Xiao Yanping is not just a martial artist with martial arts skills. His military strategies, strategies and command on the battlefield are also deeply influenced by Yelu Dashi. He is regarded as a top general in the Liao army. Otherwise, he would not be able to lead an army on his own and go deep into the Song Dynasty to make such an impact. An important chess piece in the overall battle.
When he saw Sun Tu and the others coming down the mountain, although he was frightened and angry, he did not completely lose his mind. Therefore, while galloping forward, he decisively issued a military order, asking the rear troops to attack from both sides when they charged forward, vowing to completely annihilate this Song army that was still capable of fighting in one fell swoop, leaving no one behind!
These Liao cavalrymen were rich in combat experience and immediately understood their commander's intention. Naturally, they moved quickly and immediately surrounded and pressed them from both sides. In conjunction with the cavalrymen in front who had been dispersed by Sun Tu but not scattered, they immediately surrounded them on three sides. Launched a fierce attack on the Qingzhou Army that had just descended from the mountain.
The Qingzhou soldiers were united and fearless. They all roared and charged forward. They had also seen the situation between themselves and Sun Tu, who had broken through the obstacle earlier. At this time, there was only one thing left in their hearts. The idea is to gather around his general and fight with him.
And this choice is obviously the most correct. After all, compared to the thousands of cavalry recruited from the left and right, they had the fewest enemies in front of them. Although the hundreds of Liao soldiers were still superior to theirs, in the face of their full attack momentum, they were once again defeated. When a gap comes, I can rush forward quickly.
But just when they were about to succeed in killing and intercepting them, there was a hail of arrows from the left and right, and the Liao soldiers who were determined to keep them all here finally used their crossbows. At this time, the Song army could no longer resist. Although they were all brave, they were only flesh and blood after all. We were outnumbered and the enemy was outnumbered. The random arrows from the left and right were hard to guard against. In a short time, many people were hit by arrows and fell from their horses. The momentum was finally forced to pause, and they could only quickly form formations to protect themselves while shouting. The situation was already precarious.
Sun Tu's situation further ahead is not much easier than theirs. He can handle it if he fights with Xiao Yanping alone, but now he not only has to fight with this fierce Liao general, but also has to deal with the Liao soldiers constantly attacking around him. , which made him unable to go all out and could only passively focus on defense. Not to mention trying to burn those trebuchets, he couldn't even retreat and could only support himself hard.
Xiao Yanping was in high spirits at this time, and he shouted violently. He kept slashing and stabbing with the knife in his hand, attacking Sun Tu's vital points with the most ferocious killing methods, vowing to kill this powerful enemy. He would never be merciful just because there were people around him to help him. In a battle between two armies, there was only victory or death, so there was no such thing as a hero.
At this time, another soldier slashed Sun Tu's horse in the leg, but he quickly raised his reins to dodge, and then shot him in the chest. But before Sun Tu could draw his gun and come back, Xiao Yanping's knife had struck from the side again and hung directly on the side of his neck. Sun Tu was so frightened that he jerked his head. He didn't even have time to draw his gun. He just leaned over and let go of this fatal blow. But at the moment when this action was performed, Sun Tu's heart sank again, because he suddenly discovered that the opponent's sword was actually a feint. Before he could use his full strength, he actually took advantage of the opportunity of his horse to flip over and slashed diagonally. It turned into a downward slash, actually trying to cut him in two!
What a good Sun Tu, even though he was in such a desperate situation, he still didn't panic.
Amidst the roar, his feet quickly came out of the stirrups, his waist and back exerted force at the same time, and his body shot straight back like a swimming fish. He fell off the horse and landed on the ground just in time for the knife to hit him. He was in mid-air, with the gun in his hand already. Together with the people strung above him, he swung out fiercely. With a few bangs, he hit the Liao soldiers who had just come from the side and wanted to attack him. They all suffered broken bones and tendons. It was called flying out.
At the same time, his mount screamed miserably and was chopped down by Xiao Yanping, unable to get up again. Sun Tu's move was indeed beyond his expectation, leaving him no time to change his move. If there were not other Liao soldiers helping him just now, I am afraid that this opportunity would be enough for Sun Tu to hurt him. This made Xiao Yanping pay more attention to the opponent in front of him. He quickly turned his horse to look at it, pointed the bloody sword in his hand, and shouted: "You, General Song, really have some skills, tell me your name!"
It is said that the two have been fighting for several days and have been facing each other head-on for a long time, but Xiao Yanping still doesn't even know who the other party is. Originally, he really didn't have this intention, but now, after starting to pay attention to his opponent, he felt the need to inquire.
But Sun Tu ignored his question at all, because while he was sweeping away several people with his gun, he had already found a rare opportunity. The Liao soldiers were so frightened that they did not dare to outflank them for the time being. . He immediately let out a clear whistle, and as soon as he started to move forward, he charged forward with all his strength, his spear drawn like a dragon or a dragon, tumbling and changing, bringing up waves of phantoms, and stabbed directly at the enemy's men and horses.
Seeing this, Xiao Yanping also shouted loudly and immediately rushed forward to meet him. He raised the knife in his hand above his head, but he wanted to confront Sun Tulai head-on. However, he knew very well that the cavalry took advantage of the infantry. Even if the opponent's martial arts seemed to be better than his own, he would still have a great advantage in fighting like this.
In just a moment, the two of them met head-on. Xiao Yanping, who came with the momentum of his horse, roared again and cut through the air like a sword, hitting Sun Tu's head directly. But Sun Tu's spear was half a beat slower at this time, and because of the height difference, it seemed that his shot could only hit the enemy's mount, but could not damage it at all.
In other words, if this move is successful, Sun Tu will exchange his own life for the opponent's horse, which is really a disadvantage. Xiao Yanping's eyes widened, just waiting for the sword to hit the enemy. But at this moment, a warning sign rose in his heart. General Song in front of him was not an ordinary martial artist, and he was not completely desperate. How could he make such a mistake and give himself such a good opportunity?
There is fraud in it!
With this thought, Xiao Yanping's heart tightened, and the force of the sword swung down in his hand was obviously reduced by three points. At this moment, Sun Tu also changed his tactics. He suddenly abandoned his gun, leaned down, and touched his right hand on his waist. A cold light came out of its sheath, and with the momentum of his body, it drew a perfect arc. He struck the opponent's horse on the front leg with a sudden blow.
Blood splattered and screamed suddenly. The horse's legs were cut off with a knife, and its whole body rose up into the air unconsciously, and then fell down. Sun Tu also took this opportunity to turn around sharply, and slashed out with the knife in his hand again, directly to the opponent's back.
Just as Xiao Yanping was alerted in the end, the powerful attack with a spear just now was actually a feint, just to attract the opponent to attack with all his strength, and then he injured the horse first, and then killed the enemy, catching the opponent off guard.
How could Sun Tu, who had extremely rich combat experience, not know how disadvantaged he would be in a duel between infantry and cavalry, so he took this risky move. But he still failed in the end, because Xiao Yanping had already made the most timely response before. He also turned around and put away his sword to defend himself, so that his vicious sword was completely blocked.
After a loud bang, Sun Tu's entire body turned sideways, and Xiao Yanping, who had just gotten off the horse, also stumbled to the ground. He took more than ten steps back before he stabilized his body. At this time, his face became more and more solemn, and a chill ran down his back. If he hadn't been vigilant and changed his tactics just now, he might have capsized in the gutter.
But after Sun Tu stabilized his figure, there was a look of annoyance on his face. This was the best opportunity he had ever created to kill the enemy. In fact, this is the final turning point. Because if he had been able to kill the enemy general just now, the Liao soldiers would have been in chaos. Then their offensive would have slowed down, and only then would the subordinates on the mountain have the strength to fight. But now, the enemy general is An Ran, but he himself has once again fallen into the enemy's outflank.
And having turned around, he could see more clearly the dangerous situation of the Qingzhou soldiers who had followed him down - after being surrounded on three sides, after a burst of fighting, only less than fifty of the more than a hundred people were left, and All of them were injured, and they were about to be swallowed up by dozens of times more enemies. And Sun Tu himself was also surrounded by dozens of times more enemies.
At this moment, the Song army that came as bait was really at the end of its rope, but the expected reinforcements had not yet appeared until now.
By this time, Sun Tu already knew that reinforcements were unlikely to come. This must be another incident in Yanmen Pass, and someone is obstructing it. They are going along with the flow and want to use the Liao people's sword to get rid of themselves!
But at this moment, Sun Tu had no time to regret the decision he had made before. Even if he wanted to take revenge, he had to be alive to go back first, so he concentrated his mind again at this moment, held the sword across his chest, and showed A last-ditch gesture.
Xiao Yanping, on the other hand, narrowed his eyes, but no longer rushed forward, but suddenly shouted: "Surround him and kill him!" He didn't want to act like a hero anymore. There were dozens or hundreds of subordinates here, enough to surround him. Kill this terrible Song general.
On the hill behind, Cao Yan and other generals clenched their weapons, and their breathing became extremely rapid: "Brothers, soldiers! Who is General Sun fighting desperately for? Isn't it just to clear a bloody path for us? Can we really just watch them fight bloody battles below but remain indifferent? Now that there are no reinforcements, all we can count on is ourselves. Only if we fight with all our strength and make a desperate move can we find a way out for ourselves!
"Brothers, you are men, just follow me and kill, kill the Liao dogs, avenge your country! Kill!" With the last roar, Cao Yan could no longer care about anything else, he mounted his horse neatly, waving his The weapons rushed down the mountain quickly.
Behind him, Wei Cheng and other long-time friends also moved, and then a large number of Tiger and Ben Army soldiers. After a slight hesitation, they all roared and rushed down the hill brazenly!
Since the reinforcements have not arrived, it is up to you to be your own reinforcements!
