I became the son of Renzong

Chapter 949
There are really not many war horses that cannot fight, and it is impossible to make up a fire horse formation.

Therefore, on this day, Beiliao decided to stop attacking the Song camp.

no way.

At the beginning, the war horses that attacked the Song Dynasty camp were all voluntarily filled by various forces.Now, those war horses have been exhausted...

"There are still more than 1000 horses that can be used in the fire horse formation. If you want to complete another charge, you must have at least [-] horses."

"Everyone has also seen that the fire horse array can indeed make meritorious deeds. Yesterday, some cavalry broke through the Song defense line."

"And Song's so-called unbreakable chariot has lost its shape, and it no longer has any defensive function."

"However, I can't waste such an opportunity arbitrarily. Now His Majesty is going north to intercept the Song Army in the northwest to buy time for the main battlefield."

"Now the time is very tight. I hope that my colleagues will raise more war horses as soon as possible for the Daliao plan, and use them in the fire horse formation."

"When we charge again, it's best to cooperate with the cavalry and fire horses to try to break through Song's defense line in one fell swoop and point directly at the camp of Song's central army..."

The pre-war commander authorized by Yelu Hongji when he left, Xiao Dabuya, made a solemn statement to the generals...that is, to the tribal leaders.

A clever woman can’t cook without rice. Xiao Dabu also led the three-day battle after Yelu Hongji left, and it really worked. Song’s defense line showed shortcomings...~
It's a pity that we can't take advantage of the victory to attack...~the horses are not enough.

"Marshal Xiao, it's not like I'm trying to shirk. Today's warriors don't even have three cavalry for one person, and even one cavalry is not enough for one person."

"Everyone knows that after this battle, many war horses in Daliao will be abolished, but even the ones that are about to be abolished are still war horses!"

"After breaking through Song's defense line, cavalry is still needed to rush in. Is cavalry without horses still called cavalry?"

"Marshal Xiao, that is indeed the case. In the current situation, it is really difficult to gather another five thousand horses. Your Majesty went north to block the attack, and it is standard for one man and three horses."

"In order to ensure the combat mission of His Majesty's personal conquest, His Majesty has already dispatched some horses from our subordinates. Now we really can't spare them."

"Marshal Xiao, the old man also knows that the formation of fire horses can make meritorious deeds. But the old man has also seen it. As far as Song Guo's current defense line of the Chinese army tent is concerned, a thousand horses may not be able to make meritorious deeds."

"The commander-in-chief also said that the cavalry is needed to cooperate with the fire horse formation to charge. We can use a thousand fire horses to open the way, and then the cavalry will follow closely..."

Xiao Dai didn't understand, it was already at this time, and they still had the idea of ​​keeping their own hands.

Why?To make meritorious service after breaking into the Song Dynasty's defense line?Or are you ready to escape at any time?

There are 50 troops, and a few said at the beginning that there are also 20, all of which are configured with one man and three riders.Up to now, you can't even make up [-] horses?Xiao Da didn't believe it either.

Although the loss in the early stage was indeed about [-] horses, it is really not difficult to gather [-] war horses now.

Not to mention the entire Daliao army, even his tribe, now they don't have to worry about collecting [-] horses that they don't need.

"You don't need to say anything. Your Majesty ordered me to stay behind and lead this battle. I want to break the predicament on the main battlefield as soon as possible. It is worthwhile for His Majesty to personally go out to intercept the new force of the Song Dynasty."

"Here, my commander will first draw a thousand war horses from my tribe to use in the fire horse array... You guys are all living and dying for the Daliao. I think you have your own calculations about what to do."

"I hope that, before tomorrow's [-] o'clock, all of you can send the horses that can be used in the fire horse array to the camp of the Chinese army..."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Da also left the tent.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see what the current situation is like. If they don't put their hearts together, then Daliao will really disappear...

But His Majesty is not here, and he is not a direct descendant, or in other words, the elite of the descendant has also been taken away by His Majesty.

With nearly [-] elite riders, His Majesty should be able to stop the three armies of Northwest Song, Yunzhou and Weizhou.

However, if there is no breakthrough in the main battlefield, how long can His Majesty stop it?After all, Song State relies on firearms. Even if it is a cavalry battle, once there is support from firearms, Song State will use firearms to open the way, and the cavalry led by His Majesty will not be able to block the army in the northwest of Song State, Yunzhou and Weizhou without limit. .

Fortunately, the Northwest Army is all from Dangxiang and Tubo, and it is impossible for the Song Dynasty to be equipped with firearms. However, the Yunzhou and Weizhou armies must be the main force of the Song Dynasty, and they must be equipped with firearms.

This battle is really difficult to fight. Only by breaking through the tent of Song Guozhong's army on the main battlefield, can it be possible to reverse the situation on the battlefield...

I hope that by setting an example, all the forces in Daliao can follow suit. When Daliao is alive and dead, they can put aside those dirty disputes in the court and focus on winning this battle wholeheartedly.

Daliao can't afford it!

The internal and external wars have been fought for two years, not to mention the cost of war horses, and even the rewards for the soldiers can't afford it.

Up to now, the entire territory of Daliao has been scrapped, but there is still a shortage of armaments and materials.

If the fight continues, without Song's attack, Daliao will fall apart!
Xiao Da is also very difficult...

……

"Report...Report to the official's house, the Northwest Army, Yunzhou Army and Weizhou Army have arrived at the designated location!"

In the palace account of the Great Song Zhongjun, a summary of today's battle situation has been completed.

According to the situation of the truce in the Northern Liao Dynasty today, it has been concluded that the Northern Liao Dynasty should be unable to gather enough crazy horses to attack the Chinese army's tent again.

This indicates that when the unified general offensive is scheduled to be launched tomorrow, Song Dynasty will have the upper hand.

The only uncertain factor is whether the Northwest Army, Yunzhou and Weizhou Army can arrive on schedule...

When I was worried, the report came.

"how can that be?"

First of all, you ministers and workers don't believe it.

According to the report of the Imperial City Division, Beiliao has sent nearly [-] elite cavalry northward to intercept the Northwest, Yunzhou and Weizhou armies, so as to avoid being encircled by the Song Dynasty to a certain extent.

Even if Da Song used firearms to open the way, it would be impossible to reach the designated location so smoothly.

In fact, on the side of the Song Dynasty's Central Army, the Northwest and Yunzhou Army no longer expected to arrive. Most of the Weizhou Army had already converged with Zhexing.

The Central Army of the Great Song Dynasty was already preparing to give up the feasible department overnight, and dispatched [-] elite soldiers to the north to respond in the north of the Northern Liao army, making the illusion of a large army encircling and suppressing, in order to shake the morale of the Beiliao army.

Didn't expect it to be like this...

"Could it be that the Northwest and Yunzhou armies have wiped out the troops that went north from the Northern Liao Dynasty? Impossible! According to the itinerary, we will arrive today. This is almost an unimpeded march."

"Chariot soldiers are not pure cavalry. Even if it is a flat grassland, it is impossible to reach the designated position at this time when there is a battle."

It's not just Zhang Dun who thinks so, everyone thinks so.

The imperial court has had absolutely accurate data on the marching speed of the chariot soldiers over the years.

Deserts, grasslands, plains, mountains and other terrains have all been verified by the imperial court.What kind of terrain has what kind of marching speed.

Including the comparison data of whether there was interception or not, the imperial court has also verified it.

Not to mention the Northwest Army, it is pure cavalry of miscellaneous brands, but the Yunzhou Army is different, it is a mixed army of chariot soldiers, infantry and cavalry...

Arriving now, it is completely at the speed of an extremely fast march...~
"Could it be that the news from the Imperial City Division is wrong?"

It is definitely impossible to make mistakes in the report, and the report between the army and the army has its own independent channel.

What's more, the bridge role of the Weizhou Army has already been played, and there is no possibility of mistakes.

The only thing left is the error in the Imperial City Division's discovery report.

"The intelligence of the Imperial City Division is not wrong. Not only the Imperial City Division, but also the scouts sent out have verified the report of the Imperial City Division."

Indeed, the scouts also reported that Beiliao sent troops to intercept the Northwest Army.

what is the problem?

"I think there are two possibilities. First, the Beiliao is planning to encircle. The Beiliao first withdraws [-] to [-] elite cavalry and goes north. After our Northwest Army, Yunzhou and Weizhou Army enter the battlefield, the Beiliao The army on the main battlefield turned around, forming a pincer attack on our Northwest and Yunzhou armies in the Great Song Dynasty."

"Second point, it is very likely that the elite cavalry sent by Beiliao belonged to the same faction. Seeing the advantages and disadvantages of both sides, these cavalry fled directly..."

"In any case, the current situation is beneficial to our side. We just need to act according to the plan... Tomorrow is the right time, all armies will abandon their defenses, equip new chariots, and coordinate with chariot soldiers and cavalry Advance!"

This is the case on the side of the Song Dynasty, but it is another scene on the side of the Beiliao...

Xiao Dai was standing in front of the camp of the Chinese army at Yinshi, waiting for his colleagues to deliver the horses as soon as possible.Behind him are thousands of war horses that he ordered to be drawn from the tribe.

A war horse that has not been fattened up for two years, no matter how cherished it is, it still looks skinny, as if it will fall down when the wind blows.Even the saddle dangled on the horse's back and couldn't fit at all.

This is the status quo in Northern Liao.

This is the one that the clansmen have been squeezing out their own rations and trying to preserve the fighting power of the horses. The previous one was even worse than this one...
It was almost Mao time, and a few people came here here and there, some with thirty or fifty horses, and some with one hundred and eighty horses. Fortunately, they all came with their horses, so they would not be uncooperative.

Xiao Dai is also thinking that today, as long as he can gather more than [-] horses, he will be able to break through the Song Dynasty's defense line... Just wait until Maoshi, when all colleagues arrive at the camp of the Chinese army with their horses, then they will be able to Start planning today's action...

"Report... Marshal Xiao, scouts and scouts, found a large number of Song troops fifty miles north of our army, nearly 20..."

Isn't this... His Majesty led the army to intercept it?Could it be that His Majesty has fallen?With this news, the chiefs of the tribes who were planning to hand over the horses to Xiao Dabuye hesitated again.Greet this subordinate, gather the horses together, and separate from Xiao Dabuye's horses...
How to do it, you must have accurate information before making a decision.

"Report... Marshal Xiao, the two wings of the Song Dynasty have withdrawn their defenses, replaced all their chariots with new ones, and started to advance towards us in coordination with the cavalry, less than twenty miles away from the forward battalion..."

This...isn't the state of Song always on the defensive?Why... it's not right!On the back of Daliao, that is, the Song army appeared in the north, that is, Song has already surrounded Daliao?

Think carefully and fear...

At this time, I am afraid that there is really only one way left for Daliao... That is, continue to charge the Song State's central army with a fire horse formation, and all the cavalry will follow closely, and resolutely break through the Song State's central army with the determination to break the boat. Army camp.

Only by breaking through the defense line of the Song State's Chinese army camp with an absolute superiority of troops, can it be possible to reverse the current situation of narrow escape.

"The generals listen to the order..."

"Report... Marshal Xiao, Song Guozhong's army withdrew its defenses, replaced all chariots, and advanced with chariot soldiers and cavalry in coordination, and has occupied our forward camp..."

"Marshal Xiao, the army of the Song Dynasty uses a full-coverage firing method of gunpowder bullets. On the way forward, they first launch a round of gunpowder bullets from a long distance with the vehicle-mounted crossbow, and then follow up with the god arm crossbow to launch gunpowder bullets. Then there are various launchers..."

"After the three rounds of gunpowder shells are fired, the chariot soldiers of the Song Army will launch various soldiers in front of them, replace the muskets, form a row of guns, and shoot three rounds of muskets at us... Then, the Song Army The cavalry began to charge."

"After the cavalry charged, they would first talk about launching a crossbow, and then throw grenades at our camp. After the grenade attack was over, the cavalry of Song State would shoot indiscriminately with short spears, and finally they would rush in with all their strength and kill what was left of our camp. Few cavalry."

"Commander, the vanguard battalion in front, after discovering the advance of Song's army, the whole team attacked, but within a quarter of an hour, the entire vanguard battalion was wiped out..."

This is not an announcement, this is an announcement of a funeral!

The forward battalion is the closest to the Chinese army, and the messengers can get the most detailed battle report, but this detail makes the entire Chinese army camp in Beiliao feel completely cold.

"Quick...quick... gather the war horses and attack Song Guozhong's army with a formation of fire and horses. Song Guo gave up its defense, and it just so happens that I, Daliao, can come and charge directly at Song Guozhong's palace tent~~"

Xiao Dai also shouted loudly... The generals have already assembled in the camp of the Chinese army, and the number of horses they each brought must exceed [-].Daliao still has the strength to fight!
"Marshal Xiao, the Song Army has already replaced all their chariots. The Song State's chariot defense is equivalent to the first day of the Daliao Dynasty when the fire horse array was implemented. At that time, it was not [-] horses, but nearly [-] horses!"

"The [-] chariots that failed to break through, is it possible to have [-]? My Daliao attacked with a formation of fire horses. The original purpose was to break through Song's defense line, and then let the cavalry enter. Now Song has given up defense. , you can enter directly with cavalry..."

Indeed!It's not because Xiao Dai didn't expect it, nor because he was panicked, but because he wanted to divert the attention of the generals from his Majesty's whereabouts.

Once the forces of all parties suspect His Majesty's whereabouts, there is no need to fight this battle... Even His Majesty has escaped, will you all still fight to the death with the Song Army?
"Everyone is reminding us that we should now divide our army and fight against Song!"

Xiao Da didn't want to just draw up tactics like this... In fact, there are no tactics.

"Marshal Xiao, I wonder if Marshal Xiao knows where the elite cavalry that His Majesty is blocking is at this time? Why is there a Song army in the north of our side?"

"Everyone, after His Majesty has led the army to deploy with the northern army of Song State, when the battle begins, His Majesty will attack Song State from behind!"

Xiao Dai is also very pleased with his brainstorm... He also hopes that His Majesty thinks so.In this way, it may not be impossible to break out of the siege of the Song Dynasty and escape from birth!
