After Zong Ze left, Yang Zhi, Zhu Wu and others observed the map provided by Zong Ze to discuss sending troops, and decided that Yue Fei would take Wang Gui, Wang Gang, Guo Sheng, Xiang Chong and other 1,000 men as the forward, and Yang Zhi would leave Zong Ying, Zhu Wu, and Liang Juewu in the middle with 7,000 men. The battlefield chosen by Yue Fei is in the south ridge of Laoshan Mountain, which is the only way for the Western Xia army to go south, once it wins, it can also quickly occupy Hunyuan County, but it is a county seat, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is also meat, and it is somewhat supplied.

  After Yang Zhi looked at the terrain, he agreed with Yue Fei's opinion and ordered Yue Fei and Guo Sheng to take 500 cavalry to lure the enemy to a valley in the mountains; Chong Bin, Lu Zhishen, Wang Gui, and Han Shizhong were ambushed on the surrounding high places with crossbowmen, and Zhang San, Han Tao, and Kong Yanwei were ambushed behind the mountain trail and the woods respectively. After almost two hours, Yue Fei's five hundred cavalry fled back, and in the end, at least more than 4,000 Western Xia cavalry were chasing after him, Yang Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, Yue Fei acted really, Western Xia really thought that Yue Fei was fighting a small force on the side grass, and the main force did not keep up.

  Yue Fei led the Western Xia army through the ambush area, five hundred cavalry occupied a high place to guard the intersection, all took out bows and arrows to block the enemy, the five hundred divine arm bows and thousands of bows and arrows in ambush on the side of the road fired a volley, the Western Xia cavalry fell down more than a thousand people at once, and the men and horses were separated into two sections. Han Tao's three divisions were killed from a hidden place and intercepted the thousands of cavalry fighting behind the Western Xia army; Yue Fei led five hundred cavalry to charge from a high place and stabbed to death a Western Xia general who rushed forward with one shot, so that the surrounding Western Xia troops did not change their color.

  The Western Xia army was caught off guard and engaged on two sides, one did not know how many Song troops there were, and the other was that the Song army's hidden bows and arrows were holding back the movement of the Western Xia army; and so on the second round of the divine arm bow shot down 400 horses, the Western Xia army could no longer support it, several generals called to break through separately, and finally broke through more than 800 horsemen, and were killed by the Canglang battalion in the first battle of 3,400 horsemen, and captured 1,000 horses.

  Yang Zhi and Yue Fei were not satisfied, but Chong Bin thought it was good, because the casualties of the Song army were few, and the total number of dead was only more than 200 horsemen; Lu Zhishen urged: "Are we changing places, the Western Xia people are wolves, and they will be killed by a large army immediately, and we will not die endlessly." ”

  Lu Zhishen fought with the Western Xia people for more than ten years, knowing that the other party was more entangled than the Liao army, Yang Zhi immediately ordered to clean up the battlefield, retreat fifteen miles, and retreat to the open area of Laoshan and Laochuan Shui, Gongsun Sheng was already there, and he came forward to see Yang Zhi and Lu Zhishen and said: " Wei Dingguo had already planted gunpowder on the flat ground, and Liang Juewu's catapult had also been arranged, just waiting for the cannon to sound as a trumpet, and they would start together; Shan Tinggui had placed poisonous smoke in the forest at the downwind outlet, and rockets were fired into it and ignited it; Zhang Heng was filling his pocket with sand and soil at the mouth of the mountain stream upstream of the Laochuan River and was building a dam to block the water. Zong Ying and Lei Heng were responsible for smashing stones on the mountain road on the other side of the river in Laochuan, and Zhu Wu said that it was best to have a team of men and horses to guard the exit of the mountain road over there. ”

  Yue Fei asked, "What if the Western Xia army camps outside the mountain road?"

  Genius is immeasurable, this is something that Yang Zhi did not expect, but Yue Fei almost thought of the only flaw when he saw Zhu Wu's arrangement; Gongsun Sheng said appreciatively: "Shan Tinggui has already checked, the two water sources nearby have been poisoned, and the Western Xia army will find that this area is far away from the water of Laochuan, and there is no water source for camping, otherwise withdraw the army and go back, or defeat us and occupy the camp." ”

  Yang Zhi was relieved at this time, and followed Gongsun Sheng inside, a large camp had been set up, surrounded by mountains and rivers, the sergeants were digging a trench, there was a flat ground on the side, it didn't look abnormal, it should be the place where the gunpowder was buried; Wei Dingguo took three hundred sergeants in a line, commanded the army to make a detour, and then eliminated the traces of the detour of the military horses.

  After Yang Zhi and Zhu Wu discussed, he ordered Han Shizhong to lead the men and horses of the headquarters to guard the exit of the mountain road, Zhang San and others led the cavalry to ambush separately, according to Zhu Wu's ambush behind the mountain, he and Lu Zhishen, Wei Dingguo and others entered the village, and at the gate of the village, Chen Guang was arranged, 1,000 pikemen, 800 crossbowmen and 500 crossbowmen with divine arms, and 500 crossbowmen and 300 javelinmen were arranged on the side.

  Li Liangfu got the report of the defeated army, and immediately came with more than 10,000 Western Xia troops to kill Benlai Mountain, but Li Liangfu was very cautious and constantly sent scouts to inquire about the news, until he learned that the ambush on the mountain road had been withdrawn, and the Song army was encamped in the open area, so Li Liangfu marched with peace of mind. When he arrived here, after learning of the situation in the Song army's camp, Li Liangfu did make preparations for resting overnight and fighting again tomorrow, but when he learned that the two nearby water sources were poisonous, Li Liangfu immediately ordered the march.

  Li Liangfu has been on the battlefield for a long time, and knows that since the other party has directly poisoned him, he either hopes to withdraw from the army, or he wants to fight with himself with his own work; now there is still a period of time before dusk, Li Liangfu's plan is to attack and have a look, so before marching, Li Liangfu arranged three teams of 1,000 cavalry, which were guarded at various intersections to prevent the Song army from being ambushed, and he led 8,000 elite cavalry directly to Yangzhi Dazhai.

  Li Liangfu gave an order, the Western Xia army blew the horn, and the 8,000 cavalry roared like a long tide to the Song army camp; the war horses galloped, the smoke and dust swept up, the earth trembled in the roar of thunder, the gravel on the mountain road splashed, making an incongruous harsh sound, Li Liangfu's banner was a blue flying banner, which was particularly conspicuous among the rolling men and horses, and the speed of advance became faster and faster, and as the troops to the open field unfolded, Li Liangfu and the Western Xia army were relieved.

  Yang Zhi's eyes were indifferent, looking at the handsome banner of the Western Xia Army from afar, like a fierce beast smelling blood, and the murderous aura suddenly became cold; Chen Guang calculated the distance of the Western Xia Army, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he shouted: "Divine Arm Bow, release." ”

  The density of the Western Xia army was too great, and the iron arrows of the divine arm bow were almost inmissible, and some even penetrated two or three Western Xia cavalry with one arrow; Li Liangfu did not dare to be careless, the wisdom and courage shown by the Song army in front of him could not be underestimated, and the Song army had been attacking for many years, knowing that the opponent was not lacking in brave and good fighters, he gave a loud order: "The flanks are spread out, and the siege is carried out on both sides." ”

  The horn of the Western Xia army sounded again, the flag fluttered, the front army continued to push forward, and the army behind rushed towards the flank; the Song army on the flank really did not have a divine arm bow, about three or four thousand horsemen quickly launched a formation charge on the flank, although the opponent's bow and arrow caused trouble, but the Western Xia army had quickly identified the trap and the road, and attacked the gate one after another, the javelinmen on the flank blocked the first round of attack of the Western Xia army, and the Western Xia army behind continued to shoot arrows to suppress the Song army, and on the other hand, they continued to push the dead colleagues and war horses in front of them into the trap pits on both sides and clear the road。

  In the fierce battle, the woods and grass piles at the upwind mouth were successively ignited by the rockets fired by the Song army, and a large number of fire thistles were shot out of the Song camp at the same time, and the Western Xia army in the middle of the smoke quickly attacked the gate of the Song camp, but the advancing soldiers planted from their horses one after another, and the smoke was poisonous; the side was far away from the smoke, and more Western Xia troops turned to attack on the flank, Li Liangfu was a little suspicious, was the Song army because the wind direction was on the flank and did not dare to set fire to thistles?
