(Just like the chapter title, the alliance is really powerful and has the momentum to implement 2013. Like it!)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Wanyanchang was anxious, and Wanyan Zongfu regretted it.

Wan Yanchang was anxious because there had been no news from Taizhou. Judging from the itinerary, no matter how slow the Taizhou baggage army was, they would have entered the Gyeonggi area by the middle of the year. But now there is not even a shadow. What's going on?

What happened? His 30,000-strong army could barely maintain its morale by relying on this huge seizure and food. If there were any mistakes... I can't imagine what would happen to the army. There must be no mistakes!

What Wanyan Zongfu regretted was that he fought in this superfluous battle of Shaanzhou. He never thought that this move would stir up a hornet's nest - the fifteen thousand troops of Ba Lisu and Wulin Datayu (two thousand were lost in the battle, and they retreated overnight to death).

Fleeing three thousand) just retreated to Rope Pond, Thirty Thousand Days

The Zhu army surged out of Tongguan like wasps, and the leading five thousand cavalrymen surged past the south bank of the Yellow River like a tornado. Ba Lisu and others were so late that they left for a day and a half, and gave up the idea of ​​leaving again when they received the news.

The speed of pulling away was so shocking that I broke into a cold sweat.

Wanyan Zongfu was both regretful and anxious. He had a lot of time not to retreat before, but now the Japanese army launched a large-scale attack. Their troops were unprecedentedly powerful and unstoppable. It would not be easy to run away now.

On the day Wanyan Zongfu received the news of the defeat of Balisu and the Tianzhu Army leaving Tongguan, he immediately responded and issued an order from the Right Deputy Marshal's Office, informing the entire army: "Except for the Henan Army, all troops in the Gyeonggi region.

Advance from Zhouzhou, cross the river and return to the north. This is a life-and-death moment for our Eastern Route Army. The first priority of the entire army is to cross the river! The second priority is to cross the river, and the third priority is to cross the river!"

Two years later, in the same place, even in the same mansion, a marshal of the Jin Army shouted exactly the same cry as the one who stayed in Tokyo in the Song Dynasty: Cross the river! Cross the river! Cross the river!

The wonder of fate and the reincarnation of heaven have led to this.

Wanyan Zongfu's withdrawal plan is as follows: to withdraw quickly, Wulin Datai wants 20,000 troops (Luoyang originally had 5,000 defenders) to defend Luoyang. Fight with all his strength and buy time for the 40,000 East Route Army to cross the river. Wanyan Zongfu personally proposed one

Ten thousand troops crossed the river first to lead the army, followed by 20,000 auxiliary troops and transportation and baggage, and finally Wan Yanchang led 10,000 troops and horses to the rear. When necessary, Ba Lisu and Wulin Dataiyu were supported.

Such an arrangement is orderly and methodical. If it can be implemented smoothly, most of the soldiers and horses of the Jindong Route Army can safely cross the river and flee to the north. It is still expected to be realized.

Just as the Jin army in the entire Gyeonggi region was full of energy and actively preparing to move northward, in mid-March, bad news came one after another.

First, on the Luoyang side, the 35,000 Central Plains Group Army and the 2,000 Shaanzhou Army marched eastward, like the wind and the remaining clouds, and even descended into Shengchi and Xin'an. After that, it only took two days to defeat the four major forces in the west and north of Luoyang.

Guancheng, Chen Bing under Luoyang City.

On March 18, the Central Plains Group Army launched a general attack on Luoyang. Within an hour, they dropped five thousand kilograms of bombs, explosives, and kerosene bombs on the west gate of Luoyang. Various buildings and defenses on the top of the west gate of Luoyang were destroyed.

facilities, all

Countless people were destroyed. There was a sea of ​​fire above and inside the city. Let alone defense, there was no place to stay. The top of the city was full of overturned bricks, mud and stone tiles, countless mutilated limbs, bodies curled up like charcoal, and all kinds of odors filled the nose.

Disgusting.

Such a miserable situation in the Shura field, one more look at it will make you vomit bile, let alone defend it?

The outer city of Luoyang changed hands in one day. The Jin army lost thousands, and its morale fell to the bottom.

The next day, the Tianzhu Army attacked the inner city again, and Ulin Datai wanted to personally go to the city to command the counterattack to boost morale. After two days of fierce fighting, the gate tower headquarters at the head of the city where Ulin Datai wanted to be was collapsed by continuous explosions.

Lin Dataiyu and his escorts were all buried. After emergency exhumation, Wulin Dataiyu's arms, legs and ribs were all broken and he was vomiting blood. He was rushed to the rear to be with the dying Wanyan Yuying.

On March 20th, Luoyang fell and only held it for five days. It was far from the minimum half-month required by Wanyan Zongfu. Fortunately, the Jin army still had a certain amount of space and could fight back step by step, trading space for time.

The defeated Jin army immediately retreated to Hulao Pass.

Hulao Pass has been renamed Bishui Pass at this time. It is the gateway and important pass to the east of Luoyang. It is connected to Songyue Mountain in the south and the Yellow River in the north. The mountains are intertwined and become a natural danger. There is no need to elaborate on the danger of this pass. Everyone knows it. If this pass can be

If we make use of it, it won't be a problem to hold off the Heavenly Punishment Army for another three to five days. It's a pity.

What's more, Hulao Pass is used to defend Luoyang, and its defense focus is on invading enemies from the east. All important facilities in the pass are located in the southeast, but the defense status in the west is very weak - this is

Of course, Luoyang is to the west. If you don't defend Luoyang from foreign enemies, what kind of trouble do you want to make?

After the Central Plains Group Army occupied Luoyang, only one brigade was left to garrison, and they immediately pursued and killed them all the way to Hulao Pass. At this time, more than half of the 20,000 Jin army had been lost. On the same day, the troops who rushed to the Shaanzhou front line from Hulao Pass together

Of the three great golden generals, only one person, Ba Lisu, is left...

The weakly defended Hulao Guan Xiguancheng only withstood one day. The nearly 10,000 gold troops with no morale collapsed once again under the indiscriminate bombardment of the Tianzhu Army. Pull out the remaining troops and defeat the defeated generals quickly.

Retreat to Xingyang.

Xingyang is a famous city through the ages, and its defense facilities are very complete, but Ba Lisu knew that with the fierceness of the Tianzhu army's siege weapons, the thousands of men and horses in hand could not hold back for several days. If they retreated, they would reach Zhengzhou.

, and behind Zhengzhou is Kaifeng...

Ba Lisu realized that he had no way out - there were still seven days! At least seven more days!

He only has two lines of defense, 7,000 remaining soldiers, all his baggage and supplies, and no weapons or food. How can he survive for seven days?

Ba Lisu's army was defeated for three hundred miles, and four cities were lost in seven days. The army of 20,000 was beaten to pieces. And the Tianzhu Army has surrounded Xingyang and is approaching Zhengzhou, which is less than a hundred miles away from Tokyo City. This is shocking

The extremely frustrating and horrifying news had just reached the hands of Wan Yanchang, who was the commander-in-chief of the rear army. Wan Yanchang was considering whether to send troops to support, when a bad news came that made him collapse even more: Taizhou's large baggage army, the entire army was destroyed!

…

Back on the fifth day of March, the Tianbo Division on Qinlong Island detected that the main force of the Taizhou Jin Army had withdrawn north, leaving more than 10,000 troops to transport the baggage. This was an excellent opportunity, and according to Di Lie's estimation, "Tiger

"Plan" should be launched. This is the best time to cooperate with the Central Plains Group Army and launch a combined east-west attack.

The next day, Di Lie led the whole army to set off, escorting all the prisoners to leave Qinglong Island before embarking on the journey again.

On March 11, Yicigu's large army of baggage troops, which had just set off from Taizhou and headed north to Chuzhou, was surrounded by the Tianbo Division that descended from the sky. Although Yicigu had tens of thousands of soldiers, they were basically all signers and miscellaneous soldiers and other baggage vehicles.

The auxiliary soldiers, the regular soldiers were no more than a thousand, and the cavalry was no more than 200. On the contrary, the Tianbo surrounding him

Although there were only 2,000 troops in the division, they actually had an advantage in strength. What made Yicigu even more crazy was that the enemy troops who attacked him turned out to be his former subordinates. Khitan, Bohai and other captured soldiers totaled two

There were as many as 1,500 people. And the person commanding this army of prisoners was also a prisoner - Chi Zhanhui.

Most of Yicigu's subordinates were Khitan, Bohai, Yandi Han'er and other soldiers. A few months ago, both sides were in the same camp, scooping food from the same military pot. How could they succeed?

Seeing this, Zhang Rong summoned Chi Zhanhui and asked: "Are you a Jurchen?"

Chi Zhanhui lowering his head should be.

"That means you will not be soft-hearted when killing the Khitans and Bohai people."

Chi Zhanhui's thick body trembled, and he understood what Zhang Rong meant, that he wanted him to be the villain! But what can be done? How can a person not bow his head under the eaves?

Chi Zhanhui vented all his resentment on the captive soldiers and chopped down thirteen people in one go. His arms were sore from the chop. If one of his hands had not been crippled by Han Shizhong and he had used both hands, he could have chopped off more.

Under high pressure, the captive soldiers had to fight for survival. This kind of battle to the death is the most cruel. It is said that the battle will collapse and be defeated if not many people die. As long as there is one left and as long as they are not dead, you have to go.

If you don't go up, you die. Choose one of the two, it's very simple and very cruel.

Yicigu originally had fewer soldiers than Tianbo Division, and their morale was even worse. And facing these captive soldiers who had to fight for their lives, how could they have any chance of winning? When Yicigu made a last-ditch effort and sent 200 cavalry to flank the enemy,

Tianbo Division took decisive action and defeated the Jin Army's cavalry with dense bullets.

When the battle reached this point, Yicigu finally accepted his fate and fled alone, panicking like a bereft dog.

The remnant Taizhou army and nearly 10,000 soldiers surrendered to Tianbo Division, and all their baggage fell into the hands of Tianbo Division. This gift from Wan Yanchang was indeed a heavy gift.

However, Di Lie did not have the opportunity to accept Wan Yanchang's generous gift in person, nor did he share the joy of victory and harvest with his naval officers. He led the other half of the Tianbo Division, about 2,000 men, to split with Zhang Rong on Chongming Island.

Road, go north along the coastline.

The army sailed day and night, covering 700 miles in five days. When Zhang Rong led the navy to launch an encirclement and annihilation campaign against Yicigu, Di Lie was leading the fleet into Jiaozhou Bay. They stopped in Jiaoxi and landed for a day's rest to replenish supplies.

Set off again, heading north along Jiaoshui, across the Jiaozhou Peninsula, out to sea from Haicang, and into Laizhou Bay. After another two days of sailing, we sailed from the mouth of the Yellow River in the Bohai Sea into the Yellow River.

More than 20 warships and seven transport ships sailed upstream for 700 miles. On March 25, the warship fleet appeared on the Yellow River waterway outside Puyang City, the seat of Kaide Prefecture. Here, it is 100 meters away from the Huazhou Yellow River Bridge.

, only fifty miles.

At this time, what is the Jin Army in Kaifeng Mansion, or to be precise, Wan Yanchang doing?

Wanyan Zongfu led the army to cross the Yellow River first, and entered Liyang of the Anli Army to rest and standby. Most of the 20,000 auxiliary troops and baggage had also crossed. Wanyanchang, who was behind the palace, detached 5,000 troops and went to Xingyang for reinforcements.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the army arrived in Zhengzhou, they saw hundreds of Balisu's remnant soldiers running towards them in panic. Since Xingyang was completely surrounded, this time, Balisu was completely destroyed. Except for the backbone of the Heza cavalry,

Outside the team, all the other troops and horses were lost. After finally breaking out of the siege, only these five or six hundred horsemen were left.

"Stay for another three days. No matter what, we must stay in Zhengzhou for three more days!"

This was the message Wan Yanchang asked the reinforcements to bring to Ba Lisu. Ba Lisu, who was already haggard and inhuman shape, had no expression other than a dumb nod.

"The Jin Army is transporting baggage on the Yellow River Bridge. There are still five thousand Jin troops in Tokyo City. The leader is Jin Guo Marshal Zuo Jianjun Wan Yanchang."

When Di Lie got the news from the detective, he breathed a sigh of relief. He traveled for more than 20 days and traveled 2,000 miles. Finally, he was not in vain and finally caught up.

Cutting off the Jin army with a knife in the middle, and strangling all the remnants of the Jin army stranded south of the Yellow River. This was Di Lie's strategic intention to lead the army fleet in this large circle.
