Chapter 1649 Crossing the Yellow River in the north, the sword hanging behind the Jin Kingdom
According to the battle report document, Li Jun, the leader in charge of the Boliang Shanshui Army, led the five naval divisions of Jinghai, Hengjiang, Qianlong, Fubo and Baihe to travel by sea. The ships were carried by the three armies of Jishan and
The Bohai Navy, the Hengzhang Army, as well as the remnants of the Liao people led by Da Libo, He Chongbao, and the Xi people led by Xiao Qian mobilized elite troops and horses to frequently land in the coastal areas of Tokyo Road and Nanjing Road in the rear of the Jin Kingdom to harass people.
, and also won several great victories in succession.
Originally selected by Xiao Tang, it is located at the mouth of the Yalu River, halfway between North Korea and Denglai, in the Liaodong region. The land-based fortress is well-defended and can transport soldiers, horses and grain on the water. At the same time, it communicates with Baozhou and other places.
The trend of becoming a horn has also exerted important strategic advantages.
Just for Pingzhou, Jizhou, Jinzhou, Ningzhou, Fuzhou, Muzhou and other state capitals near the sea in the Kingdom of Jin, the Junzhai County under the rule was successively harassed and attacked by the rebels who landed ashore, killing and injuring Jurchens and other tribes.
The number of attached soldiers and horses has reached about ten thousand, and a large amount of military supplies and food have been collected. They can only commit thieves for a thousand days, but there is no way to prevent thieves for a thousand days. When the Jin Dynasty invaded the Song Dynasty, it suffered successive losses on land, and the coastal defense force within the territory was even weaker.
By the time the Jin Army mobilized a large number of troops and horses to come to the rescue, the rebel troops who had landed for surprise attack and plunder had already boarded the ships and left the shore. The Jin Army soldiers and horses that were chasing after them were gnashing their teeth in anger, but they could only look away and sigh.
.
What's more, there are also the remaining descendants of the emperors of the Liao Dynasty, such as Dalibo, Yelu Guozhen, and Yelu Guobao, as well as the Xiao Qianxi people who were also an important ethnic group in the Liao Kingdom at that time. They landed with the rebels and went everywhere.
Distribute headless notices and spread the word that the Jurchen Jin people are militaristic, tyrannical and unjust, and use tyranny to suppress and overwhelm the people of all tribes and tribes. Although they were powerful at the time, they now went south to invade the Song Dynasty and suffered heavy defeats in several battles. If you do many unjust things, you will be punished.
Sooner or later, the country will be overthrown and subjugated...
It was originally ruled by the Liao Dynasty, and at any rate Guo Zuo also passed on more than 200 years ago. After the sudden rise of the Jurchens, the political power in the North collapsed. Powerful people from all over the country, various tribes and tribes started to raise armies, and some of them also had ambitious people who wanted to govern themselves.
Separate regimes, some just waited and watched the situation and gathered troops to protect themselves. Even if the change of dynasty was a foregone conclusion, they could no longer be the people of the Liao Dynasty. At the beginning, the powerful people in the North even considered surrendering to the Song Dynasty, but in the end they let the Jurchen Jin people become their own
The master is nothing more than being defeated. However, it is less than ten years since the Jin Kingdom invaded the entire Liao Dynasty. The invincible Jin army that swept across the north has lost a lot of its effective strength due to the southern invasion. Now,
In a state of weakness and decline, how can those powerful tribes who have not yet been completely tamed and are willing to be ruled by the Jin people not have strange thoughts again?
Only then did the Jin Dynasty realize that Xiao Tang had planted a sharp knife in the back of his territory, which had disturbed the military states along the coast and immediately gathered all the ministries within the territory who knew nothing about water warfare.
The general gathered all kinds of sea vessels with the intention of encircling and suppressing Pi Island, the center of the maritime rebels' invasion of their own territory.
However, even if many soldiers and horses were recruited, according to the official history, because most of the naval forces had small ships and the generals were not good at water warfare, the Southern Song navy that guarded half of the country was killed several times in the rivers. The Jin army was defeated in the river.
What will happen when we encounter the five rebel naval forces on the ocean, led by Li Jun, who have developed their military strength with tenacity for many years, built large and small ships with strong guns, and assembled many soldiers who are good at water warfare?
After several large-scale naval battles, although they were famous for being mixed up in the great rivers in the Song Dynasty, they also accumulated a lot of experience in naval battles when they fought against the Goryeo Navy, and now they seem to have already established their reputation and prestige in the endless ocean.
Li Jun, who showed strong will in the war, led his troops to take advantage of the naval force to intercept the Jin army's ships in the vast sea. The various ships that came and went freely only made the Jin army slip around on the sea, and they were forced to force them before they could get close.
The powerful crossbows were used to kill the enemy, which facilitated the use of thunderbolt cannons and other firearms on the ship. A large number of Jin troops were either burned to death or exploded, and had to jump into the sea and drown. Later, they were crushed by ships and ships flying on the sea.
Trapping those Jin Army generals who once dominated the land and fighting them to death at sea, the war experience was more relaxed and satisfying than when they outflanked and intercepted the Koryo Navy on the sea.
And even if there are a few fish that slip through the net and approach Phi Island with broken ships, but before they intend to land on the few beaches in the surroundings, they must first be violently attacked by rows of sling artillery from the island's water defense camp.
....
After Xiao Tang read the battle report documents sent from Baozhou, Liaodong, he also thought that compared to the Ming Dynasty, Mao Wenlong, who was promoted to the commander-in-chief of Ping Liao and took Pi Island as the foundation to establish the Dongjiang military stronghold, was still a Ming Dynasty at that time.
North Korea and Nurhaci's Houjin regime experienced a critical situation in the Sarhu War, and occupied the island to set up a town. They even launched surprise attacks and intrusions from the rear as a containment, which also made the Houjin soldiers and horses, who were also rising strongly, helpless.
..... After planning the Liaodong strategy, it had been many years since the troops occupied Xiapi Island. How could the Jin army, which was not good at water warfare, be able to easily defeat it?
"The passive attack along the sea frontier can restrain the Jin army from left to right, and they are exhausted. However, the Jin country suffered heavy losses one after another, and it is no longer as strong as it used to be in the north. It then took advantage of the situation to cross the Yellow River north, regain Hebei, and point its sword at Yanyun.
, the turmoil among the people within the Jin Kingdom will inevitably intensify..."
In the government office hall of Jinan, Xiao Tang summoned Xiao Jiasui, Xu Guanzhong, Zhu Wu and other military advisors. He first said that the Liaodong side had achieved great results in harassing the Jin Kingdom's rear through sea routes, and then expressed his thoughts and talked with
While everyone was discussing in detail, Xu Guanzhong thought briefly, stood up first, and said: "Now we are taking advantage of the changes in the Jurchen Tartars, and we are taking advantage of the situation to send troops across the river to conquer the two lost military states in Hebei, and then march north to Yanyunzhi.
On this occasion, we can also contact the local powerful people and instigate various tribes and tribes who no longer want to submit to the Jurchens to launch a large-scale uprising. As for Baozhou, Liaodong, this rare soldier... In my opinion, if the Jin people wanted to avoid future troubles,
However, the Tatars were not good at water warfare. They faced Pi Island across the sea, and were separated from Bao, Ding, and Xuanzhou by a large river. The navy in the north had leader Li Jun to coordinate the overall situation, so it was enough to protect itself.
Therefore, we should still focus on raids in the north now, and there is no need to act too hastily. When we regain the two roads in Hebei and advance to Yanyun, we can gather 100,000 troops and horses from Pidao Military Town and Baozhou in Liaodong.
, leave the Yalu River and go directly to the place where the Jurchens thrived, and join our troops in marching north to capture the troops and horses in a two-pronged manner, making it difficult for the enemy to look at the enemy from head to tail, only then can we criticize the strong and suppress the weak, and then great things can be accomplished!"
As soon as Xu Guanzhong said this, Xiao Jiasui and others thought for a moment and expressed their agreement. Now even if Jin Guo knew that there were rebels deployed by Xiao Tang in the rear, they had already formed a momentum to contain them, and they were like a sharp sword directed at their own side.
The backbone of the regime, but due to the weakness of the navy, the Jin army was unable to pose a huge threat to Pidao, Baozhou and other places. Xiao Tang only had to send troops northward step by step, but the Jin army had to guard the rear.
However, they were unable to devote all their strength to fighting the Northern Expeditionary Rebels. Under such a predicament that they were too busy to take care of, as long as they could successfully regain the entire territory of Hebei and the two armies and concentrate their superior forces to attack the key points, it would be enough to form the most powerful attack on the Jin Kingdom.
A fatal blow.
As for Xiao Tang, he nodded slightly and immediately sent an order to mobilize the navy vessels of the Sanruan Assembly Station, and also mobilized the vanguard of the rebel army. They would set off today, heading north by water and crossing the Yellow River.
