140 Offense and Defense 3
After receiving the letter sent back by Lin Jianyue, Luoyang was in panic. The commanders and generals of all the soldiers gathered in Luoyang to discuss how to save Lin Jianyue.
Liu Bingyun first said: "Jingshou's plan is good, but the risk is too great, and the use of a substitute is not allowed. Jieshou's subordinates are less than 70,000 people, and he is not the opponent of Batu Su's nearly 200,000 troops. What is the mistake? What should Longjie's Xinyang army do? It's better to give up Xuzhou and concentrate 100,000 to 150,000 troops directly across the river. Batushou is powerful, but the military force is scattered. There are only tens of thousands of people south of Jinzhou and only 30,000 cavalry. You can directly take down the areas around Longde Prefecture. After receiving Jieshou, you can fight Batu Su according to the situation. You can return to Luoyang if you are at least not good."
Hao Tianfeng shook his head and said, "As soon as I move, Haci will advance westward. No one is good, and there is no way out of retreat. This is not the main thing. The letter was sent more than ten days ago. Now the action of the Jishou has already begun. If there is really any problem, it is too late for us to mobilize the troops."
Liu Bingyun said angrily: "What should I do? Just look at it? Do you still have a conscience?"
Hao Tianfeng said painfully: "Jianyue was something I grew up watching. I was more anxious than anyone else! But he seemed gentle on weekdays, but he really made a decision and could not violate it. We can only believe in his ability and destiny. Liu Changshi first brought his wife and Jing Yu to Luoyang according to Jianyue's intention, and then dispatched two troops to the Yellow River to prepare. Qu Shangqun's navy also came back and was waiting in Mengjin."
Liu Jiahao disagreed: "I think the plan of Jieshuai is very comprehensive. He has rich experience and is extremely brave. He has more than 20,000 most elite cavalry around him, and he acts quickly. Even if it is not going well, I don't believe it. Everyone, why Jieshuai did this clearly. We should see that many of the Hu troops and energy were indeed dragged to Hedong. Our biggest task is to use this opportunity to expand our strength, and to prevent Guanzhong and Kaifeng from taking advantage of the situation. It is really not advisable to move lightly."
Hao Tianfeng sighed a little, Liu Jiahao was too straightforward, and his words would become a testimony of disrespect and be attacked by political enemies in the future.
Tieqinglin said coldly: "Jingshou has already made clear orders. We must implement the arrangements for Jishou! If there is really nothing to be judged, there is no need to argue. I will lead the army across the river and die with the Hu people."
The final result is done.
While Liu Bingyun sent someone back to Nanyang to pick up Li Yunxi and the prince, he started to build the palace again. He was very angry. Even if Jishuai scolded him, he would do this. He had to let his wife live in the palace and confirm his name. At the same time, he notified the tutoring department to pay close attention to internal movements. Someone should take it down immediately if there is any abnormal movement. It seems that only in this way can he comfort himself.
He really thought that he wrote another letter to his old father, asking the Liu family to immediately rebel, causing chaos in Batusu and protect Lin Jianyue's safety more.
Batusu watched the infantry attacking Yindi Pass fall and sighed. The one who guarded the city was Lin Jianyue's elite troops. They had been fighting for two or three days, but they had not even stepped up the city.
Batusu was a little dissatisfied with Liu Jingye, but he sent more than 10,000 people from his direct troops, and he was still slow to work. He was killed and injured by the Khitan Xixia Semi from outside the pass. However, he didn't say much, and he still needed Taiyuan to provide supplies! He was also a confidant of the Khan.
Batusu was not in a hurry. As Lin Jianyue expected, his real killer was the 25,000 Khan's army who deviated from the Taiyue Mountains. As long as he controlled Yueyang County, Lin Jianyue had no choice but to escape.
Batusu even expected that Lin Jianyue's main force was not Lin Jianyue's main force, and he also thought that Lin Jianyue might ambush his detoured troops, but Lin Jianyue only had so many soldiers, and he was trying to die. Before Diesha led his troops to attack the sneak attack, Batusu had already told him that if he encountered more than 40,000 Lin Jianyue's main force, he did not have to fight and immediately go to Longde Mansion to gather the troops left by Aricha, and wait for him to break through Yindi Pass, and then attack Lin Jianyue's main force together to eliminate the major problems in one fell swoop.
Tens of miles outside Yueyang County, Lin Jianyue looked at the ambush terrain chosen by Liu Hesheng, and couldn't help but sigh that Liu Hesheng had really grown up. Due to Lin Jianyue's advance prediction, Liu Hesheng even had time to bring his bulky bed camp.
Lin Jianyue was more confident in Liu Hesheng's leadership of the Jinning Army in the future.
Looking at the scouts with only a few people coming back with blood, I was shocked. After receiving the news that the strongest Qiexue Army who had detoured was actually more than 20,000, and nearly 30,000, he knew that the ambush point he had chosen was not good now.
The ambush location is in the middle of a relatively open valley that is more than twenty miles long and several miles wide. It is the best route to attack Yueyang County. From the perspective of the enemy's march route, this is also the one I chose.
Since the scout has been discovered, the enemy attacking must be cautious and may run away as soon as they see the army. The risk of his plan to go out is too great, and he cannot go to Taiyuan, Jinzhong, because he alone has more than 20,000 cavalry, and he may not be able to defeat this enemy in the wild, so he may not be able to escape.
Time was tight, Lin Jianyue immediately ordered Liu Hesheng to retreat to the valley entrance and hide on the mountains on both sides of the valley entrance. He arranged surveillance personnel every one or two miles along the valley road. After the first group of enemy scouts appeared, he immediately went down the mountain to set up a formation. Once the enemy entered the valley road, he did not have to wait in place and directly lined up the array to attack and advance. The bed camp was unable to move, so he arranged it on the mountain here and killed as much as he could.
Lin Jianyue led the cavalry regiment to the valley road, and waited for the opportunity beside him. As soon as the enemy entered the valley road, he would cover him and kill him from behind and attack him from behind, so that more enemies could be left behind.
The plan is rough, but it is impossible to arrange in detail in such a short time. Lin Jianyue's actions are the most critical, and they test the ability to grasp the opportunity.
Lin Jianyue was lucky. It seemed that the enemy scouts were familiar with the terrain and were all concerned about ambushing valleys. They did not find themselves hidden more than ten miles away from the entrance of the valley. The plan was half successful.
Time is so difficult, and waiting for the news of the scouts feels so long, and Lin Jianyue is rarely so nervous.
Diesha stopped a few miles outside the valley entrance. He had to wait for the accurate news from the scout. Lin Jianyue had not much troops, so this was the best place to ambush him.
The key is that he has met Lin Jianyue's scout. It seems that Lin Jianyue has seen through the marshal's roundabout tactics. Dieshe also admires Lin Jianyue a little.
The scouts had already passed through the valley. They had experienced them and found many ambush marks, but they did not see the army.
As an experienced leading general, Dishiha hesitated. How to pass this valley is a difficult problem. If you want to detour it too far, you will lose your suddenness.
Dieshe decided to divide the troops into two front and back teams, and set a distance of several miles apart, with the front teams of 10,000 and the back teams of 15,000. With the attack power of his own cavalry, if there are not many ambushing troops, they will definitely break through in one fell swoop. If it is a brigade, he can also respond. This is the safest way. Dieshe bet that Lin Jianyue has not come to him, so it should be to slow down his movement speed.
Shortly after Diesha entered the valley road, he received news that more than 20,000 heavy infantry had already fought with the front team. The front team was able to attack at full speed and failed to break the formation. There were no cavalry, but the infantry did not defend on the spot, but were attacking and advancing.
Dieshe hesitated. This was Lin Jianyue's most elite guards' first army. The speed in the valley road could not be increased, and there was a front team blocking it. So he prepared to order the entire army to withdraw from the valley road for the time being.
But the time has been missed, and Lin Jianyue has led 23,000 cavalry to come from behind.
The Qiexue army was indeed strong, reacted very quickly, and did not panic. When encountering ambush, they were still attacked from front and back, and were still fearless. The individual individual soldiers were indeed strong, and they were even more advantageous after forming a queue. Moreover, the equipment standard was very good, with long and short weapons, attacking and defensive weapons, which was very different from ordinary Hu cavalry. However, no matter how strong it was, under such terrain, there was no speed and attacking from front and back, and there was no chance to detour the whole team around, and the troops could not be expanded. He suffered heavy casualties under the full-speed impact of Lin Jianyue's cavalry.
Lin Jianyue was not very happy to see the remaining thousands of Hu cavalrymen who were leaving. Even so, he still suffered a lot of casualties, especially Liu Hesheng's heavy infantry, with nearly 10,000 casualties, which appeared during the first time he fought. It really made 25,000 Qiexue troops all rushed up in the open area. Lin Jianyue felt that Liu Hesheng might not be able to withstand it. He was also surprised. It turned out that his cavalry was so strong, even stronger than ordinary Hu cavalry, especially his 3,000 guards cavalry.
