Zhang Xian thought he heard wrongly and said, "Shuai Yue, are you going to fight?"

"Yes, fight them all!"

"Shuai Yue, do you mean we will fight in Zhongshan and Hejian?" Wang Gui also thought he heard wrongly.

"That's what I mean."

At this time, even Niu Gao said: "Commander Yue, dividing the troops has its own advantages, but the enemy is the defender and is strong. In this case, dividing the troops is a taboo for military strategists."

Yue Fei is like a god in his military skills, why should he not be so childish?

Yue Fei said: "Fight whatever I say, not evenly divide the troops to fight. Have you heard the story of Tian Ji's horse racing?"

Zhang Jiefu, who joined the army, said: "Sun Tzu said: Now take the king's inferior horse and the other's superior horse, take the king's superior horse and the other's middle horse, take the king's middle horse and the other's lower horse. After three generations of galloping, Tian Ji won again and again.

, the death will win the king’s daughter.”

This is recorded in "Historical Records".

Yue Fei said: "Yes, that's the truth."

Niu Gao understood immediately: "Shuai Yue plans to use part of his troops to contain the main force in Zhongshan, and then use his elite to quickly attack Zhending and Hejian?"

When he said this, others suddenly understood.

"If we only attack Hejian, the main force of the Zhongshan Jin Army will definitely rush to help Hejian. Although Cangzhou will also rush to help us, the battlefield is compressed in Hejian and we lose room for maneuver." Yue Fei said.

"But the Jin people are famous for their cavalry." Zhang Xian said.

Yue Fei said: "When we fight against the Jin Kingdom, it is still the cavalry that determines the victory. In this case, from today on, we will fight cavalry against cavalry, so as to compete!"

Yue Fei was referring to the use of cavalry to determine victory or defeat. He was not talking about the tactical level, but the military strategic level.

At the tactical level, the cavalry can be defended by infantry armor, and the victory may not be impossible by using kamikaze to attack the horse's legs.

But tactical victory does not determine final victory.

In the long-term military confrontation between the two sides, the battle line will inevitably gradually widen. At that time, in the vast land of Hebei and Hedong, the two sides competed for depth and mobile and fast combat capabilities.

How to skillfully use the cavalry legion to attack the opponent at lightning speed, effectively pursue the enemy, and even penetrate deep into the enemy's territory.

All of these are required to become organized cavalry.

Niu Gao finally understood. Yue Fei wanted to widen the battle line, but he wanted to use the infantry corps to contain the main elite of the Zhongshan Jin Army, and then use his own elite to quickly attack the opponent's troops in Zhending Prefecture and Hejian Prefecture.

This is the principle of Tian Ji's horse racing.

Yue Fei added: "We have contacted local rebels in Zhending, Zhongshan, and Hejian. They can not only help us hold back the Jin army and win a short and precious time, but also help us provide rich intelligence. They are the best we can do this time.

One of the keys to winning!”

When everyone heard this, they all became energetic.

"Your Majesty!"

"The end is here!"

"I will give you 5,000 infantry, 2,000 cavalry, and 5,000 support troops and civilians. Come and attack Zhongshan!"

"The last general takes command!"

"I don't need you to take the initiative to attack, so be on the defensive. Use the cavalry to lure Wanyan Yinshuke and hold back his main force!" Yue Fei thought clearly, "Of course, you can claim to be a 30,000-strong army. Too much exaggeration will inevitably attract the enemy's attention.

If you doubt it, prepare more flags and pay attention to placing more flags during the march, so that the enemy will think that you are the main force of our army!"

"Don't worry, Commander Yue!" Wang Gui stood up and said decisively, "As long as the general is here, Wan Yan Yin Shu will never leave Zhongshan Mansion!"

This Wang Gui should not be underestimated. He is Yue Fei's closest confidant.

In history, many tough battles were fought by Wang Gui. He even contained the main forces such as Jin Wushu, buying valuable time for other branches of the Yue Family Army.

After all, he has followed Yue Fei for many years, and his combat command capabilities are very strong.

"Niugao!"

"The end is here!"

Yue Fei said: "Your cavalry are all veterans with rich experience. I will send you to attack the farthest Zhending Mansion. You go to Zhending Mansion to contact Kong Yan. You must meet him and propose your strategy. He will cooperate with you.

of!"

"You will eventually understand!"

"Zhang Xian!"

"The end is here!"

"You are more familiar with Hejian Mansion, so I need you to attack Hejian Mansion. I will only give you three thousand cavalry. You go to Hejian Mansion to contact Liang Xing. You may be more familiar with Liang Xing than me, so I need you.

Fight quickly in Hejian Mansion, so that the enemy can't figure out your whereabouts, and make the enemy mistakenly think that our divine warriors are everywhere!"

"The last general takes command!"

"The key to this battle lies in Zhending. In Hejian, I am temporarily stationed in Fucheng. I will contact Cangzhou Li Gang and Mr. Li Xianggong to weigh the overall situation. If the battle situation reaches a critical moment, I will support Wang Gui. In this way, Wan Yan Yin Shu can

I won’t leave at will!”

Everyone stood up.

"This battle is about Zhending. The people of Zhongshan and Hejian, as well as the rebels, have high hopes for us. We must not let them down!" Yue Fei clasped his fists, "I am willing to live and die with you!"

Everyone said in unison: "I will live up to Commander Yue's great trust!"

In this way, just as the Hedong battlefield entered a critical moment, the situation in Hebei suddenly changed with Yue Fei's decision.

It is true that the clouds follow the dragon and the wind follows the tiger.

The two famous generals of the Song Dynasty seemed to have a tacit understanding.

A war spanning thousands of miles is about to break out.

On the afternoon of May 28, Niu Gao's cavalry took the lead in taking action.

A total of six thousand cavalry were assembled outside Fucheng.

Each person has three war horses, which are as majestic and powerful as a rainbow.

In the evening, Niu Gao's front army crossed the North Branch of the Yellow River and entered Shenzhou.

At the same time, Wang Gui's 12,000-strong army also completed crossing the river at Beiwang Town, north of Fucheng, and quickly advanced towards Raoyang. His goal was Dingzhou City, the seat of Zhongshan Prefecture.

Crossing the river at the same place as Wang Gui was Zhang Xian's army on the right.

It can be seen from the time when the three armies gathered that Yue Fei's army has iron-like discipline!

On the afternoon of May 29, Wang Gui took the lead in launching an attack on Raoyang.

The number of Jin troops in Raoyang was not large, and Wang Gui easily captured Raoyang.

Raoyang can only be regarded as the outpost of Zhongshan Prefecture. News of the Song army's invasion was quickly sent from Raoyang to Dingzhou.

If Wang Gui was still making a small fuss, Zhang Xian's east-route army went straight into the hinterland of Hejian Prefecture on May 30th. Three thousand troops were divided into three groups, and they attacked them with the power of a raging cloud.

The Jin people carried out lightning strikes at multiple points here.

The Song army's sudden attack caught the Jin officials leading the Hejian Mansion unprepared.

Many former officials of the Song Dynasty who surrendered to the Jin Kingdom and served as officials in Hejian were beheaded.

Even the Jin soldiers stationed in some small counties were quickly defeated and eliminated.

Zhang Xian's three troops are expected to penetrate the entire Hejian Mansion within a few days.
Chapter completed!
