Back to the Song Dynasty as a tyrant

For a while, the senior executives of the Jin Army were quite depressed.

Under the garrison of the artillery of the Song Army, the Hejian City was like a copper wall and an iron wall. The cavalry could not enter, and even the infantry and goose carts were defeated.

Jin Wushu has a hot temper by nature, but he restrained himself a lot due to his political career the day after tomorrow. Now that the situation is not going well, it is obvious that he can no longer restrain himself.

Holding a big knife weighing more than ten catties, he hacked indiscriminately in the camp. Tables, tea tables, and wooden frames were all messed up by him, and the ground was in a mess.

The people standing around had cold sweat on their foreheads, fearing that His Royal Highness Wei Wang would slash him on the neck.

Yelubo, who participated in the infantry siege, didn't dare to show his anger. He stood aside, and his back was already soaked in cold sweat.

"Your Highness, I have a message."

At this time, it was Han Enterprise who stood up and spoke first.

"Han Xianggong, please tell me." Wu Shu stopped his saber, and his tone was rather cold.

"Now we should immediately mobilize [-] elites to the south of the city to fill up the trenches in the south of the city overnight." Han Qixian said.

The faces of the people around him changed, they were blocked twice, and they had to run to the south of the city overnight and hit the wall again?

Shi Jian came out and said, "That's not right! There must be Song Army artillery in the south of the city. The officials feel that the most urgent task now is to abandon Hejian, go south overnight, cross the North Yellow River, and quickly enter the Song people's Hebei East Road and Jingdong East Road. Our army's cavalry was flexible in tactics and spread out the battle line, instead of being trapped to death in the river by the Song army."

"Your Highness, I feel that Shi Shilang's words are very true."

Another person stood up, it was Liu E.

"The people of Song obviously want us to stay in Hejian. Maybe other places have secretly transferred troops. It's better to go south immediately, enter the hinterland of Song, and snatch more cities!"

"Your Highness, you must never go south." Cao Wangzhi, the deputy privy envoy, objected, "Once we go south, our army will quickly disperse. If the Song people block all the main roads in the north, as time goes by, our army will be slowed down by the Song people in the south." Slow encirclement, the morale of the army cannot last too long, this is an obvious dead end!"

After he finished speaking, he didn't forget to add: "I'm afraid Liu Shilang has another purpose when he says he wants to go south!"

Liu E was startled when he heard the words, and glared at Cao Wangzhi: "You are talking nonsense!"

Cao Wangzhi continued: "Isn't it because you want to go south so that you can contact Song people?"

"Your Highness, he slandered the lower officials!" Liu E pointed at Cao Wangzhi and cursed.

People like Cao Wangzhi were originally officials of the Song Dynasty. After the first battle between Song and Jin, they defected to the Kingdom of Jin and have been working for the Kingdom of Jin.

Many of Jin Wushu's new policies over the years, including local management, have involved officials like Cao Wangzhi.

It can be understood that the Kingdom of Jin is very powerful at the level of military organization, but lacks experience in governing the country and lacks a mature imperial bureaucracy.

It was the Han Chinese in the Kingdom of Jin who built these things single-handedly.

But the Han people in the Kingdom of Jin are different from the Han people.

Cao Wangzhi was from the Song Dynasty before, and he was also an official of the Song Dynasty. Let him go south?

That is absolutely impossible.

"Your Highness, going south is definitely a dead end!" Cao Wangzhi continued, "Han Xianggong is right. Going to the south of the city is the best choice now. Before I leave the official, I will listen to Yelubo's report on military affairs. Although our infantry was attacked by the Song army in the east of the city Retreat, but from the actual situation, the firepower of the Song people in the east of the city, more accurately, it should be artillery, and the number is not as sufficient as that in the north of the city, which shows that the number of artillery of the Song people has reached its limit."

When Jin Wushu heard the words, his gaze was fixed on Yelubo immediately.

Yelubo trembled all over, and quickly said: "It is true that a small part of the army was not bombarded by the Song army's artillery."

Wu Shu looked at Han Qixian again, and Han Qixian said: "We can't predict how much gunpowder the Song people have. There may be a lot, and it may have bottomed out. However, the number of artillery may not keep up."

"Cannon is easier to get than gunpowder." Liu E retorted, "Why did Mr. Han say that the number of cannons is insufficient?"

"There is a limit to the logistics capacity." Han Qixian said, "It stands to reason that if the artillery does not fire a single shot, it will stop, but the Song people's artillery can continuously attack our army, which shows that the Song people adopted artillery. Cross-fire, and at a fixed location, ensure sufficient artillery, and arrange a formation that can ensure a very short interval between the artillery, and the distance between the artillery and the artillery is the basis, which inevitably cannot guarantee the artillery.

Han Qixian pointed out Zhao Ning's tactics in one word, which made Jin Wushu suddenly understand.

Jin Wushu said without hesitation: "Immediately mobilize [-] troops to the south of the city! Attack overnight!"

"Do you want to do it at night?" Liu E hesitated, "I'm afraid at night..."

"This is an order!"

Everyone's whole body was shocked, and they immediately regained their spirits.

Wu Shu said: "Han Xianggong, go to the south of the city to supervise the battle yourself!"

"Yes!"

After dark, everything in Hejian City was as usual, but after all, the city was besieged by the enemy, and the atmosphere in the south was a bit heavy.

Zhao Ning had just finished dinner, and he confessed to Zhang Jun: "Jin Wushu will definitely not let it go, and if the East City Gate is taken back, he will definitely send troops to the South City overnight. It is not a time when the night is not dark, but two At the most critical moment of the army, he will definitely use all means, and the huge amount of defense at night cannot be ignored."

Zhang Bofen said: "Your Majesty, let me go and garrison in Nancheng."

"The real battle has not yet begun, you should cultivate more, and leave the matter of defending the city to the subordinates."

It is said that the Song Army's scouts were within a dozen miles outside the South City, spying on the Jin Army's whereabouts overnight, and the Battle of Hejian seemed to be in a stalemate.

At least the Jin army, which was extremely strong, suffered two setbacks, while the Song army still sat firmly in Hejian.

However, the key impact of the entire war was not limited to Hejian.

On the evening of the 22nd, when Jin Wushu was about to transfer troops to the south of Hejian City, Wanyan Xiyin's department suddenly appeared outside Bazhou City.

Wanyan Xiyin immediately launched a powerful offensive against Bazhou. At this time, there were only [-] regular troops in Bazhou city, and the rest had all followed Yue Fei to the south.

However, the number of Wanyan Xiyin's regular army exceeded [-]. If it hadn't been for the confrontation with Zhang Xian in Zhuozhou, Wanyan Xiyin's regular army would have at least [-] troops.

Wanyan Xiyin, who had more than twice the strength of Yue Yun, could not charge in person like Yue Yun, and his command at the tactical level was not inferior to Yue Yun in the slightest.

After dark, Wanyan Xiyin still did not stop attacking Bazhou, and launched an intensive bombardment of Bazhou city gate with artillery.

If Bazhou falls at this time, Wanyan Xiyin can immediately send troops to raid Yue Fei's rear.

Chapter 1458 At any cost! (Second more)

Outside the city gate in the west of Bazhou City, a group of soldiers of the Golden Army had already died. Flames were burning on the top of the city, and dense rockets were nailed to the tower.

The Song Army at the head of the city also responded to the Jin Army's attack.

However, under the artillery of the golden men, the city gate was quickly blasted open, and the soldiers of the Jin army in iron armor rushed towards the gate of the city, pushing the goose cart.

After arriving at the gate of the city, they were immediately blocked by the Song army. The two sides first used long-range weapons such as bows and crossbows to shoot at the gate of the city for a while, and then began to charge.

The flames flickered on and off, blunt knives slashed on the iron armor, and beast-like roars resounded through the gate of the city.

In the city, infantrymen from the Song army kept coming, and heavy infantry from the Jin army kept pushing over at the gate of the city.

Not long after, the gate of the city was already full of corpses.

But Jin Jun didn't have any intention of giving up, they rushed towards them like tireless wolves.

I don't know how long the battle lasted, but the Jin army used the advantage of numbers to forcefully push into the city, and the battle line reached the street inside the city gate.

At this time, a large amount of fierce fire oil suddenly poured down from the tower, drenching the golden army below all over, and then a dozen torches were thrown down, and the flames below swam away quickly and ran around, turning into a sea of ​​flames.

The Song army kept retreating, and the Jin army in front uttered the most mournful wailing in the world. They shouted frantically, struggled everywhere, and lay down and rolled on the ground.

But the flames burned quickly, and more and more.

Seeing this, the Jin army who rushed to the bottom of the city gate finally backed away in fear.

Not long after, Jin Jun withdrew in embarrassment.

The Song army temporarily defended the first siege.

However, the Wanyan Xiyin that Yue Yun met was a more difficult character in Jin Wushu. Zhang Xian was always suppressed and beaten in his hands. Since he arrived in Bazhou so quickly, how could he be so angry because of his first setback? Stop attacking?

After only one incense stick, the Jin army started its second attack.

The most powerful part of the Jinjun lies in its tenacity.

In the early years, Wanyan Agu fought to destroy the Liao army, with a very small number of people, but he fought tough battles with the Liao army, and grew rapidly along the way.

For example, Wanyan Loushi, the cavalry corps in the great battle, cut back and forth with nine long lines, just like a tireless iron man.

Wanyan Xiyin was the first generation general of the Jin Kingdom, and also an extremely outstanding member of the first generation.

His soldiers and horses may not be as good as Jinwushu, but his combat toughness may not be inferior to the main force of Jinwushu.

The Jin army quickly adopted the bombardment of the North City Gate, intending to use its superior force to open a two-line battlefield to suppress the Song army.

In less than half an hour, the gate of Beicheng was also blasted open by Jin Ren with artillery.

Yue Yun personally led the people to the North City Gate.

The two sides fought at the gates of the two cities, and it was not until midnight that the Jin army retreated one after another.

At this time, the two city gates had already been killed to the point that they were almost blocked by corpses.

In the middle of the night, the news that Bazhou was attacked by a large number of Jin troops was sent to Yue Fei's camp. After hearing about it, Yue Fei immediately guessed that this Jin army might be Wanyan Xiyin's tribe who came from Zhuozhou.

Sure enough, Yue Fei then received a military report from Zhang Xian that the main force of the Zhuozhou Golden Army had withdrawn.

Zhang Xian had already set off, following Wanyan Xiyin.

After Yue Fei thought for a while, he began to write a letter to Zhang Xian, ordering him to quickly go north to take Youzhou, without chasing Yan Xiyin's troops.

One of the fundamental reasons for Yue Fei to make such a decision is not only to completely cut off the retreat of Jin Wushu, but also to ensure that Youzhou must return to the hands of Song Dynasty after the war.

Can Youzhou be taken away by others?

What Yue Fei was worried about was that Wanyan Liang, who was heading south, would arrive in Youzhou and take the opportunity to occupy Youzhou.

At that time, the Song Army who had just fought against Jin Wushu was very exhausted. If Wan Yanliang insisted on accepting Youzhou, the Song Army might have to pay the price.

Taking Youzhou now is like finding something out of a pocket, why not?

As for Bazhou's defense line, Yue Fei also returned to Yue Yun, telling him to stick to Bazhou and hold back Wanyan Xiyin.

The decisive battle is imminent, as long as Wanyan Xiyin cannot go south and enter the Hejian battlefield, the goal will be achieved.

In the early morning of the 23rd, the Jin army outside Bazhou City was temporarily silent, but the Song army in the north of Hejian moved overnight.

In view of Wanyan Xiyin's arrival, Yue Fei had a premonition that the situation was more urgent, and usually there was no fighting at night, but Yue Fei forcibly brought it forward.

He ordered the forward infantry to hold torches to illuminate the surroundings, and launched another attack on the Jin army camp in front.

Similarly, in order to prevent the Song army, the Jin army dug a horse trap around the camp and set up horse rejection posts.

The Song Army fought the Jin Army several times in this area yesterday.

Wan Yanheng was woken up in his sleep, and when he learned that the Song army was attacking, he cursed angrily: "Are these Song dogs crazy! What kind of battle are you fighting in the middle of the night!"

While cursing, he put on his clothes and armor, and went out.

When they got outside, the scouts reported the information they had just spied one by one.

Wan Yanheng raised his head and saw the flames outside, he couldn't help laughing and said: "I know how brave Yue Fei is. He attacked at night and exposed everything to our army. At this time, the Song army has become a living target. Immediately organize crossbowmen and return There are artillerymen!"

Jinying soon started to beat drums.

The Song Army on the front line began to quickly bury the sinking pit, and the artillery battalion followed closely behind the forward.

Another sergeant with great strength lined up alone.

Even so, there are still many people who accidentally fell into the horse pit.

This is a helpless thing, advancing at night, the biggest weakness is poor vision.

But this is also an impossible thing.

Zhao Guan's family in Hejian messed up the situation as it is now, making each party very urgent.

Jin Wushu attacked the city overnight, he didn't have time.

Wanyan Xiyin attacked the city overnight, so he had to do the same.

Up to now, Yue Fei attacked the Jin army's rear army overnight, so he must do so.

It seems that everyone's time is compressed by the limit.

The overall rhythm of the battlefield was compressed to the extreme.

It's useless to not fight at night, or to find other ways to get stuck in a horse pit and refuse to pile up horse piles.

Time must be raced now!

Even if you use people to fill it in wave after wave, you must push it down!

Just like now Wanyan Xiyin is using people to fill in Bazhou, why isn't Jin Wushu using people to fill in Hejian?

Whoever is half a step faster will have a huge advantage in tactical operations.

Seeing that the Jin army's war drums had been raised, Yue Fei immediately ordered his side to beat the drums to cheer.

Not long after, the arrows of the Jin army rushed out of the camp and pressed towards the Song army holding the torch.
