Water Margin Chapter 44 Tian Hu
Zhang Qing and Dong Ping were arrested, and the 30,000 troops of the Song army were defeated.
Dongping Mansion was easily captured by Wang Dong, which can be described as gratifying.
"Zhang Qing, Dong Ping, I know that you are talented, so let's go down!
Follow Liang Guo to fight the country, and mix up with the founding general in the future, isn't it good? ”
Wang Dong looked at the two and smiled.
When the two saw Wang Dong so sincere, they were moved.
He was not too reserved, and knelt directly to the ground and asked to surrender.
Wang Dong was overjoyed, and immediately ordered the two to be generals and let Zhang Qing go to attack Dongchang Mansion.
In less than two days, Wang Dong received good news that Dongchang Mansion had surrendered to the Liang State.
"Haha, how long has it been?
Now half of Shandong is my Great Liang land, and I believe that it will not be long before I will take the whole of Shandong. ”
In fact, it is also supported by a large amount of money and food.
The Liang State developed rapidly, and the 100,000 horse infantry army continued to conquer.
Qingzhou, Mizhou, Laizhou, Dengzhou, Haizhou, Xuzhou, etc.
It was occupied one after another, and the power of the Great Song Dynasty in Shandong was swept away.
The people of Sanshan were even more unstoppable, and easily took Yanzhou, expanding the territory of the Great Liang Kingdom again.
……
"In just one year, the entire Great Song Dynasty was divided up by the four great Kou.
Now we occupy the whole of Shandong, and Wang Qing occupies Hedong, Henan, Central Plains and other regions.
Tianhu occupied Hebei, Taiyuan, Longxi, Tianshui and other regions.
Fang La occupies half of the south of the Yangtze River.
The strength of the four major Kou Fang Lai is the strongest, and there will be no big moves in a short period of time.
I plan to unite with Wang Qing and destroy Hebei Tianhu first, what do you think? ”
Wang Dong looked at the map and said.
"Ministers seconded the ......"
Sun An, Lin Chong and others had no objections.
Now the strongest are Tian Hu and Fang La, only by destroying the strong, the weak will have a chance to survive.
After the court meeting, the envoy soon arrived at Wang Qing's palace.
Not to be outdone, this guy is called the emperor, and the country is called Dawei.
After all, most of Wang Qing's territory belonged to Cao Wei, so Wang Qing moved here to use it.
Hearing the partnership to fight Tianhu, the Great Wei Dynasty was discussing, and finally the civil and military opinions were unified.
Wang Qing wanted to attack the nearest regions such as Longxi, Tianshui and Taiyuan, but Wang Dong's strength was poor, so he only took Hebei.
Wang Dong personally took command and raised 200,000 troops.
Lin Chong, Lu Zhishen, Wu Song, Qin Ming, Zhang Qing, Yang Zhi, Li Kui, Lei Heng, Zhu Tong, Shi Jin, Yang Xiong, Shi Xiu, Mu Hong, Hua Rong, Li Ying, Chao Gai, Gongsun Sheng, Liu Tang, Li Jun, Zhang Shun and other 20 generals followed.
Sun An, the Ruan brothers, Zhang Shuye, Zhu Gui and others stayed in Daliang, and the three clans were responsible for carrying grain and grass.
When the news broke, the world shook.
Wang Qing was much more ruthless than Wang Dong, raising 400,000 troops to defeat Tian Hu with the whole country's troops.
If it weren't for the fact that Fang La had too much territory and was unable to go north in a short period of time, Fang La would definitely have stepped in.
Two princes, 600,000 troops crusade.
Even if Tian Hu is wealthy, he has to have a headache.
Tian Hu's territory is much larger than that of Wang Qing and Wang Dong, and his subordinates are even more capable, and there are millions of soldiers and horses.
There are more troops than Yuan Shao in his heyday at the end of the Han Dynasty, which shows how strong his power is.
Tian Hu is not stupid, he knows to find allies Jin Guo and Da Liao to help.
The two countries said that there is no problem, you fight first, if you are defeated, we are helping.
Tian Hu was relieved, and he had no worries, so he let go of his hands and feet to fight.
Tian Hu thought that Daliang was a rookie, and concentrated an army of 600,000 to take Wang Dong directly.
The remaining 300,000 elites defended Longxi and Tianshui, and when they killed Daliang, they came back to kill Wang Qing.
……
In Hebei, the Liang army was like a bamboo.
The siege of the city was like walking on the ground, and the army arrived in Jizhou and met the main army of Tian Hu.
"The order went down, and the army retreated thirty miles back and set up camp, waiting for the Hebei army to attack."
Wang Dong ordered.
The 200,000-strong army was overwhelmed, and there was no end in sight.
But when so many people compare with Tian Hu, it is a difference between heaven and earth.
The Chinese army has a big tent, and the atmosphere is a little dignified.
Everyone knew the situation of the enemy army in Jizhou City, and they had no idea for a while.
"Your Majesty! Tian Hu's army is three times larger than mine, and he will definitely be defeated in the field battle.
Why don't you retreat and lure the enemy deeper? ”
Lin Chong and the generals discussed for a while and suggested to Wang Dong.
Wang Dong shook his head, Hebei is a plain area, not a mountainous area, luring the enemy to go deeper?
Isn't that looking for death?
As soon as the army withdrew, it was a real defeat, and the consequences were very serious.
"Your Majesty! The minister had an idea to sail from Qingzhou to the sea with a navy and go around to the border of the Jin Kingdom.
landed from the small town of Pingshu and secretly went around to Jizhou.
When the two armies are decisively decisive, they will be able to make contributions by sneaking up on Tian Hu's army. ”
Zhang Shun said excitedly.
All the generals looked at the map, and after a while, Li Jun smashed his fist on the map.
Excitedly: "Your Majesty!
This idea is very good, don't forget that our army has an eagle clan to guide the sea route.
The enemy army knows nothing about our army, and this is not in line with what is said in the art of war. ”
"Your Majesty! The minister seconded. ”
Lin Chong said.
"The ministers seconded the proposal."
……
Wang Dong nodded and estimated the distance.
The command said: "This battle is about the overall situation, and victory will determine the world."
If you lose, you will go far overseas, and don't want to enter the Central Plains for the rest of your life.
From Qingzhou to Pingshu, it takes a month.
During this time, we learned from Sun Wu's general Lu Xun, dragged Tian Hu's army, and bought time for the navy. ”
"No!"
The plan was proposed by Zhang Shun, and Zhang Shun was in charge.
Li Jun, Tong Wei, Tong Meng, Zhang Heng, Ruan Xiaowu, Ruan Xiaoqi, He Cheng and others are deputy generals.
100,000 waterway troops to complete the mission.
I sent the Eagle Clan and the White Tiger Clan to help.
After the task was completed, the golden eagle family was sent to report the news, and the success or failure was in this move. ”
"No!"
The generals were commanded to go down and prepare.
In the next month, no matter how Tian Hu called for the battle, Wang Dong would change places with one shot.
Never entangled with Tian Hu's army, so that Tian Hu hated it, but he was helpless.
Tian Hu has made a bloody investment this time, and the generals under his command are basically all together, no less than the generals under Wang Dong, which shows his ambition.
……
Zhang Shun led the fleet by sea and took a month to reach the border of Jin.
Through the full monitoring of the Eagles, the army landed in the port of Pingshu.
How could such a big movement not alarm the Jin country?
In fact, Jin Guo got the news as soon as possible.
It's just the civilian clothes worn by the Liang army, and they didn't stay too long, and soon hid their whereabouts.
This made Jin Guo not pay too much attention, but just let the border guards inquire about the news in many ways.
Lao Bai and the Eagle King were told by Wang Dong that they didn't need Zhang Shun's orders.
One passed the news in the sky all the way, and the other commanded the group to raid the sentinels.
As long as the spies of the Jin Kingdom and Tian Hu found Zhang Shun's army, they would be dealt with by the White Tiger clan.
The great army slept during the day and marched at night.
Passing through a city and a town, he took a detour directly on a small road, and did not entangle with the local officers and soldiers at all, and his movements were crisp and neat.
When the 100,000 waterway army arrived in the mountains and forests outside Jizhou City, a month and a half had passed.
At this time, Wang Dong had already led an army of 200,000 and Tian Hu's army of 600,000 to set up a position.
The millions of armies on both sides were fighting together, and the faint sound of fighting could be heard hundreds of miles away.
"General! What are we going to do? ”
Li Jun and the others asked.
Zhang Shun looked at the sky, gritted his teeth and said: "Wait for the order, without the emperor's order, our task is to lurk."
The generals were anxious, but the military orders were like a mountain, and they had to wait patiently.
On the battlefield outside Jizhou, Wang Dong's Shenbow Battalion, Hussar Battalion, Tiger Battalion, Artillery Battalion, Black Bear Clan, Monkey Clan, etc.
All joined the battle, and fought with Tian Hu, which can be regarded as bankrupt.
"Report ...... Report to the emperor!
Our army was surrounded by an enemy army of 600,000 troops, and the army was in danger and asked for reinforcements. ”
The herald was covered in blood and scarred, and the poor report was poor.
"Order, let the fire bull array charge, break through the enemy formation, success or failure in one fell swoop."
Wang Dong said lightly.
"No!"
Long before the decisive battle, Wang Dong prepared tens of thousands of cattle.
Each ox's tail was sprinkled with fire oil, which was used to wait for this critical moment.
He has only 200,000 troops, but his opponent is three times larger.
No matter how elite he is, he is not Tian Hu's opponent.
Why can't you make a surprise move?
"Boom ......"
Tens of thousands of cattle with their tails on fire rushed into the formation of an army of 800,000 at this time, which was called a spectacular.
Wherever the cattle passed, the Tianhu army fled for their lives.
Seeing this, the morale of the Great Liang army was greatly boosted, and they took the lead in running in the direction of Jizhou City.
For fear of running slower and being hit by the herd and dying, this greatly avoids casualties.
Tian Hujun is not stupid, he has the same example, but the question is who has the most people!
Obviously, Tian Hujun was numerous, and most of them were implicated by the herd.
What causes chaos on the battlefield is very good-looking.
Wang Dong saw that Tian Hu's army was almost tossed, so he asked the golden eagle to send a message to Zhang Shun.
Let them meet Lin Chong and come back, and the Hebei army will not be left.
Wang Dong has done everything he can, and the rest is left to fate!
