Chapter 160: Yin and Yang People

The distance between Canzhou and Mozhou is very close, and when the Ninth Route Army completely grasps the control of Canzhou in the hands of the Song State, it is time to march to Mozhou.

Before finishing Yan Lou's room, he had just received supplies in Mozhou, and in the four counties of Mozhou, there was only enough food for them to support them for fifteen days.

Tangning is still that strategy, only the three state capitals of Youzhou, Yunzhou, and Xinzhou need to be resolved quickly, and the other state capitals can win as long as they delay.

Although Tang Ning also wanted to end this battle quickly, the situation on the battlefield was changing rapidly, and Tang Ning did not dare to guarantee that he would be able to win all the time.

If you have an absolute advantage in troops, then make a fuss about your strength and use your strength to win.

Attacking the weaknesses of the other with one's own strengths, this has been the way wars have been fought since ancient times.

In several county towns in Mozhou, the defending Jin army still has some backbone.

In terms of the topography of the sixteen states of Yanyun, in addition to Xuanzhou, the closest to it is Zhuozhou. But even so, there is a distance of 200 miles between the two, and it may take half a day to send cavalry to support, but how can there be troops in Zhuozhou?

There were a total of 80,000 Jin soldiers who had previously supported Canzhou, including 20,000 cavalry, and they all fled after discovering that the situation was not good.

The Jin generally treated the Song people who surrendered by retaining their original official positions and allowing them to continue to work in their original positions.

The governor of Youzhou surrendered from the Song State to the Jin State.

Wanyan Aguta still appointed him as the governor of Youzhou, and let him be responsible for the military and people's livelihood in Youzhou and the surrounding areas.

This person has some ability in government affairs, but when it comes to military vision, he is not even as good as Wu Dazhuang.

The Jurchen cavalry is different from ordinary cavalry, although it is not suitable for cavalry to exert its full strength in the sixteen states of Yanyun, but there is no problem at all in using cavalry to harass the enemy or pursue the defeated enemy army.

But he deployed all the 20,000 cavalry who fled back from Canzhou near Youzhou, causing Zhuozhou to send people to support, but he couldn't do anything.

You can't send a few thousand people, can you? There are hundreds of thousands of people on the other side.

In this case, the Jin army in Mozhou should think about how to surrender to save their lives, but they don't.

The Jin army in the four county towns seems to have reached an agreement and would rather die than give in.

They held out for thirty days after fifteen days' rations, and it was not until thirty days later that the Song army began to attack tentatively, and found that the Jin army in the city had lost even the strength to fight.

It took no effort to capture Mozhou, and the only thing it took was a month.

Whoever comes to such a deal will do it again, and if they can not lose troops, why waste the lives of the brothers in vain?

Zhao Ji also sent a messenger to comfort Tang Ning, saying that Tang Ning was a god general in the world, and praised Tang Ning to the sky.

he

If you don't boast about it, there is no way, the news that Wanyan Lou was killed by Tang Ning has spread to the north and south of the river. The Song people from all over the world applauded and celebrated Tang Ning for killing this cruel and unkind guy, and Zhao Ji must also affirm Tang Ning's merits on behalf of the imperial court.

Soon after, Wang Shilai's letter also mentioned that the angel had sent a large number of rewards to his family in Runzhou, and that Zhao Ji also intended to marry Princess Dekang, the daughter of the first emperor, to Tang Liang.

Tang Ning was not at home, and Wang Shi didn't want to refuse, so he agreed to it.

Tang Ning has no objection, Dekang and Tang Liang have been able to play together since they were children, and the two children had a good impression of each other when they were still in Tokyo.

Besides, although Dekang, a kid, was born in the court, he was rarely kind-hearted, and he was quite optimistic about this pair.

The day Wang Shi did not explain, and it is more likely that the messenger sent by Zhao Ji did not mention the matter of the day.

In case Tang Ning's war is unfavorable and encounters any accidents, he can not marry Dekang to Tang Liang to win over the relationship.

In addition to these, there is good news.

Tang Ning's great victory in Xuanzhou filled the government and the opposition with confidence in recovering the sixteen states of Yanyun, so Zhao Ji ordered Guo Cheng to lead the western army of 150,000 troops from the northwest to Shuozhou, and fight with Tang Ning on the east and west fronts at the same time.

Guo Cheng is capable of Tang Ning, but his combat style is very different from his own.

Although Guo Cheng was very interested in gunpowder, he was also accustomed to using gunpowder. But his thinking can't get out of this era in the end, and he still wants to use gunpowder to expand his advantage while carrying out tactics.

Downing, on the other hand, simply used gunpowder to gain an advantage, and then used tactics to expand the advantage.

Although it doesn't sound like much difference, Jin Jun just likes an opponent like Guo Cheng the most.

Gunpowder, the Jurchens also had it. So in the end, Guo Cheng's tactics should still be based on hand-to-hand combat. The Jin army is quite strong in hand-to-hand combat, so the victory of the war on the Western Front depends on the ability of the generals on both sides to adapt on the spot.

The Jin Army's most troublesome opponent is like Tang Ning.

When the two armies faced each other, they did not shout or talk nonsense. Relying on his range advantage, he first baptized arrows and gunpowder, and then went up to call the battle.

The most important thing was that he also deployed cavalry on the flanks, and there were heavy infantry in the rear of the army. Wherever the front goes, the horse will be carried wherever it is refused, and the cavalry tactics of the Jin army will not find the slightest chance at all.

Besides, this bastard also likes to fight ambush warfare, and his army can always kill from some inexplicable place. Such an opponent, even if it is Wanyan Agu, he will have a headache for a while.

After the Song court sent officials to take over the local government affairs in Mozhou, the Song army marched again.

Tang Ning sent Lu Qiren to lead 60,000 troops to attack Jizhou this time, and the remaining 140,000 troops were all taken by him

Attack directly towards Zhuozhou.

The governor of Zhuozhou, who detected the movement of the Song army, sent six distress letters to Youzhou in one day, but before the reply from Youzhou arrived, the Song army had already arrived in the city.

God knows how frightened Zhuozhou Zhizhou was when he saw the Song army under the city, obviously the scout said that the Song army was still dozens of miles away, why did he arrive now?

As everyone knows, the 30,000 soldiers brought by Tang Ning are all the foundation of the original rebel army, and it is definitely not possible to let the Ninth Route Army march forcibly, not to mention whether they are willing or not, their physical strength will not be able to bear it.

With these rebels trained in the form of the Zhenguo Army, things are much simpler. I walked one hundred and twenty miles in two days and one night, although it was still slightly inferior to the Zhenguo Army, but compared with the stinky fish and rotten shrimp of the Ninth Route Army, it was more than enough.

"Looks like the right move." Tang Ning said with some emotion.

Beside him was the pro-soldier commander surnamed Wu, and he smiled and said: "When the head of the family asked the villain to follow the old method of the Zhenguo Army to train the righteous army, the villain thought of it, but the villain didn't expect this day to come so quickly. ”

"Hmph, you don't talk much, be careful that the wall has ears, and listen to what you say.

When the time comes, Lao Tzu will be unlucky. Downing rolled his eyes.

"Hehe......" Commander Wu scratched his head in embarrassment and stopped talking, his identity is delicate, it is indeed better to say less.

Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived. Before they closed their mouths, the guy they were wary of came.

Liu Ling looked at the soldiers who were resting nearby and said: "It seems that your training method is effective, these people are originally just farmers, and they can have such a marching speed, if it is extended to the whole army, wouldn't the combat power of my Great Song army be unparalleled in the world?" ”

"Huh." Tang Ning looked at him with disdain and said, "Those stupid pigs in the Privy Council are reluctant to spend even the money to make gunpowder, do you think they will be willing to spend money on hundreds of thousands of soldiers to eat meat and drink bone broth every day?" ”

Tang Ning's move is to refer to Sang scolding Huai, and everyone knows that the person who stopped the manufacture of gunpowder in order to expand Yanfu Palace is Zhao Ji, and Tang Ning scolded the stupid pig of the Privy Council, which is actually scolding Zhao Ji in disguise.

Liu Ling said helplessly: "It's useless for you to be weird with me here, hasn't the gunpowder been restored?" A new batch of gunpowder is on the way, and if you delay it for a few more days, you won't have to worry about running out of gunpowder when you hit Youzhou. ”

"Yo, you really look down on me." Tang Ning looked at Liu Ling contemptuously: "I am a little generalissimo of the Nine Routes Soldiers and Horses, how dare I make yin and yang strange with you, a martial artist?"

Besides, what am I talking about here, Lord Martial Virtue, don't you want to tell the person above right away, do I have to do this? ”

Liu Ling looked at Tang Ning for a long time, and finally sighed and turned to leave.

Tang Ning seemed to have a deep prejudice against himself, and he shouldn't have come to him to make small talk.

This is self-inflicted humiliation!
