Linhe Route Army, Zhang Nan failed to make a sneak attack, was defeated, and was almost made dumplings by the Jin army. Only one or two out of ten of the 20,000 troops who left the army fled back, but Zhang Nan and deputy general Wen Zhongyue were all intact. Peaceful Years
Military generals who have ascended to high positions may really be just "talking on paper", but unless they really have a big background, the rest of them are at least outstanding in martial arts. This is the case with Zhang Nan and Wen Zhongyue, who just fought on the battlefield.
A bloody road led the remaining soldiers to escape.
However, along with the "defense line" near the water, let's call it the defense line, the Jin army broke through in many places. Zhang Nan was defeated for a while, and when the remaining army fled back to Yongxing City, the initial total of 80,000 people
There were only less than 30,000 troops left. But he was still lucky. The other army of the Song Army on the northern front, with a strength of 70,000, only managed to escape back to 10,000, and the main general also died in the formation.
At present, in the half of Kaizhou territory north of Yongxing City, the King of Song only has 50,000 soldiers from Yongxing City. The rest are completely insignificant and scattered soldiers, and there is no hope at all.
Now that the war has started, even the King of Song himself is extremely disappointed. He never expected that the northern army would be defeated so quickly and so miserably. The southern battlefield, which has always been at a disadvantage, is still holding on. Then the Northern Han Dynasty 'invited'
The generals also sent out several good news!
Everything was over. At this time, the Song King only wanted to use the solid Yongxing City to teach the Jin army an unforgettable lesson. Could the southern front army, which had a glimmer of hope, defeat Pei Lun's 200,000-strong army and then rescue Yongxing?
King Song had a very clear answer in his heart - impossible.
…
Zhang Nan and Wen Zhongyue are still busy commanding and dispatching at the top of the city. The iron pot is used to boil water and boil gold juice. It is a very important item among the many defensive tools prepared on the city. The Song army will be on the four walls.
On top, a pot platform is built every fifth crenel.
Although neither golden juice nor boiling water can kill a person immediately, it can be endured by being scalded. No matter how brave you are, as long as you are not made of steel and cast into a ladle of boiling water, you will still be able to rest with your skin and flesh torn apart.
Of course, part of this is used for cooking oil. When the fire oil is gone, you have to rely on this. Hot oil burns more easily than cold oil. Pour it in a ladle and then connect it with a fire arrow. This is the best way to deal with enemy attacks.
The main means of city equipment is much stronger than relying solely on fire arrows.
Fortress stones and rolling logs are naturally not lacking in Yongxing City.
There are so many vacant houses waiting for them to be ‘demolition’, and they can get as many stones and rolling wood as they want.
The reason why there are so many "dangerous buildings and illegal constructions" in Yongxing City is not because a considerable number of the soldiers and civilians in the city have a serious lack of confidence in the King of Song. Especially the merchants and officials, there are definitely a lot of them.
They had escaped from Yongxing City long before the Jin army besieged the city. This was a very obvious slap in Jikang's face. The BOSS was angry and gave the order - 'Snatch'!
Therefore, at the top of the Yongxing City, there are piles of rolling logs and stones placed under every crenel, and the walls are piled more than ten feet high.
In addition to preparations at the top of the city, Zhang Nan also buried vats of water at the base of the city wall, setting one up five feet away. It was not to quench the thirst of the soldiers, nor to prevent fire, but to prevent the Jin army.
Digging the earth and digging tunnels.
Water is the softest thing in the material world. Once someone is doing work below, the vibration will definitely cause ripples in the water tank.
In addition to the iron hook, Qing tube, wolf fang slap, etc., it is all miscellaneous. Anyway, Zhang Nan has made everything imaginable.
Wen Zhongyue was a dark-faced general. Although his name was very elegant, due to the increased exposure to the sun, he was already dark and rosy.
As one of Zhang Nan's generals, he is the commander of the west city of Yongxing City.
Looking at a group of Prince's Army cavalry blocking the road, Liu Zhuo's expression remained unchanged, without any fear, "I am the military envoy of the Song Army, and I am here to see your general."
The flags of the Song Army have long been known to the Sentinel Cavalry. Not to mention the flags, the uniforms worn by the one hundred elite soldiers who accompanied Liu Zhuo were very clear. Although the main body is already purple, the outer appearance is very clear.
Embroidered with yellow edge.
Seeing Liu Zhuo's posture, the leader of the sentry cavalry naturally did not dare to neglect him. While giving way, he sent people and horses to reward Gao Ming.
"Military envoy?"
Fully half a day later than expected, Pei Lun arrived at Gaoming with his army at noon on the second day of the Battle of Lingjiao Lake. Pei Lun was stunned. Why did the Song army send envoys at this time? But he couldn't help but see this man, and his demeanor couldn't be worse.
, he represented the imperial court. He asked his personal followers to inform several major generals and join the army. Pei Lun, full of doubts, returned to the back room to change his formal clothes.
The guards' military uniforms have been replaced by civilian clothes. Not to mention, E Guan is elegant and elegant, and Liu Zhuo really has that style.
Liu Zhuo is a good talker, and although he is not very accomplished in military strategy, he is more than enough to complete the tasks set out in the letter of challenge!
Zhu Biao wanted to write a letter of challenge to Pei Lun, agreeing on a time and place, and trying to determine the outcome of the battle.
The beautiful battle won at Lingjiao Lake certainly greatly improved the morale and cohesion of the Song Army. However, Zhu Biao understood that there was still a big gap in strength between himself and the Prince's Army.
If there is no gauntlet, the troops of both sides will come back and forth, attacking in the east and in the west, and playing tricks. Zhu Biao really has no confidence that he can control the prince's army. But with the constraints of the gauntlet, a head-on battle, relying on the morale he had previously inspired, Zhu Biao
Biao is more sure. And most importantly, the time is fast.
Anyway, Zhu Biao now believes that the winning rate of the head-on battle in Hengye is based on strategizing and calculation. He has greater confidence and will continue to work hard to turn the false fire raised in the Lingjiao Lake battle into a real one.
Victory light.
Therefore, the gauntlet must be issued. Zhu Biao looked at his army, trying to find someone who was eloquent, sharp-tongued and cunning. While issuing the gauntlet, he also flirted with Pei Lun.
It was really not easy. After several calculations, Liu Zhuo was the most suitable.
"Who is your Excellency? Why do you come to our army?" Pei Lun looked at the scribes in the hall coldly, his eyes flashed, he is good at martial arts. He asked in a cold voice, his face as cold as ice.
"My Excellency, Liu Zhuo, I have nothing to do with you this time. I am here just to issue a letter of challenge." Liu Zhuo took out a letter from his sleeve. Naturally, there was Pei Lun's personal entourage next to him, who took it and handed it to
Pei Lun.
"War letter?" Pei Lun's eyes flashed with incredible surprise.
Did Zhu Biao really think that the Battle of Lingjiao Lake was the true performance of his own army? Or did he not take his own army seriously at all after that battle?
Pei Lun sent back more than 80,000 soldiers and horses. Although two formations were seriously damaged, there were still 60,000 troops. Together with the Song army in Gaoming County, the number was close to 70,000.
Zhu Biao is now brazen enough to declare a challenge to himself? His face was stunned, which was really unexpected and ridiculous for Pei Lun... He took it over and took a look, "Zhu Biao, the general of the Northern Han Dynasty, sent a false statement to General Ning Shuo.
Pei Lun: A man who is a general does not seek to be as immovable as a mountain, and does not expect to be as unpredictable as yin and yang; he does not understand the smoothness of geography, does not plan to observe the expected meeting of the formation, and does not need to predict the shortcomings and lengths of the enemy's troops.
Only seeking for the sake of the country and the people will be remembered in history.
However, you are an uneducated person who rebels against the laws of heaven and heaven, and helps the traitors who usurp the country, and turn things into chaos. Huo Gang disrupts the government, ruins the lives of people, and even causes the world to suffer, the people to suffer, and the infamy will be left behind...
That is to say, tomorrow will be brilliant, at exactly the right hour, the army will meet the dragon and the tiger to decide the winner!"
A puppet dynasty and a traitor who usurped the country, Pei Lun looked at him with a sullen look on his face. He took a fierce look at Liu Zhuo, who was calm and still had a smile on his lips, and handed the letter of challenge to his general, Bian Liang.
group.
From Bian Liangqun to Xia Guogang, the last one passed into the hands of Hou Shiping. This general, who was born with a bad temper, became furious. He pointed at Liu Zhuo and cursed: "What a courageous dog, how dare you slander the Holy Majesty, General?
Why not have someone drag him down and beat him to death with sticks?"
"General Hou Hou, calm down, don't forget the great gift: the two armies are engaged in battle and will not kill the envoy." Bian Liangqun, Xia Guogang and the guards in the tent all glared at Liu Zhuo fiercely. They wished their eyes could turn into piercing eyes.
The sharp sword pricked Liu Zhuo's whole body into a hornet's nest. But there was always a smile on the corner of Liu Zhuo's mouth, which made people unable to see a trace of fear. It even felt like a touch of ridicule no matter how he looked at it.
"The prince has overseen the country for a long time and has been favored by the late emperor. He inherited the throne after the death of the late emperor. He has a legitimate name and is the ruler of the world. He administers the country and supervises the government, fulfills his duties and works conscientiously. How can I allow you, a traitor, to lie to you?"
Slander." Pei Lun didn't want to waste more words, but he couldn't do it without wasting words like this. No matter what he said, he had to show his boss's face. "To revitalize the Zhou Dynasty and appease the people, the emperor's ambition is lofty and magnificent. I can only hate you.
Those traitors and traitors who cause chaos for no reason, have wild ambitions, do not know the fate of heaven, and are responsible for the people should be destroyed! I will go back and tell Zhu Biao that he will repent and change his ways as soon as possible, and he will be reborn. Today, the Holy One is kind and kind, and I miss you.
A little merit will save you from waiting for death!"
"Hahaha——" Liu Zhuo looked up to the sky and laughed for a long time, pointing at Pei Lun and trembling with his body, "Pei Lun, Pei Lun, you have such a sharp mouth. The false emperor has no kindness, no power, no power.
, brothers are not to be treated, how can anyone be safe for themselves? Although the emperor's dragon body was not in good health, his life was worry-free, so why did he die so early? It was all the fault of the false emperor. You and your grandfathers and forefathers, who lived in the world for a long time, did not want to repay the favor.
Wouldn't it be shameful to support usurpation?"
Looking at everyone in the tent with arrogant and contemptuous eyes, Liu Zhuo did not wait for others to answer, and shouted loudly: "Tomorrow's battle, you and I will fight to the death." But he was trying to prevent himself from saying these angry words.
This really made Pei Lun and the others so angry that they cut themselves off without thinking, or cut off their noses and ears.
Liu Zhuo then said "Death", which put an end to the argument just now.
Pei Lun smiled coldly, "You dirty boy, you are a cowardless person. Go back and tell Zhu Biao that in the battle tomorrow, I will behead him. You can't even think of escaping. When death comes, I will look at your mouth." Or not?” This was already a promise and a challenge.
Liu Zhuo smiled without a trace of shame on his face and said, "Don't worry, General Pei. Tomorrow, at midnight outside Gaoming City, our army will definitely come." After saying this, he bowed his hands and saluted, "With the declaration of war, a certain family will withdraw." (To be completed.) Continued.
