Chapter 889 Recovering Jingzhou (5)

All troops are used.

All weapons and ammunition will be distributed forward.

When the enemy is about to enter the mountain pass, carry out a comprehensive blocking.

clap clap clap.
boom!boom!
This blocking battle is extremely important to both sides.

If the enemy breaks through, they can take advantage of the situation to attack the mountain pass and join the troops inside.

If he could not break through and was blocked by Tai Shici, Sun Yun would be able to wipe out the enemy army in the mountain pass, eating more than [-] enemy troops, and greatly weakening the enemy's effective strength.

When fighting again, the enemy's army will inevitably be weak.

In such an important battle, neither Tai Shici nor Sun Yun dared to be careless.

"Go and tell Sun Yun to finish the matter quickly. I can only block the enemy army for half a day. If he still can't win, just wait for the enemy army to join up and defeat us." Tai Shici shouted.

"Yes."

The soldiers ran back to the mountain pass and sent a message to Sun Yun.

Nanchang City Head.

Xu Ding inadvertently wiped off his cold sweat.

Through the satellite monitoring system, he clearly saw the battle at the mountain pass.

Sun Yun and Tai Shici's plan is beneficial to the battle situation, but it is also quite dangerous.

Once it fails, even Nanchang City will face threats.

"This battle cannot be defeated!"

Xu Ding told Guo Jia about the battle on the front line.

Guo Jia said in surprise: "Tai Shici and Sun Yun are too reckless. How could they let the enemy into the mountain pass? Isn't this leading wolves into the house? If they can't be stopped, the enemy will take advantage of the situation to attack and kill, and our army will be in danger."

"We should trust them."

Xu Ding also felt that Tai Shici and Sun Yun were reckless, but at this moment, there was nothing he could do but believe.

"Report."

Just when Xu Ding and Guo Jia were frowning, a soldier ran over, "Your Majesty, sir, the battle in the east is over, and the battalions are returning to the city."

"Understood. Go and call some teachers." Xu Ding said.

"promise."

The soldiers ran away.

Soon.

Generals at all levels have come to the top of the city.

Xu Ding asked: "How many soldiers are returning to the city?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, there are still more than [-] people." A teacher said.

"I have given you a task."

"Please order, Your Majesty."

"Take your people and quickly support the mountain pass in the south, assist Sun Yun and Tai Shici, and repel the enemies there. I will receive a good report within half a day."

Several division commanders and brigade commanders looked at each other, and clasped their hands together and said: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the last general will wait, and he will not disgrace his life!"

"Go all!"

"promise."

The generals will leave quickly.

Tai Shici and Sun Yun, who were fighting bloody at the mountain pass, cooperated with each other, not only blocked the attack of the two enemy divisions, but also wiped out more than [-] enemies inside the mountain pass.

The reinforcements sent by Xu Ding won the victory before they reached the mountain pass.

And sent someone to report to Xu Ding.

"This battle of dividing and encircling is well fought!" Xu Ding said excitedly.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty."

Both Jia Xu and Guo Jia breathed a sigh of relief.

The victory of this battle directly announced that the tens of thousands of reinforcements from the Western Shang Empire would no longer be able to break through the defense line at the mountain pass.They will face the promised heavy troops.

From the previous advantages to disadvantages.

at night.

The enemy retreated thirty miles.

Tai Shici arranged the defense at the mountain pass and sent people to watch the enemy camp.

He and the others will return to Nanchang.

in the chamber.

Xu Ding ordered someone to serve tea and motioned for everyone to sit down.

"After a day of fighting, we scored a breakthrough victory."

"Of the [-] enemies, [-] were wiped out one after another. The remaining tens of thousands retreated dozens of miles and set up camp. They are already under the surveillance of our army. As long as we launch another attack, we can wipe them all out."

"However, I am worried that they will flee timidly."

Speaking of this, Xu Ding's eyes widened, and he said in a deep voice: "So...we must surround the enemy before they run away, so that they cannot leave. Afterwards, we will order Jingzhou and Jiangxia's troops to move closer to Nanchang and annihilate them in one fell swoop. .”

"Your Majesty is wise..." the crowd said.

"Ah."

Xu Ding sat down slowly, and continued: "Victory is just around the corner, but I'm in a complicated mood..."

"Is Your Majesty worried about failure?"

Guo Jia seems to have seen through Xu Ding's heart.

"I can't tell." Xu Ding frowned, waved his hands and said, "Forget it, maybe I was thinking too much."

At the last moment of winning, Xu Ding was worried and afraid.

If you don't win, or let the enemy escape, there will be endless troubles in the future.

Thinking about the wormhole in Wu Jun made Xu Ding even more worried.

"Your Majesty, it is not too late. I suggest that we take action tomorrow morning to wipe out the remnants of the enemy outside the mountain pass." Jia Xu said.

"The minister thinks that we can wait a few days and send people to monitor the enemy. As long as they don't flee, we won't take the initiative to attack." Guo Jia said.

"Why?"

Jia Xu didn't react for a while.

Guo Jia explained: "We have to wait for reinforcements from Jingzhou and Jiangxia. With them participating in the battle, we will be more confident in annihilating the enemy."

"Following filial piety makes sense."

Xu Ding has always emphasized that the enemy must be wiped out.

And to do this, you need a lot of troops.

"Wenhe."

"The minister is here."

Jia Xu came out.

Xu Ding ordered: "As you draw up an order, let the troops attacking Jingzhou and the 17th Division stationed in Jiangxia allocate two-thirds of their troops to Nanchang. I will give them a deadline of five days. After five days, I want to be here, to see their troops."

"My minister obeys."

Jia Xu wrote an imperial decree on the spot.

Xu Ding sealed the jade seal and sent it to Jingzhou and Jiangxia.

Parliament ends.

Xu Ding received a secret letter.

This secret letter came from Xuchang.

To be precise, it was written by Xi Zhi.

In his letter, he said that more than ten years ago, Cao Cao proposed on his own initiative that he would lead an army of [-] troops into Jingzhou to fight in order to help Xu Ding and wipe out the troops of the Western Shang Empire.

Xi Zhicai thought that Cao Cao's troops were very poor in combat effectiveness.

Weapons and equipment are not enough.

Even if you go to Jingzhou, it won't work.

So, he declined for Xu Ding.

Afterwards, Xi Zhicai thought about it, and felt that Cao Cao wanted to imitate the Huaxia Kingdom, support war with war, and seize weapons and equipment, so as to take the opportunity to strengthen his own strength.

This shows that Cao Cao still has great ambitions. He wants to acquire new weapons to fight against Huaxia.

Xi Zhicai was worried that if Cao Cao was rejected in the open, it would make Cao Cao think of other ways to obtain weapons.So I asked Xu Ding how to deal with the relationship with Cao Cao.

"It's worth traveling thousands of miles for such a small matter. Send someone to send a secret letter." Xu Ding chuckled lightly, and put the letter aside without paying attention.

Guo Jia, who was standing in front of him, cupped his hands and said, "I wonder if I can take a look?"

"Look."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Guo Jia picked up the secret letter.

With just one glance, his brows furrowed into a ball.

"Your Majesty, how can this be a trivial matter? This is a major matter." Guo Jia said: "Cao Cao wants to change his weapons and become stronger. It means that sooner or later he will stretch his hands into the Central Plains."

"I don't see it that way."

Xu Ding still didn't care: "Cao Cao has ambitions, but he has no strength. What else can he accomplish? His 10,000+ army, in my opinion, is the source of our Huaxia Kingdom's soldiers. I can't spare now. Once If I have time, I will send a general to lead the army to conquer Hanzhong and turn Cao Cao's army into our army."

This idea did not come from Xu Ding's whim.

Rather, it was discussed with Jia Xu a long time ago.

Guo Jia was also there at the time and knew more or less about the plan.

at this time
Guo Jia also thought about it: "This plan can be implemented next year. However, what I am worried about is that Xi Zhicai rejected Cao Cao and refused to let him come to Jingzhou to fight, and Cao Cao is eager to obtain new weapons. Will he be here?" Using other means? I think that I have to guard against it."

Xu Dingdao: "The war between us and the Western Shang Empire is about to end. At this time, we can't make extra troubles. When we wipe out the Western Shang Empire's troops in the Jingzhou area, Yuyu clarifies that we can calm down the states and then discuss with Cao Cao. late."

"Yes."

Guo Jia nodded.

There are priorities, and the most important thing at hand is to eliminate foreign enemies.

It is true that there cannot be any friction with Cao Cao.

"Your Majesty, please write back a letter, so that Zhicai can stabilize Cao Cao first." Guo Jia said.

"No need." Xu Ding said with a smile: "I think... this battle won't last long, maybe within half a month, it will end. At that time, we will return to Xuchang as a teacher, so why bother."

Time passed unconsciously.

blink of an eye.

Already three days later.

The two divisions in Jingzhou and Jiangxia received the imperial edict almost at the same time.Let them quickly reinforce Nanchang.

Facing the imperial decree, the two teachers did not dare to neglect in the slightest.

They left a brigade stationed in Xiangyang and Jiangxia respectively.

Lead the remaining brigades to Nanchang as quickly as possible.

Until the evening of the fourth day.

Two brigades from Jiangxia entered Nanchang and joined Xu Ding.

The two brigades from Jingzhou crossed Jingnan and copied the enemy's rear route from southern Hunan.

Xu Ding gave the order for a full-scale attack.

Except for a brigade stationed in Nanchang and a regiment stationed in Shankou.The rest of the troops, whether complete or incomplete, were under the command of the first and second army headquarters, and launched a fierce attack on the tens of thousands of enemy troops outside the mountain pass.

Boom boom boom.
From the beginning of the battle, there was overwhelming artillery fire.

The powerful firepower makes people breathless.

The enemy's [-] people had already built fortifications, and after the early shelling, they also launched a full-scale counterattack.

But
At this time, they have lost their original confidence and belief in their hearts.

Fighting against the Huaxia National Army has its own fear.

The so-called timidity before fighting, how can we win?
The two armies fought fiercely on the plain for several days.

There were many twists and turns during this period.

The enemy broke through several times and almost succeeded.

Fortunately, the Huaxia National Army cooperated with each other and beat the enemy back.

After a hard fight, he finally hit the enemy hard.

Annihilated the enemy's one reorganized division and two miscellaneous brigades, totaling 4000 people.

This victory did not come easily.

It was Xu Ding, Guo Jia, Jia Xu, Tai Shici, etc. who fought hard for several days, at the cost of thousands of casualties, and won the victory.

After this battle, the remaining enemy troops were less than [-]. Their morale was low, and they were besieged in the camp, unable to advance or retreat.

Xu Ding dispatched all the troops, about six divisions and nineteen brigades.

Surround the enemy's camp with water.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty. The troops of the Western Shang Empire will soon be wiped out by us." Jia Xu and Guo Jia clasped their hands in the newly built camp.

"Hahaha."

Xu Ding smiled loudly: "It is thanks to the generals who worked together to defeat the powerful enemy."

"When you return to Xuchang in the future, you will all be rewarded!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty..."

No one expected that the final battle with the Western Shang Empire would go so smoothly.

In just a few days, half of the enemy troops were wiped out.

The remaining half are also depressed and have no intention of fighting again.

As long as Xu Ding gives an order, tens of thousands of troops will attack fiercely, and within three days, they will surely win a complete victory.

Xu Ding set up a banquet to celebrate in advance with all civil and military personnel.

It is also for the generals from Jiangxia to take the wind and wash away the dust.

After the banquet.

All the teachers and above stayed behind.

Xu Ding arranged tasks for them: "We all know that the iron must be struck while the iron is hot. The enemy is not interested in fighting now, but our fighting spirit is high and our morale is like a rainbow. This is the time when the gap in strength is the biggest. We have to take advantage of it." Take this opportunity to wipe out the enemy army in one fell swoop."

"Your Majesty, I have a suggestion." Guo Jia pointed to the map and said, "Why don't we launch an offensive against the enemy tonight, they will be defenseless."

"tonight?"

"Are you in a hurry?"

Xu Ding said: "I've sent an order to rest for a day, how can I go back on my word."

"Your Majesty, I think the words of filial piety are justified. Please imagine, your Majesty, our Jiangxia and Jingzhou troops have just arrived here. The enemy will definitely think that we will rest for a day or two, but we launched an attack that night. They If it is too late to fortify, you will be attacked by surprise."

"Although our army is also exhausted, the enemy army is also exhausted. The battle between exhausted soldiers depends on who can persevere. I believe that our Huaxia National Army will definitely win." Jia Xu also said.

"You all think so?" Xu Ding asked the other division commanders and column commanders.

Tai Shici, Sun Yun, etc. came out one after another.

Tai Shi said kindly: "The final general agrees to make a surprise attack tonight."

"Anyway, our troops have all come to Nanchang, and their military strength is three times that of the enemy's! The general believes that no matter when we launch a general offensive, we will win." Sun Yun said.

The rest of the teachers also expressed their opinions.

All in all, they all want to fight and end the war as soon as possible.

"Since you all want to make a surprise attack at night, I can't spoil your interest."

"Wenhe." Xu Ding called out.

"The minister is here."

"It's up to you to arrange for the elimination of the remaining tens of thousands of enemy troops thirty miles away. It is best to launch an offensive against the enemy camp at midnight and four o'clock. At that time, the enemy's vigilance is the most lax."

"My minister obeys."

Jia Xu was very excited to be able to command such a big battle.

He stepped forward and began to arrange.
Including the two brigades from Jiangxia and the two brigades from Jingzhou, which are currently stationed in the south of the enemy camp, will go into battle.

According to Jia Xu's instructions.

At one o'clock in the middle of the night, a large number of scouts were dispatched to monitor the surrounding tens of miles.Once the enemy scouts are found, kill them on the spot.

At the second watch, all the troops stationed in Nanchang left the city.

With the fastest speed, rushed to the enemy camp.

Because the scouts were sent in advance, the road ahead was scouted.

At this time, there is no need to worry about ambush when sending troops.

About an hour later.

Jia Xu personally led the army and arrived at the enemy camp.
