224: Bag, soft egg
The Qin army held the two Wei bridges and did not really strangle the return of the Song army, but it was a fact that the Song army was forced to withdraw, because Xianyang City was small and difficult to defend, and once the main supply line was broken, there was only one way to withdraw.
However, if the Song army took the Dongwei River, or went north to Yaozhou, in this way, Chang'an became an isolated city, not to mention, the 100,000 army was equivalent to being chased by the Qin army, and the road conditions were very difficult.
Some people may ask, this area is all plains, why is it difficult to walk?
But I don't know that the north bank of the Wei River looks like a plain, but all the way to the east, there are Jingshui, Nanbaiqu, Yegu River, Qinggushui and other rivers to block.
The Qin army's strategic plan was implemented very thoroughly, and the battle has been fought until now, and it is still the four-character formula of "entanglement, grinding, wearing, and delaying", and winning the greatest victory at the minimum cost.
"I can only withdraw first, if today, the geographical advantage is lost, and there are a lot of complaints in the army, I can't stay here anymore, General Han, what do you think?"
"So far, we can only ...... Withdraw, but, General Wang, our side came from Dongwei Bridge, and it would be half a day's detour, is this route feasible? ”
Wang Quanbin stroked the hilt of his sword, shook his head and said: "This road, at present, the Qin army's strength is not able to catch it is one thing, but as long as we take this road, the enemy will divide the army into two roads, all the way to the Jingshui River to attack, all the way to the south of the Dongwei Bridge to block, so, our army will be in a dilemma, you know, there are more than 20,000 enemy troops on the south bank, if the Dongwei Bridge can be attacked, the West Wei Bridge will be recaptured long ago." ”
Han Chongbin was unwilling, but after pondering for a long time, he could only accept the facts: "In this way, you can only go north to Yaozhou?" ”
"That's all there is to it."
"But I lost the ...... of Jingzhao Mansion"
"In this situation, we can't afford it, and the officials also know it, so we can only preserve our strength first, regroup, and wait for the spring of the next year to bloom, and then shame again."
Han Chongyun rubbed his bloodshot eyes, slapped the armrest of the chair heavily when he put down his hand, and said hatefully: "It's hateful that Cao Han is insidious and cunning, has no responsibility, retreats, but does not enter the city, if there are his nearly 10,000 soldiers, Chang'an City ...... Chang'an City, how to entrust the military power to the hands of the young general Hu Yanzan, alas......"
Yang Xinnong raised his eyebrows, and the light in his eyes flashed.
Wang Quanbin and Han Chongyun were both full of thoughts, but they didn't notice it, but Tian Chongjin found out and said dissatisfiedly: "General Yang, it's time for the end, what else do you want to say?" ”
Wang Quanbin said with a smile: "The gentleman wants to be quick in words and quick in action, General Yang, this is not the court, there are only four of us in the room, what do you think, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”
Yang Xin, about the end of the Song Dynasty, was one of the most cautious generals.
Historically, many people confuse him with Yang Ye's father Yang Hongxin, in fact, he is not a few years older than Yang Ye, but he has long been in the palace of the former commander of the Marquis Yu, all commanded to make it prominent, and was in charge of the Song Dynasty forbidden army for fifteen years, deeply trusted by the Song brothers, and there was no second person in the Song Dynasty.
But it also paid a huge price, pretending to be dumb for a full twelve years.
It was really not good for the old qualifications in front of him, he was going to use this trick as a retreat, but he was even more trusted by the emperor, and he had been holding the highest military power in front of the palace, and he couldn't hold back before he died, so he started to speak.
Historical records: "Although the letter is sick, the quality is self-sufficient, the soldiers are treated well, the finger is Gu Shen, and the movement is disciplined, so it is trusted, and there is no doubt in the end...... The day before the letter died, he suddenly recovered, and he was shocked when he heard it, but he was fortunate to be the first. The letter said that he had encountered two dynasties, his grace was magnificent, he was grateful and emotional, and he was ......
Now because of history, he has not yet reached the time to pretend to be dumb, but his nature is to be cautious, and he will not speak until he has to, he thought about it and smiled: "It's just that someone is guessing, someone is thinking, maybe General Cao has a plan in his heart, and his retreat is on the bar, it is impossible to leave early tomorrow morning, if a certain person is not mistaken, one is to guard the bridge and rest, and the other is to receive our army across the river." ”
"You mean ......"
"Colleagues in the military need to be trusted."
“……”
There was a brief silence, awkward and heavy.
Cao Han is withdrawn, arrogant and untamed, and this expedition, he is already alone, except for the official family, no one can command him, at least Han Chongyun can't, unless he is respected.
But that's also impossible.
Tian Yang and the others looked at Han Chongyun, but Han Chongyun looked at Wang Quanbin, and finally Wang Quanbin set the tone: "Now send someone to inform Cao Han, and then wait for the reply to come without hurry, General Yang is right, colleagues in the army, we need to trust, we will send someone to send a letter and retreat from the camp at the same time, it is really not good, cross the Jing River and go north." ”
Han Chongbin nodded heavily, and then got up: "Okay, the day is about to dawn, so arrange a messenger first." ”
Wang Quanbin saw his stride out of the account, sighed lightly and said: "General Yang, General Tian, this matter behind the palace, don't embarrass General Han, you and me, grab lots." ”
……
The messenger quickly walked the Dongwei Bridge, turned back to Bashang, it was already over, Cao Han had not yet gotten up, heard the messenger coming, just dressed in clothes, and said sleepily: "Reply to your general, Dongwei Qiaotou, to ensure that there is no trouble." ”
"No."
Seeing the envoy go away, he personally guarded: "General, it's really for others to block the rain." ”
", Lao Tzujue hasn't slept well yet, go, arrange a battalion of men and horses to guard the Baqiao, but when he sees the enemy coming, just blow it up, right, there is a pontoon bridge downstream, that thing will be destroyed first and then move this stone bridge."
"Ah......h
"Ahh Oh, Chang'an City is gone, what else do you want to do with the bridge, which official dares to be verbose, Lao Tzu sent him a powder jar to play with. ”
“…… Promise. ”
At the same time, Zhang Jianxiong's department and Yang Ye's department successively knew the news of the retreat of the Song army on the north bank, and they also knew very well that Xiang Xun would send troops to catch up, and it would be boring to cross the bridge to join in the excitement.
At the moment, it was agreed that Xianyang City would be recovered for at least half a day, and Shi Tingjing would continue to defend the safety of the two bridges, which was now considered the property of Daqin, but the Song army could not be destroyed, and the others hurried to the southern end of the Dongwei Bridge.
This Dongwei Bridge is far away, the north of Weishui is to cross Jingshui, the south of Weishui is to cross Bashui, Jiayin horse fast, is the pioneer, the result of fast horses for half an hour, can see the stone bridge on the Bashui water, a thunderbolt on a sunny day, fireworks rising, hundreds of years of history of the bridge collapsed.
Jiayin was furious, turned downstream, and only ran for two miles, and the scout reported that the pontoon bridge had been destroyed.
"He's so ruthless, Chang'an City is still there, so he dares to blow up the bridge."
"So what do we do?"
Jia Yin raised his whip, groaned slightly, and said: "First hurry up and report to Xiang Shuai, this interception can't be intercepted, how many big results can only depend on them, let's fight Chang'an City, go, next time no matter who catches Cao Han, slap him twenty times for me first, and then pee for him to taste, ...... you"
To achieve great things, you have to be lucky.
This Jiayin Wuguan Road was smoothly walked by him, and when he entered the pass, his good luck was exhausted, just take the battle for Zhongwei Bridge as an example, if it wasn't for Yang Ye to rise up to his might, he wouldn't be able to win it.
wanted to intercept the enemy army, but was easily destroyed by Cao Han's more than a dozen gunpowder canisters.
Returned to Chang'an City, separated by 200 steps, was trying to show off his might, an arrow volleyed, fortunately he was good at martial arts, and he rolled up with a whip, who knew that the arrow was strong and fast, the roll was rolled, and he didn't use all his strength, and the arrow grazed the neck.
Although he was not injured, but for Jia Yin, this was a great shame, and he took the lance from Chishan's hand at the moment, galloped on his prancing horse, and shouted angrily: "Which bastard, what is it to hurt people with a secret arrow, there is a seed, and you will fight with your grandfather for 300 rounds." ”
A general leaned out of the city, and said with a loud smile: "It's your grandfather Hu Yanzan, who teaches you how to pretend to be a good grandson." ”
"Hugh has to be hard-mouthed, now that the Baqiao has been destroyed, this Chang'an City will become a lonely city, surrender quickly, spare you from dying."
At the head of the city, Hu Yanzan made a thumbs down movement, hummed two evil breaths from his nostrils, and said proudly: "Hugh said big things, there is a kind of attack." ”
Jiayin's Yang Lance laughed: "There is a kind, don't tie up the father and elder in the city and countryside, come and come, Lao Tzu will give you a chance to go heads-up, and win the lance in Lao Tzu's hands, this Chang'an City, I will not attack for three years, if you lose, you will lead the horse to the master, dare or not?" ”
Hu Yanzan just sneered.
Jia Yin lifted his face armor, snorted a mouthful of phlegm, and said dissatisfiedly: "The long man looks like a dog, but he is also a coward. ”
"Coward, who are you scolding!"
Jia Yin pointed at Hu Yanzan's nose with a lance blade, and once again spit out two words contemptuously: "Coward, bag." ”
