After a long time, Fang Jinshi finally finished speaking. He threw away the stone in his hand and said with some pride: "The most important thing about my plan is that it must be fast, fast, fast, fast" He He waved and gestured excitedly and said, "To complete a step, we must quickly rush to the next place to do the next thing. If we are slow and let the Jin soldiers react, I am afraid that the entire army will be annihilated."
Zhelun said: "Our horses are the fastest. Jin Bing's cavalry chased them several times but couldn't catch up."
Fang Jinshi smiled and patted his shoulder and said: "I absolutely believe this. I asked you two to cooperate. It's because both of their subordinates are cavalry. That's how it happened. Xiao Kuohai, do you have any questions?"
Xiao Kuohai said: "It just so happens that I really don't understand something."
Fang Jinshi smiled and said, "Brother Xiao, please speak."
Xiao Kuohai said: "What I don't understand is that now that the Song and Jin alliances are attacking us, Daliao, as a Song general, why did you rebel against the Song Dynasty to deal with the Jin soldiers? You don't seem to get any benefits from this matter, unless this is a big deal. The conspiracy is to make us two enemies of the Jin Bing surrender themselves into a trap."
Fang Jinshi chuckled and said: "I dealt with the Jin soldiers only because soon there will be a life-or-death battle between Song and Jin. I want to use your strength to weaken their strength in Yunnei Prefecture first, and also help my father-in-law and his old man If you don't believe me, I will go with you. If you see that the situation is not right, you can kill me. I will never take my own life for a joke."
Huang Jinmian suddenly stepped forward and said, "Add me, and I'll go too."
Fang Jinshi and Xiao Kuohai were a little surprised. They both looked back at her. Huang Jinmian came over and said, "When will you start setting off?"
Fang Jinshi said: "The sooner the better, it's best to prepare and leave immediately." Huang Jinmian said in a deep voice: "Then why are you lingering here? Let's go quickly."
She suddenly scolded her loudly, and Xiao Kuohai immediately ordered his subordinates to go back and prepare. Fang Jinshi also asked Zhelun to go back and mobilize the troops. He saw Jin Mian standing in front of her horse stroking its mane, so he walked over and said, "Miss Huang, You shouldn¡¯t go, actually I¡¯m not completely sure.¡±
Huang Jinmian glanced at him and then said, "Do you think I will listen to you?" After saying that, he walked away. Fang Jinshi gave a helpless smile. Huang Jinmian was going, and he really couldn't stop him.
Zhelun and Xiao Kuohai moved very quickly, and it didn't take long for them to gather together. They were all cavalry, and everyone had a horse. They also brought digging tools. Fang Jinshi and Huang Jinmian joined Zhelun's team and went to dredge together. river bank.
Their large group of cavalry marched, not daring to expose their whereabouts too much. Fortunately, the territory of Yunnei Prefecture was vast, and they did not encounter any golden soldiers during the day's journey. In the evening of the next day, they arrived at the place that Fang Jinshi wanted to dig. place.
At this time, the weather became cloudy, and then drizzle started to fall again. The place we came to was the original channel of the Junhe River. Because it threatened the safety of the capital of Yunnei Prefecture, the Liao Dynasty regulated the Junhe River and the Yellow River and blocked this place. The Junhe River So he changed the route.
There are no golden soldiers guarding here, and the embankment is high, so digging is the most labor-saving. Fang Jinshi and Xiao Kuohai gave orders, and the cavalrymen dismounted one after another and took tools to dig the embankment of the dredging river in the drizzle.
Destruction is always much easier than construction. Thousands of people came to dig river embankments, and the progress was much faster than Fang Jinshi imagined. In the early morning, they had already dug a large gap in the Junhe River, and the rushing water of the Junhe River Taking the road down, I don¡¯t know where it is going at night.
Fang Jinshi knew it very well. When he was in Wanyan Digunai's camp, he noticed that the Jin soldiers were stationed in a low-lying area. Only a few generals such as Wanyan Liang were stationed on the top of the mountain. I came up with this plan after seeing the flood control map at my home in Dahuaishu Lane.
Fang Jinshi felt that the water was strong enough, so all the soldiers mounted their horses. In fact, they had been separated by the rushing river to the other side, and it was not easy to go back.
The old road of Junhe River has a large drop. Although it has a few turns, the road is farther than taking the land to Tumaling, where the Jinbing Grain and Grass Camp is located, but the water flow is very fast.
The break of the Junhe River was stretched bigger and bigger by the river water, rushing down. The river water returned to its old path and rushed into the Jin soldiers camp at a speed of thousands of miles. It was the third watch when the flood hit, and most of the Jin soldiers were killed. While I was sleeping, it happened to be drizzling, and most of the guards were hiding in the camp. Until someone screamed and woke me up, a large amount of tree branches and garbage were already falling from the sky.
Ninety percent of the Jinbing Jurchens couldn't swim. Even if they could swim in this dark night, it would be in vain. There were shouts for help everywhere, and those who escaped with their lives tried their best to run to higher places. Nine out of ten Zizhong weapons were damaged, and in the river There were not only Jin soldiers swimming in the river, but also many war horses and livestock. Stoves, clothes and clothes were floating all over the river. The losses of Wanyan Liang's men and women were several times greater than what Fang Jinshi had imagined.
Wan Yanliang had to report in the middle of the nightThe Jun River burst its banks and flooded the army. Troops were hurriedly mobilized for rescue. However, it was impossible to save these many troops in the dark. He did not expect that someone would attack Tumaling opposite him, which had been blocked by the flood. Even if he realized it, he could not organize an effective force to fight across the water.
This was something Fang Jinshi didn¡¯t expect.
He hurriedly led his troops on the road. Even though he was wearing a rainproof poncho and a raincoat, his clothes got wet early. Fang Jinshi wiped the rain off his face. It was really uncomfortable to drive in the drizzle. of.
He looked at the golden cotton that was always on his right and said: "Miss Huang, do you regret coming to suffer this crime?"
Huang Jinmian was much better than him. Xiao Kuohai specially found a big tarp for her to cover the rain. She said softly: "I'm fine. How far is it?"
Fang Jinshi said: "It's right in front."
It was almost dawn at this time. The troops had traveled all night and dug soil for several hours. They were sleepy, tired and hungry, and their movement speed was much slower. Fang Jinshi turned to Zhelun and asked: "Zhelun, what are you doing?" Have the people sent to contact you come back?"
Zhelun shook his head. Fang Jinshi looked stern and said to Xiao Kuohai and Zhelun: "The opportunity is fleeting now. If we can't rush to the valley ten miles ahead immediately, the Jin soldiers will find us soon after dawn. Then It¡¯s dangerous.¡±
Xiao Kuohai didn't ask about which valley. He turned around and said to his subordinates: "Brothers, cheer up. Those who are lagging behind should ignore him." Marching in the dark is inherently difficult, let alone in the drizzle. The local soldiers led the way together, and finally arrived at the foot of a soil slope when the sky became gray and bright.
Fang Jinshi didn't wait for the horse to stop, and jumped down in a hurry and ran towards the hillside. Everyone dismounted and followed him. When they reached a high place, they discovered that there was a long and slender valley under their feet. Fang Jinshi gasped: "Fortunately, there is still time. "
Huang Jinmian said: "What's too late? Aren't you going to burn the Jinbing's food and grass camp in Tumaling? There is no food and grass here."
Fang Jinshi looked at her, and he was surprised that this girl Huang didn't fall behind and followed her so quickly. He pointed to the west with his right hand and said, "Tumaling is over there. I let the water flood the Jin soldiers, and then Let people pretend to attack Tumaling, and Chi Zhanhui of the Jin army in the north will definitely send troops to rescue them. This is the nearest way."
When he said this, Xiao Kuohai and others already knew that his real intention in rushing to this hillside was to ambush Chizhanhui's tribe to rescue the Jin soldiers in Tumaling. This tactic was originally "encircling the point for reinforcements". It's just that he has few soldiers, so he seizes the most important point of the Jin soldiers to feint attack, attracts the Jin soldiers to rescue them, and then attacks the reinforcements.
Huang Jinmianqi asked: "Where did you get the people to pretend to attack Tuma Ridge?" Fang Jinshi smiled and said: "Do you believe that I can scatter beans to form soldiers? I used bean soldiers to attack."
Huang Jinmian knew that he was lying to fool him, but even if he didn't say anything, Huang Jinmian didn't ask any more questions. Fang Jinshi said, "Brothers, get ready, Jin Bing should be here soon."
Zhelun ordered his men to execute it without any doubt, but Xiao Kuohai half-heartedly asked his men to prepare stones, bows and arrows for an ambush. After eating a simple meal, a scout came flying to report: "It's coming, it's coming."
Fang Jinshi asked people to hide. At this time, the autumn rain had been falling all day and night, and finally it gradually stopped. The sky was getting brighter, but it was still gloomy. A long line of golden soldiers were winding along the road in the valley. It seemed that at least There are two to three thousand people.
As soon as Xiao Kuohai saw the golden soldiers entering the ambush, he became excited. When the golden soldiers were halfway in, he shouted loudly. Xiao Kuohai lifted up the big stone and threw it down hard. The ambush soldiers all came out, and the Khitan soldiers and Qi Yan The allied troops rained arrows down like rain, occupying the advantageous position from a high position, and the Jin soldiers suffered heavy casualties.
Because of the hasty preparation, there were not many stones that could be thrown away, and the bows and arrows were quickly shot. The golden soldiers below ran away. The golden soldiers at the end of the team who had not entered the valley moved towards them along the ridge.
Xiao Kuohai drew his sword in his hand and prepared to lead his troops to fight. Fang Jinshi said: "No, hurry up." He then led his men to the place where the horses were stopped at the foot of the mountain, beat the horses and ran towards the north.
Now Zhelun only followed his lead and led the team down. Xiao Kuohai saw that it was a battle to take advantage but avoided the fight. He felt very regretful. However, seeing that Huang Jinmian also followed Fang Jinshi and escaped, he had no choice but to lead a team full of dissatisfaction. Someone followed him.
He saw Fang Jinshi driving his horse forward without any intention of stopping, so he hurriedly chased the horse to Fang Jinshi's horse and shouted: "Why don't you fight?" Fang Jinshi said loudly: "We are going to flank Chi Zhanhui's army. camp."
Xiao Kuohai's expression tightened and he wanted to ask more, but Fang Jinshi had already urged his horse forward again. He had no choice but to urge his subordinate cavalry to speed up. After walking for more than half an hour, he heard faint shouts of killing.
Fang Jinshi stopped and said: "Xiao Kuohai, in front of you is Jin Bing'sCamp, your place of use has come, it¡¯s up to you. "
Xiao Kuohai shouted orders and led his cavalry to follow Zhelun's cavalry forward. They rushed past Fang Jinshi and shouted for death. Just as Huang Jinmian was about to urge his horse to follow, Fang Jinshi said urgently: "Miss Huang!"
Jin Mianlema stopped and turned around to listen to him. Fang Jinshi stepped closer and said, "This is a war between the Khitans and the Jurchens. We don't need to go."
Huang Jin groaned and said, "Then where are we going now?" Fang Jinshi said, "Go find my bean soldiers." He led more than ten cavalrymen and headed towards the road they came from, then turned east and kept walking. After nearly an hour, we came to a forest.
Some war horses were parked by the forest, and some soldiers were resting. Their clothes and armors were of all colors, making it impossible to tell where they were from. The people here had already been greeted by someone, and the leader turned out to be Du Cheng.
Fang Jinshi asked a few questions and said: "Let's go, it's not safe here, and there's nothing left for us to do." He quietly left with the cavalry from Huimeng Mountain in Roufu County, the capital of Yunnei Prefecture. It seemed that this war and They never had any relationship.
When Xiao Kuohai and Zhelun rushed into Chi Zhanhui's military camp with their cavalry, Chi Zhanhui was fighting fiercely with the Liao army who had secretly camped overnight. These Liao troops should have been trapped in the city of Yunnei Prefecture, but they suddenly appeared in front of his army. On the right side, the leader is the eldest young master Liu Xinghu.
Fang Jinshi's layout was actually very large. He didn't just want to burn down the grain and grass camp in Tumaling. With them going long distances to attack the mountains, the chance was really slim. When Liu Chengchuan received the secret letter brought by Zhelun's men, , praise it several times.
It is difficult to truly encircle Yunneizhou City, because its east gate is a water village connected to the Yellow River. The biggest weakness of the Jin soldiers is that they have no boats.
With the defeat of Chi Zhanhui's troops and the heavy losses of Wan Yanliang, the siege of Yunnei Prefecture was no longer sustainable, and Liu Chengchuan was unable to recapture Ningren County occupied by the Jin soldiers. The strength of the three parties gradually became balanced.
In the same year, most of the Jin soldiers withdrew.
