Chapter 147: The Tragic National War

At the end of November of the first year of Da Long Taihe.

The war of the Three Kingdoms had to be halted because of the unbeautiful weather and the heavy snowfall.

Today's snow is a little later than in previous years, but for the commanders and soldiers of the three parties who are fighting, this year's snow seems to have come a little earlier.

On the wall of Yingzhou, Nangong Ye's armor stained with dry blood had no time to clean for nearly a month, and in the face of the Jin State and the Turkic attack, the defenders on the city wall were all hastily eaten, and then snuggled up to the city wall and slept on the ground, and after resting, they directly began to defend and counterattack.

Nangong Ye put down the clairvoyant mirror in his hand, exhaled a breath of hot air and blew his palm, looking at the arrogance of the Jin State army who was also watching outside the city.

"Looking at this formation, Jin Guo is planning to withdraw his troops, this snow has temporarily alleviated our current crisis, and I don't know what the situation is like between the middle army and the left army."

"There is a news from Yunzhou that the 100,000 iron cavalry led by the Song Qing Department and an unknown Turkic cavalry are also in Yunzhou, and there is an evenly matched battle outside Ganzhou."

"This unknown Turkic iron cavalry has always planned to penetrate deep into the hinterland of my rear, and launched dozens of charges, all of which were stopped by Song Qing's team."

"Passive defense, the results of the Song Qing Department are only afraid that they will not be ideal."

Zhang Qiang slowly put down the clairvoyant mirror, and his face was a little negative.

"There is no way, the Jin Kingdom and the Turks tacitly join forces in one place, with more than one million troops, and we only have a million troops when we are full, but we have to defend six cities."

"As long as the soldiers and horses of the two countries can resist and do not leap into the mine pool in the belly of our dragon, this is victory."

"Looking at the formation of the Jin army outside the city, there is indeed a intention to retreat, but we must not be careless, in case it is a false move to confuse us, once we take it lightly, it will be troublesome."

"Let the military doctor continue to treat the seriously wounded brothers, it is better to live one than to die in battle."

"I'm most worried about the capital now, and I don't know if the 100,000 Praetorian Guards can last for a month, and it is said that the rebels have 400,000 soldiers and horses, and I don't know if it's true or not."

"If the Jin Kingdom doesn't withdraw its troops, we will be entrusted to live in Yingzhou, and there will be no way to go back to Jingqin Wang to save the driver."

"I don't know if Liu Shuai will have time to go back to rescue the driver."

"Words ........"

Zhang Mad patted the blood stain on his arm: "You are Your Majesty's maternal uncle, now that the five kings are rebelling, how can Lao Tzu see that you are not in a hurry at all, just like no one." ”

The gloom in Nangong Ye's eyes flashed: "What can Lao Tzu do?" With the enemy army of the Jin Kingdom supporting me, I can't get out of it even if I want to go back to save the car. ”

"Can't Lao Tzu go to the rescue, and he has to commit suicide with a knife in shame?"

"Isn't this more in line with Jin Guo's wishes, and with the wishes of those bastard guys?"

"What can I do if I'm in a hurry? You can't die in a hurry! ”

Zhang Mad looked at the scolding Nangong Ye and nodded stupidly: "What you said is also true, it depends on how long it will take for the Jin Kingdom to retreat north of Shanhaiguan this time, as long as we have our hands free, we can immediately mobilize 30,000 iron horsemen to return to Beijing to help." ”

Nangong Ye's face was stunned, and a sad look appeared between his eyebrows.

"There are only 30,000 cavalry left?"

Zhang Madness nodded with sour meaning in his eyes: "If it wasn't for Liu Shuai to send people to help the army on the left, Yasukuni Gong would not have been able to send 70,000 foot soldiers to rush to Yingzhou, without their help, we Yingzhou would have been captured by the enemy's iron cavalry." ”

"But the brothers are also worth it, the cost of the Jin army's siege of the city is at least more than double ours, one for two!"

"It's worth it!"

"But the old man's heart is bleeding, and nearly 100,000 people are gone!"

"Is it really worth it?"

Nangong Ye's fist creaked: "Jin State, after the Turks completely withdrew their troops, ordered Sima in the army to count the number of casualties. ”

"The Eagle Falcon passed on the other two armies, asked about the number of casualties, and after more than a month of fighting, they finally carried it."

"Old man, let's go, you first watch the movements of the Jin Kingdom, just in case."

"The old man understands."

On November 12 of the first year of Taihe, the heavy snow lasted for three days and three nights.

Under the pressure brought by the heavens, the armies of the Jin State and the Turks began to retreat north one after another, and their respective divisions returned to China north of Shanhaiguan.

In this battle, the main army of the right army was 200,000, the auxiliary army was 150,000, and the soldiers of Yingzhou, Fuzhou, and Jeju were 70,000 in the face of the siege of the main army of 600,000 in Jin, and they defended the country at the cost of more than 110,000 dead and 90,000 seriously wounded.

Among them, the main battle army defending the city wall alone suffered more than 80,000 casualties.

The city wall of Yingzhou was precarious, and under the appearance of broken walls, there was a heavy snowfall in the sky, and the main army of Jin was forced to withdraw its troops and return to China.

The price of the Jin siege was even heavier, paying the price of 160,000 dead and 70,000 seriously wounded.

On the Jeju side, the Fuzhou side and the Jin Kingdom combined with more than 50,000 people killed in the battle.

After the 250,000 main battle army of the left army encountered the Turks, they fought and retreated, and began to enter Jeju and started a war of attrition with the Turkic army.

In the face of a sudden attack of reinforcements from the Turks in the direction of Yunzhou, the casualties of the army on the left were much heavier than those on the right.

Coupled with the 80,000 iron horsemen who Duan couldn't bear to intersperse with them to help, a total of 130,000 people were killed in the battle and more than 60,000 were seriously injured.

160,000 Turkic cavalry were killed and more than 40,000 were seriously wounded.

Although Da Longfang is equipped with all kinds of excellent weapons, elite armor, cannonballs with amazing lethality, terrifying thunder shocks, and older feather arrows.

However, in the face of the Turkic cavalry, which had an unparalleled speed advantage, they held the border city of Jeju with almost a one-to-one casualty ratio.

If it weren't for the arrival of Duan's 80,000 iron horsemen, the cost of casualties would have been even greater.

The 100,000 iron cavalry of the Song and Qing Dynasty and Huyan Lianlu, and Yan Yu's Turkic iron cavalry launched several battles between Yunzhou and Ganzhou.

In the end, at the cost of 40,000 people, more than 78,000 Turkic cavalry were killed, but the plan to let Huyan Yunyao's army penetrate deep into the hinterland of Dalong succeeded.

Compared with the other two armies, Song Qing faced the Turkic iron cavalry that exceeded his own strength of nearly 100,000 troops, and fought completely according to Liu Mingzhi's orders, and tried every means to fly the Turkic kites.

The cavalry does not need to defend the city, you will retreat after me, and I will attack and disturb you when you go, and we must not let you go deep into the hinterland of my dragon.

After a few backs and goings, in the face of the cunning Song Qingbu, Yan Yu and Huyan Lianlu were furious.

This tireless harassment battle almost did not break the minds of the two women, and they temporarily gave up the plan to raid the hinterland of the Great Dragon, and turned to the direction of the battle to desperately pursue the 100,000 iron cavalry of the Song Qing Army.

In this way, it happened to follow Song Qing's kite-flying plan, and during the evacuation, thousands of Lei Zhenzi were pulled away by the last batch of soldiers of the Great Dragoon and thrown on the grassland.

It can be said that the reason why Song Qingbu was able to kill so many people was inseparable from the sudden use of Lei Zhenzi.

And Liu Mingzhi's 120,000 troops went deep into the hinterland of the enemy, captured the four cities of the Jin State, and after a battle with the 200,000 new troops of the Jin State outside the city of Songzhou, more than 90,000 people returned.

Nearly 30,000 soldiers were buried in other places, and they didn't have time to bring back the ashes.

As for the battle results of Yelumo's side, which killed more than 57,000 people and seriously wounded more than 10,000 people, it is impossible to know.

At this time, Liu Dashao had already taken the remaining more than 90,000 iron horsemen, and galloped thousands of miles in the direction of the capital along the Peruvian River in the Turkic steppe in the direction of the capital.

In just over a month of war, the total number of dead in the Three Kingdoms has exceeded 500,000.

For nearly two months, the corpses of the soldiers of the three countries were piled up together, which was enough to spread inside and outside Shanhaiguan.

The tragedy of the national war is shocking.
