The soldiers who were defeated like mountains and fought to the death with artillery fire and arrows were extremely embarrassed when they retreated. Before the chest wall that was still in danger just now, only corpses and wounded soldiers waiting to die were left. The "Liao Army" had only one thousand troops to defend the camp, and the "big camp" behind them did not participate in the battle at all. There were only more than 500 people in front of them. It was simple to defend the earth walls and trenches, but they easily defeated three times their own enemy. The two thousand soldiers stationed in Laiyuan County were not ordinary men, but the most elite army of the Goryeo Kingdom. The battle was not unhealthy and hard, but they still failed.

This scene fell in the eyes of the governor Jin Xianrong, and his face was covered with a dark cloud: "The 'Liao Army' is so powerful, is it a palace tent army?" Until this time, Jin Xianrong still concluded that the Liao army was fighting with him. The Goryeo court adopted the policy of "mainly and sincerely", but in fact, he regarded himself as the heir of Goguryeo, a great country in Liaodong, and had always wanted to expand its power northward to the scope of Liaodong. Jin Xianrong controlled tens of thousands of elite soldiers in the northeast. Now he is in Baozhou, and he only regards the Liao Kingdom and the rising Jin Kingdom as opponents. Other "savage" Jurchen tribes and the weak Han army are not taken seriously.

The nightmare of the retreating Goryeo Army is far from over. Ma Rui and Jian Cheng both received the order for cavalry to pursue the enemy. Two hundred cavalrymen walked out from behind the artillery tower on the left wing, gradually increasing their speed, and chasing the defeated soldiers of Goryeo who were facing their positions. At the same time, the Xia army artillery tower turned to the head of the city, and the artillery shells hit the surroundings of the city with heavy inertia, suppressing the strong crossbows and arrows at the city, and making it difficult for the defeated Goryeo Army to escape into the nearest Ximen.

This time, Jian Cheng led his troops to rush forward. After the 100-man team came to the open ground, he raised the horse lance horizontally with his right hand. This was the military order for the cavalry to spread out and arranged as a diffuse formation. More than 200 cavalry behind him slowly opened the distance and divided into two teams, with the distance between the front and back cavalry about ten steps away. On the open battlefield, it was very convenient to shoot arrows and stabbing guns. Jian Cheng hung the horse lance on the bird wing ring and won the victory hook, and used his hands to take out the tiger treasure bow from the bow bag, bent his bow and put on the arrow, and whizzed out the arrow, and it was actually an arrow that was shot without any mistakes.

Ma Rui used his arms to exert strength. A large gun stabbed the Goryeo soldiers to the ground with huge inertia. The gun body stirred like a giant python. It stretched and contracted, and it spitted out the impact and recoil like a living thing. Leading by these two brave generals, the two cavalrymen opened the distance, and swept across the battlefield like two iron teeth of a rake. Even though one and two soldiers resisted desperately, the Goryeo soldiers had no power to turn around and fought. They fled along the city wall while calling the city desperately.

The battle under Laiyuan City was coming to an end, but the sound of cannons and shouts of killing became louder and louder, and it was also heard clearly on the Yalu River. Li Sihai stood in the mast and observed the battle with the Qianli Mirror. Seeing the Goryeo Army crying and howling at the pursuit, "The Eighth Battalion is not bad." He shouted loudly under the mast. Victory made people excited, and the end of the battle made him feel a little excited. He turned the Qianli Mirror in the direction and looked at the head of the city of Baozhou. "Huh? I'm afraid that the general is standing on the top of the city!"

Li Sihai suddenly had a whim, and half of his body reached outside Diao Dou and shouted loudly: "Look at the top of Baozhou city! Hurry!"

The soldiers did not dare to neglect, and the position of the warship quickly adjusted. The port side was facing the head of Baozhou city, and ten four-inch cannons roared in turn. The huge roar sounded across the river, which made the mast and the dagger shaking. Li Sihai ignored it completely and only chased the head of Baozhou city with a thousand-mile mirror. Most of the shells fell elsewhere. When he saw a shell hit the head of the city, he couldn't help but shouted excitedly: "Good!" All the ten cannons rang out, and the general was surrounded by Goryeo soldiers. The head of Baozhou city was in chaos, and he couldn't see clearly what the result was.

Li Sihai bent down again and shouted: "Continue firing, don't stop!" He stared at the deck viciously, as if his eyes were about to penetrate the thick wooden board, staring at the gunners who were already washing the barrel and loading ammunition with all their might. After a long period of drills and cooperation, the gunners on the ship had already loaded ammunition at a terrifying speed. Before Li Sihai's body could retract from the railing, "Boom!" A huge cannon sound shook the mast again, almost knocking the captain who was caught off guard.

"His grandma!" Li Sihai grabbed the railing with one hand and murmured in a low voice, "The bastard Zhao De trained!" He hurriedly pointed the Qianli Mirror at the head of Baozhou city. The second round of artillery was more effective. Three shells hit the city tower one after another, but the general's figure was gone just now. The Goryeo soldiers ran around like headless flies. I don't know what the result of this round of artillery was. Li Sihai couldn't help feeling a little sad. After looking at it for a while, the mast vibrated violently again. He shouted at the bottom: "Stop, stop, stop firing again!" Because of the delayed effect of the command and artillery firing, six more cannons were fired under the deck before the movement was stopped. The river was covered with black smoke, just like Li Sihai's mood. The navy was indeed not as easy as the battalion on the shore.

The camps in the northeast of Baozhou were all like a loss of their parents. Just as the round of artillery attacks just now, Jin Xianrong, the head of the camps in the northeast of Baozhou, was actually killed in the battle. Just during the first round of artillery attacks, a shell hit the city tower. Jin Dutong was still very brave, saying that this was just a harassment of enemy ships on the river. Under the persuasion of the staff, he was still stubborn and did not go down to the city tower to hide. However, the first in the second round of artillery attacks

The shell hit the city again, and a piece of splashed gravel hit the back of the Jin Dutong. It was bloody on the spot, and even the last words were not explained, so he left. Since Suzong of the Goryeo Kingdom was determined to pursue the northern border, there has been no record of the death of the generals of the unified army at the level of the Xingying City. This bolt from the blue was defeated, and the upper and lower parts of the Xingying City were in chaos in the northeast, so that no one paid attention to the gains and losses of the Yalu River and the gains and losses of the Xingying County.

The battlefield where the sound of cannons was shocking and the sound of killing was already silent at this time. The chasing cavalry did not approach the far city walls too close to the far city walls and slowly rushed back to the camp. Du Chujiao and his sword and shield team leaped over the chest wall and trenches to the battlefield where corpses were everywhere, and they sorted out the battlefield. Their main military affairs, in addition to the number of killed enemies, were to make up for the seriously injured and waiting to die. Many Goryeo soldiers were injured by artillery shells, leaving only half of their bodies, but they still had a breath, or their stomachs were flowing through their intestines, lying on the ground and moaning helplessly. Xue Yong, who fought to the death, was only a moment. At this time, the smoke on the battlefield had not dissipated, but was filled with endless sadness. Du Chuo

Before joining Chengying Camp, Jiao had participated in several regular battles. It was not the first time that the sword and shield team had been doing military affairs to clean up the battlefield. When they encountered such insured people, they silently recited the curse of rebirth in their hearts. They could still save him with one knife, or were not injured at all, but they were scared and unable to move. They threw a rope and let them tie themselves up. These wounded and defeated soldiers seemed to be waiting for death in front of the sword and shield hands, but for the garrison camp with no experience, there was still great danger. After the soldiers cleaned up all the living people on the battlefield, Zhao Xingde ordered the garrison camp to come out to bury the bodies and clean up the spoils.

In this battle, more than 600 enemies were killed and more than 800 prisoners were captured. Two thousand elite Korean soldiers came out, and only four hundred escaped back to the far city. The Xia State Camp suffered losses of twenty-one and thirty-three people, most of which were injured when the Goryeo army shook the chest wall and trench defense line. The weak attacked the crowd ushered in a great victory. In addition to those who had friends who died in battle, the Eighth Battalion of Chengying was very excited. Even the soldiers of the garrison battalion who saw the appearance of the Goryeo people clearly felt honored and were all happy. The soldiers of Chengying looked down on the armor and weapons of the Goryeo army. These spoils were naturally used to arm the garrison battalion.

Before clearing the battlefield, the military discipline was declared to the garrison battalion in advance, and all seizures, including the personal finances found from the Goryeo people, must be distributed in a centralized manner, and those who hold them strictly punished them. Zhao Xingde really did not want his army to lose its combat effectiveness like Lu Mei's army, because of looting spoils from each other. The soldiers even wanted to strip off those blood-stained military robes, but they stopped them immediately after being discovered by Zhao Xingde.

The subordinates were happy, but Zhao Xingde first paid attention to the soldiers who died in battle and were injured, and said apologetically: "If we had more archers, the casualties would be smaller." No matter how weak the enemy was, as long as hand-to-hand combat was hand-to-hand combat, casualties would be inevitable. However, the General's Mansion of Xia State has never dared to make the proportion of archers in the infantry as high as 80%. Although bows and arrows can avoid casualties, in many battles in this era, the ability to fight hand-to-hand combat was determined.

It was not just a coincidence but intentional. The battle between the Xia State Camp and the Goryeo army ended in the morning. In the afternoon, Wang Hengzhi brought three thousand Kaizhou Han troops to Laiyuan County. Not only that, two thousand Yalu River Jurchen tribe troops arrived with them. When the Han army arrived, they happened to meet the garrison camp to collect the battlefield. The corpses of the Goryeo soldiers were piled up together. The garrison soldiers were sweating profusely next to the pile of corpses, and the armor and weapons were piled up in different categories. After obtaining the permission of the soldiers, the garrison camp immediately distributed the still-intact armored weapons. Those that were damaged and unusable would be concentrated together. In the future, they would be transported back to the camp. If they could be repaired, they would be repaired. If they could not be repaired, they would be renovated.
