Chapter 505 Flying Sky (1)
Zhang Feng shook the snow on his body and said at the door: "The enemy is coming quickly, and the roars have arrived outside the outskirts of Qingzhou City."
"Isn't that just right?" Wang Ju asked strangely.
This is expected. Why did Zhang Qing leave Qingzhou City again at this time? You should know that leaving Qingzhou City now will be dangerous. Maybe you will encounter an enemy's roar halfway.
"Zi'an, Renduolingding forcibly arrested seventeen people from the rear. These people were all managers from the Xixia merchants in Tongsaichuan. In the past, because of private salt, there were contacts with many private salt merchants in Qingzhou. Renduolingding asked them to sneak into the outskirts of Qingzhou last night. Before the enemy arrived in the morning, I opened the city gate as usual and asked the people to go out to pick wood. As a result, these seventeen managers took the opportunity to sneak into the city."
This cannot be stopped.
Although the Xia army had not arrived some time ago, the Qingzhou government repeatedly ordered that all the forts and suburbs in front would withdraw from Qingzhou, and all the people in the suburbs in the rear would retreat to the rear - You-You-Xiao-Shunting-New-Fast-Fast-but it could not be enforced.
Especially in Qingzhou City, there are many large-scale owners, that is, large landlords. There are many tenants in their family, and some people have many relatives and friends in the suburbs. Although the court repeatedly guaranteed the safety of retreating to the rear and arranged food, clothing, housing and transportation, how many people believed it? Therefore, these people flocked into Qingzhou City together.
So now the city of Qingzhou is mixed with dragons and snakes. Not to mention the 17 strange faces, even if there are 170 strange faces, the government cannot visit.
However, some merchants still know the importance of the matter. In the past, we were trading, so we couldn't wait to see you occupy Qingzhou and make Qingzhou become the territory of Xixia. Under the governance of Xixia, will everyone have a good life?
So these managers came to visit in advance and asked them to arrest them later and handed them over to the government.
However, this matter is a bit complicated. Those stupid managers will definitely seek death first, but there are very few who are very smart, and they may not inquire immediately.
Actually, there is no need to inquire.
When Zhang Yu handed over, Li Fugui had not left yet. Li Fugui cooperated with Wang Ju. He went to Dashun City to inspect and handed over the government affairs to Zhang Yu. Zhang Yu successfully took over the military and political affairs of Gyeongju. Then Li Fugui left Dashun City and immediately left Gyeongju.
At first, everyone did not pay attention. Anyway, Zhang Yue handled the government affairs well, so he didn't care where Li Fugui went. However, hundreds of thousands of Xixia troops invaded, and Li Fugui still did not appear, and gradually there was some discussion in the public.
Of course, several officials in Qingzhou knew about it, but in order to keep it secret, the clerks did not know it, and they could not be notified. These clerks all came from wealthy families in the local area. Some clerks themselves were not clear about the Xixia area, so they could not be said.
Now that the situation in Qingzhou is invisible, the magistrate has disappeared, how can the people not be nervous?
So if you are smarter, you don’t have to visit you. You can find out immediately that Lee Fugui is probably not in Gyeongju. Or as rumors say that Lee Fugui was killed, but Xixia knows it, how could Lee Fugui be killed?
Zhang Feng felt vaguely uneasy.
Qingzhou is too chaotic, otherwise it would be okay to find these seventeen people. If it can’t be found, or the city will be closed tomorrow, that won’t work. Maybe a spy will bring the news back before the city gate is closed. After Zhang Yu learned about it, he felt a little tricky, so he rode his horse to Ningzhou again.
Wang Ju scratched his head and said, "It's really not possible, brother, let's start."
"No more waiting?"
From the beginning, it has been for a "letting go". Now hundreds of thousands of Xixia troops have been put in together and placed in the mouth of this huge python. Then you can swallow it.
However, we still have to wait for reinforcements from Chang'an. The vanguard will not arrive tomorrow, and the army behind will probably not arrive in Ningzhou the day after tomorrow.
Second-class Miao Shu also had to ask about the news about Dong Wen so that he could make a detailed next plan. So Wang Ju ordered Yao Lin to take the risk and delay it for one more day.
Wang Ju said in a deep voice: "It is better to hit the day than choose a day. Renduoling Ding was suspicious. If he sent three or five thousand soldiers to retreat, Gao Min would be in danger. Moreover, they are now in the three armies, with enough troops, and they are divided into three or five thousand soldiers, just like they are not divided."
Zhang Feng was funny and speechless. Just such a big country could actually send 300,000 troops.
"Also, this weather is pretty good."
The weather was very bad, with little snowflakes floating. But for Wang Ju, this was simply a weather that could not be better.
Zhang Yu focused on the key points. As for war, the right time, place and people are the right people, and the weather is also a major factor. For example, the clear weather a few days ago brought some trouble to the Song Dynasty. If it weren't for the good moonlight, Wei Qingzong would not have sacrificed heroically.
"Also, look at the snow," Wang Ju reached out and picked up a few snowflakes from the air. The crystal clear snowflakes met the heat from his palm, and quickly turned into water droplets, shaking in his palm.
This is also the weather. Although Gyeongju is still very cold, it is still late in the first lunar month, and this cold weather is not long. The actual temperature is slowly rising, otherwise it will not be water and snow, but dry snow. But many combat plans are based on this cold weather, so they cannot be delayed.
Of course, as soon as this is in advance, the whole thing has to be in advance.
Wang Ju first asked the messenger to go to Xiyao City immediately and asked Zhou Yongqing to send troops from Xiyao City immediately.
Then he wrote a letter asking Han Jiang and Guo Kui to send troops. In the letter, he made another request. If the battle came, Yang Wenguang, the governor of Fuzhou, led several battalions of officers and soldiers to help the war.
Of course, Yang Wenguang is not as magical as the storyteller of the Yang family, and is not even as good as Miao Shu and Liu Changzuo. However, he is also a general of the second Yao Yanda level. He has served as the governor of Fuzhou for nearly a year and should be familiar with the officers and soldiers of Fuzhou.
The general is a famous general and is familiar with his soldiers. Wang Ju will not let him go. Moreover, the transportation is convenient. When Wang Ju knew Huachi County, he deliberately built the Zhifeng Road. From Fuzhou to Zhiluo County, and then to Fengchuan Fort are all flat roads. Even infantry can quickly reach Fengchuan Fort and enter the battlefield.
After the letter was written, someone was sent to Yanzhou with a fast horse.
Zhang Qi said: "How tight is the time?"
In this way, Yanzhou has only a few hours to assemble the army.
"They originally planned to send troops tomorrow, but they were only one day in advance. If the second public had the intention, the army would have been assembled. If they were not intent, they would not have assembled much army to support them even tomorrow." Wang Ju said lightly.
However, he believed that neither Han Jiang nor Guo Kui were people like Sima Guang. Besides, Han Jiang did not hate him, and Guo Kui had no fuss with him. But this was a real military achievement and the risk seemed to be very low, so he would not make things difficult for him.
The facts were as Wang Ju expected, and the two of them did not make any difficulties. In this battle, they also called out a famous general that Wang Ju unexpectedly came out, and this famous general was Wang Ju's fellow villager. He was just a foreigner.
But when Han Jiang saw Wang Ju ask for Yang Wenguang for support in the letter, he laughed: "This little Wang Ju has a good appetite. The soldiers from Yanzhou will soon serve him."
However, whether Yang Guangwen also needs to support it depends on the outcome of tomorrow's battle.
Of course, we must continue to order, four orders to Liu Changzuo, Liu Feng, Zhao Yuqing and Gao Min respectively.
The messengers rode away one by one.
Wang Ju then said, "Brother, in this way, if the enemy sends troops to siege Qingzhou and let them siege. If the enemy has not sent troops to siege Qingzhou tomorrow morning, you will also send cavalry to drive out the enemy's rangers. Then continue to let the people out of the city to pick wood, just slightly limiting the time and range of woodcutting. Then I will send troops immediately tomorrow night."
"Zi'an wants to..."
"what you think?"
Zhang Qi smiled slightly, and then rode back.
This is not for safety reasons, but to go back and make intentional arrangements to allow several Xixia spies to escape from Qingzhou City. Otherwise, if all seventeen spies were fools and fell into the French Open one by one, Wang Ju's arrangement would be wasted his expression.
Zhang Shi thought about it a lot. When he returned to Gyeongju City, Rendao Lingding had already received some news.
"Li Fugui is not in Gyeongju?"
"General, he has been missing for many days, and at this time, rumors spread in the city of Gyeongju."
"There are not many troops?"
"Yes, there are only officers and soldiers of the Fourth and Fifth Battalions, and there are a small number of strong men. There are many people in the city who fled from outside the city, and the public security is in chaos."
"Oh." Ren Duolingding slapped his forehead. If he had sent someone to Qingzhou earlier to inquire about the news and then divided his troops to Qingzhou, instead of attacking Xueni Fort and planning to Huanzhou, wouldn't he have made great achievements?
However, he smiled bitterly. If Fort Meili was not taken down and the three armies could not join forces, how could he think of Qingzhou City at that time? But what should I do now? If I divide the troops again, I have to ask Liang Yi to ask for reinforcements, otherwise the troops in my hands will be tight. Don’t forget that there are a relatively large number of Song troops in Huai'an Town or Wujiao Town.
He thought for a while, and finally wrote a letter to Liang Yimang, asking him to send reinforcements. On this day, Liang Yimang continued to make Li Sangou fuck her and die. However, the important thing was important. He thought about it and agreed to Ren Duolingding's request.
Although the Song people fought very vulgarly in the battle of Rouyuan Village, they also completely exposed the fact that Xixia was not good at siege.
Anyway, I have enough troops in my hands, so I might as well cast a wide net and I can't tell you where I can catch a big fish.
However, he also felt strange: "Li Fugui is not in Qingzhou, so did the Song Dynasty silently regard a magistrate commander?"
"Li Fugui was transferred away. When the new magistrate heard that our army was coming, he did not dare to hand over the matters, so the Gyeongju had to be directed by the Tongju. But the Tongju should not be underestimated. I heard that he held the position of Gyeongju signing in the last battle of Dashuncheng, which was highly valued by Cai Ting." Song Ji said from the side.
"That is, he understands military better than Lee Fukui."
"It should be considered, but he is a magistrate in the end. If there has not been a serious defeat in Qingzhou, there may be a little bit of prestige and remote control to command the generals. If there is a major defeat, Qingzhou will immediately become a mess of loose sand... In this way, the general, why not let me lead a team of troops to Qingzhou immediately."
"You're going to Gyeongju?"
"Please believe me, General." The reason why Song Ji made this request was that he had attacked the city in the past few days, buried Liang Yi and lost his temper at any time, or left Liang Yi. Second, he could "glory the ancestors" and return to the land of the Song Dynasty. Third, he could find out whether he could get a bargain. If he wins, he would be his credit, and if he fails, he would be his mistake in information.
Song Ji advised him for a long time, and Liang Yima finally agreed that there was a straight road from Rouyuan Village to Qingzhou City. Now Renduolingding's army has arrived at Yele Town. Song Ji's Xia army is not alone, so Song Ji immediately counted the troops and left Rouyuan Village. However, if you want to reach Qingzhou City, you have to bring some supplies and food. The speed is not fast and you can't arrive at noon tomorrow at least.
After Song Ji left, the sky gradually became darker.
Liang Yi asked the three armies to withdraw and continued to pile up the earthen mountain at night. He was considered to have had sex with Rouyuan Village.
However, Duola's offensive slowed down. The three consecutive days of attack caused heavy casualties under his command, and he became more and more uneasy as he attacked, so he deliberately slowed down the offensive.
But behind Liyuan Fort, an army quietly began to operate.
Duolae was a little discouraged and could not even capture Liyuan Fort, let alone Huachi Town. Moreover, Liu Changzuo's army recovered and sent large groups of scouts to clear out the cavalry of Xixia in the wild. Therefore, Duolae intentionally withdrew the scouts in front from today.
This is the effect.
Liu Feng quietly led his subordinates to leave Huachi Town and quietly touched Pingrong Town. Snowflakes were floating in the sky, and almost all the wild villages were evacuated, so no one paid attention to this trip. At the same time, a larger army was also marching quietly in the north. The leader was Gao Yongneng, the general requested by Wang Ju, and a tiger general who was neglected by Wang Ju. The guards were inspectors of the security army, and they were also the security guards, the foreign general Liu Shaoneng, and the old friend Gui Nianglang Ben, who was familiar to Wang Ju.
Liu Qi brought the three armies to Pingrong Town, and Zhao Yuqing also led the three armies out of Pingrong Town. The reason why Zhao Yuqing was able to escape after being defeated by the Xixia people was because he was extremely familiar with the terrain of Dashun City, Jintang City, Baibao City to Pingrong Town. So Wang Ju arranged him to Pingrong Town, not to value his military talent, nor to value his ability to fight. In fact, he was far inferior to his dead brother Zhao Ming. What Wang Ju values was this familiar terrain.
The two armies met and continued to march forward with a difficult marches along the mountain road.
On the other hand, the same reason for Han Jiang and Guo Kui to use Liu Shaoneng. Liu Shaoneng is much more powerful than Zhao Yuqing. However, Han and Guo don’t know where they use Liu Shaoneng. The reason for using Liu Shaoneng is also because they value his familiarity with the terrain. But in addition to Liu Shaoneng, there are two other people in this industry, one is Wang Ju liked, and the other is Wang Juji disliked. The one they liked was the army's army's army, Jing Sili, and the one they didn’t like was the slave Wang Wenliang of Wuzang Epang.
Moreover, in Han Jiang's mind, these two people are much more important than Liu Shao's ability. Therefore, using Liu Shao's ability is the same nature as Wang Ju and Zhao Yuqing, that is, the super guide.
After all, the roads taken by the Yanzhou army are as rugged as those taken by the Liu and Zhao army. Almost all are mountain paths, and on this night with snowflakes. However, the two armies have the same goal, that is, Naoebao... (To be continued...)r1292
