Chapter 639: Luring the Wolf into the House
"It's really so terrifying this time, isn't my brother very dangerous" Feng Wanjun stopped making a fuss and waited for Qiu Yun's answer in horror. "Words * love * first * hair -
Qiu Yun didn't know how, after all, he was a low-ranking general, and it was impossible for him to have access to high-level military intelligence. In order not to worry Feng Wanjun, he chose to ignore it and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the war is what it is, maybe the captives are still the same as in previous years, bluff and plunder and leave, there is no big trouble." ”
Even if he said it lightly, Feng Wanjun had tears in her eyes, ignoring Qiu Yun's gentle persuasion, and whispered: "Brother must take care, the slave family is waiting for you to come back." ”
Qiu Yun smiled bitterly and said softly, "I will definitely come back alive." ”
The two looked at each other silently, and no one spoke again, Qiu Yun was a fierce general, and he never knew how to be afraid of going to the battlefield. However, since he met Feng Wanjun, he seems to have changed a little, he has become a little hesitant about the battlefield, he has no eyes on the battlefield, as a low-ranking general, he is the first to bear the brunt in the battle, and he can't avoid it.
Feng Wanjun was worried about Qiu Yun, and secretly prayed to God to bless Qiu Yun to come back alive, after all, the sword on the battlefield is ruthless, and no one can talk about peace.
"Brother, you must come back alive, I'll wait for you" Feng Wanjun snuggled in Qiu Yun's arms, and said with a thin voice.
"Sister, as long as I survive, I will definitely marry you in style." Qiu Yun is categorical, but infinitely tender.
On November 8, the eighth year of the Great Middle War, war inevitably broke out.
The Jin army was divided into three routes, and launched a southern invasion offensive along the river, Wushu personally led 60,000 people to attack Jingdong, and 20,000 partial divisions entered Yunzhou, which was definitely the most fierce offensive in five years, only the most violent, not one.
In the face of the fierce offensive of more than 100,000 Jin troops, although the Xuanfu Division made all preparations, the Jin army invested a lot of troops at one time, especially the 60,000 people led by the Wushu Institute, most of which were the elite of the Jurchen tribe, and the elites of other ethnic groups.
The blow of their power in a single line is quite strong, almost unbearable.
The military states along the river were frequently in an emergency, and the troops either retreated south or guarded the pass, and the endless stream of Tang newspapers and the Guò post road continued to spread to Kaifeng.
Wang Shu angrily scolded the Speed Division and the Staff Division for making mistakes, the Jin Army went south six or seven days earlier, and the composition of the troops did not match the intelligence, which made him feel unprepared.
Scolding and scolding, Wang Shu, who had confronted the Jin people for many years, knew the way of the Jurchen generals and commanders, and immediately correctly judged that although the Jin army was going south by three routes, the real goal was indeed the east and west roads of Beijing and the west of the road, and to achieve a breakthrough in the eastern flank of Kaifeng.
On the one hand, he asked the imperial court for help, and on the other hand, he ordered all departments to hold the pass defense, and strive to delay the offensive of the Jin army, so that the second-line mobile troops had time to enter the offensive position. Of course, this is also the original plan, the first line of military states along the river does not have to resist strongly, as long as the key cities are held, and the second line of defense is used to deal with it.
After two days of fighting, the Jin army rushed to attack the estuary of the river in many ways, the Song army relied on the city to resist desperately, and the eyes of the generals of the Great Song Dynasty were attracted to Yunzhou, Gyeonggi and other places that were fiercely attacked by the Jin army.
It must be said that the Jin army was well prepared before the war and did a relatively good job of concealment, and the Great Song Dynasty did not judge the direction of the Jin army's main attack.
On the night of the 10th, Huihe Town and Shaoqiao Town were still in the hands of the Song army, but this was only a superficial phenomenon, at the ferry port of Huihe Town, the Song army wearing crimson military uniforms was lined up in a defensive formation, but it was not to guard against the Jin army, but to protect the ferry pontoon bridge to welcome the Jin army to cross the river.
On the pontoon bridge under the light of the fire, it was the Jin army troops who were crossing the river, one by one war horses, one by one carts crossing the river, and groups of marchers, quickly forming a marching army to advance, and there was no end to the mighty and mighty.
Wang Shizhong and Shili stood side by side at the ferry, and a tall Jurchen general walked opposite.
"Captain Wang, this is the Dajin Daimyo Mansion Road Commander Army Helusuo Meng'an." In the blazing firelight, the jurisdiction introduced with a smile: "Commander of the army, this is Wang Shizhong, the prince of Jingxi Road. ”
Heluso nodded, his attitude was quite arrogant, and there was even a strong look of disdain, he was a hereditary Meng'an, which was different from ordinary Meng'an.
Meng'an is a kind of military-civilian system of the Jurchens, but it has developed into official positions. Hereditary Meng'an has become a kind of lord, and only generals who have established great merits are eligible to live this honor.
Wang Shizhong saw that Helusuo was arrogant, and directly greeted the female ancestors of his family, but with a flattering smile on his face, he hugged his fists and said: "I have heard the prestige of Meng'an for a long time, and I can see it today, and I am fortunate to have three lives."
Helusuo didn't have a trace of a smile, didn't even nod his head, and said with a tiger face: "You southerners are so troublesome, don't be red tape at this time." The military situation is very urgent, and I immediately called the troops and horses of the headquarters to help, and I was ordered by Marshal Lang Jun that the army must all cross the river before dawn. ”
The jurisdiction saw that Helusuo was rude, but the two sides could not have a conflict at the joint, knowing the face but not the heart, who could have expected that Wang Shizhong would be treated coldly, how would he think in his heart, in case of a conflict, it would be rude for the Wushu to go south.
He rolled his eyes and smiled gently: "Helusuo Meng'an is an urgent son, Wang Taiwei still obeys the order, and when Lang Jun crosses the river, I will introduce him to Tai Wei, Lang Jun is thirsty for talent."
Wang Shizhong was originally angry, but when he was said by the jurisdiction, most of it was gone, after all, he was a person under the roof, and he could be introduced to the Jurchen noble chieftain, which was regarded as giving him a big face, and said with a smile: "This is not difficult, and please ask your department to cross the river and guard the surroundings in case they are taken advantage of by the rangers." ”
The jurisdiction deeply believes that after several years of development, the combat effectiveness of the Song army has not been strengthened by a single star. Especially the Ma Army, in addition to the 78 generals who reorganized the Gongsheng Army, the Northern Servant Army also formed a powerful horse army, all of which were Tubo war horses, which were also quite deterrent to the Jin army.
He groaned a little and said to Helu Suo: "What Wang Taiwei said is reasonable, what does Meng'an think?"
Seeing that Wang Shizhong was knowledgeable, Helusuo's attitude was a little gentler, a slight smile flashed on his bearded face, and he said slowly: "This is also common sense, I will lead five hundred horsemen to patrol, and I will leave it to you here." ”
Wang Shizhong had a toothache for a while, and the hundred horsemen patrolled, but he really didn't take the Great Song Forbidden Army seriously, but the Cloud Cavalry Army had 5,000 horse troops, and everyone still had horses
Boats come and go on the river, and the convoys passing on the pontoon bridge continue to transport the Jin army to the south bank, all of which are in order, and when it comes to the fifth watch, the east is faintly white, and a large number of troops still cross the river.
At this time, the Jin army on the shore had reached 10,000 people, and Wushu crossed the river under the support of the guards, he encouraged Wang Shizhong a few words, and immediately took Wang Shizhong as a guide, and led 4,000 horses by Heluso to advance into Shaqiao Town
