Chapter three hundred and sixty ninth water and land advance
Yang Xingmi also said that the Tang army had no movement for such a period of time, so they did not want to continue to invade the south. So their attitude of resisting to the death was a little unstable. The Jiangnan sent to Chang'an was rushing back day and night, but the Tang army's actions were too fast. The southern expedition had made many preparations. The detailed plan was detailed. In order to cooperate with the smooth implementation of the lightning tactics, all the barriers and passes in various places were closed. They could only cross mountains and ridges and take small roads and rush back to the place where they were attacked. They were defeated too quickly. The remaining soldiers and defeated were still in shock at this time. They had just sent a quick horse to warn Yangzhou. They were still on the way.
Liu Jian, the Privy Council, and the inspector of the river, rushed into the hall in a panic and fell to the ground and shouted loudly: "The King and the Tang people fought against Hukou without declaration, and Chizhou fell to the north. There were smoke everywhere on the southwest. The king quickly summoned civil and military officials to discuss countermeasures."
Yang Xingmi stood there for a while and the "Shanxiaohu Pen" in his hand fell on the "Chengxintang Paper" that was as slippery as spring ice and as dense as fine cocoons, and stained the paper.
He asked in a daze: "Liu Aiqing, what did you say?"
The Tang army advanced from north, east and west to the end of the encirclement goal. Although Yangzhou captured the Tang Kingdom in Huainan, it still launched a war against Yang Xingmi. This is inevitable, but the commander who commanded the army changed the human momentum and created heroes. The two are interacting with each other. Duan Mingyu replaced Tian Lingzi and led the army to lead the army. What does it mean to change the future situation.
Duan Mingyu was inexplicably confused and approached Caishi's brigade, and the more horses and soldiers they were coming and going, the more refugees were constantly in the way. Some refugees could only choose some small paths that they would not choose to move forward. This was a waste of time when the refugees arrived Caishi's quarry flags were like clouds and soldiers. The army was already in a state of no way.
Yang Fugong's offensive was really quick to break through Hukou. The Navy Army of Poxiakou Village rushed straight to Tongling Tongling General Li Shenfu got the news and was not afraid of the combat effectiveness of the Jinghu Navy led by Duan Mingyu, which was far from comparable to the elite Yangzhou. If it weren't for the Hukou General, his army would not have thought of passing through Li Shenfu safely. Although there were only 30,000 troops in his hands, he was confident that he could rely on the right territorial position to block the road to the east of the 100,000 navy troops.
He gathered 30,000 troops to more than 100 large warships and blocked the entire river. The ship walls were like forests, several layers of straight walls, like iron walls, and the army arrived. Yang Fugong saw that Li Shenfu had already prepared for the situation and knew that it was impossible to compete. So he ordered the general Song Wentong to go ashore first while Li Shenfu was in the river to capture Tongling City and set fire in the city.
The defenders of Tongling were mostly locals who were worried about their parents, wives and children when they saw that the city was in full swing, and they asked Li Shenfu to go ashore to save the city. At this time, the formation had already been set off. Yang Fugong's army came in a fierce manner. How could Li Shenfu agree to those Yangzhou soldiers who saw the commander refused to allow them to simply disobey the military order and drive the ship to the shore directly. As the saying goes, the military order is like a mountain. Now this military order is not as good as the flesh and blood affection. Li Shenfu ordered his personal soldiers to kill many soldiers who took the lead and could not stop them.
For a time, before the Tang army's navy had already taken the battle, the Yangzhou navy was in chaos, and the boats were staggered. The water traffic jam occurred. It was a wonder of the battlefield. Song Wentong was ordered by Yang Fugong to not kill civilians. The fire was set up by firewood piled up in the street market in the city. He left the city and ambushed the Yangzhou soldiers to come ashore. He realized that he was too cautious. When the Yangzhou army got ashore, he cried and shouted to go straight to the city. He had no formation or concern for subordinates. He became a group of mobs.
Song Wentong immediately roared the drum to attack and attack the Yangzhou army that had been killed by the Yangzhou army that had been chopped and cut vegetables, and the Yangzhou army on the water was killed. Not to mention Yang Fugong's army was approaching, directly boarding the ship to fight. The two sides were in full swing. Song Wentong killed all the Yangzhou soldiers who had arrived on the ashore. The Yangzhou army had seized their ships and rushed towards the Yangzhou navy.
Seeing that the situation was over, Li Shenfu was defeated and crying and was covered by several personal soldiers. He fled to the warship arranged in the rear, and escaped to Dangtu. He rushed to report the letter.
The news spread along the river Yangzhou army was panicked and could only set up obstacles. The rockets were deployed along the way to hinder the speed of the Tang army's navy's marching. Yang Fugong did not stay for a moment and went to Wuhu to take Wuhu and then turn to attack Dangtu. At this time, the battle of Caishi'an had begun.
Duan Mingyu rushed to the south and went south without stopping. He rushed to the place where Caishi'an and Yang Fugong met day and night. Yang Fugong's navy had not arrived yet. According to Emperor Xizong of Tang, his horse and infantry army wanted to use Yang Fugong to help cross the river to fight, but Tian Lingzi couldn't wait. Hearing that Yang Fugong had not arrived yet Tian Lingzi was overjoyed and immediately ordered the collection of fishing boats along the river to cross the river.
He has only one purpose: to seize credit
Duan Mingyu is the best in the Tang Dynasty's current military general sequence. If Tian Lingzi can break through the Yangzhou fortress without Yang Fugong's help, he can make a splash and become the most capable general in Tang Dynasty. Although in addition to Duan Mingyu, there is another Yang Fugong who is also famous for his good attack, he is also famous for his official position and reputation. Yang Fugong is slightly inferior to Duan Mingyu and cannot be compared with him.
His ten years of civilized governance skills have been known to everyone at that time, his martial arts will become famous all over the world
But the natural danger is not so easy to attack. With some fishing boats collected, it is not easy to break through the fortress. The guard of Yangzhou Army is the capital of the cavalry and infantry. Zhang Ke, who has 20,000 elite soldiers. The war is the Shen Ce Army. The Central Army lost its armor and blood. The first battle was defeated.
Tian Lingzi knew that with the strength of the Tang Kingdom, he could sooner or later defeat Yang Xingmi, who called himself the King of Wu. This was yesterday's incident. Yang Xingmi saw that the Tang army was determined to destroy him. He even publicly claimed that he was the King of Wu and the Wu army's troops under the army's flag.
Tian Lingzi's army only had to feint attack to attract Caishi'an defenders so that they could not divide the troops. Only had to cover up Yang Fugong's navy's army in this battle had great potential, but what he wanted was a shocking effect. If it was fought for the first half of the year or a year, what else would there be to do?
