Prince of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 81: The Golden Army breaks through

Views:

On the surface of the salt lake, countless rafts quickly drew ashore. Countless soldiers pulled their horses off the raft and quickly lined up. The speed of the line made the Jin Jun amazed. In just a stick of incense, the cavalry got off the raft and lined up to attack. The speed of the whole army's formation of the team is simply unbelievable.

Rows of troops riding on war horses charged towards the flanks of the Jin Army. Whose cavalry, and when will Li Yanxian have any cavalry? This is clearly the iron cavalry that believes in the king's army! Wan Yan Lou felt her eyes black.

Moved to the Wanyanlou room on a hillside to observe and saw more infantrymen behind the cavalry. Looking at the densely packed Song Jun rushing from the shore, Wanyan Loushi was surprised and unacceptable. At this time, a banner of Song Jun was erected, and the boss had a "Li" on it. All and everything has let them know that what they are facing will be Li Yanxian's army and the cavalry army who is suspected of believing in the king's army who does not know where they are coming out!

However, what the Jinren didn't know was that the iron cavalry in the Li Yanxian army on the opposite side was not someone else's army, it was the Renshi near the Beiminghai that commanded the Golden Dragon Army, and so was the beast. At this time, the beast was full of black helmets and black armor, robes and belts, and packed up a giant club with fangs, and rushed up with the Golden Dragon Army, a subordinate of the Imperial Guard with five thousand disguised as Li Yanxian Army.

The soldiers of the Jin Army watched here, watching the Song Army subway riders appearing behind them. "Dutong, we have been fooled, this is a conspiracy..." The Jinren have no luck, because they will face the attack of the face and the rush of the New Forces subway riders.

"Don't panic... We can definitely kill... Go out..." When Wanyan Lou said this sentence, he saw the Song Army cavalry appearing in the other directions of the echelon. The commander of the Shenlong Army of the Imperial Guard, Yang Fan, and the leader of the Yinlong Army of the Imperial Guard, Yan Chengfang, led the cavalry of his unit to charge up.

In fact, Beast, Yang Fan, and Yan Chengfang all rushed to the mountain path from the north of Xinwang occupied area immediately after receiving Zhao Zhen's order. The development of Shitiao Mountain made Zhao Zhen feel the lack of troops, so he directly mobilized half of the soldiers and horses of the Imperial Guard. Zhao Zhen knew that the more the Golden Army to contain or annihilate here, the safer her old base would be.

At this time, Li Yanxian, Shao Xing, Shao Long and Shao Yun led about 13,000 infantry soldiers also rushed over. At this time, the reinforcement force directly reached more than 28,000.

Countless armies appeared one by one around the golden army. This is really a conspiracy. The opponent is about to encircle them. Now, Zhao Zhen led the guards to kill a lot of the Golden Soldiers, and he is even more flustered. Such a flustered morale has rapidly reduced the combat effectiveness of the Golden Soldiers.

The rumbling battle drum rang like thunder, and Xin Wang Jun sang their battle hymn vigorously! "The smoke is rising, the country looks north..." Immediately, the black and heavy cavalry group attacked the Golden Army from all sides.

Zhao Zhen led two guards with a total of 10,000 people and fought more than 30,000 golden soldiers. The Guards fought the Jinbing for a full hour and a half, and they were exhausted and suffered heavy losses. In the face of the nearly 30,000 Song troops who rushed in, among them there were 15,000 well-trained cavalry, the Jin Army was terrified.

Fifteen thousand cavalry, with the ten thousand guards personally led by Xin Wang Zhao Zhen, and Li Yanxian's infantry, completed a perfect surround encirclement of the golden soldiers. This time, everyone apparently set up a killing intent. They surrounded the Golden Soldiers in an all-round way. This was to kill them all.

On the high slope far away, General Jinjun and Du Tong Yan Lou's room watched this thrilling scene, sweating in this obviously cold weather.

Because of the brave and fierce killing of the enemy from the ground letter Wang Jun, the Jin Jun’s current strategy is slightly different from that in history, but the main attack direction is the same. Originally, the Kingdom of Jin planned to return to the division to concentrate its forces on the Xinwang army after defeating the Zhao Gou court in the Southern Song Dynasty. And Xin Wang Jun also bluffed, claiming that he has hundreds of thousands of soldiers, but in fact there are only tens of thousands of elite soldiers, and there is a serious shortage of food and grass, and there is no ability to continue to expand and attack the golden soldiers. Therefore, both sides focus on defense, and secretly communicate with each other.

Although Zhao Zhen had never agreed to the Jinjun envoy's request for peace, and did not even meet the Jinjun envoy for peace, but the two sides had actually reached a tacit understanding and did not take the initiative to send troops to attack each other.

But the so-called peace agreement and tacit agreement are the most false and hypocritical. The two parties who believe in the Wang Jun and the Jin Jun are actually a strategy adopted because they continue to fight for more than their gains. Because the main force of the Jin army wants to go south, and the believer king wants to train arms. Once the war continues, Jin Guo's strategy of annexing a large amount of land in the south will be delayed and variables will appear. Once the King Xinjun fought against the Golden Soldiers, facing a large number of Golden Soldiers advancing, the grain and livestock under its jurisdiction would surely suffer heavy losses, which would even cause food shortages.

Therefore, the two sides have always kept their faces open. The King of Letters Zhao Zhencai deliberately led the most elite army, disguised as the King of Letters army to develop outside the occupied area.

Now, Wanyan Lou's room can also see it. In the Song Dynasty army under Zhao Gou's rule, there was not such a large number of elite cavalry troops. Only after several times intercepted and killed countless cows, horses and sheep of the Golden Army and defeated the horses captured by the Golden Army, the Xin Wang Army had a large number of cavalry. Therefore, Wanyan Lou's room is completely certain that the person who came across was Xin Wang Jun disguised as Song Jun.

However, even if they knew that they believed in the king's army, Wanyan Lou had nothing to do. The main force of the Golden Army is now attacking the south and is achieving brilliant results. In Zhao Gou's ***, after the "Miao Liu Zhibian" was suppressed, the prime minister Zhu Shengfei took the blame and resigned. Zhao Gou appointed Lu Yihao as the prime minister, and Zhang Jun knew about the Privy Council.

Zhao Gou, Emperor Gaozong of the Song Dynasty, saw that the Jin army was going southward and the current situation was dangerous, so he ordered Jiangning Mansion to be renamed Jiankang Mansion. In May of the third year of Jianyan (1129), he moved north from Hangzhou and stationed here. At this time, he issued an order to fight against the gold, ditching and diverting water in the Jianghuai area to block the Jin Dynasty cavalry. He also appointed Zhang Jun as the disposal envoy of Xuanfu in Sichuan, Shaanxi, and authorized him to organize the fight against gold in Shaanchuan. Li Yanxian is under his jurisdiction in name.

At this time, Zhao Gou still did not give up his claim to seek peace from Jin. As soon as he arrived in Jiankang, he sent Hong Hao as the "Dajintong Envoy" and sent Hong Hao to bring letters to Wanyan Zonghan for peace. Jin Jun refuses to allow the other party to ask for peace. It can clearly defeat you and occupy a lot of your land. What else? Immediately, Hong Hao was detained in the Jinjun Camp.

In August, that is, not long ago, Gaozong sent Du Shiliang again as "the former envoy of the Great Golden Army" to seek peace. Therefore, the day and the night will be in order. But I hope your Excellency will grieve and forgive yourself." Gaozong Zhao Gou asked Yan Zonghan to give him a way to survive, expressing his willingness to remove the emperor's honorific title and use the Jin Dynasty reign as a courtier of the Jin Dynasty.

Wanyan Zonghan, who was forced to retreat by the Wang Jun, could be regarded as guilty at this time. My brother got on the ground and got it back from my brother. After winning many battles, Wan Yan Zonghan still thought of completely defeating Zhao Goujun and completely occupying a large area to the south, and then returning to the army to avenge his revenge! Where can I agree to his terms.

The senior officials of Jin Guo were not impressed by Zhao Gou's shameless pleading. At the end of August in the third year of Jianyan, the Jin army, led by Wanyan Zongbi (Wu Shu), aggressively attacked Jianghuai, preparing to destroy the Southern Song regime in one fell swoop. Zhao Gou heard the news that Jin Jun went south again, and hurriedly handed over the heavy responsibility of guarding the Yangtze River to Du Chong, who fled from Kaifeng and defeated again and again in the direction of the health north. He asked the Queen Mother Longyou to escape from Jiankang to Jiangxi, and he hurriedly fled from Jiankang to Zhenjiang.

Therefore, at this time, hundreds of thousands of troops of the Jin Army went south to attack the city and plunder the land, robbing countless property and population slaves, and they were simply unable to go north to take the initiative to attack the King Xin Army. Even if it is to fight the grass valley, the Jin army garrisons around the area occupied by King Xin dared not enter the area under King Xin's army. For fear that the grabbing of food from the area occupied by King Xin Wang angered the King Xin army and led to a full-scale war between the two sides. Now believe that Wang Jun takes food as his life. The purpose of Xinwangjun is food-based, and the slogan is "Anyone who grabs my food and livestock is equivalent to going to war with me!"

In addition to this reason, the Xinwang army entrenched here in Zhongtiao Mountain is relatively small, and they add up to 25,000 cavalry, and they also pretend to be Li Yanxian's Song army. This approach prevented Jin Bing from changing his strategy because of this. In addition, Wanyan Lou's house had a hundred thousand troops, and it would be too shameful if he couldn't beat even more than twenty thousand unknown troops. Even if they secretly mobilized troops after the defeat, Wanyan Lou's room could not publicize his defeat to let Jin Taizong know.

The autumn breeze is breezy and the sky is sunny. The horns of the cavalry from all walks of life hummed deep and long, and the iron cavalry of the various armies of the Believe King's army charged with fierceness, obviously trying to kill the killer to cut the grass and roots of the enemy who invaded his homeland! Otherwise, how can you even ignore the military training of "the encirclement of the division must be missed"

The drums of war shook the sky, and the approaching cavalry of the King of Letters began to rush in circles with their expert spear formations. The horsepower accelerated, and 15,000 cavalry rushed toward the Jin army surgingly. This 5,000 carefully crafted cavalry will be trained by Zhao Zhen's knight marksmanship. Can you imagine the fighting power of the Xinwang cavalry? Hold the spear firmly with both arms, and use the inertial spear to stab. You only need the strength of holding the spear, and you can use inertia to exert a mighty force. Thoroughly pierce enemies wearing armor.

The Xinwangjun cavalry who rushed to the front of the Jin soldiers made a stab with their guns when they approached, and then withdrew their horses and ran back to the flanks. Most of the weapons of the Golden Army were scimitars. How could the Golden Army armed with the Scimitar weapons resist this attack by the Xinwangjun Sanlu Cavalry? One shot down, often people are directly stabbed in a big hole. In this era, the level of medical care is very low. As long as the bleeding from the stabbing and the internal organs are injured, it is almost synonymous with death.

Some brave knights from the King’s Army showed off their fighting skills. They stabbed two or three shots in a row, often with two or three golden soldiers. This is the army that Zhao Zhen spent money and food, and used his thousands of years of knowledge to train painstakingly. Zhao Zhen transferred out to fight this war of prestige, but it is a good soldier in his own hands!

Song people are not bad! Although the current Song State was invaded by the Jin Army, the country suffered heavy casualties, the royal family was taken into captivity and the country was in danger. But this is a country that has fought many years of war with the once strongest Liao and the brave Xixia. Wouldn't the people of such a country have any fighting power? The most important thing is that the people can let the Jin army lose the battle. One can imagine the bravery of the Song people. In fact, when the leaders' IQs were completely equal, the strength of the Song State was actually far higher than that of the Jin State. It's just that the emperors of Song Kingdom are more awkward and faint than others. Therefore, he clearly had a strong national power, but was destroyed by a clan that was not as good as his own golden army.

The absence of wise leaders does not mean that the Song people have no fighting power! For a long time, the Song people fought against the Liao army and fought against the Xixia Kingdom. People only saw the weakness of the Song army, but did not think about the circumstances under which the Song army fought against the enemy. The Song State emphasized martial arts and neglected literature, and reached a situation where it could not be attached. A generation of "military god" Di Qing fought Xixia so that Xixia people flee unstoppable. He was ridiculed by a concubine of the civil servant! How sad is this

The Chinese official factions of the Song court ran over each other, and state officials were extremely corrupt. The emperor’s ministers commanded the army indiscriminately, and the army was corrupted severely and had almost no combat effectiveness. In this case, when the army was still able to fight Xixia, it also won a certain victory. In the face of the Golden State army, there were also brave people who cooperated with the local defenders to resist desperately.

And the Zhao family and Jin Jun took it for granted that the Han soldiers and civilians of the Song Dynasty were "weak". Isn't this ridiculous! Now, the Jin army, which had been invading the Song Dynasty and fighting the wind, finally realized that the Song people were not weak.

How powerful the Han people were! The Huns are powerful soldiers in the world, and the Qin army can beat the Huns all over the ground to find teeth. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty could directly move the Xiongnu. In the Tang Dynasty, when the Tang Dynasty attacked the west, Li Bai's hometown was in the bitter cold of Siberia, and Central Asia was patronized by the Tang army.

Han people are naturally very strong! The cavalry formed by the Han is naturally stronger. The difference between cavalry and infantry is speed. In a short period of speed, infantry cannot be compared with cavalry!

This is the reason why the later Huns could not beat the Qin and Han army, but they could run away. In fact, all dynasties formed by the Han people have moved towards a misunderstanding, that is, the use of infantry instead of cavalry. After the Han and Tang Dynasties, all the Han dynasties did not have the ambition to occupy the large grasslands in the north, which led to the disappearance of the bravery of the Central Plains and the lack of cavalry.

And now... Faced with a total of 25,000 elite cavalry carefully trained by Xin Wang Jun and more than 13,000 infantry under Li Yanxian, it is difficult for Jin Jun to run!

"Kill out..." Although Wanyan Lou Shi was almost dizzy and lost the sense of direction, couldn't tell the direction, and didn't even know where he was going. But he was sure that he still had to run. He had never seen such a powerful army before, and he has seen it today.

Maybe there is a strong army in the Jin army that rivals the faithful king army, but now Wanyan Lou's room does not have it. Tens of thousands of Jurchen people made their homes and founded the country and destroyed Liao. At that time, the tens of thousands of Jurchen soldiers were not inferior to the soldiers who believed in the king's army, and even had better physical fitness and personal combat effectiveness. However, the Jinjun, which has now been expanded into a million heroes, wanted half of the original combat effectiveness to be a delusion.

Facing the opposing cavalry with powerful fighting force and ingenious battle formation, fighting with them to death is already synonymous with hunting for death. Didn't you see that large numbers of Golden Army soldiers wailed and died in spears that were stabbed by lightning? However, the soldiers of the Jin Army couldn't bring much damage to the cavalry of Xinwang Army who came and went like wind.

Under the orders of Wanyan Lou's room, the golden soldiers of the brigade began to fight to the death in one direction, trying to break through the encirclement formed by the Xin Wang Jun and Li Yanxian Song Jun.

"It can't be like this. Someone must stop us for a while. Otherwise, our army will lose even more." Dalaha, the marching counsellor in Wanyanlou's room, saw that the situation was not right, and his words reminded Wanyanlou's room.

"Bring Munch, I'll give you five thousand elite soldiers, you block the Song army after you rule the capital, our main force breaks out to the west..."

Originally, a Ulu retreat died, which made Wanyan Lou Shi very distressed. But in the face of the critical moment of your own survival, it is not enough to die a confidant. To survive, then sacrifice another one. In order to survive, Wanyan Lou's room was invested in capital, big capital and blood capital, five thousand elite soldiers and confidantes brought Munch, can you say that this capital is small

Bringing Munch was stunned, he immediately understood the thoughts of Wanyan Loushi, and people are not for their own sake. In order to survive, I can only use my heart to follow Wanyan Lou's self to die. Using other people to complete the Yanlou room is not at ease, afraid of surrendering before the formation, causing the main force of the whole army to be overtaken and annihilated.

"Relax, if you come back alive, I will live up to you, and you will not be able to enjoy the glory and wealth. If you do not come back, your son will inherit your general position, and I promise to take care of them. But if you surrender before the battle, I will slaughter your whole family!" Wanyan Lou Shi was afraid of bringing Munch to change and surrendered to Song Jun. So immediately even promise to scare the road.

He died, and his whole family was also settled. Bring Munch nodded and clasped his fists and said: "Don't worry, Master Dutong, you will never insult your life in the end."

Gathering five thousand elite soldiers from the Golden Army, they brought Munch and shouted: "Warriors come with me..." No nonsense, bring Munch and immediately lead his troops to rush backwards, blocking the main force of the Song army. "Kill--!" Bring Munch to ride a horse and wave a knife, leading five thousand golden soldiers to kill into the surging Xinwang cavalry formation.

And brought Munch with the main force, and the remaining force of about 20,000 men broke through the siege to the west, trying to break through the siege and escape.

The King Xin Army and the Li Yanxian Army encircled the Jin Army, but the problem was that they only had more than 38,000 soldiers. There is a cloud in the art of war, ten times to encircle it. This means that the strength of the army is ten times that of the opponent to perfectly encircle the enemy. It is impossible to encircle the enemy by relying on a little more force than the enemy.

Therefore, after the besieged Song Army beheaded more than two thousand soldiers, the main force led by Wanyan Lou finally broke through the siege. They fled westward in a hurry.
