Chapter 1536

After the discussion and determination, General Yelu Deshi led two thousand Heqing cavalry to the northwest, while Shide summoned his three thousand tribal knights and ran wildly towards the northeast.

However, the two thousand Heqing cavalry led by Yelu Deshi were too far north, and when Deliao led the Heqing army to a camp of the Northern Liao tribe.

This place had long become a hell surrounded by thick smoke and flames. The cattle and sheep were running around. The Khitans in the camp were wiping their tears while trying to catch the cattle and sheep back.

Unfortunately, almost all their horses were plundered, and only a few people were able to ride horses to catch the cattle and sheep that fled in all directions.

After Yelu Deshi inquired, he realized that just over an hour ago, the cavalrymen who were holding iron projectiles in their hands had already headed south.

A wounded survivor told Yelu Deshi that those people were from Song, not the Xixia people or the northern barbarians whom Deshi and others had guessed before.

"Yes, the villain heard them talking. The villain used to be an escort for a merchant who was trafficking goods in Song State and stayed in Song State for several months."

"Did you hear what they want to do?" Yelu Deshi took a deep breath, suppressed the urge to chase south immediately, and asked the dying survivor.

"The villain just heard that they had to continue walking south, saying that they wanted to burn all the tribes in the Heqing army within a radius of fifty miles and a hundred miles..."

Yelu Deshi took a deep breath and waved his hand to show that people would lift this lucky unlucky person down, playing with the horse whip in his hand, digesting the information provided by the survivor just now.

"It was actually the Song people. I didn't expect that those Song dogs were so despicable, but how could they appear here? Could it be that Ningbianzhou and Jin Su's army have been captured by the Song people?"

"Impossible. Ningbian Prefecture is so strong, and it is built between two mountains. If the pass is easy to defend but difficult to attack, if Song Gou wants to attack from there, then we will definitely know it as soon as possible, and have you not heard it yet. These vicious Song Gou clearly appeared from the north."

"After the north appears, will it be the despicable Xixia people who surrendered to the Song people? So they made way and let the Song people come over, and want to catch us off guard?"

Several generals and schoolmen around General Yelu Deshi were also speculating on the reason.

"General, within ten miles of radius, no enemy's body was found." At this time, the generals sent by Yelu Deshi to search the surroundings rushed back to report the report.

Hearing this, Yelu Deshi's face became even more ugly. He turned his head and looked at the surviving tribe leader, shouting loudly.

"There is not a single body. This is a camp with nearly a thousand young and strong people. Are all the young and strong people in your camp dead? They still hid in their mother's arms and went to breastfeed, but they didn't even kill an enemy."

"General, this is really no wonder we are. You have also seen it. Many of our warriors rushed out of the camp to fight the enemy. But those devils did not give these young and strong children a chance to fight face to face."

"The bows and arrows we shot were at least one or two hundred steps away from them, but their weapons could already shoot through the iron armor on our bodies. General, please see, this is the iron armor I was wearing at that time.

Look at the crack on it, this was caused by those Song Dogs who were at least two hundred steps away from us when I rushed out of the camp..."

"If I go half a foot further, then I, Neil Khan, will not have the chance to stand in front of you and talk to you now."

Yelu Deshi and other Liao generals and officers all looked at the breastplate raised by Neil Khan's guards. The very well-made iron armor was close to the shoulders. Several pieces of armor had clearly exploded, and the hole formed was still dry and blood stains.

This blood naturally came from the Neil Khan who had already slit his shoulders and had his arms hanging on his face with dissatisfied.

Yelu Deshi and others saw the pierced hole on this well-made iron armor, and they couldn't help but take a breath. At this time, he had no intention of ordering to go south to pursue.

Instead, while sending people to Heqing Junzhi, he sent capable and capable scouts to go south to detect the whereabouts of the enemy, while he stayed and asked someone to collect the dead and wounded people to check the wounds.

"It's this thing..." Finally, a strange projectile soaked in blood was taken out from the wounded man's wound.

Yelu Deshi narrowed his eyes, first washed the conical pointed metal projectile with water, then placed it in his palm and looked it carefully.

"It's so strange. It seems that this is made of melted lead and iron, right?"

"You mean that after the iron tube-shaped thing in the other party's hand was blasting out of blue smoke, it could break the iron armor and cause casualties, right?"

"Apart from about three hundred steps, you can break the armor and kill people... How did these Song people do it?"

The generals of the Heqing Army were all black and their expressions were shocked and palpitations were heard. More and more bullets were handed to their hands.

"These Song people seem to have invented a weapon with a range and lethality far exceeding that of Yuanyou Crossbow..." Yelu Deshi took a deep breath of cold air, and his voice was filled with deep fear.

"The other party is carrying at least 10,000 horses, so at least 3,050 horses should be at least 3,000 horses. Just because we, the two thousand Heqing Army, encounter such long-range cavalry, is not enough to see...

General, the last general thinks we should hurry back to Heqing Army and report to the general and ask the general to decide."

"Yes, General, we only have two thousand people, and these camps also need our help to put out the fire and rescue them. I will ask for help from these tribal camps. Otherwise, if the patriarch of the Tuliuyu tribe knew that we would not save him when we were dead, then we would not be able to pass the commander's level."

After all, everyone is from the Tuliuyu tribe. Although the patriarch was only responsible for civil affairs, the one responsible for military affairs was Yelu Yindishi, the commander of the Heqing Army, but Yelu Yindishi was still the nephew of the patriarch Yelu Shide.

"It makes sense. You bring 300 people here to rescue the camp and help the herdsmen collect the escaped livestock. We immediately rushed back to Junzhi to report to the commander."

After giving the order, Yelu Deshi ignored the crying and begging of the Khitan people in the camps, and led his 1,500 cavalry under his command and ran towards Heqing Junzhi.

The two thousand muslan cavalry led by Wang Yang did not go straight south, but went southwest for about a hundred miles, and stopped after reaching the shore of an uninhabited lake, and then camped here.
