Let's say that Han Chang persuaded Wanyan Wushu by the river and finally changed his decision. Once the army decided to abandon their baggage and gallop towards Xijing, they were instantly unable to control it...
Of course, this situation also means that the Jin Army has completely given up its intention to fight the Song Army, and abandoning the baggage and simply marching in a hurry will itself mean that the horse death rate will be greatly increased, and the non-combat attrition rate of the soldiers will be greatly increased.
.
Seeing this situation, Yue Fei did not dare to neglect. On the one hand, he sent some troops across the river to rob the Jin army's abandoned baggage, and on the other hand, he quickly pursued along the river. He did not forget to report to Zhao Jiu and Han Shizhong in a hurry. After learning about Wang De's movements, he even sent a message to Wang De.
Contact us and meet at Jiahe to pursue.
But it was too late. The Jin army fought hard despite the huge pressure of attrition. When they reached Dengfeng, they met Yelu Mawu's supporting troops and successfully entered the Luoyang Basin.
At this time, Han Shizhong's ambush strategy completely failed.
This is not because Han Shizhong did not try his best, nor is it because Yue Fei did not diligently implement Han Shizhong's strategy.
In fact, both of them did well. Han Shizhong has not forgotten the hole in Xijing. He has already contacted Li Yanxian to try to completely eliminate Yelu Mawu in the Xijing area and seal the hole, but in the end it was a step too late.
Yue Fei's execution was unparalleled. He even resisted the temptation to annihilate the four men at the banks of the Ru River.
What's the problem?
Quite simply, the Song army underestimated the significance of the Yanling-Changshe battle... They not only underestimated the Jin army's shock at this battle, but also underestimated the inspiring effect of their own people on this battle.
In other words, Zhao Jiu, Han Shizhong, and Yue Fei are all a bit special, and they are all a bit out of touch with the masses. When preparing for this ambush, the three of them did not compare their hearts at all, and they did not understand that the officials of the Song Dynasty appeared on the battlefield in person and defeated them, and
What significance did the total destruction of the fifteen Meng'an formations have to the Jin and Song armies?
This was the first time that the Jin army reached 10,000 but was annihilated by the formation!
When something happens for the first time, it will make people panic... Jin Jun himself was afraid. Ta Lanzhi experienced this battle personally and was so panicked that he simply left and never returned. Although Wu Shu and the others were not afraid for this reason
, but the inner fear and uneasiness actually existed, and this fear made them not only fail to fall for Yue Fei's textbook hesitation and temptation, but became more vigilant.
After all, the Song Army was not like this in the past.
The direct cause that led to Jin Army coach Wu Shu's complete change of strategy was Nanyang's active pursuit, which was beyond the expectations of Zhao Jiu, Han Shizhong, Yue Fei and others. They really did not expect that Wang De and Hu Yantong could pursue them.
Of course, thinking about it at this time, it seems that Wang De and Hu Yantong can't make sense if they don't chase after them... Although I don't know the specific reaction in Nanyang, when they saw the Jin army disappearing with a roar, and then found out that Zhao Guan's family was in Yanling -
What Chang She said sounded a bit scary, but it seemed that he couldn't do anything fake. How could Mr. Lu of Nanyang not react at all?
In fact, it was Lu Yihao's suggestion to conscript the emperor personally.
Of course, Han Chang's excellent judgment and the vigilance of Ba Lisu and others are also an important reason. We have to admit that during the rise of the Jin Kingdom, a large number of outstanding military talents also took advantage of the situation, and their combat effectiveness was not groundless... In a word
, they can be temporarily panicked because of this battle and the current predicament, but it is not realistic to expect their combat effectiveness and judgment to collapse quickly.
But no matter what happened, as the main force of the Jin army spent nearly a thousand non-combat attrition and lost more war horses, Wanyan Wushu finally successfully withdrew to Xijing and reunited with Yelu Mawu.
However, even so, the war could not end here, because almost at the same time Wu Shu arrived in Luoyang, Li Yanxian's tribe sent Wang Yan's tribe to Tokyo to defend Zhao Guan's house, and Han Shizhong's, Yue Fei's, and even Wang De's and Lu Qing's tribes successively
They are gathered in the area around Sishui Pass in the east of Luoyang, Dengfeng in the south, and Mianchi in the west, which is the outskirts of the traditional Luoyang Basin.
The various ministries joined forces, at least 70,000 to 80,000 people, and they were in constant contact with each other. Under the leadership of Han Shizhong, who had the triple bonus of imperial edict, gold medal, and jade belt, they basically surrounded Luoyang from three sides and kept shrinking the encirclement.
They were obviously eyeing the main cavalry force of the Jin Army, which numbered more than 40,000.
This was not because Han Shizhong had eaten the courage of a leopard, nor was it because he had lost his mind due to his desire for revenge. It was because these generals and even the Zhao family in Tokyo knew that Wanyan Wushu, who had left behind his baggage and arrived in Luoyang, would definitely know about this.
No matter how furious the fourth prince was, he had so many cavalry but lacked supplies, but he had one and only one choice, which was to raise a ferry as soon as possible and then quickly cross the Yellow River, because he
It is no longer possible to gain a foothold in Henan!
When the Jin army crossed the river and separated their forces, it was the best time for the Song army to surround them again and take a bite!
The first month is about to pass, and February is approaching. Due to the speed of information dissemination, the Jin Army and Song Army in other places may still be in the world of ice and fire... But just like the point put forward in "On War", the main force will decide the battle.
Everything at the military level has been covered. With the battle that Zhao Song officials personally launched and succeeded more than ten days ago, and the Song army's expansion of the results of that battle in the following days, so far, at least the two warring parties around Luoyang
Everyone knows that in the end, the Song army held the battle and the Jin army was defeated.
Moreover, this battle will end soon.
As a result, Wanyan Wushu was furious and took the most decisive approach. He did not hesitate to choose Yelu Mawu as the rear, and then the entire army crossed the river in time.
There is nothing to say. What the Song Army was waiting for was this rear-breaking force. While the main force of the Jin Army used the fleet to start crossing the river, tens of thousands of Song troops began to advance into Luoyang from three sides... There were no tricks, and there were no Jedi.
When the Song army calculated its timing and finally concentrated its forces towards the ferry north of Beimang Mountain, the Jin army was left with only Yelu Mawu and 10,000 men on the south bank of the river to break up the rear.
The two sides fought, reenacting the drama of the previous battle in Zhengzhou. Yelu Mawu won first and then lost, losing nearly 3,000 troops before the entire army collapsed.
But the story continued to repeat itself, which made Han Shizhong extremely unhappy - Yelu Mawu fled westward, and with the help of his horse power, he managed to join the corresponding fleet at Changquan Ferry on the upper reaches of the Yellow River, and then successfully escaped.
The reason for Yelu Mawu's successful breakthrough is actually very simple: Li Yanxian missed the deadline.
In fact, this commander-in-chief, who was highly valued by the Zhao family and whose actual status was probably equal to that of Han Shizhong and Zhang Jun, not only missed his appointment, but also simply withdrew his troops.
Of course, Li Yanxian was not doing anything to create the traditional stench of the Western Army, but there was a reason for it - the part of Shaanzhou on the north bank of the Yellow River suffered a strong attack from the Jin Army's West Route Army, and Wanyan, the son of Wanyan Lou's family, was alive in this wave of attacks.
Women's flags also appeared in the Hedong area.
Li Yanxian must immediately organize and coordinate his troops on the north bank of the Yellow River to prevent them from being completely wiped out.
After all, with the emergence of the East Route Army and the withdrawal of the main force of the West Route Army to the north, the main force of the Jin Army around Zhongtiao Mountain at this time has reached an astonishing number.
After learning the news, Han Shizhong did not dare to be careless anymore. On the contrary, Han Liangchen, who understood the seriousness of the matter and knew that Zhao Guan's family was watching behind him, sent troops to assist Li Yanxian's troops to retreat, and at the same time led the entire Song army, and immediately followed
The formation of the Yellow River.
In early February, at one time, the main forces of the Song and Jin Dynasties gathered on both sides of the Yellow River from Tongguan to Huazhou, and the total number of troops facing each other across the river reached an astonishing 300,000.
At this time, Zhao Guan's family was a little panicked.
Of course, while Han Shizhong was arranging the defense line, he immediately had something to say.
He believes that the weather has turned warm, and the Jin army, which hates the warm climate in the south, has no desire to go south again, and it is impossible to re-raise enough food and grass for 200,000 troops to go south in the short term. This time the linkage of troops from the east and west,
Apparently, it was Du Marshal Wanyan Nianhan who, after learning that Talan was defeated and fled back to Hebei, coordinated the two armies as Du Marshal in order to coordinate the retreat of the Henan troops.
But now, the main force of Wanyan Wushu has been withdrawn, and the land in Hedong previously recovered by Li Yanxian in Shaanzhou has been retaken. As long as the Jin army in the direction of Nanjing and Huazhou withdraws safely, the current terrifying confrontation situation will disappear immediately.
By then, the Jin Army's fourth major invasion, which lasted for almost half a year and lasted from the second year to the third year of Jianyan, would officially come to an end.
A few days later, the Nanjing Jin Army evacuated and the siege of Huazhou was relieved. Han Shizhong's words officially came true.
Immediately, the main force of the Jin Army in Hebei withdrew across the board, and the war was over.
On February 15th, as Zhang Jun, who had recaptured Nanjing, personally led his troops to Tokyo to "escort", the Zhao family issued a new order.
The first is to let various ministries and armies distribute military rations that can be used as seeds, and to partially eliminate military animals and local governments, and then distribute them to the officials and people returning home from the war to seize the last opportunity for spring plowing.
Second, the old, weak, sick and disabled in each army were resettled on the spot to serve as military camps.
Thirdly, let the ministers of Xiangyang and Xiangyang who are marching to the land of five rivers divert to Heyin in Zhengzhou together with the ministers. The treasures, grain and silk from Xiangyang escorted along with them should also be diverted to Heyin. All the troops should be arranged properly to ensure that there is no hindrance.
, and try their best to gather in Heyin... As an official, he wants to reward the six armies here and give rewards based on merit.
