497, Five Days of Life and Death (16)
In addition to allowing the independent division to assemble and prepare for departure as soon as possible, Zheng Fei also issued two orders,
First, he immediately ordered Yunzhou City, and ordered Wang Jin and Hu Yanzhuo's two armies, a total of about 50,000 horses, to rush to Qizhou to participate in the war, Qizhou suddenly appeared 80,000 troops, which is very likely to be the main direction of the Song army, and it is time to send those two armies.
The second is to send an order to Zhu Gui, asking him to immediately find out what is going on with the 80,000 Song troops who attacked Qizhou?!
Subsequently, it took only a few moments for the independent division to assemble, and after these few hours of rest, everyone regained their physical strength and spirit.
Zheng Fei led the generals to the front of the independent division, the sky was already dark, and everyone could only be seen standing in a silent line like a sculpture in the dark, although they could not see everyone's faces clearly, but there was a moving sense of slaughter, and the silence seemed to contain infinite strength and murderous aura!
Seeing this situation, Huang Song, who was following Zheng Fei, couldn't help but secretly praise in his heart, the independent division is indeed worthy of being the real elite of the Heavenly Dao Army, and this murderous aura alone is scary enough.
Zheng Fei originally wanted to give the order to set off, but after thinking about it, he decided to "breathe" from the independent division first, giving them time to prepare their minds in advance.
Zheng Fei said loudly, "Brothers, I just received a letter of help from Commander Lu of the First Army to Bozhou, Commander Lu Da knows that if it is not a last resort, he will not send this kind of letter for help, which shows that the situation in Qizhou is very critical, and we must rush to help Qizhou." As for what kind of difficulties Qizhou has encountered, it is necessary for me to tell you in advance that at this moment, 80,000 Song troops are storming Qizhou City! ”
As Zheng Fei's words fell, the independent division was still quiet, as if he hadn't heard anything particularly surprising, Zheng Fei was very satisfied with this reaction of the independent division, the army that was not panicked was the real powerful army, they didn't care who the enemy was, they only cared when you gave them the order to attack, and when you gave the order to attack them, it was the moment for the whole army to attack!
Zheng Fei knew that for such an army, it was enough to get to the point, and it would be redundant to say too much, so with Zheng Fei's order, the army left Bozhou City overnight and went straight to the direction of Qizhou.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The cool night breeze in early summer greeted him, blowing Zheng Fei extremely refreshing, and his brain was also very clear, so that he could think very clearly, after two consecutive big victories in Yanggu and Bozhou, and they were all defeated forbidden troops, he thought that this battle could finally be worry-free, but he didn't expect the situation to take a sharp turn, and suddenly received the news that Qizhou was attacked by 80,000 Song troops.
80,000 Song troops! It's no wonder that Lu Zhishen asked for help, there are only 7,000 people in Qizhou now, and the number of enemies is more than ten times that of them, even if the 80,000 Song army is as incompetent as the forbidden army attacking Bozhou, but the absolute superiority in numbers is enough to make up for the lack of any other aspects,
Moreover, Zheng Fei was still very worried, he was worried that the sudden extra Song Jun might not be small, and it was very likely to be ...... The Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty!
After hundreds of years of development, the forbidden army of the Great Song Dynasty was gradually divided into three parts, that is, the Hebei Army, the Western Army and the Beijing Division.
At the beginning of the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, after the dedication of Song Taizu and Song Taizong, the chaotic situation of the southern secession regime was pacified, and the small court of the Northern Han Dynasty attached to the Liao State was cleaned up with a thunderous momentum. One is in the north, responsible for dealing with the Liao State, and is the Hebei Forbidden Army. The original existence of the third Western Army was not obvious, but it was gradually determined later with the founding of the Western Xia and through the war with the Western Xia.
After the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty pacified the Central Plains, he could finally start preparing to recover the homeland of the Han Dynasty that had been occupied by the Liao State for hundreds of years, and this responsibility mainly fell on the Hebei Forbidden Army, which at that time could be said to have gathered the best generals and the most fierce soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty, and finally, in 979 and 986 AD, the Song State launched two Northern Expeditions aimed at recovering the sixteen states of Youyun, but they all ended in fiasco, and began to fight with the Liao State for decades of uninterrupted wars, until the establishment of the Yuanyuan Alliance.
But it must be admitted that although the Hebei Forbidden Army failed to recover the homeland of Youyun, it did not let the Liao State take any advantage from the Great Song Dynasty in the subsequent decades of warfare, and protected the Great Song Dynasty with tenacious fighting.
It's a pity that with the establishment of the alliance of the Yuanyuan, the Great Song Dynasty began a century-long period of peace with the Liao State, and the Hebei Forbidden Army, which was originally at the forefront of the army, suddenly lost its enemies and targets, and since then it has abandoned its armaments, slacked military training, and become lazy, from the world's famous strong army, to become a tool for moths up and down the court to make a fortune, and began to decay and degenerate at an incredible speed, so that when the shame of Jingkang occurred, Originally, the Hebei forbidden army, which could fight with the Liao army in the strongest period, actually fled when the Jin soldiers arrived, and let the Jin soldiers drive straight in.
Therefore, the current Hebei Forbidden Army can be called the weakest of the three current forbidden armies in the world.
After talking about the Hebei Forbidden Army, let's talk about the Beijing Forbidden Army, the Beijing Daimyo Mansion as the northern gateway of Tokyo Bianliang, is naturally stationed in the Beijing Forbidden Army, the so-called Beijing Forbidden Army, is naturally the forbidden army responsible for guarding the capital Tokyo, and can also be regarded as the emperor Lao Tzu's own personal guards, so since it is specifically responsible for protecting the emperor Lao Tzu, it should naturally be the elite soldiers of the elite soldiers, the strong army of the strong army. It's like the independent division is to Zheng Fei.
Therefore, this is also the reason why Zheng Fei decided to support the Yanggu front line first after learning that it was the forbidden army sent by the Hebei East Road that attacked Qizhou, and that it was the forbidden army sent by the Daimyofu that attacked Yanggu and Bozhou. Because in Zheng Fei's view, the current Hebei Forbidden Army is just a paper tiger, and I believe that Lu Zhishen's first army will be able to resist their attack. And the Jingshi Forbidden Army is different, the emperor Lao Tzu is willing to send his personal guards out to fight, of course he can't be lazy.
It's just that who would have thought that the so-called Jingshi Forbidden Army was nothing more than that, it was defeated twice in a row by its own Heavenly Dao Army, the three main generals forced one prisoner to death, and the 30,000 horses were almost wiped out.
Therefore, Zheng Fei was even more convinced that Lu Zhishen's First Army was absolutely sure that it would be able to fight against the Hebei Forbidden Army, which was actually rotten to the roots.
But now the 80,000 Song troops that suddenly appeared made Zheng Fei think of a possibility while being surprised, he wondered if the extra tens of thousands of Song troops should be ...... The strongest of the three forbidden armies in the world, that is, the Western Army, right?!
The Western Army is different from other forbidden armies, and there are three main reasons why they are strong.
First, the people of Qin Long, the Han style and Tang Yun emphasized righteousness and light life, and the Western Army established with it as the team was able to fight hard, dare to sacrifice, and fight with the Western Xia and the Western Qiang for a hundred years, and was an army that dared to go deep into the Gobi for thousands of miles to fight in the field.
Second, the Western Army and the Western Xia have never stopped fighting for a hundred years, which has also been tempering the Western Army to a certain extent. Shaanxi Zhulu Western Army, a family has been in the army for generations, men do not live to 30, and even a bunch of widows live together.
Third, since the Great Fan Laozi Fan Yong began to operate, the name of the strong army has been hanging for nearly a hundred years, and their generals are generally inherited from generation to generation, and the combat effectiveness of the ordinary Song army of "the general does not know the soldier, the soldier does not know the general" is much higher. Many famous family armies have emerged, such as the Fuzhou Zhejia Army, the Linzhou Yang Family General, and the Qingjian City Family Army.
Therefore, the Western Army is definitely the strongest of the three forbidden armies today!
It's just that the Western Army wasn't specifically responsible for defense against the Western Xia? Shouldn't they stay in Shaanxi Fourth Road? How could it be possible to come all the way to Jingxi Road to participate in the war?
It's not that Zheng Fei is worried, but the Western Army does have a precedent of rushing thousands of miles to participate in the war in history, and the most famous one is the suppression of the Fangla Uprising, the history of Fangla uprising in the southeast, gathering millions of people, in the southeast to fight the Song army without the power to fight back, the imperial court has sent the Hebei Forbidden Army and the Beijing Forbidden Army are invincible, and finally the imperial court had to transfer thousands of miles of troops, and the Western Army was urgently transferred from the northwest to the southeast, which quelled the Fangla uprising.
Subsequently, the Western Army also participated in the battle to suppress the Songjiang Uprising, and moved to Hedong, and finally even went north to Hebei to replace the Hebei Forbidden Army to participate in the war to recover the sixteen states of Youyun.
So Zheng Fei has actually been thinking about the possibility of this happening, after all, now the imperial court is facing the dangerous moment when a big chaos broke out in the east and west roads and southeast at the same time and lost a large amount of land, this situation is even more dangerous than the original Fangla uprising, so it is difficult to guarantee that history will not repeat itself, the court will decide to transfer the western army to participate in the war in advance, if that is the case, compared to the southeast thousands of miles away, his own Jingxi Road, which is on the edge of Tokyo, is most likely to become the target of the western army's attack first......!
"Zheng Lang......? What are you thinking? Hu Sanniang's voice suddenly sounded in his ears and interrupted Zheng Fei's thoughts,
Zheng Fei turned his head to look, only to see Hu Sanniang looking at himself suspiciously, under the reflection of the bright moon in the sky, the night wind blew, Hu Sanniang's long hair flew away in the wind, adding a bit of fantasy beauty to her, making Zheng Fei have a strong desire to protect her, just like the heart-warming moment under the cliff!
"It's nothing ......, lady, stay in Qizhou, remember to always follow me, the next battle may be ...... It's going to be tough. ”
"Well, Zheng Lang rest assured." Hu Sanniang listened to the strong concern in Zheng Fei's words, and her heart was warm,
Zheng Fei smiled at her, turned his head to look into the distance again, and secretly tightened the reins......!
Distant enemies, no matter who you are, even if you are the world-famous Western Army, I will kill you completely!
