1242 It is difficult to decide
"The day before yesterday, the two armies rushed to the north of Wulian City, and Wang Zheng first attacked with the elite of his headquarters because of his strength. The Jin army was armoured with horses, and five hundred heavy horses were chiseled through the headquarters. The first battle was frustrated, and Wang Zheng led the people back to Wulian, wanting to use other divisions to exhaust the division from the round battle......"
What was the battle process between the five lotus city slaughter kings and the Jin army's royal division, Zhang Qian was even clearer than the forces of the various parties on the Sanyang River.
As the initiator of this battle, especially Wang Sheng, who is a powerful army leader who has not been attached for a long time, in order to ensure that the development of the situation can be within his intentions, he naturally has to install his own cronies in Wang Zheng's army.
Because after the battle of Wulian City ended, seeing that the situation was irreversible, the Zhang clan's henchmen hidden in the army followed the trail to bypass the already chaotic Sanyang River and return to report the news.
But if there is a choice, Zhang Qian would rather not know the specific process of this battle. Although the combat effectiveness shown by the Jin army was extremely strong, after all, the distant division was outnumbered, so this battle was also extremely hard.
In the report of the cronies, in the course of the battle for a day and night, the Jin army has been completely threatened by Hu Buyi who is all over the mountains and fields several times, and the defeat is imminent, only because the terrain of Luoyangchuan is narrow and long, which is not conducive to the large-scale siege and attack of the army, and the king of the people secretly retains the intention of preserving the strength, and is reluctant to put the elite of the department into the battlefield at the critical moment, so that the Jin army can fight out of the encirclement several times, but kill those Hu Buyi are frightened and frightened, and dare not encircle it again.
Especially at the time of the final battle, Hu Bu Yicong was already difficult to use, and in order to lock in the victory, Wang Zheng had to lead the elite troops to meet the battle. Although the ordnance and equipment of its army lagged far behind that of the Jin army, especially the hundreds of heavy cavalry of the Jin army were even more powerful and desperate, after seven or eight hours of recuperation, Wang Zheng's army could be regarded as waiting for work.
In the last decisive battle, the Jin army rushed to the camp with heavy cavalry, but due to serious physical exhaustion, the lethality was far from enough, especially the large-scale death of the war horses, so that these hundreds of heavy cavalry were completely trapped in the slaughter of the army array, and also made the most powerful force of the Jin army completely lose its combat effectiveness.
At that time, even the main general of the Jin army lost his will to fight, and the heavy cavalry did not dare to rescue the enemy, but led the remaining thousand cavalry to the north of the Luoyang River.
The Jin army is well-equipped, far beyond the level of Longshang's heroic strength, seeing that the general trend is about to be determined, Wang Zheng is also greedy for full merit, while sending other troops to pursue the Jin army's rout, and on the other hand, he personally led his elite to besiege and kill the Jin army's heavy cavalry that has been trapped in the military array.
These heavy cavalry armaments are really good, especially the power shown in the battle is even more amazing, how could Wang Sheng, as a powerful military leader in troubled times, ignore the strategic value of this batch of heavy weapons. In this frontier of Longshang, even if all parties are willing to build it at any cost, there is no corresponding process at all.
Such an important strong armor and heavy weapon, a completely irreproducible boutique in Longshang, even one of them will make Wang Zhen's heart ache. Therefore, when the elite cavalry of the Jin army retreated, in order to avoid being coaxed by others, Wang Zheng immediately ordered all Hu tribes to withdraw from the battlefield and personally command the killing of these Jin heavy cavalry that had almost lost their combat effectiveness.
However, no one expected that at this last moment, these heavily armored soldiers of the Jin army suddenly broke out to fight back against Yu Zhong, and directly pulled out the banner of Wang Zhengzhong's army. At the same time, all Hu Buyi were driven out of the battlefield, and seeing that the banner of the Chinese army was destroyed, it immediately caused a great rout and escape of the whole army. And the Jin army, which had already fled, also fought back at a critical moment, which ultimately caused a great defeat and loss for Wang Zheng's army.
After learning this, Zhang Qian scolded Wang Zheng for being greedy and forgetting his life, and being mediocre and deserving of death, and on the other hand, he also regretted that he was still conservative when he made his decision. If he could have made up his mind at that time, he was not afraid of a complete confrontation with Zhongzhou Xingtai, and directly led the crowd to occupy Sanyangchuan, and when the Jin army killed Luoyangchuan, it was already the end of the strong crossbow, and he could be completely besieged and killed near Longshui.
Although this will also bring many bad consequences, but those are all problems that need to be considered and solved later, at least at the moment, the influence of Zhongzhou Xingtai can be prevented from entering Longshang.
But because of this taboo, Zhang Qian was unwilling to personally solve the problem of the Wang Shi who had entered Longshang all the way, so as not to let himself fall into a delicate and dangerous situation, and connived at the rest of the forces in Longshang to gather in Sanyangchuan, hoping to take advantage of the effect of killing people with a knife, so it caused the current embarrassing situation.
"If only you could be ruthless......"
Zhang Qiang's face was gloomy and he muttered to himself. Now that Wang Shi is stationed on the Sanyang River, and there are many Jin people in Longshang around him, and the results of the battle in Wulian City have also spread throughout Longshang.
Although at present, according to the military situation, Zhang Qian still has the absolute upper hand, and the 20,000 troops he has led have approached Ji County, and he is less than a hundred miles away from Sanyang River, and it seems that he still has the strength to besiege and kill this royal division.
But with Wang Zheng's experience, Zhang Qian really didn't dare to be optimistic in this regard. Moreover, Sanyangchuan is already the essence area of Longshang, the land is close to Tianshui, and the terrain is much more open than that of Luoyangchuan, so even if the battle is unfavorable, the king division can also change to other places, and has missed the best opportunity to annihilate its people.
What's more, there are already a lot of Longshang heroes gathered around Wang Shi. Earlier, because Longshang was only strong on his own side, those heroes could still temporarily make a posture of subduing. But now that Wang Shi is strong with a big victory, whether these people will be intimidated by their own strength under the situation of watching the wind and watching the situation also makes Zhang Qian not confident in this.
"Quickly send a message to Song Ji and ask him to speed up the march, otherwise General Long will not have it for me!"
Zhang Qian summoned his cronies again, and there was no shortage of anxious orders. Previously, he didn't want these Liangzhou heroes to interfere in the military affairs of Longshang, because he wanted to rely on this merit, but now his hope has been dashed, and the situation in Longshang has become more complicated, and it is no longer something that he can control alone. At present, it is necessary to unite all forces to unite with the outside world, otherwise the gains that have been made so far will be in danger of repeating themselves.
In addition to asking Song Ji to speed up the march, after thinking about it for a while, Zhang Qian also asked people to return to Guzang quickly, and the details of this period were dedicated to Zhou Zhujun.
This time, although Zhang Qian did not directly stop him, Wang Zheng was also part of his previous military exploits in recruiting and attacking Longshang, and his people brazenly used troops against Wang Shi. If the other party seizes this point and chases after him, Zhang Qian will also be embarrassed, and it will be difficult to get out. In the face of such a situation, Zhang Qian needs the state lord to give him protection and increase his support.
For this, Zhang Qian is still relatively confident, he is a capable person among the Zhang clan, and he is also one of the few vassals under the state government who has heavy troops and has great honors.
It's just that if you want to avoid picketing this time, you must be prepared for bloodletting, fortunately he has also gained a lot in this expedition to Longshang, but the thought of sharing the fruits of his bloody victory with others is always inevitable.
"Shen Yun, Shen Yun...... Wu Raccoon Dog, Nanxiang, dares to act as a prestige, this is to deceive no one in the west of me! ”
The battle of Wulian City also allowed the name of Master Wang to spread the name of Lord Shen Yun from Longshang. Speaking of which, Zhang Qian is similar to this Shen Yun's background, he and Zhou Zhijun belong to the clan, and this Shen Yun is also the younger brother of Shen Weizhou in Zhongzhou. The two of them set up their own armies and successively raised their might.
Zhang Qian has even heard that recently, some of the generals have begun to compare the two and evaluate the merits. Although Zhang Qian laughed loudly on the surface, there was still no lack of laughter in his heart, his family has run Hexi for four generations, and when his children became famous, who knew who the Shen family of Wuxiang was in Hexi and Longshang!
And he was able to set a heavy army and conquer the land of Henan, not all by the shadow of the door, and he came from Rong to build things and accumulate merit. As for that Shen Yun who is famous in Longshang, it is nothing more than a lucky victory in Wulian City. Even in the early years, the state collapsed, Liangzhou and Zhongzhou had frequent contacts, and many famous generals in Zhongzhou also had many deeds, but they didn't hear the name of Shen Yun, so it can be seen that this time the overseers can go west, and it is all due to the benefits of the portal.
"Let's let Wu Nu be a little arrogant, and after a long time, I will let you know that things are difficult!"
Zhang Qian was not angry with Shiliu to compare his talent with this fortunate man, and he also thought that in the future, the state government would definitely need to sit in the town of Longxi, Henan, and the two males would inevitably collide, and after a long time, Shiliu would know which was better and which was inferior.
At present, the garrisons of the two armies are very close, but Zhang Qian does not plan to have any contact with his army at this moment, and he really does not know what kind of posture to put on, before receiving the specific instructions of the state lord, at least after Song Ji arrives, he will not send an envoy there. Before that, only when the army did not exist.
However, Zhang Qian turned a blind eye to Master Wang here, but he was unable to cover the eyes and ears of others, and soon a series of accidents occurred, but this was not good news for Zhang Qiang. For example, the attitude of some forces that originally took refuge in him turned ambiguous, and even directly led the troops to withdraw. There are also some heroes in Longshang who are keen to build momentum for Wang Shi, which also makes Zhang Qian feel angry.
In order to show his majesty, Zhang Qian can no longer sit idle, and must stifle this momentum. And the object he chose to Liwei was the Haoqiang Yin family of Tianshui.
Yin Meng, the son of the Yin clan, was immediately hostage under Zhang Zong's account, and he found an excuse to detain him, and announced that he would behead him to show military law, the purpose of which was naturally to force the Yin family to bow to him.
Yin Meng's Yin Meng is now leading an army to serve as a general under Zhang Qiang's account, but with the end of the battle in Wulian City and the stationing of Wang Shi in Sanyangchuan, Yin Meng is less and less subject to Zhang Qiang's military orders, and even the earlier agreement to donate military funds has disappeared since then. On the contrary, his brother Yin Zhong collected and transported more than 5,000 cattle and sheep to the camp of the Jin army in Sanyangchuan not long ago.
At present, Zhang Qian threatened with his son's life, that is, to force Yin Meng to enter the camp to bow and plead guilty, but even so, Yin Meng still did not come to see him, but just sent someone to preach: "Longshang has been in chaos for a long time, and it is not easy for the king's life to be restored." Today, all sides are excited by the great victory of the king, and they know that the revival of Jinzuo is in sight. If you can help the military, you are not afraid of death. But if the inferior son is brave and arrogant, and violates the military law, what is the regret of a son! The godson has no kindness, no shame and begging, but waits for the king's order. ”
After listening to Yin Meng's statement, Zhang Qian was even more furious, and even planned to simply decide Yin Bao here, just because the generals under the account pleaded for mercy. And after this incident, he also felt more clearly that these powerful centrifugal Mijian in Longshang could only continue to urge Song Jidong to strengthen the strength and bargaining chips of his side.
However, Zhang Qian had just suppressed his anger here, and another turmoil arose: more than 100 sergeants in his army drank horses in Longchuan, but they were suddenly captured by the Jin army of Sanyangchuan, and all of them were captured. ()
