Chapter 510 Hanzhong

Chapter 510 Hanzhong (Addition 1011 for the silver lord "niema")

Why is Hanzhong important?

Because the Qinling Mountains cut across the north of Hanzhong; the Daba Mountains cut across the south of Hanzhong, and there is only one basin in Hanzhong.

In terms of east-west traffic, it can enter Qishan Mountain in the west and go down the Yangtze River in the east;

In terms of north-south transportation, every Shu road must pass through Hanzhong.

Whether it is the Chencang Road, Baoxie Road, Tangluo Road, Ziwu Road passing through the Qinling Mountains; or the Jinniu Road, Mi Cang Road, and Lychee Road passing through Daba Mountain...

When the Song Dynasty went south, Zhang Jun wrote a letter to Emperor Gaozong of the Song Dynasty, saying that "Hanzhong is a place of great shape, and the divisions of the six roads are controlled in the front, and the millet of the two rivers is occupied in the back. The wealth of Jingxiang is passed on the left, and the horses of Qinlong are brought out on the right. The command of the Central Plains must be based on this! "

Emperor Gaozong of the Song Dynasty did not agree to set up the trip in Hanzhong, but let Zhang Jun manage it.

Zhang Jun reused Wu Jie again, and the Dasanguan monk Yuan Dasheng won, which made the Song Dynasty form a long snake defense line in Hanzhong, Sichuan-Shaanxi, Jingxiang, and Jianghuai, and ensured the peace of the Song Dynasty for a hundred years.

At the time of the battle between Meng and Jin, the Kingdom of Jin used heavy troops to strangle Tongguan and guard the Yellow River, making it impossible for Genghis Khan to conquer it.

Afterwards, Wo Kuotai united with the Song Dynasty, passed through Hanzhong, went down the Han River, left Nanyang, and then went north to join Tuolei, besiege Kaifeng, and destroy gold...

If it is said that Sichuan and Shu live in the upper reaches of Jingxiang, Hanzhong still lives in the upper reaches of Sichuan and Shu.

It is surrounded by mountains, the passes are dangerous and solid, and the road to Shu is difficult; at the same time, it extends in all directions, with crisscross rivers and vast fertile fields.

Battleground.

At this time, everyone who frantically rushed to Hanzhong understood these truths...

~~
On the 23rd of the first month.

Zhang Sheng stood at the gate of Mi Cang, looked south, and saw countless Mongolian troops coming to kill here again on the mountain road ahead.

He has led the troops to guard here for eighteen days, resisting Mo Ge's more than [-] Mongolian troops...the real Mongolian troops who came from the grassland.

Just the day before yesterday, Wang Zhongchen had led more than 5 Mongolian and Han troops here, making the Mongolian army as many as [-] troops, stretching for dozens of miles on the narrow mountain road.

Lu Wende's 81 elite troops were still unable to withstand this Mongolian army.And under Zhang Sheng's command, there are only [-] people left.

"Those who can still breathe, move..."

Zhang Sheng leaned on the knife, took two steps with difficulty, and pointed to the crenel on the Guancheng in front of him.

"Old Ma, you lead ten brothers to guard here, and kill at least one hundred Mengta..."

"Commander, we only have seventeen arrows left."

Zhang Sheng was stunned for a moment, then grinned with a cracked mouth.

He stopped giving orders, and remained silent for a long time before saying, "Brothers, let me sing you a song... General Zhang taught me before departure."

"Hey, Commander's voice, what's so good about it?"

Zhang Sheng ignored them and began to sing.

"Liu Bang ordered the construction of a dam pass, and the beautiful water circulates like the south of the Yangtze River. It is tightly locked on the Sichuan-Shaanxi North-South Road, and it is not a hero that cannot knock on the pass..."

The voice was hoarse, but gradually became louder in the end.

Zhang Sheng was yelling and cursing against the Mongolian army who came.

"If you're not a hero, don't knock off!"

In fact, what Zhang Jue ordered him to seize was the Dam Pass further south, so that if he couldn't reach it, he could take a step back and retreat to the Mi Cang Pass.

But the Mongolian army came too fast, and Zhang Sheng didn't have time.

As of now, he has nowhere to retreat.

He could only face the Mongolian army in this hoarse singing.

"Kill!"

Song Jun shot arrows and smashed stones...

Micang Pass is extremely dangerous, and it is known as "a pass that locks Shaanxi, Sichuan and Guizhou". Although the Song army only had dozens of people, they resisted the Mongolian army for half a day.

But today, it is not the Mongols from the grassland who are not familiar with mountain warfare who are attacking the pass.It was the Mongolian Han army under Wang Zhongchen who had been shuttling through the mountains and forests for many years.

They exhausted the arrows of the Song army and climbed up.

"Poke it down!"

Zhang Sheng roared angrily, and kept stabbing with his spear.

However, there were few soldiers in Song Dynasty, and finally the Mongolian army came to the critical point.

"puff……"

Zhang Sheng fell into a pool of blood.

He stared unwillingly, and saw a line of inscriptions on the stone wall.

"On February [-]th of the third year of Shaoxing in the Song Dynasty, the gold thief invaded Hanzhong, and the archer Ren Rong resisted the enemy..."

This was engraved by people like him more than a hundred years ago.

From generation to generation, there are always Song people who are unyielding.

So with the last bit of strength, he raised his bloody hand and wanted to write something behind.

He wants to write the names of all the soldiers under his command.

But Zhang Sheng found that he couldn't remember what Lao Ma's name was. For many years, he had been calling him Lao Ma...

"puff."

A Mongolian army walked by and made up for it.

……

In the evening, Brother Mo finally boarded Micang Pass.

"March overnight! Support Hanzhong!"

~~
On the 26th of the first lunar month, the main force of the Mongolian army finally left Micang Road.

Looking across the Han River, I saw a dilapidated Song Army flag planted on the head of Hanzhong City.

Fortunately, there are still three Mongolian army camps outside Hanzhong City.

The dust was flying in the north, and small groups of cavalry flowed into the Mongolian army camp from time to time.

……

"what happened?!"

As soon as Brother Mo entered Wang Liangchen's camp, he was extremely displeased when he opened his mouth.

"Zong Wang."

Wang Liangchen quickly bowed down and said, "I lost Hanzhong, I'm guilty!"

When Brother Mo saw this situation, he couldn't say anything. He glanced at Wang Zhongchen behind him and said, "Get up, I'm not sweating profusely. It's useless for you to apologize to me. What's going on?"

Only then did Wang Liangchen stand up.

He was only 28 years old, but he looked extremely emaciated, not because of frailty.

Wang Liangchen had the best relationship with his second brother Wang Dechen, so he was appointed as the commander-in-chief of Quanchei. Simply put, he was temporarily acting as Gongchang so that Wang Dechen could concentrate on managing Lizhou.

Meng Ge attacked Shu, because Wang Liangchen had done a lot in Gongchang, so he was transferred to the Hanzhong Garrison to handle the food and pay of the army.

After learning that Wang Dechen had died in battle, Wang Liangchen became sick with heartache. Unexpectedly, he was still sick, so he lost Hanzhong.

……

"A year ago, I got the battle situation. I heard that Li Xia, who killed my second brother, was attacking Lizhou, so I sent tens of thousands of troops to support it. Unexpectedly, a Song army attacked from Lizhi Road. When the sentry horse arrived, they I have crossed the Han River. I ordered the closure of the city, and the northern city has been attacked.

The one who attacked Hanzhong was Song general Zhang Jue. He was brave and brave. With only 200 people pretending to be a rout, they scattered and detoured to the north of Hanzhong.When most of the Song army arrived, they immediately killed them. 200 people all armed with big axes, the offensive was fierce.At that time, there were only a few thousand miscellaneous soldiers in Hanzhong City..."

At this point in Wang Liangchen's words, Wang Zhongchen has stepped forward to speak for his younger brother.

"King Zong, Hanzhong is not like Lizhou, which is located in a place where Zhao and Song were at war. There has been no war for ten years. When the Great Khan personally conquered, he took away Hanzhong's troops, and Li Xia attracted tens of thousands of people..."

Brother Mo was impatient and said, "I know, let's continue."

Wang Liangchen said: "At that time, I hurriedly led the army to take back the city gate. I didn't expect... Zhang Jue was brave and cunning. I just went down to the top of the city, and he shot a cold arrow. After that, a large group of Song troops entered the city. I was powerless After grabbing back the city gate, they had no choice but to retreat into the inner city. They fought fiercely with the Song army for five days, but the soldiers mutinied and had no choice but to withdraw from Hanzhong.

But please believe me, King Zong, I have defended the city desperately, and the Song army has nearly 2 people, and it also suffered heavy casualties.It was a battle, I got four arrows from the Song Army, but Zhang Jue also got two arrows from me..."

When Wang Liangchen said this, he untied the armor on his body and tore off the cloth that wrapped the wound.

Brother Mo glanced over, and saw an arrow hole in Wang Liangchen's chest, almost hitting the vital point.

What Wang Liangchen said was simple, but the battle was obviously extremely tragic.

Song general Zhang Jue...During the Battle of Diaoyu City, Brother Mo had also seen the opponent's brave strategy.

Wang Liangchen was still ill, his troops were insufficient, his soldiers were low in combat power, and the city gate was robbed, but he was able to fight Zhang Jue to such an extent, he could be called a fierce general.

"Don't blame Marshal Wang, no one thought that Song people would attack Hanzhong." Brother Mo knew very well that he had to continue to win over the Wang family.

"Please rest assured, King Zong. Although the last general temporarily withdrew from the city, he immediately dispatched the defenders from all over Hanzhong. At present, the soldiers and horses from the fourteen counties have arrived and surrounded the city of Hanzhong, so that the Song army can no longer send troops to garrison the passes of the Shu Road... ..."

This is a fortune in misfortune.

Hanzhong City, that is, Xingyuanfu City, can be used as a stronghold to control the entire Hanzhong.But fortunately, the Song army's foothold was unstable, and they had just captured Hanzhong. They couldn't block the Mongolian army if they couldn't send troops to strangle all the Shu roads.

The Mongolian army still had a chance to annihilate this exhausted Song army and regain Hanzhong.

Brother Mo also breathed a sigh of relief, thinking about it, it was a fluke for the Song Army to capture Hanzhong City with such a small force.

"Get ready to attack the city. Hanzhong must be recovered as soon as possible, the sooner the better."

……

After the discussion between the generals was over, Mo Ge dismissed the others, leaving only Abachi and the generals of the Han army.

"Finally, I have withdrawn from Sichuan and Sichuan. You all know that there is one more important thing..."

~~
Above Hanzhong City, Zhang Jue watched the Mongolian army launch an offensive, knowing that his brother Zhang Sheng was dead.

Before he attacked Hanzhong City, he divided his troops to guard Jinniu Road, Micang Road, and Lizhi Road.It was planned to send troops to support after the city was captured.

But I didn't expect heavy casualties, so far there are only more than [-] fighting strength left.

Moreover, Wang Liangchen surrounded him with cavalry, and reinforcements could not be sent out at all.

On the contrary, the Mongolian army has more and more troops...

Zhang Jue didn't dare to expect Li Xia to break through the Lizhou army to come to his rescue, nor did he think that the Chongqing government would dare to send troops again.

He finally understood why Yu Jie voluntarily withdrew from the campaign to regain Hanzhong when the battle had been achieved.

After all, Da Song's strength is insufficient...
