Chapter 399 Breakthrough (Part 2)

Xiao Jinde really didn't expect that the Song and Liao coalition forces trapped in the valley would not retreat but advance in such a desperate situation, and gamble to attack their own camp.

You should know that no matter how time and time the people and the other are actually not on the side of this coalition trapped in the Jedi, their troops are only half of the external troops, and they have been hungry all day long, almost all of them are injured. Once they take the initiative to attack, even the last advantage of the geographical advantage disappears. How could they take the initiative to fight out like a death?

In Xiao Jinde's judgment, they would only guard the valley, or retreat at night to try to escape from the place. For this reason, he had even sent a team of 100 people to cruise and patrol the outside of the valley. Once the opponent had any intention of evacuating and escaping, they would notify him in time, so he would chase him and completely annihilate the enemy in one fell swoop.

Even if they do not retreat, they will just wait until tomorrow when Xiao Jinde subdued Yelu Sibuda's subordinates and gathered them together, and they will attack the entire army and encircle and annihilate the soldiers and horses in the valley with the force of Mount Tai. He even thought about how to deal with Tong Guan and Yelu Xiongge, so that the Liao Kingdom would believe that Tong Guan, the Song man, suddenly attacked and killed Yelu Xiongge and Yelu Sibuda. He turned the tide and killed the despicable Song army. Then he could take the opportunity to seize the power of Nanjing and lead the army south to fight with the Song army...

All the scripts were ready, but unexpectedly, the actor Sun Tu didn't mean to act according to the script and chose a path that looked even more crazy and dangerous. He actually led a few hundred people to the military camp, and he actually wanted to break through!

What's even more troublesome is that in order to pursue the enemy in time, Xiao Jinde's camp was only two or three miles away from the entrance of the valley. This was just a matter of the blink of an eye for the war horses charging at full speed. Things did develop like this. After defeating the team of 100 people who were not prepared in one fell swoop, Sun Tu led his army into the camp without hesitation. At this time, the Liao soldiers in the camp had just woken up, and many people had heard the sound before they even picked up their weapons and drove out of the camp.

The soldiers who were vigilant did not react slowly and immediately raised their swords and guns to fight against the cavalry that rushed over with all their strength in infantry battles, and they were completely crushed one-sidedly. At this time, the Liao cavalry didn't care about being facing their own tribes. They roared and swung their swords to kill. The enemy on the opposite side had no power to resist, and they were all slashed on the spot with one knife. They didn't even reduce their horse speed and continued to advance, which was really a rainbow of momentum.

But Xiao Jinde was also a powerful general in Nanjing, Liao Kingdom. Even so, he quickly reacted in anger and ordered one by one: "The left army immediately sent troops to delay the obstacles, and the archers shot them. Their troops were limited, and they were just a fight. As long as they blocked their first round of offensives, they could get rid of them here! In addition, they immediately sent Xin Sibu to his troops and let them attack from the side immediately to block the enemy!"

The general is the soul of the soldiers. Whether an army can remain calm in the face of danger is the main general's response and nature when facing the battle. Xiao Jinde was obviously a qualified general, and he did not feel confused at this time. After some command, his troops quickly came out of the chaos and began to block Sun Tu and the others' attacks at all costs.

Even though the coalition forces had tried their best to advance with the most fierce killing method, after overtaking more than a hundred enemies, as the waves of arrows flew over, their speed of advance finally slowed down.

Seeing this, Sun Tu felt helpless. After all, they were tired troops after continuous battles. Even though they had aroused Yu Yong for a while, they still became the last step after facing the ten times of the enemy's full force. It was impossible to break out from the enemy's front.

What's even more terrifying is that not only these Liao soldiers in front of them have gradually begun to suppress their homes in terms of momentum, but also soldiers and horses gathered quickly in another camp next to them. Obviously, another army will soon launch a side attack from the side, and then the entire army will be trapped and killed in this camp.

At this time, as the battle deepened, many people were already weak, and they were killed by the continuous attacks of the surrounding enemies. Only less than 200 people were left when they attacked.

Sun Tu immediately made a judgment, and it was impossible to continue moving forward. Without being able to retreat and there were a large number of enemies in the east about to surround and kill them, breaking through to the west became the only correct choice. So, in the middle of the team, he immediately ordered loudly: "Change the left arrow of the formation and kill them!" While speaking, he had already turned his horse's head first, rushed to the west with a gun.

At this time, the Qingzhou army finally showed the strong discipline and combat power of the Qingzhou army. Before those Liao troops who were fighting together understood what Sun Tu meant, the dozens of Qingzhou army had quickly turned around, followed Sun Tu's steps, and while turning into a sharp knife, he rushed towards the west like a sharp knife.

The front arrow formation is the most conducive to breaking through the siege among many formations, especially when Sun Tu, a master in the army, rushed to the front with the lead and waved the spear in his hand and opened the way, they continued to kill forward like a sharp arrow.

Here, the Liao army was still guarding against them to continue to attack the south, so they deployed heavy troops in this direction. Unexpectedly, Sun Tu suddenly changed the direction of the rushing and led his army to rush to the weakest west side. He was killed off guard and was torn apart.

Sun Tu didn't dare to be slow at all. He immediately took the lead in breaking out of the encirclement and continued to rush forward. Two Liao soldiers slapped their horses and waved their swords to stop them, but Sun Tu quickly swung his gun and killed them on the spot. This did not slow down his momentum in advance.

At this moment, the benefits of this heavy rain were reflected again. The Liao people's bows and arrows were soft and weak because of the moisture. Now they have been shooting continuously and are no longer able to use them. Several waves of arrows hit from behind and cannot pose any threat to the Qingzhou army that is sprinting with all their might.

With just a moment of rushing, they finally broke through the enemy's encirclement and came to the open space in front. Behind them, the situation of the Liao people who reacted slightly slowly was extremely dangerous. After the enemy had already reacted, they were quickly surrounded, and only thirty or forty people rushed out, protecting the man pretending to be Yelu Xiongge.

Sun Tu had no intention of turning around and saving them again, and the Song army had no ability, so he made a quick decision to lead the army to continue running forward.

Seeing this change, Xiao Jinde from the rear was so anxious that his eyes were inflamed and shouted in anger: "Continue to chase me, even if I chase it to the horizon, don't let them run away!"

With his order, the Liao army with more than a thousand people did not care about anything else. After quickly killing more than a hundred trapped Liao soldiers, they all chased to the west. The Sibuda army, who had just moved, did not dare to slack off any longer, and the thousand men followed closely.

In this dark night, an extremely rare scene appeared in the open plain area. A team of more than 100 people was running in front, and more than 2,000 people were chasing them in the back. As long as someone fell behind, they would be killed on the spot. This reduced the number of soldiers running in front. After running out for more than ten miles, less than 100 people were left...

This time, the breakthrough seemed to have failed. The Song and Liao coalition forces not only did not get rid of the enemy's siege, but instead put themselves in a new danger. But when Sun Tu saw the two thousand enemies chasing him, he smiled happily on his face. At least his other plan was successful. After attracting all these enemies to his side, the valley was safe. Tong Guan and the others left from the rear, they could even leave Xifeng Valley directly from the front.

The fact was just as Sun Tu expected. After two thousand Liao troops chased Sun Tu and the others all the way, Tong Guan and others who had previously hid in the depths of the valley finally took action. However, they did not dare to take the risk of getting out of the valley from the front, but chose to quietly get out of the valley from the other side, and then look for another way to turn back to Nanjing.

Although this will make them take a big detour, at least this will be safer. Who can guarantee that the enemy has not arranged hundreds of people to guard the valley?

After chasing each other for several miles, the situation became more and more conducive to Sun Tu and the others' escape. As time went by, although people were constantly behind and killed, the real distance between the two sides became larger and larger. In terms of horsepower pursuit, they were not as good as escapers.

In fact, this is also a key factor that was ignored by both sides. As the king of the South Court, Yelu Xiongge's horses were better than Xiao Jinde and Yelu Sibuda. Moreover, since they were attacked and retreated to Xifeng Valley yesterday, their mounts have been left in the depths of the valley and have not continued to fight. However, Xiao Jinde's cavalry had just arrived today and was already a little tired. Now they are pursuing with all their might, and they are actually at the end of their strength.

So, as time went by, Sun Tu and the others distanced themselves from the enemy. If they continued to run like this, they might be able to really get rid of the enemy and escape from the sky.

Seeing that the situation was getting worse, Xiao Jinde's eyes were already in tears and immediately roared: "Catch up with me, don't let them run away! Ping'er, shoot them at me!"

The young man who had decisively shot Yelu Sibuda in front of the two armies before, immediately responded loudly after hearing his order, and then raised an extremely huge longbow on the horse, controlled the war horse with his legs, and steadily drew the bow with his hands. He aimed at the most eye-catching one among the escapees ahead - "Yelu Xiongge".
