Chapter 243: Swinging the army south
The army of Xiangjun led by Xiao Yan and the army of Yunshan led by Li Ye cooperated with each other, and soon after the division was released, they won more with less, recovered the three cities of Western Wu, Southern Wu and Eastern Wu in Wu County, annihilated more than 2 million Japanese Kou and more than 1 million troops in Taizhou, known as the Battle of Wujiang in history, and was later written into the history books by Kunlun planet historians, and its strategy and tactics were summarized by historians as follows:
One is to strike at the west. Sun Jin, the governor of Yuezhou, sent 50,000 soldiers and horses to pretend to be armed, and made a big noise on the north bank of the Wujiang River, using tens of thousands of war horses to drag branches back and forth on the embankment on the north bank.
The second is surprise. The Yunying Heavenly Soldiers quickly attacked, and even burned more than 1 million sailors trained on the Wujiang River outside the cities of Western Wu, Southern Wu, and Eastern Wu!
The third is to rob while the fire is burning. The three cities are all the same, taking advantage of the fact that the Yunying Heavenly Soldiers are burning the water army and the Japanese are panicked and attacking the city, the Japanese are simply unable to organize an effective counterattack, and defeat is a foregone conclusion.
Fourth, the siege must be lacking. When Xiao Yan commanded the siege of the city, he left a gap for the enemy to avoid the enemy's stubborn resistance, and at the same time set up an ambush circle outside the gap, and achieved the perfect ending of annihilating the Japanese while the enemy was lax. This battle of Xiwu City is a perfect example of what the siege must lack. Nanwu Castle and Dongwu Castle ran away from the Japanese marshal Itagawa and Watanabe, although there were some regrets, but after Banchuan and Watanabe fled to Zhennan Pass, they were dismissed and escorted back to Washu State, and were ridiculed and ridiculed by the Wazhou people, and soon, Banchuan committed suicide, Watanabe died depressed, and there was no good end.
Fifth, it is necessary to achieve a quick solution. Within three days, they attacked three cities in a row, running thousands of miles, flowing through clouds and water, as fast as lightning, and a quick battle, so that the Japanese had no chance to breathe and counterattack.
In fact, there is another point that historians cannot write clearly and Xiao Yan values the most, that is, after this battle, he and Xiao Ye began to really have their own team, their own team, and their own people! This team was built on the baptism of blood and fire! Everyone trusted each other incomparably! And Xiao Yan established an incomparable prestige among them!
The army of Xiangjun rested outside the city of Nanwu for three days, and the king of Wujun, Nantian, was embarrassed to cross the river to see Xiao Yan and Li Ye, and sent the minister to bring soldiers and horses over, but he was really happy to send a month's military rations to the army of Xiangjun and the army of Yunshan, and began to do the aftermath work such as pacifying the people. At the same time, he also pretended to send his deputy commander Bai Shui to lead 300,000 troops, follow Xiao Nan and Li Ye to move south, and recover the lost territory of Wu County. This Bai Shui is a bloody person, who fights with Xiao Difficulty, is brave and tenacious, and is quite appreciated by Xiao Difficulty, and has become a capable cadre in Kunlun in the future.
After resting for three days, Xiao Nan set out from Nanwu City and Li Ye set out from Dongwu City, and the two armies waved south, with a total strength of 1.3 million, including 500,000 in the Yunshan Military Region, 500,000 in the Xiangjun Military Region, and 300,000 in the Baishui Military Region of the Wujun Military Region.
Like the autumn wind sweeping the leaves, along the way, the soldiers in the stronghold set up by the Japanese invaders fled one after another, and finally they all shrank to Zhennanguan, and all the lost land in the south of Wujiang in Wujiang County was recovered, and finally there was only one city left: Zhennanguan.
Along the way, because Yun Xiaoyan has three chapters of the law, he has no crime against the people, and he is deeply loved by the people of Wu County, and the people of Wu County raise their eyebrows, kill pigs and sheep, and want to pay the Shenzhou army, but they were politely declined by the soldiers, and some of the people of Wu County stopped doing it, and ran to say to Xiao Yan, saying that the pig was also killed, and the sheep was also slaughtered, and you didn't eat it, isn't it a waste? After that, the soldiers who had already killed the pigs and sheep still ate them, but they left the people with silver taels, enough for the people to buy more pigs and sheep.
As a result, the common people were embarrassed to kill pigs and sheep and ask the soldiers to eat, but one after another, some people came to the barracks, wanting to join the ranks of the small difficulties and fight against the Japanese invaders! At first, the people who came to sign up for the army just had the attitude of trying it out, so there were not many people, but later when they saw that the people who came here did not refuse, so they passed on ten, ten to hundreds, and many young and middle-aged people came one after another, and a new army of 300,000 was formed at once. Xiao Ku handed over this new army to Xiao Ku to train, and Xiao Ku and he trained the Yellow Banner soldiers in the Tanzhou Military Sub-district, with rich experience, arranging troops, and being extremely skilled. Xiao Yan also asked several generals familiar with Xiao Ku in the Tanzhou Military Division, such as Sun Hu, Bai Shan, Heishui, Qingyun, etc., to assist Xiao Ku, and at the same time asked Wu Wu to protect Xiao Ku, Wu Wu is the Holy Master of the Earth, and with him to protect Xiao Ku, Xiao Yan can be relieved! Wu Wu was already very fond of Xiao Ku, so he was naturally very happy and agreed, but he liked his Yun Ying very much, so he took that Yun Ying with him.
Xiao Yan asked Xiao Ku to train the new army in the rear first, don't rush to the front line, and wait for the formation training to be proficient, and then pull it up. Xiao Ku happily obeyed, but at the parting time, he said something that made Xiao Nan cry and laugh: "Fool genius! I'm going to train the new army, if you dare to carry me behind my back to do some kind of battlefield wedding, see if I don't pull your tendons, skin you, and throw you into Wujiang to feed Wang Ba!"
These words first came out of the mouth of Xia Fan, the owner of Fusang Island, and was borrowed by Xiao Nan, and then he was scolded by Xiao Kuyuan, Xiao Yan sighed, isn't this a cocoon for himself?
Zhennan Pass, the southernmost military town of Shenzhou Kingdom, a few months ago, the Japanese launched a surprise attack, the defenders of Zhennan Pass failed in a hurry, the governor was killed, and Zhennan Pass fell into the hands of the Japanese Kou.
Shenzhou and Taizhou are bounded by the Nanshan Mountains of continuous thousands of miles, although Nanshan is not as high as the Yunshan Mountains, but it is also extremely difficult to cross, because it is located in the tropics, the jungle is dense, there are countless poisonous snakes and beasts, and there are mosquitoes and other bites, entering the depths of Nanshan, it is difficult to come back alive. And the only passage between the two countries is Zhennan Pass!
Zhennan Pass guards the traffic throat between Shenzhou and Taizhou, because it is backed by the steep Nanshan, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Xiao Yan and Li Ye led the army all the way south, and finally fought until Zhennan Pass, where the two armies converged and surrounded Zhennan Guanshan, but they were not in a hurry to attack the city.
On this day, Xiao Yan was about to convene a military meeting of the ten governors of the Xiang County Army to discuss how to attack Zhennan Pass, but Xiao Ku, who was training the new army in the rear, ran back.
Xiao Yan was surprised and asked Xiao Ku: "Why are you taking leave?"
Xiao Ku: "I won't tell you." You'll know when you get back. ”
Xiao Yan: "How long will it take?"
Xiao Ku: "At least three or five days, more than six or seven days." ”
Xiao Yan said to Liu Hai: "You personally take someone to accompany the bitter girl on a trip and call the worry-free master." ”
Liu Hai agreed and hurriedly went to order all the people, Xiao Ku took out a bag of things from his pocket and stuffed it into Xiao Nan's hand, turned around and left.
Xiao Nan spread out his palm to see what Xiao Kusai gave him, and when he opened it, it was the glutinous rice baba that Xiao Nan had eaten since he was a child. Small difficulties and big joys, eat when you open your mouth, sweet and soft, fragrant and delicious. Xiao Yan shouted at Xiao Ku's back: "It's delicious!
Xiao Ku secretly had fun, but he didn't look back and said, "Think beautiful!"
