298 Pursuit 1
There are so many Menghu cavalry, of course, it is impossible to gather a hedgehog, Batusu divided all the main cavalry forces into three parts, Zhuo Ligetu, the commander of the cowardly Xue army, led 120,000 cowardly Xue troops in front, Batusu led 50,000 cowardly Xue troops 150,000 cavalry on the left, cowardly Xue army deputy general Li Yan led 200,000 cavalry on the right, and the rest of the cavalry was divided into thousands to 10,000 small troops to move around the periphery to guard and defend the battle, and the finished glyph retreated from the line from Enzhou to Handan to the direction of Yizhou and Baozhou, Batusu did not choose the direction of Zhendingfu, In that direction, there will definitely be sniper from the Liaodong troops heading south.
And the southernmost daimyo's mansion of more than 100,000 can only be given up as bait, after such a long confrontation in Hebei, where the main forces of the two sides are, how many people there are, it has long been clear, skirmishes and ranger battles happen every day, if you want to wait for them, the final result is likely to be that you can't go.
Li Chongshan moved, the first thing to find out that the situation was wrong was Liu Bingyun, although the foot soldiers besieging the city were still there, but there had been no siege for several days, Liu Bingyun immediately became ruthless, and asked Liu Hesheng to hand over the defense of Handan to Shen Zhixing, organized more than 20,000 war horses, risked his life to test the weak link of the siege, and actually really rushed out.
Liu Bingyun was anxious, naturally he would not pursue Li Chongshan, that is, to send him to death, but to take Liu Hesheng to Wu'an, he had to see His Royal Highness to rest assured.
When he arrived in Wu'an County, there was no one left, except for the troops defending the city, the last group of pursuing Jinning Army foot soldiers had just ridden their horses and were ready to go north, Liu Bingyun hurriedly grabbed the leading Xing Fengchi and asked His Highness where he went, and the answer was expected by Liu Bingyun.
Lin Jianyue calculated the time and distance, but he and Liu Jiahao seemed to have a heart, he knew that Liu Jiahao would definitely lead the army south, and it was estimated that Liu Jiahao should have gone south to attack Baozhou and Xiongzhou when he got the news.
So where should Li Chongshan be blocked? The Hebei Plain is so vast, Li Chongshan really wants to run, he absolutely can't block it all, studied the map for a long time, and found that no matter how Li Chongshan runs, he can't get around Baozhou and Xiongzhou, and he must go out of Juyongguan and return to the grassland.
If this is the case, Liu Jiahao will definitely meet Li Chongshan, Liu Jiahao alone will never be able to defeat Li Chongshan, and it is not possible to defend the city, and people will ignore you at all.
Lin Jianyue immediately decided that Sun Zhengyi would chase them behind their buttocks, and he would lead the 30,000 forward battalions and the 80,000 cavalry of the Jinning Army of Fuyang to go directly north along the line of Zhending Mansion in Xingzhou and join Liu Jiahao, and he would fight a decisive battle with Li Chongshan in the field in the area between Zhending Mansion and Baozhou.
There are still risks, what if Li Chongshan sets up a siege near Zhending Mansion and waits for him? But Lin Jianyue can't take care of it, his stand-in is still hanging around in Handan! Li Chongshan didn't have the heart and desire to fight the Jinning army near Taihang Mountain, not to mention that he was all cavalry, and he could run if he really encountered it, and there was the main infantry force of the Jinning army behind him.
As soon as Liu Bingyun heard this, he didn't say a word, and directly selected thousands of strong horses with Liu Hesheng to go north to continue chasing Lin Jianyue desperately, and the troops were directly thrown to Xing Fengchi, asking him to rush directly to the vicinity of Zhending Mansion to meet him regardless of everything.
The hundreds of thousands of cavalry of the Daimyo Mansion were hesitant from top to bottom, they already knew that the main force of the Guards who were confronting them had left Puyang City and crossed the river north from the east of the Daimyo Mansion, as if they did not exist, what did this mean? There is only one possibility, they went to chase His Majesty, and His Majesty retreated north.
What to do on your own? The generals who led the army did not know what to do, no one took care of themselves, and no one informed them. In the southernmost salient, he was clearly abandoned. South to the Central Plains? In the end, he was sent to death, and he knew that there was a Long Jie army on the side of the Yellow River. Run away? There were people in front of him, left and right, and the largest number of Xinyang troops was in the north, and he didn't know which direction to run.
In the end, he decided to attack his old rival Guards with the whole army, and delay the enemy's pursuit for a while, which can be regarded as the last force for His Majesty! What if you win?
Seeing the overwhelming arrival of the cavalry of the Daimyo's Mansion, Hao Tianfeng had already prepared, but he was afraid that if you didn't come, it would cause a lot of trouble and hidden dangers.
Hao Tianfeng and Li Fei gave death orders to all the subordinates under his command, and they had no time to take care of the prisoners, so naturally they would not leave the prisoners, so they could only be ruthless at this time.
The infantry defense phalanx of the Guards can be regarded as the strongest in the world, how can they rush under panic, the Rao cavalry and the cavalry of the Guards are more than twice as large as the Hu people, and the morale of the army is impossible to talk about the same day, and there is only endless killing waiting for them.
The war ended quickly, leaving nearly 200,000 corpses on the battlefield, countless alive and wounded war horses scurrying around, not even a single living person, stumps and broken arms make people have boundless fear, but this is war, the most terrible social behavior of human beings.
Time was delayed for a day, Hao Tianfeng and Li Fei did not want to chase Sun Zhengyi, Sun Zhengyi relied on his strong military strength, and he had already gone to chase Li Chongshan alone, Hao Tianfeng was afraid that Li Chongshan would kill him, so he didn't even clean the battlefield, and completely handed it over to Long Jiejun, who was constantly crossing the river, and now there was no need to defend.
Lin Jianyue and Li Chongshan rushed north on the two parallel lines, in fact, this is the opportunity that Li Chongshan has been waiting for for a long time in the Hebei War, but it is a pity that no matter whether it is Batusu or Li Chongshan, he no longer has the original fighting spirit and strength.
Now it can be said that the Hebei Plain is full of people, scouts and rangers are intertwined, Liu Jiahao has occupied Baozhou, and immediately went out to search for Li Chongshan's main position, and at the same time he also received the news that Lin Jianyue, who was urgently sent by the enemy intelligence department, has also gone north.
Just near Baozhou, the main force of Li Chongshan is delayed? Attract Li Chongshan to the vicinity of Tang County, Wangdu County? Is Your Highness going to ...... again?
Li Chongshan also rode on a horse and moved with the army of the cowardly Xue army, except for the nine white silk symbols of power, there were many things discarded, the golden tent frame was discarded, and he had not suffered these hardships since he was born, but at this time Li Chongshan did not care.
Even the Menghu cavalry could not afford not to rest, on the north bank of the Lu River north of Xindu County, Yizhou, in the small tent set up for him by his subordinates, Li Chongshan sat with Batusu and Zhuo Ligetu to discuss the military situation.
"According to the scout's report, to the west of us, there is a cavalry unit of more than 100,000 marching north with us, which should be Lin Jianyue's sniper unit, and the main force should be the Jinning army in Hedong. In the direction of Baozhou to the north, the forward troops have found a large force of cavalry, and it seems that the city of Baozhou has fallen into the hands of the enemy. Your Majesty, you must defeat one of them quickly in order to make it north safely. ”
Li Chongshan frowned and said: "It only adds up to more than 200,000, how can they stop it?" It's just my cowardly Xue Jun is enough. But how could Lin Jianyue react so quickly? He was surrounded in Handan, and after receiving the message, it would take more than ten days to arrange it! ”
Batusu smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, I have long suspected that Lin Jianyue in Handan City is not me, especially after besieging Handan, Sun Zhengyi and these people are so stable and very abnormal, I showed obvious flaws, but I was still unmoved." ”
"This is impossible, the Eagle Catcher will not be wrong about this information, and I have repeatedly confirmed it before I go south. Why didn't Marshal Ba tell me earlier? Forget it, there's no point in talking about this now, the key is what to do next! ”
Without clear evidence, how dare Batusu talk nonsense? Especially at the critical time of the confrontation, it will greatly affect Li Chongshan's decision and the morale of the army.
Lin Jianyue is really ruthless! Not to mention the temper of His Majesty, he also emptied the entire city, so that the spies who had worked so hard to ambush were useless.
