Chapter 160: Ji Rong attacks the camp, inside the Jin army’s account
"When does eldest brother think they will attack the city?" Shen Tang asked.
Looking at the Jin army encamped in the distance for a moment, Bian Xi slowly replied, "The Jin soldiers are coming from far away, and the camp is not stable. I think we have to wait until tomorrow!"
Shen Tang nodded, while Bian Xi ordered his soldiers to rest as much as possible! Once the war begins, no one knows how long this offensive and defensive war will last.
Thirty to fifty miles southwest of the Jin Bing camp! Ji Rong led the Zaoyang Army's five thousand cavalry Chen Bing with them.
"Report!"
A pawn came quickly, "General! The golden soldiers have camped ten miles south of Lingbi City!"
"Okay!" Ji Rong sneered and asked a general next to him: "Are you ready?"
"It's all ready!"
"Hey!" Ji Rong looked at the soldiers behind him and shouted loudly: "My sons, our goal in this battle is to attract the attention of the golden soldiers as much as possible. It doesn't matter how many golden soldiers we can kill. The most important thing is to It disturbs their peace."
"Hmm... what did Mr. Shen say? Yes! When the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy is stationed, we harass; when the enemy is tired, we attack; when the enemy retreats, we pursue! You bastards, please remember this. As long as we let the golden soldiers get into chaos, we will We win. If we want to fight to the death, we have plenty of opportunities! Do you understand? If that bastard drags his feet and loses his life, I will not feel sorry for you, but will call you a bastard for disrespecting military orders!"
"Now, listen to my order! Five miles away from the enemy camp! Let's go!"
"Hoo, ho, ho..."
Three thousand cavalry galloped on horseback, following Ji Rong towards the Jinbing camp.
Yes, for Ji Rong's cavalry, in addition to discussing some tactics with him, Shen Tang's most important thing was to describe the great strategy inherited from a certain great man to Ji Rong in great detail. This is natural. It can't kill many enemy soldiers, but it can greatly affect the energy of the Jin soldiers. Moreover, Jirong has five thousand cavalry under his command. If the Jin soldiers want to pursue them, sending too many will naturally affect the attack on Lingbi. But if we don’t have enough pie, I’m afraid the meat buns will beat the dogs and never come back.
Therefore, as long as it can disturb the golden soldiers and make them have trouble sleeping and eating, it is enough.
Within the Jin Bing tent, unlike other Jin people, the commander of the Jin Bing this time was actually quite elegant.
The commander of the Jin army who led the army this time was named Wu Lin Damu. He had a strong interest in Han culture since he was a child. Therefore, even though he is now the commander-in-chief of an army, he still retains the Han Confucian dress.
"The people stationed at Lingbi are actually the Suizhou Zaoyang Army?" Around him, there were several Jin soldiers and several staff. What was even more surprising was that among these staff were people from the Song Dynasty. exist.
A member of Wanhu nodded, "Not bad!"
Wulin Damu smiled slightly, "I have told that idiot Ula long ago not to underestimate the Song people! Although the Song people's military prowess cannot be compared with that of our Jin people, their wisdom cannot be underestimated. Unfortunately, that The fool didn't listen to what I said. Not only did he lose nearly ten thousand soldiers and horses in the Tongbai Mountain area, but his own head was even used by General Song to claim credit! It has completely embarrassed me, the Jin people."
"Commander, there is no need to mention that Ula is useless. This Zaoyang army can defeat Ula, but it is vulnerable in front of the commander! Early tomorrow morning, I will lead my troops to attack the city, and I will definitely defeat that army. Take off the head of the commander-in-chief of the Song Army and present it to your Excellency."
However, when Wulin Dumu heard the words, he shook his head slightly, and his face showed a somewhat dignified look.
"This Zaoyang Army is well-deserved! We have been hiding all the way here. It is impossible for them to know our arrival in advance. However, you see that the fortifications of Lingbi City are extremely strong! My Jin soldiers are good at field battles, but not good at attacking cities. Although
We are fully prepared this time, but I am afraid it will take a bloody battle to capture Lingbi City."
"Fortunately, the people who were stationed here were not too stupid! For the convenience of my golden soldiers and cavalry, they actually filled in the wide moat. Otherwise, just the moat would have required our subordinates to fill it in with their lives.
." Wu Lin said with a smile.
"Kill, kill, kill..."
Suddenly, shouts of killing came suddenly.
Everyone present was stunned, and Wu Lin replied, "Why don't you go and see what happened?"
Not long after, someone came to report.
"Sir! There are thousands of Song troops south of my camp, and they are all cavalry! They attacked our camp, but they were discovered by Lord Wugu. Lord Wugu sent three to four thousand soldiers and horses to fight, but the Song
The army collapsed at the first contact and fled immediately. Now, Lord Wugu asks the commander for instructions, should we continue to pursue him or what?"
"Three or four thousand cavalry?" Wu Lin frowned. After thinking for a moment, he said to the soldier: "Tell Wu Gu not to pursue, but to guard against their surprise attacks!"
The soldier went to return his orders, but Wu Lin answered the crowd and asked, "Where do you think these thousands of cavalry came from? Is it a coincidence or was the Song army prepared for it?"
"I think it's a coincidence! Then Song Jun is not a god, how could he know about our arrival and even make arrangements in advance?" said a Jin general.
However, a Song staff member wearing a blue Confucian shirt stroked his horned beard and said, "Zhang doesn't think so!"
This person’s surname is Zhang Mingqing’s name! Originally, Zhang Qing’s father was a servant in Wulin Damu’s family. However, Wulin Damu was interested in Chinese culture, so he had a good relationship with Zhang Qing. Later, Wulin Damu took control
With the army, Zhang Qing became his staff and was highly valued by him. Even the weight of the golden generals was slightly inferior to Zhang Qing's.
"Oh? What did Yin Zhi say?" Wulin Damu asked immediately.
"As the commander-in-chief said, this Zaoyang army is indeed extraordinary. Not only is the city well-defended, but it also has many trenches to block horses to prevent our cavalry from attacking. So, in this case, he is likely to have been prepared. As long as they have enough
With the strength of the troops, it is impossible to form a formation to garrison the Lingbi, so dividing the troops is naturally the best choice."
"Moreover, in the last battle at Tongbai Mountain, our Jin soldiers abandoned a lot of horses. After all, only the Zaoyang army has enough horses to form a cavalry of several thousand people."
"If this is the case, things may be in trouble." Zhang Yinzhi said slowly.
"What's the trouble?" A Jin general said in displeasure, "We have only 30,000 cavalry out of only 5,000 cavalry. We only need a few thousand to defeat them!"
Zhang Yinzhi was not annoyed, but simply said: "Of course I believe that the general is brave, but what if the Song army does not fight with my cavalry? There are thousands of cavalry, no more and no less. Do we have to spend a lot of troops?
Will the power keep chasing them?"
The golden general was speechless, and Wu Lin answered quickly and asked: "Yin Zhi, if this is really the case, how should we deal with it?"
Zhang Qing smiled bitterly and said, "Commander, this Song army is using conspiracy. There is no other way to seal it at the moment. We don't need to worry too much. It's just a few thousand cavalry. We'll wait to find out their purpose."
