Chapter 109: The Battle of Shangjing (Part II)

Jin Bing pursued the Liao army, and soon entered a canyon, the distance from here to the high ground is very close, and there is the camp of the Liao army, everyone flocked to it, and was squeezing into the camp, Jin Bing looked at it in the back, laughed, this Liao army has been frightened and rushed in to capture the commander alive!

But the big camp here is just a look, out of the gate erected arrow tower and outside the antlers, the wall is only placed very high in front, after entering the inside is empty, the golden soldiers rushed in before feeling deceived, but this time it was too late, from the canyon on both sides of the mountain down to shoot a rain of arrows.

These arrows and crossbows are not ordinary bows and arrows, but arm-thick crossbow guns, fired by the ballista carts, twenty at a time, Xiao Ming has prepared at least a few hundred crossbow carts on the hills on both sides, and now with an order, thousands of crossbow arrows are sent out together, and at the same time, five thousand archers have also joined the ranks of shooting.

Bows and arrows have been used as long-range offensive weapons since their own name, which can be used to intercept, snipe, block, and also use a hard bow for long-distance killing, but the bow and arrow are used as melee weapons, not to mention that the Jin soldiers have never seen it, and even the Liao soldiers have not seen it.

Just listen to "poof......! The sound was endless, blood was splashed, and the crossbow arrows with thick arms could nail people to the ground with people and horses, and the canyon was crowded together, and the golden soldiers were killed and wounded, but this group of golden soldiers were brave, and they were so hit that they did not retreat, and they dismounted one after another, holding scimitars and climbing on the cliffs of the canyon on both sides, wanting to climb the hillside to attack the archers.

Wanyan Aguta caught up from behind, and seeing the golden soldiers huddled together in the canyon, he was suddenly in a hurry and ordered the cavalry to withdraw, but the current road was narrower and no wider than the riverbank and tidal flats, and the heralds of Aguta could not rush over quickly, and could only shout on the periphery.

Wanyan Di Gunai stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, the road here is narrow, and the Liao people have ambushed a large number of archers here, but the canyon here is not the only road, you can pass through this canyon less than five miles to the west, let me take people from where to go?" ”

Wanyan Aguda nodded in agreement, Wanyan Digunai immediately led the eight thousand cavalry to detour to the west, and at the same time, Aguta gathered the golden soldiers pulled out of the canyon and shouted loudly: "Where are our Jurchen warriors?" ”

The general Yan Mu stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty! The Jurchen warriors are here! Let me go, right? ”

Wanyan Aguta nodded with satisfaction, and immediately ordered the heavy armored cavalry behind to come down and set up the big shield, these two thousand heavy armored knights were of great use to Aguta, and now they were also sent up, and ordered Yan Mu to lead five thousand lightly armed cavalry to immediately dismount and quickly seize the high ground on both sides under the cover of the shield.

Suddenly the sound of shouting and killing sounded, the sky was raining arrows, the blood on the ground flowed into a river, the golden soldiers rushed to the high ground on both sides with their shields as if they were not dying, the general Yan Mu took the lead, and climbed the high ground first, and killed two Liao archers one after another, and the Jin soldiers behind him shouted and rushed up, and the Liao soldiers on the high ground on both sides saw the Jin soldiers climb up, and suddenly scattered in a hurry, and ran away in a moment.

After clearing the archers on both sides of the canyon, the Jin soldiers reorganized their soldiers and horses to continue the pursuit, the retreating figure of the Liao army in front was faintly visible, and there were those pulling the cart and the horses, panicking, running smoke and dust, the Jin soldiers and cavalry desperately beat the horses to chase, and the entire team of tens of thousands of people was gradually pulled into a long column.

When the chase was in a hurry, the people in front shouted that the horse neighed and the battle started again, that is, part of the cavalry of Wanyan Di Gunai had already made a detour to catch up, and stopped a part of the retreating Liao army, and the Jin soldiers who were pursuing behind were overjoyed, and immediately rushed up to catch up with the horses and whip up, and surrounded this part of the Liao army.

Suddenly, a group of people and horses rushed out from the woods on one side, wearing a one-piece iron armor painted with a tiger's head, spears and scimitars, and iron hooves rumbling and rushing over, this team of men and horses immediately formed a circle after penetrating the column of the golden soldiers, and continued to assassinate in a cycle, which was Xiao Ming's famous tactic, grinding plate tactics!

The golden soldiers continued to send people to the encirclement of other people, and this ironclad cavalry was constantly grinding, and the soldiers pointed out that there were already thousands of Jin soldiers who were killed, and the Liao army that was blocked in front did not come to help but fled in the wilderness, running as fast as it could.

After the Jurchen cavalry of the brigade caught up from behind, he suddenly heard the horn blowing, and the tiger armored cavalry of about 10,000 people suddenly burrowed into the woods next to him, and disappeared in a flicker.

On this road that spread for twenty miles, Xiao Ming actually found several such ambush locations, and after the crossbow cart in front of him finished shooting two rounds, he was pulled behind the carriage and desperately ran to the second ambush site, relying on the tiger armored cavalry that was killed from one side, Xiao Ming actually grinded out nearly 10,000 Jurchen cavalry along the way!

The angry Jin soldiers scolded the Liao people for being despicable, but they still chased after them under the urging of Wanyan Aguta, and even spared the Liao soldiers who fell behind, and only wanted to catch up with the Liao army brigade, but they did not catch up with others at all, and the Liao army infantry of tens of thousands of people were now scattered and fled, but these people did not run away, but rushed to the next ambush site.

However, Xiao Ming still ignored the determination of the Jurchens to pursue, and finally near the upper reaches of the river, the Liao soldiers were caught up by the Jurchen cavalry, this is a simple dam built in the upper reaches of the river occupied by the Liao army, a lot of stones and branches are blocked in the upper reaches of the river, and the drop formed by the drop in the water level in the downstream place is like a river valley, and the Liao soldiers drilled into the river valley like a pocket, and the periphery was immediately blocked by the Jin soldiers.

After sending scouts to observe the situation inside, Wanyan Agu drew out his scimitar and waved it downward, and the Jin cavalry swarmed in, and the Liao soldiers who had fled in were spinning around like ants on a hot pot, and when they saw the Jurchen cavalry rushing in, they immediately blew up the camp, and they abandoned their horses and climbed along the slopes of the river valley to the heights.

At this time, only to hear a loud sound of the sky and the earth cracking, the stones and branches blocking the river dam were suddenly blown out of a big gap, the stones and branches flew up more than ten meters high, and the blocked river water rushed down, in fact, this piece of drinking water is not much, the reason is that the blocking time is not long, and the blockage is still very loose, and the river leakage is very serious.

Although there is not much water, the momentum is too amazing! The river set off huge waves, mixed with stones, and hit down with heads and faces, and immediately hundreds of people were washed off their horses, and the rest of the Jin soldiers were shocked and retreated, but the waves came too fast, and they were all washed back and forth.

The Jin people are all people from the extreme north of Liao, and they are not familiar with the water nature, even if they are fishing, they are fishing in the winter to dig ice and fish, seeing such a big wave, it is not reasonable not to panic, people crowded the horse and stepped on the embarrassed exit, just from the pocket-like river valley mouth exit, just listened to a trumpet, suddenly killed a tiger cavalry.

This tiger armored cavalry is like a sharp knife, quickly penetrated the Jin soldiers have been chaotic of the Chinese army, and was divided and surrounded into more than a dozen small pieces, at this time suddenly shouted to kill the sky, and suddenly from all around the dense human heads, all the Liao army rushed towards the Jin soldiers in the rumbling war drums.

Wanyan Ah Gu let out a long sigh, "This battle seems to be lost!" Now there are enemies on all sides, and it seems that they have been surrounded by the Liao army! Today, we can only die on the battlefield! ”

The scene of the battlefield was very chaotic, people shouted horses neighing, the people killed in the battle fell to the muddy and bloody ground, the ownerless war horses ran everywhere, just when Wanyan Agu was desperate, suddenly rushed in from the side and rear A group of men and horses, led by the famous general Wanyan Di Gunai.

Wanyan Di Gunai quickly picked up the position of the Chinese army, and then looked at the terrain and fled in the northeast direction, this time the Jin army was defeated like a mountain, many people lost their armor, flags were thrown everywhere, swords, guns and weapons all over the ground, and fled in the direction of Shangjing under the cover of the Liao army.

Wanyan Di Gunai's cavalry bypassed the canyon from the northwest direction and caught some of the Liao soldiers, but he chose to continue to move forward and prepare to intercept more Liao soldiers in front, who knew that he was lost, and when he finally arrived in the river valley, he was just in time for the defeat of the Jin soldiers, but fortunately he saved Ah Guda's life.

Under the cover of the cavalry, the Liao army pursued it, this time it was the opposite, catching up with the Jin soldiers and running in all directions, while the Liao soldiers were in hot pursuit, but Xiao Ming did not let them continue the pursuit, and soon Ming Jin collected the troops, and the cavalry of the brigade also dismounted, rushing to give the horses water, this rush was busy, and the people and horses were thirsty.

Xiao Ming arranged for people to clean up the battlefield, and on the other hand, he ordered a large group of men and horses to march towards Shangjing, he thought in his heart, after this battle, the people and horses of the Jin Kingdom would definitely give up Shangjing and withdraw!

How do you know that when his men and horses drove to the outside of the capital, they found that the four gates of the Jin soldiers were closed, and the city walls were full of guarded soldiers, and Wanyan Aguta had withdrawn into the city with the remaining thousands of remnants, although in this battle, Xiao Ming almost wiped out the 50,000 cavalry of the Jin State, but now that people are guarding the city with high walls, he has no way for a while.

After returning to Shangjing in shock and anger, he vomited a mouthful of blood angrily, and ordered the Jin soldiers to defend the city, but the Liao army led by Xiao Ming did not attack the city, but only camped under the outer city of Shangjing, and the two sides entered a stage of stalemate.

Within a few days it was November, the weather was getting colder and colder, the north wind was blowing one after another, the lead clouds in the sky were very low, and finally in the middle of one night, the fluttering goose feather snow mixed with the cold north wind fell, and the day had entered the cold season in the north.

Now how to fight in Beijing, Xiao Ming is so worried that he can't eat......!
