Wanyanchang (lazy), Wanyan Zongbi (wushu), Liu Yu, and Wanyan Xiyin hurriedly reluctantly gathered two hundred thousand golden soldiers to fight. This is also almost all the troops they can mobilize in Hebei, Shandong, and Yanjing Mountain.
In this way, 200,000 Jin Bing and 150,000 Xin Wang Jun met in Mingzhou. The two armies met in Xin'an City, Mingzhou.
At this moment, Wang Jin looked from a distance to see the densely packed joint camp of the Golden Soldiers. According to preliminary estimates, the Golden Army was an army composed of 50,000 cavalry and 150,000 infantry.
But looking at the opponent's army, Yue Fei shook his head, compared to his own army lineup, the opponent was far behind. A few horses came back. They sat on the horses and saluted Wang Jin: "My lord, they only have one big flag. There is only one big flag. This is the most stupid military strategy in this era. Just aim at it. That big flag launched a main attack. As soon as the flag fell, the enemy's entire army would lose morale, and it would very likely become a rout, and the entire army would be wiped out.
Moreover, in the battle of hundreds of thousands of people, a large number of troops cannot be commanded by one person. In other words, a person can only lead the army in a single direction, and cannot be flexible.
And the use of soldiers in the King’s Army is about deceitful tactics. Don't fight head-on, drag you, hit your side! Or beheading an assault. There are also tactics such as sneak attacks, ambushes, guerrillas, and harassment. Anyway, the Xin Wang Jun adopted a tactic of fighting as he could with less losses and more annihilation of the enemy.
At this moment, Zhang Xian came, and Zhang Xian’s strength of the back Wei army was now the most commanded and commanded army, and he was already the most powerful army leader under him.
The first army of the Beiwei Army led Yue Zhen, the second army of the Beiwei Army led Xu Qing, the three army leaders of the Beiwei Army Yang Jin, the fourth army commander of the Beiwei Army Jin Biao, the fifth army commander of the Beiwei Army Guan Ling, and the sixth army commanded of the Beiwei army Yang Zaixing, Luo Yanqing, commander of the Seventh Army of the Beiwei Army, Wu Shangzhi, commander of the Eighth Army of the Beiwei Army, Meng Bangjie, the commander of the Nine Army of the Beiwei Army, and Yang Hu, the commander of the Tenth Army of the Beiwei Army, were on both sides of Zhang Xian.
Although Zhang Xian had a high position, he became the commander of the Chinese army. However, in this battle, Zhang Xian was instructed, and Yue Fei and the commander-in-chief's mansion instructed him to obey the command that also controlled Wang Jin.
Fortunately, Zhang Xian did not resist this, because the two had cooperated in previous battles. In addition, Wang Jin has a special status, and he is like a relative of the Lord Gongxin Wang Zhaoying, and he has high qualifications. Therefore, Zhang Xian accepted Wang Jin's leadership very much.
"General Wang Jin!" Zhang Xian let the ten commanders line up the troops to prevent the enemy from attacking. After Zhang Xian arranged the generals, he immediately went to the army commander account, and after seeing Wang Jin, he immediately saluted Wang Jin.
Wang Jin responded, and the two smiled at each other. Then they walked up to the high slope and looked at the golden army camp in the distance. Zhang Xiandao: "The general doesn't want to fight head-on?" Wang Jin nodded and said, "Their combat effectiveness is very strong. Although they have been at a disadvantage in fighting with us, the Jinbing still has a strong combat effectiveness."
Zhang Xian nodded and said, "Most of their soldiers are not from the Jurchen tribe, and as we fought more and more victories, the Jin soldiers suffered heavy casualties, and the reduction in the manpower of various races increased the proportion of Han people outside the Guan and Han soldiers from the descendants. So fighting is not like those barbarians desperately trying their best. If we are stronger, the golden soldiers will surrender too."
Wang Jin said: "The gold man was cunning and sent Liu Taifei Nan to Zhao Gou's place, in fact, he wanted to join Zhao Gou to attack us. But they never thought, but we wanted to launch a fierce attack on them when the lord went south. . They are too self-righteous, thinking that we won't be able to fight without the lord..."
"However, now they know it. Unfortunately, we have already occupied a lot of sites, and tens of thousands of people have become our captives... But we can only use 15 bowmen to fight this battle."
"Because of the scattered forces, Yue Shuai and Ma Shuai led an army of 150,000 on Bianjing Road. We still have an army of 100,000 to defend the north, and the army under Zhao Shuai has to confront Wanyanfu. In this case, we only rely on us. These 150,000 people will be hit head-on, and even if they can win, they will lose too much. Therefore, it is better to avoid them first and then look for opportunities!"
Zhang Xian nodded and said: "Yes, but we have to lead them by the nose and fight for the initiative on the battlefield! Let the enemy fight on the battlefield we set."
Wang Jin looked at this young man who was a few years younger than Xin Wang Zhao Zhen, and sighed in his heart for Xin Wang Zhao Zhen's ability to recognize people. This charter is really a young genius, and his tactical tactics deeply believe in the essence of Wang Zhaozhen, which coincides with his own ideas.
Wang Jin jumped off the horse and took out the map, Zhang Xian also jumped off the horse, and the two of them gathered around the map. Wang Jin said: "We want to lead them away, so we head south, and we head south, where there is a mountain forest and ice ditch with complex topography. We can use the terrain to block them there. We can use the plan, and it will all be wiped out all at once. They. Once this army was wiped out, the Jin Army was in Hebei and Henan, and there were only a group of low-combat Han soldiers and Jin soldiers' stragglers. At that time, we can quickly occupy the territory, the remaining golden soldiers, We kill if we want to kill, we kill if we want to kill!"
Zhang Xian said: "Then how to fight this battle, you should talk about it! You command me to follow the order." Wang Jin laughed and said: "You are welcome, since General Zhang said so, I am not hypocritical! Please see General Zhang. , In this unnamed mountain forest, the terrain is complex, with forests, ditch and rivers everywhere. How about General Zhang's opinion?" Zhang Xian said, "Naturally."
"Then you and I will divide the troops, lead the enemy all the way, and separate a group of people who will kill the golden soldiers and lead the golden soldiers to pursue them. Then go around to the enemy's rear by another way. In the mountains and forests, our troops can attack with fire, and the fire will burn. The mountain sealed them to death. Normally, when we set fire to the mountains and forests, they would not be able to escape more than half of them. At that time, if our army completely killed them, at least half of the Han army would definitely be Lose the army's will to fight, so our army can recruit them in an all-round way!" Wang Jin said.
Zhang Xian said: "Excuse me, General, who will lead the enemy?" Wang Jin said calmly: "Naturally, it is you. I will control Wang Yan and the Yanlong Army to command Yu Hualong, the Fenglong Army to command Lu Wenlong, and the Shilong Army to command Liu Guoshen. Raptors commander Shi Quanqiang and Dragon Army commander Wang Xin's men and horses are all mobilized for you."
Since Xin Wang Zhao Zhen took control of Sichuan, Wang Yan was reactivated by Zhao Zhen. At the beginning, Wang Yan imagined that with the support of the old marshal Zongze, he would join forces with the king of the letter Zhao Zhen to fight the Jinbing to recover the mountains and rivers. As a result, the sudden death of Zongze led to the rise of Zhao Gou's surrender faction, including the old commander Zongze and all the anti-golden generals' efforts were wasted.
This time, Wang Yan finally figured out that he wants to continue to play for the country. However, this time he didn't surrender to the surrendered Zhao Gou. He wanted to surrender to Zhao Zhen who was determined to fight against gold.
Zhang Xian said, "My lord will separate a man and a horse to set fire to the mountain and encircle and annihilate the enemy. Can it work?" Wang Jin said, "Don't worry."
After the two discussed the details, Wang Jin smiled and said, "Well, that's it. This time, they will definitely have a comeback!"
Originally, after Wanyan Zongbi (Wu Shu) returned to the north, the nobles of the Jin Kingdom decided to use the concubine Li Guifei who had sent Huizong, that is, Zhao Zhen's biological mother, to Zhao Gou's hands, using divisive tactics to provoke the fight between the two.
But what he didn't expect was that when Xin Wang Zhaozhen went south to Yuezhou and surrendered to Zhao Gou on the surface, but actually wanted to welcome his mother, Xin Wang Jun’s Mansion straightened out the rule without the leadership of Xin Wang Zhao Zhen. Everything, Bing Feng turned around.
Now that Wang Jun is not believing in Wang Zhaozhen, he is even more crazy than Wang Zhaozhen. The remnants of the wind swept and attacked the territory of the Kingdom of Song that was occupied by the Kingdom of Jin. All Jin Bing and Jin Guo officials who resisted were either killed or arrested. Every property was confiscated, and people were punished as slaves.
Wanyanchang (lazy), Wanyan Xiyin, and Wanyan Zongbi (Wu Shu) join forces with Liu Yu, who has just bribed the top of Jin Guo to become emperor. They gathered an army of two hundred thousand and marched westward in one fell swoop, preparing to defeat the surging army of King Xin.
"Generals, you must obey the orders and attack the enemy in all parts. Don't be greedy, as long as you hurt them, we will run. As long as we defeat them, the entire Hebei will be ours!" Zhang Xian mobilized Said the army.
After going through a series of failed battles and the loss of losing troops and losing generals. Facing the letter to Wang Jun, Jin Jun fell into absolute passivity.
This kind of passiveness caused them to lose morale and their military strength when they faced the believing king's army. Overnight, after a sneak attack on the Jin Bing, the Xin Wang Jun secretly reduced by half, and the tents were not reduced, so that Jin Bing was overwhelmed by the fact that he did not find half of the Xin Wang Jun in his forehead.
At this time, with Zhang Xian's 75,000 soldiers and horses, 200,000 golden soldiers could not stop the attack of King Xin's army at all. Zhang Xian fights every day and disperses or deploys as soon as he fights. The Golden Soldiers are repeatedly attacked tragically.
In this way, Jin Bing gave Zhang Jun a daily raid, night attack, and bow and artillery attack. Every day, there were more and more deaths in Jin Bing. Until Wanyanchang (lazy), Wanyan Xiyin and Wanyanchang (lazy), Liu Yu and others collapsed. They desperately pursued the Xinwang army who tried to escape, and wanted to avenge the soldiers who were killed by Xinwang's sneak attacks, surprise attacks and other despicable tactics.
In this way, Jin Bing chased into a dense forest, and more than 70,000 troops entered the mountain forest without even a shadow. Wan Yan Chang (lazy), Wan Yan Xiyin, Wan Yan Chang (lazy) and Liu Yu immediately led the army into the forest and fought a forest chase with King Xin's army.
At this time, the night was dark, but the golden army army did not find any Song army. At this moment, the Jinbing Junzhai who had just set up the camp suddenly rang the drums and shouted horses. Obviously they have also sensed the danger, although they are not sure what happened, but there must be an abnormality.
Because they did not find a letter to the king's army, and the horizon seems to be red, all this is too strange. Wan Yan Chang (lazy), Wan Yan Xiyin and Wan Yan Chang (lazy), as well as Liu Yu and several senior Jinjun leaders are all observing the abnormal changes around them in doubt.
At this time, the sky is getting brighter and brighter, the flames are getting higher and higher, and the roaring night wind is getting stronger and stronger. The fire took advantage of the wind, the stronger the wind, the more vigorous the fire, the skyrocketing fire burned over, and the burning smell of trees can be clearly smelled in the air.
Just when the fear in Jin Bing's heart reached its extreme, endless fires burst into the sky. In an instant, the flame reflection illuminates the black sky, and the sky is full of huge flames, and the whole night seems to be burning.
Fire broke out all around the forest. The golden soldiers boiled instantly, and all the golden soldiers came to their senses. People yelled, talked, ran away, and made a mess.
This is not a miraculous sign from heaven, nor is it an army. For Jin Bing, this was a sudden and huge disaster. The Golden Soldiers are no longer obedient to command. Starting from the Han army, all the Golden Soldiers have begun to flee and run backwards, otherwise they will be buried in the flames.
However, there was fire all around. Obviously, the believers from all directions lit the flames, preparing to burn the golden soldiers to death in the mountains and forests.
At this time, Liu Yu was trembling all over because of excessive panic. "General Wanyanchang, we... Let's run away, hurry up..." Wanyan Zongbi (Wu Shu) widened his eyes and screamed, "The fire is about to burn, let's go."
At this time, after the fire, in the ruins, countless soldiers of the Royal Army rushed from all directions. The thick smoke billowed, and all the golden soldiers endured the choking smoke. Many of the golden soldiers fell to the ground one after another and were fainted by the thick smoke. What awaits them is to become coke.
Where to go? Except for the big fire all around, I believe in the king's army. If you believe in the king's army, the golden army will not be able to go. At this time, the army broke through, and the army broke up in an instant.
The fire became more and more prosperous. Because the King of Letters Army used black kerosene, which was named Petroleum by King of Letters Zhao Zhen. Therefore, in a short period of time, large tracts of mountain forests were burned. The whole night was illuminated by the raging fire as bright as day, and the huge monstrous flame roared in the wind, with a terrifying aura.
The Jin army began to retreat. They discarded the camp, discarded their baggage, and ran away in the opposite direction of the flame. The Jin army was in chaos, especially those Han soldiers who yelled and yelled. Many people lost control and fled, but they were soon either burned to death or shot to death by the Xin Wang army.
Faced with a terrible disaster, Jin Bing chaos became a pot of porridge. They ran away frantically to survive, hurling their lives. However, even if he escaped from the sea of flames, he would face the massacre that surrounded the king's army.
Countless arrows flew, and arrows rained all over the sky. In the woods scorched by flames, more than 150,000 Golden Soldiers and Han Chinese and Golden Soldiers were either unilaterally slaughtered or surrendered. There are also missing. Many Han Chinese who returned home have left Jinbing, and only a small part of Jinbing can or fled back to the famous Dongfang Mansion.
In this battle, Wan Yan Chang (lazy), Wan Yan Xiyin, Wan Yan Chang (lazy), and Liu Yu finally escaped under the protection of the guards. Wan Yan Chang (lazy), Wan Yan Xiyin, Wan Yan Chang (lazy) and Liu Yu fled back to the Daming Mansion with only less than 500 people.
The forests all over the mountains have turned into charcoal ash, although next year, some of the trees here will survive tenaciously and continue to be green. However, it will probably take many years to recover into a mountain forest.
The sky was getting brighter, the flames were still burning, there was constant crackling around, and the sky was full of smoke. Numerous charred corpses were scattered throughout the mountains and forests, and nearly 100,000 prisoners were escorted by the soldiers of the King's Army into Xin'an City occupied by the King's Army.
Following the defeat of Jinbing, Zhang Xian and Wang Jinbing divided into ten groups to recover Cizhou, Weizhou, Baizhou, Junzhou, Huazhou and parts of Daming Mansion.
At this time, Yue Fei and the elderly Ma Zheng led an army of 150,000 to take Zhengzhou, Junzhou, and Xuzhou, and they were approaching Kaifeng Mansion. And the two armies of Wang Jin and Zhang Xian in the north were close to the famous mansion.
The Jin soldiers were unable to resist and retreated one after another, and the Emperor Jin was shocked. Immediately urged the envoy to go south quickly and reach a peace agreement with Zhao Gou. As long as Zhao Gou kills Zhao Zhen, Jin Guo can launch the Central Plains and sign a peace treaty with Zhao Gou.
After the commander of the Spy War Department, Zhang Ketao got the information of the secret spy, he knew that Jin Guo was going to kill with a knife. On the one hand, the Xin Wang Jun secretly sent a large number of spy guards to lurch around the Yue Zhou Xin Wang Zhao Zhen. On the other hand, Xin Wangjun issued a statement that the children of Li Wangfei and Shuang'er are the master, and if Zhao Zhen dies unfortunately, he will immediately stand at attention as the emperor and retaliate against the Southern Song regime that attacked Zhao Gou. Of course, this child is fake and does not exist. Now because Zhao Zhen has been busy, he rarely stays with his official wife Shuang'er and Zhao Qing'er who can give birth to him, so he has no children yet.
As for Dongyu, who is often together, he can't have children for him, because this woman is an enemy, and Zhao Zhen is not willing to cause trouble for himself.
The controller of the Southern Song Dynasty Disc Club secretly took refuge in the Dajidie Li Xuan of the King of Letters, and cooperated with the flying pigeon to pass the news to Zhao Gou. To say that Zhao Zhen has lost control over him is meant to show that Zhao Zhen is alive and harmless, but it is a disaster to kill. On the surface, he signaled Zhao Gou to put Zhao Zhen under house arrest and not to hurt Zhao Zhen, but in fact he was preparing for Zhao Zhen's future escape.
At this time, Zhao Zhen, who had bankrupted countless ministers and families, secretly sent someone to transport a large amount of six million taels of silver to the land occupied by the Northern Xinwang Army. In this regard, Xin Wang Jun need not worry about food for a while.
At this time, Xin Wang Zhao Zhen began to focus his thoughts on Han Shizhong, who was an excellent general in both land and water. His military talent is actually not much worse than Yue Fei. He is also Zhao Zhen's first candidate to lead the water war in the future.
Of course, Zhao Zhen did not expect Han Shizhong to take refuge in him now, as long as he has a good impression of him. For this reason, Zhao Zhen has been working with ministers and generals to cover up his purpose.
And Zhao Gou has also begun to come into contact with this legendary younger brother Zhao Zhen. Although he has great ambitions, he also has a kind of thinking for the clan family, although this kind of thinking is really small compared to his own desire for power. However, when he is fully capable, he still has to inherit his family's bones and blood.
