Reborn in the late Northern Wei Dynasty

Chapter 436 Dongliang Mountain

Outside Xunyang City, Xiao Yi looked at the 5 horses brought by Xiao Lun, and couldn't help but lament the sixth brother's militarism. He was able to allocate a small part of his troops to stay in Jingnan, which is outrageous.

Xiao Lun is indeed cruel and unkind, disobedient and unfilial, but this person is not without merits. In the past, he despised money and loved soldiers, but now he is destroying his family and recruiting troops, which is why he has such strength.

On the other hand, Xiao Yi could only draw [-] soldiers to participate in the Eastern Expedition.

Xiao Lun thinks that raising troops together is equivalent to brothers doing business in partnership, whoever pays more will have to take the lion's share afterwards.

But Xiao Yi felt that his elder brother had many soldiers, but although he had only [-] soldiers under his command, he was an elite soldier. After entering Jiankang, he would naturally have the last laugh.

The two of them had a tacit understanding and did not express their thoughts to each other, so they couldn't have a conflict before sending troops.

On May 5th, [-] troops under the command of Shaoling King Xiao Lun and [-] soldiers under the command of Xiangdong King Xiao Yi, a total of [-] troops swore from Xunyang and marched eastward.

As for Jiankang, Nanliang Emperor Xiao Gang originally ordered the veteran Yang Kan to command the capital soldiers Ma Xijin, but Yang Kan suddenly fell ill and fell ill. The old general died of illness before the war at the age of 56.

Xiao Gang didn't know that Yang Kan was in another time and space. He should have died of illness in Taicheng during the siege of Hou Jing two years ago.

Soldiers don't know generals, and generals don't know soldiers. Liu Zhongli didn't dare to attack rashly. After expressing his concerns to Xiao Gang, he proposed to garrison Liangshan.

After Anlu's defeat, Liu Zhongli was indeed a lot more cautious. If it were before, how could he care about these things when he regarded the heroes of the world as nothing.

But this change of commander really took a lot of time, besides Liu Zhongli's new appointment, the soldiers are not familiar with each other, and their prestige has not been established.

Because Hou Jing never caused troubles in the south of the Yangtze River, Wu Mingche, who was Xiao Gang's confidant, was never idle, and he never met Chen Baxian in Jingkou. This man who was called the No. Liangshan reorganized the army.

Secondly, the more important point is that Liu Zhongli is the minister of Xiao Gang's hidden residence. His father, Liu Jin, assisted Xiao Gang when he went out of the town in the early years, and Liu Zhongli followed his father to serve him. James thing.

At the same time, the defense of Bowang Garrison was strengthened, and he made up his mind to let Xiao Lun and Xiao Yi's coalition forces meet at the foot of Dongliang Mountain.

Li Bai's poem is written about the scenery here.

Xiao Gang considered for a long time, and finally chose Liu Zhongli to lead the army.

The person who recommended himself was Xiao Dacheng, the eighth son who was sent to guard the enemy. Xiao Dacheng was very different from his father, Xiao Gang, and the other brothers. He didn't like reading, preferred military affairs, had a rough and aggressive personality, and was good at bowing horses.

The two recommended by his confidants both had defeats. One was Xiao Yuanming, who was defeated in Bagong Mountain. Not sure.

Wu Mingche has a strategy in mind and a good strategy in his belly, but because Xiao Gang is the crown prince, he is afraid of arousing Xiao Yan's jealousy, so he can't put too many confidantes in the army. Therefore, Wu Mingche is now 47 years old, but he has never experienced a battle. Neighbors have won the name of benevolence.

"The gate of heaven interrupts the opening of the Chu River, and the clear water flows eastward to this point.The green hills on both sides of the strait face each other, and the lonely sail is approaching the sun. '

After the two coalition forces left Xunyang, the coalition forces did not encounter too many obstacles along the way because the imperial army was stationed at Bowang Mountain in Dongliang Mountain, and arrived west of Dongliang Mountain on the fourth day of June.

At the same time, he was secretly relieved, thinking that what he entrusted was not human.

After thinking about it, Xiao Gang also knew what Liu Zhongli said was reasonable, so he allowed him to station in Liangshan to defend against the enemy.

But he was unwilling to be poor, and worked hard to make progress. When he was an adult, he was favored by Xiao Yi.

However, Xiao Yuanming, the commander in chief, could hardly escape the blame for the ambush in Bagong Mountain.

At this time, the confidants of Qiandi recommended two people to him, and another person recommended himself.

Xiao Gang knew that since the defeat of Anlu, Liu Zhongli had learned from it all these years and changed his self-esteem. The two had known each other for more than [-] years, and they knew that Liu Zhongli did have military talents.

He also ordered Xiao Yuanming to lead the navy to respond.

The other was Liu Zhongli, who was ambushed by Murong Shaozong, Hu Luguang, and Gao Jishi outside Anlu City, and was also defeated and captured like Xiao Yuanming.

After Liu Zhongli led the army to Liangshan, while cleaning up military discipline and establishing prestige, he ordered the soldiers to connect iron chains and cut off the river road, so as to prevent small rebel troops from going down the river by boat at night and attack Jiankang.

One is that when Liu Zhongli served as the prefect of Jingling, he defended against Hou Jing's invasion several times. In terms of experience in land warfare, he was still much better than Xiao Yuanming.

On the other hand, after Xiao Lun and Xiao Yi raised their troops, they learned many lessons from their predecessors in history, and they knew that the rebellion in the Southern Dynasties required speed.

But the battle was imminent, and Xiao Gang had to change his generals before the battle, which really gave Xiao Gang a headache.

Xiao Gang knew his talent, but he was worried that he had no experience in leading the army, so he took Wu Mingche as his deputy to assist Liu Zhongli.

But marching and fighting is not as ruthless as being brave and fighting. Xiao Dacheng is only 20 years old and has no experience in leading an army in the past. Xiao Gang will pin his hopes for this battle on Xiao Dacheng no matter what.

After all, it can be said that the entire land of Huainan was lost by Xiao Yuanming in the Battle of Bagong Mountain. Of course, thanks to the flattery of the Northern Qi Dynasty, public opinion pinned the blame on the one-eyed Xiahou.

Xiao Gang worshiped Liu Zhongli as the governor of the capital, who supervised all the military forces in Gyeonggi, and ordered him to lead the troops to meet the rebels.

Compared to Xiao Yuanming, Liu Zhongli is Xiao Gang's own person, a true confidant.

At this time, in Liu Zhongli's army, there was a general named Wu Mingche, who was the son of Wu Shu, the general of the right army. He lost his father when he was young and lived in poverty.

Since ancient times, the emperor's most taboo thing is that the crown prince should take up wings in the army. This point, even Xiao Yan is no exception. The death of Yang Kan immediately put Xiao Gang in a difficult situation where no one can use him.

The Mount Liang requested by Liu Zhongli was not Mount Liang of Shuibo, which was within the territory of the Northern Qi Dynasty, but Mount Dongliang, also known as Mount Bowang, located more than [-] miles southwest of Gushu (Dangtu, Anhui). For Tianmen Mountain.

Only then did he have the choice to abandon Xiao Yuanming and use Liu Zhongli.

During the Yuanjia period of the Liu Song Dynasty, Tuoba Tao, Emperor Taiwu of the Northern Wei Dynasty, drank the horse Yangtze River and threatened to continue going south, so Liu Song set up a defense in Dongliang Mountain.

The coalition forces built camps on the spot, and facing the heavily guarded Bowang garrison, the two brothers Xiao Lun and Xiao Yi both made their own plans.

We all know that Bo Wang Shu is a tough stubble, Liu Zhongli's [-] troops stationed here, how can it be easily captured.

They also want each other and Liu Zhongli to fight and consume each other, and enjoy the benefits themselves. After all, when they enter Jiankang, the two brothers can't really share the world.

　I wish you all a Happy New Year.
