Chapter 268 Finish Yan Xiyin
Zhao Huan's side also arrived soon, and Han Shizhong had already cut off the retreat of the Jin army from the waterway, "Okay! Zhao Huan couldn't help but clap his hands and said: "Spread my message, the whole army is divided into three routes, led by the three generals Yue Fei, Liu Moyu, and Liu Qi, and the troops are divided into three ways to attack the Jin army!" ”
After Zhao Huan's military order was issued, the huge war machine of the Song army immediately began to operate, except for 10,000 people who stayed by Zhao Huan's side, the remaining 180,000 troops attacked the Jin army.
Wanyan Zonghan now has 150,000 troops under his hands, facing the Song Dynasty army that is divided into three routes, and he can only divide the 150,000 troops under his command into three ways to deal hastily.
At this time, it really became a real duel between the two armies, and there was no strategy at all, and the only advantage of the Song Dynasty was that it was more numerically than the Jin army.
Wanyan Xiyin led an army of 50,000 to personally set out from the middle road to meet Yue Fei's army. Wan Yan Ping led an army of 50,000 to the west to meet Liu Moyu's army, and Wan Yan Qili led an army of 50,000 to the east to meet Liu Qi's army. Wanyan Zonghan sat in the center and coordinated all armies at any time.
It stands to reason that Yan Zonghan's tactics are really understandable, the Song army has 180,000 menacing people, and if it is evenly divided into three roads, 60,000 people on each road, the Jin army will respond with 50,000 people, but it will not be too embarrassing, after all, the Jin army's combat power is still there, and at this time, he is still confident in his troops.
However, Wanyan Zonghan forgot that the person he was facing was not a person who played cards according to common sense, although the Song army was also divided into three ways, it was not the three ways that were chosen, the 180,000 people, Liu Qi led 50,000, Liu Moyu led 50,000, and Yue Fei, who was in the center, led 80,000 people.
Yue Fei was originally a brave and good fighter, at this time, coupled with the leadership of 80,000 troops, it was simply like a tiger with wings, as soon as the two armies came into contact, Yue Fei immediately slammed into the ranks of the Jin army like a sharp knife.
Wanyan Xiyin is a famous veteran of the Jin Army, and it stands to reason that there should be no problem if Yan Zonghan asked him to fight against Yue Fei, but it was the general who met Yue Fei who was in a state of total victory, and Yue Fei's men were like clouds.
Gao Chong, Zhang Xian, and Niu Gao led the vanguard troops and killed the Jin army's team, the Jin army couldn't resist it at all, and the corps was directly torn apart, and the rout had been formed.
Liang Zhiqiang stood beside Wanyan Zonghan and said softly: "General, there is already a rout on the side of General Wanyan Xiyin in the middle lane, I'm afraid it won't last long!" ”
Wanyan Zonghan naturally noticed the situation here, his face was a little ugly, and he said softly: "I just don't know who the general who led the army here in the Song Dynasty is, he is so powerful, and there are 10,000 invincible bravery." ”
Although Wanyan Zonghan's words were a bit exaggerated, the courage of these 10,000 people to be invincible could be regarded as a very high praise for Yue Fei.
Liang Zhiqiang smiled bitterly and said: "The leader on the opposite side should be Yue Fei and Yue Pengju, the first fierce general of the Song Dynasty. ”
"It's him!" Wanyan Zonghan suddenly realized, and said softly: "The emperor of the Song Dynasty is far-reaching, and he is really powerful, he did not divide the army equally, but let Yue Fei, a fierce general, lead the army to take the lead in annihilating one part of our army, and the remaining two will become a stalemate in our army, so that after Yue Fei's army has eliminated one part of our army, he can free up his hands to support the other two armies, and then our army's three-way army will be defeated." ”
Liang Zhiqiang nodded, he was originally a general of the Song army who had surrendered, because of some military talents, he became a strategist under Wanyan Zonghan, at this time, he naturally did not want the Song army to defeat the Jin army, otherwise his fate would not be too good.
"General, for the sake of today's plan, there is only one way to abandon the car to protect the commander!" Liang Zhiqiang said softly.
Wanyan Zonghan frowned, and said to Liang Zhiqiang: "You mean, give up General Wanyan Xiyin?" Not at this time. ”
Liang Zhiqiang hurriedly said: "General, but in this situation, General Wanyan Xiyin has been bitten hard by the Song army, and it is impossible to withdraw." ”
"We have lost General Yan Zongbi, and now we have asked me to abandon General Yan Xiyin, do you want me to return to Shangjing alone?" Wanyan Zonghan said softly.
"But General, in this situation, if you don't make a decision, our army is in danger of being wiped out!" Liang Zhiqiang knelt in front of Wanyan Zonghan, and said with some sadness: "General Wanwang puts the overall situation of our army first, break through!" ”
Wanyan Zonghan didn't expect that the situation on the battlefield would become like this, he originally thought that he had an army of 150,000 on his side, and he could always have the strength to fight, but now it has become an army that is directly pressed and beaten, and the other two roads are also scorched, just like Liang Zhiqiang said, if he doesn't make a choice, he may really be gradually eaten away by the Song army.
Wanyan Xiyin must be abandoned, only if he stays, can he drag the Song army and buy time for the retreat of the army, if Wanyan Xiyin is withdrawn, then the Jin army will be defeated and retreated faster.
"When I went out on the expedition, there were four generals, Zongbi, Xiyin, Wanyanchang and me, who had already abandoned Wanyan Zongbi at first, and now they want me to abandon the old general Xiyin, this is ...... God bless me with a lot of gold! Wanyan Zonghan couldn't help but look up to the sky and sighed.
Liang Zhiqiang couldn't help but comfort at this time: "The general doesn't have to blame himself too much, General Zong Bi Jiren has his own natural appearance, maybe he was not caught by the Song army, and now he has escaped, after all, now our spies on the Song army's side have not spread the news that General Zong Bi was caught, right?" ”
Although Wanyan Zonghan knew that Liang Zhiqiang was comforting himself, he still had a glimmer of hope after listening to it, at this time, no news was the best news, hope was really like what Liang Zhiqiang said, Wanyan Zongbi had really escaped, so that the guilt in his heart would be much less.
"General, you have to make a decision, if it's too late, it's too late." Liang Zhiqiang said with some excitement.
The situation on the battlefield did not give Yan Zonghan much time to think, and the Song army and naval division on the Zhanghe River actually began to land, so that the Jin army, which was originally attacked on three sides, immediately became overstretched, and if it didn't leave, the Jin army would really be wrapped in dumplings.
At this time, a spy came to report: "General, General Wanyan Xiyin asked the general to hurry up and lead the army to evacuate, he said...... He's coming to break off! ”
