Chapter 412: Thirty-Seven Divisions of Eastern Yunnan
However, when the two armies came together, the respective strengths of the two armies were fully displayed.
"What! There were 100,000 people in the Song army! ”
When Gao Sheng'an saw the dense Song army and the Southwest Yi tribes, he immediately stayed there.
According to the original intelligence, the Song army only had 50,000 rabble, and now in a short period of time, the number of this rabble has directly doubled, and they are all elite southwest Yi Qingzhuang.
These southwestern Yi young people lived in the poor mountains and bad waters, and they practiced their skills, and under the connivance of the Song army, they plundered Dali villages and tasted blood.
"100,000 people!"
A group of Dali soldiers were cowardly before fighting, and the Song army and the Southwest Yi coalition army surrounded them in a fan shape, causing great psychological pressure on the Dali army.
And when the southwest Yi Qingzhuang saw that they had an advantage in numbers, they suddenly felt relieved, as Fan Zheng said, their winning rate in this battle increased greatly.
Although the Song army and a group of southwestern Yi are a rabble, but Dali has been peaceful for a hundred years, and the military equipment has long been abandoned, although the Gao family has led troops to quell the Yang rebellion, but the real elite has long been transferred to Dali, and now the guards of Shanxian Mansion are also just a group of rabble!
"Beat the drums, the army presses down!"
Seeing this, Fan Zheng waved his big hand.
Since they are all rookies pecking each other, the final fight can only be the number of people! The Song army had an advantage in numbers, so it was natural to fight quickly.
Gao Sheng'an saw Song Junzhu attacking, took a deep breath, suppressed the fear in his heart and said: "Everyone, Shanxian Mansion is behind us, we have no way to retreat, Dali will win this battle!" ”
Gao Sheng'an naturally knew the current situation of the Dali army, boosted morale at the moment, and decided to fight against the water!
"Dali will win, Dali will win!"
The morale of the 40,000 Dali soldiers suddenly increased greatly, and they killed the rabble.
"Divine Arm Crossbow!"
Seeing this, Yang Bangyi couldn't help sneering, and with a wave of his big hand, the black-pressed divine arm crossbow arrows flew towards the Dali army.
On the battlefield, the courage of blood is naturally very important, but the divine weapon is the magic weapon that must win, and the divine arm crossbow is the strongest weapon of the Song army to defeat the enemy, and it has repeatedly made achievements.
"Whoosh!" Numerous crossbow arrows flew out.
The attack power of the divine arm crossbow is overwhelming, the power is huge, it easily penetrates the armor of the Dali soldiers, causing huge losses to the Dali soldiers, and in an instant, many Dali soldiers have fallen under the arrows of the divine arm crossbow.
However, even if the power of the Divine Arm Crossbow is unparalleled, it still can't stop the footsteps of the Dali soldiers, and after resisting the Divine Arm Crossbow, what is followed is the bows and arrows of a group of Southwest Yi tribes.
Although the power of the bow and arrow is weak, it is overwhelming in number, and it also brings many casualties to the defenders of Dali.
"Kill!"
Soon the two armies handed over, and the Dali soldiers who fought against the tide were extremely brave and fought bravely, and the various departments of the Southwest Yi were indeed a rabble, and soon, they fell into a disadvantage, and the four major families hurriedly helped each other, which was able to stabilize the war.
"The Song army attacked, shaking the sky and thundering!"
Seeing this, Yang Bangyi ordered again.
In an instant, the sky-shattering thunders emitting thick smoke flew towards the dense Dali army.
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”
The continuous explosions exploded in the dense Dali army, causing heavy casualties to the Dali army, especially the huge sound of the earth-shaking thunder, which caused a huge panic in the Dali army.
A group of Southwest Yi tribes took the opportunity to counterattack and finally resisted the attack of the Dali army.
"Earthquake Thunder!"
Gao Sheng'an heard such a loud noise, and couldn't help but drip blood in his heart, the power of the gunpowder weapons of the Great Song Dynasty is unparalleled, it is said that this is already the second generation of earth-shaking thunder, and Dali has been fighting more than once in these years, not even the first generation of earth-shaking thunder.
The crushing of weapons suddenly greatly reduced the morale of the Dali army, and Fan Zheng, who had been observing the battlefield with a telescope, snorted coldly, and his flesh and blood body shook the sky and thunder, and the outcome could be imagined.
"Earthquake thunder open the way! The forbidden army attacked and chiseled through the Dali army! Fan Zheng immediately ordered.
Now that the Song army has already gained an advantage with the Heaven-Shaking Thunder, it will continue to expand this advantage in one go.
At the moment, a large number of elite forbidden troops attacked, wearing heavy armor and fully armed, the forbidden army was naturally not comparable to the rabble of the Southwest Yi, not to mention the help of the earth-shattering thunder.
With the sound of explosions, the Great Song Dynasty Forbidden Army was like a bamboo, the invulnerable cold forging armor, the unparalleled earth-shaking thunder, the invincible heroic posture of the Great Song Dynasty Forbidden Army reappeared, and soon tore a hole in the position of the Dali Army.
A large number of Dali troops have come from sources and want to plug this opening, but under the bombardment of the earth-shaking thunder, the efforts of the Dali army have been to no avail, and the position of the Dali army has been torn open and the opening is getting bigger and bigger.
"Cavalry attack!"
Seeing this, Gao Sheng'an was in a hurry and immediately sent his ace cavalry.
Although Dali is located in the southwest, it is not without cavalry, the production of Yunnan horses is quite good, every year for the Song Dynasty to import a lot of horses, but, in recent years, the Song Dynasty has the method of artificial insemination, the breeding is the best war horse, has long looked down on the short Yunnan horse.
"You're the one you're waiting for!"
Seeing this, Yang Bangyi waved his hand, and thousands of elite Great Song cavalry came out.
In order to execute the plan of cutting the belly as quickly as possible, and rush to the southwest as soon as possible, all the forbidden troops who came this time are cavalry, and cavalry is their old business!
"Iron Float!"
Seeing the cavalry of the Song army led by him, Gao Sheng'an's eyes were suddenly split, he didn't expect that the evil doctor Fan Zheng would actually bring the most elite Iron Floating Tu of the Song army, and there were many of them.
Tiefutu became famous in the battle against the Qingtang Dynasty and made great achievements, but the Song army only had 10,000 forbidden troops in this battle, of which there were as many as 2,000 Tiefutu, and this kind of combat power was probably a luxury in any army.
Fan Zheng snorted coldly in his heart, he is known as an evil doctor, he has always loved evil prescriptions, it does not mean that he loves adventure, once the Great Song Dynasty was weak, he risked his life to enter Pingxia City is already the limit, now the Great Song Dynasty is strong, he controls the weapons prison, is responsible for forging cold forging armor and manufacturing gunpowder weapons, naturally he will not treat himself badly.
Although he only brought 10,000 cavalry, the combat power of them was strong enough to be fearless of any opponent, which was also the confidence for him to dare to carry out the plan of cutting off his belly.
"Kill!"
As soon as the two cavalry forces came into contact, the victory and defeat were already divided.
Under the impact of the Iron Floating Tu, the Dali cavalry, riding a short Dian horse and backward equipment, was directly defeated.
Gao Sheng'an's heart suddenly turned to ashes when he saw this, and he confidently led his troops to the battle, ready to defeat this group of rabble in one fell swoop, capture the evil doctor Fan Zheng, and make immortal achievements.
However, the Dali army was indeed high in morale and brave in battle, but under the pressure of the powerful weapons of the Song army, the courage of blood and blood seemed a little insignificant.
When Yang Changchun and the other four major families saw this moment, they couldn't help but feel awe-inspiring in their hearts, they were the first to know the strength of the Song army, and they couldn't help but be deeply shocked, otherwise they wouldn't follow Fan Zheng wholeheartedly.
"Attack immediately, the Banzhou Yang clan must make the first contribution." Yang Changchun immediately stopped hiding his strength, and ordered immediately.
In an instant, a large number of Yang disciples rushed into the battlefield and strangled the Dali army.
The three major families also involuntarily increased their attacks, and other Southwest Yi tribes also followed suit and attacked the Dali army.
They are indeed a rabble, but the biggest advantage of the rabble is that they can fight a good battle, now that the Song army has the advantage, the balance of victory begins to tilt in favor of the Great Song Dynasty, once these Dali soldiers are defeated, the richest Shanxian Mansion will be taken by them, not to mention the huge reward of the evil doctor Fan Zheng.
Stimulated by huge interests, the various departments of Southwest Yi suddenly turned red and besieged and killed the Dali soldiers one after another.
"Kill!"
When the last stubborn Dali soldier in front of him fell, the Great Song Forbidden Army finally chiseled through the entire battlefield, and completely divided the Dali soldiers into two parts to divide and surround them.
And Song Jun tacitly stopped using the earth-shaking thunder, although the power of the earth-shaking thunder is unparalleled, but it is a consumable, with one less one, it is extremely difficult to replenish.
And the Song army didn't have the idea of wanting to consume the Southwest Yi tribes, how could there be so many good things in this world, the Southwest Yi tribes wanted to get rich, and they didn't want to work hard?
Of course, the Song army was not idle, although he did not use the earth-shaking thunder, he drew out his horizontal knife and killed the Dali army, you must know that the reward of the evil doctor Fan Zheng is for all soldiers, including the Song army.
"Kill!"
On the battlefield, the advantage of the Song army is getting bigger and bigger, and the various departments of the Southwest Yi are becoming more and more crazy, and everyone knows that as long as they can make contributions in this battle, they can obtain greater benefits in Shanxian Mansion and even in the future plunder.
Now the soldiers of Dali are not elite after all, after the courage of blood and qi has passed, the fear in their hearts began to amplify infinitely, but in order to defend Shanxian Mansion, all the soldiers fought to the death.
Gao Sheng'an looked at all this unwillingly, the soldiers of Dali were not brave in battle, but in terms of numbers and weapons, the gap between the soldiers of Dali and the Song army was too big.
"Fu Yin, retreat! If we don't leave, I'm afraid we won't be able to leave! ”
Seeing that the Dali cavalry was about to be lost under the impact of the Iron Floating Massacre, a group of guards were frightened and persuaded Gao Sheng'an one after another.
"But ............."
Gao Sheng'an looked at the Dali soldiers who were still fighting for Shanxian Mansion and hesitated.
"Lord Fu Yin, the Song people have a saying, keep the green mountains and are not afraid of no firewood, we still have the city of Shanxian Mansion to defend, the various departments of the Southwest Yi burn and loot, the people of Shanyan Mansion will suffer, and the adults can take the opportunity to move the people around the city of Shanyan Mansion to the city, and they can't hold the city of Shanxian Mansion." A pro-soldier said urgently.
Gao Sheng'an is their backer, they are responsible for the guard, once Gao Sheng'an dies here, then they will not escape their responsibility.
"Retreat immediately!"
Gao Sheng'an finally failed to defeat the fear in his heart and ordered a retreat, he fooled the Dali soldiers to die for Shanxian Mansion, but he was a high-ranking Gao family's disciple, how could he die in vain like these lowly soldiers.
"Fu Yin has escaped!"
Gao Sheng'an's retreat became the last straw that crushed the Dali soldiers, and the Dali soldiers gradually collapsed and began to flee in large numbers.
"Kill!"
Seeing the great victory of the Song army, all the departments of the Southwest Yi beat the water dogs one after another, and kept chasing the Dali rout.
Even the Song army did not let go of this great opportunity to make meritorious contributions, and chased and killed one after another, and there was a sound of fighting everywhere.
The Song army pursued and killed for dozens of miles, and Fan Zhengfang withdrew his troops.
Of course, there are also meritorious Southwest Yi tribes who continue to chase and kill, and Fan Zheng doesn't care at all, if these Southwest Yi tribes make war exploits again, it will naturally be better, if they are unfortunately killed, they can only blame their bad lives.
"Big win! Our army won a great victory, and 30,000 Dali soldiers were killed in this battle, and only 10,000 Dali remnants escaped! ”
Yang Bangyi returned victoriously, and he couldn't help himself with excitement.
"Thirty thousand!"
Fan Zheng couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, 30,000 Dali soldiers, it means that he has to pay 150,000 yuan.
However, Fan Zhengque knew that the money was well spent, and the Dali army was extremely tenacious in this battle, if it was the previous 50,000 rabble, even if the Song army was well-equipped, the final victory over the Dali army would be a heavy loss.
And Fan Zheng used his interests to attract the various ministries of Southwest Yi, and directly brought the number of this rabble to 100,000, which eventually caused a qualitative change.
Although the Song army was responsible for attacking the fortifications, it was well-equipped, and there were even earth-shattering thunderbolts to open the way, and the casualties were minimal, but they destroyed the strongest resistance force in Shanxian Prefecture.
"Pass the order, clean up the battlefield, and reward the three armies!" Fan Zheng waved his hand.
Fan Zheng immediately ordered to clean up the battlefield and reward the three armies, he was born as a doctor, so he naturally knew that the body must be buried, otherwise there would be a plague in Dali.
After the soldiers cleaned up the battlefield, Fan Zheng issued rewards to all clans, Fan Zheng naturally did not carry so much wealth, all the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty were recorded in the merit book, and the major families paid with flying money, as for some rangers, only the money of Shicheng was more than enough.
"After this battle, the strategy of cutting the belly will really shine."
Fan Zheng also breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly felt relaxed.
After this battle, not only did Shanxian Mansion have no strength to resist the Great Song Dynasty, but the entire Dali also has no decent strength in the east to resist the Song army.
Not to mention that after this battle, these southwestern Yi young people have changed from rabble to bandits, and they are also a powerful force.
"The general can't be careless, there is still a force in eastern Yunnan that should not be underestimated, and that is the thirty-seven departments in eastern Yunnan!"
Yang Bangyi reminded.
Before the Song army set out on the expedition, it naturally had a full exploration of the forces around Dali, and naturally knew that in addition to the Gao family, there was also a force to be reckoned with around Shanxian Mansion, that is, the 37 departments of eastern Yunnan.
Fan Zheng smiled slightly and said confidently: "Don't worry, this official has his own considerations!" ”
"General Qiyu, the leader of the thirty-seven Momi tribes in eastern Yunnan, Meng Ti asks to see!" The war had just ended, and the patriarch of the Luo clan hurriedly reported to Fan Zhengyu.
"Moyabe!"
Yang Bangyi couldn't help but be shocked, this Momi Department was one of the thirty-seven departments in eastern Yunnan, he didn't expect that Fan Zheng had already made contact with the thirty-seven departments in eastern Yunnan.
"Please!"
Fan Zheng Zhizhu is holding the road.
Luo's family is adjacent to Dali, and he is familiar with the Momi Department, Fan Zheng is about to attack Dali, how can he not pay attention to the 37 departments in eastern Yunnan.
The reason why he focused on the Momi Department of the 37th Department of Eastern Yunnan was that in addition to his familiarity with the Luo clan, the more important thing was that the Momi Department had a grudge against the Gao clan.
