Chapter 747: There is a prerequisite for changing dynasties, which is not to be benefited by foreigners.

"Are they still chasing?"

"The horse didn't get it, and the eagle died. Look at the appearance of the Liao dog. He was already furious. The lion stuck his head out and came after him again!"

"However, his men were unwilling and even whipped one of them and threw him off his horse..."

On the narrow and winding mountain road, more than 60 war horses formed a long queue. They had already turned around and turned back, but now they started tracking again.

The leader, Xiao Xiangwen, breathed fire with his eyes, bent his bow and arrows, and kept aiming in all directions, looking for traces of the enemy. However, the cavalry behind him suppressed their dissatisfaction, and the speed of their running horses obviously slowed down.

As for Xiao Shisan, who had tipped off the news, when Hai Dongqing was shot and killed, the furious Xiao Xiangwen knocked him off his horse with a hammer, causing his brain to burst and leaving him unable to die.

All this fell into the eyes of the observers. Led by Li Yan who was riding on the lion, Lu Junyi, Hua Rong, Xu Ning, and Zhang Qing watched particularly carefully.

Hua Rong took the lead and said: "In terms of personal bravery, the soldiers of this Pishi Army are much stronger than the Fourth Army I saw in the Forbidden Army in the middle of the capital."

Xu Ning said solemnly: "Even compared to the Banzhi guards, they still have to give in. The Liao people are indeed more brave."

Zhang Qingze said: "Weapons and military equipment are not bad either. Look at the weapons carried by each horse, such as spears, bows and arrows, hammers, cones, axes and axes. There are also armors, which are no worse than our Song army!"

This group of cavalry are all in body armor, with shoulder and leg armor. Their helmets are decorated with curved helmet plates, and the edges are armor plates. This kind of armor shape, in the eyes of a certain Tang Dynasty detective, is very familiar.

It is too powerful. It cannot be said to be exactly the same as the Zhajia of the Tang Dynasty. It is obviously of the same origin. Only with this armor can one dare to go deep with sixty riders. There is really nothing the ordinary army can do.

When everyone thought about what their brother said, the Liao Dynasty inherited the Tang Dynasty system, which was reflected in many aspects. This country, which was founded earlier than the Zhao and Song Dynasties, must not be simply regarded as a foreign barbarian, and their expressions became heavier.

Lu Junyi said: "It is indeed necessary to come here to see something. The Pishi Army of the Liao Kingdom is indeed an elite unit and its reputation is well-deserved. Let's look at the Xiang Army of the Song Dynasty. It is really unbearable..."

After the four people finished talking, Duan Jingzhu and Chai Jin were the only ones left.

Duan Jingzhu kept silent. He was a horse dealer and didn't even know many words. He felt that he couldn't participate in this kind of discussion.

As a son of a nobleman, Chai Jin raised his neck and wanted to express his opinion, but he found that he seemed to be unable to say anything except for the iron certificate of the alchemy book. He could only respond: "I think so too!"

Li Yan waited for everyone to finish their analysis before he said: "The military system of the Liao Kingdom is that each regular soldier has three horses, one for grazing in the valley, one servant each for guarding the camp, four bows, four hundred arrows, long and short spears, and gold bones and flowers.

, an axe, a small flag, a hammer and awl, a fire knife, a horse bowl, a bucket of glutinous rice, a bag of glutinous rice, a riveted umbrella, and two hundred feet of horse rope..."

Everyone was startled when they heard the words, then looked at the Pishi Army, and after thinking about it, Lu Junyi immediately said: "The normal Pishi Army is an armored cavalry with one person and three horses, with servants as guards, and the military appearance is neat, and this group

When the cavalry saw Lion Cong's magnificent horse, they got carried away and chased them out rashly. With such military discipline, why should they be afraid?"

Hua Rong said: "Yes, brother said that the most important thing about an army is not the bravery of individuals, but the overall military discipline. Although the individual soldiers of this Pishi Army are not weak, the generals are full of selfish desires and the soldiers are free and loose. This is a taboo.

!”

Xu Ning breathed a sigh of relief: "In this way, our Song Dynasty has the advantage of defending the city, so why can't we defeat it in battle?"

Seeing that everything he wanted to say had been said, Zhang Qing closed his mouth, and then heard Chai Jin continue: "I think so too!"

Not to mention Chai Daguanren's re-reading, everyone's voices were low and the atmosphere was solemn before. It was obvious that after comparing ourselves and the enemy, they realized that the Northern Army was not an elite opponent at all. At this time, their voices finally rose and their confidence returned.

Li Yan concluded: "There is no need to be arrogant, and there is no need to belittle oneself. In my opinion, the decline of the Pishi Army and the decline of the Northern Army are actually due to two reasons. One is that peace has lasted for a long time without war, and the other is the involvement of

Business is too heavy."

"The entanglement of interests in business, intrigues, and petty calculations are the most likely to corrode the will to fight. Even in the good aspects, businessmen value peace. Can soldiers value peace? Especially middle- and lower-level generals and soldiers cannot compete with businessmen.

Those who are involved too much will be obsessed with money, and their family wealth will become richer. On the battlefield, they must be cautious and timid, and the battle will be defeated!"

"Another point is that the style of the foreign race is the laxity of discipline at the bottom. Whether it is the Khitan or the Dangxiang, if they really form a formation to fight with the Han army, they will not take much advantage. When the Xixia defeated the Song Dynasty, the three

In this battle, under the circumstances of several times of encirclement and suppression, the battle loss rate was one to one. This was the advantage brought by the strict discipline of the Song Dynasty army."

Everyone nodded, and their understanding of the enemy and ourselves became clearer. In this state, Li Yan said: "Let's take action!"

Everyone was in high spirits and rushed out immediately. Hua Rong and Zhang Qing fired long-range attacks, specifically targeting the horses. Lu Junyi and Xu Ning rushed to kill them. Duan Jingzhu followed closely behind. Chai Jin hesitated a little, and looked into his sleeves.

Drawing out the Whirlwind Shadowless Sword, the last one rushed forward: "Wait for me! I'll come too!"

On the other side, seeing the bird-killing enemy finally appear, the leader Xiao Xiangwen's eyes were splitting: "Thief, give me Ying'er's life back!"

Then he was blinded.

Six against sixty, and there are cavalry. If they charge on the ground, even with the bravery of Lu Junyi and Xu Ning, they may have to kill three in and three out before they can disperse the enemy.

But at this time, the terrain was chosen extremely well. This group of Khitan cavalry was divided into a long snake, and the head and tail could not be considered at the same time. Hua Rong's arrows and Zhang Qing's stones had already made their mounts scream and scream, and they fell down screaming in agony.

Seven or eight people came, and the oncoming Lu and Xu rushed in unstoppably. When there was no general under their command, the Liao people were in a direct trend of collapse.

However, Xiao Xiangwen did not recognize the situation for a while, and did not forget to shout the command: "Charge! Kill all these Song people!"

Hua Rong originally wanted to capture the thief before he captured the king, and aimed his arrow at the gap in his face armor, but when he saw his random command, he immediately stopped shooting, deliberately igniting the flames of discord between the superiors and the subordinates.

When the cavalry at the rear turned their horses, the cavalry at the front dispersed to both sides, just fleeing. Hua Rong had just fired an arrow, Xiao Xianwen fell off his horse in response, and a massacre officially started.

Seeing blood splattering and screaming, Li Yan's brows were furrowed and he didn't look happy.

What he just said was not a pretense of comfort, he really looked down upon this so-called leather army.

If it were still the world of the Tang Dynasty, without taking into account the difference in physical fitness of ordinary people, he would definitely be able to defeat the 30,000 Pishi army with three thousand elite soldiers and lose their armor, and achieve a complete victory.

Unfortunately, it is not the Tang Dynasty, but the Song Dynasty.

As mentioned before, the Liao Kingdom was seven points worse, with three points left. The Song Dynasty was nine points worse, with only one point left. It was still inferior to the other party. It is no wonder that the Liao Army was defeated by the Jin Kingdom later.

After several defeats, they could still defeat the Song army after turning around.

So to put it bluntly, if we replace the 100,000 Northern troops, they may be beaten by the opponent's 30,000 Pishi troops who look down on them, and they will not even be able to defeat the enemy.

Yu Li".

Of course, if he was a particularly powerful general, he might be able to turn the tide of the battle, but Li Yan knew that he was not.

He is relatively weak in fighting. He can charge into battle. In terms of mobilizing troops, he has only fought downwind battles where the country was superior, such as the Tang Dynasty against Silla, and the Tang Dynasty against Tubo, which was tormented by the internal guards and was in constant civil strife.

But the corrupted Northern Army defeated the strong with the weak, and he was not sure.

Therefore, Li Yan hoped that a general who knew the troops within the Song army, such as Zhong Shidao, would lead the troops. If he could bring the Western army, even ten or twenty thousand elites would be great.

"It's a pity that we have to prepare for the worst. Xixia's national destiny is now critical and there is a crisis of national subjugation. At this time, it will be ruined and the soldiers will win. The Western Army may not be able to come back to help. After all, if Hengshan surrenders to others,

, the situation in the northwest is corrupt, which is also a big blow."

"If we rely solely on the Northern Army, Hebei will probably suffer countless casualties this time. Wang Jiying is dead and Li Qingchen is seriously ill. I wonder who the imperial court will send to guard Daming Mansion and take charge of Hebei's defense..."

"It's a pity that Gao Qiu's qualifications are too low. Otherwise, with him openly taking charge of the overall situation, I would be able to mobilize many more resources, and the battle situation would be promising!"

Li Yan thought hard, knowing that this battle was difficult, but he still had no intention of giving up.

In fact, as a rebel, he could just sit back and watch. What did the Liao Kingdom have to do with the Song Kingdom?

But there is a prerequisite for him to change dynasties, that is, not to be benefited by foreigners.

If there is no bottom line, then you can be ready to go, wait for the Jin people to go south, or simply lead the Jin people to go south in advance, witness the shame of Jingkang, and then come out to clean up the old rivers and mountains. This is the simplest rebel route, and it is said to be without difficulty.

.

But Li Yan couldn't accept that method, and by the same token, he couldn't accept the Khitans wreaking havoc in Hebei and killing the people.

Rebellion must also be carried out in an upright and upright manner, focusing on both the results and the process.

Of course, after setting the big policy, you still have to focus on the present.

Just when Li Yan was thinking about how to deal with a bad hand, the battle was already over.

Lu Junyi came back with a grimace on his face. Xiao Xiangwen of the Pishi Army could finally be reunited with his bird.

Others also walked over with smiles on their faces. Even Duan Jingzhu felt refreshed. He had just finished a last-ditch attack on a Liao Dog. He felt so smooth as never before in his life. He said in unison with the others: "

What my brother said is right, the Liao people are not terrible!"

Only Chai Jin was greatly touched.

One was fighting side by side with these incomparable heroes, which made him realize that the self-entertainment he used to do in the village was really ridiculous. The other was the tyranny of the Liao soldiers.

Although in Lin Erlang's mouth, it seemed that this kind of soldier was already bad, but after he personally tested it and compared it with his current layout of the village's guests, he immediately came to a very bad conclusion.

Chaijiazhuang will never be able to stop the Liao army from wreaking havoc...

So at this moment, all the alchemy books and iron certificates were forgotten. Chai came in and came to Li Yan, bowed his head and said: "Brother Lin, please save my Chai family!!"
