Six hundred and thirty-six: Defeated Wujiang

Yang Yinglong knows Liu Ting's strength, so he is so anxious at this time, if Liu Ting is allowed to continue to fight so unscrupulously, then Banzhou's layout in the north will have to be nullified!

Yang Yinglong himself knows that his arrangement is like a toy to Liu Ting, and he can't stop Liu Ting at all! If he can't successfully block Liu Ting, Liu Ting's next step is to attack Loushan Pass!

As soon as the Loushan Pass is broken, Banzhou will have no danger to defend! That's really the last moment!

Yang Yinglong anxiously turned in circles, looking at the map in front of him, Yang Yinglong couldn't help but feel a tingling scalp, Jia Jing's 240,000 troops pressed the border and besieged from all directions! This sense of oppression is something Yang Yinglong has never felt!

At this time, his subordinate Yang Zhu stood up and said to Yang Yinglong: "Chitose! Liu Ting, Wu Guang and other armies have all marched, our army can't defend it, so it's better to divide the troops to resist the enemy! ”

Yang Zhaolong also nodded helplessly and sighed: "The imperial army is divided into eight routes, and it can't win for a while, so it can only be divided into various places to resist!" ”

Yang Yinglong sighed, and suddenly remembered what Sun Shitai said to him before, if the imperial army encircled and suppressed Banzhou, then it must be encircled and suppressed by many parties, and our "troops are weak, and the officers and troops are not gathered, and the weak ones will be broken first, and the rest will retreat!" ”

Yang Yinglong's 180,000 troops would definitely be enough as a defender, but once dispersed, it would definitely be a little insufficient!

Therefore, the strategic method proposed by Sun Shitai in the face of Jia Jing's siege on all sides is to take advantage of the fact that the Eighth Route Army has not yet converged and assembled, and attack the weakest of them first! The rest of the people are naturally afraid to step forward without permission!

And as long as one of them is annihilated, it will be an extremely serious blow to the morale of the imperial army! The other frustrations are bound to be frightened and disrupt their offensive plans and efficiency!

Thinking like this, Yang Yinglong looked at the map on the wall, and slowly shook his head at everyone and said, "Don't divide the troops, Mr. Sun has already ordered before leaving, let's pick the weakest one in the Eighth Route Army!" ”

Yang Yinglong's voice fell, and then someone came to report that after hearing about Liu Tingjun's victory, Tong Yuanzhenjun in the South Fourth Route Army accelerated the speed of the attack, and now the troops are out of Wujiang!

Yang Yinglong was overjoyed when he heard this: "This is the easiest one we are looking for!" Yang Yinglong then ordered Yang Zhaolong to lead the army to attack and destroy Tong Yuan Town!

At this time, on the bank of the Wujiang River, Tong Yuanzhen looked at the soldiers who were building a pontoon bridge in the distance, and couldn't help sighing.

Tong Yuanzhen was afraid of Yang Yinglong, and the troops were sent for many days, and he always dared not easily enter Tongren, and the Chinese army marshal Xue Qiu was severely driven many times, and Tong Yuanzhen never dared to act rashly.

It wasn't until the news of Liu Ting's advance into Loushan Pass came, and the Shuixi Anjiang ministers came to support with Shuixi native soldiers, that Tong Yuanzhen became anxious, worried about being questioned, so he hurriedly decided to go out of Wujiang!

Yang Yinqiu, the military envoy in the army, heard about it and persuaded him that Wujiang is very close to Banzhou, and we can't act rashly, and we should wait for several other armies to go deep before we can send troops together.

But at this time, Tong Yuanzhen was afraid that he would be held accountable if he didn't march again, and there were still so many people under him, so Tong Yuanzhen still didn't listen to Yang Yinqiu's advice, and hurriedly sent troops!

The Yongshun soldiers under his command easily captured the Wujiang River, and then Tong Yuanzhen arranged for someone to urgently build a pontoon bridge and ordered the soldiers to cross the river urgently!

The pontoon bridge was narrow and few, and the soldiers could only run across the river to catch up, and the shore was full of thousands of people arranged by Yang Zhaolong who were shouting and scolding and leading the war, and Tong Yuanzhen ignored it.

Just after this, a herald hurriedly ran over and shouted, "Report! Commander-in-Chief! The front of our army has captured Laojun Pass! ”

Tong Yuanzhen couldn't help but perk up when he heard this, and then hurriedly ordered the front to be stationed in Laojun Pass, and the rear to be stationed in Wujiang, and Tong Yuanzhen ran to Laojun Pass.

It's just that what he didn't know was that after he left, he originally ordered General Xie Chongjue to be in the Governor of Surabaya and Shuixi Soldiers, who knew that Xie Chongjue heard that the armies were so relaxed, and he couldn't help but despise the Banzhou army, so he carelessly ordered his soldiers to continue to cross the river!

Shuishui An Jiangchen couldn't help but be a little worried after hearing this, his younger brother An Yaochen came with him as a deputy general to support the imperial army, so at this time, I heard that Xie Chongjue wanted them to cross the river after the Chinese army, and couldn't help but say to An Jiangchen: "Big brother, if we all cross the river, there will be no one to answer on the Surabaya side, if there is really a three long and two short, then .........."

An Jiangchen also meant this, and he also felt that Xie Chongjue was a little rash, but as Tusi soldiers, they were not very trusted troops, and if they raised objections at this time, they would probably attract suspicion.

So An Jiangchen could only sigh helplessly and said: "This is Shangguan's order, if we don't listen, I'm afraid they will be unfavorable to us!" ”

An Yaochen also understood what An Jiangchen meant, so he hesitated for a moment and said: "Otherwise, the soldiers will be divided into two ways, eldest brother, you are on guard here, listen to their orders, I will take people to attack Kuzhuguan and Jiba Ling, so that even if there is any change here, we have a strength in Hedong after all, how?" ”

When An Jiangchen heard this, he felt that what his brother said made sense, so he nodded and agreed, so An Yaochen took 3,000 soldiers and horses and troops to attack Kuzhu Pass.

Yang Zhaolong couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard that the Surabaya soldiers and the Shuixi soldiers had crossed the river, this Tong Yuan town was really the easiest! I don't even know the reason why I want to cross the river and leave the rear palace!

Yang Zhaolong immediately eliminated thousands of cavalry to attack the Surabaya soldiers and Shuixi soldiers!

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! ”

Xie Chongjue couldn't help but be shocked when he heard the roar from the scout in front, obviously he didn't expect that the Banzhou soldiers would dare to cross the Laojun Pass and directly attack his rear army!

But there were more than 10,000 people in his rear army, and although he was surprised by thousands of paces, he was not very surprised, so he rolled his eyes and ordered An Jiangchen's Shuixi elephant soldiers to take the lead!

An Jiangchen hurriedly persuaded: "The elephant soldiers need infantry in front of them to exert their might!" If there is no infantry to fight together, the elephant soldiers will be attacked by a group, and it is easy to lose control! ”

Xie Chongjue listened to An Jiangchen's push, but when he was unwilling to move forward, he was afraid of losing soldiers and horses, and he felt even more embarrassed to be instructed by him in person, so he said sternly: "The general will ask you to send troops, and you will send troops!" What is the reason for pushing three and resisting four? Don't you listen to my commands? ”

An Jiangchen opened his mouth when he heard this, but he was helpless because his identity was sensitive, so he could only bow his head helplessly and say yes, and then ordered the Shuixi soldiers of his headquarters to fight.

The native soldiers of Shuixi drove the war elephants to crush Yang Zhaolong's army, and for a while, Yang Zhaolong's army fled in all directions, and the infantry were easily killed or seriously injured by the war elephants with their noses and tusks!

Xie Chongjue couldn't help laughing when he saw this, and scolded Yang Zhaolongjun mockingly: "Just such a little person, just such a little ability, dare to attack the camp?" What a joke! ”

Yang Zhaolong in the army saw that the soldiers were crushed by the war elephants, and that there were no enemy soldiers around the war elephants to protect him, so he hurriedly shouted: "Shoot the elephant repellent!" Shoot in the head! Shoot the elephant in the head! ”

So the Banzhou soldiers were ordered to hurriedly distance themselves from the war elephants, and then drew their bows and arrows, and easily shot the elephant soldiers on the back of the war elephants!

The giant elephant that lost the control of the soldiers suffered pain, suddenly lost his mind, and actually turned his head and trampled towards the camp of the Surabaya soldiers!

Xie Chongjue couldn't help but be shocked when he saw this, and An Jiangchen slapped the saddle of his horse, and hurriedly ordered his soldiers to abandon the war elephant team and retreat urgently!

Xie Chongjue yelled: "Don't retreat!" No refunds! Musketeers! Go up! Stop the enemy! Hearing this, the musket team in the Surabaya soldiers hurriedly stepped forward and released their guns in unison!

Before the Shuixi soldiers had time to retreat, they were mixed with the Surabaya soldiers, and the musket team that rushed into the battlefield couldn't tell who was who, so they actually shot their own people!

Now the Surabaya soldiers are also messed up! Desperately flee backwards! His own war elephants in turn crushed the friendly troops, and the musket team on his side was also a hawk-eyed and clever operation, and one shot did not hit the enemy, but all of them hit their own people!

Yang Zhaolong laughed and shouted, "Charge! Charge! The enemy is fleeing! Don't let them go! "The morale of the Banshu soldiers has soared! I couldn't help but rush up behind the war elephant with high fighting spirit!

Xie Chongjue's face was pale, he looked at the soldiers who were fleeing all around, and he had no intention of commanding, so he turned his horse's head and rushed towards the pontoon bridge on the Wujiang River!

The pontoon bridge is narrow and few, and nearly 10,000 troops can't escape in a hurry! So you squeeze me, I squeeze you, and the Banzhou soldiers killed again!

10,000 soldiers and horses came out of Surabaya, and by the time they returned to the other side, there were less than 3,000 men! Yang Zhaolong only relied on a few thousand people to kill 10,000 Surabaya soldiers without leaving a piece of armor! Xie Chongjue fled back to Surabaya in a hurry!

At this time, the Wujiang garrison did not know that their rear had been stolen, and they were sixty miles away from the place where the Surabaya soldiers crossed the river, but they did not get any news!

Yang Xian, the general who was ordered to garrison Wujiang, sent three hundred Yongshun soldiers to patrol as usual on this day, led by his son himself!

This is also the first time his son has been on the battlefield, so Yang Xian asked a few words, Yang Xian's son nodded impatiently and responded, and then left with three hundred people, Yang Xian may not know that this is actually the last time he and his son will meet!

Three hundred people patrolled the sentry under the leadership of Yang Xian's son, and when Yang Xian's son was bored thinking about what interesting things could be, the scout in front of him urgently sent news that more than 10,000 soldiers and horses were approaching us!

Yang Xian's son was immediately excited when he heard this, and then he was also shocked, 10,000 people! His 300 people are not enough to stuff people's teeth!

So he hurriedly ordered the three hundred Yongshun soldiers to hide on the side of the road, until the 10,000 people slowly approached, Yang Xian breathed a sigh of relief, these people were all wearing the military uniforms of the Shuixi Army.

So Yang Xian ordered 300 Yongshun soldiers to come out to meet the friendly army, and the more than 10,000 "Shuixi soldiers" were also shocked when they heard the sound of the sound on the flat ground, and immediately became vigilant, thinking that they had been ambushed.

At this time, Yang Xian's son walked out with a smile to say hello, and most of the Yongshun soldiers also walked out, and those Shuixi soldiers also slowly stepped forward when they saw this, and the leading generals couldn't help but laugh when they looked at the time they were about the same!

"Kill!"

The son of Yang Xian, who originally wanted to come forward to speak, was beheaded with a shocked face! When the three hundred Yongshun soldiers saw that the leader was killed by the friendly army, they were immediately shocked, and they couldn't help but stand in place!

The "Shuixi soldiers" didn't give them time to react, the whole army covered up and killed the past, and none of the 300 people who escaped were all killed neatly!

It is estimated that Yang Xian's son and those Yongshun soldiers don't know why the friendly army suddenly killed their own people until they died!

These people are actually just Banshu soldiers in Suisai military uniforms! And after killing these Yongshun soldiers, there was soon a Yongshun army in this army!

Their goal is also very simple, it is the base camp of the Yongshun Army!

Yang Xian didn't have a fortification at all when he saw that it was a friendly army and the Yongshun army, until he slowly walked in, and when Yang Xian saw that there was no son in the three hundred "Yongshun Army", he sighed in his heart!

Yang Xian's face was pale and he shouted in shock: "Enemy attack! "But in a hurry, where can you deal with it?

More than 10,000 state soldiers came to cover up in the big tent of the Chinese army! At this time, Tong Yuanzhen, who had just returned to the Chinese army, was embraced by his own soldiers and fled towards Wujiang before he had time to rest!

Tong Yuan's town was easily attacked by the Banzhou soldiers!

Dramatically, what happened to the Surabaya soldiers yesterday happened to Yongshun soldiers today! The pontoon bridge is narrow and few, and the 20,000 troops in Tongyuan Town can't pass at all!

Yang Xian stood up at this time and brandished his sword to command the crossing of the river, but he didn't notice it for a while, and was squeezed into the water by the rebels!

It is impossible for a person wearing armor to swim up if he falls into the water! So it didn't take long for Yang Xian to drown in the icy Wujiang River, just like most soldiers!

And those who didn't drown weren't much better! The Banzhou soldiers behind him rushed to kill, and there was no one to command at all, and no one wanted to stay behind the palace, and only less than 7,000 of the 20,000 people managed to run to the other side!

And just when Tong Yuanzhen breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Surabaya would soon get the news to answer, he didn't even wait for a hair!

The Banzhou army that followed followed pursued them unscrupulously and chased them until they reached the bottom of Surabaya City! At this time, by Tong Yuanzhen's side, there was only one general left, Yang Yinqiu, the inspector of the supervising army, and hundreds of Yongshun soldiers!

Xie Chongjue also hurriedly greeted him at this time, Tong Yuanzhen slapped him angrily and asked him why he didn't go out of the city to answer, and Xie Chongjue said the matter hesitantly.

When Tong Yuanzhen heard this, he suddenly felt that his eyes were dark and his legs were weak! The general hurriedly helped him!

Tong Yuanzhen looked at the three or two kittens under his hand, and only felt that he wanted to cry for a while! The army of 30,000 people is now in their own hands, and there is not even one out of ten! What shame does he have!

Tong Yuanzhen looked at the sunset in the distance with a dismayed face, and after ordering the soldiers to withdraw from Surabaya City, he took Xie Chongjue to Chongqing to plead guilty!

At this time, the news that Tong Yuan's town was almost completely wiped out reached Guiyang, Guiyang was shocked, and urgently prepared, all the people outside the city were hurriedly recalled to the city, for fear that Yang Zhaolong would advance into Wujiang and attack Guiyang directly!

A big hole suddenly appeared on the attacking side from the south! Guiyang is in a hurry!

Xue Qiu was furious, and after scolding Tong Yuanzhen for entering, he could only quickly wipe his ass for Tong Yuanzhen! So he hurriedly recruited Li Yingxiang, deputy commander of Songpan, to recruit troops on the spot, and integrated the remnants of Shuixi Yongshun Surabaya, replacing Tong Yuanzhen, and taking up the attack task of the Right Route Army!

At this time, Tong Yuanzhen, who had just arrived in Chongqing, pleaded guilty to Jia Jing with a shameful face, Jia Jing shook his head helplessly, and just said that he would ask for his guilt, and your crime would be investigated by the Ministry of War.

Saying that, Jia Jing didn't care about Tong Yuanzhen, walked out of the tent, personally killed Xie Chongjue with Shang Fang's sword, and ordered someone to pass on Xie Chongjue's head to the three armies, and if there are those who do not listen to the command, they will be guilty of the same crime!

Jia Jing knew that Tong Yuan's town was completely wiped out, but for a commander who controlled an army of 260,000, the destruction of the First Route Army was serious and serious, and it was not serious or serious, and he still had the entire overall situation to command, so it was impossible for him to put all his attention on Nansi Road, and this kind of thing could only be handed over to Xue Qian himself.

And what Jia Jing values more is actually the Northern Fourth Route Army, Liu Ting is actually the real main attacker, and Xue Qiu's Southern Fourth Route Army only played a role in assisting and encircling at this time.

And the Northern Fourth Route Army is not completely idle now......... Liu Ting had just captured the three caves of Nanmu, Goat, and Jiantai, and different voices immediately sounded in the court!

It can only be said that Yang Yinglong's money has not been spent in vain for so many years, and after seeing that he is in trouble, there are still people who lend a hand, and in recent days, the matter of Liu Ting's disobedience to the order has been brought out again............

And this time it's not so simple to take it lightly, the Ministry of War actually wants to put Liu Ting outside Jinling, to do the Nanjing Right Mansion Letter, what is the Nanjing Right Mansion Letter, the Five Armies Governor's Mansion Right Mansion Letter, the Five Armies Governor's Mansion, that is the place of the military attachΓ©, to do civilian work in the place of the military attachΓ©, basically say goodbye to power.........

What's more, it's still the book of Nanjing's right house! Just kidding, how many years has the small court of Jinling not been used? Is there anything else that the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies in Jinling does every day besides swatting flies and fighting mosquitoes?

The official position of Jinling itself is a place for those officials who have failed in political battles or are about to retire, Liu Ting is in the year of the fight, you asked him to go to Jinling to drink tea and read the newspaper?

What's more, at this time, Loushan Pass is close at hand, and breaking through Loushan Pass is equivalent to defeating half of Banzhou! This is when the war is tight, and you actually want to transfer him to Jinling to be an idle official? Who will be the pioneer for Lao Tzu? Am I personally in command?

Jia Jing is now busy negotiating this matter with the imperial court, so he doesn't care about Tong Yuanzhen's affairs at all, and this news, which is so good that he can't die, has actually reached Liu Ting's ears now!
