Chapter 470: Why
The general of Han Zhenbei lived in Datong, an important town in the north of the Han Dynasty, and ruled the three passes, and soon after the attack on Yanmen Pass, he received intelligence news!
"General, the Sui army reinforcements have arrived, about more than 10,000 people!"
Three days after the fall of Yanmen Pass, after receiving the news, the baby reacted very quickly, and was ordering troops to recapture, which was also his own job as a general of Han Zhenbei, while reporting to the Han Emperor while reorganizing the troops, but just preparing to reorganize the troops received the news that the reinforcements from Yanmen had arrived, which made him stop the whole army and wait for the order of the DPRK!
Yanmen Pass is the world's Xiongguan, if there are only those soldiers in the news, plus the Guanzhong are all Han people, waiting for the army to arrive, it is easy to recapture!
But there are more than 10,000 people, the Sui army has the strength of the whole city, then Yanmen Pass is not so easy to fight, Yanmen Pass has enough grain and grass for 100,000 troops to use for a year all year round, and the weapons are sufficient, so there are enough soldiers to defend the town, and the city guards are well prepared, it is impossible to break through in a short time!
However, as long as you know a little about military affairs, you will know how amazing the speed of the Sui army's dispatch is.
Thousands of kilometers, was the Sui army prepared?
According to the news obtained by the baby, Bai Qi was only temporary, and his exit was also a temporary conscription of the Empress of the Great Sui, how could it be arranged in such a short time!
Judging from the news on the grasslands, it has taken less than a month at most to mobilize troops and horses and prepare them from the beginning of the dispatch of troops.
The speed of this decisive battle and victory in the battle is so fast that every general who leads the army can be amazed, although the Khitans are defenseless, although it is the three guards of the Han State who have lost their vigilance, but they swept all the way and shot and laid down the three levels that are crucial to the geographical location.
This battle can be described as exciting!
If it was not a surprise capture of the Khitan Fengcheng this time, as long as the defenders could hold the city for half a day to a day, the reinforcements coming from all over the world would be able to easily besiege or even defeat the attacking Sui army under Fengcheng.
Yue Fei has moved to the pass, and supervised the army to erect a pontoon bridge over the Yellow River, originally to prevent the hundreds of thousands of troops from the grassland people going south to plunder, half of them have been divided to guard the three passes!
Yue Fei had already issued an order arrow in the main tent in the city at this time, "Zhang Xian! You lead the headquarters guard to subdue Jiuyuan County of the Han State, and then you will be stationed in Jiuyuan County, and you must clear the tribes of the Huns who went south to plunder! ”
Zhang Xian answered loudly, took the arrow with both hands, and soon, Zhang Zi Jiangqi galloped north under the embrace of 30,000 elite horsemen.
"Niu Gao, you will take the troops to Hanyunzhong County, and after subduing them, you will be stationed here, clear out the bandits, and wait for orders!"
Yunzhong County and Jiuyuan County are the two county towns outside the Hansan Pass, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and there are not many military horses, and in the past, they were only used to guard against the first front of the grassland going south, and they could be pulled out at will!
Here, the people in the rear have gradually arrived, and they have been dispersed to a predetermined place, around the pass, and began to dig the land and build a camp - the Ministry of Industry of the Great Sui has already determined how to expand the pass.
Then there is a bridge to be built here to build a bridge to the upper gun, which has also been prepared for a long time!
The craftsmen of the Ministry of Industry of the Great Sui State had already planned these in their spare time, and they were just waiting for the construction to start as soon as the site was down!
After Yue Fei received Bai Qi's early plan, he quickly made countermeasures, just waiting for everything to be ready, and even in order for Bai Qi's plan to be successfully completed, he also secretly dispatched elite soldiers to lurk in various cities early, but these arrangements were not very useful, and no one expected that the three passes of the Han Kingdom were already like this!
You must know that Yue Fei had already predicted that the enemy might break through the forward defense line at any time, but now it is only necessary to step up the construction of the preliminary city defense according to the plan of expanding the city, so that it can become a large city that can be temporarily garrisoned and defended.
The army is racing against time, and the people do not need to be pressed, on the frozen land, shouting trumpets, waving the iron pickaxes in their hands, and stepping up the construction of fortifications, while half of the soldiers start work with the people, and the rest do not participate in the construction of the camp, but are conserving their strength, waiting for the order of the marshal's palace to come, and go to support the place that needs support at any time.
No matter how good the plan is, it depends on how well the generals who lead the army fight, and what changes there are in the situation at Yanmen Pass and Ningwu Pass, all of which Yue Fei has to think about one by one!
The generals under his command have all been sent out, and the states and counties of Yongzhou have to stay behind, and the Huns have not retreated yet!
The reaction of the Han Kingdom also has to be considered, the three passes are lost, and the north of the Han Kingdom has no natural risks, although the state is called the mountains and rivers in the table, but after the three levels are lost, there are not many natural dangers to rely on!
The three passes headed by Yanmen Pass, the ancients called "the three passes to be unparalleled, the first pass of the Nine Stops", all dynasties are the arch of Kyoto, the protection of the Central Plains of the military land!
These three levels are lost, and it is unknown what lineup and how many soldiers and horses will be dispatched by the Han State to recover!
But Yanmen Pass and Ningwu Pass can be lost, but the partial pass can not be lost, occupying the partial pass, for the Great Sui, it has obtained the passage to enter the state, Yanmen Pass and Ningwu Pass are just two different passages!
Now it's a matter of sticking to one level, and if the remaining two levels can be kept, the cost is not big, then keep it, and if the cost is too great, you have to give up at the right time!
Of course, this is under the condition that the soldiers and horses of the Han Kingdom are coming quickly, if the soldiers and horses of the Han Kingdom are slow, then none of the Sanguan Yue Fei will let it out!
Pacing quickly in the Shuai's Mansion, the captured soldier Yue Fei was not interested in taking a look, and measured the diameter of the lobby in the Shuai's Mansion with his feet over and over again, and even in the middle of the night, he couldn't sleep peacefully, waiting for the news from the front.
It's not that Yue Fei is nervous, but now is the world of great controversy, the sooner the world is calm, then the people of the world will suffer less!
……
On the dock, it is already brightly lit, and dozens of Wuya giant ships are sailing day and night, constantly transporting craftsmen, people, soldiers and horses!
A day later, the fortifications on the periphery of the pass had begun to bear fruit, Yue Fei sent a group of soldiers and horses to guard everywhere, and continued to strengthen the outer defense line, at this time, a group of cavalry held high the banner and came from the north.
It was not the enemy, but the elite cavalry of the Sui army, but at this time, the outer guards had already met and probed their identities before allowing them to pass, and they were not even allowed to enter the inner city, most of them could only be stationed in the military camp outside the city, and only the leader could enter the city to deliver the news, and after a while, there were voices chanting Wansheng in the city, and the good news of victory was reported to everyone.
In the grassland north of Shuofang City, Bai Qi defeated more than 100,000 people under the command of Liu Yuan, who were about to return to the army, killing and wounding more than 20,000, capturing more than 30,000, and the remaining defeated soldiers scattered all over the place!
This is a big win! Since Bai Qi came out of the plug, but for more than a month, the Khitan has been broken. Win the three levels and destroy the Huns, this is the style of the ancient famous generals!
Gao Jie's message has been transmitted to Chang'an, and the Great Sui will have one more position as the prince of the town!
This made Yue Fei a little envious, he and Bai Qi were both in the position of candidates, and now Bai Qi has taken the lead, I heard that the Ming Kingdom in the south is about to be destroyed, so Qi Jiguang estimates that he may also win the position of the Duke of Zhenguo, and he will be inferior to them!
Yue Fei is a little envious, he is not jealous, he can also win the position of the Duke of Guo, after destroying the Han Kingdom, presumably the Great Sui will have one more Duke of the Kingdom, that is him!
Not long after this good news, Yue Fei got another good news on the second day, Zhang Xian had won the Jiuyuan County City!
It is said that after the Jiuyuan county town got the information that the pass was lost, almost the whole army sent back and forth, and the enemy was as many as more than 30,000, which happened to meet Zhang Xian's cavalry in the north, and then Zhang Xian broke through more than 30,000 enemy troops in one fell swoop!
The summons said that Zhang Xian broke 30,000 with 10,000 and beheaded countless people, while Yue Fei's estimate of 30,000 enemy troops may be an exaggeration, as far as he knows, the standing strength in Jiuyuan County is only 10,000 people, and the several military cities under Jiuyuan can all be gathered to have 30,000 people, but it is impossible to bring out all the soldiers and horses, although the Jiuyuan County Guard can still levy some troops, but with the speed of his troops, there will be no time for him to mobilize the whole county.
Jiuyuan County was able to send most of the troops, and it should have been after getting the news that Bai Qi had attacked and destroyed the Huns, and he was shocked and fled in a hurry!
Even the banner of attacking the partial pass may be a lie, otherwise, the news of the loss of the partial pass should have reached him on the same day, if he was really loyal and patriotic, he must have gathered troops and horses at that time!
It can only be that he was still hesitating, and after receiving the news that General Bai Qi had defeated the Huns in the south, he panicked and played a banner in order to escape!
In Yue Fei's estimate, the enemy army engaged with Zhang Xian was about 20,000 people, and the value of this victory was actually not great if he could use 10,000 elite cavalry to defeat twice as many infantry and cavalry mixed troops.
The enemy is only the power of a county, it is said that there should not be many high-level troops, it would be good to have one-third, and it was a sudden encounter, with mental calculation or unintentional, and it was a state of "frightened bird", it is normal to collapse in a battle!
Five days later, after Bai Qi received the news that the reinforcements from Yanmen Pass and Ningwu Pass had arrived, he was completely relieved!
"But that's it! But that's it! ”
Yue Fei laughed in the Shuaifu, during this period of time, the pressure on his body was too great, not only the Son of Heaven and the court were watching his actions, the soldiers below, and the colleagues around him were also staring at him, the people who believed in him gave him pressure, and the people who denied him also gave him pressure, if the three levels were lost, he Yue Fei would lose his reputation!
He can't hold the results of Bai Qi's victory, and he will be under Bai Qi in the future, so he has been thinking about it for a long time, and he has lost some ground!
Although Yue Fei has always had a confident attitude in front of the generals, he has always had a bit of uneasiness in his heart, which is also human nature, fortunately, the Han army reacted too slowly this time, as long as he can hold the three levels next, then his position in the army will be unshakable.
At nightfall, the scouts came back with the latest news, and the cities near the Han army were tightly guarded, and there was no sign of a large army.
"But that's it! But that's it! ”
This is Yue Fei's emotion to the Han army at this time, the importance of the three passes is here, if you don't take advantage of the unstable foothold, wait for the gradual dispatch of the craftsmen and people of the Great Sui, it is impossible to have another chance!
"Order, Shuofang City's Yang Yanzhao Department will go to Yanmen Pass from now on to be the guard of Yanmen and control the soldiers and horses of Yanmen Station!"
"Order, Zhang Xian's department of Jiuyuan County will go to Ningwu Pass from now on to guard Ningwu Pass and control the soldiers and horses of Ningwu Pass!"
"The herald, Han Shizhong is the general of the garrison of Jiuyuan County; The garrison general of Shangjun moved to the garrison general of Shuofang County! ”
"Order, Wang Gui, Yang Wenguang, Yue Lei, Guan Ling, and Cao Ning led their respective departments to escort craftsmen and people to Yanmen Pass and Ningwu Pass!"
A series of orders were handed down, and Yue Fei began to make bold moves in the northern part of the Han Kingdom!
Before, taking into account the possible attack of the Han army, it has been so many days, since the Han army has not yet attacked, it has been relieved in a short time, the Han army must wait to gather enough troops to come again, but by then, Sanguan has changed!
……
"What? What the? ”
Two days ago, Liu Bang in Jinyang City received the message that Sanguan was lost, at first listen, he thought it was still a joke, but after knowing the message, he couldn't believe it was true!
That's the three levels? Sanguan in the north, after he moved from Luoyang to this Jinyang, he renamed this Jinyang Longcheng, and was thinking about preparing soldiers and horses, uniting with the Mongols, and it was bound to regain the territory they occupied from the hands of the Sui people!
Of course, the big husband can bend and stretch, it really can't work, Luoyang doesn't want it, and then burn all the wharves along the river, with the natural danger of the Yellow River, the Sui people will definitely not be able to attack, and then he will take the Han army and civilians ten years to gather ten years of lessons, the future may not be able to rush out of the mountains and rivers, the world!
But why? Why not give him this chance?
The Central Plains don't want it, as long as one state is merged, isn't it okay? What's more, why a sneak attack?
Isn't it for me to sneak attack?
Your Sui State is so powerful, why do you still want to sneak attack?
Liu Bang was crying in the Han Palace, and Liu Bei, who was waiting on the side, followed with tears, sad? This big man in the world must be lost like this!
Liu Bang is okay, and he has tasted the taste of the king in the world, as well as Liu Che and Liu Xiu, but he Liu Bei has not tasted it, when the Han Dynasty was divided into three kingdoms, he only had a piece of land, and he could not be called the emperor of the Han Dynasty!
Now that he is in this world, he didn't even give him this opportunity, thinking that not long ago, he finally forced the Sun family to flee with his power, and the rest were imprisoned in Kaifeng City, and the same was true for the Cao family, but who would have thought that the Sui army would suddenly call, and Kaifeng City fell so quickly, he didn't have time to kill these old enemies!
Like Liu Bang, Liu Bei originally wanted to "lie down and taste the guts" and sit and watch the world in the dangerous place of Bingzhou, but why didn't he give him this opportunity?
