The long night has just passed, but there is no rising red sun at the junction of the sky and the earth, but only a gloomy gloomy line.The winter in the northern region is very early, and the vast white plains are trapped between the world of snow and ice.All the imperial guards on the sentry tower wore blue iron armor on their shoulders, and a thin layer of frost had already formed on the molten weapons.When the sun rises above the junction of the sky and the earth, a dense black shadow is also diffused from the end as far as the eye can see, with a clear formation and gradually approaching.

In an instant, thousands of golden drums on the sentry tower rang loudly, resounding through the sky of the last line of defense of the defenders. "Report—" Wu Yingxun quickly ran from the sentry tower to the general's tent, his chest heaving violently under the iron armor, and he knelt loudly: "Report to the general! Beiliao has sent troops!"

In the past year, the army of the Northern Liao Dynasty attacked three Jokhang cities in a row, and the northern border was forced to retreat to the south for nearly [-] li. If they attacked another city, they would be able to reach the border of Shizhou.The ice armor on the snowy field was baked with a layer of off-white glaze by the light of the sunrise, and was instantly crushed by thousands of cavalry, and the splashed ice was instantly trampled into the sand by horseshoes, which was unstoppable.

Qi Mo lifted up his general cloak, and took the left and right battalion generals and deputy general Qingsong to the high platform of the sentry tower.Thousands of Liao soldiers have gathered in the snowy field that was still empty yesterday!Next to my ears was the drum array to meet the soldiers, mixed with the sound of horns with passionate fighting spirit, and accompanied by the golden and stone-like footsteps of heavy cavalry.

"General! The Liao army made a surprise attack. There are about [-] soldiers and horses. The heavy cavalry from the left and right battalions have been counted and put on saddles. Can we fight?" Lieutenant General Yuan Ai rushed from bottom to top, and the neighing of the horses preparing to fight came one after another. And the Liao soldiers who came from that day had already gathered into a blue-black human wall, and in the camp, a battle flag with a black gold python pattern was erected.And the battle flag corresponding to Dazhao also fluttered in the wind, like thousands of golden dragons hovering in the Nine Heavens.

"Wait for their charge to get closer!" Qi Mo put on the red gold helmet firmly, showing no signs of impetuosity, showing a calmness that is not commensurate with his age.The soul of a new life must be more calm than this body, and the rare style of strategizing and generals has begun to take shape.

"Yes!"

Although he was puzzled to join the army, he still ordered the heavy cavalry to stand still.But at this moment, the feet of the man and the horse were already shaking slightly. Based on this alone, it is not difficult to imagine the thrill of thousands of horses galloping outside the sentry tower.Obviously the enemy army is approaching, if it gets any closer, there is no way to break the formation.However, the heavy cavalry had been defeated three times. Because of the unique formation of the Liao people and the presence of artillerymen behind them, there was no grass growing on the flat land. It really met Qi Mo's expectations before. The stature of the horse!If there is another battle like this, even if there are a large number of people, it will be a battle of near death and no return.Lieutenant General Yuan Ai was about to open his mouth, only to hear that the crown prince had already taken the lead: "Heavy cavalry obey orders!"

"Here!" Thousands of heavy cavalry shouted in unison, loud and deafening.

"The Northern Liao Dynasty attacked our three cities in Dazhao within one year! Today, we are still trying to destroy the northern border of our Dazhao with thousands of horses and thousands of troops! I know that this year, the British generals will be lost, and they will be defeated in three battles! Everyone in the world knows the nature of the Liao people. Fierce, you have repelled countless soldiers, and beat us so badly! But, Gu also knows, how much you have suffered, and how much infamy you have suffered!"

The heavy cavalry was an army that broke the formation, and most of them never came back. Except for the soldiers wearing heavy armor with chains, even the horses were put on bamboo boards, leaving only their eyes, mouth and nose.The army that charged and broke through the formation fought with great momentum, losing three times in a row had long ago put out the fire in the hearts of the soldiers who were defending hard, but they didn't want to see the prince in person just before facing the attack, which aroused the blood in their hearts for a while.

Qi Mo continued to speak loudly: "In today's battle, as a general alone, he will definitely not hide in the watchtower! On the battlefield, as long as there is still a soldier of Dazhao fighting for his life, Gu will never ask him to fight alone! Gu Mo I swear here, if anyone does not return, the city gates will never be closed, and I will never make my Dazhao soldiers lose their chances!"

These words made the soldiers of the heavy cavalry raise their heads high, only to see their general, the current crown prince, quickly draw a silver spear from behind him, pointing the spear at the thief wolf in the north: "In today's battle, the soldiers and the lonely general will be famous!" Leave it in history! The lonely ancestor once won this place from the hands of the Liao people. I think that the ancestors stood here on that day, staring at the north, shouting at the wolf ambitions of the Northern Liao Dynasty, and marched and retreated side by side with the ancestors of the soldiers! Today, it will be It is the turn of Gu and you to continue guarding the border where they have shed blood and sweat! When our descendants ask, someone will tell them happily that it was you and Gu who guarded the territory in the winter of Yuanzhi 22 and regarded death as home! It was you! Yugu, break the battle that the Liao people claim to be invincible, and they are invincible! It is you and Gu who used Erlang's blood to protect the peace of thousands of people in Dazhao! Isn't it!"

"Yes!" The heavy cavalry turned sluggish. After all, no one thought that the prince who was going to fight on behalf of the king could go to the battlefield in person, let alone stand side by side with them, and shouted in an instant.The war horse also seemed to be infected by Erlang's blood, and kept snorting like thunder.

Qi Mo saw that the momentum had risen, so he stopped talking, so as not to slow down the momentum.Standing on the high sentry tower, he could see the shocking heavy cavalry formation of Beiliao.The sound of drums shook the sky, and the battle flag was flying high, but the crown prince kept his troops on hold, as if he was about to defend to the death.

"Crossbow soldiers—go to battle!" The five thousand heavy crossbows that the prince had already arranged were already in place, and everyone's eyes widened, and their hearts couldn't help but feel agitated.Because this heavy crossbow formation has already been used, although the crossbow soldiers can hold off for a while with ammunition, they cannot break through the heavy soldiers of the Liao soldiers.Because these Liao horses are wild by nature, unlike ordinary army horses, they are afraid of bear smoke and red flames, and ink bombs coated with fuel cannot be exploded. .

Except for the lieutenant general, joining the army also became more and more restless, but there was always a vague smile on the corner of the prince's mouth, and his confidence was unquestionable.

"Today! Gu will definitely not tell me Dazhaoerlang to resist the heavy armor of Liao soldiers with my flesh and blood!" Qi Mo shook his body, raised his head and shouted loudly, as if Shura God of War reappeared.These words seem simple, but it is the predicament of the defenders for a year. Countless heavy cavalry have been trampled to pieces by the heavy soldiers of the Northern Liao Army, and their lives have been ruined. .

On the outside of the sentry tower was an army of tens of thousands from the Northern Liao Dynasty. The [-] artillery carts and heavy crossbows on the tower were ready to go. All the crossbowmen could clearly see the Wujin battle flag waved by the Liao soldiers, which looked like a death-defying banner.Only to hear the crown prince yelling in the anxious eyes of everyone: "All generals, listen to the order! Salvo——" The heavy crossbows hit the firing platform one after another in an instant, and the sound of cracking through the air was uniform, and the vibration of the piercing flames shattered the frost that had formed on the sentry tower. The flower shattered instantly.

At this time, the Liao soldiers charged with heavy pawns, thousands of iron hooves and vertical sabers charged directly on the snow field, forcing Dazhao's heavy cavalry to break out of the formation.It's just that this formation is quite vicious, with heavy soldiers first and battle flags behind, even the chariots can't withstand several rounds of crushing by armored Liao horses, and even the people, chariots and horses are all trampled to pieces, as if thrown into the ground. In the knife array.But if you don't want to fight, you can break through the city when the heavy soldiers are too close. At that time, you can charge and form a formation.

Conquering a city is like picking something out of a pocket, and one can only hope that Dazhao's heavy cavalry will break through and come.

Suddenly hearing the sound of breaking through the air, the soldiers of the Liao army shouted: "Up-face-armor!" The soldiers who charged in front pulled down the armor of their helmets one after another, covering their noses and mouths like war horses, Not afraid of fireworks, just occupying the best position at this moment.How can an incendiary bomb explode on the vast snowfield?Several onslaughts can only ignite the bear smoke that chokes people's throats. Tens of thousands of cavalry stepped into the icy water before the sparks ignited. The fire net protecting the city is absolutely impossible!

Just as the heavy soldiers were moving forward courageously, thousands of incendiary bombs exploded in front of them, as if overwhelming black iron stones fell from the sky!The heavy soldiers at the front couldn't dodge and were pierced by projectiles, and the undercurrent of soldiers and horses behind them followed closely behind. The sound of explosions, hisses and bullets mixed into blood rain, and even the faster drums of war could be heard from the sentry tower. Voice!

The change happened in an instant, I saw the front row of cavalry raised their horseshoes high, like boiling water rendering backwards, and the heavy soldiers who were thrown off their horses were crushed by thousands of troops without even seeing what happened, and they went back row by row Fall!

Standing on the top of the sentry tower, Qi Mo saw that the iron cavalry of the Liao soldiers was close at hand. A hoarse shout could be heard faintly from the sound of the horse's hooves, and they were submerged in the vast sea of ​​blood!The intense blood had rushed to the city gate, but the Liao soldiers in the front row were crushed by their own soldiers and horses.

Just because the ink bullets that exploded with a loud bang were already filled with the blood of dead animals, which was particularly dazzling on this white snow field.Qi Mo thought hard for days, if the incendiary bombs could not smash the heavy soldiers in the first row, then they could only rely on the Liao soldiers' own iron cavalry to trample each other.However, the ears of the Liao horses were stuffed with animal hair, and the whistling of incendiary bombs and the beating of drums had no effect on these battle-hardened horses.

The only thing that can identify the direction of the enemy and ourselves is the eyesight!The Liao horses that ran away from Shizhou could not be seen scarlet, let alone these cavalry born in the snow field.The exploding incendiary bomb seemed to cut through a bloody wall, and suddenly the horses slowed down and lost their speed, and even jumped up high, trying to turn around.But the tens of thousands of cavalry behind them didn't know that the horses in front were by nature formidable, so they rushed forward one after another without slowing down at all, and suddenly became chaotic.

"Attack—the city—the gate! The range of the incendiary bomb is too far to defend!" Liao soldiers lost thousands of heavy soldiers in the front line in an instant, all of which were crushed by their own people.The soldiers behind him waved their flags and issued orders, ordering the remaining [-] heavy soldiers to go straight to the city gate.No matter how scarlet the incendiary bomb is, it can't stop the frightened horse, so you can rest easy if you jump within the range.

Qi Mo waved the Golden Dragon Battle Flag at this time, but still did not open the city gate.The bloodline plan has wiped out more than half of the heavy soldiers of the Northern Liao Dynasty, and the enemy's momentum has been greatly reduced. All the soldiers of Dazhao raised their arms and shouted, and they couldn't wait to go out of the city to face the battle. The hatred on their faces was hard to suppress!But the prince still forbears, suppressing the bloody cavalry is only waiting for an opportunity.All of a sudden, Qi Mo waved his flag and shouted, "Come back!"

At this time, Liao Xiaofu, who was in the big tent, was also fidgeting, and kept opening the curtain door of the military tent, so that the cold north could wake him up from his anxiety.

"My lord Zhang, did you hear the sound of the drums stop? Could it be that His Highness is going to fight? If His Highness is going to fight, how can you stop the drums?" Liao Xiaofu looked into the distance in panic, but could only hear horses The neighing continued, and a strong fishy smell permeated everywhere.Although he doesn't understand the art of war, he also knows that the drummer must not stop without permission, even if his hand is broken, it must be His Highness who gave the order.

"Eunuch Liao, I'm begging you for a humble job. If you don't eat or drink like this, the crown prince will punish me when he comes back after winning the battle..." Zhang Guangzhi kept persuading him with a food box behind him.He followed the prince thousands of miles to the north, but on the first day of the kiss, the prince alone asked him to give him the most important task, and he couldn't rest assured that he would entrust it to anyone except him.

Who doesn't want to lead troops out and kill the enemy with their hands?Zhang Guangzhi immediately knelt down to thank him, wishing he could be ashamed.Unexpectedly, the most important task was to stay in the big tent to watch over Eunuch Liao and watch him eat a meal.
