Ever since Shangguan led his troops into the grassland and attacked the army's food collection team, Yelu Xiannichi was facing an increasingly unfavorable situation. But he never gave up, but did everything he could to try to stabilize the situation and save the crisis.

Even when his heart perished and he himself was certain to die, Yelu Xiannichi did not feel sorry for himself, but with great perseverance and a sense of responsibility, he overcame many psychological obstacles, and presided over the overall military situation with a high-spirited and uplifting spirit.

When the Tiger Guards attacked the camp, even if the defense line was complete, in order to boost the morale of the whole army, he personally went into battle to fight.

For the sake of the war situation in Yanzhou, for the war of the Khitan Kingdom, Yelu Xian Niechi can be said to have put life and death aside and put his life and death on the line, and worked hard to think about it.

It was precisely because of his hard work that even in the face of the two-sided attack of the Tiger Guards and Shangguan Allure, he was confident that the camp would be able to hold out for two days, and when the reinforcements arrived, the situation would be immediately different.

But this kind of effort, the victory that was in sight, turned into a dream because of the unordered withdrawal of the grassland tribal army.

The defeat of the army and the withdrawal of the tribal army were just enough, but the camp of the Chinese army was still as solid as a rock, and even the Tang army had not been able to touch the wall, so they broke away first, making the battle situation that could have been held on collapse in an instant.

A rabble is a rabble.

You can fight with the wind, and you can be as brave as a tiger, and you can fight with great momentum, so that the enemy army can't raise its head, but once the battle situation is unfavorable, you will only mess up, or even flee from the wind.

When he woke up, the summer midday sun made him unable to open his eyes, and he tilted his head before finally seeing the scene in front of him.

He was no longer in the camp, but had arrived at a hill in the mountainous area of Jundu Mountain, thirty or forty miles east of the camp, near the direction of Juyong Pass.

He realized that he had vomited blood and fainted in the camp at that time, and was taken out of the camp by the Grand Monk in time.

But he didn't feel happy, but his heart trembled, like mourning. Struggling to stand up, he pushed away the people who were supporting him left and right, took two steps, and looked at the Huairong camp with wide eyes, breathing as heavily as a bull.

In addition to the western camp, which was almost in ruins, the northern camp and the Chinese army camp were also billowing with smoke, felt tents were toppled, walls collapsed, and all kinds of baggage and debris continued to burn. The entire company camp is twenty or thirty miles away from Dazhai, and now there are no Khitan soldiers who are still fighting.

The Khitan soldiers in the camp were strewn with corpses all over the place, and the blood flowed and drifted, even if it was thirty or forty miles apart, the smell of blood seemed to be so strong that it made people breathless. Groups of Tang cavalry were galloping back and forth, sorting out the order in the camp, and the wounded and remaining Khitan soldiers either fell to the ground and wailed, or large swaths became Tang prisoners.

And more Khitan warriors, who were outside the camp at the moment, were fleeing to the east, and most of them were warriors from the Khitan Eight Divisions. The Tang Army soldiers in the back were in full pursuit, and in order to improve the speed of the pursuit, there was basically no formation at all, as if they were crazy.

Yelu Xiannechi only felt that his heart was like a knife, and he closed his eyes in pain.

Although his eyes were closed, there were two lines of blood and tears flowing from the corners of his eyes.

He heard the shouts of the Don Army.

The Tang army shouted while chasing and killing: "Those who are not the eight Khitan soldiers will not be killed!"

This means that if the grassland tribal army lays down its arms, it can completely save their lives, and it also means that the warriors of the Khitan Eight Divisions have no way to survive at all

Even if it is a surrender, it can't last a long time, the Tang army has decided to kill them!

So far, how can Yelu Xiannichi not be able to react, the Tang army is dividing the grassland.

To be precise, it is to divide the Khitan from other steppe tribes.

Yelu Xiannichi even thought that those steppe tribe armies that retreated without authorization were probably bewitched by the Tang army, so they would retreat at a critical time, causing the battle situation to completely fester.

When Yelu Abaoji ordered him to thoroughly investigate the Quanzhen Guan and the disciples of the Wukong Liberation Sect in the military camp, he did not gain anything, thinking that there were no such people in the camp at all, and even if there were, they would not be able to form a climate, let alone unite.

Thinking about it now, it was too wrong.

Jerushine was full of remorse.

"General, let's go, if you don't leave, the Tang Army Grand Monk will chase after you!" a high-ranking monk of the Khitan Divine Envoy Realm hurriedly persuaded.

Jerushanechi did not answer.

His heart was so dead that he didn't want to speak.

He opened his eyes and looked at the Khitan Babu headquarters soldiers who were trapped in hell, tears and blood kept sliding down the corners of his eyes.

Those young men who shouted and cried and fled in the wasteland were all warriors of the Khitan Eight Tribes, who had once stepped on the grassland, were invincible, conquered one tribe after another, and trampled one chief after another under their feet.

They have gone through battles again and again, becoming stronger and stronger, and more and more have the momentum of looking at all directions, they have enjoyed the supreme glory, so they have a rare sense of mission and responsibility on the grassland, and have a precious national consciousness of sacrificing their lives for the Khitan country, rather than just grazing cattle and sheep.

They may not be the most elite warriors in the world, but absolutely every one of them is precious.

And now, they are trampled like weeds, slaughtered like lambs, how cruel it is, what a pity, how pathetic, how lamentable it is for them.

And all this, in the final analysis, was caused by him, Yelu Xian Nichi, the general of the abdomen, and the most brave and warlike warrior on the grassland.

He is ashamed of Yelu Abaoji, of the Khitan Kingdom, and of the grassland!

He was surrounded by self-blame, guilt and remorse.

"General, let's go, it's too late!" the high-ranking cultivator of the Divine Envoy Realm began to persuade again. He really wanted to forcibly take Yelu Xiannichi away, but the other party's cultivation was not weaker than him, and it was like taking root under his feet, so he didn't move, which made him impatient.

In the middle of the sound, Yelu Xian Nechi faced the Shura Purgatory of this Khitan warrior, and sighed in the sky.

Because of the blood and tears shed, his vision was blurred and full of scarlet.

He said: "Return to the king for me, I, Yelu Xiannichi, am a Khitan sinner, I have failed the trust of the king, and I am not worthy of living in this world, even if I die, I am not worthy of being remembered by the Khitans." I beg the king, cast my corpse into an iron man, and kneel in front of the West Tower City for eternity, for a hundred years, a thousand years, and suffer from the spurning of the Khitans!"

After saying this, in the horrified eyes of everyone, Yelu Xiannechi drew his waist knife, crossed it in front of his throat, and with a sharp force of his arm, he heard a pop, and his head flew high, and blood gushed from his neck.

One of the most praised and prestigious generals of the Khitan Kingdom returned to the grassland in this way.

Li Ye's imperial eye saw this scene from afar.

Regarding Yelu Xian Nichi's death, Li Ye did not have much turmoil in his heart.

Under the general trend, the emperor will die in Jiuquan, let alone a general

？

In the past, because they couldn't resist his soldiers, Li Keyong and Gao Yu, who hated the battlefield, had long since turned into dirt.

So Li Ye didn't have any more feelings.

However, Shangguan fell into the city, and after learning that Yelu Xian Nichi had killed himself, he was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "If the destruction of the heart is because the Tang Dynasty is too strong, then in the end, he was defeated because his companions were too unbearable. ”

This sentence can be regarded as the defeat of Yelu Xiannichi's Huairong and gives the final conclusion.

It is also the most appropriate evaluation.

Not to mention the Khitan monks, with the body of Yelu Xian Nichi, rushed to Yelu Abaoji to resume his life, and said that after the Tang army broke through the Huairong Khitan camp, after half a day of pursuit, the results were outstanding.

In this battle, the Tang army dispatched a total of 120,000 people, including more than 10,000 people from the Huairong border army and Shangguan Chengcheng. And the eight Khitan warriors who were killed, wounded, and captured—all killed after being captured—exceeded 100,000 people.

After the destruction of the hinterland, the grassland tribal army accounted for half of the Huairong Khitan camp, except for a small number of casualties, all of them surrendered to the Tang Dynasty. In all fairness, the strength of the steppe tribal army is not weak, and together it exceeds 100,000 troops.

It's a pity that they are a plate of loose sand, with insufficient success and more than failure.

Zhang Chang'an and Buchen successfully bewitched the grassland tribal army in this battle, and withdrew from the battlefield at a critical moment, which played an immeasurable role in the victory and quick end of the war, so they made outstanding achievements, and the two of them became famous in the first battle.

In the melee, Gesang was only scratched, and his life was saved.

After that, the army did not stop moving, after controlling the battlefield and resting for most of the night, in the early morning of the next day, it was divided into two divisions, and the division went to block the reinforcements of Yelu Abaoji, and the main force was to go straight to Juyong Pass without stopping.

The reinforcements sent by Yelu Abaoji are extremely powerful, and the 100,000 soldiers are all composed of soldiers from the eight Khitan headquarters, which is definitely an existence that can change the situation of the war. However, Yelu Xiannechi has been defeated, and they have lost their support target, and how to act next still needs to report back to Yelu Abaoji.

In order to prevent them from rushing to Juyong Pass, Li Ye sent a group of elite cavalry to monitor and harass them.

According to Li Ye's prior plan, when the Tiger Guards of Huairong City launched a fierce attack on the Yelu Xian Nichi Division, the Tang army on the front line of Juyong Pass would also launch an offensive against the Khitan army outside Juyong Pass, even if they could not achieve victory, they would have to drag them down and fatigue them.

In this way, when the Tang army on the Huairong side rushes over, it will be able to smoothly settle the battle situation.

The Wolf Tooth Army was outside Huairong City, because it was personally resisted by Yelu Xian Nirchi, and experienced a fierce battle, but because the war ended quickly, it did not suffer much damage, and Shangguan Chengcheng asked for his life, Li Ye took them as the vanguard and took the Tiger Guard Army to the Juyongguan battlefield.

On the Juyong Pass, after the Tang army guarding the pass went into battle, they fought with the Khitan soldiers for three days and three nights. Because there were no particularly elite troops in the Khitan battalion, and there was no task at the level of Yelu Xiannichi, the Tang army fought smoothly and successfully broke into the camp.

However, the army of the Khitan Eight Divisions was also very tenacious in battle, and there was no internal turmoil in the battalion, although it lost a lot of camps, it was also inseparable from the Tang army, and for a while, there was also the momentum of holding on until the arrival of reinforcements.

It's a pity that on the fourth day, it was not the Khitan reinforcements that appeared, but the wolf tooth army.
