Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 524
"You lead the headquarters first, cross Baitu Town directly, attack Pengcheng, create as much momentum as possible, and attract the army of the Southern Dynasty. I will lead the main force to insert between Pengcheng and Liguo. We must defeat the defenders of Pengcheng in one battle and isolate Wang Xiu. If there is a change, I can directly attack Liguo." Wu Shu said firmly.

He Lusuo is not a fool. He understands that Wushu leads ten thousand riders to wait for work at leisure, guard against the two generals of the Song army stationed in abundance, and completely isolate Li Guojian.However, all the big movements were for Gao Sheng's attack, otherwise there would be no big fanfare, which made him very unhappy.

"I wonder if Han Chang can reach Huai Shang?"

Wu Shu curled his lips, noncommittal, originally a suspicious soldier, who would have thought that with the joining of Yelu Mawu, it would sweep across the entire Suzhou and shake the Jianghuai defense line in the Southern Dynasty. It was really unexpected.Now, Yeluma Wu monitors Fuli, and Han Chang led the team to continue southward, crossing Xigu and approaching Zhongli, exceeding his calculations. In the Guantang issued yesterday, there was no overall guidance for the war, but Han Chang was only ordered to be cautious. Use troops, make a bold assault, if you can break through the Huai River, if you can't, retreat immediately.

"He Lusuo, don't look down on Han generals, sometimes their role is beyond ours." He thought of the last time Gao Sheng's sneak attack caused Wang Xiu's parents to die, and he was always restless, killing his father and taking his wife Oh god!He was already frightened by Wang Xiu's talent and strategy, and the endless situation made Wang Xiu the Jurchen's absolute enemy, and he already had the intention of beheading her.

If you choose Gaosheng, you hope to create another miracle, use the momentum of galloping horses to attract Wang Xiu to release the main force, and then strike with a thunderbolt to completely eliminate the serious troubles in your heart.

How did He Lusuo understand Wushu's mind, he smiled and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Lang, I will lead the army to kill there first, maybe I can capture Pengcheng."

"If you can conquer Pengcheng, I will record the first achievement of the Southern Expedition for you." Wu Shu didn't hold much hope. Xuzhou is a big town in the Central Plains. He Rusuo's horse army is very difficult to conquer.

However, he still had a glimmer of fantasy. If Pengcheng could be broken, Wang Xiu would definitely not be able to sit still. 78 would inevitably go south to compete for Pengcheng, and the success rate of Gao Sheng's attack would increase.

In other words, with the sudden arrival of the Jin army, the whole Xuzhou was in chaos.Fortunately, Wang Xiu had strict military orders, and all ministries strictly guarded the city without slackening, so that Helusuo did not succeed. The Jin army's forward cavalry arrived in the south of Pengcheng, and all the gates of the county were closed.

During the war, Baojia in each township gathered their young and strong men for backup. Wang Xiu arrived for formation and was ready to go into battle at any time. Pengcheng County assembled [-] township soldiers and soldiers, plus thousands of forbidden troops. It was by no means easy for the Jin army to defeat. .

Now, even the Liguojian has entered into war preparations. The people stay at home and are not allowed to go out to the streets for no reason. Lizheng and Baochang are responsible for maintaining it. Anyone who peeps on the edge of the city wall or spreads rumors without publicity will be punished. .

"Fourth brother, do you think the master has the confidence to defend Xuzhou?" Zong Liang and Feng Yuan cooked a pot of good tea on the tower of the south gate of Li Guojian, which was regarded as a leisure time during their busy schedule.But I saw willows and flowers planted along the embankment of the moat outside the city, all of which were withered, and there were many exquisite houses.

What a bustling place!With the continuous development of the copper and iron industry, Liguo has risen several levels in the past few years, becoming one of the places where wealthy businessmen gather in the world. The commercial area has long been extended outside the city. Xuzhou also plans to build the outer city of Liguojian. This time it will be good. The captives were much quieter when they beat them.

Feng Yuan curled his lips, and said indifferently: "Mr.'s work is unfathomable. I don't know, but I am worried about Shangshui's son harmony and the fifth and ninth brothers who participated in the war."

Zong Liang couldn't be reconciled, he smiled and said: "With you 78 generals here, even if the captives come, I won't be able to please them. I'm afraid that Pengcheng won't be able to defend."

"Pengcheng's two generals transferred one general, which is indeed much weaker, but there are nearly [-] people in the township army. The two generals are stationed abundantly and come back to help. It may not be able to defend the entire Xuzhou." Feng Yuan doesn't have to worry at all, he is wading in blood. Yes, still care about the storm?Obviously impossible.

Back then, General 78 dared to attack the inseparable Dazhai with 4000 men before he was fully fledged, and forcibly defeated the Jin Army. What are you afraid of.

"Don't be careless. Since the captives dare to come, they must be fully prepared."

Feng Yuan was stunned, and Zong Liang followed Wang Xiu. He had a reputation as a prime minister and had an extraordinary eye for seeing things. He couldn't help but take it seriously. He pondered for a while, and said seriously: "Brother, sir asked me to lead my troops to travel. Walking outside the city, there are only a thousand people in the city, and it is very dangerous before the abundant garrison arrives."

"That's exactly what Mr. Liguo Jianyou expected. He would rather abandon Pengcheng than keep Liguo." Zong Liang also put away his smile and said seriously.

"Brother, don't worry, what kind of character is Mr.? Back then, he was galloping on the battlefield. With my 78 elite generals, as long as we are careful, the captives will never succeed."

It was night, and Wang Xiu was deploying military affairs. Of course, he dispatched to Guantang early, dispatched more than [-] people from Fengpei and two generals back to aid Liguo, and deployed Liguo to supervise the city defense.Feng County and Pei County are important, but they are nothing compared to Li Guojian, not to mention that Wang Xiu asked them to keep some soldiers in Guantang.

Just as he was sending the supervisor away, he heard the sound of horns in the east of the city, and the galloping horses were like thunder. He couldn't help being shocked. His first thought was the night attack of the Jin army.

There is no reason!The Jin army hadn't arrived in Pengcheng yet, so how could it appear in the northeast of Liguo? This kind of movement would be impossible without thousands of horsemen.

"What's going on, go and have a look." His expression was a little strange.

Outside the city, Feng Yuan was very surprised, he didn't expect the Jin Army cavalry to appear suddenly, almost caught him off guard.I don't know if it was luck or bad luck. This Golden Army cavalry team hit the right side and directly attacked the camp where the 78th general's luggage and civilian husbands were. This area only had more than a thousand cavalry in the rear. Defense, holding back a large part of the Jin army.

He also reacted very quickly, and immediately assembled the horse army to maneuver, ordered the infantry and cavalry to form an army formation, took strict precautions, and counterattacked the Jin army at any time.However, the Jin army who crossed the heavy camp did not entangle with them, and charged towards the city gate with all their strength.

"Intercept them with all our strength, and we must not let them approach the city gate." Feng Yuan realized that the Jin army was rushing towards Wang Xiu. Although the city gate was closed at night during the war, no one could say that it was impossible. In order to stabilize people's hearts, Wang Xiu did not have it for a few days Close the door!He broke out in a cold sweat, and immediately desperately urged 78 to intercept all the ministries.

The Jin army's cavalry consisted of a hundred people, and they rushed to the city gate as much as possible, which increased the difficulty of the Song army's interception.However, there were still some cavalrymen who were intercepted. They had to fight to the death with the Song army, and then they were beheaded one by one.

At this time, the Jin army did not raise fire, and the Song army did not have a torch. The two sides judged by their eyesight under the moonlight and continued to fight.

After interrogating the captives, Feng Yuan was surprised to know that a cavalry team of the Golden Army had arrived in the hills northeast of Biantang Town yesterday, and had been lurking in the middle of the mountain depression, beheading many shepherds, and the defenders were kept in the dark.

The military order these Golden Army cavalrymen received was, at all costs, to raid Liguojian City at night, take Wang Xiu regardless of life or death, and have two meng'an to be assigned to other troops. There are a total of [-] cavalry, absolutely no waiting depending on it.

He quickly issued a death order, he must do whatever it takes, he must annihilate this group of captives, and they must not be allowed to approach the city gate.

The one who came was Gao Sheng. He was ordered to lead [-] cavalry. He quietly made a detour to deal a fatal blow to Liguo. He was also determined to take down Wang Xiu if he had the chance.Fortunately, he was almost undetected. He entered the position secretly, and then launched an attack on Liguo. He planned to approach the city gate quickly and use a strong attack. Before the Song army could react, he seized the city gate in one fell swoop and directly entered the city to take the king. show.

However, man is not as good as heaven. He thought that a civilian camp could be defeated by a single impact, and his speed would not be affected. He never expected that he would encounter more than a thousand infantry and cavalry of 78 generals. The soldier remained calm in the face of danger and showed high-quality combat skills, but he actually held back half of his troops, which was really unlucky.

Originally according to Wushu's calculations, when Wang Xiu heard that the main force of the Jin army was attacking Pengcheng, 78 generals would definitely go south. Who would have thought that the status of Liguo in Wang Xiu's heart was far higher than that of Pengcheng. The country is victory, and the 78th general had no plan to go south at all. Unfortunately, he encountered a hard stubble.

During the battle, as the large number of cavalry troops of the Song army continued to outflank them, and the infantry and cavalry were fortified layer by layer, he understood that the cooperation between the cavalry and cavalry was definitely the standard tactic of the 78 generals, and the emotional people did not go south. Miscalculated!
He is a bachelor, seeing that it is impossible to win, and there is a possibility of being left behind, he immediately sent an order to all the fighters not to love to fight, and to leave the battlefield immediately.

How can Feng Yuan allow the Jin army to escape, he has tens of thousands of elites, and let thousands of Jin troops run away, where is his face!It's better to find a piece of tofu and kill it. Almost all the troops are used to chase and intercept the Jin army. We must annihilate this group of ignorant lunatics and get back our face.

Gao Sheng was miserable, and the three thousand cavalry of the Golden Army was definitely a formidable force, at least able to fight tens of thousands of soldiers of the Song Army, but they might not necessarily be defeated.But in the hands of the 78th general, it was not enough to see at all. Those who retreated were in a panic. Many cavalry were intercepted and killed. Even he himself was surrounded twice, and he almost lost his life.

Wang Xiu climbed up the tower to prepare for the battle, and gradually understood the military situation from the battlefield. She couldn't help but put on a sneer, and said to herself, "It's a good plan, but it's a pity that you don't know who I am!"
