Volume 3 Mending the Cracks in the Sky Chapter 23 Thousand Riders Roll Hiraoka (10)
In the large wasteland on the side of the East Jiming Station in Junjun County, Anli Junjun County, Hebei West Road, bonfires are shining. Hundreds of soldiers of the Yongning Army were surrounding the bonfire, suffering from the cold wind in the spring night.
, Since the news of the sudden arrival of military horses from the north breaking the border, in the past four or five days, the Yongning army has been tossed a lot.
Originally, the Yongning army marched south, it was really set off, and finally arrived in Weizhou from Cizhou Xiangzhou, and was originally going to board the ship in Liyangjin and go against the current to the left of Bianliang. Now there are no boats, so we have to use small boats to ferry. On the south bank of the Yellow River, then east to Bianliang.
Although the Xijing side detained the big ships on the Yellow River and left, they pitted the Yongning army. However, this land route is more than 900 miles, there are states, counties, cities and towns along the way, and the roads are very wide and flat, so it is not too hard to travel. Although the Yongning army did not have the eagerness to fight for merit as Yao Guxi's army, it was so casual, two journeys of sixty miles a day, and it was enough to reach the left side of Bianliang on the 15th, and was dispatched by the central princes.
The news that a large army from the north broke through the border came from Zhending Mansion, which made the Yongning army completely start to be busy.
The north side broke through the border, and the most likely thing is that the Jurchen East Road army is going south! Now the Western Route Army's Zonghan Department is fighting in full swing with the Shenwu Victorious Army in the land of Yunnei. It is not impossible for the Eastern Route Army to take advantage of it and move south.
Compared to the Bianliang Dynasty Dispute, this is a bigger thing!
Wang Yu Ma Kuo can still distinguish the importance of this. In the Bianliang Dynasty, there was no Yongning Army on this road, and there was also the Western Army to help. And when such news reaches Bianliang, it is difficult to say whether Xiao Yan and the princes of the court will continue to fight. Now the hinterland of the Great Song Dynasty is extremely empty, and the Jurchens are deep, and they can even reach the city of Bianliang. When the time comes, it will be under the nest. There are no eggs!
This time. As a general of the Great Song Dynasty, he naturally has the responsibility to defend the land. Even Yuwen was in the void, and he didn't say a word.
Wang Yu sent a messenger to Bianliang to deliver the message, and on the other hand, he sent a cavalry to Hebei West Road, Hebei East Road and various counties and counties, while warning and calling the forbidden troops stationed everywhere. Although the forbidden army is stationed on the roads of Hebei, it is so sparse that it can't even be mentioned. But this time. A little more strength is as strong as a point!
Wang Yu Ma Kuanyu Wenxu Center knew that if the Jurchen East Road army broke through the border, with the weak strength of the Yongning Army, the Hebei Zhulu was almost undefended. No matter how he was born, he couldn't stop the Jurchen army that destroyed the Liao State.
At that time, it was just a battle to the death. Dragged the Jurchen Tartars to the north of the Yellow River. I hope that the imperial court can organize a large army to deploy defenses along the Yellow River to prevent the Jurchen Tartars from penetrating. At that time, there was no hatred in death.
The princes of the DPRK and the central government, what kind of strength are they fighting at this time. Such a situation. Even if Xiao Yan is in charge of Xifu for a while, he will train soldiers and horses. One road was originally deployed to Hedong, and then there was one road to the Yongning Army to defend Hebei. With the Western Army as the apse behind it, it can at least fight with the Jurchen Tartars. Wait for the Jurchen Tartars to be blocked from the border of the Great Song Dynasty, and then be busy shooting black bricks and dragging their feet, so you can't wait?
The power position in the central court, and the territory of the Han family fell into the hands of Hu Lu, and the lives were devastated. Which one is important? At least Xiao Yan also used the most important strength under his command to fight to the death with the Jurchen Tartars in Hedong!
After the dispatch was dispatched, the Yongning army turned around and headed north, preparing to return to Zhending, striving to hold off the two main roads from Zhending to the south. One is from Zhaozhou, from Xingzhou, Cizhou, through Xiangzhou to Weizhou, Liyangjin, to cross the river. One is to turn southeast from Zhendingfu, enter Jizhou on Hebei East Road, turn back to Hebei West Road to Zhaozhou, go south into Hebei East Road Damingfu, turn southwest and go straight back to Hebei West Road Anli Army, or cross the Yellow River from Liyangjin.
The Zhending Mansion is a place that extends in all directions, and this was the case in the Song Dynasty. The west controls the Taihang passage into the east of the river, and the north-south passage is an important place. It protects the famous cities of Hebei such as the Daimyo Mansion in the south. Therefore, the Liao army set up the logistics center here, and Tong Guan Xuanshuai Xingyuan was also stationed here. In later generations, Zhendingfu was the intersection of several important railway trunk lines, and it was the core hub of Hebei. During the battle between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, the situation in North China was reversed, not in the final Pingjin Campaign, but in the capture of Shimen.
As long as the Yongning army can arrive in time, there is still a possibility of dragging the Jurchen border breaking army in Zhending Mansion!
The Jurchen Tartars have never set foot in the Central Plains, and they are not familiar with geography. Didn't it go south so quickly?
As a result, it was only a day to turn around, and the Zhending Mansion Chuanqi had already rushed in again. The brigade broke the border and the military horses, and they had already swept past Zhending Mansion and went south on the road to the east!
At this time, it will be in vain to rush back to Zhending. The Yongning army was ready to turn around and leave the official road and march eastward. Or in Jizhou, or in Zhaozhou, or even at the Daimyo's Mansion to break through the border army brigade.
Then whenever the Yongning Army had a plan, it often received urgent messages. This is the foundation of the Zhending Mansion Yongning Army after all, although the strength is weak, it does not dare to invite the army that suddenly breaks through the border. But a group of people is far behind, and they still dare. He couldn't stop sending out the Chuancai Express to inform the Yongning Army, which was spinning around like a headless fly, of the latest movements.
This border-breaking military horse has already passed through Jizhou, through Zhaozhou, through the Daimyo Mansion, and has gone straight to the direction of Liyangjin in Weizhou! In just four or five days, this border-breaking army has gone south for more than 500 miles! Even if the Yongning Army didn't go back and forth for this delayed time, it couldn't catch up with this military horse that was speeding south!
And there is even a news that makes the Yongning Army drop their jaws in shock, this border-breaking army is under the banner of the Shenwu Ever-Winning Army! After passing through the prefectures and counties, Qiu did not commit any crimes, and it was purely a cavalry army, and the scale covered the sky and the sun. It's just that he said that he was ordered by King Yan to enter Bianliang and prepare to be incorporated into the army of King Yan and Hedong Jurchen for a decisive battle!
Along the way, the counties were suspicious. I didn't have the courage to fight this army. They could only close their doors and watch the army cross the border. The local officials also vaguely understood that the Bianliang Dynasty was fighting, and when it was the white-hot season, King Yan didn't know where to conjure up a military horse to enter the guard. At this time, everyone is just waiting for the thunder with bated breath.
And Wang Yu and the others finally got the exact news, but they only tacitly agreed. just threw away the infantry army, only led more than a thousand horse troops, and desperately rushed to Liyangjin.
Xiao Yan suddenly highlighted such a hand, and the Yongning Army was immediately torn apart. Almost immediately after participating in the Korean War, it was abolished. Now that this is the case, let's do our last duty and see if we can do it in Liyangjin. Stop this army!
At least look at it. This Xiao Yan is in the north. What kind of military horses are like when they operate quietly!
At this moment, Wang Yu, Ma Kuo and others, if Xiao Yan is in person, they have to ask, Xiao Yan, what do you want to do!
Rao is at this moment, Wang Yu and Ma Kuan are all light horses, but in the past few days, they have been pulling back and forth, and they are colliding with things on the land of Hebei West Road. This time. Also exhausted.
The Yongning Army was a broken settlement from the defeat of the Huanqing Army, and all the family funds were lost. is not as rich as Xijun and Xiao Yan. Even if it is a cavalry, it will stop the crotch and get off the horse. Many of them are still mixed together. Pulling back and forth like this, the horse is more squeamish than a human. Not only could the infantry not keep up, but even the light cavalry brigade also lost most of it. Now with Wang Yu and a few people holding on, there are only four or five hundred horses.
Today, I finally struggled to the side of Jun County, and Jun County had already closed the city gates, and even the people in the pavilion were empty. These four or five hundred horsemen can only settle down at the pavilion post. The only thing that can't live is the campfire in the wilderness.
In such a situation, it can be seen that the border-breaking army under the banner of the Shenwu Ever-Victorious Army has already appeared near Jun County. I'm afraid it's a step too late. Even if it's not too late, I can arrive in Liyangjin one step earlier tomorrow. At the moment, these four or five hundred horsemen are exhausted, and the demoralized military horses can fight?
Although the military information was delivered in a hurry, although it was vague and uncertain, in their mouths, this military horse that broke the border and went south under the banner of the Shenwu Changsheng Army, and there was a trend of thousands of horses rolling Pinggang!
Under such a low military heart, since Wang Yu surrendered, he had no interest in even driving ten miles to call the gate of Jun County, but he just carried dry food with him and worked the side of this pavilion. As far as the eye can see, in the night sky, the lights on the wall of Jun County are flickering. But the officials and people in the city who were very nervous were on duty on the city wall.
On the side of the bonfire, those Yongning Army cavalry sergeants were soaking in hot water, softening the pancakes, and eating a few bites indiscriminately. Just resting in all directions. The sergeants below, the soldiers followed the generals, there was nothing to think about, they worked extremely hard, wrapped their cloaks around their bodies, and shouted loudly around the campfire.
However, the generals at all levels who led the troops were more thoughtful, and they gathered in groups of three or five, just discussing in a low voice. Because they were afraid that they would say something unpleasant in the pavilion because the general would hear it, they were far away from the edge of this temporary camp, and they did not even dare to raise a bonfire. Only black silhouettes are reflected.
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦ Straight lady thief, it turns out that Yan Wang has long been operating in Yan Land, no wonder he got a Yan Zi Wang that day. In this way, the strange soldiers are prominent, and our Yongning army will be torn to pieces at once, and the advance and retreat will be lost. It's really ............"
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦ I just think it's strange, how could King Yan run such a large army of horses in Yandi, a ruined place? β
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦ I'm with you, this place, Yandi, although it is a sparse fight. But the remnants of strong soldiers after the war abound. And the military funds left by the Song and Liao families are piled up. In addition, if you can give birth to horses, are you afraid that tens of thousands of troops will not be able to pull out? It's the cost of food, and there are still fewer merchants who come and go to Yandi these days to sell horses and furs in Beizhu? King Yan must not be in Bianliang and also support in the center. Are you afraid that you won't be able to raise this team? Our officials of the Great Song Dynasty went to Yizhou to the last minute, and then looked north, and then they lost the courage of this bird. I have to shout for more than 100 years to recover Yanyun! Back then, King Yan was entrenched in Danzhou for a long time, and naturally left a foundation, where he collected Yan Di and Liaodong horses, who can know? β
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦ This time, the army and horses of Yanwang Yandi went south, and with the current ability of Hebei, he could naturally only defend himself according to the city. Even if he didn't use the banner of King Yan, who would dare to invite him? After crossing the Yellow River, it is not far from Bianliang! But I don't know if the princes of Bianliang can react, and I don't know if the Western Army will arrive first, or whether the people of King Yan will arrive first? In any case, there must always be a result, and it will save the court from such an immortal hardship! β
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦ If the Western Army arrives first, it will control the center of the imperial court. Where can I still take care of Hebei? That is to move the Great Song family belongings to the fourth road in Kansai. If our Yongning Army is still in Hebei, then we will have fun. According to my meaning, it is not as good as King Yan to win, and King Yan's command is made up of people from all over the place, and I don't see King Yan treating him anywhere. And King Yan can really hold the power alone, and the life of our military ministers can be better............"
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦ Let's see, whether it is the king of Yan or the princes of the court. It's better to decide an outcome sooner rather than later. Thoughts can always turn to state affairs. The most feared thing is that the two families will not be able to hold each other, and the fight will be sparse, and the local counties will be centrifugal. Who else is in charge of the defense of the Northlands? King Yan's military horse, said that he would go south, and he was competing for the first place everywhere. All the way to the bank of the Yellow River. If it weren't for the Yanwang military horse. Rather, it was the more powerful Jurchen Tartars. How much better could that be? But I beg all parties in the DPRK and China to open their eyes and see the emptiness of Hebei! β
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦ To tell the truth, the princes of the court and the central government, I feel that I can't count on it. Now in Hedong and Tatar, it is the military horses under the command of King Yan! It's that the situation in Bianliang has fluctuated to such a point, I don't believe that King Yan didn't notice the danger, since we left the army, I didn't hear that King Yan drew troops and horses from Hedong to the south, but sent troops to help! It is necessary to reorganize Hebei's defense. It can only be King Yan in power! β
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦ Even if King Yan is in power, I'm afraid it's too late. The Jurchen Tartars in Hedong moved, and the Jurchen Tartars in Hebei could really bear it? I just waited for spring to come after autumn. This is when the Jurchen army in front of Yandi is about to move. β
"In that case, why did King Yan still transfer this army and horse from Yan Land?"
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦ Prisoners, can they just let King Yan wait for death? Xu wanted to dispatch military horses to fight fast and settle the situation as soon as possible. And then return to town? β
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦ I don't know what King Yan can do in Bianliang this time, and he will say bold things from his heart. I am optimistic about King Yan, but I am really not optimistic about those big turbans in the court. We're going to have to think about where we're going sooner............"
The generals talked in a low voice, and naturally they couldn't come up with any results after discussion. is talking hilariously one sentence at a time when one sentence is lower. Several generals suddenly stood up and saluted with panicked expressions.
The crowd turned back. I found that Wang Yu, Ma Kuoyu, and a few people in Wenxu were behind him. A few people around. Not even a personal guard. It seemed that he was also bored at night, so when he came out, he walked and talked a few words, and before he knew it, he walked behind these generals.
All the generals got up and did not dare to raise their heads after saluting. For fear that the main situation would be bad, I heard everyone's nonsense, and then ordered it to be torn off, and the boss was beaten over with a stick.
But he didn't think about it, Wang Yu, who had always been stern, barely squeezed out a smile, and raised his hand to the generals to let them take care of themselves. Then he turned around and went far away with Ma Kuoyu.
The three of them walked away, but the generals still didn't dare to sit down, but just looked at each other weakly.
And after leaving these generals dozens of steps away, Wang Yu sighed: "The road of the Yongning Army is already abandoned. The sudden rise of King Yan's army was really unexpected. Uncle Tongwu, the way of the Western Army, can it come in handy? β
Yuwen pondered for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "King Yan must also have a means to deal with the Western Army, but the students didn't expect it. All the way to the Western Army, the students did not dare to have any extravagant hopes. β
Wang Yu asked again: "What will happen to the situation in Bianliang?" β
Yuwen Xuzhong has repeatedly deduced the changes in the current situation for a long time, Wang Yudong asked, and said slowly: "King Yan is either truncated or delayed outside, so that the Western Army and the Yongning Army must not enter the capital lightly. And let the military horses drawn from their own house catch up with the front. Previously, the Chinese army was lightly released, which was a means to show the enemy weakness. I want to let Bianliang's own family mess up first, and all the forces hostile to King Yan will jump out here! In the chaos, King Yan must have the means to grasp the name of righteousness. Then the Yandi military horses that were transferred, or even the Chinese army that had been dispatched, quickly returned to the division to quell the chaos. Shock Bianliang! It's just that what means are used to grasp the name of righteousness, and the students can't imagine that the means of the Yan King often fly from the sky, if the students can anticipate the opportunity, how can they be in such a situation? β
Wang Yu thought silently for a while, shook his head and said, "But it makes people's heads big, and King Yan is also exhausted." What's the fun of sitting in this position? I only hope that the news of the accident in Hebei will be transmitted to Bianliang as soon as possible, so that the central princes can be prepared. β
Yuwen smiled bitterly and did not speak. Xiao Yan's layout is far-reaching, and his land is vast, how can he not cut off the means of transmitting Hebei news to Bianliang for a while? It's just that these words don't have to be said in vain.
Wang Yu finally sighed again: "I can rush to Liyangjin tomorrow, but I hope it can come in handy." But whatever the situation, this chaos would have ended sooner! King Yan is also the choice of a hero, why can't the Great Song Dynasty tolerate him? β
Yuwen was silent, he didn't know this question himself.
Wang Yu turned to Ma Kuo, who had been silent: "Zichong, why haven't you spoken?" β
Ma Kuo looked into the distance, and only after a while did he say coldly: "No matter what, I always want to meet King Shangyan and ask him what he wants to do." Ask him if he wants to bury the Great Song Dynasty in the hands of the Jurchens in such a struggle for power! β
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Just when the Yongning army had to march forward with four or five hundred light horsemen and rush to Liyangjin to make a final effort, the army's heart was already shaken to the extreme. On the other hand, Cai Jing and others had high hopes for the Western Army. Two days ago, we rushed to Pujindu in the night talk in Junjun County, Yongning.
Where it catches the eye. The Yellow River is surging. Waves roll. However, Pujin Dadu, in the past, the boats and boats anchored one after another, and the sails covered the sun. At this time, the whole ferry is empty!
Not to mention the big ships of the Yellow River carrying military horses, even small boats, there are only a few scattered boats!
The Xihe Army Brigade, together with the scattered men and horses of the Western Army who joined along the way. took out the strength to eat milk and rushed through the Tongguan Road for nearly three hundred miles. It's already tired. It's hard to get up. I hope to get on the boat here, and I will raise all the way down the river to Bianliang.
But Cai Jing promised to do a good job, so what about the ship prepared by Xijing?
Do you still let these military horses of your own family walk hundreds of miles overland and slowly climb towards Bianliang? Even if you arrive, you will rush a hundred miles to the general, and the Xihe Army will be in a hurry, how many miles will you have to hurry? How many generals will this take?
Yao Gu was so angry that his face turned pale, and he just waved his horsewhip fiercely in the air, and scolded angrily: "These big turbans will only lose!" Where's my ship? Where's my ship! β
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Li Yangjin. Since ancient times. It is the north-south traffic channel of the Yellow River. The Yellow River flows gently here, making it easy for boats to come and go. The surrounding plains are open. It is convenient for the movement of large armies.
For more than 1,000 years, it has been a key point of battle. The north bank is called Liyangjin, and the south bank is called Baimajin. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao confronted each other for several years on their respective armies, and finally fought the battle of Guandu, which has been sung endlessly by historians for thousands of years.
Thousands of years later, on the old battlefield here, the remnants of the broken soldiers can still be excavated, so that the literati and scholars for thousands of years can be carefully recognized.
There is a low hill in the west of Liyangjin, and in the distance, Liyangjin is a plain, all in sight. It is rumored that Yuan Shao once set up a tent here to see the military situation of Cao's army on the other side.
At this time, dozens of knights, dusty and haggard, rode up this low mountain where they could see Liyangjin in the distance. Even though they were exhausted and scattered to such a point, several knights who looked like guards were still holding the banner of the Yongning Army.
Under the banner, it is the king who gives them.
Before the sky was clear, Wang Yu and the others set off from the east of Jun County, traveled all the way, and rushed to Liyangjin. Whether the military horses behind can still keep up with it or not, they don't care about it all.
If he could catch up with Xiao Yan's military horses heading south from Yandi, then dozens of horses would be enough to drive boats and boats on the north bank to the south bank and guard across the river. If you can't catch up, can these four or five hundred horsemen be on the same page, and what use can they be?
When the king appeared on this low hill, they looked at the ferry in the distance. I found that the Yellow River was empty, but there were boats and boats, and they were all concentrated on the south bank. The local guard, who knows how to do something, is not stupid enough to be unavoidable.
Just when Wang Yu breathed a sigh of relief, Ma Kuo pointed to the north: "General, look at it." β
The voice was low, as if infinitely depressed.
Wang Yu looked far away and saw the smoke and dust rising in the north of the country. After a while, I saw the crimson flag of the Shenwu Ever-Victorious Army waving forward!
The second military flag of Zhang took the lead, and there were countless banners of various departments in the back. The sound of people shouting and neighing seemed to come from the sky, and in a blink of an eye, it filled this ancient battlefield.
That's a myriad of knights! That's an army in the true sense of the word!
The rolling torrent seems to be endless, and thousands of horses are coming from the flat post!
These knights, all fierce and sharp, were sharpened in the wind and frost swords of the Northland. It's all the men of the Han family in Yandi Hebei! It is this Great Song Dynasty, except for those Kansai Han who border with Western Xia and Tubo and have been fighting against each other for decades, the people of the entire Han family are the most capable of fighting!
Yandi Hanmin fell into the hands of the Liao people for more than 100 years. In the time and space without Xiao Yan, when the Liao State collapsed, the Great Song Dynasty still failed to defeat Yan, so he had to invite the Jurchens to come to Yanjing, and the children of the golden silk in Yandi and several states were all Jurchens. finally cut off the last trace of Yandi Hanmin's hope of returning to the Great Song Dynasty. Even if there is a hundred years of estrangement from the Central Plains, there are also the people of the Great Song Dynasty who regard the people of Yandi as the heads of livestock and cut them off at will. Just to get back a few empty cities.
And these brave men of the Yandi Han family. Since Guo Yaoshi descended to Jurchen. turned into a Jurchen minion. Under the continuous torture of Hulu for more than 100 years, some people finally forgot their ancestors and fought for Hulu until the entire civilization was reduced to a sea of blood. It is really the most tragic scene in history. Zhang Hongfan, who later perished in the Southern Song Dynasty, was born in Yandi Yizhou!
For thousands of years, this mistake is the most!
And the athletes on the edge of the Hebei River, recruited as a dare warrior when they cut down Yan, and used them indiscriminately for the princes of the upper ranks. Heavy casualties. After the war, he was dismissed at will and left in exile. In this way, when the Jurchens destroyed the Song Dynasty, these Hebei athletes also raised their flags one after another, forming an unprecedentedly active Hebei Righteous Army to fight for this Great Song Dynasty that treated them unfairly. It is not too late to know that mistakes can be changed, but the Great Song Dynasty pulled the hind legs of Zong Ze, who gathered these rebels in Tokyo after the destruction and robbery, and forced Zong Ze to cross the river and die. The Southern Song Dynasty court did not hesitate to dismiss these Hebei rebels and forced them to disperse! Except for a small number of lucky people who can join the Great Song Dynasty warp horses. The rest of the hot-blooded men in Hebei can only grow up to be under the rule of Jurchen Hulu.
More than 100 years later. These good men of Hebei turned into the Jurchen feudal nine dukes, and they became the backbone of the late Jurchen army. Fight for the alien race that destroyed and enslaved their home more than a hundred years ago. In the end, he became a northerner under the rule of the Mongols, and went to bully the people of the same clan who were the fourth-class southerners!
At the turn of the two Song Dynasty, several generations of kings, in charge of the princes, how can they redeem the depth of their sins?
But now, these fierce and elite Han warriors are gathered under Xiao Yan's banner! No one will abandon them now!
The Northland boy rode on a tall horse, his armor shining brightly, and his blades were like jungles. Spread out between the sights. Rolling up the smoke and dust, it seems to be connected to the sky. Even though the area spread out by the cavalry army is much larger than that of the infantry army, these cavalry troops are only in sight at the moment, how many thousands?
Moreover, the cavalry of the brigade, protruding from the smoke and dust, rolled southward under the banner of countless Shenwu Victorious Army. There are also endless military horses in the back.
There are banners and established economic armies, batch after batch. In the eyes of a general like Wang Yu, who was so old in battle, he had at least twenty or thirty commands, and as many as five or six thousand horsemen.
These are well-equipped and well-armoured. A powerful cavalry army that can fight in front of the battle!
After these at least five or six thousand cavalry troops, there was still an endless stream of men and horses. They are also cavalry, but the clothes are messy and the equipment is different. Just surging on both flanks of the great army. This is not as good as the command of the warp and horses. Just watch them roar and surge, like waves of the ocean appearing in sight one after another. Compared to those warped cavalry, it is only a lot more, and even far more!
Regardless of asking, it can be known that this military horse is the strength that Xiao Yan has painstakingly gathered in Danzhou. This time to the south, why not ten thousand horses?
Because after all, the operation of Danzhou has not been very long, and there is still a restriction on grain and grass to turn the collection of military horses into an economic army. The Yandi Army, which is really organized and trained as the Shenwu Ever-Victorious Army, is the 28 commanders of the cavalry army, and the regular army has more than 5,700 people.
However, the auxiliaries attached to this regular army were also a large number of knights. The elite can fight the Cheng dΓΉ, not much worse. Just wait for the whole practice, and then add some auxiliary armor blades and equipment baggage, it is also an elite that can go into battle! Not to mention that there are also the Han people who are attached to the military horses of Danzhou in Yandi, and after more than a year of cultivation and recuperation, there is an endless supply of wealth and goods in the south, and some sporadic belongings of the Liao people have been collected, and a large number of military horses can also be provided. Although there are not many powerful troops sent from all over the place, it is also an amazing number when they are gathered together, and it is also the elite who have seen the battle array after several years of fighting! This time, the Danzhou army and horses marched south to stabilize the throne of King Yan.
For Yu Jiang, who is temporarily the right to lead the horses in the south, there is no definite number, and he can only know roughly. At least 20,000 riders up and down! And most of them are two horses and three horses, and such a formation has been overwhelming from the beginning!
Such a large cavalry roared south, needless to say, under the banner of the Shenwu Victorious Army, and the transfer of troops issued by the Xifu was in line with the order, and everything was available. It's just no, with the single weak Cheng dΓΉ of Hebei Wubei, all the counties and counties, in addition to closing their doors, where can they resist a little?
At this moment, the murderous aura rolling between the heavens and the earth is filled with the sound of horses' hooves like thunder, as if it will continue to sound until the end of the world. Countless armors, in the sunlight, are layers of beating light spots. It shines so brightly that you can't open your eyes. In the end. It seems that in front of this army. The Yellow River is rolling, and it has to flow backwards!
On the low mountain, the flag was held and guarded, and the flag was already so soft that it hung down. Dozens of knights only felt that the inside of their throats was dry as if they were on fire. Even the mount under the crotch scared the two of them.
The Yongning Army, who was born in the Western Army, has not seen a big scene. The Western Army fought and dispatched tens of thousands of troops at every turn. But such a powerful cavalry group is rolling forward. But since the Song Dynasty, it has never been heard of or seen!
As far as the eye can see, there are all the high-flying horses of Liaodong and the tigers and wolves of the Northland! It's a torrent of steel that seems unstoppable!
After the collapse of Yandi Jinghua of the Liao Empire, it was no longer the help of the Jurchens, but the foundation of Xiao Yan! I only hate the time and space without Xiao Yan, but Da Song doesn't use his strength to fight!
The smoke and dust covered the sun, and in the end, even the sun in the sky. They have lost their color.
Wang Yu was stunned immediately, and Mu Ran sighed: "King Yan is a masterpiece............ The princes of the court. It's ridiculous. What is the use of the Yongning Army? Even if the Western Army marches at the same time, what use will it come in? I only hope that King Yan, don't kill in Bianliang. If the central authority is lost, it will be the end of the five dynasties and ten kingdoms. Could it be that the land of China is going to start fighting again with internal strife again? That's the Jurchens getting cheap............"
Yuwen Xuzhong has always been calm and demeanor, but at this time, he has lost everything, the muscles on his face twitched, and his Adam's apple couldn't stop rolling. Hearing Wang Yu's words, he came back to his senses a little, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "King Yan is a hero, and his plan is far-reaching." Naturally, there are means to maintain the authority of the center, and my generation only opens his eyes to watch. After this time, if you can get lucky enough to stay disabled, you will wander far away from the rivers and lakes. Pray for King Yan's kindness! β
Ma Kuo is like a sculpture, standing on the back of a horse, looking at the magnificent scene in front of him for a long time.
Such a military formation, such athletes, such a scene. But for a man, how can he not be enthusiastic?
I just ask King Yan to create less evil in the court. Leave some more vitality for the future battlefield against Jurchen!
The three of them stared blankly at the horse for a long time, and at the end, another question came to their minds.
How will this amazingly powerful military horse cross the Yellow River? Such a large army rushed south, apparently without much baggage. I survived these few days by relying on dry food and horse feed. If he can't cross the river, does King Yan want this army to divide his troops in Hebei and plunder? Is this a struggle for the central position, or a place of trouble?
This questioning word has not yet been spoken. One of the guards exclaimed, "West! β
Everyone's eyes suddenly turned to the west. And behold, a fleet of boats had already appeared on the surging river. Also on an astonishing scale, across the river!
The backbone of the fleet is hundreds of large ships on the Yellow River. There are countless boats around. On the big ship first, the banner of the Shenwu Victorious Army is flying high!
Fang Teng's fleet has come, and it is night along the way. After secretly crossing the Yellow River in the Bianliang area at night, he sent troops and horses to disembark from the boat to control the crossing of the river, block the news of the exchange, and detain all the boats. At the same time, he also sent light cavalry to block the road from Hebei to Bianliang and captured the urgent delivery of Hebei's message to Bianliang.
At this time, a fleet of ships that could carry tens of thousands of troops was formed to meet the military horses heading south to Danzhou, and then float boats to the west. Turn to Bianliang! At that time, the Western Army was still in the west of Xijing, gritting its teeth and continuing to rush by land. And the Yongning Army was left north of the Yellow River! In Bianliang City, I didn't know that Xiao Yan had such an army, and he had secretly turned back to Bianliang!
Yu Wenxu sighed in his heart.
In Bianliang City, chaos is already brewing, and they only wait for the arrival of the Western Army and the Yongning Army to join forces and completely smash Xiao Yan's forces. But the Western Army and the Yongning Army will never be able to wait, and this chaos, Xiao Yan is afraid that he will take the initiative to trigger it?
King Yan turned out to be able to suppress Bianliang with a Chinese army henchmen and tie his hands in the court. When this unprecedented terrifying force arrived in Bianliang, what kind of shocking scene was the center of the Great Song Dynasty? All opponents are like clowns jumping off beams in front of such power!
cut off foreign aid, cause civil strife, and then at the last moment, subdue Bianliang with the power of a lion and a rabbit! And all the opponents who jumped out should be eradicated in the name of righteousness!
This game has come and gone, and it seems that King Yan is going to win.
Lose all games, lose all games. All the forces that are gearing up, just waiting for the various forces that finally pounce on King Yan are just chess pieces on the chess game of King Yan.
It's ridiculous that the princes of the court and the middle of the country still don't know it.
But only such heroes can save the decadent situation that has been corrupted for decades, right?
wants to stir up the ruling system of the Great Song Dynasty, which has been consolidated for more than 100 years, as if it is unbreakable. Xiao Yan is just for King Yan, and it is far from enough. After this change, Xiao Yan really passed the harsh test of history. Finally, it can be considered by the world to have a share in this world!
Countless boats and boats came to the sun, and the knights who had arrived at the river to drink horses also saw this qiΔ. On the riverside of the boat, countless athletes under Xiao Yan's command let out a huge cheer in unison. Shockingly, countless war horses also roared, stirring up countless waves on the Yellow River for a while!
At the end of the day, the cheer became two words.
"King Yan! King Yan! King Yan! King Yan! β
On the Baima Ferry on the south bank of the Yellow River, the boatmen who were detained to the south were detained, and dozens of soldiers guarding the ferry. I looked at the qiΔ in front of me in horror and listened to the huge sound surging on the Yellow River. I only feel that this Yellow River is no longer enough to block this huge and unprecedented new force, the military horses on the other side, where do you need boats, as long as the horses gallop, you can cross the surging Yellow River!
Fang Tengzhuo stood on the bow of the boat and looked at the one in front of him. With his temperament, he was also agitated at this time, and he just wanted to lead this strong army and return to Bianliang in one step. Follow King Yan and cleanse the world that already exudes a rancid smell!
In the earth-shattering shout, Fang Tengyou looked around. From a distance, I saw that on the low hill on the west side of the north bank, there seemed to be a little red Song army flag.
It was too far away, and Fang Teng really couldn't see what kind of character he was. But it must also be an old acquaintance from the war against Yan that day. In the meantime, there should be a day of reunion.
Fang Teng raised his hand from afar and saluted over there. Then he turned around and pressed his sword and ordered: "Dock, load the ship, and return to Bianliang!" β
Now and then, when the army turns back to Bianliang and follows King Yan from now on, it will be a new journey!
When the big ship docked, when countless Danzhou soldiers jumped off their mounts, stepped into the water, and jumped jubilantly. Fang Teng finally lost the idle and elegant attitude of Wenchen, who had always been very well controlled. Raise your arms and cheer loudly.
"Yan Wang !!" (To be continued......)
