Chapter 463 Exit

In front of the White Tiger Account, several generals and generals of the Song army gathered around the map. After winning the first battle, everyone was not excited for long.

"Where is Brother Yelu Xiu? Li Jilong, what do you think?"

It is said that when fighting, it is promoted on the front line. Li Jilong, who was just a small person before, immediately became one of the best people after the battle. Even Han Chongyun had to pay attention to his opinions, as if he wasn't the one who almost killed people before.

Li Jilong was not nervous and said proudly: "The last general thought that since Yelu Xiu Ge used this trick to lure the enemy, he thought he could not win quickly. Since this is the case, his strategic goal should be to try to accumulate advantages before the official army arrives."

Everyone nodded after hearing this. This was very reasonable. Of course, it was basically just a nonsense.

"The army of the government will arrive at no later than two months. If I were Yelu Xiu Ge, the primary goal should be to occupy three fortresses on the Taihang Mountains and cut off the connection between our He-Bei and Yunzhou, so that we cannot echo each other. They are all cavalrymen. If we cut us in half, he will come and go on this big plain like the wind, and he will fight whatever he wants. If the army of the government comes to He-Bei, he will attack Yanmen Pass with all his strength. If the government saves him, he will turn around and attack Xiongzhou again. They use four legs to slip on our legs, and it will also make us exhausted."

Han Chongyun nodded deeply when he heard this, and asked Sun Yue: "What does Sun Shuai mean?"

"Absolutely, if I were Yelu Xiu Ge, I would go to the west, but I was afraid that he would do the opposite. Therefore, Waqiao Pass and the several fortresses in the east must be strictly guarded. Let's just pretend that Yelu Xiu Ge is really going to the west. We have built four fortresses on the Taihang Mountains, with a small number of two thousand people and a large number of five thousand people. Which one do you think he will fight first?"

Everyone looked at each other and no one spoke, even Li Jilong. In the cold weapon war, how could someone really win a thousand miles away? They could only take one step at a time and contact the people on the fortress first.

There is nothing to say. The generals have no objection, so let's go out of the city to find Yelu Xiu Ge. Fortunately, the Tianxiong Army at this time is completely different from the Song and Liao border troops behind. Not only can they dare to go out of the city to fight, but they are also good at going out of the city to fight. They also win more than lose less when fighting with the Liao army. Of course, they can't catch up after agreeing. Besides, because of Sun Yue's relationship in this time and space, the relationship between the Song and the Northwest is quite good. Horse trade is going on every year. If you get together in the Tianxiong Army, you can get more than 20,000 cavalry with one man and two horses out.

"Ship Han, do you want the cavalry to go first and explore the situation first?"

"This... what do you mean by Sun Shuai?" Poor Han Chongyun didn't dare to make arbitrary decisions now.

Sun Yue thought for a while and asked, "Who are the guards on the Taihang Mountain Fortress?"

Everyone thought for a while and said, "Wang Shuang, Chi Yun, Wang Dalei, and Yang Yanzhao, son of Yang Ye."

He didn't know the first three Sun Yue, let alone heard of them, but Yang Yanzhao was familiar with him. When he heard that it was him there, the big stone in his heart immediately dropped 90%. In history, his famous battle in Suicheng was also a small city with only 3,000 people. Empress Dowager Xiao was unable to fight in an urgent manner.

So he said, "Yelu Xiu Ge is cunning in his military service, so he must be careful. There is no use for the few cavalry soldiers to fight. If there are too many soldiers, it will be troublesome if he is not here. If the horses are exploring the situation, we will lead the main force and then go slowly. Han Shuai, you will lead 20,000 troops and Xun Ge'er to garrison here. How about leaving you five thousand cavalry?"

Han Chongyun especially wanted to ask who was the chief and deputy, but he knew that it was not the time to talk about this. Sun Yue's prestige in the army was significantly higher than that of him, so he nodded and agreed.

But Han Chongxun interrupted, "No, my soldiers are on fire, and they are still thinking about making military achievements to compete with the Tianxiong Army. I don't have to lead troops in the future after I stay in the city. Brother Yue, I will follow you."

Han Chongyun's face turned green and he glared at his own son fiercely. Whose fucked him?

Fu Yansheng was more understanding and smiled and said, "I'd better stay with Han Shuai. I've seized all my subordinates in the battle last night. I can't take all the credits. It's rare that General Han has such ambition. Is it better to fight for one month than to practice for ten years, and he will become an elite force after fighting."

Han Chongxun was overjoyed, and Han Chongyun couldn't say anything more, so things were settled in such a "happy" way.

Of course, before leaving, Sun Yue did not forget to instruct the company to transport grain with all its money and salt, and also wrote a handwritten letter to Luoyang's father and Zhao Tingmei, asking for money, grain and equipment. At the same time, Li Jilong led the cavalry that he attacked the camp yesterday to defend the food route. Everyone could see that after the battle, he should lead the army alone to be promoted to commander-in-chief.

The next day, Sun Yue led a mixed Luoyang Imperial Army of 50,000 troops and Tianxiong Army to re-equip them and walked in line. The Gods were doing good along the way. Not only did the snow stop, but the temperature became much gentler. Sun Yue also tried the battle bow and found that although it had an impact, it could still have 70% strength. He couldn't help but feel more confident.

It is impossible to say that it is not nervous. My family knows his own affairs. In the past, except for being a staff officer with Zhao Kuangyin, they were bullying people. Now they are fighting against the old enemy Khitan and the god of war Yelu Xiuge. They also led the Waqiao Pass, which could give him a sense of security. If the enemy troops were all gathered together, there would be 500,000.

The adrenaline-fuelled, he was so angry that he couldn't help but sing: "It's so good, I feel that life has reached its peak~"

Crossed out, it seems to be crooked.

However, after only more than thirty miles away from the city, a whistle came to report that a small team of cavalry appeared in the east and followed them. Sun Yue asked Han Chongxun to lead the cavalry to fight in person. As a result, the people turned around and ran away. They finally caught up with each other and returned half of them, and almost couldn't find the large army, but a new wave appeared in the north.

Sun Yue had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​annihilation of the enemy and let the troops advance in a more rigorous formation, and simply ignore these small drum cavalry. Of course, the marching speed has slowed down. Thanks to the fortresses spread all over the river and north, when it was cold at night, the soldiers could find a place to go into the house and warm it and drink a sip of hot water. Otherwise, just dragging it like this would reduce morale by a lot.

On the third day, not only did the cavalry outside not decrease, but there were a lot more. After rough estimates, it had exceeded 50,000, which was more than their people. However, most of them were herders who were temporarily summoned, and they seemed to have no combat power. Sun Yue asked Han Chongxun and Li Jilong to rush to kill them again, but when they walked to the evening, they surrounded them again 30,000 to 40,000, and simply killed them for a while before entering the fortress and acted as bedtime.

The casualties were not large. The Liao army seemed to be just using this method to hinder their advancement, but they always felt that they were sincerely being made into dumplings. In addition, the pressure from facing Yelu Xiu Ge was the first time, which made Sun Yue very upset.
