Chapter 46 Rebirth from ashes

When Zhao Ban learned that Yao Guang was alone and negotiated with Tu Pinbuxiao camp, he was extremely anxious. He sent someone to the army to inquire about Yao Meng. He learned that the messenger sent by Yao Guang was detained by Yao Meng. Zhao Ban knew that it was going to be a bad thing. Yao Meng was famous for his narrow-mindedness. Yao Guang took the initiative to negotiate without authorization, and he would definitely not save him. Zhao Ban thought about it and wrote a letter to send his confidant to Yang Hao.

Tu Pin Bu Xiao hated Yao Guang for disrespect for him, but he was more worried about his son's safety. He could humiliate Yao Guang, but dare not hurt him. Similarly, Yao Guang also saw that it would be of no benefit to him when he was fighting with Tu Pin Bu Xiao. Both sides gave in. Tu Pin Bu Xiao no longer pursued Yao Guang's rudeness. Yao Guang falsely claimed that he led the way to rescue Tu Pin Bu Xiao.

Tu Pin Bu Xiao made someone shave Yao Guang's head into the shape of a Khitan, put on him in Khitan costumes, and locked him on his waist with an iron lock, leading the way in front. Tu Pin Bu Xiao was eager to save people, and he believed that Yao Guang did not dare to cheat in his hands, so he drove the army to come northwest with confidence and boldness, and unknowingly walked into the Tang army's ambush circle. The main elite of the Xining Army was here, with a total force of 12,000, divided into three fronts. The commander-in-chief was Yang Hao, the commander-in-chief of the Northern Army, the commander-in-chief of the Western Army, and the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Army Yu Chongchong.

When Tu Pin Bu Xiao felt that it was not good to leave the capital, everything was too late. Wu Chizan led his army to cut off his retreat. Two thousand Tu Pin Bu Xiao soldiers were besieged.

Yang Hao did not rush to attack. He sent Xiong Lindai to persuade the surrender as the special envoy. He learned that he was in a desperate situation, so he pulled Yao Guang to the ground, stepped on his feet, and ordered the generals to fight to the end. Yao Guang shouted with pain: "Yelu Telaba is not allowed to die! Once you die, your tribe, slaves, cattle and sheep are all his, and your beautiful wife, concubines and children will also become his. It's ridiculous that you will never wake up until you die!"

Thunderpin Buxiao said angrily: "This is our Khitan business, what do you have to do with you Tang people?" Yao Guang sneered: "Since you don't accept my affection, you will kill me, and then fight to the death with the Iron Cavalry of the Tang Dynasty. I don't believe in two thousand to ten thousand, what is your chance of winning? When your body is pecked into bones by the goshawk, the people of the Yelu family can hold your wife and daughter and have fun."

Tu Pinbushi had an affair with the Yelu family, but this time he was in a desperate situation because of Yelu Tiela. All the generals were so excited by Yao Guang that they gritted their teeth. Tu Pinbushi saw through everyone's thoughts, threw the big flag on the ground, and said to everyone: "Yelu family is not benevolent and righteous, I will not work hard for him." As soon as this statement came out, no one opposed it.

Tu Pin Buxiao raised his foot, pulled the chain and pulled Yao Guang up and said, "You go to see your coach now, I am willing to sit down and talk to him." Yao Guang dusted off the dust on his body and said slowly, "Why don't Khan show sincerity and go to General Yang with me?" Tu Pin Buxiao lowered his head and thought for a moment, and snorted and laughed: "Just go, go, am I afraid of him?"

Yao Guang led Tu Pin Buxiao to the front of the Central Army camp, but accidentally met Yao Meng. Yao Guang turned a blind eye and walked straight in. Yao Meng sneered: "As a general of the Tang Dynasty, he was wearing Hu's clothes. Which family's rule is this?" Yao Guang retorted: "As a general of the Tang Dynasty, he is jealous of the talented people and jealous of the ability, fearing his way forward, and he doesn't know what the rule is." Yao Meng was furious when he heard this, and drew his sword to chop Yao Guang, which caused the misunderstanding of Tu Pin Buxiao's guards. Everyone drew their swords to meet them.

Yao Meng sneered, "Okay, no wonder it's so arrogant. It turns out that there are Tartars to support you." Zhang Lang walked out of the central army tent and said in his voice: "Master Yang, the commander of Fengzhou City Defense, please invite Kubing Khan." As he spoke, military music rang out. The guard of honor came out in line. Dozens of soldiers were dressed in bright armor, holding guns in their hands, hanging their knives on their waists, and carrying bows and arrows across their bodies, all of whom were full of energy.

Tu Pin Buxiao shouted and retreated to the guards. He was about to walk in, but was stopped by two guards and asked them to remove the sword. Tu Pin Buxiao's face suddenly turned black, and the guards were also indignant. Yao Guang advised: "This is the rule in the Tang army, please be sure to abide by it." Tu Pin Buxiao had no choice but to remove the sword and hand it over to the guards, and the servants had to unplug the sword and follow him.

Yang Hao and a group of generals were greeted by the central army tent. After shook hands with Tu Pin Buxiao, he asked, "Mr. Yang has no place to regret the Khitan friends. Why did you launch an army to attack?" Tu Pin Buxiao said stutteringly, "It is Yelu's show of his ability and fighting. We and the seven tribes do not want to be enemies with the Tang Dynasty." Yang Hao said, "The Yelu family is in a powerful and powerful military force to bully the weak. I have heard of it. Khan is willing to join forces with me to teach the Yelu family a lesson?" Tu Pin Buxiao lowered his head and said nothing.

Yang Hao said, "If Yelu's family cannot be punished, I am afraid that Khan will not have a better life in the future. If this is done, not only me will benefit, but Khan will also benefit." Tu Pin Buxiao said, "Please release the child, I am willing to obey." Yang Hao smiled and said, "Ling Gongzi is a real warrior on the grassland. This time he fell to his leg because of a small misunderstanding. I have asked a famous doctor to treat him and are now leaving to rest. If Khan is not relieved, he can take him back now." Tu Pin Buxiao said, "I am very relieved with the famous doctors in the Tang Dynasty. Tu Pin Buxiao is willing to follow the general and save the Khitan people."

After Tu Pin Buxiao led his army into Datongchuan, Yelu Tiela sent his confidants to secretly monitor him. On that day, the confidants sent back a secret letter, saying that Tu Pin Buxiao marched northwest of Datongchuan and wanted to fight a decisive battle with the main force of the Tang army. Yelu Tiela immediately ordered the army to destiny to destiny, not to reinforce Tu Pin Buxiao's troops, but to withdraw from the Tiande Army by taking advantage of the main force of the Tang army being attracted.

This was originally expected by Yang Hao. When Yelu Tiela's vanguard Yedu Datongchuan withdrew from the Tiande Army, Yang Hao found Tu Pin Buxiao and said to him: "You are an upright person, but unfortunately Yelu Tiela is a villain. I said before that he used you to attract me. He took the opportunity to escape, and now it can be seen that what I said is true." Tu Pin Buxiao was a little unbelievable at first. After sending someone to inquire, he found that he was indeed being used and was extremely resentful.

So he followed Yang Hao's plan to intimidate to Yelu Tiela, claiming that he was besieged by the main force of the Tang army and requested Yelu Tiela's troops to reinforce. Yelu Tiela first dragged and did not respond for a long time, and then replied that he was trapped by the Tang army and could not get out, so he asked Tu Pin Bu Xiao to try to break through. Tu Pin Bu Xiao was furious and agreed to join forces with Yang Hao's Yelu Tiela's troops.

After Yelu Tiela discovered that the Tu Pinbu troops were besieged, his troops were divided into three groups to withdraw at the same time. After both left and right sides successfully withdrew from the Tiande Army, he led his main force to cross the Datong River at night at the end of March. At this moment, the spring snow melted and the river water surged. He originally planned to cross the river in one day, but he did not want to delay two and a half days and one-fifth of them failed to cross the river. This delay gave Yang Hao sufficient preparation time. On the morning of March 29, the two cavalry of the Xining Army and the Tiedang Battalions suddenly reached the south bank of the Datong River. The three thousand Khitan guards who were crossing the river were caught off guard and fell into chaos.

Yelu Tiela's first reaction was to withdraw his troops quickly. He was unwilling to lose his life because his tail was clipped. However, when he saw that there were only more than 2,000 Tang army members, he immediately changed his mind and ordered the three thousand-person teams that had already crossed the Datong River to return to reinforce. The Datong River was not as turbulent as the waves, but there was also a two-mile wide river surface. It was not easy to swim without a boat or raft without a bare hands. Just when these three thousand people were chaoticly crossing the river.

The main forces of the Xining Army, the Tiger Camp, the Jinfeng Camp, the Tiedang Camp, the Xiaofeng Camp, the Jingqi Camp were from the northwest direction, the Weiyuan Camp, the Wutu Tribe, the Man Hei Tribe, and the Zhongyi Army were slammed from the northeast direction at the same time. The 20,000 troops were dispatched at the same time. This was the largest battle commanded by Yang Hao. The Xining Army came out in full swing, and the allies also tried their best. This was a battle that could only win but not lose.

The Datongchuan grassland instantly turned into a sea of ​​blood, and the grass where crisp tender grass buds had emerged was immediately stained with blood. Yelutela's troops were the main force of the Khitan, including the Five Thousand Tama Army, with great combat power. Because it was a battle against the water, the soldiers tried their best without mobilizing and fought very tenaciously.

Yang Hao stood on a soil mountain on the north bank of the Great Tongchuan River, quietly watching the soldiers as dense as ants fighting together. At this moment, there was no concept of individual people in his eyes. He saw a kind of "momentum", a kind of "force", "momentum" and "force" grew and grew, like a chess game, and the pattern was always new. Finally, Yang Hao understood everything in front of him. When everything under his feet gradually solidified, he pointed to the northwest direction and said to Yu Yanlu: "Take your people in there, the faster the interweaving, the better. Don't be afraid of death, don't be in love with the fight, rush to the river in one breath and divide the Khitans into two. We will win this battle." Yu Yanlu turned around without saying a word and shouted: "The reconnaissance team and the guard team stay, and the rest follow me!"

The Fire Camp was the last card in Yang Hao's hand, and it was the last straw that broke the camel's back. The situation on the battlefield was reversed sharply, and the failure of the Khitans was irreversible.

Yelu Tiela was already red in his eyes. Knowing that the situation was hopeless, he still refused to admit defeat. In his eyes, the lives of soldiers were not important, and the right and wrong were not important. What was important was to save their lives and turn defeat into victory. He made an extremely bold move: concentrating all the power that could still be controlled to launch a final charge towards Yang Hao. "Capture the king first to capture the thief" and "kill the snake and hit seven inches", which he learned from the Han people. This was his only chance to turn defeat into victory. Yelu Geba was ordered to act as a blade again. At this time, his seventeen disciples were left, and they were surrounded by Yelu Tiela, as if a sharp knife stabbed at the Tushan Mountain.

Yang Hao had a guard, a reconnaissance team and thirty guards in Neijifang. They did not have any advantage in terms of number of people, and the enemy was the superior in combat power. Zhang Lang and Li Wei became nervous and advised Yang Hao to avoid the limelight for the time being. Yang Hao scolded: "Doesn't talk nonsense, the soldiers have not retreated, how can the commander retreat first?" Yang Hao was not showing off his strength, but his reputation was because the situation on the battlefield forced him to leave. He was like that military flag, which was the support for thousands of soldiers to fight to the end.

He took the bow in his hand, shot three Khitan cavalry in a row, and Yelu pulled his hand back and shot Yang Hao with an arrow. The arrow flew past his ears. A blood mark was scratched on Yang Hao's cheek, and it hurt a little, and the blood flowed down.

Zhang Lang and Li Wei dragged Yang Hao away, but Yang Hao tried hard to get rid of it. He picked up the crossbow and shot two Khitan soldiers, then raised a spear and went up to meet them. The soldiers of the Fire Camp reconnaissance team and the guards had been completely lost, and there were only a dozen guards in the Nei Temple. Everyone saw that Yang Hao was fighting to the death and his morale was rising. On the slope facing south of the landbag, the commanders of the two sides fought rarely face to face.

Yelu Tila used a scimitar, and Yang Hao used a scimitar. One inch long and one inch long. In front of a scimitar, Yelu Tila's scimitar could not take any advantage, but his skillful sword skills were so it was not easy for Yang Hao to kill him. Yang Hao knocked him over with a spear, and Yelu Tila got up, and Yang Hao knocked him over again, and he got up again.

When Yang Hao and Yelu Tiela fought weapons, the only remaining soldiers from Nei Sifang launched a round of shooting with Yelu Geba and others, only twenty or thirty steps apart. The accuracy of the arrow was no longer the first priority. Whoever made the arrow faster was the winner. Obviously, Yelu Geba and his disciples were much faster than Zhang Lang and others, but Zhang Lang and others were exposed to the light of a new type of crossbow. There was an arrow box on the side of this crossbow, which could be equipped with five crossbow arrows at one time and shot continuously.

Advanced weapons effectively make up for the lack of skills, but the disadvantage of numbers cannot be changed by advanced weapons. Zhang Lang and Li Wei had only a dozen people on their side, but more than forty opponents. After a round of shooting, the Tang army lost all the losses, while the Khitans lay down nearly thirty people.

At the foot of Tushan, the battle on the south bank had ended, and three thousand Khitan defenders were wiped out. The failure of the Khitans on the north bank was also foregone conclusion, but on Tushan, the commander of the Tang army was surrounded by more than a dozen Khitans and was struggling to survive.

This is really a great irony.

Yelu Geba finally realized that his commander was no match for the enemy general. Seeing the massacres in piles of slaughtered at the foot of the mountain, he no longer cared about any rules. He secretly drew out a feather arrow and wanted to shoot it. Suddenly, a golden light flashed in front of him, and a golden feather arrow shot his bow. The force of the arrow did not diminish at all, and another disciple standing behind him was shot.

A red horse suddenly rushed up from the northwest corner of the earth bun, and immediately became a heroic female general in red robe.

"Sui Yuan!" Yang Hao was so excited that he almost cried out. It was great to see her in such an occasion.

Sui Yuan is very beautiful, but her character with a horse and a knife is discouraged by many men. Yang Hao doesn't like girls with this personality. He has almost become friends with Sui Wohu, but he has never said a few words to Sui Yuan so far.

Sui Yuan's move was like lightning, and his archery technique was extremely accurate. He cleanly killed the famous "Three Masters of Youzhou" in the face-to-face shooting. The Khitans were frightened. At this moment, Yang Hao roared and threw the gun and smashed Yelu Tiela's scimitar, pressing the tip of the red tassel gun on the throat of the Khitan leader.
