Chapter 417 The Battle of Nong'an

In Nong'an County, although the Song army was small, it was not so easy for the Liao army to defeat the Song army with the city defense.

However, there were many soldiers in Liao, but they were all cavalrymen, good at guerrilla warfare, and were not good at siege in cities, but this time Han Derang made sufficient preparations.

Liao army camp.

"The Song army occupied Nong'an City, and Guo Hao was inside. Our army surrounded three and one in a shortage, leaving only a gap in the south. If the Song army lost, it would inevitably retreat south.

The Song army joined forces with the Jurchens to Huiba tribe. Although the number of people is smaller than that of us, the Song army's firearms are very powerful. You must not be careless, so as not to fall into Guo Hao's tricks!"

As the head coach, Han Derang instructed all the generals in the camp that Yelu Xiezhen was the deputy commander, and the two planned to split into two groups to besiege Nong'an County!

"Although the commander is relieved, it is just a small county town. How could he stop our army? If Emperor Song knew the truth, he would leave obediently. Otherwise, we would capture him alive and directly attack Bianliang and destroy the State of Song!"

Not everyone among the Khitan generals were as cautious as Han Derang. They were so disgusted by Guo Hao before, but this time they were all shouting to take revenge.

Seeing that people's hearts were available, Han Derang nodded and a general attacked the north. After all, the north was the hinterland of the Khitan, so Guo Hao could not run towards the face.

Han De asked his personal commander's army to attack Ximen, and Yelu Xiezhen was responsible for attacking the East Gate. The 50,000 troops from three sides were divided into four. The rest would block the Song army's route so that they would not flee westward and threaten to go to Beijing.

The Liao army was well arranged, and Guo Hao also responded. He knew that the Liao army's purpose was to drive them away, and their intentions could be seen from the Liao army's arrangement.

In the camp, Guo Hao looked at the generals and said, "Zhao Kuangyin led 10,000 troops to defend the Ximen. If I guessed correctly, the Ximen leader should be Han Derang.

Feng Jiye guarded the east gate, and the main general there was probably Yelu Xiezhen, and the attacks on both sides might be very fierce.

Wang Zhengzhong and Liu Shouzhong are at the North Gate. The Liao army should feel that we dare not break north, so you are ready. When the time is right, break through the North Gate and pull the Wanyan tribe into the battle group!"

It is impossible for the Wanyan tribe torture them through various means during this period. When the Liao army arrived, it depends on whether they dare to take action!

"yes!"

Predict the enemy first, plan and then move.

Guo Hao carefully analyzed the actions of the Liao army and speculated on various possibilities. The reason for this situation was because he was the bait.

Otherwise, Nong'an County would not need so many troops. The reason why Guo Hao was in danger was to seduce the main force of the Liao army and then fight to make a decision!

Both sides were ready, and the war was about to break out, and this day finally came.

On the day of the war, Guo Hao stood on the city wall to the west and looked through the telescope. Sure enough, he found a big word "Han" on the Liao army's flag.

The reason why Han Derang was at Ximen was because Ximen was more important. The west side of Nong'an was Shangjing. If other guards were replaced and the battle was defeated, Guo Hao would likely lead a large army to Shangjing.

Therefore, the power in the west is the greatest. The 30,000 troops built a defense line in the west, while there were only 20,000 people in the north and east.

The Liao army was waving flags and various siege equipment were ready. Guo Hao smiled disdainfully when he saw it, and said, "Yuan Long, first destroy their equipment with cannons, and then throw explosive packs.

When they get close, let the musketeers come on, and the crossbowmen prepare, and wait until they enter the minefield and give them a surprise."

"Abide by the order!"

Yes, Guo Hao buried a lot of "land mines" in the open space outside the city, but the mines now do not have a trigger device and need to be ignited with a rocket.

Even so, the mine leads are connected in series. As long as there is an explosion, a series of explosions will be triggered, enough to blow the Liao army up.

Although the mines are powerful, they are disposable after all, and it is too late to arrange them after the explosion, so they will try not to enter the minefield without the Liao army.

Such a long-range strike was the main method of the Song army. The musket army and archers were the main force. The Liao army could not get close to the city, so the casualties of the Song army would be greatly reduced!

At this time, Han Derang also saw the situation on the top of the city in the Liao army and found that there were not many defenders at all, and only a few thousand people could see.

If a defender wants to defend the city at such a little bit?

Or maybe Guo Hao has any conspiracy, it is likely to be surrounded by Wei and saved Zhao. Where did the main force of the Song army go?

If it is empty, it is solid, and if it is real, it is empty. When Zhuge Liang's empty city plan scares Sima Yi away, Guo Hao made two preparations today, and it depends on whether Han Debang is deceived.

"Come on, send me the order, and the army will move forward five miles and prepare to attack the city!"

Although Han Derang was suspicious, Guo Hao was in the city. He had been hiding for so long. If he had not left the station at this time, there would be no need for Song army to do anything. Han Derang himself would be punished.

He obviously asked him to come to Liaodong to support him, but he avoided fighting, and ended up losing Shenzhou and Tongzhou, which was caused by his unfavorable command.

So he had to start a war, he wanted to regain the lost land, and the army moved forward, and the footsteps of tens of thousands of people were loud, and it sounded very imposing when they came together.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

The Liao army's western gate launched an attack, and the other two gates also began. Guo Hao's expression became serious and he silently estimated the distance.

"It's now that the trencher throws explosives pack!"

The catapult flew over and wrapped the ignited explosives into the pan. When Han Delang saw it, he quickly ordered to avoid the falling stone.

However, the explosive pack is not a falling stone. Even if it cannot hit people, it can explode. There are countless gravels and iron sheets inside, and the impact is very large.

"Oh, oh..."

With a brief gap, there was a wail on the battlefield, and many people were hit by gravel and were immediately seriously injured.

"Guo Hao!!!"

Han De's eyes were so bloody that Guo Hao was so cruel that dozens of explosives fell, and thousands of people were injured.

However, this amount is not enough to make the Liao army afraid. The 20,000 troops are left with more than 10,000. They continue to rush forward under the supervision of the generals.

Soon, the catapult was useless, and Guo Hao directly ordered the fire to fire. The shells fell like meteorites, and their lethality was not very large.

The function of the cannon is to siege the city. Seeing that the Liao army had entered the range of muskets, Guo Hao decisively ordered the shooting, and three stages of fire were continuously fired. Thousands of bullets flew towards the Liao army like raindrops, instantly knocking down a large area.

Gunshots were endless. Guo Hao completely let go this time. Three thousand soldiers were sent in three rounds, and the Liao army directly lost the ordinary people.

"how so……"

Han Dejang was a little confused. Is Guo Hao a devil?

Looking at the remaining less than 10,000 soldiers, Han Derang had red eyes. In order to cooperate with other city gates, he gritted his teeth and did not order to retreat.

However, after the musket, what was waiting for them was a round of bows and arrows. Compared with the muskets and cannons, they were not very afraid of bows and arrows. They thought that the Song army was in poverty and victory was far away...

However, the next scene completely broke their fantasy. Seeing that they were approaching the city gate, a rocket suddenly landed among them.

Immediately afterwards, they seemed to hear some strange sound, and then there were loud noises. Later, Han Derang knew nothing.

When he woke up again, he found himself lying on a bed with a white cloth above his head, and it was noisy outside, as if it was very lively.

At this moment, a man in white clothes and a white hat came in and saw Han Delang saluting, and his face was filled with joy.

"You're awake!"

The language of the Han people!

Han De Rang was shocked and suddenly realized something was wrong. He saw the man turn around and come out of the tent. A man in a dragon robe walked in.

"General Han, you are so lucky. Even so many mines didn't blow you to death. It seems that you shouldn't die!"

Han Derang opened his eyes and his pupils suddenly became bigger. He knew this face, whether it was the Emperor of Song or who was it!

"It's you!"

Guo Hao smiled and nodded: "No, it's me!"

Han Dewang took a deep breath, resisted the impulse in his heart, closed his eyes and said, "Why did you save me?"

Guo Hao saw his anger and smiled and said, "A living general is more valuable than a corpse!"

Han Derang was silent. He didn't want to say anything more. The result of the war was self-evident. When the Liao Kingdom was defeated, Yelu Xiezhen escaped by chance. The rest of the Liao army died and fled.

"General Han, you thought you could defeat me with too many people, but you didn't expect that I would give you a surprise, a 50,000 army..."

Guo Hao looked sad, Han Derang clenched his fists tightly, and fainted when he was excited!
