Liang Yi jumped away, looked at the arrow inserted into the vest of his fallen opponent, showed a tired smile to the grass, and then sat down on the ground. The knife also fell on the ground, touching several places.
The wound hurt so much that he grinned. "Brother Li, you're finally here."
There was a look of joy on his face that he had escaped death. Although he was embarrassed, he was no match for the other party. Liang Yi had to admit this.
A man aged twenty-four or five-year-old jumped up in the grass, holding a short, dark hand crossbow in his hand. He was the elder brother Li Liang Yi mentioned. His name was Li Jian, and he was from Yonglong, Kaizhou. He was twenty-five years old this year.
At the age of 18, he has been in the scout team for seven years. He is now the captain of the scout team and a military officer.
"Have you encountered a tough situation?" Li Jian quickly walked into Liang Yi's side. He was sure that there were no more enemies around him.
Liang Yi covered his left waist with the deepest wound, grinned and laughed at himself, "Hard stubble, absolutely tough stubble. I cut him four times, none of them were heavy. He cut me six times, and two of them were close."
It will cost me my life. If you come a little later, my life will be at stake."
As he spoke, Liang Yi took off a belt from his waist and handed it to Li Jian. There was nothing visible on the outside of the belt, but the small pocket was densely sewn on the inside.
Li Jian skillfully took out a small bag from one of the small pockets, opened it, and asked, "Did you find anything?"
"The Prince's Army moved to the northeast, and the seat is a little higher." Liang Yi pointed with his finger, and then endured the pain and took off his leather armor and shirt.
Li Jian couldn't help but smile on his face, "I did go to the Northeast." One-third of the scout team's manpower was arranged on that line. If the Prince's Army went there, nothing would be able to escape the eyes of his own people. As he said,
He sprinkled the white powder in the small bag finely on Liang Yi's six wounds, then put down the small bag and took out a roll of three-finger-wide cloth from the belt, and bandaged Liang Yi while smiling: "
Just because of this news, you won’t lose if you get stabbed twice more.”
After quickly bandaging Liang Yi's six wounds, Li Jian gave him a look, and quickly ran towards Lingyang Mountain with a single sword in hand. Although Liang Yi was 'thrown away', he was not surprised at all. He suffered
His injuries were serious, and he had to walk a little slower. In war, the fundamental purpose of having soldiers with the nature of scouts and scouts is to transmit every piece of news to the generals as quickly as possible.
When it was completely dark and the moon was bright in the sky, Li Jian, who had been running quickly for half an hour, finally arrived at the Song Army camp in Lingyang Mountain.
"Command the entire army to turn southwest immediately." Lu Tong's brows stretched and he immediately ordered.
As soon as his military order was issued, the Song army of 10,000 people immediately marched to the southwest. Among them, in addition to Lu Tong's headquarters of 6,000 people, were the troops of Jiao Ming and Wang Jiuling.
The two of them created such a big trap in Fanyu Mountain and Wei County. Naturally, Zhu Biao trusted them absolutely, and all the captured prisoners of the Prince's Army who were gathered together and those who were willing to surrender were incorporated into their hands.
Within a few days, the number of people and horses increased to more than 4,000.
And together with Lu Tong's battalion, this was the entire strength of the Song Army's partial division at Lanmei Mountain. When the army gathered in Lingyang Mountain, Lu Tong did not dare to hope that he would not be detected by Yao Fangqiong's scouts. He put himself in his shoes.
, if Lu Tong was Yao Fangqiong himself, he would not dare to risk marching in the mountains at night without checking clearly, and he might have to face an all-out attack from the enemy immediately after coming out of the mountain. Therefore, the most likely thing is that Yao Fangqiong led
The army turned around on the Yugu Road, bypassed their own troops, and approached Baicang City safely from the front.
Relying on the county seat, Yao Fangqiong's troops will be in an invincible position. At that time, whether the Song army attacks the city or directly follows the Yugu Road, they will be under the threat of Yao Fangqiong's troops.
Choose between northeast and northwest!
Lu Tong was happy to see Yao Fangqiong lead his troops to the northeast. That area was mostly plains, not as good as in the ravines. Although the room for maneuver after the Prince's Army was defeated in the mountains was narrow, Yao Fangqiong could still lead his men to flee into the mountains. Lu Tong
But there is not that much time to search the mountains and capture people in the ravines. Therefore, it is better to go to the plains. After the defeat, it is easier for the prince's army to escape and for his own army to catch people.
…
Qingpo is a good place. There is water and hills. Although the terrain is not as difficult and dangerous as the mountains, it is a good place in the plains.
In the vast area on the south side of Lingyang Mountain, Hongyu and Shitouping are similar in terrain to Qingpo, both of which have very good geographical advantages.
As for the scout team sent out by Lu Tong, there are also two armies, Jiao Ming's and Wang Jiuling's. The former's reconnaissance range and the latter two's own troops are deployed in Daying Town and Paishan, one in the north and one in the east. There is a faint picture.
A circle is formed, and the coefficients of Qingpo, Hongyu and Shitouping are all in it.
Not long after the Lutong headquarters received Li Jian's report, Jiao Ming from Daying Town and Wang Jiuling from Paishan also received the scout's message at almost the same time, saying that the Prince's Army had entered Qingpo. The two did not dare to sneer.
, immediately raised his troops and headed towards Qingpo to cover them up.
"Report——" A detective horse rushed into Qingpo. At that time, the prince's army camp had not yet been set up, but Yao Fangqiong's Chinese military tent had been set up in the center of the camp. "Report to the general, there is a Song Dynasty army to the north of our army."
When the army came to kill them, there were not many men and horses, only two or three thousand people."
Before the scouting cavalry had finished reporting the report, another cavalry galloped to the tent and dismounted, saying, "Report to the general, a Song army has arrived on the east side of our army. There are not many men and horses, less than three thousand."
people."
Yao Fangqiong raised his eyebrows when he heard this. What is Song Jun going to do? Is he going to fight at night?
However, when he heard that there were troops from the Song Dynasty on both sides of his army to the north and east, Yao Fangqiong also understood that his move had been anticipated by the Song general, and these two troops must have been arranged long ago.
But this doesn’t seem to change anything, does it? The two groups’ combined enemy forces only have four to five thousand soldiers and horses, so how can they touch their own army?
Yao Fangqiong came with troops from Yugu Road. He was stationed at Lanmei Mountain and held the rank of Zhonglang General. He was in charge of not only Lanmei Mountain, but also Yugu Road and Shehu Valley. Each of the three areas had 5,000 troops. Yugu
Dao soldiers and horses, together with Yao Fangqiong's generals who arrived at Lanmei Mountain, totaled 8,000 people. Naturally, they had enough confidence to resist the attack or harassment of the two Song armies, while quickly strengthening and building the camp. As long as the Song army arrived
If the camp is repaired before the main force arrives, everything will be fine.
When the troops returned to Baicang and Lanmei Mountain, not only Yao Fangqiong withdrew his army, but Pang Zigong also retreated to Shehu Valley. And when Yao Fangqiong raised his army to rush to Lanmei Mountain, Pang Zigong also led three thousand troops to garrison at Yugu Road.
At the same time, Yao Fangqiong also sent fast cavalry to report quickly to the prefect of Wugang County in Sizhou, his 'neighbor'. If something bad happens, soldiers and horses from Wugang County will soon come to aid Dongcheng. The two counties are also connected by official roads.
As long as we assemble good troops and horses, we can reach Xinghe County in three days at most.
Coupled with Yang Fu's 10,000 troops, the 20,000 troops in the county, and the garrisons in various counties, with such a large number, Yao Fangqiong did not think that Dongcheng County would really lose this battle. Although it was robbed by the Song army,
He took the lead, but that only proves that the Song general who commanded this army was good at finding loopholes and working on silent areas.
But strength is strength. Yao Fangqiong was full of confidence in his heart. After all, his own strength far exceeded that of his opponent!
"Chen Jing, Li Weiguo, each of you will lead two troops to the east and north to meet the enemy."
Chen Jing and Li Weiguo were the captains of the garrison at Lanmeishan and Yugudao, and they were also two of the three generals under Yao Fangqiong.
"The last general takes orders." Chen Jing and Li Weiguo each stepped forward to receive the order arrows, shouted with confidence, turned around and exited the Chinese army's tent.
"Wang Yue!" Yao Fangqiong called his military commander again, "Go and urge the officers and men in the camp to seize every quarter of an hour to build the camp, and be sure to improve the defense before the main force of the Song army arrives."
"No." Wang Yue Gong accepted the order with his hand.
In an instant, only Yao Fangqiong was left in the Chinese army tent. He looked down at the map and fixed his cold eyes on Xinghe County on the shore of Taoshui. From Bao Kanglai being detained to Governor Yang dispatching troops,
When the Song army unexpectedly crossed Mount Qishan, captured Fanyu Mountain and other places, and marched to the city gates, it was self-evident who Li Changjun was colluding with.
"One link after another, the Song Army really put in a lot of effort." From Fanyu Mountain to Wei County, and then to Xinghe County, step by step, one plan after another, he and others were completely unaware.
Under such circumstances, we fell headlong into the overall situation laid out by others. As a result, our own military strength clearly occupies an absolute advantage, but we are passive at every step and are led by the nose.
One careless move and the whole game is lost! Although the current situation in Dongcheng County is not completely defeated, in Yao Fangqiong's view, in terms of the battle strategy, his side has already been completely defeated, and there is nothing left to lose.
.
Now they can only rely on their own military superiority, but Yao Fangqiong knows very well that when the situation in a region falls to the point where it is necessary to rely on military superiority to overturn the situation, it is announcing to everyone that he will take charge of this region.
Those who fought the war have been completely defeated!
A complete failure in strategic battle situation and tactics.
If you want to completely defeat this offensive that defeated the Song army, your own army must gather as much strength as possible. In fact, it is not a good move for Yang Fu to lead his army back to the county city as a hindsight. There are still 20,000 troops in the county city.
, enough to keep the county and city as stable as a mountain.
Compared with the county and city, it was Lanmei Mountain that really needed Yang Fu's 10,000 troops.
However, hindsight is hindsight. When Yang Fu led his troops back to the county seat, the urgent report from Lanmei Mountain had not reached them at all. By the time Yao Fangqiong received the news that Lanmei Mountain had fallen to the Song Army, he and the Song Army had already laid down hundreds of troops.
When the news came from the city, Yang Fu's 10,000 troops had already left.
I was wrong for most of the day.
Before that, Yao Fangqiong had been thinking about how to force Li Changjun to surrender and eliminate the stain on Xinghe County while ensuring Bao Kanglai's personal safety.
But looking at it now, it is obvious that it is best and most appropriate for Yang Fu's 10,000 troops to go north instead of turning back to the county.
In the final analysis, he still failed in terms of 'strategy'. How could he still take advantage of others' baton and step by step? It was more of a trap than anything else. Now, all he can do is rely on his overall strength to regain the situation.
