Chapter 630: The Battle for the Water Dividing Pass (Subscription Requested)
"As far as the current situation is concerned, Li Heng and his 70,000 troops are trapped in Wanyang Mountain on the border of Hunan and Jiangxi, and now they have begun to run out of food. And the Xinjiang River that runs through Jiangxi and Fujian, as well as the southward pass, are in our hands, and in the face of this situation, the Yuan and Mongolian people will not have too many ways to respond. ”
Inside the water dividing pass, Mo Xiaobai spread out a rough map: "Longxing Mansion is almost an empty shell at the moment, although there is a granary, but if you don't rescue Li Heng and don't recapture the water dividing pass, no matter how many materials in the granary are, it's useless." Therefore, if Yuanmeng wants to send troops, he must directly raise troops to detain the customs, and will not delay the time in Longxing. ”
"Jiangxi lost the war, the water pass is particularly important, once they send troops, they will go straight to the water pass, and will not stay in Longxing. As long as we send a group of soldiers and horses to ambush around Longxing Mansion in advance, and then attack Longxing when the Yuanmeng army arrives at the water dividing pass, then this Yuanmeng army will fall into the predicament of lack of food in a short period of time. ”
"Once they run out of food, they have to withdraw their troops, and then we can ambush again."
No matter what era it is, baggage, supplies, and grain and grass are all important links in warfare.
Mo Xiaobai uses his own soldiers, and he likes to make a fuss about it the most.
It is true that he can't command dozens of small corps to go around the mountains at the same time like a pen, but Mo Xiaobai knows one thing that if the materials or transportation channels are in his own hands, he will have the right to lead the war.
As he thought, after hearing the announcement of the 'Dividing Water Pass Occupied' by some Mongolian players in Zhi Brain informed Zhang Hongfan of the news, Zhang Hongfan's entire old face instantly wrinkled.
As soon as Li Heng had an accident, the water dividing pass was also lost, I was really afraid of something!
It's just that the matter has come to this point, and he can't blame Li Heng for not focusing on the protection of the water dividing pass, so he can only count with his fingers to calculate how many troops he can mobilize.
In order to prepare for the final destruction of the Song Dynasty, the 50,000 troops who set out from Dadu had just set foot on the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal one after another, and they could not reach Lin'an in less than half a month.
The garrison strength of Lin'an Mansion and even the entire Suzhou and Hangzhou region is 8,000 elite cavalry plus 20,000 soldiers. In addition, there are some lords and horses, and the total number is only about fifteen thousand.
It seems that he can mobilize more than 40,000 soldiers and horses at the moment, but if he wants to divide the troops of Wanyang Mountain and Divide the Water Pass, this amount of troops is stretched.
"The cavalry is not good at knocking on the pass, and it is not suitable for large-scale entry into the mountains." The corners of Zhang Hongfan's mouth whispered, and a touch of absoluteness quickly flashed in his eyes.
Li Heng's predicament is a foregone conclusion, and it is more important to divide the water now!
"Summon, gather the defenders of Lin'an Mansion, and send troops to Wuyi Mountain today!"
………
Lin'an Mansion raised an army of 30,000 and went south to the water pass.
When the black-clothed guard who had first spread out sent the news to Mo Xiaobai, even if he already knew that Yuan Meng must be in a big hurry this time, Mo Xiaobai couldn't help but smack his tongue.
This is a posture to decide the winner of a battle!
"Thirty thousand troops."
Yang Yang Yang was also silently whispering this number at this time, although it was not so easy, but he did not show a sad brow, but just looked at the henchman in front of him: "This battle is still arranged by Zhen Su." ”
As the most important pass in the northern vein of Wuyi Mountain, the water dividing pass may not have the prestige of the Bishui Tiger Prison, but it is also a dangerous terrain. If you just defend the pass, it is not so easy to be breached.
If it weren't for this, Zhang Hongfan would not have mobilized almost all the troops in his hands that could be used to seize the pass.
The 30,000-strong Mongolian army, including 8,000 soldiers and horses, went down the river, and only three days later, a vanguard of 5,000 men arrived.
The war broke out in an instant, and noisy shouts of killing resounded inside and outside the pass.
The main force of the water division pass is still the alliance soldiers and horses of sheep and sheep, and under the command of Qin Liangyu, they are blocking the soldiers outside the pass at a glance.
Rolling stones at close range, archery at long distances.
For most of the past half an hour, there have been no Yuanmeng soldiers and horses approaching the head of the pass wall for half a step.
"You're not going to help?"
In the pass, Yang Yang Yang was dispatching people to carry various materials to the city, and seeing that Mo Xiaobai was actually looking around with the appearance of 'watching a play', he suddenly said angrily:
"You brought them in, and you're still indifferent!"
"If you want my help now, how many days can this water gate be guarded?" Mo Xiaobai shook his head slightly, and then pouted: "Didn't you send out the fire gun team too?" It's only the first day, let Qin Liangyu play first, and when I make a move, she won't have anything to do. ”
"Heh~" The corner of the sheep's mouth hooked, giving Mo Xiaobai a roll of the eyes.
Although Mo Xiaobai's remarks were very unbeatable, Yang Yang Yang understood that what he said made some sense after all.
On the first day of guarding, you can't reveal too many hole cards.
Just if you don't expose the hole cards, if you want to firmly guard the pass, the casualties of the soldiers at the head of the city are inevitable, when night falls, the soldiers and horses of the Yuanmeng player commander retreated slightly, Qin Liangyu counted the casualties on the first day, and the data obtained was more amazing than Bao Zhao's battle Gukou.
As many as 200 were killed in the battle, and more than 300 were seriously wounded!
Holding this casualty data in front of Mo Xiaobai and the others, Qin Liangyu also had a somewhat gloomy face: "Lord, Governor, Yuanmeng's archers are not bad, and most of our casualties today are from arrow wounds." ”
On the first day, there were 500 people who could no longer fight, and this news was definitely not a good thing for Yang Yangyang.
"Relying on the city defense, we have already occupied all the geographical advantages and have such high casualties, and when the Yuanmeng army arrives one after another, it will only be more difficult to deal with it." While frowning, Yang Yang Yang also looked at Mo Xiaobai: "You said that the water division is very important, and you should contribute to this." ”
"How do you want me to help?" Mo Xiaobai blinked, raised his eyebrows and asked.
Yang Yangyang didn't hesitate, and said directly: "Don't you have the permission to publish tasks?" Send a mission, let it have Chinese players to guard the level. ”
"Are you sure?" Mo Xiaobai blinked again, and asked with a smile: "If you let others share this cup, you will earn a lot less merit." ”
When Yang Yang Yang heard this, he immediately responded angrily: "That's better than breaking the water barrier, do you think I'm as greedy as you?" Take the most copies of each dungeon. ”
"Okay, okay, I won't tease you."
Mo Xiaobai shook his head slowly at the moment, and said: "What you can think of, how could I forget, although I didn't use the task release permission, but I have already helped you find a player reinforcement through the black guard, and a few more of them should arrive." ”
"You're already looking for someone? Who is it? ”
"The cold winter of the Great Zhou Dynasty in March, you should have an impression."
As Mo Xiaobai finished speaking, Yang Yang Yang thought about it for a while and nodded. At the beginning of the Korean battlefield, the two sides did meet.
"Why didn't you say earlier that there were reinforcements? It makes me nervous. ”
Yang Yang glared at Mo Xiaobai, but the latter pretended to be innocent: "Don't be too happy, his alliance is not big, and the total number is only six thousand." Of course, if it's still not enough, I have another backup. ”
