In the Jianshan area on the banks of the Yu River, Yelu Nerugu led his army to arrive here first, at this time the heavy snow was still fluttering, the snowflakes on the ground had reached the ankles, the weather was very cold, this kind of weather was a great survival test for both infantry and cavalry, not to mention fighting in such weather conditions, if people stayed in the snow for a long time, it would not be long before they would be frozen. \ In order to keep the soldiers warm, Yelu Nerugu brought the 30,000 soldiers to a cave, this is a naturally formed cave, the cave is large enough to accommodate more than 100,000 people, this cave is very many years ago Yelu Nerugu accidentally discovered, the entrance of the cave is very small and hidden, with a cave such a sheltered place, regenerate a few fires, in this ice and snow can be said to be extremely comfortable.
After settling the army, Yelu Nerugu led dozens of cavalry to go out to investigate, for Yelu Nerugu this is an ambush battle that must be won, and due to the weather, the battle time should not be too long, the longer it will be back to the Northern Liao army, the more unfavorable it will be, and Yelu Nerugu should also consider reducing his own casualties as much as possible, try to avoid contact battles, and combine the above conditions Yelu Nerugu must choose an excellent position that is very beneficial to himself.
Soon after, Yelu Nerugu came to a place with dozens of cavalry, looked at the towering peaks on both sides, and said excitedly: "What a good place to put it, the road of heaven and earth."
On the other side, Yelu Hongji was slowly leading the army to rush here, and the heavy snow seriously hindered the marching speed of the army, Yelu Yixin quickly came to Yelu Hongji and said: "Your Majesty, let the army rest for a while" Yeluhongji looked into the distance and said, "After the herald army has crossed the valley ahead, find a leeward place and set up camp. ” "Yes, follow Your Majesty's orders."
Yelu Yixin took the military order.
In the biting cold wind, the soldiers of the Northern Liao Army slowly advanced with heavy steps, and just as they were about to enter the valley, Yelu Hongji suddenly ordered with his right hand in the depths: "Order, the whole army stops advancing." ” "Your Majesty, what's wrong?"
asked Yeluren first.
Yelu Hongji said to the general: "I don't know why I have a sense of foreboding. ” "Your Majesty, you are worried that there is an ambush in this valley."
Yeluren asked Yeluhongji first.
Yelu Hongji glanced at Yelu Renxian and did not speak, and Yelu Renxian immediately ordered the soldiers beside him: "Order the scout team, probe." ” More than a dozen scouts immediately broke away from the large army and entered the valley first, and a few scouts climbed directly to the mountain, and the army stayed in the cold wind for most of the hour, at this time the sky had darkened, and the long army of the Northern Liao army had to light torches, which looked like a huge fire dragon from a distance; There was no news from the scouts for such a long time, which made Yelu Hongji anxious, and if he waited like this, he was afraid that the entire army might be in danger of being wiped out again.
At this moment, a spy suddenly stood on a high mountain not far away and shouted below: "Your Majesty, the front is safe, you can pass." ” Yelu Hongji, who was originally anxious, finally showed a smile on his face at this time, and Yelu Hongji immediately ordered: "The whole army advances" Just when Yelu Hongji gave the order, several black shadows suddenly appeared and killed the scouts of Northern Liao, these black shadows lay on the snow and watched a fire dragon slowly drive into the valley, one of them made a look at the other, and this person immediately got up from the snow and ran to the west.
This person was a scout sent by Yelu Nerugu, and the scout came to Yelu Nerugu's side and knelt down on one knee and said, "Your Majesty, the Northern Liao army has entered the valley. ” Jerenerugu waved his hand at the scout, and immediately ordered, "Order all the troops to prepare to attack. ” "Yes, the last general commands."
General Lin took the military order.
In order to be able to hit the Northern Liao army to the greatest extent, Yelu Nerugu made full preparations before this, all the stones were pushed to the edge of the cliff, blocked by a large wooden raft, and when it came to attack, he only needed to cut the rope he was pulling, and the stones, rolling logs and other things would roll down the mountain by himself, and if the stones rolled down from the mountains hundreds of meters high hit the people, they would be smashed into meatloaf.
Time passed quickly, not long after Yelu Hongji's Northern Liao army drilled into the encirclement of the Eastern Liao army, Yelu Nerugu stared at the marching fire dragon below, suddenly waved his hand, the soldiers who had already been prepared immediately cut the ropes tied to both sides of the big wooden row, this time it was terrible, stones, rolling wood rolled down from the mountain in an instant, the whole valley shook the mountain instantly, because there was no preparation in advance, many Northern Liao soldiers were killed or injured by big stones.
After the first wave of attacks, Yelu Nerugu shouted down the mountain: "Brothers under the mountain, you have been surrounded, what good is it for you to follow Yelu Hongji, he is a shameless faint king, for his own rights did not hesitate to fight against the Western Xia people, and the entire Dading Mansion was slaughtered by these foreigners; Brothers, as long as you are willing to surrender, I promise that no one will trouble you."
Yelu Hongji immediately panicked when he heard Yelu Nerugu shouting like this, and then Yelu Hongji said to everyone: "Brothers, don't believe the words of the traitors, if it wasn't for their father and son to launch a rebellion, how could my Great Liao Kingdom land to the point where it is today, brothers, they are traitors to the Great Liao Kingdom at this time, we swear not to surrender for the sake of the Great Liao Kingdom."
Not to mention, Yelu Hongji's words really had a role, and soon the soldiers of the Northern Liao Army shouted loudly: "Swear to die, swear not to surrender" A day later, in the imperial study of Li Liangzuo in the palace of Dading Mansion, Li Yi put a secret letter on Li Liangzuo's dragon case and said: "Your Majesty, I just received the battle report, Yelu Nerugu and yesterday led the army to set up an ambush in the Jianshan Gorge, and successfully ambushed Yelu Hongji's Northern Liao army, the Northern Liao army suffered heavy casualties, conservatively estimated to be around 100,000, and the Eastern Liao army suffered little damage, and the war report also said that Yelu Nerugu captured a large number of weapons, armor and horses, many of which we assisted the Northern Liao army. ” Li Liangzuo picked up the secret letter and glanced at it, threw it on the dragon case and said, "I'm not afraid of god-like opponents, I'm afraid of pig-like teammates." ” "What does Your Majesty mean," Li Yi asked very scratching his head.
Li Liangzuo smiled bitterly and said, "I didn't send a scout horse to closely monitor Yelu Nerugu to see what he did next. ” "Yes, the last general has already arranged for someone."
Li Yi said to Li Liangzuo; "Your Majesty, Yeluhongji's loss this time is not small, this is not necessarily a good thing for us, without Yeluhongji's involvement, Yelunerugu can deal with us with all his strength."
Li Liangzuo smiled and said to Li Yi: "Do you think it still matters whether there is Yelu Hongji's Northern Liao Army now, in fact, this time I should thank Yelu Nerugu well."
Seeing Li Yi's puzzled face, Lilian continued: "Now it is true that Yelu Hongji is our friendly army has suffered huge losses, but Yelu Nerugu will be wiped out sooner or later, and then our current allies will become our enemies, and the more his power is weakened now, the more beneficial it will be for us in the future."
