Chapter 198: War

On the evening of April 24 in the fifth year of Shaoding, the Chinese army tent in the camp of Suizhou. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info "Handsome! Western Front Urgent! Vice Marshal Hua and General Huang's headquarters have already engaged the Mongol army in the area of Hezhong Province! A general who was in charge of sending and receiving war reports hurriedly walked into Gao Huaiyuan's big tent with an urgent report sent from Qin Feng Road, and said to him as soon as he saw Gao Huaiyuan.

Gao Huaiyuan was leaning over the map at this time, marking on the map the location of the arrival of each army and the location of the Jin army shown by the intelligence. ”

The general immediately handed over the report sent by Qin Fenglu to Gao Huaiyuan, Gao Huaiyuan looked down after unfolding it, and after closing the report, a smile appeared on the corner of Gao Huaiyuan's mouth!

"Humph! Hua Yue and Huang Yan did a good job! Wokotai still can't help it in the end! Immediately fly the pigeon to send a message, inform Hua Yue, and ask Hua Yue to immediately dispatch Yue Kun to lead the Lizhou army to raise troops in Xining Prefecture and attack Liangzhou!

The herald ordered Fu Daquan to immediately send troops to start attacking Hejian Mansion, and ordered Yelu Xingge to immediately lead the Agni Army to send troops and enter Baozhou, not asking them to be meritorious, but begging them as long as they can hold back the Mongol army!

The herald ordered Meng Hui to speed up, so as to capture Caizhou within half a month and send troops to Xuzhou!

The herald ordered Li Xiaotian's subordinates to immediately bypass Caizhou, advance to Xuzhou and Junzhou first, and send rangers to the area of Zhengzhou, in order to contain the Jin army west of Henan Mansion!

The herald ordered Zhou Jun to end his rest in Guide Mansion, and immediately use it as a vanguard to attack Bianliang, sweep the surrounding areas of Bianliang first, and don't attack Bianliang first!

Zhao Futang was ordered to capture Caozhou (now Heze) as soon as possible, and then march towards Bianliang. The herald ordered the Xiangyang army to send 5,000 soldiers and horses out of Dengzhou and make a feint in the direction of Junzhou to contain the Jin army so that it could not return to Bianliang from the direction of Tongguan!

Two months! Within two months, in order to basically solve the Jin State, before the end of September at the latest, Meng Hui, Li Xiaotian, Zhao Futang, and Zhou Jun will join forces and surround Bianliang! ”

After Gao Huaiyuan put down the report sent by Hua Yue, he immediately issued a series of orders to the generals. From March 20, Gao Huaiyuan decided to start the Northern Expedition, and now a whole month has passed, and in the past month, the progress of the armies from all walks of life has basically been relatively smooth...

At the beginning of April, Huang Xu captured Tangzhou, on April 12, Meng Hui led the Ezhou army to conquer the Loess Pass, and then on April 19, he basically controlled the entire territory of Guangzhou, and then continued to converge with Huang Xu's department, and on April 19, he marched to Caizhou, and now he is storming Caizhou City, and it is estimated that the city is just around the corner.

On the ninth day of the first month of April, Li Xiaotian led all the armies of Jiankang Mansion to arrive in Chizhou with full men, and then set out from Chizhou, all the way to conquer Jiu'an, Anfeng and other places, and on April 18, he conquered Yingzhou (now Fuyang) controlled by the Jin Army.

Zhou Jun was ordered to send troops at the end of March, along the way to defeat several attacks of the Jin army, arrived at Guide in early April, after ten days of fierce fighting, Guide Fu defenders surrendered, Guide Fu was recovered by Zhou Jun's troops on April 19.

Zhao Futang sent troops from Jinan in early April, entered Liaocheng on the seventh day of April, Liaocheng Jin army guards in early April went out of the city to beg and surrendered, Liaocheng was recovered by Zhao Futang's department, April 13 Zhao Futang set off from Liaocheng again, went straight to Caozhou, but encountered desperate resistance of the Jin army in Caozhou, and the war fell into a stalemate for the time being, but the Jin army was obviously at a disadvantage, and under the bombardment of the Song army's artillery, it is estimated that it will not last long. The Xiangyang army was ordered to march into Dengzhou on the eighth day of April, and Zhang Xu, the general of the Jin State, was lost in Tangzhou and there was no hope of reinforcements, and the city surrendered on April 12, and Dengzhou was recovered by the Song army.

Although the results of the Western Front are not as significant as those of the Eastern Front, the results of the Qin Fengjun on the Western Front are as remarkable, Li Ruohu and Lu Youliang's troops have besieged Yan'an Mansion, and they have not yet received their news, but Gao Huaiyuan believes that Li Ruohu will not let him down, and Yan'an Mansion will definitely be conquered by Li Ruohu and Lu Youliang's Department in the near future...

On April 19, Wokotai finally couldn't bear it anymore and sent 15,000 Mongol troops to attack Huang Yan's headquarters, Hua Yue and Huang Yan commanded their Qin Feng army to defend the danger, and fought fiercely with the Mongol army in the area of Yukou about five miles east of the Song army's camp for two days, and finally repelled the Mongol army, and caused considerable casualties to the Mongol army.

At this point, the battle began to enter the stage of the melee of the three kingdoms.

At this time, Wokotai's initiative to attack the Song army is exactly what Gao Huaiyuan thinks, because from the recent battle situation of the Song army, the pacification of the Central Plains can basically be said to be the overall situation, so the collapse of the Jin army on the Yellow River and the Tongguan line is also a matter of imminence, the Mongols will never sit idly by and watch the Song army take the Central Plains by themselves, and will definitely speed up the attack on the Yellow River line to seek a breakthrough, once the Mongolian army breaks through this line at this time, then the Central Plains melee will become inevitable...

The duel with the Mongol army in the Central Plains is not what Gao Huaiyuan is looking forward to, even if the Song army is equipped with a large number of artillery, but in the plains against the Mongol iron cavalry, it will still not have an advantage, so what he hopes is to occupy the Central Plains as soon as possible, after holding the Yellow River and Tongguan line, while operating the Central Plains, while counterattacking the Mongol army, so as to reduce the losses of the Central Plains as much as possible, and create better conditions for the recovery of Hebei, Shanxi and other places in the future...

So now the Song and Mongolia can be said to be at the right time, and it also happened to give the Song army a pretext, and put the prepared Yue Kun and Fu Daquan into the war against Mongolia, although they do not expect to recover Hebei and Shanxi with only the strength of their two soldiers and horses, but at least they can contain a lot of troops of the Mongolian army and buy more time for the battle of the Central Plains to destroy Jin...

However, there are also many variables in this way, after the Song army enters the Central Plains, the new timing situation in the Central Plains will definitely not stabilize soon, and the old forces of the Jin State will definitely counterattack to a certain extent, and will contain many Song army forces.

Taking this into account, after Gao Huaiyuan arranged the actions of the armies, he immediately arranged for people to continue to transfer troops, transferred the second-line troops that were originally left behind to the front, and took over the recovered areas from all over the front, and at the same time sent people back to Beijing to report the victories of the various battles to the officials of the Beijing Division, and ordered the officials of the Beijing Division to begin to arrange for civilian officials to take up their posts in the newly recovered areas.

All kinds of things must go hand in hand, and there will be big trouble in the future, and there is no problem in attacking cities and conquering places as soldiers, but it is certainly not a good idea to let the generals of the military govern the localities, and these things must be arranged in advance, and when the military captures a place, it will immediately send local officials to take over the local affairs of these places to reassure the people and restore production.

But fortunately, these things are also considered in advance, and the Jingshi side has already selected a group of officials in advance and will be on call at any time, otherwise, it will be too late to hold Buddha's feet temporarily.

So don't look at Gao Huaiyuan sitting in the Suizhou battalion to command the Northern Expedition strategy, but he is not idle at all, all kinds of reports come one after another, all kinds of affairs are complicated to death, and Gao Huaiyuan and a group of generals under his command are a little dizzy.
