Fenghou

Three thousand soldiers assembled, and then three large ships docked, and another three thousand soldiers came down, and six thousand soldiers gathered together to form a protective wall to protect other warships from docking.

More and more ships docked, and more and more soldiers appeared in the team, which soon exceeded [-] people.

Cao Zongqin, the governor of the capital, shouted, "Beat the drum and go to battle!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The battle drums on the shore sounded, and Cao Zongtan led [-] soldiers to kill the Song army behind...

The Song army was under attack from the front and back, and Wu Ling knew that the situation was over, and shouted: "The whole army will follow me to break through!"

"Woo-woo-"

The horn of the Song army's breakthrough sounded, and Wu Ling led the army to break through a bloody road, leading the army to break through to the south, and more than [-] soldiers followed Wu Ling to retreat to the south.

Tens of thousands of Huaixi troops did not pursue, but seized the opportunity to occupy Zhenjiang City and the wharf to protect the main force across the river.

As the sky gradually dawned, Wu Ling's army had withdrawn to Danyang County, fifty miles away, and gathered some of the scattered troops. The number of his army increased to more than [-], but he still lost more than [-] people. The key It was because the pier was not guarded, and Dantu County was also lost.

Danyang County is not small, but there is no food in the city, and the food is in Dantu County, which was captured by the enemy.

In desperation, Wu Ling had no choice but to lead his army to quickly retreat to Changzhou along the canal. Jinling County in Changzhou has more food, the city wall is tall and strong, and there are two to three thousand defenders in the city. Hold Jinling County.

Wu Ling sent people to report to the court, and he led an army of [-] to Jinling County, a hundred miles away.

In the afternoon, all the [-] troops crossed the Yangtze River, and Zhang Jun also crossed the Yangtze River.

Zhang Jun was very satisfied with the battle situation last night, it was all Yang Shi's strategy, he immediately rewarded Yang Shi with 3000 taels of silver, and promised that he would make him the Prime Minister after he ascended the throne.

But Yang Shi was a little scared in his heart. Last night's strategy was completely implemented according to Chen Qing's plan. He was just a puppet. Everything was under the control of King Yong Chen Qing. Yang Shi had a deeper understanding of the feeling of being a pawn.

The first thousand and 250 chapters and four secrets

At this time, Chen Qing led an army of 20 to Hanyang Mansion. He deployed [-] troops this time. Among them, Liu Qiong led [-] cavalry to enter Jiangnan West Road, and Gao Ding led [-] troops to Yingzhou. spring.

Chen Qing's [-]-strong army is the main force. Once the time is right, his [-]-strong army will sweep across the Jianghuai River.

In addition, Chen Qing also sent [-] sailors and hundreds of warships to Dangtu County. Once the time is right, this navy will attack and cut off Zhang Jun's retreat.

As soon as Chen Qing arrived at Hanyang Mansion, he received news from Zhenjiang Mansion that Zhang Jun's [-] troops had crossed the Yangtze River and captured Zhenjiang Mansion, and Wu Ling's army had retreated to Changzhou.

Guan Shigu, who was accompanying him, asked with a smile, "What will happen to the battle on Jiangnan West Road?"

Chen Qing looked at the river in the distance, and said calmly: "There will be no suspense in the battle on Jiangnan West Road. My subordinates will help. Han Shizhong's army will definitely be defeated."

Guan Shigu sighed and said: "I always can't understand why the court thinks they can withstand the attack of Zhang Jun's army? Especially with our help behind it, they always wake up at the last moment."

"Maybe they're still dreaming!"

Chen Qing said with a smile: "I haven't woken up yet, and I will regret it when I really wake up. I am very patient, and I am waiting for their final awakening."

……

The marching speed of the [-] army was relatively slow, and it took two days to enter the territory of Fuzhou. There were many rivers, undulating mountains, and large tracts of cultivated land. Most of the villages were concentrated at the foot of the mountains.

In addition to cultivated land, the forests in Fuzhou are also widely distributed. Lush forests can be seen everywhere on both sides of the official road, stretching all the way to the mountains.

The slow marching speed of the army is also because they carry a large amount of food and grass, and the carts creak and walk in the team.

Han Jin and Zhang Ziqi walked in front of the army. Han Jin was very careful and kept looking at the terrain on both sides. Although they were still fifty miles away from Linchuan County, Han Jin was still nervous. After all, Luo Shengping's [-] troops were ambushed and wiped out. It's hard to say that Han Shizhong won't repeat his old tricks, especially when his troops are at a disadvantage, ambush is a better strategy.

Of course, the ambush is also very risky. Once the opponent sees through it, it will be backlashed, which will lead to painful consequences.

Han Jin kept sending scouts to explore the way ahead, and the scouts kept coming back to report that the journey was safe, at least within twenty miles.

At this moment, an arrow shot out from the woods and hit Zhang Ziqi's horse. Zhang Ziqi was so frightened that he fell off the horse. The soldiers immediately formed a circle to protect Zhang Ziqi.

"It's a headless arrow with a letter on it!"

It turned out to be an arrow letter. The soldier picked up the arrow and handed it to Zhang Ziqi. Zhang Ziqi was relieved, but still a little scared. If someone wanted to ambush them, the arrow just now could completely kill him.

Zhang Ziqi quickly opened the letter and read it again, then hurriedly handed the letter to Han Jin. Han Jin took the letter and read it carefully. There was only one sentence on it, "There are [-] ambushes ten miles away, and there is a path to the south to bypass the forest!" '

There is also a map below, drawing the location of the path, and you can pass by the side of them.

Han Jin was stunned, his scouts didn't find any ambushes!

"General Han, who sent this letter?" Zhang Ziqi asked nervously.

"It should be the scouts of the Western Army. They discovered the enemy's situation and helped us secretly, but our scouts didn't find the enemy's situation!"

"Could it be that our scouts were careless and didn't find the enemy army in ambush?"

After thinking about it, Han Jin suddenly realized that the enemy army must have made a time difference. They were deep in the woods when the scouts passed by. They came out to ambush when the scouts passed by. It must be like this.

"General, what should we do?" Zhang Ziqi was so nervous that his expression changed.

Han Jin sneered and said, "It's fine if I don't know, since we know, it's their bad luck!"

……

In the valley ten miles away, Han Shizhong led 3 troops to ambush in the woods on both sides. Han Shizhong was also experienced. They only had [-] troops, and [-] of them were recruits. Wan Shuijun.

Han Shizhong finally chose an ambush, which is the only strategy that can win more with less, and he is very good at it, and has a great chance of success.

Han Shizhong led the army to ambush in the depths of the forest for about [-] paces. He knew the habits of the Song army very well. Generally, the inspection was around [-] paces, and at most it was no more than a hundred paces. Zhang Jun's army was far inferior to Yue Fei's elite army. Yue Fei's scouting distance is still a hundred steps away, and Zhang Jun's army scouts will definitely not go deep.

Sure enough, he judged correctly, Zhang Jun's scouts only probed about [-] steps deep and then ended. When the scouts were far away, the [-] ambush soldiers moved forward quietly, but they were still about [-] steps away from the official road.

Half an hour later, the Huaixi army team began to appear and entered their ambush circle, but the front was actually the baggage team, and mule carts full of grain were walking slowly on the official road, one after another. , The cart team is more than ten miles long.

Han Shizhong was a little uneasy. Usually the luggage is at the back. Why is the luggage of the Huaixi Army placed in the front? He whispered: "Bring the scout commander to see me!"

Not long after, the scout commander bent over and ran to see Han Shizhong, "See you, Commander!"

"Let me ask you, when you inspected the enemy army last time, did they walk in front?"

"no!"

The commander of the scouts shook his head, "I saw it with my own eyes. Their supply team is behind the central army, never in front. I don't know why they changed their positions."

There is a problem!Did the enemy find them in an ambush?It should be impossible to be right, the enemy scouts didn't find them at all, so why are they so weird and put the baggage team in front?

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon, Han Shizhong pondered for a moment, and ordered decisively, "Order the whole army to retreat!"

Before his order could be heard, the army behind him started to commotion. When Han Shizhong turned his head, he was startled. He saw flames burning half a mile behind him, thick smoke billowing, and a large forest burning.

"Oops!"

Han Shizhong knew that they were exposed and that they were in serious trouble when they were counterattacked by the enemy. He immediately got up and shouted: "Retreat! The whole army retreats!"

"Dang! Dang! Dang!" the retreat gong sounded.

But the official road was blocked by the luggage team, so they had to rush eastward along the woods. Army soldiers fell to the ground with arrows one after another, screaming, and thousands of people were shot down.

Han Jin led an army of [-] to run around the valley, take a small road to the front of the Song army, and lay down an ambush in turn.

At this time, the eastern woods also began to burn in large areas, and the eastern and western woods burned together, and the woods burned very quickly.

The Song army in the woods was in a panic, and Wang Gui shouted: "Marshal, we must break through, otherwise everyone will be burned to death here!"

Han Shizhong shouted, "The Sword and Shield Army is ahead, break out!"

The soldiers of the Song Army rushed out of the woods. Thousands of soldiers of the Shield Army raised their shields high and rushed up against the dense arrows of the enemy. Although they were shot and killed continuously, most of the soldiers of the Song Army rushed out of the woods.

Han Jin swung his knife and shouted, "Go up!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The sound of war drums was beating fiercely, and [-] Huaixi troops attacked the Song army from three directions, and the armies of both sides fought fiercely together in the large rice fields that had just been harvested.

The first thousand and 250 chapters and five card slots

Zhang Gongyu, the rear commander of the Song Army, received an order from Han Shizhong to send someone for help, and immediately led [-] soldiers out of Linjiang County to the ambush valley [-] miles away.

But the [-] soldiers had just rushed out of the county seat for less than five miles, when suddenly a war drum sounded, and [-] Western Army cavalry rushed from all directions, surrounding him in a long and narrow depression about three miles long and only one mile wide.

The [-] cavalrymen were brightly armored and murderous, and the mountain-like oppressive momentum of the cavalry frightened the [-] recruits to look pale and tremble.

At this time, dozens of cavalry rushed up and shouted together: "We are the cavalry of the Western Army. Put down your weapons and armor. His Royal Highness King Yong wants you to go home. If you want to resist, you will be killed!"

The prestige of King Yong made the soldiers no longer have the courage to resist, "Dangling! Dangling..." More and more soldiers put down their weapons and took off their armor.

Zhang Gongyu looked at the panicked soldiers behind him, and then at the cavalry who couldn't see all around. He sighed in his heart and ordered: "The whole army put down their weapons, take off their armor and surrender!"

With the order from the general, all the soldiers stopped hesitating and put down their weapons. Liu Qiong ordered Yue Yun and Zhang Xian to lead their respective [-] cavalry to escort the surrendering soldiers to the north quickly. Follow north.

More than an hour later, Han Shizhong led more than [-] remnants of the army and fled to the foot of Linchuan City. He shouted to open the door. The only answer he received was arrows, and a soldier pointed at the tower and shouted: "Marshal, the battle flag has been changed."

Only then did Han Shizhong realize that the battle flag on the top of the city had become the flag of the Huaixi Army. Han Shizhong was very surprised. He didn't know what happened and where did the [-] troops in the city go?

At this moment, the soldiers found the soldier Han Shizhong sent to pass the order. The soldier stayed in the city and asked the officials to prepare food. Li Fuxing led an army of [-] to occupy the county seat. He hid nearby and did not show up until Han Shizhong came back with his army.

The soldiers cried, "Commander, it's not the Huaixi Army, but [-] to [-] cavalry from the Western Army. They captured all [-] brothers, and the deputy general Zhang Dutong also surrendered."

"Fifty thousand Western Army cavalry!"

Han Shizhong's eyes widened suddenly, and he suddenly understood that the scouts of the Western Army must have assisted the Huaixi Army, otherwise how could the Huaixi Army find them?

The Western Army also participated in the battle. Needless to say, the flag on the top of the city is fake, and they don't want to let themselves know.

"Marshal, what shall we do!"

Han Shizhong looked back at the army, and there were still about 5000 people. He immediately ordered: "Retreat to Shangrao County!"

Han Shizhong led the remaining troops to retreat to Shangrao County...

Seeing that Han Shizhong was going far away, Li Fuxing, the lord of the city, ordered to replace the flag with the battle flag of the Western Army. Soon, Han Jin led more than [-] vanguard troops to Linchuan County. At this time, he had received news from the scouts that Linchuan County was captured A western army occupied the city, and the number of people in the city was unknown. Han Shizhong led the remaining troops to retreat eastward.

Han Jin was not surprised that Xijun appeared at all. Wasn’t their information given by Xijun?He also pointed out a path for them, allowing them to bypass the ambushing Song army.

There must be a western army nearby, the number should not be large, and they are responsible for threading the needles for them.

At this time, the gate of the city opened, and a middle-aged man in civilian military uniform rushed out on horseback. Han Jin recognized it at a glance. Wasn't it Wang Yong who sent them the information?

He suddenly understood, and couldn't help but secretly smiled wryly. It turned out that the Western Army had arranged everything.

"General Han, stay safe and sound!" Wang Yong urged his horse forward with a smile.

"It turned out to be Mr. Wang!"

Han Jin smiled bitterly and said, "What should I call you?"

"Wang Yong is my real name. You probably haven't heard of it. You can call me Wang Canjun."

Han Jin clasped his fists and saluted and asked, "Excuse me, Wang Canjun, have the [-] troops in the city been captured by you?"

Wang Yong shook his head. They withdrew to the east. Soon after the fire broke out, Han Shizhong sent someone to order them to evacuate to the east immediately. When we arrived, it was already an empty city, and all the troops had withdrawn. "

"I see!"

Han Jin asked again: "May I ask how many people are there in your army?"

"Only 3000 people, under the order of King Yong, to assist you in defeating the imperial army, mainly to send you information."

Han Jin heaved a sigh of relief. There were only 3000 people, which was nothing to worry about. He quickly thanked: "We were able to defeat Han Shizhong's army this time, thanks to Wang Canjun's intelligence, and thanks to the scouts who delivered the letter at a critical moment, otherwise we would have been ambushed."

"You're welcome, what is General Han's next plan?"

"Naturally, continue to pursue the Song army, assist the main force of the prince, and attack Lin'an from the south."

After a pause, Han Jin said again: "If necessary, please continue to assist us!"

Wang Yong smiled slightly: "No problem, His Highness King Yong is looking forward to your breaking through Lin'an, we have a common goal!"

The mountain fire was almost extinguished, and Zhang Zi led an army of 5000 people who also came here from a young age. Forty percent of the food, grass and livestock were burned to death. The blocked official roads, they could not come from the official roads, so they had to take a detour. It was a fierce battle , Song Jun was burned to death, shot to death and killed [-] people. Although the Huaixi Army had the upper hand, it also paid the price of more than [-] people killed in battle.

There are still more than 2000 people left in their current army, and there are more than [-] grain trucks and supplies, which are enough to support them to fight to Lin'an Mansion.

When Zhang Ziqi heard that the Western Army had appeared, he was really hesitant. He was worried that the army would go east and the Western Army would take the opportunity to occupy Jiangnan West Road.

Han Jin enlightened him and said: "Our key is to break through Lin'an City. We have the land in the south of the Yangtze River as our foundation, and then compete with the Western Army for Jiangnan West Road and Jianghuai. It doesn't matter who occupies Jiangnan West Road now. Whether we can hold it is the key. , if the western army comes, we will definitely not be able to hold it, so instead of staying on Jiangnan West Road and being wiped out by the western army, it is better to save our strength and go to Jiangnan to join forces with the prince."

When Zhang Ziqi heard the words "preserve strength", he understood, nodded and said: "The army will continue to pursue Han Shizhong's remnant army, and then report to the father, and listen to the arrangement of the father!"

Han Jin happily said: "Exactly!"

The army continued to form a team, and the [-] army marched towards Xinzhou to the east.

……

Chen Qing gave the "Beijing News" confidence. At noon, the "Beijing News" published the latest battle report on the front page, "Zhang Jun attacked Jiangning, the Song army was defeated in Jinling." Jiang Ning crossed the river and launched a sneak attack on the army of Wu Lin in Zhenjiang Prefecture. Zhang Jun's main force took the opportunity to cross the river. At present, the rebel army has occupied Zhenjiang Prefecture, and Wu Lin's army retreated to Jinling County, Changzhou.

This news spread throughout the city along with the "Beijing News", and the public opinion was once again in an uproar, and it caused panic in Lin'an. The price of rice soared from [-] yuan per bucket to [-] yuan per bucket. There was a long queue.
