Chapter 186: The Aggrieved General Zhao

Many leaders of Shaohua Mountain have become a group performer, and they have become addicted to using stratagems. admired Wang Jin, the owner of his own village, even more, he really won a decisive victory thousands of miles away in his strategy, and wiped out the Western Route Army with only one chain.

And for the ruler of Yan'an Mansion, he was very disdainful. thinks that this guy is an indecisive straw bale that relies on the shade of his ancestors.

Gao Jian, Gao Jian, phew, just this bear-like is still high.

Everyone scolded and scolded, but they still resolutely carried out their mission and eliminated the remnants of the enemy. Gao Jian led the remnants of the defeated army to flee, and behind him, those entangled or besieged forbidden troops faced an enemy army several times their size, and they had to surrender in order to save their lives. The hot-blooded people resisted stubbornly, and they were strangled and killed.

The encirclement and suppression battles went very smoothly, and only the 2,000 cavalry on the east bank scattered and fled for a while. However, very few escaped under the siege and interception.

In this battle, the 8,000 forbidden troops were about 1,000 in addition to deliberately letting go and getting lost. The rest were left behind, more than two thousand died, and the rest were taken prisoner. One hundred and eighty people also fell in Shaohua Mountain, and more than 1,000 were injured.

This is war, either you die or I die!

Wang Jin was not tolerated by the imperial court, and at this time, kindness was cruel to himself.

Capture the prisoners and count the casualties. It is also a link to happily clean up the battlefield and pack up the loot. Not to mention the iron armor and strong bows and crossbows contributed by the forbidden army, the military materials such as arrows and iron pieces were piled up. Among them, there are 20 heavy equipment stone throwing machines, 12 bed crossbows, more than 1,000 war horses, and more than 30 ships with more than 400 materials......

Sure enough, only by winning the battle and capturing it is the way to quickly obtain equipment.

The Shaohua Mountain team was engulfed with prisoners and transports

Zi, jubilant back to the cottage.

The news of the Western Route Army being ambushed and almost all of its annihilation spread.

"Gao Jian's army was defeated by an ambush?" Yao Pingzhong, the leading general of the Northern Route Army, was a little disdainful when he was taken aback, and even a sneer appeared on his face.

As a famous general in the Song Dynasty, his uncle Yao Gu was the pillar of the Western Army, and he was in the prime of life.

Yao Gu, who is only in his early twenties, is an outstanding young talent of the Yao family, this time the imperial court urgently ordered the transfer of troops, and the old guys of the breeding family clipped their tails and did not respond. It was just cheap, and he led the team to suppress the bandits and make meritorious contributions. Get the support of your uncle and even your family, and experience and increase your qualifications.

Compared with the vigorous vitality of the young generals, the Southern Route Army was a little crotched when they heard the news. It was originally composed of coalition forces from various states, and some officers had different views and opinions, and some were even a little timid, like a plate of scattered sand.

In the end, it was a black-faced officer in his thirties who stepped forward to preside over the overall situation: "Hmph, look at your little bit of talent? Maybe it's us next time. We must learn a lesson, and those who disturb the morale of the army will be killed......"

This person's name is Li Ming, if Wang Jin was present, he would know that this guy was Li Ming, one of the future supervisors of the Water Margin.

It's just that at present, the officials in the border army are waiting for Yu, and the 3,000 people under his command are all elite of the border army. He was an officer urgently transferred from the Privy Council and was currently transferred to the Northern Expeditionary Army. He is a man with rich combat experience and soldiers in his hands. The words were very weighty, and they immediately shocked everyone.

Under the command of this border general,

Each state is responsible for a region. It is not allowed to run around, and you must be on 12 points of mental vigilance. If something goes wrong, he will take responsibility for himself, disobey the military order and pull his hips, and punish him severely.

At the same time, fast horses were sent to get in touch with the northern army......

……

The Western Route Army was solved, and the imperial court still had two large armies pressing the border. Wang Jin is not a person who sits idly by, and wants to repeat his old tricks to ambush a wave on the road. Personally lead a reconnaissance team to observe the enemy situation and try to use the terrain to ambush. However, they found that the army that came from the north was quite methodical, steady and steady, and could not start at all, whether it was marching or camping.

Sometimes he deliberately shows his flaws, but he wants to wait for Shaohua Mountain to rob the camp. Although the layout is a little rusty and can be seen through at a glance, it is full of killing machines, and the camping is also very particular, indicating that the generals are not straw bags.

The Western Army is worthy of being the backbone of the Northern Song Dynasty court, holding up half of the sky. Since its establishment, it has fought fiercely with the Tangut people for nearly a hundred years, and can be called the elite of a hundred battles. Whether it is actual combat skills or troop arrangement, or the degree of sophistication, as well as the discipline of the soldiers, it is by no means comparable to the forbidden army.

It's not just the Western Army, it's the Forbidden Army that came from the south. Obviously, the lesson of the last time has been learned, and perhaps the news of the rout of the Western Army may be obtained. Become more cautious, pass through steep roads, forests and other places to be carefully scouted. Strive to advance steadily, and do not give Shaohuashan a chance to ambush strongmen.

If the opponent is evenly matched or his own foundation is solid, Wang Jin is confident that he will go head-to-head with any army of the way, and even find a flaw in the opponent and defeat it in one fell swoop. It's a pity that the current foundation is weak, and it can't be consumed with the imperial court.

Therefore, after this battle, I will play a golden cicada to shed its shell and survive for a while

Space. I really can't be arrogant anymore, otherwise I will definitely be wiped out.

But you can't be afraid when you come, the north is more than 1,000 miles away from Tokyo, and the fire can't burn at the feet of the Son of Heaven. This battle must shock the eyes of the world!

The two armies, one in the south and one in the north, showed a tendency of flanking attack, and gradually advanced towards Huazhou City. Even if Wang Jin gave up the plan to ambush, the two armies were very cautious to prevent a sneak attack on Shaohua Mountain, and the marching speed was not fast.

Shaohua Mountain retreated to the cottage and prepared to defend to the death.

And in Shaanzhou Toad Mountain, the defense battle started first.

"Brothers, rush me!" Zhao Tan shouted hysterically.

It is said that General Zhao Tan Zhao has had a bad time recently, and he finally escaped from the tiger's den and returned to Bianliang City, Tokyo, and felt that the atmosphere was not right. I always feel like I'm being watched by strange eyes but I can't notice it.

Taiwei Gao Yu didn't want to see himself and didn't say anything, even Enxiang Tongguan's eyes were a little weird, seeing himself looking up and down, let himself say that if he said the situation that day, how to escape from the mountain, in exchange for a sentence that was a lot fatter.

Although he didn't say anything else, although he didn't punish him, Zhao Tan felt like he had fallen out of favor, and the eyes of the people around him looked at him strangely, containing emotions such as doubt, speculation and distrust.

Later, I learned from the officers with whom I had a good relationship. It turned out that the captured imperial city forbidden army was redeemed one after another, and the self-compilation said that he had taken refuge in Toad Mountain, and he didn't have to do coolies, anyway, he watched them work tirelessly, eating and drinking, like VIPs, like a cottage leader......

It is said that Zhao Tan is a wolf, and he has lived up to the emperor's expectations.

It made this big man of the Western Army extremely uncomfortable

This strange atmosphere drove him crazy. He never bowed to the strongman, never said a word that should not be said. But in exchange for this result, he felt aggrieved and wanted to cry.

I also want to get a chance to prove myself!

During the Northern Expedition to Shaohua Mountain, Zhao Tan knelt in front of Enxiang Tongguan and begged to get a chance. Although the chief general is Wu Bingyi, an officer who was transferred from the border, he is only an adjutant general and does not even have the right to command, but he is very happy.

Come to Toad Mountain again, in front of Toad Village!

It's a place with a terrible name and a very hateful place.

Zhao Tan's eyes were moist and his eyes were red, not only told him what he had learned on the mountain, but also analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of the terrain of Toad Mountain, suggesting that it was best to outwit rather than attack.

It's just that a series of tactics to lure the enemy did not work in the slightest. The 5,000 forbidden army can't surround the mountain, and it's not realistic to trap the other party to death.

Several days passed, and in the end they could only attack.

"General Zhao, I'll give you 500 people and take the mountain." Wu Bingyi directly assigned the task, Zhao Tan gritted his teeth and stared, and led the team to attack Toad Mountain.
