"Bold! Sun Tu, you are so arrogant, you dare to speak like this!" The generals around him all changed their color and shouted loudly. However, Tong Guan, who was directly offended and asked by Sun Tu, only had a playful smile on his face, and he stared at him: "Mr. Yue, are you teaching me how to use troops?"

Although Tong Guan looked old and his body was not too strong, as soon as he opened his mouth, he had a powerful aura that was not afraid to be looked down upon. The subordinates and generals and counselors around him were scared to shrink slightly, and their faces changed again. However, Sun Tu, who was locked by his aura, did not see any fear at this time, and he still met his eyes and said loudly: "I dare not, the subordinates are just saying the facts in front of him. Now is the best time for my great Song soldiers to defeat the Liao army. If you miss the opportunity, I am afraid that we will all succeed and defeat the sinners in the future, and I will regret it!"

"Hmph, alarmist. In my opinion, the Liao army has not done its best yet. If it is killed at this time, it will be a big defeat!" A general next to him immediately retorted: "Mr. Yue, if you say this, have you colluded with Zhong Shidao and others long ago and want to use the lives of our Northern Army and the Imperial Army to save them?"

"Yes, I think you have a problem. The situation of the war is not clear at the moment, and the Western Army is rash and has been in a situation of hard fighting with the Liao army because of its greed for merit. If I send troops at this time, I am afraid that it will be the case with the Liao army! What is your intention to say this?"

For a moment, many generals around began to refute Sun Tu's statement and pushed him to the issue of collusion with the Western Army. This made Tong Guan even more suspicious of Sun Tu. He looked up and down at the young man who was cultivated and promoted by himself: "Sun Qianli, tell me, what are you thinking?"

Sun Tu smiled bitterly. Although he had guessed that such a result would be, when the matter officially happened, his heart was still filled with loss and helplessness.

Yes, why did the Song army clearly have an overwhelming advantage in terms of military strength and logistics, and the Song army still had an elite army like the Western Army that was enough to compete with the Liao army, but the Northern Expedition ended in a crushing defeat? Everything is now, the answer to this question.

From the commander Tong Guan to the generals, they all lost the honor and responsibility they should have as military generals. All they thought about was their own safety, honor and disgrace, and how to get benefits from this Northern Expedition at the minimum cost. More importantly, they also wanted to preserve their power and troops and take the opportunity to eliminate dissidents.

In Tong Guan's heart, the family of the family that never had the same heart as him was the dissident. As long as he had the opportunity, he would eliminate it at all costs, even if he would trap the last elite troops of the Song Dynasty, even if it would lead to the final failure of the war. Perhaps in his eyes, the threat of the Western Army or the family of the Dragon was far above the Liao people in the north.

As for the other people's ideas, they just need to follow Tong Shuai. Of course, it is best not to take risks and lead troops to fight the terrible Liao army. Therefore, with the Western Army fighting in front, no matter whether they win or lose, it is an excellent thing for them. As for asking them to send troops to rescue them? It is simply a delusion!

"I have told you very clearly that I just want to defeat the enemy!" Sun Tu narrowed his eyes, his mouth slightly raised, his eyes full of ridicule and disdain. At this moment, in his opinion, these people in front of him were not worthy of being called generals at all. They were just a group of tycoons who were blinded by profit and had no responsibility, and were in the army!

It was also at this moment that Sun Tu had no hesitation any longer. He had decided to change the course of this battle in his own way. Anyway, history has told him what the outcome will be, so no matter how he does it, it will not be worse than this, right?

At this moment, another burst of exclamations from the soldiers came from the front, which instantly attracted the attention of most people, including Sun Tu. Everyone looked at the battlefield over there, and then many people's spirits were also excited: "The Western Army actually has a backup plan!"

Yes, just when most people thought that the Western Army was about to pounce on the Liao Army and could only stop and protect themselves and eventually collapsed, but a group of soldiers suddenly broke out from the slanting sting, and it was actually a cavalry between 20,000!

Since the start of launching a raid on the Liao army camp but was repelled, this Western cavalry has not appeared. Whether it is the Liao army or the main force of the Song Dynasty in the rear, they all thought that Zhong Shidao and others had used the cavalry as infantry to fill the shortcomings ahead. But they did not expect that they had always hid this team as their last killer weapon and were suddenly released at this critical moment of life and death.

The cavalry was protruding, and the Liao army was shocked. There was a horn sound that immediately sounded, and the cavalry that was launching a raid to disturb the Western Army. If they wanted to use cavalry to fight against cavalry, they would have to entangle these cavalry first so that they would not harass their central army.

Moreover, they believed that as long as they could hold this cavalry for a long time, the Xuan-armored Iron Cavalry that had already circled the back of the Song army could quickly come and join forces to annihilate it. Therefore, although this Song army cavalry suddenly appeared, there was no way to deal with it. Just 20,000 cavalry could not change the direction of the war.

But the variable happened again when the Liao army quickly dispatched troops to intercept and siege. This cavalry, which seemed to be the last hope of the Western Army, did not come to their own central army as they thought. Instead, before the cavalry not far away blocked it, they turned and rushed towards the side, without any intention of confronting the Liao army.

"This is..." Yelu Chen, the chief general located in the Central Military Office, frowned deeply without realizing it, and he was a little confused about his intention. Is this cavalry suddenly broke out from the Song army formation but had no intention of fighting to the death. Is it to escape from the battlefield? Or is it that there are important generals of the Song army among them, who came out to protect this person and escape back to the south? But they threw the remaining tens of thousands of troops here?

This question lasted for a while and was replaced by a terror, because Yelu Chen suddenly realized that the other party had avoided the interception of his cavalry, and suddenly turned around, cut the main force of the Liao army and ran northward. After all, he was a Liao army general with rich combat experience. There was always this vision and prediction, and he instantly understood the real goal of this cavalry - they were not coming to the central army where they were, but set their targets at the Liao army camp behind!

In an instant, he had figured out everything. It turned out that the Song army had already made plans. All the previous temptations, strong attacks and hard defense were just empty moves, but the real killing moves fell here. When he was ordered to bring almost all the people and horses in the camp to annihilate the enemy in front of him, the camp behind had become empty. As long as the Song army could bypass the interception on his side, the camp and the head coach in the camp became the lambs to be slaughtered under their swords!

Think deeper, once the central army camp is broken and the commander generals such as Yelu Xiongge are beaten up by the Song army, the Liao army will inevitably be in chaos. At that time, the direction of the Song and Liao decisive battle will be reversed again!

The Song army's conspiracy must not be allowed to succeed! Yelu Chen immediately gritted his teeth and shouted loudly: "Send an order to let the front army retreat and intercept it, and he will intercept the Song army's cavalry at all costs!"

With the issuance of this order, several teams of Liao army, which were launching a fierce attack on the Western Army, retreated quickly. At the same time, the cavalry on the side accelerated their pursuit in a hurry, vowing to catch up with the enemy and block their offensive. The Central Military Office of the Liao army no longer cared for its own safety and sent nearly 10,000 troops to quickly set up a formation to intercept. At this time, the Liao army could no longer care about the tens of thousands of Western army in front of us, which were still fighting a desperate battle.

It was naturally impossible for Zhong Shizhong to miss such a great opportunity. With the wave of the flag, he decisively ordered the Western Army to go from defense to offense and pressed upwards across the line, which instantly reversed the passive situation. For a moment, countless Liao troops were killed and the offensive was even weaker.

In the camp of the central army behind, all the generals who saw this scene were stunned. Who would have thought that the situation of the war would suddenly change by 180 degrees when they were about to lose. Even Sun Tu was surprised. Unexpectedly, Zhong Shidao and others had such a ruthless move to seek victory in defeat and survive in death. The Western Army was indeed worthy of being the last elite of the Song Dynasty, and the two elders of the Zhong family were worthy of being the last two famous generals of the Northern Song Dynasty!

It turns out that they not only put their hopes on themselves, as an outsider, but also have the intention to win the final victory with their own strength. And as of now, it seems that this strange move is really possible to win in one fell swoop. Because no matter how powerful the Liao army is, it will never escape the weakness of an army since ancient times. Once the chief general is killed or captured, it will be the time when the entire army collapses.

As for Tong Guan, he was staring at the moment as the Western cavalry quickly tore up the Liao army's infantry's interception, and snatched the Liao army formation in front of the opponent's cavalry and continued to rush towards the rush. Because the Liao cavalry had rushed back and forth many times before, their horses could obviously not keep up with the speed of the Western army that had been raising their strength, and the distance between the two sides was still being widened step by step.

His expression became a little weird, and his heart was like a mess. I wondered whether it was better to be happy or disappointed. Because once it was defeated, the contributions to this decisive battle were all owned by the Western Army, and hundreds of thousands of people were watching him. He could not take away his face and take credit for his words. Moreover, he had just said that the Western Army had "self-decided" to fight against the Liao Army, rather than being ordered by his Tong Guan to send troops.

Perhaps the only way is to send troops to attack while the war is not decided, at least you can grab some credit.
