Chapter 1078

Moreover, because of the strong crossbows on these Song warships, the Liao army, which was supposed to besiege Sanchakou Fort on three sides, had to leave the section of the city wall near the river bank far away.

Tens of thousands of elite Liao troops could only concentrate their forces in the direction of the north side of the city wall at the three forks, and as for the east and west city walls, they were all within the protection range of the crossbows on those warships.

This thing can't be protected by iron armor, the arrow body that is nearly an inch thick, and the arrow that is about to catch up with the size of the tip of a spear, can often shoot a crossbow, and it can pierce several people one after another like a skewer.

It's like Jerodadon trying to hold fate by the throat, only to be caught by a special counter-capture. A feeling of suffocation that made it difficult for him to breathe made him speechless for a long time.

This made Jerodadon climb this observation tower every day, and saw the stone bullets that flew out of the three-way fortress from time to time, and farther away, the pictures of the Song Dynasty's sailors and warships showing off their might on the Wuding River, and he always had the urge to whip his own ear.

Knowing this, he shouldn't be overconfident because he had captured Sanchakou Fort, but should attack Wanjingkou Fort.

At least there was no sailor at Wanjingkou Fort to cover the flanks. But the problem is that they have all been killed and reborn at these three forks, and in the end, the lord will say that we are in the wrong place, and we will continue in another place.

If you do this, you will inevitably lose morale, and likewise, your prestige will be greatly damaged, so now, Yerodadon is really difficult to ride.

"Dashuai, the spies we sent to Youzhou have returned." Just as Jerodadon stood on the observation tower with a lot of thoughts, one of the generals hurriedly climbed the tower and whispered in his ear.

Jerodadon couldn't care about any more sorrow, but hurried down the tower, and after a short time, the spies came to Jerodadon and fell to the ground. "Dashuai, the wild bowl wins the generals, they have been martyred......"

Jerodadon's face couldn't help but darken. "Who else?"

"Dashuai, they were all killed by Wang Yang's Song dog, and more than 120 brave soldiers were all killed." The spy replied with a look of grief and indignation.

"All dead? …… Wang Yang, you dog! Just don't take my Da Liao in your eyes. Ok, good, good! Yelu Datun was so angry that the three corpses jumped violently, and turned his head to look in the direction of the three forks, but the three forks were still standing, and there was no sign of being captured by the Liao army at all.

"It was he who forced Ben Shuai, General Xiao ......" Yelu Dutton took a deep breath, turned his head, swept his gaze, and finally fell on Xiao Zhongwen's body.

"The end will be." Xiao Zhongwen hurriedly replied.

"Sanchakou Fort, the terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but now, the main force of the Song army must be attracted by Ben Shuai, and at this time, Wan Jingkou Fort in the north must be guarded against emptiness, so this Shuai will give you 30,000 horses, be sure to take Wan Jingkou, otherwise, come and see."

Facing the resentful boss, Xiao Zhongwen had a lot of reluctance in his heart, and at this time, he could only harden his head and obey the order.

"Generals, you must have also known the news that General Ye Bo Sheng and more than 100 soldiers under his command unfortunately sacrificed their lives for the country. Those dog thieves of the Song Kingdom vainly provoked and broke my Anding Fort, plundered our soldiers, and accused them of horse bandits......"

"How can I endure such a shame?! Order the whole army to capture the three forks and not seal the knife for three days! Jerodadon drew his sword from his waist, raised it high, and shouted.

"Capture the three forks, and don't seal the knife for three days!" The soldiers of the Liao army present all unsheathed their swords and guns, pointed straight at the sky, and roared wildly.

#####

"General, today's offensive of the Liao army is much more fierce than the previous two days." The guard of the three-way fort wiped the blood on his face, panted, and came to report to Zhe Keshi.

"Lao Tzu is not blind, he can see it, it seems that these Ziliao dogs have already played a real fire, but so what?" Zhi Keshi stood in place, standing still, his eyes fell on the Liao soldiers who were rushing towards Sanchakou Fort in the distance.

"Tell the brothers, don't be afraid, hold on, just with this gang of Liao dogs, you can't take our Sanchakou Fort, all you have to do is to hold on and create time and opportunities for the general."

"Seed general, is it not the seed master general?" Another general beside Zhi Keshi asked curiously.

"That's right, it's that old boy from the Planter's Dao, he's a good fate, alas...... I knew that today, I should have gone to the defense of the three states of silver, stone, and dragon......" Zhi Keshi snorted angrily, and looked towards the east.

I don't know what the farmer is doing now, I think it's either on the ferry, or it's already on the north bank of the Wuding River.

He really didn't guess wrong, at this moment, the planter was standing on a transport ship with his armor on the top, his eyes crossed the turbulent uncertain river, and on the bank of the river in front of him, nearly 10,000 horses had already crossed, and at this moment they were lining up on the bank of the river.

And at the rear of the Seed Master Road, there were more than 20 ferries, and on each ferry, there were 150 heavily armed Great Song elites.

Every two hours, 5,000 soldiers can cross the Wuding River. In other words, it only takes one day to be able to send all the 50,000 elites under his command to the north bank of the Wuding River.

Early yesterday morning, I received a warrant from Wang Jingluo, and I was really startled at that time, didn't I say that the two countries between Liao and Song are now in a period of peace?

He actually wanted to lead a large army to cross the river and attack Xiazhou, and after asking the messenger, he realized that it was the Liao army that made the first move and was already attacking Sanchakou Fort.

Even though the seed master Daodang gave the order, he began to concentrate the army and collect ferries, and from this morning, the 20,000 horses who had arrived at the Shizhou ferry had already begun to cross the river.

With the cover of the sailor, it is naturally not difficult to cross the Wuding River. And Na Yelu Dutton had already led the main force of the Liao army in Hedong Province in the direction of the three forks of the fort.

And the city defense of Xiazhou naturally became empty, with less than 10,000 defenders, such a practice, in the eyes of the master of the plant, it was as if a hard bone that was originally difficult to gnaw was actually smashed, revealing the delicious and attractive bone marrow inside.

After the seed master Dao landed on the shore, he carefully asked the generals who had led the army to cross first, and made sure that a large number of scout cavalry had been scattered, and he had not encountered the scout cavalry of the Liao State, so he was a little relieved.

Seed Master Dao's gaze swept over the generals gathered and inquired about the situation. At present, a total of 15,000 soldiers have passed through the river, including 3,000 cavalry, and the rest are foot soldiers.

"Well, the Liao people haven't noticed our arrival yet, which is a good thing. General Ning, have you already done what you were told to do? ”

"General, it's already done, but Xiazhou is more than an hour away from us coming ashore, I'm afraid we will have to wait a while before we can come back." General Ning hurriedly replied.

"Alright then, let the soldiers who crossed the river check their equipment, rest on the spot, and don't make a fire to make food. lest people find out ......"

"General, we are all here, why don't we run into the Liao army, the main force of the Liao army has already gone to the three forks, if we can attract the attention of the Liao army here, we will inevitably attract the main force of the Liao army to come back to help, so that the danger of the three forks will not be solved?" Hearing the instructions of the planter, the general next to him who had just crossed over was a little incomprehensible.
