Dajin royal family

Chapter 529 Xu Country Crisis (Thanks to Pangu Xiyue for the reward)

The battlefield in the Central Plains was extremely empty, and Yu Wenhuaji and Yu Wenzhiji commanded [-] soldiers and horses respectively, and they surrounded the Northern Jin army in a "cursive moon" formation.

They pay for their own troops far surpassing the Northern Jin Dynasty, as long as the Northern Jin Dynasty has the courage to enter the formation, they can make the Northern Jin Dynasty come and go.

Even though the Yuwen brothers had been defeated by Yuchi Jing several times, they would not think that they were inferior to Yuchi Jing.

This time [-] to [-], they are still very confident.

Yuchi Jing stood on the general platform, with his hands covering the curtain, squinting his eyes to see Xu Jun's formation.

Crescent moon formation, a typical formation prepared to deal with cavalry.

On the periphery of the formation are shield soldiers and pikemen, and the defensive cavalry forcibly breaks through their formation. In the middle are crossbowmen and infantry, and the rear defense is relatively weak.

"Interesting." Yu Chijing chuckled, and immediately took out a triangular flag and waved it slightly. Seeing this, Ling Ling, who was always watching the movements of the general below, immediately pulled out a marching flag beside him, and galloped towards the left phalanx.

The horseshoe stomped on, and the flag commander shouted, "Under the general's order, the second and third sons will move forward thirty steps on the left!"

Before the voice fell, three thousand cavalry immediately attacked and headed towards the left flank.

At the same time, Yu Chijing's general orders were issued in an orderly manner, and the [-] troops, in Yuchijing's eyes, began to move rapidly like black dots, and there was no intersection between the armies, rushing to the position designated by Yuchijing.

Within half an hour, the formation was completed.At this time, Xu Jun was also close at hand, and the distance between the two sides was only fifty steps.

"Arrowers prepare!"

With a loud roar, the two sides shot each other a round of arrows with a tacit understanding.

Yu Chijing saw that the formation was in place, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he immediately pulled out the black flag and waved it a few times.

The sound of beating drums was loud, like 'fish scales', and the Northern Jin army in the shape of a 'valley' quickly condensed and rushed towards Xu Jun.

The crescent moon formation is just difficult to break, not impossible.

In the fish scale formation, the infantry is the first, and the cavalry is behind. It can break through the opponent's first layer of defense, and the latter is not a big problem for the cavalry.

When the two sides fought, the soldiers of the Jin army only attacked one point, ignoring the Xu army surrounded by the left and right sides, and had the courage to succeed or be benevolent.

Seeing this, Yu Wenhuaji immediately ordered the shield soldiers on the two wings to come back to help the Chinese army. They must not allow the Northern Jin to break through the defense, and at the same time let the two wings accelerate to encircle the Jin army.

Yu Chijing was on the general platform, and he could clearly see Xu Jun's movements. Now the two sides are gathering their forces to fight in the middle.

He immediately pulled out a small triangular flag behind him, raised it and waved it a few times.

In the rear of the Jin army, a cavalry force of 3000 was ordered to attack quickly, turning into a long dragon, skimming the periphery of the Xu army formation, and killing the opponent's rear army!
Yu Wenzhiji was equally aware of the shortcomings of the crescent moon formation. He received a cavalry force of about 3000 from the Northern Jin Dynasty coming towards the rear, and calmly ordered the soldiers who had already been prepared to meet the enemy. The two wings quickly surrounded the Jin army.

Time is passing fast, and the fighting on the battlefield has also entered a fierce stage.

Yu Chijing found that the cavalry he sent out to attack was stopped by the opponent, he seemed very calm, and immediately let the cavalry in the formation attack the left flank.

The left wing is in charge of Yu Wenzhiji!

The Northern Jin cavalry received the order, quickly withdrew from the center, and turned to rush towards the left wing.

Seeing this, Yu Wenhuaji was shocked, and quickly ordered the soldiers to stop him.However, the formation of the Northern Jin Dynasty has completely crushed them in the central part. Once the troops are divided to support the left wing, the central part will be broken.

Yu Wenzhiji was commanding the army to deal with the [-] sneak attacking cavalry at this moment, and he was about to win. He didn't want the left wing formation to collapse at this time, and the Northern Jin cavalry came to attack aggressively!

Seeing his own cavalry kill Xu Jun's rear, Yu Chijing smiled contemptuously.

"Yuwen, the formation is dead."

He shook his head, these two idiots were indomitable, and he didn't know how many times they lost to him because of this.

As Xu Jun's left wing collapsed, the Jin Army formally broke through in the middle of the battlefield. Following Xu Jun's formation chaos, the Jin Army rushed into the crowd and took the initiative.

"Army attack!"

Yuchi Jing got off the platform, rode on the horse, raised the horse spear in his hand, let out a loud roar, and led the rear army to rush forward.

As the formation collapsed, the Yuwen brothers had no choice but to order their troops to retreat. However, facing the wolves and tigers of the Northern Jin army, their retreat was not stable. They were brutally slaughtered by the soldiers of the Northern Jin Dynasty along the way. There are only more than [-] people left in the [-] army.

Of course, after collecting the fleeing soldiers, there should be about 7 people.

Fighting [-] with [-] is a disastrous defeat!
The two brothers were dejected, as if they didn't understand why the Northern Jin Dynasty's surprise soldiers still lost.

But right now they have to consider how to explain to their father the truth.

In Lei Ze's battle, Yu Chijing won again, but he was not at all happy, because the Yuwen brothers were not famous generals, and beating them was not something to be proud of.

Compared with Yu Wenhuaji and Yuwen Zhiji, that old guy Zhao Yong is really difficult to deal with.

He ordered the three armies to rest for a while, and on the second day the Jin army formally attacked Lihu, and took the city easily. Then he sent cavalry to chase and kill Xu Jun. A few days later, the Jin army went down to Puyang, Weinan, Huatai, and Weicheng. , Lingchang.

Xu Jun had to retreat to Xingyang Suanzao.

Considering that the battle situation on Chengshi's side was unclear, Yu Chijing didn't go deep.

Yu Chijing won the victory, but Wei Zhonghao and Zhao Jiao fell into a bitter fight when facing Zhao Yong.

Although there are not many cavalry under Zhao Yong's command, the command before the battle is very clear. The three armies highlighted the word "steady", dragging the [-] Northern Jin troops on the Cheng's battlefield to this side, making it difficult to advance.

Although Zhao Yong didn't lose, he knew that it would be difficult for him to take down Wei Zhonghong for a while.

Until the news of Yu Wenhua and his brothers' defeat came, Zhao Yong looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh, which seemed to contain extreme helplessness and anger.

Although he had already made mental preparations for this, he still couldn't help but have the idea of ​​'kill these two pustules'.

One hundred thousand beats sixty thousand, those who are killed lose their helmets and armor, lose their cities and lands, only these two princes can do it.

Dongjun has already fallen into the hands of the Northern Jin Dynasty, and his attack on Wei Zhongzhen at this moment has lost its strategic significance.As a last resort, Zhao Yong could only order the three armies to retreat and return to Chenliu.

If he can meet Yu Wenhuaji and Yuwen Zhiji, he really wants to ask; why do you fight Yuchi Jing?
The news of the defeat of the two sons spread to Yu Wenshu's ears in a few days, he just felt dizzy, and there was a pent-up anger in his heart that he couldn't release, which made him extremely uncomfortable.

Why did they dare to stay and even take the initiative to trouble the Jin army when they were clearly asked to withdraw their troops?

In the imperial study room, Yu Wenshu had a shit-eating expression on his face, which was extremely ugly.

Xu Yixin couldn't bear it any longer, and came out and cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, a few months ago, because your two Highnesses underestimated the enemy and rushed forward, they were ambushed by the Jin army and defeated several times. Later, General Zhao Yong took command of the eastern battlefield to stabilize the situation. Now It is also because the two Highnesses did not obey the imperial decree and took the initiative to attack the Jin army again, which led to this defeat."

"Your Majesty, now that the Northern Jin Dynasty is stationing troops in Tongguan, Pei Yuanyan of Hanoi County is about to make a move, and the eastern battlefield is so defeated. If I don't handle it properly, I may follow in the footsteps of Li Yuan."

"My lord, I implore Your Majesty to recall the two Highnesses, and use General Zhao Yong to sit in Suanzao, command the army, and defend the Jin army in the Central Plains!"

Xu Yixin's words were precise and sincere.

In addition to him, other officials also agreed.After all, these two His Royal Highnesses have more than failed to achieve success, because of them, the Central Plains battlefield lost soldiers and generals.

It's fine in the past, but what's the situation now?
There were two armies in the Northern Jin Dynasty who were able to enter Luoyang in a short period of time. How could they not be angry?
Yu Wenshu himself felt blush for his two sons. Hearing Xu Yixin's remonstrance, he immediately summoned the imperial decree, with Zhao Yong as the main general to sit in Suanzao to resist the Northern Jin Dynasty, and recall the two sons to Luoyang.

"Everyone, now that the Northern Jin Dynasty is approaching menacingly, do you have a plan to defeat the enemy?" Yu Wenshu was also a little flustered at this time.

The situation at Tongguan is unclear, and the eastern battlefield has suffered such a big defeat. If one is not careful, the Northern Jin soldiers leave Tongguan, what will he do then?
Are you going to dispatch Meng Jindu's army to Tongguan?
What about Pei Yuanyan from Hanoi County?
What about the Eastern battlefield?
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, he really wanted to catch his two sons and slap them a few times.

At this time, another staff member stepped forward. This person's name was Ge Qiu, and he was a counselor who followed Yu Wenshu very early on. Like Xu Yixin, Yu Wenshu valued him as much.However, Ge Qiu is better at managing politics and rarely gets involved in the military.

But at this moment, the situation that Xu Guo is facing is extremely dangerous. If he does not handle it properly, he may be destroyed. He has to stand up and find a way.

"Your Majesty, all ministers, please be calm and don't be impatient." Ge Qiu first said a word of comfort, and then analyzed: "Your Majesty, according to the news, this time the Northern Jin Dynasty mobilized 20 troops to fight, [-] in the Central Plains, and [-] in the Guanzhong. , From the beginning of the year to the present, no matter how much food and grass the Northern Jin Dynasty has, it is impossible to support them to continue to attack our dynasty."

"At the same time, Guanzhong will not be settled soon, and the Northern Jin Dynasty will inevitably spend time stabilizing Guanzhong. They will not ignore the important task of stabilizing Guanzhong and forcefully attack us."

Yu Wenshu nodded again and again, "Aiqing is right, so the Northern Jin Dynasty will stop fighting?"

Ge Qiu shook his head, "If the eastern battlefield is undefeated, the Northern Jin Dynasty will not act easily. After all, in order to win Guanzhong, Jiang Chengxiao had already asked Yu Chijing of the Central Plains to retreat. But now it is different. Jiang Chengxiao knows that our eastern battlefield has been defeated. He will definitely send troops to Tongguan to test, and even let Pei Yuanyan of Hanoi County attack Henan County together, intimidating the eastern battlefield army to return to help, so that we will lose cities and territories in the east. If we do not return to help, he will take the opportunity to attack Henan County."

Xu Yixin said impatiently: "Master Ge, we all understand what you said, now we should think of a way to make the Northern Jin retreat!"

He also understands the analysis. It is nothing more than the issue of military containment. Now they need to find a way to solve the immediate crisis instead of analyzing the situation.
