Yao Zhou came out in response and said loudly: "The end will be here!"

Chen Ao turned his head and saw that Yao Zhou, with only 2,500 cavalry, was hiding on the back of the mountain to avoid the enemy's edge. Chen Ao was about to scold him for being timid, but after thinking about it, although Yao Zhou was not very old, he had far more experience than himself, and it was impossible for him to be timid. He only has such a small number of cavalry under his command, and if he wants to fight against seven or eight thousand Khitan cavalry, it is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg. Moreover, for many years, in order to deal with the Liao army, the Song army studied tactics to fight with infantry battle formations. As for the cavalry, because it is difficult to form a scale, it has always been a countermeasure.

Therefore, Yao Zhou led people to avoid the enemy's edge, but he did nothing wrong. Thinking of this, Chen Ao calmed down and said to Yao Zhou: "General Yao, you see that the enemy is now dividing troops to deal with our army's formation. If our cavalry attacks now and cooperates with the foot soldiers, will we be able to fight the enemy?"

He said his thoughts in a consultative tone, after all, his shortcomings were exposed today, and the unruly generals under his command may not obey him. If you still regard yourself as a coach at this time, it will be even more disgusting. Chen Ao has long understood the truth of being able to bend and stretch, and in order to survive, he even did things like sycophants and wagging his tail and begging for mercy, not to mention being polite to his subordinates now?

Yao Zhou was really a little flattered, and hurriedly said: "What the general said is very true. Now there are only one or two thousand people in each team of the Liao army, and if we concentrate a little, we will have an advantage in numbers. Coupled with the cooperation of the infantry army, the last general feels hopeful!"

After he finished speaking, he turned his horse and beckoned his men. Zhao Ling suddenly said: "General Yao, after all, there are seven or eight thousand people in the Liao army, we can take advantage of a little advantage, but we must not fall in love with war!"

At this critical juncture, Zhao Ling didn't have time to pass the word through Chen Ao and give suggestions directly. Although the people around heard her crisp voice, they didn't have time to pay attention. Yao Zhou nodded, and the horse galloped out. After a short time, he rushed out with more than 2,000 cavalry. When these new forces saw their comrades being slaughtered, they had been holding back their strength for a long time, and at this time they finally found an outlet, and it was like a flash flood.

Yao Zhou rushed to the front, staring at the nearest circular formation, rushing straight over, blocking the waist to cut off the encirclement of the Khitan cavalry. The Khitans were originally circling around the Song army's circular formation, and were disrupted by the people who rushed in. The men and horses in front were swept to the ground, and those behind did not have time to stop and stumbled. Fortunately, the Liao army had superb riding skills, and only one hundred and ten people were injured before stabilizing the formation.

Yao Zhou's cavalry set up a pincer formation, like a pair of pincers inserted into this group of Liao troops. The two ends were packed, and the Khitan cavalry at the front was surrounded at once. The Liao army behind hurriedly rushed to the rescue. And the foot soldiers of the Song army also reacted, and the commander was Chu Dazhuang, who was good friends with Yao Zhou.

Chu Daqiang shouted and shouted: "Our cavalry is here, let's fuck it together!"

The circle formation changed at once, and the well-trained Song army outflanked the rear of the Khitan cavalry according to the procedure of thousands of trainings. The cavalry was supposed to go to the rescue of their comrades, but they found that their rear road had been intercepted. After such a stir, thousands of people were crowded in this small area, and the speed advantage of the cavalry had long since disappeared. If the battle continues, the cavalry will not be the opponent of the foot soldiers, and can only become the meat under the swords and guns of the foot soldiers.

The leading Liao army hurriedly sounded the horn, and at the same time wanted to rush out with people. Since the foot soldiers were not as fast as the horses, the encirclement had not yet been completed, so they rushed out with ease. However, none of the hundreds of cavalry surrounded by Yao Zhou could escape. And the last one was also chased by Chu Dazhuang's foot soldiers to cover up and kill a piece, until the cavalry speed up, the foot soldiers could not catch up, and the slaughter stopped.

Chu Dazhuang slammed the long axe in his hand to the ground and said loudly: "Happy! Yao Zhou! Well done!"

Where did Yao Zhou have time to talk to him, he didn't look back, left the battlefield for Chu Dazhuang to clean up, beckoned his own manpower, quickly organized the formation, and ran to the next place. Fortunately, it was not far away, and the formation was neat, so it rushed into the formation of the second Liao army again. The same scenario happened all over again. It's just that the Liao army is not a fool, he was caught off guard at the beginning and was caught off guard, and he also reacted at this time.

Hearing the horn blowing, the Liao army, which was entangled with the Song army, immediately closed the team, galloped back a hundred and ten steps, and gathered together. Then he turned his horse and set up his position, as if he wanted to charge again. Yao Zhou's little bit of people is not worth mentioning in their eyes.

Yao Zhou also knew this, so he did not blindly pursue, and he was able to kill and repel two teams of nearly 2,000 cavalry of the Liao army, which was already a great result. He gathered his ranks and flanked again, both to preserve himself and to participate in the battle at any time.

And the infantry army also took advantage of this rare gap to quickly get closer and form a large formation of more than 10,000 people. Everything returned to the usual tactics, and in the previous chaotic battle, each side left hundreds of corpses on each side. And next, it's the real head-to-head battle!

Chen Ao pinched a handful of cold sweat in his palms and stared at the battlefield anxiously. What is going to happen next seems to be out of his control. Each army has a good commander who will make the most correct judgment and command. He, the manager, can't help at all.

The horn of the Liao army sounded again, as if to foreshadow their imminent assault. At this moment, there was a sudden roar in the distance, which seemed to be the movement of the marching army. Chen Ao was taken aback, and secretly thought, if there is reinforcement from the Liao army at this time, he is afraid that the whole army will be wiped out here!

Everyone pinched a cold sweat, and Chen Ao looked at the Liao army. I saw a knight suddenly galloping from a distance and saying something to the Liao general. When the man heard this, he waved his hand. The Liao army suddenly turned and rushed into the distance.

Chen Ao was stunned, not knowing what was going on. Then a group of cavalry appeared on the hillside in the distance, about 1,000 people. If you look carefully at the banner in the team, it is actually the banner of the Song Army. Chen Ao was overjoyed, it turned out that it was his own people who rushed to reinforce him!

Seeing that the Liao army was speeding up and fleeing into the distance, Chen Ao couldn't help but shout: "It is advisable to chase after the poor man with the remaining bravery, and not to become a famous overlord! Why don't you chase it? Yao Zhou, hurry up and beat the water dog!"

Zhao Ling hurriedly said: "Forget it, don't chase it!"

Chen Ao turned around and asked, Zhao Ling sighed: "Most of the horses of the cavalry of the Song army are Tubo horses and Yunnan horses, and they have enough endurance, but they are not as fast as the grassland horses. Now the Liao army has not been defeated, and if it catches up, I am afraid that it will suffer a loss. ”

Chen Ao was taken aback, and he also knew that his hasty decision might cost thousands of lives. He hurriedly shouted again: "I'm talking nonsense, don't chase you!"

Yao Zhou is obviously very experienced, so he didn't plan to chase it from the beginning. Chen Ao sighed and put his mind at ease. Although there was an encounter today, fortunately, the casualties were not heavy.

Chen Ao looked at Song Jun who was coming from afar, and said happily: "Let's go! Let's go and see who is coming!"
