Chapter 135: Pro-Recruitment
The Yang official family, who had just ascended the throne of the god of love, was going to succeed the Zhao official family and was going to drive the royal expedition. It seems that the emperors of the Central Plains are keen to personally lead the troops and wave the Northern Expedition, and Tokyo Bianliang is lively again, and there is a busy hustle and bustle of preparing for war everywhere.
Zhao Kuangyin sealed the pile for ten years, the thickness of the savings is really extraordinary, the previous Zhao Guangyi's Northern Expedition, with lightning tactics, the advance is fast, the defeat is also fast, the soldiers and horses lost nearly one-third, the loss of the grain and straw account is not large, so the savings are enough to support the launch of a national xìng war, inside and outside the city of Tokyo, the south to the north and the north are full of chariots and horses, and you can see the mighty and fierce army coming and going, or it is the brigade servant who drives the donkey and horse to transport the grain.
Different from the past, when the infantry of the brigade came and went in a hurry, there would often be thousands of horses for a team of cavalry troopers to trample on the iron hooves, a gust of wind swept past them, the original configuration of the Song army did not have such a large number of cavalry, this is Yang Hao's Western Xia soldiers, the original Song army infantry was invincible in the world, far to attack the city of Youzhou, killing the Liao State six road reinforcements lost their armor, but the mobility was insufficient, unable to effectively kill the enemy's defeated soldiers, expand the results; Unable to grasp the initiative of the battle situation, the enemy will be saved, and lead the enemy by the nose.
Now that so many well-trained cavalry have suddenly been added, our superior enemy does not have, and we also have the enemy's superiority, and the result of the Northern Expedition is really exciting, although it has just gone through a big defeat, at least the scholars and scholars are quite optimistic about this battle.
Of course, if this battle is still lost, I am afraid that the heaviest blow to the Central Plains will not be material, but psychological, and from then on, the people of the Central Plains will suffer from Liaophobia, and for a long time, I am afraid that they will not have the courage to use troops against the Northern Dynasties again.
On the Bianhe River, it is also a boat that goes back and forth day and night, and the four gangs of Bianhe disappeared under the severe blow of Zhao Guangyi, and set up a harmonious transportation team subordinate to the official, and the Tang family did not hesitate to fully support it, and invested a large number of newly built warships and transport ships, which were enough to ensure the transportation of grain from the south to the north and the transportation of various burdens of the army.
A small boat is quietly moored on the Bianhe River, and the lights of the golden smile building reflect the gold and silver flowing on the river, and it is a blur.
The corner door of the backyard of Qianjin Yixiao opened and a few people came out, two servants in front of them who held the lamp, and the middle three looked slender and slender, which should be Nian Shao's woman. There were scattered snowflakes in the sky, and a woman walking next to her held up an oil-paper umbrella in time and held it above the head of the young woman in the middle with a graceful figure and a cloak on her shoulders.
Several people boarded the boat, and with a penny of the penny, the tail swayed gently, and left the shore in a hurry, swinging gently into the distance.
The woman under the umbrella stood on the bow of the boat, looking back at the brightly lit fairy like a fairyland on earth, staring at it for a long time, and then turning her head again to look in the direction of the palace.
After staring at it for a long time, the jade man on the bow of the boat sighed faintly and lowered his head gloomily.
The snowflakes fluttered sporadically, gently brushing on the face, it was a warm coolness, but there was no trace on the ground.
The boat swayed and quietly headed south......
The iron cavalry rolled, and the army heading north was endless, day and night, and at this moment it was a group of men and horses, there were more than 5,000 people, all of them were cavalry, each with bright armor, swords and guns shining, looking at the equipment, compared with the ordinary team, it was still three points better.
Although the number of this army is huge, but it is only a vanguard force, because they have not long passed, it is a mixed brigade of infantry and horses, and it is late at night, and the army is always in the open, and when it is dawn, the flat-headed people who have been squatting at home for a night open the door, and look out with courage, only to see that the team that has been marching since late at night has not yet finished, and when the probe looks ahead, it is a team of foot soldiers, without armor, and there are no weapons in their hands, it seems really strange, behind them, It was an ox cart, and I didn't know what it was carrying.
Followed by a group of cavalry, also unarmoured, dressed in cloth robes, "The horses under the crotch are all tall and strong, far higher than the Central Plains war horses, more than a head taller than the Central Plains war horses, walking slowly and leisurely, as if they are not going to fight, but to go to the green to enjoy chūn, behind them, the same ox carts, full of loads, and covered with coarse kudzu cloth and straw curtains, I don't know what it is.
These people only felt a little strange, but they didn't know that these two teams of old soldiers were Yang Hao's famous heavy armored iron cavalry and Mo Dao team in the Western Regions, and the iron forest army of the Liao State was the same as the historical Xixia Iron Harrier and the Jin State Iron Futu Heavy Cavalry, Yang Hao was determined to go on the Northern Expedition, how could he not bring this big killing weapon that was better than them.
As soon as he ascended the throne, he drove the imperial expedition in person, and he ascended the throne in a Zen way, so he dared to leave the capital behind, which showed Yang Hao's confidence in controlling the Great Song Empire, and also let the subjects of the world see his courage.
Zhao Pu and Lu Duoxun were originally the prime ministers of the Song State, and they were no more familiar with the ruling institutions and bureaucrats of the empire, and any one of them staying was enough to ensure the normal operation of this great empire, let alone two. Maybe there was intrigue and power between them in the past, but at least now, they will definitely work together to keep this empire running well.
At the beginning of the empire, there were inevitably some vacant official positions, the two old prime ministers were reinstated, and many old ministers who were implicated and dismissed from office by them would also be reinstated, these people were reinstated in the hands of Yang Hao, and they would naturally serve Yang Hao as the king, but it was inevitable
and to be close to the grace of the retribution.
Yang Hao made a big manager, handed over the empire to their old prime minister, and gave it a share of trust, just in one move, the heart of the huge bureaucratic system of the entire empire from top to bottom was settled, and the power of the middle and lower class officials and local officials of the revival dynasty was delegated to them, on the one hand, it could stabilize and restore the japonica order of the Song State as quickly as possible, and on the other hand, it also allowed the two prime ministers to inevitably re-establish factions.
Yang Hao has been on the throne for a long time, and he has begun to unconsciously move the emperor's mind. As the so-called no faction in the party, there are all kinds of strange things, delusional that everyone is for the public, all selfless thoughts, and the ministers of the whole world are directly loyal to the emperor regardless of their ranks, regardless of their ranks, and that kind of naïve and ridiculous idea is at least not Yang Hao. has been the leader for so long, he has gradually tasted the taste, there is no faction, it is impossible, there are factions, it is short-term negative, long-term positive. If it continues to operate like this, Zhao and Lu, the two bigwigs of the Song Kingdom who are sympathetic to each other, will be more attached to him.
Ding Chengzong stayed in Bianliang, and his main responsibility was to pacify Bashu and recruit Wang Xiaobo's righteous army, and the only other role was to make Zhao Pu and Lu Duoxun jealous and work diligently.
Li Jilong had already pledged his allegiance to Yang Hao, although his performance was a little later than that of many officials who were looking forward to the wind.
The court has changed, the two prime ministers of the previous dynasty have submitted to Yang Hao, and Zhao Yuanzuo has made a clear edict to the world
Abdicated the throne, the enemy of the Northern Dynasty and Chen soldiers on the side, looking at Li Jilong's position
Although he has a heavy army, he is really embarrassed.
Soon after the news of the Tokyo Chan Rang came, he received Yang Hao's holy decree to recount his unusual performance when the Song army retreated from the Liao State, praised him, and promoted him to the crown prince Shaobao, so that he continued to lock the border passes, wait for the imperial army, and launch a counterattack together.
Immediately afterwards, Cao Bin, Pan Mei and the private messages of friends in the army were also sent to his desk one by one, and then the Li family's cronies and family members rushed to the dust, and learned that the sister slave was still the queen mother, and the honor of the Li family was not weakened at all, even if it was the incompetent nephew emperor, after abdicating the throne, he also named a pickaxe king, generally speaking, it is enough for Emperor Xun to be crowned a duke, and it is really a special grace to be crowned a king.
All of the above, Li Jilong is also a wise person, why don't you know how to do it?
Do you want to do the opposite? Where can he go against it, unless he defects to the Northern Dynasty. What's more, although he didn't know that Cao Bin Pan Mei sent him a letter to persuade him to obey at the same time, he had already known his henchmen and generals, once he Li Jilong had different aspirations, he would be killed, but he knew that he had just become a commander of one side, and he had no foundation in the army.
At this time, Li Jilong's face enemy was Yelu Huge's main force, and the pressure he was under was really not small.
Yang Jie's personal expedition will soon arrive, Cao Bin led Luo Kedi and other Song generals, as well as Tuoba Haofeng, Zhang Chongwei, Ai Yihai three Western Xia generals rushed to Yanmen Pass, Yang Hao personally marched, with Yang Jiye, Tong Yu, Li Huating and other cavalry teams and Pan Mei as the commander of the Song Forbidden Army.
Yang Hao vaguely remembered that in history, Yang Jiye took the initiative to send troops to lure the enemy in the first battle of Yanmen Pass, and as a result, he ate the ambush of the Liao soldiers and sent his life, and Pan Mei, who was the commander-in-chief, did not wait for Yang Jiye, who came to meet at the appointed time, so he ordered to withdraw from the army.
Yang Hao didn't want the two to repeat the mistakes of the past, when it came to the style of using soldiers to build steadily, who could match Cao Bin, so he sent Cao Bin to Yanmen Pass, and he personally took these two generals to kill Dongcheng.
The Song State did have some trouble at this time, and some rumors of the previous rìzi were rumored that the soldiers and horses of the Jiaozhi State were frequently transferred, and now it has been confirmed, and the hand is updated! Due to the turbulent political situation in the Song State, Jiaozhi thought that the prestige of the Celestial Empire was no longer there, so he suddenly announced that he would no longer recognize himself as a vassal of the Song State. Yang Hao ignored them, and the slight movement of the toes was just a disease of ringworm scabies in his opinion, and the soldiers and horses of the Northern Dynasty were the big trouble, so put them aside first, solve the north, and then clean them up.
The Liao side now seems to be a steaming image, first a complete victory, killing the Song 300,000 army fell into the water, even the emperor of the Song Dynasty who drove the expedition died on the way to escape, the news came, the whole country of the Great Liao was excited, rejoicing.
The Han people in the sixteen states of Youyun also created some poems and songs, slang tunes, and mocked the Song army for coming with a surging momentum and running away with their heads in their arms.
The people of the Han Dynasty in the Northern Dynasties have been living there for many years, and the common people, who give them a stable life and let their wives live in peace, they will support whom, what Yidi's arguments and national concepts, and they can't eat as food, let alone bring them any benefits, they don't care if the emperor is Zhao or surnamed Yelu, maybe some scholars will say what their hometown Yueming said when they chant the wind and make the moon, but if they want to throw their heads and spill their blood, they can't find a few people, and now the Northern Dynasty is not bad for them, politically enlightened, the status of the Han people is also gradually improving, the same imperial examination, the same entry into the court as an official, the law also strictly prohibits all kinds of bad habits that disdain the Han people, what are they not satisfied with?
The great victory of the Liao State, Xiao Xuan immediately rewarded according to the merits, and punished if there was a fault, the rewards and punishments were clear, and the means were sharp, and then he took advantage of the victory to pursue, and personally took the young emperor to sit in Nanjing Youzhou, supervise the money and grain, and the former enemy handed over to the greater than Yue
Yelu Hugo put on a posture of avowed revenge for the invasion of the Song people, and even went south in a big way, quite a bit of the lord, the virtuous and the loyal and united style.
As for Shangjing, after several years of governance and bloody purges, and when the Liao State won a great victory and the prestige of Huangxuan suddenly rose, she couldn't imagine what else would happen. What's the problem? Haven't you killed enough people in recent years? Who still has the guts to still take risks? All of her jīng power was put in front.
The previous Yelu Hugo is also invigorating, going all out, the big husband has made meritorious achievements and is shining in history, how can he not seize this opportunity?
Yelu Hugo dispatched troops, [X" advanced step by step with the strategy of encroachment, [X" fought steadily, [X" At the same time, [S" drew Jīng Rui from the Guards, Hanluduo Army and Tielin Army, and [W" formed a field main force of 80,000 people, [. As the most sharp force to destroy the combat power of the Song army. [n" Li Jilong retreated to Dingzhou, [e] divided troops to block the fortress everywhere, [t" only more than 100,000 horses stationed in Dingzhou, most of them were foot soldiers, and there was also a cavalry, and the armor was better than the Tielin Army of Liao, but there were too few horses on the Song side, and this key equipment, regarded as the cavalry team of the main battle corps, was only 1,000 people when it was full.
Li Jilong has been looking for an opportunity to counterattack, after learning the news of Yang Hao's personal expedition, in terms of tactics he gave up the attack, entered a comprehensive defense, and waited for the main force of the Song army led by Yang Hao, but strategically, which position to abandon, which position to defend, and which position to capture, are all well thought out, and it seems that there is no order, in fact, everything is done to prepare for the counterattack.
His prestige is not based on victory, but on the time of defeat, a big defeat, the Song army completely collapsed, completely defeated and fled, only he and Luo Ke's enemy soldiers and horses remained unchaotic, but also used the terrain to engage in ambushes, covering the retreat of large groups of men and horses, avoiding greater casualties, so as to become famous in a battle.
But then Liu Ting let Zhongji be surrounded, but he "saw death and did not save", but decisively retreated, Liu Ting let the bloody fight, and finally only led dozens of horsemen to escape the sky, and immediately went to the table to impeach in anger, although he defended himself, soon there were fleeing soldiers who returned one after another, which also confirmed that Yelu Xiuge was indeed using Liu Tingrang as a bait, intending to lead him in, and got the understanding of General Liu, but Li Jilong was still very uncomfortable in his heart.
He hoped to have a chance to fight a big victory, and defeat Jeruxiugo fiercely
Enmity.
Since Bianliang sent troops, Yang Hao arrived one step earlier than Cao Bin, who rushed to Yanmen Pass, and led the army to camp in Anguo County, and then ordered Li Jilong, who was stationed in Dingzhou, to meet and discuss major matters. Li Jilong arranged the defense of Dingzhou, only led a few dozen personal soldiers, and hurried to Anguo County to meet the new emperor temporarily.
When he arrived at the camp of the station, he saw the banners waving and waving, the ten-mile company camp, the army was vast, boundless, Li Jilong couldn't help but feel a great boost, especially when he saw that the camp was full of strong horses, and the neighing of the horses came and went, connecting into a piece, and he was even more hot to see. It is a pity that he is respected as an uncle of the country, and he is in charge of the border pass, and his hands are full of calculations, and the cavalry is only a thousand-man regiment, and now the ten thousand horses in the camp are neighing, how spectacular it is. With Hexi Longyou, the dilemma of the imperial court without horses was solved, and there was no longer any need to be subject to the Northern Dynasty on the issue of war horses.
The first time he saw Yang Hao, Li Jilong was not without apprehension in his heart, after all, he did not show his allegiance for the first time, and he had the identity of an uncle of the Xun Empire, and he didn't know what kind of attitude this official had towards him, but Yang Hao's attitude immediately dispelled his doubts, although Yang Hao did not come out to greet him, but when he saw his attitude and haze, he was even more reassuring, just now he saw the power of Yang Hao's army, and saw Pan Mei present, Li Jilong did not think that this was Yang Hao's delaying plan to change the general Xi Shi in battle.
He is in Dingzhou, there are only more than 10,000 people in total, and there are even fewer of his henchmen, and Yang Hao has such a huge army, there is no need to scruple about changing generals in battle.
Even if you have this scruple, it depends on who you take over, if you want to clean him up, you just have to push Pan Mei up, just by virtue of Pan Mei's prestige and power in the army for many years, the Yukong Border Pass Forbidden Army is definitely more powerful than him, and it will not demoralize the three armies.
Seeing that Yang Hao's attitude is sincere, and there are many examples of serving the current dynasty as a relative of the former dynasty since the fifth generation, Li Jilong's worries are gone, and his hands are updated! Li Jilong told the situation of the former enemy one by one, such as a number of treasures, and even the geographical situation of a small ridge and a small stream, which can be said to be exactly the same.
After introducing the situation of the former enemy, Li Jilong said: "Official, the Liao people have always relied on their cavalry to be fierce, coming and going like flying, and the Han people who deceived us were slow to step in armor, forcing us to resist the enemy with formations. Jinchen entered the camp and saw that there were countless war horses in our army, all of which were divine horses, so the offensive and defensive situation was easy. The minister was willing to be the vanguard and defeated the Northern Dynasty with a magnificent army. ”
After Yang Hao heard him introduce the situation of the former enemy, he had been frowning and pondering, listening to him ask for battle, Wei Hui shook his head, and said in confusion: "Qing family, listening to what you just said about the enemy's movements, it has been advancing slowly step by step, even before and after I made a move towards Xingzen a few days ago, there was no other movement?" ”
Speaking of Chan Rang, Yang Hao was calm, but Li Jilong was a little uncomfortable, he nodded slightly embarrassed, and said, "That's right." ”
A strange look flashed across Yang Hao's face, and he muttered, "Could it be ...... The Central Plains has changed, and the Northern Dynasties still don't know about it? ”
As soon as these words came out, Yang Jiye and Pan Meiqi were moved, and after Li Jilong was slightly stunned, he also came to his senses, and his eyes couldn't help but burst out with two divine lights: "Opportunity, it seems to have come!" (!)
