There are two flowers, one on each branch.

In order to avoid messiness, and a few words of foreword, I want to start with the division of troops at Natong Pass——

On April 25, the seed division made a big fanfare, led the army through Fenglingdu, and went north to support.

Lao Cao set off in the next two days, quietly marched west along the Wei River, ran 2,000 miles in the rest of the month, and robbed Lanzhou.

Then from the waterway surprise attack Xingqing Mansion, achieved great achievements, and then crossed the river to the east, killing the territory of Western Xia turned upside down, Li Qianshun was shocked when he heard the report, and hurriedly ordered his brother Richard to lead 50,000 teachers to turn around to deal with Lao Cao.

At this point, it is the middle of June.

After more than a month of hard work, Lao Cao is making great progress, but there is a mountain of corpses in Taiyuan.

In fact, it is not only Taiyuan.

Now the Great War of the Four Kingdoms of Song, Liao, Jinxia, Henan, Hebei, Shanxi, Shaanxi, and even the land of clouds are all full of smoke and fighting......

The book returns to the main story, but it says that more than 20,000 troops were led in the seed division, crossed the Yellow River, passed through Hezhongfu, Jiangzhou, Jinzhou, and Fenzhou, and went all the way up the Fenshui.

As far as the eye can see along the way, I saw countless people of the Song Dynasty, full of panic, helping the old and the young, and hurriedly fleeing south.

There were also many defeated armies and officials, all mixed in, crying and crying and hurrying away.

Xiao Xiangguo traveled all the way, looking for people all the way to ask, and gradually pieced together the truth-

It turned out that the attack on Taiyuan in Western Xia was not what he thought at the beginning, "it is difficult to overcome Tongguan, so it is difficult to attack Taiyuan", but after breaking through the three prefectures of Feng, Fu and Lin, he divided his troops, and the first army swept the Yongxing military road to the south and hit Tongguan directly, and the first army took the Zhejia army as the front drive to attack Lanzhou in the east.

The Zhe family has been guarding here for generations, how deep is the prestige? Seeing that the Zhe family has still fallen, who dares to be the enemy in the neighboring states and counties?

So the first army on the East Road, the soldiers were bloodless, and they even went down to Xing County, Lan County, and Lou Fu.

In fact, when they were advancing in Luliang Mountain, Lao Cao had just passed by and was recruiting troops and horses from Liaozhou, Longzefu, and Zezhou.

When the Western Xia swept away the area of Luliang and killed Taiyuan Mansion, it failed to conquer it as expected, and was blocked by the Taiyuan prefect Zhang Xiaochun leading the troops.

Zhang Xiaochun this person, is a Jinshi of Yuan Younian, known as a capable person, originally a Yongxing military road transfer judge, because the old official's family wants to open the Yanmen Pass, borrowed Jin Bing from Hedong Road to enter Yuliao, and is afraid that Jin Bing will come, if the love stack is prosperous and refuses to leave? At that time, Yanmen Pass has been handed over to people, how to resist?

After thinking about it, he promoted Zhang Xiaochun to be a straight bachelor of Longtu Pavilion, a pacification envoy of Hedong Road, and a governor of Taiyuan Mansion.

Assuming that Jin Bing's mind really changed, he was asked to defend Taiyuan Mansion to cut off the north-south road, so that the follow-up Jin Bing could not drive straight in.

Unexpectedly, before the Jin soldiers arrived, the Western Xia soldiers committed suicide first.

Fortunately, Zong Ze served here as a commander of soldiers and horses for two years, during which he worked hard, in addition to the forbidden army and the box army, he also trained many archers.

When the old Xianggong fought the Liao State, he took away the forbidden army, the Xiang army, and the archers of the counties, all of which were still local, and were gathered by Zhang Xiaochun in time, and gathered three or four thousand capable warriors, and then launched the people in the city, the army and the people joined forces, and blocked the first round of attacks in Western Xia.

The two sides are still at a stalemate here, and the other Western Xia army is unfavorable to attack Tongguan, so they simply left 20,000 miscellaneous soldiers as suspicious troops to contain the small species, and the rest all went north to participate in the siege of Taiyuan.

It was this road of soldiers and horses that alarmed the old breeders.

The old Xianggong was defeated from the Yellow River, led the remnants of the army to escape into the mountains to recuperate, and wanted to wait for the sick body to heal a little, so he had to go to the aid of Bianliang, but suddenly bumped into the Western Xia forward soldiers and horses, both sides were caught off guard, a chaotic battle, and each retreated.

At this time, the old man didn't know that the Taiyuan beacon fire got up early, he saw that the Western Xia soldiers came from Tongguan, but they couldn't attack Tongguan, so they divided their troops to fight Taiyuan, so they sent Wang Wende to Tongguan to report the news, and led the remnants of the army, and hurried to Taiyuan to help defend the city.

The prestige of the old breed is much higher than that of Zhang Xiaochun, and there are several generals under his command, including Han Cunbao, Qu Ke, and Ma Zhong.

Then the soldiers and horses of the South Road of Xixia rushed in a big way, a total of 130,000 Xixia soldiers, 3,000 Jurchen soldiers, tens of thousands of Zhujia soldiers, plus the Song army that surrendered in several nearby states, a total of no less than 200,000, and surrounded Taiyuan.

Numerous squads were also sent to plunder the grain, so that the people had difficulty making a living and fled south.

When the seed master learned of the situation, he was deeply worried, and asked Lin Chong to discuss: "General Lin, the enemy army of 200,000 surrounds Taiyuan, I can't wait for more than 20,000 people, including half of the recruits, if you forcibly storm the city, the casualties will be amazing, what can you do?" ”

Lin Chong pondered for a long time, and said slowly: "The last general heard that the Taiyuan city wall is forty miles, high and strong, and there are good generals like the old Xianggong in charge, even if the enemy has many soldiers, it is difficult to break ......through in a hurry."

After saying that, he lowered his head and thought about it for a while, and then said in a low voice: "The last general doesn't have any strategy in his heart, but he just thought about it carefully, if my big brother Wu uses soldiers, he will definitely refuse to crash hard...... Yes, that Yuci County is only more than 20 miles away from Taiyuan City, why didn't our army take Yuci and think it was the horn of Taiyuan? ”

The planter pondered: "It's okay! And so he acted accordingly. ”

The two discussed it properly, and immediately rushed to Yuci, but they were happy that this county was not occupied by Western Xia, and the people had all fled, leaving an empty city.

The two were overjoyed, and hurriedly led troops in, and immediately sent people to demolish the houses and repair the city gates and walls.

It turned out that this county also had a glorious time, but it was Emperor Taizong who destroyed the Northern Han Dynasty, destroyed Jinyang City, abolished Taiyuan Mansion and merged with the state, abolished Taiyuan and Jinyang two counties, and newly placed the state military, moved to Yuci, so the city wall was repaired according to the scale of the city, and later because of "Yuci had to meet", and the military administration of the state was moved back to Taiyuan New Town, Yuci was re-reduced to a subordinate county, but the city wall remained.

Xiao Chongxiang said fairly: "Since our army is here, we should say hello to Xia Gou, so that he does not dare to attack the city with all his might." You sit in the city, and wait for the old man to kill him. ”

Lin Chong hurriedly stopped: "In the year of the sixtieth year, if you are allowed to go into battle to fight, what is the use of leaving me and other juniors?" Lin led his own soldiers and horses to kill him. ”

The little kind of minister said: "If you want to go, don't leak the tiger cavalry under your command, but this elite army is of great use." You will only lead my own troops, and you shall not go deeper, but you will come back with a little demonstration. ”

Lin Chong hugged his fists and received the order, and then led more than 800 soldiers of the small kind of Xianggong out of the city, all the way to Taiyuan, and he never even met a scout.

Lin Chong said discoloredly: "Oh no, my brother's biggest concern is the confluence of the Jin soldiers, and seeing that the Western Xia soldiers are so careless, they must know the situation of the battle in Bianliang and know that our army is unable to take care of Taiyuan, but how did he know?" It must have been sent to contact Lou Muro's gang. ”

Then he gritted his teeth and said: "But since he dares to be so careless, he doesn't blame Lin for killing him ruthlessly today." ”

The place where he came was to the east of Taiyuan City, where Li Liangfu, the general of Western Xia, was seated, leading more than 20,000 people, and was attacking the city.

Lin Chong looked back and shouted: "You and the others are all brave men in the Western Army, and they have countless summer dog lives in their hands, Lin is not talented, and he only fought with Xia Gou for the second time, and look at my battle, I can ask for a few of his lives!" ”

Those Western soldiers laughed and said: "Xia Gou is really powerful, only an iron harrier ear, and now these infantry troops, we will take what we want." ”

Lin Chong saw that his morale was not bad, his heart was a little relieved, and he smiled: "That being the case, I simply went to assassinate his general, thinking that the Taiyuan defenders would share their worries." ”

After saying that, he waved his spear and shouted: "Kill the summer dog!" ”

More than 800 people responded in unison, beating their horses and galloping in unison.

The Xixia people were attacking the city, suddenly heard a change behind them, and hurriedly turned back, Lin Chong took the lead, glared and gritted his teeth, crashed into the Western Xia rear army, and swept with a snake spear, and the former were all invincible.

Xia general Li Liangfu, sitting on the Taishi chair and looking at his subordinates attacking the city, suddenly heard the sound of killing behind him, jumped up in shock, hurriedly got on the horse to take a look, saw that the enemy was less than a thousand, and couldn't help but be furious: "These birdmen, also dare to come to ask for wildfire, today they killed him, so that the defenders in the city are afraid." ”

Saying shouting, commanding the soldiers and horses to outflank, but only a few orders were transmitted, and I saw the Song army, but the momentum was extremely fast, looking at the direction, it was coming at himself!

There are divisions: 20,000 male soldiers surrounded Taiyuan, and the generals bravely added new reinforcements. The war drums of Dongcheng roared into the sky, and a snake spear was set off in huge waves.

It's too slow to write, it's too short, and the little brother can't help it.

There is another chapter in the evening, which may be later~~
