Chapter 741 Waiting for the ending

The guards in front of him fell down one by one, and Yan Zhan clearly saw the dragon robe that Yelu Nigulu was wearing.

"Kill him, kill him." Yan Zhan suddenly became extremely excited at this moment.

Yelu Niegulu originally wore armor when he went to the battlefield, but this time he insisted on wearing a dragon robe because he wanted to use the identity of the Emperor of Liao to welcome the upcoming end.

A piece of iron sand flew over Yelu Niegulu's head, knocking off the crown on his head, and his long hair fell down, and there was a burnt smell on his hair.

He became the main target of the Song army's attack. Not only the musketeers under the wall, but also the Song army above the city was not willing to be lonely. Gao Yingxi also saw the dragon robe. He was unwilling to let Yan Zhan take over this great contribution, and immediately let the defenders on the city start shooting with crossbows.

Chen Yuan sat on the top of the city and did not stop this phenomenon of robbing merit. Because in the Song army's plan, when the Liao people reached a hundred steps in front of the trench, the musketeers below had to support the musketeers below.

Have you reached a hundred steps now? No one can explain it clearly, as if it was a blurry boundary, and Gao Yingxi obviously couldn't wait.

The cannons in the city, the crossbows at the top of the city, and the muskets that kept firing under the wall formed a three-dimensional attack. Yelu Niegulu's casualties became even greater. Without rushing for more than a dozen steps, the guards around him were completely injured.

On the battlefield, he did not favor him because Yelu Niegulu was the main character or he was extremely brave. He was able to rush to this day because the guards were protecting him with their lives. When the people who protected him around him could no longer form a line of defense, an iron sand finally rushed into the neck of Yelu Niegulu's war horse.

The war horse didn't even make a sound of tragedy, and suddenly fell to the ground. Yelu Niegulu was also thrown heavily from the horse's back.

This was a great blow to the morale of the Liao people. Many soldiers who had followed him turned around and ran away. Yelu Niegulu's personal captain was very dedicated. He hurried over and jumped down from the horse's back, and at the same time helped Yelu Niegulu onto his war horse: "Long live, you can't rush, you can go first."

As soon as he finished speaking, a crossbow arrow penetrated the back of the captain's personal soldiers, and his whole body staggered into Yelu Niegulu's arms.

Yelu Niegulu hugged his body: "Let's go together"

Another arrow shot, and the captain of the personal soldiers spat out a mouthful of blood and pushed Yelu Niegulu away: "I can't leave..."

The few personal soldiers behind him came quickly and helped Yelu Niegulu onto the war horse without saying a word, and pulled him back in a hurry. The first round of charge of the Liao people ended like this. Yelu Niegulu suffered tens of thousands of casualties in this encounter, but he did not even rush over the wall of the Song army.

The crossbows and endless muskets and shells in the sky shocked the Liao people. They had no chance to fight head-on with the Song army in this battle, and firearms could not become the master of war in this era, but the Song army had already opened the door to the firearm era.

Under specific conditions, especially when defending the city, good use of firearms can completely cause effects that cannot be achieved by crossbows.

The Song army suffered minimal casualties, and only more than 30 soldiers were lost in the entire battle. Chen Yuan was very satisfied with the result of the battle, which meant that in the future, where the Song army could use firearms and fortifications to guard some strategic points with a small number of soldiers.

The Song Dynasty will go further in the future, and it is really important to achieve this. The prince-in-law was happy and naturally rewarded the three armies. Now it is still time to arrange a celebration banquet, but it is still very necessary to order the soldiers.

The night slowly enveloped the world, and I couldn't beat it tonight. Yelu Niegulu's expression was very sad. He sat on the ground, and his messy hair was not combed in time.

The bonfire was burning, and the jumping flames rushed to Yelu Niegulu. He seemed to not feel the pain caused by the heat to his skin. His eyes were staring at the stars in the sky, not knowing what he was thinking.

Really, he would rather have been beaten to death by the Song army just now, so that everything would be over. But now he is still alive and must think about what to do tomorrow. For someone who doesn't believe that he still has tomorrow, thinking about tomorrow is a very cruel thing.

"Long live, there was another general under your command who ran away with more than a thousand people." Fujiwara Kindsalou walked to Yelu Nieguru and whispered.

There was no expression on Yelu Niegulu's face, and there was no trace of anger even visible: "Let them go."

Fujiwara Kishisaburo stood beside him: "Long live your life, have you really given up?"

Yelu Niegulu suddenly looked up at him: "What should I do if you say I should do?"

Fujiwara Kishisaburo sat down in front of him: "I think it's unwise to come to the capital this time. You can leave. As long as you lead the 400,000 army all the way north, those Mongolians can't stop you."

Yelu Negulu smiled miserably: "What can you do if you leave? Go to be a Northern Hun or a Turk? Fujiwara Jun, you should know the taste of leaving your hometown and losing your homeland best."

Fujiwara Kindsalou nodded: "But I didn't give up. As long as I'm still alive, I will look for the last glimmer of hope."

Yelu Niegulu shook his head slightly, picked up the horse milk wine beside him and took a sip, and stopped talking. On this point, he was different from Fujiwara Kunsanro. This time he came to attack Zhongjing, and it turned out that the resistance of the Khitan people along the way made Yelu Niegulu very sad. However, he knew that this at least showed that the Song people were good to the Khitans and the revengeful massacre did not appear.

The Song people did not implement the village security system like they did in the previous Japanese people. Yelu Negulu felt a little comfort in his heart. This is also the reason why he did not choose to leave here. Since the Song people can give the Khitans a happy life, why should I take them to escape? Perhaps, I am really an obstacle to the Khitans being able to survive, so I will die.

Fujiwara Kishisaburo obviously understood what Yelu Negolu meant and took a deep breath: "Long live the so-called forgiveness, I will say goodbye."

Yelu Negolu looked at him: "Where can you go?"

Fujiwara's eyes were very firm: "I'm going to Bianjing, I'm going to rescue Emperor Zunren."

Yelu Niegulu showed a contemptuous smile on his lips. He didn't believe that Fujiwara could do this at all. He originally wanted to say something, but when he was about to say something, Yelu Niegulu swallowed it again, and finally nodded: "Okay, I wish you success."

Fujiwara Kissaburo stood up, bowed to Yelu Niegulu, and then turned to leave. The short back was so determined that Yelu Niegulu stared at him until he could no longer see him.

He couldn't understand that from the beginning, Li Yuanhao to now, everyone was not an easy person. Why could Chen Shimei take them all one by one? When Chen Shimei thought of this name, Yelu Nie Gulu suddenly felt that Chen Yuan's face was jumping in the bonfire in front of him, and Yelu Nie Gulu suddenly laughed.

A general ran over from the side: "Long live, no, I found the Song army reinforcements on our flanks."

"Which team came so quickly?"

"It seems to be Bai Yutang's troops."

Yelu Negulu let out a long sigh: "I know, this mouse is coming soon. Don't worry about him."

When Bai Yutang came, Ren Jun was soon. These two troops were closest to Zhongjing, so they came the fastest. Even if they didn't come, they couldn't defeat Zhongjing. Now they were here, Yelu Niegulu was sure that tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, if you are lucky, you can delay for three days. The Song army will definitely complete the siege of itself, and then it's time to end.

In fact, it was meaningless to delay these three days. He took out a token from his arms, which was often used when Yelu Negulu conveyed military orders. He handed the token to the general: "Hold this, I will write another letter. You go to see General Xiao Bin now and ask him to do it according to the instructions in the letter."

The general was stunned for a moment, and then said anxiously: "General, now we go to raid Baiyutang, maybe we will have unexpected results."

Yelu Niegulu shook his head and said, "It's useless. That mouse is very alert. He won't give us a chance. You can leave now. Don't worry about the matter here. Tell Xiao Bin and do what I said in my letter."

"yes"

The Song Dynasty had more and more reinforcements, and soon the counter-encirclement of Yelu Niegulu outside Zhongjing City. On the contrary, the army on Yelu Niegulu was decreasing day by day. Some people ran directly to the Song army, while others fled in all directions. The Song army was very welcome to those troops who surrendered and generally did not pursue the escaped Khitans.

In just two days, the vast army of 100,000 was left after the war. Many of the tents were empty, and the soldiers who were still following Yelu Niegulu eventually cut off food.

In addition to surrounding them, the Song army only launched several small-scale charges when it occasionally rose.

Yelu Niegulu knew that all favorable conditions were on the Song army now, and Chen Shimei was not in a hurry. He could wait slowly, or even wait until he starved to death.

He picked up the water bag in front of him, and Yelu Niegulu raised his neck and poured it into his mouth, but nothing was poured out. He threw the water bag on the ground angrily, and glanced at the surroundings. Most of the soldiers were also depressed.

Not far from them, the soldiers of the Song Dynasty were chatting and laughing easily. Some of the comrades who were standing with them a few days ago were arranged by the Song Dynasty soldiers to keep calling out, encouraging the people around Yelu Niegulu to come over.
