Chapter 669: The End of the War in Xu Huai 2

Gao Sheng was forced by the power of the ship's crossbow arrows, and in order to reduce the casualties of the Ma army, he did not approach the port when retreating, and allowed the Tiger Wing Army to withdraw one after another. 『』

The Tiger Wing Army was not defeated, but suffered heavy losses, killing more than 700 people in battle, and more than 200 people died at sea one after another.

The experience is also very valuable, Li Chang did not have any lamentations, and immediately got into the cabin to write and draw, and wrote down the gains and losses.

At the beginning, their two-way coaxial offensive was successful and could be classified as a landing tactical application, but in the absence of follow-up troop reinforcements, relative to offensive operations, the scale of the landing of 5,000 people was too small to oppose the Ma Army of the Jin Army, and the scale seemed to be a bit too large relative to the special operation.

"What does Lord Wang think" Zhu Shengfei saw that Wang Xiu was silent, and couldn't help but ask more.

Wang Xiu got rid of his thoughts at this time, he glanced at Zhu Shengfei, and said: "As long as you retreat from the enemy, it will be a victory, and now you should pay attention to the battle in Xuzhou." Now, the western army has begun to enter western Beijing, and 30,000 soldiers and horses can be quickly transferred to the east, so as to fight the tired army with a living army. ”

Li Gang agrees with Wang Xiu's attention, it is definitely a tactic that intercepts layer by layer, and can definitely drag the vultures to death, even if he does not obtain the absolute control of Xuzhou, as long as the soldiers and horses of Jingxi arrive, he can also give the vultures a heavy blow, and he has never supported Wang Xiu's point of view as he did today, and said excitedly: "Okay, just do it." ”

Tan Shiji frowned slightly, Wang Xiu's strategy was too blunt, and it was completely a reckless attrition strategy. Now, the armies of all walks of life in western Beijing are counterattacking Hedong, even if the western army arrives, it is impossible to draw too many troops, Li Gang is also a stubborn donkey, he has to crush the face of the captives, don't you understand that the Xing Dynasty is not capable of that.

"Then harass Hedong on a small scale and concentrate troops to the east to intercept the vultures." Wang Xiu made the final decision, he wanted to fight a war of annihilation.

It must be said that just when Wang Xiu decided, the situation on the battlefield changed a lot. Under the powerful offensive of the Song army, the tart was beaten violently, losing two states in a row, and his face was gone.

He immediately switched to a thoroughly defensive posture, the Jin army on the western front was too weak, and the western army was constantly going to the front, and they did not even have enough strength to counterattack, so they could only call for reinforcements.

The Jin army on the eastern front maintained a strong force, but because the battlefield was divided into three clusters, the largest was of course the main force of Wushu, which already had an army of 100,000 people, and 20,000 people in the partial division were firmly watched by the soldiers and horses of Gyeonggi, and had to be supported on the front line in Yunzhou, and the follow-up Jin army had a strength of 40,000 or 50,000 people, but to defend the lines of communication, and to fight against the Song army that was constantly gathering in Xuzhou, the strength was constantly compressed, and it was difficult to form support for Wushu.

The rebel army in Hebei was earth-shattering, not only conquering the city and destroying a large number of Jurchen ruling institutions, but also pinning down a large number of Jin troops and making it impossible for them to cross the river to support.

What's even worse is that as the main force of the Jin army continues to deepen, the intensity of the attack continues to weaken, and in the face of the strict defense of the palace front division, the Wushu is already powerless.

The army that had just passed Huai had to face the embarrassment of returning, and what surprised him the most was that the Song army suddenly appeared in Huaishui, and the scale was quite large, and the military situation showed that it was Shao Qing, the general of the guard army, who led the team.

The Song army's river boats and navy responded quite quickly, Shao Qing was anxious to make meritorious contributions, and urgently mobilized the warships of various ports to go north, and the vanguard had already entered Huai, which shocked the Jin army greatly.

Faced with the heavy troops in front and the death of the beacons in the back, he could no longer care about attacking Zhongli County, and immediately ordered the main force to retreat north.

Ali and Han Chang were ordered to lead their troops out of the battlefield and quickly go north to open the way back to the north. But Yue Fei was not a vegetarian, and immediately led 3,000 cavalry to pursue, and 7,000 infantry troops followed, directly entering Bozhou, and did not go to support Gaoping.

For the sake of his own face, Wushu had to declare to the outside world that the search for mountains and seas had been completed, and the Jin army from all walks of life began to retreat north.

Where did Shao Qing let go of the great opportunity to make meritorious contributions, it is true that Huaishui is shallow, but he used the swordfish boat to organize officials to intercept it, and cut off the Jin army in Huaishui for four whole days, and more than 50,000 elites in front of the palace bit it.

Gao Ping also broke the cauldron and sunk the boat, organized and participated in the decisive battle of the soldiers and horses out of the city, and even once attacked the Helusuo camp, almost captured Helusuo, and the Jin army was still in danger in the shape of soldiers and horses in Huainan.

Give up the tens of thousands of miscellaneous troops that have passed through Huai, this is an established strategy, but it is very difficult to implement, until the last moment you dare to give up, the morale is absolutely severe, who will dare to give you your life in the future

Fortunately, Wu Lie led the army to defeat a fleet of Song troops, opened a shoal road, and led the army to cross the river with a large army, so that most of the soldiers and horses crossing the Huai were in danger. Those Han troops finally crossed the Huaishui, but seven or eight thousand people were annihilated, which can be described as heavy losses, especially the battle for the Huaishui, the water flow was red.

Wushu did not have a bad reputation, at least those Han generals did not think that the Jurchens had abandoned them.

When the battle comes to this, anyone with a discerning eye knows that it is over

It seems that as Wang Xiu said, the beginning of the end is often the most brutal, and the Battle of Xuzhou officially began with the northern retreat of Wushu.

Feng Yuan took the lead in launching an attack, breaking through the Jin military camp in the western part of Liguojian in one fell swoop, shaking the flank defense system of the living girl, and almost letting Han Shizhong and Wang De take advantage of the loophole.

If Ali and Han Chang hadn't led the army to arrive, I am afraid that there would be a big mistake in the defense line of the Jin army, this is already the ninth day that Wushu announced its retreat to the north, and Yue Fei also joined the Xuzhou battlefield.

Living Girl, Ali, Han Chang and others faced the Song army from three sides, and the battle was extremely ferocious.

There are almost no elites in the troops of the living girl, many of them are issued by the Han army, a small number of Khitan and Bohai army, and the combat effectiveness cannot be compared with the Song army.

However, the Song army had Feng Yuan to stick to the country of Li, and tens of thousands of elite soldiers on the periphery, which was definitely a central flowering tactic, and the Jin army could only barely hold on. In the end, after the Wushu passed the Fuli, they had to launch a decisive battle, and if they did not disperse the Song army, they would put the Wushu in danger.

It's a pity that Feng Yuan once again took the lead in attacking, and he led his army to attack Pengcheng directly, which was completely unexpected by the Jin army. In less than a day, Pengcheng was taken by the Song army, the Jin army lost its most powerful stronghold in Xuzhou, and Han Chang led the army to fail in two counteroffensives, and had to retreat to the border of Xu and Yi to accumulate strength.

The Jin army in the Xuzhou area was no longer able to launch a large-scale offensive, and could only come with the main force of the contemporary Wushu.

In a few days, Wushu led the army to Xuzhou, the ratio of troops changed, because the speed of the army in front of the palace was too slow, the Jin army formed a military advantage in Xuzhou, Han Shizhong, Wang De and others led the army to guard Xuzhou's abundant and Liguo line, and the war arrived
