Chapter 1161 Victory

The entire battlefield was as if it was washed by heavy rain, and it was in a mess. Human corpses and war horses were intertwined. Various broken limbs and broken arms were spread out at will. The grass on the ground had been crushed heavily and was held to the ground and could not rise up for a long time.

In Liu Guangyi's eyes, the background color of the battlefield is green grass, but it is covered with a layer of flesh and blood, which looks particularly strange and shocking.

"Is this the heavy cavalry? Sweeping everything!" Liu Guangyi exclaimed, and finally got some understanding of the Youzhou Camp, which the emperor attached so much importance to.

"With this army here, the other cavalry are overshadowed!"

"If you can command such an army in this life, you will be dead without regrets!"

However, although he sighed, everyone still did not forget the main business and quickly commanded the army to siege and kill.

After all, heavy cavalry cannot last long, and the pursuit and expansion of the results of the battle have to rely on them, such as the light cavalry.

In this battle, due to the mobility of the cavalry, the pursuit of the cavalry was not very smooth. The scared cavalry was not organized and could not form a formation. Fleeing everywhere was more troublesome than catching sheep all over the mountains.

The time lasted for two hours, from early morning to afternoon, when smoke rose up, and the cavalry who had been chasing for a long time returned to the camp one after another.

Li Jia stood on the high tower, standing there. At least in the eyes of the returning soldiers, bathed in blood, they could see the straight figure of the emperor at a glance. They became more and more excited and shouted long live from time to time.

Li Jia also waved her hand, responded, and then continued to stand with a smile on her face.

In his eyes, the grass-green earth was in a mess, with all kinds of corpses everywhere, and the sun was scorching everything. After the bloody storm, the strong smell of blood was irritating, which made him quite disgusted.

After the victory, the soldiers no longer had the strength to cheer. The flags inserted between the bodies seemed to be from the Khitans, and they were crooked, as if they were telling the cruelty of the war.

Many wounded soldiers were gathered together and were wailing in pain. They were all Tang people, and the Khitans had already finished the fight.

Even though the military doctor kept boiling medicine, soldiers continued to die over time, and then their hearts were sunk.

"It's a pity that there is no anesthetic and no so-called Mafei San. Pain destroys the will of the soldiers. This is the important reason for their loss!"

Li Jia sat on a stilt chair, straightened her body. From a distance, she looked like she was standing, straight, and he couldn't hold on for two hours.

"Veterans are the most critical property!"

However, while sighing, he couldn't help but feel happy.

The head-on defeat of the Khitan cavalry gave the entire Youzhou a huge shock. The soldiers who were honored with military achievements were all heroes in his eyes.

Apart from the cavalry outside the city, Youzhou City is a bird with broken wings and can only be slaughtered.

Thinking of this, Li Jia seemed to hear the call for victory and the angry actions of the Khitan nobles going to Beijing from afar.

Youzhou City is already a beauty who takes off her clothes. If you only have the last hug, you can reap great happiness.

"Report to Your Majesty, our army won a great victory in this battle. The Khitan barracks outside the city were no longer available to defend and were forced to abandon them. The more than 5,000 cavalry were captured, and about tens of thousands of Khitan cavalry were killed. There were less than half of them fleeing."

Li Huai excitedly reported the result inexplicably: "There are nearly 10,000 scattered war horses, and the rest of the food, grass and supplies are incomplete. This time it is a great victory. It can no longer be stopped outside Youzhou City from threatening our siege."

"Have you calculated the loss?" Li Jia smiled and asked softly.

"Nine ten thousand cavalry members were killed or injured in each unit, and the Youzhou Camp, which only lost more than 500 people, still had huge and powerful combat capabilities!"

"Hahaha!" Li Jia smiled, looked at Yang Shifan's face with an uncontrollable excitement, and couldn't help but pour a basin of cold water on his face, and said, "This time it's the Khitans who have never seen Youzhou Camp, so they choose to fight head-on, which means they have suffered heavy casualties. Next time, they will not have such good luck."

"Yes, Your Majesty is very much!" Yang Shifan calmed down and said in a deep voice.

Hu Yanzan and others cast envious eyes. This time, Youzhou Camp had occupied the main attack, and these people became foils. It was really unpleasant!

"There is no soldiers outside Youzhou City, but it has become an isolated city. If it is sunny tomorrow, it will be the end of Youzhou City!"

Li Jia smiled calmly and said, "But don't relax too much. How can you know that the reinforcements will not come?"

...

Thousands of cavalry returned dejectedly, and tens of thousands of cavalry were only these individuals left. Xiao Siwen instantly felt like he was struck by lightning, half sad and half regretful.

"The eagle on the grassland never thought that it would be a shame to defeat the Tang people!"

Yelu Dilie said angrily that he still found it difficult to accept this fact for a while, and he had been above the Han people for decades, giving him a strong sense of honor.

Even if he was defeated by the Tang people at Yanmen Pass, he blamed him for sneak attacks. Now he is head-on and such a crushing defeat, which is really hard for him to accept.

On the side, Yelu Xizhen and Xiao Talin sat down to see success or failure, and their views were more objective. Xiao Talin said bluntly: "The Tang people are very strong, and they are beyond expectations. The cavalry is no longer far from us."

"That's right!" Yelu Xizhen sighed and said, "I heard that the Tang army fought thousands of miles from south to north and absorbed the Central Plains imperial guards. It can be said that they are strong and powerful. Youzhou City is really dangerous."

Xiao Siwen didn't say much, and he had to prepare for the fight. As for reinforcements, it should be soon to go to Beijing.

After Yelu Xian ascended the throne, he continued to appoint Yelu Wuzhi and others, and then he also attached great importance to Han people such as Gao Xun. As for the private officials such as Han Kuangsi, Nuli, and Yelu Xianshi, he was quickly promoted.

Thanks to Yelu Jing's desperation, the Khitan nobles did not reject Yelu Xian's advance, especially because he gave many killed nobles apology, which aroused the favor of many people.

In Yelu Wuzhi's opinion, Yelu Xian is enough as a great khan, at least stronger than Yelu Jing.

"Khan, I'm afraid the army that rescues Youzhou will not be able to go!" Yelu Wuzhi said softly.

"How is that possible?" Yelu Xian said in disbelief: "Youzhou is the lifeline of the Khitan, how can it be abandoned at will?"

Besides, Yanyan is still there, how can she give up?

"Khan, news came from Liaoyang Prefecture that there were thousands of Tang troops who had already set foot on the territory and conquered several states and were threatening Liaoyang. Once Liaoyang was captured, the consequences would be unimaginable."
