Chapter 58: Undercurrent (4)

Since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, the strong and weak martial arts, the scholars and the king rule the world together, and the people with the big turbans on weekdays are all looking sideways at the military ministers, but when the real thing comes, it is often these fighting men who are loyal to the state affairs that they can't look down on.

Although the strong culture and weak military force have been more than 100 years, seven or eight out of ten of the hundreds of thousands of forbidden troops in Dumen have been eaten empty salaries, that is, the actual number of soldiers and horses can still have some combat power in Bianliang, which has been peaceful for a long time, and it is really a big signal.

The martial arts have been eroded to this point, but the Great Song Dynasty still raised the Western Army, a strong army worthy of World War I, with the strength of the whole country.

The Western Army is capable of fighting up and down, but unfortunately it still can't change the cowardice of the scholars.

"We must not let the Liao people go to the Baigou River to exert pressure, we must push the front forward." Yue Fei also stared at the map that Yang Ling couldn't understand no matter how he looked at it.

This map is too roughly drawn, maybe people in this era are used to it, but Yang Ling can't see a clue.

Lei Yuanwen and the others are all on the map, north of the Baigou River is a continuous group of mountains, the military horses on both sides of the Liao and Song Dynasty are field armies, not suitable for mountain combat, but after crossing the mountains is some plains mixed with hills, how, how to choose a place worthy of a battle.

It's easy to find such terrain, but it's just a matter of picking one by one on the enemy's path.

But sometimes you really can't find the right place, so you have to give up.

For a long time, for a long time, Lei Yuanwen's gaze finally condensed.

"Jinsha River!" Yue Fei and Lei Yuanwen said in unison.

The Jinsha River is a small river that is not well-known, and it is only a hundred miles away from here.

To say that this place is dangerous, there is nothing worth keeping, but it is the only way for Liao people to come here, the river water has just reached the thighs on weekdays, but there was a heavy rain last night, it is estimated that the river will reach the lower abdomen for several days.

Even so, judging from the light cavalry of the Liao people, it is just driving horses and wading rivers, but there is finally a place where they can fight.

"Let's gather the drums!" Yang Ling saw that the plan was almost over, so he ordered.

The sound of drums outside suddenly rose, and less than a cup of tea went together, and the middle-level generals and officers with the above titles in the army gathered in the tent, Yang Ling waited for the generals to arrive with a straight face, and then coughed and said: "Everyone, there is a great merit for someone to gather you, and I want to give it to you!" ”

Although everyone already knew what was going on in their hearts, they still made a curious look at this time and said, "I want to hear about it." ”

"According to reliable intelligence...... Yang Ling looked back at the map of Hebei, and said in a straight voice: "The Liao people have gathered hundreds of troops and horses, and they have come to oppress the Baigou River. A certain and Lei Commander have agreed to prepare to fight the enemy in the Jinsha River! After finishing speaking, Yang Ling's eyes flashed with a hint of essence, and he pointed to a place on the map, with a calm and killing aura between his gestures.

At this time, Yang Ling turned his head and glanced at everyone, but saw that everyone just had an inexplicable smile on their faces, and Yue Fei, Tang Huai, including Lao Cheng's Lei Yuanwen and others all had their cheeks twitching, just wanting to laugh, and endured it very hard, Yang Ling couldn't help but be a little annoyed and said: "At the moment of the great enemy, you still have the heart to laugh?" ”

At this time, Luo Yanqing whispered forward to Yang Ling: "Erlang, the place you are referring to is not Jinsha River but Yishui. ”

Everyone's hearts sank, it's over, this battle has nothing to fight, the person in charge can't even read the map, and this battle is more auspicious......

Yang Ling looked at the place where his finger was, and it was still a mush, but it was still like this, and he still said, "You just know where it is." ”

"The generals will obey!"

Everyone smiled, and stood with their swords brushed, Yang Ling saw this, and then said, "Yue Fei, Luo Yanqing listened to the order, and I will give you two hundred foot soldiers and one hundred cavalry, and deploy defense on the south bank of the Jinsha River, and you must press the Liao people on the river bank, and only when the army on my rear road is about to arrive can the enemy army cross the river." ”

"The last general obeys!" The two of them clasped their fists together.

Yang Ling said again, "Commander Lei, you took the two hundred Baiqi soldiers all dressed in heavy armor, and then rushed to the Baigou River with a certain person, so that Liaogou could thoroughly see the power of the Baiqi soldiers' heavy cavalry. ”

"Obey!"

After some arrangement, everyone was sent, and the fish rushed out, but it was running, Yang Ling looked back at the somewhat yellowed map again, and finally couldn't find where the Jinsha River was, his teeth were itching, and he couldn't wait to crumple the map into a ball and swallow it in one gulp.

……

The whole camp began to move after Yang Ling gave the military order, Yue Fei's department, with two hundred foot soldiers and one hundred white soldiers heavy cavalry changed from the light cavalry, although the number is small, but it has been able to temporarily stabilize the Liao people can not easily cross the river, not long after, Luo Yanqing and Yue Fei led the soldiers and horses out of the camp.

A group of people lined up neatly, there were always few people and horses, the horse army was in front, the infantry army was behind, the action was quite rapid, and it disappeared into the horizon after a while, and at this time, Yang Ling took the white soldiers out of the camp gate, a war horse wrapped in iron armor, the soldiers on the horse showed the majesty of the heavy cavalry at this time, everyone's body was tightly fitted, and it seemed to be dazzling under the sunlight.

This turtle shell, I don't know how much strength it takes to break it, Yang Ling's side, followed by Yan Shichen, Tang Huai, in front of Lei Yuanwen, Wang Gui and Zhang Xian, this time it can be said that the nest is dispatched, and there are more than a dozen people left in the entire camp, plus one Ma Xiaoying.

Yang Ling didn't let Ma Xiaoying go out with the army here, this time it was a victory or a defeat, to be honest, he himself was not sure, after all, so far, they didn't know how many people and horses were following the back of the Liao.

The white soldiers were heavily armoured, with a pair of eyeballs and nostrils up and down their bodies, hundreds of catties were all pressed on the war horse, and they didn't dare to go fast, the two teams of Yue Fei and Yang Ling before and after were getting farther and farther away, and they slowly chased after them, expecting that Yue Fei could also gain a foothold in the Jinsha River, and wait until he arrived.

Yue Fei and Luo Yanqing also have their own subordinates in front, Yue Fei led the infantry army, Luo Yanqing led the cavalry, some of the light cavalry of Luo Yanqing's department were newly trained, and some were rebuilt by the heavy cavalry of Baiji, all the way forward, the soldiers were noble and fast, even if it was the day of eating, the cavalry was also on the horse to deal with dry food and water, so the speed of the march made both of them feel relieved, presumably they could arrive before the Liao!
