Shao Song

Vol 2.2 Chapter 46: Firelight

“Shao Song ( to find the latest chapter!

To be honest, Wen Dun Sizhong absolutely wronged a person.

Among the four people who Wen Dun Sizhong thought had abandoned him, Han Shizhong and Li Yanxian didn’t need to say much, they really regarded him as nothing. And his little brother for many years, almost spent more than ten years in A Gu’s account with him, the gold medal Langjun Wanyan Benxi should be regarded as ignoring him.

However, Jin Guotaiyuan stayed behind, Taiyuan Marching Sidutong, and the actual commander-in-chief of the West Route Army, Wanyan Ba ​​Lisu, could not be said to have given up Wen Dun Sizhong.

Pulling speed should just feel that there is no need to specifically notify Wen Dun Sizhong, especially when the Taiyuan left-behind has dispatched the main force to the south.

If the army arrived directly, it would naturally save Wen Dun Sizhong by the way. And if it is predicted that there is a high probability of not being able to arrive, let Hezhong Mansion go up and down to guard the city with peace of mind, and finally get five hundred righteous men in the Hezhong Mansion, and Taizu Agu will take care of the old heroes and die for the country. By the way, delay some troops and time, it is not too big. Is Jin Guo’s loyal minister?

What do you want to tell me specifically?

It can only be said that Wen Dun Sizhong is still emotionally unstable, unable to appreciate the kindness of his superiors.

In fact, on the third day after Wen Dun Sizhong’s emotional breakdown, that is, the fifth day of October, the fast-moving Taiyuan reinforcements encountered the Song Army at the junction of the Linfen Basin and the Hezhong (Yuncheng) Basin.

And if the battlefield is expanded to a hundred miles around the point where the two sides encounter each other, then the actual forces involved in this battle will be scary.

In the direction of the Kingdom of Jin, at least three veteran households of the Jinuo West Route Army, including 10,000 households in the Wanyan Balisu headquarters, 10,000 households in the Wanyan Tuhesu headquarters, and 10,000 households in the Wanyan conversion department, went into the battle. . The Song Jun here includes Li Yanxian’s headquarters, and his subordinates Shao Long, Lu Monk, Song Yan, Jia He, Yan Ping, Zhao Cheng, Zhai Jin, Zhai Cong, Zhai Chong, Niu Gao, Dong Xian, total Thirty-five thousand people, plus Ma Kuo’s rebels, who couldn’t count the numbers and numbers at all, pressed in together.

Or to put it another way, Pulling Lisu hastily mobilized the main force he could awaken in the vicinity of Taiyuan, and came directly, and Li Yanxian almost only left the most stable Shao Yun sitting on the ground, plus himself. My brother Li Kui used to be the rear support, and the rest was the first time the whole army pressed him.

Considering that there were figures from both sides of the unity level in this battle, it can be said that it was the first large-scale battle of the Song Army after the Northern Expedition.

But the First World War itself was extremely chaotic.

First of all, both sides sent troops hurriedly, both came from long distances… For the Jin Army, it was 550 miles from Taiyuan to Tieling, and there were small-scale attacks that the Taihang Rebels had prepared for along the way; on the other side Even if Li Yanxian decisively left Jiezhou directly from Zhongtiao Mountain and was only one hundred and forty-five miles away from Tieling Pass, don’t forget that the area of ​​Jiezhou north of Zhongtiao Mountain before the war had penetrated to a certain extent, but it was still golden. The army belongs to the army, so it is inevitable to establish temporary logistics channels and divide the troops into siege to a few stubborn cities and towns.

Therefore, no matter which side it is, it is inevitable to fight in a state of exhaustion, and the marching route is chaotic and the arrival time varies.

Secondly, there is unequal combat power on both sides.

For example, on the Jinjun side, the tens of thousands of households who are directly under the speed of pulling out are not only the best equipped and experienced veterans, but also the number of murderers in a Meng’anli is also relatively large, often reaching one Meng’an seven or eight. Mok… There is even a ten elite Mok that is modeled on the personal guard Meng’an formed in Hezhameng Ontario.

Relatively speaking, the Wanyan Zhanhe and Wanyan Tu Hefu, which suffered the most losses in the Yaoshan War before, inevitably had many soldiers recruited after the war. Between Meng’an and Meng’an, there were more soldiers. The relationship between Ke and Mo Ke is also from the sky to the underground.

A similar situation is even worse in Song Jun.

Because Li Yanxian is active on both sides of the Yellow River all year round, it has never counted the number of people. It just sent him military salary and ordnance materials according to the organization, and then Li Yanxian sent it down from the control officer level, so its tribe has a very strong force. Personal hilltop color.

Among them, Li Yanxian himself did not mention several core troops in Heping Lucheng in Shanzhou City. For more troops, their combat effectiveness depends on the level and integrity of the commander himself, so that the difference in the combat effectiveness of the troops is often in an unbelievable situation.

What’s more, there is also an army brought by Ma Kuo, which is basically an auxiliary army equipment.

Finally, the terrain is complex.

The surrounding area of ​​Tieling Pass is at the junction of Linfen Basin and Hezhong Basin (Yuncheng Basin), where plains, mountains and hills are mixed. Moreover, the focal point of the battle, Tieling Pass itself is not a male pass… Moreover, its surroundings are not exaggerated to the point that one man can be used as a pass.

There is also a Fenshui channel next to the Yellow River to the west, and Jiangxian County to the east is also feasible. Tieling Pass is by no means the only channel that can be used. Even the surrounding mountains are not a dead end. There is a small pass in Luotuoling, dozens of miles west of Tieling Pass. No one could tell the trail that the mountain people walked through.

Of course, this does not delay Tieling Pass itself is still the most important hub between the Linfen Basin and the Hezhong (Yuncheng) Basin, and it is still a typical battleground for soldiers, especially here is the Shangdang Basin next door to the Hezhong Mansion. The end of Zhe Guanxing.

In short, under the influence of these complicated factors, the fighting process is fierce and chaotic, **** and extremely dramatic.

In just one day, Tieling Pass changed hands three times.

In the early morning of this day, a local rebel army dispatched by Ma Kuo came to seize the customs, and the leader of the rebel army who followed Ma Kuo from Wumashan followed the command of his commander in casual clothes. Later, they tried to defraud the customs from the rear, but they were detected by the garrisoned Jin army and failed.

The Rebels lacked equipment and the ability to tackle tough problems, and were unable to do anything for a while.

But soon, as Song Jun Lu’s commander vanguard led hundreds of regular troops to arrive and launched an attack, the commander of this nominal army immediately realized the existence of the opposite side in Guanbei, and then made a strong north-south attack. The mountain people from the rebel army were selected to wear double-layer leather armor, and Climb Juehe sneaked into the pass, unexpectedly succeeded.

There were only one or two hundred defenders in the gold army at Tieling Pass. One point was broken, and they were directly slaughtered by the influx of Song army.

Immediately afterwards, more or less subordinates of the Lu Monk, Zhai Cong, and Zhao Cheng departments arrived in sequence. The rebels under Ma Kuo’s command ranged from five to six hundred to one or two thousand, and they also appeared from the east.

In the morning, the Song army around Tieling Pass actually exceeded 10,000 at most.

At this time, the Golden Army troops have not yet been traced.

Overjoyed, or greedy for merit, or underestimate the enemy, or homesick, or there is a military order to seize the geography, or it is purely that everyone has come in hastily, and there is no one who can control the deployment of these discipline books. The poor troops, anyway, none of the armies can stand it. Except for Monk Lu who knew to leave a few hundred people, all the other armies rushed out of Tieling Pass and marched towards the Linfen Basin to the north.

Instead, they seized villages and towns one after another, and even some troops were plundered and raped, as well as scattered fires between local rebels and foreign rebels.

The result of this is that in the afternoon, after the main forward force of the Jin Army appeared on the flat ground in the Linfen Basin, the Song Army was unable to organize at all. He could only watch the thousands of Jin Jin under the supervision of the Suhesu Banner. The army cavalry passed through the river calmly and launched a raid on the scattered nearly ten thousand Song army.

Moreover, there are more and more Jin Jun.

Facing the formed Jurchen cavalry, coupled with his own chaos and aggressive advancement, the Song army was defeated on the plain that was more than ten kilometers wide from the north of Tieling Pass to the Huishuijian, and even Zhao Cheng lost his message.

Moreover, after discovering the fact that most of the opposing Song army was only a poorly equipped mountain rebel army, a commander of the Golden Army took advantage of the situation to defeat the army and press the pass, and actually pressed into the Tieling Pass all the way.

Facing the friendly forces who were oppressed by the Jin army and fell into desperation in panic, the closed officer Lu Monk had no ability to deal with them at all. He lost the checkpoint in a bewildered manner and scattered to the south of Guan with his own troops and these broken allies.

However, the matter is not over yet. In the chaos, just after the Jin Army pressed into the Tieling Pass, while more Jin and Song troops were still in chaos on the south side of the mouth, the real main force of the Song Army arrived. Li Yanxian personally visited the prison.

Seeing the densely packed flags and neat armors surrounding the ‘mainstay’ big hu from south to north like a wave, Jin Jun Meng’an, who had just entered the pass without a sip of tea, suddenly became a little flustered. At the same time, those Taihang rebels also exerted their own unique advantages… Although they collapsed quickly, they could quickly assemble after escaping into the mountains. In addition, at this time, they saw their main force arriving in the mountains. The handsome officials also arrived, and they were full of confidence. They went to the plain to the north to support the defeated army, obstruct the group’s golden army, and tried to attack the small group of golden army.

Jin Jun came to chase after seeing this, but was unable to chase Shangling at all. He could only watch these light-moving rebels regroup and rush out again.

For a while, Guanbei was in a deadlock.

At this time, the Tuhesubu Meng’an who broke into Tieling Pass was completely unable to sustain himself. He was afraid of being surrounded by the main force of the Song army and being attacked at night. He didn’t even figure out the internal structure of this level… The squad was heartbroken, but he chose to take the initiative to evacuate, but he gave away the pass without even raising the flag.

Many of the Golden Army didn’t even know that some of them had taken Tieling Pass…the so-called sloppy attack, and sloppy giving up.

The sky gradually dimmed, and the light prevented all the scuffles. The Jin Army contracted towards the Huishui Ferry in the northeast direction behind him. Li Yanxian also ordered the entire army to camp.

For the time being, I will not mention how Li Yanxian cleaned up the mess, and then tried to figure out the course of the daytime war and the current situation that may not be clear for a lifetime.

On the other side, the golden army violently withdrew and returned to a market that had been empty on the bank of Xushui just twenty miles away. It didn’t take long, that is, when it was just dark, he just grabbed one. The house was about to find two eggs, but it was suddenly called over by thousands of households.

At that time, I secretly cried out that it was not good.

When the guards following Suhesu arrived at a place with a bonfire outside the market, they saw that in addition to Suhesu, there were several familiar middle-aged generals sitting there cross-legged, and the back of their heads cooled, and then hurriedly fetched them. After going out, he put on the pocket-chi on the ground, then bent over and arched his hands.

“Get up.”

Cross-legged Suzusu frowned slightly. “Where did you learn from Song people like this?”

“It’s okay to learn from the Song people, I’m afraid that the good ones will not learn the bad ones.” The person behind the bonfire, who is in the middle position, Palisu himself, said quietly through the fire. “I remember your name is Su Wu? Is it a veteran?”

“Yes.” Na Meng’an didn’t listen well, so he stood up and intervened. “Do Tong and tens of thousands of households want to listen to today’s war?”

Intervening, it means hearing the order and making a gesture of plea, regardless of Song Jin, it is a unified appearance.

“I didn’t ask you to come here.” Su Hesu said as he stretched out his leg, but he was itchy by the fire and hammered the old wound on his foot directly through the boot. “Just now, Dutong and I have summoned a lot of menaces, murderers, and others who entered the customs with you… The situation today is also clear. It is a chaotic battle. Everyone is tired and confused… But you After all, only when Li Yanxian’s army arrived, he cowered, and if he didn’t fight, he would abandon it, right?”

Su Wu was silent for a moment, before gritted his teeth and made a decision: “Today, I have lost two points of spine, but I can let Du Tong and the tens of thousands of households know that the situation was really confused at the time. No one came to respond to me, so I was thinking that I shouldn’t easily throw Erlang’s life… But after the military plane was lost, Su Wu had nothing to say… Dutong, Wanhu, I was willing to hand over the silver medal of this march, Meng An, It’s a crime to go home.”

The scene was quiet and terrifying for a while, whether it was the sudden closing speed or the closing that had not said a word, and the other qualified Meng An present, couldn’t help but look at the bonfire together and couldn’t see the detachment of the face. speed.

This Su Wu is a violent security. Seeing this situation, why didn’t he know that he had committed a charge, he hurriedly dealt with it seriously: “Could it be that before I came, you all agreed on a statement, and watched my reply, and then dealt with it? Ten thousand households! Kilometer said that I was a hereditary maneuver. I have been marching for seven years and Meng’an. In private, I followed you when I destroyed the Liao Dynasty. You hurt your foot during the Qiaoshan battle, or I came down with you… How many years of friendship, is it possible to kill me for this kind of thing?”

One more thing here, the Jin Army’s Meng’an Muke system has multiple functions, concurrently titled, military rank, and civil officer. Later, the Eight Banners were basically based on the invention of A Gu Da… For example, in the Wanyan Lou room, he was the military division. The tens of thousands of households holding gold medals are hereditary and have their own private army. At the same time, because of hereditary Meng’an in Huanglong Mansion, their father and son also enjoy the taxation, judicial, and administrative powers of Huanglong Mansion.

Of course, with the reform of Wanyan Xiyin, the role of the official of the people is no longer considered, but the meaning of the title is still…Before the king was crowned, the hereditary Meng’an within the Kingdom was still the hardest identity, hereditary conspiracy. Second only… because it means they have a hereditary army.

As for Daikin, the nation was founded by the military.

But how to say it?

Times have changed.

“Total!”

Seeing Su Wu saying this, Su Hesu couldn’t help looking at the person behind the bonfire with a gesture of prayer.

However, there was a moment of silence in response to the sudden rush.

Suddenly he sighed helplessly, and had no choice but to look at his subordinates: “Come here and I will all kneel down!”

The hero didn’t suffer from the immediate loss, this Su Wu hurried over, and he knelt down across the bonfire at the place where Su Hesu had stretched his legs, and was about to kowtow again. It was just that Su Wu, who knew that his family’s legs and feet were not good, didn’t dare to neglect, so he hurriedly helped Su Hesu up before kneeling again.

However, when Su Wu knelt down again, Su Wu suddenly touched the steel hammer in his waist, and flicked the head of his subordinate for many years.

With just a wave, he didn’t know if the marching troops were safe and hereditary, he would not have time to hear the wind behind his head, so he threw himself directly in front of the bonfire.

Immediately, his own personal guards stepped forward to make up for the knife, and at the sudden and rapid signal, he cut off the head of the person and handed it over to the judge on the side to let them pass the lead to the public.

Then the lame tens of thousands ignored the headless corpse on the ground still bleeding, and directly sat down cross-legged.

After a while, the body was also dragged away, but the atmosphere around the campfire was still not good.

“In this battle, we actually took advantage.” Unexpectedly, the first person to express dissatisfaction was the Wanyan who had never spoken before and had nothing to do with this person.

“I can’t help it either.” All the people who carried an iron hook were all swiftly and helplessly facing each other. “There has been no war in five years. These people have long been confused. After doing this kind of thing, they don’t say they will make up for their work, but they just want to abandon their jobs and return home. How important is the First World War! Where are there eggs to eat after defeating? There are still big houses to live in?”

“That’s the truth.” Suhe Suo, who had just killed his confidant with his own hands, unexpectedly stood on the side of Ba Lisu.

“Song Jun is not going anywhere,” Wan Yan continued to say. “And it’s just as ridiculous that they despise our appearance.”

“Not to mention advancing aggressively, underestimating the enemy’s arrogance, at any rate it is enterprising.” Pull Lisu continued to oppose. “And why is it worse than it? This is the marching security and hereditary conspiracy in the big golden iron cavalry!”

“At that day, Yaoshan, you could see clearly on the plateau, really didn’t think about it in your heart?” Wanyan Zhehe finally became a little impatient. “Qi! That’s the qi! The qi that shakes the mountains and rivers! I have been unified with the old people!”

“Even if you can’t shake mountains and rivers, you can’t!”

“Okay, we are in a military discussion, what are we going to argue about?” Wanyan suddenly heard that it was not good, and couldn’t help his voice a little louder. “Well, we still have two hundred thousand households, of which one hundred thousand cavalry! With the addition of the Yanshan New Army, this battle is a big battle according to my point of view, the victory or defeat is five to five points… It’s just Dutong, how are you? The general of the commander side should always have some plans for the overall situation in his heart? Really want to give up?”

“You really can’t fight like this.” Ba Lisu recovered his Qingming, but he pulled up the bonfire in front of him with a hook in his hand, causing a burst of sparks. “From the overall situation, the battle line is three thousand miles, we must have the cavalry style of play… The fourth prince has reached a certain point, and I am writing to ask him to come to Taiyuan…”

“Are you saying that the united army defeated each one?” Su Hesu frowned. “Where to break first? How to guard the other side?”

“This requires the Fourth Prince to decide.” Pull Lisu shook his head in response. “But let me be honest, at least this is not a good place for a decisive battle… It is also a Guan, a mountain, a river and a ridge, and the Song Army supply line is shorter than us… If you really want to fight a big battle here. In case of defeat, it may end up like a battle with Qin Zhao Changping.”

“I don’t know what the Battle of Changping is, but I also feel that this place is not a good place for a decisive battle.” Su He quickly nodded in agreement. “Behind Linfen is not…Although the middle is flat, there are mountains on the left and right. The flat ground in the middle is too narrow and the cavalry advantage cannot be obtained. It is better to lure the enemy to go deeper and lead them to the city of Taiyuan, and then use cavalry to lock the exits on all sides and do it again. The battle of Taiyuan… what do you think?”

“That’s about it.” Pulling Lisu was honest. “As long as anyone who came from the West Route Army and fought in Taiyuan, I guess they have the same mindset…we have discussed it before.”

“So, do you want to withdraw troops right now?” Wan Yanzhe suddenly interrupted.

“How is it possible to withdraw troops?” Pulling speed frowned, and his tone finally became intense. “Strategy is strategy, tactics are tactics, and morale of the army is morale of the army… We are beyond the reach of Hezhong Palace, but here is the first major battle between the two countries in many years. How could it have withdrawn like this? Don’t forget what we discussed in the past few years. The time when the Song Army took Xixia, although it was due to the overall situation, the four princes repeatedly avoided the battle in the early stage. As a result, they could not fight decisively when they arrived in the loop, which caused morale to deteriorate. This is a lesson! Now in this situation, whether or not to lure the enemy deeper, Or break it separately, it must be done with all your strength first! Don’t weaken this energy first! In short, what’s going on with you in the past few years?!”

Wanyan was half-hearted and hesitated.

Suddenly, upon seeing this, he hurriedly ranted again: “Okay…they must have an idea, let’s talk about it!”

“What can be said, of course, the cavalry was concentrated, and the raid went around the back.” Pulling speed was awe-inspiring. “I thought about it…Although they were all marching in a hurry, the main force of the Song Army was pawns, which was more tiring than us… Our cavalry used horses, especially those who rushed to the war later today, and the energy is still… so Don’t begrudge the horses. Taking advantage of Li Yanxian’s unsteady footing, I am afraid that even the scouts will not be dispatched at this time. Let’s set off now with a fine cavalry, and we will have a night raid from Jiangxian. It can’t be a miraculous effect!”

Suddenly nodded slightly.

Wanyan was stunned for a moment, and then looked at these two people again…The army that suddenly joined the speed is the vanguard, universality entered the war today, it doesn’t matter if you just killed a fierce security, the key is that the army is very tired, and pulls the speed away. Although elite and the number of cavalry is huge, is this kind of army used to outflank it at night?

That is for decisive battles.

At this point, Wanyan thought about it, and seriously asked by the bonfire: “If it is a rush, how far will the armor be reduced?”

“Helmet, armor body, armor skirt… face mask, heavy eaves (neck guard), shoulder girdle… these affect activities, you don’t need to bring it.” Pulling speed blurted out.

“Also.” Wan Yan asked seriously again. “I am a tens of thousands, alone behind the enemy, separated by a mountain. If the war is unfavorable, can I retreat at any time at my own discretion?”

Pulling away the speed instinct just wanted to respond.

But for some reason, when he was about to speak, he suddenly thought of something…The Battle of Yaoshan, Wanyan Lou Shiran assaulted from the northeast of the Song Army barracks, and ended up accidentally falling into the swamp and becoming a living target. At that time, Zhanhefen didn’t dare to move, but he sent messengers to ask Lou’s chamber in succession. Before Lou Shi gave the order, Zhanhe and his headquarters shot at the Song Army in the mud, and did not move at all, so that he suffered heavy losses.

If Lou Shi is here today, how could it be so perfunctory? Where would you ask such things?

“Can’t withdraw it?” It was folded into a frown.

“Why don’t I go!” Suddenly interrupted helplessly when he saw this.

“No…” Pulling reacted quickly and nodded immediately. “It means that you are a millionaire, and I also said, this is just doing your best, the tone of fighting for the first battle is nothing but danger. How could you and your Bulang die before the war? I haven’t given up on such lunatics as Wendun Sizhong in the river.”

Turning nodded, he got up and got ready to go.

Seeing this, Ba Lisu quickly got up to catch up, but he grabbed the other person by the bonfire, and sincerely said: “Simply, we have been in love with each other for decades. At this time, I really shouldn’t be angry…Where did I do it? It’s unsatisfactory. Even if you speak up on official matters, you can talk about private matters now…”

The unshaven Wanyan looked at Suzusu, and then at Suzusu who hurriedly got up with the blood stains, after all, he sighed slightly:

“I think about it a lot… How do I not know that this time is a national war, a life and death battle between the two countries? How do I not know that those **** are getting worse every day? How do I not know before and after Tieling Pass, regardless of victory or defeat, this Should I resort to all my strengths at the time? And this man only fights. If you have a military order, I will do my best… If you just said that you are not allowed to retreat, I won’t say anything… just Dutong! I just don’t understand, why did Dajin Kingdom’s iron knights behave like this? It’s not that Song people can fight and dare to fight, but why Jurchens are not willing to endure hardship? Why are we thinking more and more. More? When the old people were there, there were no such things!”

Pulling speed was unable to answer the other party, or even though he knew the answer, he was unwilling to answer the other party. Moreover, the other party stated that he would abide by the military order, but he didn’t have the same impetuosity as before.

After seeing the situation, Wan Yanzhan didn’t say much, and suddenly nodded with a bit of amazement, then turned around.

After a while, it can only be said that the military discipline of the Jurchens is still in place. Although the translation department complains repeatedly, it swiftly gathered in accordance with Meng’an Muke, and then gathered about fifty Muke, a total of five thousand fine horses, overnight. To the east, prepare to bypass the passage between Jiangxian County and Taihang Mountain on the east side to attack Li Yanxian at night.

In Hedong for several years, the generals of the Jin Army were still familiar with geography, about one hundred and twenty miles away, within the limit of a war horse’s long-range raid (two hundred miles).

If this distance is fast, it is estimated that two or three hours (four to six hours), that is, it will be there before midnight. If it is slower, for example, if you want to leave room for retreat and slow down the speed of the horse, it will be the most It’s thicker at midnight.

All in all, this is within the radius of the cavalry combat theory… and the Jurchen cavalry has definitely played more bitter and more extreme tactical moves than this… but it is still dangerous and a surprise attack that tests the capabilities of the troops.

Especially at the moment, Jin Jun seems to have lost the energy that shakes mountains and rivers, but he doesn’t know if he can survive it.

But the fact is that Wanyan completed the military order in full. At midnight, when not sure how many people were left behind, after the golden army veteran successfully arrived at the gate, after a little preparation, he began to be extremely rudimentary. The Song Army Camp set fire to a raid.

This is the cavalry, this is the strength and significance of the elite cavalry.

Cavalry has never had any strategic mobility. No cavalry can break away from logistics and march day and night. They will fight for three thousand miles in half a month, but within a few days, tactically, they can do things that infantry can’t or even think of. .

And since Wanyan Zhanhe launched a surprise attack, the fire was everywhere, and the killing sound shook the sky, and immediately, Pulling Speed ​​also rate the headquarters to launch an assault before shutting down.

Frankly speaking, Li Yanxian underestimated the enemy.

He is also a human being. After the death of his old opponent Lou Shi, after eight years of sitting in the army, he was the only commander of the army who had a stronghold in Hedong. He was different from Han Shizhong’s posture before the war. He was extremely eager to stretch his fists and feet. , Can become the vanguard of the main attack direction.

In fact, he was the first to grab Tieling Pass, but he actually underestimated the enemy.

In fact, he did nothing wrong when he came to Tieling Pass. After capturing Tieling Pass, he immediately clamped down and set up a camp, and they were not allowed to enter the pass. They were only allowed to stand with their backs, and then they had no time to deal with the daytime melee. The sentry rider crossed the battlefield that had just been calmed down to investigate the movement of the Jin army.

But as soon as the troops in the day’s melee were withdrawn, Palisu urged Wanyanzhe to send troops in the dark.

Therefore, he just didn’t make a prediction.

But still underestimating the enemy.

At the same time, what is more intuitive and terrible is that Li Yanxian’s combat effectiveness is really mixed, which can be easily seen from the battle process.

The chaos started from the Yan Ping department. The camp that was rushed up by his department was easily trampled down by the Jin army, but was quickly stopped by Dong Xian’s department… Dong Xian, a man recognized as greedy for money, but recognized as a good warrior. Chaos is obvious in his defense zone. After slowing down, this gave Song Jun a respite.

Li Yanxian ascended the pass and watched this scene from a distance, his face sinking like water, but there was no good way.

Night attack, since ancient times, he can only sit inside the gate and stabilize the camps from the inside out. If it is really forced to send troops to rescue at night, with the level of soldiers and horses of these peripheral troops, I am afraid that the number of soldiers swallowed by the chaos itself will far exceed the damage of this cavalry itself.

And this is the southern part of the Guannan. It is an organizational unit. The northern Guanbei has become a mess. The rebels and a small part of the remnants of the imperial Chinese army that have been gathered after a whole day of chaos are simply pulling away. The swift raid blew up the camp.

Fortunately, the day-to-day experience made them know that they can drill into the mountains.

“Judgment.”

In the chaos, one person followed Li Yanxian’s guard to hurriedly boarded the pass, handing over to each other, it was the deputy general of Dong Xian Zhang Qi. “My family’s control asked me to report that it was the Jin Army who could not take advantage of us. It seemed that they were preparing to withdraw and change to another camp to rush…”

“I saw it.” Li Yanxian took a deep breath in a cold tone.

While Zhang Qi looked down and took advantage of the situation, he knew why Li Jiedu was like this. Here in Guanbei, there were seven battalions of the Song Army, one was broken, one was fighting, and there were only three of the remaining five at this time. When I got up, there were two half-lit ones, and they were a bit chaotic… Obviously, these two camps used this method to remind the Golden Army when they were facing a surprise attack. They are weak and can come to them. !

Zhang Qi wanted to persuade Li Yanxian, but he didn’t know what to say…Today’s battle, the Song army’s attitude of underestimating the enemy’s merits, arrogance and indulgence was undoubtedly revealed.

This is not one family or two families. This is a systemic problem that exists in the imperial army under three years of agitation, recuperation and good treatment.

Other places will surely have all kinds of strange things and troubles, and they will have to buy blood to buy lessons.

Thinking like this, suddenly, Zhang Qi felt that he seemed to be brighter in front of him. He looked towards the closed camp, only to find that it was only a moment, and the situation of closing the camp had not substantially changed.

For a moment, Zhang Boyu (Zhang Qi) only felt that his eyes were flashed by light at night, but the next moment, he noticed that Li Yanxian, who was already as sinking as water, did not look at the chaos of the camp below. It is looking to the southeast.

To the southeast are mountains, Zhongtiao Mountain, Wangwu Mountain, Taihang Mountain, all mountains… The fifth day of the lunar calendar in early winter, it should be dark in the dark.

But Zhang Qi saw a single spark in the mountains.

Although it is small, it is by no means a spark from a nearby torch, but a slight spark flashing in the dark mountains to the southeast.

Zhang Qi made a gesture. According to his judgment, there should be the entrance of the Taihang Wangwu Mountain, Zhuantianling, the Xileng Pass, and the passage through which Zhiguanxing drilled out of the mountain.

Is it the Golden Army reinforcements from Lund House?

Zhang Qi thought of the worst possible possibility in an instant, and if it were like this, the army would be ruined tonight!

But is it going to be withdrawn?

Withdrawing at this time will only cause the entire camp to collapse. It is impossible to say that the main force of the North Golden Army will take advantage of the situation and influx. Then the Song Army will be defeated without the Golden Army of Longde Mansion.

Moreover, if it is the Golden Army, why is there so little in the direction of the Jin Army from Taiyuan who came to surprise? Why don’t you make every effort to ride, and even the Jin Army of Longde Mansion will block all your troops here? !

If it’s the Golden Army of Lund House, then there is no reason for the Chief Ma, who is already in the mountains, not to notice, right? He can even detect the movements of the Taiyuan Golden Army!

Will it be the suspicious plan of the Jin Army’s assault troops?

Regardless of the possibility, Li Jedu must be persuaded to stabilize and defend Tieling Pass and Guanbei Yingpan.

At this point, Zhang Qi looked at Li Yanxian again, only to find that Li Jiedu, who was wearing a cloak, was still sinking, but he couldn’t look at the camp in front of him. He just stared to the southeast and bit his fingernails.

Zhang Qi had nothing to say, and couldn’t help biting his nails.

But at this moment, the stars in the distant mountains suddenly jumped and turned into several stars, then dozens of stars, hundreds of stars, densely packed stars, and then a complex and long line of fire appeared. In the distant mountains, it is constantly extending, winding and connecting.

In the end, within a short quarter of an hour, like a spell, a whole fire dragon appeared in the mountains, and because of its folding and ghosting, it formed a sea of ​​fire.

From a distance, the whole mountain seemed like wildfire.

Its momentum is violent, and once the mountains have been paved, it will surely start a prairie fire.

Zhang Qi was relieved. He woke up from the beginning of the line of fire showing the strange winding shape. This is not the Jin Jun. Jin Jun came directly from Zhiguanxing. It will only be a bigger and bigger one. Sparks, and then turned into flames… At this moment, it can only be the rebels of Ma Kuo coming down the mountain!

They had also gathered in a hurry and came towards this place, and then marched through the mountains for several days. They should have been forced to spend another night in the cold early winter mountains and descend again tomorrow morning. But obviously, when they discovered the dazzling fire here, and realized what had happened, they chose to light the torch and go down the mountain overnight.

In the early winter, the grass and trees were bleak and the dew was wet, but the astonishing number of Taihang rebels was in full swing at night.

After winning the first battle, Wanyan Zhehe and several of his subordinates Meng’an stared blankly at the flames that suddenly appeared behind them. The sight of uukanshu.com, which is known to be man-made, but still shows a natural spectacle, reminded them many things.

But right now, this mountain of fire has only one meaning-if they dare to stay here, they are likely to be surrounded by everything.

Therefore, we should blow the horn as soon as possible and order the army to withdraw in the same way.

However, it may be that this shocking ‘Star Volcano’ is so eye-catching that it took a long time before it came to mind at the urging of subordinates and issued a military order.

The sound of the trumpet sounded repeatedly, not only awakened many Jurchen cavalry, but also awakened a group of people about twenty miles away to the southwest.

“It’s so boring!”

Han Shizhong, who was riding a horse, also recovered from the man-made volcano, turned his head and smiled at Niu Gao on his side. “Your family Jiedu and I both thought that he was the lead singer of this drama. As a result, he went early and only sang a warm-up scene. When I came late, he only sang the ending part, but the main show I was condescended by the horse manager and sang it to the public, and the singing was in such a condition… It’s so good! It deserves a reward!”

Niu Gao, who was arrested to lead the way, said nothing, pretending to be deaf and dumb.

But Xie Yuan couldn’t help it anymore: “Fifth Brother! Think of you as Changan and Yuwen Xianggong watching the drama together?! The Jinjun must withdraw, but he is absolutely exhausted, so he quickly lit a torch and caught up. Come on! Definitely a gain!”

Han Shizhong raised his head and laughed, but he suddenly changed his color. He turned his head back in the night and gave orders to the thousands of Jingqi behind him. Then the whole army released the prohibition and set fire together. Another fire dragon appeared out of thin air, reflecting the volcano. At the same time, he rushed forward at a speed that caught Jin Jun by surprise.

As soon as the horn was issued, the face was closed without hesitation, and he beat the horse and left.
