Chapter 573: Northern Expedition (10)
"Cough, cough, cough~~~" This sudden anger suddenly affected the dark wounds on the body again. Wanyan Zonghan immediately bent down and squatted on the ground, covering his mouth and coughing violently. The guards behind him hurriedly wanted to step forward to help him up, but they were immediately stopped by the stubborn Wanyan Zonghan waving his hand.
After coughing for a while, Wanyan Zonghan slowly stood up. wiped a smear of blood from his lips, his eyes were slightly sunken, but his eyes were unusually bright. It's just that the pale face is extremely scary.
On the sad night when he was attacked by Yue Fei on the way to Yingzhou City, Wanyan Zonghan escaped by luck under the desperate protection of a large number of guards. But under the blow of anger and a huge sense of loss and frustration, he was forced to suffocate serious internal injuries at that time, vomiting blood and falling unconscious on the spot.
During the period after withdrawing from Yunzhou, he had been suffering from all kinds of idleness. All these things have made this arrogant king aggravate his injuries again and again, and at this moment it has reached the point where there is no cure!
It's just that Wanyan Zonghan has never talked about this matter to anyone. There was only one thought left in his heart at this moment, that is, to defeat the victorious army and keep the lifeblood of the Jurchen clan. At the same time, wash away the stigma on yourself!
Just now, he added a new wish to himself after Yan Zonghan, that is, after defeating the Chang Shengjun, he must tear the damn Wanyan Wu Beggar off the throne! This idiot doesn't deserve to be the boss of our Jurchens!
Wanyan Wu Qimai came here to take over the command of the army, which does not mean that he can completely command all the armies.
The Jurchens of this era still resembled a loose tribal confederation. Each leader and nobleman has his own direct subordinates, and he is only a nominal big man.
This is also an important reason why he was able to sit on the throne so easily after Wanyan Wu begged to die. Because this position is actually not too important at this time. The Jurchens had not yet completed their transformation from a form of tribal alliance to a feudal society.
said that it was given to 5,000 people, that is, it was given to the Jurchen own soldiers. Although there are a lot of old men and children in it, it is much stronger than those slave soldiers.
Even if he finishes Yan Zonghan and is now down, he is still the king of the Jurchens, the deputy marshal of the left, and he has also been very brilliant! In the hearts of the Jurchens who worship the strong very much, Wanyan Zonghan still has a very huge reputation.
Compared with Wanyan Wu, who has not been on the battlefield much, and does not have any prestige. At such an important time at this moment, the Jurchens believed even more in Wanyan Zonghan, a commander who had made immortal feats.
When Yan Zonghan made a plan and found some Jurchen magnates who had a good relationship, they all expressed their willingness to help.
This is one of the characteristics of the Jurchens in military deployment. The actual military command of the Jurchens was in the hands of magnates, large and small. If the commander does not have strong prestige, it is very difficult to command the army.
Wanyan Zonghan's plan is not complicated. The first is to send a small number of elite sentinels to roam outside. If they encounter a powerful army, they will flee and lure the enemy army to a pre-determined place, where the army will ambush and eat the prey.
If you encounter a weak enemy, catch up and cover all the way. In order to prevent the victorious army, they will also set a trap, and an army will be followed by elite sentinels in case of accidents.
Wanyan Zonghan's original intention was to test how the ever-winning army could always win when covering the battlefield! By the way, let's explore the strength of the Chang Shengjun at the moment.
In Wanyan Zonghan's mind, this was just a small-scale armed conflict. On such a vast battlefield, it is difficult for a victorious army, mainly a large number of infantry and a small amount of cavalry, to launch a quick and reactive skirmish unless a full-scale decisive battle is launched.
After all, there are no armored personnel carriers in this era, let alone transport helicopters! If you want to send a large number of troops to the battlefield where fierce battles are taking place, unless you arrive at the predetermined position in advance, by the time the reinforcements receive the news and arrive on the battlefield, they will already have nothing to do.
After Yan Zonghan made a battle plan, he didn't expect that this encounter, which was just a small-scale battle in his eyes, would turn into a fierce collision on a huge scale! And it will have a profound impact on the final battle that will unfold later.
When Gao Yang received the news, he was comfortably enjoying the dessert after breakfast. He had brought all of this delicious food from the modern plane, and it was no problem to put it in storage. There is absolutely no chance that things will go bad.
Storage space is like a completely independent, time-static space from another dimension. Anything in and out doesn't change, it's the best storage fridge ever.
The sun hanging obliquely in the air swayed the golden sunlight into this incomparably large tent of the Chinese army, and the warm sunlight spread over the entire space of the military tent.
A piece of pastry in one hand and a glass of water in the other. Gao Yang, dressed in a shirt and slacks, sat on a chair and leisurely enjoyed his leisure time after breakfast.
"You'd better take a look at this." Of course, the only thing that summoned Gao Yang back from his comfort could only be the origin.
"What's that?" Gao Yang took a sip of warm water and swallowed the delicate pastry in his mouth. I opened the laptop on the table in front of me, and through the origin point and the image transmitted back by the unmanned reconnaissance plane in the air at an altitude of 10,000 meters, I immediately saw a large number of entangled sergeants on the ground.
"When?" Gao Yang looked at the scene of the tragic fight on the screen, frowned slightly, and asked in a deep voice.
"It started an hour ago." Origin explained in detail: "In the beginning, it was just a small battle of hundreds of people. But the Jin army, lured into the trap, was followed by a large number of reinforcements. After being discovered by the reconnaissance plane, I notified Chen Fangliang, and he personally went to reinforce with a large number of reinforcements. ”
After a pause, he continued, "Because it was only a melee of 1,000 people at the beginning, I didn't tell you about this kind of small conflict. But now things are getting bigger and bigger, and the Jin army continues to invest reinforcements, and now there are more than 5,000 people! Moreover, through reconnaissance, it was found that there were still a large number of Jin troops behind them who were rapidly approaching the battlefield, and the number was at least more than 10,000! That's what I have to tell you. ”
"Smack." Gao Yang casually put the cup on the table, stood up, walked quickly to the side of the armor, and said with a solemn face while quickly putting on the armor, "This is not a simple encounter, this is a planned trap!" They will definitely continue to send a large number of reinforcements. Don't say anything, gather the generals, and send out reinforcements immediately! ”
"There are too many victorious armies, and there are people on all sides! The reinforcements we sent out were surrounded! "No sooner had the messenger galloping back to the camp from the battlefield turned over and dismounted, when his mount foamed at the mouth, whimpered and fell to the ground and convulsed.
"How much?!" Wanyan Zonghan, whose eyes were wide open, didn't have time to look at the tired war horse, so he grabbed the messenger, shook his body vigorously, and asked sharply.
"I don't know." The messenger, whose face was pale and his whole body was swinging, struggled and said, "There are too many, so dense that you can't see the edge at all!" There were heavy armor soldiers, and a large number of cavalry. ”
Wanyan Zonghan let go of his hand, the messenger fell to the ground limply, and the sergeant on the side hurriedly stepped forward to help the messenger to go to the military tent to drink water and rest.
Wanyan Zonghan paced back and forth in the military tent, his hands clasped tightly together, with a hint of hideousness in his expression. He really didn't think things would turn out like this.
His 5,000 men had already thrown themselves into it. I thought that the matter was nine out of ten, but it was disturbed by the sudden appearance of Changsheng army reinforcements. After that, I found a few Jurchen magnates who had a good relationship with them on weekdays, and asked them to send troops to support.
The Jurchen magnates were not ambiguous, and immediately sent their sergeants to help. But! The return of the messenger just now made Wanyan Zonghan, who was originally full of confidence and looking forward to the good news, feel chilled all over, like falling into an ice cave!
More than 10,000 people have been thrown in before and after, and they are still surrounded by people! How many victorious troops are there?
Wanyan Zonghan walked quickly to the middle of the military tent, where there was a hanging sheepskin map. With his eyes wide open, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the place of battle on the map, staring at the markers on the map.
"How is that possible?" Wanyan Zonghan shouted in disbelief, "This place is not close to the camp of the Changsheng Army at all, even if you set off after receiving the news, it is impossible for so many troops to arrive at the battlefield so quickly!" Unless, they have been waiting there for a long time! ”
Wanyan Zonghan raised his head and sighed, this is really a trap. But it's not right, the first thing I sent out was just a team of 100 people. As for the Chang Shengjun to ambush an ambush of such a scale here for the sake of a hundred-man team? This is too much to look up to this team of 100 people, and it's not like Wanyan Wu will go there!
At this moment, there are only two choices in front of Wan Yan Zonghan. First, because there were no soldiers in his hands, he could only watch as the troops that had been sent out were surrounded and eaten. This is fundamentally unacceptable to Wanyan Zonghan from any aspect. He can't afford to lose, and the Jurchens can't afford to lose! That's more than 10,000 sergeants!
Another option is to go to Yan Wu and beg for reinforcements! This is also the only right choice at this time. More than 10,000 people have been thrown in, and most of them are soldiers of the Jurchen clan. If they were to be abandoned like that, it would be a terrible blow to the morale of the military. In the same way, his prestige will also be greatly hit. This is his own plan!
"That's it!" Wanyan Zonghan stomped his foot fiercely, waved his arm, and slammed his fist on the map. "For the fate of our Jurchen clan, I don't want to lose face!" r1152
