They had only one thought in their hearts, and that was to die with their brothers in the besieged Fourth Army.

Five hundred warriors returned north with the thought of dying.

And Ding Sijin led less than 20,000 soldiers and 15,000 leather room troops for more than three hours, and the victory was inseparable.

Nearly half of the nearly 30,000 Liao tribal troops that were blocked by mine arrays in the west and north were lost.

But he was ordered by Jerushuku to continue the attack.

The corpses everywhere seem to tell the tragedy of this night.

As the sky grew brighter, the Fourth Army, which had lost its cover at night, began to be surrounded by tribal armies from the west and north that had escaped the threat of mines because of the dawn.

At this time, there were only 10,000 men left in the Fourth Army, and correspondingly, more than half of the 15,000 Leather Room Army was also lost.

This is a never-ending war of attrition.

After dawn, the tragic situation on the battlefield made it impossible for Yelu Shuogu to retreat.

The losses of the Liao army were so large that they could not be imagined by Yelu Shuogu, and now they are completely annihilating the Ming army, and they can no longer offset the mistakes of their own soldiers, so the only way out for Yelu Shuogu is to fight to the death.

At this time, the battlefield situation was approaching with nearly 10,000 tribal armies on the west and north sides, and the most threatening leather room army was in a stalemate with the Fourth Army in the east.

Only the south was broken by Zhu Kuangye's troops, but the Fourth Army could not get out of the attack of the leather room army.

When the tribal army flanked the Fourth Army from the west and north, the Fourth Army was exhausted after a night of fierce fighting, and the soldiers even watched the enemy's swords cut down on them, and they were unable to raise their swords to block.

In an instant, the array of the Fourth Army was compressed. Countless soldiers were hacked and killed.

And the most fatal thing was that when the sky dawned, the tribal armies in the west and north directions began to shoot on horseback.

The Ming army on both sides was shot to the ground by arrows like locusts, and Ding Sijin was also included. He was struck through his left shoulder by a stray arrow and dropped headlong from his horse.

At the moment of planting, Ding Sijin was still conscious, he knew that the last moment had come, but he was unable to do anything about the battle situation, his heart was like a wrench and his injuries made Ding Sijin faint.

The guards around him saw that the Lord was about to fall, and they didn't know whether they were alive or dead. Hurry up to the rescue.

I helped Ding Sijin up closely, and found that he was just unconscious, so. The guards unanimously chose to pass on the false order.

The whole army was ordered to break through to the south.

This order directly sent the Fourth Army to the point of no return, besieged on three sides, and even more so in the east, and the soldiers were exhausted. At this time, it is necessary to break through to the south. Undoubtedly, the Ming soldiers who were fighting with the enemy on the west, north, and east sides were abandoned, and only the troops in the middle and south of the Ming army could be evacuated.

And Ding Sijing's personal guards seized the opportunity of Ding Sijj's coma and issued a flag order.

The Fourth Army was one of the old divisions brought out from Gyeongju by Baili Wuji, and every soldier understood what it meant to give the order to retreat south at this time,

They know that they can't go back.

And that's often the way it is. The soldiers, who were sure that they were going to die, burst out at this moment with the most brilliant moment of their lives.

They were already exhausted. At this time, he summoned up the last trace of strength and launched a counterattack against the enemy who was stuck in three directions.

If you want to die, why not die with some dignity?

Since you are going to die, why not let your death buy a little time for the brothers who retreated south?

The moth to the fire, a moment of brilliance, made the soldiers of the Fourth Army who could have lived a moment more quickly die, but it also disrupted the already rock-solid Liao army formation, and the Liao army, which was desperately counterattacked by the Ming army, unconsciously retreated slightly.

But this retreat lasted for a short time, because after the death of the counterattacking Ming soldiers, there was no one behind, and in less than a moment, the Liao army quickly closed in, only to find that thousands of Ming troops had fled south to five miles away.

At this time, it was already dawn, and Yelu Shuogu immediately gave the order to pursue, how could this boiled duck let it run away easily.

The tribal armies of the west and north roads quickly converged, and Yelu Shuogu himself led them to pursue the Ming army.

Before Yelu Shuogu left, he ordered the leather room army, which had only more than 8,000 people left, to stay and recuperate and clean up the battlefield.

After a night of hard fighting with the Fourth Army, the Leather Room Army was also exhausted, but it stayed to clean up the battlefield, which also made all the wounded soldiers of the Ming army on the battlefield be slaughtered, and since then, after the war, only 17 wounded soldiers of the Ming army who pretended to be dead and escaped from the battlefield.

And this leather room army was lucky to escape the fate of the annihilation of the whole army.

In the short period of time from the discovery that the Ming army had fled south to the time when Yelu Shuogu issued the order to pursue, the Fourth Army moved south for another three miles.

But the speed of the Liao army was significantly faster than that of the Ming army.

One before and one behind, one fleeing and one chasing.

After running out of twenty miles, the distance quickly approached to three miles, and at this speed, at most another twenty miles, the Ming army would be caught up.

And the Ming soldiers who fled south began to spontaneously launch a blockade.

Blocking is to put it nicely, but in fact, it is to delay the speed of the Liao army with his life.

As long as the distance was close to three miles, hundreds of Ming soldiers would spontaneously slow down, turn their horses' heads, and accelerate again to launch a counter-charge against the Liao army.

Since the first wave of blocking delayed the Liao army for the longest time, every time the Liao army was blocked in the future, there was a countermeasure.

When the Ming army reflexively blocked the attack, the pursuing Liao army also quickly divided the corresponding number of cavalry to attack the Ming army, while the main force bypassed the engagement and continued to pursue south.

After these four blockades, the Fourth Army that fled south was less than 3,000 men.

At this time, the distance was again approaching within three miles, and the soldiers behind were about to turn around again to block the attack.

Jiang Yansi led the 500 Ming army to arrive head-on, and at the moment of the meeting, Ding Siji's personal guards recognized the captain of the Fourth Army in Padangdu, and gave the order to break off.

After the break, at this time it is already synonymous with sacrifice.

But Jiang Yansi led five hundred warriors to the north, originally to send him to death.

With the consciousness of mortality, Jiang Yansi led 500 warriors to meet the Ming army fleeing south, and passed through the gaps.

At the moment when he passed by, Jiang Yansi saw Ding Sijin lying prone on horseback, and even saw an arrow that pierced Ding Sijin's left shoulder.

At this moment, Jiang Yansi's mood was happy.

"The commander is still alive." Jiang Yansi shouted loudly with all his strength.

Yes, as long as Ding Sijin is alive, then the Fourth Army will still be there.

Five hundred warriors shouted in unison, "Long live the Ming Kingdom." "At this moment, they are fearless.

The soldiers of the Fourth Army who fled south couldn't help but look back at the warriors who passed by, and their eyes couldn't help but be sour, but the water in their bodies had already evaporated last night, and they couldn't shed a trace of tears.

All that remained in my heart was humiliation, unwillingness, resentment, and reverence for these 500 warriors.

The pursuing Liao army saw another Ming army rushing in the opposite direction, and the Liao army, which was able to make perfect, did not wait for Yelu Shuogu's order, so it divided 800 cavalry to encircle and annihilate the Ming army, but the main force began to swing its horse's head lightly, preparing to detour.
