The following is true
To be honest, Zhao Hongrun doesn't like the current situation in Daliang.
As the Wei family in Longxi defected to the Wei State a while ago, and Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, returned to Daliang, there seemed to be some undercurrents in Daliang of the Wei State.
First, the Wei family in Longxi secretly joined forces with Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang, and publicly expressed their support for Zhao Hongrun's fifth prince brother, Qing Wang Zhao Hongxin, in the Zichen Palace. Then the Emperor of Wei began to make secret moves, allowing the sixth prince Zhao Yuanli to break into the clan and evacuate the original clan.
Zongzheng Zhao Yuanyan of the government later took advantage of the victory in the crusade against Chu to expand the Shangshui Army and Yanling Army under Zhao Hongrun to 50,000 respectively. Now he asked Zhao Hongrun to quietly arm the Dredging Army.
Each of these things seemed like two strong arms wrestling with each other.
As an unrelated person, although Zhao Hongrun got some advantages from it, to be honest, he didn't like the atmosphere in Daliang at the moment.
If he had a choice, he would prefer Daliang three years ago. At that time, his Wei State was invaded by Xiong Tuo, the king of Yangcheng, and Xiong Wu, the king of Guling. South Korea was also eyeing the northern frontier, and the country was in crisis.
At first glance, the imperial court showed unprecedented unity.
At that time, King Yan Zhao Hongjiang resolutely gave up the fight for the throne and went to Shanyang in person to guard the northern gate for Wei. Zhao Hongzhao, the brother of the Sixth Prince, did not hesitate to go to Qi as a hostage in exchange for Qi's support for Wei and Korea.
The containment between the two countries of Chu.
When Zhao Hongrun led his army to defeat Xiong Tuo, the Lord of Yangcheng, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Husbandry, and the Ministry of Industry also put aside their prejudices and provided strong support, and Zhao Hongrun finally defeated Xiong Tuo, the Lord of Yangcheng.
The atmosphere in the court at that time was very good.
But three years later, the war between Hongli, the crown prince of the East Palace, and Hongyu, the Yong king, had become intense. Qing Wang Zhao Hongxin also jumped out not to be outdone. Together with the Wei family and Nan Liang Wang Zhao Yuanzuo, the situation in the DPRK became turbulent.
Even Emperor Wei began to secretly conspire in order to consolidate his power.
Zhao Hongrun really didn't like this kind of thing.
But if you don't like it, you don't like it. The current atmosphere in Daliang and the court is not something that even Zhao Hongrun can change.
The only thing he could do was to pay attention to the changes in the situation.
Speaking of the situation, Northern Xinjiang has been sending back the latest battle status one after another in recent days. Because Zhao Hongrun had informed the Ministry of War in advance, the Ministry of War made a copy and sent it to Prince Su's Mansion.
Today's northern Xinjiang is really complicated. It is filled with the Northern First Army of the Donggong Party and the Yongwang Party, the Northern Second Army of the Southern Liang King Zhao Yuanzuo, and the Northern Third Army dominated by the Wei family in Tianshui, plus the Yanwang Party.
The Shanyang Army, the Nanyan Army led by the Nanyan General Wei Mu, and the Wei Wu Army led by Shao Hu, the Chief of the Zongwei of Zhao Yuande, the former King of Yu.
In addition, there are also some cavalry from the Sichuan-Luo Alliance.
First of all, there was internal discord within the North Army. The East Palace Party and the Yongwang Party were restraining each other. However, because the commander of the North Army was Hongli, the prince of the East Palace, the Yongwang Party in the army was severely suppressed. Fortunately, the East Palace was hampered by the
The reaction of the DPRK and Central Government should not go too far, otherwise, I am afraid that the situation of the Yong Wang Party will be even more difficult.
As for the battle situation, the Northern First Army is currently stationed in the Anyi area in Hedong Province. It is said that they are trying every means to regain Quwo, but Zhao Hongrun is not optimistic about it.
Let’s talk about the Shanyang Army. The Shanyang battlefield in the eastern part of Hedong County should be regarded as the most intense battlefield in northern Xinjiang. It’s not that the Korean army’s offensive against Shanyang is more fierce than Anyi’s, but because the Shanyang Army
Affiliated to King Hongjiang of Yan, they worked together as one and launched counterattacks against the Korean army many times, thus angering the Korean army.
Fortunately, the Shanyang Army was adjacent to the Nanyan Army, and the general of the Nanyan Army was in charge of Mei (now Song) and assisted the King of Yan in promoting the territory many times.
Regrettably, Qi State is currently in civil strife. Qi State's Julu Navy, which originally threatened South Korea, was recalled to the country to support the civil war. As a result, South Korea's Handan County was no longer restrained as before and sent another army to attack Nanyan.
army, which put the Nanyan general Wei Mu into a difficult situation. He didn't know whether to continue to support Shanyang or focus on defending Qiyi.
As for Shaohu's 50,000 Wei Wujun, they were stationed in Wen and Heyang in the middle of Hedong County a while ago. It is said that they defeated a combination of Korean cavalry and infantry in Shaoqu and Yewang. They are currently leading their troops northward.
The front points directly to Tianmen Pass.
It has to be said that Shaohu's Wei Wujun is the Wei army with the most outstanding results on the battlefield in northern Xinjiang. The Daliang court and Chuigong Palace are also looking forward to General Shaohu's ability to recapture Tianmen Pass.
In addition to Shaohu's Wei Wujun, the second most successful warrior was the cavalry sent by the Sichuan-Luo Alliance to support them. This cavalry was active in the western part of Hedong County and harassed the Korean troops in Hedong County. It is no exaggeration to say that
The reason why the Northern First Army, which was suffering from serious internal strife, was still firmly guarding Anyi was that, in addition to Li Zheng, the president of the Three Guards Army, who was responsible for dispatching the troops, the Sichuan-Luo cavalry played an indispensable role.
Of course, this is the form before the Second and Third Northern Army launches an offensive.
In late August, the Southern Liang King Zhao Yuanzuo led the Northern Second Army to the eastern part of Hedong County, and the situation in Shanyang area suddenly changed.
Once upon a time, Zhao Hongrun thought that his military methods were bold enough, but after looking at the place where Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang, was attacking, he suddenly discovered that this third uncle was even more courageous than him.
Who would have thought that just when the Korean army was launching two-pronged offensives against Shanyang and Yiyi respectively, Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang, led his army directly to Zhongmu in the southwest of Handan County, South Korea, and unexpectedly surrounded the city with 50,000 troops, frightening the city.
South Korea immediately mobilized troops to support Zhongmou.
However, Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang, only made a feint at Zhongmu. He just showed his face and evacuated from Zhongmu. He attacked the Korean army that was attacking Qiyi from the side and cooperated with the Nanyan army to severely damage a Korean army.
But when the South Korean Handan Army mobilized its army to approach Juyi, they found that the king of Nanliang, Zhao Yuanzuo, had already made a circle and captured Linli, an under-defended city to the north of Zhongmu, forcing the Korean army to mobilize troops from Juyi again.
Blocking the road for Zhao Yuanji, the king of Southern Liang, to send his army north.
Zhao Hongrun had some idea of the tactics used by Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, which was the so-called rushing attack, in which the soldiers only carried a few days of rations, traveled day and night to a certain place, and launched an offensive there.
If the area can be captured, depending on the strength of one's own army, one can either garrison the city or set fire to the city, and then withdraw quickly without giving the enemy a chance to come back; if the sneak attack fails, the enemy will not forcefully attack the city and withdraw quickly.
In short, it is to search for the enemy's weak areas to attack, consume its troops, and not give the enemy a chance to counterattack.
But having said that, in general, to use this tactic, you must be familiar with the current strategic situation and be able to "read" the enemy's troop deployment like a mind reader. To put it bluntly, you need very keen battlefield intuition and excellent vision.
It is not a tactic that ordinary generals can use.
But on the other hand, this tactic has great limitations, especially when facing a country with a large number of cavalry like South Korea.
After all, no matter how fast the infantry runs, they are not as fast as the cavalry.
No, in just ten days, the Second Northern Army of the Southern Liang King Zhao Yuanzuo was caught by the Korean cavalry. However, in the end, the Second Northern Army ambushed the Korean cavalry in the Taihang Mountains to the west of Linlu, and won the great victory in Taihang.
.
This made Zhao Hongrun have to admire the third uncle's precise grasp of the battle situation, as if he had a bird's eye view of the overall situation, watching every move of the Korean team.
Compared with the Second Northern Army, the Third Northern Army led by Tianshui Wei general Jiang Bi, although their military exploits are currently not as good as those of Zhao Yuanzuo, the King of Southern Liang, the momentum of their advance is very fierce.
I remember that a while ago, the Wei army deployed in Wusui was in a stalemate with the Korean army occupying Wangluo. Even Li Zheng, the president of the Three Guards Army, was unable to capture Wangluo in a short time.
However, after Jiang Bi arrived in Wusui, he led the Northern Army to forcibly capture Wangluo.
Of course, this is just because the strength of the Korean army deployed in Wang'an is not as good as that of the three northern armies. It does not prove Jiang Bi's strategy or bravery. But then, Jiang Bi led his army to Quwo and devoted all his troops to the battle, which was very unsuccessful.
, then it means becoming benevolent.
In the end, even he himself went into battle and braved the rain of arrows to kill the leader of the Korean team on the spot. It can be said that he became famous in one battle.
In the several battles that followed, Jiang Bi showed such bravery that even the Korean army was afraid of him. He did not even test him. He would fight to the death as soon as the fight started. Either you die or I die. Who can stand this kind of madman?
After a few battles, the Korean infantry almost walked around Jiang Bi, and only the cavalry dared to dangle in front of the Northern Army.
Of course, he just dared to dawdle, because Jiang Bi's countermeasures against the Korean cavalry were first to target the cavalry's horses, shoot the horses with bows and spears, chop off the horse's legs, and use all possible methods to scare the Korean light cavalry into not daring to attack easily.
The Three Northern Armies flying the flag of Wei General Jiang Bi.
In contrast, the Beiyi Army commanded by Prince Hongli of the East Palace was completely reduced to the background. Before they could figure out the tactics to conquer Quwo, Quwo was captured by Jiang Bi.
After that, the First Army of the North could only eat dust behind the Third Army of the North.
Zhao Hongrun really feels that whether there is a Northern Army or not, it really doesn't matter.
Of course, this is just Zhao Hongrun's prejudice. In fact, after receiving the assistance of Jiang Bi, a fierce general, the Northern Army led by Zhao Hongli, the prince of the East Palace, also began to exert force.
, Jiang Bi came forward to resist on his own, and the people from the East Palace Party beat the drowned dogs in the back, picked up things, and then shamelessly began to rob the city and land that Jiang Bi had conquered.
In general, with the participation of the Southern Liang kings Zhao Yuanzuo and Jiang Bi in the Northern Xinjiang battlefield, the Wei side gradually began to recover its disadvantage. After all, the gap in military strength between the two sides was there. What's more, Zhao Yuanzuo, Jiang Bi, Zhao Hongjiang, Wei Mu,
Shaohu, each one is a handsome man who can stand alone.
As for the Qin State, in September, the Qin State's army finally launched an offensive against the Wei State's territories, and the offensive was very fierce. It started with a two-pronged attack, attacking the western part of Hedong County along the way, and attacking Sanchuan along the way.
northwest part of the county.
Let’s not talk about Hedong County for the moment, but in the west of Sanchuan County, the Jie tribe began to fight with the Qin team.
However, the first battle was not optimistic. The Ubian tribe's army was defeated first. The tribe leader Cheralhe hurriedly moved the tribe's people and defected to the Sichuan-Luo Alliance. On the Jie tribe's side, the huge slave army encountered the Qin State's equally large number.
The tattooed army actually killed more than 40,000 slave soldiers in one day, and the blood stained the western grassland of Sanchuan red.
In late September, Sanchuan asked Wei for help.
The war between Qin and Wei started from this! (To be continued.)
