Rebirth: Overthrow Song Dynasty

Chapter 526: Ice and Snow Grassland 3

To the northwest, the Khitan team is still moving forward.

They have been walking for several months. At the beginning, they were still walking while grazing. In the end, when the weather gradually cooled down, their speed slowly picked up.

They originally thought that after returning to Shangjing, they could go south with the Jurchens and Mongols, but now the Jurchens and Mongols have been wiped out by the Song army! They have no allies, only themselves!

Yelu Dashi rode on the horse and followed the team forward, his eyes were still very firm, without the slightest fear!

From birth to now, he has experienced too many things! When he was just born, the Liao Kingdom was still the most powerful country in East Asia, and the surrounding countries had to pay tribute to the Liao Kingdom, including the Song Dynasty, which had to hand over a large amount of "year-old coins" every year. As for the Jurchen, it was only a subsidiary of the Liao Kingdom. Lower races! When he was young, he won the imperial examination and became the number one scholar. He became the only Khitan number one scholar in the history of the Liao Kingdom, and he became the number one scholar after the Khitan royal family. Unexpectedly, the good times didn't last long. When he was twenty-eight years old, the Jurchens began to rebel, and he didn't take the Jurchens seriously at the beginning. The entire Liao Kingdom didn't take the Jurchens seriously. Under the leadership of Wanyan Aguda, the Liao Kingdom came to an end in just ten years! During that time, he served as a Jiedu envoy and a general. He once led troops to fight against the Song army that "joined Jin to destroy Liao", and also fought against Jin soldiers! He was once a prisoner of the Jurchen, and later escaped! In the next ten years, he led the Khitan tribe in the northwest to flee all the way to the remote Central Asia, and survived through hardships!

Even knowing how powerful Song Jun is, he has no fear in his heart, he just becomes more cautious!

"It's less than two hundred miles away from Hedong City!" A Khitan general followed him, laughing.

"Hedong City, where the Wugu and Dilie tribes used to graze. It is the pasture of our Khitan people. Now we are walking on the grassland of our hometown." Yelu Dashi nodded slightly.

In fact, after they arrived in Fuzhou and Zhenzhou, which is now in the Ulan Bator area of ​​Mongolia, they have already returned to the hometown of the Khitan people! From Ulaanbaatar to the south, there is the former homeland of the Liao Kingdom!

After arriving here, although there is no other scenery on the grassland, there are only patches of snow, but Yelu Dashi feels that everything is so kind and beautiful!

This is his hometown, and after returning here, he never wants to leave here again!

He looked forward and vowed secretly that he would take his clansmen to Liaodong, and then lead more clansmen in Liaodong to recover Daliao!

In fact, in the original history, Yelu Dashi led 70,000 soldiers and horses back from Central Asia in 1134, trying to restore Daliao. It returned to Central Asia again, and then Xiliao was established.

It is now 1133, and Yelu Dashi went south one year earlier than in history, but the number of soldiers and horses he led was much larger than in history! Because this time he was relocating with his family, all the people he took away ten years ago came back with him, and all the men in the family were warriors! In this Khitan team, the total population is close to 300,000, and the number of fighters has reached 140,000!

"Everyone hurry up and try to reach Hedong City as soon as possible! After arriving at Hedong City, we will rest there." Yelu Dashi said.

The sky gradually darkened, and the grassland became extremely cold. The Khitan team did not stop, but kept walking, they wanted to reach Hedong City early.

By midnight, the speed of the Khitan team was getting slower and slower, and many Khitans could no longer move.

However, at this moment, there was a faint "rumbling" sound from the south!

"Not good!" Yelu Dashi was a little drowsy at first, but he was awakened immediately after hearing this voice.

"Khan, what's the matter?" Several cavalrymen nearby asked hurriedly, they had not yet heard the sound from the south.

"A lot of cavalry are coming from the south, hurry up and gather our army!" Yelu Dashi said.

After a while, the entire Khitan team was alarmed, and the Khitan fighters had already started to gather! The Khitans have adopted the Jurchen system in recent years, and the army is divided into more than ten thousand commanders, and under the ten thousand commanders are thousand commanders, centurion commanders, etc. The command system is far better than before.

The sound of "rumbling" from the south became more and more clear, and the Khitan people couldn't help but get nervous.

"About four to five thousand people! Yeluxi, you lead a team of 10,000 people to see what's going on?" Yelu Dashi said.

A middle-aged general beside him nodded in agreement! This middle-aged general was none other than Yeluxi, a ten thousand commander in the Khitan army.

Right now Yeluxi led ten thousand Khitan soldiers towards the south.

The cold wind was howling on the grassland, and they moved forward with the wind at a very fast speed. After two quarters of an hour, they finally met the cavalry that suddenly appeared in the south!

Just as Yelu Dashi guessed, there were indeed four to five thousand cavalry in the south. From the starlight in the sky, it could be seen that they were all dressed as Han Chinese! This is a Song army!

"It's the Han people! The Han people actually appeared here! But fortunately, they only have four to five thousand people! Come on, let's go and destroy them!" Yeluxi said immediately.

"General, we need to send someone to inform the Great Khan!" said a centurion beside Yeluxi.

"Okay! You go and inform the Great Khan! I will lead the army to wipe them out! They only have four to five thousand people, and they are Han Chinese, so they are not our opponents!" Yeluxi laughed loudly.

Although Yelu Dashi was very cautious about the news that the Song army defeated Jurchen and Mongolia brought by Yelu Yilie, and he was unwilling to confront the Song army directly, but ordinary Khitan generals still did not take the Song army seriously.

At that moment, Yeluxi led ten thousand Khitan troops and rushed towards the Song army, but before they could reach the Song army, the soldiers of the Song army turned their horses and fled towards the south.

Yeluxi followed closely behind, and Song Jun kept running away.

Half an hour had passed, and Yeluxi still hadn't caught up with the Song army in front. They were already more than twenty miles away from the Khitan army.

"General, we can't continue to chase! Poor bandits don't chase after him!" said a lieutenant beside Yeluxi.

"We are about to catch up with them, how can we give up now?" Yeluxi said.

"The Han people are cunning, maybe we will be ambushed." The deputy general said.

A hesitant expression appeared on Yeluxi's face, and at this moment, horns suddenly sounded from all directions!

Hearing the sound of the horn, Yeluxi froze there, and the surrounding Khitan soldiers also froze there!

"No, we were ambushed by the Han people! Leave quickly!" Yeluxi said hastily.

He was about to return along the original road with the Khitan army, and at this moment, Song troops appeared in all directions!

Yue Fei personally led an army of 100,000 to come here, and almost all of the 100,000 army has been thrown into battle at this moment!

Yue Fei led 10,000 soldiers and horses to pass straight through the Khitan army, dividing the Khitan soldiers and horses into two halves, and then 100,000 Song troops encircled and wiped out the two halves of the Khitan army!

"Resolve the battle within two quarters of an hour, don't let an enemy leave!" Yue Fei said.

He led soldiers and horses to continuously intersperse and attack from the Khitan army, dividing the Khitan army into small pieces, making it impossible for the Khitan army to act in a unified manner.

It's just that the fighting power of the Khitan people surprised Yue Fei!

The fighting power of these Khitans surpassed that of the Mongols, and they were not inferior to the Jurchens when they went south to Kaifeng!

At the beginning of the battle, under Yue Fei's command, the Khitan people fell into a disadvantage, they could not form an effective command, they fought on their own, but everyone fought back desperately like a wounded beast!

However, the strength of the Song army far surpassed them, and with a world-renowned general like Yue Fei as its commander, after a quarter of an hour, the shouts of killing became quieter, and after two quarters of an hour, the Khitan army was completely wiped out by the 100,000 Song army!

"The Khitan people have given us some credit! A mere 10,000 people dare to leave the main force so far. They are really not afraid of our encirclement and annihilation!" Zhang Xian came to Yue Fei's side and laughed.

"After the Khitan experienced the calamity of destroying the country, they have tasted their courage. Now their strength should not be underestimated. They can almost catch up with the Jurchen in the early years! Let's not be careless!" Yue Fei said.

"Of course I understand." Zhang Xian said.

"Let's go, let's continue to follow the Khitan army." Yue Fei said.

At present, Yue Fei, Zhang Xian and others led an army of 100,000 to continue heading north.
