Chapter 269: The One Prince
"Report, 6 Gong, Dashun City is big, big, big, big victory," the scout said excitedly. (
"Take your time." 6.
"Yesterday, at the third watch, Cai Gong sent a cavalry to attack the enemy camp, and Dashun City also sent thousands of troops to attack from the inside. I heard that the fight was very bad, and only a dozen people from that battalion survived. However, about the fourth and a half, Cai Gong sent people to go around to the enemy's rear, and joined forces with a fan on the other side of the mountain to burn all the grain and grass in the enemy camp in Western Xia. Just like that, and fought for two hours, suddenly several cavalry joined forces, killed the little emperor of Western Xia, heard that he was killed, and cut off a hand, so the three armies of Western Xia were defeated, and the corpses of Wuchuan on the east and west sides of the entire Dashun City were all over the field, and the blood flowed like a river. ”
The last sentence is nonsense, a general battle like this, no matter which side loses badly, it will end like that. For example, in the defeat of Qigou Pass, the fate of the Song army was even worse than that of the Western Xia army outside Dashun City.
But 6 was not convinced, and asked, "Are there any other reinforcements arriving?" ”
Don't blame him for being suspicious, there are only more than 40 battalions of officers and soldiers in Huanqing Road, but in fact he has two battalions less, and two new battalions of Fan Cavalry have been added in Huachi County. But even if the officers and men of these two battalions are counted, how many troops can actually be there if the officers and men of the 51st battalion, 500 infantry, 400 cavalry, plus some empty salaries?
Therefore, 6 Shu did not believe that Cai Ting defeated so many armies of Western Xia with all his troops, since Cai Ting could ask for troops from himself, then he could also move troops to other roads, such as Jingyuan Road, such as Yongxing Army. If the two sides secretly sent thirty or forty battalions of officers and soldiers, maybe Cai Ting would have the strength to fight.
"I haven't heard of it, but it seems that Cai Gong sent many strongmen to fight."
"Let's go down and find out later."
"Whoa." The scout went down in a hurry, how did he know about the intrigue at the top. They are all officials of the Great Song Dynasty. They are all officers and soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty. If you win, how can you not be happy? Moreover, the officers and soldiers have been defeated repeatedly, and they do not have much dignity as soldiers.
"Wang Wenliang, don't you say that the Song army is in danger?"
"6 Gong, no, is it that this little emperor doesn't know how to use soldiers?"
"That's pretty much the same," 6 said, or there were so many people. How did you lose so badly?
But now the problem is coming, Cai Ting once deliberately wrote to himself, asking for troops to be sent to help when the time comes, and that Xiaozhi County has moved troops twice. But he didn't have a soldier.
Of course, if a few battalions of officers and soldiers were urgently dispatched this morning, at least this would have been done, no matter whether it was too late or not, but if we send troops now, it would be even more ridiculous and generous.
Immediately reported to the capital, the more he won himself, the more dishonorable he became. What to do?
He walked around and suddenly came up with a great idea. A great idea.
The news also reached the ears of the seed, and the scout said, "The second general can make a great contribution over there." ”
The second general refers to the diagnosis of seeding.
This statement is even more sad, and his second brother is also happy for his meritorious service, but can the second brother's broken martial arts be as good as himself? Don't talk about martial arts, just be proficient in the art of war, and the second brother is not as good as himself. The second brother has made a great contribution to paddling over there, what about replacing himself?
I don't want this Qingjian City Lord, okay?
Therefore, the character of the seed is not very good, this person can really fight, and once the fight made the Xixia people flee when they look at the flag. But he is more selfish, lacks teamwork, and is also greedy for merit. It may be that later generations can also list Chong Ge as a famous general of the Song Dynasty, but Wang Ju doesn't like it very much. Let Wang Ju choose, he would rather have a clinic than a doctor.
…………
"You," Cai Ting knocked on the door of Wang Ju's head with his hand and said: "You are also under the old man, under someone else, and you have already written to impeach you." ”
"Cai Gong is right, but it is precisely because of Cai Gong that Xia Guan dares to do this."
"Forget it, take it, take it, anyway, this battle will make the Xixia people unable to recover their vitality for a few years." Cai Ting said. But he also somewhat underestimated the resilience of the Tangut people, why did Li Zicheng say that he was a descendant of Li Jiqian? One is a Han person, and the other is a party member, so it seems that they can't get involved. But it is indeed very similar, cruel, cunning, treacherous, not re-promised, and indomitable, daring to defeat a hundred battles.
Under the leadership of Li Jiqian, the Western Xia people also have this characteristic, unless they are pitted like Zhang Qi and pit out two or three hundred thousand troops at once, then the Western Xia will be in danger. Tens of thousands of people have been pitted like this, and the Tangut people will soon regain their old nature.
Of course, in the past two years, Western Xia did not dare to do anything to the Song Dynasty.
"But since we have taken the ballast fort, we have to rebuild it, and winter is coming soon, so we have to hurry." Cai Ting said again.
This is another problem that Wang Ju did not pay much attention to in his previous life, such as Dashun City, its predecessor was Xixia Mapu Village, but the current address of Dashun City is not on the original Mapu Village address. It turned out that Mapu Village was in the east of the West Mountain, with its back to the West Mountain, facing the Song Dynasty. Therefore, after Fan Zhongyan sent his son and Zhao Ming to take the Mapu Village, he immediately took a large number of people to repair it, because if he wanted to defend this place, he must place the city on the west side of the West Mountain, otherwise the enemy would not have to defend the city when he climbed the West Mountain, so he would run away obediently.
There is a similar situation in the ballast fort, two big streams on both sides, in fact, they are two small rivers, but the water level difference is large, the water flow is turbulent, so it is called the stream, and then it is located on the top of the soil mountain, so it is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Now it was used by Wang Ju to use a clever trick and easily take it, but this fort is located on the east side of Tushan Mountain, that is, if the Xixia people counterattack, as long as they grab the Tushan, the condescending situation will be in the hands of the Xixia people. Therefore, if you want to defend this fortress, you must rebuild this fortress and build it on the west side of Tushan Mountain, and with the Tushan water vein, it will become the iron gate of Gyeongju in the future.
"Duke Cai, the lower officials know that they are also preparing to send people to take prisoners of war to repair this fort, and they are about to report to Duke Cai."
"That's good, but Wang Ju, you really have to change your temperament."
"Hehe, Cai Gong, don't worry, if you do things under Cai Gong, the lower officials will naturally dare to let it go, but if you change to other officials, the lower officials would rather not do anything than let go."
Cai Ting was speechless by Wang Ju, and he didn't know whether he was praising himself or belittling himself, so he said with a smile: "Then go and arrange it." ”
In short, he still admires Wang Ju very much, one is the age gap, Wang Ju wants to grow up, it will be a long, long time, and there is not much conflict with himself, and the other is the battle the night before, Wang Ju temporarily commanded, under his command, several cavalry killed Li Liangzuo in time, which created a big victory, and Cai Ting was very grateful. Otherwise, if it drags on any longer, once it fails miserably, everyone will not think about it.
Wang Ju went down to arrange.
The sun had already risen high, but most of the people in the three armies were asleep.
Since the day before yesterday, everyone has been mobilizing and hurrying, and the officers and men of Huachi County have been even more miserable, they have been mobilizing the day before yesterday, and they have fought again at night, and then the bloody battle the night before yesterday, and the pursuit and arrest during the day yesterday did not stop until the third watch.
At that time, the morale was high, and everyone didn't feel sleepy, but as soon as they fell, they couldn't get up together, including Wang Ju, who had just woken up.
Zhang Qi walked over and said, "Zi'an, it's better for you." ”
His current shallow attack tactics have not yet taken shape, including Wang Ju.
However, there are several major elements, the two of them have similar ideas, one has to have soldiers, at least they can't use generals like Ge Huaimin, and soldiers must also be able to handle them, even if they attack shallowly, if they don't have generals, they still can't play.
The second is the intelligence system, and it is especially necessary to attach importance to scouts, so that the enemy can advance and we retreat, and the enemy retreats and we advance.
The third is to have a safe rear, so that it will be safe to retreat. For example, Gyeongju, if you want a safe rear, you must take the ballast fort.
But now the soil for the shallow attack is still insufficient, and the overall Song Dynasty soldiers are still cowardly and unbearable, and even if Wang Ju does not open the golden finger, everyone does not know that those people will be generals. However, scouts can be cultivated slowly, although the requirements are strict, but not as strict as the requirements for the main general. The rear of the security is even more difficult, no need to compare with other roads, just use Huanqing Road, take the Xinjiang Ballast Fort, the enemy is not good to harass the northern area of Qingzhou in the future, but from the top of Huai'an Town, there are loopholes to drill, if you want to achieve a safe rear on Huanqing Road, you must even take Qinggang Gorge and other key villages one by one, Xixia is to occupy Hengshan, and it is impossible to form a strict zhòng danger hài on Huanqing Road.
That goal is too far, and he can only come step by step, anyway, taking the ballast fort is in line with Zhang Qi's idea, and he also likes it very much.
"Brother Qianfu, it's also a loss to Gong Cai, if those two grandsons are here, I won't dare to do this."
"If those two grandsons are here, Zi'an, do you still want to achieve such a great victory?"
"Hahaha, but I finally got a stone to the ground." Wang Ju said with relief.
Since he came to Huachi last summer, he has been planning this battle, and it has finally come to the ground, and he has not disappointed.
"If two or three more such victories are achieved, Western Xia may come to an end."
"Brother Qianfu, you are wrong to think like this, Xixia is resilient, unless such great victories are continuously achieved in more than ten years, then Xixia will come to an end. Otherwise, even if they can achieve two or three such great victories, give them time to recover, and after a few years, they will continue to come. Does Brother Qianfu remember how Li Jiqian died? Tubo beat Western Xia so badly, but now what is the result? Where is the Tubo of the Six Grains? On the contrary, the power of Western Xia extended to the Western Envoy City, where it was the nest of Tibet. ”
"What a strange country."
"It's not surprising, one is lucky, and the other is that the surrounding countries are not angry, give them time and opportunity to recover, including our Great Song Dynasty, if you don't get it, there will be ministers who agree to continue to give the Western Xia New Year, so that they can recover quickly."
It is strange that the victors continued to spend money on the invaders, but it was indeed quite marketable in the Song Dynasty.
"Not this year, Zi'an has already written that piece and brought it to the capital by Huang Gonggong."
"God knows, maybe it will, maybe it won't," Wang Ju said. It's really hard to say.
"Zi'an, I don't know which guild continues to be weak?"
This duke does not refer to ordinary ministers, but to the bigwigs of the two governments, and even the ordinary governors of the two governments cannot be counted, there are only four people, Han Qi, Zeng Gongliang, Ouyang Xiu, and Wen Yanbo.
"Brother Qianfu, guess it will be that one?" (To be continued!)
