"The herald ordered that all the troops should not be moved, that no man should be unarmoured, and that no horse should be unsaddled, and that he should wait for military orders. (To read the latest chapters of this book, please visit the biquge.info of Wèn Aishang Novel Network......
"There is no need to put out the fire, demolish the granary near the houses, and don't let the fire spread."
"Order the guards of the four cities to close the four gates, and not to leave the city wall without our military order."
"Sent an order to Hehe, Zhou Zuo, and ordered the two of them to lead their troops and the officials in the city to inspect the four cities, and within three days, all idle people and others appeared in the market, all of them were regarded as fine work, and they were immediately beheaded."
"Write to the imperial court, order someone to send it to Beijing urgently, and ask the imperial court to transfer grain to Taiyuan before the year, how much is the number, and ask the rabbit cubs sent by the Xijing Household Department."
The forks came out one after another, the situation gradually became more and more sinister, looking at the red sky in the west city, the monk Wanyan calmed down, but frowned slightly, and blurted out a series of military orders without hesitation.
"I'm afraid the Qin people are going to take advantage of the chaos to retreat." Du Ji Sizhong, who rushed over in a hurry, was a little disheveled, this fire came so suddenly, and the two of them knew very well what they burned, and at this time, Du Ji Sizhong, who had always been unhurried, was also a little anxious
"I can't ask for it" Monk Wanyan sneered, with an indescribable confidence on his face, and a trace of excitement about to get the prey, without a little frustration, "Tomorrow the Qin army will retreat, I will lead the troops out of the city to chase the enemy, and break the Qin army, just around the corner, this Taiyuan City, and my brother will take care of it for some time, and I will return triumphantly, and then drink with my brother."
The Wanyan monk Duji Sizhong, who was looking at Yuanchun Yuezhi, finally put his mind at ease and said with a smile: "Okay, just wait for you to come back"
The fire in Taiyuan naturally also alarmed the Qin army under the slope, in the dark night, the Qin army camp woke up from its slumber, sāo moved, when the sky was twilight, Zhao Shi led people to climb to the high place in the village, and looked in the direction of Taiyuan.
It was not long before the military order was issued.
"Command all departments, pack up, and after breakfast, immediately pull out the camp, and let's go back to Yuci."
Under the fortified city, withdrawing the troops and leaving, it is undoubtedly the most dangerous thing Zhao Shi has been waiting for this fire, maybe he will have to wait until the first heavy snow in winter comes, he will pull out the camp and retreat back to Fenzhou, at that time, the weather is very cold, which is not good for the Qin army, but it will definitely not be easy for the chasing soldiers.
It is conceivable that the road to retreat will be extremely difficult, the two armies Liao Zhan, the result is likely to be both defeats, by that time 50,000 Qin Chuan children, nearly 100,000 children of Hezhong, can return to Fenzhou safely, how many will it be, it is Zhao Shi himself, and there is no bottom What's even more terrible is that the severe cold in the north, and the heavy snow is closed to the road and the non-combat attrition will be the biggest reason for the loss of the soldiers.
Therefore, this sudden fire, whether it was true or not, also gave him the opportunity to choose, and he did not hesitate to choose to withdraw at this time, because only in this way can Du Shanhu and Zhang Fengju make peace with the army in time, and only in this way will Mu Huali and Wang Shengbao be less dangerous.
And without the heavy snow, this early decisive battle may be more fierce and more cruel.
Zhao Shi was not mistaken
After breakfast, the Qin army, which had already been ready to stop, immediately pulled out the camp, and the 10,000 new troops in the river guarded the * heavy camp and Ding Zhuang first, followed by the middle army of the army, Hu Li led 5,000 Tiger Wusheng soldiers and a Daozhong battalion to stay in the camp, and cut off the rear of the army.
In fact, at this time, don't look at the army, the array is tight, and the armor is complete, in fact, it is not, at this time, among the army, there are only 15,000 people left in the elite of the Tiger Wusheng Army, which also includes the craftsmen and military service of the rice heavy battalion, and the rest are all newly recruited troops in the river, with nearly 70,000 people, and the rest are all recruited Ding Zhuang, except for Zhao Shi's personal guard, there is no cavalry to accompany him
In this way, the army under Zhao Shi has actually reached its weakest moment since the northern crossing.
Zhao Shi naturally understood this, so the army withdrew and left, but did not dare to hurry, only slowly retreated to the south, such a marching speed, sooner or later will be chased by the Jin soldiers, in Taiyuan Jin soldiers, it is inevitable.
The worst thing is that the Jin soldiers' response was extremely fast, and the fire in Taiyuan City was still there, but several large armies that had already been stationed outside Taiyuan City, such as the Zahu Battalion, the Tiger Guards, and the Yude Army, immediately moved and converged in the south of the city.
Since the arrival of the Qin army, the city gate of Taiyuan City, which had never been opened, was also opened at this time, and a team of soldiers poured out from the city gate, quickly spreading an array under the city, and in less than an hour, tens of thousands of horses were already in full array.
A big banner was raised from the army, and the two big words on it were waving in the cold wind.
Looking down from the sky, the array of golden people is getting wider and wider, thicker and thicker, dense, and the city of Taiyuan is tightly covered.
The low horn sound unique to the Jin people sounded, and under the city of Taiyuan, the atmosphere of slaughter became stronger and stronger.
Monk Wanyan was surrounded by all the generals, came to the front of the formation, looked at the big village built by the Qin people in the distance, his face was expressionless, he was not in a hurry, the Qin army was all foot soldiers, and he couldn't go far, the first thing to do was to break the camp, and then wave his troops forward, catch up with the Qin army's brigade, and fight with it on the bank of Fenshui.
And he also knew in his heart that although the army under his command was recuperated and recharged, it seemed that he was also strong and strong, but Sun Wenjin was newly defeated, and the morale of the various departments under him was low, and it was difficult to be the first attacker.
Thinking of these shortcomings, Monk Wanyan was slightly depressed, but he still did not hesitate to order, "The other departments will rectify the army and let people fill in the trenches." With the order, a group of Minzhuang was driven to the front of the battle, using the soil and stones that had been prepared, and then they rushed quickly in the direction of the Qin army's camp and threw the soil and stones into the trench dug by the Qin army.
In the Qin army's village, five thousand tiger warriors and soldiers have been waiting for the battle, and the main force of the army has abandoned the village, and the remaining people are naturally unable to hold such a large camp, so they can only delay the march of the Jin army as much as possible.
Hu Li, who led the troops, was very aware of this, so when these people filled in the trenches, there was no movement in the village. Just wait for the golden soldiers to attack.
Although the trench was deep, it was not slow to be filled, but in just over an hour, most of the trench had been filled.
The chaos when the golden soldiers were deployed had passed, and the various departments had scrupulously adhered to their positions, and the military formation seemed to be more and more tightly organized.
In the midst of the dancing of the banners, as usual of the Jin army, the Zahu battalion, dressed in tatters and like savages, was transferred to the front of the formation, and in the low sound of the horn, there was a deafening howl, and the thick and wild Hu warriors swarmed forward.
There was still no array to speak of, and the chaotic following their respective leaders rushed desperately in the direction of the Qin army camp, and the heavy footsteps made the ground tremble slightly, and the black crowd quickly spread forward.
The strange whistling sound finally sounded from Qin You's camp, and many people looked at the huge stones flying in the sky and became erect, and the familiar sound made the corners of Monk Wanyan's mouth twitch, and he repeatedly measured the distance between the two armies, and then relieved his heart.
Immediately ordered two Han soldiers to march to the east of Dazhai and attack from the east, and the rest of the troops. Do not move lightly.
The huge stone fell, smashing the people below into a puddle of flesh and blood, and then tumbled forward, passing through the Zahu camp, breaking through the qiē things that stood in front of it, leaving a line of flesh and blood.
The Hu warriors of the Zahu camp looked at the sky in fear, and quickened their pace, such a long-distance raid, so that many people were out of breath, and when they approached the Qin army camp, the rain of arrows fell as scheduled, splashing blood in the Zaming camp array, and the Hu warriors who had unexpectedly slowed down fell like cutting wheat, and the blood began to flow wantonly on the ground, and soon converged into a stream, and the smell of blood began to drift in the air.
However, such an advantage was only temporary, and when the Hu soldiers were dressed in rough clothes and rushed to the bottom of the camp, and the two more than 10,000 Han troops quickly approached from the east, the fall of Dazhai was irretrievable.
The Jin soldiers attacked resolutely, and almost as soon as they met, they had carried this short battle to the most tragic stage.
The strong Hu soldiers began to climb the wall, and the two Han armies in the east had also arrived, Hu Li did not dare to hesitate, and immediately ordered people to burn and throw artillery, and did not fight hard with the Jin soldiers, all the soldiers gathered in one place, and slowly retreated to the back of the village.
When the Hu warriors climbed the wall, opened the gate, and let their own troops swarm in, the same was true for the Han army over there
After a while, half of the Qin army's Dazhai had fallen, and it was unbelievably fast, and more and more golden soldiers like ant colonies entered the village, shouting and howling and rushing to the back village.
When the dense rockets lifted off from the Qin army's rear village, and then fell everywhere in the village, lit the fire, and the smoke accompanied by the flames, it steamed up almost instantly, and the generals in the Jin soldier array lost their voices again.
The trees cut down by the Qin army have already been transported to the tent of the camp in the dark night, and the fire oil is poured on it, this time, Zhao Shi almost used the things that are ready to attack the city, all of them are used here, the fire is not too big, but the smoke is billowing out, straight up to the sky, and the few places in Taiyuan City in the distance are still burning The fire head complements each other and makes the golden soldiers who entered the village panic instantly, dodging everywhere, trampling on each other, the casualties are countless, and the golden soldiers who have not yet entered the Qin army village have stopped
Monk Wanyan looked around at the generals and sneered: "The small skill of carving insects is not worth mentioning, give an order, the army will move forward, tear down the wall, and extinguish the fire"
Wait until Hu Li led the troops back to the team, the Jin soldiers almost killed the tail, of course, it was the cavalry of the Jin soldiers, more than ten miles northwest of Yuci, the Qin army was finally forced to stop, the Jin soldiers came one after another, the two armies faced each other, fought back and forth, and gradually became more frequent, a day later, the main force of the two armies finally set up a formation face to face, and the decisive battle of the army was close at hand.
At the same time, tens of thousands of troops and horses of Jin Renqing Rongjun have already plundered Qingyuan, Wenshui, and Qi County across the river.
And in the northeast of Qi County, tens of thousands of Shangdang Jin soldiers, under the command of the Longde Army and the Han Army under the leadership of Lin Qingshu, stormed Zihongkou.
The shouts of killing resounded through the heavens and the earth, and the tide-like Jin soldiers launched one bō after another attack on the Qin army's military array almost without interruption. No fangs have ever been raised.
Arrows rained down, swords and spears were wielded, and the lives that were fresh one moment turned into bloody corpses in the next, and the corpses quickly accumulated in front of the two armies, and the blood made the ground extremely muddy.
The broken knives and guns, the arrows that pierced the ground like grass, the two armies still fluttered when they stood up, but under the winter sun, they seemed to be stained with a little blood.
In only half a day's work, there were thousands of soldiers of the two armies, bloodstained on the spot, and the casualties had become a simple number at this time, whether it was Han, Jurchen, Khitan, or other Hu people, no matter how high or noble they were, or they could become part of this flesh and blood slaughterhouse.
And whether it is Monk Wanyan or Zhao Shi, they will not look at these casualties, all they want is victory, once they will succeed, all bones will wither, ancient and modern things, nothing more than that.
The war began with a temptation, and gradually entered the **, the Jin soldiers attacked, the Qin army defended, the Jin soldiers slapped the Qin army's defense line like a bō wave, and the Qin army was like a reef, standing still.
10,000 Tiger Warriors and Warriors, firmly nailed in front of the battle, young and long-trained physique, all the way north, has become familiar with the battlefield of flesh and blood, and even some fanatical, at this time the advantage is undoubtedly displayed, no matter how fierce the Jin Soldiers' offensive is, they will not be able to shake the Qin Army Array.
If it weren't for the generals and colonels at all levels in the new army, most of whom were serving as national military supervisors, they were likely to collapse at the beginning of the war, and the strict military orders became less reliable on the bloody battlefield.
These children of the river are gradually becoming numb, it is true that the fierce and somewhat unfavorable war is the best whetstone, and if they can survive, they will become the foundation of the elite" Everyone understands this, but it is also the last thing the commander of the army wants to see, just because the price paid is too high.
But now, I have to do it, and I don't hesitate to throw the blood of the children in the river on the fertile soil east of the river
Zhao Shi stood under the banner of Shuai and looked coldly ahead, the Jin people's offensive again began to become exhausted, and the Han soldiers who could not bear the casualties turned their heads and retreated.
The Qin army could not pursue, and even the arrows no longer fell on the heads of these fleeing Jin soldiers and Han soldiers, so they could only silently tiff their wounds and wait for the next offensive of the Jin soldiers.
The fierceness of the Jin soldiers' offensive made Zhao Shi frown, the battle situation was very unfavorable, the elite of the Jin soldiers had not moved, but their own army had used all their strength, only defending and not attacking, but how long could they hold it? But in such a situation, I can only wait, I hope that the Tiger Martial Arts Army that I have carved will have that tenacity, and I can wait for the moment when the Jin Soldier lù breaks the slander.
At this time, Zhang Sizhong sent someone over to ask for battle, and Zhao Shi waved his hand impatiently, "Sue him, wait for my military order, and if you want to be wordy, I will behead him." ”
The herald left a little gloomy, and Zhao Shi instructed: "Send the order to Zhao Youyan, let him be careful, where the casualties are too heavy, send someone to make up for it." ”
"Send an order to Wang Lan, Hu Li, and the morale boosting thing must be done
Let them inform their soldiers that in this battle, the greatest meritorious service, I will issue a number of names and allow them to form an army of their own. ”
Yes, he was not afraid that the soldiers of the 10,000 Tiger Martial Victory Army would be tired, he was only afraid that these young people would not be able to endure the casualties, and eventually let people break away from the array.
A day passed, the sun sank in the west, although the Fenshui was still surging, not frozen, but on the land on the bank of the Fenshui, a thin layer of red ice had formed, and the corpses of different costumes were almost covered with a battle place about several miles long and more than a hundred steps wide, and the jackdaws were chirping in the sky, and some of them could not wait to fall, pecking at the rare delicious flesh and blood.
The Qin army slowly retreated and camped for two miles, and the Jin soldiers slowly moved forward, always maintaining their coercion, but they did not launch another offensive, and the two armies tacitly set up camps, lit bonfires, cooked food, and restored calm on the battlefield, only occasionally along the cold wind, would you hear the shēn groans and shouts of the wounded.
The battle of more than 200,000 troops, under normal circumstances, can decide the winner in a day and a half, but the two armies, which have been wrestling with each other for more than a month, have finally reached the juncture of the dagger!
