Jiu Yang Yan returns 4
"Look, princess. ,nBEn,”
Zhao Qianru stopped beating the drum, handed the drum to Zhao Chen, and looked in the direction of Lai Zheng's finger, and the flag under the city swayed, which was a signal agreed in advance. Zhao Qianru immediately ordered the right army of the infantry division to attack.
As soon as the gate of Longxing Mansion was opened, a group of men and horses, about 3,000 people, were divided into two roads and thrown into the battlefield on both wings. This is the first time since the start of the war that the Song army has taken the initiative to increase its strength and change the situation on the battlefield.
"It seems that the commanders of the Song army are not incompetent, and they know how to change their tactics first." Wan Yan sighed on his face, and ordered to divide a thousand arrow-breaking armies into two ways to support the two wings.
Guo Xian Toad frowned and said, "My lord, why don't you send out all the reserve troops, the Song army seems to have no reserve men." ”
Wan Yan Changzhi shook his head and said, "It's not the time yet, just wait a little longer." ”
Cao Xun wiped the sweat from his forehead, they originally planned to let the Jin army devote all their strength, and after the two sides were exhausted, they would send out such a new force as the Urging Front Army to attack the Jin army. But now it seems that the Jin army has also been prepared for a long time, using "refueling tactics" to force the Song army to increase its strength, but it has always maintained a certain reserve force in case of accidents.
So what should I do next, if I send the Urging Frontier Army now and take the lead in revealing my hole cards? But first, it came too early, and secondly, the Jin army also had enough reserves to deal with it. If it is still done according to the original plan, then when will the Jin army dispatch its last reserve forces? Maybe Wanyan Changzhi is also waiting for the last opportunity to send his reserve troops?
The two looked at each other, and for a moment they couldn't do anything. Now how much the two of them hope that Yang Yan will be by their side and tell them what to do, because at this time, Yang Yan can always make a judgment in the shortest time.
"Xiao Gao, what will he do if he changes to the eldest brother?" Cao Xun muttered unconsciously to himself.
"I don't know." Gao Zhen thumped his head and said, "I really don't know." ”
"That's right, although we don't know what the eldest brother will do, but at this time, he will definitely make a judgment in the shortest possible time."
Both of them suddenly trembled, and Cao Xun suddenly shouted: "The most important thing now is to make a decision, it doesn't matter if it's right or not, the key is that you must take action, you can't sit still like this." ”
Gao Zhen also nodded, and said: "Yes, I think we should immediately send out the urging army, and fight hard, as I said first, if you lose, you will retreat to defend the city." ”
Cao Xun shook his head and said, "No, we will stop the Urging Army, but we will never retreat to protect the city." He turned his head to Gao Zhen and said: "Don't forget, there are still the original 5,000 men and horses in the city, you go back to the city immediately, and then form 3,000 people, sure enough, we sent the urging army, and the Jin army also sent out the reserve forces, you take the 3,000 men and horses to kill them, I want to see how the Jin army copes." ”
I saw that the city gate of Longxing Mansion opened again, and another Song army came out of the city, this Song army had about 3,000 people, and it was also a mixed group of infantry and cavalry, and as soon as it left the city, it directly killed the battlefield of the road.
Wan Yan Changzhi was nervous about the Song army, which had just been put into the battlefield, and saw that they actually scattered their men and horses, in the shape of a "scattering star array", and launched an attack on the Jin army. Although both sides have not yet reached the time of exhaustion, after all, Yijing has been fighting for more than an hour, and most of his physical strength has been consumed, and the number of people at this time is far less than that of the Song army, so as soon as this new force joins the battlefield, it immediately changes the situation on the battlefield, and the Jin army's road Yijing obviously can't support it.
At this time, Guo Xiajiao hurriedly said: "My lord, let's quickly send out the reserve men and horses, otherwise we will really not be able to stop the Song army." ”
Wan Yan Changzhi nodded and said, "Order, collect the troops and retreat." ”
Guo Shrimp was stunned for a moment and said, "My lord, now that the outcome has not yet been decided, why do you have to withdraw your troops and retreat?" ”
Wanyan Changzhi pointed to the wall of Longxing Mansion and said: "We only have these two thousand broken arrows now, and the Song army is in the city, and I don't know if there are any prepared men, if there are still people, then our army will be defeated, even if the Song army does not have prepared men, we can only fight with the Song army to be evenly matched, even if it wins, it is just a miserable victory." What's more, even if the Song army is defeated, as long as it retreats to the city and closes the gate to defend, we are powerless to attack the city. Therefore, if we continue to fight, no matter what the result, it will be unfavorable to us, and we don't know that we can withdraw our troops as soon as possible while there are still 2,000 reserve men and horses. Guo Shrimp Toad, you lead these two thousand arrow-breaking troops to cover the retreat of the army. ”
With the passing of Wanyan Changzhi's generals, the Jin troops from all walks of life fought and retreated, gradually distanced themselves from the Song army, and withdrew from the battlefield. Moreover, the retreat of the men and horses was orderly, coupled with the fact that Guo Shrimp Toad led two thousand arrow-breaking troops, rushing back and forth on the battlefield, covering the withdrawal of other Jin soldiers from the battlefield and blocking the pursuit of the Song army.
Seeing this, Cao Xun and Gao Zhen also ordered the Song army to stop the pursuit and retreat to Longxing Fucheng. After the Jin army retreated, Wanyan Changzhi was also afraid of the Song army's attack, so he withdrew the Jin army across the Wuyang River overnight to go down on the other side of the river.
In this battle, the losses of both Song and Jin sides were roughly equal, and it was basically a draw. But judging from the outcome of the battle, the Song army repelled the Jin army after all, and when the Jin army retreated, it also threw down some corpses and ordnance, which became the trophies of the Song army, so it can be regarded as a victory for the Song army. Therefore, when the Song army returned from outside the city of Longxing Mansion after cleaning up the battlefield, the city was full of cheers. Men, women, and children flocked to the streets to welcome the Song army, which had repelled the Jin, into the city.
However, Zhao Qianru also knew that the Jin army took the initiative to retreat, not a defeated retreat, and had quite strong strength, so she did not dare to be careless, while sending an order to reward the soldiers who had won the battle and treat the wounded, on the other hand, she also ordered to strengthen the guard of the city in case the Jin army came to attack Longxing Mansion again, and sent scouts to find out the whereabouts of the Jin army, so as to keep abreast of the movements of the Jin army.
After arranging these things, Zhao Qianru ordered a banquet to be held in the government to celebrate this hard-won victory.
In addition to arranging patrols to defend the city, all the generals above the rank of general participated in the banquet, and there were 70 people in Lala, and more than a dozen tables of banquets were sent by the prefect's yamen, which were crowded. The atmosphere was also very lively.
Just as everyone was eating and drinking, a guard ran into the prefect's yamen in a panic, and knocked down a servant who served food, came to Zhao Qianru, and said breathlessly: "Princess, okay...... Good news, Yang Horse...... Yang is back. "Just outside the prefect's yamen, Princess Yong'an is also here."
The lively hall suddenly fell silent, silent, everyone's eyes were focused on the guard who reported the news, Zhao Qianru slowly stood up, and said in a trembling voice: "What do you say, say it again." ”
The guard also breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and immediately said: "Report to the princess, Yang Juma and Princess Yong'an have come back, just wait outside the prefect's yamen, please ...... princess"
Before he could finish his sentence, he heard a loud "boom" in the hall, interrupting the guard's report. "Yang Shuai is back." "General Yang is back." "Yang is back."
Zhao Chen, Gu Xueping, Yue Ying, Yue Ke and several other young people all jumped up excitedly. Cao Xun and Gao Zhen's four hands were clasped together, Liu Fuwu, Zhang Shiyan, Wu Xi and others were also so excited that they burst into tears, Zhao Qianru suddenly pushed the chair, stood up and ran out, and when the other people saw it, they all got up and left the table, rushing outside.
I saw that Yang Yan and Zhao Yueru were really standing side by side at the door of the prefect's yamen, with a faint smile on their faces, just like the eyes of the dark night sky, and they also emitted a joyful light.
"It seems that during my absence, you are in good spirits."
******************************
Yang Yan let out a long breath, and now he can finally take a rest.
After returning to Longxing Mansion, Zhao Qianru was relieved to see that Yang Yan was safe and sound, although she also had a lot to ask Yang Yan, but finally accompanied Zhao Yueru to change clothes and rest. And Yang Yan was embraced by the generals to the banquet, and was immediately surrounded by all the soldiers to ask this and that, everyone was concerned about Yang Yan's whereabouts during this time, in the process of Yang Yan's confession, some people kept asking for detailed details, lest he said it clearly. was so busy that Yang Yan didn't even have time to eat. I'm almost going to learn Zhou Gong Tufu.
Finally, after Yang Yan finished telling what had happened during this period of time, everyone was like listening to a thrilling and dangerous story. But at this time, someone immediately came to report, and it turned out that the soldiers had also heard the news of Yang Yan's safe return, and they all gathered in front of the prefect's yamen to see Yang Yan with their own eyes. And Yang Yan had no choice but to come to the yamen outside the yamen to meet the soldiers, accompanied by the generals.
As soon as they saw Yang Yan coming out of the prefect's yamen, the soldiers immediately burst into a burst of enthusiastic cheers, and the sound was so loud that almost the whole city could hear it. And many of the people stood and watched. Some of the veterans of the original Xuanfeng Army crowded to Yang Yan's side, as if they had to take a closer look to make sure that Yang Yan was really back, and Yang Yan had no choice but to keep waving to the soldiers on an empty stomach......
Although it was the late autumn season at the end of October, Yang Yan was still sweating profusely. It was only after all the generals and soldiers dispersed that Yang Yan was finally able to rest and eat a meal in peace. I couldn't help but envy Zhao Yueru, as soon as she returned to Longxing Mansion, she hid in the back hall, and let herself deal with everything alone.
