Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the southeast of Wuzhou, a fierce battle is taking place.

    One side of the battle was the 3,000 troops sent by Zhe Kecun to rescue Wuzhou, while the other side was the troops from Su Lisu.

    Judging from the scene, the Song Army had been surrounded by the Jin Army, because the Song Army was in a hurry at that time. Unexpectedly, it encountered the elite of the Jin Army on the way. However, Ba Lisu had no intention of attacking Wuzhou, but ordered a small number of soldiers.  Ma was restrained in Wuzhou, while he personally led the force to encircle and annihilate the supporting army.

    A sentinel rushed over, "Report ¡ª¡ª, General, it's bad, the Southern Dynasty Army in Yinshan broke through our defense line."

    Ba Lisu was shocked, "So fast?"

    Because Ba Lisu wanted to concentrate his forces to eliminate this supporting army, but he was also afraid that the main force of the Song army in Yinshan would return to support and surround him. Therefore, he ordered five hundred warriors to take advantage of the narrow mountain road in the hope of stopping the Song army.  The main force of the army first eliminated this support army, and then concentrated its forces to eliminate Zhe Yanzhi's troops. Now he heard that the Song army easily broke through the defense line he had arranged, which surprised him, because in such a narrow valley,  No matter how many Song soldiers you have, you can't rush through them in one fell swoop.

    The sentry scout said: "The Southern Dynasty army used a very powerful firearm, which deafened all our soldiers and thus broke through our defense line."

    The general on the side said: "General, the Song army will arrive here soon, we'd better withdraw first."

    Ba Lisu frowned and suddenly shook his head and said: "That's not necessarily true. That army probably doesn't know that we are here to surround and annihilate their reinforcements. They should first go to rescue Wuzhou. We still have some efforts." As he said that,  He immediately looked towards the sentry and said: "Go to Wuzhou quickly, order them to abandon Wuzhou, and concentrate their forces on me to entangle the Southern Dynasty army in an hour. Regardless of victory or defeat, retreat immediately."

    "Follow your orders."

    The general said again: "General, how can one hour be enough?"

    Ba Lisu smiled and said: "If everything goes well with the capital, I believe our reinforcements will arrive soon."

    Because the Jin army sealed the deal earlier, Zheyanzhi only knew that the Jin army besieged Wuzhou.  He didn't know the situation in Xinzhou, but he had a vague feeling that something was not good. After wiping out the five hundred Jin troops, he immediately headed straight for Wuzhou without stopping.

    But as soon as they left the Yinshan Mountains and before they had time to breathe, a team of thousands of Jin troops came over to kill them.

    Zheyanzhi immediately ordered the soldiers to fight, but after a while, Zheyanzhi realized that this Jin army was here to delay their return reinforcements.  He is even more anxious. Although he has the advantage on the scene, the enemy is cavalry and they are fighting and retreating. It is difficult for you to eliminate them in one fell swoop.

    The battle situation is very tense.

    At this moment, a force suddenly came out from the rear. It was the one thousand defenders of Wuzhou. It turned out that when the military general and the defender saw the besieged Jin army suddenly heading north, he felt something was wrong in his heart, and there were one thousand of them.  It is also difficult to defend Wuzhou City.  So he made a decisive decision and chose to leave the city because he knew that Zhe Yanzhi was attacking the Yinshan Pass and saw the Jin army heading north.  He was afraid that Zhe Yanzhi would be ambushed, so he led his army to arrive. He happened to see Zhe Yanzhi's troops fighting with the thousand-gold army, so he hurried up to encircle and suppress this gold army.

    Seeing the Song army arriving from behind, this Jin army did not dare to fight and hurriedly withdrew eastward.

    Zhe Yanzhi did not dare to pursue, and immediately asked about the situation in Wuzhou. After learning about the situation in Wuzhou, Zhe Yanzhi looked shocked.  Said: "Xinzhou is in danger."

    So he immediately organized his troops and went to Xinzhou for rescue, but he didn't go for a while.  Suddenly I saw a Song army running out of the mountain.

    Zhe Yanzhi was about to order the soldiers to fight when he suddenly heard someone in front shout: "There is a major general in front of us."

    "General Fan."

    "Major General. It's the Major General."

    The small group of troops hurriedly came up to meet them.

    Seeing that all of them had mud on their faces and their armors stained with blood, Zhe Yanzhi knew that something was not good, because Fan Jie was guarding the Xinzhou base camp. With his appearance, Xinzhou must have been attacked.  He hurriedly asked: "General Fan, how is Xinzhou?"

    When Fan heard this, tears welled up and he immediately cried: "Major General, something bad has happened. This morning, the Xinzhou base camp was suddenly attacked by more than 10,000 enemies. Now the water stronghold has been breached by the enemy. Our brothers are all the same."  Died in battle."

    At this point, he really couldn¡¯t go on.

    Zhe Yanzhi's body shook violently a few times, his face turned as white as paper, and he said in disbelief: "You¡ª¡ªwhat did you say, the water stronghold was breached by the enemy?"

    Fan Jie nodded, wiped his face, and said: "The enemy burst its banks on the upper reaches of the Yang River and used fire boats to break through our water stronghold."

    "What about my third uncle?"

    "The general was on the ship at that time, and now the generalThe soldiers also don¡¯t know where they are, and they want to come .  "

    Zhe Yanzhi¡¯s eyes instantly turned red, and his fists clenched and rattled.

    At this time, three or five more flying cavalry arrived, "Major General, no good, Xinzhou has been captured by the enemy. Now the main force of the enemy is chasing this way. Let's retreat quickly."

    Fan Jie said excitedly: "Major General, let's fight back and fight with the enemy to avenge the general."

    Zhe Yanzhi raised his riding whip, but when he looked at the faces behind him that were looking at death, he couldn't help but slowly put down his hand, passed his eyes with his arm, and said: "Brothers, quickly retreat to the direction of Yinshan Mountain."  .¡±

    Because the enemy army is coming from the west, there must be enemy troops in the west, and there is no way to go in front. The river in Wuzhou is occupied by the Jin army. God knows whether there is a Jin army guarding the other side, so they only have one road left, which is  Yinshan, although this is the end of Yinshan, there are many trails in the mountains. After entering the mountain, the towering Yinshan Mountains can provide them with good shelter. Even if they encounter an encounter, the Song Army does not have to be afraid on the mountain roads.

    Zhe Yanzhi immediately led his troops back and rushed to the Yinshan Mountains again.

    Less than half an hour after he left, Ba Lisu led a mighty army here. The reinforcements had been completely annihilated by him and the reinforcements sent by Wanyan Zonghan. After they were annihilated, he immediately headed northwest to kill  , prepared to encircle and annihilate Zhe Yanzhi's troops again, but unfortunately, Zhe Yanzhi had already run away. After he found out that Zhe Yanzhi had gone to the Yinshan Mountains, he stopped pursuing them.

    After Wanyan Zonghan broke through the water stronghold, he immediately picked up the siege equipment left by the Song army and attacked Xinzhou from three sides. There were not many defenders in Xinzhou.  There were only about a thousand people, and the main force was deployed at the base camp outside Xinzhou. Wanyan Zonghan attacked from three sides.  He didn't even know how to block, but Wanyan Zonghan only spent an hour.  Xinzhou City was captured.

    So far, Zhe Kecun's troops of about 20,000 have lost more than 10,000, and the commander Zhe Kecun has also fled. He still does not know whether he is alive or dead. Almost the entire army has been wiped out. Only Zhe Yanzhi's three or four thousand troops have escaped, but they are still alive.  It cannot be said that we are out of danger, because the roads in the Yinshan Mountains are complicated.  Whether they can cross the Yinshan Mountains and reach Ruzhou is still unclear.

    The Jin Army also paid a price of nearly 4,000 men. In fact, Wanyan Zonghan expected that 2,000 men would be enough, but he never expected that there would be such a powerful firearm in the opponent's position. With just one round of explosion, no one was killed or injured.  Thousands, there are also eight hundred, and there are five hundred warriors in the Yinshan Valley.  They were also massacred completely by the Song army, which he did not expect.

    Wanyan Zonghan accurately grasped Zhe Kecun¡¯s mentality and launched a lightning attack.  Defeating them one by one and wiping out the main force in one fell swoop was only secondary to Wanyan Zonghan. After all, he had killed thousands of men and completely annihilated the Liao army of hundreds of thousands. This was nothing, and he was gratified.  What's more, his warriors were completely resurrected.  The haze that had lingered over Jin Jun for many days was gone today.

    "Du Tong. General Ba Lisu is back."

    "Oh, let him in quickly."

    The words have not yet finished.  Ba Lisu walked in. Without waiting for him to salute, Wanyan Zonghan asked, "How is it?"

    Ba Lisu shook his head and said: "The enemy troops withdrew towards Yinshan Mountain, so I stopped pursuing them. I just added more troops to guard the key passes of Yinshan Mountain."

    "You did the right thing." Wanyan Zonghan nodded with a smile and said, "That's just a lost dog. There is no need to chase and fight. Besides, the enemy will always meet again."

    Yi Cibao asked excitedly: "Du Tong, what should we do next?"

    "We will set off today to attack Ruzhou."

    Wanyan Zonghan chuckled and said: "I have to make the opponent lose his footing. Guizhou is close to Juyongguan, so the enemy must be heavily guarded. However, if the opponent places heavy troops in Guizhou and Juyongguan, then Ruzhou will definitely have an empty defense. We must defend it."  Launch a fatal blow at the weakest point of the enemy's defense. Pull out of the speed and immediately lead five thousand troops to pursue the remaining troops. I guess Guizhou may send troops to rescue. If encounter happens, you don't have to hesitate.  If we take advantage of the situation, we will definitely destroy the enemy in one fell swoop, and I will arrive shortly with my army."

    As long as the Song army broke away from the fortress and met in the wild, their cavalry would take advantage of it.

    "Follow your orders."

    Ba Lisu didn't even take a breath, turned around and went out. He had followed Wanyan Zonghan for so long, and he naturally knew Wanyan Zonghan's habits well. Once he launched an attack, he couldn't stop at all.

    After he left, Yi Cibao asked again: "Du Tong, what about Xinzhou and Wuzhou?"

    "Leave a hundred people each."

    "One hundred people?"

    Yi Cibao almost bit his tongue off.

    Wanyan Zonghan smiled and said: "These cities are the tombs of the southerners. If theySend people here, and I will come back to eliminate them. I will eliminate as many as they come. I want the southerners to know that these are empty cities and they will not dare to attack them. Leaving a hundred people here to maintain law and order is enough.  "

    Brother Zonghan is so domineering, this is unreasonable.

    After reorganizing here for a night, Wanyan Zonghan immediately led the main force and rushed to Ruzhou with great momentum.

    This Yunzhou is surrounded by mountains on three sides. It can even be said to be located at the foot of three mountains. Even the city is high in the north and low in the south. The mountain to the east is famous in history and is called Baideng Mountain.

    Speaking of Baishan Mountain, one person has to be mentioned. This man was Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty. When Liu Bang went on an expedition against the Huns, he was trapped in Baishan Mountain. It was precisely because of this battle that the Wenjing Reign occurred.  Because the Han Dynasty was very afraid of the Xiongnu during this war, it adopted a peace policy, which brought stability to the Central Plains for decades. It was not until the emergence of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty that this situation was broken.

    Baishan Mountain is a strategic location. There is a road leading to Mongolia, called Baidao.

    And Yang Zaixing led his troops here to open up the Baidao, so that they could go to the north of Yunzhou and capture the northern pass. But how could the Jin army let Yang Zaixing pass here easily? They used the terrain to set up camps on the Baidao to block it.  Yang Zaixing.

    This Jinjun camp is set up on a curved slope. This slope is not very steep. After all, it is a highway.  However, there were steep cliffs on both sides, which made it impossible for the Song Army to use long-range weapons to attack down the slope because the slope was curved.  There is a corner in the middle of the ramp, and you can use the Bed Crossbow or the Heartless Cannon at the bottom of the mountain.  It was impossible to hit the Jin army's camp, and Yang Zaixing didn't bring a ballista, because there were mountain roads everywhere, and they were all uphill, making it difficult for the chariot to move forward.

    "Brothers, come here and kill all these golden dogs."

    I saw more than 500 people holding shields and swords madly rushing towards the Jin Army's Guanzhai.

    The narrow Guanzhai suddenly became a scene of swords, flesh and blood flying everywhere.

    And at the foot of the hillside.  Dozens of large pots were set up, and the hot water was boiling. Red, fat and tender pieces of meat loomed in the hot water. There were mutton snatched from nearby, and game from the mountains. The meat was thick and rich.  The fragrance fills the white road in the mountains and attracts people to smoke.

    Hundreds of soldiers gathered around these dozens of cauldrons, drinking spicy food and shouting that it was refreshing.

    As a pioneer general, Yang Zaixing was sitting on a bare boulder with an expressionless face.  This guy actually has a paralyzed face. He will always have this expression when he is resting, otherwise.  He must be sleeping, but there were a group of sleeping soldiers beside him.

    At first glance, this seems really puzzling. The soldiers at the front are fighting, but the people here are eating and drinking and snoring. This is so fucking unfair.

    After a while, Yang Zaixing suddenly kicked the sleeping soldier next to him and said, "Hey. Are you asleep?"

    The man rubbed his eyes and woke up immediately.  Nod immediately.

    Yang Zaixing said: "Get ready. In a quarter of an hour, I will go up and replace the brothers on the front line."

    "Follow your orders."

    A quarter of an hour later, these soldiers took their weapons and rushed up the ramp, and soon disappeared around the corner. After a while, they saw another group of soldiers shaking off their armor and running down.  Without saying anything, he sat down around the big pot, picked up the chopsticks made from tree branches, picked up the meat pieces inside, and stuffed them into his mouth, without paying any attention to Yang Zaixing.

    At this time, a large number of hunters suddenly appeared from behind, all carrying prey on their shoulders, "General, we are back."

    Yang Zaixing just nodded. The hunters started to handle the prey very consciously, skinning and digging out the internal organs. Their movements were so skillful that you could tell at a glance that they were the soldiers brought out by Master Li.

    "Cut your mother's ass off."

    Swearing is an uncivilized behavior, but on the battlefield, it is a very good way to boost morale. Five hundred swordsmen and axemen advance and retreat together, using broadswords, giant axes, and lightning strikes.

    And the Jurchen warriors who stood firm in Guanzhai were not left behind. They were brave and good at fighting, wielding giant axes, and resisted the Song army's attacks one after another.

    Before we knew it, it was already evening.

    At the foot of the hillside, the fiercely burning firewood was still making loud crackling noises, the hot water was still rolling and gurgling, and the soldiers were still eating rudely, making that frowning "chirp, chirp, chirp" sound.  Yang Zaixing¡ª¡ªshouldn't he be asleep yet?  Maybe he was just closing his eyes and concentrating.

    The sound of metal colliding on the slope never stopped for even a second. The shouts and screams were still lingering on the cliff, and corpses were already piled up at the pass.

    "Hoo¡ª¡ª!"

    oneThe Jurchen warrior with big braids held two large axes in his hands with arm spans above his knees. He was panting hard, and his eyes began to become hollow. The originally sharp ax blade had rolled up a large piece, which can be seen.  The armor of the Song Army was not a defective product, and the weapons supervisor did not cut corners. In fact, even if it was a defective product, I am afraid that these two axes would not be much better, because he had already been killing for a whole day, starting from early morning.  In the evening, there was never a break, except for taking a few sips of wine to quench my thirst.

    "General¡ª¡ªGeneral, this¡ª¡ªcontinuing the fight like this is not an option, but¡ª¡ªthe hateful Southerners are charging endlessly, and the brothers can no longer hold on."

    Mou Ke was panting harder than him and could hardly speak.

    The two people stared at each other and panted hard.

    As a defender, you are so exhausted, you can imagine the soldiers below.

    The braided general gritted his teeth and said, "It doesn't make sense. When did the Southerners become so brave? I have fought in battles all my life, and I have never seen an enemy so durable. After fighting for a whole day, he is still so brave."

    This is really not something Song Jun can do.

    Although Yang Zaixing is a brave general and a murderous maniac, he is not brave and without plans. He attacked here for two consecutive days and found that he was still unable to break through this pass, even though his number was more than double that of the opponent.  .  But that curved slope was too deadly, and the advantage of having more troops could not be used at all, and it also made it impossible to use the long-range weapons they were best at.  The Jin army was able to concentrate their firepower on the curved slope, causing every attack to be blocked by the enemy.

    He knows that attacking by force is not the answer.  But what he was best at was attacking by force. Seeing that the opponent's troops were far smaller than his own, thinking about this, he suddenly came up with a plan. He divided his warriors into five teams, each with 500 people. They took turns to charge, with half an hour as the interval.  limit.  That's about an hour. When the time comes, they immediately retreat, and the second group takes over, continuing the charge, while he cooks meat below. The soldiers who come down don't think about anything else, just start eating quickly, and go to bed after eating. They are full.  Serve after drinking enough.

    This Jurchen warrior does not know the situation.  When I saw the enemy attacking in the early morning, I immediately came up to block it, but this was the beginning.  It couldn't stop anymore. The Song army kept charging. There was no pause or restart in this battle. The Jurchen warriors could only kill with red eyes. At first, they still had the advantage. After all, they were condescending, but the three  After the round of charge.  The two sides started to fight evenly, and after five rounds.  The Jurchen warriors were gradually exhausted, and the Song army gained the upper hand.

    Every time the Song Army charged, the soldiers had enough food and sleep.  The Jurchen warriors do not have such good treatment. They have been fighting. In fact, the Jurchen warriors are quite durable. But the problem is that ten hours have passed. They are also made of flesh and blood. How can they still have physical strength? Inside their quivers  They were still full of arrows. What did this mean? It meant that they didn't even have the skills to shoot arrows. They just fired a few arrows in the first round of charge, and then they kept fighting naked.

    "But the Song army was very active on its own, and since it had the upper hand, it was even more unreasonable.

    By the time the Jurchens came to their senses, they were already facing sunset. Just like the setting sun, there was not much left.

    "General, the enemy has rushed out."

    A soldier said dancing in front of Yang Zaixing who was jumping excitedly.

    "These Jurchen Tatars finally launched a death charge. It really made me wait."

    Yang Zaixing smiled contemptuously and said, "Tell all the soldiers on the front line to retreat."

    "yes."

    Yang Zaixing shouted to the soldiers beside the cauldron again: "Hey, hey, hey, you guys, don't just eat for yourselves. We have eaten meat for a long time, but the enemy didn't even drink the saliva. Give them some broth."  "

    The soldiers were stunned for a moment, and then they came to their senses. They used big wooden spoons to pick up the big elbows and threw them to the soldiers beside them. Then they all picked up the big pots and walked to both sides of the ramp, arranging them neatly.

    After a while, the sound of killing gradually approached, and the soldiers of the Song Army retreated as if retreating from the court.

    And the golden soldiers in front of them were all arrogant and glaring, their eyes were red with blood, and their long boots stepped on the muddy water, splashing everywhere, and everyone was covered with muddy water.

    When the Song Army in front retreated down the slope, the Song Army on both sides suddenly rushed out. The two of them poured a pot on the Jin Army. It was boiling hot. Although their armor was hard, it also had very good thermal conductivity.  , it was so hot that it screamed, round after round, the strong smell of meat immediately covered up the smell of blood. All the people here did not fight in an environment full of fragrance. For the people of Song Dynasty, this was definitely  A treat, but for the Jin Army, it's an absolute nightmare.

    The soldiers in the front rolled on the ground and screamed loudly, while the soldiers in the back were even more depressed. I've been hungry for a day, so you just made a few pots of broth., isn¡¯t this deliberately trying to kill us?

    Without saying a word, Yang Zaixing strode over dragging two giant axes. He took the lead and chopped down people he saw. He walked up the corpses and swept them away with the axe. Several heads flew away. He had rested for a whole day.  Facing Jin Jun who was exhausted physically and mentally and whose stomach was growling, it was like a lion fighting a rabbit, a complete crushing.

    The Song army behind followed the boss from the foot of the slope up to the bend, and continued to kill around the bend.

    This was originally the death charge of the Jin Army. They fought hard, but the fire in their hearts had been extinguished by the broth, and the little energy left in their hearts was chopped into ashes by Yang Zaixing. Under the heavy axe, all  It's a tired egg.

    An hour later, when it was just dark, the Jin army in this Guanzhai was completely wiped out. Yang Zaixing didn't even give them a chance to surrender. He didn't give up until the last person fell. The black armor was already stained red with blood.  In fact, he never gave the impression that he was from the Shenji Camp, because most of his armors were red.
