Chapter 1: The First Movement of the Great Army
Yanmen Pass has been very unsafe recently, the cavalry of the Liao people are patrolling in groups on the plain outside the pass, this time they are very smart, they are dispatched to the cavalry of the brigade, as long as they are dispatched, thousands of horsemen are shouting outside the Yanmen Pass, as long as the young army goes out to fight, they will quickly escape from the Yanmen Pass, and after running far enough, they will once again guard the horizon and refuse to leave lightly.
"This is the old way of the Liao people, they always want to provoke our anger, let us leave the fortified city, and then use the speed advantage of the war horse to drag us down after losing the geographical advantage, and finally achieve the goal of annihilating us, hehe, fools will be fooled!"
Li Chang stood on the top of the hill and looked at the Liao cavalry who ran away again, and said to Yun Zheng disdainfully.
Yun Zheng twitched his nose, which was red from the cold wind, and looked at Li Changdao strangely: "Strange, when did you know that the march was going to war?" I also said one set of things, do you know, I have sent a large army out of the nest, and the idiot in your mouth is me! ”
Li Chang was taken aback, looked at his coach in surprise and said, "You can't do this!" ”
Yun Zheng said angrily: "Why can't Lao Tzu do this? ”
"It's a trick to lure the enemy!"
"You all know that this is a trick to lure the enemy, so who are those fools in Liao who plan to tempt with this trick? Gao Jixuan has been guarding Yanmen Pass for fifteen years, and the army of the Great Song Dynasty has not been out of the pass for fifteen years. ”
Li Chang approached Yun Zheng and whispered, "Where did the plan come from?" ”
Yun Zheng said angrily: "Lao Tzu's army can kill Zhang Zhi on the rocky slope, will he still be afraid that the field battle will not succeed?" I don't care what the Liao people have in mind, since they don't come to attack us. We're going to attack them, in short, Ulju, Yeongju. Shuozhou, Wuzhou, the four states of the four states I want to decide, especially Wuzhou and Shuozhou, these two states are the land of our Daizhou and Fuzhou volcano army. The Baode army was separated, and the Lan army was not capable enough to act as a bridge between our two states, and if something happened on the bank of the Yellow River, we would not have a tear. We don't care if the Volcano Army, the Baode Army, and the Lan Army die, but Biguan is our own brother, so it's better to be connected. In this way, we can have a complete defense system of Yanmen Pass. ”
Li Chang had a bit of a talent to rely on horses, while listening to Yun Zheng's words, he hurriedly wrote on the back of his own soldiers, and after a while, he wrote a letter and gave it to Yun Zheng and said: "Do you take a look, how about reporting to Your Majesty like this?" We always have a reason to go out of the customs. I said that the army of the Liao people constantly harassed Yanmen Pass, and rushed to the city several times, and we have repelled it. ”
Yun Zheng listened to Li Chang's explanation while reading the documents, he was fascinated, he couldn't help but nod his head, and finally pointed to the head of the chapter and said: "These few sentences are the most agreeable, the soldiers and horses of the 15th Route of Chenjing West sent the supervising army to Li Chang to the Great Wall and said: The army generously went out to kill the thieves...... The four words "Standing on the Great Wall" are used brilliantly, which fully demonstrates our determination to attack Shuozhou. ”
Li Chang said in a daze: "I mean this Great Wall of earth under our feet. It was built by Su Shi. It's not that the Great Wall of Qin in Shuozhou, that city is still in the hands of Xiao Huo'er, the Changhua Army of the Liao State......"
Yun Zheng tightened the cloak on his body, and said with a smile: "When the music is folded to Tokyo, Shuozhou should be taken back." Rest assured, you stay at Yanmen Pass. Assist Li Dongchu to defend the city pass, Lao Li, document disposal, people's heart measurement is your specialty, but marching and arranging is Li Dongchu's specialty, all the civil and logistics in the pass are at your disposal, but tens of millions, don't meddle in the military. ”
Li Chang bowed down and said: "Don't worry, I know what I should do, your army is fighting outside, I always have to help you guard the nest, if Yanmen Pass is finished, you and I will inevitably have to go through the ghost gate."
Take care when you're out on the road! ”
Yun Zheng laughed and went down the mountain, in Yanmen Pass, countless soldiers have been standing quietly for a long time, with a long hoarse horn sound, the main city of Yanmen Pass, which has been sealed for many years, slowly opened, the young army took the lead in riding horses and galloping to the mountain road, and the six Hai Dongqing also rose from the mountain road at the same time, and after a chirp, they were divided into three directions to spread their wings and fly.
After the army came out of Yanmen Pass, it immediately turned to the Stone Valley, as long as it crossed the Stone Valley, and then sneaked over the Great Wall at the mouth of the Chenjia Valley, it would be able to enter Shenwu City, where Wuzhou Prefecture was located, according to the battle plan formulated by Yun Zheng, his own army as the main force to attack Shenwu City, and the Lan Army as a reserve army must quickly occupy Wuzhai and Ningyuan Village, Yun Zheng did not believe that the Lan army of more than 20,000 people could not take the Wuzhai and Ningyuan Zhai guarded by only 6,000 Liao people, not to mention the premise that his army had taken Shenwu, It should not be difficult for the Lan army to establish such a martial honor.
What's more, they also have the Xinghua Army led by Lang Tan as backup, and there is absolutely no possibility of missing.
There was an extremely strange scene on the wasteland outside Yanmen Pass, a cavalry under the banner of the Song army, was sweeping the Liao cavalry on the wasteland, the most bizarre thing is that no matter where the Liao army was hiding, this Song army was almost straight to kill, and then with their own absolute number of people, and absolutely sophisticated weapons, with their best long-range attack, these caught off guard Liao cavalry were eaten one by one, as long as a cavalry was eliminated, they would immediately move to other battlefields, I didn't care about the armor and property on those Liao soldiers.
Six days passed, Xiao Huo'er, who was sitting in Xijing Datong Mansion, finally couldn't bear it anymore, and in six days, the cavalry sent by five tribes to harass Yanmen Pass was annihilated by the Song army. This is definitely not a scout in the ordinary sense of the word, it should be a well-planned battle plan.
The emperor was attacked in the Yazi River, and the north and south of the Liao country were preparing to retaliate, this was the news brought by the messenger, Xiao Huo'er didn't care too much about the news, he knew that his opposite was Yun Zheng, if he sent troops lightly, it was likely to be a protracted siege war, and the Yanmen Pass was dangerous in the world, and it was definitely not his ability to break through the Changhua Festival, so he chose to ignore it and not move.
When the Xiao family brought the bad news that the queen Xiao Guanyin lost an arm, Xiao Huo'er had no choice, and Yu had to send troops and horses to make an offensive appearance to contain the Song army at Yanmen Pass, so that the Liao army in Hebei could attack Niguzhai without any worries.
Now, 5,000 soldiers and horses are lost, and the remnants of the soldiers who fled back said that they attacked them was an extremely strong Song army, and they often suddenly appeared unconsciously, and after the appearance, there would be an overwhelming crossbow arrow flying over, and then there would be a terrifying iron ball being thrown over, this iron ball would make an extremely terrifying loud noise, once the iron ball sounded, the war horses would be frightened, and the army would be scattered, and then those people would howl and pounce to kill......
"Jiedu envoy, that's the gunpowder bomb of the Song Kingdom! I heard that it was made by Yun Zheng, which is completely different from the gunpowder weapons of the Song Kingdom in the past, and it is said that a gunpowder bullet can split mountains and stones when it explodes!
The last general was fortunate to buy one when he was in Hebei, and after testing, it was found that it was indeed worthy of its name! ”
Xiao Huo'er saw that Guo Hengchuan, the capital of the Han army under his Beijing army, said something, so he asked: "Since Lin Ya knows the power of this weapon, he doesn't know how to prevent it?" ”
Guo Hengchuan arched his hand and said: "Qi Yu Jie Du envoy, I haven't heard of anyone who has a better way to deal with this thing, some of the previous gunpowder weapons of the Song army, such as a swarm of bees, ten thousand tigers running together, or flying fire crows, have a disadvantage is that they are afraid of water, but this time, the new gunpowder bullets made by the Song army will still explode even if they are thrown into the water."
The only thing that can be told is to stay away from gunpowder bullets, the farther away the better, because no matter how brave the warrior is, under the bombardment of gunpowder bullets, he will also be torn apart. ”
Xiao Huo'er sighed and said: "You don't know, more than 10,000 Song troops attacked the Duck River, and His Majesty planned to hold a spring bowl in the Duck River, listening to my brothers in the clan, more than 10,000 Song troops almost crippled the 50,000 ghost slave army, and these Song troops are not the most elite in the Song army, many people say that if it is Yun Zheng or Di Qing, they are likely to succeed." ”
Since he is surrounded by people in the family, there is nothing to avoid, Xijing Datong Mansion is the most unconcerned Kyoto in the Liao State, and even the servant generals like Guo Hengchuan are on his side, so what Xiao Huo'er said is very depressed and true.
Xiao Huo'er's cousin Xiao Daoyan said: "The loss of 5,000 men and horses, we can afford to lose, the total number of military horses in Xijing Datong Mansion is more than 376,500, and the battle loss of 5,000 is not a big deal, if Yun Zheng's purpose is not to kill people but to seize land, it will be dangerous, you must know that the reason why the Song people will assassinate His Majesty this time is for the sixteen states of Yanyun promised by Yelu Chongyuan, and I Xijing occupies as many as five states, and the Song people will do anything for the sixteen states of Yanyun, so we must be cautious!" ”
Guo Hengchuan once again arched his hand and said: "For today's plan, there is only one way, that is, the whole army presses into Yanmen Pass and forces Yun Zheng not to act rashly, we have an army of 300,000, and the Song army only has a mere 30,000, so I don't believe that Yun Zheng dares to come out and fight head-on."
Although this will consume a lot of grain and grass, it is the safest way to deal with it. If necessary, we can also send a large army to completely block the exit of Yanmen Pass with boulders, and if they can't get out, they will naturally not be able to cause trouble to Xijing Road. ”
Xiao Huo'er was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately ordered the soldiers and horses belonging to Xijing to immediately assemble in Yingzhou, preparing to bypass Dulong Mountain, arrive at the pass outside Yanmen Pass, and build a pass to block the way out of the Song army.
Just when he was slowly reorganizing the army and setting off for Yingzhou, he reported that Shenwu City was lost! (To be continued~^~)
