Northward Attack on the Heavenly Blessing Pass (I) (185)

Dajin State dispatched troops, not for a moment to be idle step by step, Xuzhou soldiers cautiously step by step, this matter has already spread to the Lin'an small court, the saint is also a large number of troops and horses, waiting for the opportunity to come out, but the left and right are for the war or peace and fight to break the head, for a long time indecisive.

Ren Jiabao saw that the county lord was in a panic without saying goodbye. The general village and the right village all sent people to Yangzhou to investigate. Longqiuzhuang, according to Hongxuan, everyone came to comfort him, and Hongxiu stayed in the General's Mansion and never went back. All businessmen from all sides showed their magic powers to investigate, but he Ren Tianqi lay quietly in the General's Mansion, recuperating from his injuries, summoning people from all walks of life from time to time to talk and laugh.

On the sixth day after the county lord crossed the river to the north, Wanyan Haoming personally marched and led the Jin soldiers to launch a fierce attack on the Xuzhou soldiers.

In the middle of the night, 20,000 infantry silently surrounded the small city of Sizhou. As soon as the morning dawned, the golden soldiers kept beating drums, but they did not immediately attack the city. The 20,000 soldiers and horses of Suzhou were dispatched to the east and south to attack the Huai River Bridge.

Black Eagle Wei Yingqian led the whole army to the north, and ordered Shaur to lead 10,000 infantry troops to cross the bridge and go north for 20 miles to settle down to resist the attack of Suzhou soldiers;

ordered Tuo Lin Ke to lead 5,000 light armor troops to cross the river west to reinforce Sizhou, after going out for 20 miles, 500 troops every 10 li, not to stand on the front can not be lightly out, the camp is endless;

It also brought 3,000 infantry troops, and 6,000 horse troops were stationed north of the bridgehead to meet both sides.

As a result, the two sides attacked and confronted each other for a day, and there was no major progress. The Xuzhou soldiers suffered heavy casualties, and the Jin soldiers did not attack with all their might, it was just a temptation, after all, the prestige of the Xuzhou soldiers was Zhentian.

At night, there is no moon, sultry, gloomy and windy, and I want rain.

A huge army of horses, about 30,000 men, silently crossed the bridge to the north and went straight to Pengcheng.

The army did not have a single flag, but all men were drawn to the wood, horses were bells, swords were sheathed, spears were wrapped around cloth, and everything that could make a sound was properly disposed of. A caravan of 30,000 horses galloped away in the dust. The one who opened the road before was the 5,000 Mongolian army of Xuzhou, followed by 5,000 tiger guards, 5,000 archers, and the last 10,000 light and heavy armored horse army.

Ren Tianqi sat upright on the horse, Tianbao Tian Muzuo and the two people in front of him, Lu Qian, a little red, Tang Shengzhi, Bai Ying Wei Yingkun and other generals accompanied him. Everyone was speechless, urging the horses to gallop.

It turned out that Ren Tianqi and Yingguiquan had a plan after careful deliberation that day, and ordered Gong Ming to pretend to stay in the General's Mansion to deal with the military and political affairs of the general world, and Yingguiquan took his cronies to take charge of the state affairs in Yangzhou City, and secretly guarded against Yuan Ren of Tongzhou; ordered a little red Wen Tingyu to lead the army to openly and quickly go north to meet the battle after dawn the next day; he brought enough medicines for the application, and Tang Wen and the others bandaged their legs, and accompanied by Tang Shengzhi and Lu Qian, accompanied by Shaul and others, and only took a few cronies of Tianbao Bao Benqingtian Muzuo to rush back to the old camp in Huaihe overnight. Returning to the camp, he learned from Tuo Linke that the county lord had gone north to settle in Xuzhou City, and Wanyan Haoming had also promulgated the arrangement for attacking Xuzhou soldiers, so all the elite were dispatched to connect the five thousand soldiers of the old prince, and they were also required to live at the only passage from Pengcheng to Xuzhou----- the Tianyou Bridge Pass, so as to ensure the safety of Xuzhou City. Ren Tianqi carefully studied the map of the march, and decided on the strategy of attacking Xuzhou first, then turning back to break through Pengcheng, and seizing Suzhou, and ordered the Black Eagle to cross the Huaihe River bridge within three days, regardless of the cost, in any case, not to abandon the Huaihe River crossing bridge in order to prevent the Xuzhou troops from retreating south; he ordered Shaur to go out in front of him to feign reinforcements to Sizhou, and only need to provoke the Jin soldiers to take precautions, and he was not allowed to go out too much within three days, and if he injured 100 people, he would be severely punished; and he himself took a horse army of less than 30,000 people to attack Xuzhou City in the dark of night on the day of the battle between the two armies.

Ninety miles north of the Huai River is the city of Sizhou, more than 100 miles north of the west is the city of Suzhou; one hundred and twenty miles north of Sizhou is Pengcheng, and less than 100 miles north of Pengcheng is Xuzhou. Huaihe Hebei Daying and Xuzhou are more than 300 miles apart. The Xuzhou soldiers bypassed the main road and walked the small road, and the day general Ming rushed to the south of Pengcheng ten miles, extremely tired and sleepy.

Ren Tianqi was very anxious, worried that the whereabouts of the army would be revealed at dawn, causing the Jin soldiers to divide their troops to encircle him, so he frequently ordered the whole army to speed up again.

A flash of lightning, a few muffled thunders.

The sky, which had already wanted to see the sky, was darkened again, thunder rumbled, lightning was like a spiritual snake, and heavy rain came in a moment.

Ren Tianqi was overjoyed when he saw it, so he ordered the whole army to go straight to the road to bypass Pengcheng and take the Tianyou Bridge Pass.

Tianyou Bridge is just a small village, and there are 3,000 infantry troops guarding the mountain pass bridgehead, which can be said to prevent a drop of water; but the arrival of these 5,000 Wanyan soldiers has made the small village overcrowded. In addition, the weather was sweltering and hot, and the sergeants slept in a mess in the village, forming a plate of loose sand, and many people did not even know where to throw the knives and guns in hand and the armor on their bodies. Before dawn and thundershowers came, the soldiers of the Yan family were busy hiding from the rain and driving and taking care of the horses, and the village was a mess.

General Mu Huatong has not been drunk for a day in the past few days. He really couldn't figure out why the old prince had transferred himself to Xuzhou, and he didn't understand why the county lord came back with the little master to cry and cry; he missed Shaul and others; and he was worried about the safety of his master Ren Tianqi and Xuzhou soldiers. Every time I receive gold and silver from Dongxue Shaur and others, and every time I hear that everyone has been promoted to a general because of their merits, and each town has added their own family property, when I am envious, I can't help but feel more loss and loneliness. He was not good at drinking, but he became a well-known drunkard in the army, and he was not less instructed by the old prince for this. Although Mu Huatong is the most favored by Ren Tianqi among all Hu Yong, his martial arts and mental strategy are also higher than others, no matter how great his credit is, he is only a captain in the army, but he is responsible for the work of being a general, and his heart is quite wronged. The day before yesterday, I saw Ren Yong Ren Xing coming back with the county lord, no matter how I asked, Ren Yong and Ren Xing just sighed silently. Mu Huatong felt awkward, he was drunk again last night, and he left the barracks and ran to a shady place outside the village to sleep.

The sky will be bright, and the heavy rain will wake up Mu Huatong. Mu Huatong turned over and got up, didn't bother to get his clothes, picked up the mace on the side, staggered and panicked, and hurried back to the camp slowly.

Unexpectedly, his feet slipped, and one did not stand firmly, and Mu Huatong fell. Mu Huatong struggled to get up, saw a grass pavilion on the side of the road, hurriedly turned in, rested his head with a stick and fell asleep.

Mu Huatong woke up and was not shocked, and hurriedly turned over and listened to the ground, and saw that the ground was shaking loudly, confusing people's hearts and lungs, and there were a large number of horses in a hurry not far away.

At such a critical time, where did a large number of military horses move, how did I not know?

Mu Huatong was completely sleepy, jumped up, grabbed the mace, rushed out of the pavilion, and rushed towards the camp.

He didn't go far before he saw a rumbling behind him, and he turned his head sharply, not feeling shocked.

I saw that in the dark night in front of me, I couldn't see my five fingers, and in the lightning that trembled people's minds, the endless Mongolian army urged the horses to roll. As soon as Mu Huatong saw that it was the Mongolian army, he understood that it was the army of his master Ren Tianqi who was sneaking in, and he had an indescribable feeling in his heart.

Mu Huatong was stunned in the rain curtain with a stick in one hand, standing there not knowing what to do.

Unfortunately, after the army, when the rain stopped, the road was in a mess, and nothing was left but mud. This is exactly what it is:

Out of the mountains, Lingding is lonely, and it is difficult to walk.

Sleeping in the open air, the remnants of the shirt have not been continued.

The desert is lonely and ruthless, and the black water is sad with wind, frost and snow.

hates the sky, does not argue right and wrong, and is repeatedly teased.

Cold plums and peach blossoms, spring is too early, and people are cheap and rainy.

A strong man meets a nobleman, a famous man, and a confidant.

The horses are chaotic, leaving no traces, who knows the attachment?

Empty lamentation, depressed is not only one person.

The soldiers of Xuzhou were like entering a no-man's land, and the Mongolian soldiers took advantage of the dark rain to storm the Tianyou Bridge Pass, and the five thousand Wanyan soldiers did not see much resistance to kill and retreat, losing most of them. Seeing that the sneak attack on Xuzhou was about to succeed, the soldiers were even more respectful of Ren Tianqi like a god, and they were very excited; Ren Tianqi was also confident and happy, his pale face was flushed, and his heart was beating very fast and urgently.
