In the blink of an eye, the distance between the two sides was only a few dozen steps, Yanyun cavalry threw a javelin violently, and in an instant, the Khitan army cavalry turned over on their backs, the horses neighed, and the momentum of the Khitan army's charge was instantly reduced a lot. Yanyun cavalry fiercely kicked into the middle of the Jin army's cavalry, spear assassination, knife slashing, flesh and blood flying, Khitan cavalry fell off their horses one after another. In an instant, the horses of the two sides staggered, and Ma Qiang saw that the enemy brigade had retreated more than 100 steps, lined up in formation, and had no chance, so he immediately gave up the plan to attack the enemy's main force, and led his cavalry to turn and rush into Hejian Mansion.

The right wing of the Khitan Army, which had just had a confrontation with Yanyun War Cavalry, returned to the middle of the large array, and the leading general shouted to Sali with trepidation: "It's amazing! After a round of charge, our army lost more than 3,000 people! ”

Xiao Sali frowned and said, "This is the light cavalry of Yanyun's First Legion, I didn't expect them to come!" Then his heart moved, and he turned to the scout officer and said, "Sprinkle all the scouts at once, maybe there are enemy troops nearby!" The scout officer answered and gave an order to the scouts under his command, and the scouts immediately rushed out in all directions.

Ma Qiang led the first army of Yanyun to rush into Hejian Mansion, Kou Yan immediately led his subordinates to greet him, and the soldiers and civilians in the city also rushed to watch, all of them were very happy and excited. Kou Yan recognized Ma Qiang and said with great joy: "General Ma, you are here!" Glancing behind Ma Qiang and the others, he only saw nearly 10,000 battle horses, and couldn't help frowning slightly, and asked, "General Ma, why are there only these people here?" ”

Ma Qiang turned over and dismounted, and said, "Follow me!" Immediately ran towards the city wall, Kou Yan and the others hurriedly followed. Everyone came to the city wall and looked out of the city according to Ma Qiang's gaze, but they only saw the figure of the Khitan army's war horse, and everyone couldn't help but be a little confused in their hearts.

Suddenly, billowing smoke and dust rose from the west, and at the same time there was a rumbling sound, only to see a large army rushing from west to east at full speed, two battle flags flying in the wind, one side embroidered with the word 'Yanyun', the other side embroidered with the words 'First Army', a large army of iron armor, murderous, it is the first army in the Yanyun army that is the world's might. Kou Yan and the others' eyes lit up and they were overjoyed, and Kou Yan said excitedly: "It's the First Legion!" Ma Qiang said: "You hold the city!" Then he led his own soldiers down the city wall, ordered to open the city gate, and led his war cavalry to run out of the city again, and lined up against the city wall to form a battle array.

Xiao Sali saw the smoke and dust billowing and the army like a tide, and he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, he really didn't understand, how could Yan Yunjun mobilize the army? Isn't Yanyun short of food and grass? Suddenly, a wave of fear surged in Xiao Sali's heart, and he immediately put this inexplicable fear behind him, determined to take advantage of the current unstable foothold of the First Legion to defeat them in one fell swoop! As soon as he thought of this, he immediately ordered: "Xiao Da Buye, you have 20,000 war horses to contain the enemy war horses!" Xiao Da did not promise to make a promise, and immediately led his 20,000 war horses to approach Ma Qiang's 10,000 war horses.

Xiao Sa drank and said to another general: "Ye Kui, the 20,000 war cavalry under your command should take the lead in attacking the enemy army, and you must take advantage of the opportunity when the enemy army has no time to form a formation to attack the enemy army in one fell swoop!" Ye Kui was a fierce general with a steel face full of needles and beards, dark skin, and a thick and fierce general, who listened to the command of Sali and drunk, immediately responded to the promise, and shouted at the soldiers under his command: "Follow me!" Immediately, he led his 20,000 war cavalry to break away from the brigade and rushed towards the main force of Yanyun's First Legion, which was rushing.

The iron hooves were surging like a tide, stirring up smoke and dust in the sky, and swept towards the main force of the First Army! At this time, the main force of the First Army was still in the process of marching, and in this case, it was suddenly attacked by the enemy's war cavalry, and it was impossible to have time to line up to meet the enemy in terms of historical experience! When Kou Yan and the others on the city wall saw this scene, they all raised their hearts to their throats!

Xiang Danian, the commander of the First Legion, reined in his horse, raised his mace, and shouted: "Stop advancing, line up to meet the enemy!" ”

The officers and men of the First Army immediately stopped advancing, and then the officers and men of each battalion quickly began to line up. Not long after, Ye Kui led 20,000 war cavalry to rush to less than two hundred steps in front of Yan Yunjun, but suddenly saw the smoke and dust in front of him disperse, and a large array as solid as a mountain actually appeared in front of him! Ye Kui and the others were amazed, they never dreamed that Yan Yunjun could set up a strict formation in such a short period of time?!

Ye Kui was ruthless and ordered the army to charge and break the enemy. The 20,000 warriors howled, like a horde of wild beasts that pounced on their prey, running faster, surging and overwhelming!

Many Yanyun soldiers raised their crossbows and pulled the trigger suddenly, only to hear a loud buzzing sound, and the dense rain of arrows roared away against the tide of the enemy. The momentum of the Khitan army's charge did not weaken much, and it continued to rush violently! At this time, the roar of the Khitan soldiers came clearly, and it could be heard that they were completely crazy, and the bloodthirsty and violent roar would be heartbroken if they were replaced by other armies! However, they faced the First Army of the Yanyun Army, and they were unmoved by the terrifying momentum of the Khitan Army's violent and bloodthirsty, as if a light breeze was blowing on the hills, and they didn't feel it at all.

Yan Yunjun designed the enemy cavalry in a three-stage shooting method, and after only one round of shooting, the enemy cavalry had already rushed to forty or fifty paces in front of him. I saw that the Khitan army's war cavalry fired arrows one after another, and the rain of arrows fell into the Yanyun army, but they were blocked by countless shields, and the Khitan army's cavalry attack had almost no effect!

Some of the Yanyun soldiers put down their shields, picked up their crossbows, and fired arrows at the enemy cavalry, and the crossbow arrows like locusts flew towards the enemy cavalry. When the Khitan army saw such a scene suddenly, they couldn't help but be shocked, and before they could react, they turned over on their backs, and the forward line was in chaos, and half of the momentum of the charge was unloaded. However, the Khitan army war cavalry has rushed here, just like the sharp arrows from the string are impossible to turn back, the brave Khitan army war horses roared and continued to rush up against the oncoming arrow rain, there is really a momentum of no return!

The tide-like Khitan army cavalry crashed heavily into the Yanyun defensive front! In the midst of a huge crash, the defense line of Yanyun Giant Shield only trembled, and it was not broken through by the Khitan army cavalry at all, but the impact of the Khitan army's war cavalry quickly attenuated!

The spears behind the giant shield defense line stabbed out together, and the Khitan army cavalry in the vicinity was poked to the ground one after another. Immediately, the defensive front of the front opened, and thousands of tower-like soldiers brandished Mo knives with cold light and killed them, and entered the middle of the Khitan army war horses. The Khitan soldiers fought back one after another, but the scimitar spear hit the opponent's heavy armor and bounced off one after another, only arousing a little spark, and the opponent's counterattack cut them to pieces!

Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, Xiao Yekui calmed down and hurriedly ordered his subordinates to retreat. The Khitan army cavalry quickly disengaged from contact, and at this moment, the Yanyun army array shot arrows like a torrential rain, and the Khitan army cavalry behind was shot so that people turned on their backs, and the other Khitan soldiers hurriedly fled.

Xiao Yekui led his war cavalry back to the middle of the army, Xiao Yekui said with trepidation: "Those guys are so tightly guarded, we can't break the formation at all!" Xiao Sali frowned and said, "I saw it!" I didn't expect that Yan Yunjun could change from a marching state to a fighting state in such a short period of time! It really deserves to be the best soldier in the world, the division of tigers and wolves! Xiao Yekui asked, "General, what should I do now?" ”

Sa Liyu thought for a while, glanced at the Yan Yun army who was approaching in formation, and frowned: "We don't have any certainty in fighting a positional battle with Yan Yun army, and the order will go down, and the army will temporarily retreat into the camp." The herald immediately gave the order, and a short trumpet sounded. The main war cavalry retreated first, and then the Khitan army war cavalry that forced Yanyun to retreat also retreated. Yan Yun saw that there was no chance to take advantage of it, so he did not pursue.

Yan Yun's army drove into the city one after another. Kou Yan saw Xiang Danian and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him. Xiang Danian turned over and dismounted and returned a salute. Kou Yan said with great joy: "I didn't expect the First Legion to come!" I thought it would be difficult to mobilize the army due to the problem of food and grass! ”

Xiang Danian laughed and said, "The eldest brother ordered Zhang Ping and his wife to buy a large amount of grain and grass from the Song people, and the grain and grass are no longer a problem!" Let me tell you, not only our First Legion is coming, but the Sixth and Seventh Legions are also on their way, and I believe it won't be long before we arrive! Kou Yan was overjoyed and said, "In this way, there will be an army of 200,000!" Coupled with the more than 100,000 soldiers and horses who are still remaining in the sixteen states of Yanyun, there are more than 300,000 troops, although it is still difficult to counterattack in the face of the 600,000 troops of the Khitan army, but it must be able to stabilize the defense line! ”

Xiang Danian patted Kou Yan's shoulder and said with a smile: "Although you have been following the eldest brother for a long time, you don't know the eldest brother at all!" Big brother will never just think about how to defend, but will also fight back! Tell you, when I came, I heard Han Bing's sister-in-law say that the 200,000 soldiers of the directly subordinate legion have received an order from the eldest brother and are ready to launch a big attack! "The directly subordinate legion is the officer directly under the commander of Yang Peng, the major legions of Yanyun, from the first to the ninth legion, the posts are fixed, but the directly subordinate legion is not like this, the direct legion was only 50,000 at the beginning, but now it has swelled to 400,000 people, including the original Yang family army system 100,000, Cao Jun system 50,000, Gao Hu system 50,000, these 400,000 directly subordinate legion soldiers are the real elite main force of Yanyun army!

When Kou Yan heard this, he was overjoyed at first, and then said worriedly: "I'm afraid that our current enemy is not only the Khitan army!" He glanced at Xiang Danian, pulled Xiang Danian aside, and whispered: "Not long ago, I received news that the Long Island Water Village of our naval army was broken by the Japanese people!" ……”

Xiang Danian suddenly heard the news that the Changdao Water Village was attacked by the Japanese people, and he was taken aback, and said in disbelief: "How is this possible? Our trolls defeated? After a pause, he raised his eyebrows, "Where did the Japanese people come from?" ”

Kou Yan frowned and said, "The Japanese were hiding soldiers before!" They are trying to hide their water army, just to give us a fatal blow at the most opportune time! We were careless, that's why there will be the defeat of Long Island! Xiang Danian was a little anxious, and couldn't help but scold: "Fuck! ”

Kou Yan said: "There is one more thing, the elite of the 100,000 Japanese army landed on the east coast of Chuzhou under the leadership of the eldest son of the Japanese Taizheng Minister Ping Qingsheng, Ping Chongsheng, and is storming Chuzhou!" Now, the Cheng Shijie brothers are leading 30,000 soldiers of the Fifth Army to defend Chuzhou, and I heard that the battle was very hard! I'm just afraid ......"

Xiang Danian waved his hand and said categorically: "Worry about a fart!" The Cheng Shijie brothers are brave and strategic, and the Japanese don't want to break through Chuzhou! Seeing that Kou Yan was still worried, he said angrily: "Don't worry about the left and the right!" I don't believe that there is anyone in this world who is the opponent of the big brother! Kou Yan nodded and said, "I also believe that the eldest brother is the number one hero in the world!" It's just that the gods also have time to nap! After a pause, he frowned and said: "Now it's not only the Khitans and the Japanese who are in trouble with us, I'm worried that the Song people, the Tubo people, and even the Western Liao people may take this opportunity to make trouble!" In addition, we are not stable internally! There was actually a time to assassinate King Yan in Tianjing New City before, and not long ago, when the earth was shaking, Xiao Yu and others openly rebelled, fortunately, Lord Yelu and General Xiao Feng were loyal, otherwise the consequences would be really unimaginable! ”

Xiang Danian raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay, okay!" There's a for all of this! Don't you know that Big Brother? It's just that the eldest brother didn't expect it, didn't you sisters-in-law think of it? Don't bother with that! You can think of it, big brother can think of it, big brother has been arranged now! I think the intention of the eldest brother should be to solve the threat of the Khitans first, and then use troops against the Japanese! The meal has to be eaten in one bite, things have to be done step by step, if you put everything in your head at once, your brain will be confused, and you can still think of a fart solution! ”

Kou Yan looked at Xiang Danian with a surprised face and said, "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect General Xiang to have this opinion!" Xiang Danian laughed and said, "I'm a rough person, it's so possible to think of this, this is what the eldest brother said!" ”

Kou Yan nodded and said, "King Yan's words are no longer right!" He took a long breath and said with a smile: "I think I will honestly carry out the order, so I don't have to think about it." ”……

His gaze turned back to the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun. Ye Hu Cheng led the army to Danzhou in a hurry, but found that Danzhou had already been empty. The ruined city was empty, and there was half a figure there. Seeing this scene, Yelu Hucheng was very annoyed, he originally wanted to annihilate Liu Zhiliang's Third Legion in one fell swoop, but he didn't expect that the other party would not come to collide with him head-on.

The general Zheng Shilong rushed over and reported: "King Qiyu, all the grain and grass stored here by our army have been destroyed, but the enemy army does not know where to go. ”

Ye Hu Cheng was annoyed in his heart, scolded him, and then said very self-reproachfully: "I was too careless, I didn't expect the enemy army to raid my grain and grass transfer base!" Zheng Shilong said: "The king is actually not careless, but Yanyun people are too cunning!" Who would have thought that Liu Zhiliang would dare not retreat when our army's 300,000 war cavalry attacked from all sides, but attacked Danzhou! Ye Hu Cheng said angrily: "I didn't think of it, it's careless, it's my fault!" Zheng Shilong didn't dare to say anything more.

Yelu Hucheng pondered, "Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for them to hide their whereabouts!" They must have traveled day and night, and through the mountains and forests, to avoid the detection of our army's war horses and scouts! At this point, I felt that this must be the case, otherwise, it would be impossible for them to launch a counterattack against Danzhou until this time, take the big road, and they could rush to the city of Danzhou half a month ago.

Ye Hu Cheng thought about it: although the grain and grass transferred from Danzhou were destroyed, but the grain and grass hoarded in Shunzhou were safe and sound, and there was no problem with the grain and grass, and the main purpose of Liu Zhiliang's raid on Danzhou must be to understand the siege of Yanjing.

As soon as he thought of this, Yelu Hucheng smiled coldly and muttered: "If you want to break the siege, you are daydreaming, you are just delaying for some time, there is a fart!" He turned around and said to the generals: "Pass the order and return to Yanjing immediately!" The generals agreed in unison, and Zheng Shilong asked, "King, don't you leave troops here?" Ye Hu Cheng said: "It's all in ruins, and there's still a fart left!" Zheng Shilong hurriedly said: "The king is wise! ”

At that moment, a herald came galloping in from the south. Ran to the vicinity of Yeyu Tiger City, reined in the horse, rolled over and rolled off the saddle, ran to the front of Yehu Hucheng, and said urgently: "King Qiyu, General Tong has been defeated and has retreated to Shunzhou!" Ye Hu Cheng was taken aback, and then said angrily, "What's going on? Tong Dawei has 30,000 soldiers and horses, and the remaining soldiers and horses in Yanjing City are about this number, how could he be defeated by the other party? The herald hurriedly said, "There is more than the Second Legion!" Soon after the king led the main army to leave, the second and third legions of the Yanyun army poured out,......"

Yelu Hucheng's heart moved, and he hurriedly asked, "What did you say?" The Third Legion? The Third Legion arrived in Yanjing? ”

The herald nodded and said, "Yes." ”

After a moment's thought, he looked at the herald and asked, "How do you know it's the Third Legion?" The herald said: "There is the banner of Yanyun's third legion...... Ye Hu Cheng said: "That can't be counted!" How many troops did the enemy force attack? The herald said, "About fifty or sixty thousand!" Ye Hu Cheng was shocked, and frowned: "With so many soldiers and horses, it seems that the Third Legion has indeed arrived in Yanjing!" Then he secretly worried: the previous fight against a second legion had already wasted all the strength, and now with the addition of a third legion, I am afraid that it will be even more difficult than before!

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but regret it again, regretting that I shouldn't have been careless, and I actually thought that the Third Army had actually retreated south without taking precautions! Yeron Tiger City is not a person who likes to regret the past, and the thoughts of regret only flash in his mind. Yelu Hucheng thought about how to take Yanjing, but he felt that if he wanted to capture Yanjing now, it would be more difficult, not to mention the time, but he was afraid that he would pay an extremely heavy price, and with the current strength in hand, I am afraid that he is not completely sure.

Thinking of this, I can't help but want to transfer back the hundreds of thousands of war horses that attacked from all sides and attack Yanjing with all my might, so that it will be the overwhelming momentum of Mount Tai, and there will be no problem in capturing Yanjing! As soon as he thought of this, he made up his mind to order the herald to immediately send orders to all the war cavalry, so that they could leave a small number of troops to guard the occupied states, and the large army would immediately rush to Yanjing. The herald received the order, and gave the order to all the heralds under him, and the heralds immediately received the order, turned over and got on their horses, rode their horses, and the order went. ……

At night, Yang Peng stood in the attic of the palace and looked at the brightly lit city. The night market in the distance is very lively, the vendors have come out to do business, and there are many people who patronize the night market stalls. The people no longer seem to have the nervous mood of trembling and fearing all day long, and everyone seems to be in a good mood, and from time to time there is laughter drifting along the night breeze.

There was a sound of footsteps behind him, Yang Peng retracted his thoughts, and he didn't need to look back to know who was coming, and said with a smile: "Guanyin, you haven't slept yet?" ”

Ya Yu Guanyin pursed his lips and smiled, and asked, "You can smell the fragrance on my body so far away?" Yang Peng turned around, and at this time, Ya Yu Guanyin, who was dressed in a beautiful military costume, walked in front of Yang Peng, Yang Peng naturally held her pair of slender hands, and smiled: "This time it's not because of the fragrance, but because of your footsteps." Ye Yu Guanyin looked at Yang Peng's ears and teased: "It turns out that the eldest brother not only has a sharp nose, but also has a sharp ear!" Yang Peng smiled, hugged Ya Yu Guanyin into his arms, and the two snuggled up to each other and looked at the night market in the distance.

Ya Yu Guanyin asked, "Why hasn't the eldest brother rested yet?" The enemy has been repulsed for the time being, and you can rest well! ”

Yang Peng frowned slightly and said, "This is just a temporary victory, your eldest brother will definitely make a comeback!" Ya Yu Guanyin frowned and nodded, looked into the distance, and said, "You are right, the eldest brother will never stop like this!" Liu Zhiliang's actions just bought us some time! ”

Yang Peng nodded and thought: "If I were him, I would mobilize 300,000 cavalry and attack the city with all my might!" I think he'll do the same nine times out of ten! After this vicious battle, Yanjing City may not be able to be saved! ”

Ye Yu Guanyin left Yang Peng's embrace, looked at Yang Peng, and said, "Since you know that you can't hold it, it's better to give up Yanjing." ”

Yang Peng's heart couldn't help but move, feeling that giving up Yanjing seemed to be an option, with the current strength of the troops staying in Yanjing, in the face of the Khitan army fighting with all its might, it would definitely not be able to hold on, knowing that it would not be able to hold on, it was really a little unwise! Give up Yanjing today, and you can take it back in the future! However, despite thinking so, Yang Peng was never able to make up his mind. This determination is not so easy to make, after all, Yanjing is the place where Yang Peng rises, and it is the foundation of the entire Yanyun!

Seeing that Yang Peng was very hesitant, Ye Yu Guanyin did not disturb him, so he looked at him quietly. In fact, Ye Yu Guanyin put himself in Yang Peng's shoes, and also felt in a dilemma, giving up Yanjing can certainly retain the vitality of life, but once Yanjing is lost, I am afraid that it will have an unimaginable far-reaching impact on the entire Yanyun, and the consequences may be unbearable! But the problem now is that it is difficult to hold Yanjing if you stay behind, and the main forces of the two legions will be buried here.

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
