in the county, blocked the official road, and shouted with a broken gong throat: "The old man and the child get on the bus!" Here's dry food, one bag per person, and everything else for me to put down! ”

The appearance of the county order and those who caught fast made the panicked crowd somewhat calmed down, although they didn't listen to the county order very much, some young and strong men often drilled into the carriage, and some people always wanted to take everything they could with them, but the situation of robbery and murder like before really did not appear.

There are also people from the government on other roads, waiting for county orders, clerks, and masters, who are basically sticking to it. Of course, there are also those officials who are desperate to ensure their own safety first when they are dealt with later.

Looking at the endless stream of people as if there was no end in sight, the sweat on the county commander's face fell like rain: "These untouchables who don't know what to do must be packing up at home!" ”

The team leader was also very anxious, and stepped forward and said: "My lord, this can't be done, where the military camp has been fought all night, and there is no news from Master Wei Zhuang, we can't stay here longer!" ”

The county commander took out the silk handkerchief in his arms and wiped it on his face: "In this way, this place will be handed over to the master, our soldiers will be divided into two routes, you take people back to the city and burn down all the houses in the city, I will see what they will clean up!" ”

When the head of the squad heard this, he thought that the Liao people would burn it anyway, so he nodded first: "Hey, what about you, my lord?" ”

The fat body of the county commander walked to a carriage next to him: "I'll go to Wei Qiang's place to have a look, I estimate that there are not many people in the city, if they can come out, they can leave." ”

The team leader hurriedly said: "Then you can bring more brothers, Lao Jiu, a few of you follow the county commander, remember, protect the safety of the county commander." ”

A few officials came over from the side, and Lao Jiu said: "Don't worry, as long as I am here, the county commander will be fine." ”

Whether this sentence is true or false I won't talk about him first, anyway, listening to it really made the county order comfortable, and he patted Lao Jiu on the shoulder: "The young man is good, if you can go over this time, I will let you be the head of the shift when I come back." ”

Lao Jiu was overjoyed, and before he had time to thank Lord Xie Zhixian, now the head of the team asked: "My lord, what about me?" ”

The magistrate was stunned for a moment, but his reaction was quite fast: "If Master Ben is promoted, I will take you with me." ”

The magistrate didn't know where Wei Qiang's situation was now, and he didn't know that he would change the situation there this time.

The sky was already bright, and Xiao Da had already seen that the gang in front of him was just a group of rabble, and they didn't have any advantage at all except for the large number of people. The weapons are not good, the combat effectiveness is not good, and the most important thing is that they are entrenched in different places one by one, and they seem to be distinct, and there is obviously no unified command.

This gave Xiao Da enough confidence to defeat these so-called rebel armies of the Song Dynasty.

Just when Xiao Da was about to make a move, the magistrate came.

Zhixian didn't know how to fight, and he never even thought that he would go to war one day. But he is the magistrate, he is a big banner, his identity is here to represent the imperial court, when he appeared here with those catchers, the landlords and squires who were originally distinct, did not need to be greeted, and they came over with their own people.

The more than 10,000 Song people who were originally scattered gathered together in an instant, Xiao Da, who was about to attack, was stunned, more than 10,000 people gathered together, no matter how poor their combat ability is, they are enough to rush by themselves for a while, and Wei Qiang behind him is not an easy person, he will inevitably contain himself in the attack, can he really kill these people smoothly?
