Chapter 453: All the Way North (Middle)

Han Jiang was a little hesitant, of course, Zhang Ji didn't dare to force it, so he changed his words: "If it's not appropriate, Han Gong, please give an order." ”

This is a great time, at least the Golden Soup City has to be reclaimed.

If Guo Kui doesn't accept it, maybe Wang Ju will forcibly collect Jintangcheng on behalf of Guo Kui. Otherwise, it is not good to occupy that piece of Hengshan, the thickness is too thin, and it is not easy to occupy it! Therefore, Wang Jucai tricked Han Jiang into occupying Jintang City and Great Wall Ridge Road. Then the side slightly controls the return to the Dechuan, and then takes the Tongzhai River, so that this Hengshan convex angle can be held in the future, as long as it is held, the north can threaten Yanzhou at any time, and the south can control the Lingwu Avenue.

Even to Dali, as long as it can be held, the unfavorable situation of the Song Dynasty in the northwest will be reversed in the future, and with the addition of Suizhou, the entire northwest military form will not fall into disadvantage immediately.

Of course, it would be best if Guo Kui sent troops.

This is the first thing, and the second thing is to let the entire people of the Huanqing Erzhou Army who have withdrawn to the rear go home!

Some of the people were away for a long time, and although they were sent huts, charcoal, and food for heating, they always stayed uncomfortably, and they also caused a lot of trouble to the local officials.

Now it's time to come back!

As for the Yonghe Village side, Zhang Qi didn't know that Renduo Lingding only planned to attack for one day. But even if he didn't attack for a day, when he learned the news of the defeat of Liang Yi's army, he also guaranteed to escape faster than anyone else. Moreover, he and Wang Ju also arranged a strategy to deal with Ren Duo Lingding.

By the time the people returned, Huanzhou would have settled down long ago.

"It's business." Han Jiang said immediately, and then wrote Lubu. This Lubu not only ordered the people of Huanqing to return, but also reported the victory to the rear.

Hundreds of thousands of enemies were pressed before. Rumors spread in the rear. The people did not know whether it was true or not. It's often possible to be shocked three times a day.

You can't blame the common people, Li Yuanhao only had 100,000 soldiers and horses, and he successfully jumped outside Chang'an City, and this is 300,000 soldiers and horses.

With this proclamation of Han Jiang's pro-grass Lubu, the people's hearts can be calmed.

And I also have an explanation for those volunteers and other people, although you have worked hard in the rear, but the soldiers in front have worked even harder. And successive victories, with fewer enemies and more enemies, defeated 300,000 troops, then this blood and sweat is worth it. It is not like before, the people in the rear have paid hard work, but the soldiers in front have repeatedly lost battles.

The last thing is to inform all the people in the forts in the entire Huanqing two states, including Gyeongju City, and even the enemy.

The sound of firecrackers immediately rang out in the city of Gyeongju. The whole city was full of joy and drums, just like the New Year.

The officials were copying the cloth. Han Jiang still has to write documents, but this time he wrote a report dedicated to Zhao Ji.

In the past, Wang Ju used to write a report every day, but there were not many words dryly, only the report that asked Song Ji to send the peace letter that day was very detailed, and then it was dry. It wasn't until Han Jiang arrived that the newspaper was "enriched", and the whole place played a long story.

Ling'er also hurriedly ran home and said to Qiong Niang: "Niangzi, Niangzi, Da Lang has won a great victory in Rouyuan Village, and defeated the main army of the Xia army, and even the White Leopard City has been taken. ”

"It's good to win." Qiongniang stroked her chest and said.

"Lady, the officials are going to kill a lot of people this time."

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Ling'er stuck out her tongue, but the Tangut people met Wang Ju, and they did fall for eight lifetimes, and they were defeated several times. It used to be a little better, but this time it's really miserable.

But the war did not end.

There is also a strong Xia army on the side of Yonghe Village, and the leader is Renduo Lingding, not Liang Yiburi.

In fact, there was no need for Song Jun to shout, Ren Duo Lingding learned the news.

This is the defect of the Song army's small strength.

Because of the small number of troops, Wang Ju had to gather the forces in his hands in order to launch powerful attacks again and again.

But in this way, the capture of prisoners can not be forced. In fact, as long as the Western Xia deserters fled from the battlefield twenty miles away, they could escape the capture of the Song army. Moreover, outside the two main battlefields, there were only a small number of strongmen left behind in the other forts, and it was impossible to divide the troops out of the city to arrest them.

Some Western Xia soldiers wandered around this unfamiliar mountainous area and lost their way home. But there are also some clever soldiers who can discern the approximate direction.

Therefore, a small number of cavalry escaped by chance, and fled in the direction of Xigu Qi, and when they arrived at Xigu Qi, there was a part of Renduo Lingding stationed, and they mainly supervised the Song army of Xigu Qi to prevent them from stabbing from behind.

All these deserters brought was news of Rouyuanzhai, but Ren Duo Ling Ding had already guessed the approximate outcome.

Therefore, in the evening, he ordered the three armies to launch a strong attack, which ultimately failed, but with the help of this attack, he sent an order to the men of the Song army besieged in the Song army, telling them to surrender tomorrow, but they still had many troops available in their hands, and a large number of war horses that the Song Dynasty longed for, so let them negotiate terms with the Song army, but in any case, they must hold out until noon tomorrow before negotiating surrender.

In fact, this is Ren Duo Lingding's preparation for the future of Western Xia.

This battle will inevitably produce casualties, but the crisis is not this battle, but after the end of this battle.

In order to launch this war, almost the country's financial resources were raised, but with the defeat of this war, the whole country was lost.

And after this war, maybe the political situation in Western Xia will change. After a big defeat, the political situation is unstable in Western Xia, that will be very dangerous.

There is also Ding Zhuang, there are only more than one million Ding Zhuang in the entire Western Xia, but how many Ding Zhuang have been buried in this battle alone? And these Ding Zhuang are the real Ding Zhuang. Is it possible to use the Makui Army as the main army in the future? In the future, Western Xia will lack everything, economy, war horses, especially Ding Zhuang!

So the doomed ending, Renduo Lingding let them surrender, maybe they were forced to surrender if they didn't talk well. But as long as you survive, you may be able to hope for rescue in the future. Anyway, the group of scholars and doctors in the Song Dynasty who sued for peace could do anything stupid.

Then Rindo Zero Ding let the three armies rest and prepare to start camp tomorrow morning. This matter can't be hidden, it's better to say retreat earlier, and the morale of the three armies can be a little more stable.

Then he sent scouts to find the way ahead.

Before the sky knew it, it was getting dark, and Renduo Lingding received another piece of very bad news. It is said that a large Song army rushed to Huai'an Town from the east. Enter Huai'an Town to rest.

This made Ren Duo Ling Ding feel creepy. And this made him see a little shadow of Li Yuanhao's use of soldiers.

It is a bit similar, both are large-scale sports tactics, and in his later years, Li Yuanhao used this tactic perfectly, so he achieved the glory of the Battle of the River Meander.

But there are still many differences, after all, the Song army is slow, so it can only be placed in a specific environment, such as the current Gyeongju. There are many mountains and complex terrain, and the Song Dynasty is familiar with Western Xia.

So there are similarities and differences between the two.

However, fortunately, Huai'an Town is more than 50 miles away from Yonghe Village, and the Song army has few cavalry and more infantry, so if you retreat early tomorrow morning, you can still get rid of the enemy. But Ren Duo Lingding's heart was cold, since the Song army had divided their troops and came to Huai'an Town, Liang Yi's burial side must have been extremely miserable.

So he gave another order. Tomorrow at dawn, the three armies will immediately withdraw.

Right now. Several officers and soldiers brought He Bin to Suyuan Village.

Chonggu came out from afar and said, "I've seen General He." ”

Cai Ting is also paying attention to the battle situation in Gyeongju, last night Renduo Lingding retreated to Xiguqi, Cai Ting learned the news in the morning, knowing that Wang Ju was about to move, so let He Bin lead the nearly 10,000 troops who attacked Tiandu Mountain to hurry to Huanzhou to see if it could come in handy.

This army had just arrived in Huanzhou City, but Chonggu was not in Huanzhou City, but took his men to Suyuan Village.

The arrival of Hebin's nearly 10,000 Song troops was an unexpected joy. Because of the attack on Tiandu Mountain and the acquisition of a lot of wealth, the morale of this group of Song troops was at a high time.

Chonggu immediately welcomed He Bin into the village, but he didn't dare to call the shots on how to settle the nearly 10,000 Song army, so he immediately sent a fast horse to report to Huai'an Town.

An hour later, Kuaima came to the city of Huai'an out of breath, and Liu Changzuo also felt surprised when he heard the news, because from beginning to end, Wang Ju did not expect that Cai Ting would increase his troops to help. However, it is obviously too late to inform Wang Ju now, the balloon has not yet fallen, but this time it is not for communication, but for the capture of prisoners.

However, there are no balloons on the side of Anjiang Fort, and the news will be sent to Wang Ju, but at this time, he must make a judgment. So he thought about it, wrote a secret order, and asked the fast horse to return to Suyuan Village from Whitinburgh.

After seeing the news, Chonggu said: "And the general, then trouble your soldiers to eat some hardship." ”

Now that the Chong brothers have begun to arrange, He Bin certainly sees their intentions and understands Liu Changzuo's intentions. smiled and said, "Quan Dang attacked Tiandu Mountain. ”

Each is arranging, each is arranging.

As the sky grew brighter, Rindo began to withdraw.

The Xia army, who was surrounded inside, saw him withdraw and leave, and they were sad and disappointed.

"This battle has been so badly defeated," thought Rindo Zero, standing on the top of a hill in the distance, looking down. Maybe he will come up with something, then it will speed up his growth. Maybe he can't think of anything, so when he sees Song Jun in the future, his heart is cold, and he has no fighting spirit.

After a long time, Ren Duo Ling Ding said, "Go." ”

The walk is not fast, the Song army blocked this place, and can only detour, and there are more than 60,000 soldiers under his account, which means that he is extremely picky about the road, and ordinary trails have to be abandoned one by one.

So I turned around in a big circle, and finally turned out of this mountain and came to the flat Malingchuan area.

As soon as he came out, the scout who was exploring the road in front came back and reported: "General Renduo, the Song army has set up a camp fence in Suyuan Village. ”

"Go on," shouted Renduo Lingding, who was making a detour in the morning, and the Song army from Huai'an Town also set off and chased after him.

Although the two phases were far apart, by the afternoon, maybe the Song army would be able to catch up.

As soon as he gave the order, he rode forward on horseback, where the scouts had also come yesterday to investigate. It is possible that this fence was built urgently by the Song army at dawn.

Instead of an ice wall, the weather has also warmed up, and the ice wall tactic has lost its effect. It's a real fence, and the whole thing is blocking Malingchuan. Behind the fence stood many heavily guarded Song troops.

"Why does that kid have so many troops in his hands?" Ren Duo Ling Ding thought.

Song Ji came back and said that there were more than 90,000 Song troops, and those released prisoners of war came back or said that the Song Dynasty had more than 90,000 soldiers and horses, and from the previous intelligence analysis, Wang Ju did have so many soldiers and horses in his hands.

But now it's not right, if there are more than 90,000 soldiers and horses, the battle has been fought until now, the Song army has also suffered heavy casualties, and yesterday Wang Ju dispatched so many Song troops in Rouyuan Village, it stands to reason that there are not many troops in Huanzhou now.

But now there are seven or eight thousand soldiers and horses here.

Could it be the Song Army over there in the three forks of the Mengmen?

He guessed half correctly, the Song army on the other side of Mengmen Sancha, as well as a small number of Song troops in Whitinburgh and Papaya Fort, were also approaching this side, but they had not yet arrived. This is only the subordinate of the Seed Friendship and the Seed Gu.

Ren Duo Lingding continued to look, probably because of the tight time, the front Malingchuan fence wall was solid, and the side of the wide ravine leading to the camel flat fence was slightly weaker.

At this time, some Song troops continued to strengthen the fence.

What Ren Duo Lingding wants is to withdraw, whether it is to return to Dechuan Road or Baimachuan Road, as long as he can leave the Song Realm, even if it is a slightly smaller Daluo Qianchuan Road.

After watching it for a while, he immediately rode back and ordered the three armies to forcibly attack the ravine wall under Suyuan Village.

At this time, Miao Zhu was also dividing his troops, so that Zhou Yongqing continued to trap the soldiers and horses of the Hidden Treasure, and he followed with his subordinates, but there were not many soldiers and horses in his hands, plus yesterday's tragic offensive and defensive battles, and now there are fewer troops in his hands, so Miao Zhu just followed behind, and did not kill him.

The bloody offensive and defensive battles began again.

After an hour, Gao Min led thousands of Song troops to rush to help.

Seeing that it was approaching noon, Rindo Lingding became even more anxious, and threw almost the entire army over at any cost to carry out a strong attack.

This is just a fence, and the fence over there has not been completely erected, and after an hour of hard attack, Chonggu saw that there were heavy casualties, so he had to order a retreat, you want to escape, let you escape. (To be continued......)
