Song Guang couldn't hold his breath, sometimes it's like this, it's often not his opponent who defeats him, but the kind of ** in his heart. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Yelu Goulu's "good" performance in the past few days made Song Guang feel that the Liao people were simply vulnerable, and now the Liao people were ready to retreat, and if they went out to pursue themselves, they would definitely cause them more casualties.

It was at this time that the troops of the Chola Kingdom came. 20,000 men, 300 war elephants. Many Song Dynasty soldiers who had never had elephants were terrified of these guys, and Song Guang was even more determined to think when he saw this.

This battle may be his last performance, and Song Guang hopes that he can win more applause. Driven by this mentality, he ordered to attack at night and pursue those Liao people who were preparing to retreat.

At the same time, Chen Yuan was rushing to the western frontier, and he was accompanied by 50,000 Mongolian cavalry.

Na Muli walked side by side with Chen Yuan in high spirits, and he was also the reason why this battle must be fought, because in his opinion, as long as the Liao State perished and the Song Dynasty recovered the Central Plains, the outside of the Saiwai would be their Mongol.

At most, the Song Dynasty had a larger appetite, and it was impossible to eat it all without leaking at all.

"Master Ma, after winning this battle in Liao, we will be neighbors."

Chen Yuan smiled at him: "Touren, I believe we will get along very happily, you know, we Song people have always been very generous to our friends, not like the Liao State, we will only plunder things from you." ”

Mu Lihe nodded: "I know, don't worry, our Mongolian men are clearly divided between friends and jackals, without the help of your Song people, there would be no Mu Lihe today, so let's swear to Changshengtian, Mongolia and the Great Song Dynasty will always live in harmony, and any conflict between us cannot be resolved by means of war." This is not only one that I will obey, but that my children and grandchildren will follow. ”

Chen Yuan believed that what he said was true, and Mu Lihe would never have the slightest disrespect for the Great Song Dynasty, but who would dare to guarantee the affairs of his descendants?

If Tang Taizong knew that Yue Ben would cause so much harm to China in the future, he would definitely not let Yue himself go. It's like Chen Yuan has no intention of letting Mongolia go at all.

However, war may not be needed to solve the Mongol problem.

"The leader doesn't have to promise me anything, I believe that as long as we work together happily, those things will not happen. By the way, the head people, this time you only came with 50,000 people, and the Liao people have 400,000, maybe it's not easy to fight? ”

Chen Yuan was really a little uneasy about the 50,000 people who followed him. Because these people don't look like troops at all. It is said that there are 50,000 cavalry, but there are only more than 10,000 young and strong among them. The rest are some old people, women, children.

They lacked the necessary conditions for a force, had no logistical supplies, no intelligence sources, just a few fast horses roaming around the ranks, monitoring for the presence of enemies nearby.

They didn't even have a route for the march, each carrying a bag of dried meat, and just like that, they sang songs that Chen Yuan didn't understand at all.

At night, most of the ordinary Mongols were divided into small groups and camped wherever they went. They choose to light a small fire at dusk, when it is not dark and the light of the fire is not visible from close and the smoke screen is not visible from afar.

On fire, they quickly prepared the only hot meal of the day. After the meal, they did not hang out or sleep by the fire, but dispersed into smaller groups, groups of three or five, sleeping in hidden recesses scattered throughout the area.

At dawn the next day, we moved on.

They basically didn't know how to read, and the transmission of news was delivered manually, which made Chen Yuan feel that they didn't come out to fight at all, but moved. Therefore, Chen Yuan has no confidence in them.

Mu Lihe didn't hear the meaning behind the question: "Master Ma doesn't know, the price you gave this time is too high, I am reluctant to let too many tribes participate in this amount of money, besides, it's not good to have too many people." ”

Although Chen Yuan had great doubts about the way they marched, the Mongols were impeccable in speed, generally speaking, they slept for four hours a day, and spent the rest of the time marching, and they knew how to preserve the physical strength of their horses, whether they were fast or slow, and they could walk four hundred miles a night. If you march in a hurry, five or six hundred miles will not be a problem.

Having speed was enough for Chen Yuan, he knew that Sanguan was in danger now, and he had to rush over immediately and let these Mongols attack from behind Yelu Gollum in order to contain the Liao people's attack on Sanguan.

Song Guang's attack was a serious blow to the Liao people at the beginning.

This time, it was not only the Song army that participated in the attack, but also 20,000 reinforcements from the Zhuluo Kingdom and 300 war elephants.

These were all things that Yelu Gollum had not thought of at all, and before the two sides could make contact, the neighing of those war elephants made the war horses under the crotch of the Liao people panic.

When the three hundred behemoths rushed in front of the Liao people, the Liao soldiers were completely blind, and they didn't know how to fight with such a guy.

Occasionally, a few brave Liao warriors rushed up and wanted to stab this big guy to death with the spears in their hands. But he was either swept away by the nose of the war elephant, or killed by the soldiers of the Chola Kingdom who rode on the war elephant with that kind of extra-long spear.

On the first night, Yelu Ran made a fake come true, and was defeated by Song Guang, retreating for more than 40 miles in a row, and the retreat of the lure enemy almost turned into a real rout.

Jerynez Gollum was a genius, and he quickly figured out how to deal with the big guys. The soldiers were ordered to dig pits in the ground overnight, and dig those very large pits.

Early the next morning, the Song army, which had won the first battle, came again, and the Ah San volunteers volunteered to fight in the first place, following behind those war elephants and taking the lead in charging the Liao people. The general of the Zhu Luo Kingdom had already boasted about Haikou, saying that yesterday the enemy ran away because the battle time was too short, and he would definitely not let these Liao people go today.

At the beginning of the battle, the soldiers of the Liao State were still the same as yesterday, and they were about to collapse at the first touch. General Chola Guna himself rode a war elephant to the front.

As he was enjoying the killing, he suddenly heard a loud noise, and then the body of the war elephant sank violently, and one by one the huge elephants fell into the trap.

Jeryne's gollum trap is very well arranged. The disguise is very well done, and it is supported by some thumb-thick sticks. This weight can allow Liao soldiers and war horses to pass safely, but war elephants cannot.

Nearly half of the 300 war elephants were thrown into the pit in a blink of an eye, and although the pit was not very deep, the sharp iron spear heads inside pierced the soles of the war elephants, and the war elephants were unwilling to move forward no matter how the three drove them.

The retreating Liao people turned around and killed back, first using their cavalry and archery skills to drive away all the Asan who were following behind the war elephants, and then a group of cavalry surrounded them, frantically slashing at the war elephants and the cavalry on the war elephants who fell to the ground.

The fear disappeared as the more than 100 war elephants were killed, and the Liao people became crazy again. They rushed towards the war elephants who had not stepped into the trap, just as they had stormed the Song army's large array, two if one did not work, and three if two did not.

It turns out that when the war elephants of the Asan can no longer make their opponents afraid, it is they who are afraid. Originally, they still had more than 100 war elephants, and if they continued to rush forward, it was impossible to predict whether they would win or lose.

But when their general was shot dead by the Liao, they turned and ran, without the slightest will to resist.

The remaining hundred or so war elephants rushed back in a blink of an eye, Song Guang had already prepared a formation to meet the attack of the Liao people, but now this group of Ah San suddenly rushed over regardless of it, Song Guang didn't know how to deal with it at all.

Shoot? Just kidding, that's friendly forces!

People came from thousands of miles to help the Song Dynasty, if they ordered archery, don't say that those scholars would not let go of themselves afterwards, even Song Guang felt that it seemed a little too much in his heart.

After a little hesitation, the war elephant had already arrived in front of the Song army. The shield array of the Song army was ready to resist the Liao war horse, and suddenly such a behemoth came, and Shangguan had not yet given the order to shoot it, and those shield bearers immediately dodged to the side when they saw the elephant's pillar-like thick legs rushing towards them.

In this way, the Asan broke through the large array of the Song army, and more than 200,000 Liao iron horsemen swarmed in behind them.

Why did things turn out the way they did? Song Guang really didn't know. He made a lot of preparations when he came out to pursue, but those Ah San made all Song Guang's preparations wasted.

The Song army's most powerful bows and artillery had no chance to play at all, and they couldn't even meet the enemy in a complete formation. The three have done a great favor.

Song Guang didn't expect this result at all. His reaction was quite fast, on the one hand, he asked the troops behind to immediately withdraw to Sanguan with baggage, and on the other hand, he personally stood at the forefront of the team, commanding the more than 30,000 Song troops who had been killed with the Liao people to fight desperately, intending to drag the steps of the Liao people and buy a little time for the defense of Sanguan.

Yelu Gollum saw through Song Guang's intentions at a glance, locked on his target from afar, and led his own soldiers to kill Song Guang all the way. Kill him, and the Song army will be finished!

"General, you go first, I'm in the way here!" Song Guang's supervisor is very conscientious, and it can be said that it is very rare to say such a thing at this time.

Song Guang looked at Yelu Niu, who was getting closer and closer, and the soldiers of the Song Dynasty couldn't stop his impact at all. I really didn't expect that I would fight a curtain call like a beautiful face, and in the end it would evolve like this.

He smiled bitterly at the prison army: "The old man is old, you are still young. Let's go back, I'll leave it to you after the matter of guarding the three passes, this battle is all the fault of the old man, but it's a pity that I don't have time to go to the book, you write a memorabilia for me, and ask for guilt to Long live. ”

When the prison army heard that Song Guang had made up his mind to die, his expression was a little sad: "General! ”

Song Guang lifted the spear in his hand: "Go, let's drag the Liao people here for you." ”

The prison army left, Song Guang could already see the eyes of Yelu Ne's grunt, he took a deep breath, and his legs clamped the war horse under his crotch strongly: "Sons! Rush up and don't retreat! ”

Yelune grunted, and he slapped his horse and rushed towards Song Guang.
