Chapter 896

Yelu Jinping was very worried at this moment. As a famous general of the Liao Kingdom, he was unable to become the head coach after His Highness the Prince was deprived of his position of command. Instead, he watched Xiao Shen, who was much younger than him, become the head coach of the army.

This made him feel very unbeautiful, but Xiao Shen was very good at being a human being, at least he was very polite to him. However, his next actions made Yelu Jinping very uncomfortable, that is, Xiao Shen decided to lead the army south.

But he threw the mess to himself. Think about it, although the coalition forces left behind in Youzhou City claim to be 100,000, but in fact there are only 80,000.

But there was still a considerable number of these 80,000 people, that is, 20,000 wounded soldiers lying there and being unable to fight.

This made Yelu Jinping very dissatisfied and expressed opposition many times. But in the end, he had to accept his fate. After all, Xiao Shen was the head commander of the first army.

Xiao Shen gave him the military order that, no matter what, make good use of these 80,000 troops, the Song army in the city will have the opportunity to leave the city and harass the army's retreat.

After Xiao Shen led the army to leave, Yelu Jinping thought for a long time and decided to take the initiative to attack, continue to maintain his offensive towards Youzhou City, and maintain certain pressure on the defenders in the city. Only in this way can the defenders in the city have difficulty having the opportunity to attack.

If Yelu Jinping's opponent was other Song army generals, or if the opponent was just a defender in one city, his move would indeed be very effective.

But the problem is that he was facing the veteran driver Wang Yang, the governor of the Three Prefectures. He controlled not only Yuzhou, but also tens of thousands of soldiers and horses roaming the Three Prefectures were controlled by him.

However, this elite Song army, with a total of 50,000, was currently wandering outside the guards outside the city of Youzhou.

However, even though Yelu Jinping was very annoyed Xiao Shen, he still did everything an excellent general should do. Among the 20,000 wounded soldiers, except for about 5,000 disabled soldiers who could not move, the remaining 15,000 were distributed in the other three gates. In this way, the number of Liao troops outside each city gate was 20,000.

If the entire Song army gathers one gate to abandon the city and attack, relying on the wall of the camp to defend the enemy, it will be able to support the reinforcements of the other three gates.

However, as a general, he should have commanded thousands of troops to mount the battlefield, but now he has been continually besieged to continue to siege this city that seems to never see hope of falling.

The collision between the Liaoxia coalition and the Song Hu Ben in the ancient city of Wuyan almost all the eyes of the world gathered here. Even the Song emperor who was far away in the capital Bianliang, or the Liao emperor who was far away in the northern Liao Kingdom Shangjing, were unable to sleep or eat every day...

Compared with the Liao army that took the initiative to attack, although the Song army was passively responding to the battle, with the support of the Wuyan ancient city and the strong morale, they blocked the Liao army with superior troops in the Wuyan ancient city without any inch.

At this time, Han Zhongqiu finally suppressed the abnormal movements of the Liao army on Hedong Road, and he tried hard to draw 50,000 elite troops to send troops to Linzhou. The troops pointed directly at the Zuoxiang Shenwang Army Office, restraining the troops commanded by Xiao Wuna and the troops of the Zuoxiang Shenwang Army Office.

In the south, Renduo Zongbao's arrival eventually forced the Song army, who originally wanted to take advantage of the situation to take over Shizhou, to retreat to Yinzhou. However, Renduo Zongbao had no extra troops to go south to resolve the danger of Longzhou.

At this moment, the entire battle situation formed a stalemate similar to a calm but undercurrent. No one knew whether it was the Liaoxia coalition that first found a breakthrough, or the Song army that first found the flaws of the Liaoxia coalition, breaking the suppression and affecting the battle situation that all the most powerful countries in the continent were all mentally balanced.

"Sir Su has been fighting with the Liaoxia coalition forces for several days under the ancient city of Wuyan. Although he has blocked the Liaoxia coalition forces tightly, he is on the defensive after all, and the opponent's troops are stronger than ours. If he continues like this, he will be worried..."

"Defending for a long time, not to mention that the Liao army is eager to make achievements, and its military strength is stronger than our army..." Wang Yang tightened his eyebrows and slowly said this classic saying. Of course, this sentence only applies to ordinary people, not to strong city walls like Yuzhou.

"However, Yelu Jinping outside the city is also cunning and harassing our army day and night. On the one hand, it makes it difficult for us to understand its reality, and on the other hand, it makes our army tired and has no room to organize enough troops to attack the city."

"So... the only thing that is today is to prepare for General Zhong Shidao and General Zhe Keshi to go out..." Wang Yang clapped his hands, signaling that Zhu Wenwu in the hall to calm down, and then expressed his thoughts in a deep voice.

"Will this be too early?" Zhong Shihe was a little hesitant.

"It's getting late. Although Mr. Su blocked the Liao and Xia coalition, our army's strength was too inferior to that of the opponents. We cannot let the momentum of our Song Dynasty lose its power. After all, it took a lot of effort to boost our courage and morale. We cannot just disperse."

"Starting from midnight tonight, conduct attack exercises as planned..."

"My generals, I hope you remember that this attack is not an attack. You must not act rashly without authorization, otherwise, don't blame this official for his ruthless military law."

The generals stood up with a strange expression and began to prepare. The Xixia people once again launched a wave of offensives after dusk. After nearly two quarters of an hour, the tired siegemen finally retreated exhausted.

However, just when Yelu Jinping ordered the troops to withdraw his troops and returned to the camp and was about to have a good sleep, he suddenly heard the sound of war drums coming from the direction of Youzhou City, which should have been quiet.

He was shocked in an instant, and he stood up in a hurry, ordered his personal soldiers to put on armor, and ordered the soldiers to leave the camp...

Soon, Yelu Jinping, who had finished wearing it, rushed to the village wall and saw that the gate of the Wengcheng City, which had been closed for more than a month, had already opened. Accompanied by the sound of war drums, the Song army with torches began to line up along the city wall.

Yelu Jinping's heart couldn't help but sank, and immediately ordered the soldiers to prepare for the battle, send a signal to ask other troops to come and help.

At this moment, Yelu Jinping suddenly heard a signal that his camp had encountered an enemy from the north and south.

"What's going on? Are the Song people crazy? The three gates attacked. Do he really think that the 80,000 troops in the Great Liao Dynasty were just made of paper and mud?" Yelu Jinping was almost madly angry by the boldness of the Song army.

But at this moment, there were still a group of Song troops in the city in the urn, with a number of at least over 10,000. In addition to cursing in his heart, Yelu Jinping needed to remain calm and send people to send troops to strictly guard the battalions and not to rush for help indiscriminately.

Just after the Song army began to leave the city, about two incense sticks, the torches that were originally held high were almost completely extinguished.
