"Where did the enemy come from? Come on, go back to camp!"

A long time ago, some soldiers brought the horses, Yeluta got on the horse wildly, and rushed out of the city with his cronies.

When we arrived at the gate of the city, we saw countless Liao troops retreating from the barracks and rushing towards Yuewang City.

The leading general shouted to Yeluta Buye: "The Jin Army! The Jin Army is here!"

"Don't mess around, is it Mao Zilian? Hold on to me, and kill anyone who escapes!"

Yeluta Buye drew his waist knife and glared at the fleeing Liao army.

The hundreds of pro-army behind Yeluta Buye also drew their swords and transformed into a supervising team.

Mao Zilian's army is dominated by the Han army, which is comparable in strength to the Yelutabu field army. Why did these Khitan soldiers retreat so quickly?

Even the Han army can't stop me, am I the Khitan warrior already so useless?

Yeluta Buye and the hundreds of soldiers behind him couldn't believe the scene in front of them.

"General, it's the Jurchens!"

"The Jurchens are here! The Jurchens are here!"

"Thousands of Jurchen troops! Run away!"

The rebellious army cried out one after another.

Thousands of Jurchen troops!

Yelv Tabuye's complexion suddenly turned pale, and the nightmarish scene of Linhuang Mansion appeared before his eyes.

"General, let's gather our troops and enter the city to defend ourselves!"

A trusted general beside Yelv Tabuye remonstrated.

Stick to it?Can you hold on?How can such a small town be defended?

"Quickly tell me, where did the Jurchens come from?"

Yeluta asked the retreating Liao army not wildly.

"From the east, the Jurchen savages are coming from the east! I saw that it was the flag of the Wanyan tribe!"

As if to confirm the words of the defeated general, shouts of killing in Jurchen language sounded from the east of the barracks.

"Come with me!"

Yeluta Buye didn't hesitate any more, he rode his horse and abandoned the city, fleeing to the southwest of Raozhou City.

The most elite Wanyan tribe of the Jurchen army came suddenly like a ghost, Yelv Tabuye was frightened immediately, he left the city and the army, and at this moment only thought of escaping as soon as possible.

The main general, Yeluta Buye, abandoned his army and fled, causing the Liao army, which was already in chaos, to lose the last bit of morale.

In the Liao army barracks, more than ten thousand Liao troops gave up their resistance and followed Yelutabuye in disorder and fled.

"Kill! No one left!"

Wanyan Yinshu took the lead and smashed the head of a Liao general with a mace, roaring ferociously.

Behind him, the Jurchen cavalry brandished their knives and guns, slashing wantonly and defeating the Liao army.

Under the leadership of Ximenqing, Wanyan Zonghan's army sneaked to the vicinity of Yuewang City last night, but did not take advantage of the night to launch a surprise attack on the Liao army.

Although attacking the camp at night can cause greater panic and help quickly defeat the Liao army.But the confident Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Yinshu chose to stand still and wait for the dawn.

Because, although night raids can easily defeat the enemy army, it is not conducive to the complete annihilation of the army.In the dark, there will be more Liao troops escaping the pursuit of the Jin army.

Only in daylight can the fleeing enemy be seen clearly.But Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Yinshu are confident that they can easily defeat this Liao army in the daytime.

Therefore, the Jin army hid in the dark, waiting for the Liao army to bury the pot for cooking after dawn before launching a surprise attack.

Chapter 7 and Six

Although they looked down on the Liao army in their hearts, Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Yinshu never expected to break through the Liao army barracks so quickly.

Before the battle started, Wanyan Zonghan, Wanyan Yinshuke, and Ximenqing had of course collected information about the general strength of the Liao army in Yuewang City and who the main general was.

However, none of them expected that Yelv Tabuye, who was left behind in the Linhuang Mansion in Shangjing, would have been terrified long ago. He fled the battle as soon as the war broke out, and did not organize the Liao army to resist at all.

The situation of the battle turned out to be smoother than expected.

Chasing and killing the retreating enemy army is the easiest battle, almost equivalent to a one-sided massacre.

How many of the [-] Liao troops can survive in the end can only be hoped for by the horses under their crotches.

"Kill! Don't let an enemy go!"

Wearing iron armor, Wanyan Zonghan rushed into the rout of the Liao army, slashing left and right, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, unbeatable.

Jurchen generals Wanyan Xiyin, Wanyan Yinshuke, Wanyan Maji, and Wanyan Goying each led an army horse, chasing the Liao army all over the mountains and plains.

Yeluta Buye led hundreds of soldiers and rode towards Raozhou on horseback without looking back.

Yelv Tabuye always felt that the sound of killing behind him seemed to be getting closer, and he was so frightened that he beat the horse desperately with the whip, wishing he could fly away with his wings.

Regarding the sudden appearance of the main force of the Wanyan tribe's golden army, Yelv Tabuye didn't even think about sending troops to report to Xiao Yixue and Yelu Mage under the Linhuang Mansion, let alone fleeing to their army.

From Yelv Tabuye's point of view, since the Jurchens' main force has arrived, Xiao Yixue and Yelu Mage under the Linhuang Mansion are almost certain to lose.Fleeing to them at this time is tantamount to throwing oneself into a trap.

Yeluta Buye firmly believed that only by fleeing to Raozhou and then to Dading Mansion in Zhongjing, which is far away from the Jin army, can truly ensure safety.

At this time, there were more than [-] disbanded Liao troops behind Yelv Tabuye as human shields, slowing down the speed of the Jin army's pursuit.Yelv Tabuye and hundreds of his followers seem to have hope of escape.

However, when Yelv Tabuye and his party turned around a small hill, a group of people suddenly appeared in front of them, blocking their way.

I saw a battle flag erected in the army. The battle flag was made of bear skin, with the words "Ximen" written on it.

A handsome general came forward, wielding two knives, and said with a smile, "Liao dog tart is not wild! Where can I escape?"

It was Ximen Qing who led the army to block Yelutabu's way out.

Yeluta was not wild and did not dare to love to fight, so he turned his horse's head hastily and wanted to flee to the left.

"Khitan bird thief, master is here!"

"Jiuwenlong" Shi Jin rode a bay red horse, wielding a three-pointed and two-edged sword to kill the general.

"Kill! Kill!"
