The Song defenders and the cavalry who came to help suffered tens of thousands of casualties, while the Liao people also lost 20,000 people in this Wangyun Pass, and the terrain of the city made it impossible for them to exert the power of the cavalry to the extreme.Uchihar, a veteran who has followed Yelu Chuqi for decades, already feels that the general trend has gone at this time.His fears came true.Most of Yelu Chuqi's army was about to be besieged and annihilated by the Song army under the city of Zhending.At first, the battle under the city of Wangyun Pass was still evenly fought, and after the military horses led by Wuchi Ha'er entered the city, they also had the upper hand.The Song army on the city wall was almost scattered, and the Song army in the city and the untrained people did not pose much of a threat to the Uchihar.They will be able to turn the tide of the battle in no time and completely control Wangyun Pass.However, 100,000 reinforcements led by Wei Chiyuan arrived.The Liao cavalry who fought with Guo Ziliang and others under the city saw the mighty Song border army arrive, and they had no heart to fight again, and at first only a small group of cavalry wanted to escape, and finally most of the Liao cavalry began to retreat, and then was annihilated by the Song army led by Wei Chiyuan.The morale of the Song army, who saw the army coming to help on the city wall, rose sharply, but in comparison, the Liao people who fought on the city wall were in chaos.One trades off the other.The Liao State has no advantage on the city wall, and more Liao people want to hurry down the city wall, quickly find a good horse, and run for their lives.Han Han led the Song army to take advantage of this opportunity to recapture the lost city wall and kill thousands of Liao soldiers.After solving the Liao army under the city and on the city wall, only the Wuchi Ha'er who was still raging in the city remained.After the news that the Anning border army came to help, and the outside of the city had been controlled, Wu Chi Ha'er immediately made a decision, and all the sergeants rushed out of the city, only when they went out of the city, could they let go of the battle with Wei Chiyuan, even if they wanted to retreat, there were more opportunities outside the city than inside the city.But Wei Chiyuan had already made arrangements, and thousands of people were arranged on the main road to the city gate.Horse-repellent piles filled the entire road to block the onslaught of the Liao cavalry.Thousands of Song troops raised their muskets, or bows and arrows, and began to attack as soon as they saw the figure of the Liao cavalry.Tens of thousands of border soldiers were advancing slowly.The Liao cavalry could not attack, and was slowly squeezed into a small area of the city by the Song army.The horses were close to the horses, crowded and crowded, even if they wanted to shoot arrows to fight back, the panic in their hearts and the consumption of physical strength made them unable to do it at all.The Wuchi Har, who was crowded in the crowd, kept issuing orders, allowing the Liao cavalry to charge at all costs.But at this time, the Liao sergeant just saw what happened to the charging cavalry, and ignored his orders, even if some of the men and horses of the headquarters wanted to carry out the orders of Wu Chi Ha'er, they were unable to complete the charge because of the crowding.A rain of arrows shot towards the Liao cavalry.The Liao cavalry fell off their horses without any resistance.A large part of these Liao cavalry participated in the battle to annihilate Jiang Jinxian, and the helplessness and panic of the Song army also arose in their hearts at that time."
Surrender!
We surrender. ”The outermost Liao people were the first to throw their scimitars to the ground, wanting to exchange their lives for their lives.In the center, Wu Chi Ha'er saw the Liao army on the periphery throw their scimitars on the ground, and closed their eyes in resignation.Wangyun Pass couldn't hold it, and the only retreat route for the Liao army was blocked.He originally intended to be loyal to Yelu Chuqi, but at this time, the Song army had absolute geographical superiority and military superiority, and even if he wanted to do anything, he couldn't do it.But the Liao army rushed here, even if the Song army surrendered, how could it accept it.It was as if he had seen the fate of his tens of thousands of cavalry.There were many people in the border army who could understand the language of the Liao people.Knowing that the Liao State was going to surrender, he temporarily stopped the attack and passed this information to Wei Chiyuan in the rear.Wei Chiyuan rode a horse, and behind him were several generals."
What do you say?"
Yu Chiyuan said softly."
It seems that the war is not over yet, there are still hundreds of thousands of Liao cavalry under Zhending City, and we should reserve all our support for Zhending, so we should kill all these Liao people."
Guo Ziliang took the lead in expressing his position.Luo Zhiyuan also said: "Every time the people of Liao enter the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, they all burn the houses of our people, trample on farmland, plunder property, and kill our people. ”"The general gives the order."
An adjutant general also followed.For other strategic deployments, the generals have many different opinions, but the generals are surprisingly unanimous in the life and death of these Liao soldiers.After listening to the opinions of the generals.Wei Chiyuan ordered that the Song army advance gradually and kill all the Liao soldiers, as long as they are still standing, leaving no one alive......
Under the orders of Yu Chi Yuan.A new offensive of the Song soldiers began.The muskets kept firing, and the arrows kept falling.The Liao people had no power to fight back and kept falling.Blood flowed from their bodies, and the Liao people who did not die were still moaning in pain, and then the Song army infantry continued to advance with the pillar of rejection of horses, and when they encountered the Liao soldiers who did not breathe, they decisively gave them a knife in the neck to end the pain for them.The surviving Liao people all abandoned their horses and rushed towards the deepest part of the crowd, as if the deepest part was their chance to live, and some Liao people were inspired to be fierce before they died, and they drove the war horse to launch the last charge of their lives......
Half a day later, the Song army at both ends of the street stepped on the corpses of the Liao army and got closer and closer to the core area of the Liao army.There were only a few hundred cavalry left around Uchihar.He held a scimitar and looked at the Song army on both sides with burning eyes.Then he shouted, "For Your Majesty." ”After finishing speaking, he rushed towards the Song army in the first place.Then fell in a rain of arrows.Han Han, who was squatting on the side of the city wall, gasped, and couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief when he saw that the situation had been decided.At this time, Yan Yunfeng also walked slowly to the city wall."
Where's Lord Han?"
Yan Yunfeng asked the soldiers of the Song Army everywhere, wanting to find Han Han's whereabouts.However, many Song soldiers were already exhausted after a bloody battle, plus Yan Yunfeng was wearing armor, his hair was messy, and there was blood on his face, no one recognized his identity, and no one paid attention to him, just resting on his own."
Lord Yan, I, I'm here."
Han Han raised his arm and shouted weakly.After Yan Yunfeng heard the voice, he finally found Han Han in the crowd, Yan Yunfeng hurriedly stepped forward, and was also relieved to see that Han Han was fine."
General Han, General Wei Chi and others are all in the city, they are ready to rush to the aid of Zhending, let General Han quickly order up the men and horses, see how many people we have left, and they can make arrangements."
Yan Yunfeng hurriedly said.After hearing this, Han Han wanted to stand up, but he didn't have any strength in his body, so he couldn't stand up.The two soldiers beside him hurriedly stepped forward to help."
It's almost over, there are still eight or nine thousand people left in our department, you go and report to General Wei Chi."
Tens of thousands of casualties, most of the cost in exchange for the death of the 20,000 Liao troops who remained here.Of course, this is also the timely support of Wei Chiyuan, Guo Ziliang and others, otherwise the Song army in Wangyun Pass will not have a second ending except for the annihilation of the whole army. ”Okay, General Han, you rest for a while, and I'll go tell Lord Wei Chi."
Lord Yan is wearing armor, and he looks a little more heroic than before.Han Han looked at his back and couldn't help but laugh."
It's good to know, who said that a scholar can't kill the enemy?"
Yan Yunfeng said with a smile.Han Han solemnly arched his hand towards Yan Yunfeng, this civil official likes it, he is a real man.When Yan Yunfeng saw it, he also put away his smile and bowed to Han Han to return the salute.This was originally a touching picture of the military generals of Wenchen, but it was broken by Han Han's words: "You literati are really not a good thing, and the one who came to Wen Crepe at this time seems to be still powerful, which shows that you haven't tried your best in front." ”After listening to Han Han's words, Yan Yunfeng was annoyed again, and wanted to throw off his sleeves and leave, but found that he was wearing armor, and no sleeves were exposed, and after a pause for a while, he suddenly chuckled.And with Yan Yunfeng's laughter, Han Han also laughed.They survived, and Wangyun Pass was still in their hands.So, they won, and no one broke their word.When Yan Yunfeng reported Han Han's statistics to Wei Chigong, Wei Chigong began his encirclement deployment.The scouts were sent to investigate the situation in Zhending first, and then messengers were sent to contact the defenders of several other important military towns, so that they could raise their spirits and do a good job of blocking the fleeing Liao army.Then he left 10,000 foot soldiers in Wangyun Pass and handed them over to a general to command.The remaining 100,000 troops will rest on the spot, cook late at night, and set off tomorrow morning to help Zhending.There were two outcomes in the next battle, one was a tough battle, a decisive battle under the city of Zhending, and the other was to encircle the Liao army that was defeated from the city of Zhending, no matter which kind of process, it was beneficial to the Song army.As for the situation in Wangyun Pass, Yelu Chuqi did not know that the Liao people who fled in the defeat of Wangyun Pass were afraid of being punished by Yelu Chuqi, so they did not flee in the direction of Zhending, but desperately fled in the direction of Liao, wanting to get a way out.However, although this journey was not very long, the Song army on the road would not watch them leave, and only a few people could run back to Liao alive.Jeruchuzi was in the tent, surrounded by the leaders of the tribes.The defeat in the first battle made it clear to these leaders that they would not be able to take it.They wanted Jeroduche to withdraw.It's too late to retreat now, otherwise Wangyun Pass will be taken by the Song army again, and there will be a blockade in front and a chasing soldier in the back, and then all the warriors will be buried in this ghost place.The leaders had the intention of retreating, but Yelu Chuqi was still unwilling to give up this golden opportunity, he gave orders to his subordinates, let him arrest all these tribal leaders, and then put out the camp tent and behead all of them, hung their heads on the banner, and informed the whole army, the leaders of the tribes were all beheaded for disturbing the morale of the army.This caused the discontent of many tribal soldiers, and under the suppression of the soldiers of the Liao army headquarters, with the death of hundreds of people, this discontent was also suppressed.But the morale of the troops has been dispersed.
