The four hundred and fortieth chapters show off our military prestige
Zhao Huan refers to Datong Prefecture, which is their only possible goal.
The Jin people had already touched the ashes in Fengshengzhou last year, and they would never go again this time.
The last time, the military fort group in Fengshengzhou was only half built, and the army of tens of thousands of Jin people had barely advanced to the last level, but in the end it was defeated.
This winter, although Fengshengzhou was snowing heavily, the construction of the military fort did not stop. The fully built military fortress now is a nightmare for the Jin people who have no good means to break the city.
The Jin people knew the city defense facilities of Datong Prefecture, and captured Datong Prefecture and continued to plot against Yunzhong Road. The Jin people's correct choice was.
Yue Fei and Han Shizhong took the order to head towards Juyong Pass, and rushed towards Datong Prefecture with 30,000 flying troops and 40,000 Yongding troops.
Zhao Huan frowned and looked at the geometric map, thought for a long time and said, "How many troops do the Xixia people have?"
Zhao Ying was stunned and said, "The people of Xixia are all soldiers. During the war, males under the age of 15 were all enlisted in the army, and there were about one million Xixia people."
"In the eighth year of Daguan, the last time I attacked Yongle City built by the Song Dynasty at the junction of Xia, Yin and You, the largest time was to draw nearly 500,000 people. On weekdays, I could draw 300,000 people. I always prepared about 100,000 soldiers."
Zhao Huan nodded when he heard this and gave up his plan to order Zhong Shizhong to attack from Yongding Army Road.
This time, Xixia attacked Zhao Huan's troops building the city at most 20,000. The main force of the Xixia people was not in this direction. If they go out rashly, if the middle of the slum and the northwest gate is lost, their strategic goal of attacking the Jin people here will be disturbed.
The Jin Kingdom did not have no room for resistance in the face of its own conquest!
At this time, the spring breeze and spring rain in Datong Prefecture were in full swing. Yang Xinzhong looked at the Xixia and Jin people's coalition forces under the city and kept scratching his head.
"Grandfather, why didn't they attack the city?" Yang Xinzhong couldn't understand. After these Jin people and Xixia people stationed separately, there was no movement.
"It's probably because the stolen shares are unevenly or there is a dispute." Yang Zongmin frowned and looked at the two groups of people under the city, and said with a smile.
They had no reinforcements, and the front of Datong Prefecture was wide open, and reinforcements had been discovered by scouts who had long since been scattered.
Now waiting at the city, there must be a dispute over who will die first.
Yang Zongmin shook his head repeatedly and said, "The most important thing in defending the city is whether the supply is complete, and secondly, it is to prevent the traitor from opening the door. Do these two points well. When Captain Yue and General Han lead the troops to kill and leave the city to attack them together, they can defeat the enemy."
"The most important question now is how to build a city in Dongshengwei?"
"When I go in, the people of Xixia will definitely retreat. When we build a city, they will inevitably stop it. Even if we force the city to build a good city, it is easy to be isolated and helpless on the grassland. The people of Xixia and Jin came together, and it is absolutely impossible to defend it. It is difficult to deal with it."
"Are you stationed in the city 100,000 people?" Yang Zongmin frowned. He was not considering retreating to the enemy, but his subsequent strategic plan.
The Dongshengwei must be built, otherwise Datong Mansion will be the same as it is now, and there will be a possibility of being beaten at any time, which is not conducive to the spread of the two wings centered on Yanjing.
This is a big taboo in strategy.
But Yang Zongmin didn't expect anything good, to coerce and induce?
How many years have the Song Dynasty and Xixia fought in recent years?
Yang Zongmin knew the virtues of the people of Xixia, but he was the fox on the grassland, and he couldn't catch them at all.
"This battle is the battle of Lingwu in the Song Dynasty." Yang Zongmin sighed, looking outside the city, wondering what to do.
The Battle of Lingwu, Duan Hun defeated the Eastern Qiang people in Lingwu Valley during the Eastern Han Dynasty. Later, they used the Battle of Lingwu to describe the key battle to defeat foreign races.
The battle of building a city in Dongshengwei was as important as the battle of Lingwu in the Eastern Han Dynasty to defeat the Qiang people.
It is a key strategic layout from strategic defense to strategic offense. If the city cannot be built, the subsequent combat plan cannot be carried out at all.
Yang Zongmin's doubts soon became reality.
The Song Dynasty, the Western Xia, and the Jin people started a tug-of-war between Dongshengwei and Datong Prefecture. The army advanced, and the Xixia people and the Jin people retreated in all directions. When the city was built, the troops came to invade.
Thanks to the lack of slack horses, I didn’t suffer any major losses.
"We can't do this anymore. We can stand it, but the civil servants can't stand this back and forth. Some civil servants who work in the supervision of labor are no longer afraid to go." Yue Fei looked at the geometric map and said to Han Shizhong, Yang Xinzhong, and Yang Zongmin.
The civilians did not suffer much in the tug-of-war between the back and forth. The main purpose of the enemy was to harass. This kind of harassment was better for the soldiers, and the civilians were a little tired.
Dongshengwei is at the gate of Yunzhong Road towards Hetao. If the city is built, the capital of Xixia people, Xingqing Prefecture will be in danger.
Because the horse is flat and full of grasslands, there is no city to guard at all.
"Does Captain Yue have any good strategies?" Yang Zongmin shook his swing chair and leaned against the geometric map.
Yue Fei's hand drew a line on the geometric map and said, "From here, there are 949 miles. At the current speed, you can reach Xingqing Prefecture from Dongshengwei in three days!"
The starting point of this line is Dongshengzhou, and the end point of this line is Xingqing Prefecture and the capital of Xixia.
"The army alone is going deep, and it is a big taboo for military strategists." Yang Zongmin shook his head and said. This strategy is somewhat imaginative, and the Song Dynasty has never had this kind of fighting style.
"We have horses now, and we carry food for a few days. We must rescue the enemy if we attack the enemy, so that the people of Xixia will be completely shrunk. Otherwise, the matter of building the city will be dragged on like this and will be left alone in the end." Yue Fei said sighing.
The more he looked at the geometric map, the more likely it was. There was less rain in spring and the road was not very muddy. If you drag it back until early summer, such a surprise attack would become difficult.
"There was no such style of fighting before the Song Dynasty, but now the right time, place, people and people are there. Even if they cannot conquer Xingqing Prefecture, they can still give the people of Xixia a long memory!" Yue Fei said.
"If you are surrounded, it's a big deal, I don't think it's right." Yang Zongmin said so.
Yue Fei thought for a while and said, "Then let the officials make a decision."
When Zhao Huan received Yue Fei's military newspaper, he frowned and looked at it for a long time. Yue Fei's plan was an excellent strategy. This plan of marching thousands of miles was not to conquer the city and land. It only had one purpose, an armed parade.
In Yue Fei's words, it will show our military power!
Show his strength to the Xixia people and the Xixia kings, so that they can choose their own positioning in the battle between the Song Dynasty and the Jin people.
Zhao Huan approved this order. In his opinion, it would be a good idea to be able to take a walk anyway. Otherwise, Dongshengwei would be so stiff.
Yue Fei did better than Zhao Huan thought.
After Yue Fei received the order, he led the Hejian Feijun and rushed towards Xingqing Mansion while the weather was still good. The journey of the thousands of miles of marched, and the good news spread frequently!
After conquering the Yanfang, Yihe attacked Shuofang City from Qingda Gate, turned from Shuofang City to Hangjin City, and returned directly to Houyuan Road in Wuhai. It was not that Yue Fei did not want to extend the Yellow River and headed straight to Xingqing Mansion, but because the official gave him a month.
The most dangerous thing to go in a thousand miles is to be surrounded by the enemy, but Yue Fei's battle that focuses on deterrence will not stay for too long when he fights a place.
However, Zhao Huan still only gave Yue Fei one month. The counselor of the Privy Council and Yang Zongmin judged that danger would occur in more than one month.
And this time, a total of eighteen counties and two states were captured.
When Yue Fei returned to Yunzhong Road with a full load, it took exactly one month.
"The people of Xixia retreated and fled in a hurry." Yang Xinzhong watched Yue Fei return on the city of Dongshengwei, and welcomed Yue Fei and his group into the city with a smile.
This trip, the Xixia people were almost scared to death.
When did the people of the Central Plains also play this trick of moving forward in a thousand miles?
And he has already reached Wuhai, less than 300 miles from Xingqing Mansion!
Yue Fei took the kettle handed over by Yang Xinzhong and said with a smile, "I have stayed in some places for a long time, otherwise I can at least fight Pingluo and the combat effectiveness of the Xixia people is vulnerable."
