Li Yanxian almost wanted to yell, and the enemy started to use artillery.

The amount of gunpowder is currently limited, and Gaochang's fire salt has just begun to be mined. At present, the Song Dynasty is using troops from all directions, and the battle line is unprecedentedly long.

Whether it is Hebei, Hedong or Liaodong, or Xingzhou, or Japan, or the South China Sea, they are all equipped with firearms.

On average in this way, the gunpowder in each military town does not appear to be so much.

However, some members of the Song army have obviously become dependent on firearms.

And the battle situation at this time also has a very high test of the coach's ability.

Ge Luolu's thousands of cavalry were obviously just a foreplay.

Just put gunpowder on the foreplay, what about after the main force of the enemy comes?

"Shao Long!"

"The end is here!"

"The commander-in-chief will give you three thousand iron hooves. You wait for the opportunity to let these Ge Luolu people experience the power of my great Song iron hooves!"

"Order!"

There were bursts of screams ahead, and Pei Daqian's cavalry roared towards him, like a scimitar on the grassland, piercing the Song Army's flank.

As they approached quickly, the Ge Luolu people all began to bend their bows and shoot arrows. A dense rain of arrows rushed towards the Song Army's formation, making a tinkling sound.

The Song army fought back with crossbow arrows, and the Ge Luolu people immediately turned around and began to retreat, and finally gathered 200 meters away, and began to adjust their formation, preparing for the second attack.

After going back and forth like this five times, the Ge Luolu people found that this kind of harassment could not deter the Song army in a short time.

So they prepared to retreat a certain distance and confront the Song army.

When cavalry meets infantry, they generally adopt attrition tactics.

Because infantry must wear armor to deal with cavalry, and must also hold heavy weapons.

At this time, the infantry standing on the ground was obviously more physically exhausted.

A normal person will get tired after standing for half an hour, and a strong person can stand for two hours, but it may take more than an hour to get tired after wearing armor.

"Report! Khan, a few miles to the southwest, there is a Song army cavalry!"

Pei Daqian's eyes jumped over, and he could vaguely see some vague outlines, he immediately became vigilant and stopped charging.

Yelu Dashi asked him to lure Song Jun, not to kill him.

"Retreat." Pei Daqian turned his horse's head and retreated along the way that people came and went.

"Li Shuai, the enemy has retreated."

"Don't chase!" Li Yanxian said.

Shao Long was ready to pursue, but after receiving the order not to pursue, he felt very upset, but the military order was difficult to disobey.

"Report! Your Majesty, Pei Dagan has withdrawn from the battlefield." The scout sent the information ahead to Yelu Dashi, "Pei Dagan said that the Song Army's defense was meticulous, and there were cavalry ambushing them. Simple harassment cannot shake the Song Army."

"The Song army didn't pursue?"

"Song Jun stands by!"

Yelu Dashi said, "Who is the commander-in-chief of the Song army?"

"It's Li Yanxian, the envoy of Beiting Jinglue, and Ye Mili who led the raid!"

"Unexpectedly, apart from Yue Fei, Song Jun has such a capable person. It seems that the changes in Song State in these years have exceeded my expectations."

If only Yue Fei was capable, Yelu Dashi would think that there were capable people in the Song court to promote a handsome talent like Yue Fei.

But now there are several coaches with outstanding abilities, and it's not just as simple as having capable people in Song Tingzhong to promote talents.

Instead, Song Ting has a system that can select outstanding talents. An excellent coach can better exert the potential of the army under an excellent military system.

Regarding these, Yelu Dashi knew very well in his heart.

Thinking about how good Song Jun was back then, he had also learned from Yelu Dashi.

During the reign of Xuanhe, when Song and Jin jointly attacked Liao, Tong Guan's commander of [-] troops planned to take the opportunity to attack Youzhou, but Yelu Dashi led [-] Liao troops and rubbed them back and forth on the ground.

"No wonder the Jin people didn't take advantage of the Song army." Yelu Dashi frowned and thought.

Erbusi said, "Your Majesty, it's not too late to agree to Song Jun's conditions."

"No, I agree now. It won't be long before there will be voices attacking us again in the Song court. The Song people have just occupied Gaochang, and they must be immigrating to the Western Regions. If you act weak, the other party will make progress. What I want is not temporary. truce."

Although Yelu Dashi looked gloomy, his eyes were very bright.

He knew that his time was running out, and he just wanted to let Da Song hit a wall in the Western Regions in his lifetime and buy time for future generations.

"That Li Yanxian is extremely difficult to deal with, and I'm afraid it's impossible to lure him." Erbusi said, "Yue Fei should have arrived at Husi Ordu City by now. According to the power of the Song Army's firearms, our time is running out .”

On the sixth day of August, just after dawn, Li Yanxian was inspecting troops and horses, when suddenly an emergency report came from the scouts: "Shuai Li! Shuai Li! A large number of enemy troops have been found in the west! They are approaching our army!"

Li Yanxian was slightly startled, and asked, "How many soldiers?"

"I can't find out yet!"

Next, scouts were sent out continuously.

At this time, Yue Fei's department had already built five heavy artillery pieces outside the city.

"Yue Shuai, the Liao army has been occupying the city, no matter how much we shout and scold."

Yue Fei's face turned serious: "Have you found the whereabouts of the Liao army around?"

"I found some traces of cavalry, and the largest number was less than 3000."

Yue Fei was slightly taken aback, and said, "Could it be that Yelu Dashi arranged all the main force to the north!"

In just half an hour, Li Yanxian received dozens of messages.

From the initial [-] enemy troops, to [-] enemy troops, and now, it has increased to [-] enemy troops.

One is more urgent than one, and one is more dignified than one.

With an army of one hundred thousand, it is actually not difficult to spy on the grassland.

It is estimated that it is impossible to get the exact number, but professional scouts can judge roughly through eye observation, enemy marching traces, enemy flags, etc.

The intelligence obtained so far has obviously exceeded Li Yanxian's expectations.

"It seems that Yelu Dashi has really transferred the main force to the north." Li Yanxian smiled wryly, then quickly regained his solemn expression, and shouted loudly, "The whole army is assembled, ready to fight!"

The horn sounded, echoing at the foot of the empty Tianshan Mountains.

Not long after, the forward of the Liao army went first, and a large number of cavalry troops crossed the river, splashing water, and the iron hooves were like rain.

Looking around, there are huge crowds of people, and there is no end in sight.

The black banner is like a cloud in the sky, trying to hide the sun.

The iron armor is like the sea, and as the Liao army moves, layers of metal waves flow out.

Li Yanxian, who was standing on the handsome platform, already felt the oppression of the Liao army.

Yet he seemed composed.

Li Yanxian has been on the battlefield for a long time in his life, and since the confrontation with the Jin army, he has put his personal life and death aside.

He dared to bring a few people into Wang Yi's camp, beheaded the general manager in public, and then gave Li Liangfu an unexpected surprise.

What else could scare him?

Chapter 1368 Iron Blood Burning (Third)

The leader of the Liao Army's Left Cavalry Corps was Erbusi, who was 1.9 meters tall, strong and powerful, just like a bear.

I saw that he was covered with iron armor all over his body, and even his war horse was also covered with iron armor.

The army on the left has [-] cavalry, including [-] heavy cavalry and [-] medium cavalry.

The army on the right has [-] cavalry, and the commander is Yelu Yanshan, all of whom are medium-sized cavalry, similar to kidnapped horses.

There were [-] infantry, and the rest were also cavalry.

The [-] infantry are all armored and sharp, and the military capacity is at its peak.

The population of Xiliao under the rule of Yelu Dashi was not large.

But because they are basically nomadic, all the people can be soldiers.

Last year, Yelu Dashi marched westward to face the Seljuk coalition forces, and even brought only [-] elite troops.

But this year, facing the Song army at this time, Yelu Dashi directly played all his cards.

This may also have something to do with the surrender of the West Black Khanate after defeating the Seljuks.

Sanjar was defeated and withdrew from the Amu Darya River. The Turks and Uyghurs of the West Black Khanate were all incorporated by Yelu Dashi, and the Ge Luolu people did not dare to have any dissent.

Li Yanxian stepped off the platform, mounted his horse, and led the guards all the way to the front of the soldiers of the three armies.

He drew his sword, ran in front of the three armies and shouted: "Long live the Song Dynasty! Fight the enemy to the end!"

Although his voice was drowned in the sound of the horn, the soldiers could feel the pride erupting from this great commander.

The Song Army's army formation has been formed, the main infantry is placed in the center, and the two wings are cavalry, and heavy cavalry are also prepared.

Soon the battle drums from both sides sounded one after another, and the thunderous drumbeats made the air tremble as if they reverberated around.

After a while, the cavalry on the two wings of the Liao Army took the lead.

The middle-sized cavalry on the left came out first, advancing forward with a strong posture, and pieces of grass rolled up on the ground, dancing wildly in the autumn wind.

The distance was rapidly closing, and Song Jun could already feel the vibration of the ground on the right side.

The sound of shouting and killing filled the whole world, and the minds of the soldiers went blank.

As the distance got closer, Song Jun's artillery was dispatched.

Boom boom boom...

After deafening explosions, blue smoke drifted in the wind, and pieces of iron beads hit the front of the Liao army like a torrential rain.

The cavalry of the Liao army rushing to the front collapsed quickly.

However, for the Liao army with five thousand cavalry charging at the same time, it was like throwing a stone into a huge lake, which could not shake the lake.

The Liao army took advantage of the number of people, stretched the charge line, and expanded the impact surface, like rows of huge waves.

The sound of shouting and killing was overwhelming.

Song Jun's right cavalry was dispatched, and the heavy cavalry of the Tianwu Legion was at the forefront.

Holding spears, they walked slowly from the very beginning, to speeding up, to running wildly, like a mass of hot magma erupting from a volcano, roaring and roaring.

The cavalry of the two sides collided quickly, and the heavy armored cavalry of the Song army pierced the cheese like a steel fork, instantly piercing through the torrent of the cavalry of the Liao army, piercing directly, dripping with blood.

When the war horse collided with the golden dagger, countless people fell off the horse.

Iron and blood began to burn.

Song Jun showed an extremely heroic side. They were not afraid of life and death, and they went forward bravely.

The Liao army also showed strong combat effectiveness, and even if it was temporarily suppressed by the heavy armored cavalry of the Song army, it was never chaotic.

Once, the eighteen tribes of Mobei supported Yelu Dashi in Kedun City, and followed him all the way westward, trekking through mountains and rivers, overcoming thorns and thorns.

Later, the Khitans and Turks from the Western Regions joined in, and together with Yelu Dashi, they fought invincible hands all over the Western Regions.

The Song army made great achievements in battle, and the Liao army was invincible.

A strong army meets a strong army.

This is the stage for the brave, the stage for men.

While the Song Army rushed into the Liao Army's formation, the attack lines of the Liao Army's two wings had already outflanked, and began to attack the Song Army's flanks, launching a sharp strangulation on the Song Army's flanks.

In this kind of strangulation, the minced meat and blood are like waves.

After countless people fell off their horses, they were trampled into balls of meat by iron hooves.

Subsequently, five thousand heavy cavalry on the left side of the Liao army joined the battlefield!

They were a large black mass, galloping across the ground, and quickly cut into the Song army's flank from the side.

Looking down from a high altitude, [-] cavalrymen of the Liao army have already surrounded the right side of the Song army by virtue of their superior numbers.

The reason why a strong army is a strong army is not just because of its strong equipment.
