  Chapter 1029 Small Golden Soldier

"Datong City is a big city with a population of about a hundred thousand. The county seat is nearly 30 miles in circumference. The city is very tall and large. There is a huge warehouse city in the city. It turned out to be the supplies and grass collected by the Liao Kingdom on the Xijing Road. It is said to be able to supply ten Wan Dajun has eaten it for five years, and this time I went into the warehouse and saw a mountain of grain, grass and weapons."

   "How can you enter the warehouse?" Liu Kai asked puzzled.

   "There were about 20 local officials who went to report on their duties this time. Perhaps Wanyan Chaci wanted us to know the strength of Jin Bing and strengthen our confidence, so he let us visit Cangcheng, which we had never entered before."

  Liu Kai quickly searched for important military information from the opponent's words. The opponent's grain, grass, materials, and armor reserves were sufficient, and the opponent's coach asked the local officials to visit Cangcheng, obviously feeling some kind of crisis.

  In fact, Liu Kai has been sending scouts to investigate the intelligence of Datong City since last year. The city of Datong is tall and strong, with a circumference of 30 miles and no moat.

  Liu Kai pondered for a moment, then asked again: "You just said that Cangcheng is well-defended, do you mean that there is another army besides the 20,000 cavalry?"

   "It seems not. Wanyan Chaba is very suspicious. He doesn't trust the Han or Khitan people in the city. He didn't recruit the local army. Cangcheng is also guarded by his army."

  Liu Kai asked about other situations carefully, and then sent someone to send Luo Beichao out of the barracks.

   At this time, Liu Tie smiled and asked: "Brother, how do you think this battle should be fought?"

Liu Kai smiled slightly, "Actually, I really hope that the Jin soldiers will not go out to fight, but defend the city to the death, and then we will fight a siege battle, so that the Jin soldiers seem to occupy a favorable location, but in fact they lose their cavalry advantage, but I guess the Jin soldiers If they don’t do this, they will still come out, but they won’t give up the city easily, so even if they want to attack us, they won’t be too far away from the city.”

   "It means that we will not be in danger along the way?"

   "There will be no major danger, but we must be careful of the Golden Soldier squad attacking our logistics food team. The more the golden soldiers do not come out, the more small-scale attacks will happen."

  Liu Tie nodded, "Leave the logistics to me!"

   This time Liu Kai's crusade against Datong Mansion requisitioned more than 10,000 carts, full of grain and supplies, and followed the main force in a mighty manner, guarded by 10,000 cavalry.

  Liu Kai was right. After entering Yingzhou, the Song Army scouts found a small group of Jin soldiers, each with about one or two hundred soldiers, following the Song Army's logistics army on the periphery like wolves.

  Liu Tie tried to send troops to encircle them several times, but these golden soldiers were very cunning and couldn't catch them.

  This afternoon, the army was still about a hundred miles away from Ying County. Liu Kai saw that it was almost dusk, so he ordered the army to station there overnight.

  More than 10,000 carts stopped one after another and lined up closely together overnight, while the army was on the periphery to protect the carts.

At this time, Liu Tie was staring at a forest two miles away. The forest was about a hundred acres and very dense. It was less than one mile away from the nearest cart. If the Jin soldiers wanted to attack the Song army's logistics, that forest was the best hiding place.

   There was a sneer on the corner of Liu Tie's mouth, and his intuition told him that Jin Bing would definitely come tonight.

  He is ready to treat Jin Bing to a feast.

  . ． ． ． ． ．

   Time gradually reached the first watch, and Liu Tie was about to fall asleep. At this moment, a soldier pushed him awake, "General, wake up!"

"what's the situation?"

   "The Golden Soldier Squad has arrived."

  Liu Tie cheered up, and quickly asked, "How many people are there?"

   "About 300 people are hiding in the woods now."

   "How did they get into the woods?"

   "The other end of the forest is connected to a larger forest, which is more than ten miles long. They should come from there."

   Liu Tie immediately ordered: "Go and inform General Xiao, and act according to the original plan!"

  In just a moment, a cavalry force of 5,000 men arrived at lightning speed and surrounded the forest in an instant. Xiao Yun, the general of the cavalry, shouted: "People in the forest raise your hands, please don't die, otherwise"

  Before I finished speaking, a mace's arrow went' Whoosh! ’ shot straight towards Xiao Yun’s face, Xiao Yun turned his head anxiously, the arrow passed by his face, and actually wiped a **** groove on his face, causing burning pain.

  Xiao Yun was furious, "Fire the arrow!"

Five thousand cavalry shot arrows into the woods at the same time, and there were screams in the woods, and the black shadows jumped up and fled to the north. A thousand shield troops had ambushed in the north, cutting off their retreat, and a thousand soldiers raised their shields , forming a shield wall three hundred steps long, with spears in the middle of the shield wall.

At this time, the cavalry had entered the woods, and the remaining nearly 200 golden soldiers had no way to retreat, so they simply fought to the death, but unfortunately they were too few in number. After a while, the sound of fighting gradually disappeared, and the 300 gold soldiers who were ambushing in the woods All the gold soldiers were killed.

  Song Jun cleared the woods three times to confirm that no fish slipped through the net, and then the battle ended.

  Liu Kai also rushed over after hearing the news, and quickly stepped forward and asked, "What happened?"

  Liu Tie said triumphantly: "Caught a big fish, the Jin soldiers always wanted to attack the rear army, and they were surrounded by us tonight. They killed them all and earned 300 horses!"

  Liu Tie pointed to the distance, and saw dozens of soldiers of the Song army coming leading a large group of horses. This was a horse hidden in another forest, which was found and captured by the Song army.

  Liu Kai shook his head. His brother likes to play tricks. He stationed the logistics battalion close to the woods. It was obviously intentional to catch the golden soldiers, and these golden soldiers were actually fooled.

   "You are too careless, beware of being clever and being mistaken by cleverness."

   "How is it possible, I have thought so thoroughly."

   As soon as the voice fell, there was a sudden shout from the south, and then there was a fire, Liu Tie's face suddenly turned green, and with a loud roar, he rushed to the south with hundreds of cavalry.

  Liu Kai stared at the woods, and he suddenly ordered: "Burn the woods!"

   "Follow the order!"

Xiao Yun agreed, and immediately ordered the soldiers to set fire to the forest. After a while, the forest was ablaze with thick smoke. At this moment, a large group of Jurchen cavalry rushed out from the forest, thousands of them, and rushed towards the logistics convoy. Come.

  Liu Kai snorted coldly, "As expected!"

  He ordered: "Surround them and kill them!"

The cavalry led by Xiao Yun did not leave, they rushed up immediately and fought fiercely with more than a thousand cavalry of the enemy army. At this time, tens of thousands of soldiers also came from the main camp. The cavalry surrounded them layer by layer.

   At this time, Liu Tie came back from the south, his face full of shame. He knew that he had been hit by a trick to divert the tiger away from the mountain. If his brother's judgment was not correct, today's food and grass logistics would be over.

  He stepped forward and cupped his fists and said, "I'm guilty of a humble job!"

   "You know what big mistake you made today?"

   "Humble job. I underestimate Jin Bing."

"That's right! You underestimated the enemy today. Do you think the other party didn't see that you were stationed at the edge of the forest on purpose? The other party was just planning. The three hundred golden soldiers before were sent by the other party to paralyze you and make you think that the forest is safe. Then the enemy army in the south moved the tiger away from the mountain again, but the real main force went into the woods again, do you think the golden soldiers are so brainless?"

   "Convicted of a low position!"

   "You are indeed guilty, and you will be lowered to a second level of control. Remember today's lesson!"

Liu Tie felt sad, if he was handsome, he might not be demoted to his military rank. His brother was too strict with him, but Liu Tie was also convinced. He knew that if his brother hadn't arrived in time, the 100,000 troops would have to panic tonight Withdrew to the south, I thought I was smart, and I almost missed a major event.

  At this time, the battle gradually came to an end, the Jin soldiers refused to surrender, and all fought to the end, all one thousand Jin soldiers were killed, and the Song Army also paid the price of nearly a thousand casualties.

   Liu Kai's face was very serious. Twenty thousand people besieged more than a thousand Jin soldiers, and he himself suffered thousands of casualties. It can be seen that the fighting power of the Jin soldiers is still quite strong. If it is a one-to-one battle, the Song army may be defeated.

   Not long after, a scout commander came back and reported: "Report to Dutong, there are no more golden soldiers within a radius of twenty miles!"

   It seems that the small group of golden soldiers sent by Wanyan Chashi has been cleared away, Liu Kai breathed a sigh of relief, and ordered: "Continue to investigate, don't relax!"

At this time, the battle was completely over, Liu Qi urged to check the situation of the enemy army immediately, Wanyan Chaci sent out elite cavalry, but they were still wearing leather armor, and their weapons were good, they were the best standard weapons in the Liao Kingdom. Why not the iron armor I imagined?

   Liu Kai was really a little puzzled. Could it be that the 20,000 gold soldiers stationed in Datong Mansion were not Wanyan Xiye's core army?
