Zhao Kuangyin stood at the head of the city of Yizhou and looked out, outside the moat, there were five moats two zhang wide and one zhang deep, which he led the sappers to build.

Ye Hua once said that when repairing a trench, the soil should be piled on one side, not on both sides, which is a very strange request, but Zhao Kuangyin faithfully fulfilled it.

After the repair, Zhao Da discovered the mystery.

When the enemy rushed over, there was no floating soil on the side of the trench, and they had to fill it with sand and gravel on their backs, which undoubtedly increased the difficulty.

The nimble infantry wanted to climb up from the bottom of the ditch, if it was flat ground, it would be easy, but the problem was that the sand was piled on the inside and formed a wall of earth six or seven feet high, which was equivalent to doubling the depth of the trench!

It's just such a simple change that has amazing consequences.

During the siege of the city, the combined forces of the Khitan and Northern Han died 7,000 people just to fill the trenches!

They're filling the pit with corpses!

Zhao Kuangyin silently calculated, four of the five trenches have been filled, and there is still the last one left, the war will burn to the city, and the real battle will come!

"Pass my orders, pour fire oil into the trenches, and when they attack the city, set fire to these grandsons!"

"Yes!"

The sappers immediately went to prepare, Zhao Da showed a hideous smile, he wanted to bury the Khitan and the Northern Han under the city of Yizhou!

"Master Hou, I'm so lively here, don't be ashamed, you must fight a beautiful battle!"

……

Ye Hua commanded the army and quickly came to Gu'an, and there was constant news along the way, Zhang Yongde led the cavalry to repel the men and horses besieging Gu'an, and had converged with the defenders in the city, and made every effort to hold on!

The horse master took the lead for Da Zhou, and the whole army was full of excitement and enthusiasm...... Although battles, rigorous training, and sophisticated weapons in the era of cold weapons are important, the morale of the military has always been an issue that cannot be ignored.

It's like fighting, someone sees the other party's glare, and their legs go limp, and someone sees the bleeding, and their hearts panic...... In a life-and-death struggle, one thought may cost one's life.

The two armies clashed, losing dozens on one side and only a few on the other...... When the gap comes out, it's hard not to be afraid...... This is also the reason why veterans of a hundred battles are so important, they are the backbone, and they are the needle of the sea god. With veterans, you can stabilize the overall situation.

Hastily armed, untrained farming people, facing nomadic tribes who rob and kill all day long, are born to suffer...... There are no weak people in nomadic tribes, because the weak have long since died!

They fight all year round, and the bloody killing is already engraved in their bones, and when they get to the battlefield, they will only be more excited and crazy, and they will take the lead in taking the lead, and the consequence of not being able to bear it is a rout on all fronts.

However, this situation will never appear among the people of Da Zhou.

First of all, the soldiers and horses of the Great Zhou are all strictly selected and trained, with a hundred times stricter military discipline than the previous army, monotonous and boring training, has integrated many things into the bones, even if it is afraid and panicked, it will not make fatal mistakes, and it is impossible to escape from large-scale rout.

If a soldier dies in battle, his family will receive a subsidy, and if he escapes, his family's land will be recovered...... Although they are very reluctant, when the parents of each family send their sons to join the army, they repeatedly tell them to obey military orders and never run away for the sake of the livelihood of the whole family - this is also the mystery of Ye Hua's repeated emphasis on recruiting good families!

With the bonds of home, you can be willing to protect with your life! This is something that those green-skinned scoundrels and stabbing criminals will never be able to do.

And don't forget, who is the commander of the Great Zhou soldiers?

It's the champion Hou!

It was the champion Hou who killed the Khitan Emperor with his own hands!

The battle of Linzhou, the defeat of the strong by the weak and the killing of the Khitan Emperor Yelu Ruan, has been adapted into a drama, which is very popular on the stage, the scene is grand, and the momentum is magnificent, all of which surpass the Qin king's breaking formation.

Even the Khitan Emperor can be slaughtered, what are the Khitans afraid of!

Moreover, since Ye Hua went north, he has been fighting steadily and steadily, step by step, fighting on the Gaoliang River, severely inflicting heavy losses on the Khitan soldiers, and everyone in private said that Ye Hua was the nemesis of the Khitan Emperor, and some people opened a gambling game, speculating whether Ye Hua would kill another Khitan Emperor......

The accumulated victory is the courage of the soldiers and the morale of the soldiers!

Unconsciously, the people of Da Zhou already have a trace of the Tang Dynasty, although it is still a little illusory, but it is indeed true!

The strong man Sheng Tang is coming back again!

Zhang Yongde chose to take the initiative to attack, and in the face of the Khitan elite cavalry, some of the soldiers were only nervous and excited, wanting to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, and to prove themselves.

The aggressiveness of the soldiers infects the generals, and the generals infect His Majesty the Emperor!

"Ye Hua, I want to take the initiative to attack this time, an unforgettable lesson for the Khitans!"

"Your Majesty Shengming, Da Zhou will win!"

Ye Hua's answer was very systematic, but it didn't mean perfunctory, this was what he said in his heart, the army of the strong Han and the Tang Dynasty, in the face of the enemy, would it be passively beaten?

No, you have to attack, attack, beat the Khitans out of Yanyun and the Great Wall, and from now on, the grassland is the back garden of the Han family!

Ye Hua set a small goal.

An army of more than 100,000 quickly approached Gu'an.

At dusk, Guo Wei rushed to a small village thirty miles outside the city, where His Majesty the Emperor personally got out of the chariot and accompanied by Ye Hua to visit the soldiers, regardless of the wind and snow.

The place where Guo Wei got off, later known as Xia Yuan Village, became a famous scenic spot, no less than the imperial palace, historians say that this is the place where the Han family regained the courage and blood, and it was also the beginning of sweeping the world, as an old soldier, Guo Wei reached his peak!

His Majesty the Emperor pressed the Sword of the Son of Heaven, and the champion Hou Yehua followed closely.

Guo Wei walked in front of the soldiers, and everywhere he passed, the soldiers fell to one knee and shouted long live. The sound is so loud, one after another, it is like the Yellow River coming up from the sky!

Guo Wei walked on foot for nearly an hour, reviewed 50,000 soldiers, got back into the chariot, and went straight to the battlefield. The place where Guo Wei got on the chariot is also known as Shangcha Village.

The soldiers guarded their emperor, and the momentum was like a rainbow, and they ran over to the north.

At noon the next day, the Zhou soldiers who went north collided with the Khitan soldiers who went south.

A fierce battle ensued...... Da Zhou gave up the advantageous bed crossbow, and did not wait in formation, but killed it directly!

The sound of horses' hooves roared over like a tide, the roars and the sound of fighting filled the heavens and the earth, black and gray smoke and dust drifted in the air, and the air was filled with a boiling breath.

Yang Ye led the iron cavalry, and suddenly rushed with force, they didn't care about the Khitan bows and arrows, raised their spears, and rushed towards the enemy.

Rumble!

The two armies collided, and the spears pierced the armor, making a terrible sound of metal grinding, and the flat spear heads pierced into the bodies of the knights and horses, bringing out a large amount of blood.

The Khitan people's war horse roared and turned in pain, and threw the knight on his back to the ground, and the war horse couldn't bear it, and fell down together, the heavy war horse broke his legs and collapsed his chest, and the Khitan mouth and nose were bleeding, and under his own war horse, he wailed and screamed, which made people's hearts beat.

Even more frightening are the poignant trumpets and rumbling war drums.

Rush!

Kill!

Don't let go of a Khitan!

More cavalry rushed forward, and they used javelins to throw at the Khitans, which was the usual method of the Fu cavalry. On the other side, Gao Huaide clenched his spear and also entered the Khitan army.

The three generals rushed and beat fiercely, treating the Khitan soldiers as if they were nothing.

They were killing and laughing wildly, as if there was not a powerful enemy in front of them, but a pack of dirty chickens and dogs, vulnerable!

Shame!

Absolute shame!

The Khitans were enraged.

Yelu Jing's exaggerated chariot was lost, and was captured by Ye Hua, he could only ride a war horse, and by his side, there were as many as hundreds of generals, as well as the leaders of the Khitan tribes, they were wearing armor, wrapped in animal skins, and holding scimitars inlaid with gems in their hands, all of them were fierce and vicious.

Yelu Wuqi saw it in his eyes and sneered secretly.

The combat power of the Southern Dynasty exceeded his estimate, and it was even stronger than he imagined, especially the momentum that was not afraid of the sky and the earth, which made his heart tremble.

The same is true of the Khitan in the past!

Unified all the departments, destroyed the Bohai Kingdom, repeatedly went south, and the Central Plains of the Prancing Horse, how majestic the Khitan was at that time!

Let's wake up the Khitan up and down with this battle!

"You guys lead the troops up!"

Yelu Wuzhi pointed to a few leaders of the Xi tribe, and these people immediately urged the war horses, beckoned to their subordinates, and rushed forward with a roar.

"A bunch of savages!"

Fu Zhaoxin took a sip fiercely, since he killed Xiao Dagan, Fu Dagongzi found a trace of the consciousness of a famous general, he held the precious war knife in his hand, and decisively rushed towards the Xi cavalry.

"Attention, gun!"

The soldier quickly followed the order and raised his rifle up, and the palm of the hand holding the barrel was empty. Run fast and press the speed, and run slow to keep up quickly.

It gradually became a neat row, with spears like a forest and cavalry like a wall!

"Kill!"

The two sides collided, and in an instant, a piece of Xi cavalry fell, and their short weapons could not hurt the Great Zhou cavalry at all. However, this impact also made many riding guns unable to withstand the rebound force and break.

In fact, the riding guns have been specially treated, they are one-time consumables, and they are not distressed at all, and it is enough to exchange them for the lives of so many enemies.

The soldier who lost his rifle quickly drew his saber and met the next Khitan soldiers.

Fu Zhaoxin kept wielding the treasure knife, he took advantage of the sky, this treasure knife created at no expense is really powerful, the spear is cut off, the mace is cut off, the axe is cut off, even the scimitar of the head of the Xi department is not a problem!

Fu Zhaoxin slashed head-on and split the head of Xi in half, and the other barbarians fled in fright...... The dark red blood soaked the dry land, and the corpses were everywhere, and it was terrifying to see.

Ye Hua and Guo Wei rushed to the battlefield, and this was the scene they saw.

"Your Majesty, the Khitans sent iron cavalry to separate the two armies, and they formed a formation in the rear, ready to hold on!" Ye Hua's tone couldn't hide his joy.

Guo Wei's beard is raised high!

"Hahaha, the Khitans don't dare to attack! I'm going to tell them that if they don't attack, they won't defend! Guo Wei said sharply: "Command the new army, press me up!" ”
