The Battle of Gubeikou prevented Pingzhou's reinforcements from entering the pass, thereby completing the first step of Zongze's strategy. The Jiuzhou in the mountains of Yanshan Prefecture can be said to have peace of mind, because with the fall of Gubeikou, the area northeast of Juyong Pass
The Great Wall is completely under the control of the Song Army. With the Great Wall here, it will be very difficult for the Jin Army to break through here. Of course, they can choose to go by land and water, but is this any different from committing suicide?
Liu Qi also became famous in one battle and took the most credit. This is something Zongze never expected. He still has to use that sentence to count the famous figures. Looking at the current era, this is an era where heroes are born in large numbers. +◆
As a result, the strategic center will all be concentrated in Yunzhou and Xinzhou.
The good news there spread to Yanshan Mansion like snowflakes. Zhao Kai and Li Qi almost fainted with happiness. The people were also extremely excited and asked to join the army to join the war or donate food to the army.
But Master Li, who is in charge of logistics, declined one by one. I have too much food here to eat. The ten years of reserves will really rot if not consumed. You should keep the food for yourself.
These are two completely opposite countries from the Song Dynasty ten years ago. Ten years ago, when the Song Dynasty sent troops to the Northern Expedition, they all went to people's homes to grab food. How many people starved to death? They fought for reserves. At that time,
The Song Dynasty was just fishing from the lake. How could it be possible to win a great victory? But now, when the people send food to the court, the court refuses it. It is conceivable what changes have taken place in the Song Dynasty in the past ten years. It can even be said that the reform is
The first success of this battle.
After Zongze heard how Liu Qi conquered Gubeikou, he stroked his beard and sighed: "I am so old, I didn't realize that there are such talents in the army."
Zhao Kai was so happy that he got such a good general at the beginning of the war. He laughed and said: "Zong Zhifu should not blame himself. Heroes have emerged in troubled times since ancient times. If the world is peaceful, talents like Liu Qi will not even have the opportunity to show their talents. Zong Zhifu
How did we discover it?" He said excitedly: "Now that Wuzhou has been captured by our army, Xinzhou is in our pocket. Once Juyongguan is breached, we will attack from both sides, and Gui and Ruzhou will not be a problem either.
.”
Not only was Zongze not happy at all, but he frowned.
Li Qi asked: "Prefect Zong, what are you thinking about?"
Zongze was startled and said: "The key to this battle is whether we can capture Yunzhou. If we can capture Yunzhou, then the rest of the four states will definitely be panicked. We can defeat it in one fell swoop. If Yunzhou is still there, the Jin army will
There is hope of a battle with us, but after these days, there is no news from Yunzhou, so I am a little worried about this."
This Yunzhou is the base camp of the Jin Kingdom in the Yanyun area. As long as Yunzhou is still there, the Jin soldiers can make a comeback at any time. Therefore, any victory is only temporary before Yunzhou is conquered.
Li Qi frowned and said: "What Zongzhifu said is that logically speaking, the elites of Yunzhou have followed Wanyan Zonghan on the expedition to Xixia. General Zhe Keqiu has an army of 50,000 along the way. Hunyuan County, Huanzhou, and Yingzhou are right there.
There are a large number of weapons and tanks stored in these places on the edge of Yunzhou. Even if Yunzhou's defense is strong, there should be a breakthrough."
Zhao Kai was also worried when he heard this, and simply said: "Instead of worrying here, why not go and see for yourself. Now that Gubeikou has been captured, and Liu Kai's army has also blocked the main passage of Juyong Pass, as long as we hold on to these two main
Passage, coupled with General Han's navy to contain it, it will be difficult for the Jin army to invade the territory. Yanshan Prefecture is worry-free. We can't do anything here, so we might as well rush to Yunzhou."
Li Qi looked slightly worried and said: "But the emperor doesn't have to go, how about I and Zong Zhifu go?"
Zongze also nodded in agreement, because the situation in Yunzhou is unknown, and it will definitely be risky for your emperor to go.
Zhao Kai only said: "I am here to lead the expedition myself, not to watch the battle. Then I might as well stay in Bianjing to handle government affairs."
As long as you know.
Li Qi murmured to himself, and looked at each other with Zong Ze, both looking helpless. They all knew Zhao Kai's temper. He was not a peaceful emperor, and he had been looking forward to this day for too long. You have to stop him.
He, he wouldn't have come here in the first place.
At this moment, Ma Qiao suddenly walked in quickly, clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, the Privy Council, Shi Niang and the others are here."
Oh dear, my ten niangs are here.
Li Qi said excitedly: "Where is she now?"
"Oh, I just entered the city, it should be quick now ---."
Before Ma Qiao finished speaking, Li Qi hurried out.
Zhao Kai rolled his eyes and cursed secretly, this guy really forgot about the emperor after having a woman. But this was Master Li's usual style, and he was used to it. He shook his head with a wry smile, and then walked out with Zong Ze.
Originally, Liu Yunxi was going to come up with Li Qi, but since penicillin still needed some time, Zhao Kai asked Liu Yunxi to stay in the capital first, and wait for the penicillin to come out, and then come up with the penicillin. Of course, there are many medical clinics.
But in this way, once Liu Yunxi arrives, the Song Army's endurance will definitely double.
"Shi Niang."
As soon as Li Qi came to the gate, he saw Liu Yunxi riding a horse, coming this way. He hadn't seen him for many days. He was so pure and beautiful, and he looked even more heroic while riding on the horse. He couldn't help shouting excitedly, and then
He ran over quickly.
"Husband."
Liu Yunxi was very excited when he saw Li Qi. He quickly got off his horse and the couple hugged each other tightly in front of the government office. They were both open-minded people and not worldly at all. Who stipulated that there should be no rules in front of the government office?
The quasi-person is in love.
On the other hand, the several government officials standing in front of the door looked a little embarrassed. Of course, it was possible that they were just pretending. After all, government officials could visit brothels nowadays, and these guys were not fledglings.
"Cough cough cough!"
Just when the two were eager to integrate each other into their bodies, several coughs came from behind.
Then everyone was heard shouting in unison: "I see you, the emperor. Long live the emperor. Long live the emperor."
The warm atmosphere was immediately broken.
What are you doing, you will die if you come out later! Li Qi reluctantly let go of Shi Niang, and quickly looked at Shi Niang with tender eyes. He saw that Shi Niang had not become thinner, and she was more plump, and her breasts were more straight.
I felt a lot more relieved.
In fact, this little journey is really not worth mentioning to Liu Yunxi.
But Liu Yunxi ignored Zhao Kai and held Li Qi's arm affectionately. He smiled sweetly and said, "Husband, have you missed me?"
"Of course, I'm almost going crazy thinking about it."
Master Li said this without even thinking about it, and his expression was very exaggerated. But as soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a light on his back, and hurriedly whispered: "We will talk about these later, let's meet the emperor first."
Liu Yunxi said "Oh", then took Li Qi's arm and stepped forward, bowed slightly and said, "People's daughter Liu Yunxi has met the emperor."
You couple really don't take me seriously. Zhao Kai is also helpless. After all, he also knows that Liu Yunxi has a weird personality. He nodded and said, "Let's talk about it after we go in."
With that said, he turned around and went in. When he was talking to Liu Yunxi, he really didn't dare to do it in public, because he knew that it would only make him lose face. But as long as Liu Yunxi did not violate his bottom line, on etiquette issues.
He would not get angry with Liu Yunxi either.
As soon as Zhao Kai turned around, Li Qi whispered: "Shi Niang, everything is okay at home."
Liu Yunxi nodded and said, "Everything is fine at home. Husband, you seem to have lost a lot of weight."
Good boy. It’s so touching! Master Li, who hadn’t talked to a woman for a long time, was so moved by Shiniang’s words that his eyes almost turned red. He thought to himself, when did I become as emotional as Ma Qiao? He sobbed and said, “I just want to
You think so, but don't worry, now that you are here, I will soon become as handsome as before."
Liu Yunxi had no ability to resist this, and her hug became tighter and tighter. If there weren't many people around, she would have taken the initiative to offer a sweet kiss.
This makes Master Li very sorry!
The two of them came to the front hall, talking softly, and then stopped.
Zhao Kai saw that Liu Yunxi had only Li Qi in his eyes since he came in. He and Zongze were like air, so he didn't bother to greet Liu Yunxi. Liu Yunxi wanted to greet him anyway, so he casually asked: "Shi Niang
, why did you arrive just now?"
Liu Yunxi was startled, then turned around and said very honestly: "Oh, Qiniang and Sister Feng are about to give birth. I came here after helping them deliver the baby."
When Li Qi heard this, he hurriedly asked: "You---what are you talking about, Qiniang and Yinu both have children?"
Liu Yunxi nodded and said: "Oh, by the way, I almost forgot to tell my husband that Qiniang and Sister Feng gave birth to a boy and a girl in two months. Qiniang gave birth to a boy, and Sister Feng gave birth to a girl.
"
Li Qi jumped up happily and said, "Really? Then mother and son are fine."
"Both mother and son are very safe."
"Thank God, thank God."
Li Qi's eyes were moist, and he asked hurriedly: "Who do they look like? Do they look more like me, or do they look more like Qiniangqin?"
"Boys seem to be more husband-like, while girls look more like Sister Feng."
Li Qi suddenly clapped his hands and said excitedly: "This is simply the perfect gene. The man is like me, handsome enough, and the woman is like Yinu, beautiful. Wow, I really admire myself."
"Privy Councilor, this is really gratifying and congratulatory."
Just as Li Qi was dancing excitedly, a lukewarm voice suddenly sounded from the side.
Oops, it seems that I was happy too early, damn, it’s over, it’s over. Li Qi was shocked and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, you have misunderstood, Shi Niang was just joking."
Liu Yunxi said innocently: "I'm not joking!"
Sweating! Hundreds of thousands of troops are fighting on the front line, waiting for you to heal their wounds. You actually said you would come after helping Qiniang and the others deliver the baby. Aren't you giving the emperor an excuse to get angry? Li Qi looked at Liu Yunxi depressedly,
Out of the corner of his eye, he secretly looked at Zhao Kai and saw that his face was already ashen. He could only say with heartache: "Shi Niang, husband, I always teach you that it is your duty to save the world's common people. You should rush over first to save lives and heal the wounded. Qiniang
Those are just small things, national affairs are big things."
But she said in her heart, Shi Niang, I'm so sorry, I'm blaming my wife, and it hurts my heart!
He knew that Zhao Kai would not get angry with Liu Yunxi, but would only get angry with him, so he shamelessly passed the responsibility away. After all, he was the Privy Council envoy, and Liu Yunxi was just a commoner.
Liu Yunxi frowned and said: "Husband, how can you question me? Of course I have a sense of propriety. I asked people to transport penicillin first. I immediately caught up with Qiniang and Sister Feng after delivering the baby. The schedule is similar.
It’s not too late.”
Nani, you didn't tell me earlier. Li Qi hurriedly defended: "I didn't question you, it's the emperor---."
"Um?"
Zhao Kai just hummed.
Okay, you are awesome! Li Qi laughed and said: "Misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding, that's all I'll say. This must be a misunderstanding."
But Liu Yunxi was already angry and looked at Li Qi displeased.
Li Qi was complaining in his heart. The ten niangs were so angry that it took them seven or eight days to coax them to come over.
Zhao Kai saw that the couple was talking to each other and didn't even have a chance to interrupt. Moreover, the military situation was urgent and he didn't bother to argue with them. This was already a thing of the past, so he said: "Okay, okay. I don't have any."
Who is to blame, Shiniang, where is the penicillin now?"
Liu Yunxi said calmly: "We have arrived at Yanshan Mansion."
Zhao Kai said: "Okay, you guys get ready, we will rush to Yunzhou immediately."
Liu Yunxi nodded slightly, turned around and went out.
Oops! Li Qi hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I'm going down to prepare too."
With that said, he hurriedly followed out.
After a while, I heard Master Li's voice faintly coming from outside the house. "Shi Niang, this is a misunderstanding. Please listen to my explanation. I am the emperor---uh..."
Zongze didn't come back to his senses for a long time. He laughed and said, "I never thought that the Privy Councilor would be so henpecked."
Zhao Kai smiled bitterly and said: "I am also a little afraid of his wife!"
...
...
Yunzhou!
The southeastern part of Yunzhou is open, but the northwest is high and dangerous. For the Han people, it is an extremely important strategic location whether it is to defend against the Huns or the nomads in the north. Now that Yunzhou is in the hands of the Jin Kingdom, it is difficult to defend
To the south, there is an open terrain, which is beneficial to the Jin Kingdom because the Jin Kingdom's cavalry is good at fighting on the plains, not on the trails northwest of Yunzhou.
Zhe Keqiu's army left Huanzhou, and because the distance was increased, they quickly reached the plain area southeast of Yunzhou.
Gao Qingyi, who was guarding Yunzhou, saw that the Song Dynasty had indeed declared war, and knew that he had fallen into a trap. Fortunately, he had been mentally prepared, so he was not caught off guard by the Song army. He also chose to take the initiative to attack instead of defending the city wall. However,
, after the tentative attack in the first round, he gradually became a little anxious. This was simply a torrent of steel.
Zhekeqiu's troops are mainly based on chariots. Together, there are more than 5,000 large and small chariots. The large chariots can carry 60 people, and the small chariots can also carry ten people. Five large chariots.
Chariots plus fifteen small chariots form a battalion, with chariot camps as units. A battalion has two thousand people and three hundred pushers. However, during a battle, the pushers immediately turn into infantry, which is also extremely dangerous.
With combat effectiveness, 600 heavy infantry followed the chariot, 700 archers, 400 spearmen, and were also equipped with war donkeys, camels and a small number of Dali horses to increase the marching speed.
There are a total of twenty battalions. There are detachments in the battalion. Two large tanks and six small tanks form a team. There is also a command vehicle. Each vehicle camp is equipped with a commander. This is to facilitate command. In addition, there are also
There are six thousand mobile troops, that is, cavalry.
The behavior formation is the camp.
Once these chariots stop, they become fortresses, which are equivalent to moving fortresses.
Gao Qingyi had been observing for a long time, and he really didn't know how to break the car formation, but he noticed a weakness of the Song Army, that is, slowness. How fast can you push such a big car, but it is beneficial to the Song Army.
On the one hand, it’s not that far from Yunzhou, so it doesn’t hurt to go slower.
When he could no longer think of a way to defeat the enemy, Gao Qingyi could only resort to harassment tactics to delay time. He sent 500 warriors to harass the Song army. These 500 cavalry began to circle around the Song army, fighting and retreating, and shooting the enemy with bows and arrows.
, but the Song Army had learned this move too many times, and had already prepared it, so they didn’t care about them at all, because the chariots were equipped with strong crossbows and bows, and there were enough of them. You must know that there is a weapon on the bottom of the chariot.
The dark layer is full of arrows. This design method can give the chariot enough and lasting attack capability. No matter how many arrows your cavalry can carry, I will put a whole cart of arrows here. You
How many people must die to exhaust this cart of arrows?
Therefore, when the Jin army came to harass, the Song army did not stop at all, and directly asked the soldiers on the chariot to shoot the enemy with powerful crossbows. Although it was mobile, it was definitely a perfect platform for the archers to attack the enemy.
The Jin army didn't dare to get close, because the crossbows on the chariots were all mechanized. They couldn't compare with human power, and they could shoot much farther than you. Every inch is longer and every inch is stronger. The Jin army could steal chickens but lose rice.
Zhe Keqiu's troops continued to approach Yunzhou without slowing down, and were about to hit Yunzhou City.
Gao Qingyi was also frowning. If he defended the city wall, once he was surrounded by the Song army, he would only be beaten passively. But if he didn't defend the city wall, he had no good way to take advantage of the opponent's chariot. You must know that he had a
With thousands of soldiers and horses, if you dare to act rashly, if the whole army is wiped out, it will be over.
At noon that day, Gao Qingyi was sitting in the tent to rest and think about countermeasures. Suddenly, a sentry came quickly to the tent and said: "Military advisors, everyone has sent a letter."
Even though Gao Qingyi was a Han, even Wanyan Zonghan respectfully called him sir. The two were close friends and had a close friendship. Therefore, the soldiers under Wanyan Zonghan respected Gao Qingyi very much and even called him military advisor according to the Han people's way of calling him.
When Gao Qingyi heard Zong Han's letter, he hurriedly said: "Give it to me quickly."
Gao Qingyi took the letter and hurriedly opened it and looked at it. The worry in his brows immediately dissipated and he smiled and said, "That's it."
After reading the letter, he immediately rushed all the soldiers to come to the meeting. After the soldiers arrived, he said: "Generals, I took a nap just now and had a dream."
The soldiers had strange expressions on their faces. The army is approaching. Do you need to tell us if you took a nap? We are very busy.
"Generals, don't be anxious, just listen to what I have to say." Gao Qingyi said with a smile, "I dreamed about Dutong."
As soon as these words came out, the generals cheered up and one of them asked: "What did they all say?"
Gao Qingyi said: "I first told the governor about the situation in Yunzhou and asked him if he would retreat to the city wall. The governor said that my Jurchens are all bloody men. There is no reason to defend the city wall. I would rather die on the battlefield.
Never be such a coward."
When these generals heard this, they all nodded in agreement. We are Jurchens born for war. We are always attacking and have never retreated.
Gao Qingyi added: "The commander-in-chief also said that the Southern Dynasty's chariots looked fierce, but in fact they were not. The chariots were extremely heavy and heavy, and wars are ever-changing. This is putting the cart before the horse. If our army dares to take the initiative to attack, we can use our cavalry to do so."
With our superiority, we will be able to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop, and even if we are defeated for a while, we can retreat unscathed, because it is impossible for the enemy's chariots to catch up with our horses, so we are in an invincible position, so why should we be afraid?"
One of the generals said: "Everyone is right, my Jurchen man has never been afraid of anyone."
Later, the generals asked for orders one after another, willing to be the vanguard generals and go to meet the enemy.
Gao Qingyi said with a smile: "Although the enemy's chariots are not scary, they are very large in number. If we only send a vanguard army, it will be difficult to achieve results. How about I send out the entire army and destroy the enemy in one fell swoop."
That's fine, everyone doesn't have to fight, just get along.
.......
.......
The Song army is still advancing slowly and gradually, using slow to defeat the fast. It cannot be too hasty. It is better to go slower and maintain the formation to avoid sudden attacks by the enemy. The Song army suffered too much in this regard in the past.
In the morning of this day, the army arrived at a wide Pingchuan area southeast of Datong Prefecture.
Zhe Keqiu saw that there was no boundary in the plain, and he could see everything at a glance, so he ordered the soldiers to be careful, but as soon as the order was given, he heard the cry getting louder in front, and saw thick dust billowing from the front.
The boundary of Yunzhou is high in the northwest and low in the southeast. The cavalry of the Jin army swooped down from the high ground very quickly and fiercely.
In an instant, the sound of killing shook the sky.
If this were the Song army in the past, they would have fled back when they saw this posture, because they didn't know how to fight the enemy's cavalry on this plain, but it was different now. There were chariots blocking the front, facing the Jin Dynasty.
The main force of the army came to attack. The Song army was not in a hurry. As soon as the chariot stopped, there were only a crowd of people. Soon the archers and spearmen got on the chariot. The infantry placed the carbine in front of the chariot. This carbine was a kind of human being.
The cross frame, the gun head facing the outside, and even the height are very strictly designed. When the tall war horse rushes up, the gun head must be facing the chest. It is specially used to prevent enemy cavalry from raiding and to target the Jin army.
Cavalry.
I saw that the soldiers of the Song Army did not panic at all, everything was in order, and the kung fu was ready at this moment, but it was the result of ten years of training.
The vehicles form a square formation, with four or two large tanks occupying the blind spot. There is a large tank in the middle. The commander of the battalion stands on it, and then fifteen small tanks surround it. A tank camp is a small square.
, several large car camps form a large square. At a glance, it is indestructible. It is so spectacular. Of course, this is all money. Like the Jin Kingdom, it is impossible for Xixia to have such a powerful car team. There are many reasons.
Simple, no money and no resources.
This is all played by tall, handsome and rich people.
Accompanied by a strange cry, the Jin army arrived in a blink of an eye, with ferocious looks on their faces. They were Jurchens with a strong body, but they were suppressed and beaten by the Song army during this period. It was really painful to hold in their breath.
When the three vanguards in front were a hundred steps away from the car formation, they suddenly turned around and ran parallel to the convoy. As they walked, the woman actually held a strong bow in her hand and fired wildly at the Song Army's convoy. Thousands of arrows enveloped it.
.
The Jin Kingdom has not yet been assimilated by the Han people, and whether it has assimilated or not mainly depends on the living style of the people. As we all know, the nomadic people make a living by hunting, but the Han people make a living by cultivating the land. The Jin Kingdom is still in the process of cultivating the land.
They lived too much, so the Jurchens at this time were naturally good at archery. If your archery skills were poor, you would starve to death, because they lived by hunting and hunted almost every day. They were used to shooting birds all over the world.
Shooting someone is so easy!
This is where the nomads are strong.
The frequency of archery is fast and accurate.
If this had been the case before, after these rounds of cavalry fire, the Song army would have been in chaos and suffered heavy losses.
But now......
