The canyon in Wuyan Mountain was in the shape of a triangle, winding for ten miles.
The Liao soldiers who had climbed over the top of the mountain saw the chaotic military flag in front of them. The Song army had just crossed the mountain, and it seemed that the formation of the army was in chaos.
"It's a good opportunity to pursue." Ye Lui Dashi smiled smugly.
The troops at the front began to descend the mountain, while the troops at the back mostly ascended the mountain as well.
The Liao soldiers that followed Ye Lui Dashi were the elite 50,000-strong Tiger Division, and they were also the capital that Ye Lui Dashi used to fight for the throne of Liao Kingdom.
The old emperor Yelu Hongji was already sick. The situation in the Liao court was very delicate. Having soldiers in their hands was capital.
Ye Lui Dashi thought that if he destroyed this Song army, then the chances of him winning the throne would greatly increase.
Thinking of this, Ye Lui Dashi waved his flag and ordered the entire army to pass through the canyon quickly to make a contribution.
The morale of the Liao soldiers down the mountain was high. This was a pursuit battle. In front of them was the main force of the Song army.
Suddenly, the Liao soldier who was walking in front saw a flash of golden light.
Gold! Silver! Treasures were piled up like mountains. On the treetops, under the canyon, at the fork in the road, there were gold and silver treasures everywhere.
They immediately let go of the reins and desperately pounced on the gold. This was the most primitive reaction. They were very primitive to begin with.
The Liao soldiers behind also saw the large amount of gold, silver, and jewelry in front of them. They released their reins and rushed forward to snatch them.
Under the stimulation of the huge amount of gold, no matter how strict the military orders were, they were thrown out of the clouds in front of these Liao soldiers.
There was nothing more crazy than gold!
Ye Lui Dashi was worried after hearing the chaos in front of him. He instinctively knew that this was probably a conspiracy of the Song army.
However, chaos had already formed. Even his trusted generals did not listen to him. Instead, they rushed to the front of the crowded canyon and killed four Liao soldiers for a ring.
He had broken limbs and was holding a gold ingot in his hand. In an instant, his finger was cut off by the other Liao soldiers and the gold ingot was taken away.
In the depths of the canyon, on the treetops, self-slaughter was everywhere. For Ku Da Bing, as long as he caught a piece of gold, he would be able to go back without worrying about food and clothing.
Ye Lui Dashi was completely enraged. He personally carried his mace down the canyon to maintain order.
As the self-killing escalated, the conflict among the Liao soldiers grew, and the intensity of the killing became greater and greater. They did not notice the ambush and movement of the Song army on both sides of the canyon.
Qi Jiguang and Zhang Xian stood at the top of one of the Five Rock Mountains, watching the Liao soldiers crazily killing each other below the canyon.
Zhang Xian said in admiration," General Qi, your predictions are indeed divine. In the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, half of the Liao soldiers will be dead. I am truly impressed."”
Qi Jiguang smiled indifferently and said," How is this my plan? This is what His Majesty's imperial edict said. Liao soldiers love money. Helan Mountain is full of twists and turns. We can lure them with gold and silver and set up an ambush to kill them. This is His Majesty's wisdom.”
"Tian Zi is wise!" Zhang Xian was enlightened.
"Zhang Xian, now is the time for you and me to make contributions. The Liao army has already reached the top of the mountain. We can catch a turtle in a jar and settle the situation in one battle.”Qi Jiguang said.
"This general will obey! Brothers, kill!" With Zhang Xian's order, the Yue Family Army's dozens of flag soldiers simultaneously raised the red flag of attack.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"Kill them!"
On both sides of the canyon, ambushes were set up everywhere. Each of them was as brave as a tiger. The rain of arrows released by the crossbows and divine arm bows covered the sky and the sun, and the arrows did not miss.
The first shot had cut off the Liao army's escape route. The end of the canyon was already blocked by huge rocks, and the powerful intimidation of the crossbow covered the area.
On the mountain behind them were musketeers and condor archers. On both sides of the valley were Song soldiers, shooting arrows nonstop.
After the three arrows, the Song soldiers lying in ambush on both sides of the canyon began to charge with their sabers and spears.
The Song Army had been holding back their anger as they retreated, but now that their commander had given the order to attack, the Qi Family Army and the Yue Family Army's anger was ignited, and they rushed over while howling.
The battle lasted for an entire day. When the sky was getting dark, the battle ended. The 50,000 Liao troops were completely wiped out, and their commander, Yelu Dashi, was injured and captured.
Most of the Liao soldiers were still clutching the gold and silver in their hands, their eyes wide open.
Qi Jiguang ordered," Take back all the gold and silver treasures, cut down the trees on both sides of the canyon, push all the Liao soldiers to the bottom of the canyon and burn them overnight. Other than the general, Ye Lui Dashi, kill all the other captives!”
"General Qi, take these captives back. I'll escort them." Zhang Xian said.
"General Zhang Xian, what can these captives do after they return? Wouldn't it become a disaster for the Imperial Court? Today, I will set a rule for those Liao people. If they encounter the Great Song's Iron Army, there must be only one path, and that is death.”
"This general will obey!" Zhang Xian didn't say anything else. He immediately organized his soldiers to collect the gold and silver, cut down the trees, and kill all the Liao soldiers.
The fire burned for three days and three nights. The Liao soldiers who came later saw that the bottom of the canyon had been filled up to the mountainside. The charred bones made them tremble with fear. They no longer had the courage to chase after them. They turned around and fled back to Shangjing.
