Chapter 214 If you want to cooperate, you must fight first

"The first team goes to the right, and the second team is responsible for the left ......"

"The digging pit is three times larger than the sea bowl, two feet deep, and densely distributed."

"Those thistles are sprinkled at the end, forming a third line of defense."

……

East Wutai Mountain (now Panshan), Chao Gai led his troops not to return to Yinmachuan, but came directly here, and the 4,000 cavalry who had been on standby for a long time were ordered to rush to arrive. There is a small road into the mountain, and the area ahead is a flat river and the area begins to be busy, and the division of labor is clear to arrange trap defense.

Chao Gai didn't rely on thousands of cavalry to be arrogant to the point that there was no one in sight. There are 200,000 Liao soldiers stationed in the sixteen states of Yanyun. Let yourself and the army fight bravely and well, and you will be pale in the face of numbers.

So take advantage of the time to do some defense, not to defeat the opponent, but to buy time to retreat into the mountains, or to fight in the mountains, or to flee from other places, of course, this is to prepare for the worst.

Thousands of people were dispatched, and the progress was very fast!

On the left of the open field is a small river that winds and on the right is a link to the foot of the mountain. Many people cut down trees to make antlers and send them deep into the mountains.

Or on the ground there are regular digging of several feet wide, three feet deep horse pits, forming the first line of defense, behind is the sea bowl pit, closely connected to form a plum blossom shape, is the second line of defense. Support it with branches and cover it with floating soil! Only a thoroughfare more than ten meters wide is set aside in the middle. Holes are marked with a striking red label on the floor. The third line of defense is to sprinkle sharp thistles behind the pit.

Others went into the mountains in search of other exits.

Chao Gai was not idle, leading people to cut down trees to make a wooden frame similar to a ping-pong table, and went to the stream to dig sand and dig soil and dump it. With a shovel and a knife, he made a sand table with the landform around Wutai Mountain to the east.

It's not as vivid as it is elaborately made, but it's enough for temporary use. He summoned Han Shizhong, Du Bai, Lu Zhishen, Lin Chong, Su Ding and many other generals. Hold the red and blue banner and deduce tactics on the sand table.

For example, from which direction will the Liao army come, how many people will come, and how to deal with the sudden action? How to decide whether to resist or go into the mountains and escape was clearly considered, and the generals spoke enthusiastically to simulate the battle situation.

……

The moon rabbit quietly rose eastward, and fell unconsciously, and a day flew by.

When the red wheel rises in the east, the red glow sprinkles on the vast land.

The scouts of the Chao family army came to report again and again, and thousands of Liao soldiers rushed out of Jizhou City. Chao Gai got the news and immediately understood, and the rallying call for the military camp sounded!

"Gather, you can't let the Liao people look down on it!"

"Quick, roar, show your spirit."

At the foot of East Wutai Mountain, the soldiers of the Chao family army who were originally exercising in the morning moved. subconsciously checked the equipment, and then led the war horse in an orderly manner.

Except for the two hundred people who were Tang Bin's subordinates, they were all soldiers of the pro-guard battalion and trapped in the camp, who had gone through many bloody battles, were highly disciplined, and moved quickly.

In less than a stick of incense, more than 800 cavalry assembled, and the banner of Chao character fluttered in the wind. Several large drums were beaten, and the sound of thumping drums shook in all directions.

With the flickering of the command flag, more than 800 cavalry rode forward in unison. The men on the horse were all burly and strong, wearing iron armor, and everyone was holding sharp weapons, and they were murderous. Form a cone-shaped battle formation and charge forward.

Just because a black line in the distance is approaching quickly!

It was the royal brother king Yelu Dezhong, who was sitting in Jizhou City, and led thousands of people to come.

Both sides were cavalry, and they charged at each other's speed, and they met in a moment. Almost at the same time, the bow and arrow were bent and shot. The posture of the charge suddenly stopped, and then the sword and gun were raised, forming a confrontation.

"Ouch, their horses are so good!" Chao Gai was not surprised by the number of the Liao army, but sighed for their fat and strong war horses under their crotch. It is worthy of the regime established by the nomads, and there is a lack of horses to catch it on the steppe.

"I wonder if it's a high-grade war horse given to us?"

"Hahaha, I guess so, they are nobles, and they also have to take care of their face." Beside him, Han Shizhong, Du Yan, Lu Zhishen and other generals laughed.

"Are you sure it's not the regular army of the Southern Barbarians?" The Liao army in front of the rushing Liao army was shocked by the eyes of a forty-year-old, not surprised by the small number of people in Chao Gai, but for them to be draped all over their bodies, holding a foot crossbow and feeling incredible.

This person is the royal brother King Yelu Dezhong, who slapped his horse and rushed out of more than a dozen steps and shouted: "Ah, you are so bold that the Song people dare to invade the border of my Liao country?" ”

This person is burly, draped all over his body, with a white dragon horse in the crotch, holding a wind-splashing knife, galloping back and forth, majestic. In the Liao army, more than a dozen generals rushed out of the prancing horse to follow this person, and the princess of Liao, Da Libi, Yelu Zonglei, and Yelu Zonglin were also among them.

Behind him were at least thousands of cavalrymen, covered with iron armor, all of them were burly and strong, all of them had strange eyes, waving their weapons and shouting, and the sound of killing shook the sky.

When Chao Gailiao saw this battle, he naturally recognized the middle-aged man as the main one: "Hahaha, King Yelu, you can't afford to buckle down your big hat." I just came to do business and buy livestock, how could I ever commit a crime? ”

As he spoke, he slapped his horse with a long knife and looked at the other party from a distance. The generals followed closely behind, on the left were Hu Sanniang, Han Shizhong, Guo Sheng, Lu Fang, and Su Qi, and on the right were Du Yan, Lu Zhishen, Lin Chong, Tang Bin, Li Kui, a total of ten generals, all glaring angrily.

The cavalry stared at the opposite side and rushed forward. Except for the trampling of horses' hooves, not a single person made a sound, and the terrible silence spread rapidly, with the least number of people but even more oppressive.

Not to mention that many Liao soldiers felt that they were being targeted by a group of hungry wolves, and they couldn't help but feel furious, and even the barbarian generals in front of them and even Yelu Dezhong were shocked in their hearts. I felt that the cavalry on the opposite side had aggressive eyes and were very familiar.

It's like the invincible Liaoguo Iron Cavalry back then!

But where can you show weakness at this time? King Yelu was aggressive: "Hahaha, so daring! Dare to do this in Liao, isn't it self-defeating? The king gave an order, waved his army to cover up and kill the generals, and so on. ”

"Wowhaha." Chao Gai did not show weakness, his eyes showed contempt, and his face was full of disdain: "King Yelu, just you?" Not to mention the thousands of people at the moment, what can be done with 35,000? Chao led the team to rush and kill, and it was easily defeated. ”

"Wow, bold maniac, arrogant."

"What's the way, Lao Tzu was born like this, what can you do?"

"Ah, I thought you saved the little girl, I wanted to entertain ......"

"I said, my lord, you might as well give you eighteen thousand good horses."

The men on the two horses were at loggerheads,-for-tat, and they did not give in to each other. One reprimanded, the other was a scoundrel and rambling.

After a lot of gossip, Chao Gai saw that the other party didn't have a door, so he cut it off directly: "There is so much less nonsense, Chao is so busy that he has no time to talk nonsense." If you want to cooperate and fight first, come on, you Liao people don't say that the three armies are brave, then follow the customs of the country, fight, and whoever loses will speak well. ”

"Hmph, who dares to come out ......" Yelu snorted coldly and agreed, just turned around and looked around and asked, and before he finished speaking, someone slapped his horse and killed.

"Wow, yes, the general of the Liao State, Ali Qi is here, the Song people, take your life."

I saw this general, with a white face and red lips, yellow eyes and blue eyes, nine feet long, wearing a three-pronged purple and gold crown, wearing heavy iron armor, embroidered phoenix and white Luo robes on the outside, a lion belt around his waist, eagle claw boots, carrying a finch painting iron tire bow, holding a pear flower point steel spear, riding a Dama (Mongolian horse), silver and white without variegation, bending and kicking, and screaming on the horse.

"Ariqi? Admiral Danzhou, it is said that he can defeat 10,000 people, hahaha. Chao Gai looked up and down and laughed, and Yelu Dezhong's face on the other side was slightly embarrassed, but he didn't expect to be recognized by the other party at a glance.

"We are fearless, who dares to fight? Do what you want, don't win, you don't lose. After Chao Gai laughed, he turned to look at the generals around him, and his eyes swept over Lu Zhishen, Xuan Qi, Tang Bin and others.

As for Hu Sanniang, who is eager to try, Li Kui is it.

This Aliqi defeated Xu Ning in only 30 combinations, and he was a real general.

"Hahaha, after going up the mountain, there is no size work, no one should rob it." Lu Zhishen laughed and patted the horse, and jumped out of the horse in front of everyone.

"Lu Zhishen, the flower monk under the command of the Heavenly King, is here, and your handful of birds are rampant."

The master shook his face and scolded, clamped the horse's belly, no matter how fast the speed was, he picked up the water and grinded the Zen staff to kill.

Aric said in a strange tone that he was bald and slapped his gun at him. In a moment, the two sides met, did not talk, and the weapons were raised together. A sixty-two-pound water-mill Zen staff flew up and down, sinking vigorously, and another pear blossom point steel gun smashed and pumped, fast and ruthless.

Lu Zhishen is a fierce man who upside down the weeping willows, and he is also good at kung fu immediately. Aliqi has been bullying people with brute force for many years, and finally encounters a strong enemy. No matter how strange the yelling is, the fat monk is more fierce than him.

After more than ten rounds of fighting, no winner or loser, Aric fell behind.

"Come and don't be rude, who dares to challenge?" Chao Gai nodded, and looked at the generals around him. Before the words fell, he slammed the big axe and slapped the horse out of battle.

"Well, the general under the command of the Heavenly King, the Tiger Race, is here, who dares to fight?"

"Wow, how dare the Song people be presumptuous? Jizhou general Baomi Shenglai also! ”

Before the provocative words fell, there was a strong man with a tiger's back and a bear's waist on the opposite side, and rushed out of the formation with a fierce momentum, heading straight for the dragon.

I didn't hear Chao Gai mention the fierce generals of the Liao State, and knew that this guy was a mixed race of Han and Liao, and he was infinitely powerful, but where would he be afraid of him? Pick up the axe.

The horses on both sides grabbed the heart, each roared, and the weapons were raised together, and they fought together.

As soon as the two fought, another big man from the Liao State slapped his horse and shouted: "Jizhou General Tianshan Yong is here, and the Song people have not surrendered in a group?" ”

"Hmph, the barbarian still dares to make noise? The general under the command of the Heavenly King, Sai Rengui and Guo Sheng, are here. "Chao Gai is not to be outdone, Guo Sheng shoots the horse and kills the halberd.

The white horse and white robe took the opponent directly like a horse, and raised the halberd to stab. How can the Liao general Tianshan Yong show weakness? Strange screams and wields a big gun to fight with it.

In this way, you and I will appear on both sides, and the calls come and go. Tang Bin and that Taishan Baturu, Yelu Zonglei and Xiao Wenhou Lu Fang, and the leopard head Lin Chong and Yelu Zongyun fought successively.

Six pairs of people and horses are fighting each other, this scene is rare!

Thousands of Liao soldiers roared like thunder, waving their flags and shouting.

The soldiers of the Chao family army also opened their voices and cheered for their own generals.

The two sides are sharp to Maimang, and they don't give an inch!
