Chapter 520 Heaven (Part 2)(1/2)

Renduolingding was like earth on the large bank of the central army. Since the war started, the losses were mainly from Erliang. Renduolingding's subordinates did not suffer heavy losses. They were nothing more than attacking the Xueni Fort, losing a lot of troops, but they took the Xueni Fort and shot dead the Song army's chief general.

So Renda Lingding was extremely prestigious in the army, but he did not expect that the damn Song people finally attacked him.

The news on both sides is simply bad news.

How many soldiers and horses have been lost now cannot be counted. But I believe it will be a very painful number.

And he also wants to stop the situation from getting worse.

Don’t think about Mengmen Sancha. The Song Dynasty sent more than 10,000 troops. I don’t believe this. It was probably because Wang Zangbu’s ugliness and exaggerated the number of Song troops. But I believe that the troops would not be small, otherwise I would not have defeated Wang Zangbu’s 15,000 troops so quickly. I didn’t even dare to use the small village behind to block it when I ran away. Even the small village and the soldiers from several outposts fled to Xigu Village.

This guess is not far from the truth.

I believe that so many officers and soldiers of the Song Dynasty also captured a lot of prisoners of war. These prisoners of war were also laborers. Moreover, there were some empty small villages around, and there were people in the villages, and they were laborers. When they sent out their army, let alone the two ice walls, even the real city walls were similarly built. Moreover, facing a strong enemy from the south, could they divide the army to carry out a second counterattack?

Tongsaichuan Road was completely interrupted!

This is the first judgment made by Rendor Lingding.

The second judgment is also what Renda Lingding is most worried about.

According to reports from the front, it was said that the Song Dynasty sent out countless troops. Although the night attack tactics of Yelecheng were not very successful, his subordinates also organized it in time. However, they were outnumbered, and finally, the three armies were defeated under the internal and external cooperation of the Song army.

This is also an exaggeration.

It is estimated that the Song Dynasty sent no more troops than Yele City, or even less troops. Otherwise, there would be no need to wait for the Song army to break out in the city, and it would be even more impossible for the three armies to collapse after more than an hour of stalemate.

Therefore, the troops sent by the Song Dynasty may be around 10,000, or even more than 10,000. But there will not be much more. However, this Song army came from Qingzhou City, which shows that last night, Song Ji's 20,000 soldiers had been completely defeated, and was almost wiped out by the entire army.

However, the Song army gathered the Song army in Yele City at this time. The actual force did not decrease due to casualties. Instead, it increased, and it also leveraged the power of a great victory and had the strange skateboard speed. So rested in a hurry and had a breakfast. Maybe it would attack Wujiao Town again.

Wujiao Town has arranged a 20,000 army, but there is also a Song army in Wujiao Town. The back of Wujiao Town is Huanzhou City and Ansai Village, where there is an ancient force. If they interspersed from the path last night, the Song people would gain an absolute military advantage on the local battlefield. At that time, the three armies will be dispatched together, and the attacks on the left and right, and the Xia army in Wujiao Town will be in danger!

This is not a serious consequence. If three Song troops gather after the Wujiao Town Battle, continue to rush to Huai'an Town, and join Yanda in another internal and external cooperation, his army will be in danger. It has nothing to do with military strength. Although his troops may have a slight advantage at that time, his morale will be different.

If Yele Town is defeated, he will be defeated, but Wujiao Town cannot be lost. Otherwise, hundreds of thousands of Xia troops might have been eaten by the Song army in one bite... Thinking of this, he couldn't help but fight a cold war.

So he immediately sent five thousand troops to support Yele Town.

In fact, the attack on this point, and the Western Xia army was dispersed, the troops were no longer so sufficient.

Five thousand soldiers rushed to Wujiao Town immediately.

Ren Duoling Ding continued to think.

Now it made him feel something was wrong. Where did the nearly 10,000 more Song troops come from Qingzhou, and so many Song troops come from where Papaya Fort come from? Going back, how many more magical weapons can the Song Dynasty emerge from the sky?

This battle cannot be fought any longer.

He could understand the mood of Liang's initiating this battle. First, he wanted to avenge his country. Private revenge was a husband's revenge, national revenge was a shame for losing Suizhou. Second, he wanted to establish her authority. Third, he thought that the sky was frozen and the Song Dynasty was unprepared. Fourth, he thought that the Khitans were supporting him later.

If the Khitans really send troops, it might work. But the Khitans just made a verbal promise and might send troops. Then they would have to see the Song Dynasty defeated so that they could send troops. If they did not send troops together, the Song Dynasty could concentrate their efforts against the Western Xia.

This is the problem.

But Liang thought about the benefits, so he almost devoted the whole country to launch this battle. If he lost this time, the consequences would be unimaginable. Now it is wise to retreat immediately, at least to preserve most of the main forces. As for the losses caused by this battle, it will slowly recover from it.

But Renduoling Ding dared not say that he was killed, and many generals were heartbroken. Why? It was nothing more than Liang Yi shirking responsibility. But do you have any responsibility in this battle? How could you not have it?

Wang Zangbu made a misjudgment, but he also recognized this misjudgment, so he handed over the letter to Liang Yi and handed it on a fast horse. Maybe Song Ji's mistake was also related to this letter.

Now that there are so many troops left, Liang Yimeng cannot step down, and he will persuade him to withdraw his troops. What will Liang Yimeng think? He will definitely end up with Dora's.

Thinking of this, he didn't dare to say it anymore, so he reported the situation to Liang Yi, but he downplayed it when some of his own mistakes were critical.

Protect yourself!

…………

The sun actually came out, which showed that the weather was getting better.

But this doesn't matter. Unless there is a sudden weather, the temperature can rise to more than 5 degrees Celsius on average, so that trouble will occur on the side of the cute door Sancha. Otherwise, no matter how good the weather is in the future, it will not pose a danger to the cute door Sancha.

But everyone's atmosphere was a little depressed, and Wang Junwan shouted directly: "General Li, why did he delay for so long?"

Li Kezhong made a serious mistake in this battle and finally came out, but it came out too late. Although the Xixia people had not been able to organize a complete formation, many local battlefields were successfully gathered. Therefore, the two armies attacked each other and killed more than half an hour before defeating the Xia army. But if it were a quarter of an hour in the morning, there would not be so many people in the Xia army successfully gathered together. Moreover, they had just gotten up, sleepy and had not yet awakened their entire brains, which would be more beneficial to the Song army.

In fact, due to Li Kezhong's delay, the miraculous effect of the entire night attack on the battlefield only played a quarter of the effect in the middle, and the rest was equivalent to a head-on confrontation.

Li Kezhong said: "I have not received the order from Ming Gong."

"But you can't see or hear?"

"I'll say less to me," Wang Ju said. But he was thinking. Li Kezhong really couldn't do it. This man was very brave, so he was appreciated by Li Fugui. So after the failure of Naoebao last year, Li Fugui took revenge on Xixia. The first time he asked him to attack Lin Guang, if it weren't for Lin Guang, the Song army would have suffered another defeat. As a result, Li Fugui sent him and Zhao Yuqing to attack Jintang City for the second time, but was really defeated by the Xia people in Luohechuan. If Zhao Yuqing had not been familiar with the terrain, he would not have escaped. The third time was Han Jiang's order. Wang Wenliang failed to make a promise. It was impossible for Li Kezhong and Zhao Yuqing to blame.

Therefore, it is not enough to be brave, unless it is brave enough to Xue Rengui. But is it possible?

This was also a bloody lesson, just like Zhao State replaced Lian Po with Zhao Kuo, Yan State replaced Le Yi with cavalry, and replaced one general, and the result was completely different immediately. However, the generals and officials of Qingzhou repeatedly recommended Li Kezhong, and some people below were talking about being nepotist, and Wang Ju also heard a little. Therefore, his ears became soft and he pushed Li Kezhong to Yele Town.

Now, because of Li Kezhong, the Song army has at least nearly a thousand casualties, and has also brought some difficulties to the next plan.

But now that things have come to this, I can only find a way to save them. Wang Ju said: "Qu Zhen, Zhao Long, you will immediately lead the way and capture prisoners of war. Wang Junwan, you will lead the remaining Poche army and immediately slide along the Yanqing water to Wujiao Town. If you encounter a large number of deserters, you will immediately divide the troops and go ashore and force them to escape back to let Qu Zhen and Zhao Long arrest them, and then shout in front of Wujiao Town, but remember that you cannot really attack the Xia army."

The three generals led their troops to retreat.

"Li Kezhong, send someone to clean the battlefield immediately."

"Here."

However, Wang Ju saw some dissatisfaction and loss in his eyes.

"It really doesn't work, so I will take away the position of this man as a brigade general, disperse his army and join other brigades." Wang Juxin thought.

Don’t be afraid of making mistakes, and it’s also related to each person’s military talent. If you are afraid of making mistakes but not correcting them, you will feel uneasy. If this is the case, Wang Ju is very disliked. Just like Zhong Yan, you can fight, but you can’t expect Wang Ju to use Zhong Yan. This person is too unique. Not to mention Wang Ju, even Cai Ting may not be able to use them well.

Rendoringding's five thousand soldiers were rushing towards Wujiao Town, and Wang Junwan's soldiers were also rushing towards Wujiao Town.

I met many prisoners of war on the road, which is inevitable. Qingzhou is mainly composed of Liangmao terrain, so the flat rivers on both sides of the Yanqing River will undoubtedly become the main avenue. If you do not follow the avenue to escape to Wujiao Town, do you have to cross the Yanqing River, climb mountains and cross the country, and escape to Rouyuan Village?

However, seeing the Song army roaring, these people had to escape to the mountainous areas west, but it was not necessarily safe to escape wherever they could escape. First, Qu Zhen came over immediately behind. He fled into the deep mountains, and followed the Maling River to the Fucheng Village, Maling Town, and Fangqu Village. The troops were empty here. The three heavy villages and some garrisons were stationed only with the pitiful battalions of soldiers in Gu Yongping's hands. However, it was enough to capture these escaped prisoners of war.

So Wang Junwan didn't care. He just encountered a large group of defeated Xixia troops, which allowed the three armies to go ashore, disperse them, force them to escape back, or flee to the mountains in the south. Therefore, he quickly rushed to Wujiao Town. At this time, Renduolingding's reinforcements had not arrived yet, and when he saw the large group of Song troops sliding over the river, the entire Xia army seemed to be facing a great enemy.

In fact, it wasn't like this. Wang Junwan was just scared when he came here, so that he could give the officers and soldiers in the rear more time to capture prisoners of war.

Prisoners of war are money!

Moreover, among these prisoners of war, there were war horses that the Song Dynasty longed for.

Time passed quickly, and the five thousand reinforcements sent by Rendoringding arrived, but they did not dare to move. Then Liang Yi buried him. At this time, only he had the most sufficient troops. After hearing this, he immediately sent out ten thousand troops to Wujiao Town.

Wujiao Town is only thirty miles away from Huai'an Town, and less than thirty miles away from Rouyuan Village. However, the latter's thirty miles are a real path. Therefore, these ten thousand Xia troops are marching slowly towards Wujiao Town like snails.

Seeing that there was less than ten miles of mountain road, Wang Junwan issued an order to retreat, and even went to the shore with his might. He carried out some prisoner-catching battles. He then met with the troops of Qu Zhen and Zhao Long behind him and escorted a large number of prisoners of war back to Yele Town.

Seeing the Song army so arrogant, the Xia army was depressed due to several defeats and did not dare to pursue them, so as to avoid being caught by the Song army's trick again.

The third battle in the past two days has come to an end. Although it was the battle that Wang Ju ignored the least before the war, the actual results were equally brilliant, killing nearly 10,000 Xia soldiers. At the same time, more than 9,000 prisoners of war were captured, and with the stalemate behind, nearly 1,000 escaped prisoners of war were arrested one after another. After three battles, nearly 55,000 Xia soldiers were bitten off.

Three battles are undoubtedly three death movements.

Even Wang Ju suspected that during the battle, he might not be able to kill so many Xia troops.

And with the arrival of Yang Wenguang's reinforcements, the comparison of the forces between the two sides has increased from nearly 4 to 1 at the beginning to 6 to 10. In addition to the favorable aspects of morale and terrain, the Song army can already really launch a battle.

Wang Ju asked the prisoners of war to escort the rear. The prisoners of war from Dashun City were not able to take them out yet, but the prisoners of war from Mengmen Sancha built the ice castle. In the evening of that day, they also followed the war horses to the Papaya Castle, and then escort them from Huanzhou City to the rear.

The arrival of a large number of prisoners of war finally alleviated the difficulties of labor in the rear.

At this time, Wang Ju and Zhang Feng also learned about Mengmen Sancha. Both of them breathed a sigh of relief. The most risky place in this battle was Mengmen Sancha. But now there was no problem. They had enough weapons and seized a large amount of weapons and food from the enemy. They repaired all the ice forts. In addition, Zhou Yongqing's five thousand officers and soldiers were stationed, Mengmen Sancha was completely worry-free.

After getting the news about the cute party and Wang Ju’s concerns about Li Kezhong, Zhang Feng finally figured out the final combat plan.

After hearing the news, Wang Ju immediately rode his horse back to Qingzhou City.

Almost all the people in the city of Gyeongju came out to welcome them together.

Not only did he have the backbone, but these two cheerful victories also made the people in the city excited.

Wang Ju waved his hand and quickly entered the state yamen. The decisive battle was about to begin, and a detailed combat plan must be formulated immediately.

After a long time, Wang Jucai and Zhang Ju finished discussing.

At this time, it was approaching dusk, and Wang Ju ordered someone to bring Song Ji up.

Song Ji was so scared that his face turned pale and his calves trembled. There was not only national hatred between him and Wang Ju, but also family hatred. I don’t know if Wang Ju knew it was his own idea.

Wang Ju was very polite and said, "Don't worry, the two countries are fighting, each of them is their own rulers. Since the Yeli tribe has defected to our dynasty, they must be loyal to our dynasty. If you defect to Xixia, you must be loyal to Xixia. I don't blame you."

Song Ji's expression then calmed down, and he still said carefully: "Thank you, the prince."

"Don't use it, I'll call you here. First of all, I'll ask you a few questions. Why did you send troops to Qingzhou this time? I think there are three reasons: there are many troops, and it's unexpected. Liao Kingdom's support. I'll talk about the strength first. There are not many troops on Huanqing Road, and there are still troops left behind. Even if you include strong people, you can only use 30,000 troops, and there are still some Murong unruly. But are we really few troops? Han Gong and Guo Gong are in charge of Yanzhou, and Han Gong is the first in Shaanxi Road to be responsible for military affairs.

The official, Mr. Cai was in charge of Weizhou, so I should not talk about his relationship with me. So Mr. Cai sent 10,000 troops to support him, and Mr. Han also sent 10,000 troops to support him. This was another 20,000 troops. Also, I was in charge of Zheng Baiqu, one for water conservancy, and the other was to establish a powerful Poche army in Anza. This time I brought nearly 80 battalions of Poches, and some Poches were put into the front line. Not only did 30,000 troops, but more than 90,000 troops. It was also in a good position. Is this force still less?”

No wonder Song Ji thought to himself.

I have been calculating the strength of the Song Dynasty, but no matter how I calculate it, it is wrong. It turns out that the error is nearly 40,000 Poches.

But Song Ji fell into the pit. In fact, Wang Ju invested more than 90,000 troops this time. With the support of the three Yongxing Army, including strong men, nearly 120,000 troops were reached. But here Wang Ju intends to turn the Poche Army of the 86th Battalion fully organized into the 80th Battalion, and deliberately omits the officers and soldiers of the 37th Battalion supported by Yongxing Army. The error was made by more than 20,000 people.

This error can be fatal in the future.

Moreover, Wang Ju said that more than 90,000 troops were deployed, which was also in line with the figures obtained after the investigation by the Xixia people.
To be continued...
