Chapter 49: Soldiers are very fast

An error occurred while processing s private file

"Woo woo..." The alarm horn soared into the sky, suddenly tore the tranquility of the night...

The Liao army camp suddenly woke up, people shouted and neighed, and the war drums were like thunder. Teams of soldiers rushed out of the tent, and rows of knights rushed out of the camp. The Liao army woke up in their sleep, lined up in fear, and then quickly evacuated.

The deputy envoy of the Wuding Army, the chief commander, the Du Yuhou, and the commander of the battalions arrived at the central army as quickly as possible.

Monk Xiao and Shangnu had already gotten on the horse with his entourage and were about to leave when he saw a group of subordinates coming in a hurry, he waved his hand and signaled everyone to gather around him.

"Just just now, the scout reported that the rebels were coming to Wenguang Pi, obviously intending to surround us and encircle us here." The monk slave hurriedly said, "Escape immediately, discard the baggage, discard the tent, and evacuate at full speed, fast, fast..."

Everyone was shocked and looked around in shock. The commanders of each battalion ran away without saying a word and went back to lead the army to evacuate.

"Empress, how many roads are there for the rebels to go away from us?" Deputy envoy Yelu Qingji also didn't sleep all night and turned red for two nights. He asked anxiously, "Last year the scout reported that the rebels were still under the city of Xijing. Why did the rebels come here overnight?"

"Ask me, who will I ask? I am not a god." The monknu cursed angrily, "Li Hu has always been in the war, and has no way to figure it out. The scout said that he was still under the city in Xijing yesterday. Did he see it with his own eyes? I have said that the advancement should be slower, don't go deep alone, so as not to eat the rebels in one bite. You just don't believe it, saying that His Majesty is outside the Great Wall, and Yelu Ma Ge is staring at Li Hu tightly. There will be no problem. What will happen?" The monknu pointed to the dark forest around him and shouted angrily, "Li Hu is here and is surrounding us. This is all your fault."

No one answered, and the big guy followed the monk slave and ran away.

Monk Xiao was originally a Guizhou Observer on Northeast Road. He was chased and beaten by the Jurchens all the way. Later, he fled to Zhongjing with his remaining troops. He had not been promoted for several years. This time he was finally promoted to the governor of Fengshengzhou, but he was new and unfamiliar with people. The Wuding Army was not his own, and he was very proud of everything. Just when he was about to change people, Li Hu came, which scared him so much that he did not dare to change the morale of the army, so he would disperse the army.

The monknu fought with Li Hu during the war in Chengzhou. He knew Li Hu's power, but the people of the Wuding Army didn't know. In their impression, Li Hu was just a rebel, and he won several battles with Wanyan Agu's nepotism. What's so scary? Xijing Road is our territory. In this place, we are local snakes. Even if Li Hu was a cross-river, when he arrived at Xijing Road, he was a local snake and was not our opponent at all. We wanted to defeat him back to his original form and let him go back to western Liaoning.

People are afraid of ignorance. The ignorant people are fearless. When the Wuding Army and local people heard that they were going to Xijing to attack the rebels, they were very happy. They were ready to beat Li Hu all over the ground. Of course, some people were also afraid. But for the sake of face, they followed behind and started to make trouble. The monk said, let's go slower and keep a close eye on the movements in Xijing. If the rebels retreated, the emperor led the main army into Xijing. We rushed to meet again. The Wuding Army and local people were slanderous and agreed. But they were quick at their feet. They wanted to arrive at Xijing early and cooperated with the emperor's main army to carry out a siege to seize some credit. As a result, they walked too fast and went deeper. Instead, they were targeted by the rebels and immediately passed to the commanders of each army.

The Mao army is already prepared for this. In recent years, the rebel army has won many battles. Li Hu is even more famous. The Liao army in Xijing is unlikely to be unsuspecting. It will not underestimate the enemy as in the past. Therefore, tens of thousands of troops surrounded the four sides. It is very likely that they were discovered by the Liao army scouts. Since I want to surround you, of course I will not let you run away.

"I ordered all the troops to light torches, speed up, and surround the Liao army with all their might." Mao's army immediately ordered. "I hurriedly tell General Yun. At all costs, be sure to block the Liao army on the north bank of the Yanghe River. Don't let them cross the river and retreat to Changqing City."

"Tell Mu Taoli again. The traces of our army have been exposed. Please lead the army to chase and kill along the road. Be sure to hold the Liao army."

The commander troops scattered. Mao's army turned over and ran quickly to the hills of wood, peach and plum trees, and looked at Wenguang Pond several miles away.

The torches on Wenguang Pond were twinkling, as bright as a galaxy. But this galaxy is now moving rapidly towards the northeast.

"Mu Shuai, the situation is wrong." The deputy general Dazhuo Nu raised the whip in his hand and pointed it forward. "The Liao army is retreating, and they must have discovered us."

Mu Taoli glanced at him and smiled and said, "Are you sure?"

Tielli slapped his chest and said, "Let's bet."

"What are you betting on?" Mu Taoli glared at him dissatisfiedly, "This is a war, and people are going to die. Can this be bet on it? If the Liao army retreats, what should we do?"

"Chasing." Damei Nu waved his hand hard, "The whereabouts have been revealed, don't hide it anymore, just light a torch and chase it at full speed." Damei Nu turned around and pointed at the soldiers marching under the hills, "We have three generals, more than 7,000 people, chasing them at the tail, with amazing momentum and will definitely scare the Khitans."

Mu Taoli looked at him and smiled slightly, "Without Mao Shuai's order, do you dare to chase him?"

The Great Compassion Slave immediately became alert, looked alert, staring at Mu Taoli with both eyes, and did not say anything. He felt that he had been in the Han Dynasty again. The two had worked together for a long time, killing the enemy side by side, and sharing life and death, and had long been good friends, but Mu Taoli was cunning by nature. He was the commander of the First Army. Whenever he encountered something that might have to bear serious responsibility, he would use the words to trap the Great Compassion Slave and let the Great Compassion Slave make the decision. If something happened, the two of them were unlucky together. The Great Compassion Slave had no scheming and had been fooled several times. Fortunately, Mao Jun was his old boss, and knew that he was a human being, and he would always cover up for him, and he would spend some time on small matters.

Mu Taoli looked aloof and said another sentence, "We are the horse army. If we find that the Liao army has fled, but we delayed not chasing the enemy, and did not delay the enemy, resulting in the failure of encirclement and annihilation, although we will not bear too much responsibility, Mao Shuai will definitely be scolded by the General Manager." Mu Taoli secretly glanced at the slave of Dayue and said in a long tone, "You know, there have been rumors in the army that the Tiger Lie Army is now the Huaihua Army of the past, and said that the General Manager should not hand over the Tiger Lie Army to Mao Shuai and Gao Shuai... If this battle is unsuccessful and the Tiger Lie Army loses its face, some people probably want to talk about their shortcomings behind the scenes. The General Manager is angry, it is very likely..."

"Chasing." Dazhu Nu shouted at Mu Taoli, "You are the commander of the first army. If something happens, you can't escape."

Mu Taoli laughed and kicked the horse's belly. The war horse neighed and shot out. Mu Taoli turned his back to the Great Compassion Slave and waved, "Brother, go quickly and kill someone."

The horse army quickly turned from the rugged mountain road to the main road. The torch was lit, the horses ran, and the horns were blowing. Soon, a surging torrent roared out loudly, and a huge roar shocked the mountains and forests. They rushed up the mountains and looked around, and they all changed their color in horror.

On the distant mountains, countless torches gathered into long dragons, and the rebels were swarming from all directions. What made them particularly scared was that the deafening sound of war horses galloping from the mountains to the west came, and the smoke and dust rose into the sky and filled the air.

"How many roads are there to Changqing City?" asked Monk Xiao loudly.

"Fifteen miles." A follower replied hurriedly.

Everyone felt a chill. Fifteen miles were too long and it was too late. The rebels were chasing them quickly, and the closest ones to the Liao army were only four or five miles away. The Wuding army had no time to withdraw to Changqing City.

Monk Xiao did not dare to hesitate and immediately ordered, "Stop retreating and blocking it on the spot."

Blocking? What to block? The rebels' horse army was roaring and roaring. The Liao army was in danger and had no power to fight back at all. They had to wait for death.

"Go up the mountain." The monk slave pointed to the continuous mountains in front of him and said loudly, "Go up the mountain and stayed firm, wait for help."

The generals could not care much about it, so they first talked about the life and death barrier in front of them. So the Liao army immediately changed the direction of retreat, with 15,000 soldiers and more than 30,000 soldiers and more than 30,000 soldiers following the soldiers and civilians, flocking to the mountain.

"Send someone to cross the Great Wall from the direction of Yunmen Mountain, and urgently report to Your Majesty, asking Your Majesty to send troops to help." The monk slave hurriedly wrote a few words for help, and then handed them over to a team of scouts, asking them to send the letter to Baishuilu anyway.

"Empress, the commander of the southern route, Yelu Dashi, should have arrived in Weizhou." Deputy envoy Yelu Qingji whispered, "Check him for help and ask him to go north quickly to support him."

The monk slave smiled bitterly and said nothing. The emperor had already drawn 50,000 people from Yanjing. He still had to draw Yelu Dashi's army now. How could the King of Yan let go? The King of Yan is unable to protect himself now. He has to defend Zhongjing and Yanjing. He has to lose sight of one thing and another. How could the army go north to support Xijing Road? The imperial edict for the dispatch of troops had probably been thrown into the corner by him.
