I became the son of Renzong

Chapter 919 Yelv Yixin's Counterattack

The imperial court has been paying attention to the siege of Yelv Yixin by the Northern Liao court.

At this time, there were not many people paying attention to the originally grand mission.Also, following doesn't help.When the court envoys arrived at Zhongjing Road in the Northern Liao Dynasty, they received very high courtesy.

It's a pity that we haven't entered the so-called discussion stage.

At this time, the Northern Liao court could not ignore the state of Song. Therefore, it was the best way to receive the envoys with high standards but not to negotiate.

The court of the Northern Liao Dynasty thought that when the siege ahead was over and Yelu Yixin's rebels were wiped out...by that time, they would be contacting the envoys of the Song Dynasty.

At that time, whatever you say is fine, and what you say is meaningless.

Killing the rebels like Yelu Yixin was the primary goal of the Yankee court. If possible, they also wanted to kill the families of the Beiliao rebels, preferably without leaving any behind.

When those articles from the Song Dynasty arrived in the Northern Liao Dynasty, it was a disgrace to the Khitan group!

As for the high-standard reception of the envoys of the Song Dynasty at this time... things must be prioritized. At this time, the army of the Northern Liao Dynasty is all in the north, and they have to temporarily appease the envoys of the Song Dynasty to avoid when the southern border is empty. The state of Song took advantage of it and entered.

Maybe the court of the Northern Liao Dynasty is laughing at the pedantry of the Song court!To rescue Yelu Yixin, sending troops to the north is the right way at this time, what envoys to send?
Although the Song Kingdom also heard rumors that a large number of troops were being assembled, with envoys present, the war could not yet be fought.As for the annihilation of the rebels, even if the Song State does not send troops, Daliao will settle some matters with the Song State...
All the calculations doomed Yelu Yixin and those rebels to have no way out.

No one expected that Yelv Yixin's part of the rebel army would explode with such a large combat power when they were finally cornered.

With the scale of [-] cavalry, even if it is an encirclement and suppression, it is impossible to trap all the troops in a small space where they can see each other.

What's more, it was still under the condition of being surrounded and prepared.

Therefore, the army of the Northern Liao court almost did not meet with the left and right armies, and it was difficult for the front and rear battalions to communicate.

This created an opportunity for Yelv Yixin's desperate efforts.

If you can't run, you can't run, but you can still fight.

Yelu Yixin first sent tens of thousands of fast horses to charge towards the north at a high speed, while more than [-] fine cavalry set up ambushes on the way of pursuit...

Yelv Yixin was very familiar with the cavalry of Daliao, and even the way of fighting in Daliao.

When the Liao army fought, every 700 to [-] cavalrymen formed a team, ten teams formed a team, and ten teams formed a team.There are coaches for teams, roads, and places.Each team took turns to kill the enemy's formation, without giving the enemy a chance to breathe, while their own troops could take a break.

This time to encircle and suppress them, the Daliao court recruited almost all tribal cavalry in the north and central.

This led to the uneven combat capabilities of the cavalry led by various ministries, which gave Yelu Yixin a chance to attack.

Moreover, Yelu Yixin also judged that the Daliao court had been guarding against the Song State and had always retained a certain amount of combat power.

Although the Pi Shijun had relieved of the duty of guarding the palace tents in recent years, all of them were handed over to the palace guards.

However, Yelu Yixin judged that after the general trend of encirclement and suppression was formed, the Daliao court would definitely not send the Pishi army to the field immediately.

How could a group of rebels fleeing in a hurry need the main force of the Pishi army?

What's more, when one's own side knows that they are surrounded, they can flee north...

Sure enough, the same was true. When Yelv Yixin was found to be fleeing northward, the Liao army immediately dispatched pursuers...

This meant that Yelu Yixin won the first battle of the siege.

The [-] fleeing riders turned back when they were thirty or fifty miles away, and the [-] fine riders who had already ambushed quickly formed an anti-encirclement against the pursuers.

The battle was fought in the dark, and it was not until the peripheral Liao army supported that Yelv Yixin led his troops to separate from the battlefield.

A battlefield with tens of thousands to tens of thousands of people, that is an area with a radius of hundreds of miles...~
The so-called encirclement was nothing more than the fact that the Liao army blocked Yelv Yixin's escape in all directions, and it did not mean that hundreds of thousands of cavalry directly faced the rebels.

Because, this is the beginning, and the deployment of the strategic space compression of the rebels has not yet been implemented.

"Yelü Yixin won the first battle..."

Since the Beiliao siege and suppression of Yelv Yixin, Zhao Xi started going to the meeting hall every day again.

After the external public opinion campaign is completed, the imperial court needs to seize the opportunity to send troops at any time.

The battle situation of the rebels like Yelv Yixin determined the decision of Song Dynasty to send troops.

Although it is already destined to send troops, but there still needs to be a famous teacher... that's how fucking.

But it seems to be the same in later generations.

However, later generations used this name to show other countries, and the Song Dynasty needed a name for the past when it was recorded in the future, and also to stop Shilin's mouth.

"From this first battle, it can be seen that Yelu Yixin is a great tactician."

In the cabinet, Wang Shao was the only one who had truly commanded the army, and only Wang Shao had truly led the army in battle.

Wang Shao could think about the battle situation at that time.

"The encirclement circle was formed, and when the troops of the Northern Liao court were not stable and their communication with each other was not smooth, they quickly made the illusion of fleeing northward, and ambushed the large troops...~"

"In this battle, Yelu Yixin can see that Yelu Yixin has a very accurate grasp of the timing of the battlefield and can make the most correct response."

Wang Shao's analysis is still very reasonable.

"Prince Wang, we all know that the most important thing for cavalry or infantry to fight in formation is morale."

"Now the rebel army led by Yelu Yixin is facing a big encirclement, it is very difficult to maintain the morale of fighting bravely. How did he do it?"

Indeed, a large siege has been formed, and there is almost no chance of survival... Don't say anything about death, there is no scruple.No one can be calm when facing death.

Knowing that he must die, the possibility of an outbreak of combat power is too small.

"This, I also wonder..."

"There is no need to doubt. If Yelu Yixin gave hope to the rebels, such morale would not be surprising."

Zhao Xi is relatively familiar with the inner battle, or in other words, mustering courage and unifying thoughts before the battle.

"Everyone knows it's a dead end. Where is the hope for the rebels?"

Wang Anshi also inquired.

"Yelu Yixin's hope for the rebels is not in Beiliao, but in Song Dynasty."

"In Da Song?"

It's not that I doubt the officials, it's that I can't figure it out.

This is the obstacle of knowledge. What you know and understand forms an obstacle to self-thinking.

"Just like the current public opinion in my Great Song Dynasty, everyone feels that the rebels have hope of survival...~"

"Officials, do you mean that the rebels only know that Da Song is running for them? But Yelu Yixin shouldn't have missed it!"

"What if Yelu Yixin thinks about it, but uses it in the opposite direction?"

Zhao Xi has to admit that Yelu Yixin is not only a master of tactics, but also a master of schemes.

Pity……
