Chapter 411 The Jagged Road (11)

"Ao!" Song Jiu shouted, took the banner from Wang Bin, and stood motionless wherever he was.

The rain has stopped.

But the wind has not stopped.

In the night wind, the flags were stained with blood and mud, making a sound of rushing.

Yang Ye said: "Donald Song, let's fight to the right."

On the right side were Liu Zhixin's subordinates. Song Jiu attracted almost 80% of the main forces of the Liao Kingdom. His troops were too weak and he could no longer divide his troops into a fan shape. Only by meeting with Liu Zhixin would he be stronger.

Li Jixuan and Yang Yanzhao returned with panting. They were tired of killing, and Yelu Xiuge and others were exhausted from killing. They stood on the high slope while panting while commanding. Anyway, with these two madmen here, he would not succeed if he wanted to use the strategy of capturing the thief first.

Li Jixuan said, "Mr. Song, ride my horse."

"Okay." Song Jiu was not pretentious. He was injured, and Li Jixuan was injured, but if something happened to him, the entire army would lose its soul.

Yang Yanzhao was on the horse, and Li Jixuan continued to protect Song Jiu and rushed to the right. Song Jiu suddenly asked, "General Yang, where is Yanpu."

Yang Ye was silent and didn't say anything.

Song Jiu didn't ask much, no need to ask, Yang Yanpu also died here.

He suddenly shouted, "Kill."

I don’t know who to kill, but I just shouted tragically.

The Song army rushed to the right fiercely. Under the fierce battle of the Song army, the two men finally successfully met again, but the situation was still not good. Until now, Liu Zhixin's casualties were even worse, and almost half of them fell down.

Fan Yanzhao looked around while fighting, suddenly rode his horse back and said, "Mr. Song, look behind him."

Song Jiu turned his head and looked behind him. Yelu Xiu Ge was determined to want Song Jiu's life and transferred the main force over. The pressure behind him became even lighter. Tian Shi and the others took the opportunity to improve the three or four-mile defense fortifications and gathered many soldiers. Further away, some soldiers and civilians gathered in this defense circle.

Fan Yanzhao said, "Although Mr. Song led him to be angry, the soldiers were exhausted, and their strength might not last long. We have a lot of baggage and weapons behind us, so let's retreat to defend."

Song Jiu thought about it and said that this was not the time to present a hero, so he nodded in agreement.

The Song army went back and killed.

Yelu Xiuge was anxious and issued orders with the flag, asking the army to surround the Song army layer by layer.

Seeing that the situation was critical, Shi Gui and Tian Shaobin said at the same time: "General Fu, you come and take charge of the defense. Let's go and rescue Mr. Song."

"Okay," compared to others. Fu Zhaoshou performed the worst. Until now, his legs are still trembling.

Tian Shi and his men led their subordinates to kill them out.

Song Jiu did not expect the changes in the rear. His fierce fighting in the front did not allow many soldiers from the rear to flee to Henan. On the contrary, more and more soldiers and civilians gathered here.

Therefore, the second general's troops became more and more powerful. The two led almost more than 10,000 soldiers to kill them.

Song Jiu killed in front, and the fortifications behind were gradually laid out. Many people were at ease and noticed the tragic battle ahead. Some soldiers were afraid of death, but this Song army was even less fierce. Under the touching, more than 10,000 soldiers rushed over without any chance.

A battle, from planning to end, may last for months or even years.

But when there is a real battle, the winner is often decided in just a few hours.

And the casualties were not the most serious during the battle. Why did the Song and Liao battle later and killing 10,000 Liao troops was a great victory, but once the Song army suffered a large number of casualties, it was also very fast.

The real casualties are in the pursuit.

However, this battle was very bad, and it was a normal battle. The casualties were on the periphery, and the casualties in the formation would not be too severe. Of course, it was hard to say that it would lose the formation when retreating. But in this battle, the Liao army had a large number, almost penetrated all the formations of the Song army, and the combat circle was expanded to Song Jiu.

If Song Jiu hadn't inspired morale and made this army a desperate person, he would have been wiped out long ago.

Song Jiu fought for more than two hours, winning precious time for the rear, but in this battle, more than half of the casualties were killed or killed, but the Liao army was not very good, with countless casualties.

Seeing that more than 10,000 troops rushed up the Song army, the result was obviously what Yelu Xiu Ge didn't want. In addition, his vision was unclear in the night, and he was worried that Song Jiu's desperate fighting style would improve his morale. His subordinates gradually became tired, and perhaps a miracle would happen, causing the Song army to turn defeat into victory. So Yelu Xiu Ge ordered the three armies to retreat, rest for a while, and fight again tomorrow morning.

Song Jiu returned to the fortification with a trunk expression.

He has been to the front line many times, Guankouzhai, Nanhan, Jiaozhi, Taiyuan, Zhuozhou, and Liaodong, but he has never seen such a fierce battle. Countless familiar people lie together in the distance in the night, their loyal hometown died, the beloved Wang Zheng died, and the big black died...

At this time, his head was empty, as if he had lost his soul.

Shi Gui said, "Duke Song, hurry up and heal your wounds."

Fan Yanzhao said, "Duke Song, please command."

Through two short sentences, you can see the character of the two, but Shi Gui also made contributions to this battle.

Song Jiu woke up only then.

He looked at the dark crowd and said, "I am Song Jiu."

At this time, his whole body was covered with blood and mud, so he wiped away the stains on his face with his hands.

More than one hundred thousand soldiers and civilians cheered.

With Song Jiu here, there will be a coach here, and Song Jiu's bravery and tenacity also gave them a backbone.

Song Jiu looked at it and said, "Whose idea is this? It's very good."

"This is my idea with General Shi."

"General Fan, General Shi, I am deeply grateful," Song Jiu gave a big gift. Although Fan Yanzhao changed his original plan, he did it right.

"I dare not take it."

"I thank you for more than 100,000 soldiers and civilians. I am not thinking well. If it weren't for you, the situation of more than 100,000 soldiers and civilians would be even more worrying." Although Song Jiu did not know the problems that Shi Gui had encountered at the beginning, he vaguely guessed that in that case, even if the three armies were not stable, even if they were built a floating bridge, they might not work. He also said: "This method is good, count the number of people."

Soon, the numbers were counted, and there were more than 51,000 imprisonments. Some Song troops who fled to all directions saw the Song army gathering again and returned, but they were still in danger. No one dared to say how many imprisonments could go back in the end. There were more than 37,000 township soldiers, archers, and more than 39,000 civilians.

Cai Yu escaped, Cao Bin escaped, Mi Xin escaped, Cui Yanjin escaped, Du Yangui escaped. Zhao Yanpu escaped, Zhang Shaojie escaped, Dong Yuan escaped, Cao Mei escaped, Li Yanbin escaped, and Fu absconded...

Not everyone is afraid of death. Especially when Cao Bin escapes, everyone has no choice but to run away. For example, if Fan Yanzhao doesn't see Song Jiu fighting desperately, he may also run away. Stay and wait for death.

Guo Shouwen was good. He just escaped to the other side of the Juma River by chance and turned around and saw that something was wrong in Hebei. After thinking about it, he sneaked back to Hebei again and returned to the army when Tian Shaobin and Shi Gui were aiding Song Jiu.

These people took some of the Song army away.

However, the rest of the people were either killed or captured by the Liao army or drowned in the Juma River.

This number will not be less than 100,000 people.

Song Jiu's face was gloomy. Although he had a good side, almost all the soldiers now followed Song Jiu's horses and would be consistent and no longer confused, but there were more bad side, with low morale and lack of soldiers. The Liao army was coming continuously, with more and more troops, and there was a Jima River blocking him in front, and he was in danger...

Song Jiu began to issue an order: "Fu Zhaoshou. You will take five thousand civilians and immediately pull out all the wood from the Qigou Pass military camp and build a floating bridge. You can do as much as you can. Hold my order. If you don't have my order, anyone who crosses the bridge will be killed."

He had already obtained the emotional question that had just happened from Shi Gui.

"Here."

"General Shi, you will take the remaining civilians to build a few more fortifications. If you don't have a car and use grain bags to make a wall, how many can you build it, just a few can you build it."

"Here."

"General Guo, General Yang, General Fan, you will divide the army into four left and right central high-level generals. General Guo is the main general of the left, General Shi is the deputy general of the left, General Yang is the chief general of the middle, Yang Yanzhao is the deputy general of the middle, General Fan is the chief general of the right, General Tian is the deputy general of the right, General Liu is the chief general of the forward, Li Jixuan is the deputy general and vanguard officer, and call General the deputy vanguard officer. Fu Zhaoshou, you will follow us to take charge of the central army and maintain the order when the military and civilian retreat."

"Here."

"The commanders of each battalion are still in charge of each battalion. If there is no commander who has fewer troops, or if they serve as deputy commanders and heads, they will divide their respective battalions and heal their wounds in time. The remaining ones are divided into three, one is alert, and the two are taken turns to rest."

"Here."

听罢,有的民夫叫苦.

Song Jiu said again: "Another order is sent, we are soldiers, and the responsibility of soldiers is to defend the country. It has nothing to do with the people. After the floating bridge is built, the civilians will retreat first."

"Here."

符昭寿道:“九郎,你的伤.”

Seeing that the situation slowed down, Song Jiu also ordered the doctor to come over to heal his wounds.

In fact, on the battlefield, he was protected by soldiers on all sides, but Yelu Xiuge recognized him as the attack, causing several flag bearers to fall. Song Jiu all carried heavy swords and slashed several Liao soldiers, which was thus injured several times. When the armor was taken off, there were arrows, knife wounds, gunshot wounds, and as many as dozens of wounds of all sizes.

The doctor plucked the arrow and wiped the alcohol to disinfect the wound. The pain made Song Jiu grin and rode his teeth, but it hurt even deeper inside.

It was dawn, ten floating bridges were built on the Juma River, and three simple fortifications were also set up. Song Jiu said: "Fu Zhaoshou, immediately lead all the civilians and the seriously injured soldiers, each with bows, arrows, swords and guns, three days of dry food, bring seriously injured soldiers, advance lightly, and quickly retreat to Xiongzhou."

"ah."

"Human life is at stake. This is more than 40,000 lives, which is more important than the battlefield. Go quickly."

In fact, Fu Zhaoshou's ability is limited, but if these people want to withdraw, one person must be able to suppress the place, otherwise once they retreat to Henan, there will be chaos. Fu Zhaoshou's battle is not good, but he is the national uncle and his identity can shock the people.

Fu Zhaoshou reluctantly arranged for the civilians to retreat.

However, at this moment, the Liao army, who had received rest, rushed over again.

Although the Song army took turns to rest at this time, the environment was harsh and there was no good rest at all. There were three fortifications, but this low simple fortification was not a city wall.

The situation is still very bad.
