Xuanwei Army won one city and two passes, but it was still too greedy!

More than 3,000 people are surrounded by enemy troops on all sides, it is good to be able to get out smoothly, and if you want to hold on to Liangshan, I'm afraid it's not crazy!

Yang Congyi is certainly not crazy, if the Youyi army goes north and successfully takes Yulin, 10,000 people defend the city, the 50,000 enemy troops who retreat from Fusui should not be able to attack in a short time, they have no foothold, they will definitely go south to Liangshan, the Xuanwei army has the help of the people of Liangshan, the grain and grass in the city are sufficient, hold on for three or five months, it is not a problem, 50,000 enemy troops have difficulty eating and drinking, and they will not be able to take Liangshan in a short period of time and will definitely retreat to Huilong.

But now there is a change, the Yulin defenders want to pour out of the nest and recapture the Great South Pass, obviously the Youyi army was not put pressure on the Yulin enemy, the Youyi army did not appear, without the cooperation of friendly forces, Yang Congyi's plan to retreat from the enemy could not be implemented, if it was insisted on, it would put the Xuanwei army in a desperate situation.

Yang Congyi, who had a dry mouth, gradually calmed down after drinking a few sips of cold water.

At present, the enemy army in Yulin wants to take the Great South Pass, and the enemy army outside the Chengxi Pass has 5,000 soldiers, if the Great South Pass can be held, there are 1,000 people in the West Pass of the city, this pass will not be lost, if the Great South Pass cannot be defended, and the enemy army in Yulin will not go south to take the Great South Pass, and the West Pass of the city will not be worry-free, but if they take the Great South Pass and send troops around the south of the city, under the internal and external attacks, the West Pass of the West of the City will not be guaranteed. However, with the current scattered forces of the Xuanwei Army, if the enemy army in Yulin poured out, Su Zhong was wishful thinking to hold the Great South Pass, so the Great South Pass would be lost.

The Great South Pass must be lost, and the Chengxi Pass must not be lost, otherwise the enemy army in the direction of Shenglong will converge with the enemy army in Yulin, and the Xuanwei army will have no room for maneuver in Liangshan. Therefore, even if the Great Southern Pass is lost, the enemy army in Yulin cannot be allowed to go south in the short term, and the thirty-mile space from the Great Southern Pass to Liangshan must be used to destroy the enemy army that is trying to go south, or drive it back. The Yulin garrison is only more than 3,000 people, and the troops are stationed in Yulin and Da Nanguan, and the troops have been scattered, if they dare to divide the troops to the south, the 2,500 Xuanwei troops in Liangshan City can completely wait for the opportunity to wipe them out.

In this way, as long as you hold the pass in the west of the city and occupy Liangshan City, even if there is no guerrilla army, the Xuanwei army can form a confrontation with the enemy army in Yulin.

If this situation really forms, the Xuanwei army can completely accept it, because the occupation of Liangshan will cut off the enemy's logistical supply in the Yulin and Fusui areas, and the longer it drags on, the less the enemy's grain and grass reserves will be, and the more beneficial it will be to the Xuanwei army.

Da Nan Pass can be given to them to alleviate their anxiety and lure them to divide their troops, while the Xuanwei army can concentrate its forces and defend Liangshan City and the pass in the west of the city.

After thinking about it clearly, Yang Congyi immediately ordered to abandon the Da Nan Pass: "The order is to order Su Zhong to give up the Da Nan Pass, and within one day, bring all the grain, grass, baggage, and men and horses back to Liangshan!" ”

At the same time, he issued an order: "Order, order Yuan Hua and Liu Shi to stick to the pass, and after two days, there will be reinforcements!" ”

The herald soldiers were divided into two routes, one out of the west of the city and the other out of the north of the city, and quickly went to give the order.

Later, Yang Congyi found Yao Chang again to discuss the issue of recruiting young and strong people in the city to help defend the city. and told Yao Chang his overall plan of sticking to Liangshan to retreat from the enemy, and discussed whether it was feasible and whether there were still loopholes.

Yao Chang knew at this time that Yang Congyi's idea for this war, 3,000 people against 50,000 people, or in the enemy's territory, was indeed too bold. However, the people's hearts in the city have been obvious, and after the corrupt officials and corrupt officials were eliminated and they were allowed to earn a batch of food, they did not have much complaints about the Xuanwei army's rule in Liangshan, but the city gate was closed, which was somewhat inconvenient, but this was not enough to make them disgusted. In short, Liangshan City is now available to the people, and there is no problem at all in recruiting thousands of people to help defend the city.

Su Zhong retreated to Liangshan, the enemy army in the direction of Yulin will occupy the Great South Pass, there are only a thousand defenders in the west pass of the city, the enemy army in Yulin is limited, they naturally dare not divide the troops to cross the Liangshan City, and attack the pass in the south, but there is a small road in the southeast of Liangshan City that leads directly to the hinterland of Li Yue, when necessary, the enemy army is likely to reinforce from the path, if the reinforcement of the enemy army and the enemy army of the Great South Pass respond to each other, the Xuanwei army does not dare to go out of Liangshan City, then the west pass of the city can not stop the enemy army attacking from behind, the enemy army should be combined with the outside, not only the pass will be lost, The Xuanwei army will also suffer heavy losses.

Yang Congyi and Yao Chang spread out the map, and after careful deliberation, they believed that it was necessary to cut off the contact and communication between the three parties of the Danan Pass, the Chengxi Pass and the reinforcements in the southeast of Liangshan, so that the Xuanwei Army could have room for maneuver, control the Liangshan and Chengxi Pass, and completely cut off the grain and grass supply from Li Yue's hinterland to the enemy troops on the Yulin and Fusui fronts.

After Su Zhong abandoned the Great South Pass, a battalion of troops was transferred to the west pass of the city, and a part of the troops were deployed to the southeast of Liangshan City to control the small road leading directly to the hinterland of Li Yue, and the remaining troops were stationed in Liangshan. In this case, the Xuanwei army abandoned the Da Nan Pass is definitely the wisest choice, on the one hand, it has reinforced Liangshan and the Chengxi Pass, on the other hand, it can control the path to Li Yue's hinterland, and the Liangshan army will increase the troops, the enemy army in Da Nan Pass will not dare to go south, and it is even more delusional to attack the Chengxi Pass inside and outside.

If the Fusui army retreats to Yulin, the Xuanwei army can retreat to Liangshan City on the whole line, according to the city, 3,000 people confront 50,000 people, consume their grain and grass, and in a few months, the 50,000 army will inevitably retreat and withdraw to Li Yue.

With his mind decided, Yao Chang went to post a notice to recruit soldiers to assist in defending the city.

Assist in defending the city, and distribute fifteen catties of grain every month.

As soon as the news came out, the people who signed up poured in and soon crowded outside the barracks.

The recruitment requirements are not high, he is strong and strong, he can move stones, and he can draw bows and arrows.

One hundred pounds of stones, a bow of two buckets, and the people who applied for the draft passed by, and those who passed the examination immediately registered their names on the roster, and the Xuanwei military guards took them away one by one for rectification.

The Xuanwei Army recruited 2,500 people in one day, almost recruiting all the young people in Liangshan City.

After the first batch of recruitments was completed, led by Yao Chang, they immediately began to conduct basic formation queue and military command training in the barracks, followed by archery training.

In Liangshan City, Li Yue people have been preparing for the war for many years, and there are countless bows and arrows in the armory, although the quality is not as good as the sharp arrows and a load of five bucket bows from the Great Song Dynasty weapons workshop, but there are many of them, not to mention 10,000 people, even 100,000 people are enough to use, more than enough to fight a big battle. Because it was too easy for Li Yue's army to capture Yulin, Zuozhou and other places, the ordnance consumption was very small, and now there are a lot of stocks in the Liangshan armory. This is also the reason why Yang Congyi can think of using the power of the people of Liangshan, without armament and with bare hands, he can't stop tens of thousands of people from besieging him.

Soon after the recruited young men began training, Su Zhong withdrew to Liangshan City with the Xuanwei army.

When the first battalion was transferred to the west pass of the city to support Yuan Hua and Liu, another five teams of troops went out of the east of the city, 20 miles away, and set up obstacles on the path leading to the hinterland of Li Yue.

Su Zhong was left in the city, and now there are only 16,700 Xuanwei troops in the city, and there are more than 2,500 young people in the organization, this is only the first batch, and there are second and third groups behind, these people need to be trained, and at the same time, they need to be led.

Although these people have no concept of family and country, and have no sense of nationality and race, the Xuanwei Army is an outsider after all, and once those famous people in the local area secretly join forces to stir up trouble, the thousands of young people who are organized will become a disaster. So the recruits had to be controlled before they knew whether they were faithful or not.

At the same time, Yang Congyi asked the shopkeeper of the rice shop to help pay attention to the dynamics of the wealthy families in the city, and reported the news in time, promising that when the war was over, he would be able to return to the Great Song Dynasty safely.

Outside the pass in the west of the city, Li Yue's enemy army Chen had 5,000 soldiers, and several attacks were all shot back by the Xuanwei army with bows and arrows, leaving hundreds of corpses, and it was difficult to get close to collect the corpses during the day, so they could only take advantage of the night, stretching out their hands and not seeing their five fingers, and quietly moved people back.

With the arrival of 500 reinforcements from Liangshan, the defenders of the pass already had three battalions, with a full strength of 1,500 people, and the pressure on guarding the pass was suddenly lightened.

When reinforcements arrived, Yuan Hua and Liu Shifang learned that the Xuanwei army had abandoned the Great South Pass, and made every effort to defend Liangshan City and the pass in the west of the city, cutting off the supply routes of Li Yue Shenglong and the enemy troops on the front line. The two of them were immediately overjoyed, and secretly rejoiced, guarding this pass, and waiting for the end of the war, it was a great feat, which was much more beautiful than Su Zhong's capture of the Great South Pass.

The enemy army is stationed outside the pass, attacking for three days in a row, leaving a corpse, but it is difficult to approach even within 30 zhang of the wall, the strong bow of the Xuanwei army shoots down from the wall more than two zhang high, and shoots with all the bow, which can reach a distance of 100 zhang, but the guard is a protracted battle, and when the enemy reaches the front of the pass 50 zhang, several rounds of arrow rain cover the past, and the sharp arrow penetrates the body without armor protection, and the enemy can only obediently retreat.

A few days later, the enemy suddenly stopped the offensive and retreated one mile along the entire line.

Due to the long distance, there were no spies left outside the pass, Yuan Hua and Liu Shi did not know what conspiracy the enemy army had, and they were uneasy, while reporting the military situation to Liangshan, they strengthened their vigilance, and quietly re-sent spies to the outside of the pass to find out the enemy's situation.

In Liangshan City, Yang Congyi was extremely angry, and Yao Chang and Su Zhong were also angry.

"It's a shame that he is still a forbidden army in front of the palace, so he can do such a shameless thing, and when this battle is over, he must ask for an explanation!" Yao Chang aired.

Su Zhong said angrily: "The Youyi army is a bunch of all kinds of things, I saw it in Dongxing Laozi at the beginning, let them march north, just push three and four, and when we copied the back road of Li Yueren, they will immediately be like birdmen with wings, flying in Yulin to grab merit." These grandsons, all fucking aren't good things! ”

Yang Congyi exhaled a breath of turbidity, quickly calmed down, and asked: "The Youyi army has let the enemy army withdraw from Yulin, they occupy Yulin without blood, and more than 3,000 enemy troops will not wait for death in Da Nanguan, they will take a short rest, and the whole army will immediately rush to Liangshan, what should we do?" ”
