"Dongdongdongdongdong..." The war drum beat.

"Woooooooo..." The horn blew.

Flags were flying, war horses were galloping, and teams of Liao troops leaned against Jiaolaihe and began to line up.

At the center of the battle formation, dozens of carriages were lined up, with thick wooden boards on them, serving as temporary command platforms. With the support of his entourage, Yelu Mage rushed to the central army and rode his horse onto the platform.

The weather is good today, with clear sky and blue sky. The air after the rain is particularly fresh, and the gusts of river breeze spread the coolness of late autumn all over the grassland.

The big flags dance wildly in the wind, roaring and magnificent.

Yelu Ma Ge looked around and saw that the army was neat and the battle formation was tight. The soldiers were full of morale and were ready to wait. A fierce murderous aura gushed up and filled the entire battlefield. Yelu Ma Ge nodded slightly, his frown gradually stretched out, and a reserved smile slowly appeared on his cold face.

This battle will be fought sooner or later. Even if I cross the river and return to the capital of Shangjing, I will still gather troops and rebels before the heavy snow comes. The Jin army will fight decisively in Longhua City. However, Li Hu, Nianhan and Jin Wushu are more anxious than me. They pursued themselves in the Bison Field regardless of the bad weather. Okay, since you are impatient, I will fulfill your wishes and fight in the Bison Field. However, this battle is probably not as easy as you imagined. I am not an old wolf, but a tiger. Since you little wolf insist on stroking the tiger's beard, let's try it. If you are lucky enough, you may still be able to escape.

Generals from various armies came one after another.

What should be said long ago in the military discussion, so Yelu Ma Ge just re-produced the old tune and reminded his subordinates again that this battle not only concerns the safety of Shangjing Road, but also the rise and fall of the great Liao Kingdom, and cannot be lost.

This is very serious, and some people disagree. In recent years, the Liao and Jin wars have lost more than the winners and lost Tokyo Road, but the Great Liao is vast, with a large population and a large army. It still has an absolute advantage. Everyone, including the Jurchens, knows that when the emperor of the Liao Kingdom is clear-headed, the national policy is correct, and the capable ministers and talents are on the throne, the Jurchens are rampant. Although Tokyo Road is not small, it is poor, but the mountain is poor, with a small population and a small amount of money. It is a dream for the Jurchens to compete with the Khitans.

Therefore, the outcome of this battle is not as serious as Yelu Mage said. If you lose, the emperor will send troops to fight. Anyway, the Liao Dynasty has enough troops, enough financial resources, and fearless. Because of this, many generals have opposed the decisive battle. They can cross the river and block it. Is it necessary to take a decisive battle when they are exhausted and have poor food and grass? It is okay to win. If you lose, from Yelu Mage to the generals of the army, there will be no good results. When the foolish emperor is excited, he may be beheaded. If he does this, it is better to retreat as much as possible. It is said that he will break out of the siege. Maybe he will have any contribution.

But Yelu Mage had the confidence and reason to win this battle.

The rebels and the Jin army first rushed for more than 300 miles to fight Longhua and forcibly attacked the city. They conquered the city within a few days. The great losses can be imagined. Then they ran more than 100 miles to fight Yeluqi's reinforcements in Guangpingdian. It was also a bloody battle, and there was no advantage to take. Then they rushed for more than 300 miles without stopping, and surrounded the mountain city. They found that the main force of the Liao army in the mountain city retreated north, and chased after the head, and it was more than 300 miles. Think about it, how many people could persist in fighting and marching continuously? Even the iron-killed generals were about to fall, so these two pursuers were simply at the end of their strength and vulnerable.

This makes sense, and you can calculate it with your fingers. Such an army does not have much combat power.

More importantly, who in the end wants to defeat us in these two armies?

When Yelu Ma Ge said this, many people didn't understand. Who wants to defeat us? Of course they all thought about it. In fact, it was not the case that the rebels were all mobs. Before the Dashan Alliance, they were all bosses, with simple goals, easy to lead the army, and easy to fight. When they ran together, they were all bosses, and conflicts came. If you want to eat me, I want to take advantage of you, everyone wants to be bosses, and they all want to make a fortune, so they each have their own ulterior motives, and the battle is not easy to fight. Now, they have won several battles, burning, killing, and looting, and their pockets are full. Who wants to fight? Especially when the army can no longer support it, who wants to risk losing and accompany the Jin people to fight the strongest Liao army? No.

The Jurchens really want to defeat us are the Jurchens. After defeating us, they not only had hope of peace talks, but also could also severely damage the Liao Dynasty again. Therefore, the Jurchens were the first to catch up with us, and also occupied the big tent of the bison in front of us, plundering all the supplies and livestock, but they did not dare to launch an attack alone. Why? It's very simple, I can't hold on anymore, and I have to wait for the rebels to come and fight together.

The rebels were full and didn't want to fight anymore. The Jin army could not fight anymore. There was only one reason why these two armies caught up, that is, they were too underestimated and too self-righteous. They thought we were exhausted, and they were poor in food and grass, and their morale was dispersed, and they all wanted to come and get cheap. OK, just so, the wolf was in the mouth of the tiger, and I still couldn't find such an opportunity.

Yelu Mage commanded the army for many years. Before the Li Hongda Uprising broke out, he had no outstanding achievements, but since the Li Hongda Uprising, Liaodong has been in chaos. Han people, Jurchen people, Bohai people, Tieli people... Rebellions have been one after another, and Yelu Mage's talents have been developed immediately. He has done his best to make military achievements and become a powerful general. Such people say something that is worthy and convincing. Therefore, when he said it, the battle began.

Just as Yelu Mage was talking to his subordinates, a team of cavalry rushed out of the horizon in the distance, and then the loud horn sounded with the wind and the Jurchens came.

"Go back." Yelu Ma Ge waved the whip in his hand, with a calm expression and a firm look. "Remember, our target is the rebels. As long as we defeat the rebels, the Jurchens will be isolated and helpless, and they can only retreat in a hurry. At that time, our opportunity will come. In a few days, we will be able to regain Longhua and return to the mountain city, and reverse the unfavorable situation in front of us in one fell swoop."

The generals bowed to the teachings, had a hundred times more confidence, and they all left with their own horses.

The Jin army faced Jiaolaihe and set up a battle.

Nianhan, Jin Wushu, Wanyan Loushi, Ha Michichi, Shi Jianu and other Jurchen generals ran back and forth along the Liao army's battle formation several times, and then discussed the attack strategy.

The Liao army had 30,000 people, with the back of the river, and set up a yoke battle formation. The two wings were thick and the front formation was prominent. It was a formation that was both offensive and defensive. If you want to fight it, you could only break through the two wings. Since the Liao army had obviously more troops than the Jin army, if you attack one wing, you would inevitably be backfired. If you are not careful, you would be surrounded by the Liao army that changed the formation. So you had to wait for Li Hu to come, and the two armies attacked one wing and attacked left and right.

When they think of Li Hu, these people gritted their teeth. This Han captain cannot be described as cunning, but a completely despicable villain. It is hard for them to imagine how such a person would become the commander-in-chief of the rebel army? Is it just because his father is the famous god Li Hong?

Li Hu was lying and his face was still beating, and he said it as if it were true. He clearly did not block Yelu Mage, but lied that he had killed more than half of Yelu Mage's men and coaxed Nian Han and others to go around. Fortunately, he was not as shameless as he was treacherous as he was still treacherous, and he knew that he would use the force of the Jin people to attack Yelu Mage. If he tricked the Jin army to Yeniu Yuan and took the opportunity to attack Yizhou or withdraw Longhua City, the Jurchens would be so angry that they would hit the wall. If they cheated people to this point, they would not even want a way out. Will they still be able to mess around in the future?

Because he was worried that Li Hu would bluff, Chen Bing refused to move forward, and sat down the mountain to watch the tiger's fight, and then went down the mountain to pick up the cheap. Nian Han gritted his teeth and spent a lot of money to give him five hundred cows in one breath. He was just asking him to be generous and not to lie anymore. For their own interests, he would put his mind right and fight a good battle. He would benefit others and yourself without any harm.

"Where is Li Hu now?" Jin Wushu was most concerned about this. From Chengzhou to Yizhou, the Jurchens were repeatedly defeated by him. When they mentioned it, they felt guilty and feared that they would be fooled again.

"It will arrive soon." Wanyan Loushi said. His army was closest to Li Hu. The scouts on the outpost were staring at the rebels, for fear that Li Hu would slip away without a word. "It's not easy to fight today. Brother Yelu Ma's waved his two fists to hit people. There must be an internal force. If he hit Li Hu with a fatal punch, the Han army would flee or simply collapse, we had to give up the attack and retreat quickly." He turned to look at Nian Han, "When Li Hu comes later, be sure to remind him not to keep one move. If you want to fight, do your best to fight. Don't give Brother Yelu Ma's chance to counterattack."

"Remind him?" Nian Han shook his head, "Yelu Ma Ge will also think of things we can think of, and Li Hu's little fox is the most clear about his own affairs. How many of his men will listen to him? So don't count on it. As long as he can maintain the offensive and firmly hold the enemy on the left, we will be grateful."

"As long as Yelu Mage counterattacks Li Hu, we will launch a fatal blow to the Liao army." Jin Wushu immediately understood what Nianhan meant.

"Yes, as soon as Li Hu was defeated, the Liao army chased and the battle formation changed immediately. At this time, the Liao army's defense was the weakest, and we immediately launched the strongest attack. If it succeeds, the Liao army will be defeated. If it fails, we will retreat." Nianhan pointed at Hamichi and Shi Jianu, "Don't move for the first time, wait until I order you, and fight with all your strength."

Ha Michi and Shi Jianu nodded in agreement.

Wanyan Loushi looked at Nian Han and wanted to say something but stopped. Nian Han drank this time. In order to kill Yelu Ma Ge, he drew 2,000 defenders from Ningchang City and entered Shangjing Road with 10,000 troops. Now there are only one thousand defenders in Ningchang City. If there is a variable, Yizhou is very likely to be lost. At that time, Nian Han wanted to be exempted from punishment unless he killed Yelu Ma Ge in Yebiaoyuan. So he fought hard this time, but what can he do if he didn't fight hard? He was deceived by Li Hu and could not get off. There was only one road that went black. If he didn't succeed, he would be successful.

The yoke (e) is a wooden driving tool that is placed around the neck of a livestock when driving. It is slightly bent and looks a bit like a "human".
