Chapter Eighty-Nine

This qiē was seen by all the Liao army scouts and soldiers, and Yelu Jing naturally saw it in his eyes, Yelu Jing was not worried about how many ambushes the Ming army had, what he was most worried about was to repeat the tragedy of Jizhou City outside Qianzhou City.

So he didn't order an attack, as long as Baili Wuji and Chai Rong were still in the city, he had the patience to wait.

But now that Baili Wuji and Chai Rong are about to leave by boat, Yelujing can't wait.

In fact, Yelu Jing knew in his heart that this was a show of Baili Wuji, and he would have left a long time ago, so why wait until now. But Yelu Jing still couldn't give up the extravagant hope of capturing Baili Wuji and Chai Rong alive, knowing that there was fraud, he was still like a moth to a fire.

In Yelu Jing's heart, after the battle of Goryeo and the battle with the Ming army in Liaoyang Mansion, he had already deeply engraved the person Baili Wuji in his heart, and compared himself with him from time to time, and the results were often negative. This made Yelu Jing unbearable, and he vowed to completely defeat Baili Wuji and put the Ming Kingdom of the people under his control.

And right now, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, no matter what ambush there is in Baili Wuji, his 250,000 army has an absolute superiority in strength, and anyone who dares to stand in my way will be wiped out.

Yelu Jing immediately ordered that Yelu Qixi and Yelu Tira launch an attack on Qianzhou City from the west and north respectively, and he himself still sat in place and watched the changes.

Yelu Jing's method is very effective, from the west and north of each 100,000 troops to advance, even if there is really an ambush or something like that, he should be forced out by his own 200,000 army, so. Yelujing also has 80,000 leather room troops as a backing, and he can take the initiative to take the battlefield into his own hands at any time.

Baili Wuji and Chai Rong, who had already walked out of the East City Gate, were shocked when they heard the news. The two immediately returned, and once again climbed the city wall to look out.

The Liao army on the west and north roads is slowly pressing towards Qianzhou City, slowly but steadily, as if the one who is blocking me is dying.

Yelu Jing's strategy is the flaw in the Baili Mowgli plan.

Baili Wuji originally planned to lead the main force of the Liao army to Qianzhou and then stew it with a spoonful, but now Yelujing and his 80,000 descendants are watching the fire from the other side, and the artillery can't reach it at all.

This is far from what Baili Wuji wants to achieve. As the palace tent army of the Liao State, the leather room army is the strong backing of Yelu Jing. Both personal loyalty and the armament and horses equipped are the best in the Liao army. Leaving the 80,000 leather room army intact to Yelujing is equivalent to giving Yelujing a chance to make a comeback.

As long as Yelu Jing returns to Shangjing, with these 80,000 leather room troops and 70,000 leather room troops in Shangjing. It was enough to gather hundreds of thousands of troops again in just a few months, and the end of the war would be indefinite.

Only wiped out the 200,000 Liao troops outside the west and north gates. Can't meet the expectations of Baili Mowgli. If this is the only case, it will be the same as any defeat of the Liao army, the Liao army can scatter and flee, but a few days later, it will assemble somewhere in the desert and become a knife on the head of the Central Plains again.

Seeing that the situation was urgent, Baili Wuji immediately summoned Chen Yanzheng and ordered him to lead his troops out of the north gate. The army of 100,000 that had hindered Jerodirat approached, though it was 50,000 against 100,000. It sounds like half the strength of the troops, but as a defender, with the musketeers in the trenches behind him, Chen Yanzheng still feels that it is difficult to win, but it is easy to resist.

The Liao army fought with the Ming army several times, and had a certain understanding of the firearms of the Ming army, and the so-called battlefield is always a good place to learn, and this sentence is correct in any dynasty.

The Liao army is now lining up against the firearms of the Ming army. In order to deal with musket shooting, the array was loose, that is, two horsemen were separated from each other, which made it difficult for the Ming musketeers to hit, and at the same time, a longitudinal array was used to use the firing gap of the musket to move forward. In addition, this loose, vertical formation is also a good way to reduce casualties when dealing with landmines.

The Liao army came prepared, and Chen Yanzheng was going to block the enemy at the north gate, which could also reassure Baili Wuji, but how to deal with it at the West Gate broke Baili Wuji's brain, without exposing the power of artillery, it was indeed a little difficult to deal with the charge of 100,000 Liao cavalry with only 30,000 musketeers, but things have come to this point, and if you want to complete the goal, you can only take a risk.

Baili Wuji turned to Chai Rong, and Zhengrong pleaded: "Second brother, don't blame me for being a strong man, if you want to solve the current predicament, you can only try hard." ”

Chai Rong smiled and said: "Brother, it's okay to talk about it, Rong is all obedient." ”

Baili Wuji nodded and said, "I want to combine the three thousand guards and the second brother's three thousand guards into a battalion and use it as a reserve to deal with the Ximen battle situation." ”

Chai Rong said: "Of course you can." It's just that with 30,000 musketeers and these 6,000 guards, it is difficult to stop 100,000 Liao cavalry, and besides, 30,000 musketeers are scattered in the west and north directions, and their strength is even weaker. Brother please think twice, if you have to, using artillery in advance is the best way to retreat from the enemy. ”

Baili Wuji shook his head lightly and said: "Once the artillery is used in advance, Yelu Jing will inevitably order the withdrawal of troops, so even if we can leave the 200,000 Liao troops in the west and north here, it will be just a simple tactical victory." After that, Yelujing fled back to Shangjing and continued to recruit soldiers, and the war would go on endlessly. This is not what I want, what I want is to leave Yelujing's 80,000 leather room army behind, at least defeat, in this way, Yelu Jing is to flee back to Shangjing, without the backing of the leather room army, he can not sit on the throne of Liao, the chiefs of all tribes in Liao will take this opportunity to expand their power, once the situation develops, the Liao court is likely to be split because of this. Second brother, this opportunity is not easy to come by, if this time it is light to let Ye Lujing escape back to Shangjing, there may never be such an opportunity again. ”

Baili Wuji revealed his true intentions to Chai Rong at this time. That is, war, bloody war.

Chai Rong had no choice but to tie himself to Baili Wuji.

Therefore, Baili Wuji sent some musketeers from the north gate to the west gate, and at the same time ordered all the musketeers to enter the firing point, and ordered the 6,000 guard battalion to carry a large number of grenades and prepare to plug the gap. In fact, the guards understood the meaning of plugging the gap, that is, if the Ximen defense line was broken through by the Liao army, they would rush up and detonate the grenade with their flesh and blood to buy time for the Ming army to fill the gap. No one has any dissenting intentions, and as personal guards, they have long had the consciousness of sacrificing themselves to serve the Lord.

The great battle began when both sides were ready.

The Liao army continued to advance slowly, and only began to accelerate when it was about to enter the Ming firing range, so as to buy more time to break through from the musket fire. (To be continued......)
