Nanshou Prefecture is waiting for the day

Beishou Prefecture suddenly surprised

In the middle reaches of the Huai River, there are two Shouzhou in Henan and Hebei, Henan Shouzhou belongs to the Song Dynasty, that is, Shou County, Huainan City, Anhui Province, and Shouzhou in Hebei belongs to Jin, which is now Fengtai County, Huainan City, Anhui Province, so it is called "Shouzhou in the north and south". Both places are strategic towns in the Huaihe region. For the Song Dynasty, the Huai River is in, the Yangtze River is in, the Huai River is lost, the Yangtze River is lonely, and the Huai River must be fixed since ancient times.

Shou County, known as Shouchun in ancient times, was called Shouzhou in the Sui and Tang dynasties. Shouzhou City is surrounded by water in the north, Dongjindu in the east, Chengxi Lake in the west, and Shilitou in the south. With a radius of 20 miles, it is a rather large ancient city. The walls of the castle were made of flat bricks and reinforced with stone strips.

According to the instructions of the machine speed room of the headquarters, Li Shuang, the capital of Jiankang Prefecture, led more than 30,000 people to attack Beishou Prefecture. In order to accomplish this task, he needed to travel 600 miles all the way and spend five days to garrison Nanshou Prefecture.

Li Du ordered the cavalry to explore the road first, greet the Shouzhou Yamen, and prepare to meet the army. When the army arrived, Zhang Zhaoluo, the governor of Shouzhou, led an official group of officials to greet him. "The great unification system has worked hard, come and rest in the state government."

There is no need to rest, after all, you are on official business, and you have to ask an adult to arrange a place to deal with official business. It is convenient to handle military affairs.

This has already been arranged, and the general system please.

As soon as he sat down, the vanguard officer came to report: Report to the capital, all the armies have arrived, and if you want to camp in the north of Bagong Mountain, please decide.

How far is this place from Cai Shang on the other side?

Reported to the capital, sixty-two miles.

Who is the Kim Bang Guard? Is there any movement?

The senator in charge of listening to the military situation reported: The defender will be the Shouzhou Assassin Stuk Tanxi, and the defenders of the city will have about 8,000 soldiers.

Is the bridge over the Huai River intact?

The bridge is intact and guarded on both sides.

Li Shuang then ordered: It's getting late today, so I will camp in Bagong Mountain, send people to closely monitor the movements on the other side, and attack immediately once we find that the Jin people have destroyed the bridge.

Zhang Zhizhou came in, the great system, you have nearly 40,000 elite soldiers, Shouzhou Jin soldiers only a few thousand people, as long as you cross the Huai River, surround it, within three days, you can take it, when the time comes, you will have to make great contributions.

Haha, it's not that easy, you have to attack for ten days and eight days, and a lot of things have to rely on Lord Zhang.

It's easy to say, as long as the general system gives an order, my Shouzhou Yamen wants people and things. Marshal, you see that it is getting late, enjoy your face, let me pick up the wind and wash the dust for you and the generals.

Then it is better to be respectful than to obey fate.

The atmosphere of the banquet was quite harmonious, and with the help of the courtesans, both the guests and the hosts were drunk and dizzy.

The next day, near noon, Li Shuang woke up, fortunately, it was raining heavily outside, and he couldn't do anything. The pioneer officer came to ask for instructions, big handsome, when will you cross the river?

Li Shuang pointed outside, look, how can you march in such a heavy rain? Even if you cross the river? When you arrive outside Shouzhou City, do you just stand and let it rain heavily? When to stop and when to leave?

Seeing that the pioneer officer was yelled at by him, his tone was softened: send someone to check the depth of the river to see where they can cross the river by foot, ask the sappers to prepare more wood, and as soon as the rain stops, prepare to build a bridge to cross the river, and then check how many soldiers there are in the surrounding counties.

But this rain just keeps falling, although it is early summer, it doesn't matter if people are drenched in a little rain, but it has been raining for three days in a row, the ditch is full of rivers, and it is wet everywhere. More importantly, tens of thousands of people are stuffed in military tents, and the mood of the people is as bad as the weather, boring and irritable, gambling money, petty theft, and sneaking out to visit brothels are increasing.

If you are a soldier, you are no better than an officer.

The rain finally stopped, and the high command demanded that the city be attacked within ten days, and so far, the river has not been crossed. However, in the past two days, Li Dutong drank flower wine every day, and there were beautiful women to accompany him at night, so he had too much physical exertion, caught a cold and fever, and couldn't get up softly. Then he ordered Wang Siping, the deputy commander, to command the crossing of the river.

Accompanied by the pioneer officer, Deputy Dutong Wang came to the south bank of the Huai River. Since the partition of the two sides of the strait, the north-south traffic has only relied on this simple suspension bridge. This bridge is bounded by Zhonghong, half of each on both sides, someone needs to cross the bridge on weekdays, they have to discuss with each other, the two bridges are connected, and they can cross the bridge. Now, the suspension bridge on Jinbang's side has been demolished, apparently hearing the movement and doing it secretly in the heavy rain. If you want to cross the bridge from here, you need to pave the northern section. Let the sappers measure it, the water depth is five meters, and it is not easy to build a bridge. Recently, it has rained a lot and the river has swelled, so it is quite difficult to cross the river on foot in a short period of time.

Only by re-selecting a place to build a bridge, the sappers have already explored, this suspension bridge to the west, there is a section of the river that is shallow, can build a bridge. However, the opposite bank is a hillside, and the army has been unable to turn around in the past, and if the Jin soldiers block here, there will be casualties, and besides, with so many soldiers, it is not a matter of building three or two small bridges.

In the end, it was decided to build a pontoon bridge every two miles to the east, and when the bridge was built, pay close attention to the movement on the other side, and as soon as there were golden soldiers found, immediately stop, concentrate forces to return fire, kill one less and one less, and strive to destroy more enemies on the river.

Two days later, the army had not yet crossed the river, Li Shuang was anxious, and the vanguard officer replied that building a bridge was a disguise, and by building a bridge, the enemy would be destroyed, and there would be only a few thousand people, and they would not be able to consume it at all.

Nonsense, when is that going to be? People won't move rescuers?

So he found Zhang Zhizhou and asked him to solve the ferry and plank. Zhang Zhizhou was well prepared, and soon mobilized nearly 200 small boats and many wooden planks. The boats were connected, and then the wooden planks were erected, and the pontoon bridge, about a mile wide, was erected, and in only half a day, the army crossed the Huai River, and met with little resistance.

Soon arrived at the city of Beishouzhou, Li Shuang rode on a horse, and when he looked around, the city gate was closed, the suspension bridge was hung high, and the city wall seemed to be visible, and the golden soldiers in armor were patrolling.

The moat is about five zhang wide, the city wall is about three zhang high, it is made of bricks and stones, and there are five gates. Li Shuang divided the army into ten teams, each of the five teams attacked one door, and the rest was used for the attack.

At midday, the army was preparing to camp in an open field five miles east of the city. Zhang Zhizhou thought it was impossible, and told Li Dutong that the place name here is Qianlongwa, also called Nantang, you think, a dragon is not in the river, and when he arrives at a shoal, can he still show it.

In that year, when Taizu conquered the Southern Tang Dynasty, he was besieged here by the later lord Li Yu, who was short of grain and grass, and there were no reinforcements outside, and the situation was very urgent. Gao Junbao, the son of the general Gao Huaide, risked his life to fight his way out of the siege and returned to Tokyo Bianliang to move the rescue troops. Tao Sanchun, a brave and warlike female general, personally hung the seal of the commander, led the troops to help, and ordered Gao Junbao to be the vanguard, Gao Junbao went to Shuangsuo Mountain in the northwest of Mengcheng, and met Liu Jinding, a talented and beautiful woman, and a strong heroine in the martial arts world, the two fell in love at first sight, and decided to go to Bagong Mountain together for life. Liu Jinding led his troops to Bagong Mountain to kill the four battalions, and finally broke into Tang Shuai's tent from Shoutang Pass, and blocked the Nantang Lord in the canyon between Bagong Mountain and the Huai River, and annihilated the enemy with fire to lift the siege of Nantang.

Li Shuang said, there is such an allusion, so what do you think is good?

Eight miles northeast of the city, there is a mountain backer Zhuangzi named Bai Li Ying, Beili wins, you see how good, you camp according to this hill, end to end, isn't it very good?

Began to attack the city, the Jin army defending the city waited for work, closed tightly, affected by the rain, the city wall was very slippery, there was no ladder at all, and the assault rifle and artillery could not be used, therefore, ten days passed, no effect.

At this time, the news of the defeat of Suzhou Weike had been learned. Li Shuang said to his subordinates, let's not worry, just spend it with him, you can't beat it around, it's better than defeat, as long as there is no foreign aid, sooner or later, you will be defeated.

In this unhurried attack, Tuktansi stubbornly defended, although there were few casualties, and after another ten days, although the city was damaged, it had not yet been captured.

What Li Shuang couldn't imagine anymore was that a middle-aged man walked out of the city of Nanshouzhou, crossed the Huai River, and went all the way to the north. This person's name is Yan Zhong, a spy sent by Fushi Lie Ziren.

Qizhu, the judge of the Henan Unified Army Division, and the guerrilla McGlon led 3,000 cavalry to the outside of Beishouzhou City quietly. After learning about the stationing of the Song army, at midnight, in the northwest corner of the city, the intelligence was sent into the city with arrows, and the information was flanked outside the city.

Everything was done seamlessly, Li Shuang's army was unaware, and a huge conspiracy was brewing and implementing.

The next day, the sky is bright, Qizhu led part of the cavalry to attack the Song army outside the city gate, many soldiers are vague, they become the ghost of the knife, some reflect, hastily respond to the battle, suddenly, the city gate is opened, the drawbridge is put down, the golden soldiers in the city swarm out, inside and outside the attack, the Song soldiers have fallen to the ground and died, scattered the Song army besieging the city, and the two Jin armies went straight to the Bai Li Ying camp. The tearing and shouting outside the city gate also alarmed the soldiers stationed here, they hurriedly reported to the commander, and the commander reported upwards, and when Li Shuang was woken up, the armies of Tuktansi, Qizhu and McGlon all surrounded them, rushed and attacked, killing and wounding a large number of people, and the guards hurriedly pulled Li Shuang, who was not fully dressed, on his horse, and hurriedly fled to the east.
