Chapter 328(1/2)

The unsuccessful advance of Yelu Lihu finally reached Jinzhou. Yelu Chache frowned slightly at the news report.

The first letter was the official letter sent by the army to the rear. The content was very simple, that is, Du Chongwei was afraid of the enemy, which led to the unsatisfactory advance of Xiao Jieli. He was besieged by the Tang army in Luanzhou. The regent's troops left Yu Pass and fought with the Tang army in Tangshan. He rescued Xiao Jieli's subordinates. The two sides fought a fierce battle, each with injuries.

According to this battle report, the situation on the front line of Yuguan is unbeatable.

The first letter was accompanied by a memorial from Yelu Wuzhi. The general meaning of the memorial was that the Tang people are ready now, and they may not have the chance of winning if they continue to advance. It is better to stop the army.

When Yelu Lihu got this letter, he felt something was wrong, especially after seeing the letter, he also attached a memorial from Yelu Wuzhi - Yelu Wuzhi is a half-hostage, how could Li Hu let him hand the memorial?

He followed him and heard the second news - there were people who were planted by Yelu Cha in the army ahead, and the second news came from his confidants.

The second news is very bad, very bad, quite bad!

It was not that the army was not smooth, but that it was defeated - and it was very ugly!

According to the news feedback from his confidants, after Yelu Lihu left Yu Pass, he fought with the Tang army head-on, but was beaten to the ground by the Tang army. Du Chongwei was seriously injured, and Xiao Jieli fled in the battle, causing the rear army to be in chaos. Han army troops left the city and half injured and half surrendered, Xiao Jieli's casualties were nearly 20%. The Khitan troops led by Li Hu retreated before they could fight, and all the results of crossing the sea and attacks were lost. Shicheng was lost and Luanzhou was lost. The loss of war horses exceeded 30%. The soldiers and generals who retreated to the pass were panicked and fearful, and their fear of the Tang people was three points deeper than after the defeat of Linhuang Mansion. It is said that Yelu Lihu is still in a state of sometimes furious and sometimes dumbfounded, and Sache is cowardly and unable to manage the affairs. Han Deshu claimed that he would never return for the envoy...

As for the losses of the Tang army in this battle... from the information, it is impossible to tell that no unit of the number was severely damaged, nor did it be heard that any famous general had any losses. In short, from this information, the Khitan was completely defeated in the battle of Tangshan! Not only was it a big defeat on the battlefield, but this defeat also seriously affected the post-war army psychology!

"this……"

Yelu Cha Chuoyuan also expected that Li Hu would not get any benefits when he went there. However, he did not expect that he would be defeated so badly! But from all the signs, the information he fed back from his confidants should be true! Du Chongwei's death and Xiao Jieli's injuries were hard to cover up. The first letter of Yelu Wuzhi's memorial attached to the newspaper further illustrates the problem - now Yelu Wuzhi has probably recovered his limited freedom in Yuguan. There is also the confidant who ran back from the front. When talking about Yuguan's battle, he was still scared!

This is not good!

Li Hu failed, and Chashi was very popular. If Li Hu did not defeat him, how could he control the regent?

But if you lose so badly, it is not what Cha Cho is willing to see. The so-called "skin will not be left with hair"? If the result of the war will really affect the stability and even survival of the entire Liao Kingdom, it is not the original intention of Cha Cho.

Suddenly, Yelu Cha felt a little regretful. Maybe he shouldn't have done so extreme and intensely, maybe he should have compromised with the Southern Sect at the beginning, maybe... Yelu's quality is right...

However, this thought just flashed through. Yelu Chache randomly drove this idea out.

No matter what, the general direction of the situation is still right. No matter how outrageous the defeat in the front line is, as long as Yu Pass is held, there will be no trouble in Liaodong. As for the country, it is now controlled by itself from top to bottom.

In other words, although the current situation is a little out of control, it is still beneficial to oneself.

Thinking of this, Yelu Cha couldn't help but smile again.

Next, his mind changed slightly. He no longer thought about the defeat in Tangshan, but turned back to Liaoyang Prefecture. Judging from the current situation, Yelu House seemed to be a little out of control, and he rushed to submit a memorial. This sign must be stopped!

Yelu Chache thought of seven or eight subsequent responses in his mind, how to hold Yelu Wuzhi, how to hold Yelu Shuogu, how to hold the entire Southern Sect’s counterattack, and how to control Yelu Lihu!

When the external situation stabilizes and as his control over the entire Liaodong becomes deeper, by the years, he will first depose Li Hu, the regent, and personally serve as the Grand Marshal of the World. After a while, he can learn the Chinese and play a good trick of abdicating!

Thinking of this, Yelu Chache couldn't help but chuckled.

At this moment, a subordinate hurriedly rushed in, with a look of panic on his face and shouted, "Not good!"

Yelu Chache looked cold and said angrily: "What's wrong! Bastard!"

He was thinking about abdicating and ascending the throne, but suddenly he was knocked out by a subordinate with a saying "bad" and it felt unlucky!

The person who reported the news knelt down and said with a sad face: "No! Tang army... Tang army has landed!"

Yelu Cha was stunned: "What login? Where to login?"

"Liaojin...The Tang army landed at the mouth of Liaohe River! Liaojin was lost!"

When Yelu Cha's face changed drastically when he heard this, he would suppress the house, control Li Hu, and abdicate and ascend the throne. In an instant, he would be thrown out of the sky!

"What's going on!"

He shouted loudly, his voice extremely shrill!

"The Tang army suddenly launched a large-scale attack on Liaojin. The Han army in Liaojin turned against each other. The Tang army attacked Liaojin. The classmate was unable to break through. Now Liaojin is probably lost!"

Yelu Cha's fat face trembled, and he couldn't speak for a long time! When he asked more, the messenger could not tell more details.

This is the earliest news of arrival, and some details have not arrived yet.

Yelu Chache had no longer cared about the matter in the West. His confidant had a big problem, so how could he care about his brothers and sisters? He hurriedly sent someone to find out the news again.

Until the people sent out set out, he could hardly believe that the news of the fall of Liaojin was true!

But deep down, I felt vaguely until this kind of news could not have been made mistakes.

After all, he can be regarded as a famous general of the Khitan. He thought about the various dynamics of the Tang army during this period and the advantages and disadvantages of the Tang and Liao sides. He thought about the situation of Han Deshu leaving forever, and thought about the surprise attack from Han Deshu when the sea crossed the sea was taken by Han Deshu. A cool air suddenly emerged!

"Did...we were all plotted by Zhang Mai?"

If Liaojin is really lost, what else do you want to fight in the internal struggle? Once the Tang army is allowed to land at the mouth of Liaohekou, the entire Liao Dynasty will be over! The Liao Dynasty is over, who else will he fight with?

On the second day, I heard that not only did Liaojin fall, but the Tang army also rushed north from now on! The general in Liaojin tried to break through the country in his siege, but was burned to death by boiling oil at the north gate!

The general died, the country's national gate was lost, and the enemy army rushed to the capital - this was the beginning of the destruction of the country!

A disaster!

A disaster!

There are nearly one million Han people in the Liaohe River Basin now!

And those Han people who are not well-raised! Once the Tang army leads its troops north, the entire Liaodong will be finished!

What's the point of guarding Yuguan and Jinzhou?

"Master!"

A shout from Zhelai called Yelu Chache back to his senses. At this time, the news had spread and Yelu Chache's generals rushed over.

"Gather the troops!" Yelu Chache shouted, "Hurry up! You have to go and save Liaoyang Prefecture immediately!"

After the Tang army landed, they immediately rushed to advance north. Obviously, the target was Liaoyang Prefecture - Zhang Mai was going to attack Huanglong!

Rescue must be immediately!

We must take advantage of the fact that the Tang army has not yet established a stable foothold, otherwise once the Liaoyang Prefecture falls, it will be completely ruined!

There are still seven or eight thousand infantrymen and more than nine thousand cavalrymen in Jinzhou - the cavalry are all direct descendants of the Northern faction brought by Yelu Chashi. They have strong combat power and are loyal and reliable, so the orders are spread and assembled very quickly.

Liaojin fell too quickly, and many Khitans fled from all directions and spread the news. The Liao Kingdom had no time to prepare for it. Therefore, all kinds of rumors quickly flew throughout Liaodong, and the army gathered, and half of the Jinzhou City knew about this. The whole city of soldiers and people were in a panic, and Yelu Chache did not explain too much, and immediately ordered troops to be sent to Liaoyang Prefecture.

——————————

Yelu Cha led 8,000 cavalry and 4,000 infantry hurried to Liaoyang Prefecture. The cavalry and infantry all rode horses. Not far after passing Jinzhou was the Liaohe Plain, and the black soil was flat. The main attacks developed by Liaodong today were on the Liaohe Plain, and most of the rest were still desolate, either in woods or grasslands, or occasionally in a few pastures.

Not long after walking, I kept hearing the news ahead, and all kinds of information became more and more dangerous and urgent!

The Tang army's actions in the Liaohe River Basin were extremely fast! In just a few days, it was sweeping across the entire Liaohe River Basin!

Yelu Cha was very anxious and led the vanguard. The cavalry walked rapidly and ran more than a hundred miles a day. The rear army was a little unable to keep up. They walked more than 180 miles and the military line was quite long.

On this day, I saw the Awl River (one of the tributaries of the Liaohe River). In summer, the water was abundant and the river surface was wide. The vanguard drove near the dock and started crossing the river. Suddenly, he saw a village by the Awl River before the smoke had not dissipated. Yelu Chache suddenly felt a move in his heart and pointed at: "This Han village seems to be a little bigger than when he came." He said left and right: "It's really..."

Yelu Cha said, "Cross the river slowly!" and he was about to send someone to explore the village.

At this time, hundreds of people had already got off the boat. Yelu Cha's order was passed down. Someone shouted: "Take it!"

The boats and rafts suddenly swayed, the boats were pierced, and the rafts were dispersed! Two or three hundred Khitans fell into the spot! The rest hurriedly came ashore in chaos, but saw more than a hundred soldiers gushing out of the water, killing all the Khitans who fell into the water with the waves! Dozens of extremely fierce ones were like crocodiles, and they pulled back the Khitans who were not far from the water. In a moment, the awl River was dyed red.

A general dressed as a boatman at the pier laughed and said, "After all, he is a famous general on the battlefield. He is so alert, I have never hidden it!" He greeted the river and suddenly a sound of drums sounded on the boat!

The Khitan kept screaming: "There are ambush! There are ambush! There are ambush!"

Someone on the boat shouted: "Although I was seen through, it's a pity that it's too late!"

It turned out that the Tang army occupied Liaojin and the army divided into two groups. Zhao Zan went north, and the other three generals went west with elite cavalry. One of them was ambushed on the banks of the Awl River for a long time. There were few natural dangers to ambush on the road between Jinzhou and Liaoyang, so they lurked in this village on the banks of the Awl River.

The drums on the river were heard, and the war drums in the village responded at the same time. A cavalry rushed out, with only two or three thousand people. The horses were all white horses, all white robes, and the weapons were all silver spears! It turned out to be the white horse silver spear regiment that was famous in the Central Plains!

Yelu Lihu also heard of this corps. But wasn’t the white horse and silver spear guarding Yedu? He actually ran to Liaodong! He was shocked and rushed to fight. After the marching along the way, the army was not all, and he was ambushed again. At this time, there were only more than 2,000 vanguards, and the uncrowded ships in the river kept shooting out bows and arrows, disrupting the team gathered by the Khitan cavalry. The white horse and silver spear regiment came so fast that it quickly inserted into the middle section of the Khitan troops, stabbing the horses and trampling the horses. The people and horses rolled, and the guns were dead!

Among the more than 2,000 people, there were more than 100 horses, with horses covering leather armor, people wearing chain armor, and hundreds of guns moved in one go. He took Yelu Cha to cut! The Khitan cavalry formation was not stable and could not be stopped. The Xi clan's first fierce general, Tsared Ladorkuo, shouted loudly, and stepped forward to block Yelu Lihu. He was overdrawn in the Linhuang Mansion and was seriously injured. He suffered a lot of damage to the battle of Linhuang Mansion. However, the Oolong BMW was dead in the formation and the special steel knife was also lost. After returning to the northeast to recover his injuries, Yelu Lihu found another war horse for him. Although the new mount was good, it was not as good as the Oolong Divine Horse. However, he did not wear heavy armor during this marching, and his speed was not bad.

The white horse and silver spear had broken more than twenty cavalry in a row. They were about to rush to Yelu Cha, and Tsared Ladorkuo suddenly appeared. The new extended steel knife was wielded, but he still encountered someone and killed someone. When he met a horse, three white horse knights died under his knife! After a moment, several people were seriously injured.

Zhaladoukuo laughed and said, "Children of the Tang army, who else dares to die!" He said that, leading his subordinates to rush forward. Relying on his personal courage, he not only blocked the Tang army's offensive, but also had counterattacks on some battlefields! The entire Khitan saw the morale boost. Yelu Lihu shouted, "Everyone counterattack! Stand firmly! Don't be confused! Wait for the follow-up troops to help!"

Zhaladoukuo was about 1.9 meters tall and sat on the tall horse. Everyone on the battlefield was shorter than him. He looked down at everyone, and was as majestic as if the gods had arrived! The Tang army had the upper hand, but at this point the advantage was strangled!

At this time, the horse hooves in the west were making loud noises, but the follow-ups of the Khitan arrived!

Yang Xin, who was ambushing in the dark, was secretly anxious and was about to stand up. A young general in the White Horse Silver Spear Array shouted angrily: "There are also good men in the Han family, how can you, Hu Man, be the leader!"

A sweat-blooded horse rushed out, and its whole body was snow-white, which was a "cloud wings and feathers". An young general was wearing a special bright light armor that was as big as silver pieces, with people under the horse's back, and people and horses in one, rushing into the Khitan formation like a silver thread. It was Gao Huaide, the best general in the white horse and silver spear.

In recent years, with the development of military technology in the Tiance Tang Dynasty, the importance of personal bravery is declining in the army. When Zhang Mai inspected the troops in various places, he repeatedly lamented that this era may be the last stage for cold weapons and brave generals. Despite this, those famous generals are still highly admired by generals and soldiers. Gao Huaide was young and arrogant, and he was determined to seize the reputation of "gun king" in the Tiance Tang army. In recent years, he practiced formation and gun skills. In addition, he grew older and had lost all his childishness over the years. He was no longer as immature as a youth. His physical strength and mind were mature, and he had grown into a young general.

At this time, he rushed into the Khitan formation, and a rotten silver spear unfolded the "torna whirlwind breaking the way". Wherever he went, the horse was blind and the man fell into his saddle, like a god or a demon, and the Hu Piyi! The dozens of white horses and cavalry cavalry cavalry shouted and followed him, but Gao Huaide had just challenged him, but he didn't really enter the field, but he was not straightforward to pull Ladorkuo. He interspersed back and forth in the Hu formation, and the Khitan formation, which was just about to revive the formation, was scattered again.

Zhaladoukuo roared: "Han's child! Come here!"

Gao Huaide chuckled and approached Zhaladukau, and flew through the slant. He shot through the throat of a Khitan cavalry on the left side of Zhaladukau, dragging him down. He openly killed his comrades under Zhaladukau's nose. He suddenly came and went, and another chuckled, and the laughter was full of contempt and mockery!

Tsartoku was furious and rushed forward regardless of everything. The war horse escaped from the guards of his comrades. Gao Huaide screamed in surprise, and slapped the long spear and ran away. Tsartoku's big sword danced and rushed forward several steps. He saw that Gao Huaide had slashed down with a knife. At that moment, Yunyi Fengyu, who was already running rapidly, accelerated again in an instant, causing Tsartoku's knife to fall suddenly. The drooping silver spear suddenly bounced up like a snake, and one shot pierced through Tsartoku's collarbone!

Yang Xin, who was ambushing in secret, couldn't help but shout: "It's good to get back on the attack!"

Tseratougo screamed violently, while Gao Huaide shouted loudly at the same time. The two generals and horses used force together. Yunyi Fengyu accelerated again in an impossible situation. Tseratougo's war horse was not enough. If the mist was still there, Gao Huaide would not be able to rely on the horse. If he had heavy armor on his body, it would be difficult to grasp his shoulders. However, at this time, Tseratougo, who was suffering from shoulders, was thrown into the air by Gao Huaide's horse with his horse!

Amid the screams of thousands of people, five silver spears were stabbed out at the same time, piercing five holes in the air! The giant-like body was still struggling on the gun rod. Blood kept sprinkling like raindrops!

Zhala Duoku is now the courage of the Khitan army. He ended up in such a terrible ending. All the Khitan soldiers on the battlefield were frightened when they saw this scene!
To be continued...
