Chapter 0596 - Kansai Withdrawal Order
At this time, at the crossroads under the East Corner Tower, Yang Guangyi's 5,000 cavalry was reduced by more than half, and the two armies under Shi Shouxin were not much better, and the two together only had more than 1,000 cavalry left to barely cope with the battle. Of course, the actual casualties were not so many www.biquge.info most of the soldiers fled into the nearby streets and alleys at night, and the square in front of Xuande Gate was open, where there was a small fight, and more than 1,000 horsemen were dropped on the spot.
On the side of the Guards Division, the one who rushed in front was Chen Jia, the deputy commander of Long Jie's left wing, and the horse team ran along the street, but still did not dare to mention the high speed, because there was no way to turn around if they rushed over, and once they fell into the enemy formation, they would be besieged. So when you get here, it's actually a bluff to force the other side to evacuate.
But at this time, Yang Tingzhang's troops who chased down from Mahang Street were all foot soldiers, and they lined up in the street without stopping arrows, and Zhao Kuangyin also blocked the intersection to fight back, and waited until Shi Shouxin and Yang Guangyi converged, and retreated all the way to Wangchun Gate to garrison the city.
And Li Chuyun and Zhao Yanhui also led their troops to follow under the Wangchun Gate, and divided their troops to the city gates to warn or persuade them to surrender, and divided their troops into the large camp in front of the palace.
At the beginning of the Chen period, Zhao Kuangyin sent troops to Dingli Yuan to pick up his family, led more than 10,000 iron cavalry troops to retreat from Wangchun Gate and the Old Song Gate, and met outside the New Song Gate in the outer city to count the men and horses, leaving only 12,000 soldiers to follow, and retreated to the southeast to the Qingcheng Wharf of the Bianhe River in seven miles, and met Li Cao, Liu Congxue, and Yuan Fang led the Zhenning Army and the Zhangxin Army 15,000 troops to block the way.
The town soldiers are basically infantry troops, the horse army only has two or three thousand cavalry, Zhao Kuangyin takes Liu Qingyi with two thousand cavalry as the vanguard, Shi Shouxin and Liu Tingrang each lead three thousand cavalry to attack, only one round of charge, Liu Congxue's Zhangxin army left line was defeated first, Li Cao's Chinese army followed the wavering, but the Zhenning army was stronger, but Zheng Debin was a civilian official, not good at command, and soon the whole army was defeated.
Yuan Fang, Yuan Zhaoqing and his son led more than 2,000 horsemen to barely meet the battle, but the horse army was too small to play a big role at all. Fortunately, Li Chuyun sent Chen Jia and Han Zhongming to lead 5,000 cavalry out of the city to chase and kill, and happened to have a big battle with Zhao Kuangyin's rear army headquarters and surrendered part of the iron cavalry.
Zhao Kuangyin fled in defeat, there were soldiers fleeing on the way, and at noon that day fled to Chenliu's whole team, only seven or eight thousand horsemen remained, and in the afternoon hundreds of large and small merchant ships were collected on the Bianhe River, and fled to Songzhou by water.
In the city of Tokyo, by noon of the same day, the generals of the various armies were sent to appease all over the street, and the soldiers who had fled returned to the camp one after another.
And Li Chuyun and Han Tong were not idle, with the edict in the palace, they sent troops to surround the camp of the front of the palace and the camp of the crane army in the west of the city, and more than 20 generals such as Zhao Chao and Zhao Ding who were close friends with Zhao Kuangyin were arrested and beheaded. and sent the generals of the forbidden army to hold the edict and rush to Xingzhou and Beiping Mansion to arrest Li Jixun, the envoy of Xingzhou Jiedu, and Han Lingkun, who stayed in Beiping Mansion.
Among them, Han Lingkun of Beiping Mansion is relatively easy to solve, and Han Lingkun can be easily solved by Xue Wenqian and Guo Chongfeng's edict; But Xingzhou is a little troublesome, although Li Jixun moved to the town of Anguo Jiedu for a short time, but he has tooth soldiers in hand, and a bad one will rebel, so he has to order Bai Chongzan in Luzhou and Fu Yanqing, the king of Wei in the Daimyo Mansion, to prepare to send troops.
On the same day, Yuan Yan was killed, and the body was sutured with the head in the war, and handed over to Yuan Fang for funeral.
And Zhao Kuangyin went to Songzhou, he falsely accused Zhang Yongde and Li Chongjin, as soon as the imperial edict arrived, Zhang and Li were probably very happy to beat the water dogs, and then Song Yanwu and Yang Tingzhang went out of Beijing to discuss, taking advantage of their unstable foothold, the odds of winning were still very large.
However, the battle of Jingnan that caused this disaster was imminent, and it was precisely because Xiang Xun and Yao re-met and Yang Shouzhen recovered Jingnan that Zhao Kuangyin further felt the crisis, so he hastily started the incident.
Now that Gao Baorong is not escorted to Tokyo, but to Guanzhong, then Zhang Yue will definitely play the arrangements for the aftermath of Jingnan, and the court will not allow it. After Zhang Yue's departure from Beijing and Zhao Kuangyin's rebellion, the authority of the Tokyo court plummeted, leaving only an empty shelf, if Zhang Yue did not support it, it could collapse at any time, for this reason, Wang Pujing discussed with Fan Zhen and others, and had to write to the Empress Dowager and send envoys to Guanzhong to negotiate with Jingnan.
There is no way, Zhang Yue wants to carry the banner of the court, and the court also needs Zhang Yue to support the table, so he can only discuss it. Anyway, Feng Qianhou and Li Duoshou were in Beijing, and Wang Pu had to come to Feng Qianhou for an interview.
Three days later, Feng Qianhou led Yang Xuanli to escort Zhang Yue's family out of Tokyo City, and there were also Zhongshu Sheren and Zhizhi Huzai, and Zhang Congzhao and Zhou Mingyuan, the guards of the guards, led two thousand forbidden army guards to accompany them, all the way to Guanzhong.
。。。。。。。。。。。。。
At this time, Zhang Yue had returned to Guanzhong for a few days, and the first and second elite divisions were stationed in the large camp outside the Yongxing Army and began to formally reorganize the Yongxing Army.
Wang Yanchao has been in the town for more than a month, and has basically completed the work of cutting and eliminating the town, and the 10,000 usable town troops have been selected, so that the 1st and 2nd divisions will each be assigned a brigade of auxiliaries. The other three armies of 7,500 men were reduced to one township brigade as the township soldiers of the prefecture.
On the second day after returning to Guanzhong, Zhang Yue officially issued the "Kansai Withdrawal Order", which is currently limited to the remaining nine towns in Kansai, and this withdrawal order covers the administrative divisions after the withdrawal of the domain, the reorganization of administrative institutions, the placement and retention of the marshal, or the selection and transfer of the staff of the Zhishi and the Marshal's Office. At this point, Zhang Yue's purpose to Kansai really revealed the tip of the iceberg.
The Yongxing Military Mansion sent the soldiers to the towns to give orders, and Zhang Yue then received the news that except for Xue Huairang in Qinzhou and Li Yun in Yanzhou, the rest of the towns were all carrying the autumn harvest tax and grain from the garrison to the south, and it was about to arrive.
This situation was expected by Zhang Yue, the brothers Li Hongyi and Li Hongxin had huge family assets and a luxurious life, and they were the former dynasty and the later clan, so there would not be any pressure on the reputation of changing the court, and the towns in Guanbei had already been infiltrated almost completely, and they were forced to do so. Of course, Xue Huairang and Li Yun rely on the old and sell the old, or have other thoughts, but as long as they don't come, the result will be the same.
However, Zhang Yue didn't care about this matter for the time being, and the war in the southern expedition to Shu was also launched, Zhang Jianxiong recruited envoys for the West Road, led 10,000 troops out of Songzhou, attacked Longzhou, Mianzhou, and Jianzhou as planned, and after opening the Jianmen Pass, he Jiyun, Bing Shaohui, and Shi Chenghong were recruited by Xingyuanfu East Road, and went straight to Chengdu. In addition, Jiangling medicine re-met and Yang Shouzhen recruited the camp for the south road, led 30,000 troops to return to the state, and first took Huzhou north to Chengdu.
According to the strategic deployment, it can be regarded as foolproof, and the Southern Route Army is directly used by the grain storage of the Jiangling Gao clan as logistics, and the location of Songpan is remote, and the communication is inconvenient, and Zhai handles the logistics from Enliu Town, which is too far away and has strong independence. But the main force of He Jiyun of Xingyuan Mansion is 35,000 soldiers, and this logistics burden is not small, there is nothing to do in the early stage, and it is necessary to provide support in the later stage, so grain and grass are very important.
If Xue Huairang and Li Yun resolutely refuse, Zhang Yue plans to send troops, but it will take some time, and now the training has the assistance of Wang Yanchao and Zhe Deran, Shi Yanchao was hung for a few days, and then persuaded by Wang and Zhelun Liu, he finally accepted his fate, but he still didn't sell Zhang Yue's face.
