Chapter 369: Battle of Yanping

Wang Yan returned to the camp and asked the scribe to take out the merit book, and began to write a recital to the emperor asking for merit, he himself originally wanted the title of governor of the three provinces, the commander-in-chief of Huguang, Jiangxi, and Liangguang, but since the emperor had scruples in his heart, he had to retreat, but the merits of his subordinates, he could not help but play, otherwise the merit would not be rewarded, how could the generals use their lives?

Wang Yan wrote on the handsome case, and a large group of scribes counted the merits of ordinary generals and the rewards that soldiers deserved.

Gao Yigong and Liu Tichun made great contributions in the First Battle of Xiangyang, Wang Yan said that he was the chief military officer of the Hunan Governor, and Liu Tichun was the deputy general of Hunan. Dai Zhifan is the chief military officer of the Guangdong Governor, Liu Fangliang is the deputy general, Li Guo is the chief military officer of the Guangxi Governor, He Zhen is the deputy general, Yuan Zongdi is appointed to replace Wang Wei, rebuild Zhongyi Town, and Wang Shixiu is promoted to the chief of the superintendent.

In addition, Wang Yan also asked for merit for Jiang Yueguang, Jin Shengheng, and Wang Deren as agreed, and Yan Qiheng and Wu Jinxi, who took refuge in him, also obtained high positions, and as for the general generals, they were drafted by scribes.

Although there were dozens of officials to help, but the workload was still very huge, Wang Yan was busy writing the chapter, while asking the scouts to reconnoiter to the south, so that everyone could prepare to pull out the camp, and also took time to accompany the emperor to the shirt pass to pay tribute to Wang Wei.

Four days later, the scouts had figured out the route to the south, and the Song brothers relied on the drawings drawn by the scouts to restore the terrain along the Min River on the sand table.

At this time, the baggage rear team of the Ming army also arrived in Guangguang County, and the grain and grass of the Ming army were not sufficient, so Wang Yan immediately decided that the army immediately went south along Futun Creek and rushed directly to Yanping.

Fujian is a mountainous country, only the Minshui and its tributaries change on the march, and now in the narrow river valley, a battle that has a major impact on the situation between the Ming and Qing dynasties is about to break out.

Wang Yan's real strategic purpose was not to recover Fujing, but to force the Qing troops to withdraw from Guangzhou, not to fight to the death with Bolo.

Fujing is the place where the Qing soldiers and strong soldiers gathered, and the territory is full of eight banners of Mongolia, eight banners of the Han army, green battalion soldiers, and Zheng's troops, I am afraid that there are no less than 200,000.

At this time, Bolo must have learned the news of Wang Yan's entry into Fujian, he has a strong army in hand, so he will naturally not be afraid of Wang Yan, and if Wang Yan wants him to rush to the crisis, so as to withdraw the soldiers and horses in Guangdong, he must show the combat power of the Ming army.

In Fujing City, Bo Luo got an urgent military report from Yanping, and he carefully read two pennies before he was sure that Wang Yan really went south from Luang and killed Fujing.

After Zhang Cunren returned from defeat, Bolo learned that Wang Yan had entered Fujian, but he didn't care, because the essence of Fujian was along the coast and along the Minjiang River, and the land in northern Fujian was too barren to feed tens of thousands of soldiers and horses.

Bolo knew that he was heavily armed in Fujian, so he thought that Wang Yan would not dare to attack, and after saving the emperor, he naturally hurried back to southern Jiangnan, but he didn't want Wang Yan to rush to Fujing.

Bo Luo stared at the military newspaper intently, thinking hard, and always felt that Wang Yan's move was too abnormal.

He suddenly took a long breath, frowned and thought, Wang Yan, why is this? What is he trying to do? Fighting head-on with the Qing army in the narrow strip along the Min River? Even if Wang Yan can fight, it hasn't reached the level of 70,000 or 200,000, right? Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if he wins, what can he do? Recovering Fujian? With his Wang Yan's own strength, I'm afraid he can't do it, right?

Bolo put down the military newspaper, stood up, and thought about it for a long time with his hands on the desk, but he didn't have a clue.

In the first battle of Yangzhou, the world knew that Wang Yan was good at guarding, and after the battle of Huguang, he left a reputation for being good at attacking, and Bolo also knew that Wang Yan had always been treacherous, and he was still flexible in using soldiers, so he wouldn't have any other intentions, right?

Thinking of this, Bolo's eyes lit up, maybe Wang Yan's purpose was not in Fujian, but in other places.

Could it be that he wanted to encircle Wei to save Zhao and force Man Dahai to withdraw his troops from Guangdong, but he had tens of thousands of horses, I am afraid that he would not be able to encircle Wei, or did he know that there was turmoil in the south of the Yangtze River and wanted to contain me, let my army fall into Fujian, and then let Chu and Jiangxi's troops go down the river to take Nanjing?

Bolo couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when he thought of this, he was scared of himself, but he felt that the latter might be a great believe.

In fact, he had long been preparing to divide his troops to pacify Jiangnan, but Wang Yan's arrival made him suspend his plan to divide his troops.

Bo Luo was not impressed by Wang Yan, but when he knew that Wang Yan had recovered Chu Gan, he couldn't help but be terrified of Wang Yan's thoughts.

At this time, he thought about it according to his own thinking, but he felt that he was indeed in a dilemma, he wanted to return to the south of the Yangtze River, but he couldn't let go of the places in central Fujian and eastern Guangdong that he had occupied.

He can't decide Wang Yan's idea now, but since the Ming army is coming, he can't help but attack, Hong Chengchou also defended Songshan for half a year when the remnants of the defeated army were defeated, he believed that Jiangning, which had tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, could hold out for a while even if the Chu Gan Ming army really killed, so he decided to go up and defeat Wang Yan head-on, and then return to Jiangnan.

At this time, Bo Luo immediately ordered: "Pass the order, leave Zhang Cunren to lead 50,000 horses to sit in Fuzhou, and the rest of the generals will immediately pull out the camp and go to Yanping with the commander to meet Wang Yan." ”

At the end of August, the weather was not as hot as summer, the breeze was cool, the climate was pleasant, neither cold nor hot, and there really should be no war.

At this time, the literati and doctors should invite a few old friends, chant poems, compose lyrics, enjoy the autumn colors, and have no ink in their stomachs.

At this time, Wang Yan did not have such leisure, he was not here, but the Qing soldiers more than 20 miles to the south.

According to the spies, there were 20,000 horses in Yanping City, which were guarded by the governor Tong Guoding, and the Qing soldiers who came from Fujing also began to slowly assemble outside the city.

Both sides are in the situation under each other's noses, but they dare not act rashly, the main generals of both sides keep their minds, and slowly gather troops and horses, Wang Yan is not to capture the city, Boluo is not to defend the territory, to a bit like a battle between the two sides.

Wang Yan followed Du Biao in front of a group of generals, 10,000 fine horses, mighty, unhurried forward, horses' hooves fell like raindrops, making a shocking sound.

Now the supervising cavalry, after several wars, is no longer full of façade, they turn to fight thousands of miles, in Yuan Zongdi, Wang Shixiu's special research, the supervising cavalry hard to practice skills, rushing steep slopes, jumping trenches, attacking formations, and even riding archery, fighting, etc., dare not say that the practice is superb, more than the Manchu Eight Banners, but also the Southern Ming Army, can hedge with the Manchu Eight Banners for dozens of rounds.

(Thanks to the light madness of the boy, the death of the special battle, the reward of Yue Freeze Woxin, thanks to the monthly pass of the White Cosmic Wind 17, and special thanks to the gift of the last descendant of Saburo Shino, I will continue to watch three more tomorrow, thank you for your support.) )
