Chapter 1,734 The Battle

After gathering his mood, Li Kui ordered his troops to sort out the carriages that could still be used and put them on the backs of the horses of the Ugu enemy troops. He selected five thousand strong men and organized them into a chariot army, carrying all the remaining iron crossbows.

, the weapon, together with the thirteen light cavalry, began to pursue.

Yelu Hongji was too arrogant, and his sudden retreat was too obvious in purpose.

The Liao people thought they were scared, but little did they know that after this battle, these slaves under his hands had turned into wolves again!

This battle is not over yet!

…

The army marching in the snowy wilderness cannot be hidden from anyone. Yelu Hongji's team was extremely fast, and Li Kui's speed was not slow either.

Yelu Hongji lost less than 20,000 men in this battle. Because he had to rush to attack Jeddah, he left the infantry commander Yeluna behind.

At the end of Ding Dynasty, Li Kui's cavalry troops caught up with Yeluna Ye by the river. The advance cavalry troops were 13 teams, and they took turns to hit Yeluna Ye's infantry formation.

This was the tactics of the Liao people, but Li Kui took cavalry archery to the extreme and asked the Thirteenth Team not to attack by force, but to shoot randomly with bows and arrows and crossbows.

Yelunaye's infantry also had chariots, Xi chariots, but Xi chariots were clumsy and easily destroyed. Half of them were lost along the way, and now their number was too small to protect the entire army.

The Tatars' tactics were extremely flexible, especially the crane-shank crossbows that were not affected by the weather. The cavalry and armies were crisscrossing each other. Yelunaye's infantry could only fight but could not fight back. Soon the morale of the army collapsed and the army formation began to collapse.

Yeluna also retreated, but after passing Qiuba Mountain, the five hundred miles of grassland no longer had favorable terrain, and was continuously divided and slaughtered by Li Kui's clever command.

Three days later, Li Kui called the carriages and asked the thirteen troops to hand over all the crane-shank crossbows to the chariot soldiers. Each carriage carried fifteen crossbowmen and spearmen, and used 600 carriages to charge into the enemy formation.

The 60,000 light cavalry on both wings switched to short-range soldiers. Li Kui finally agreed to fight the Tatar men, who had been unable to restrain themselves for a long time, to engage in close combat!

At the moment when the violent chariot formation formed a flying geese formation and rushed towards Yelunaye's army, Yelunaye finally lost his nerve. The battle was on foot versus horse, and could not continue at all. He turned his horse's head and abandoned his troops.

Escaped first.

The army completely collapsed. First, it was smashed to pieces by the carriage, and then it was caught up by the brave Tatars, surrounded, and slaughtered with hammers, battle axes, and riding knives.

The war on the grassland was cruel. The Thirteen Ugu Enemies hated the Liao people and had no intention of keeping prisoners.

Yelu Hongji's 20,000 rear troops lay there for a hundred miles from the bend of the river to Kaochuluo. After the battle, except for Yelu Na, they were all missing, and the rest were all killed in battle.

Of the 20,000 people, more than 10,000 were armored. In addition, there were many banners, clothes and coats, golden drums, orders, and even grain and fodder.

Li Kui made full use of them, allocated all the armor to thirteen cavalry armies, and ordered the ministers and leaders to select outstanding warriors to form the core force of each team, turning the army in his hand into 5,000 cavalry.

Army, a motorized regular army with a perfect combination of 10,000 armored cavalry and 40,000 light cavalry.

It took three days to reorganize the troops, but the speed was faster after that. Five days later, Jeddah was found a hundred miles northeast of Jingbian City and was engaged in a bloody battle with Yelu Hongji.

This battle was very interesting. First, all the 30,000 defenders of Jingbian City came out. After traveling a hundred miles, they were surrounded by 60,000 troops from Jeddah.

The two sides fought for three days, each suffering losses. Just when Jeddah was preparing to send heavy cavalry for a decisive victory, Yelu Hongji's 70,000-strong army came from the southwest and, together with the Jingbian garrison, attacked Jeddah.

Jeddah was beaten to death by Li Kui, and with three thousand heavy cavalry in his hands, he was also very brave. In the end, Yelu Hongji dispatched his own palace guard Tielin's heavy cavalry to withstand Jeddah's offensive.

However, the difference in the strength of the troops was huge. Yelu Hongji still had 90,000 men, while Jida's men fought hard, but less than 60,000 men were left.

The balance of victory began to tip towards the Liao army. A few days later, Yelu Hongji ordered all his troops to be dispatched, preparing to completely eliminate the divinationists.

However, at this moment, Li Kui's fifty-five thousand chariots and cavalry arrived!

This is a powerful new force. Yelu Hongji, Jingbian Army, and Jeddah have been fighting for more than ten days. Both sides are exhausted. Li Kui's sudden addition completely changed the situation of the battle.

The chariot troops rushed straight to Yelu Hongji's camp. The sergeants on the vehicle used iron crossbows, newly made javelins, and long spears protruding from the vehicle to slaughter the Liao army crazily.

Behind each vehicle, there is a group of fierce and violent Tatar armored cavalry who are good at picking up bargains. They wield war hammers and flails. Even if they encounter Liao soldiers, they will not be able to deal with them even if they hit them with hammers.

Behind them are countless light cavalry wearing fur coats. Their riding skills are so skillful that they seem to be one with the horses. Their weapons are mainly cavalry swords and spears, which are flexible and strong.

The combination of the three makes them almost invincible when they collide with the exhausted army that has been fighting fiercely for more than ten days.

"Master Qu is such a god! Our reinforcements have arrived!" Seeing this, Jida, who had been forced up the high slope and was in passive defense, took off his robe and naked upper body, drew out his long knife and shouted: "Descendants of the Canglang, follow

I will slaughter the Liao dog! Let’s kill the Liao Emperor today to celebrate the New Year!”

"Kill!" The morale of the divination warriors was greatly boosted: "Kill the Emperor of Liao to celebrate the New Year!"

The Liao army was suddenly in chaos. Yelu Hongji could not have imagined that the northwest infantry army of Liao was under the command of Yelu Naye, but he was unable to stop the slave army for ten days.

Moreover, it seems that his rear army has been completely wiped out by Master Qu. The infantry armor of the Liao army has now become Master Qu’s cavalry armor!

Yelu Shenjia rushed to Yelu Hongji and said: "Your Majesty! We can't stop it anymore. I will fight to the death to stop you. Please evacuate to the ancient city of Ju Mu and cross the river to assemble your army!"

The Chinese army had already launched an attack. Seeing the crisis here, several generals were distraught and quickly led their troops to come to the rescue. The entire Liao army's battle formation was in chaos.

The boxcar can be fought from far and near, it is solid and solid, and the war horse is driven to the extreme, making it invincible.

The blocking cavalry troops in front were condescending and attacked again.

There are also the thirteen tribes of Ugu Dilie. Their hatred for the Liao people is even worse than that of the Bai Tatars. The Qingqi are like a swarm of bees, with ten teams in a small group, gathering and roaring, swarming up when they see an advantage, and then separate again in the blink of an eye.

Leaving behind hacked corpses on the ground.

They brought more chaos to the Liao army than the chariot formation and the divination army.

Within a radius of ten miles, there was rain of blood, swords, and galloping horses and warriors everywhere, and the situation fell into complete chaos.

The generals on both sides instantly lost effective command of the troops and fought independently.

The only one that is still an effective organization is Li Kui's fleet.

Tielin, a Liao man, was still loyal to his Majesty. Many Liao warriors even used their bodies to block the galloping horses, or rolled under the advancing wheels, just to buy even a little time for their emperor to retreat.

But these were destined to be in vain. Before Li Kui set out, he specially made a disc out of wooden boards to protect the sides of the wheels. The axle of the carriage originally had a long and sharp protrusion, but now it was spinning crazily, and it was easy to cut the human body.

The car formation was getting closer and closer, and Yelu Hongji finally changed his expression. He didn't even use the big jeering car he used to show off. His horse was nowhere to be found for a while, so he had to turn over and ride on a camel brought by Yelu Shenjia, heading towards the giant. The ancient mother city retreated.

As soon as the banner moved, the army was defeated like a mountain.

The Liao armies were defeated one after another in the direction of the movement of the flag, and Jida led the army to pursue them all the way.

Above the snowy fields, there were wild cries of "Kill the Emperor of Liao to celebrate the New Year" everywhere.

In the twelfth month of the eighth year of Yuanyou, in Dinghai, Jida, the minister of divination, led Wugu and defeated the thirteen tribes of Lie, and defeated Yeluhong based on Kaolaochao.

In the Iron Forest of the Ten Thousand Tent Room of Emperor Liao's palace, thirty thousand soldiers on the frontier collapsed in one day. In the vast snowy wilderness, the situation changed, and there were crazy killings everywhere.

Fortunately, the chariot pursuit could not last long. The Tatars had fought fiercely with the Liao army for many days, and this was their last bloody act. After pursuing for hundreds of miles, Jeddah finally stopped and ordered its troops to clear out the scattered Liao army on the grassland. Check and capture.

Yelu Hongji finally escaped, and 30,000 cavalry troops gradually gathered around him, preparing to cross the river from the other side of Jumu Ancient City.

The Liao people were devastated by this battle. The 150,000-strong army, except for the 20,000 who guarded the ancient city of Jumu, the 30,000 who were still around, and a full 100,000 soldiers who had followed the emperor's personal expedition, dissipated on the snowy field.
