Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 1029 The Sorrow of Party Members
This group of barbarians burned, killed and looted around the city, doing all kinds of evil. When he reacted and sent troops to attack, he couldn't stop him. A mere thousand or so people were not enough to fit his teeth. The general did not dare to approach too closely, and was calmly retreated.

These savages are brutal, and they plunder wealth by killing chickens and taking eggs. Keyimen to Shengwei City are also important food producing areas, and the settled households are relatively dense. God and man are both angry.

There are dilapidated villages everywhere, the corpses of the living people are left to be bitten by wild dogs, and a large number of people have been plundered. Wang Cunli is very sad to see that he directly beheaded the general who led the attack but did not dare to stop him.

In fact, he also understood very well that he had tried his best to organize thousands of people, how could he send more than a thousand people to fight against thousands of fierce barbarians?In order to frighten officials and soldiers so that they dare not stay still, they can only kill people to establish their prestige.

Just when the wind and rain were falling, the Forbidden Army of the Great Song Dynasty launched an attack again. The Song Army Rangers were found in the south of Shengwei City. After a month of relatively peaceful battle, it was once again turbulent. .

However, what made Wang Cunli collapse was that the Song army hadn't gone north yet, but the Jin army had arrived. Gao Sheng led more than ten thousand cavalry menacingly, and directly took down Wulahai City. The defenders were harassed by the prairie barbarians and exhausted. At the extreme, under the banner of expelling the barbarians, the guards were deceived into leaving the city to reward the army, and the purpose of the surprise attack was achieved.

Gao Sheng also used unscrupulous means to take down Wulahai City, and with the support of the rear troops, he attacked with light troops and took Huhuadu with lightning speed.

The reason for the Jurchens to send troops is very ridiculous, to help Daxia drive out the grassland bandits.Without the connivance of the Jurchens, how could the ministries of the grassland break in?How could the Tatar horse army break into Keyimen and plunder Shengwei City.

Wu Cunli understood that the Jurchens had completely abandoned Daxia, and even went into battle directly with swords. Those fierce grassland cavalry were really the accomplices of the Jurchens.

He hardly had any hope, but he had to do everything he could to clear the fields near Shengwei City, gather as many fleeing people as possible, and all the young and strong who could enter the city entered the city, and those old, weak, women and children moved westward to prevent them from being slaughtered by the rebel army. , The defenders of some strongholds outside the city also withdrew into the city.

Those strongholds are too isolated. Facing the powerful Song army, it is almost impossible to organize an effective defense. Instead of losing in vain, it is better to withdraw into the city to concentrate forces, and to make the city more defensive.

He seized every minute and every moment, patrolled at night to urge to strengthen his combat readiness, and sent an emergency to Guantang to Xingqing, hoping to support him with [-] regular soldiers, and to last longer.

It's a pity that Ren Dejing marched westward from Yanzhou with the Song army, and the army was approaching Jinghuai, so it was impossible to transfer troops northward.Brother Cha also had no choice but to give him thousands of official certificates to store grain and recruit soldiers. It seems that he was given the power to guard the generals and below. In fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see the suffering. warrior?

The Song Army did indeed launch an offensive. When the Jin Army was vying for Hexi, Qu Duan realized that the time had come. The Jin Army changed its high-pressure state and began to compete with the Song Army. He adjusted his troops as quickly as possible. Participate in two ways.

More than [-] people from the Northwest Battalion of Dianqian Division marched westward from the west of Yanzhou and launched a powerful offensive against Jing and Huai; the sixth battalion, Wanjie, Konghe, and Yunjie, attached to the [-] Township Army, went north from Baichi City , launched an offensive against Shengwei City, Xu Huiyan naturally became the coach of the north.

The fifth battalion of Flying Cavalry and Dragon Cavalry was the strategic reserve team. Li Yanxian was not in a hurry, he understood his heavy responsibility.

In fact, [-]% of the horse troops of the Song Army were concentrated in the West Army, and most of the horse troops of the West Army were strengthened to the middle and west roads. Even the horse troops of the fifth battalion and two armies were transferred to stabilize places, resulting in The horse army that the fifth battalion can mobilize is only about [-] cavalry, and they are basically single-horse cavalry. Compared with Shaoxing's ninth battalion, the difference is thousands of miles away!

Even if the troops were severely weakened, the Fifth Battalion still assumed the task of strategic support and was given the mission of a decisive battle with the Jin Army.

Xu Huiyan led the sixth battalion to take on the task of attacking Shengwei City. Even though he was attached to the township army with more than [-] people, he was still extremely cautious.

The forward arrived at an area of ​​more than forty miles away from Shengwei City. He had to be cautious. After all, Shengwei City was a famous pass city in Xia Dynasty. There were soldiers and horses from the grassland tribes, and there were faint traces of the Jin Army. He had to be careful. think.

Not to mention anything else, the fragile transit route alone made him have to be extremely cautious, and he must not underestimate the enemy and rush forward, lest the food road be intercepted and the entire army wiped out.

Wang Cunli prepared helplessly. In this war without victory, he was already desperate and prepared to die for his country.

For Li Renxiao, it was unbearable. The [-]-strong army of living women quickly swept through the Yan Army Division of Heishui Town, and the speed was quite fast.

Brother Yinshu's son, Yingying, together with the military commander Sha Guzhi and Xi Buzhu, assembled more than ten thousand people, divided into three routes and went southward, and rushed for hundreds of miles, capturing Hehechuan in one fell swoop, posing a threat to the governance of Suzhou.

Once Suzhou is taken by the Jin Army, Guazhou and Shazhou will completely lose their connection with Xingqing, and the entire Xiping Military Division will be taken by the Jurchen. It will be a disaster for the party members, and there will be no retreat. For Da Song Xing Chaolai, it is really frustrating to lose the west of Ganzhou after fighting for so long.

The direct intervention of the Jin army made the party members fall into despair. Li Renxiao had to shrink his troops and make the last tenacious resistance, hoping to defeat the Song army and gain a little breathing time for himself. As for what else he could do, he didn't think too much about it. .

The northwest camp progressed very smoothly. Feng Yuan's Tianwu army forward arrived at the edge of the big river in the east of Yongzhou, but it was not stubbornly resisted by the Xia army.It was only when he reached the east bank of the great river that he encountered fierce resistance, but for him, it was a child's play, and he basically defeated the resistance without any effort.

Ren Dejing also had to fight. The Xia army deployed 12 troops in Jingzhou, Yongzhou, Huaizhou, and Shunzhou. The main force of the Proton Army was also stationed in Gaotaisi City to guard against possible attacks by the Song army. The last force, there is a glimmer of hope for successfully defeating the Song army, otherwise it will be lost forever.

The situation couldn't be worse, especially the defense of Xiping Mansion, which is almost in a state of disintegration, because the camp in the northwest reaches Dahe, which can completely pose a threat to the rear of Xiping Mansion. It can be said that Xiping Mansion has been abandoned and has become a stronghold to delay the Song army.

When the last batch of [-] infantry troops entered Lingwu County, the black-boned horse troops were ordered to withdraw into the Baojing Army, and the entire Xiping Mansion was isolated. Li Liangfu was also desperate and prepared for the final battle.
