Chapter 187 Zhao Kai is nothing more than that

The Jin army's camp was located in the southwest of Dengfeng County, with towering Songshan in the north and vast Jishan in the south. It stretched for dozens of miles, with high camps and strong camps. It was obvious that the Jin army had made long-lasting plans this time.

The soldiers have no constant power, and the water has no constant shape. Although the Jin soldiers are known for their rapidity and strength, they are not unaware of flexibility and only know how to use strong ones blindly.

In the desert grasslands in the north, when you are not good at defense, you must fight hard and rush out with a momentum. Only in this way can you shock the many servant tribes below the Khitans, make them either turn against or be neutral, and thus make the arrogant empire of the Great Liao fall apart in a flash.

Then he invaded the Central Plains. Before meeting Zhao Kai, he was almost invincible. Of course, he also had to use force to show off his power in order to win quickly.

However, when they had enough oil and water and met an opponent who could really fight, they changed their previous bravery and used steady tactics to deal with it with caution. After all, the population of the Jurchen nation is limited. Even if they count the savage Jurchens in the deep mountains and forests, the mature Jurchens with high degree of sinicization, and the Bohai people who can only be regarded as alienated relatives, it is only 200,000 yuan. Although they have strong mobilization ability, including Ali Xibians, they can pull out more than 300,000 troops at any time. However, once these 300,000 troops are lost, the good days of the Jurchen nation will be over... How happy will it be to become the dominant nation? How can it be that the ship will capsize if you accidentally?

Therefore, when Wanyan Zonghan learned that the Six Banners and Flags of the Song Dynasty's official family appeared in Shaolin Temple in Songshan north of Dengfeng, he immediately made the following adjustments.

First, Zong Han ordered Yinshu to divide his troops to defend the two cities of Dengfeng and Mi County, waiting for the main force to arrive, and he would not be allowed to fight the Song army decisively before the main force arrived.

Second, Zong Han ordered the troops stationed in Sanshan Floating Bridge, Liyang, Huazhou, and Wanyan Loushi in Wannian New Dike to abandon Liyang and Huazhou, and then left 5,000 troops to Tuhe to guard Sanshan Floating Bridge and Wannian New Dike, and led the rest of the troops south to Chenliu to take over Chenliu-Songzhou front line defense.

Third, after Zong Han arrived in Chenliu in Loushi, he sent someone to send a secret order to Tuhexu, who was behind the Sanshan Floating Bridge and Wannian New Dike - to start digging Wannian New Dike, but do not dig it completely. Once he learned that the Southern Army had retreated from Chenliu and had no other orders delivered, he would dig the Wannian New Dike, flood Kaifeng Prefecture, and create a yellow area!

Fourth, after completing the above three deployment adjustments, Wanyan Zonghan personally led 40,000 troops (including Alixi) and 30,000 servants who were forced to recruit from various places in Jingdong, and pulled 100,000 stones of rice and grain, 50,000 stone bean cakes and 100,000 bundles of hay to Dengfeng and Mi County.

After arriving in Dengfeng and Mi County, Wanyan Zonghan did not seek war, but set up a company camp, high acreage and deep ditch, and put on an attitude of preparing to confront Zhao Kai for a long time.

This kind of "sitting war" with deep grooves and high bases looks a bit cowardly, but it is extremely common in the history of war - a war of attrition has always been an effective mode of engagement!

Because both sides in the war are unlikely to have the same logistics capabilities and supply lines of equal length, the parties with stronger logistics capabilities and shorter supply lines often choose to consume for a long time.

Before, the Jin soldiers surrounded Taiyuan and Kaifeng Prefecture, but in fact they were using their logistical advantages (it was also an advantage) to deal with the Song people's strong city.

In Hebei, Jingdong, there are many Song people castles that refuse to surrender, surrounded by Jin soldiers!

At the forefront of Dengfeng-Mi County, the advantage of logistics transfer is obviously on the side of the Jin people!

Because the Jin people could use the convenience of the Bian River to transport the rice sent by Zhao Huan and the bean cakes recruited from various places in Jingdong, and hay to Chenliu, and then transported them from Chenliu to Mi County for only more than 200 miles.

In contrast, Zhao Kai's transportation line is much longer.

The grain transport team from Nanyang has to walk more than 500 miles to reach Gongyi, north of Songshan. Moreover, the nearly 100-mile route from Liang County to Yique City is very easy to be attacked by the Jin soldiers stationed in Dengfeng. Dengfeng is only more than 70 miles away from Liang County, which is not far away. However, it is not easy to pass through Jishan. However, from Dengfeng to the west, there is a flat corridor of more than a dozen wide between Jishan and Songshan.

Through this corridor, the Jin soldiers who set out from Dengfeng could rush to the edge of the Yichuan water in less than 100 miles and intercept the Song army's grain transport team - Yique was connected to the bridgehead on the east bank through a pontoon bridge. However, the Jin soldiers did not need to defeat Yique, they only needed to intercept the Song army's grain transport team.

And this is not a difficult task. Because Jishan can stop the Jin people's cavalry from passing, but cannot stop the small team of reconnaissance cavalry that has been broken into pieces.

Therefore, the large-scale operation of the Song army's grain transport team could not hide the Jin soldiers' reconnaissance cavalry, and the grain transport team's progress was slow... It would take at least two or three days for 100 miles. The Jin people's cavalry attacked from Dengfeng and could reach the east coast of Yichuan in one day!

As long as the Song people could not transport food from Ruzhou to Yique, the Song army in Songshan, Guangwu Mountain, Kaifeng Prefecture and other places would be out of food in less than half a year.

Then, let alone Kaifeng Prefecture, even Zhao Kai in Luoyang will not be able to protect it!

If Luoyang loses, Zhao Kai will be in Hebei and Hedong's territory will be in a dilemma of being attacked from both sides and will have to give up sooner or later.

After Hebei and Hedong were all acquired, the Dajin Dynasty was at an overwhelming advantage in this Three Kingdoms Bureau of "Two Songs and One Jin"!

Zhao Kai...but that's it!

When dusk shrouded the earth, in the southwest of Dengfeng Town, in Quhe Town, which was next to Yingshui, there were still bright lights in a luxurious house. Around the house, there were a large number of Jurchens standing guard and standing guard.

This is where Wanyan Zonghan’s central army is located.

Inside the mansion, Wanyan Zonghan looked at a map spread out on the table, staring at it for a long time, and finally smiled proudly again.

Win sure!

Shiayama's revenge is avenged!

Outside the yard, there was a sound of horse hooves, and then a low call was heard. Then more than a dozen people turned over and got off the horse, and walked straight towards the house where Zonghan lived.

Zong Han's personal soldiers who were guarding outside shouted, "Who is making noise!"

What came was Wanyan Xiebao's voice: "Dad, are you not asleep yet? Emergency military information... The Song army in Ruzhou moved. After passing Rushui at noon today, the large group of people headed towards Yichuan!"

Wanyan Zonghan moved his body and turned around and shouted at the hidden door: "Xibao, who else is here? Can you send someone to invite Xiyin and Yin Shuke?"

The voices of Xi Yin and Yin Shuke immediately came from outside the house.

"Come on, I'm here with Yin Shu!"

"Deputy Marshal, I have to let my Silver Skill attack this time!"

Wanyan Zonghan laughed and said, "It's easy to say, come in quickly!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Xibao leading Wanyan Xiyin, Wanyan Yinshuke and the two of them pushed the door and came in.

Xibao, Xiyin, Yin Shuke first gave Zong Han a bow, and then Wanyan Xibao began to report the military situation sent back by the scout cavalry in front.

"Dad, this time the Song people's grain transport team was very large, with tens of thousands of people, and the escorts were also over 10,000!"

"That's natural!" Wanyan Zonghan smiled, "If there are fewer people, they dare not go out!"

"So what about tens of thousands?" Wanyan Yinshu said, "If you take the civil servants off, there are not necessarily 20,000 people who can really fight. Deputy Marshal, you give your subordinates 30,000 people, and you keep the food trucks of the Song people for you!"

"Oh, I just burned the Song people's grain truck?" Wanyan Zonghan asked with a smile, "Yin Shuke, don't you want to do a big deal?"

"Big deal?" Yin Shuke was stunned, "Deputy Marshal, are you going to... take over the Zhouchengliang County of Ruzhou?"

If Liang County was seized by the Jin people, Nanyang's grain would not be able to be transported to Luoyang!

It can be said that it is a sword that will set the victory down.

However, Liang County was not easy to take over. After Zhao Ding took office as the governor, his work of strengthening the city defense was not lost for a moment. Even if the army escorted grain, there would not be too few defenders in Liang County.

Obstructed by Jishan, it is difficult for the Jin army to go south to Liang County. If they want to go south to Liang County, it is best to pass through Songshan and the corridor between Jishan, go to Yichuan and then turn back to the southeast, enter another corridor between Jishan and Funiu Mountain. If you walk a hundred miles, you can reach Liang County.

If the main force wants to travel through mountainous areas with complex terrain and may be ambushed by the Song army, then he will lose inexplicably.

However, the risk of stealing across Jishan with two or three thousand soldiers was small, but it was impossible to defeat Liangxian, which had a strong city defense. It would be useless to go there.

"No, don't attack Liang County." Wanyan Zonghan waved to the three of them, called them to the front, and then poked a small dot on the map with his fingers. "This is Linru Town, located between Liang County and Yichuan. It's a small town with no city defense. Silver skills, you will lead 3,000 people to steal Jishan and raid and seize Linru Town... Can you do it?"

"Then...whether the Song people's grain transport brigade?" Yin Shu still wanted to fight the Song army's brigade - it was full of oil and water! The grain transport brigade could not only transport grain, it would definitely be matched with copper coins and silk!

"I will lead my own people to fight!" Wanyan Zonghan smiled, "Yin Shu, as long as you can take Linru Town, you will be the first to win the battle, and yours will take the spoils first. Is this okay?"

"I thanked the Deputy Marshal," Yin Shuke patted his chest, "Please rest assured that the Deputy Marshal will definitely take down Linru Town and cut off the liaison between Liang County and Yichuan."

Wanyan Zonghan nodded, "That's good... If the Song people's grain transport soldiers knew that the way out of their retreat would be very panic. Maybe they would abandon the grain truck and run to Yichuan. Even if they didn't run away, they would still be a piece of meat in our mouths!"

"Dad," said Wanyan Xiebao next to him suddenly, "What if the Song people don't run away and don't panic, but turn over and rush over and rush to Ru Ru? Linru Town has no city defense, and Silver Skills can't bring a lot of food. If they are besieged, wouldn't it be a good fortune?"

Zong Han was so disappointed when he heard his son's words. This kid would not fight at all! He thought the army in his hands was transparent?
