In the valley north of Yangkou County, in the northern border of Silla, an army of more than 1,000 people in disorganized clothes gathered here, under the banner of expelling Tang Kou and overthrowing the puppet king.

The leader of this army was the Silla general Yiyun Jinyi, who was forced to flee with more than 200 people.

"General, Jin Wenzhi is here."

"Hurry up!"

Yiyun Jin Yi's face was happy, and he led the generals to the outside of the camp gate, only to see Jin Wenzhi with a broken arm coming on a horse, followed by three hundred well-armored cavalry.

"I have heard for a long time that Young Marshal Jin is no less heroic than his father, and today I see it far better than the rumors."

Jin Wenzhi grabbed the reins and dismounted, and Yiyun Jin Yi stepped forward with a warm hug and praised him.

Jin Wenzhi brought 300 elite cavalry to make the generals under the command of Yiyun Jin Yi overjoyed, although they had more than 1,000 soldiers and horses, they only lacked cavalry.

In addition to the six elite cavalry of the Tang army, the rest of the guards and armies only had an establishment of 300 elite cavalry, and the Silla puppet army and the five state armies each had only 400 cavalry.

The cavalry of Jin Wenzhi's department plus all the thirty-five cavalry of Yiyun Jinyi were not much less than the cavalry of the first enemy of Da Nai Ma Defu stationed in Niushou City, and the chances of winning Shuozhou were more than thirty percent more.

Seeing that Yiyun Jin Yi had gathered more than 1,000 soldiers and horses, Jin Wenzhi was also overjoyed, holding the other party's hand and excitedly said: "I heard that the general is going to lead the troops to raise things, so I will bring my subordinates to meet me." There are puppet armies along the way, and I can bring five hundred elite horsemen to destroy the thief of Da Nai Ma Defu and capture him. ”

"Don't worry, Young Marshal Jin, you and I work together, and all the soldiers will be able to break the head of the bull and behead Da Nai Ma Defu to avenge the death of Eryun."

Yiyun Jinyi gritted his teeth and said.

The mountains of Soju in the northern border of Silla are endless, the mountains are high and dense, and the counties on the border are inaccessible, so it is a weak area under the control of the Silla court, and it has always been a hidden place for loyal ministers and righteous people of Silla.

Da Nai Ma Defu led the army to guard here, and repeatedly raised troops to clear and kill the loyal ministers and righteous people in the territory, and no less than 1,000 people died at his hands, and more than 100 families were wiped out by it. Yiyun Jinyi himself almost died at his hands twice.

If it is not this person, Yiyun Jin Yi can gather 2,000 soldiers, and he can be described as a deep blood feud with Da Nai Ma Defu.

"I don't know if the general has made a plan to march after the move?"

Jin Wenzhi hurriedly asked.

"The camp gate is not a place to talk, and I also invite Young Marshal Jin and the righteous soldiers who came from afar to enter the camp to talk."

Yiyun Jin Yi invited Jin Wenzhi to the big tent, spread out the map, and said: "After discussing with the generals, I decided to go down to Yangkou County first, and then go down the Chunchuan River to get the head of the ox." The journey is only fifty miles, and the whole army is in a hurry, and it can be reached in one day, and it will definitely be able to catch Da Nai Ma Defu off guard. After obtaining Niushou City, he divided his troops into various counties and collected soldiers and horses, which is expected to be able to collect 5,000 soldiers. Then go south along the North Han River to take the South Han Mountain City, where heavy troops are left to block the Tang army moving south. At that time, our army will follow the route of the Tang army to the south, go up the Hansan River to take the city of Guowon, cross the Xiaobai Mountains to seize Sangju, and go down the Nakdong River to take the city of Jincheng. Along the way, in addition to the Niu Shou garrisoned by Da Nai Ma Defu and the Nanhan Mountain City under the control of the Tang Army, the commander of the Sangju Army, Ah Yu Datu, and the commander of the Yangju Army, Yi Jin, both led most of their troops and horses into the Japanese, and only 2,000 defenders remained in the two states. Although the commander of Kangzhou, Park Zhengwen, did not enter the Japanese army, most of the soldiers and horses under his command were also withdrawn into the Japanese war, and there were only 2,000 soldiers left. Our army won all the way, and the loyal ministers and righteous soldiers will inevitably respond in groups, gather tens of thousands of troops, and attack Jincheng to overthrow the puppet king. ”

Jin Wenzhi thought about it, and didn't think that it would be as smooth as Yiyun Jin Yi said afterwards. Shaking his head, he said: "Yangkou is about twenty miles away from Pig's Foot County, and on the right is about forty miles away from Qichuan County, which is much closer than Yangkou to Niu's capital, and the two counties are each guarded by five hundred soldiers. Our army promised to take Yangkou and go south to the head of the ox, and the defenders of the two counties will definitely copy the rear road of our army. Niushou City as Shuozhou Governor's Office, Da Nai Ma Defu has built the city in recent years, the city is three zhang high, the defenders still have two thousand, our army may be difficult to capture in a short time. After Lu Nuo was copied, our army was in danger. The Hanshan River valley north of Yichuan County belongs to the Hanshan Governor's Mansion under the control of the Tang Army, and the two cities of Nanhanshan and Beihanshan are the places where the Tang army is heavily guarded, and it is also a fortified city built during the confrontation between China and Goguryeo, the terrain is dangerous and difficult to attack, and the Tang army can take the waterway to reinforce along the Hanshan River. Our army has 5,000 soldiers to fetch it, and it is difficult to conquer it before the Tang reinforcements come! As for going south to Guoyuan City and crossing the Xiaobai Mountains, this route was slaughtered by the Tang army when it went south, the population was sparse, the people's livelihood withered, and it was easy to capture but difficult to obtain soldiers' food, and it was dangerous to ......"

Being picked out so many faults in front of someone, Yiyun Jin Yi and his generals looked ugly, and some people choked up dissatisfiedly: "I don't know what kind of insight Young Marshal Jin has to come up with a better strategy to enter the army and capture Jincheng." ”

"Takami doesn't count, in my opinion, with a slight change to General Ichikumo's march route, the danger can be reduced a lot."

Jin Wenzhi said, drew a line on the map with one arm and said: "After capturing Yangkou, our army should quickly conquer the two counties of Qichuan and Zhuzu to eliminate the threat on both wings. Gather the soldiers of the three counties, and Liang Xiang does not have to take the initiative to attack Niushou, and when Da Nai Ma Defu leads the army out of the city to take the initiative to attack, our army can ambush in the valley from Niushou to Yangkou, and if it cannot, it will be attacked by the mountain. After the elimination of Da Nai Ma Defu, there are no soldiers to defend Niushou City, which is in the bag. There is no need to stay here after the collection of Shuozhou soldiers, and the whole army marched eastward to defeat the Mingzhou army, which now has only 3,000 soldiers, and the commander Sha Yan entered the Ming Zhou army. Along the east coast to the south to take Jincheng, there are no dangerous passes along the way, and the only enemy troops to deal with are the 3,000 Qing army of Jinluoshui in Yichang County, northeast of Jincheng, the left and right forbidden troops of Jincheng, 9,000 palace guards, and 3,000 Tang troops in Zhenyi City. When the Tang army went south along the east coast, it did not massacre the city and plunder the people, and our army could levy a lot of soldiers along the way, and it was enough to attack the golden city. Before I came, I contacted the loyal ministers and righteous men of the old country in the local area, and our army will raise the flag in response when the time comes. ”

Jin Wenzhi's strategy of advancing avoided the many fortified cities on Yiyun Jinyi's march route, and the distance was also shortened a lot, avoiding the danger of direct confrontation with the Tang army.

Yiyun Jin Yi and his subordinates have to admit that Jin Wenzhi's strategy is more prudent.

In order to avoid long nights and dreams, Yiyun Jin Yi and Jin Wenzhi decided to raise the banner of rebellion the next day to fight against the puppet king and expel Tang Kou.

More than 1,400 Silla rebels besieged the city of Yangkou by night, and with the help of the city's inner Ying, they captured the city gates, and half of the 500 defenders in the city were annihilated and the other half surrendered.

Jin Wenzhi non-stop led his three hundred elite horsemen to take the west of Lichuan County, Yiyun Jin Volunteer Department will take Pig's Foot County in the east, the righteous army occupied three counties in four days, recruited 1,000 soldiers, and gathered in Yangkou.

In Niushou City, the commander of the Shuozhou Army learned that Yiyun Jinyi and Jin Wenzhi who were hiding in Yangkou County had rebelled, and they connected the three counties within a few days, and they couldn't help but be furious, and personally raised 1,500 troops to go to the crusade, vowing to clean up the thieves in Yangkou County.

The counties of Shuozhou are separated by mountains, and only the valley that crosses the mountains can connect all places, so the only way to go north is to Yangkou along the valley of the Chuncheon River.

Yiyun Jin Yi and Jin Wenzhi set up an ambush in the river valley, but they were spotted by the battle-hardened Da Nai Ma Defu and killed more than 300 of them.

After this small defeat, Yiyun Jin Yi and Jin Wenzhi were not angry, and retreated more than ten miles to meet Da Nai Ma Defu according to the mountain danger.

Da Nai Ma Defu waved his army to attack the rebel army that was camped on the mountainside, and attacked for two days without defeat, but lost hundreds of soldiers and soldiers, and the morale of the army was a little low.

On the third day, Da Nai Madefu decided to try again, but if he could not resist it, he could only besiege and kill the rebels for a long time.

Unexpectedly, when the Shuozhou army attacked the rebel camp, Jin Wenzhi led the cavalry to appear in the rear of the Shuozhou army and caught Da Nai Ma Defu by surprise.

There are still 200 cavalry guards around him, and he is brave, and he is about to be lost in this battle.

Yiyun Jin Yi, who held the camp, took advantage of this to kill, and the Shuozhou army that Jin Wen killed before and after was defeated.

Da Nai Ma Defu only fled back to Niushou City with more than 400 remnants, but fortunately there were still 500 defenders in the city, and then forcibly recruited nearly 1,000 young and strong people near Niushou to defend the city.

Failed to kill Da Nai Ma Defu and annihilated his army, Yiyun Jin Yi and Jin Wenzhi were disappointed, and they could only attack Niushou City hard.
