Mythical Beast

Chapter 305 Skyfall

Hearing others shouting and seeing the dark Liao army on the plain, the Song army had no intention to take care of more than 2,000 people. They didn't have time to reorganize the formation, didn't have time to obey the command, and tried their best to save their lives in this chaos!

The muddy land was gradually stained with blood. This exhausted army collapsed instantly after meeting a large number of tiger and wolf divisions of the Liao army. Even if Cao Bin and others killed the hasty fugitives, they could not revive their morale and rearrange their formation. In desperation, Cao Bin had no choice but to lead his own guard to break one in person. On the road, he fled to the Juma River with the defeated troops.

In fact, at this time, the soldiers sent by Yelu Xiuge and others were just cavalry. Tens of thousands of troops are still 50 miles away from the army on the East Road. If they turn to attack and revive morale, they may be able to devour the advance troops led by Yelu Xiuge, but at this time, the soldiers almost did not obey the command and wanted to escape from this place. , let alone gather to defend and counterattack.

In this way, here at Qigouguan, the army was chased and killed by Yelu Xiuge in the rainstorm and mud, and defeated the army all the way to the edge of the Jima River. Seeing that Yelu Xiuge was gradually moving away from him, Cao Bin finally couldn't help turning down and get off the horse and glared at the sky. For a moment, he was silent. Suddenly, he only heard him ask: "Deputy Cui What is the casualty situation of our army?

Cui Yanjin hurriedly ordered to go on. After a while, the data came up. Cui Yanjin said to Cao Bin, "General, our army has been killed and injured... more than 10,000, five deputy generals, and seven thousand captains have been killed in the battlefield. Among them, Liu Baoxun of Youzhou Zhizhou died..."

"Enough! Cao Bin has never been defeated so tragically in his life. In the past, I led 100,000 troops to go on an expedition, and today there will be such an end! I'm sorry for the emperor's high expectations, and I'm sorry for the ancestors of the Cao family! These soldiers who died in the war, their bodies are soaked in the rain. What the injured soldiers can do is to wait for the arrival of death. As a commander, I am duty-bound to thank the world for now!" After saying that, he did not hesitate to pull out the sword he carried with him and wiped it around his neck!

Li Jixuan, the deputy general beside him, saw that Cao Bin had long been dying in his eyes, so he had already paid attention to Cao Bin's every move. As soon as Cao Bin pulled out his sword, he grabbed Cao Bin's hand and advised him, "No!" It's meaningless to die here, commander, you can't be impulsive!"

Cao Bin glared at Li Jixuan and asked: "Is it meaningless? Then tell me, what's the point of my life? Is it to cry in front of your majesty, then be adjoined by the ministers, and finally stabbed to death by your majesty? Instead of doing this, it's better to die here!"

All the generals immediately hugged their fists and begged for their lives. Li Jixuan hugged their fists and said, "General, please think twice! Our army is now facing a chase on the back, facing the waterway in the south, and it can't advance or retreat. Please ask the general to lead our army out of the siege. If the commander dies, the three armies will be ownerless, and I'm afraid that there will be more casualties. At that time, the commander-in-chief can't face the martyrs in this way!"

Cao Bin's body was shocked, and then calmed down and said seriously, "What Vice General Li said is very true. If I don't even have this courage, how can I be the general of the three armies? Please rest assured that even if I am beheaded, I must take you back to your hometown today!" After saying that, he stood up, continued to turn over his horse, and began to order the soldiers to resist the horse river overnight.

At this moment, a soldier suddenly screamed: "No, the Liao army has caught up!" For a while, more than 80,000 people who had just assembled collapsed in an instant, and a little confidence that had just gathered again was defeated in an instant. The soldiers did not obey the command at all. They jumped into the water desperately. You pushed me without military discipline. At this time, everyone had only one thought in mind, which was to reach the south bank as soon as possible. In their hearts, there is the representative of light and security at this moment, not far away. Brother Yelu Xiu smiled and looked at this group of Song Jun who fled crazily and licked his lips slightly, as if he saw the delicious food that was about to enter the mouth. He did not let the hungry soldiers behind him wait for too long. With a wave of his hand, the soldiers behind him Like a hungry tiger, he rushed to the Song soldiers...

However, Tang Longyan crossed the mountains with a thousand dragon cavalry and finally arrived in Zhuozhou on May 7, but when he was less than 20 kilometers away from the city, he suddenly raised his hand and made everyone stop. No one spoke. Everyone knew why Tang Longyan suddenly stopped them, because in the air A smell of blood gradually permeated. The heavy rain and the wind roared. Tang Longyan turned sideways and asked Yu Hanxin behind him, "How do you feel? Are you tired?"

Yu Han shook his head, but frowned and said, "Brother Long Yan, I feel that the front is full of sadness, as if many lives have disappeared in an instant under panic and helplessness."

Tang Longyan nodded gently to her and comforted, "It's okay. As long as we pray for them in our hearts, they can hear the piety in our hearts, but you promise me that I will give you a surprise later, but you have to prepare for a long time, so you must never open your eyes before I allow it. Oh."

"Okay, Hanxin knows, Hanxin will listen to Brother Long Yan's words obediently." Yu Han raised the corners of his mouth, showed a sweet smile, and then closed his eyes. Tang Longyan waved his hand, and she was immediately taken to the center of the army by the dragoons.

Behind Tang Longyan, Huang Xinyue came up and asked, "Little brother, if you lied to her like this, will she believe you? The road must have been bloody all the way, and the corpses were everywhere. Unexpectedly, the Liao army's attack was so fast that only two months later killed the army on the East Road.

Zhou Tianyi sighed, came forward, looked at the road ahead, and sighed, "Although this is what General Yang never wants to see, there is nothing we can do. The Northern Expedition failed. There are too many soldiers gathered in Daliao. At this time, the army on the East Road was defeated, and the three armies could not gather."

"It's not just this time. I'm afraid that it will be difficult for me to think about the Northern Expedition in the future. This time, I have exhausted the elite of the Song Dynasty, and I still can't take back the 16 states of Youyun. I can only say that it's a pity." But Qin Leiming came forward and sighed with great emotion.

Finally, He Yanxin looked at Tang Longyan and asked, "Second brother, what should we do now? Should I return immediately, or will I rush over and catch Da Liao by surprise?

Tang Longyan sighed and said, "There are some things that you can't avoid. Xinyue, you should have noticed that there is a faint madness here. It seems that there should be a group of people from the White Tiger clan. The number is so large that they should have gathered into a team. However, there must be a person with good skills as the leader in the team can this team play a huge role. It seems that this Next, Huang Mingxiao or Huang Mingyao will definitely be in the army!"

When Huang Xinyue heard the two names, she frowned and then asked, "In this case, according to your opinion, there are some grudges to be solved. Let's chase them now."

Tang Longyan said, "After all, there are still tens of thousands of defeated troops in front of us, as well as Cao Bin and many other Song soldiers. We should not give up. The army obeyed the order and sprinted towards the Ma River as fast as possible!"

Cao Bin's troops forcibly crossed the river. At this time, the river was turbulent, and the soldiers may not be washed away by the river. Fortunately, the number of soldiers were huge, but they could help each other across the river, but Yelu Xiu would not give such benefits to the soldiers of the Song Dynasty. The cavalry behind him rushed towards Cao Bin's army on the east road. The soldiers were immediately scared and pushed each other. For a while, they were washed away by the river and trampled countless people.

After finally escaping to the south bank, Cao Bin took a breath a breath. He was busy to count the death and injuries, but could not listen to the next report: "The army has been killed and injured, the escapees, and the whereabouts have been more than 30,000. Cao Liuli, a Kaifeng soldier, was involved in his father and son, Kong Yi and others, the primer of the palace, drowned in the river. The rest of the leaders and deputy generals, a total of 23 It's unclear."

More than 100,000 troops have gone on an expedition, but now, there are only more than 60,000 people left. When Cao Bin was about to look up to the sky and sigh, suddenly, a large group of Liao troops rushed towards them in the river! This time, Brother Yelu Xiu seemed to have stared at Cao Bin, as if he would not stop by taking him!

Seeing that the situation was critical, Vice General Li Jixuan immediately ordered 2,000 guards and punched Cao Bin and said, "The last general has been fighting with the general for many years, and he has the heart to die in the battlefield. Today, the general is in danger. The last general is willing to resist the Liao army and buy time for our army. I hope the general will not apologize again. For the sake of the last general, please Protect yourself and lead our army back to your homeland. If so, you will die!" After saying that, he hugged the people slightly and turned around and rode away. Li Jixuan deserves the name of a fierce general!

Although Li Jixuan is brave, the soldiers behind him are also infected and bear the will to die, but after all, there are only more than 2,000 people behind him. How can he resist tens of thousands of troops of the Liao army? His troops rushed into the Liao army, all of which were extremely fierce, but even so, there were fewer and fewer people around Li Jixuan. Gradually, the people of his troops fell one by one. In the end of the battle, Li Jixuan was injured in many places, and there were only about 20 people beside him.

Perhaps, he died here in such a glorious battle. Looking at the south, Li Jixuan smiled and was ready to die on the spot with the sabre in his hand. At this time, he suddenly felt a restlessness in the back of the Liaoning army, as if something appeared in the rear of the Liaoning army.

"What, a group of mysterious troops appeared behind our army? What is this? Are you all rubbish? How many people are there in that unit and what kind of weapons? Don't know? You bastards!" Yelu Xiuge was very angry in the face of the news. Seeing that it was the trend of harvest, a mysterious team suddenly appeared, which messed up all the plans.

Can a strange soldier fall from the sky change the situation?
