"PS: Today is my mother's 60th birthday, so I will release chapters in advance. Updates will be made when I return to Shanghai. Some book friends don't need to mention it again and again, I remember it."
————The following text————
In late March, a group of Qingya people came to report that the Korean troops in Ningyi and Ji County suddenly retreated in large numbers without warning and quickly retreated to Korea.
At the same time, in the Yuanyang and Nanyan areas south of the river, the anti-rebellion army under the command of Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang, also quickly crossed the river and assumed a posture of pursuing the Korean army.
At that time, Zhao Hongrun concluded that the Northern Third Army led by Wei general Jiang Bi most likely launched a sneak attack on Taiyuan County, Yanmen County and other places, forcing South Korea to withdraw its troops immediately.
Zhao Hongrun felt very uncomfortable about this.
The reason is very simple, because Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, secretly ordered Wei General Jiang Bi to sneak attack Taiyuan and Yanmen, which was enough to make South Korea withdraw its troops. This means that the "Battle of Ningyi" a few days ago was actually completely unnecessary - even if
Without this war, the Korean army would have to retreat.
It is undeniable that the "Battle of Ningyi" greatly increased Zhao Hongrun's reputation in Korea and made the name "Wei Gongzi Run" more resounding in the hearts of Koreans, making them more fearful and fearful. But in fact, Zhao Yuan, the king of Nanliang
In fact, Zuo had already taken control of the situation, and there was no need for him, Zhao Hongrun, to lead the Qin and Wei coalition forces to come to his aid.
No wonder Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang, replied unceremoniously: Mind your own business!
In comparison, he, Zhao Hongrun, and Han generals Li Mu and Le Yi were like fools. They all paid heavy casualties for a war that was already destined to be won or lost.
Maybe Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang, was still laughing at their stupidity secretly.
Of course, this does not mean that Zhao Hongrun, Han generals Li Mu, and Le Yi combined are not as good as Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang. After all, they are prepared and unprepared. How did Zhao Hongrun, Li Mu, and Le Yi know that Wei general Jiang Bi was actually there?
Will they cross the mountains in the northern part of Shangdang and attack the poorly defended Taiyuan County, Yanmen County and other places?
Compared with Zhao Hongrun, King Yan Zhao Hongjiang also had a strong dislike for Zhao Yuanzuo, King of Nanliang - of course not out of jealousy, but because through this incident, Zhao Hongjiang also saw clearly the ruthlessness of Zhao Yuanzuo, King of Nanliang.
It is undeniable that Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, retreated to Yuanyang and Nanyan south of the river, and let the political alliance Wei general Jiang Bi lead the Northern Army to sneak attack Taiyuan County and Yanmen County in South Korea. This was indeed a clever plan.
But in contrast, Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang, also abandoned Shanyang, treating Yan Wang Zhao Hongjiang, Yan Wangfei Sun, and tens of thousands of people in Shanyang as abandoned sons to achieve strategic victory.
If Zhao Hongrun had not led the Qin and Wei coalition forces to Shanyang in time, the tenacious resistance of Yan King Zhao Hongjiang and the soldiers and people of Shanyang in that city would have been meaningless.
Whether it is the Shanyang army, the Shanyang soldiers and civilians, or Yan Wang Zhao Hongjiang and his beloved women, they are all chess pieces on the chessboard of Nan Liang Wang Zhao Yuanzuo that can be discarded at will.
Although Yan Wang Zhao Hongjiang has a reckless personality, he is not stupid. When the truth of the matter is before his eyes, he will not understand.
"That's unreasonable!"
When he finally understood the ins and outs of the whole thing, King Yan Zhao Hongjiang angrily overturned the table in front of him, moving too much and almost tearing the wound.
One day later, Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang, led his troops to suppress the rebels across the river. At this time, the commander-in-chief of the Korean Army, Kang Gong Han Hu, had ordered the entire army to retreat. Therefore, the suppressing rebels recovered "Ji County" without any effort.
At the same time, the messenger sent by Nanliang King Zhao Yuanzuo to Shanyang also met with Yan King Zhao Hongjiang and Su King Zhao Hongjiang, saying: "The prince invites his two highnesses to jointly pursue the defeated Korean army."
What is this?
Provocation? Ridicule? Or ridicule?
At that time, the Yan King Zhao Hongjiang became so angry that he ignored the dissuasion of everyone on the side and kicked the messenger to the ground, yelling angrily: "Get out!"
At that time, the faces of everyone around were also ugly - what does Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang, mean? What is the merit of giving alms?
On the same day, the messenger returned to Ji County in embarrassment and reported to Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang.
Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, was not surprised that King Zhao Hongjiang of Yan and King Su of Su angrily refused to send troops to join him.
In fact, he did not sincerely invite Zhao Hongjiang and Zhao Hongrun brothers at all. The defeat of the Han army was irreversible. How could Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang, let these two nephews compete with him for credit?
So, he resorted to "retreating in order to advance" and used words to bully Zhao Hongjiang and Zhao Hongrun brothers. As expected, the young and energetic brothers Zhao Hongjiang and Zhao Hongrun couldn't stand it and rejected his "good intentions" on the spot.
Since there was no Zhao Hongjiang, the Zhao Hongrun brothers took the credit. Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang, led the anti-rebellion army and played a triumphant song all the way. They took advantage of the situation to regain "Jixian", "Gongdi" and "Linli". It was an overwhelming force.
However, there was an accident during this period. When the vanguard general "Meng Luo" under the command of Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, led his army to bypass Linlu Mountain and was about to attack Qi County, he was ambushed by Han general Beiyan Shouleyi for a while, and he lost about three to four thousand troops.
, which led to the counter-rebellion army's momentum to pursue the victory, but was also interrupted by Le Yi.
At this time, Zhao Hongrun, Qin Shaojun and Yangquan Jun Yingba were leading nearly 40,000 merchant navy troops, 3,000 iron eagle cavalry, and more than 5,000 tattooed troops to cross the river in Ningyi.
After learning that Meng Luo, the vanguard general of the anti-rebellion army, had been ambushed by Beiyan Shou Leyi for a while, although he knew the pros and cons in his heart, he still couldn't help but secretly curse: He deserves it!
In the following days, due to the warning that Wei general "Mengluo" was ambushed, the rebel army under the command of Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang, changed its previous anxious counterattack, and replaced it with general "Pang Huan" as the vanguard. They attacked steadily and gradually captured
"Qixian" and "Dangyin" show a strong intention to counterattack the Korean mainland.
Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, who had endured the humiliation for several months and his troops to suppress the rebels, were finally able to feel proud and defeat the Korean army.
It is not difficult to predict that after the "Third Battle of Northern Xinjiang between Wei and Han" is over, Southern Liang King Zhao Yuanzuo and Wei General Jiang Bi will surely become famous and become the biggest contributors to the Northern Xinjiang battlefield.
However, due to the vicious methods and scheming of the Southern Liang King Zhao Yuanzuo, not many people were destined to congratulate him.
On March 26, Zhao Hongrun led his army to Yuanyang and the Nanyan area, and met with Zhao Shen, King of Chengling, and Zhao Tan, Marquis of Anping.
These two princes were already members of the "King Su Party", so after learning that Zhao Hongrun had led his army to return to the mainland of Wei, they immediately came to greet him.
That night, at the reception banquet hosted by Chengling King Zhao Shen and others for Zhao Hongrun and others, Chengling King Zhao Shen asked Zhao Hongrun puzzledly: "For some unknown reason, the Korean army evacuated in large numbers. Why didn't His Highness King Su lead his army to join the Nanliang King and take advantage of the victory?"
Pursuit?”
When Zhao Hongrun saw Chengling King Zhao Shen, Anping Hou Zhao Tan and others looking confused, he asked: "Don't you two know the plan of King Nanliang?"
Chengling King Zhao Shen, Anping Hou Zhao Tan and others looked at each other in confusion.
Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun told the strategy of Nanliang King Zhao Yuanzuo in detail to Chengling King Zhao Shen and Anping Hou Zhao Tan, but they only heard angry expressions on their faces.
It turned out that when Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang, sent his troops to counterattack, he did not notify the king of Chengling Zhao Shen and the Marquis of Anping Zhao Tan at all. So these two princes were afraid that the "Korean army suddenly retreated" was a trick, so they stopped and stayed still and continued to defend the original position.
In the Yang and Nanyan area, I never thought that I would miss the opportunity to gain merit for nothing.
"Zhao Yuanzuo is so unkind!"
After understanding the truth, Chengling King Zhao Shen and others were furious.
I think at the beginning, after the Nanliang King Zhao Yuanzuo retreated to Yuanyang in embarrassment, the Nanyan area, like the Chengling King Zhao Shen and the Anping Marquis Zhao Tan, gave him a lot of help, especially when Kang Gong Han Hu ordered his army to cross the river to attack Yuanyang.
In the Nanyan area, they also advanced and retreated together with the anti-rebellion army.
I never thought that Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, would treat them like this.
But think about it, Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang, is from the lineage of "King Qing Hongxin", while Zhao Shen, king of Chengling, and Zhao Tan, the Marquis of Anping, are from the lineage of "Hongrun, king of Su". Although the two should work together in the face of South Korea's attack,
After the crisis is over, how can the two sides be on the same page?
As we all know, the relationship between Su Wang Zhao Hongrun, Qing Wang Zhao Hongxin and Nan Liang Wang Zhao Yuanzuo was very bad.
Later, when he heard that Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang, regarded Shanyang as an abandoned son, Zhao Tan, the Marquis of Anping, also angrily said: Those who do unrighteousness will be killed! Zhao Yuanzuo will never die well in the future.
The next day, Zhao Hongrun bid farewell to Chengling King Zhao Shen, Anping Hou Zhao Tan and others, and led his army directly to Daliang with Qin Shaojun, Yangquan Jun Yingbo and others, preparing to assist his fifth uncle, King Yu Zhao Yuandai, on the battlefield in Song Dynasty.
However, what I didn't expect was that when Zhao Hongrun led his army to approach Daliang, the Green Crows who stayed behind in Daliang sent the battle report about the battlefield in Song Dynasty to Zhao Hongrun.
That day, because he was worried about the situation on the battlefield in Song Dynasty, Zhao Hongrun eagerly received the battle report and watched it carefully.
Unexpectedly, after a cursory glance, a strange expression appeared on his face.
Seeing this, Qin Shaojun frowned and asked, "Is it possible that the situation in the 'Battlefield of Song Dynasty' is unfavorable?"
Hearing this, Zongwei, King Suwei, and the generals of the Shangshui Army were all frightened. After all, on the battlefield in Song Dynasty, there was an army of one million led by Chu Shouling Jun Jingshe.
The threat level is not much lower than that of South Korea's military.
If King Yu and Zhao Yuanji were defeated, the consequences would be disastrous.
However, under everyone's frightened gaze, Zhao Hongrun revealed nothing and continued to carefully read the battle report in his hand.
According to the battle report, in early March, King Yu Zhao Yuandai led a northern army of 60,000 people to Yongqiu, as if preparing to fight Chu Shouling Jun's army of Chu, which was said to be one million.
Subsequently, during the period from early to mid-March, King Yu Zhao Yuanke adopted the "Wolf Pack Tactics" and led the "Sixty Thousand Northern First Army" to garrison Yongqiu, holding his troops stationary while letting "Shaohu", "Longji",
"Yi Gu" and "Zhao Bao", four generals from Zongwei background, each led their troops to sneak attacks and harass the "millions of Chu troops".
The millions of Chu troops under the command of Lord Shouling Jingshe of Chu were too huge, like a bloated giant. Although every punch he threw was very powerful, it was still in vain if he missed the target; on the other hand, the troops under the command of King Yu Zhao Yuanke were
The "pack of wolves" could tear off a piece of flesh and blood from this giant every time it was dispatched.
It has to be said that the strategic vision of King Yu Zhao Yuanji is no less than that of Zhao Yuanzuo, King of Nanliang. He clearly saw that the millions of Chu troops were in an awkward situation of running out of supplies after a whole winter. Therefore, he refused to fight with the Chu army.
Instead of a head-on confrontation, they led and launched a local battle, destroying the Chu army's food road transit points one by one, causing Shouling Jun Jingshe to suffer unspeakably.
On March 16, Shouling Junjingshe made a decisive decision and planned to launch an attack on Yongqiu.
Unexpectedly, King Yu Zhao Yuanji once again gave way to Yongqiu, allowing Shouling Jun Jingshe to hit the empty space again with his heavy blow.
In order to make Wei surrender as soon as possible, Lord Shouling Jingshe had no choice but to command hundreds of thousands of troops and set foot in the hilly plain area of "Yongqiu".
A trap carefully planned by the army.
At this time, King Yu Zhao Yuandai finally ordered all the Wei troops on the battlefield in Song Dynasty, including the Shangshui Youma heavy cavalry who came to support, to gather at Yongqiu from all directions and launch an encirclement and annihilation battle against hundreds of thousands of Chu troops.
