Aspiring to the Ten Kingdoms

Chapter 276 The Beginning of the Decisive Battle of General Zhang Qiong
Yelujing clenched his fists, how could he not know that this was a trick?
But that is more than [-] livestock...

The milk of cows, goats and horses produced daily can meet half of the needs of the army.

This robbed the people of the Central Plains and almost declared the defeat of this battle.

The territory of Khitan was larger than that of the Later Zhou Dynasty, but the grasslands were vast and sparsely populated.

It is difficult for them to gather tens of thousands of servants to deliver food like the Central Plains.

Compared with using various equipment to carry grain, it is better to arrange hundreds of herdsmen to drive tens of thousands of cattle and sheep freely.

There is absolutely no need to consume too much manpower, material and financial resources.

Therefore, Khitan's logistics is mainly based on cow, goat and mare milk, with corn and wheat as auxiliary products.

Now that the cattle, sheep and horses are all gone, how can we get enough to eat with only corn and wheat?
The Khitan people are used to eating high-calorie foods such as cow's milk, goat's milk, and horse's milk, and they switch to foods such as grains, so it is difficult to feel full.

Without logistics, how can this battle be fought?
"Send someone to the military village to find out about the situation."

Even if Yelvjing knew it was a trick, she couldn't completely ignore it.

Turning his attention back to the battlefield, his heart sank even more. Iron Yaozi had a battle with Murong Yanzhao's front army, and his physical strength was a little exhausted.

When encountering the Longxiang Army of Dangjin, it was obviously at a disadvantage.

And that general of the Xi clan, Xi Nuo, who volunteered to kill Murong Yanzhao, was beaten to death by the enemy general with a pumpkin hammer:

After Zhang Qiong took the order, he led his troops to attack Xi Nuo.

Both of them are self-reliant and brave people, and they both take the lead in rushing to the forefront.

As a matter of course, the tip of the needle is right.

Xi Nuo's weapon is a bone, while Zhang Qiong's weapon is a mace.

Both are heavy weapons, and both of them are powerful generals.

Without any fanfare, the two rushed into the two-foot range of each other.

Guduo and Mace collided without any suspense.

In broad daylight, sparks were flying everywhere.

Both of them were backlashed by the strength, and they leaned back a little, and Guduo and mace also bounced in the opposite direction.

The two riders joined together and divided, and lost the chance to fight again.

They rode their horses past each other.

When these two armies confront each other, it is not uncommon for generals to be singled out, but it is often after two or three rounds of contact that if they cannot win the opponent, there is no chance. .

Especially for the quick confrontation between the two, there is only one chance to cooperate.

Seeing that he failed to take down the opponent in one go, Xi Nuo no longer insisted, gave up his speed, turned around and continued to challenge the opponent, and left his back to the enemy army, that would be too stupid.

He waved his bone to attack the oncoming knight of the imperial battalion division.

He is extremely powerful, Gu Duo just swept away the well-defended cavalry of the Royal Battalion.

After passing by Xi Nuo, Zhang Qiong ignored the Xi clan cavalry rushing in front of him, but took his gourd hammer from the horse's neck, turned around and threw it at Xi Nuo.

The pumpkin hammer hit Xi Nuo in the back like a cannonball.

Xi Nuo's whole body was paralyzed, and blood spurted out of his mouth.

Seeing that he couldn't survive.

The knight who rushed up from behind the imperial camp took another shot and knocked him to the ground.

Zhang Qiong didn't deal with the enemy in front of him in time, but sneaked up on the enemy general behind him, so that two Xi cavalrymen attacked and killed them.

One wields a machete, and the other, like him, wields a mace.

In the blink of an eye, Zhang Qiong resolutely abandoned the heavy mace in his hand, blocked the machete with his arm in one hand, and grabbed the lower end of the opponent's mace with the other hand, opened his arms and directly used the speed to throw it at the opponent's On the chest, knocked the two off their horses.

The machete left only a mark on his armor and did no damage.

The mace had already been taken by him, and he held up the iron rod and smashed it at the Xi cavalry.

Surrounded by Zhang Qiong's astute swarm, he caught Yelujing's distracted moment.

The imperial battalion division completely took the initiative on the battlefield.

Luo Youdu said: "The other party has received a big gift!"

Pan Mei said: "Nine out of ten! The other party's command obviously hesitated, and was half a beat behind."

"Then we won't give him a chance to recover!" Luo Youdu reckoned that under such a disadvantage, the other party had no choice but to send out the iron kite, relying on the combat power of the iron kite to save the defeat.

It's not that Luo Youdu increases the ambition of others and destroys his own prestige.

The opponent's iron kite really didn't just become an army for a year, and the Imperial Battalion Division Longxiang Army and Longwei Army who lacked combat experience could be compared.

"Hu Yanzan, Guo Tun! Liu Fu!"

Two riders and one person, jump out of the crowd!

"To!"

Both Hu Yanzan and Guo Tun were wearing heavy armor, shining brightly in the sun.

"The other party is the famous Khitan iron kite. They are kites, and you are golden eagles. I want them to know. No matter how fierce the sparrowhawk is, facing the eagles, they can only kneel down and beg for mercy!"

Sure enough, an iron kite with 3000 soldiers came out from the opponent's army.

These three thousand iron kites are already the treasures of the Khitan under pressure.

"let's go!"

Hu Yanzan and Guo Tun agreed loudly.

Three hundred heavy cavalry joined the battlefield.

"Liu Fu, cooperate with Zhang Qiong and Dang Jin, march forward on foot and ride straight to the enemy's formation!"

"promise!"

The six armies of the Yuying Division may lack combat experience, but their cooperation with each other is extremely tacit.

Whether it is step riding, step bow, or step bow riding, it can cooperate efficiently.

Glancing left and right, Luo Youdu said to the messenger beside him: "Send the order, the whole army will attack."

Luo Youdu looked at the opponent's army formation and knew that the opponent no longer had the courage to fight to the death.

It is human nature to seek good luck and avoid bad luck.

Yelvjing, who had lost her herd, knew very well that their chances of winning were getting smaller and smaller.

Unless Luo Youdu's [-] troops are wiped out on the banks of the Sanggan River, and then the food on the south bank of the Sanggan River is obtained, the ending will be the same.

This is their only chance.

Luo Youdu doesn't doubt that the opponent has the determination to fight to the end, but every disadvantage, every piece of unfavorable news is a kind of mental torture.

Is it for that tiny hope, to bet on the life and death of the entire army, to gain a chance of survival, or to stop losses and retreat in time?

As long as there is enough pressure, Luo Youdu believes that Yelujing dare not bet on the current situation.

Because the interior of Khitan is not monolithic.

Yelujing has been suppressing dissidents all these years, and he has never used troops abroad, which can be seen.

The other party is not a hero, he just wants to be his sleeping emperor.

He doesn't have the courage to win or die in the battle of Guo Rong and Gaoping.

Yelvjing didn't want to admit defeat, so she played her last hole card.

But looking at the scene where the infantry and cavalry on the opposite side came out together, and the heavy cavalry opened the way, there was only one thought in my mind, and the opposite side attacked by force.

Do you want to fight yourself?

When Han Kuangsi saw this situation, he knew that his lord was intimidated, and shouted: "Your Majesty, we still have hope, as long as Nanyuan Yili Jin (Yelu Wansi) seizes the food and grass in the Central Plains, everything will be fine Withdrawing the troops now is tantamount to abandoning Nanyuan Yilijin! It is not good for His Majesty's rule!"
