Chapter 1099: The Jurchens of the Great Song Dynasty

The walls have collapsed?

How can it be!?

That's amazing......

This is a demon law, no, it's not a demon law, it's a heavenly principle!

It turns out that Ah Gu is right, Tianli is really invincible! In the future, you must believe in heavenly principles! Doubts can no longer be made......

Wanyan Zonghan was convinced this time. When he first set off from Changping, he still felt that the Youzhou Army was nothing remarkable. Those vassal generals looked quite weak, not much stronger than the Khitan in Xiao Hai.

As a result, when he arrived at the city of Khan Prefecture, he knew that there were no bad seeds in the Youzhou army! Cao Yongyi's soldiers and horses don't look good, but they are really desperate to fight! Although it is still a lot worse than the warriors who gave birth to girls, there are many of them! Youzhou Town alone has a population of several million. If they are all like the soldiers and horses of the Cao family, the birth of girls is really full of 10,000, and they can't help but work so hard.

Therefore, Wanyan Zonghan completely dispelled the idea of invading Youzhou. However, he didn't think that Youzhou Town was stronger than Shengnuzhen, and until today, when he saw the roar of truth, he knew that the sky was high and the earth was thick.

Such a strong city wall, I don't know how to collapse it!

No matter how much armor the Jurchen warriors put on, they are not as thick as the city walls, right? If a "truth" is smashed down, how many must die?

Of course, if Youzhou Junguang has the "truth", Wanyan Zonghan will not be afraid. But the infantry has a spear formation, the cavalry has an equipped phalanx, what fleet is there on the water, and what are the sappers who will repair the night city. It's a multi-class fight in tandem!

There are only strong men who can wear heavy armor and iron cavalry who can impact and shoot arrows, even if they are all brave, it is difficult to win, right?

However, the Youzhou army is so fierce, Da Liao is finished! After Yan Zonghan thought about it, when he returned to press the tiger water, he would support Ah Guda, immediately play the anti-flag, and stand on the side of the Great Song Dynasty, it is better to profess to the Great Song Dynasty!

Wanyan Zonghan actually wanted to claim his vassal to the Great Song Dynasty...... If Wu Haogu knew his thoughts, he would probably be crying and laughing.

Will there be a big gold country in the future? Ah Guda won't become the envoy of the Liaodong Festival of the Great Song Dynasty, the protector of Anton, the king of Jin or something, right?

If this is really the case, Zhao Ji didn't pick up a cheap one for nothing?

"Wan Sheng! Victory ......"

"Boom, boom!"

The cheers and shelling continued to alternate until the barrel of the gun was hot, and then it gradually stopped. At this time, a large section of the city wall in the south of Wende County was already riddled with bullets, and a huge gap appeared near the city gate. The upper half of the wall in that area was gone, and the rammed earth collapsed and became a slope. You don't need any siege engines, anyone can climb it.

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

"Republicans, forward!"

The sound of drums and the heart-rending shouts of the officers resounded throughout the positions of the Youzhou Army. The generals of the Cao family, the Zuo family, and the Yu family, who finally survived the debt crisis, also began to recognize the Youzhou Republic Government from the bottom of their hearts at this time. With the republican government, you can really win the war. So they also began to call themselves "Republican Army"!

The first wave of attacking troops began to roll forward, all armor, all leather armor and cotton armor. They carried the door panels and wooden ladders, and shouted forward. From their starting position to the breach in the city wall of Wende County, it was only two hundred paces, and there was a trench in between. Moreover, the battlefield was filled with smoke from artillery fire, which was just enough to cover the attacking infantry.

Their task was to build dozens of improvised bridges over the trenches using planks and ladders the size of doors, as well as their own bodies.

After the bridge is completed, some officers and soldiers will rush to the bottom of the gap in the city wall and set up ladders. Open the passage for the troops of the follow-up attack!

I don't know if it's because the bombardment just now scared away the Khitans at the head of Wende County, anyway, when the "Republican Army" built the bridge in the first wave of attacks, not even a single arrow was shot out of the city wall.

While the first wave of "Republican Army" officers and soldiers rushed into the trenches, the second wave also raised a loud cry and began to attack. This is an ironclad soldier of thousands of people, forming a magnificent lineup. In front of the formation, all of them are Mo Dao Hands! Under the leadership of the officer, they marched forward. All they need to do is to maintain their formation, step on the improvised bridge on the shoulders of the former army to cross the trench, and then climb up the gentle slope to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the Khitans who reacted!

"This is a combination of artillery and step! After the artillery bombardment ended, the infantry immediately went on the attack, using the smoke as cover......"

At this time, on the artillery position of the "Republican Army", an officer who had just graduated from the engineering section of the Knight Academy (the artillery section had only been established and had not yet graduated) was explaining the latest tactics to a group of "schoolboys" who could kill.

Tactics that seemed natural to later generations were all novel in this era. The coordination of artillery and infantry, artillery and cavalry, has only just started, and it has only exerted a little bit of power.

However, just this little bit of play also determined the loss of the last important stronghold of the Liao State at the northern foot of Yanshan!

On March 18, the fourth year of the Great Song Dynasty, the battle of Wende City, which was pinned on by Yelu to control Ligu, once again made him desperate. In just half an hour, the thin walls were destroyed by enemy artillery. The Liao soldiers, who were frightened by the shelling, did not organize decent resistance at all, so they abandoned the city and fled one after another, passing through the mountainous land called Zhangjiakou in later generations, but there was no name in this era, and left in embarrassment.

……

"The first general of Xihe Road has arrived in Baosai City, and before tonight, the camp should be repaired."

"The cavalry of Linfu Road has crossed the Hutuo River in Anping County, Shenzhou, and has not found any defenders of Liaogou. According to the order of the commander of the Jiejie, the Linfu cavalry will break through to the south bank of Mudaogou. ”

"Tao Xuanshuai, Zhendingfu Road is urgent, the Xiangzhou army encountered a large Liao army on the north bank of Zishui, its strength is around 10,000 people, the Xiangzhou army is invincible, and has retreated to the south bank of Zishui."

"The military report of the Youzhou Army, at noon on the 18th, Wuzhou Prefecture Zhiwende City was recovered! The whole territory of Wuzhou should return to the world of China within a few days! ”

Since the military report of the Battle of Yanzhou (Khan Prefecture) was sent to the Hebei Xuanfu Division's government office in Hejian Province, the counteroffensive of the subordinate armies of the Hebei Xuanfu Division began. The battle report on the front line was brought back to Hejian Mansion by the silver medal. However, Tao Jiefu's Xuanfu Department is in chaos and order. The generals, commanders, and officials who came and went in and out of the public hall were in a hurry, but there was no panic.

Tao Jiefu, Tan Zhi (he is now back to be a supervisor of the army), Yang Keshi, and several military aircraft gathered next to the wooden map in the hall, all of them were attentive, listening to the military report, and watching a military plane insert small flags of different colors on the wooden map.

Tao Jiefu put his hands behind his back and looked down at Mutu: "What's going on with Zhendingfu Road?" How could you encounter the Liao people on the north bank of Zishui? Send someone to ask for clarification. ”

Yang Keshi hurriedly bowed down and replied: "Yu Xuanshuai, the last general has already sent someone to ask." However, it is worried that the Liao people may make some moves in the direction of Zhendingfu Road. ”

"How is that possible?" Tao Jiefu shook his head, "The ancient capital of Wuhao is about to hit the mandarin ducks!" What else do the Liao people toss on Zhendingfu Road? Besides, didn't Hedong report that the Sun and Moon Divine Shrine of the Lord of Liao had been discovered outside Yanmen Pass? The Liao lords have moved their troops, what tricks can the Liao people play on Zhendingfu Road? ”

"Maybe we will launch a feint attack on Zhendingfu Road and cooperate with the army of the Liao Lord to attack Yanmen Pass, right?" Tan Zhi reminded in a low voice.

"Feint?" Tao Jiefu thought for a moment, "Why isn't it a decisive battle?" If the Han family's Xiangzhou army suffered another fiasco, then the right flank of Hedong would be really dangerous. ”

"Xuan Shuai," Yang Keshi asked, "Do you want to send a new army to help?" ”

"Where?" Tao Jiefu asked rhetorically.

"From Cheongju ......"

Tao Jiefu glanced at Yang Keshi, which made Yang Keshi tremble and didn't dare to speak anymore.

"Send an order to the Korean group to practice, be sure to stick to the front line of nourishing water." Tao Jiefu said, "Hold the water, and you will make a great contribution to the Xiangzhou regiment!" ”

"Whoa!"

The military plane in the hall answered loudly, and sent Tao Jiefu's military order to Hejian Mansion more than 300 miles away by riding a stagecoach.

But no one would have thought that the battle of Zishui that just happened was just a prelude to a large-scale military operation of the Liao army!

……

On the north bank of Zishui, the sky gradually brightened, Xiao Gan rode his horse, just standing on a high place with a few generals of Xi Wangfu, in front of them, more than 100 Xi soldiers were scattered all over the north bank of the river, just looking at the south bank of the Zishui River where the morning mist was still fluttering.

Just the day before yesterday, the 10,000 Xi Wangfu infantry commanded by Xiao Gan and the 5,000 infantry led by Wu Song, the general under Han Xiaoxuan, fought a bloody battle on the river beach in front of him.

The result was that the winner was indistinguishable, and in the end, the Xiangzhou infantry withdrew from the battle through the pontoon bridge under the cover of night.

Through this contest, Xiao Gan felt more and more that the future of the Great Liao Kingdom was bleak.

Because the tactics of the Song army are very difficult! Not only will they fight in formation, but they will also cover themselves with sandbags on the battlefield. Once the sandbags are built into a chest wall, combined with their crossbows and spears, it is an unbreakable formation.

Even if it can be broken, it doesn't mean much. Could it be that Xiao Gan wanted to exchange the lives of 5,000 Xi people for the lives of 5,000 Han people? How many talents are there? Can you afford it?

However, Xiao Gan did not fail to find the flaws of his opponent. The opponent's flaw is the word "slow", the march is slow, the formation is slow, and the construction of a battalion is also slow.

Therefore, the most correct way to deal with the "slowness" of the Song army should be "fast", and if you fight slow with fast, you will be invincible.

Of course, "fast" does not mean "light", let alone "weak". Rather, it is necessary to combine "fast", "heavy" and "strong".

There is no need to blindly seek speed, just need to be a little faster than the Song army that is moving at a turtle speed. They are 30 miles a day, and their own 50 miles a day, which is enough. It was enough to bypass the turtle formation of the Song army and break through in the direction of the east of the river!
