Song Wen was still soaking chicks in the grass to hunt and rest, waiting for the big leader of the Nada Sea Grassland to be selected by the way...... An earthen city in the southeast of the capital city in Daliao opened the prelude to a great war.

Lingyang County is not big, and it is said that there is an area of seven or eight miles in a radius, and it can garrison three or four thousand troops when it is full. But now there are nearly 10,000 enemies outside Lingyang County.

There were only 3,000 Jurchen warriors, and the rest were some Semu cavalry who had taken refuge in the Jurchens, some Bohai people, and other Jurchen tribesmen who came out of the dense forests in the northeast, and even many Han and Goryeo people mixed in.

Why did these Jurchen armies besiege this tiny Lingyang County? Because most of the grain and grass of the vanguard army of the Great Liao Bandit Suppression Army are stored in the city......

The Jurchens of the Great Liao's menacing Eastern Expedition, as a result, the Jurchens attacked separately and directly bypassed the well-prepared vanguard army of the Liao State, and then directly attacked the main force of the Liao army, the leather room army, and the main forces of several military states! After defeating the leather room army in the first battle, he launched a pursuit of the main army that had fled......

This battle caused heavy losses to the Great Liao State, directly losing a large area of land east of Zhongjing City, plus most of the northeast region that had already been occupied by the Jurchens, it can be said to be a real nerve-wracking.

The vanguard army that directly attacked the Jurchens in northwest Liaoning was stunned all of a sudden, and they just rushed all the way over, but as a result, all the main forces in the back were killed! How can this be fought?

As a result, the Jurchens easily returned to the division with a blow, and the Daliao vanguard army, which had collapsed, collapsed in an instant, leaving behind a large number of corpses, horses and equipment and fled in all directions.

Those Semu, Mongols, and Han people can escape, but what about the Khitan nobles? If they escaped, the Liao court would regard them as a disgrace to the Khitans...... The whole family will be implicated, and they can't raise their heads!

The one who guards Lingyang City is the eldest brother of Brother Yelu Shan, Yelu Shanmin, who was named the third general of the vanguard army from the palace division army!

As the eldest son of the Great Liao Emperor's confidant of the Southern Courtyard King Nanjing Zhenshou, it is more than enough to be the third general of this vanguard army...... Yelu Shanmin was originally annoyed that he had not been able to charge forward, but now he was only glad that he had not fallen into the sand with the 20,000 vanguard army.

But it's not easy to live now!

The Tokyo town guard was still mobilizing troops and unwilling to fail, and three urgent military orders were passed to Yelu Sanmin...... Strictly ordered him not to leave his post without permission, and stick to Lingyang County and wait for reinforcements to counterattack! Grain and grass must not be allowed to fall into the hands of the Jurchens.

But everyone can see that this is just the dying struggle of the bandit general who is unwilling to fail in the Tokyo Prefecture of Daliao, and even the leather room army has collapsed, who is expected to defeat the Jurchens? Those Han Chinese infantry? Or are they the lustful people at both ends of the rats?

Yelu Shanmin was unwilling to wait for death, and sent people to Tokyo several times to ask for help, even if he allowed himself to burn the grain and grass and break through and come back?

The general of Daliao's Zhengdong ignored it, and even ordered Yelu Shanmin not to take a step back and live and die with Lingyang County!

Tens of thousands of servants have been besieging Lingyang County for a day and a night, but fortunately, the Jurchens' siege equipment is a mess, and there are no trebuchets, heavy crossbows, nest carts or anything, otherwise the less than 3,000 defenders in the city would have scattered and collapsed.

At dawn, the Jurchens withdrew their troops, and the ragtag army commanded by a small number of Jurchens quickly retreated, leaving nearly a thousand corpses to be lost under the city.

There were also a lot of dead and wounded on the head of the city, and a corpse was thrown behind the female wall indiscriminately, and the Jurchens had accurate archery, and they also slashed at least two or three hundred Khitan defenders several times on the head of the city.

Blood trickled down the walls, then quickly absorbed by the dry rammed earth walls, leaving only a slimy, dark trail.

Yelu Sanmin gasped and sat down on top of a shield, fortunately there was plenty of food and grass and a lot of arrows, otherwise...... The Jurchen army is afraid that it would have already captured the city wall and started to slaughter.

These damn Jurchen Tartars...... Why is it so crazy to fight? Even with those servant armies, the morale is high and the fighting is bloody, have the Khitan warriors of the Great Liao Kingdom really lost the bravery in their souls?

Buddhism is now prevalent in Liao, and all the nobles like to eat fasting and chant Buddha for self-cultivation, shouldn't the Buddha favor his own believers? Why do you lose and lose?

There was also a small commotion in the Jurchen camp in the distance, and before Yelu Shanmin could rejoice, he saw seven or eight generals of the Jurchen servant army being dragged out of the camp gate by the Jurchen sword and axe men in cold blood, and then blood was sprinkled all over the ground with the flash of the sword.

The generals of these servant armies who were unfavorable in attack were all beheaded and displayed to the public!

Yelu Shanmin smiled bitterly...... This is over, the Jurchens feel that they have lost face, and they are afraid that they are going to move seriously.

Sure enough, the time was over...... The servant army in the Jurchen camp rushed out with nearly 5,000 people, and then surrounded by a Jurchen army of about 1,000 people, and came straight to the city gate.

The most powerful Jurchen pro-army was dispatched.

Yelu Shanmin watched as the fierce and brave Jurchen pro-army abandoned their war horses, wore thick armor, carried flails, sharp axes and copper hammers, and drove a group of servants carrying long ladders and wooden poles to rush towards the city wall.

A cavalry rushed out of the gate again, and the call sign galloped into two teams and approached the battlefield from both sides, the knight on the horse was dressed in iron leather armor and held a heavy horned bow, and the feathered arrows that had been mounted on the bowstring were stout......

A Khitan centurion on the city wall hurriedly shouted: "The Jurchen kidnapping horse...... Everyone, raise your shield! Anti-heavy arrow ...... Raise the shield ......"

Yelu Shanmin sighed, these guys again...... Most of the casualties on the city wall were caused by the heavy arrows fired by these fast-moving kidnappers!

Suddenly, Yelu Shanmin's heart was excited...... Since the kidnapping horse is responsible for covering, the more than 1,000 Jurchen pro-army wearing heavy armor behind the servant army will not be ...... It can't be the battle outside the capital that defeated the Great Liao Pi Room Army, Tiefutu, right?

As a rain of arrows, heavy arrows fell down, and some could even directly penetrate the iron-covered wooden shield! Most of the Khitan warriors could only hide under the battlements of the city wall with their heads down, and did not dare to raise their heads at all...... But once this happens, the defenders lose their defense and surveillance under the city walls!

The servant army was driven to the bottom of the city wall by the Jurchen army wearing leather armor and carrying long wooden poles, and lost hundreds of people in the process, but there were still two or three hundred long wooden poles that reached the bottom of the city wall.

The five servants clinged to one end of a wooden pole, and on the other end was a Jurchen warrior in heavy armor......

In the shouting and cheering, the five servant soldiers gritted their teeth and tried their best to hold up the wooden pole, and the Jurchen heavy armor soldiers at the end of the wooden pole rose to the head of the city!

The Khitans were so frightened that they no longer dared to pay attention to the rain of arrows, and began to shoot at the servants who raised their wooden poles below...... Because it is useless to shoot those heavily armored Jurchen pro-army, the thick armor is enough to withstand most of the bows and crossbows of the Khitan army! Only rolling logs or heavy weapons can deal with them......

The remaining stones were desperately smashed down by a few red-eyed Khitan soldiers, and the two heavy armored soldiers were smashed down without saying a word, but the kidnapping horse cavalry patrolling around the periphery immediately splashed a rain of arrows...... Several Khitan soldiers were all shot to death on the battlements at the head of the wall!

There were also more than 200 Jurchen heavy armor soldiers fighting to the death, and Yelu Shanmin commanded his men to desperately carry more than a dozen precious heavy crossbows to the head of the city...... "Shoot, shoot those kidnapping horses!" Shoot ...... with them"

Dozens of huge bed crossbows are Yelu Shanmin's last hole cards, and he originally planned to use this thing to enter the city gate and kill himself to escape from the ascension...... As a result, the dispatch of the Jurchen pro-army made him have to play his life in advance.

The thick crossbow arrows roared and flew out, and the arrogant and domineering Jurchen abducted horse cavalry was immediately killed by dozens of powerful crossbow arrows! Some were even crucified together with people and horses...... The remaining kidnappers and horse cavalry subconsciously began to dodge, and Yelu Shanmin immediately shouted: "Defend the city wall and smash stones!" We must not let the heavy armor come up to ......"

The living Khitan soldiers gritted their teeth and got up to fight for their lives, and there were already seven or eight Jurchen heavy armored soldiers who climbed up, and the flail axe and copper hammer in their hands waved like the wind, smashing some Khitan soldiers around them with their brains bursting and their bones broken!

Yelu Shanmin gritted his teeth, roared and urged all the guards behind him to kill them, and then let these heavy armored soldiers kill them, and he will have to return to the underworld today......

The five hundred guards in fish-scale armor roared and pounced, and Yelu Shanmin also pulled out his scimitar and gritted his teeth...... Suddenly, there was a dull smashing sound at the city gate, and Yelu Shanmin's heart was tight, and he had been thinking about breaking through, so he left the two city gates in the south and west not blocked with earth and stones, but died behind the city gate with a knife cart and a horse rejection...... Did the Jurchens find the emptiness behind the city gates?

Yelu Shanmin hurriedly ran to the south gate, and before he could reach the top of the city gate, a sudden commotion and shouting made cold sweat break out on his back...... "Oh no, the Jurchen Tartars broke the city gate......"

"They smashed the gates alive......"

"Throw stones, block the door!"
