The first prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 1678 Battle of Tanzhou ([-])
If it was in the past, the Liao army would never mess up its own position. Even if there was no order from above, they would chase their own self-help. This has been trained in normal training, but today is different.

A sudden explosion occurred while sleeping. Many people died without knowing what was going on. That's not counted. What's more serious is that there was a fire.

Moreover, the burning places were all civilian houses or soldiers' settlements, and the sky was full of fire.

These are all considered good. The Song Army has not been idle for a while after occupying Tanzhou, but is arranging these things. It is very clear how the whole underground trend is. Do you think that the Song Army spent so much time, It was a joke to use so much tung oil and gunpowder.

But at this time, there was a wind, and the wind gradually became stronger. The wind helped the fire, and the fire took advantage of the wind.

The billowing thick smoke covered the sky and covered the earth, and the city of Tanzhou was plunged into panic.

When most of the people died and the whole city was in chaos, a [-]-strong army would undoubtedly be a huge burden, and it would be difficult to retreat with too many people, that's for sure
These people retreated in a panic. They couldn't turn into roast suckling pigs, but they might fall down after a while, and then be ruthlessly trampled to death by their companions.

The casualties during the retreat were not small, within a short while dozens of soldiers were injured or died, which is a pity, Yelu Haowu looked very ugly seeing this.

At this moment, shouting and cursing loudly, a group of powerful heavy-armored soldiers held long guns. They were all armed, and forcibly opened a bloody passage through the crowded crowd.

These soldiers are fully armed, better equipped than ordinary soldiers. They are not ordinary soldiers at all. The weapons they use are all specially made. The origin of this group of soldiers should not be simple.

These talents are Yelu Haowu's personal guards, trained by Yelu Haowu himself, and they are responsible for protecting Yelu Haowu on weekdays, and it is rare to see them make a move over the years.

"These people are not worthy to be my Great Khitan's warriors. Anyone who is in such chaos will be killed on the spot." Although Yelu Haowu said to retreat, these soldiers really disappointed him.
As expected, these soldiers obeyed Yelu's martial arts words. They held long guns and looked at the chaotic people. Anyone who caused chaos in front of them would be mercilessly pierced by them, and even died on the spot.

What they did quickly aroused public outrage, but what all the soldiers could do was to find other ways to survive instead of stepping forward to fight them desperately, because they were the personal guards of King Yelu and they also resisted Can't live.

No one dared to rob him of his way of life, because the cold stabbing spear would send them to hell one step earlier.

"Your Majesty, don't slaughter. At this time, the military order is no longer valid. Let's withdraw from the north gate. If the Song army takes the opportunity to enter the city at this time, we will suffer a lot. Now the soldiers don't obey orders at all."

Xiao Tianzuo was also terrified when he saw Yelu's martial arts methods, his own people slaughtered his own people, this is a real deterrent, but it is not suitable at this time.

"Your Majesty, the north gate has been knocked open by us. Shall we retreat from the north gate immediately?" At this moment, the north gate was knocked open, and it took a lot of effort for them to break open the cement of the north gate. , it is not that they are planning to retreat.

"Beat the drums to cheer, and rush into the city now. I think it's almost anywhere at this time. It's the right time. Remember to kill the Liao army if you see it."

Zhao Xu also gave the order to attack here. Of course, they left one at the city gate, and at this time the Song army mixed in the city had already opened the city gate, waiting for the Song army to enter the city.

Zhao Xu also estimated that the current situation in the city is almost the same. It should be a mess now. The timing is just right. The soldiers of Song Dynasty have long been unable to hold back. He has been resting for the past few days, and now it is just right Can come in handy.

The heavy drums combined with the shouts of the soldiers, the whole world seemed to be under the control of the Song Dynasty, and the gates of the city were no longer guarded by the Liao army, because they were busy retreating all the time, this group Song Jun rushed in and dealt them a devastating blow.

"It's too late to retreat now. Gather up the soldiers and prepare to meet the enemy. It is these damned Song people who made us so embarrassed. Our Daliao soldiers are all Khitan warriors. We must wash away our shame with blood."

The Khitan people still had a bit of arrogance in their bones, and the city gate was still filled with fire, but the soldiers who originally wanted to escape calmed down at this moment.

Since the founding of Daliao, they have never been in such a mess. If it gets out, they will have no face to return to their hometown. Their ancestors are so brave. They will be discouraged when they come to their own place, and they will quit. up.

After Yelu Haowu's scolding, they all stood in place soon, the flames reflected on their faces, it was hot, but none of them thought about retreating.

"The people of Song Dynasty are right in front of them, and they rushed into the city. When did our great Khitan warriors become cowards or cowards? Our Khitan ancestors never taught us this. They left it to us. It’s just a shroud of horse leather, when is it time for us to retreat without a fight, let me rush forward.”

At this time, Yelu Haowu was still in the mood to mobilize the soldiers before the battle. These soldiers really took this approach. After what Yelu Haowu said, their momentum quickly increased. Under his command, he began to fight the Song army.

"These soldiers of the Liao army want to fight like chicken blood, so hard, what happened, it stands to reason that they should be in a panic now."

When Zhao Xu saw the soldiers of the Liao army, they felt that they were in full swing. Could it be that his gunpowder and tung oil had no effect on them? This is unreasonable.

"Your Highness, don't care about them, we can eat them. They have suffered a lot from the loss just now, and we will definitely win."

Dong Zhenhai did not leave Zhao Xu's side. He had an important duty to protect Zhao Xu and never left him.

"Okay, I know, let's go meet Yelu Haowu now. If we can capture him alive, it will definitely be the greatest victory for us Da Song. Do you dare to come with me?"

"Wherever your Highness goes, I will follow him. Even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire, I will have nothing to say. Let alone Yelu is good at martial arts. Even if I go to capture the emperor of Liao Kingdom, I will follow His Highness."
