Chapter Seventy-One: Retreat

"Yelu Baohe, you don't want to talk nonsense, you are late, you are ordered to attack, don't you see that Zhou Jun stays on that mountain without falling? Hey, it seems that some people are not good at riding, but they complain that others are fast? Hum! ”

Ashina is not a willing to suffer, seeing that most of the grain trucks are in the hands of his own soldiers and horses, he has no intention of letting it out, and refuted Yelu Baohe unceremoniously.

"Zizi Zi ......"

Just when the two Liao armies were arguing, a slight sizzling sound suddenly sounded in the grain cart, accompanied by this strange sound was a stream of green smoke wafting out of the grain pile on the cart, with a pungent smell of gunsmoke.

"It's not good, the grain truck is on fire, hurry up and put out the fire, hurry up and put out the fire!"

The Liao officers and soldiers who were arguing saw the grain trucks suddenly emitting green smoke, and they shouted and wanted to go to put out the fire, but at this moment, the change suddenly happened!

"Boom, boom......"

The carriages suddenly exploded, and in a series of loud noises, countless debris and debris shot out like lightning in all directions, and in an instant, a large part of the Liao army gathered around the carriage was blown away, and the vanguard troops of more than 20,000 Liao troops on both roads were blown up in this violent explosion.

Although the officers and soldiers who were a little far away were not injured, the war horses under their crotches were frightened and lost control, and the Liao troops who were dismounted from their horses did not know how many, and for a time the sound of miserable howls resounded one after another in the valley.

"How so, how so?"

Ashina patronized and quarreled with Yelubaohe, but he did not approach the grain trucks, and when the loud explosion stopped, he saw that the whole valley was in shambles, full of stumps and broken arms, and countless wounded soldiers were lying on the ground and howling miserably, leaving him there, muttering unconsciously, unable to believe what was in front of him.

"Ah......h

Compared to Ashina, who was only frightened, Yelu Baohe was more unlucky, he rode his horse on the side near the grain cart, although he did not die in Huangquan, but he was also slashed off by the flying iron piece, and the huge pain made Yelu Baohe howl as badly as those wounded soldiers.

"This, this, this ......"

Not only was the Liao army shocked by this huge explosion, but the sergeants of the Crane Army who were far away on the mountain were also shocked, Yue Yun looked at the tragic situation under the mountain in amazement, these grain trucks were all personally supervised by him, and what they contained naturally knows, in addition to the sacks on the surface of each car are filled with real rice, but the sacks under them are filled with the secret weapon of the Great Zhou Dynasty - the fire canister.

As for Yue Yun's subordinates before, they were busy arranging the leads for the blasting canisters in each car, and pulling them to the side of the road with thin wires, as long as the Liao army rushed to the horses, they would definitely pull these thin wires, so as to open the white phosphorus bag hanging upside down on the lead of the blasting canister, and the white phosphorus would spontaneously combust when it encountered air, thus igniting the leads.

The result was the earth-shattering explosion before, but although Yue Yun knew the power of the explosion canister, he never thought that this explosion pot would be so powerful when used together, it was simply earth-shattering.

"Rush, kill me down the mountain, kill!"

Yue Yun was shocked and shocked, but he would not forget his business, seeing that the Liao army under the mountain was in chaos, he naturally would not let go of such a good opportunity. Raising the horizontal knife in his hand, he roared, and led his troops to rush down the hill and kill into the Liao rebel army.

"Resist, resist, line up, line up, line up!"

Yelu Baohe reacted very quickly, seeing that the Zhou army on the mountain took advantage of the chaos to kill down the mountain, but he didn't care about his own injuries, brandished his horse lance, and roared loudly, trying to stabilize the Liao army that had become a mess.

However, the Liao army around the grain truck had already been frightened by the tragic scene of the explosion, and under the panic of the people, who would listen to Yelu Baohe's shouts, and the quick reaction was already turning the horse's head and fleeing backwards, and countless deserters rushed into the Liao army, which was in the periphery and did not know what the situation was.

The Liao army in the rear also fled at a loss, leaving the Liao army completely in a state of chaos, and there was no trace of war spirit at all.

"Withdraw, withdraw!"

Ashina didn't have the courage to fight to the death in Yelubao and that kind of battle, as soon as he saw the Zhou army coming from the mountain, his first reaction was to twist the horse's head, regardless of the horse and fled to the way he came, he didn't stop this escape, the already chaotic Liao army was even more chaotic, under the trampling of people and horses, before the Zhou army killed, the Liao army itself had collapsed completely!

"Kill!"

"Rush!

……

Three thousand Zhou troops shouted and rushed into the Liao army that had been in chaos, and the Liao army was cut to the ground by the sword light, and the Liao army, which had no fighting spirit at all, was completely panicked, and no one dared to turn back, everyone desperately ran forward, before and after less than a quarter of an hour, all the Liao troops who could escape had escaped cleanly, and the rest all fell to the ground, either they had become dead corpses, or they were seriously injured and lay on the ground wailing, and the whole battlefield was like hell.

"Hoo ......"

After defeating the Liao army, the officers and soldiers of Zhou, who had no war horses, could not chase the rebels, they could only watch the remnants of the Liao army flee, and seeing that the general situation had been decided, Yue Yun couldn't care about the image of the main general, and sat on the ground with a big gasp, but anyone could see the excitement in his eyes, and he couldn't dream that he could achieve such a big result.

"Rumble ......"

Just as Yue Yun and the others were sitting on the ground resting, they saw a burst of smoke and dust on the way, and the rumbling sound of horses' hooves exploded like thunder, which made Yue Yun and the others jump up in shock, but when they saw the Qinglong battle flag in the smoke and dust, they all collapsed to the ground relaxedly.

"General Yue, what's going on? That's the end of the Liao army? ”

When Su Dingfang, who came in a hurry, saw the situation on the battlefield, he couldn't help frowning, turned over and got off the horse, strode to Yue Yun, who was sitting on the ground, and asked a little puzzled.

"Well, it's over, everything that can run is gone, and the rest is here."

As soon as he saw Su Dingfang coming, Yue Yun's heart, which was still hanging, also fell, his waist straightened, he struggled to stand up from the ground, swept left and right with the horizontal knife dripping with blood in his hand, and said with a little pride.

"Oh, alas......"

Su Dingfang was ambushed behind the grain transport team early in the morning, and as soon as he got the news of the appearance of the Liao army, he hurried over, but he didn't expect to be too late to catch up, and he didn't catch anything, looking at the messy battlefield in front of him, the depression in his heart can be imagined, he could only sigh angrily, stomped his feet, and was busy directing a group of officers and soldiers to clean up the battlefield without mentioning it.

"What, that's the case?"

If Su Dingfang was only depressed after listening to Yue Yun's story, Yeluqi's reaction was to be shocked, and then seeing Yelubao and Ashina kneeling in front of him, the anger in his heart instantly surged out, and he slammed the table in front of him to the ground, glaring at the two of them.

"The Great Khan is angry, and the slaves should not have had such a great defeat......"

Seeing that Yeluqi was furious, Ashina was afraid of being severely punished, so he told the story of the battle in detail, especially focusing on things like thunder such as fire cans.

"Yes, Great Khan! That thing was really like a thunderbolt, and it suddenly exploded, and I couldn't react before I could do it, so it became like this. ”

Yelu Baohe is not a fool, so he naturally hurriedly echoed.

"Enough, shut up Ben Khan, get out, get out!"

Yeluqi was furious, he didn't have a good face, yelled, and drove the two out of the big tent of the Chinese army, but he paced in the big tent angrily, and the Zhou army let him lose more than 30,000 soldiers and horses with a small earthen pot, how not to make him shocked and angry.

You must know that since entering the hinterland of Yongzhou, the two major battles have caused him to lose nearly 70,000 soldiers and horses, accounting for more than one-sixth of his total strength.

And the food and grass in his army has gradually run out, who would have thought that when he led an army of more than 500,000 people to come with great momentum, how high-spirited he was, who knows......

For a while, the retreat in Yeluqi's heart became more and more intense, maybe it was the best choice for him to stop in moderation, Yeluqi thought silently.

"After the withdrawal of the army, it may be a good choice to go to Song Country for a walk!" Yeluqi looked at the top of the tent and muttered.
