No shortage of walls

In the north of Nangong Town, we saw that Jizhou City's defense was gradually weakening, and soldiers were gradually able to climb up the city wall. I was overjoyed when I heard the reward. But it is also very strange. The Song people captured Jizhou City so quickly, so their combat effectiveness should not be that weak. Why did the Song army become weak in less than half an hour?

Next to him, the deputy general Gao Sheng cupped his hands and said:"The last general is probably the Song thieves who have occupied Jizhou for a short period of time. They are busy clearing out the loyal people of our country in the city. There is not enough time, and the big rocks and rolling wood have been used up. Now even the big arrows are gradually gone. Now There were only two big arrows shot out, which is probably due to lack of time and lack of preparation. Secondly, even if there are 40,000 people, not all of them should be in the city. If Jizhou City has 40,000 more soldiers, it will be full."

Nangong Zhenbei said:"You Although the words are reasonable, I still feel strange. If the Song army is weak after attacking for a day or two, it will not be surprising. But from the beginning to now, it has not been an hour. How can the Song army be so unbearable that they can capture Qingzhou Pass and then seize the capital? State capital?"

Deputy General Gao Sheng also felt strange. Said:"This is weird, but what is weird, the general can't tell."

Nangong Zhenbei said:"General, I will give him a try. Send the order to attack quickly and see how the Song army does."

Another round of rush attack, suddenly Big rocks and rolling trees tumbled down the city wall. The thick-armed wooden arrows made a loud sound as they shot through the air, and they were all fired at once.

There is news from the front. Nangong Zhenbei cursed angrily:"His grandmother's surname is Chang Guisun. It turns out that she led me to attack by force."……"Speaking of this, I suddenly felt like the earth was shaking. He exclaimed:"No! It turns out that the cavalry came out of the city, and it came from the south. Such a big shock, no more than 10,000 or 20,000 cavalry; send the order, retreat quickly!"

But at this time, it seemed a bit late.

It is not too late for the soldiers who are not yet dispatched, but it is too late for the soldiers who are climbing the ladder or preparing to climb the ladder. As the commander-in-chief of Nangong Zhenbei, he could not leave the soldiers attacking the city alone, so he could only urgently order the rear troops to mount their horses and fight, and at the same time send orders to retreat.

It's just that when we are attacking the city, is it so easy to retreat?

A violent shout was heard:"Don't leave the Liao thieves, I'll kill Grandpa Chang with a knife!" Suddenly, screams were heard, and the shouts of killing were loud.

The Liao people were attacking the city, but no one expected that the Song army dared to come out and came along the base of the city wall, causing chaos.

Liu Jingyun watched from the city wall as Chief Shi jumped off his horse, rushed into the opponent with a long knife and slashed at many places, mowing down a large area with one blow. I was amazed in my heart. I didn't expect this black guy to be so powerful. The emergency department opened the city gate and rushed out.

With more than 70,000 people, they were surprised and unprepared for the attack. The Liao army was in chaos and trampled on each other, countless numbers of them. As for those in the ladder, there were enemies above and below, so it was difficult.

The two sides fought in melee for an hour, and the one who ran had already escaped. Those who did not run lay down, and some who were injured but did not die were cut off by the Song army without leaving any survivors.

Surrender without killing is just a word!

Chang Sheng and Liu Ying led their Qingqi in front of the city gate to prevent Liao reinforcements from arriving.

Liu Jingyun ordered people to light a fire and clean the battlefield all night long and bury the corpses. All the Liao people's weapons, live war horses, ladders, whatever could be moved were moved into the city, and the bodies were hastily buried. The dead horses were buried together with the Liao people. Those who died in the Song army were all moved to the city. After they were cleaned up, they were all buried in the west of the city.

Everyone was busy until the end of the morning before they returned to the city, closed the door, and buried the pot to make rice.

A rough calculation shows that the Liao people lost more than 25,000 people. The Song army lost less than 4,000 men and won a complete victory. They collected more than 10,000 horses, grain-carrying carriages, etc. Anyway, not even a single horse was left for the Liao people. They were all piled up in Jizhou City.

After returning to the city, he ordered the soldiers who were originally guarding the city to bury the brothers properly.

There were too many soldiers in Jizhou City, so Liu Ying led his troops to withdraw from the west of the city.

Liu Jingyun ordered the horses to be collected and kept as war horses. The injured ones were all rushed back to Dingzhou. Those who could be cured at that time could be sold to the people to be converted into civilian horses. Those who were really unable to work could be raised to have ponies. , if it really doesn’t work, the only option is to take care of yourself until you die of old age.

The Song Dynasty had been bullied by its neighbors for hundreds of thousands of years and was in desperate need of war horses. Therefore, there is a law that eating a war horse is a capital offense. Even if the war horse dies, it can only be buried.

But civilian horses can be eaten, but they must be raised by the common people to pull carts and plow the fields, and have never been in the army. Moreover, it can only be eaten after the death report has been confirmed by the official, which is a troublesome procedure, and no one eats horse meat.

It's just that for the first time in the history of Song Dynasty, a foreign country robbed it. I didn't know how to deal with it, so I had to rush back to Dingzhou and let the government report the Holy Judgment.

Any broken weapons will be sent to the workshop.

Among the three armies, only the victorious army has precious swords. It's not that the emperor doesn't criticize Liu Jingyun and Liu Ying, it's because the productivity of the workshop is not enough.

The workshop has not been fully built yet, and it is the emperor's new skill, and the master craftsman does not know how many times the Ministry of National Security will have to check it before he dares to use it.

One word! slow!

The weapons of the Song army were broken and replaced with those of the Liao people. All the carriages were used if they could be used, and those that were not used were used as firewood. Along with the military flag of the Liao State, the Song people wore arrows on them and hung them with ropes outside the city wall. Thinking it was an insult to the Liao people, the Song army also stood on the city wall and urinated on the Liao Army flag.

Chang Sheng asked the injured Liao army and found out that the opponent's general was Nangong Zhenbei, but he escaped. He was so angry that his steel teeth almost broke.

When he said in front of His Majesty the Emperor that he would kill Song Ru, who was in front of him, it was Song Ru who was tied up and brought here. After a lot of effort, the person who was ranked below him ran away again, and his face turned black with anger.

After the Song army won this great victory, the morale of the soldiers rose sharply. They all shouted slogans to break through the Liao Imperial City, rush into the Liao Palace, and kill all the Liao Emperor's royal family in order to avenge themselves.

The Song Dynasty is no longer the Song Dynasty of the past. In the past, it was only forced to defend and fight back. The soldiers fought to the death, just for the security of the country. It has never won as much as it does today. Under the clever command of His Majesty the Orthodox Emperor, who was wise and powerful, at this time, it was not enough to lose 4,000 men and horses, but he killed 25,000 of the opponent's horsemen. He also occupied his big city, which was filled with people. All the provisions, military supplies, horses, carriages, etc. brought by the 40,000-man army. Anyway, no one who could use or burn firewood was left for the Liao dogs. The faces of the Song army were red, their eyes were shining, their faces were full of piety, they shouted slogans wildly, and they captured Liao in a day or two. The momentum of the palace.

Emperor Liao heard that more than 25,000 men had been lost, and there were not so many horses, weapons, and food. I heard that the Song army seemed to number one hundred thousand, and they were hiding east of Qingzhou Pass and west of Jizhou. They were so frightened that their faces turned pale and they were speechless for a long time. The civil and military officials in the court were at a loss. At this time, I don’t know what to do.

The only solution now is to stick to it, and on the one hand, we can only ask the Yue Kingdom for help.

The Song army killed 25,000 Liao people. Even if they have an army of 160,000, they have already fought more than 30,000 since they came out of Qingzhou. Their losses are not big. As long as the imperial decree arrives, all the Liao Kingdom will be Song Dynasty.

The commander-in-chief of the Song Army announced the losses and results of the Song and Liao troops, and the soldiers screamed wildly. So what if there are 160,000 Liao dogs? More than 50,000 Liao dogs have been defeated. Under the command of His Majesty the Orthodox Emperor, who is wise and powerful, he will surely be able to defeat the Liao Palace in one fell swoop. As long as there are no more thirty-five thousand veterans of the Liao Dogs, the Liao Lord Dog Emperor will kill everyone, and the morale of the army will be the same for a while.
