Chapter 65
Fight after battle.
The general offensive battle launched before dawn, as for the three battles and three victory in the afternoon, Zhao Ping'an's troops officially arrived at the city of Guangzhou.
It became a blood-stained unit, mostly the blood of the enemy, but after all, it was flesh and blood, and I had a lot of blood!
"He, Zhao Ping'an's troops actually defeated Nong Zhigao's nearly 20,000 main forces? Look, Nong Zhigao's army is in chaos and has begun to retreat. The siege of Guangzhou has finally been lifted, and our Guangzhou military and civilians have finally been saved!"
On the high city, Wei Guan cried with joy when he saw it, then shook for a moment, and fainted on the ground...
Judging from the actual situation, Nong Zhigao's army is not yet a major collapse, but it is really in local chaos and retreats to the northwest of Guangzhou.
This battle will determine Guangzhou, which will directly bring Nong Zhigao's long front to a cool heart, and his morale will be completely reversed.
Anyone who dares to pursue this time will have some profits. Next, it depends on whether Chen Bingqingyuan's Su Jian and Zhang Zhong's troops dare to "chase highs and buy".
The trend will not be easily formed, but once it is formed, it will not be easily reversed. At this time, even if it is a mob, as long as you dare to chase Nong Zhigao's army and fight, it will be less risky even if you can't win, because Nong Zhigao is messy for the time being, not only will he be suspicious, but he will not be able to effectively control the counterattack of his subordinate organizations.
As for Zhao Ping'an, he was reluctant to pull the troops and fought again. He even called out Sun Xiao's troops and Zhou Cheng's troops to send them back to prevent any trouble.
It's still the same theory. If the injury is mild, even if the wound does not reply immediately, it is easy to let go of the injury immediately.
But when the injury reaches a certain point, it cannot recover.
The fourteen battalions carried a small amount of dry food at that time, and followed Zhao Ping'an day and night in the most harsh environment in the harshest environment.
Since being shortlisted in Guangzhou, there have been a series of positional battles. They have fought here in one go, and the damage has been really good.
The courage of courage is at its peak, and it is indeed possible to rush and kill again. But if you don’t take the initiative to vent your breath, it is equivalent to overdrawing it. It is hard to say whether the troops can recover in the future...
For Wei Guan, the governor of Guangzhou, I felt that I had never explained this in my life.
Fighting against the sky and the earth in a harsh environment, keeping hope towards the light, Wei Guan has experienced a lot of these as a parent.
Only when he was ordered to Guangzhou in the face of danger, he had never imagined that he had faced this harsh struggle for man-made disasters.
At that time, the most difficult and darkest moment of the offensive and defensive battle in Guangzhou, nearly a thousand corpses were piled up in the city but they could not be dealt with. Wei Guan thought that was the worst moment.
Until now, Zhao Ping'an's troops were at the city of Guangzhou. After defeating the Nong Zhigao army with a dominant attitude and morale, in order to prevent the spread of the epidemic, Wei Guan began to clear the peripheral battlefield with the help of Su Jian's troops.
Wherever you pass, you will see sores, mosquitoes and flies everywhere, and blood-stained corpses.
The scene that was shocking just by looking at it was the footprints of the Guangnan Camp. The legendary elite composed of fourteen battalions rushed into Guangzhou from the Shimen!
This road, covered by corpses and blood, was forged by Zhao Ping'an's ministry.
After all, Wei Guan experienced the harsh offensive and defensive battle in Guangzhou, so it was fine. However, as a place that was not baptized by the war, the magistrate Su Jian of the magistrate has crawled on the ground for the third time while cleaning up the peripheral battlefield.
Su Jian couldn't even understand how that team accomplished this feat?
Peng Yuye, a Guangzhou governor, said that even if there is no pressure on this road, it is difficult to walk so quickly, but after overcoming all the adverse factors, they repaired Lishan, and started to set up positions for five consecutive times from Shimen until they arrived at the city of Guangzhou.
This is a miracle! A miracle in military history!
Peng Yuye will never forget it in his life. At that time, Guangzhou, which had been exhausted, saw through the city. In the distance of the horizon, there were thick smoke rising from more and more places, and the low horn of war resounded through the sky.
The army of Nong Zhigao, deployed in six directions, was in chaos and wanted to gather together in a short time to deal with the crisis, but could not do it at all. Until Zhao Ping'an's troops, who were invaded, were heartbroken!
As a general, being able to watch the team with the flag "Wind Forest Volcano" at the entrance of Guangzhou City with its own eyes is a comfort to life.
Especially when they saw them harvesting the Nong Zhigao army, which caused a huge disaster to Guangzhou, countless military and civilians on the city wall fainted excitedly.
One general succeeds and thousands of bones are woven!
Zhao Ping'an, who entered Guangzhou City wearing a ghost mask, gained all the glory.
The women and children in Guangzhou, who were as hungry as skeletons, organized a temporary welcome, handed over a cake mixed with two-thirds of the window paper to reward the Guangnan camp. It is said that it was the best food in Guangzhou.
But everything comes at a price.
Even Zhao Ping'an, who was best cared for, couldn't afford to get sick after entering Guangzhou, and is still in the symptoms of a high fever.
As for the fourteen elite camps that followed Zhao Ping'an into Guangzhou, the situation was not optimistic.
There was no barracks for them in Guangzhou, and they were distributed in groups, and they fell asleep in the streets when they fell into tears. Even if the wounds on their bodies were still bleeding, they could not wake them up for the time being. This is the real situation reported from multiple aspects.
Except for most people who were covered in blood and up to 20% of the war damage, almost most people in the Guangnan camp were wounded.
The new and old injuries are no longer clear. Many wounds cannot be treated during wartime. It is a miracle to have the opportunity to simply bandage them. It is a "battlefield self-rescue skill" by Zhao Ping'an's troops.
Some of them were wounds that were marching in heavy rains and mudslides and were bitten by various unknown insects or lees. They had already become festered and smelly when they continued until Guangzhou.
The first thought that the governor Wei Guan woke up at the top of the city at that time was: The Song Dynasty could not have this army.
So under the conditions that were already so bad that Wei Guan issued the first death order after Guangzhou rescued the siege: the whole nation would definitely save the unit.
In this way, Guangzhou City became a large battlefield clinic.
There are not enough doctors to care about it. Anyone who knows some fur will go to the front line to do whatever they have.
All women gave up their own dolls and elderly people. Anyone who could move would be temporarily used as nurses to wash away the blood on their bodies for the soldiers, so that they could tell where there were wounds and how many wounds were there?
The nurse is enough, but the doctor is much worse.
The advantage is that in the more than two months since the previous two-month period of transition to Guangxi, Zhao Ping'an trained many true disciples about battlefield knowledge, and military doctors are not short of them.
Even though these military doctors are injured now, they still walk around with crutches and direct the nurses' corps to provide rescue.
Almost all the power that can be used has been used, and more and more large pots and stoves and countless firewood have been collected.
Recently, on the long street, we have been burning fire day and night, steaming gauze and cotton cloth, as well as disinfecting utensils, and disinfecting all possible sources of epidemics in Guangzhou City!
Who can think that in addition to fighting, the military doctors who came to Zhao Ping'an's school were also shocked by the whole of Guangzhou. They were spreading new medical knowledge everywhere.
For this reason, Wei Guan, the governor of Guangzhou, personally issued an instruction: After the disaster, there will be a major epidemic, and it is the scorching sun. Guangzhou City would rather not eat than concentrate all resources and manpower to disinfect. This is a wartime state. Anyone who dares to drink raw water and those who dare to sell raw water and those who dare to sell raw water and food do not need to be judged. Decision will be executed!
"Free, coal, stove, iron pot, cotton yarn, these are far from enough. When will the new batch be shipped!"
This is what Wei Guan is most concerned about. In contrast, Zhao Ping'an, who is still in a high fever and has not yet woken up, is not the focus.
Wei Guan never felt sorry for any Song army, but this time he was exceptional. He really tried every means to save this army and minimize the sequelae of war.
"My husband... Su Yanzhizhou and General Zhang Zhong have indeed agreed to these supplies, but we are embarrassed to urge them."
Guangzhou Chief Peng Yuye responded in a low voice awkwardly.
The implication is that they do not belong to Guangzhou or Wei Guan's subordinates. It is already a matter of giving face to promise to help. In this case, it is normal for them to be a few days later or a few days earlier.
Wei Guan said with a dark face: "I really don't know how to say them. At that time, Chen Bingqingyuan, but he just did nothing and looked at Guangzhou City bleeding. The state understands that they did die when they came, but they couldn't do nothing, right? It's not surprising that they are delaying for their own interests because of this virtue."
Peng Yuye looked strange and looked around and whispered: "My husband only knows one thing. They are not interested in logistics and supplies now because after the Guangzhou victory, the generals generally have morale. At this time, Nong Zhiguang is like a loser. As long as he dares to pursue, he will probably not lose and will have some credit. Then in the future, the court will ask them about Chen Bing Qingyuan and fail to leave, he will have a remark."
Wei Guan sighed, and there was nothing he could do if he didn't want to admit it. This is the reality. Even if the country is in trouble, it will not affect everyone's little thoughts.
"Since that's the case, why haven't they raised an army yet?" Wei Guan was very curious about this.
Peng Yuye clasped his fists and said, "The husband doesn't know anything. Su Yan and Zhang Zhong have serious differences on this point. Su Yan is a literati and is too timid. He tends to wait for Di Qing's main force, or wait for Zhao Ping'an's troops to reorganize and then follow the battle. He also recommends that Zhang Zhong, a military officer in Guangdong, is a military minister, and advocates seizing the opportunity to make contributions before Di Qing and Zhao Ping'an's troops to reorganize and resist the post-war liquidation."
"I see."
Wei Guan knew it well.
This involves the contradiction between civil and military affairs, which is a wrong layout by the Privy Councilor Gao Ruona.
At that time, Guangxi was basically in danger, and Guangdong was in danger, and there was no way to do anything. Gao Ruona recommended General Zhang Zhong to lead the Guangdong cavalry and infantry military. So in theory, in the war against Nong Zhigao, the Yingzhou magistrate Su Jian and Guangzhou magistrate Wei Guan both became temporary subordinates of Zhang Zhong.
The problem lies in the fact that the military officials had no sense of existence, especially in this Guangzhou offensive and defensive battle, Zhang Zhong's performance was not even as prestige, and he could not even pass the exam, but was only better than deserters.
Under such circumstances, almost no literati could defeat Zhang Zhong's general.
What's more, it was at this critical moment that there was a major political change in the court. The Privy Councilor Gao Ruona was no longer in the prime minister. Now he is the former Privy Councilor Pang Ji, who gathers great power, and is the same as the Central Secretariat and the Privy Councilor.
Since Gao Ruo, who praised Zhang Zhong, stopped looking, no one listened to Zhang Zhong.
In addition, although the establishment and specifications of Zhao Ping'an's ministry are low, they are only "county-level" and are the strongest team. Judging from the battle in Guangzhou, even if Di Qing's main force enters Guangdong, its combat power will not surpass Zhao Ping'an's ministry. In addition, Zhao Ping'an also has the handwriting of the Privy Councilor Gao Ruona, who is allowed to act cheaply and not be subject to military command of any unit.
The political rule is: unless Pang Ji denied Gao Ruona's arrangement at that time, the handwriting will continue to be effective.
Although Nong Zhigao was defeated in Guangzhou, it is estimated that the Southern Army lost more than 7,000 people in the entire Guangzhou offensive and defensive battle. However, most of the main forces are still there. As long as Thanong Zhigao has the ability to restore morale, it is still a big threat to the Guangdong-Guangdong-Guangdong region.
At the same time, Di Qing, the Guangdong-Guangdong Propaganda Envoy who had been ordered by the emperor to hold the sword of the emperor, threw 30,000 yuan to hold the Japanese army out of the battle, but there was still no trace.
From this point of view, the initiative in the war has changed hands, but the battle to set the Guangdong Province is still hanging and intertwined.
According to Peng Yuye's ideas, Wei Guan could almost now think that the political game between Di Qing's army, Su Jian's army, Zhang Zhong's army, and Zhao Ping'an's army would also unfold. Behind these people, there were one or two great gods.
As a disciple of former Prime Minister Wen Yanbo, Wei Guan felt that Wen Yanbo's letter was probably about to arrive in Guangzhou, right? It must be a "suggestion" to drag Di Qing back.
"Then do I, Lao Wei, listen to the 'mend teacher', or don't listen to the mentor?"
