Chapter 965 Chapter [-] Overlook
From ancient times to the present, based on the objective attributes of human beings, in order to pursue a better life, people have set various rules for themselves.

From customs, to laws, to all kinds of self-evident basic morality, people set limits for themselves, delimiting boundaries that should not be easily crossed.It can be said that these boundaries protect the foundation of people's lives. They prevent people with weak individuals from being easily damaged, and can properly use the power of each weak individual to gather sand into a tower, and finally create a strong and Brilliant country and civilization.

From this onwards, the rules created by human beings will gradually lose their scope of application, and among large groups such as countries, the nature of the law of the jungle begins to show its fangs more clearly.It will remind us of the most essential truth of this world, and it will clearly tell us that the basis of mutual respect between people lies in only two essential laws:
First, people can use each other.

Second, there is mutual deterrence between people.

When a certain rule between the two models is out of balance to a certain extent, all man-made rules, all the truth, goodness and beauty that seem to be justifiable, may break away at any time and disappear.war, from this.

That is the real expression of omnipotence among human societies.All customs and morals cannot prevent it from running in. Everything permitted by physical rules may happen in front of us. It widens the gap between people to the scale of emperors and animals, and makes countless people displaced from their wives. The ion disperses, making people realize that the world can be a more terrifying place than hell.

But it also exhausts people's imagination in the other direction. It forces people who want to survive to keep moving forward. It reminds people that all beauty is not given by God but created and defended by people. It reminds people of self-improvement. Necessarily, at some point, it will also push the old age of the world.

The first year of Wu Zhenxing and the 15th year of Jin Tianhui have been rotated for dozens of years in the war.

There have been wars that have determined the rise and fall of the world and the trend of the historical tide. In the past few decades, these wars have determined the golden man to become the most dazzling character on the world stage, and it has also promoted history. The wheels of the world have crushed the future of countless people.

At the end of February, such a war was about to break out at a place called Wangyuan Bridge on the front line of Zizhou.At this time, the first battle between the Jinguo West Route Army and the Huaxia Army in the southwest had been going on for four months. People realized that such a node would appear, and it would definitely appear and then mark a temporary punctuation for everything.

It's just that when it appears, the whole process of the battle is so surprising.

It is true that at the macro level, the overall situation of the entire Southwest Battle during the Battle of Wangyuan Bridge was full of grand and bloody pictures. Everyone was doing their best to fight for the chance to win that line, but when the whole battle came to an end, people Only to find that all this is so simple and smooth, even so simple that it makes people feel weird.

At the surface level of combat, this war didn't even have any miraculous happenings.At first glance, it looked as if two armies had moved straight to the other side after a brief maneuver, and one of them rushed towards the other with all their might, fighting until the end of the battle.Many people didn't even react at all, so that they were stunned and breathless...

Of course, within the entire war, there are naturally more intricate causes and effects. To see these clearly, we need to cast a macroscopic perspective on the entire battlefield on February 23, the turning point.

Taking February 23rd of this year in the southwest as the node, in the vast mountains and plains more than [-] miles in front of Zizhou, the Jin army troops participating in the southern expedition have essentially been divided into five groups. .

At this time, the Jin army was on the front line, with about 15 main forces among the five main forces. Among them, the southernmost one was the revenge army led by Wanyan Xiebao with [-] Yanshan Guards as the main body. Ci Bushi led more than ten thousand troops directly under him. Although they were slightly behind, after two months passed, this army gradually sent thousands of horses from the rear, at most making up for transportation when the mountain roads were rough. , but as long as they reach the flat terrain near Zizhou, they can once again exert their greatest destructive power.

Echoing Yanshanwei, he has always been walking in the middle, pulling away from the speed army with steady steps. The core of his army is more than [-] people, but the scouts and active forces around him have drawn the most.The Jurchen general who broke through Huangming County looked a bit brutal and reckless on the battlefield, and did not put human life in his eyes, but the whole method of using soldiers was actually the most stable, and it was the most difficult for the Huaxia Army who liked to fish in troubled waters.

The Dalai and Saba armies descended from Yuyu Creek were the largest army group in parallel. Due to the large number of troops - the whole group had more than [-] people - their pace was a bit bloated.After the first month, Wanyan Zonghan, the coach of the Western Expedition who once appeared in Yuyuxi disappeared, and some Huaxia Army staff guessed that he was in this army with Wanyan Saba, the right-hand man he was most accustomed to using.

Of course, there are also some staff members who think that Zong Han may be sitting in the center of the pulling out quick formation.This conjecture proved to be correct after the fact.

A little further to the northwest, there are still about [-] Han troops, which are interspersed towards the borderline of the battlefield. Soon after the troops passed the front line of Yuyuxi and Huangming County, the Jin Guo troops finally completed the Central Plains and Jiangnan. The stripping of the Han army.Or rout on the battlefield, or send to the sideline positions that are not important to focus on advancing.

Today, this army of about [-] is led by the Han general Li Rulai.The Jurchens don't have high expectations for them, as long as they can attract the attention of the Huaxia Army to a certain extent, disperse the troops of the Huaxia Army and don't retreat to the main battlefield to make trouble.

The war lasted for four months, and the main force that Jurchen could send to the front line was about 12. With the addition of the wounded and left behind, the total strength of the troops might be improved a lot, but the strength of the rear was already very difficult. Pushed forward.

On the other hand, the Huaxia Army, at the beginning of its development, was the main force of more than 7000 people in four divisions. Later, about 15 recruits were added. By the end of February, the remaining number of the first division was about [-]. , the second division experienced the defeat of Huangming County, and later added some wounded soldiers. By the end of February, there were more than [-] people left. He Zhicheng, commander of the upper army, directly subordinated [-] active forces such as special brigades and cadre regiments. Those on the front lines of Zongxi and Leigang who participated in blocking the opponent's [-] troops were actually more than [-] people.

Watermelon suppressed the bandits in the rear, and led a special operations force, which was actually not many. After entering February, Ning Yi finally pulled out the manpower he had prepared.The 6000 people in his hands include the garrison regiment, bandit suppression troops, some special operators who participated in front-line operations, and a small number of technical soldiers.

More than [-] people assembled on the front line were not actually concentrated.Relying on the rugged roads in the mountains in front of Zongxi and Leigang, and the characteristics that the large corps could not develop, a large number of troops were released and dispersed to fight.

In the early morning of February 23, several Jurchen troops had already launched a large-scale interspersed raid. After the Huaxia Army reacted, they immediately assembled about 6000 troops. Three groups of [-], [-], and [-] people fought against the weak forces under the command of Xiebao, Balisu, and Saba. The battle started in the mountains from noon.

The strength of the Huaxia Army continued to mobilize afterwards.

Ning Yi started from Zizhou, and the Jurchen chose a time point that "coincided".But following his move, February 23 had a completely different meaning to the entire southwest battle situation.

Everyone can know that the battle situation has reached a very critical node.But not many people can understand Ning Yi's motive for making this choice.

For the Jurchens, when they entered the Jiange, the main force was 20 troops, but now there are only 12 at the front line, and the available Han troops are almost exhausted. Historically speaking, this is an extremely embarrassing scene.But war does not follow a simple exchange ratio. It takes tens of thousands of people to consume the golden soldiers in this way. The Huaxia Army is under greater pressure. When the force gradually decreases, it will collapse at a certain moment, and it is more likely to be today. After patching together, only [-] Huaxia Army remained.

Of course, Jurchen understands a part of the purpose of the Huaxia Army taking the initiative to attack the mountains and muddy the water.The defense of the city needs to be exhausted until the attacker gives up. In the field of sports operations, you can choose to attack the leader of the opponent. For example, in the most complex mountainous terrain here, you can attack Zonghan by surprise, or pull out the speed, Saba, and oblique. Guarantee... As long as you defeat a main force, you can obtain results that cannot be easily won in defending the city, and even cause the opponent's early defeat.

In order to deal with this possibility, Zong Han even chose the most cautious attitude, unwilling to let the Huaxia Army know where he is.At the same time, his eldest son Wanyan She also did not appear on the front line.

The only bait that was really released was Wanyan Xiebao. Zong Han's son was known for his recklessness in the outside world, but he was actually delicate in his heart. The revenge army he led, with Yanshanwei as the main body, was second only to the entire golden army. Tu Shanwei's strong army, even if Lou Shi died for many years, the army that has been trained under the purpose of Xue Shao was originally the core force of the Jurchen attacking the southwest.

If the Huaxia Army wants to beheaded, the oblique protection is the best goal, but to behead the oblique protection, it is necessary to take their lives seriously.

In the past month or so, the Jurchen has gone through extremely difficult times and suffered great losses, but on the whole, there have been no fatal mistakes.In theory, once they crossed Leigang and Zongxi, the Huaxia Army would have to turn around and return to Zizhou to fight a reluctant defense of the city.At that time, a large number of troops with low combat effectiveness, such as the Han army, the Jurchen will be able to let them drive forward and destroy the rear of the Huaxia army as much as possible on the Chengdu Plain.

This will make the Huaxia Army very uncomfortable, but the other party must choose this way - of course, Zong Han and others also predicted another possibility of crossing the Leigang and Zongxi line at one time, that is, Ning Yi realized that the trapped Zizhou was just sitting there waiting to die. So the strong man broke his wrist and gave up the Chengdu Plain, and turned back to the Liangshan Mountains to continue to be his king of the mountain.That was also a way for the battle of the Southwest to come to an end.

No one expected that Ning Yi would come out.

A strong man broke his wrist to this extent?Once the line is crossed, start a full-scale battle with 4 people?

Zong Han also knows the story of the victory of the underdog, but in the current situation, such a choice seems very irrational - even ridiculous.

Because of this confusion, the Jurchen Army's transitional night from 23 to 24 seemed extremely unsettled. The high-level generals made front-line transfers pretentiously, while discussing with the core command group on Balisu's side.

Dalai, Saba and others naturally thought they were deceitful.Wanyan Xiebao started to push forward frantically according to his "settings", making a gesture to seize the first moment of fighters, and the more than [-] troops who were already ready to go in the rear were also quickly crowding in.Gao Qingyi once advised: "Ning Yi is desperate, and his calculations must be extremely unusual. It is better to order the King of Baoshan to stop quickly and send another army to test."

Wanyan She also took the same cautious attitude, but Zong Han did not make a decision for a while, and Tu Li Speed ​​was doing his steady work as always - making the army in the middle move forward calmly, even if there is something, it will not be Completely disconnected from the oblique army.

"...Ning Yi's 6000 people are killed, even if the combat power is amazing, what will happen next? What is his purpose? To attack all the troops who have stepped out of Leigang and Palm Creek? How many people can he defeat?"

For half the night, Zong Han and others continued to deduce on the map, but they couldn't come up with the result.It was not yet full daylight, and the messenger of Xiebao also came, bringing the letters and statements of Xiebao himself.

"...Our 15 troops attacked, and my son led 2 people out of Leigang and Zongxi first. No matter how strong the Huaxia Army is, they can only meet with a total of 4. It can be concluded that the situation in the Southwest War has been decided... If the Huaxia Army cannot meet with 6000 troops, but only Ning Yi has [-] troops, what is the son afraid of? The worst thing is that he defeated his son with [-] troops and defeated his son with [-] troops. Another fight is..."

"...The two armies are fighting, and the opportunity is fleeting. Ning Yi is proud of his combat power, and it is time for his son to attack head-on. The only thing to worry about is that Ning Yi lures the enemy with 6000 people and gathers a frontal team. Yu Xian Swallowing my army completely with the strategy of encircling is exactly the strategy that hurts ten fingers rather than cutting one, but this matter is not difficult to deal with..."

Ning Yi came out so recklessly, the biggest possibility is nothing more than seeing that Leigang and Zongxi are no longer defendable, and wants to concentrate his superior forces to eat one of his own before all the 15 troops come out.But this is not a bad thing. In combat, if you are not afraid that the opponent has plans, you are afraid that the opponent does not have plans, that is elusive.It is also because of this, Baoshan Road, Ning Yi wants to eat, I just want to support him to death.

As for the rear, as long as the army of Li Su, Saba, Dalai and others firmly suppresses the Huaxia army in the mountains, so that he can't withdraw many people, the attempt to take chestnuts from the Huaxia arms is unlikely to be realized - if It is unbelievable in itself to be able to withdraw troops.

From another point of view, if Ning Yi led 6000 people over and said he wanted to eat the [-] to [-] main force in Xiebao's hands, and Xiebao's response was not "let him eat, please finish eating", then the Jurchens In fact, there is no need to fight for world hegemony anymore.

Even if it was four to five times stronger than Ning Yi, Xie Bao, who led one of Jurchen's strongest armies, also planned to lose the battle. The title of "Black Flag Army" has also been unknowingly changed to "Huaxia Army", which is also the respect that Huaxia Army has shown on Jurchen's face in the past four months.

On 24, Zong Han made a decision and approved the plan of Xiebao. At the same time, the army of Balisu moved forward steadily, while at a point to the north, the troops of Dalai and Saba maintained a conservative attitude. A deliberate response to the Huaxia Army's guess that "Zong Han and Sa Ba are together".

It is worth mentioning that, after obtaining the approval of his father, although Xie Bao ordered the back road army to continue to speed up the advance, on the front line, he just maintained a fast attitude, and made the team as much as possible to devote themselves to the main force of the Huaxia army. One team went to battle, and the time for all the troops to cross the Palm Creek was as long as possible for a day.

He still feels that 2 people are not safe enough, so he has to gather 6000 troops, and then rush to Ning Yi - this action is also testing Ning Yi's real purpose, if the opponent is really trying to fight with himself with [-] people, then He should wait for himself.

In the early morning of the 26th, the first team of Xiebao stepped across the Brown Creek. He originally thought that he would receive a head-on blow from the opponent, but the head-on blow didn’t come. Ning Yi’s army was still gathering miles away—he looked like It was to take the Jurchen main force in the middle of the attack, and moved to the side, assuming a deterrent posture.

- Intimidate you to be paralyzed!
At this time, Zong Han's flag was already displayed in the mid-range formation, which was pressing the main force of the Huaxia Army on the front line.The fighting in the mountains has been further escalated, and the offensive and defensive battles have been put into a positional mode. The Huaxia Army blocked the mountain pass with artillery arrays and continued to take advantage, but the Jurchen was also sure that the main force of the Huaxia Army would die so that it could not leave.In fact, everyone was waiting for the next change in the battle situation, and Ning Yi's reaction was so strange that it was confusing.

28. Nearly 3 troops from Xiebao have been assembled one after another, even bringing in [-] cavalry.Ning Yi moved forward unhurriedly, and Xie Bao also moved forward. He always thought that the other party should cheat at a certain moment, but he never did. The interaction between the two groups of people looked like two Children's yelling.

"You kind of cut it!"

"I cut it!"

"You chop!"

"I cut it!"

"No cutting is a grandson—"

Always cut a knife, otherwise it will become Sima Yi.

28 In the afternoon, there was a lot of fighting in the mountains ahead.Near Wangyuan Bridge, Wanyan Xiebao chopped it down with a single knife.
