Chapter 593: Joint Operations (II)


Li Qing analyzed the current situation of both the Song and Xia armies, although the Xia army has a large number of troops on the front line, the strength can reach 700,000, but they are very scattered, it will take time to assemble them all, and it is impossible for the Song army to stand still, although the Song army does not have many elite troops, but the second-line troops have it, and batches of follow-up reinforcements of the Song army are gathering and going to the front line to prepare for the follow-up war.

"That's how we are now."

Li Qing said at the end; "However, at present, the follow-up troops of the Song army are being assembled, mainly in the Daimyo's Mansion, and according to the report, there is also a group of Song troops who are deploying in Julu; What we have to discuss next is how to play this joint operation."

Li Bingchang first said: "I mean, we should first concentrate our superior forces to eat Zhang Miao's army, first of all, Zhang Miao's army, the 300,000 army, is the elite force of the Song army, and secondly, Zhang Miao's army is too big a threat to us, we can threaten Zhendingfu in the north, and we can threaten the flank of the Jizhou army in the east; Moreover, once our army defeated Zhang Miao's army, it could go south from Zhaozhou along the Taihang Mountains through Xingzhou, Cizhou, Xiangzhou, and Weizhou to directly threaten Bianliang, the former capital of the Song Dynasty. ” "Okay, then destroy Zhang Miao's army first."

Li Qing finally made a decision and said: "The annihilation of Zhang Miao's army this time is under the unified command of the eldest brother, and my Jizhou army will send 200,000 troops to cooperate, commanded by General Zhu Xu; At the same time, the fourth brother waited for the opportunity to attack the Song army guarded by the giant deer; The king led the rest of the 200,000 troops to attack Texas."

After Li Qing finished speaking, Li Bingchang said: "This king will transfer all the main forces of the 200,000 Bingzhou Army to attack Zhaozhou, so that we will have 400,000 troops in Zhaozhou, and we will surpass the Song army in terms of combat strength and strength, and our army will win this battle." ” For Li Qing, his battle plan basically did not change, but he changed the commander of the Right Route Army and the Western Route Army, and increased a part of the 200,000 troops of the Right Route Army.

A few days later, Li Xiaoren, the king of Chu, sent the recital of Li Bingchang, the king of Jin, and Li Qing, the king of Yan, to Li Liangzuo and said: "Your Majesty, this is the recital of the king of Jin and the king of Yan asking for a joint operation, please read it." ” "When did these two boys get their heads open?"

Li Liangzuo smiled; "That's right."

"Your Majesty, once the Bingzhou Legion and the Jizhou Legion are combined, I am afraid that the battle on the northern front will be smoother, and Yiweichen will also let the Yizhou Legion and the Yongzhou Legion join forces to fight together, which will be more conducive to fighting against the Song Dynasty."

Li Xiaoren said to Li Liangzuo.

"We don't have to worry about this matter, let them do it themselves," Li Liangzuo said; "By the way, what are you busy with during this time?"

"That kid doesn't become a whole kid who fights cocks and walks dogs all day long."

Li Xiaoren hated that iron could not be made of steel.

Li Liangzuo said to Xiao Fuzi: "Fuzi, send someone to sneak this kid over to me." ” "Obey" After Xiaofuzi left, Li Liangzuo said to Li Xiaoren: "It's not okay to let this kid go on like this, how can the prince of Chu in my dignified Great Xia Empire be a gentleman I plan to let this kid go to the army to experience and experience, what does the imperial brother think?"

"Can this kid be that material?"

said Li Xiaoren.

"You'll find out if you try it."

Li Liangzuo said with a smile; "I know that the imperial brother feels sorry for his son, and the imperial brother is relieved that I will not let him go to the battlefield now, this is not the 100,000 government soldiers gathered from the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate is about to arrive, this army must have a commander, this 100,000 government soldiers and cavalry are stationed in the Lantian camp, I plan to appoint Hu Er as the commander of this army, what does this kid have to do, I don't know if there is still you as a father."

"As soon as you come up, you will lead an army of 100,000, isn't this a little too much."

Li Xiaoren said in surprise.

"I plan to be the emperor, you also know how many people I can trust in this world, these royal brothers should also be clear, you look at the generals in this army, they all know that they are basically from my royal family, and in the future, as long as these royal children can become talents, they will be divided, this is the foundation of my Great Xia Empire's rule over the world" Li Liangzuo said to Li Xiaoren.

A month later, the 200,000 troops of the Bingzhou Army had been assembled in Pingding, and the 200,000 troops commanded by Zhu Xu had also been assembled in Shenzhou, and the two armies had formed a trend of east-west flanking against Zhaozhou; At this time, Zhang Miao, who was stationed in Gaoyi, had already received the news that the Xia army was attacked from both sides, and Zhang Miao was nervous about this, the 300,000 troops in Zhang Miao's hands were the most elite troops of the Song army, and if they were lost here, the blow to the Song army would be too great.

"Report, report, report to the general, an urgent report from the prince."

A herald hurried in and said.

After Zhang Miao received the letter, he opened it and read: "Zhang Miao's nephew Qi: Now that the Xia army is strong, this king has received a report, the Xia army and the Jizhou army have fought together, and the nephew cannot fight hard with the Xia army to preserve the strength, and the king has hoarded a large number of grain and grass troops in Julu, and sent an army to garrison, and the nephew can lead the army to retreat to Julu after seeing this letter."

After Zhang Miao saw this letter, he felt much better; Since Zhao Yan has agreed to evacuate, it is much easier to say, but Zhang Miao is somewhat unwilling to evacuate like this, and the rash withdrawal of troops is too big a blow to morale.

Accompanied by the sound of war drums of "knock, knock, knock", the Song generals gathered in Zhang Miao's Chinese army tent; Zhang Miao said to everyone: "Now the Xia army has formed a two-sided attack on us, and the troops are more than us, in order to preserve the strength of our army, the general decided to evacuate from Zhaozhou after consulting the prince, tomorrow all the foot soldiers will retreat to Julu, and the general will personally lead 30,000 iron cavalry to retreat." ” "Obey the general's orders," the generals said.

In the early morning of the next day, the Song army began to retreat to Julu, and Li Bingchang and Zhu Xu, who got the news, of course, could not watch the Song army evacuate to Julu, so they immediately sent troops to Zhaozhou, and at this time Zhang Miao led 30,000 Song army iron cavalry to take the initiative to attack in order to delay the pursuit of the Xia cavalry.

The Song army took the attack and harassment war is actually very simple, the Song army every hundred people are a team, attack the Xia army in the open place, kill two people and run, the Xia army cavalry will be besieged by several Song army cavalry once they pursue, the Xia army sends fewer soldiers and is easy to be eaten, and the more soldiers sent affect the speed of the march, and every night the Song army will beat the drum outside the summer army camp to challenge, the disturbed Xia army can not have a good rest at night, every day with two black eyes like a panda.

In this way, the Xia army stopped and finally arrived in Zhaozhou, after the Xia army successfully occupied Zhaozhou, Zhang Miao led the cavalry of the Song army to evacuate, everything that could be taken away has been taken away, and everything that can not be taken away has been burned.
