Chapter 153 The army is drawn out and stationed in Lingbi
Chapter 153: The army sets off and enters Lingbi
The dignified soldier of the Song Dynasty actually secretly attacked a weak woman whose family was ruined. No matter what the reason was, it was embarrassing. For Shen Tang, with the hatred of robbing his wife, it was extremely unreasonable to attack the Japanese military general today. Normal.
Just think about it, which bloody man would not be angry at the enemy who secretly targets his wife?
"Hehe..." Bian Xi smiled coldly, "Don't worry, little brother, your matter is naturally also my matter, big brother. The Lieyang Army is in Xiangyang, and after we return to Suizhou, we will naturally have time to teach him a lesson. And this The Japanese army is chasing them in the North. Although it is not suitable to stir up disputes in the current war, it is not difficult to find an opportunity to teach them a lesson."
"Before, they only bullied you when you were weak. Now that you have two brothers, I want to see who else dares to bully you!"
In the Zhang Mansion, after listening to the old housekeeper's reply, Zhang Jun frowned for a moment and suddenly chuckled, "A tiger on the battlefield and a dragon in the north are willing to sworn sworn relatives with such a little guy! It seems that I have underestimated this. The little guy. And the Japanese-chasing army! Only when tigers and wolves are fighting will they show their most ferocious side. In this case..."
After pondering for a moment, Zhang Jun suddenly said: "I have been told, general, to order Bian Xi of the Zaoyang army to go north to guard the Lingbi! It is reported that Ding Chengzhi, the Japanese army, has returned to garrison in Hong County! I want to see if this wolf and tiger can show their true colors. What kind of drama..."...
Only one day later, Bian Xi received a military order from the Zhang Mansion, ordering the Zaoyang Army to march north and temporarily garrison Lingbi.
When the military order came, Bian Xi naturally did not dare to delay! Xin Qiji had already returned to the camp. Shen Tang and Bian Xi hurried to Xin Qiji's camp. The three brothers discussed it, and Shen Tang and Bian Xi returned again to rectify the army. Food and grass to prepare for the journey north.
Although the Zaoyang Army suffered heavy losses in the battle at Tongbai Mountain. However, not only did the Wuwei Army directly merge in, but after arriving in Huainan, Bian Xi and Jirong recruited a group of soldiers, which increased the number of soldiers of the Zaoyang Army. Once again the crowd reached fifteen thousand people.
Now, Ji Rong is no longer the commander-in-chief of the Wuwei Army, but has become Bian Xi's deputy general. Although he is not as comfortable as when he was the Wuwei Army, his authority is not small. In addition, Ji Rong is naturally prone to fighting, so Not only was there no dissatisfaction, but there was also a bit of joy.
Just like now, Bian Xi directly handed over all the five thousand cavalry in the Zaoyang army to the command of Ji Rong. These five thousand cavalry were much more powerful than the original three thousand stationed infantry.
Ji Rong was a little surprised to see Shen Tang in the camp. At first, outside Tongbai Mountain, Shen Tang's bravery and courage made Ji Rong admire him very much. Although he is now a student, Ji Rong does not I didn't look down upon him at all.
After a busy day, the army was reorganized! In the early morning of the next day, the mighty Zaoyang army set off and headed towards Lingbi in the north.
Ji Rong led two thousand soldiers and horses as the vanguard and explored the road twenty miles in front of the army. Bian Xi, on the other hand, sat in the main tent of the Chinese army and led the army to move slowly. Within dozens of miles around the army, he explored the road and found out the way. There is no need to mention the secret sentry. With a veteran in the army like Bian Xi, there will naturally be no omissions.
In addition to the 15,000-strong army, there are also 8,000 auxiliary soldiers accompanying them! These auxiliary soldiers are not very effective in combat, but they are convenient for transporting food and grass and cooperating with the entire army during a war.
Lingbi and Hongxian were originally on the edge of Sizhou, so they were only a few hundred miles away. The army moved quickly and rested for a night before arriving outside Sizhou City the next day!
"General!"
Ji Rong, who entered the city first, quickly returned with anger that could not be concealed on his face.
"General Ji, what's wrong? What's the situation in the city?" Bian Xi asked.
Ji Rong gritted his teeth and said, "Huh, the Taiping Army that was stationed here had already evacuated at noon, leaving only hundreds of auxiliary soldiers waiting for our arrival. However, there is not a grain of food in the city now, and all the defensive equipment is gone.
Sweep them all away! Please give the general an order to let the last general go and teach them a lesson. The Taiping army is just infantry, and they can travel a hundred or ten miles in half a day. The last general can lead a thousand cavalry and stop them in an hour...
"
When Bian Xi heard this, a look of anger flashed across his face. The behavior of the inaction army was really abhorrent. It was okay to take away food and the like, but what was the point of taking away the city defense equipment? Could it be that along the way,
Do they still have a city to defend?
"Forget it, the food and grass we brought this time is enough. Let's write this down first. When we have the opportunity, we must teach them a lesson!" Bian Xi said calmly.
Hearing this, Jirong nodded bitterly and rode away again.
"Brother, why did the Wuwei Army do this?" Shen Tang was a little surprised. After all, this offended the Zaoyang Army to death.
Bian Xi sneered, "Third brother, the Taiping Army General Ning Guangcheng and the Japanese Army Ding Chengzhi are from the same hometown! Now, we are guarding Lingbi, and the Japanese Army returns to guard Hong County. If it doesn't cause us some trouble, it is not Ding Chengzhi."
His nature."
The mighty army marched into Lingbi City!
Lingbi is made of many rocks and is as precious as green, so it is named Lingbi! However, the Lingbi City in front of you has no sense of beauty!
Lingbi City is not that big. It originally belonged to a small county. The entire city is only two or three miles square. The bluestone walls are covered with traces of war, and the black dried blood stains almost cover the entire city.
The color of the original bluestone was all covered up. The city was more like a huge barracks than a city. Who among the people of Lingbi would continue to stay here after the previous war?
Therefore, after the war between the Song and Jin Dynasties, except for some young men who were captured by the Song and Jin Dynasties, all the others fled. Now, the Lingbi itself is an empty city.
Most of the original buildings disappeared after the war, and even those that still remain are mostly dilapidated and even still emitting black smoke! The mottled bluestone streets and alleys have long lost their original appearance, showing patches of cracks.
.
Naturally, there were a group of sergeants setting up the camp so Bian Xi didn't need to worry about it, but Shen Tang followed Bian Xi directly into the Chinese army tent that Ji Rong had set up in advance!
After traveling north for two days, except for the soldiers who stayed behind to guard the city, everyone else naturally rested separately. In the early morning of the second day, Jirong and more than ten other Zaoyang army generals, Ya generals, and Pi generals gathered at
In the big tent of the army.
The Song army had three thousand soldiers as partial generals, five thousand as tooth generals, and ten thousand as support generals.
However, the actual situation is slightly different! For example, the partial general of the Japanese army that Shen Tang met before had only a thousand soldiers under his command. As for General Ya, the situation was similar. However, General Pi was a slight exception.
