Chapter 147, Counterattack Horn

Li Yao listened and took Rong Yue's words to heart.However, now that they saw Rong Yuan and Rong Zhuang returning unscathed, some of the soldiers actually began to advocate not attacking the city.Li Yao kept Rong Yue's words in mind and still advocated attacking the city.

At this time, Rong Yuan remembered Rong Yue's words and said loudly: "The reason why we were able to escape back was because someone helped us. That person quietly set a fire in the Liao camp last night and destroyed the Liao army. All the food and grass have been burned down. Now that they have no food and grass, can they still fight? General King, now is the best time to send troops, and we will definitely catch them off guard."

Li Yao glanced at Rong Yuan in surprise, and then at Rong Yue.For some reason, Li Yao vaguely guessed that the person who helped Rong Yuan and Rong Zhuang escape was Rong Yue.He naturally believed Rong Yue's words.She said that the Liao army's food and grass were burned by fire, so it must have been really burned.

Who burned it?Li Yao actually thought of Rong Yue!However, he didn't know why he thought it was Rong Yue.

Some of the soldiers originally opposed the attack because Rong Yuan and Rong Zhuang had returned safely. When they heard that the Liao army's grain and grass had been burned, they all agreed to attack Liao City.In fact, they had endured the Liao army for too long. It was a lie to say that they did not want to attack. The main reason was that they were afraid that the Liao army would not be able to defeat them because of its strong soldiers and horses.

However, if the Liao army has no food and grass, isn't it a weakling?Of course we have to attack.

So, for the first time in history, the Wei army assembled its troops and sounded the clarion call to counterattack the Liao Kingdom.Under the leadership of the general Wang, the Wei army set off in a mighty manner and headed for Guiren City in the Liao Kingdom as quickly as possible.

The cavalry served as the vanguard, and under the leadership of General Wang, they quickly arrived at Quy Nhon City.

What Li Yao didn't know was that Rong Yue drove the Little Black Eagle to Qui Nhon City before them after they set off.She flies high and is a little black hawk, so most people won't notice her.The design of the middle belly of this little black eagle is a small hull, which is hollow.She is on top, and when others look up from below, they can only see the little black eagle flying.

It turned out that after Rong Yue poured kerosene on all the Liao army camps where grain was stored last night, they all caught fire, and the Liao people tried to put out the fire.However, the tent camp that had been doused with kerosene could not be extinguished by water, and the fire became more and more extinguished.As a result, the tents and camps where grain and grass were stored were burned to ashes, leaving only ashes.

In other words, the Liao army could only eat dirt.

The Liao soldiers were somewhat superstitious. Their food and grass were burned, and they remembered that the recent general King Yelumeng was killed by a musket.They didn't know that he was shot to death. They all said that it was a punishment from the gods, who burned him to death with fire.Now that the food was burned again, more and more soldiers became superstitious. It was because the Liao people had offended the gods.

After hearing what the soldiers said, Yeluji and Tian Ji immediately made three preparations in order to boost the morale of the soldiers.On the one hand, they asked the Empress Dowager of the Liao Dynasty for food support; on the other hand, they sent troops to plunder the people's food in Quy Nhon City; on the other hand, they quickly wanted to bring Rongzhuang and Rongyuan, and no longer planned to exchange them for Rong Jing's head, but It was necessary to immediately chop off their heads and perform a sacrifice with their blood to soothe the morale of the soldiers.

Who knows, when they went to pick up Rongzhuang and Rongyuan, they found that Rongzhuang and Rongyuan were missing.

So, they made trouble most of the night, and after resting for a few hours, they heard the deafening sound of horse hooves just after dawn.

A soldier on guard loudly reported: "Report! The Wei army is coming to attack us!" This was something that had never happened before.The Wei army has always been defensive rather than offensive, because they have many Liao soldiers and strong soldiers and horses. They are used to being invaders, and it would be good if the Wei army can defend.At this time, the Hou was actually invaded by the Wei army. In anger, Yeluji immediately ordered his troops to fight.

However, their food and grass were burned, and when they got up in the morning, all the soldiers had not had breakfast.Last night, there was another commotion all night long due to fire fighting. At this time, all the soldiers were weak and their morale was low.

Yeluji urgently summoned troops and horses. Because there was no food and grass, he planned to go out of the city to fight. He also shouted that the Liao army should defeat the Wei army and wanted to enter the city to steal the Wei army's food and grass.

He shouted loudly: "As long as we defeat the Wei army and rush into Wei's Laiyong City, do we still have to worry about not having food and grass? Our food and grass were burned, but their food and grass have just arrived. I heard that the Emperor of Wei conferred a title on himself A dying son, Li Yao, was appointed as the general king and asked him to lead troops to support Rong Jing. This is a great opportunity for us to capture Laiyong City in Wei State. They have come from afar, and we are waiting for work. Brothers! Rush out and fight with They fought hard! As long as we defeat them and cut off the heads of Rong Jing and Li Yao, we will have food and beauties, and we will have whatever we want! Kill all the Wei dogs, and the world will belong to our Liao Kingdom!"

Because the food was burned, Yeluji did not want to be trapped in Quy Nhon City. He also had one hundred thousand troops and horses, so he opened the city gates and led the troops to fight in person.He has been encouraging his soldiers, asking them to attack Laiyong City of Wei State with all their strength, to attack the city and seize land, to seize food and beautiful women, and to eventually swallow Wei State.

However, Yeluji still underestimated the serious consequences of his soldiers losing their fighting spirit because their food and grass were burned.After they left the city, they started a battle with the Wei army. The two sides were originally about the same strength, but Yeluji underestimated Li Yao's commanding ability.

Li Yao was not, as Yeluji thought, a weak general who was sent by the emperor to make up for his defeat.On the contrary, Li Yao, the great general, was more military-minded than Rong Jing, who had experienced hundreds of battles.He has been training troops these days and has already thought of a battle plan.

Li Yao was not arrogant. He had previously asked Rong Jing and other soldiers to study various tactics and contingency plans for fighting the Liao army.Because Li Yao was very open-minded and asked them for advice, Rong Jing and the other officers did not show off to the Fourth Prince and the General, and their conversation was extraordinary, so they did not hide their personal interests. They all expressed their opinions seriously and assisted Li Yao well.

Therefore, in this battle, the Liao army quickly abandoned its armor and had a large number of deserters.The Liao army suffered heavy casualties and its fighting spirit was weak, declining again and again.Seeing that he was undoubtedly defeated, Yeluji hurriedly retreated to the city.However, he had opened the city gate to fight before, but now it was impossible to close the city gate.

As a result, when the Liao army was retreating, the Wei army pursued the Liao army and even rushed into Quy Nhon City.Seeing that he could not defend Qui Nhon City, Yelu Ji had to abandon the city and flee, planning to turn around and lead his troops to recapture the city.

Rong Yue has been watching the battle from the air. Because the Wei army defeated the Liao army, she has not intervened in the battle.However, she wanted to avenge Rong Yuan and Rong Zhuang's hands and hamstrings when Yelu Ji cut off their hand tendons and hamstrings and howled in agony.

At this time, Rong Yue saw Yelu Ji retreating with a group of troops and was about to flee.Because the horses of the Liao army are indeed strong, if they want to escape to the neighboring city, the Wei army will not be able to catch up.

Rong Yue suddenly swooped down from a high altitude while driving the little black eagle, grabbed Yelu Ji on horseback, and instantly made the little black eagle let out an eagle cry and soar into the sky.After soaring into the sky, she struck out Yeluji's hand tendons and hamstrings like lightning, then let go, letting him fall from the sky.
