This chapter has been revised several times and postponed for several days.
After all, this battle is almost the final war scene in "Tang Qi".
Thank you for staying with "Tang Qi" in the past few years.
Thanks!
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
A box was passed from Dairi Mandala in the north of the Western Desert to Luntai, and then from Luntai to Qiuci. A middle-aged monk held the box in his hand and walked into the golden tent. Zhang Mai pointed at the monk and said to Guo Luo: " This is Master Zanhua¡¯s great disciple.¡±
Guo Luo nodded. He also knew roughly what happened in Mobei. In order to monitor Western Mobei, Zhang Mai spent a winter in Luntai and then came to Qiuci. However, he still left more than half of his troops in Luntai for preparation. Urgent.
The box was opened, and inside was Yelu Ruan¡¯s head!
Seeing this head, Zhang Mai had neither surprise nor surprise on his face. He just nodded and said to the middle-aged monk: "You did a good job."
The middle-aged monk said: "This is what a poor monk should do."
Zhang Mai asked again: "How is the master?"
The middle-aged monk said: "The Living Buddha has been in seclusion from the beginning to the end. He only preached the Buddha's decree. Although my disciple is tonsured and not in Buddhism, the order to behead and subdue demons also comes from the decree of the Living Buddha."
Zhang Mai said: "Please bring back the resurrected Buddha. I, Zhang Mai, will never forget my original promise. From now on, may the Buddha's light shine on the desert forever. May my Buddha resolve all surliness with compassion. May there never be any more evil spirits under the sky of Hu Han." Killings, no more invasions, all sentient beings will be peaceful and happy."
The middle-aged monk put his hands together in praise, proclaimed the name of the Buddha and retreated.
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
"The dust has settled in Mobei!" Zhang Mai covered the black box containing the salt-made head, patted his knees, and said to Guo Luo: "Yel¨¹ Ruan is determined to be a traitor. Making such a big noise is just a drag. We lost the lives of more than a dozen tribes. The battle in the river gave us no worries in Lingxi for ten years. After today, Mobei will also have peace for thirty years."
Guo Luodao: "What about thirty years from now?"
Zhang Mai said: "Tubo Buddhism is very suitable for the soil of Mobei. In thirty years, it will be completely eradicated. Besides, in thirty years, we will all be old! But by then, we will not have finished what we should do." It¡¯s all done.¡±
He smiled and said: "This time when I visited the west, there were many people who were ready to make a move. Even Meng Chang's stagnant water was slightly rippled. An Shenqi also came to report in Qinzhou. Qin Xi has been in Shu for the past six months. There were a lot more spies, but after he struck a few sticks, the southwest became calm."
"What's going on in Liaodong?"
"The battle report has not come yet." Zhang Mai said: "But the latest news from Guo Wei is that Liu Zhiyuan has been much more honest recently. Liu Zhiyuan is more honest. Most of the battle in Liaodong is going smoothly. Regardless of whether the battle in Liaodong is a victory or a defeat, we are probably going to set off on the road. .Chang'anit's time to go back"
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
Thousands of miles away in the east, Shuluping was awakened from his sleep by the sound of cannon.
Half a month ago. Suddenly came the news that Liaojin had fallen and that the class had been killed in battle. The Tang army landed, and the Tang troops, who originally thought they were thousands of miles away, suddenly arrived right before their eyes!
When the news spreads. Within a few days, the entire southern Liaoning was in rebellion! The Han people in Liaodong, who were originally extremely obedient, suddenly became ferocious! This makes Shuluping heartbroken!
In Shu Luping¡¯s mind, she doesn¡¯t think there is anything wrong with Li Hu¡¯s recent oppression of the Han people after the regency - that is reasonable! As for the forced migration of the Han people in Liaodong from the Yan region, hundreds of thousands of families were destroyed during the migration - Shu Luping had never remembered this, but in the past two years. Daliao treated these Han children with kindness and tax exemption. Shu Lu Ping always keeps these "gifts" in mind. And these guys are not grateful for this! The Tang army betrayed Daliao as soon as they arrived - such a wolf-hearted ant people, Shu Luping felt that he was too kind at the time.
Unlike Yelu Chage, when the great defeat came, Yelu Chage felt that he was wrong and that maybe Yelu Wuzhi was right.
Shu Luping's thoughts were in the opposite direction. She also felt that she was wrong. Maybe she should have credited Yelu Chacao from the beginning instead of giving it to those Han ants! You shouldn't have listened to Yelu Wuzhi and Han Yanhui's tricks, and you shouldn't have been so nice to those Han thieves! So much so that if you rebel now, you will lose everything!
But when Zhao Zan¡¯s fleet sailed to the Dongliang River and approached the Liaoyang Port, this anger disappeared and was replaced by great panic!
The Khitan army was all on an expedition, and the interior of Liaoyang Mansion was empty. Most of the Khitan people left behind were old and weak. Shulu Ping hurriedly appointed Yelu Shuogu and Xiao Han, but it was too late.
As the news of the tax exemption order spread, almost everyone in the Liao River Basin was willing to join the army. When Zhao Zan's fleet entered the Dongliang River, hundreds of thousands of Han people had followed Mo Baique, and the entire city of Tokyo in Daliao was They were surrounded, and more than half of the people in Liaoyang City were still eyeing the Khitan.
Han people account for 70% to 80% in Liaojin, and nearly half of the Han people in Liaoyang. Excluding the Bohai and Goryeo ethnic groups, relatively speaking, the Khitans have become a minority ethnic group. Under such a situation, even though Shuluping was full of suspicion of Han Yanhui, he still did not dare to touch him - if he continues to suppress the Han people in the city at this moment, who knows what kind of follow-up reaction will happen next!
At this time, there are more than 10,000 Liao soldiers in Tokyo city - these troops were hurriedly summoned from various places by Yelu Shuogu after hearing that Liao and Tianjin fell. The composition of the army is 30% Khitan, 30% Zahu, and 30% Han army. Although they lost the dock of Dongliang River, they still firmly defended Liaoyang's city defense.
Hundreds of thousands of Liaodong Han people who had brought their own dry food had not received military training and gathered loosely outside Tokyo. They failed to launch an effective attack on the heavily guarded Liaoyang. Zhao Zan's navy occupied the dock, but there was no large-scale attack. Going ashore for the decisive battle, according to his agreement with General Gao Yangzhesan, the strategy for Liaoyang was only to besieged, and the real siege could wait until the battle to the west was resolved.
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
The three generals did not disappoint Zhao Zan. Not long after, the news came that the reinforcements coming from Yelucha were intercepted and the entire army was wiped out. Zhao Zan was overjoyed when he heard the news and deliberately opened a passage. People were sent to spread the news into the city. When the head of Draguo Kuo was erected high outside the city, there was no longer panic in Liaoyang City, but a deep despair.
Every day since then has become Shu Luping¡¯s nightmare. It has become a nightmare for the senior officials of the Liao Kingdom and a nightmare for the entire Khitan!
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
Almost at the same time that Liaoyang Mansion heard about it, the news also reached Yuguan.
After Yelu Lihu learned about the situation in Liaodong, he suddenly felt as if the sky was falling and the earth was sinking!
"I originally thought that the Battle of Tangshan was already a terrible defeat, but I didn't expect that the defeat was just the beginning!
News of the fall of Liaojin came out. The entire Khitan in Yuguan City panicked.
When I heard that the entire Yelucha army had been wiped out, the Khitan people in the city burst into tears.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? off Liaodong is already the world of the Han, millions of Han people are there, and then a powerful Tang army marched in. The lonely Liaoyang Mansion will fall sooner or later!
Their families, their relatives, their friends, their roots - they are all there! The Khitan generals in Yuguan City knew how they treated the Han people on weekdays! Once the resentment accumulated over years of oppression is released, who knows what will happen in Liaodong?
Hatred will definitely wash over the ground, and anger will definitely burn the whole of Tokyo!
Almost on the first night after hearing the news, one battalion after another broke out in Yuguan City!
Someone calls me mother. Some people call me daddy, some people call me wife, some people call me son
Then a completely irrational collective voice broke out¡ª¡ª
"Go back. Go back!"
"Go back to Liaoyang Mansion quickly!"
¡°Go back and save people, go back and save people!¡±
Facing the hysterical shouting of tens of thousands of soldiers, the hearts of all the Khitan generals collapsed like bowstrings stretched to the full moon!
Their relatives are also in Tokyo! They want to go back too!
But now, between Tokyo and Yuguan stands an army that has just completely defeated Yelu Chagong!
This barrier is not only a distance of thousands of miles, but also an insurmountable distance of life and death.
Tokyo, I can¡¯t go back
Relatives. Missing
But now, this kind of rational advice is completely unreasonable! Now who dares to make a sound to prevent the generals from returning eastward? There is a *10* chance that it will lead to a bombing of the camp!
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
Yelu Wuzhi, who barely maintained his rationality, summoned the generals of the army. The first meeting after the bad news was held.
At the meeting, everyone¡¯s faces were filled with sadness and despair.
No one spoke, and the silent meeting was unbearable!
Finally, Yelu Lihu suddenly jumped up, waving his eyebrows and beard, and shouted: "No matter what! No matter what! No matter what! Everyone listens to the order and follow me back to save Tokyo!"
At the military meeting, everyone looked at each other. No one expected that the first sentence of this meeting was what they heard!
Yelu HouseWith a dark face, he said: "Li Hu! Are you crazy!"
Now he is not called the Regent anymore!
At this moment, the regent and the marshal of the world's troops seemed to have become a joke.
Liaoyang no longer has a strong army, and Yelucha is defeated again. The entire Khitan fighting force is here at Yuguan. In other words, this is the last hope for the Khitans.
"I said, go save Tokyo!"
"Save? How to save?" Xiao Jali murmured.
If we try to save Tokyo under the current situation, not only will Yuguan be difficult to hold, but even those who rush there will die!
The Tang army had already sent reinforcements once, and Yelu Chagong had fallen into the trap of the Tang people. Could it be that the Khitan people had to jump into the same trap again?
"There are millions of Han people in southern Liaoning!" Yelucha said with a red face.
Liaojin fell, Chaga was defeated, and those millions of Han people in southern Liaoning you can guess what the stance of those people would be like if you think about it!
"We know that there are millions of Han people in southern Liaoning and that Tokyo is very dangerous, but so what!" Yelu Wuzhi tried to keep himself calm: "The Tang army will definitely set up an ambush on the road! Chagao has been fooled once, we can't do it again First time!"
Jinzhou has fallen into the hands of the Tang Army, and the east and west ends of the Liaoxi Corridor have been sealed. Even if you want to return to Tokyo, you can't get through!
How to go back? How to come back for help!
At this time, Sacou also lost his mind and said: "Yeah, we can't be fooled again, butbutbut are we just going to watch millions of Han people in southern Liaoning burn down Liaoyang Mansion? Kill all our wives and children. ? Destroying our Khitan¡¯s century-old foundation? And if we stay here, there is no way to survive!¡±
A more depressing atmosphere was suppressed in everyone's mind.
There are mountains to the north and the sea to the south. To the west was the Yanjing Iron Army, which had just completely defeated them, while to the east was the intercepted return route.
If you fight back, you may fall into a trap.
But staying in Yuguan also has no future.
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
At the meeting, Yelu Lihu continued his irrational rant.
And gradually. The Khitan generals also seemed to be crazy, and they responded one by one: "That's right! That's right! Fight back! Fight back! Fight back to Tokyo!"
"Go back and save people!"
Yelu Wuzhi looked at everything in front of him and sat down on the chair helplessly. These generals who had experienced countless wars seemed to have lost their rationality at this moment, even them. Not to mention the low-level soldiers outside!
At this time, a young but calm voice said: "Go back! The soldiers are eager to return. We can't stop it! If we stop it forcefully, the Yuguan period will collapse in less than ten days. It's better to make use of this homesickness. Kill in one fell swoop. Go back to Liaoyang Mansion - that may be our last chance!"
Yelu Wuzhi looked over and found that the person who said this was brother Yelu Xiu who had shown great success in the Yanjing surprise attack. Yelu Wuzhi felt that this statement seemed reasonable, but in fact it was still a very irresponsible risk. But he had to admit that if he were to forcibly stop the Khitan soldiers who had fallen into a semi-mad state, the Yuguan era would collapse without a fight.
Yelu Li said wildly: "Look! Brother Xiu said the same thing! Go back! Go back now! Clean your sword and prepare your horse! We will fight back tomorrow!"
All the generals at the meeting jumped up and shouted loudly, saying in unison: "Take the order!"
Yelu House still collapsed weakly on the chair. Look at these generals who responded to the order - perhaps Li Hu's order has never received such a unanimous response. This was the response, but it made Yelu Wuzhi feel that it was like a knock on the door to hell.
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
"Crazycrazyall crazy!" Yelu Wuzhi almost cried!
Kill back now? How can there be any chance of winning?
Although the Liao army still has tens of thousands of people, the Tang army will definitely set up an ambush in Liaodong!
Xiao Jali suddenly whispered: "They are crazy. But what if they are not crazy? Should they stay in Yuguan and wait for Zhang Mai to surrender?"
Hearing the word "surrender", Yelu Wuzhi's heart felt like being pricked by a needle!
Yes, if you fight back, you will most likely be defeated.
But staying here is still despair!
With both east and west ends cut off, the narrow Liaoxi Corridor will definitely not be able to support tens of thousands of troops. Now, while the Tang army's foothold was not stable, the army surged eastward. There is indeed a "just in case" opportunity, and once the Tang army erected left and right fortified cities. At that time, Yuguan will be defeated without a fight!
By then, we really have to ""surrender"?
As the pride of the Northern Kingdom for hundreds of years, Yelu House cannot accept it! He also understood that there were some understanding among the generals present, but they all refused to accept such humiliation! I would rather fight eastward and take risks to gain a chance than surrender!
Yelu's house was silent.
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
Before the meeting was over, there were already soldiers fleeing from Yuguan. The Khitan people had nowhere to go, but the Bohai, Goryeo, and Han armies and even the Uighurs and Enemies were all fleeing!
Now, in the eyes of many people, the Khitan is finished!
Now, for them, as long as they escape from this terrible battlefield, and when the war is over, they may be able to save their lives, but the ruler above them will be changed from Khitan to Han.
That evening, a letter was sent from Luanzhou.
That was a letter of persuasion to surrender - when I saw the handwriting, it turned out to be Han Deshu's handwriting!
Yelu Lihu was furious and tore the surrender letter into pieces!
"The Han dogs have insulted me too much!" Li Hu pointed to the west and cursed: "When I regain Liaodong and kill all the Liao and Han people, I will come to settle accounts with you!"
The angry Yelu Lihu integrated an army of 50,000 and returned eastward to save the Liao Dynasty. All the Khitan people who were unwilling to sit back and die - including most of the remaining Pishis - were dispatched!
The remaining troops who were unwilling to follow Li Hu stayed in Yuguan.
At the end of July, the eleventh year of Tiance, the Liaoxi Corridor has already begun to feel autumnal, and the chilly smell in the wind is getting stronger and stronger. Xiao Haili didn't want to come, so Yelu Wuzhi came alone to see him off.
????????????? After leaving, neither side knows the fate of each other - nor does it know whether the person leaving will die, the person staying behind will die, or both parties will die.
After saying goodbye, we returned to Yuguan City. Yelu Housekeeper discovered that Xiao Haili was looking at the retreating figure of Yelu Lihu in the crenels at the top of the city. He was disgusted with Yelu Lihu, but at this moment, tears were shed in his eyes - he was not crying for Lihu, but for Khitan. !
Yelu Lihu went here and took away the last of the Khitan's men and horses, and also took away the last of the Khitan's seeds of force! If something goes wrong again this time. Then the entire Khitan would really be doomed!
"Perhaps the soldiers will win!" Yelu Wuzhi murmured.
"The sad soldiers will win?"
"Yes." Yelvuzhi said: "Li Hu went here with the intention of dying. Maybe this intention of dying can be a turning point."
The desire to die
The sad soldiers will win
Although they feel it is very slim, now, they can only place their hope on this vague vision.
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
The 50,000-strong army returned eastward to rescue the Liao Dynasty. In order to avoid repeating the mistakes of inspection and cutting, try to ensure the concentration of the army during the march, and at the same time send sentries widely to explore the road ahead from a distance to eliminate all kinds of ambushes. Eight days later, the army approached Jinzhou!
The sentry cavalry discovered that three armies of the Tang Army had gathered on the banks of the Xiaoling River in Jinzhou. Gao Xingzhou, Yang Xin, and Zhe Congshi were all present. Gao Xingzhou is in the middle and Yang Xin is on the left. Zhe Congshi is on the right. There are more than 8,000 troops in each of the three groups, all of them cavalry. This is a more complete lineup than when they ambush the police. Although Jinzhou has been half burned, these three armies and horses have formed an iron wall, completely cutting off the return route of all Hu Qi!
The sentry cavalry can¡¯t get through.
Yelu, Li, Hu and others also probably guessed that the Tang army was going to fight openly and openly here!
"It's the White Horse Silver Spear Regiment, the Spear King of the Tang Dynasty, and the Arrow King of the Tang Dynasty!" Brother Yelvxiu said: "This is also the most powerful army among the Tang Dynasty troops!"
After Yanjing reorganized its army, except for a few prestigious groups, they retained limited strength. The rest of the troops accepted the reorganization, and after the reorganization the veterans dispersed into various new military regions. The overall quality of the various ranks of the Tang Army has become more average, but there are still a few units with outstanding strength.
"Since the other party has this idea, then we will help him!" Yelu Li said nonsense. "The Tang people probably want to have another battle at Tangshan, but what they have to face today is not a coward like Du Chongwei, but the elite of my Khitan!"
Not all of the 50,000 Liao army were Khitan people - among them, the Han, Bohai, Korean and other ethnic groups, under the coercion of the Khitan cavalry, almost everyone was timid when facing the three trump cards of the Tang army.
Some people have noticed that one of the reasons for the failure of the Tangshan Battle was that Du Chongwei's army was defeated and moved back to the Pishi rear army. This time Yelu Lihu changed his mind. He put the most powerful and elite troops at the front and concentrated his strength. Attack the connection zone between the White Horse Silver Spear Regiment and the Zhe Cong Sui Department! As long as we break through this iron wall, we will fight back to Liaodong in one breath!
"Take a rest tonight, build up your horsepower, and fight early tomorrow morning, and rush over in one go!"
Seeing the movements of the Khitan people, the three generals of the Tang Army also guessed that the decisive battle would be tomorrow.
"The marshal said it himself," Yang Xin said at the military meeting in the evening: "If the war continues to this point, then don't let another leather room go back!"
Yelu Lihu¡¯s tactical arrangements were simple and crude, but Zhang Mai¡¯s instructions were even simpler and cruder!
Yang Xin said: "We came across the sea. This battle is not only to win, not just to annihilate the enemy, but also to fight so that all barbarians will not dare to look up to me in the Tang Dynasty from now on. In one fell swoop, the Northeast will be destroyed for three hundred years." Peaceful world!"
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
This night, Xi Zhong did not sleep. Together with the generals of the fortification soldiers, he continued to deduce the lineup and tactics for the next day.
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
On the second day, the genius was bright, and the soldiers and horses of both sides gathered together without shields - whether it was Liao cavalry or Tang cavalry!
Yelu Lihu made the decision to charge, but he did not stand at the forefront. It was Brother Yelvxiu who rode at the forefront.
When Yelu Lihu gave the tactical instructions yesterday, Brother Yelvxiu didn't agree with it, but he didn't object either. And during today's battle, he asked Ying to stand at the front of the battle formation!
"We, the Khitan, have been in the world for hundreds of years, and there must be someone qualified to join the army!"
He pulled out a saber made of iron and looked at the blade, which was polished like a mirror, with his own face reflected in it.
The founding of the Khitan clan lies in mastering the iron-making technology. This sharp blade and the majestic physique on horseback have created a century-old legend of this great nation. It's a pity that a great nation encountered another even greater nation, a century-old hero. Encountered another thousand-year-old strong soul! With three thousand years of accumulation in China, coupled with some training from Anxi, facing such a nation is a nightmare for all neighbors and enemies!
"Is this the saying in Bianwen that when Yu is born, why is Liang born?"
Behind the Khitan cavalry, the horn has sounded!
That¡¯s a sign of a charge!
Dozens of warriors use their superhuman lung capacity to stir up the vibrations of the air. It sounded the prelude to the charge of the Khitan nation with a determination to die!
But at this moment, artillery fire sounded from the rear of the Tang Army!
Zhang Mai is still satisfied with the lethality of the copper fire gun, but the demonstration-type cannons have reached the limit that can be achieved in this era!
Human lungs plus the sound of a trumpet. Completely submerged in the violent vibrations of gunpowder tearing the air! The battle has not yet begun, but the enemy is already at a disadvantage.
After the booming sound like thunder, tens of thousands of people shouted at the same time: "Datang - mighty! Datang - mighty!"
Brother Yeluxiu judged based on the shouts of the Tang army and speculated that the total number of the Tang army was not more than 30,000! Behind the 28,000 cavalry, there should be more than 15,000 troops. What kind of troops are they? infantry? Crossbowmen? Or the kind of army that breathes fire?
But now it¡¯s too late to think about it. Even if you think about it, it¡¯s too late to change the tactical layout. In the current situation, both sides are ready to take action!
The clarion call of Khitan has come to an end. At the last moment, the Khitan's nine thousand Pishi warriors were also led by Brother Yelvxiu. At the same time, he let out his final howl! Nine thousand knives, with the urgency to go home, with the last anger, with the pride of preferring death to death, point to the east!
"Han people, go to hell!"
The charge begins!
Let go of the horse's hooves. Rush forward regardless!
At the same time, Yelu Lihu also issued an order for the entire army to attack. The following 40,000 horses rushed out at the same time, and 200,000 horse hooves shook the soft land on the west bank of Xiaoling River!
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
The Liao army charged. Tang Jun did not move!
Twenty-four thousand cavalry, standing as tall as Mount Tai and motionless as an iron wall!
Twenty-four thousand people, facing the cavalry charge, were surprisingly quiet.
At the same time, behind the 20,000 cavalry, there were nearly 20,000 people - including 8,000 fortification soldiers and more than 10,000 civilians summoned from Liaodong to help - who were already turning like wheels.
"Khitan! Go to hell!"
Xi Zhong roared. He seemed to see the blood and fire in the Huanma Highlands, and saw Xi Sheng's cold eyes before he died. Following his order, hundreds of fireballs came one after another from the Tang Army's cavalry formation. Then it flew out and fell on the center and front of the Khitan charging troops like burning hailstones!
During the Mobei expedition, land transportation was completely unable to transport heavy equipment, but after crossing the sea, there was no problem in transporting heavy equipment. In this era, despite the guidance of Zhang Mai's "Practical Learning", the firearms developed by the fortification department were still diverse, including artillery, flying fire guide arrows, fire dragon watering cans, bombing fire caltrops Seventeen kinds of weapons were spraying out their lethality here at the same time. The limit is like a huge testing ground.
Artillery launches, fire dragons flying, and caltrops ejected four times after landing. West of the Xiaoling River is a grassland. In the golden autumn, the grass is withered and yellow. Under the flames, the ground is becoming drier and even on fire!
However, although the various firearms are powerful, their lethality cannot keep up with their apparent power.
Brother Yeluxiu is not Du Chongwei, and the Pishi cavalry are not traitor troops forced into battle. Facing the flames, the Nine Thousand Pishis did not waver and still just charged forward! Charge forward! Charge forward!
The gorgeous scene caused by the firearms frightened some horses and injured the flesh of some knights. However, unless there was a direct hit, the charge of the elite leather room would not stop as long as they were not killed. The damage to the flesh could not make the elite leather room give up the charge. ! There were also huge fireballs crashing down, killing those who caught them. The scene was very bloody and terrifying, but the battle-hardened leather room chose to ignore it! Ignore and fear not! Keep moving forward without fear! On the whole, the damage caused by this round of firearms is not enough to prevent the cavalry from charging on a large scale!
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
"Is this the last resort for you Tang people? Haha, haha!" Yelu Lihu was also charging. Although he was in the middle and rear formations, he couldn't help but laugh wildly when he saw all this: "It's useless! It's useless! This is useless!" We can only deal with cowards like Du Chongwei. We cannot deal with the invincible henchmen of our Great Khitan!"
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
"Datang - mighty!"
Twenty-four thousand cavalry made a slight move, making way for hundreds of small gaps, and launched hundreds of copper fire guns!
"Boom boom boom¡ª¡ª"
The artillery bombarded them indiscriminately, and the impact of the shells knocked down dozens of elite Khitan knights who were at the forefront in the blink of an eye! However, dozens of people died, and there were thousands of successors behind! As long as the elite leather warriors at the forefront remain unwavering. The troops coming from behind will continue to move forward, forward, forward!
The artillery needed to cool down. In this gap, the bed crossbow was pushed out, and dozens of bed crossbows were fired at the same time. When you meet people, you nail people; when you meet horses, you nail horses!
The most forward knights of the Liao Army were stripped off another layer, but the followers still moved forward bravely!
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
"Amazing!"
Yang Xin marveled!
"As expected of the Khitan!"
It is also said that it is appropriate to fold.
Facing such artillery fire and crossbow formations, and suffering such casualties, their courage and boldness in charging into the formation were not compromised at all. Even though they are enemies, they are still awe-inspiring!
"Fortunately, fortunately"
Gao Xingzhou sighed, he wanted to say that fortunately the one standing in front of the formation now was Tang Qi, who also had the courage of steel. If he had replaced the troops with a weaker will, he would have turned around just seeing the power of such a charge. escaped. Once the front formation as a cover is shaken, no matter how many sharp weapons and equipment are behind the cavalry formation, it will be useless! As long as the cavalry rushes into the equipment formation, the next battle will be one-sided.
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
"Datang - mighty!"
Waist crossbow, machine crossbow, powerful crossbow. Ready at the same time!
"Launch!"
The arrows are like rain!
The stone sling formation has the longest range, followed by the artillery and crossbows. When they enter the range of the crossbows, the two sides are already very close!
However, it was at this moment that Xi Zhong, who was sitting on the viewing platform at the back, began to show excitement - even a hint of madness!
"Dad! Look! Watch my kid avenge you!"
He did not use a command flag, but a rare Mo Dao to command! And this move was also authorized by Zhang Mai!
Mo Dao waved. The catapult, which was still intact, moved and its range was adjusted.
"put!"
Fireballs are coming from across the sky!
The group of fireballs is mixed with refining bombs!
This time. It was concentrated in several places!
The Pishi cavalry are experienced in combat and vigilantly avoid the landing places of dense groups of fireballs. The refining bomb exploded, sputtering out a piece of refining oil, and the terrifying flames immediately engulfed the surrounding ground!
However, this burning is far from over!
A strong smell of gunpowder spread out, followed closely by a terrifying explosion¡ª¡ª
¡°Pa bang bang¡ª??¡±
"Boom, boom, boom¡ª¡ª"
"Boom, boom¡ª¡ª"
All kinds of loud noises, dumb noises, crazy noises
With constant explosions in the battle formation, Yelu Lihu felt the ground shaking - No! It¡¯s not that the ground is shaking! The land is flying!
This time, the fireball group was simply the fuse, igniting the mines hidden underground. All the previous firearms projectiles were just appetizers. This improved mine array was the main meal of this decisive battle!
Dozens of catapults are constantly adjusting their directions, constantly triggering landmines buried underneath!
Countless pieces of land were blown apart, and the weeds that had been parched by the previous flames also burned quickly!
???????????????????????????????!
Amidst the constant explosions, flesh and blood flew everywhere, and severed limbs were scattered everywhere! The horses neighed and the knights screamed!
The knight in the leather room is scared for the first time!
This horrific scene, this purgatory-like situation, makes people feel like they are in a fiery hell!
The earth is flying, flesh and blood are flying, severed limbs are flying, human heads are flying
Once the chaos starts, it can¡¯t be stopped!
"Daddy, have you seen it? Have you seen it?"
Xi Zhong shouted crazily! He witnessed all this, and it was as if he was witnessing all this on behalf of Xi Sheng!
The artillery technology of the Tang Army has not yet reached the point where long-range bombardment can kill people and horses in large numbers, but the design and use of gunpowder packets took shape as early as the Battle of Huanma Highlands, and the current war has also It has concentrated 60% of the gunpowder produced by Tiance Datang over the years, and part of it is new gunpowder just shipped from Qiuci!
The catapult no longer throws fireballs, but instead throws firewood and grass balls. After bursts of explosions, the spreading flames engulfed the ground beside the Xiaoling River. The dry grass and bushes on the ground were also ignited. Hundreds of After all the mines and gunpowder burial sites were detonated, the Xiaoling River turned into a sea of ??blood and fire!
The Liao army did not distinguish between Hu, Han, Bohai, and Goryeo, and all the war horses were finally in chaos! All the cavalry finally lost their last hope of victory! Even the hope of completing a breakthrough is gone.
"Ahhhh, ahhhh!" Yelu Lihu screamed!
In the flames and smoke, he began to be unable to distinguish between east, west and north. He finally realized what a terrible mistake he had made!
Brother Yelu Xiu¡¯s eyes are also red. He who rushed to the forefront of Jiuqianpi Room is actually not dead yet!

Brother Yeluxiu, who had exhausted his mental strength, pierced the chest of a Tang Army soldier regardless of his own flaws!
At the same time, two Ma Zhan Tang knives swung at him, one cut off his shoulder, and the other cut off his head!
