Chapter 1216 1217 [There will be times when the wind and waves break] (13)

On the vast plains, Liang troops came from all over the mountains and plains.

This scene not only suppressed the nearly 10,000 Zhou troops who were about to break through the Jiangyin city defenses, but also stunned the Zhou generals on the positions outside the city, especially the group of people monitoring the battle situation on the mountain. They almost used all their strength to control themselves.

He didn't look at the young master of the Fang family standing in the middle.

Just less than an hour ago, Fang Yuntian calmly mocked the Beiliang generals, ridiculing them for not being able to see through the fog on the battlefield. This was because Xiao Jin and Gu Jinshao were unable to guess their own strategic intentions, and they could not figure out whether there were any warships on the warships behind them.

There was an ambush hidden, so they did not dare to send reinforcements to rescue Jiangyin City.

In fact, Fang Yuntian was also surprised. He really did not expect that he could not only contain the Yaoshan Camp in Beiliang, but also force the other party to seek support from the main force of the Southern Army.

However, who would have thought that just when Jiangyin City was about to be captured, a Beiliang reinforcement army arrived on the battlefield in time!

Fang Yuntian looked at Liang Jun who appeared in the west with no expression on his face. Everyone around him was as silent as a cicada. Even Fang Yunji, who usually jumped up and down, was silent at this moment.

In fact, Fang Yuntian was not as angry as others imagined. At this moment, he had an unsolvable confusion in his heart.

This Liang army was not cavalry. How could they avoid the cavalry they scattered and were not discovered until they were close to the outside of the battlefield?

Liang Jun's reinforcements are still some distance away from Zhou Jun's main formation. It can be seen from their marching posture that this army is very organized. Even during the rapid march, their formation can be maintained very complete and does not appear to be scattered.

The situation of being in a hurry like a headless fly.

At the front of the Liang army, two thousand tigers were as powerful as tigers under the leadership of a burly general.

The main force followed closely behind, with a thousand light cavalry on each flank.

The weapon used by that burly general was a mace that was far beyond ordinary people's imagination. Behind him was an equally burly soldier carrying a vanguard flag with two powerful characters written on it.

Wu Ding!

The burly military general is Wu Dingwei's deputy commander Xue Meng, and in the Chinese army formation at the rear, a general riding his horse forward is none other than Wu Dingwei's commander Qin Xian.

Fang Yuntian naturally didn't know that Qin Xian was born in Pingyang Houfu, Daliang, and had a family background in training elite scouts. He was extremely accomplished in this field and had helped Pei Yue complete unexpected raids many times. As early as four days ago, Qin Xian

Xian then received Gu Jie's reminder and Gu Jinshao's military order.

Next, he did not obey Jin Shao's order not to move without permission. After analyzing the battlefield situation, he immediately led his troops eastward, hiding his traces along the way. He did not speed up the march until more than 20 miles away, and at the same time dispatched his elite scouts.

Clean up the Zhou army's ranger sentries.

As the distance between the two sides got closer, Xue Meng's blood became more and more intense, and he roared as he ran wildly: "Kill!"

While Liang Jun was rapidly approaching, Fang Yuntian had suppressed his doubts and changed his formation. On the one hand, he temporarily relaxed the offensive against Jiangyin City, and on the other hand, he adjusted his main force to the west.

Xue Meng led the army straight up, and the mace hit the Zhou army's forward position like a heavy hammer.

Thousands of armies are rolling forward!

This battle was fought until the sky was dark and the earth was dark, and it was difficult to distinguish. In the end, the Zhou army had to take the initiative to retreat.

Wu Ding Wei and Guiyang Wei successfully joined forces, and the cheers of Liang Jun's officers and men resounded throughout the world.

…

In Puqi City, the atmosphere in the Festival Hall of the Marshal's Mansion was extremely solemn.

Battle reports from the east and west fronts continued to come in, the Sizhou defense line was in constant danger, and the Changping camp continued to retreat. Although there were more than 10,000 Jiading guards to support them, the strength of the Zhou army of more than 60,000 people should not be underestimated. Both sides were in Cen.

Ningfu, Pingwufu and other places

Repeated battles began. As for the eastern front, things were not optimistic. The new Southern Zhou navy had completely cleared the lower reaches of the Tiancang River. Not only Jiangyin Mansion and other places were attacked by the Zhou army, but the Zhou Dynasty's Linjiang camp on the south bank was also ready to move.

Another thing that is unpredictable is that the line from Hanyang City to Jiangling City on the south bank is very quiet. It seems that the Southern Zhou Dynasty has no intention of taking back this place.

"Report!" A commander quickly ran into the festival hall.

The commander of Zhennan Camp, Gongcheng Hou Guo Xing said solemnly: "Where is the military situation?"

The commander was sweating profusely and said hurriedly: "Master Junji, a large army of about 20,000 people from Southern Zhou attacked Jiangyin City. When the situation was at its most dangerous, our army's Wu Dingwei commander Qin Xian arrived in time with his troops.

The danger in Jiangyin was relieved. Now Wuding Guards are stationed in Jiangyin.

On the west side of Yin City, far away from the Zhou army. Gu Houye, the commander of the Yaoshan camp, sent an urgent message at the same time, saying that Wu Dingwei had taken matters into his own hands, causing the Songyang Prefecture defense line to fall into emptiness. He had already mobilized troops to supplement the defense of Songyang Prefecture and begged the military commander.

Send troops to support Yaozhou and punish Qin Xian for his unauthorized actions!"

All the generals and military assistants in the hall looked solemn.

Saving the city of Jiangyin was a great achievement, but Qin Xian's move completely ignored Gu Jinshao's military orders, which was a taboo in the military.

Guo Xing looked worriedly at the figure beside the sand table.

Xiao Jin took charge of the Southern Army this time, essentially because the nobles in the palace were afraid of Pei Yue, and also hoped that he could change the pattern of the Southern Army. Although Qin Xian was only the commander, everyone knew that he was the most trusted by Pei Yue.

His sworn brother has an unusual status. Although Gu Jinshao is the coach of the Yaoshan camp, it is understandable that he cannot suppress Qin Xian, but this does not mean that Qin Xian can do whatever he wants.

If Xiao Jin takes advantage of the situation and gets angry...

Not only did Guo Xing have such concerns, but so did other generals such as Zhang Qixian and Zhuang Xia.

However, Xiao Jin raised his head and said to the commander: "Reply to Gu Jinshao, what Qin Xian did was my order."

Everyone was surprised, as if they didn't believe their ears.

Xiao Jin seemed unaware, pointing to the position of Songyang Mansion on the sand table and said: "The defense line that our army needs to take into account is too long, especially when the monarchs and ministers of the Southern Dynasty know that our army has no backup, and all the troops in the Beijing camp are tied up by the Western Wu army. Such a long defense line

, it is difficult for our army to cover everything, take Songyang and Jiangyin as an example. To protect Jiangyin Mansion, Wuding Guards must be mobilized, so there will be gaps in the defense of Songyang Mansion."

Zhuang Xia was slightly startled, then an idea flashed in his mind, and he loudly said: "Master Junji, are you saying that the loopholes in Songyang Mansion will induce the Linjiang Camp on the south bank to send troops northward?"

Xiao Jin nodded and said: "That's right. Everyone, the Southern Dynasty changed its previous Luzhi style this time. It just wanted to take advantage of the pull between the east and west fronts to frequently mobilize our army, thereby consuming the strength of our soldiers. This is my temporary plan.

The reason why the fortified troops were not used is because I told you earlier that the key to this battle lies not in the east and west fronts, but in the south of Jiangling."

Everyone became more and more excited.

South of Jiangling are the three lines of defense built by the Southern Zhou Dynasty based on numerous passes.

If these three lines of defense can be broken through and Liang's troops point directly at Jian'an, all the Zhou army's plans will come to nothing.

This is what military strategists say is the only way to attack the enemy.

Xiao Jin's eyes flashed, and he said solemnly: "Now the Ningguo camp of the Southern Zhou Dynasty is trapped in the Sizhou battlefield, and our army has made way for Songyang Prefecture's defense line downstream. We will wait until the opponent's Linjiang camp moves north.

The day when the army from the south bank moves south."

He paused slightly and said in a higher tone: "General Zhuang."

Zhuang Xia said sternly: "I have a humble position."

Xiao Jin said: "The general has always been loyal and brave. There is no room for failure in this battle. Please lead the army across the pontoon across the river tomorrow and station troops in Jiangling City."

Zhuang Xia said without hesitation: "I accept my order from my humble position!"

Xiao Jin added: "Send the order to Cai Qian, the Marquis of Baoding. Three days later, he will lead his army south and break through the Chengbei Camp of the Southern Zhou Dynasty!"

The commander responded loudly.

Guo Xing hesitated to speak. Judging from the current situation, the Southern Zhou Dynasty deliberately avoided the central battlefield where Daliang's heavy troops gathered, and divided their forces to attack the city on the east and west fronts. Obviously they knew very well that whether Jiangling City on the south bank or Puqi City on the north bank,

They are all hard enough to break their teeth.

From a grand strategic point of view, Xiao Jin's decision should be no problem. During this period, he has been dealing with it cautiously, as if he was hiding his sword in his body to accumulate strength, and finally suddenly attacked the opponent's most lethal place.

But for some reason, Guo Xing always felt uneasy.

…

March 16th was a sunny day.

Outside Jiangling City on the south bank, the army stretched out.

Cai Qian, the Marquis of Baoding, led an army of 50,000, and Zhuang Xia, the commander of the solid base camp, led an army of 40,000. They were vast and well-organized.

Attack directly on the Chengbei camp of Southern Zhou Dynasty.
