Chapter 178: Horseshoe Rush (25)
Yelu Yanxi had never suffered such a blow, seeing that the soldiers were eating seemed to be delicious, he asked the guards of the Chinese army to ask for a little, it turned out to be the rhizome of a plant, put it in the mouth and chew, the spicy and bitter taste made Yelu Yanxi immediately spit out the rhizome, then a guard came over, handed Yelu Yanxi a piece of horse meat, and said: "Your Majesty, eat a little!" ”
Yelu Yanxi chewed on horse meat and really wanted to cry, but only then did he realize how incompetent he was, dragging the whole army to such a field......
……
The march of the old seed department was still before Yang Ling, but tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were moving slowly, how could this speed be fast, and everyone knew that at this moment, the army went north again, and the situation had taken on a new look.
You must know that the recovery of Yanjing is a major event in the 100 years since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, but you don't know who will fall into such a complete achievement!
And the competition between the forces here, undoubtedly depends on the wrestling between the old breed and Tong Guan, the situation is becoming more and more subtle, for no other reason, it is really because the two sides of the battle are basically evenly matched, no one can hide the voice of the other party, anyone can listen to the music straight to the sky, and everyone knows how eager the entire Great Song Dynasty is for this victory!
And it is not yet known who will take the lead in this great achievement of the Northern Expedition!
The 150,000-strong army of the Song Division crossed the Baigou River north again and launched the Northern Expedition, which really made the whole country jubilant, even if it was defeated before, it could not hide the good expectations of the people.
In just a few days, this news was rushed to Zhending Mansion, Hejian Mansion, and Bianliang in Tokyo for 800 miles, arousing the cheers of countless people, and also arousing countless people to sigh, hoping to fight with the soldiers of the former army.
At this time, it is undoubtedly time to make a choice, whether it is an old breed or a child, everyone must have a scale in their hearts, constantly congratulating the official family, and by the way, they will strive for more convenience for the people they support in front of their families.
To say that the previous defeat, for a long period of time, it was very demoralizing, even if the most serious loss was Liu Yanqing's Huanqing army, but the Jingyuan army, Qin Feng's army, and even the Xihe army were all routed with the defeated soldiers and horses in front.
Not to mention anything else, the resentment in the army, naturally soaring to the sky, everyone is listless, disheartened, indignant and indignant, but now, such a decadent Tang Dynasty military situation, for Yang Ling brought several victories swept away, the day's difficult scene is no longer there, even the heavy losses, the Huanqing army soldiers who do not look for the north, are also gearing up, want to be ashamed, a member of the generals, all began to count the soldiers and horses, check their respective grain and grass insertions, every day the march is to send more than ten miles of sentinels, the army went north, straight through Zhuoyi Erzhou.
Hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, tens of thousands of people, suddenly turned up, north of Zhuoyi, south of the Gaoliang River, all Song army sentinels to and fro, every day, is to stand firm, step by step, to ensure that the back road is completely opened, there is no risk.
Originally, all the people in the bureau were waiting for the moment when Yang Ling made a miraculous achievement again, but what they didn't expect was that Yang Ling was still sitting on a cold bench this time, even if he was on the thigh of the old breed father.
Such generals should have been the spearhead of the entire army, carrying Xinsheng's indomitable momentum, approaching the Gaoliang River, a sharp weapon for the Great Song Dynasty, but they never thought that they would be on the tail of the whole army like this, which inevitably made people feel a little chilled, at the beginning the soldiers were still a little complaining, and they complained about the imperial court, but now they are slowly accepting this reality, after all, what they think in their hearts, this war is still fighting without Yang Ling.
Yang Ling's matter has slowly faded away, but in the past few days, under the word of mouth of the soldiers, Yang Ling's reputation is still in the army, one is the admiration of the soldiers, they are the ones who snatched Zhuozhou, and they are the ones who recaptured Yizhou! How can such immortal feats not make people's blood boil, how can these good men who crossed north first not admire in their hearts?
……
More than 100 soldiers, just straightened their backs, standing behind Guo Yaoshi, even Zhen Wuchen also missed half of the horse's body, he seems to be very accustomed to following Guo Yaoshi's horse, how many years, has been like this, behind these armor soldiers, is the long dragon of the Huanqing Army, Guo Yaoshi from Zhuozhou relied on Zhao Liangsi to get out, and also took away nearly two thousand soldiers, in addition to Yue Fei and others to detain the Jinghua, the movable injuries were brought over, and the seriously injured and dying were only left to take care of in Zhuozhou, At this moment, there were only more than 1,000 people following Guo Yaoshi, and the others were filled into the Huanqing Army.
Guo Yaoshi defected to Tong Guan's party, and Tong Guan naturally had to do such things to invite people to buy people's hearts, and what he did was such a thing that suspicious people don't need to use and use people without suspicion, this cake of the Northern Expedition, so to say, he was given a piece.
This is also the reason why this army never looks at them squarely, after all, in their minds, no matter whether Guo Yaoshi has the ability or not, he also took the path of Tong Guan, and he is a little unconvinced, and he, Guo someone, is always blocking the way for some people to be promoted.
Tong Guan's mind is naturally not big, but he has never shown it, to say that he does not have a little guard against Guo Yaoshi is absolutely unbelievable, it can be seen from the arrangement that Liu Guangshi, Yang Keshi, Guo Yaoshi, the three of them will jointly send nearly 5,000 troops, once they fight head-on, they will go straight to Yanjing City.
But the right to speak is in the hands of Liu Guangshi, not to mention anything else, Liu Guangshi's old son Liu Yanqing is in charge of the Huanqing Army, and he is the figure in the front few positions in the Western Army, and Liu Guangshi can be said to be rooted in the seedlings, whether it is Tong Guan or the old seed, it is natural to spend a lot of effort to support, at least for the backward, can not be blindly suppressed.
As for Yang Keshi, it was just Tong Guan's compromise with the way of the planter, so he gave a piece of the pie to Yang Keshi, Yang Keshi is also a straightforward character, and he will not fight for such main duties, although Guo Yaoshi is unwilling, but he is new to the city, and his status is not much worse than Yang Keshi, and he is also waiting for Liu Guangshi's dispatch.
Guo Yaoshi's corporaries, just like a dragon in the mountains and valleys to follow slowly in, for days to eat is full, originally yellow and thin skin, they finally have a trace of ruddy, for the future, can be regarded as a hope, just hope to fight this war well, then is to serve one or two acres of fertile land, safe and stable to eat, this knife on the day, but no one wants to hold a lifetime.
