When Dou Shunqing saw that Yao Shouxin, the commander of the Gongsheng Army, came downstairs to Wangstou, he immediately ordered his personal soldiers to come up.

Upon the lookout tower, Yao Shouxin said: "The artillery was still accurate today, and the Khitans were seriously injured. Taiwei, according to my estimate, it will take long before the Khitans will organize their troops to attack your artillery position. Please also ask your subordinates to stick to the front and not let the Khitans attack."

Dou Shunqing said: "Don't worry, I am as solid as a sacrificial place. Every artillery position has heavy troops to guard, and there are reserves behind it. You can come forward to provide assistance at any time. Even if the Khitan concentrates the entire army to attack, I can defend it."

Yao Shouxin nodded, stood beside Dou Shunqing, and looked at the Khitan position filled with artillery fire in front of him.

After a while, Yao Shouxin sighed: "It seems that the Khitan will definitely be defeated today. When I was originally planning, I guess the Khitan could defend for five days. How could they defend like this? It's time to now, no troops have been sent to attack."

Dou Shunqing said, "I thought it was strange, but after watching here for a long time, I roughly saw that it was not that the Khitans did not send troops, but that there were really no soldiers to send. The Khitans on the opposite side gathered several times, but they all dispersed without the gathering."

Yao Shouxinqi said: "Hundreds of thousands of troops, although the artillery fire is fierce, the attacking military formations can always gather."

Dou Shunqing shook his head: "Taiwei, I just say that the Khitan has hundreds of thousands of troops, that's just a talk. Looking at the opposite side, there are only tens of thousands of soldiers at most. Those tens of thousands of people are probably under the command of the Khitan Kingdom and will not come out easily."

After hearing this, Yao Shouxin picked up the telescope and looked at the Khitan military formation opposite. As expected, it was what Dou Shunqing said, and he had been gathering the military formation. However, the Song army continued to fire. As soon as the assembly began, artillery shells fell into the military formation and soon scattered.

Shaking his head, Yao Shouxin said: "Why don't the Khitans surrender quickly? Keep it, it's just a death!"

Dou Shunqing smiled and said, "They were surrounded for dozens of days and were short of clothes and wear. In the end, they became like this? Our 500,000 army was besieged. We were cautious before, and they were probably able to defend for three days. Now it seems that the Khitans will be wiped out here without waiting for darkness."

Yelu Hongji watched the Song army's artillery shells explode in the positions, and the ground was filled with wailing wounded. He said angrily: "Why haven't you sent troops to seize the Song army's artillery for such a long time? Where is Yelu Yixin? Tell him that if you don't send anyone, you will take the head on his neck!"

Yelu Xiantong said, "Your Majesty, Yelu Yixin is not easy. The Song army is in full swing, and now we are going to die. The main force of the palace army must keep His Majesty safe and cannot go forward. The soldiers of the other army are afraid of death. In addition, the Song army's artillery is too fierce and they are bombarded before they are assembled. It is really difficult to deal with."

Yelu Hongji's location was at the center of the Khitan military camp, and the Song army's artillery could not be hit here. However, most of the military camps were within the range of the Song army's artillery and could not stay there at all. The Khitans were concentrated in the center, and they were squeezed outside because they had no choice.

The Song army surrounded the Khitan military camp for dozens of days and had already crushed the Khitan military camp into a long east-west strip. The two sides of the north faced the fire, with only a very narrow middle section without shells. Most of the military camps were covered by the Song army's artillery fire. The military formation that gathered attacks must be in the Song army's artillery fire. The ordinary army was already hungry and cold, so how could they work hard?

Seeing that the Song army's artillery fire became more and more fierce, Yelu Hongji said sternly: "Tell Yelu Hongji to send elite troops to fight! The Song army's artillery fire is so powerful that they can fire, how can there be a situation! The artillery in front must be knocked out. If one team cannot do it, then another team will be launched!"

Yelu Fairy Tong turned to No, sighing in his heart. The Song army camp on the opposite side could see clearly that hundreds of thousands of troops and thousands of artillery were not so easy to destroy? Not to mention now, it was not even when the Khitan army was in full swing. Now there are few major generals, how can we fight?

When he arrived at Yelu Yixin's residence, Yelu Fairy Tong said Yelu Hongji's words.

Yelu Yixin said: "King, there are only 30,000 soldiers who can fight now. I am afraid that they will be all trapped in one or two hours. This is the last force of the protection saint. Without them, it is hard to say what will happen then."

Yelu Xiantong said, "Of course I know. If I don't send them out, the other troops can't even gather the army. If the left and right die, the emperor has issued an edict. You should send someone to come forward. It is better to die on the battlefield than to be bombarded to death here."

Yelu Yixin nodded: "Since that's the case, I'll just send troops. But it's hard to say how much success the Song army can achieve."

After saying that, he ordered his personal soldiers to arrange for the palace army directly under Yelu Hongji to fight.

The Khitan palace army, also known as Daluo, is the true standing army of the Khitan. In the name of the palace, each palace is equipped with its own households, and as the emperor moves to nomadic people. Generally, the Khitan emperor and the in power empress dowager will have their own palace. After death, this palace will continue. The exception is Han Derang, who also has a palace due to his special status.

These palace troops have always been by the emperor's side and are the military forces directly controlled by the emperor. The Khitan emperor or the queen mother often attacked in person because of this military force. The strongest of them is of course the palace of the current emperor.

Yelu Hongji sent two thousand people to a group, a total of three groups, and ordered them to rush straight to Yelu Hongji's artillery position.

After sending troops, Yelu Yixin said to Yelu Xiantong: "King, the Song army directly faced the central army with nearly a hundred cannons. I see that there are many infantrymen in front of these cannon positions and it is not easy to break. Go back and tell the emperor that I will send troops with all my strength. The result can only depend on the will of God."

Yelu Xiantong sighed, and for a moment, she didn't know what to say, so she had to say goodbye and go back.

Yelu Hongji looked at the gathered military formation, and from time to time, artillery shells fell into the formation, and some people fell to the ground. Fortunately, they still had combat power and were not dispersed by the artillery of the Song army. This was the army he directly controlled, and many people even had an impression of it. Today, they could only send them to charge to death, and their faces were as deep as water.

The Khitan is a big country, the Khitan army is a strong army, and Yelu Hongji has always believed this since he was a child. When the Khitan army went south, the Song Dynasty must be afraid of obedience and had no ability to resist. At most, it was nothing more than that the Khitan could not defeat the Song State, gain some benefits, and retreated again. This time, this time, except for Yelu Tie not attacking Quyang, the army became a remnant army without winning a battle. Yelu Hongji could not accept this result.

How could the former world's most powerful country become like this when he was in his hands? Yelu Hongji couldn't understand. Hundreds of thousands of cavalry, which were enough to rampant the world, were actually beaten to this by the Song army. How could he explain to his ancestors?

Tan Yao commanded his thunderbolt formation and slowly drove forward. Five thousand infantry were followed behind, one to protect the thunderbolt, and the other to rush out of the enemy formation by taking the thunderbolt chariot, expanding the results of the battle. The convoy moved very slowly, firing a few shots, moving forward for more than ten steps, and then firing again.

While he was marching, Tan Yao saw through the observation hole that a Khitan army had been arranged and was coming towards him. He wiped his eyes in disbelief, and Tan Yao said, "Oh, the Khitan army is coming to us! Are they going to attack the Pili chariot?"

Tang Pu looked at it and said, "What I said is that the Khitans are really coming here. General, what do we do?"

Tan Yao said: "The Thunder Cart is covered with iron armor, and the Khitans are holding swords and guns. Do you want to break through? Let's wait here, and wait until their army comes up and go directly over with your left foot! The five thousand infantry behind them are not something they can deal with!"

What did the Khitan think about rushing the iron car with flesh and blood? Isn’t this car just like ordinary cannons if it’s not like a common artillery? Such a valuable weapon is really a bit of a loss. It’s just right for the Khitans to come.
