(Fengqi Wutong 626, a cloud-piercing arrow every day, and you will definitely come to meet each other for the fifteenth day.)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

On the fifth day of March, the killing army was adjusting and deploying on that day, preparing to go east to Tongguan. When they attacked the Jin army, the Jin army launched a counterattack first.

On that day, Wanyan Zongfu took Balisu as the main general, and Wanyan Qiying as the vanguard, leading a 15,000 Jin army to attack from Xin'an, west of Luoyang, and rushed to a hundred miles to attack Shanzhou.

Li Yanxian, the appeaser in Shanzhou, had less than 5,000 troops, and the Song army was not good at field battles, so he did not dare to go out of the city to fight rashly. On the one hand, he urgently sent a messenger to the forces in Tianshu City, the nearest Jiezhou to ask for help, while on the other hand, he was firm and cleared the fields, with strict barriers, and prepared to go with Jin.

The army fights a protracted war.

Guozhou, seven or eighty miles south of Shanzhou, is the auxiliary army of the Shanzhou army, so naturally he cannot sit idly by and watch the commander besieged. Shao Xing, the governor of Guozhou, was under less than 3,000 people, most of them were new recruits, and the armor was used.

I received a batch of assistance from Tianshu City, but it was quite complete.

The day after the emergency in Shanzhou, Shao Xing rushed to help. He never thought that he would be ambushed by the Jin army in just seven or eighty miles - when the front army of the Guozhou army had just crossed Zhushui

When the rear army was still waiting to cross the west bank, it was suddenly attacked by five hundred elite cavalry of the Jin army.

The attacker was Wanyan Yanying, the vanguard of the Jin army.

The army of Balisu besieged the city, and Wanyan Qiying ambushed and attacked the reinforcements. Although it was not a clever strategy, it was very practical.

The prerequisite for besieging the city and attacking the aid is to rescue it if you attack the enemy - and Shanzhou is the place where you must save it when you attack Shaoxing.

Wanyan Yanying was deeply involved in his father's mansion, and was very good at using cavalry to sharpen infantry. He eventually destroyed it.

Yinshu is a master who is well versed in using cavalry to break stance. During the Jingkang period, the Jinxi Route Army besieged Taiyuan, and the Northern Song Dynasty sent hundreds of thousands of Song troops to rescue the siege.

As a result, he was able to kill thousands of cavalry by silver techniques, and most of them were torn to death. Hundreds of thousands of Song troops could not even see the shadow of the gate tower of Taiyuan City, so he was defeated one after another.

The cavalry technique of silver craft is used in this battle with great utmost significance and impressiveness.

In the Taiyuan Battle initiated by the Tianzhu Army, Silver Stories had no time to use the ultimate move he was good at. They were blown away by an armor-piercing warhead from later generations.

Wanyan Yan Ying fought with her father for eight years and learned her father's unique skills. What's slightly different from his father is that because his military position is far lower than his father, Wanyan Yan Ying never had the opportunity to command thousands of cavalry. What he is best at is commanding.

Hundreds of cavalry break through thousands of troops.

Wanyan Qiying had a team of 500 cavalry under his command. When he attacked Tanzhou, he had a flank assault and defeated the Thousand-man team of the Song army. When he attacked Dongping Prefecture, he even won the first merit with his elite cavalry to defeat the Song army. At that time, the Pai who watched the battle was

Li Su gave Wanyan's cavalry technique of being a high-profile, believing that he could inherit his father's legacy.

The thousand front troops who had just crossed Zhushui on Shaoxing were facing such a brilliant general and strong cavalry. These soldiers were originally new soldiers, and were even on the bank of the river with no retreat. They were attacked by the Jin army's iron cavalry that suddenly appeared in half.

This situation is so miserable that you can imagine it even with your eyes closed.

The thunder killing lasted for only a short moment, and the east bank of the candle water was covered with red blood, and the grass and trees were splashed with blood. The river was stained with corpses on the river bank and corpses floating on the river. One thousand Song soldiers were killed by five hundred golden cavalry.

Shao Xing had not crossed the river on the west bank, but fortunately escaped and led the remaining troops back to Guozhou, and was unable to reinforce.

In Jiezhou, because it is the rear, there is only one battalion of the Five Horse Division of the Tianzhu Army. As a Class B battalion, its equipment and combat effectiveness are not much stronger than that of the Shanzhou Army. Even if it is only a few hundred people, all of them will be taken to Shaanxi.

It would be useless to go. Therefore, the Jiezhou garrison did not agree to send troops to reinforce, but only sent out postmen and Shaanxi army messengers, and quickly reported to Chang'an headquarters for assistance.

On the seventh day of the third month, Wulindatai wanted to lead 5,000 troops and horses to carry the baggage to Luoyang. When the army passed Xin'an to Shengchi, the baggage of the back army was suddenly attacked, the food and grass were burned thirty carts, and hundreds of cattle and sheep were stolen.

Head, dozens of soldiers were killed or injured.

Wulindatai was furious and personally led 300 cavalry to chase after him, catching up with the attacker by the Yellow River - the remnants of the Zhai brothers in Wangwu Mountain.

Zhai Xing and Zhai Jin brothers have repeatedly fought with the Jin army for Luoyang, and even gained the upper hand several times, defeating the Jin soldiers and entering Xijing. However, since the King of Gai Tian Wanyan Saili led the army to capture Luoyang and expel the Zhai brothers,

The two brothers led more than a thousand remaining soldiers to avoid Wangwu Mountain in the northwest of Luoyang to fight guerrillas. Even if the Jin army had ten times the strength of the troops, they could not go to the deep mountains and forests to suppress bandits.

After contacting the Shanzhou Army, the Zhai brothers received support from Tianshu City to establish Wangwu Mountain Village. With the expectations of the Zhai brothers in the local area, a group of refugee soldiers were quickly summoned, and their vitality gradually became

Again, he harassed Luoyang Jin army a lot. This raid on the Jin army's baggage was done by Zhai Xing leading 500 troops.

Zhai Xing's military soldiers were mostly rural soldiers who lack training. With the convenience of familiarity with geography, they could use mountains and forests to fight guerrillas. When they arrived on the plains and faced the Jin army's fierce cavalry, they would be purely seeking death.

As soon as the two sides fought, the Golden Cavalry rushed, and the Song soldiers were defeated. In less than half an hour, half of the Song soldiers were stomped and half fell into the river. Even Zhai Xing was hit by three arrows and rushed out under the protection of the guards.

The encirclement was crossed by the Yellow River, and fled back to Wangwu Mountain Village.

A few days later, Zhai Xing died suddenly due to his serious injury. His brother Zhai Jin took over the anti-Jin banner and continued to fight on Wangwu Mountain.

In just two days, two Song troops were severely damaged by two large rivers, one east and one west, and two large rivers. Shanzhou was trapped in a siege of isolation and helplessness.

Shanzhou is in a hurry and Chang'an sends troops.

The three reorganized divisions of the Tianzhu Army in the Baqiao Army camp were added to the hunting barracks, the Zhouqiao camp, and nearly 40,000 troops. Such a large number of soldiers, vehicles, supplies, food and ammunition cannot be set off immediately after departure.

On the fourth day of March, a six-man military group discussed the establishment of the Tianzhu Army Central Plains Army, with Yang Zaixing, He Yuanqing and Zhang Li as the deputy commander-in-chief and Ling Yuan as the chief of staff. The army has three reorganized divisions, including nine mixed brigades and two

The special camp has a total of more than 37,000 people.

Such a large army cooperates with each other, marchs together, attacks in different directions, and fights in concert, which is unprecedented in the history of the Tianzhu Army. There are many tasks to be done and many problems to be solved. Originally, the headquarters of the army was expected to be as early as early as March.

About ten, they completed the general mobilization of the entire army and sent troops in batches. Unexpectedly, the Jin army moved so quickly that they did not run away, but instead fought.

For the Tianzhu Army, it is a good thing for the Jin army to come to the door. Although they are not fully prepared, they might as well send a vanguard army to rescue the Shanzhou army and stick to the Jin army. After the army gathers together, they encircle and annihilate it.

This vanguard army, in terms of geographical location and rescue time, is the most suitable target of the Sixth Mixed Brigade of the Second Reorganized Division stationed in Shangzhou. The brigade commander was the Second Reorganized Division and even the entire Tianzhu Army.

Famous Saburo: Dong Xian.

The sixth Brigade's troops were divided into three parts, stationed in Shangluo, Lu family, and Shangluo respectively. They defended against the Jin army of Yiyang and Dengzhou in Henan Prefecture. When the news of the Jin army encircled Shanzhou and defeating the reinforcements of Guozhou reached Shangzhou.

He had just returned to Shangluo from the Lu inspection. At the same time, the messenger of Shao Xing, the governor of Guozhou, also arrived.

As the only army in the Tianzhu Army that directly confronted the Jin army in Henan, Dong Xian knew the situation of the Jin army more timely than the Chang'an headquarters. The Jin army gathered all the troops that had spread to Jiangnan and Jiangbei, which was obviously

Just like the attitude of being forced to escape, why did it attack Shanzhou in a blink of an eye? Could it be that the Jin army saw something, and took the advance as a retreat, and attack instead of defense? If so, should we take the initiative to attack?

,Where are you intercepting the Jin army?

Dong Xian kept weighing the pros and cons, but finally decided to attack.

After learning about the decision of the brigade commander, the chief of staff of the brigade reminded: "The mission of our brigade is to defend against the enemies of Yiyang and Dengzhou, and we must not attack without authorization. Recently, the Chang'an headquarters has undergone major adjustments. Our brigade is at the forefront and must have

Great use. If you act rashly without asking for instructions at this time, it will probably affect the overall deployment of the headquarters... Please think twice."

Dong thought for a while and said, "The Jin army still has some strength in Yiyang, but in Dengzhou, since its chief commander Olu disappeared, the remaining Jin soldiers were no longer able to stand the battle. If it weren't for the concern that after the occupation, our army would be too much.

Prominent, easy to be attacked by the enemy from three sides, and it has long been taken down by Dengzhou. Therefore, Shangluo's troops can be withdrawn without affecting defense. As for the recent major adjustment of Chang'an headquarters, it must be a response to the Central Plains Jin army, precisely because

Our sixth brigade is on the front line. If it is of great use, it will definitely attack the enemy, and there is nothing else to do with this."

The Chief of Staff of the Brigade was also a general from the Teaching Battalion and Taiyuan Military Academy. He was good at analyzing the situation and pondering it for a while, and hesitated and said: "It's better to ask for instructions first..."

"It's too late. The situation in Shaanxi is critical and urgent." Dong Xian said in an unquestionable tone, "Do it first."

A guard suddenly came from an emergency report outside the house: "The Chang'an military envoy has arrived urgently..."

Dong Xian opened the urgent question and saw it suddenly laughed: "We have thought of going together with Chang'an headquarters..."

On the eighth day of March, Dong Xian led the sixth Mixed Brigade, about four main battalions, with a total of 2,000 troops and chariots, crossed the Luoshui River and marched northward, preparing to cross Guozhou and rush to Shanzhou to relieve the siege.

On the tenth day of March, the Sixth Brigade arrived in Guozhou. Shaoxing went out to greet him. He was very happy when he saw the army of 2,000 troops, fully equipped with troops and continuous chariots and horses. He led the soldiers of the Sixth Brigade to the military camp that had been prepared early to rest.

The next day, he agreed to personally lead 500 soldiers to accompany him and go to Shanzhou.

On March 11, 2,000 days of the army was killed, and 500 Guozhou troops set out from the northern gate of Guozhou, crossed Zhushui again, and reinforced Shanzhou.

This time, Shao Xing did not dare to be careless anymore, and sent five groups of hard-hitting striking to cross the river first, to investigate the radius of more than 20 miles ahead, and to confirm the invincible situation, he dared to cross the river.

The Jin army seemed to have identified the number of major generals in the Guozhou area and were unable to come to support, so they did not arrange heavy troops to intercept them in this direction.

Guozhou and Shanzhou are less than a hundred miles apart. The cavalry can reach one day for marching in a hurry, and the infantry can arrive at most two days. Since this trip is for reinforcements, soldiers must maintain sufficient physical strength and fight with the enemy at any time, so the marching should be stable rather than urgent.

At dusk, reinforcements arrived in Lingbao County, about 30 miles from Shanzhou, preparing to rest here for one night and officially fight with the Jin army tomorrow.

Lingbao County was destroyed and could not resist the Jin army's Bocheng. The original county government had moved to Hangu Pass five miles away from the county town. When he learned that reinforcements were coming, Lingbao County rushed to come hurriedly. In his joy, please

The army entered the pass and rested.

With the changes of the times, the strategic status of Hangu Pass at that time was far inferior to that of the Qin and Han dynasties. In addition, the repeated wars and chaos were unable to repair them, all three passes were quite broken. However, the more broken passes were, the original old ones

The foundation, coupled with the risk-based conditions, is still much better than the county town in terms of defense.

The closer you get to the enemy, the more cautious you should be. Whether it is Dong Xian or Shao Xing, you will not put your army in a dangerous place at will, and you will happily accept Zhilingbao County's kindness.

Lingbao belongs to Shanzhou, and this magistrate was of course enthroned by Jianyan Dynasty. However, Shanzhou was suspended within the sphere of influence of the Jin army. No one could come from Jianyan Dynasty, and no one dared to come to be this.

The magistrate, so the magistrate was actually appointed by Li Yanxian. He was originally a military officer of the Shanzhou Army. This person had an old friendship with Shao Xing, and when he met, he was naturally happy and happy.

After the meal, Dong Xian gathered generals above the army camp to conduct an military discussion, and Shao Xing also attended.

There is only one military issue: which reinforcement method will be adopted tomorrow.

Currently there are two ways of reinforcement: one, cross the Yellow River, reach the north bank, go around to Pinglu, cross the Yellow River again, return to the south bank, and enter the Shanzhou City, which is bordered by the Yellow River. Then, jointly defend the city with the Shanzhou Army to wait for the reinforcements to be held in a large number of reinforcements.

Arrival, this is a relatively safe method. Second, give up crossing the river and directly attack the Jin army's camp located under the city of Shanzhou. The Shanzhou army can take advantage of the situation to go out of the city to attack together. This is more risky, but the results of the battle are also great, and the operation is good.

Maybe you can use one blow to defeat the enemy, and it is not impossible to defeat it.

The first commander of an army will greatly affect the combat style of this army. The Sixth Brigade has obviously been marked with the personal style of the main general, and the generals believed that the second method should be adopted.

Dong Xian and his chief of staff also tend to the second method, not only because of their personal combat style, but also because they are mixed brigades rather than ordinary brigades, and guarding the city does not reflect the advantage of combat vehicles. At the same time, they are also worried about the military strength of Shaanxi Province.

Inadequate, for fear of any mistake, he suggested that the troops be divided into two groups: Shao Xing led 500 troops from the north bank of the Yellow River to aid Shaanxi, and the Sixth Brigade attacked the Jin army from the south bank; and the Shanzhou army did not hesitate after seeing the chaos of the enemy camp.

, immediately go out of the city and attack.
