Chapter 475: The First Battle of the Liao Soldiers and the Thief Army
It turned out that the Liao people did not commit crimes for no reason, but the Jin people on the northern grasslands had completely risen and threatened these Liao people.
However, he miscalculated, and now the Central Plains has been turned into an iron bucket by Shi Wengong, without the slightest flaw. And the soldiers of the Liang army are really working hard with their lives, guarding their beautiful homes and defending their beautiful rivers and mountains, but they are fundamentally different from the Song army in the past, which was just mixed with the army.
In this way, the border offensive and defensive war between Liang and Liao has been endlessly stalemate. The number of soldiers in the city of the Liang army was decreasing day by day, and the arrows and stones in the city and other equipment to defend the city were also insufficient to support for a long time, and finally, the soldiers simply boiled the water in a cauldron and sprinkled it downwards as a defense equipment for the city.
On the Liao side, although there is an increasing number of soldiers, their grain and grass are also decreasing, and in their rear, there are also the Jin people who are ready to attack in their own territory, it can be said that the soldiers on both sides of Liang and Liao are at a disadvantage, but they still do not distinguish between victory and defeat.
However, just as the two armies were at a stalemate for an unknown day, a force came in from a distance, giving one of them favorable conditions for attack.
This troop that suddenly marched into the battlefield was the 50,000 vanguard army brought by Shi Wengong, the king of Liang, and Lu Junyi, the pioneer of the Liao expedition.
When this Lu Junyi led his soldiers and horses into the battlefield, without saying a word, he took the lead in killing the Liao people who were launching a fierce attack on the Liang army's city.
When they saw this new force led by Lu Junyi rushing into the battlefield, those Liao troops besieging the city were also taken aback. What shocked them even more was that the speed and frequency of the army led by Lu Junyi were too fast.
As a result, before these Liao troops could make any judgment and action on the current situation, they had already suffered the brutal massacre of these Liang army soldiers.
For these invaders who dare to invade their homeland, all the soldiers of the Liang army will not be soft.
Soon, after a terrible scream, those invaders have left the price of blood on this land, and even their bodies will remain here forever, never to return to their beautiful prairie.
After dealing with these Liao troops outside the city, Lu Junyi marched to Waqiao Pass with Lin Chong's generals to pay tribute and greet to the Liang army who were defending the city.
The two generals who defended this city were the generals of the original Jin army who had served in the Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty before, and later served under the command of King Liang during Lu Junyi's northern expedition to Tianhu, as well as Lu Junyi and Lin Chong's northern expedition to Tianhu.
These two really did not lose the face of the Western Army, nor did they disappoint Shi Wengong, under the crazy attack of the Liao people day and night, they held the city steadily, and never let it be contaminated by foreign people, they deserve to be praised by the world.
Of course, for the achievements of Wang Yu and Zhao Tan, Lu Junyi did not hesitate to speak, but praised Wang Yu and Zhao Tan for a while, and Lu Junyi also divided the grain and grass he brought with the army to Wang Yu and Zhao Tan, who were guarding Waqiao Pass, and all the soldiers under their command.
"Lu Xianxian, this is not good, you have come from afar, and then you have to confront the Liao people head-on, it is precisely the grain and grass that are needed, how can we collect the grain and grass of the pioneer without authorization."
After seeing Lu Junyi like this, Wang Yu was the first to speak.
After hearing Wang Yu's words, Lu Junyi smiled and said, "It's okay, you two fought bloodily with the soldiers in the city, desperately defending for so many days, if this pioneer still spares this bit of grain and grass, how should the world look at me, how should I think of my lord King Liang?" Therefore, take this grain and grass calmly. ”
"This, okay." After listening to what Lu Junyi said, the two of them looked at each other, and then honestly accepted the grain and grass presented by Lu Junyi, after all, after this period of hard work, there is indeed not much grain and grass in this city, and the gift given by Lu Junyi can also be said to solve the urgent needs of the soldiers and civilians in the city.
After separating some of the grain and grass from Wang Yu and Zhao Tan, Lu Junyi asked, "Wang Yu and Zhao Tan, do you two know that the Liao forces in this vicinity are the closest to this?" ”
After hearing Lu Junyi's inquiry, Wang Zhao and the others did not dare to hesitate, and even replied, "Back to the vanguard, if it is said that it is the closest one, it should be Naha Prefecture City." It's just that before Naha Prefecture, there is also a Yijin Pass, which is the most dangerous, and these Liao troops who were killed by the vanguard under the city today came out of that Yijin Pass. ”
"If the general wants to attack the Liao people and attack their hinterland, he must first seize Yijin and then take Bazhou as the base camp for the Liao expedition, so that the Liao expedition can be carried out."
After listening to Wang Yu's analysis, Lu Junyi felt more and more that this person was also a talented person with a lot of vision, no wonder he would be entrusted with the important task of guarding the Waqiao Pass on the border of this girder.
After listening to Wang Yu's analysis, Lu Junyi said, "Okay, since that's the case, then I'll wait for this to take the Yijin Pass first, and then take Bazhou, and we must take advantage of the Liao people before they react, expand and win, and stabilize the battle situation before the arrival of His Majesty's pro-army." ”
After saying that, he saw that Lu Junyi once again led a group of soldiers under his command to the general and rushed towards the nearest Yijin Pass.
Because the main force of the Liao people going south was all stationed in Yijin Pass, and their siege vanguards were also killed by Lu Junyi and others under the pass, so it was the best time to attack the Liao people at this time.
It was precisely because Lu Junyi thought of this that after learning about the local situation, he once again led his troops forward without stopping.
It's just that Lu Junyi, Wang Yu, Zhao Tan and others in the Nawa Bridge Pass didn't know that the main force of the Liao people had already retreated from Yijin Pass to Youzhou three days ago. Because the newly rising Jin people in the north have already launched an attack on the frontier of the Liao people.
And because the Liao people couldn't capture the Waqiao Pass on the border of Daliang for a long time, they planned to concentrate their forces on the north to resist the enemy and confront the Jin people, but they thought that the newly captured Central Plains Daliang was too simple, thinking that they would only blindly defend and not dare to take the initiative to attack, just like the weak Song people in the past.
Next, Shi Wengong, the new owner of the Central Plains, wants to blind the dogs of these Liao people, make them lose their big teeth, and take back the sixteen states of Yanyun that they have occupied for hundreds of years!
