"Your Majesty, Xiao Tanggu, Yelu Lidi and twenty-three generals retreat without authorization."

"Behead the public." Yelu Dashi pulled out his sword from his waist and handed it to Yelu Tiege, the Privy Councilor of the North Court, and said in a deep voice: "You bring three thousand guards to guard the back. If anyone retreats without authorization, you will be killed immediately!"

"Yes!" Yelu Tiege retreated with his sword in his hand, and the generals around him looked shaking. Yelu Dashi took a deep breath. In the distance, Jurchen cavalry came overwhelmed the earth. The soldiers dismounted and held shields and scimitars, and attacked the Liao army one after another. In front of the second camp built by the Liao army, the bodies of the soldiers on both sides were covered with blood. The ground was dyed purple-red by blood, while the Jurchen soldiers rushed forward regardless of life and death. Not long after, the heads of the general who retreated without authorization were hung out, but many Liao soldiers still showed timidity.

"These barbarians are so capable of fighting!" Yelu Dashi was secretly frightened, "No wonder the bravery of the Tokyo Dao soldiers and horses were repeatedly defeated by the Jurchens." He raised the Qianli Mile Mile Mile and looked forward. There seemed to be something unusual on the artillery towers that had just fallen. The gunner was rushing to aim the artillery towers at this side. Yelu Dashi's face darkened, and he called the guards, pointed at the artillery towers in front and said, "Let Yelu Guan lead his men and horses to rush forward and execute all these rebels!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of cannons, "Boom!" "Boom!" Dozens of artillery shells shot out from the position at the same time, landing among the dense Liao army. Wherever the shells passed, there were wailing everywhere. The stone bullets were powerful, as if they were pressed down on Mount Tai. When they fell, they were covered in blood and blood. The iron bullets seemed to be small, and they flew out an arc in the air. Whenever they were rubbed and touched by it, they had broken limbs and hands. One of them was even beating a few times, penetrated more than a dozen Liao soldiers, and their lethality was much greater than the huge stone bullets. The Liao army and Jin soldiers were originally crowded in front of the second camp. When they were shot down by this round of artillery, the front suddenly became loose. Many Liao soldiers were not afraid of hand-to-hand combat, but they were avoided and the shells that would die when touched were terrified.

"Okay!" Zhao Xingde praised excitedly, pointing to the sun and moon flag that symbolizes the Emperor of Liao, "Focus on full speed!"

The gunmasters did not dare to neglect. After adjusting their aiming strategy, they immediately urged the gunners to load the ammunition again. At this time, in addition to the original fourteen three-inch cannons, there were also eighteen heavy artillery in the Liao army. The effective range of thirty-two heavy artillery was enough to reach Yelu Dashi's camp. The artillery gunners in the Xia Kingdom and Han army were loading very fast and were accurate. When they bombarded the enemy camp, they were as if they had bombarded the targets in advance. Chai Yi saw it and secretly admired it. He had already commanded his men to bombard the emperor's imperial tent, and had no way out. At this time, he could only serve the Han army.

The Jin soldiers in front were helped by artillery, and their morale was greatly improved. Generals such as Wanyan Digunai, Wanyan Zonghan, and Wanyan Loushi were all personally held by strong men and led their followers to attack the Liao army camp. Under the fierce battle, the Liao army gradually could not support it, and some places began to retreat. The artillery shells fell one after another around the Sun and Moon Banner, getting closer and closer. Yelu Dashi stood under the Sun and Moon Banner without moving, looking at the cannon base with a blue face.

"Boom boom!" "Boom boom!" "Boom boom!" The cannon sounded again, and countless shells flew out of the black smoke over the heads of the Jin soldiers and fell into the Liao army camp. Because the shells were not flying fast, they could almost see clearly. However, as long as they passed, even if they were wearing heavy armor, they would either die or be injured. At this time, the Liao army was already frightened. When they saw the shells flying towards this side, they immediately walked away, "Run!" "Oh!" They cried and shouted to their mother and dispersed.

Because of this continuous artillery attack, the stalemate situation between the Jurchen army and the Liao army was immediately broken. Especially the Liao army, which had the most tenacious resistance and the densest military soldiers, suffered the heaviest blow. The Khitan warriors were not afraid of fighting face to face with the enemy, but facing the artillery shells that could not be resisted and were much more powerful than the bed crossbow, the morale of the army had been overdrawn to the limit. If it weren't for Yelu Yanshan, Guo Baoyi and other generals who were desperately maintaining the army and retreating, they would have probably collapsed.

"The enemy's artillery is powerful, please retreat for a while!" Yelu Yanshan, covered in blood, rushed back and advised loudly, "The country cannot be without His Majesty for a day!" Yelu Dashi looked at the generals who were lying on the ground, and was silent for a moment, then looked ahead. The Liao army's defense line was constantly collapsed, and arrows and shells were flying over their heads. A cold air covered their whole body, and Yelu Dashi had a slight premonition rising from the bottom of his heart.

"Retreat? Or not retreat?" In a dilemma, the rear army suddenly came to report that Yelu Tiege had gathered the defeated troops and had gathered more than 10,000 cavalry to attack the Jin soldiers. The rear army commander Yelu Bijie used the rear army camp to build a camp. Because the second camp was within the range of the Jin artillery, the Privy Council envoy asked His Majesty to retreat and urged the troops to defend the third camp.

"Okay!" Yelu Dashi ordered the generals in a deep voice: "You lead the army to retreat first, and I will lead the palace guards to cut off the rear!"

"His Majesty!"

"This is a military order!" Yelu Dashi's face darkened. It is not easy to retreat in front of the enemy. In the current situation on the battlefield, in addition to fighting for favorable camps, the Liao army and the Jin soldiers also fought in open areas. If they were chased by the Jin cavalry, it would be very likely to cause a situation of collapse for thousands of miles. The Sun and Moon Banner is a symbol of the Khitan Emperor. Once the Sun and Moon Banners move, the morale of the military will inevitably be shaken. Therefore, in addition to Yelu Tiege leading ten thousand cavalry to charge, Yelu Dashi personally cut off the rear and urged the palace tent army to guard the various camps so that they can ensure that they temporarily resist the Jin army and complete the retreat in front of the enemy, so that most of the Liao army can retreat completely into the third camp.

Yelu Dashi insisted on cutting off the rear personally, and the generals of the Liao army did not dare to persuade him again. Yelu Tiege also led tens of cavalry to rush up from the rear army, stepping out of the smoke and dust along the way. The Khitan cavalry along the way made way. After this new force entered the battlefield, the offensive of the Jin army was stagnant, and the Liao army began to slowly retreat.

The commander of Yelu Guan, the sushima commander, had five thousand elite cavalry under his command. After receiving the order to attack the Jin army artillery building, the whole team had already left the camp. At this time, seeing the Liao army retreating one after another, Yelu Guan couldn't help but hesitate. Although the cavalry under the banner of Yelu Tiege was on an attacking posture, His Majesty's Sun and Moon Flag did not move, as long as each unit retreated smoothly, His Majesty and the Privy Council envoy of the North Court would retreat. If the troops of Yelu Guan still followed the order to attack the Jin army artillery building, they would become a lonely army. No matter whether they could attack or not, the ending would be in danger.

"Instead of attacking tight artillery bases," Yelu Guan said to the deputy general, "It is better to wait for the enemy to advance with iron barrel cannons. When defense is inconvenient, use iron cavalry to attack in the middle of the gap, and you can win a great victory!" So, the five thousand palace cavalry troops did not attack immediately. The artillery bases did not retreat to the other Liao troops to the third battalion, but instead left the battlefield southward and waited for an opportunity to move. The Jin soldiers only thought that the Liao army was defeated and fled, and did not send troops to chase for a while. The Liao army stopped the horses and looked at the banner of the palace tent army and did not dare to stop them. The Liao army fought fiercely with 300,000 and 400,000 people from the Liao and Jin sides, and no one cared about the movements of the five thousand cavalry leaving the battlefield, and the reconnaissance cavalry under Yelu Guan's command had always observed the movements of the battlefield.

The artillery battalion of the Han army was unaware of this group of hidden wolves. Yelu Tiege could not stop the attack of the Jin cavalry. After heavy casualties, he had to retreat with Yelu Dashi. So far, the Jin army had successively broken through two camps of the Liao army, thirty-seven camps, with morale as rainbows, but the Liao army had not yet collapsed. The Privy Councilor of the North Court led his army to fight bloody battles. Yelu Dashi personally cut off the rear with the emperor's honor, which made all the Liao troops deeply feel. The generals of each army knew that this battle was related to the life and death of the Khitans. Although they did not retreat when facing the fierce attack of the Jin army, they recovered a little. After Yelu Tiege retreated, he immediately rectified the defeated troops and continued to arrange a new line of defense behind the third camp.

The Liao army was defeated one after another, and the Jin generals were all happy and urged Meng'an Mouke to continue to attack the third battalion. In the battle ahead, the artillery battalion played a key role in breaking through the Liao army's battalion. Wanyan Aguda ordered the artillery battalion to move forward again and bombard the third battalion of the Liao army. After a series of fierce battles, whether it was the Liao army or the Jin army, the original upper and lower system was already very chaotic, but the situation of the Jin army was slightly better than that of the Liao army. In addition to being tired of the soldiers, the morale was also very high.

Originally, the Liao army's iron barrel heavy artillery could not move on the battlefield at all, so Zhao Xingde could only move forward with fourteen three-inch cannons. He was worried that the original Liao army artillery gunners would send 500 spearmen to escort them to the back and hand them over to Tong Yunjie for supervision. When the Jin Dynasty attacked the Liao army's camp, the generals of each unit wanted to draw Zhao Xingde's Han army to assist, but they were rejected by Zhao Xingde. If it were not for this, the infantry under his command of protecting the artillery group would have been drawn long ago. The Jin generals also wanted to mobilize the soldiers of the Iron Bird Camp who had just revived the matter to attack the Liao army. In order to act, Han Ningshuang transferred most of the soldiers of the Iron Bird Camp to the rear formation under Tong Yunjie's command in the name of supervising and observing the surrendered soldiers to avoid being consumed on the battlefield.

On the battlefield, the Jurchen cavalry was originally responsible for the vigilance outside the battlefield, but after this fierce battle, in order to break through the Liao army's camp, Wanyan Aguda continued to put the Jurchen army into the battlefield with the dispatch of troops, and the Jin generals in front also continued to concentrate all their subordinates to attack the Liao army camp. As the entire Jin soldiers continued to win, the front line moved forward, and seeing that the victory was expected, Meng'an Mouke, who was originally alert on the outside, entered the battle one after another. The Five Thousand Palace Cavalry suddenly appeared on the battlefield again and rushed towards the artillery battalion in the marching, but was not blocked.

"Form a formation, form a formation!" Han army officer shouted loudly. The spearmen stumbled into a circular formation, protecting the gunners and Jurchen archers in the inner circle, and several cannons could only be abandoned outside. The Khitan cavalry were getting closer and closer, and several Jurchen cavalry with hundreds of cavalry tried to stop them, but were easily dispersed and defeated.
