Chapter 482: A Prophecy(1/2)



Yao Xing soon brought Jie Fanjun back to the formation.

Under Liu Qi's command, after the Jiefan army rushed back and forth several times, the coalition forces had no established army anymore.

The next step is simple.

The surrounded coalition was soon squeezed into a group by the Liangshan army and then massacred by the Liangshan army.

The coalition forces outside the encirclement tried to approach the encirclement to rescue the coalition forces in the encirclement, but they could not pass the Tiefutu level at all, and they had to beware of being killed by Tiefutu.

The coalition forces in the encirclement soon died in pieces, with corpses everywhere and blood flowing into rivers.

Of course, the coalition forces within the encirclement have also organized several counterattacks to break through the siege.

pity!

Their counterattacks were all disintegrated by the Liangshan Army.

The massacre continues...

Liu Qi never gave the coalition forces a chance to surrender. It was not until the surrounded coalition forces were killed to the point where less than 20,000 people were left, and all of them were killed to collapse. Liu Qi ordered the surrender to stop.

Ruan Xiaoqi and the five hundred men appeared on the battlefield again, and then shouted in Chinese, Khitan, Xi, Bohai, and Mongolian one by one: "Kneel on the ground and don't kill!", "Kneel on the ground and don't kill!", "Kneel on the ground and don't kill!", "Kneel on the ground and don't kill!", "Kneel on the ground and don't kill!"...

Under the atmosphere of this massacre, there are too few people who have no courage to surrender. Even warriors like Wu Yan Guang, Alic, and Qiong Yao Nayan were killed so hard that they knelt on the ground to pray for surrender.

As for those who refused to surrender, or who were frightened and could not react to surrender, the Liangshan army helped them all and stabbed them to death one by one.

...

As soon as the coalition was defeated, the Qiyan tribe, who was fighting bloody battles with the Bohai Army and the Xi Army, and the Liao army, who were fighting with the Khitan Army, immediately fled the battlefield.

...

The coalition soldiers outside the encirclement that had been driven away by Tiefutu for a long time were prepared to retreat when they saw that the situation was hopeless.

But at this moment, the various military and horse camps that had been resting for a long time suddenly rose up under the leadership of Yue Fei, and then went to cover up and kill the coalition forces outside the encirclement!

Seeing this, the coalition forces outside the encirclement immediately fled towards the Tiande Army.

However, the coalition soldiers and the war horses under their crotch outside the encirclement were consumed by Tiefutu!

However, the various military and horse camps have been replenishing their energy for a long time.

As one goes up and down, the various military and horse camps bit behind the coalition forces outside the encirclement and killed them all the way, causing great casualties to the coalition forces outside the encirclement.

...

Emperor Tianzuo, his confidants and his confidants had actually sneaked out of the battlefield with the golden trick of escaping.

Seeing that the coalition forces were defeated by the Liangshan army from afar, and more than half of the enemies were wiped out, Emperor Tianzuo was both heartbroken, and immediately extinguished the idea of ​​seeking revenge on Li Yan, and then decisively ordered: "Retreat!"

Because of the decisive withdrawal, and the fact that Emperor Tianzuo and others were all one with two horses or one with more horses, the cover of the horse camps of each army did not affect Emperor Tianzuo at all.

It is exactly the saying that those who are good at reason will not teach, those who are good at teaching will not preach, those who are good at teaching will not fight, those who are good at fighting will not defeat, and those who are good at defeat will not perish.

Although Emperor Tianzuo was not good at fighting, it was definitely not easy to kill him or capture him.

Sudden!

The sound of galloping horses appearing in front of Emperor Tianzuo!

Emperor Tianzuo was shocked!

Then he made a quick decision, leaving half of the people behind, and then led the others to the desert.

Which army is coming?

It was the first battalion that was preparing to detour at the beginning of the war and used the thousand-year-old killing.

Speaking of which, the most aggrieved person in the Liangshan army in this battle was undoubtedly the First Battalion.

At the beginning of the war, whether it was Li Yan, Liu Qi, or others, they all had great expectations for the First Battalion, hoping that they could play a role in determining the outcome.

But the first battalion first encountered the trapped horse pit formation, and then encountered Badou under the coalition forces.

When the First Battalion changed its tactics and retreated to attack the right wing of the coalition forces, three or four hours had passed, and most of their war horses could not fight again because of mistakenly ingesting Croton.

When the first battalion finds the enemy, the outcome of the main battlefield has been decided.

The first battalion could only pick up a few strands of defeated troops to kill them.

This made all the soldiers of the First Battalion, who were highly regarded, hold up a wave of evil fire and want to catch a big fish.

Finally, the first battalion saw a large number of enemy troops.

All the soldiers of the first battalion rushed forward with blood-red eyes.

But the army's fighting will was extremely weak, and it was defeated with one blow, but it turned around and fled into the desert.

By interrogating the prisoners, Yang Zaixing and others learned that this army was actually Emperor Tianzuo's personal army, and Emperor Tianzuo had fled into the desert.

After learning about this, the first battalion quickly chased into the desert.

The first battalion blocked the killing and hunted Emperor Tianzuo for more than ten days. In the end, Emperor Tianzuo led less than 500 troops to escape from the desert.

...

Post-war statistics:

In this battle, at least 60,000 people were killed or injured on one side of the coalition, and more than 18,000 were captured.

The Liangshan Army seized nearly 30,000 good horses, 70,000 injured horses and 80,000 dead horses, countless soldiers and armor, and more than 100,000 cattle and sheep each.

The Liangshan Army itself suffered only more than 10,000 casualties.

In other words, the Liangshan Army achieved an unprecedented victory.

After that, no matter whether it was the remnants of the Liao Kingdom, the Western Xia army, or the Mongolian tribes, they did not dare to step into Yunxi again when the Liangshan army was guarding Yundi.

Moreover, the terror about the Liangshan Army has been spreading westward...

...

Zhong Shidao retreated on the third day of June and was chased by the Liao army. Ma Kuo had already returned to Xiongzhou by then. He returned to Xiongzhou on May 30th.

On May 27, Ma Kuo and Northern Liao envoy Wang Jieru and others left Yanjing and returned to Xiongzhou.

On the way, Xiao Gan sent Yelu Dashi to intercept Ma Kuo.

As soon as he saw Ma Kuo, Yelu Dashi asked: "We have been in harmony for more than a hundred years. Why did your Song State raise troops to invade the land of our Liao Kingdom?"

Ma Kuo said: "A few years ago, the Jurchens sent people from the sea to our country many times, saying that they would give Yan land to our country. Our governments always answered them in gentle words and perfunctory ways. Recently, our country received a certificate from the Jurchens, saying that they had occupied Shangjing, Tokyo, and Zhongjing. If our country did not want Yan land, they would conquer themselves. Our government had no choice but to send troops to rescue the people in Yan land."

After hearing this, Yelu Dashi said angrily: "The State of Xia has submitted a letter to our country many times, asking our country to send troops to attack your Song State. Every time my country seals the letter and sends people to you Song State. I will never forget my righteousness when I see profit and believe in spies. However, the country has just received a letter from the Jurchens and then brought in an attack. What is this?"

Ma Kuo said: "Although the Xia Kingdom has spoken badly many times, how could it have plundered an inch of our country's land in decades? The Jurchens are different. What the Jurchens said have been fulfilled. Their sending troops is not only to save the people of Yan, but also to defend our country's borders."

Yelu Dashi saw Ma Kuo who was able to argue and argue for a while and said, "Because the two countries have reconciled, I will not be difficult for you. You can go back after dinner, but you have to bring me a message to Tong Guan: If you want to be harmonious, you will be harmonious, but if you don't want to be harmonious, please send troops to the formation."

It can be said that Yelu Dashi had actually had the idea of ​​a decisive battle with the Song army at that time.

Ma Kuo never knew that Yang Keshi was ambushed by Yelu Dashi in Langoudian, Zhong Shidao was attacked by Yelu Dashi in Baigou River, and Xin Xingzong was attacked by Xiao Gan in Fan Village.

It was not until after returning to Xiongzhou that Ma Kuo heard about these things.

Based on these three battles, the subordinates of the Xuanfu Department inferred that the Liao army was still very strong and difficult to capture, so they retreated.

Ma Kuo feels very sorry!

If these defeats did not occur, the Northern Liao Dynasty would likely become their vassal of the Song Dynasty.

Now, this can only be a delusion.

really!

Xuanfusi's Office no longer appointed Northern Liao as a vassal, and then brought shame to himself.

Liu Li, Jia Ping, Wang Lin, Li Zongzhen and other officials from the Xuanfu Department brought gold and jade tea sets to the inn to visit Wang Jieru and others, accompanied by Ma Kuo.

Liu Li told Wang Jieru: "The Xuanfu Department has reported the situation to the court, and hopes that the relationship between the two countries will still be the same as before, but it has not been approved by the court yet."

Wang Jieru's attitude also changed. He never mentioned the issue of calling a vassal, but said a little tough: "If your country really wants to send troops to attack Yanjing, our army will definitely fight to the death, and then the people of both places will be in trouble."

Wang Jieru's deputy Wang Zhongsun said: "We have a proverb in Yanjing: One horse is not prepared for two saddles, and one daughter does not marry two husbands. Being a minister cannot serve two masters. How can the scholars and officials in Yanjing do not have such a concept?"

Ma Kuo laughed and said, "In this way, the Yan people first marry the Khitan, and they may remarry the Jurchens in the future."

Wang Jieru and Wang Zhongsun were speechless.

Two days later, Wang Jieru and Wang Zhongsun paid a visit to Tong Guan as guests.

Wang Jieru said to Tong Guan: "The Jurchens betrayal of their country will not only harm their own regime, but also a harm to the Song Dynasty. Now, if your country abandons a hundred years of good fortune in order to seek temporary benefits, and lays down disasters in the future, and thinks that it is a plan for others. It is unwise to save disasters and care for neighbors, and to be a common sense in ancient and modern times, I hope your country can think about it carefully!"

Tong Guan was silent.

On June 6, Tong Guan received a letter from Zhao Ji, asking him to write a reply letter to Yelu Chun in the name of Xuanfusi, and asked Wang Jieru and others to return to the country.

After Tong Guan finished writing the reply, he ordered Ma Kuo to lead the cavalry to escort Wang Jieru and others to the rivers of the two countries.

...

The news that the Song army defeated Baigou and the fact that Li Yan defeated the Liao, Xixia and Mongolian coalition forces had long been circulated in Tokyo.
