    Volume 2, Bianliang Mistake, Chapter 58: Breaking the Army (Three) Yelu Dashi's troops rolled towards the north. The four thousand troops and horses spread out the line of troops for seven or eight miles. Although the generals under his command were a little strange,  Why did Yelu Dashi choose to march towards the true north? However, there was no room for them to ask at this time. Once the army and horses moved, they would bring about huge inertia and wrap everyone up in it. In addition, Yelu Dashi was the most confidant.  The enemy's cavalry troops lead in front and cover behind, and wherever they can easily do their own thing, before the army has gone ten miles to the north, groups of people collapsing and retreating have already appeared in the sight of the brigade.  In the meantime, there were Qushuai from all directions who managed to escape, and their soldiers and horses were dispersed. However, there were even more refugees who were trapped in the wild tide, and their cries were loud.  The Qu commanders who retreated sporadically wanted to move closer to Yelu Dashi, but they were driven away by the cavalry led by Yelu Diguolie. Yelu Diguolie was very simple in mind and just followed Yelu Dashi's orders and didn't worry about anything else.  Commander Qu advanced and retreated several times, but was always driven away. One of the commanders became anxious, and led several of his men to rush straight into the queue: "I also sent dozens of stones of grain and grass to the Chinese army that day.  There are eight armored staffs, and there are even more disciples in the army. Now that I am defeated, I can¡¯t even take shelter. What can I do if I rush in?¡±  The cavalry drove forward and rushed towards the group. The cavalry also hesitated for a moment and immediately let them pass. At this time, Yelu Diguolie, who had been patrolling behind the group, happened to come over with more than ten cavalry guards.  Hearing Yelu Dashi yelling from deep within the military formation, "Enemy Guolie, what military order do you have?" Yelu Dashi shouted, and the whole army was shocked. Yelu Enemy Guolie didn't even say a word, he rushed over on his horse and immediately fell into a half-crouch.  He lowered his body and passed by Qu Shuai. He slashed at the side of his neck with the long knife in his hand, and immediately made a deep gash on the side of Qu Shuai's neck, and blood spurted out.  Na Qushuai couldn't speak anymore. He pressed the wound on the side of his neck, paused for a moment, turned over and fell down. Yelu enemy Guolie turned around, knocked over another of Naqushuai's men, and shouted:  "Those who mess up our army, let go and kill them." Yelu Dashi's cavalry troops were based on the troops stationed by refugees from Liaodong. They were brought out by Yelu's enemies. With his order, these cavalry troops immediately let go.  Under the leadership of Commander Na Qu, more defeated refugees were already swarming towards the large army. These cavalry soldiers immediately rushed forward, slashing and stabbing randomly. Blood splattered everywhere, and the sound of crying became louder.  In the blink of an eye, hundreds of people who wanted to join Yelu Dashi's army were killed, and the remaining people fled in a hurry. Compared with the scene just now, this best support was also lost. It was miserable.  , ten times larger than before. The large group of infantry in the middle was protected by the cavalry. From the generals to the soldiers, they stared at everything in front of them with their mouths open. Many people subconsciously turned their eyes to the Yelu Dashi in the army.  But he saw the big stone Linya turning a blind eye and just urging the team forward, closely surrounded by dozens of personal guards.  Many people realized at this time that Dashi Linya was not going to meet the enemy, but to lead the brigade to escape from this death place. The defeated brigade and the refugees and civilians were running away. This collapse scene had already made these soldiers feel thrilling.  .  There were hundreds of camps standing in front of the Chinese army. The commanders were afraid that they did not have 20,000 to 30,000 capable warriors, plus there were no less than 100,000 dependent civilians, so they collapsed and retreated without any resistance.  .  As far as the eye can see, there are all groups of people who have been driven in by the enemy and have become frightened.  At this time, even if everyone tries to fight, it may not be useful. I am afraid that they will be completely dispersed by the subsequent wave of retreating people. Since Dashi Linya wants to lead everyone out of this dead place, then just follow them.  As long as one can save one life in this crumbling scene, it means that there are still people who are thinking about their relatives and children who were once the commander-in-chief. But in such a chaotic scene, where can they find them?  The peripheral cavalry who had already killed their men and horses were splattered with blood, and stared at everything around them. As long as they dared to leave the team without permission and disrupt the ranks, they would not hesitate to kill them. In the midst of the chaos,  This queue of several thousand people marched forward in silence with pale faces.  I couldn't help but walk faster and faster, I just wanted to leave this place of death as soon as possible. It was relatively good at first. There were not too many defeated soldiers and refugees who collapsed from the front, and there were not many obstacles on the way forward.  As time gradually passed, the retreating men and horses were almost like a rolling tide, jammed everywhere on the road ahead. Yelu Enemy Guolie led his cavalry to run around, trying his best to protect the brigade.  Not to be disturbed.  As long as you dare to rush here??, there was a burst of slashing on the head.  Later, it became too difficult to kill. Some infantry troops, led by generals, came out to help block the cavalry troops. They used spears and swords to chop and stab at the front row.  All the way forward, there is blood all the way.  They had not yet met the Song soldiers and horses under Xiao Yan's command, and they had killed an unknown number of people along the way. The entire brigade, although order was still generally maintained, was moving slower and slower.  The queue was getting denser and denser. The infantrymen in the middle couldn't see anything around them. They could only listen in confusion in the queue to a tsunami-like sound of crying and shouting coming from all around.  Now it is entirely because of fear that the Chinese army group has not collapsed.  Still moving north on instinct.  No one knows what kind of changes will happen in the next moment. No one knows how this mighty Fu Liao army could collapse into such a situation. Yelu Dashi is among the Chinese army, with dozens of guardsmen.  The soldiers on horseback and on horseback were already crowded tightly against the Yelu Rock. They kept yelling and cursing at the surroundings, asking the soldiers not to collide with the Yelu Rock.  At this moment, Yelu Dashi already knew that his thousands of troops and horses might not be able to lead him out of this dead place as he wished. Who would have thought that Xiao Yan could defeat the resistance of the Fu Liao Army in the shortest time with just a few thousand fine cavalry, and also immediately rolled up  The waves of collapse and retreat kept coming back one after another, submerging all organized groups in this panic and frenzy.  With thousands of cavalry, they are like a pack of wolves driving away sheep.  Let enemies who are far more numerous than you run around and trample on each other.  This is exactly the way those people on horseback who grew up in the north are best at fighting.  When the Liao Dynasty was founded, those elite horses were also so majestic.  This is a very difficult cavalry battle tactic. It must not only crush the opponent's will to resist as quickly as possible, but also prevent oneself from being drowned in this crazy trend. It must always maintain pressure and always drive away these collapsing crowds.  When there was still a little bit of strength left, he was running away with all his strength.  These hundreds of thousands of people were not defeated, but collapsed due to self-confusion and trampling. After the founding of the Liao Dynasty for more than a hundred years, there were no more thousands of elite riders with such ability.  However, a Song army led by Xiao Yan showed such ability again. "Such Xiao Yan, I still underestimated him from afar." At this moment, the only choice is to leave the group and lead the remaining people who can gather together.  The Qingqi together seized the road to escape before being trapped like this. This last chance passed in a blink of an eye. Yelu Dashi quickly made a decision at this moment and was about to lead the guards to rush out from the group to fight against Yelu's enemy.  On the occasion of rendezvous.  Then another wave of cries was heard, and another wave of retreating people rolled over the hills to the west of the road, rolling and crawling to escape.  In the blink of an eye, an armored Song general appeared in sight, carrying a long-handled sword.  Behind him, there were figures of powerful and agile soldiers of the Song Army riding tall horses, appearing in a steady stream. The armor-clad Song general's gaze was like cold lightning, crossing the crowds of people, crossing the distance between the hills and hills, and looking at Yelu Dashi from a distance.  As soon as Yelu Dashi hit it, it seemed that at this moment, he could see General Song's mouth wide open and the look of ecstasy on his face ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ At this moment, Han Shizhong could hardly believe his eyes.  But here, they ran into Yelu Dashi's Chinese army group.  Yelu Dashi was on such a huge battlefield, with hundreds of thousands of people rushing to shout out the chaotic tide. Although Han Shizhong was eager, he also knew that the chance of his family hitting Yelu Dashi first was not that great, and he was not as rebellious as Xiao Yan.  sky.  Unexpectedly, Xiao Yan's good luck seemed to have infected him, Han Shizhong. Yelu Dashi actually did not abandon the army and left first, but was discovered by Han Shizhong. This situation was of course caused by various reasons.  Yelu Dashi had never really interacted with Xiao Yan's troops.  Naturally, the judgment of the opponent's strength is not very accurate.  Although Yelu Dashi was ruthless when committing murder, he always showed love and affection towards his subordinates.  Even this military horse, which had only been trained for less than a month, was average.  Unless it is absolutely necessary, he will not easily abandon the strength he has painstakingly accumulated to restore the country in the future and leave first.  " And Xiao Yan's men are really brave and fast beyond imagination.  It had been many years since they had fought in the Yan region, and Xiao Yan's subordinates all had the intention of finishing their efforts in one battle to determine the overall situation as soon as possible and return to the Song Dynasty to praise their achievements and repair. They saw that this was the last battle to defeat the Liao army.  Before the battle, Xiao Yan miraculously arrived in time, and the Bianliang Angels were admitted to the camp again. The heavy rain continued for days.  All kinds of things boosted the morale of the thousands of elite cavalry under Xiao Yan to the highest point. Once they went into battle, they showed their super-level combat effectiveness and fought such a classic cavalry rout. And Han Shizhong was hungry for a long time.  Yes, he is better than his son-in-lawYou have to work very hard and head straight into the depths, as fast as the wind.  Coupled with some bad luck, Yelu Dashi caught the biggest prey before Yelu Dashi could abandon his army. Han Shizhong was overjoyed. He looked around and saw that there were only a few hundred Song Army knights following him.  Ten cavalrymen could not see any supporting personnel nearby.  He knew that his army and horses were scattered due to the charge, but how could he let Yelu Dashi go now?  He immediately made a decision, and ordered a few soldiers in the uniforms of junior officers loudly: "Each of them will lead ten cavalry, and go and spread the word. I have captured Yelu Dashi here, so there is no need to worry about other places. The rebel army has been defeated."  It's out of control. The various units are scattered and all are gathered here to capture Yelu Dashi." The few young officers were also so excited that their chests heaved heavily. They agreed to greet their respective troops without hesitation and turned around and left.  Han Shizhong turned around and glanced at the Yelv Dashi Chinese Army Brigade under the hill again with a cold gaze. At this time, the peripheral cavalry also noticed the movement on the hill. They dropped everything and galloped in this direction, preparing to gather to meet the enemy.  Han Shizhong raised his long-handled sword and shouted: "Do you have the courage to follow me and charge for a while?" The general below responded loudly: "Handu Yuhou, why don't we dare? Isn't this the reason for charging here?" Han Shizhong  He laughed loudly, but did not have any rashness to order his subordinates to rush towards the infantry array. He loudly ordered: "Look for the enemy's cavalry on the outside, raid and fight, and entangle the four-legged ones. The two-legged ones are not afraid of them running to the sky."  After raiding once, turn back, then come again, bite them hard, you all remember, the Yelu big stone of the straight mother-in-law can only belong to me, Lao Han." The eyes of the Song army were red, these armors were like wolves and tigers.  The soldiers gathered together and rushed down the hill, following Han Shizhong who was leading the way.  They belong to the heavy cavalry command post.  During the impact, they naturally formed a queue, and the rumbling sound seemed to shake down the hill. They rushed down, leaving only a dozen riders still on the hill. They were in case of emergency, while looking at the ones they were still carrying.  Fifty or sixty horses were prepared.  Even when they were so excited and excited, these cavalry troops fought according to the rules. Han Shizhong was at the front, leaning on his horse.  The knife was dragged behind his back.  Try to maximize the horse's speed.  The sound of wind suddenly passed by my ears.  The horse's speed is already so fast ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  ~~~~~~~ Under the hills, on the west side of the avenue, at this time, a team of about a hundred cavalry was also gathering in the direction facing Han Shizhong and the others.  Attacking from behind was obviously not a good idea, and they couldn't react in time.  At this time, he wanted to retreat, but Yelu Dashi, who was in the military formation, also hurriedly sent an order, hoping that an infantry army would come forward to meet Han Shizhong's nearly a hundred cavalry in a spear formation.  After hindering them for a while, they then used the cavalry to kill them from both sides.  Yelu Dashi¡¯s reaction was not unpleasant, and his response was not incorrect.  But after all, they are military horses that have only been trained for a month. The situation is much neater. Once they face the battle, they will see the details. Fortunately, the cavalry army is mostly refugees from Liaodong who were stationed in the army, and their foundation is not bad.  There weren't many flaws to be seen in the chaotic battle, and the team of Qingqi's sentinels were able to control the pursuit.  But this is the most important test of the infantry's quality.  Without long-term training, long-term immersion in strict discipline, and some practical experience, how could it be easily organized?  Not to mention that if such a change occurs in a hurry, the array will change soon.  The order was issued, and the general who received the order loudly agreed, but he shouted the order to his subordinates incomprehensibly.  Even if the general's order was correct, these infantry soldiers were already panicking and could only subconsciously squeeze together with the brigade. Not even a single soldier came out to form a spear formation to serve as the Song cavalry.  The army retreated not far and was about to collide with the infantry formation. Han Shizhong had already caught up with them.  Han Shizhong just used one hand to throw out the long-handled sword from behind, and with a flash of cold lightning, the blade passed by.  The two enemy cavalrymen suddenly turned over and fell off their horses. Han Shizhong had already pulled out the long knife he was wearing with his other hand. He controlled the horse purely with his legs, and made two more chops in close combat. He was strong and heavy, and he made two chops, followed by two more.  Riding the account.  Han Shizhong twisted the stirrup, and the horses neighed and turned sideways. With their hind legs exerted, they had turned to the north and galloped parallel to the direction of the forward direction of the large group of Fu Liao troops. Almost at the same time as Han Shizhong turned, the large group of Song cavalry behind them had already swarmed in.  to.  The front and rear queues are clearly separated.  After all, these were from heavy cavalry backgrounds and did not have the ability to raid with light cavalry from the Shengjie Army.  Don't dare to get too close to the other person before turning.  At this time, the bows and arrows had no time to dry after the rain and were of no use. Fortunately, everyone still had a few throwing spears left.  At the same time as it turns, a row of spears are thrown.  Opposite the Fu Liao Army's cavalry, people suddenly fell on their backs.  The first team followed Han Shizhong and turned around, rushing to the front of the large group of Liao troops. The latter team followed the same action, and there were three lines in total.?.  It's three rows of spear throws.  Face to face, the Liao army's light cavalry were almost wiped out, and many spears fell into the infantry formation. The screams suddenly sounded uncontrollably in the infantry formation. The nearly one hundred Song army's light cavalry turned around one after another.  Galloping towards the front of the Fu Liao Army brigade.  Occasionally, the cavalry of the Central Army of the Fu Liao Army blocked their way, but they were all cut down by Han Shizhong.  Han Shizhong didn't like to use horses, so he used a long-handled sword with a blade that looked like a chopping board. The fight was really violent.  Combined with the power of his slashing power, the sword can often cut his opponent in half with a single stroke. He has a strong body and thick arms. This counterattack force is not a problem for him.  With such a rush, I don't know how many opponents were split into two pieces. The infantry brigade of the Central Army of the Liao Army was gathered in one place. At this time, it had almost lost the ability to react.  They could only watch in horror as nearly a hundred soldiers of the Song Army passed by their formation like wolves and tigers, and in the blink of an eye they were already in front.  Then he turned around and came back under the leadership of the Song Army general who used a long-handled broadsword to kill him with blood all over his body. He formed three rows again and took a posture, intending to raid again. Yelu Dashi closed his eyes in pain. If he didn't leave, he would  That's too late.  Even if he abandoned the army and fled at this moment, the possibility of escaping was not too great. This was the first time he had left his subordinate behind in the battle formation.  It was more likely that this was the last time he could lead the army for a while. Yelu Dashi even wanted to give up, but the manly ambition to restore the country in his heart made him open his eyes suddenly and loudly gave his secret instructions to his trusted guards.  The order passed: "Abandon the army and go northeast." Following Yelu Dashi's sudden order, the dozens of armored knights guarding him took action at the same time, beating their horses and rushing outward.  The infantry in front did not hesitate to step over them, and even started to chop them.  Shouts and screams suddenly sounded deep in the military formation.  This Fu Liao Army's marching array, with a long diameter and a small width, was rushed away by them in an instant, guarding the Yelu Rock and rushing northeast. The Yelu Enemy National Lieutenant had been paying attention to the movement of the Yelu Rock, and saw the Yelu Rock collapse.  When he came out, he immediately shouted to greet his troops.  The cavalry troops under Yelu Dashi, who were walking around, immediately started to fight in the direction of Yelu Dashi's escape.  This change occurred suddenly, and the infantry of the Central Army of the Fu Liao Army even stood on the spot, watching everything that happened in front of them.  It was a general who reacted first, raised his sword and shouted: "Dashi Linya doesn't want us, let's take care of our own lives." Following the general's shout, a louder sound suddenly erupted in the infantry formation.  The thousands of infantry troops that could still maintain their appearance suddenly exploded with a bang.  Countless infantry soldiers ran out.  They didn't know where to escape in the right direction. They subconsciously just wanted to escape from this place of death. The people behind them pushed down the people in front of them, and then they were stepped on by the people further behind.  In order to leave the group faster, some even killed each other.  Once they left the group a little bit, these people were no longer restrained by generals and could no longer be called an army. They dropped their weapons one after another and took off their burdened armor while running wildly.  Yelu Dashi's infantry army has more than 3,000 people. With the full support of all the commanders of the Fu Liao Army, they are also fully armed and nearly half of them are armored.  However, after escaping from the camp and traveling less than fifteen or six miles to the north, they could no longer exist as an army.  These thousands of strong men caused a panic that was ten times greater than that of the defeated army and the refugees. The Qu commanders and their subordinates who retreated from the front, plus more refugees and civilians, could not get close to the Yelu Dashi.  A large group of soldiers were killed by them.  But there were more people acting together with them. With such a well-looking army and horses, the people and horses who had fled here felt a little more at ease.  There were more and more people gathering around, but I finally took a breath.  Unexpectedly, the soldiers of the Song Army suddenly appeared and raided only once. The army and horses that they relied on as Mount Tai immediately collapsed. Yelu Dashi, the commander-in-chief of the Liao Army, only took his cavalry and fled northeastward. These attachments  The defeated troops and common people all around were immediately scattered again, and there was no possibility of recovery.  This crazy trend has reached its peak at this moment. Han Shizhong led his men and watched with wide eyes as Yelu Dashi suddenly broke out and ran diagonally to the northeast.  Watching the thousands of troops and horses that were still there suddenly collapse.  Han Shizhong cursed loudly: "This Yelu Dashi is not moving very fast." He immediately called out to the whole army, regardless of the formation, and rushed in the direction where Yelu Dashi escaped.  However, thousands of rebel troops scattered, plus ten times the number of other defeated troops and refugees, the pursuit road was suddenly full of people. Han Shizhong's troops tried desperately to bite them as if they were cutting open a bloody alley.  But after all, there was a delay, and when the generals blocked the way and dispersed, Yelu Dashi was already two or three miles ahead.  Han Shizhong was covered in blood, and without even taking a moment to catch his breath, he chased after him with all his strength.  While gritting his teeth, he muttered to himself: "Look at how you can run to the sky. With your head, I??ÊÇÒª¶¨ÁË¡±????¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«¡«  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ At this time, at the other end of the battlefield, the Western Army brigade also rushed out, covering the sky and the sun from all directions from Yanjing, rushing towards  In front of the scattered camp of the Liao army, the sound of golden drums shook the sky and the earth, and the soldiers of the Western Army marched in like a wall. In front of the brigade, there were also selected light cavalry from various departments of the Western Army.  , rushing to the front with red eyes. The rebel army has collapsed, and Xiao Yan's troops have already taken the lead. It is now the last battle in Yandi. If we don't take credit at this time, how can everyone in Yanjing take credit?  On the mountains and rivers, the large and small camps that tightly surrounded Yanjing, after getting used to the situation where the Western Army could not retreat, thought that the Western Army's combat effectiveness was no more than this. After a long siege, the city lacked food.  There are still various units of the Fu Liao Army that have a chance to conquer Yanjing. At this time, they can only abandon their respective camps and give up the little possessions they have accumulated with great difficulty. There are no more command orders. Each commander is accompanied by only a few confidants, and even rides alone.  Running wildly. Just want to seize the road, no matter what direction it is, as long as you can escape from this dead place. As soon as the Western Army comes out, it is a posture of blocking the sky and attacking. This scene makes these people proud for a while.  Only then did the commanders from all sides realize that their scattered troops and horses were nothing in front of the regular army and the only main field force in the Song Dynasty. The troops and horses trained by Yelu Dashi had already made them think that they were rare elites who could be used in the future.  As the support of Mount Tai, but compared with the tens of thousands of elite soldiers of the Western Army, they realized that the military horses trained by Yelu Dashi were also useless. At this time, they realized that Yelu Dashi did not intend to fight these Song troops at all.  , but to accumulate strength for the future. It is all lies to go to the northwest to live in Xiao Yan. At this time, Yelu Dashi might have left with these thousands of troops, and those who were left behind were the only ones.  In this chaos, every camp was destroyed by the Western Army. The Western Army had sufficient troops and was mainly infantry. It did not need to advance recklessly like Xiao Yan's troops to maintain the momentum and destroy each camp.  After some time check, the Western Army had strict military discipline and would not rob their own homes. The marching marshals of each army took away the things worth keeping, and the smoke and flames rose into the sky from one camp to another.  The pillars of smoke seemed to be the legs and feet of giants, chasing closely behind the countless people who were just trying to escape. In addition to these Western troops who were still advancing step by step, there were two to three thousand selected from the Western troops.  Riders and horses. They were almost all the men and horses of the Western Army who could fight on horseback. However, they ignored the camps along the way and the crowds of people fleeing for their lives. They divided themselves into small groups of hundreds or even hundreds of people and marched straight in. These cavalry troops were even more intensified.  Amid the chaos of the fleeing crowd, countless people vomited blood and fell limply to the ground, before being stepped on by countless pairs of feet. The Fu Liao Army marched from west to east. At this time, there was no safe place, and they were all fighting desperately.  Rushing in the middle.  The frenzy that rolled up from both sides finally converged into a ball, colliding with each other and disturbing each other.  People who could no longer escape were scattered in all directions, just crying out in despair, hoping that this chaos would end soon, hoping that they could escape from this inexplicable chaos that started and ended inexplicably.  Yu Sheng Qin Feng's army advanced the fastest with the Qingqi led by Yao Pingzhong as the vanguard.  At this time, Yao Pingzhong only had three or four hundred cavalry left by his side.  As Yao Pingzhong walked along the way, even if they only cut down the men and horses blocking the road, they would have killed everyone covered in blood by this time.  Yao Pingzhong led the brigade and rushed left and right in the crowd crazily. When he was in the middle of the battle, he just looked up to the sky and shouted: "Where is the Yelu Rock? Where is the Yelu Rock?" bk
