Chapter 673: Pursuit (I)


In the middle of the night, in Julu City, a Song army reported to Zhang Miaoyu: "General, our army lost no less than 50,000 in today's battle, and the defense of the Xia army is too strong, such a high-intensity attack, the brothers can't hold it for a long time."

"We can't hold it, the Xia army can't hold it even more, tomorrow the army will continue to attack, and we must take the Xia army camp within one day.

On the other hand, in the camp of the Xia army, the losses of the Xia army were not small, and the loss of troops was nearly 20,000, which shows how tragic the battle during the day today is, but this is just the beginning for both the Song army and the Xia army, and the real war is still to come "Get out of the way of this king," Li Bingchang broke into the big tent of the Chinese army.

"His Royal Highness the King of Jin."

Zhu Xu got up from the handsome chair and saluted Li Bingchang.

"General Zhu, how is the battle today?"

"The first wave of the Song army's attack has been thwarted, and the corpses of the Song army are already placed outside the camp, and our army has lost nearly 20,000 people."

"Twenty thousand soldiers."

Li Bingchang said with some resentment: "This is the elite of my Xia Army, so you can be buried easily." ” "Your Highness, pay attention to your wording."

Zhu Xu said strongly; "Although we have lost 20,000 soldiers, we have lost the value because we have defended this large battalion; My Highness, do you know what the loss of our big camp means for the entire northern war situation Once we give up the big camp, or the big camp is lost, no one will be able to stop the action of the Song army, the Song army has a large number of troops, and it is completely possible to go north or east, now we have no troops in the north, once the Song army occupies Hejian, Zhending and other places, it means that our hundreds of thousands of troops will be homeless, once such a thing happens, how dangerous the war situation is, I think Your Highness should know better than me; I can understand His Highness's desire to preserve the strength of our army, but it is not always necessary to preserve strength, and when it is time to fight, we must fight; If His Highness is willing to camp with the last general, the last general is welcome, but if His Highness still wants to break through, then please go back and rest."

"Then tell this king about your next step," Li Bingchang asked.

"Our army only needs to hold on to tomorrow day, our reinforcements should arrive, and when the time comes, His Highness will lead a group of soldiers and horses to stay and defend the city, and the last general will lead a group of men and horses out of the camp to meet the army, and the Song army will be defeated by attacking from both sides."

"Okay, just do as you say" The next day, the Song army continued to attack the city, but it was still unable to attack for a long time, and at this time Zhang Miao received a report from the sentry cavalry: "General Yu, a large number of Xia army iron cavalry were found in the east, and it is estimated that there are no less than 100,000 troops. ” Zhang Miao frowned and said, "It's not good, the reinforcements of the Xia army have arrived, and the herald ordered the army to evacuate according to the original plan." ” "Yes, follow the general's orders" When the Xia army's reinforcements were about to arrive, Zhang Miao led the Song army to evacuate and burned Julu City with a fire; The reason why Zhang Miao chose to evacuate is actually a wise choice, if Zhang Miao chooses to face the Xia army, it is very likely that he will be attacked by the Xia army from both sides.

Leading the army of 100,000 is An Qinggui and Liang Yongneng, in fact, the troops under the command of the two of them are less than 100,000 at all, in fact, there are less than 80,000 people, when An Qinggui and Liang Yongneng led the army to the camp, the Song army had already withdrawn; The two immediately came to the big account of the Chinese army to meet Li Bingchang, the king of Jin, and with his own army, Li Bingchang was much tougher.

Li Bingchang said to Zhu Xu: "General Zhu, now that the Song army has withdrawn, it is a good time for our army to pursue, General Zhu and this king will send troops to pursue the Song army."

"The prince must not."

Zhu Xu objected: "Although the Song army retreated, it retreated without chaos; Moreover, one of our army is a long-term soldier, and the other is a long-distance attack The army has long been exhausted, and the combat strength of the army is worrying, please suspend the pursuit and let the Song soldiers rest first. ” "Since General Zhu is unwilling, then King Ben will not be reluctant."

Li Bingchang ordered: "An Qinggui and Liang Yongneng led the army to pursue the Song army with this king. ” An Qinggui stopped Li Bingchang and said: "Lord Wang, what General Zhu said makes sense, Lord Wang should postpone the pursuit."

"Since that's the case, then you can stay with him, Liang Yongneng, are you willing to go to this king," Li Bingchang said angrily.

"The last will go."

"Okay, order me and the soldiers of the state legion to go out with this king."

"The Last General Commands" Looking at the army in the distance, Zhu Xu sighed and said: "Hey, King Jin is going here, I'm afraid there will be fewer victories and more defeats, let's be ready to respond."

"How does General Zhu plan to respond," Liang Yongneng asked.

"Leaving soldiers and horses to guard the camp, a group of soldiers and horses followed the army of the King of Jin; Once surrounded by the Song army, he immediately rushed in to save people.

Zhu Xu said.

"General Zhu, let me go this time," An Qinggui said.

"Okay, but I can only give you 30,000 troops, and now my troops are very tight."

"Okay, 30,000 is 30,000" "General An, remember, don't get too close to King Jin's army, otherwise you will probably be wrapped in dumplings together."

Zhu Xu told An Qinggui to say.

"The last general understands, please rest assured" Besides, although Zhang Miao led the army to evacuate, it was not that he did not make any preparations; Most of the Song army evacuated the palace of the most elite Song army led by Zhang Miaoqin and laid an ambush; In fact, Zhang Miao's plan is very simple, if Xia Jun can come, then beat him, if he can't come, it's even better.

But the Xia army came after all, Li Bingchang, the king of Jin, led 80,000 Jingzhou soldiers to pursue the Song army, and soon entered Zhang Miao's ambush circle, and the Song army ambushed on both sides suddenly killed, and Li Bingchang was caught off guard, the reason why the cavalry is superior to the foot soldiers is largely because of the cavalry's sprint, but when the cavalry loses the ability to sprint, it is difficult to say; The current situation is that the cavalry of the Xia army has lost the ability to charge.

The two armies instantly fell into a melee, because the strength of the Xia army was very long, so the battle line of the two armies was also very long, which was not conducive to unified command and operation at all; The Song army commanded by Zhang Miao attacked very fiercely according to the predetermined plan, and although the Xia army tried desperately to kill the enemy, it suffered heavy losses.

"Order the withdrawal of troops, withdraw troops," Li Bingchang shouted heartbreakingly.

"Lord Wang, hurry up, we can't move now, the army is trapped inside, and the last general will protect you to leave first."

Liang Yongneng came to Li Bingchang's side and said.

"No, I don't withdraw; The army cannot be withdrawn, and the king will not leave.

Li Bingchang said firmly.

About half an hour after the two armies fought, An Qinggui led 30,000 iron cavalry to reinforce, An Qinggui opened a gap in the encirclement of the Song army in the north, and responded to the evacuation of the besieged Xia army, but the Xia army wanted to evacuate It was not so simple, the Song army immediately surrounded An Qinggui, An Qinggui commanded the army to meet the enemy, and let the surrounded Xia army evacuate, and the remnants of the Xia army began to evacuate under the command of An Qinggui.

The Xia army was defeated in this battle, and the defeat was very miserable, and the main problem in this battle was in the command, but this was not the end, it was only the beginning.
