Eight hundred and fortieth chapters thousands of miles to the military plane
In November of the fifth year of Yuanwu.
Within the territory of Lu State.
Looking at Tian Yan who was sitting there, Zhu Biao really had nothing to say. He had to obey the orders of the King of Tang. He had just arrived in Lu State, and before the rest was over, he had to quickly return to the Central Plains and kill Bozhou directly.
On the battlefield...
Tian Yan looked a little depressed. He looked down upon Cang Haijun, Chen Kui, who was aiding Qilu from the north, but Zhu Biao made his eyes completely shine.
Because judging from his experience and ability, this is completely the rhythm of a famous general in history! It is not impossible to follow such a person and make yourself a mark in history!
Tian Yan, who joined the sect, relied on his outstanding ability and absolute understanding of Dongyu, as well as his innocent family background, to be quickly taken into Zhu Biao's account and became a soldier, becoming his soldier in the battle against Dongyu.
Wizard.
But now...
"No need to apologize to Zhu Shuai. If the army can conquer the east corner and restore Tian Yan's hometown, it is naturally the best. If not, then forget it." With a faint smile on his face, Tian Yan continued: "I am not as good as Zhu Shuai.
Temperament. The current king of Qi killed his brother and imprisoned his father, and he also loved a villain. He was licentious and unworthy of a human being. Tian Yan swore not to obey his subordinates, so he joined the commander-in-chief.
Now that the commander-in-chief has been ordered to go south, Tian Yan is willing to attach the tail fin and follow him in front and behind."
The King of Jin did more than Ji Yun. Generally speaking, the current King of Qi is a complete scumbag. Of course, this does not mean that Ji Yun is a good bird!
It can only be said that ‘the strongest among the strongest, the stronger among the strongest, and every mountain is higher than the next’.
Zhu Biao smiled happily. He thought Tian Yan would go back to Qi State or join Chen Kui's army. "Okay, okay!" He was extremely happy.
A strong man with 80 morals, 85 character, 88 wisdom, 70 literature and 73 politics. Who in his right mind would be willing to let go? Zhu Biao, who is strong in martial arts and weak in literature, is even more eager for it.
"So, please join the army and go to Bozhou first!"
Zhu Biao did not ask Tian Yan to quickly ascertain every detail of the entire Bozhou battlefield after arriving in Bozhou. He only needed to find out the general situation.
No matter how loyal a general is, he will not report every detail on the battlefield to his superiors. Zhu Biao got the information from the envoys of the King of Tang, which was definitely different from the real battlefield situation.
Furthermore, he also hoped that Tian Yan could help him establish relationships after arriving in Bozhou first.
Whether it's the military or the civil service, if Zhu Biao wants to make a difference in the Bozhou battlefield, these two local snakes don't need to be really close. But they can't have conflicts either.
Moreover, after he entered the Bozhou battlefield, he was still a "guest minister" and was not subject to the constraints of Shi Yuan and Shangguan Renqing, the chief and deputy generals of the Tang Army in Bozhou. Therefore, how the two sides could unite and cooperate in fighting required someone to communicate with him.
Bozhou is not Cangzhou. The army there is a direct descendant of the Tang king and cannot be compared with Chen Kui. The crisis of the same situation cannot be compared with Cangzhou. Zhu Biao cannot use up his manpower and horsepower on the road like he did when he rushed to Cangzhou.
After arriving at the place, he rested for ten and a half days. He needed to maintain good manpower and horsepower on the road. After arriving at Bozhou, he took a breather and immediately jumped into the fighting.
He needs a closer connection with the Bozhou Tang Army than Chen Kui's Cangzhou Army!
Tian Yan's literature and art points are as high as 70. Although he lost in military strategy, his etiquette and speech are absolutely not a problem. He is also smart and good-natured. It is really difficult to find someone in Zhu Biao's army who is more suitable to be the 'foreign minister' than him.
"Today, I invite you to join the army. I have the heart to lose my humerus. I didn't want to join the army. Such kindness makes me overjoyed." When Zhu Biao moved here, he did not intend for Tian Yan to go to Bozhou, because he did not expect that Tian Yan would continue to stay with him.
Under the account, this chance is too slim. And if Tian Yan wants to leave after this conversation, Bozhou will be like that. He will only let Dou Bing lead people over there to explore in secret. Others, if they encounter
Let’s talk about it later.
Because in his entire army, except Tian Yan, no one else was suitable for this task.
Zhang Bennan?
No. He needs to stay in the army to take care of logistics and counsel military aircraft.
Tian Yan's unexpected choice was the key to Zhu Biao changing his mind. And Tian Yan himself readily accepted this task!
November 27, Anshi County, Tanzhou.
The sky is thousands of miles wide, and white clouds are like waves rising from the sea, dotting the blue sky.
It's a nice sunny and cold weather.
The four gates of Anshi City were tightly closed, and the Tang-character military flags on the city tower were flying in the air, as if they were about to ride away in the wind. The war flags of various colors stretched out their vigorous postures in the wind, and the huge roars merged into waves.
It surged in from everywhere and hit the sky above the city violently.
The city walls were crowded with people, including solemn-looking officials, panic-stricken city guards, and frightened civilians. Everyone stared out of the city with their eyes wide open and their mouths open.
"Woo..." The desolate and majestic horn sounded, like a bolt of lightning suddenly piercing the sky, followed by thunder and thunder, and the sky and the earth changed color in shock.
The people on the city tower exclaimed in unison, and a feeling of panic instantly enveloped the city, which was swinging between the Tang and Zhou Dynasties.
“Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo [nestucking] horns became denser and louder, rising and falling one after another. In the blink of an eye, they drowned out all the sounds on the earth, and shot straight into the sky with endless murderous intent.
Outside the city is a sea of people, a sea of war horses, a sea of flags, a sea of blood and terror.
An army of 150,000 cavalrymen, each with 10,000 cavalry and three horses per man, formed a dense cavalry formation, stretching from the plain outside the city to the distant horizon. It was boundless and could not be seen to the end.
Even though there was still a little bit of warmth in the winter, I couldn't stand the murderous aura of the 150,000 cavalrymen, so I hid in the clouds holding my head.
The war horses were galloping, and the earth was groaning helplessly under the trampling of iron hooves. The tall walls of Anshi City and the fearful people became weak under the sharp edge of the cavalry army, like a kitten with its claws pulled out.
, curled up on the side, shaking and whimpering.
The prefect Yang Qi stood on the city tower, holding the cold city wall with both hands, his thin body trembling slightly as the city tower moved, and the expression in his eyes was very complicated.
There was excitement, panic, sadness, helplessness, worry, and a hint of melancholy. The officials at all levels of the county and city standing beside him showed no panic after the initial shock.
There was no discussion. They seemed to have not yet awakened from the extreme fright. They all stared blankly at the overwhelming army outside the city.
The huge roar coming from outside the city and the bursts of shouts coming from under the city wall attracted fear and curiosity from the people in the city who were unable to climb the city. As for the people and guards on the top of the city, there was no longer the leader.
There was a rush of competition and crowding, and everyone looked at this unprecedented scene with pale faces.
The rumored Beiyu Cavalry, the rumored Zhu Biao, suddenly appeared in Tanzhou. Appeared outside the shaken city of Anshi County.
The number of the Han cavalry wearing red tabards was obviously smaller than that of the Zhou cavalry wearing the familiar purple tabards among the cavalry group, but their momentum, sharpness, and neat formation made the latter outnumbered by the former in large numbers.
The 150,000 cavalry cannot be resisted by the 30,000 soldiers of Anshi County. If they have other intentions, the 150,000 cavalry will roar all the way like a flood that bursts its embankment. It will rush towards Anshi in a mighty way.
Everything in Shijun.
However, with the deafening roar, the cavalry army crossed Anshi County without incident. The smoke and dust rolled into the sky enveloped the city and obscured the entire sky. However, they did not fire a single arrow towards the city.
It's like a strong wind coming from the northeast, howling all the way!
In mid-December, at dusk on the first day, the cavalry army arrived at Jinpi Town.
Tian Yan, who had been waiting there early, led Dou Bing and others to meet them. He reported the battle situation on the front line at this moment, "General, the Zhou army is in Baigou, and the two counties of Ansu are launching a full-scale attack. The Tang Dynasty's army is tilted too far towards the east and west wings.
Chong. The entire Bozhou has only more than 500,000 troops.
Chengbo is trapped and impassable. Since the fall of Dushan, the land route has been blocked for two months. Now 300,000 troops are scattered among the three counties on the northern front and in the rear. There is a serious shortage of troops. Each county is surrounded by danger and is in urgent need of retreat."
"Urgently tell General Shangguan that I have led my cavalry to Jinpi Town. The deployment will be completed in the early morning. Please ask him to evacuate Ansu in the early morning of the next day according to the planned strategy." Zhu Biao turned around and ordered his guards, "Urgently summon all the ministries and commanders.
General of the army, go to the Central Army immediately to discuss matters."
The dark curtain is approaching quietly. In the temporary tent of the Chinese army, the lights are brightly lit.
Tian Yan stood in front of the map and drew a line with his right hand between Jinpi Town and Ansu County on the map. "There is a distance of seventy miles between Jinpi Town and Ansu County. I am fifteen
The army of ten thousand will deploy 100,000 cavalry on the front of Jinpi Town. The remaining 50,000 cavalry and 40,000 will be arrayed on the left and right wings of the battlefield. Ten thousand cavalry will be deployed every ten miles to maintain the strong attack power of the front of the army. The last ten thousand
As a reserve force for the main army, it will pick up General Shangguan's troops and then give the pursuing Zhou army a heavy blow as a deterrent."
The arrival of 150,000 cavalry. This is not ancient China. There are too many communication methods to prevent the news from leaking. The Zhou army must have known about the arrival of Zhu Biao’s army. But the Zhou army will definitely pursue Shangguan Renqing. After all, in Zhou
On the frontal battlefield of the Tang Dynasty, they were always the victors.
"The Zhou army that attacked Ansu numbered more than 200,000, and was led by Xiang Zhenkui, the number one general under Dang Shikui. This man has a brave personality, but is not reckless. He has made many military exploits in the past few years, and he is not conceited at all.
If you are proud of yourself, if you can defeat it in one battle, you can intimidate the Zhou army."
"The 200,000 Zhou army and our 150,000 cavalry can be easily defeated. Gentlemen, you need to kill more -"
The S-level cavalry unit has increased. The current Zhu Biao cavalry is even more powerful than the peak combat power of the Hedong Army. This is his reward after killing King Chiguo and completing the S-level revenge mission.
It is no longer a soldier talisman fragment, but directly an S-level promotion talisman.
Among the cavalry, navy and long soldiers, he did not hesitate to choose the cavalry, which had the highest proficiency and was already close to sixty.
Zhu Biao is already twenty-eight years old. He has fought for many years and used cavalry many times before he has grown his military proficiency to 58. He has less than two years left before he turns thirty, so he has no confidence.
Before the age of thirty, the cavalry will be trained to the point where it will be automatically promoted.
Fortunately, the Hu tribe has "disappeared", and the Di tribe is no longer what it used to be. If nothing unexpected happens, he can still complete the remaining S-level mission in the system column before he is thirty years old, and then add new troops to his army.
An S-class.
Zhu Biao was extremely confident, and all the generals agreed. Zhu Wu and below were also extremely confident.
…
Ansu County.
In the early morning, the horse galloped into the city.
Zhu Biaoshu informed Shangguan Renqing that his 150,000 cavalry had entered the predetermined position, and the troops and horses in the city could retreat.
As for why Zhu Biao led his cavalry to directly defeat the Xiang Zhenkui tribe in this battle and break the siege of Ansu. More than 200,000 infantry and cavalry troops camped in groups, and the infantry and cavalry troops broke out of the camp and came to chase them. Yes.
Very different.
Moreover, Zhu Biao didn't care about the gains and losses of Ansu County at all. Previously, in Daizhou and Haizhou, he fought on the move and divided them at an extraordinary speed. That was the real use of his cavalry army.
The Tang army had few soldiers, and the battle line had to become longer and longer under the extended attack of the Zhou army. No matter what, it was a trap that had to be caught. Simply throw away some cities and get rid of the trap.
When Tian Yan came to Bozhou, Zhu Biao wrote a letter to Shangguan Renqing, which clearly expressed his attitude.
Save the land and lose the people, the people and the land will not survive; save the people and lose the land, both the people and the land will survive!
The Red Party's strategy back then was still very instructive when its own side was weak.
Now the Zhou army is just like the party-state back then. The more territory it occupies, the more dispersed its troops are. After all, Bozhou is one of the old territories of the Tang Dynasty, and its management is deep. It is not comparable to other territories. If you don't leave a certain amount of troops,
There were many soldiers and horses guarding the area. Maybe there was a battle going on in front, but there was a fire behind them.
The document told Shangguan Renqing that when retreating, it is necessary to alert the Zhou army and lure the Zhou army to pursue. It is best to be bitten by the Zhou army yourself. You must not let the Zhou army "stand still" or open too much distance between the front and rear.
distance, in that case Zhu Biao would be unable to complete the planned attack due to some of his previous deficiencies.
Shangguan Renqing was overjoyed and ordered Gong Rui and other generals to lead their armies to withdraw from Ansu County one by one in the early morning. He also emphatically ordered all ministries not to withdraw too fast, but to let the Zhou army feel the movement in the city and allow the Zhou army to catch up.
.
As expected, Xiang Zhenkui did not let go of the opportunity. Knowing that 150,000 cavalry were on his side, he also led his troops in pursuit.
The Tang army in Ansu County was soon unable to withstand it. It was okay when the soldiers and horses defended the city. Such a retreat, abandoning the city and fleeing, was very damaging to morale. As for the arrival of 150,000 Zhu Biao cavalry, it was impossible to report the news to the whole country.
Soldier.
After a fierce attack by the Zhou army, the Tang army at the rear was defeated. Shangguan Renqing's face twitched, and without saying a word, he led his army to retreat.
These are all in vain!
Xiang Zhenkui and others then launched a pursuit.
The Tang army, which numbered less than 100,000, was pursued fiercely by the Zhou army, which was three times smaller, and was defeated all the way.
Gong Rui took the lead in leading the troops to retreat to Shiting Town. After joining up with a group of defeated Tang soldiers, he fought desperately to stop them in Shiting. But at this moment, the Zhou army had been defeated by successive victories. The morale of the entire army was greatly boosted, and the momentum of the attack was strong.
Each wave was getting higher and higher. Even Shangguan Renqing's Chinese army couldn't resist it and retreated across the board.
Xiang Zhenkui continued to lead the troops in pursuit. Of course, he also told his generals that even during the pursuit, the various departments should maintain close contact. Once the Beiyu cavalry was discovered, they would quickly lead their respective armies to gather closer to form an offensive and defensive formation.
Strengthen the battle formation to guard against the attack of Zhu Biao's cavalry army.
Cheng Xiaofeng's troops were the fastest in pursuit. He led all cavalry, and was one of the most elite cavalry in the Great Zhou Dynasty - the Forbidden Army's Iron Cavalry.
The war horse is a first-class rod, and its speed is naturally very fast.
As a descendant of the Wuhou Mansion in Tianjing, he was incompatible with all the rebels, and naturally hated the Tang army who was the first to take the lead. At this moment, he saw that Shangguan Renqing's troops, who had always been a coward and made his cavalry useless, fled with their heads in their arms.
He was so excited that the military governor kept chasing after him.
Xiang Zhenkui saw that Cheng Xiaofeng was planning to "overtake" and intercept, and was afraid that he would be attacked by Zhu Biao's cavalry. He was also worried that the 10,000 Forbidden Army cavalry would be counterattacked by the Tang army after losing the protection of the army, so he urgently ordered Xin Jia and Hou Sheng
The second general led 20,000 cavalry to catch up.
After the Battle of Dushan, Xinjia and Hou Sheng pursued Gong Rui's remnant army. They were all severely beaten by the Northern Xinjiang cavalry under Shangguan Renqing, so they were extremely cautious. Although they followed Xiang Zhenkui's order and rushed forward quickly
, but always keep a certain distance from Cheng Xiaofeng’s group and do not get together.
After retreating from Shitingli, Gong Rui, who had traveled less than ten miles, received the report from the scouts and immediately ordered the remaining troops to stop and turn around to meet Cheng Xiaofeng's cavalry.
They were all in a rout, so they couldn't let the Zhou army's cavalry attack them. The two armies met on a narrow road and fought hand-to-hand. Twenty to thirty thousand people fought fiercely in an open field.
When Cheng Xiaofeng saw Gong Rui's battle flag from a distance, he sneered again and again. He led his five hundred bodyguards like a long, roaring arrow, and shot hard at the loose and chaotic center of the Tang army. Wherever it went, he was invincible to those who stood in his way.
The soldiers of the Imperial Guard cavalry saw that their general was taking the lead, and they themselves were unstoppable. Their morale was like a rainbow, and they moved forward bravely.
As for Gong Rui, of course he recognized who the Zhou army was fighting. He had held a grudge against Cheng Xiaofeng for a long time and was burning with anger.
The sky was getting brighter, and he could see the distance clearly. Gong Rui now saw Cheng Xiaofeng leading his troops to break into his formation. As if he was in a deserted land, his men fell one after another, with broken limbs and arms.
The heads were flying in the air, jumping in the wind. He became furious, raised his gun and shouted, "Kill... kill them, follow me to kill them, kill them..."
Gong Rui took the lead and rushed into the enemy formation. His spear was like lightning and he picked off two cavalrymen. "Kill me, charge me -"
The soldiers shouted loudly and swarmed forward, "Kill Cheng Xiaofeng, kill him..."
After the Battle of Dushan, Gong Rui's soldiers also remembered Cheng Xiaofeng freshly and hated him deeply.
"Death -" Cheng Xiaofeng roared, the spear struck down like a knife, and a bloody head rose into the sky. Gong Rui flew up on horseback, and the spear screamed and pierced the door.
Cheng Xiaofeng did not dodge, and only punched out quickly when the spear head was stabbed in front of him, smashing the spear head. He shook the spear with his right hand and stabbed downwards. Gong Rui sat down and the front legs of the war horse immediately separated from the body. The war horse flew away.
Screaming in agony, he fell to the ground. Gong Rui leaned forward, knowing that his beloved horse was finished. He roared angrily, hit the horse's back with one palm, and flew into the air. At the same time, the spear in his hand swept downwards at an incredible speed.
