The decisive battle of the return division of the north to resist Jin

The news of the loss of Xuzhou City has already been reported to Wanyan Haoming, who is sitting in Sizhou.

Wan Yan was shocked.

Wan Yan Hao set up a poisonous plan: send troops to besiege Suzhou, lure Ren Tianqi to lead reinforcements, and come to a siege point to send reinforcements; and sent 5,000 stumbling horse troops and 10,000 foot troops to fight steadily and steadily, snatching the Huai River crossing bridge from Sizhou, wanting to cut off Ren Tianqi's retreat, and then encircle Ren Tianqi on three sides and trap Ren Tianqi. The key point of this dispatch of troops is to seize the bridge on the Huai River, so Wan Yan Haoming sat in Sizhou City to command and control the overall situation remotely.

Wanyan Haoming has not studied Ren Tianqi carefully, and he knows that the reason why the Xuzhou soldiers are strong is mainly due to the three treasures: the brutality of the Mongolian soldiers, the powerful cavalry ability to rush and break through the defense, and Ren Tianqi's natural talent for fighting. However, the Xuzhou soldiers also had weaknesses to be found: the territory was small, there were not many soldiers, and there were only about 30,000 mobile troops in total; there was a lack of infantry, and they lacked the ability to attack the city and pull out the village, and the Xuzhou soldiers had many skillful soldiers and strange soldiers, and there were few face-to-face strength exchanges; in addition, the Southern Song Dynasty did not hide from the Xuzhou soldiers' self-esteem of cutting land, and they were always ready to move, and the Xuzhou soldiers were suffering from the enemy on their backs. Therefore, this time the troops, Wanyan Haoming was determined to win, and all the elite troops were dispatched, and an ambush was set up outside the city of Suzhou, leaving only a small number of old and weak defenders in each city: 5,000 in Xuzhou, 2,000 in Pengcheng, and 5,000 in Sizhou. Because Xuzhou City has always been a place where soldiers must fight, and it is also an important supply town, and the daughter of the king of Zhengnan is here, although Wan Yan Hao's name is confident, or ask Wan Yan's soldiers to move to Tianyou Mountain Pass to ensure that Xuzhou City is foolproof. Now I see the loss of Xuzhou City, Xuzhou elite soldiers have gone north, the life and death of the county lord is unknown, and the Huai River ferry has not been able to take down, and it cannot be closed in the form of a closed door, and the heart is very anxious, not only worried that the saint will blame the responsibility for the failure of this battle, but also worried that the king of Zhengnan will be punished after he returns. What worries him even more is whether in the short period of two days, whether all the troops of Xuzhou have gone north, whether they have dispatched all 80,000, 50,000, or 30,000? The Xuzhou soldiers not only did not save Suzhou, but also boldly attacked Xuzhou; after Xuzhou succeeded, did they go south to encircle and suppress their scattered tens of thousands of people, or did they go north to take the imperial capital? Wanyan Haoming sent a large number of probes and horses, who stayed awake all night, and could not make up their own opinions. The generals under his command expressed their own opinions, but most of them advocated withdrawing their troops north to recover Xuzhou City.

At dawn, the army had arrived in Pengcheng.

Lu Qian said: "Brother Xian, do you want to go straight to Sizhou, or do you want to attack Pengcheng first, so as not to attack Xuzhou by the enemy defending Pengcheng?"

Ren Tianqi shook his head and said with a sad smile: "Take Sizhou City directly and ensure that the passage of the bridge on the river is important!"

Ren Tianqi's intention is very clear, the sneak attack on Xuzhou in the north is just to mess up the enemy's mind, hit the confidence of the Jin soldiers, and make the Jin soldiers worry about the Xuzhou soldiers and want to go north to Yanjing again; the return army to the south to protect the retreat of the whole army, and then a decisive battle one by one is the fundamental strategy of this dispatch, with the victorious army against the discouraged enemy, although the strength is not superior, but there should not be much disadvantage, the right to make a big gamble, not to mention that the battle of the three armies lies in the essence and not in the number of people, at this moment, where can we still control the thousands of soldiers in Xuzhou City.

The Great Monk nodded.

The army continued to move rapidly south.

In the afternoon, the army was approaching the city of Sizhou.

Wan Yan Haoming had just made up his mind to retreat the whole army to the north, but it was too late, so he was busy closing the four gates and going to the city to supervise the battle.

After the army surrounded the small city of Sizhou, Ren Tianqi left Wei Yingkun with 4,000 tiger guards, 5,000 horse soldiers, and 2,000 light archers to besiege Sizhou City, while building a ladder to prepare for the siege; secretly brought 5,000 Mongolian troops, 5,000 horse troops, and 2,000 heavy archers to turn around and attack the 15,000 gold soldiers on the north bank of the Huai River who wanted to seize the bridge, and at the same time ordered Lu Qian to return to Yangzhou with the golden tiger talisman to dispatch all the horse infantry troops to the north to participate in the attack on tens of thousands of elite gold soldiers near Suzhou City.

Before dark, the army had come to the Huai River.

The two sides have been fighting viciously for three days on the Huai River, each with countless casualties, and they are in a state of confrontation.

Ren Tianqi led the army south, which immediately changed the situation, and the Xuzhou soldiers surrounded the Jin soldiers on three sides and blocked the Jin soldiers on the Huai River. Ren Tianqi did not know the ability of the Jin soldiers to stumble on the horse army, so he did not immediately order the whole army to attack, but ordered 5,000 archers and gunners and all the infantry troops to fire 10,000 arrows and 10,000 bullets in unison, trapping the Jin soldiers firmly by the river.

The Jin soldiers failed to kill several times, and most of them were killed and wounded. When there were not many 5,000 stumbling horse troops left, the Xuzhou soldiers attacked and wiped out the Jin soldiers at the Huai beachhead. The blood on the side of the Huai River flowed into a river, and the river was blood-red, and it was impossible to see clearly.

Ren Tianqi led the army to firmly besiege Sizhou City overnight, besieging but not attacking.

The changes in the battlefield in the past three days have shocked the world, and the courage and good fighting of the Xuzhou soldiers have made the world great.

Seeing that the Xuzhou soldiers wanted to raise all the soldiers and wanted to fight a decisive battle with the Jin State, Lin'an, who wanted to wait for the opportunity, heard the news and hurriedly ordered all military operations to be stopped, accepted the proposal of the Xuzhou soldiers and sent envoys to the banks of the Huai River to reward, expressing Lin'an's willingness to provide supplies and horses in full, and wishing to replenish the guns and soldiers in time, and wishing to appoint him as the king of Jin to command all the troops and horses north of the Yangtze River; Lin'an sent troops along the Huai River in Hao, and all parts of Chu wanted to cross the Huai River to the north to contain the Jin army.

In Dajin Country, there are people celebrating and some people worrying. The king of Zhengnan, who was still on his way back to the imperial capital, also returned halfway and led his army to the Huai River to respond. The Jin soldiers besieging Suzhou saw that there was no main general, and they were not attacking, nor were they retreating, and they wanted to go to Sizhou to relieve the siege, but they were afraid of being ambushed, so they besieged it without attacking.

Ren Tianqi naturally made a desperate gamble, and all the Xuzhou soldiers went north; confronted the Jin soldiers at the mouth of the Huai River, and increased the troops in Xuzhou, captured Pengcheng, and besieged the city, but did not save Sizhou and Suzhou. Jin Guo did not recover Xuzhou City in time, and it was already a frightened bird seeking self-protection.

Ren Tianqi was a courteous envoy who entertained Lin'anlai, stayed in the army and said that he would accompany him, never leave an inch, and gave a lot of strange money.

Three days later, Ren Tianqi invited the Lin'an envoy to watch how to break the enemy. He first led the whole army to capture Sizhou, captured the city Wanyan Haoming and other generals alive, and then led the army to relieve the siege of Suzhou. When the Jin soldiers heard the news, they all retreated and went to Xuzhou to camp in a confrontation.

Ren Tianqi led the army to Xuzhou, drove the Jin soldiers back for another hundred miles, and the Fang Ban division turned back, leaving 10,000 infantry troops, 10,000 Mongolian soldiers, 5,000 archers and gunners, 5,000 tiger guards, and 10,000 fast horse troops, stationed on the north bank of the Huai River, and the rest of the army was handed over to a little red Wen Tingyu and Yuan Ren to bring back to Yangzhou.

At this point, the Jinxu battle provoked by the Jin soldiers to punish the Xuzhou soldiers came to an end after eight days, and then the old prince came forward to comfort him and agreed to hand over the three cities of Sipengxu to the Xuzhou soldiers to station, and the turmoil was calmed down. Ren Tianqi is known as Xuzhou Bing, and his upper table is called Lin'an. Later, Ren Tianqi recruited 50,000 new soldiers in Xuhuai and Huaizhou, organized into 30,000 infantry, 10,000 horse troops, and 10,000 archers, stationed in four cities, and the black and white eagles sat in Xuzhou. Of course, this is not for the time being.
