Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the early morning of September 5th, Jialan received a letter from Xue Shixiong and learned that Wu Benlang generals Zhao Shizhu, He Lanyi and Wu Yalang general Jin Wenyan led Youzhou's main army into the Bailangsai battlefield, and fought at Efeishui and Sangganshui.  A line of formations was formed to form a pincer defense with the White Wolf fortress, and they jointly resisted the army of Beilu led by Tilifushe Ashinaduoli.

    At the same time, Xue Shixiong also told Jialan the great news. General Li Jing of Youwu Guard and General Luo Yi of Wu Benlang had led the main army of Peiping to Yanbei on the second day of the lunar month, and were now rushing to the Bailangsai battlefield day and night. It is estimated that on the eighth day of the lunar month  Arrived at Bailangsai in the past few days, and set up formations on the Shenwuchuan and Sangganshui lines. They also formed a pincer defense with Bailangsai, and jointly blocked Zilifa Kang Sheoli and his army of northern captives. In the future, they will fight with Yanbei  The army worked together to intercept Shibi Khan and the main force of the northern rebels led by Shibi Khan who was retreating north.

    In addition, Xue Shixiong also told Jialan that the two armies of Liaodong and Liaoxi led by Yang Gongren, the left-behind Liaodong and Guanguo Gong, had entered Yuguan and were now rushing to Peiping. They would soon enter Zhuojun and were expected to arrive at Yan around September 12th.  north.

    Jialan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and was very happy.

    In this decisive battle between the north and the south that broke out in the territory of Daibei, the five main armies of the Northeast Province have all participated in the battle. The total number of troops invested is about 75,000. More than 70% of the troops of the Northeast Province's garrison are in or about to enter the decisive battle.  On the battlefield, fight to the death with Beilu.

    The basic principle formulated by the emperor and the central government in the imperial defense strategy was "Far East first, then the desert". First, stabilize the situation in the Far East and destroy Goguryeo, the overlord of the Far East, and then concentrate the force of the entire northern Xinjiang to fight to the death with the northern barbarians in the desert.  Among them, the Northeastern Dao Zhen garrison was exhausted after the end of the Eastern Expedition. Whether they resolutely obeyed the orders of the emperor and the central government and were willing to fight against the northern barbarians in the desert was the key to realizing this grand strategy.

    Fortunately, the emperor worked step by step. After the Eastern Expedition, Xue Shixiong, Li Jing, Yang Gongren and Jia Lan were appointed as the commanders-in-chief of the five main legions in the Northeast to ensure that the orders of himself and the central government could be carried out.  And it turns out that the emperor and the center chose the right person.  The commanders of the various legions in the Northeast were ultimately able to put the interests of the empire and China first, and led their troops to or were rushing to the decisive battlefield, ensuring that the emperor and the central government could act boldly, decisively, and resolutely when the situation at home and abroad was extremely unfavorable to the empire.  Implement the established national defense grand strategy.  As of today, this grand strategy has basically seen the dawn of victory.

    Jialan immediately informed the entire army of the good news to boost morale.

    The soldiers of Yanbei were in high spirits.  The morale is like a rainbow.  I will stick to Bailangsai to the death.

    That afternoon, Wu Benlang generals Zhao Shizhu and He Lanyi and Wu Yalang general Jin Wenyan led their troops to the intersection of Efeishui and Sanggan water.  Then Jin Wenyan led his troops to deploy with their backs to Sanggan River, while Zhao Shizhu and He Lanyi led their troops to deploy on the east and west wings of Efeishui respectively, quickly building a pincer-shaped defense against Bailangsai.  It not only posed a threat to the Beilu army attacking the Efeikou pass, but also ensured the safety of the transportation channel between Qingpi Road and Bailangsai.

    When Liveshe Ashinadoli saw the imperial reinforcements coming, he knew that he had missed the best time to attack.  Now our own army faces the pincer defense of the imperial army and is unable to attack.  To fight two opponents at the same time, you must swing both fists at the same time.  But his strength is not strong enough to fight two strong opponents at the same time.  What is particularly serious is that since falling into the Bailangsai battlefield, our own side has always used its own shortcomings to attack the enemy's strong points, while the opponent has given full play to its strengths and advantages, and thus made up for its shortcomings in the number of troops. As a result, both sides  The fight was evenly matched.  Now the opponent's reinforcements finally arrived. Although they arrived belatedly, they came at the right time, when both sides were losing the battle.  This way.  The imperial army quickly reversed the tide of the battle and established its advantage on the battlefield, unless it once again mobilized troops from Yunnei City to the south.

    Ashina Duli has no choice.  He had already anticipated this, so he specifically ordered the troops who captured the southern foothills of Yinshan Mountain and the eastern area of ??Hetao (i.e. Dingxiang County) to quickly support Yunnei City.  Although the defense of Dingxiang County is equally important, it can effectively prevent the empire's northwest army from entering the Daibei battlefield.  But Ashina Duli didn't care about that much anymore, and could send as many troops as he could to the south.

    The army that came south from Dingxiang County a few days ago has arrived in Yunnei and is cooperating with Chi Ji to set up Ashina to attack Yanbei.  But now it seems that Chi Jishe's attack was "loud as thunder but light as rain."  He did not exert all his strength and did not pose a major threat to Yan Bei.  This allowed Yanbei's imperial garrison to calmly dispatch troops into the Daibei battlefield.

    In fact, it is unrealistic to expect Chijishe to fight the imperial army at all costs.  The half-brothers Chijishe and Shibi Khan had conflicts and were very wary of each other. Chijishe was obviously at a disadvantage. For this reason, he had to find ways to preserve his strength and use every possible opportunity to strengthen himself.  own strength, so as not to be "eaten alive" by Shibi Khan.  This decisive battle begins with Khan taking risksIf he wins, he will create glory. If he loses, it will not be over, but the situation in the desert and the tent will be full of a series of dangerous variables, among which the Khan may "collapse".  The Khan has fallen, who will succeed him?  Qiming Khan's sons all have a chance. It depends on who is the strongest and who can win the support of most of the powerful people in the desert. Therefore, if Chiji has a chance to conquer the desert, in this case, he will be stupid.  Disarming himself for the sake of a tiger that's just waiting to eat him?

    La Lifa's setting Ashinel has no naive level. He can persuade Ashina to attack Yanbei and restrain part of Yanbei's army of Empire Town.  Therefore, while he urgently wrote to Jishe Ashina, he deceived him into saying that the war situation was in his favor, and Khan was leading the main army to retreat north, and begged him to continue attacking Yanbei; at the same time, he urgently ordered Yunnei City to mobilize  20,000 control strings are heading south. Even if they cannot take down the White Wolf plug, they must always attack the imperial army, consume the imperial army, and then prepare for the final decisive battle, so that Shibi Khan and the main army can destroy the White Wolf in the shortest possible time.  to open up the road to retreat northward and create better conditions.

    Ashina Duoli urgently reported the news to Qilifa Kang Sheoli, asking Kang Sheoli to take precautions. Maybe the Chinese people have more reinforcements coming from Yanbei. Don't be attacked because of your carelessness and underestimate the enemy.  Repeat the same mistakes.  At the same time, he urgently reported to his brother Shibi Khan and his brother Mohe Dushe, and once again implored them to face the reality, correctly analyze and deal with the increasing number of unfavorable factors, and cherish the hard-won results of this southward attack.  , retreated decisively and quickly, evacuating Middle-earth and returning to the desert as quickly as possible.

    On the fifth day of September, the fierce fighting on the Yanmen battlefield continued.

    Shibi Khan, Mohe Dushe and other military commanders all came to Yanmen City to supervise the battle. They all threw their own retinues and other elite soldiers into the battlefield, and they were desperate to make a desperate move.

    In Yanmen City, the emperor and important ministers of the empire also came to the front line of the battlefield. Yu Wenshu, Lai Huer, Zhao Cai and other military commanders, regardless of their advanced age, took the lead and personally commanded the empire's most elite imperial guards to fight on the battlefield.  On the city wall where flesh and blood were flying everywhere.

    The emperor of the empire was also determined to sink the boat. He threw all three servants from the Yiwei Mansion on the left and right into the battlefield.  The three servants are all sons of nobles, and they live in the imperial guard. Among them, there is one house of personal servants, and two houses of xunshi and yishi. There are a total of five thousand soldiers in five houses. They are the most elite imperial guards in the empire and the last army in the hands of the emperor.  .

    The soldiers on both sides realized that the situation of the war was about to change, and it was at the last moment whether the situation could be reversed, so both sides tried their best and fought like crazy. The number of casualties on both sides rose sharply.

    On the fifth day of September, the Guoshan battlefield was still in a stalemate.

    Yun Dingxing had to fight, but Kang Sumi had no intention of fighting. Both sides wanted to retain their strength, so the two sides "cooperated" very well on the battlefield. Although the fight was "hot", the casualties were limited, neither bloody enough nor dead bodies.  Across the fields.

    On the fifth day of September, Wang Rengong, who was guarding the garrison at Fangguan, listened carefully to the presentation of the special envoy sent by Yun Dingxing, and basically approved Yun Dingxing's requirements and suggestions.

    The troops at Yun Dingxing's hands were really limited. On the one hand, he had to serve the king, and on the other hand, he had to ensure the safety of Taiyuan. It was difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without straw, and he was stretched thin in arranging troops. He was unable to do anything, so he decided to attack Wang Rengong.  superior.

    At first, Wang Rengong asked him for reinforcements, saying that he would cooperate with him in a two-pronged approach to attack the Beilu in front and back, and then force the Beilu to evacuate Yanmen, but he had no troops and ignored him.  Now he could not make any progress in Mount Gu and made no progress at all. He had no choice but to think of Wang Rengong's strategy of attacking from both front and rear, so he immediately sent a special envoy to Loufangguan to persuade Wang Rengong to take the initiative and implement the plan he had proposed before.  A strategy to attack the northern captives from a flank.

    Wang Rengong understood Yun Dingxing's difficulties. Yun Dingxing indeed had no reinforcements for him. Now Yun Dingxing made a promise to him. As long as he took the initiative to attack the Beilu in the direction of Loufangguan, he would threaten the retreat of the Yanmen Beilu army.  , Yun Dingxing gave him the most elite reinforcements as soon as the reinforcements from the two capitals arrived at Mount Naoshan, and he commanded this army to take the lead in launching a counterattack against the Beili.

    On the afternoon of September 5th, Wang Rengong ordered the Daibei Army in Loufan Pass to attack again and advance toward Sangqian Town. They would fight bloody battles with the Beibei at any cost and must pose a threat to the Beibei who were attacking Yanmen.

    On the fifth day of September, the battle on the front line of the Yanbei Great Wall continues.

    On the same day, the reinforcements from the two capitals advanced rapidly on the roads in southern and southwest Shanxi, getting closer and closer to Taiyuan.

    On the same day, Youwuwei General Li Jing and Wu Benlang General Luo Yi led the Peiping Army to Anyang Town. After receiving supplies of food and grass, they set off overnight and continued to advance rapidly towards Bailang Fortress.
