An error occurred while processing s private files

Abaddon saw the Liao army's commander flag.

"Kill, kill..." The bloody Shiwei man was like a tiger seeing his prey, and suddenly burst out with amazing power, "Go around, kill, kill him."

The entourage of the Shiwei people opened their eyes wide open, and they roared like thunder, and they sacrificed their lives to move forward.

Xiao Ta retreated in panic.

The sudden reversal of the battle made him lose his calmness and calmness. He couldn't believe that the collapsed rebels and fled rebels could still pluck up the courage to fight back. This retaliation not only caught him off guard, but also caused his army to fall into a catastrophe. Things on the battlefield changed so quickly. The Liao army was still cheering for victory a moment ago, and was still raising Yu Yong to chase the precious bandit. In the blink of an eye, it fell into the abyss again and was defeated by a sudden sharp blow.

The Liao army collapsed.

Its central army had 20,000 people. During the previous battle, the left earth formation did not move, but the right sky formation was surrounded and killed by the rebels, causing heavy losses.

When the rebel army retreated, Tabuya and his soldiers thought the rebels had collapsed, and then retreated to pursue. The Liao army in the sky formation was exhausted. It rushed to the front and was the first to be killed by the assault horse army that was counterattacked by the rebel army, and they were sobbing and fled. Thousands of people fled, covering the sky and overwhelmed, and immediately rushed into pieces. The Liao army behind the ground formation was scattered, and "bombed" the bombing camp, and fled in all directions.\

More than 3,000 rebels fought hard, killing each other, and all those who blocked the enemy were killed. Li Hu raised his head suddenly, and the Liaozhong army's flag was in front of him, with red lanterns dazzling, and several piles of burning fires surrounded the surroundings, illuminating the hills as bright as day.

Li Hu was shocked and the terrifying cannon suddenly flew through his mind.

"Retreat, retreat..." Li Hu suddenly tightened the reins of the horse. Tieli neighed in pain. He stood upright, and his huge body turned several times, landing on the ground with a bang. "Retreat, retreat..." Li Hu shouted at the top of his lungs and shouted desperately.

The personal bodyguard Chen Bao was right beside him. When he heard Li Hu's order, he immediately took off his horn and blew wildly to the sky, "Woooo..." More entourages stopped their war horses and blew the horn of retreat.

The Iron Guard Camp suddenly stopped, and the soldiers turned their horses and left after they beat them.

The second general of the Hulie Cavalry did not reduce his speed. He quickly turned on the wings of the Iron Guard Camp, drew a sharp arc, and roared away.

Abaddon is still killing and moves forward.

"Retreat, retreat..." his entourage shouted in unison.\"Retreat quickly..."

Abaddon turned a deaf ear and continued to attack and kill, with only prey in his eyes. [Read the text version, please go] Only Xiao Ta is not there.

The entourages had no choice but to follow their wings and slashed and killed them desperately.

The sound of the retreating horns became increasingly dense, and the large group of people had completed their turn and began to accelerate.

The entourages were anxious and shouted and shouted.

Abaddon finally stopped. Apart more than thirty steps, Xiao Ta was also galloping on his horse.

Suddenly, Abaddon turned around and raised his spear in front of him, aiming at Tabuya, "Kill..." With a loud shout, Abaddon used all his strength to throw out the spear. The spear drew up in the air, bringing out a blood bead, and roared sharply and flew straight into the night sky.

Tabu also heard the sound of fighting suddenly weakened. He turned around and looked back.

A spear fell from the sky as fast as lightning, and without waiting for him to react. The sharp gun blade had already nailed into his back armor and penetrated into his body. A heart-wrenching pain suddenly came. Tabu also opened his mouth and cried bitterly, and then he was shot down by the spear's huge inertia.

"Deputy Commander..." The guards exclaimed in horror, rolled down one after another, swarmed up and protected them.

The distance was far, and this shot failed to penetrate the Liao army's commander and failed.

"Retreat..." Abaddon did not dare to stop anymore, turned his horse's head, leaned over and grabbed a spear from the ground, and galloped away.

The battlefield of the West River Valley.

The battle between the two sides gradually became fierce. At this time, the rebel army withdrew, and Gao Baolong commanded the two generals of the First Army to join the battlefield.

The battlefield situation suddenly changed.

The Liaogong Tent Army's rear formation could not resist, and the battle formation immediately broke down.

Xiao Degong did not dare to attack again, so he immediately ordered to retreat.

The rebel army had no intention of siege and killed them, and allowed the Liaogong Treasure Army to quickly withdraw from the Xihe Valley. At this moment, the rebel army's five-way coalition forces and the resentful army's rock camp avoided the Xihe Valley, directly crossed the hills and hurriedly retreated across the glacier.

On the way to retreat, Xiao Degong's palace tent army and Li Hu's horse army collided head-on.

Li Hu didn't dare to fight again, so he hurriedly avoided. Xiao Degong was even more afraid. There were blocking in front and pursuing soldiers behind, so how could he dare to fight again? Turning his horse's head and running straight towards Zidutai.

The rebels retreated across the board.

Mao's army, Wu Xiong, led the Third Army, the General's Mansion, and the baggage people to retreat to Changyili first.

Li Hu led Gao Baolong's first army and Mu Taoli's second army defended the Xihe Valley, cutting off the rear cover.

Gao Yuan's Fourth Army ended the battle, escorted Yan Yun's prisoners and then evacuated.

Luo Qinghan, Dong Xiaochou, and Guo Yaoshi gathered the fugitives of the resentful army while leading the army to evacuate.

Xiao Ta was also carried under the Liao army's flag.

His face was extremely pale, and the blood dyed his robe red, while the spear was still stuck on his back and could not be pulled out because he lost too much blood and was in a semi-coma.

Xiao Degong, Xiao Monknu, Yelu Yuji, Yelu Chentunu, Yelu Aba, Yelu Taishinu and a group of generals came to hear the news and surrounded his land, helpless.

Suddenly, Tabu opened his eyes, and his eyes passed by the crowd, and finally stopped at Yelu Yujian.

Yu Ji took a step forward, squatted beside him, and gently held his hand, "Deputy coach..."

Tabu's lips trembled slightly, and he slowly spit out two words, "Siege the city..."

I saw the circles of my eyes red and felt very sad and angry, "Okay, deputy coach, I will attack the city immediately, immediately..."

Tabu also smiled and slowly pressed himself into his eyes and died in the battlefield.

"Deputy Commander..." Yu Jian cried in a low voice, and tears poured out. Next, he formed the battle formation and prepared to continue to attack the city.

In the dark night, a horse rushed over.

King Yelu Chun of Yan wrote a letter to Deputy Marshal Xiao Ta and quit the battlefield.

If our opponents are two, the Jin army and the rebels join forces to fight together, then it can be inferred that the Jin army has already arrived in Tongchang City, and we have lost the initiative in this battle. In an urgent situation, it is difficult to recover Chengzhou. If we pay a heavy price under Tongchang City, it is better to withdraw our troops first, preserve our strength, and station troops on the Daling River front line, guard Chuanzhou, Qianzhou and Yizhou to ensure the safety of prefectures and counties south of Daling River.

I saw the letter in my hand and sighed to the sky.

He was unwilling to withdraw his troops like this. Now the rebels have fled south and the purpose of forcing the rebels to escape has been achieved. The only opponent is the Jin army, and it has suffered heavy damage. Neither the troops, morale nor physical strength, they cannot resist the Liao army. In addition to the entire Yanyun army, the cavalry and infantry of the front, middle and rear armies were within an acceptable range, and they had just won the battlefield and their morale was high. When siege, as long as they took turns to fight and took turns to rest, they could maintain their physical strength. With such a large army to attack Tongchang City, the chances of victory are very high.

Yu Ji solicited the opinions of several generals, and then jointly wrote a letter to Yelu Chun, asking to attack the city overnight.

The 13th day of breaking through.

It's midnight.

Zidutai.

After all, Yelu Chun was not the commander of the army. He was the King of Qin and Jin in the Great Liao Dynasty. He first considered the land as the Daliao Palace Treasure. The result of today's battle directly affected his status and power in the palace Treasure, so he would never dare to continue to fight at the risk of defeat.

The time for the withdrawal order was just right. The army defeated the Jin army and the rebels and prepared to attack the city again. Yelu Chun did not want to interfere with the command of the front line commander at the most intense moment of the war, which may lead to the defeat of the entire army. When the army is sure to win, he wrote to stop the attack, because the Liao army had already suffered heavy losses. If the losses continued in the siege battle, then even if Chengzhou was captured in the end, he might not be able to defend it. Even if he defended it, the losses in force in the short term will not be able to make up for it. This is not conducive to the defense of Zhongjing Road, but also to the encirclement and suppression of the rebels.

After weighing the pros and cons, Yelu Chun decided to withdraw his troops, which was obviously correct. For him, the most important thing was to control the army, which was his strong backing for returning to the palace to turn the hands of the clouds and turn the hands of the rain. If the army is seriously damaged, especially if he can control the army, the consequences will be self-evident.

The news that Deputy Marshal Xiao Tabu was also killed further strengthened Yelu Chun's idea of ​​withdrawing his troops.

The battle has been like this. Although there was no contribution to the emperor and the palace tent, there was no guilt. Because the facts proved that the loss of the defense line of Thorns Mountain and the annihilation of 40,000 Xiao Gan's army was all due to the joint attack of the Jurchens and the rebels. The Jurchens had tens of thousands of elite troops, and the rebels had more than 100,000 troops. With Xiao Gan's power, of course, they could not defend Thorns Mountain.

What Yelu Chun needed was a reason to excuse Xiao Gan and defend the failure of the Eastern Expedition. In the Battle of Chengzhou, the death of Deputy Marshal Xiao Tabuya formed a sufficient reason, that is, the Jurchens and the rebel Li Hu joined forces.

This is enough to achieve the goal of the Battle of Chengzhou.

Although regaining Chengzhou is better, it can ensure the safety of the southeastern road prefectures and counties, and it is also beneficial to encirclement and suppression of the rebel army, it was a last resort when there was no better reason to escape Xiao Gan's crime and defend the failure of the Eastern Expedition. Now that there is a reason, there is no need to fight this battle again. On the contrary, in order to firmly control the army and to transfer more troops to the battlefield of Zhongjing Road, Yelu Chun needed to create a precarious situation in Zhongjing Road, and retreating to Xingzhong Prefecture can lead to the emergence of this situation.
