Prince of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 43: Yue Fei came to lure the enemy to go deeper

Views:

This imperial decree made many golden generals frightened, and Jin Taizong was very strict with the defeated generals. If he is in a bad mood, the defeated generals, especially those of the non-Jurchen tribe, can't keep their heads.

The attack on Tokyo in the Song Dynasty was blocked, and Zhao Zhen, the letter king of the Song Dynasty, gradually emerged on Hebei Road in Hedong. There was no force to resist. The people of the Song Dynasty and the rebels who rebelled against the Jin Dynasty were everywhere.

For various reasons, the emperor of the Kingdom of Jin must be in a bad mood, horrible, there is no doubt about it. Although he was forced by the situation. I have to admit the bad status quo, but as long as there is the slightest opportunity to unify the world, he will not miss it. Even if there is a glimmer of hope, he must fight for it.

Now Song Gaozong and Zhao Gou are eager to seek peace, and even dispatched Du Chong to cooperate with the conditions secretly proposed by Jin Bing to disband the rebels or not to support the rebels. So Jin Bing began to go north, ready to encircle all the rebels.

All the messengers sent by Zhao Gou to read the imperial decree were killed or disappeared in the land occupied by the king. Zhao Gou thought it was Jin Ren playing tricks, but Jin Taizong and the generals of Jin Guo knew that this was because Zhao Zhen didn't want to go south. Since you don't want to go south, then I will destroy you.

The entire Daikin Empire has gathered up to 600,000 powerful lineups, consisting of Wanyan Zongwang, Wanyanchang, Wanyan Zongbi, Wanyan Zonghan, Wanyan Xiyin, Wanyan Loushi, Wanyan Zongfu, Wanyanyu (Pu’s family Slaves), as well as the commanders of the Jin Army generals such as Xiao Qian and Wanyan Tara, preparing to carry out a large-scale encirclement and suppression of all the rebels in the areas occupied by the Jin Army.

The generals of the Kingdom of Jin took advantage of Gaozong's preparation to slash the rebels, and quickly swung their troops north to encircle all the rebels on Shandong Lianglu, Hebei Lianglu, Hedong Lianglu, Juyan Road, and Jingzhao Road. All the Jinjun generals followed the emperor's decree and sent troops to attack and kill the rebels.

Zhao Zhen's army of the King of Letters was the prime target of the Jin army's attack. On the first day of October, the east and west sides of the Golden Army gathered 180,000 gold troops. They were divided into three groups and guarded Shouyang all the way; they attacked Jizhou and Wuzhou all the way from the Daming Mansion; they passed Dingzhou all the way and killed Zhending directly.

The news spread to the Xin Wang Yi army, Zhao Zhen urgently called the commanders of the various army He Ma Zheng and Zhao Bangjie's deputy commanders to deploy a counterattack strategy. There are currently two armies in Jizhou, one is Zhao Yun's enemy-breaking army, and the other is Cui Qing's Yuntian army.

The Jin army attacked with the main force, and the two armies were definitely not enough to defend Jizhou, so Zhao Bangjie decided to personally bring the troops of Zhao Songyong and the Jinhu Army to support. And Ma Zheng worked tirelessly, and together with the commander Zhang Ying, took the two troops of the Pegasus Army to assist Liang Xing's Golden Broken Army to garrison Zhending.

At this time, Zhao Qing'er commanded the old camp composed of fifty thousand young men and young soldiers, and together with the Boy Scouts, covered the evacuation of the people. At this moment, the autumn harvest is over, and the food harvested by the rebels plus the looted food is enough for next year. Now they are safest only if they hide in the mountains, so Zhao Qinger ordered the old battalion to throw away everything that could be thrown away, and quickly moved to Taihang Mountain with hundreds of thousands of people to ensure the safety of the army's family members.

Zhao Zhen quickly received news from the rebels from various quarters that the rebels from all sides were engaged in vigorous guerrilla warfare with the golden soldiers. All the rebels followed the King’s advice and succeeded in resisting the Jin army. They will not be annihilated for the time being.

Zhao Zhen immediately summoned the military commanders and told the military commanders on the front line. During the war, all armies will absolutely obey his orders, and offenders will be severely punished.

At this time, a team of 800 cavalry rushed to Jizhou. And the commander of these eight hundred people was Yue Fei who came to join Zhao Zhen.

Yue Fei was dressed in silver armor, red shirt, and tall and mighty. This was the impression Zhao Zhen had when he first saw Yue Fei.

"The humble general Yue Fei pays homage to the King of Letters Chitose! Chitose Chitose Chitose of Chitose!" Yue Fei saw His Royal Highness the King of Letters who was several years younger than him, and immediately bowed down.

He really admired Wang Zhaozhen. On the road, he heard the record of the king of Xin Wang, Zhao Zhen, who possessed a series of noble qualities such as benevolence, love for the people, bravery, and wisdom. Compared with Gaozong Zhao Gou, Xin Wang Zhao Zhen is much stronger. Yue Fei was deeply grateful for his choice.

"Old handsome, your unfinished business, let your Royal Highness and I get up and complete it." Yue Fei thought secretly in his heart.

Zhao Zhen hurriedly helped Yue Fei up, and he immediately declared that the young Yue Fei was the commander of the entire Xin Wang army. After that, I told all the commanders of the front-line army to take Yue Fei as the commander-in-chief of all front-line volunteers.

In the face of the encirclement of the Jin Army, Yue Fei, who had accepted the important task, had no intention of being afraid. He believes that facing the encirclement of the Jin army, he should destroy all the way first.

The other two gold armies are moving from the southeast and northeast to the rebel-occupied areas, and there is not yet a time for effective fighters. The Wanyan Tart and Xiao Qian in Shouyang City were unable to hold on, threatening the west of the rebels at any time. If you don't get rid of this enemy army first, after the two armies on the East Road are encircled, the Xin Wang Yijun will be surrounded on three sides, and the consequences will be disastrous.

Three battlefields require three commanders. However, since the battle between Shouyang and Pingding started first, after solving the battlefield on the west side, Zhao Zhen and Yue Fei could each command a battlefield battle.

As soon as Yue Fei took office, he rushed to Pingding. He personally led himself to use 800 elites as the backbone, supplemented with a large number of reserve training elites, and formed a new army named Beiwei Army.

Yue Fei selects soldiers very carefully, and Yue Fei, a soldier trained by ordinary people, doesn't want it at all. But Yue Fei, a soldier trained by Zhao Zhen, rushed to ask for it.

Because after sufficient food, except for the most elite Boy Scouts who train in their own strongest way, other soldiers Zhao Zhen also trains soldiers according to the training mode of ordinary special forces and field soldiers in the future.

The recruits trained by Zhao Zhen, everyone trained to fight each other, knew the key points of human beings, were proficient in the key points of attack with their own weapons, and had all killed the prisoners of the Jurchen. All of them are elite soldiers who can go up the mountain to kill the beasts, get up for war, and get off the horse for tens of kilometers without falling behind.

These elite soldiers in the name of recruits are already more sturdier than the 800 soldiers in Yue Fei's hands, so Yue Fei naturally wanted them. At the same time, Yue Fei was also impressed by Zhao Zhen's ability. Under such a wise and powerful master, he can not only display his talents, but in the future, it will be Gaozong Zhao Gou who will use means to deal with Zhao Zhen, and Zhao Zhen will also have the strength to fight. Even Zhao Zhen's strength is stronger than Zhao Gou.

Although Zhao Zhen now occupies several million people in the area, because Zhao Zhen's training and elimination rate is too high, and other troops are also replenishing troops, Yue Fei can't get too much force.

However, with Zhao Zhen's strong support, Yue Fei also established the Three Armies Beiwei Army, a total of 15,000 people. Two of the commanders of the Three Armies Beiwei Army were appointed by Yue Fei, and the other was appointed by Xin Wang Zhao Zhen himself.

Yue Fei appointed Yue Zhen and Xu Qing as the commanders of the First and Second Army of the Beiwei Army. However, the leader appointed by Zhao Zhen was a teenager. When Yue Fei went north, he took in a 15-year-old boy named Zhang Xian. Although this boy is not very old, he is skilled and proficient in marksmanship. Is a rare talent.

But no matter what the reason, Zhao Zhen promoted a newcomer and immediately appointed him as the leader of the five thousand soldiers and horses, which surprised everyone. However, everyone thinks that it is because Zhao Zhen is young that he promoted the younger ones.

As for Yue Fei, he didn't pay much attention to this matter. What he thought all his life was how to fight against gold and how to restore rivers and mountains. As for the others, it will be ignored. Since the believer Zhao Zhen said about Zhang Xianxing, then take a look for yourself. As long as Zhang Xian can really lead the army to victory, then there is no need to say anything.

In addition to Yue Fei's army expansion, Zhao Zhen also expanded his guard battalion into a guard army, still led by Zhao Xiaodao. He actually wanted to change his name to the Guards, but because the name was banned, he was still the Guards.

After Yue Fei quickly established the Three Army Beiwei Army, he immediately rushed to Pingding. The Shenshan Army under the command of Liu Xi, the Feng Lei Army under the command of Wu Feng, the Crazy Leopard Army under the command of Liu Sange, and the Black Dragon Infantry under the command of General Xi Renfan Gan Guduo are all subject to their control and follow their military orders.

According to Yue Fei's strategy, the enemy should be sent out to besiege the city and fight for aid. Zhao Zhen asked Yue Fei to draw out all the Shouyang gold army, annihilate the enemy army and seize Shouyang and threaten Taiyuan to contain the gold army.

"In order to lure all the Shouyang Golden Army out, I have discussed with King Xin. I plan to abandon the Pingding Ding and give the Shouyang Golden Army the illusion that our army is preparing to break through to the east, forcing it to bring out all the troops in the city. ."

Yue Fei pointed a map and said to Liu Xi, who was in charge of Pingding, "You arrange for some people to stay in the Pingdingzuo city. Once the Golden Army kills, they will abandon the city and throw away the baggage and livestock. The Golden Army must take advantage of the situation and take advantage of it. Then he took the opportunity to fight out, and cooperated with the ambush soldiers in the city to surround him between the city and the wild, enticing the golden soldiers from Shouyang to go out again."

Both Wu Feng and Liu Xi frowned and were very worried. They only think that their Lord Gongxin Wang Zhao Zhen is powerful, and they can win the battle by following him. Suddenly, the handsome Yue Fei came here, and he was still a young man in his twenties, suddenly feeling a little confused.

Liu Xi said: "There are too many golden army, even if Pu Jianu leads his troops west to destroy the other rebels. Shouyang still has more than 30,000 people. One of our army is on the Hebei battlefield, and there are only 30,000 soldiers on the Hedong battlefield. More than 5,000 people will definitely not be able to encircle them. If they rush to kill and disturb the retreating people, and the 100,000 people who calm down suddenly collapse, the situation will be out of control."

"My goal is not only Shouyang, but also Taiyuan." Yue Fei disapproved and said lightly: "Paling down the battlefield is just a decoy. We and the main force of the Jin army are settled, but we want to attract all the Jinjun in the direction of Taiyuan and Shouyang. Ping down the city. In order to give the dragon and wolf soldiers enough time to attack Shouyang and even Taiyuan, and then cut off the golden army's retreat. Even if we can't surround the golden army, we can let them collapse without fighting."

Yue Fei continued to patiently explain his tactics and strategies to the generals, and immediately let the rebel veterans who came out of Wumashan understand and stop talking.

Zhao Zhen is a genius, and he is invincible. Since he has absolute certainty to hand over the important task to Yue Fei, it shows that this Yue Fei really has the ability. And looking at what Yue Fei said, it is estimated that this person is really capable. Then you don't need to worry too much, as long as you organize the retreat of the people in Pingding City to ensure that the people will not collapse due to panic and fight your own battle.

Shouyang, especially Taiyuan, has a tall city, and the main force of the rebels is on the Hebei battlefield, so if you fight Shouyang and Taiyuan, you can only outsmart, not attack. Everyone had discussed this matter a long time ago, and they agreed that they would rely on the bought-in Shouyang and the Han generals in Taiyuan to do the internal response.

"Those Han generals surrendered to the Golden Soldiers only because they were afraid of death. All of them dared not agree, and they pushed back and forth, and even the lions opened their mouths and asked us to give money first."

Zhang Ketao, the head of the spy war department in charge of the matter, said with a smile, "A few days ago, I designed to plot that they were not abiding by military discipline, and I also let the Jinjun Jurchen generals find out that Jinbing generals beat them again. Some people even kicked them. They were all discounted, and then I sent someone to give them money. Only then did they agree to us, and only after the golden army in the two cities came out, their internal support will be able to play a role."

"Is it reliable?" Yue Fei was really good at fighting. However, he is not proficient in these insidious damage tricks after all, so he is a little worried.

"There will be no problem." Zhang Ketao said with a smile: "The marching Sima Gao Yunfei played well in this game. The generals of the Han army are greedy for money and small-minded, and they are afraid of death. Faced with the arbitrary killing of the golden soldiers, They also know that there is no good fruit to follow the Jinren. As long as they are given enough money, not to mention a city of Taiyuan and Shouyang, even their own Laozi, they would dare to sell. If the golden army in the city came out and was defeated by us. These Han people Seeing that the situation is favorable, the general will of course offer the city and surrender."

"We are ready for both hands." Yue Fei said to the other generals little by little, "Hebei Two Routes Golden Army hasn't come over yet, we still have time. Therefore, His Royal Highness Xin Wang will command the newly-built Bohai General Gao Yulong. The third army of the Black Dragon Army led by him was also sent in. If there is a mistake, his army will cooperate with the five thousand people led by Gan Guduo. Together with some defenders in Leping and Fushan, they can gather more than 10,000 people. The Third Army of the Black Dragon Army led by Gao Yulong was lying in ambush behind Jin Bing on the scheduled battlefield."

Yue Fei pointed to the map and continued to say to the generals: "Don’t worry, if Gan Guduo cannot take Shouyang in a short time, Gao Yulong will quickly withdraw from the battlefield and march towards Shouyang. And the third army of the Wei army will be led by Xin Wang Qiansui. Zhang Xian, who was appointed personally, took the place of the encirclement. The Golden Army was surrounded on all sides, and there was no possibility of breaking through and returning to the city. Both Shouyang and Taiyuan are empty cities, and they can go down overnight."

"Well, tell the army that after we spill the bait, he can evacuate Pingding City and put the Jin army in." Yue Fei said, "Lord Liu Xi, when the people of Pingding and Leping evacuate, your Ma Jun must break back and take cover, and it is absolutely not allowed to abandon the people, causing the situation to get out of control, otherwise it will be killed without mercy." Although Yue Fei was young, he was full of authority.

After receiving Jin Taizong's order to attack immediately, and not to stop, Wanyan Tat would only send troops with Xiao Qian to attack the rebels in the direction of Ping Dingzhou.

In order to raise troops for the attack on the rebels, Wanyan Tatlan transferred 20,000 troops from Taiyuan City and nearby towns, which were already low in strength, and dispatched troops immediately.

Wan Yan Tat lazy commanded the army to advance, and to his left was Xiao Qian's 10,000 patchwork army of Han and Xi people. On the right is the 10,000 Han army of Guo Yaoshi who was demoted here because of the defeat. And Wanyan Tara personally led the Central Route Army with as many as 20,000, marching towards Pingdingzhou. The three-way army was about forty thousand people, lined up in a "pin" shape, and launched an attack on the rebels in the direction of Pingding City.

The Volunteers near Pingding City are backed by Pingding City and Fushan. Pingding City is guarded by Wu Feng’s Fenglei Army. Fushan is the Shenshan Army led by Liu Xi, and Liu Sange and his nephew Liu Shaner lead the Wild Leopard Army. Parties. On the surface, the 15,000 rebels, relying on the advantage of the terrain, tried their best to block the golden army.

The Jinjun's morale was like a rainbow, and from commanders to ordinary soldiers, they were full of confidence in this battle. Now the main force of the believers in the Wang Yi army is preparing to cope with the encirclement and suppression of hundreds of thousands of the main force of the Golden Army in Hebei. As long as they successfully occupy the front line of Pingding prefecture, it is equivalent to breaking the connection between Pingding prefecture and the main force of the Xinwang army. Moreover, he threatened Xin Wang Yijun from behind, ready to insert a knife behind the main force of Xin Wang Yijun at any time. They will narrow the encirclement. At this time, as long as the main force of the Jin army in the direction of Daming Mansion and Shandong Road takes advantage of the momentum, the army of Xinwang will be defeated.

On the tenth day of October, Wan Yan Tart Lazy repeatedly won the battle, and paid the price of thousands of people to occupy the empty city of Pingding. He believed that he had secured the victory, and immediately reported victory to Emperor Taizong, and at the same time ordered Guo Yaoshi to gather his army and prepare for a new offensive.

Yao Shi accepted it frankly. This was normal. He took refuge in Song State in Liao State, and then in Jin State. He was rebellious and rebellious, although he had some abilities, he was appreciated by some Jin Guo generals.

But he knew that Jin Guoren despised himself as a cartilage. I have been defeated many times by King Xin's army. It was impossible to retain his official position, but as long as I didn't cut my head, I was lucky.

As for myself and a group of subordinates, relying on the merits of killing Ping Dingzhou to believe in Wang Yijun, even if they can't be promoted and raised, it is not a problem to retain their current official positions. This step is finally right.

Later, Wanyan Tara personally commanded Xiao Qian, Guo Yaoshi and his own army of more than 17,000 to attack Fushan. The commanders of each army personally stepped forward to the warlord and fought hard for two days, and finally defeated the Xin Wangyi army under heavy losses and successfully captured Fushan.

On October 16th, the Jin Army went straight to Quleping City. Along the way, discarded weapons and equipment were everywhere. It can be seen that the Xin Wang Yi army was in chaos and the soldiers and civilians were eager to flee.

The Jin army attacked the city of Leping, but when they arrived at Leping they found that the army of King Xin had abandoned the city and fled. The people in the city immediately dispersed, and the whole city was full of fleeing people.
