Zhao Yanwen's rescue also brought some important information to Xiao Ming, the Uighur army was about 50,000 plus about 70,000 or 80,000 soldiers and horses of the Northern Dynasty of Western Xia, and now there were more than 10,000 people in Yang Qizhong besieging Nitou Mountain, and the other party obviously wanted to eat Yang Qizhong in one bite, and captured the cannon in the other party's hand, because this cannon really made them suffer.

Xiao Ming is not familiar with the terrain of Nitou Mountain, so he can only find the locals to inquire, coupled with Zhao Yanwen's description, Xiao Ming basically already knows where the terrain is, and the battle plan needs to be refined again, he does not have the guards in his hand this time, and he does not have a rifle in his hand, so he has to rely on the primitive cavalry, and it is a heavy cavalry to fight, and the strategy and tactics must be changed.

Judging from the current balance of forces, Yang Qizhong has no cavalry there, and he can't provide Xiao Ming with a condescending impact force, so how to use the terrain is more critical, and he only has 30,000 horses in his hands, which is the general strength of others, so it is definitely not possible to use the tactics of encirclement and annihilation, so he can only use the tactical arrangement of defeat.

When the account was raised the next day, Xiao Ming's orders and arrows were sent out one by one, and the generals of the Golden Legion took orders one by one, but Zhao Yanwen had no combat mission, he was so anxious that he shouted: "Dashuai, why don't you have my mission, I am not injured, I must participate in the battle to rescue General Yang!" ”

Xiao Ming said: "You and your brothers have been fighting hard for several days, and you should have a good rest in the camp." ”

"Handsome! The Western Expeditionary Army was formed by you, and this time it was defeated and lost to you, and this face is earned back by ourselves, how can we rely on others? ”

"General Zhao is too worried, I know what you think, but this time it's almost all about cavalry, and your infantry is still infantry even if you ride on horseback!"

"The marshal doesn't know, General Yang during your absence, the focus of training is the cavalry and archery skills of our infantry, although my infantry is not good at riding, but the kung fu of shooting crossbows on horses is not small, otherwise this breakthrough, although I lost more than 1,000 people, but at least killed more than 1,000 people on the other side, the other party was afraid of our crossbow, so we didn't force it too hard, otherwise we would have finished early!"

"Oh! That is true? Is the same true of General Yang's infantry? Xiao Ming asked.

"The whole army is like that!"

"Hmm!" Xiao Ming lowered his head and pondered for a while: "I'm thinking about how to kill and injure the army more this time, if it is as you said, I have a way!" ”

Zhao Yanwen asked urgently: "What way?" Handsome! ”

Xiao Ming said: "You just follow what I said to carry out the order, this time I will give you an important task!" ……”

"Yes! Dashuai, you can't complete the task, Zhao Mou came to see you! ”

The topography of Nitou Mountain is not complicated, the terrain here is higher, there is a ravine is a passage up the mountain, all around the Gobi Desert, here is just a raised mountain bag, the shape is very similar to a woman's chest, Nitou Mountain is also named, more than 10,000 people in Yang Qizhong are now surrounded on the mountain, surrounded by Uighur coalition forces on all sides, but apart from that ravine, it is very difficult to go up the mountain in other places.

The Uighurs were repulsed by Yang Qizhong after rushing several times, knowing that the terrain was dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, so they no longer made unnecessary sacrifices, and only needed to trap the other party, anyway, they did not have much military food and water, as long as the siege lasted more than ten days, the other side would all be drunk or starved to death.

Since the other side is like a tiger falling into a trap, the Uighurs are not in a hurry, and they even set up camp casually, and there are no rules to speak of. After receiving that Zhao Yanwen's headquarters had been left by an unknown army, the Uighurs were also very vigilant, and they sent several tens of thousands of troops to search around the accident site, but did not find anything that could be done!

However, on the third day, behind the Uighurs, men and horses suddenly appeared in several directions, and the Uighurs were immediately on alert, but when the men and horses in these directions were detected by the Uighur scouts, they were not even a thousand men in any direction.

The Uighurs were furious, the other side was obviously a bluff to scare themselves, if they ignored them, they would definitely harass them in the back and retreat, so that the Uighurs would suffer some losses, and if they sent troops to hunt them down, they would worry that the other party's purpose was to attract their own soldiers and horses to relieve the besieging Yang Qizhong's army.

There were only 3,000 men and horses in three directions, and the horses galloped and raised up the dust that rushed to the sky, and when they approached the Uighurs, they actually used archery throwing to shoot arrows at them, causing casualties in an instant, which was a clear humiliation, and the Uighurs immediately sent a general Yu in each direction, leading 5,000 troops to annihilate the 3,000 men and horses in all three directions.

Seeing the Uighurs coming, the 3,000 turned and fled in the direction they came, scolding them and chasing after them, but as soon as they got close to the enemy, they would shoot down a few people with their crossbows, this tactic was the Mongols' "hanging tail" tactic, but the Uighurs did not know it, they just chased after it, and in a moment they ran out ten miles away.

But at this moment, suddenly they felt that something was not right, because there was a sudden loud vibration on the ground, and a large number of heavily armored cavalry suddenly rushed out in front of them, many of them were wearing golden armor, and the horses were covered with yellow curtains and chain armor......

The commander of the Uighur army at the foot of the Nitou Mountain was very puzzled by the enemy's harassment in three directions, and fled with his own troops, but in less than two hours they actually came back, could they not have thrown off the troops they were pursuing? This bunch of shit! No, the Uighurs were overwhelmed and sent cavalry to suppress them again......

Xiao Ming looked at the corpses all over the ground and the horses running around with an expressionless face, he had seen too many such scenes, and his nerves had become very tough, the five thousand Uighur cavalry in every direction were all wiped out by the ten thousand heavy armored cavalry, the Hetao war horses had extremely strong patience and weight-bearing capacity, and the impact of the powerful heavy armored cavalry quickly tore apart the Uighur formation, and none of the five thousand people ran away!

Zhao Yanwen set out again with his lightly armed crossbowmen, and attracted 5,000 Uighur cavalry for the second time, and the situation was exactly the same in the other three directions, and this kind of killing continued, and the leader of the second wave of Uighurs, General Yu, turned out to be very shrewd, and after feeling deceived, he did not command the men and horses to pursue desperately, but planned to return to the camp, and it was such a decision that saved this man's life.

When the heavy armored cavalry was charging, they actually missed the hundreds of remnants of General Yu's defeated generals and let them flee backwards, Ye Lihong asked Xiao Ming what to do? Xiao Ming pointed his whip and said to everyone: "The enemy's strength advantage has been completely lost, order the cavalry in the other two directions to quickly assemble and press me on the whole line!" ”

Xiao Ming asked everyone to carry forward the spirit of hard work, to fight in a continuous battle, and led an army of 30,000 to press up on the whole front, and all of a sudden, the long sword won the snow, the horse's hooves rolled, the hoofs sounded like thunder, and the dust raised covered the sky and the sun, and from a distance it looked like a huge beast, and rushed up from the front facing the Uighur army with teeth and claws!

In just a few hours, 30,000 Uighurs were divided and wiped out, and now the remaining people, in a hurry, encountered the fierce attack of the Golden Legion, and for a time the killing was everywhere! The Uighurs panicked and were defeated, and the Golden Legion rushed into the enemy's camp and killed and cut down people on sight, and at the same time set fire to the entire Uighur camp, and the entire Uighur camp was turned into hell!

This killing was almost a one-sided result, only the sky was stained red with blood, the dead corpses on the ground were pillows, and the flames were soaring everywhere, Yang Qizhong saw such a scene on the mountain, although he didn't know that it was Xiao Ming who came to save himself, but how could he let go of this opportunity, and immediately commanded more than 10,000 people under his command to quickly rush down the mountain, and soon joined the battle group.

The Uighurs suffered from the enemy, the camp was pierced by the cavalry, the soldiers had no fighting spirit, they would have no fighting spirit, and they had no fighting spirit, which had become a rout, and the remnants of the defeated army would open a bloody road and flee westward.

Xiao Ming immediately stopped him and said: "The battle is not over yet, no need to be polite, my heavy armored cavalry has been fighting for several hours in a row, and the manpower and horsepower are all unbearable, you immediately organize your people to ride all your war horses for me to continue the pursuit!" ”

Yang Qizhong said: "Dashuai, it is certainly pleasant to beat the water dog, but we don't have many horses!" ”

"You don't have what I have, now I will send you five thousand war horses, you will immediately pursue me, if you can't completely destroy the enemy, you must give me more strength to kill!"

Yang Qizhong was overjoyed, and immediately took the order to go, they were trapped on the mountain for a few days, and they were afraid that the whole army would be wiped out if they waited, and the food they brought with them was not much, but they were very recuperating, and it was best to use it to pursue the enemy army at this time, more than 5,000 people turned over and got on their horses, stayed enough for enough crossbow arrows, and pursued them to the west.

It wasn't until late in the evening that Yang Qizhong brought people back and reported to Xiao Ming: "Only a few hundred people on the other side escaped, and the rest either surrendered or were killed!" ”

Xiao Ming asked where were the Uighurs who had surrendered? Yang Qizhong replied that it was too troublesome to take the captives, and it had already been all solved! Xiao Ming was also helpless, Yang Qizhong's murderous aura was too heavy, but this is also the law of survival in troubled times, in this battle, more than 70,000 Uighurs and Western Xia coalition troops were almost wiped out, except for a few hundred people who ran away, all the remaining people were killed!

Xiao Ming felt that it was too much to kill the evil like this! He really felt unbearable, so he ordered that if any enemy surrendered in the future, as long as he was disarmed, no prisoners would be killed, and those who violated the order would be severely punished! The battle was fought so fiercely, and everyone could be regarded as having made meritorious contributions, only Qian Baguang was unhappy, because his artillery did not fire a single shot, which was something that Xiao Ming had never done in the past.

The Battle of Nitou Mountain had a far-reaching impact, and the Golden Army also became famous in the first battle, and the Uighurs hated and feared this army! Call them "razors"! It is said that they kill people like harvesting wheat, all of them are fierce and evil! It's all the devil of the region! Xiao Ming has also become the embodiment of the devil than the legend!

Due to this fiasco, the Uighurs had to retreat west to Shazhou with the emperor of the Western Xia Kingdom, Renzong Li Renxiao, and Zhengliangzhou and Suzhou fell into the hands of Xiao Ming, after this battle, Xiao Ming returned to his division and went straight to Xingqing Mansion, he had to solve Ami's affairs, Ami's ambition was also to rely on Yelu Dashi and Hanlu of Wuhuai, Xiao Ming felt that he was really unwilling to do anything with Ami unless it was just in case.

The Golden Legion marched eastward, and when it just arrived in Xiping Mansion, the news of Xingqing Mansion came, the Empress Ami of Western Liao was defeated and fled, and it was Li Cunzhong who defeated him, this kind of change made many people incomprehensible, especially Xiao Ming, because Ami still had at least 10,000 iron cavalry of Hanlu in his hands, plus Yelu Dashi's soldiers and horses, how could Li Cunzhong escape from Xingqing Mansion? It's incredible!

It wasn't until he received a letter from Cao Ju that he learned what had happened......
