Chapter 103 Shocking War (5)
Chapter 103: Shocking Battle (Five)
Since the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun were cedeed to Liao Kingdom, the Khitans have been doing whatever they want, killing people and setting fires, bullying men and women, and plundering them. The people of Yanyun have always dared to be angry but dared not speak out. Today, at the call of Wu Ji, they finally turned against each other and returned to the embrace of China. This is a great joy. The men cried bitterly and were so excited that they could not speak out. They all murmured with tears in their eyes: "We are finally home! We are finally home!"
For more than a hundred years, the people of Yanyun have been wandering away and become abandoned children. They want to go home, but they have never been able to do it. Now that a hundred years of long-lasting wish has finally come true, the excitement in their hearts is far beyond description.
For the Liao Kingdom, this is a disaster!
At the most critical moment, Han'er turned against the water and caught Yelu Hongji off guard. He really didn't know how to deal with it. In the past, when war was not good, he used infantry to die for cavalry and Han'er to die for Khitans. He raised Han'er just to be a shield. In the past, when Liao Kingdom used it, it was always good, and Han'er dared not die.
Today, Han'er no longer accepts the established arrangement of fate and decisively turned against each other, the consequences were too serious. Without Han'er's cooperation, the battle could no longer be fought. The Liao Kingdom's best-selling cavalry did not mean that it could only use cavalry. The difference between the Khitans and the Huns and Turks in history was that they were no longer all cavalry, but needed the cooperation of multiple troops. Without infantry, cavalry could only wait to give the massacre.
This was enough to make Yelu Hongji depressed, and there were also something even more depressed. A group of people rushed out of the Song army and galloped around on the battlefield, yelling: "Brothers of Yanyun: Wu Du commanded you to pick up weapons and kill Liaogou! If you kill Liaogou, you will be rewarded! Yanyun's brothers, Liaogou's defeat has been decided. If you don't make a contribution at this time, when will you wait?"
It turned out that Li Mingchu was ordered by Wu Ji to come to gather these men and ask them to attack, so the battle would be even better.
At this point, the Liao army's defeat was revealed. It was only a matter of time before its failure. It was indeed the best opportunity to make contributions. The Hanmen couldn't help but be conscious. However, they still had some doubts. Someone asked: "We had been an enemy of the Song Dynasty, and the Song Dynasty did not blame us. We are grateful. Can we really make contributions?"
This is the unanimous voice of the Han people. Although Wu Ji's guarantee is that they believe in Wu Ji's character. Wu Ji said that he would not pursue it, so he would not pursue it. How could he dare to hope to make meritorious and reward? It would be impossible to ask them not to doubt it.
"Do you know who I am?" Li Mingchu pointed at himself, raised his head and thrust his chest, and said proudly: "I am Li Mingchu. Many of you know that Li Mingchu, who has no silver baby, has cut off the commander of Wu Du with a knife!"
Because Li Mingchu's affairs were closely related to Wu Ji, it had become a good story and spread throughout Yanyun. When the men heard this, their eyes widened, looked at him desperately, and asked in surprise: "Are you the Li Mingchu who cut off the commander of Wu Du with a knife?"
"It's really you? Didn't you lie?"
Because of this story, Li Mingchu was quite famous in Yanyun Land, and Han'er was very surprised.
"It's like a fake one!" Li Mingchu smiled proudly and said, "Brothers, after killing Liao Gou, I'll invite you to drink! The commander of Wu Du, said that you can make achievements if you can make achievements. Brothers, Liao Gou has been bullying you for more than a hundred years. Your parents and the deceased ancestors hate them to the core. Can't you be filial sons and take up weapons to kill Liao Gou?"
When hatred is mentioned, the men's eyes are filled with a blazing light. How much hatred has accumulated over the past hundred years? Which family in Yanyun land has no history of blood and tears?
"Take revenge! Take revenge!"
"Kill all the Liao dogs!"
With Wu Ji's guarantee and with Li Mingchu's living textbook, the last trace of doubts among the Hanmen were dispelled. They waved their scimitars, let out a shocking roar, and rushed towards the Liao army in groups.
Just facing the Song army, the Liao army was at a disadvantage. With Han'er joining, the Liao army would be sad, the pressure would be greater, and the defeat would be revealed. It was only a matter of time before its failure.
"Very good!" Wu Ji saw it and was very satisfied. He slapped the horse and led the Converted Army to rush towards Xiao Lu.
The army led by Xiao Lu Shop was mainly Khitans, and there were almost no Han'er. Therefore, the Han'er's turnaround had not had much impact on him. Although Wang Shao suppressed him, Xiao Lu was a good general. It was not easy to defeat him in a short time. Compared to the fact, it was easy to entangle, but it was difficult to defeat him.
When Wu Ji arrived, Xiao Lu was attacked from the front and back, and the formation quickly collapsed. Wu Ji and Wang Shao joined together to coordinate. Wu Ji's intention was to entangle Yelu Hongji, but the situation in front of him had changed due to Han'er's turn against him. He wanted to coordinate with Wang Shao. Therefore, Wu Ji came to see Wang Shao first.
"The defeat of Liaodog is decided, we must prevent Liaodog from escaping!" Wang Shao also had this plan, without saying a polite word, went straight to the point, and said: "What I mean is that Brother Wu, you lead the Converted Army to entangle Yelu Hongji, and don't let him gather the army, and you can't let him escape. This time, it is the best opportunity for us to completely solve the Liao Kingdom, and we must not miss it! Yelu Hongji must not escape!"
Wang Shao had amazing insight and had already judged that this was the best opportunity for the Song Dynasty to solve the land of Yanyun. The current situation was already very beneficial to the Song Dynasty. As long as the momentum was maintained, the Liao army could be defeated. Once the Liao army was defeated, the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun could be recovered. Once the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun were recovered, the Liao Kingdom would be restored back to its original form. It would be impossible to cause any storms, and the time to completely resolve the Liao Kingdom would be ripe.
Of course, to achieve this goal, one thing must be done, that is, the Liao army cannot escape. If the Liao army is completely wiped out by the Song army, then even if Yelu Hongji escapes, he will be powerless. The emperor without soldiers is just a lonely man and cannot cause trouble.
To annihilate the Liao army to the greatest extent, Yelu Hongji cannot gather the army. It is perfect for Wu Ji to entangle Yelu Hongji.
It is best not to let Yelu Hongji escape. Yelu Hongji is a banner. If he can capture him alive, it means that the Hundred Years of the Song and Liao War ended with the complete victory of the Song Dynasty!
Wang Shao is pursuing perfection!
"Yeah!" Wu Ji nodded violently and said, "I think so too. I will entangle Yelu Hongji, and Wang Shumi will gather his brothers, and set up a large encirclement to surround the Liao army, so that no one can escape the net!" Wu Ji's plan is not small.
"That's it!" Wang Shao nodded and raised his thumb with his right hand to Wu Ji, and praised: "Brother Wu, you are the first to do this battle. If you hadn't made Yelu Hongji dizzy, he wouldn't have been so anxious, and he wouldn't have thought of doing his best in one battle and using this stinking move! He actually wanted to surround us like this and eat us. It was really a delusion. If he hadn't been dizzy, he would have thought that this encirclement was not conducive to the performance of Liao dogs, and Liao dogs without cavalry, could they still fight? Haha!"
The more he spoke, he became more and more happy. Later, he looked up to the sky and laughed happily.
He was right. Yelu Hongji was too impatient and eager to achieve success, and played siege and counter-encirclement with the Song army, which was a trap. With Yelu Hongji's cleverness, he must have thought of this. However, they made Wu Ji dizzy and wanted to avenge their shame. They didn't notice it for a while, which made the Liao army fall into this unfavorable situation at the moment.
"When Yelu Hongji was about to surround us, I knew that he would definitely lose, so I played with him like this." Wang Shao was very proud and regretful: "If it weren't for the war, I would have drank a thousand cups with Brother Wu! I have never seen Yelu Hongji's stupid moves like this!"
When Yelu Hongji wanted to surround Wu Ji and the others, Wu Ji also understood the pros and cons. Although he did not discuss it with Wang Shao, the two of them had a very tacit understanding and forced the Liao army into a dilemma.
"Yelu Hongji understands that he will definitely regret it!" Wu Ji nodded, agreeing with this statement.
At this moment, the two of them didn't say much and acted separately. Wang Shao went to gather the Song army and prepared to surround the Liao army. The reason why they dared to play siege and counter-encirclement with the Liao army was that they had absolute confidence in the combat power of the Song army. Even without command and fighting each other, the Song army could win.
Facts proved their judgment. At the moment, the Song army had the advantage of the battle, and Wang Shao's gathering was easy. As soon as he arrived, the Song army there was under his command.
Especially after Zhou Wei, Huangfu Song, Qi Dabao and others met with Wang Shao, the gathering speed was even faster.
On the other hand, Wu Ji led the Song army to attack Yelu Hongji and launched a fierce attack on the Pishi army, which made Yelu Hongji unable to fight back. If you want to hold Yelu Hongji, the best way is to drag the Pishi army. The Pishi army is the most elite army of the Liao Kingdom, and has lost half of it. The Pishi army is now even more precious. Wu Ji dragged the Pishi army, which is equivalent to dragging Yelu Hongji.
The situation on the battlefield became increasingly unfavorable. Han Ju and Xiao Lu asked Yelu Hongji to leave the battlefield quickly. However, he was reluctant to part with the Piss army and repeatedly missed the opportunity for the war.
When he had to grit his teeth and abandon the Pishi army, it was too late. The Song army under Wang Shao's command set up a large encirclement and siege the Liao army.
This is, it will happen two days later.
During these two days, a bloody battle began in full swing, with countless casualties and injuries. Neither Wu Ji, Wang Shao, nor Yelu Hongji expected that the decisive battle would come so quickly, and no one was ready for the decisive battle. The soldiers of the two armies could only cut off the horse's meat when they were hungry.
During the past two days, Wu Ji didn't know how much dead horse meat he ate. The dead horse meat was cold and hard, and it was not delicious. If you are lucky, it would be delicious when you meet a newly dying war horse. The newly dying war horse will be given a meal soon.
It was so difficult that the Song army did not give up, and the Liao army did not give up. Both sides fought. In the end, the Liao army lost and besieged the Song army.
At this moment, if you look from the air, you will see that dozens of miles of Zhuozhou city are red, with war horses galloping, infantry charges, and countless blood flowers splashing, which is extremely beautiful.
This is a blood lake of dozens of miles in radius, and the Liao army led by Yelu Hongji is a small boat in the blood lake, which may be destroyed at any time.
"The overall situation has been decided, I will win again!" Wang Shao looked at the surrounding Liao army and breathed a sigh of relief.
Chapter completed!
