Chapter 150: Watching the Enemy

"Yelu Mada is indeed worthy of a generation of famous generals!" Zhao Kuangyin pointed to the camp of the Khitan army in the distance, "Although it does not have the strict defense system of the Central Plains camp, the camp is quite conducive to the rapid attack of the cavalry. Compared with the camps in the Central Plains www.biquge.info the camps of the Khitan people are more focused on aggression. ”

Zhao Kuangyin carefully explained to Li Fengyun the usefulness of the various settings of the Khitan camp and the Khitan people's response to various situations.

They hid on a hill two miles away from Majiakou, where there was a large dense forest, which could be used to hide, and it was only three or four miles away from the Khitan camp.

With the familiarity of Zhao Kuangyin and others with the terrain, more than 3,000 of them sneaked here day and night, and they were not discovered by the Khitans, which cannot be said to be a miracle.

And the distance between the Khitan army camp and Majiakou is only more than three miles. If something happens to Majiakou, the Khitan army can also quickly gather cavalry to rescue.

Li Fengyun frowned and said, "Wouldn't there be no chance to sneak attack their camp?"

Bai Futong smiled dumbly and said, "Brother Fengyun, do you really plan to use these 3,000 men and horses to sneak attack the Khitan camp with 10,000 people?" Bai Futong was originally a general in the army, and it was easy to command operations.

"Isn't it?" Li Fengyun said.

Bai Futong shook his head and said: "The combat power of the Khitan cavalry is not weak, in terms of individual combat strength alone, a Khitan cavalry can completely resist two elite cavalry in my Central Plains, this is no way, who told them to grow up on horseback since childhood?"

Moreover, the Khitan cavalry innately knows how to cooperate with each other, and the more people there are, the greater the disadvantage of our Central Plains cavalry. If we don't count those masters, fighting head-on, our 3,000 people can only compete with more than 1,000 Khitan iron cavalry at most. went to attack the camp of the Khitans, but I was afraid that before I could rush in, I would be wiped out. ”

Li Fengyun was stunned, he had seen the battle of the Khitan Iron Cavalry four times.

The first time was in that nameless village, he, Mo Qingyan, and Du Ruyue took twenty or thirty soldiers to sneak attack the more than 40 escorted the more than 800 villagers Khitan rangers, who knew that the whole army was almost wiped out, but fortunately, he had an idea, and ordered someone to untie the ropes that bound the 800 villagers first, and with the help of more than 800 people, he killed the leader of the Khitan rangers, so that he defeated the Khitan iron horsemen.

That battle, Li Fengyun still remembers it vividly. The Khitan iron cavalry never fights alone, in groups of three or five, with the impact of the horses, it can always form a local advantage, even if it is an ordinary third-rate master, it is difficult to say that it can save his life with such exquisite cooperation. In that battle, if it weren't for Mo Qingyan and Du Ruyue's desperate protection, he Li Fengyun might have died under the knife of the Khitan Iron Horse.

This was still a sneak attack when the Khitan iron horse's horse speed had no chance to unfold, and finally let the horsemen escape.

The second time was a battle with Xiao Yuanqi's more than 1,000 iron horsemen.

That battle, which was mainly commanded by Dian Kui, was almost entirely on foot. In foot combat, the Khitan iron cavalry was not good at fighting, and there were many martial arts masters on their side, so they barely repelled Xiao Yuanqi's two attacks, but they also paid a lot of casualties.

If it weren't for Mo Qingyan who found reinforcements in time, Li Fengyun made two surprise moves, first disrupting Xiao Yuanqi's deployment, and then using Xiao Yuanqi's huge spare horse herd to crush Xiao Yuanqi's cavalry who were fighting in formation, it can be said that even if the reinforcements of the seventeenth and nineteenth are added, it is only a dish on Xiao Yuanqi's plate.

The third time was outside Xinzhou.

That time, Li Fengyun fought with the Khitan iron cavalry after defeating the Khitan servant army. At that time, the more than 4,000 Khitan iron cavalry was fighting with Liu Guangyuan's 3,000 elite cavalry, Li Fengyun attacked the Khitan iron cavalry from the back, the Khitan iron cavalry's military spirit was already a little fluctuating, and there were Liu Guangyuan's one or two hundred bed crossbows to help fight, even so, Li Fengyun did not take much advantage, and the Khitan iron cavalry retreated calmly.

Next was Li Fengyun's sneak attack on Yelu Anduan's grain and grass camp, and Li Fengyun fought relatively well in that battle, because there were not only nameless first-class masters who went with him, but everyone else was a second-rate master. Moreover, they are wearing the costumes of the Khitans, so that the Khitans do not know who the enemy is, and they have no chance to fight on horses and horses, so that they can achieve such brilliant results.

Second-rate masters, how much can the whole world make up?

The last time was under the city of Zhenzhou, two thousand Khitan iron horsemen fought against Du Chongwei's two thousand fine horsemen.

This time, Li Fengyun did not participate in the battle at all, and kept watching the battle on the hill outside the city. Because of this, Li Fengyun has a clear understanding of the combat power of the Khitan Iron Cavalry.

The strength of the two in the battle was equal, but the Khitan iron cavalry killed Du Chongwei's cavalry almost collapsed, if it wasn't for Guo Wei first rushed to the battlefield with the cavalry and repelled the Khitan iron cavalry, I am afraid that it is difficult to say who will win and who will lose in this battle.

"What should I do?" Li Fengyun said, "You can't just watch here, look at this appearance, the Khitan Tatars have crossed the river in the past two days, a few days earlier than we expected." How can I entangle them?"

Bai Futong pondered for a moment and said, "With our people alone, there are only a few ways to hinder the Khitans.

The first is the attack on the camp. The Khitan camp is very well defended, and in a short period of time, we may not find a chance.

Second, burn the ship. At the wharf, the Khitans collected no less than 1,000 boats, not to mention all of them burned, as long as 30 percent were burned, the enemy's soldiers and horses crossing the river at one time would be less than 3 or 40 percent, and the soldiers and horses opposite Li Shouzhen might be able to break the enemy. forced the Khitans not to cross the river easily.

It's a pity that there are no less than 3,000 Khitans stationed near the Majiakou wharf, and I'm afraid that with our people, we won't have the opportunity to set fire to the ship.

The third is to cut off their food routes. Yelu Mada probably would not rush to the south bank of the Yellow River before clearing the danger of the grain route.

It's just that the enemy's camp is only a few dozen miles away from Bozhou City, and the enemy's grain and grass are mainly concentrated in Bozhou, and there are no less than 1,000 Khitans who protect and transport grain and grass each time.

There are no dangerous places around Bozhou for ambush, and it is difficult, difficult, difficult to cut off its grain routes!"

Everyone was sad, and they couldn't think of any good ideas for a while.

"Look! something seems to have happened over there in Majiakou!" Mo said lightly. Mo Qingyan's injuries have been fully healed, after the siege of Zhenzhou was lifted, he went south with Li Fengyun, one wanted to help Li Fengyun, and the other came back to Kaifeng Dali Temple.

When everyone heard this, they all looked up in the direction of Majiakou, only to see a slip of dust and go straight to Majiakou.

"What kind of person? It seems that they want to attack the docks! There are not many people, only fifty or sixty horsemen!" Zhao Kuangyin frowned.
