One Piece of Song Dynasty

Chapter 190 Song Army’s Northern Expedition (4)

"Quickly, drive all the defeated soldiers to the enemy's central camp." Yelu Dashi noticed that the Song Army's central camp in the distance was also in some confusion, and without hesitation ordered the defeated Song Army soldiers to be driven towards the central camp. .

In the Chinese army camp, Tong Guan had been awakened from his dream long ago, but his energy had not yet recovered. After all, he was old and was woken up as soon as he fell asleep.

"Where is Liu Yanqing?" Tong Guan said with a cold face: "He commanded troops as the front army. Now the front army is in chaos, where is he?" Liu Yanqing is a veteran general in the army and a close confidant of Tong Guan. The general followed Tong Guan in the conquest of Fang La, so unlike other generals of the Western Army, he was able to command an army of as the vanguard of the army, which shows Tong Guan's trust, but this time the vanguard army undoubtedly made Tong Guan lose face. The Liao army easily broke into the former army camp.

Zhe Kecun and Zhe Keqiu rushed over with their own soldiers, as did Zhong Shidao and others.

Zhong Shidao cupped his fists and said: "Prime Minister, the Liao army obviously saw that our army's defense was not tight, so they launched a surprise attack at night. Now that the front army is in chaos, the general is worried that the enemy will drive the defeated troops towards the central army." Come, attack the central army and make it chaotic, then our army will be unable to recover."

Zhe Kecun echoed: "Yes, what Mr. Zhong said is true. Prime Minister, the Liao army was caught by surprise. The Chinese army is not ready yet. Once the rebel army breaks in, the whole army will probably be defeated."

Tong Guan reacted and said: "Yes, you guys quickly organize a second line of defense. You must not let the rebels come in. The damn Liao army actually launched a surprise attack at this time. When a certain family captures Youzhou, the Khitan must be defeated." He’s a good-looking person.”

"Don't get close to the Chinese army, don't get close to the Chinese army." Soon Zhe Keqiu, Yao Gu and others led the army to organize a second line of defense. The Song army's shield hands were in front and the spearmen were behind to block the way. The road of the Chinese army.

"Quick, charge up, don't let the enemy react." Yelu Dashi, who was directing the army's attack, saw the second line of defense formed by the Song army and felt a little anxious. Thousands of elite cavalry drove the Wei army towards the central army.

"Fire the arrows," Zhe Keqiu watched as more and more defeated soldiers squeezed the shield soldiers, and the spearmen couldn't bear to assassinate their own robes. Seeing that the second line of defense was about to be broken, he finally gave the bowman the answer: "Let the arrows go." Arrow command.

For a time, countless sharp arrows flew towards the defeated soldiers, screams could not be heard, and countless people were panicked.

"Look at the fire, the camp is burned down."

"His grandma wants us to die. Rush over."

Suddenly there was a roar among the rebellious army. The defeated soldiers' eyes were red. They suddenly burst out with powerful combat power and rushed towards the shield formation. The second line of defense collapsed immediately. The rebellious army rushed into the Chinese army's camp. The camp immediately became chaotic.

Tong Guan looked older when he saw this scene, and he knew that he was now helpless.

Master Zhongdao said with a bitter look on his face: "My dear wife, please leave here. We are defeated. If we don't leave, it will be too late."

Tong Guan showed a trace of panic on his face and said: "Retreat." The Liao army was a hundred steps away from him. If he didn't leave, he would be captured. By that time, everything would be in vain. The green hills left were not afraid of not having firewood. , just retreat first, reorganize the army and then fight. After thinking everything through, Tong Guan no longer hesitated and ran away on horseback under the protection of Zhong Shidao and others.

After Tong Guan left, the Song army camp became more chaotic. The soldiers were scattered in all directions, trampling on each other and countless people, resulting in heavy casualties, not to mention the loss of materials.

Yelu Dashi said proudly: "Disperse them, try not to kill people, leave as many people alive as possible, and don't burn the supplies. They are all our things." These captive soldiers can be used as bargaining chips when negotiating with the Song Dynasty, and they can also be used to win over Hui Jinfu showed the Han people in Nanjing how incompetent the Song army was.

Outside Waqiao Pass, Tong Guan's shirt was covered with dust, and his face was full of vicissitudes of life. He no longer had the high spirits he had when he came out of the pass. He was more disappointed, fearful, and panicked. Looking around, the generals were there, but everyone was The panic was obvious, and there was a hint of embarrassment and bitterness in his eyes. The -strong army fell apart overnight. He and others were defeated without even seeing the face of the enemy. What a coward.

Tong Guan said with a gloomy face: "Liu Yanqing, come out to a certain family." Seeing that Liu Yanqing's armor was skewed and his body looked injured, Tong Guan's anger also subsided a little.

Without thinking, Liu Yanqing knelt on the ground and lost his voice: "My dear, I am guilty, I am incompetent, I did not expect that the Liao people would attack at this time, and they were negligent in their defense, and all the sentinels were killed. Please forgive me."

When the generals heard this, their faces turned a little red. In fact, not only Liu Yanqing did not expect it, but most people did not expect it. They did not expect that the Liao army would dare to send troops to attack the Song army while the Jin army was watching eagerly.

Tong Guan sighed and said: "Okay, you get up too. I can't blame you entirely for this matter. Even a certain family underestimated the enemy. Let's reorganize the army and fight again. The generals will collect the defeated troops here, and a certain family will report to the officials." Please ask for more troops and supplies. After we have reorganized our army, we will send troops to Youzhou again. By then, we must capture Youzhou."

The generals clasped their fists and said, "Yes, Prime Minister."

Tong Guan led the remaining defeated generals into Waqiao Pass quietly without attracting anyone's attention. Tong Guan had already ordered the generals at the first pass to block the news.

After a night of fighting, the Liao army did not finish cleaning the battlefield until dawn in the morning.

Yelu Dashi asked: "Xiao Orila, how much will our army gain from this battle?"

Xiao Orila replied: "Commander, our army captured Song people in this battle, killed , and seized a large amount of supplies. We have not yet calculated the statistics."

Yelu Dashi waved his hand and said: "Stop counting, the supplies have been taken away, and the prisoners have been taken back to parade in the streets to boost the morale of our people. In the past few years since the war with the Jin Kingdom, we have not won such a big victory for a long time. Let’s have a good celebration.”

Xiao Orila said: "Yes, Commander, it's time for us to celebrate. This will help boost the morale of our army."

The Liao army returned to Xijin Mansion with many Song soldiers and captured materials. A large crowd soon gathered on the streets of Xijin Mansion. People pointed at the captured Song soldiers, and some even threw rags at the prisoners. Vegetable leaves.

Liang Xing and Zhao Yun had just woken up from a drunken night when they heard Niu San shouting: "Two commanders, something serious has happened."

Liang Xing stretched his waist and said, "Keep your voice down, don't worry about others hearing you."

Niu San scratched his head and said, "There is no one around our house anymore. All the neighbors have gone to the street to watch the fun."

Liang Xing was excited and said, "Oh, we've all gone to watch the excitement. What's the excitement? By the way, you just said something happened. What happened?"
