Chapter 305 The decisive battle

Faced with the threat of national subjugation, the Khitans in Yanjing burst out with strong patriotism and enthusiastically joined the army.

Not only the Khitans, but also the Xi people, Zubu, Shiwei, and even the Han'er and Jurchens in Yandi responded to the call of the Northern Liao court and joined the army to protect their homes and country.

However, Yanjing City is not an international metropolis with millions of people like Tokyo's Bianliang City. It is really difficult to recruit 150,000 elite soldiers from Yanjing City alone.

There was no other way, Xiao Puxian could only spread the conscription to the entire Yanjing.

It took more than half a month for Xiao Puxian, the female monarch, to recruit 1,340,000 horses, plus the original 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers and horses of the Liao Kingdom, to collect the 200,000 "elite soldiers" needed by the Taiyi Huntian Xiang Formation. .

During this period, the Liangshan Army did not stop. They dispersed and attacked the recruiters Xiao Puxian sent to the southern area of ​​Yanjing. During this period, they also attacked the city three times, and once they almost invaded the city of Yanjing.

——In fact, this was all staged by the Liangshan Army in order to force the Liao Army to leave the city for a decisive battle. It is no exaggeration to say that if the Liangshan Army had tried its best to attack the city, it might have captured the city of Yanjing.

Finally, after working hard and spending all the money of the Northern Liao Dynasty, the female monarch Xiao Puxian was ready for a decisive battle with the Liangshan Army.

In order to no longer suffer the Liangshan Army's attack on the city, and to repel the Liangshan Army's attack so that the desperate Bei Liao could breathe a sigh of relief, Wu Yanguang raised his tent in Dasheng Mansion and said: "The Liangshan bandits are bullying me and there is no one in Daliao. I I have asked the Queen Mother for permission to lead you out of the city to fight the Liangshan Army. If we don't win, I will kill myself. Who dares to lead the troops with me?"

The two generals passed in front of the account and came out: "The two of you are willing to be in front!"

Among these two people, one is the Daliao fan officer Qiong Yao Nayan; the other is the Yanjing fan general, whose surname is Kou and whose twin names are Zhenyuan.

Wu Yanguang was overjoyed and said to Qiong Yao Nayan and Kou Zhenyuan: "Well, you two are really our loyal ministers and good generals in the Liao Dynasty! You and I will lead 10,000 troops as the vanguard, build roads across mountains and build bridges across rivers." I will lead the army to arrive soon."

Not to mention that Wu Yanguang immediately ordered his own generals, Eleven Yao and Twenty-eight Su, to cause a large army of more than 200,000 troops and horses to rise up. He raised up a large army of divisions to roll over and fight against the Liangshan Army.

But he said that the vanguard generals Qiong and Kou would lead 10,000 troops, open a road through the mountains, and advance their troops first.

There has been detailed retribution with Jiang Hongfei for a long time, and the decisive battle is going to be huge.

Jiang Hongfei did not dare to rely on his superiors, and had already prepared for this decisive battle. He issued an order, asking Zhu Wu and Madam Jia to leave only a small number of troops to garrison Wanping County and Daxing County, and attack the Liao army from the left and right. Most of the soldiers and horses came to listen to the tune.

At the same time, in view of the fact that this decisive battle was crucial to the future of Shuibo Liangshan, Jiang Hongfei also mobilized a lot of left-behind troops from Zhuozhou, Yizhou, Xiongzhou, and Bazhou, and asked the naval leader to bring Hebei , and even many troops from Shandong were transferred. They took large ships and traveled by water, and all went to Bazhou to gather together, and then marched by land to join the war.

In the end, Jiang Hongfei had a total of 270,000 troops, 70,000 more than the Liao army.

After learning that Wu Yanguang was leading the Liao army for a decisive battle, Jiang Hongfei gathered all the military advisors, generals, leaders, and civil and military officials to discuss military affairs.

Jiang Hongfei said: "This time Wu Yanguang personally led the Liao army to overwhelm the country, which is by no means a trivial matter. The outcome is a battle of life and death. You brothers should work hard to move forward and don't regret retreating in life. But you have achieved small results. , I will not begrudge the reward.”

Everyone stood up and said: "Who dares not to obey the orders of the Duke! We will do our best to serve the Duke!"

During the discussion, the primary school came to report: "An envoy from the Liao Kingdom has issued a letter of war."

Jiang Hongfei taught him to come to the tent and present the book.

Jiang Hongfei opened the book and read it. It was generals Qiong and Kou who were the vanguard envoys in front of Wuyan Guangtong's army tent in the Liao Dynasty to serve as front troops and horses, anticipating a decisive battle in the coming day.

Jiang Hongfei wrote the end of the book and reported the decisive battle in the future. Call and bring food and wine back to the village. The next day dawn will determine the outcome.

The next day, at five o'clock, we made food, and at dawn, we set out to set out for the village.

Within four or five miles, the Liangshan Army had already met the Liao Army.

Looking at the shadow of the soap-carved flag in the distance, two pioneer flags flashed out.

Then, with the roar of war drums and the opening of the gate flags, Qiong Yao Nayan stood in front of the formation, leaping on his horse with his sword drawn.

Jiang Hongfei glanced at Qiong Yao Nayan under the banner and asked the generals on the left and right: "Who is going to fight with this general?"

At that moment, Jiuwen Long Shijin raised his sword and wanted to go out and challenge Qiong Yao Nayan.

But his master, Wang Jin, said: "Da Lang, please stay here. This man has strong spiritual energy and will definitely become a first-class man. You are no match for him and will be easily hurt by him. You'd better be my master."

After saying this, Wang Jin drew his spear and leaped out of the battle.

When the two generals came to the formation, they did not know their names and started fighting.

In an instant, two war horses met each other, two weapons were raised at the same time, a man on the saddle was fighting a man, a seated horse was fighting a horse, guns were coming and going, swords were flying, flowers were blooming, swords were flying, a bunch of brocade was flying, four arms were criss-crossing, and eight horse hooves were flying. Flirting and walking around.

Then, in front of the formations of the two armies, there was a cloud of dust and smoke billowing, and war drums were rumbling. The martial arts of Qiong Yao Nayan and Wang Jin have both reached the level of proficiency. Every move and every move they make is full of power and beauty. Qiong Yao Nayan's sword skills are like the violent wind and rain, unstoppable, but Wang Jin's spear skills are as agile as flowing water, sometimes as fast as lightning, sometimes as slow as clouds.

The battle between the two seemed to become a moving picture, attracting everyone's attention. Every collision of weapons seems to trigger thunderous power, and every dodge is like dancing on the tip of a knife.

Jiang Hongfei and others could clearly see that the battle between Wang Jin and Qiong Yao Nayan was not only a confrontation of strength, but also a contest of wisdom and courage.

After more than seventy rounds of fierce fighting, Qiong Yao Nayan suddenly struck Wang Jin with a sword. The sword was so powerful and heavy that it seemed to split the sky. However, Wang Jin was not confused at all. The spear in his hand was like a snake, cleverly bypassing the sword of Qiong Yao Nayan and pointing directly at his throat. Qiong Yao Nayan was shocked and hurriedly returned his sword to defend, but Wang Jin took the opportunity to stab him in the crotch and belly.

The war horse of Qiong Yao Nayan was in pain, went crazy and threw him off.

Wang Jin rushed up, put a gun to Qiong Yao Nayan's throat, and captured him alive.

Nakou Zhenyuan saw that Wang Jin had captured Nayan, the beautiful demon, alive. He was so angry that he felt evil in his heart. He jumped on his horse, drew his gun, and walked straight out of the battle. He cursed loudly: "Brother, please let me go quickly." Brother!”

At that moment, the sick Wei Chi and Sun Li flew out and attacked Kou Zhenyuan directly.

The war drums sounded like thunder, and the constant shouts of killing were deafening.

Sun Li's golden spear descended from the sky like a magic weapon. Kou Zhen saw the sight and knew that he had encountered a formidable enemy, so he did not dare to take it lightly.

The battle lasted only twenty rounds, but Kou Zhen saw that Sun Li was highly skilled in martial arts and could not defeat him with supernatural powers, so he galloped away.

Kou Zhenyuan was afraid of disturbing the formation, so he could only flee around the formation to the northeast.

Sun Li was about to make a meritorious deed, how could he let him off so easily? He immediately mounted his horse to catch up.

After chasing for a while, Sun Li took the gun on his horse, picked up the bow in his left hand, took the arrow in his right hand, nocked the arrow, and pulled the bow full. He looked at Kou Zhenyuan and then became more affectionate, only one arrow.

When Kou Zhenyuan heard the sound of the bowstring, he fell down, but the arrow could easily be shot. He just missed the arrow with a flick of his hand.

When Sun Li saw it, he cheered secretly.

Kou Zhenyuan sneered: "This guy is showing off with bows and arrows!" He bit the arrow in his mouth, put the gun on the ring, quickly took out the hard bow with his left hand, put the arrow on the string with his right hand, turned around, and looked at Sun Li in front of him. An arrow shot to the pit of my heart.

Sun Li was already alert and nimbly dodged on horseback as the arrow flew past him.

But Sun Li's horse lost control and continued to run wildly.

Kou Zhenyuan took out his bow, put on the arrow string, turned around and aimed at Sun Li.

Sun Li had already seen it secretly, moving left and right on his horse. The arrow hit his chest. He saw the right moment, grabbed the arrow and pressed it on his chest. He looked back and fell down. His horse was walking on its own.

Kou Zhenyuan thought: "He must have been hit by an arrow." He pointed his gun and stabbed Sun Li in the chest.

The two horses' heads were facing each other. When they were less than ten feet apart, Sun Li suddenly jumped up and shouted: "General Wu, you fell into my trap. If I don't treat you like this, I will teach you." Ran!"

Kou Zhenyuan was taken aback and said harshly: "If you can dodge my arrows, you can also dodge my gun. Look at the gun!" Wang Sun Li tried his best to hit Sun Li in the chest with a shot.

Sun Li straightened his chest and accepted his shot. The tip of the spear reached the armor, slightly to one side. The spear was passed through the ribs, but Kou Zhenyuan threw himself into his arms. Sun Li picked up the tiger-eye steel whip on his wrist and wanted to hit Kou Zhenyuan on the head.

But in this flash of lightning, Sun Li remembered that Jiang Hongfei wanted to annex Bei Liao instead of destroying Bei Liao, so he pressed down on the steel whip and hit Kou Zhenyuan's goggles, knocking him off his horse. , then he rode his horse over to look around and captured Kou Zhenyuan.

Sun Li captured Kou Zhenyuan, and Jiang Hongfei mobilized the three armies. The Liao army had no master and fled in all directions.

As Liangshan's army was rushing, they suddenly heard a barrage of gunfire in front of them.

Jiang Hongfei hurriedly called for gold and retreated his troops. An auspicious cloud lifted up and carried a group of military advisors and generals to a high place to take a look.

They saw that the Liao army was rushing towards this direction like an overwhelming force, but it was the main force of the Liao army that had arrived.

Jiang Hongfei did not lead his army to fight immediately. Instead, at the suggestion of Liu Huiniang and others, he sent an order to the generals of the three armies to order flags and flags neatly, bows and crossbows to be strung, swords to be unsheathed, antlers planted deeply, camps to be guarded, moats to be in place, and troops to be guarded. Weapons were used together, everything that should be prepared was ready, and they were waiting in advance. They set up the Nine Palaces and Bagua formation and were ready for a decisive battle with the Liao army at any time.

At the same time, Jiang Hongfei secretly arranged the horse army: Du Bo was in front, Sun An was in the back, Lu Junyi was on the left, Shi Wengong was on the right, Wang Jin was in the southeast, Linchong was in the northeast, Guan Sheng was in the southwest, and Qin Ming was in the northwest. Jiang Hongfei guarded the central army, and the other generals remained at their posts. The infantry at the rear will be stationed in another place and stay behind for a while. Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, Wu Jie, Liu Qi, Wu Lin, Wang Zhen, Li Yanxian, Zhao Li, etc. will be arranged by Jiang Hongfei in crucial places, supplemented by steady Liangshan general who is good at fighting.

It can be said that among the more than 200,000 Liangshan Army, they are all generals who are accustomed to fighting, and they are all gearing up and preparing to fight.

The formation is complete and waiting for the Liao army.

Before long, the mighty Liao army came from afar.

I saw. The six teams of Liao soldiers and horses in front were blowing whistles and marching down the formation. There are six teams of Liao soldiers, each with 500 troops. There are three teams on the left and three teams on the right. They circulate in circles and their momentum is uncertain. Look at the soldiers in front, and the large groups in the back. When the troops come to cover the ground, the front troops are all covered with Xuanwu flags. There are seven flag gates in one generation, each gate has thousands of horses, and each gate has a general.

The Zuojun cover is the Qinglong Banner. There are seven flag gates in one generation. Each gate has thousands of horses and a general.

The right army is all white tiger flags, and there are seven flag gates in one generation. Each gate has thousands of horses and one general.

The rear army is all under the Zhuque Banner. There are also seven banner gates in one generation, each gate has a thousand horses and one general.

There is a team on the front left of the rear army, five thousand fierce soldiers, all wearing gold-plated bronze armor, scarlet robes and red tassels, a flaming red flag, and a red horse with a crimson saddle. The flag is supporting a general, it is Yelu Dashi, who is standing in front of him. Press the upper realm Sun Star Lord.

On the right side of the front of the rear army was a team of five thousand female soldiers. They were all wearing silver-flowered hats, silver hooked mail, plain robes and tassels, white flags and white horses, silver poles, swords and spears. They were surrounded by a female general with a phoenix hairpin on her head. Green silk, red ruffles smearing the forehead, scattered pearls and emeralds, cloud shoulders skillfully lined with brocade skirt, embroidered coat deep in silver armor, small flower boots with golden stirrups, graceful green sleeves with light jade whip. He wields a seven-star sword and rides a white horse with silver mane. It is Yelu Dalibo, Princess Tianshou of the Liao Kingdom, who is the Lord of Taiyin Star in the upper realm.

In the formations of the two teams, yellow flags were everywhere, and the generals were all riding yellow horses and wearing golden armor. A yellow cloud rises from the armor-lined robe, and the yellow mist disperses for a long time from the embroidered scarf. There are four generals in Huang's army, each leading three thousand troops, divided into four corners. There is a general on each corner, guarding the group. A general from the southeast, according to the upper realm of Luo Diao Xingjun, is Yelu Derong, the nephew of the emperor of Liao; a general from the southwest, according to the upper realm of Duxingjun, is Yelu Dehua, the nephew of the emperor of Liao; and a general from the northeast , according to the Purple Air Star Lord in the upper realm, he is Yelu Dezhong, the nephew of the Emperor of Liao Kingdom; a general in the northwest, according to the Yuebixing Lord in the upper realm, is Yelu Dexin, the nephew of the Emperor of Liao Kingdom.

There is a general in the Huangjun formation, holding a star in the center of the upper boundary. There is a green flag on the left, a white ax on the right, a red flag in front, and a soap cover behind. The Zhou Hui flag is based on the sixty-four hexagrams of the twenty-four qi, Nanchen, Beidou, flying dragon, flying tiger, flying bear, and flying leopard, which clearly distinguish the left and right of yin and yang, which coincide with the chaos of the universe and the jade balance.

The general was holding a square halberd with a red painting pole. This cluster of military horses is radiant, and its four sides are like gold. According to the ruler of the sky, Saturn in the middle palace. It was General Wu Yanguang, the commander-in-chief of the Daliao Kingdom.

There is poetry to prove it:

The flags, flags, armor, swords and spears are in the center of the tude yellow. How can God's will be defeated by manpower? It will be a waste of life and death.

The army of the Liao Kingdom has been arranged in a sky formation, just like a chicken egg, and the troops are stationed at regular intervals, forming a mass like a raspberry. The flags are arranged at the four corners, the guns are placed in all directions, the circulation is irregular, the advance and retreat are well-regulated, and the formation is laid out.

Besides, Jiang Hongfei taught strong bows and crossbows to shoot at the base of the formation, and suppressed the formation with light cavalry. The Chinese army erected a cloud ladder general platform and invited all the military advisors, generals, leaders, and civil and military officials to come up to the platform and watch.

Jiang Hongfei carefully watched this powerful formation and couldn't help but sigh: "This is the Taiyi Huntian Elephant Formation? It's so majestic!"

Zhu Wu echoed from the side: "This heavenly formation is endlessly changing and unpredictable. It should not be underestimated."

After Jiang Hongfei heard this, he looked at Liu Huiniang, whose belly was slightly bulging: "Huiniang, what's going on? Are you sure you can break this formation?"

Liu Huiniang said confidently: "Officials, don't worry. The slave family has already studied this formation thoroughly and made full preparations. It will be defeated in one battle."

Jiang Hongfei is still very confident in Liu Huiniang's talent in formations. The key is that Liu Huiniang has thoroughly studied the heavenly book about formations, and the Taiyi Huntian Formation is in the heavenly book.

After watching for a while, Jiang Hongfei withdrew his gaze and asked, "By the way, have the troops to surprise Yanjing set off?"
