Chapter 477 The sky is falling
When they returned to the city, Sun Yue and the generals hugged each other and laughed loudly, laughing like a lunatic. This time, they had caused a bad chance of Yelu Xiu Ge, and maybe they could have a big victory in one breath.
In addition to the lost three thousand Vorodor, Yelu Xiu Ge actually suffered even greater losses in his time.
Although the Liao Kingdom invaded the south, it was not because it caught the Song Dynasty off guard, but it also hit a time difference. Zhao Guangyi mobilized troops from all over the country to personally fight, so he needed some preparation time. What a treasure for the Liao Kingdom, and they would definitely not be able to enter Waqiaoguan, but it was still fine to continue to expand the results of the battle in the Hebei Land and try to pull out the fortresses made by Sun Yue and the others with cement.
As a result, all these time was delayed. At this time, the main force of the Liao army was divided into two, half led by Yelu Xiuge, and with all the Voroduo, they surrounded Sun Yue here, and the other half was led by his brother to deal with Han Chongyun and Pan Mei.
According to time, when he surrounded Sun Yue, Zhao Guangyi had almost arrived at Waqiao Pass. After being surrounded for so long, he would appear here almost at any time. Regardless of the victory or defeat, the battlefield has begun to shift in a confused manner. A battle that should have been fought in Hebei was originally a battle between Liao and Liao attacking Song defense, but it was a confused battle that became Song attacking Liao defense.
When the Liao army attacks, the cavalry will scatter everywhere and become the target of the Liao army's attack. However, if there are many infantry in the Song army, they will inevitably lose sight of one thing and out of passiveness. However, if this battlefield changes, it will be different. You cavalrymen will go wherever you want to go, and I will only be able to attack strategically important places such as Youzhou.
Thinking of this, Yelu Xiu Ge was almost vomiting blood.
Are you leaving now? Alas, let’s fight. So, after delaying for half a month, the Liao army finally started a formal siege, regardless of casualties. Sun Yue was too busy and threw the task directly on Yang Ye and ignored it. After all, when this guy was defending Jinyang, the entire Song army followed him and scolded him, and in history, Zhao Kuangyin was defeated.
So Yelu Xiu Ge attacked for three days and three nights, and the city of Tanzhou was still as stable as Mount Tai.
Yelu Xiu Ge was panicked, so he continued to fight for his life, and fought for another three days and three nights, and then Sun Yue was panicked because he didn't see any reinforcements at all.
Yelu Xiu Ge has been fighting with him for almost twenty days. According to time, Zhao Guangyi has been to Xiongzhou for at least half a month, but he has never come. How far is it from Xiongan New Area to Miyun? It’s a matter of driving for two hours!
Sun Yue was a little confused and sent Li Jilong to break through to investigate the news of the battle ahead. As a result, Li Jilong came back and said that Zhao Guangyi's army was stopped by Yelu Wa. It only took more than 30 miles in half a month, and the results were not big.
Sun Yue's heart suddenly became cold, and it was cool.
Zhao Guangyi was so stupid that he was carrying the whole country's troops to the north! The two capitals plus one and two hundred thousand soldiers, plus twelve military governors who are good at fighting, the total force reached more than 400,000. He was actually stopped when the main force of the Liao Kingdom was divided into two? Isn't this a joke?
Let’s talk about the river - the north is flat, and there are no mountains and rivers blocking the road from Xiongzhou to Tanzhou, and no big rivers blocking people. Just send a cavalry to bypass it!
Obviously, people just don't want to save them.
With Sun Yue's current ability and status, Zhao Guangyi did not dare to touch him before he established a stable foothold. Even if he had a stable foothold, he would need to be careful when moving such a person. A bad thing about the Later Jin Dynasty is likely to happen again, but what if it was borrowed from Yelu Xiuge?
Sun Yue went deep into the army alone, and made himself a nail and thrust into the heart of the Liao Dynasty. Although he made Brother Yelu Xiu very angry for the time being, this is still the territory of others. If he can't fight for half a month, what about one month? What about two months? It can be said that as long as he has a little more time, he will definitely not be able to beat Brother Yelu Xiu. Not to mention Yang Ye, even Zhang Xun is not able to fight for him.
After a successful victory, he was in a daze and went to a dead end.
"Sun Shuai, what should we do? Otherwise, let's break through."
"Breakthrough? Can the cavalry leave, what should the infantry do? We have all come back to the taste now. Then Brother Yelu Xiu is willing to let us go?"
"Then, what should I do?"
"Let's take a step by step. This matter is strictly confidential. Just a few of us know about it. We must keep it strictly confidential to other soldiers, otherwise the morale of the army must be dispersed. Please invite Yang Ye and Han Chongxun to discuss it. The strategy of defending the city will change, especially military rations. How many days will the military rations be enough for food?"
"Half a month."
"Oh, let's cut it by half. If reinforcements don't come yet, go and scrape it from the people in the city."
"But if the official family doesn't come, what's the use of us staying here?"
"No, the official family's new big treasure has an unstable foothold. He wants to use this personal expedition to purify the army and deal with those who do not obey him. One major premise is to win. If you can't even win, then you can't say that prestige. Our strategic significance is something that individuals can understand. He cannot order not to rescue him. At most, it is to delay. As long as we keep it, he will definitely not be able to withstand the pressure."
"But……"
Sun Yue suddenly slapped the table angrily and said, "But your mother's head! Where did you come from so much nonsense? Why don't you call Yang Ye for me!"
Li Jilong was startled by Sun Yue's throat and hurriedly went there.
Until the person left, he could not see it. Sun Yue drew out his sword and yelled at his large desk and chopped it up, "Zhao Guangyi, I fuck you grandma, don't let me pass this level. If I don't die in the future, I will have you or not!!"
After a while, Yang Ye, Han Chongxun and others arrived. Sun Yue roughly said the matter. Yang Ye was fine, but he bowed his head in depressed manner. However, Han Chongxun directly scolded his mother, regardless of whether it was appropriate or not, and scolded Zhao Guangyi's eighteen generations of ancestors in the sky.
"Okay, stop scolding. No matter how you say it, it's the current official family. I'll just say a few words in my heart. It's not appropriate to scold me. I'll tell you what to do now. Actually, there's nothing to say. It's just three roads, defending to the end, breaking through, surrendering to the Khitan. I suggest defending to the end, where are you?"
Several people looked at each other. What was more gratifying was that no one proposed to give up the infantry breakout, but Yang Ye said: "Paper cannot cover the fire. The soldiers will know sooner or later. I am afraid of this morale... There are more than 3,000 original Liao Han troops in the city, and the people in the city have never received favors from the court. This...ah! But what should I do?"
Sun Yue was silent for a long time and said, "It's better to hide it every day."
