Yang Peng told the soldiers to sleep early at night, ready to meet the enemy the next day. Early the next morning, the horns sounded in unison in the Khitan Dazhai, and more than 10,000 Khitan soldiers ran out of the camp and lined up in front. The Khitan soldiers in gray armor uniforms lined up in a phalanx, with a small formation for every 100 people and a large formation for every 1,000 people, with a neat military appearance and a very spectacular look.

After the Khitan soldiers stood in formation, the weaving golden dragon slowly moved and moved from the middle of the Chinese army to the middle of the array. Yang Peng raised the binoculars to observe, and saw Ye Yu Hongguang riding silently on his horse, and the Khitan generals on the left and right were also silent one by one, obviously the strong crossbow in Dagou City yesterday made them very depressed. This time, the Khitans entered the customs, won consecutive battles, and did not taste the taste of defeat, Dagou was the first city to let the Khitans suffer great losses.

Behind the array, more than a hundred ladders were carried out. The ladders were five or six meters long and more than five meters high, not heavy, and could be carried by twenty followers and auxiliaries, so that they could walk very quickly. These ladders were built by the Khitan soldiers yesterday, and they were originally intended to be used after the shield cart filled the holes outside the city wall. The Khitan people didn't expect that the shield cart couldn't stop the long arrows of the strong crossbow on the city wall at all, so they simply pushed the cloud ladder directly to attack the city.

If the ladder is erected on the wall of the big ditch, the Khitan soldiers can jump directly on the city wall from the ladder. Ye Hongguang had seen the power of the crossbow on the city wall yesterday, and knew that the shield cart standing still in front of the pit was a live target. But he thinks that the fast-moving ladder will not be hit by the crossbow, and as long as the Khitan warriors climb the city wall, the city will also fall with a drum!

Carrying the ladder, the Khitan array pressed to four miles north of the northern city wall and stopped. For the sake of prudence, Ye Yan Hongguang did not let the army attack immediately, but let the three hundred infantry armor and horse armor cover the two hundred auxiliary soldiers, carrying ten cloud ladders to test the siege. Although Yaren Hongguang is known for his bravery, he also knows that he can't be reckless in battle. There are so many strong crossbows in this big ditch, who knows if there are other means, it is better to test it.

Seeing that the Khitan sent light soldiers out to test it, Yang Peng smiled. It seems that yesterday's strong crossbow frightened the Khitan dogs, and they didn't dare to rush up and attack the city directly, but sent light soldiers out to test the bottom of the ditch. If Yang Peng let the musketeers shoot with all their strength at two hundred meters and easily repel the five hundred Khitan troops, Ye Yan Hongguang would definitely turn around and flee, and never come to attack Dagou again.

Yang Peng was not ready to let go of Ye Yu Hongguang so easily, he wanted to earn a battle merit on these 10,000 Khitan soldiers. He's going to trick Yaren Hongguang into pressing all the chips up, and then eat a big one. Five hundred Khitan soldiers who were tentatively attacking carried ten ladders and walked quickly to the north wall of the ditch. One hundred and fifty meters into the city wall, they encountered large and small potholes, which they could only walk around. Between the potholes and the potholes were large and small horses and antlers, and the Tartars struggled to remove these obstacles before they slowly approached seventy-five meters below the city wall.

Seventy-five meters in a straight line, they had to go around at least one hundred and fifty meters before they approached the city wall. The strong crossbows in the city did not shoot. The men and horses of the Khitan soldiers detoured between the traps and the pits, and were pulled into a long snake formation, with the horse armor and foot armor in front and the ladder behind. After the first thirty people in the long snake formation attacked within fifty steps of the city wall, they immediately set up their longbows and began to shoot arrows at the city wall. Khitan arrows are known for their heaviness, soaked in human and animal feces, so they are poisonous, and they basically lose their combat effectiveness when they are shot.

However, fifty steps was still far away, and more than 30 Khitan soldiers shot a round, only hitting the four Tiger Ben soldiers behind the city wall. Seeing the four soldiers being shot and wounded, Yang Peng felt very painful. These are all soldiers trained by themselves, even if one is shot, Yang Peng will also feel uncomfortable.

"Hang the hanger!" Hanging is a device for ancient city defense to defend against bows and arrows. Make a wooden frame on each battlement, with two feet inside the city, and the rack hangs outside the city close to the edge of the battlement, and covers it with a cup blanket, which is wet with water. Such a device is blocked from the battlement, and the bow and arrow cannot be shot.

Five hundred hung up, and the arrows of the Khitan soldiers could not be shot. The Khitan soldiers saw that the hanging household was hanging on the Dagou City, and they no longer shot arrows. Five hundred Khitan soldiers walked slowly with ten ladders, and after a long time, they finally came to the foot of the city wall. Ten ladders were erected, and over the moat, the ladders were erected directly to the city walls. As long as the Khitan soldiers' vests and infantry armor climb up the ladder, they can rush to the head of the big ditch.

Fifty vests took the lead and climbed up to the city. "Throw the rolling stones!" "Pour the gold juice!"

The fighting ability of the Tiger Ben Regiment is far inferior to that of the Khitan soldiers, and the arrival of the Khitan soldiers in the city will cause chaos, of course Yang Peng can't let these Khitan soldiers climb to the top of the city, and immediately let the troops serve these five hundred Khitan soldiers with city defense equipment. A large number of rolling stones and sassalwoods were smashed from the city, killing more than 20 Khitan soldiers who tried to enter the city under the city walls. The golden juice was boiling dung, which was poured on the bodies of the Dengxian Tartars, and burned these Khitan soldiers to the point that their skin and flesh were open. These feces are poisonous, and even more toxic when heated, and the burned wounds will rot because of the toxins in the feces, and they will not heal at all, so they can only be amputated or even waiting for death.

Before the fifty vests of the ascendant touched the city, more than 20 were killed and burned by the city wall by the city defense equipment. The remaining more than 400 Khitan soldiers did not have the determination to die under the city wall, and they all knew that Ye Yu Hongguang was using them to test the enemy's situation, and they were not willing to rush with their lives. They looked at the four thousand Great Song soldiers standing on the city wall, and did not dare to rush again.

More than 20 vests that were still alive on the ladder jumped off the ladder and fled back and forth. When the other Khitan soldiers saw that the vests had fled, they also dispersed in a hurry, and fled en masse.

Yang Peng looked at the fleeing Khitan soldiers and smiled, and secretly said that he could deceive the Khitan soldiers now. Sure enough, Ye Yan Hongguang observed from a distance, and felt that the city defense measures of Dagou were ordinary, but they were relatively well prepared. In addition to the strong crossbow, there are no other powerful means in the city, nothing more than rolling stones and wood. Although there are many traps outside the city, you can just go around them, and not many people will die if they are shot by a strong crossbow on the way around. The Rolling Stone Tree is limited, and it is still possible to attack such a city with 12,000 troops.

The Great Liao Kingdom fought all the year round, and the soldiers were all killed in the sea of corpses and blood, and their combat effectiveness was far from being matched by the Song soldiers who could not eat enough. As soon as the warriors climbed the wall to open the gap, the Song army would collapse. Yesterday more than 600 warriors were left under this city, and if they don't take this city, I'm sorry for the heroic souls of those warriors. If this city is abandoned, the prestige of the Khitan army entering the pass this time will be damaged.

Ye Yu Hongguang is a brave and brave general, since he followed the Empress Dowager Xiao, he must be in battle and attack first, so he got the most glorious duke title of this foreign surname courtier. On weekdays, Empress Dowager Xiao attaches more importance to him than to ordinary generals. He didn't believe that such an ordinary small county town in front of him could stop him. The red light of Yari and the few envoys glanced at each other. Although the expressions of several envoys were serious, they still had the confidence to take the city, and their eyes were very optimistic. Ye Yan Hongguang no longer hesitated, and shouted loudly:

"Attack with all your troops!" The horns sounded, the drums thundered, and the 12,000 Khitan soldiers shouted loudly, carrying the ladder and running forward, rushing towards the north wall of the big ditch. Looking from the wall of Dagou, I saw smoke and dust billowing out, and the Khitan army was rushing towards this side like a gray ocean. When the 12,000 Khitan soldiers advanced to 200 meters outside the city wall, the overhangs on the city wall were removed, and 166 strong crossbows began to fire.

One hundred and sixty-six powerful crossbows were like the scythes of death, crashing into the Khitan soldiers. Some of the long arrows crashed into the bodies of the Khitan soldiers before they landed, and the long arrows immediately pierced the evil body, smashing out countless bloody mud and plasma, and then bounced forward quickly on the ground, bounced again, until they hit the body of the next Khitan soldier. The Khitan soldiers who were beaten through the stomach immediately died. Even if a hand or foot is touched by a long arrow, it will be cut off immediately. The screams immediately sounded in the Khitan soldiers, and more than 100 Khitan soldiers were hit by long arrows and fell in a pool of blood.

The Khitan soldiers had long known that they would be shot by long arrows, and they were quite calm. Under the shouting of several envoys who rushed to the front line to command, the Khitan soldiers withstood the first round of blows from the Tiger Ben Regiment and rushed to a hundred and fifty meters outside the city wall. Walking here, the ground was already full of potholes, and the Khitan soldiers began to bypass the potholes and move forward between the potholes.

Yang Peng didn't let the riflemen shoot immediately, Yang Peng wanted to catch a big one this time. There are five hundred battlements on the north wall of the big ditch, plus the firing holes on the women's wall, and there are a thousand firing positions on the north wall. Yang Peng asked the soldiers to stand behind the firing position in groups of four, ready to shoot in four rounds. At this time, the first row of soldiers on the shooting hole had already held their breath and aimed at the Khitan army that was approaching a little bit, and just waited for the order to be passed down and pressed the trigger.

When the Khitan soldiers who rushed to the front rushed to a hundred meters below the city wall, Yang Peng shouted: "Shoot!" The horn on the city gate immediately sounded, conveying Yang Peng's order to the whole army. The first row of soldiers at the firing position aimed at the target a hundred meters away and fired their flintlock rifles. A thousand conical bullets shot out from the city wall like dense raindrops, striking at the 1,000 Khitan soldiers in the lead.

Yang Peng's soldiers have been trained for a long time and are impressively accurate at a distance of 100 meters. More than 800 bullets hit the target in a single salvo, and the 800 Khitan soldiers slammed into a slam and blood bloomed on their bodies. More than three hundred vests were hit. At a distance of 100 meters, the potential energy of the bullet after breaking through the two layers of armor is still considerable, and it is already able to damage the body of the horse armor. While such injuries are often not fatal, they can also cause the vests to bleed from their wounds. After being shot, the vests did not dare to move violently to tear the wounds, except for a few extremely strong, most of the bulleted vests have lost the ability to charge.

They either held themselves on and could not move, or they fell to the ground, screaming in a voice. In addition, more than 400 infantry armor who rushed in front were also shot. These infantry armor only wore dark armor inlaid with iron plates, where could they withstand the close-range shooting of bullets? The bullet easily pierced through the armor and entered the flesh beneath the armor. The bullet was unevenly stressed during the armor-piercing process, and after piercing the body, it rotated irregularly at high speed, like a juicer tearing at the body, stirring all the human organs encountered by the juicer movement into blood.

The 400 step armor was like 400 sandbags, and it fell to the ground with a plop. The screams rang out one after another, mixed with the blood spurting from the bodies of the wounded and the dead, leaking intestines and falling severed limbs, forming a terrifying scene that made people turn pale. Walking a little behind, the horses and infantry who were lucky enough not to be shot were full of disbelief - there was such a fierce weapon in this world, which could kill people from seventy paces away.

The Khitan general Ye Hongguang, who was standing two miles away on horseback, saw the scene on the front line, and his body was shocked. Why didn't the Great Song Dynasty have a fire gun when he tested the Song army just now? Tricked yourself? Why did Da Song lie to himself? Could it be that the Great Song Dynasty had the confidence to win, and wanted to deceive himself into investing more troops in order to accumulate more military exploits? Why is Da Song Jun so confident? Could it be that this firebolt can shoot continuously?

Ye Yan Hongguang thought about it, and secretly said that it was not good, and his face was already a miserable white. More than 800 people in front of the Khitan soldiers were beaten down, and the hundreds of soldiers in the back ran forward a few steps in some panic, and walked to the dead man who was bleeding all over the ground.

However, they guessed wrong, and the second salvo on the walls began five seconds later. There was a crackling of gunshots, white smoke rose from the city walls, and a thousand bullets came at a rapid pace, and the horse armor in the front row that was ready to take the lead fell in pieces like weeds on a lawnmower. The bullet hit the stomach, and the stomach was a bloody paste. If the bullet hits the chest and goes into the heart, it will immediately cost you your life. When the bullet hits the face, half of the head will be knocked off, and there will be no more life. The bullets hit the hands and feet, and the bones were also immediately discounted, and even the hands were broken on the spot.

More than 800 Khitan soldiers were killed or wounded and fell in a pool of blood, and the area of 100 meters outside the city wall seemed to have become a forbidden area of death, and those who entered were either dead or injured. The half-dead wounded fell to the ground and shouted, and the shouts that made the ears tremble hit the morale of the Khitan soldiers hard. The Khitan soldiers behind didn't dare to rush forward, they turned their heads to look at the envoy who was in the battle, to see if the envoy was staring at him, if he escaped backwards, could he pick up a life?

Within a few seconds of their hesitation, another burst of gunfire rang out on the walls, and the third salvo began. This is no longer war, this is a massacre. A crackling sound of gunfire fell, and another 800 people fell more than a hundred meters from the city wall. The Khitan vest with more than 300 bullets was okay, the two layers of armor kept them alive, and the wound could heal as long as the bullet was removed, and it was not a serious injury. However, although there were no serious injuries, the bullet also passed through the armor and into the flesh, and it was obviously impossible to charge on foot with such a wound. They stopped moving forward, stood still with their wounds covered, or simply fell to the ground.

And the infantry armor with more than 400 bullets was not so lucky. Blood spurted from the bullet's pierced body, gushing out like a spring. The strength disappeared rapidly along with the gushing blood, except for the dozens of people who were hit in the hands and feet and were not killed, and the other more than 300 infantry armor who were shot quickly died on the road in the middle of the tunnel.

The Khitan soldiers were defeated. What kind of weapon is this? It can kill people from seventy or eighty paces away, and the rate of fire is so fast, and there are so many of them. This rushing up is no longer a fight, this is a death. rushed to the city wall on this winding road, I am afraid that the Khitan soldiers who rushed there were already dead.

The Khitan soldier Zhang Huang shouted and fled back and forth. They had lost their fighting spirit, and now they were far more afraid of the rifles on the walls than they were about the begging envoys. The conquest was a shooting in a row, and the fire guns on the city wall were shot in a queue, and the terrifying level was not an order of magnitude at all.

The Khitan soldiers, who were still menacing just now, were like a sea water at low tide at this time, turned around, and fled in the direction of the camp in a panic. The envoy shot feathered arrows to stop the deserters from retreating, but to no avail. Ye Yu Hongguang stood not far from the battlefield and looked at the soldiers who had collapsed on the battlefield, his face was pale and his heart was like ashes, and he couldn't say a word. This battle was lost miserably, and so many warriors were lost. Under the enemy city, the whole army was routed, and the soldiers no longer dared to attack the city. This is probably the biggest loss of the Great Liao State in the past ten years. With such a big loss, the emperor will not spare himself, it seems that his title is going to be completely deprived.

Which Great Song army are you facing? How can there be such terrifying combat effectiveness? Ye Yu Hongguang defeated too many Song troops: During the Battle of Yingzhou during the reign of Taizong, Ye Yu Hongguang defeated the Song army's Western Route Army and Northern Route Army. Every time he encountered the Song army, Ye Yan Hongguang could defeat it, and there was never an accident. Song Jun is synonymous with a sick man in the eyes of Ye Yanhongguang! Ye Yan Hongguang never thought that he would encounter such a Song army on the wall of Dagou, these Song troops were so strong, they killed and injured more than a thousand elite warriors of the Xi Army in one fell swoop! How is the army on this city wall completely different from the Song army he has seen?

Where did this Song Jun come from? There the red light of Yelu lamented the casualties of the Khitan army, while the riflemen on the city walls were still firing, they shifted their positions and began the fourth volley. Yang Peng let the Khitan soldiers go to 100 meters before ordering to shoot, just to make them have no escape.

The Khitan soldiers could not run fast on the winding road between the potholes, and they were still within the range of the musketeers. The fourth salvo began. One hundred and twenty meters away from the rear of the Khitan soldiers, seven hundred flintlock rifles spat out tongues of fire and sprayed deadly bullets at the Khitan soldiers fleeing for their lives. The conical bullet pierced their armor and helmets, and another 500 Khitan soldiers were brought down. Two hundred staggered horses had been shot, many of them had already been shot several times, bleeding so much that they fell to the ground and died. More than 200 infantry armor were also shot, and the bullet sent a bloody spark on the armor, which penetrated through the armor and burrowed into their bodies, killing them in the land of this big ditch.

A "Sharephashku" was shot in the thigh leg bone, and the left leg bone was immediately broken, and he fell to the ground with a scream. Assigned to Paishku is an officer second only to the envoy of recruitment, and he is also a senior official above 100 people on weekdays. However, at this time, countless Khitan soldiers ran past him, but no one cared about him, let alone came up to carry him.

The one who got it gritted his teeth and got up, screaming miserably, while jumping on one leg in the direction of the camp to flee for his life. The Khitan soldiers are still on the run, and the massacres continue. When the last part of the Khitan soldiers fled to a distance of one hundred and forty meters from the city wall, the second round of shooting began, and another thousand shots rang out. The fleeing Khitan soldiers fell to the ground one by one like reeds blown down by a strong wind.

An escaped vest was hit in the back of the head, and its skull was shattered with a thud, and the brain and blood burst out together, and fell into the hole in front of him. An escaped foot armor was shot in the left shoulder, and the bullet pierced his body and spun and thrust, shattering the bone in his left shoulder, leaving his left hand completely useless, and he fell to the ground with a scream.

A vest that had been shot in the abdomen was running away with his stomach covering, he had just been shot in the stomach, his face was pale due to excessive blood loss, one foot was deep and one foot was shallow, but he was suddenly hit in the back by a flying bullet. The bullet broke through two layers of armor and stabbed him in the left back, sending a blood flower spurting out of his back. After all, he couldn't hold it anymore and fell to the ground clutching his back.

The horse armor and infantry armor that rushed in front were originally the most proud warriors of the Khitan, but at this time, like a refugee who had been driven away, he saw wolves rushing through the big and small pits, and hundreds of people died in the land of this big ditch. At this time, the Khitan infantry had already killed 2,000 people, and almost all of the 2,000 strong infantry armor of the 40,000-man team died under Dagou City.

Whether you are weak or brave, you are equal in front of the flintlock rifle, and you can solve the problem with one shot.

If one shot doesn't solve the problem, then two. Finally, the forward of the Khitan soldiers escaped from the pit and fled a hundred steps outside the city wall, and the fleeing Khitan soldiers looked back, thinking that they were safe.

But the rifles on the city wall began to shoot again a hundred paces away. There was another scream, and more than 600 Khitan soldiers were shot. The mood of the Khitan soldiers can no longer be described as panicked, but outright fear. The one standing on the city wall didn't seem to be an enemy, but a killing god, who could kill people a hundred paces away! The Khitan soldiers fled frantically back and forth as if they had seen a ghost.

The ground was littered with the weapons and flags of dead Khitan soldiers. The corpses of the Khitan soldiers were piled up on the road at the edge of the pit, and the blood flowing from the corpses was gathered together, trickling like a stream. Many Khitan soldiers tripped over these corpses on the way to escape and fell to the ground with a clatter.

The forward of the Khitan soldiers fled to two hundred meters outside the city wall, and the Song army on the city wall was still shooting, like a god general! The last round of shooting was aimed at the Khitan deserters at a distance of one hundred and ninety meters. Bullets rained down and hit another six hundred Khitan soldiers. The two hundred men in their heavily armored vests were shot, but by this time they had fled to a safe distance, and the bullet had little penetration after penetrating the two layers of armor, so they were slightly injured this time. But more than 300 unarmored followers were unlucky, and they were shot by bullets in their bodies and their organs were shattered, and they vomited blood and died one by one.

Song Jun can actually kill people at this distance? Is this still the army of the Great Song Dynasty? The Khitan soldiers had lost a little courage, they threw away their flags, and ran backwards just to pick up their lives. The 8,000 Khitan soldiers who are still alive are like 8,000 crabs retreating into the sea, without any order. Bound by the powerless messengers who could not stop the rout, they ran into the camp a few miles away.

Ye Hongguang and several generals rode horses and stood in the middle of the routs that receded like a tide, their faces were pale and speechless, and they could only sigh. Where are these fleeing routs still like the warriors of the Great Liao Kingdom, and where are they like the victorious army that swept through the Mobei of Liaodong and the Great Song Dynasty? Now these routs are like a rabble that has been robbed of their souls, as if the invincible devil is on the city wall.

The Song army on the city wall, why is it so strong? This is the army of the Great Song Dynasty? It is the nine-sided soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty, who are known as strong soldiers, and Ye Yan Hongguang is confident that he will go down with one drum. But when he met this Song soldier on the city wall, he could only be beaten. In this battle, the losses caused by the North Recruitment were staggering. Especially the two thousand step armor that rushed in front! These infantry armor consisted of only a layer of cotton armor inlaid with iron sheets, and suffered the heaviest losses, and almost all of them were killed under the city. Two thousand step armor, all the warriors of the Great Liao Kingdom, all gone!

The elite vests are in slightly better shape. They relied on two layers of heavy armor, suffered slightly fewer losses, were killed 600 men, and more than 100 were too wounded to fight. Many of the followers who followed the infantry also died, and a full 1,200 fell under the city. In this siege battle, the Great Liao Kingdom lost nearly 4,000 warriors.

These are all warriors who were killed in the sea of corpses and blood, and they were all folded under this Song army city. After this battle, the Northern Envoy was almost crippled. Ye Yan Hongguang thought about it, and a pair of old eyes became redder and redder, and finally two tears flowed out. I don't know what will happen to the news of the emperor's victory? Is it so shocked that he can't speak, do you want to whip yourself with a leather whip in anger, or shed tears for the warriors of the Great Liao Kingdom like yourself? He was a Khitan nobleman, and he couldn't attack the city for the Great Liao State, but because of the poor anticipation of the enemy, the 4,000 Great Liao warriors were lost under a lonely city.

It's a shame that he was listed among the Khitan nobles, and in the end it ended like this. Yar's red tears rolled and couldn't be stopped for a long time. The envoy on the side sighed and said slowly: "Grandpa, the defeated soldiers have fled into the camp, let's retreat too!" The red light closed her eyes and stopped her tears, and it took a long time to open her eyes and turn the horse's head.

If you want to know what happens next, let's see the next breakdown.
