It is not necessary to use the "On War" of foreign countries hundreds of years later to popularize science. People with a little common sense know that strategic victory generally depends on the gains and losses of special strongholds and strategic battles, and the priority of strategic battles is generally far greater. The gains and losses of the strongholds...there is no doubt about the truth that if you save land and lose people, you will lose both people and land. If you save people and lose land, you will lose both people and land. This truth is beyond doubt.

　　 As for the commanders of the Western Army and the Imperial Army Army, although they may not be able to say one, two, three, four, they can be used as military leaders for years. Who doesn't understand this in mind? Everyone understands that once the whole army leaves the city's defense circle and starts to move forward and actively seek a decisive battle, then it will really be a battle.

Therefore, Zhao Jiu gave Wu Jie the big tent of the Chinese army after the day’s affairs. After he retreated to the back camp to rest, the officers who came to see privately kept coming and going, but they didn’t come, and they all let Yang Yizhong give it to him. Passed the notes.

　　 And Zhao Jiu is also simply, but directly summoned the officers who asked for the meeting and handed over them in turn, and summoned them individually.

Among these people, some came to persuade the officials not to take risks themselves, others to persuade them to change their course, and there were others who simply expressed their determination... But at this moment, no matter who, whatever the intention, Zhao Jiu is an official. We must encourage them as much as possible and let them put their minds on the decisive battle.

　　 There is no way, he is not Li Shimin, there is no way to expect much in war, and this is the rare way he can play the role of an emperor.

　　 Just like that, in the midnight of the exchange, almost everyone in the imperial camp came here once before giving up. But early the next morning, in accordance with Wu Jie's military order, the imperial camp officers went back to lead their troops, but the West Third Road army at Jingyao officially began to march northward, trying to push Baishui.

There was nothing to say on the first day. Wu Jie signed the military order, and the army immediately set off to the north, but it could not be said to be out of the camp, because this large camp in Jingyao Town will be used by Zhang Jun, 40 miles away. The latter will also move the logistics center forward here. The troops only traveled twenty miles, and they camped again in a parallel position ten miles west of Pucheng, and then calmly waited for the soldiers and horses of the imperial camp in the surrounding city to gather.

After waiting for another two days, when the whole army assembled and went north again, the atmosphere was completely different, because from this day on, the Song army would lose the cover of the left and right wings of the city, exposing the main force in the wilderness. Exposed to the attack range of the Golden Army cavalry.

　　 Moreover, as the various units of the imperial battalion in the surrounding city were gathered in one place, the troops also appeared to be messy and large... To change the vocabulary, it was bloated.

Regarding this, Wu Jie personally commanded it. Starting from the dawn of the morning, he spent most of the time arranging the unit together. However, he gave up the long snake formation and put all parts of the imperial army Wang De in front. After the Eight-character Army, the soldiers and horses of Xihe Road separated from Xihe Road, and Lizhou Road was on the left and right. The soldiers and horses of Qinfeng Road took the civilians to the center. The last two soldiers and the royal squad of Zhao Guanjia were behind.

Not only that, the newly appointed Wu Taiwei also ordered that all ministries must line up the pikemen when marching, and the archers should postpone them, and the heavy vehicles of the ministries should be prepared separately. The cavalry gathered to the right and assisted Lizhou Road, which had a small number of cavalry.

　　 This is a typical marching formation to guard against cavalry raids.

But to be honest, before that, no one really thought that the army of eighty to ninety thousand could go out of such a unified marching sequence under unified command...especially the last one, dispatching their most precious cavalry out to Lizhou Road Liu Qi of the United States used it as a flanking aid... For the previous Zhao Song army, it was simply a fantasy.

　　 However, thanks to Zhao Guan's being silent in the final battle, he really transferred the cavalry out, and really put out the marching sequence like this.

　　Of course, this comes at a price...On this day, the whole army set out almost in the evening, and then only traveled ten miles before hurriedly settled in the simple camp that the auxiliary soldiers had already set up.

　　 This day of tossing is not so much a march, but rather a review of the troops!

　　 In fact, it is true.

Others don’t know. Zhao Jiu, who has been silent under Yuwen University for the day, woke up from the very beginning—he clearly realized that Wu Jie was not only to guard against cavalry raids, but also to strengthen his authority. , I’m afraid it’s more to figure out the combat power and actual numbers of the various ministries.

Coincidentally, the official Zhao’s family also wanted to know, so he sent Lin Jingmo and Yang Yizhong, leading the many jinshi who followed the imperial squad, and started with the imperial camp, which was also full of many jinshi, and fully checked the troops. .

　　 In fact, it was only at this time that the official had only figured out the true number of his troops in this battle through this unified march sequence developed by Wu Jie.

Yes, it is said that there are 100,000 troops here in Kansai, but it is obvious that the good and the bad are different, and the organization is different. If you don’t gather together and count them face to face, you will never know how many troops you have in your hand. What it looks like.

　　 After Yang Yizhong, Xueshi Kobayashi and others have been in the scorching sun, almost a whole day of hard work, before the scheduled camp ten miles away, how many calculations are except for one that can only be said to be a rather unsatisfactory result:

Among them, 20,000 people from the Eight-character Army came to 19, which is almost full... After all, although Wang Yanbu was slightly damaged under Yanling City at the beginning of last year, he has been stationed in Zhengzhou for the next year, and he can also be in time when he is next to Tokyo. Supplemented by the refugees in Hebei.

However, from the perspective of the marching subordinates, the Bazi Army also exposed its own problems, that is, the personal attributes are too heavy. Everyone knows that the leader of the Bazi Army, Wang Yan, enjoys supreme authority in the army, and this person has always been strict in the army. However, he was a little cautious, so he held the army very tightly.

Therefore, for a long time, there were only two commanding officers Jiao Wentong and Meng De in the Bazi Army. Last year, Zhao Jiu personally intervened and forced Wang Yan to promote another Liu Ze to the commanding officer and Fan Yihong to the commanding officer. But even so, this During the expedition, he also found a reason to leave the world-famous Fan Yihong with Qianbaren in Baoshuiguan.

　　 According to the ‘unreliable rumors’ reported by Yang Yizhong at that time, Wang Yan seemed to have fallen out with this confidant old subordinate. He believed that Fan Yihong’s direct acceptance of the Tokyo transfer order was to climb Gaozhi, which was regarded as betraying him. And if Zhao Jiu remembers correctly, this should be the third time that this unquestionable commander of abilities, loyalty, and determination to resist gold has fallen out with his subordinates after Yue Fei and Fu Xuan.

But no matter what, going back to the front, Wang Yan's 19,000 members, all of them are treated as the imperial army, and the armor rate is nearly 50%. There are only his army and the three commanding officers of Jiao Wentong, Meng De, and Liu Ze. Only four.

　　 Correspondingly speaking, the forefront of the Wang De Department has undergone several reorganizations. In fact, the other large section of the Imperial Army directly controlled by Zhao Jiu is much more sophisticated.

Below Wang De, Zhang Jing, Qiao Zhongfu, Fu Qing, Xin Yongzong, Xin Qizong, Li Qiong...Except for Huyantong who is stationed at Lantian key point, there are seven departments in total, Wang De department 4,000, Zhang Jing department 3,000, Xin Yongzong department 2,000, and the rest each Two thousand five hundred people, with a few attritions, is about 19,000 soldiers, but the rate of armor is higher than 70%.

　　 In other words, the so-called imperial army of forty thousand people is actually only about thirty-eight thousand people.

However, these troops, especially Wang De and other ministries, received financial supplies from Southeast, Bashu, and Jingxiang as early as the Nanyang period. They had sufficient military pay and priority to acquire equipment. They were stationed and trained under the eyes of Zhao Guanjia. Replenishment, supply, and reorganization are directly controlled by the Zhao official family to a considerable extent. But the official family does not need to drink the blood of soldiers after all. He can live by drinking the blood of the two imperial concubines' families, so these troops are really worth seeing.

　　 In fact, the rate of armor penetration of more than 70% is itself a terrible figure that is second only to Yuqian Straight, and perhaps only the Yue Fei Department can equal it.

　　 Regardless of what, this army, together with those of Wang Yan's Hebei Eight-character Army, who have blood and blood feuds against the Golden People, the so-called 38,000 troops in the imperial camp, is the true confidence of Zhao Jiu in this battle! It is undoubtedly the main force! It is the main army of the so-called Qizheng army! And it is right in the middle!

As for the soldiers and horses on the West Third Road in Shaanxi, that is, the three troops on Xihe Road, Qinfeng Road, and Lizhou Road, they are of course the main army, and unexpectedly, after a few inspections, Kobayashi and Yang Yizhong discovered that they were actually overcrowded... Three soldiers and horses, aside from the cavalry supported by the rest of the troops, there are actually 34,000.

This is not to say that these people don’t drink the blood of soldiers, but that the “over ten thousand” reported by Zhang Jun at the beginning is “over ten thousand”, and when Zhao Guan’s family was waiting in Chang’an, these soldiers were still there. Convergence non-stop.

　　 As for the establishment, it was not until this time that Zhao Jiu understood that according to the establishment, these three soldiers and horses should have 70,000 right! But after several years of defeat, disintegration, and internal strife, these 35,000 people are here.

　　 These three groups of soldiers and horses are all traditionally organized by the Western Army. Below the generals, the soldiers and horses are supervised, and the generals and lieutenants of the road have their own points. They are complicated and self-contained. As for the Zhao officials’ direct contact, nothing more than Liu Xi, Liu Qi, Zhao Zhe, Murong Wei, Li Yanqi, Zhang Zhong, Qiao Ze, and Sun Wo.

So these forces, plus Zhao Jiu’s own two thousand imperial guards, and the two groups of six thousand back troops handed over to Wu Jie, are the main force of the Song army that persecuted Baishui. In total, it definitely exceeds eight. Wan Shibing!

The crowd of 80,000 is not counted as Hu Yantong guarding Lantian, not counted as Jingzhao local soldiers guarding Chang'an and Weibei, plus the so-called'killer's skill' accompanied by Zhang Jun's logistics at this time, that is, Zhao Jiu dispatched various elites Acquired a group of three or four thousand mixed-up troops; plus the troops collected by Beisan Road Zhongquduan, Wu Lin Zijingyuan Road, and Huanqing Road; plus Li Yongqi's division, which is considered to be a divine soldier; In addition, Fangzhou defenders... indeed, the Song army in this battle has exceeded one hundred thousand!

And back to the front, for the time being, regardless of the 20,000 troops distributed in the rest of the battlefield, the current 80,000 people are not just 80,000 people at all. There are tens of thousands of people in Guanzhong, from Jingzhao, Huazhou to Yaozhou. , Was drafted out early, left his house, bid farewell to his family, throw away the fields that should be taken care of, or follow the army to deliver supplies, or follow with a bow and spear in a commoner posture to serve as an auxiliary soldier.

　　 There is no need to investigate, Zhao Jiu can imagine what it was like when they were recruited, the three officials and three separates, the rise and fall of the people are suffering, but what else? At the beginning of the year, Wanyan Living Daughter, the eldest son of Wanyan Lou's family, once slaughtered a small town called as a water deposit, in the territory of Huazhou where the army was located at this time.

Of course, putting aside those thoughts, another day later, the army will set off again, and more than a hundred thousand troops will form a formation, rolling forward like a wave, vast and vast, almost endless, and people live in it. Take an uplifting attitude.

　　 And Zhao Jiu stayed until the afternoon of that day when he came to the predetermined camping position and climbed aside the hillside before the whole army set up the village. This was the first time he got a glimpse of the whole picture of this army.

　　 "Such soldiers and horses, in the past, can claim four hundred thousand fraudulently!" Wu Jie led the generals to accompany Zhao Jiu up a hillside, and then couldn't help feeling sigh. "Use it properly, where can't you go?"

Zhao Jiu nodded slightly and did not comment, but only pointed to an obvious high mountain in the distance and asked casually: "Compared with the south, there are not only plateaus and waters, but there are actually several serious hills, but I don't know them all. What name do you call?"

　　 "A good instructor knows that the mountain under our feet belongs to Mount Yao. It is the most extensive mountain range on the Weibei Plain. It runs northeast and southwest." Liu Xi rushed to reply. "As for the mountain to the northeast that the official refers to, it is called Jinsu Mountain, which is where the Wulong Mountain's remaining veins are faintly visible behind it. The Jinsu Mountain is most well-known in the world as the Tailing Mausoleum of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty. After Sushan!"

Zhao Jiu waited quietly for the other party to finish, before he laughed: "I have said it, don't call me an official, and don't call me a minister, otherwise it will be heard by the soldiers and spread out in a big way. Just call me the deputy commander, but you have to call Marshal Liu Taiwei."

　　 Liu Xi quickly pleaded guilty.

And Zhao Jiu didn’t take it seriously. He just continued the chattering just now, looking at the mountain in front of me, and felt emotional: "From the Wei River to this point, there is Suyi Town first, and then Jinsu Mountain. It can be seen that the land of Weibei is rich and fertile. Great rivers and mountains."

　　 The people around are naturally busy echoing.

　　 "The official...the deputy commander."

　　Wu Jie hesitated when everyone's words calmed down. After all, he took the opportunity to point his finger to the northeast and continued to solemnly inform the military situation. "Yaoshan stretches for about thirty miles. We have entered Yaoshan for a few miles at this time, and Loushi is ten miles northeast of Yaoshan, and next to a Shuize Lizhai, 30 miles away from here... such as No surprises, once the Jin army comes to fight, it should be the victory or defeat on the plateaus between Yaoshan and Jinsushan."

　　 Zhao Jiu nodded slowly, and his expression became a little serious.

　　 "Deputy marshal...Marshal." Liu Xi hesitated for a moment when he heard this, and then suddenly interrupted. "I think there are also large areas of water under the plains over there. It's better to imitate the previous Jingyao Daying layout and build a village next to the water..."

Zhao Jiu finally took up the attitude of interrogating the military. He turned to look at Wu Jie with a straight face. The meaning is simple-you are the commander in chief, and you have always known the surrounding terrain. You came to a place less than 30 miles away from the enemy to prepare to establish a village. The place is likely to be the camp before the decisive battle. Didn't it have a plan for establishing the village?

And sure enough, Wu Jie frowned slightly, and immediately faced Liu Xi with a stubborn yellow face, and said, "Didn’t I have already ordered the whole army to quickly build up the village along the Yaoshan Mountain? The auxiliary soldiers and civilian husbands have been ordered to go. Logging in the mountains, how to change the strategy of establishing the village?!"

　　 Zhao Jiu said nothing, then went to see Liu Xi again.

However, Liu Xi hesitated a little, and still seriously said, "Deputy Marshal, Marshal, I am definitely not violating the military order. Our department has already done logging in accordance with the military order... But I really think that to deal with the benefits of the golden cavalry, first In Shuize! As for Mount Yao, although it is only more than 30 miles long, there is a steep mountain in the middle that is difficult for the army to pass and can be stationed in. With such a stronghold, the use of blocking cavalry may not be as useful as the summer waters. On the contrary, you must be careful of the golden fire attack."

　　 This is a somewhat serious and reasonable posture. In fact, when this statement comes out, many people have intentions. But when the topic progressed to this point, Zhao Jiu stopped participating. Instead, he turned to look at the scenery. Obviously, the official was still prepared to respect Wu Da's authority unconditionally.

　　 However, Wu Jie knew that if everyone wanted to be convinced, it was impossible to rely on the prestige of the officials again and again. It was better to give a reason. Therefore, she immediately responded:

"What Liu Jinglue said is quite true. I also think that Mizusawa is more useful to deal with cavalry...but don't forget, summer water rises and ditches overflow, most of the ravines and depressions between the plateaus are reduced to waters, and the Jinjun cavalry is tens of thousands. Once the battle is over, I’m afraid it’s not going to spread more than a dozen miles. As long as the waters are there, no matter whether our army camp is in front of the waters or at the foot of the mountain, the Golden Army cavalry will inevitably be part of them. In front of the mountain, although you have to be careful to set fires, there is a great advantage that Lizhai can't compare in front of Shuizawa..."

　　 Liu Xi glanced at the back of the official Zhao’s head, who was looking down the mountain. He also folded his hands towards Wu Jie, “Please also ask the marshal for advice.”

　　 "Our army is complicated and numerous!" Wu Jie confronted with that yellow face seriously. "Once the various ministries engage in battle, they will probably fight on their own. At this time, only the high ground can observe the overall situation, and then adjust the response and support of the various ministries! And if, as Liu Jinglue said, greed for the benefit of Mizusawa, only in front of Mizusawa If the company is attacked and fought with each other, the coach of mine is afraid that he can only fight against the front crowd, and it is difficult to make adjustments. On the contrary, the golden cavalry can rush to the surrounding highlands to watch the battle at any time and make adjustments in time..."

　　 Liu Xi was silent, and no one around the generals immediately responded to Liu Xi.

　　 "It's not only that." Wu Jie continued to sullenly, pointing only to the white watersawa in the distance and eloquently right. "Liu Jinglue, you and I are both from Kansai. Don’t you know why this kind of water came from? It’s nothing more than the Kansai loess plateau can’t hold water, but it’s wrapped in yellow mud and it’s easy to block, so it can’t flow. Go out. Then in summer, if it rains heavily, it will flood from the ditches and flow backwards into the gully between the plateaus to form water... This type of water will rise once the heavy rains, but if it doesn’t rain for a few days, it will become The muddy land, if it won’t rain for a few days, just dry up...Although summer rain may be there, do you really want to bet on astronomy? If it really doesn’t rain for a few days, and the Golden Army doesn’t fight for days, what about waiting for the water to dry up? "

　　 Liu Xi glanced at the back of Zhao Guan's head again, and could only put his hands together: "It's short thinking."

　　 "It's okay." Wu Jie rarely sneered. "All for the country!"

Hearing the end of the wrangling behind, Zhao Jiu wanted to turn around and talk, but at this moment, a cloud of smoke and dust in the far northeast immediately caused all the generals on Mount Yao to be completely solemn, because there was no need to wait to see clearly, everyone It can also be guessed that it is definitely a group of no fewer than thousands of golden cavalry, coming from the northeast along Yaoshan.

　　 The Song Army saw it from a distance, and naturally shook, but Liu Qi, who controlled the cavalry and was responsible for the protection of the army's right wing, immediately rushed down the hillside and returned to the team to deal with the incoming Jin army. Many other officers also resigned and went down the mountain one after another, preparing their subordinates to respond. For a time, only Zhao Jiu, Wu Jiu, Liu Xi, and several imperial courtiers still looked far away on this hillside.

And before long, under the setting sun, everyone on the mountain could clearly see that thousands of riders galloped in. The topography of the plateau could not hinder too much. It quickly approached the unrefined Dazhai, attracting many Song army, civilians, and auxiliary soldiers. Panicked. However, they were completely helpless until the cavalry galloped up to the white waters. After several attempts, the large troops were difficult to pass. The few lucky ones who came over the road in the waters were greeted by the large Song army, relaxed. Hunting... In desperation, this unit can only go eastward, seeming to try to bypass this summer water from the direction of Jinsu Mountain.

However, this unit has not yet moved east for a long time. It may be that the Lizhou Army has been deployed on the right flank of the whole army under the command of Liu Qi, which is the east side of the army. The so-called long spear is in the front, the bow and crossbow are in the back, and the cavalry is left and right. Arranged, clearly arrayed to wait... But he simply gave up the detour and turned back to the northeast... Still billowing smoke and dust.

　　The golden people came and went in a hurry, the mountains naturally cheered each other, and the establishment of the village continued to operate calmly.

But the commander-in-chief of the whole army, Wu Jie, couldn't help but frown—Jin Jun gave up too soon and came too late. This is not the way he wants to fight, it's like trying and showing in front of someone. general.

　　 "The terrain and army establishment, have you seen and remembered these clearly?"

　　 More than ten miles away, on the Jinsu Mountain, the Wanyanlou room, which had been sitting for most of the day, suddenly turned his head. Behind him, there were hundreds of officers of the Golden Army, who were extremely safe and conquered, but they all stood upright.

　　 The summer is full of vegetation, and there are no people visible here for several miles away from the mountain.

　　 Among them, the head of the general is the deputy commander Wan Yan Piao Lisu. He heard that, UU reading www. uukanshu.com immediately stepped forward and nodded.

　　 "How?" Lou Shizheng asked.

　　 "It's a bit troublesome." Pulling quickly and frankly. "The first is the terrain. One is that the waters are chaotically spread in the center of the battlefield, and the cavalry is naturally blocked. The other is that the Song army takes the initiative to stand up against the mountain and stand on the ground... But that's all. The point is that the Song army is huge, several times larger than me. It was actually able to displace that kind of formation and advance properly. It can be seen that the Song army is not comparable to the past, whether it is a general or an army. Of course, there are also inferior soldiers, such as the one wrapped in the middle."

Lou Shi couldn't help laughing: "After the First World War in Yanling, anyone who thought that the Song people were weak and deceived was a ridiculous man; and after the First World War in Fangzhou, who thought that the Song army would be unscrupulous and would not dare to fight is also ridiculous. If you think that Song Jun will be reborn within a year, and all of them will become a strong army, then they are still ridiculous... I have already remembered the banner in the middle, you just said how to deal with it?"

　　 "The number of Song troops is too much and the time is urgent, let's hurry up and call all the living girls to come to help!" Wan Yan pulled out a natural word. "The living female general has 10,000 soldiers, and if we add up to 40,000 soldiers, it can still be worth a battle."

　　 has always been eager for a decisive battle, and even took the initiative to cross the white water and come to the Yaoshan area. The Lou room, which is obviously tempting the enemy, was silent for a while, but stood up and shook his head continuously: "Let's wait a minute... Let's go back to the camp today."
