998.Chapter 998 The soldiers arrived in Xiping Mansion

The Xia army and the horse army were too fast, and most of the native soldiers of the township army had just entered the battlefield, and they were very inexperienced, so it was difficult to grasp the fighters, so they could only stick to their positions and be beaten passively.

Qu Duancai is a bypass, he has the ability to command an army of 100,000, but he is not an immortal, this clumsy inland military state and township army, can not effectively control the war, and holding on is the best choice.

Kan Xian's troops approached the unfinished camp several times, almost close to the position of Quduan, and the Song army fell into the most stubborn resistance, that was the commander of the Western Servant Army! There must not be any slip-ups, and the generals and colonels of all ministries were also given the most severe military orders, and they were to be put on their positions and not to take half a step back.

He didn't know that Qu Duan was on the battlefield and was still in front of him, but he could judge that it must be the general of the Song army, this was a great opportunity for meritorious service, and he did not hesitate to throw in three hundred iron harriers and forcibly assault with the cooperation of the Ma army.

The infantry army was outside with big cards, spearmen, archers, they and the Xia army horse army shot at each other, and when the Xia army heavy cavalry charged, these township army native soldiers, with their heads and blood and cavalry confrontation, rushed forward and back.

They had no way to retreat, Qu Duan was behind them, one after another under the swords, but there was no way to retreat, the equipment in the hands of the township army was not as good as the forbidden army, and in the face of the iron harrier in heavy armor, the casualties were heavy.

Qu Duan did not lose his coolness, as an outstanding general, he kept a cool head, made full use of the unfinished camp, organized the officials to form a small formation of resistance, and shot the iron harrier with bows and arrows, and there were some successes.

The battle lasted for a whole afternoon, until the sun set, Kan Xian's army rushed to the Quduan position several times for a hundred paces, but under the cooperation of the Song army's stumbling horses, traps and infantry troops, they suffered heavy casualties and had to retreat.

If Kan Xian knew that the front was Quduan, he would definitely do whatever it takes, even if the whole army is annihilated, he will rush up and kill Quduan, but unfortunately he doesn't know that the Song army has always been heavy in combat, and army-level generals rarely go deep into the front line, let alone the marshal.

Gulihei is also afraid that he will be surrounded by the Song army in the dark, there are more and more Song troops on the battlefield, and the Song army's military formation also appears in his rear, and it may not be good to fight again. He was also a decisive person in killing, and decided that he could not expand the results of the battle, so he immediately ordered all his troops to withdraw from the battlefield one after another, and evacuate to the depths of the Hanhai Sea under alternate cover.

The continuous impact of the Ma army was unfavorable, and the most fearful thing was to be entangled by the infantry army, losing the ability of the Ma army to maneuver, and as a result, it could only be strangled in an organized manner.

Quduan did not pursue, but ordered all the troops to rest and recuperate, set up the village overnight, build fortifications, and the departments opened on time the next day. If he commanded the forbidden army of the old Western army, it would definitely be a two-wing horse army attacking, chasing and killing the world.

In the battle, the Song army killed 2,000 people, wounded more than 1,000 people, killed more than 400 cavalry of the Xia army, captured more than 100 people, and can even be said to be a defeat, but it cannot be said to be a complete defeat. In this battle, some township army units were trained in actual combat and had experience in fighting against the Ma army, and this kind of Cheng Dรน casualties were still acceptable.

The casualties of the war are not large in the formal battle, and most of them are strangled by both sides or the rout of one side, which will cause large-scale casualties. In this battle between the Ma army and the infantry army, the Song army held its position and did not break the army formation, and the two sides fought mostly from a distance, so the casualties were not too large.

In the next few days, Gulihei contacted the Song army several times, and the more he fought, the more he understood, the people were stable transfer channels, a company camp for thirty miles, and each other could be reinforced, even if it was an infantry army, it was difficult for the Ma army to attack the operation channel.

The two camps are thirty miles apart, and the nearest one is only twenty miles, once the baggage transport team is attacked, you can immediately turn to the defense, and get reinforcements from the two camps, which is simply an elongated turtle shell, so that you have nowhere to eat.

In the face of the tactics of the Song army step by step, there was really no way to do it, and after an attempted attack, he was attacked by the Song army on three sides and lost more than 600 people, he obeyed Kan Xian's construction and led the main force to withdraw from Hanhai.

However, they did not go back to Xiping Mansion directly, but ran directly to Jingzhou from the east road, as the Ma army troops, they were already exhausted, although returning to Xiping Mansion could increase the pressure on the Song army, but it was directly into the battle, and the strategic significance was not great.

Back to the south of Jingzhou, you can rest for a while, wait for the next military order, and then launch an attack on the Song army from the periphery.

Just when Guli Hei retreated northward, Wu Jie's command of the troops went directly to the periphery of Xiping Mansion, and Li Shifu's 52nd Brigade Town was simply out of the limelight, they defeated three interception troops along the way, and captured Jinming Village on the periphery of Xiping Mansion, killing two thousand Xia troops.

This unit completed a surprise attack of nearly two hundred miles, four large-scale operations in a row, and arrived at the destination very smoothly and completed its mission. Although the damage to the chariot was very severe, it made the generals of the forbidden army more understanding of the use of chariots.

In any case, Li Shifu opened the road, and the Song army arrived at the periphery of Xiping Mansion one after another, set up camps one after another, and began to assemble those siege equipment.

The Xia army has a lot of soldiers and horses in Xiping Mansion, all of which are controlled by Li Liangfu, because of the black bone power and did not enter Xiping Mansion, he has about 20,000 soldiers and horses from all walks of life, and if he wants to fight a field battle with the Song army, it is simply looking for death, and a Li Shifu can abuse him.

Wu Jie did not attack immediately, but set up a position, the two armies went down to the east and west of Xiping Mansion as cover, the Yunyi Army directly arrived in the south of the city, and the township army gathered more than 30,000 people to take on the main help of the siege.

At this moment, a horse army of 4,000 men was quietly gathering, and the rest of various armor battles and the preparation of arrows and food were quietly underway. On the side of Yaode City, there is also a horse army of more than 2,000 people quietly stationed in the city for the final rest.

With the arrival of the Song army in Xiping Mansion and the establishment of a stable company and camp transfer channel, it was completely unexpected by Li Renxiao and Ren Dejing, which is not good news! Even Brother Cha, who was drunk with wine, also entered the palace early in the morning to discuss the military.

Whether they admit it or not, they can't deny that the Song army's central offensive was successful, and the attack on which they pinned great hopes was helplessly failed in the face of the iron-clad joint camp, and only then did the backbone of the black retreat to the north.

Ren Dejing was also panicked, there was no proposition, the strong Dianqian Division northwest camp, actually resisted the onslaught of the Xia army, so that the main force of the Song army had time to sweep, the Xia army in the east was defeated again and again, the people's hearts were unstable, the surrender of local officials was commonplace, and the situation became more and more corrupt.

It's good now, it was originally to lure the enemy deep into annihilation in one fell swoop, and it was played by others with one wrist, but it has become an embarrassing situation in which the front is fighting fiercely and the hinterland is under siege. Xiping Mansion was the garrison of the Xiangqing army and an important stronghold of Xia, once occupied by the Song army, the war would become extremely gloomy.
