Chapter 409 Surprise Attack on Dali
Fan Zheng looked around at the four chiefs. Although they acted very calmly, their subconscious nervousness could not be hidden from Fan Zheng, who had studied micro-expressions.
"My lords, you may have doubts in your mind, why is Fan leading his army here?" Fan Zheng said loudly.
"Please ask General Fan to clarify my doubts."
Song Wanzhang, the patriarch of the Shuidong Song clan, stood up quickly and said that although they did not openly rebel against the Song Dynasty, they were still local emperors. The Song Dynasty's decrees were not implemented in Juzhou, and the court might have been dissatisfied with them for a long time.
Fan Zheng said straightforwardly: "According to the order of the official family, I led the Chinese army to march from the east road, directly into the hinterland of Dali, capture Shanchan Mansion, and wipe out the Gao family in Dali in one fell swoop."
"Capture Shanchan Mansion and destroy the Gao family in Dali!"
While the heads of the four major families in Juzhou breathed a sigh of relief, they suddenly raised their heads with surprise on their faces.
No one expected that the Song Dynasty would send another large army to directly attack Shanchan Mansion, the base camp of the Gao family.
"Official sage! Now that Dali's army has been contained, no one would have thought that the Song Dynasty would suddenly send troops from Juzhou to attack Dali. The Gao family will be defeated in this battle." Song Wanzhang said respectfully.
The other three clan chiefs also expressed their respect. Although the Song Dynasty claimed to the outside world that it was to maintain the royal orthodoxy and help the Duan family of Dali regain the throne, everyone knew in their hearts that the Song Dynasty could not help the Duan family of Dali for no reason, and they might take the opportunity to plot Dali. This is the real intention of Song Dynasty.
Of course, no one dared to say it openly.
"Although Juzhou is relatively close to Dali, the mountains are high and the roads are far away, and there are dangerous connections. This strategy may be quite risky." Song Wanzhang frowned after changing his words.
As natives of Juzhou, they naturally know the terrain quite well. They are the closest to Dali, and they also know that the terrain at the junction of the two places is quite dangerous.
"This strategy was proposed by Fan. As you said, Dali's terrain is dangerous, so no extra precautions will be taken. This surprise attack can achieve miraculous results." Fan Zheng said directly.
"But…………."
Song Wanzhang wanted to say more, but Yang Changchun, the patriarch of the Yang family in Bozhou, immediately stood up and said: "I have heard for a long time that Fan Taicheng's evil side is invincible. Once this side comes out, the Gao family in Dali will inevitably be destroyed. Yang once again congratulates Fan Taicheng in advance."
Fan Zheng couldn't help but take a deep look at Yang Changchun. It seemed that the Bozhou Yang family was quite familiar with his affairs.
"The rebellious ministers and traitors of the Gao family will be punished by everyone. Fan's move is to do justice for heaven. I think the four clan leaders must have thought so too." Fan Zheng said calmly.
Suddenly the four clan leaders broke out in cold sweat, unable to understand the meaning of Fan Zheng's beating.
Song Wanzhang immediately assured: "Of course, in order to support General Fan's surprise attack, the Song family is willing to contribute two thousand tons of food and grass."
"We are willing to contribute a small amount and donate some food and grass."
Yang Changchun and the other two clan chiefs immediately expressed their support for Fan Zheng's two thousand tons of grain and grass.
"Then it would be disrespectful for Fan to refuse." Fan Zheng said with cupped hands.
Although the government-backed plan required a surprise attack and mainly obtained food locally, the four major families were quite close to Dali, so they would be well-prepared if they had supplies of food and grass.
"However, Fan is not in the habit of receiving favors in vain. Now there is a special event to repay the four clan leaders with wealth and wealth. I wonder if you are interested." Fan Zheng changed his words.
"Splashing the sky with wealth?"
The four chiefs couldn't help but be stunned and immediately looked at Fan Zheng.
If others had said this, they would have scoffed at it, but if the evil doctor Fan Zheng said it himself, they would have believed it.
You must know that the name of the evil doctor Fan Zheng has been well-known even in the southwest. The evil doctor Fan Zheng turned into a forensic doctor, spread all over the world in major hospitals, and made doctors prosperous.
He also created the Royal Bank, which controlled 20 million yuan of wealth. If he missed a finger, it would be comparable to the accumulation of the four major families in a hundred years.
Not to mention the proposal to open up the Maritime Silk Road, which made a lot of maritime merchants rich. Now the evil doctor Fan Zheng is the recognized God of Wealth in the Song Dynasty.
Now that the evil doctor Fan Zheng has come to the southwest, is it finally their turn to make a fortune?
"Please give me some advice, Mr. Fan." the four of them said impatiently.
Fan Zheng pointed in the direction of Dali in the southwest and said: "Now that the three armies of the imperial court are out, the destruction of the Gao family in Dali is a foregone conclusion. However, the Gao family has been able to control the power of Dali for a hundred years, and even attempted to usurp the throne. It can be seen that there are many party members in Dali. Fan I need the four major families to send at least 5,000 troops to follow my officer to attack Dali, and there is no need to hand over the captured items to the public."
"No need to hand over to the public!" Song Wanzhang suddenly exclaimed.
The other three clan leaders were also in disbelief. When they heard that the four major clans were required to send at least five thousand troops, they were very reluctant. However, when they heard that the captured soldiers did not need to be handed over to the public, their hearts suddenly beat.
Dali has been in peace for two hundred years. In addition, the climate is warm and suitable, and it is quite wealthy. Naturally, the four chiefs have heard about it. If they can follow the army of the Song Dynasty on the expedition, wouldn't it be like the Maritime Silk Road and the merchants who followed the Shenzhou to sea? There is no risk, only making money.
What's more important is that what they do is a business without capital, and they are well-deserved wealth.
Yang Changchun was moved in his heart and said: "General Fan said that at least five thousand troops would be sent. Can we bring more?"
"There is no upper limit! But each tribe must prepare their own food and grass." Fan Zheng said with a big wave of his hand.
"That's natural!" Yang Changchun nodded without hesitation.
"In this case, all the clan leaders should write a letter and go back to prepare manpower. The four of you will join me in sending troops to Dali." Fan Zheng said proudly.
"Ah! Are you going to send troops now?" The four chiefs could not help but be stunned and looked at Fan Zheng in disbelief. They did not expect that Fan Zheng was so urgent.
Fan Zhengdao said: "The plan to help Dali is a strange plan, and it will naturally be unexpected. If Dali gets the news and takes precautions, the effect of surprise attack will naturally not be achieved. Now that the troops and horses are gathered together, it will naturally be possible to send troops as early as possible." Dali was pacified in one day."
"But we haven't gathered the troops yet!" Song Wanzhang said cautiously.
"It doesn't matter. All you need to do is send the letter back. I believe the four tribes will gather their troops to follow." Fan Zheng said disapprovingly.
The four clan leaders couldn't help but remain silent. They understood that it must be the evil doctor Fan Zheng who was trying to prevent them from informing Dali so that Dali could be prepared.
Yang Changchun solemnly said: "Fan Taicheng made such an arrangement, and we naturally agreed to it. However, although Dali was empty in the rear, it was not unprepared for the Song Dynasty. A stone city pass was built between Juzhou and Marble City County! The terrain is dangerous and easy to defend. It is difficult to attack, and I am afraid it will be difficult to win in a short time.”
"Shichengguan!"
The other three clan leaders couldn't help but hold their breath. They often communicated with Dali and were naturally familiar with Shicheng Pass. If they attacked by force, they would probably suffer heavy losses.
Fan Zheng smiled slightly and said: "A small stone city pass can still block the Song army's troops."
Yang Changchun reminded: "Fan Taicheng is like a god with his troops. We have also heard that the Shicheng Gatekeeper will be loyal to Dali and there is no possibility of bribery. Moreover, the Song Dynasty and Dali are at war, and the Shimen Gate Gatekeeper will definitely have something to do with the Song Dynasty." Be on guard.”
Fan Zheng said loudly: "Since you have heard of Fan, you naturally know that Fan is best at gunpowder weapons!"
"Gunpowder weapons!"
The four chiefs couldn't help but feel a shiver in their hearts, and couldn't help but think of the legend that Fan Zheng used the thunder to defeat Xixia in Pingxia City.
"As soon as the sky-shattering thunder comes out, the era of fortified cities is a thing of the past." Fan Zheng said with emotion, adding sugar to make more powerful gunpowder weapons is his biggest trump card, and also his biggest daring to carry out the conspiracy. Confidence.
He brought a large amount of gunpowder with him on this trip south, and there will be a steady stream of gunpowder shipped in the future. This time he wants to make the power of gunpowder known to the world.
"Come here, please immediately ask the clan leaders to write a letter. Remember, if the news leaks to you and the surprise attack on Shicheng Pass fails, then Fan's thunder will probably be used on you. I wonder if your walled city can withstand the earthquake. Thunder." Fan Zheng warned. "We will follow the Song Dynasty to the death." The four clan leaders suddenly became frightened and said in unison.
The four people immediately wrote a letter and gave it to Yang Bangyi for review before sending someone to pass it back to the clan.
"Send the order, and the whole army will set off to surprise Shimen Pass!"
After doing all this, Fan Zheng gave the order directly.
If an ordinary general were to march for such a long distance, he would have been exhausted and had to rest on the spot. However, Fan Zheng understood that the protagonist of this battle had changed from soldiers to gunpowder. As long as gunpowder weapons could explode, the Song Dynasty soldiers would be invincible. .
........................
Outside Shicheng Pass, in the dense forest.
Fan Zheng held the telescope modified by a doctor and looked at the soldiers who were loosely closed in Shicheng. He couldn't help but nodded slightly.
Although Dali and the Song Dynasty are at war, the main front lines in Dali are now in the direction of Tubo and Sichuan. The defense of the east road is not strict at all, and the patrol of soldiers is also perfunctory.
"How many guards are there at Shicheng Pass?" Fan Zheng asked.
Yang Changchun replied: "Reporting to General Fan, there are two thousand defenders at Shicheng Pass."
"Two thousand defenders?" Fan Zheng nodded. This was similar to the information he had received.
"General Fan, I am willing to be the vanguard and capture Shicheng Pass!" Yang Bangyi said eagerly.
Fan Zheng shook his head and said: "Since it is a surprise attack on Shicheng Pass, it is natural to focus on a strange word. If it is a frontal attack, casualties will naturally be inevitable. After night, he will lead thousands of elite Song troops to quietly approach Shicheng Pass and blow open the city gate. Take Shicheng Pass!"
"I will obey your orders!"
Yang Bangyi cupped his hands and said that he was sure to capture Shichengguan with a frontal attack. If he attacked at night, his winning rate would increase by 30% out of thin air.
"Four clan chiefs, don't worry, I'll stay at Shichengguan tonight." Fan Zheng said with a slight smile to the four clan chiefs.
"General Fan is mighty!"
The four clan leaders hurriedly cooperated, but they disagreed in their hearts. They thought that although Fan Zheng had great medical skills, he was too young to lead an army. In the battle of Pingxia City, Fan Zheng had the advantage of occupying the city and had the help of thunder. A lucky break.
But what we need to attack now is a dangerous pass. It may be too easy to win it in a night attack.
Fan Zheng could not deny it. He was quite confident in the Song Army. Now the Song Army had a sufficient supply of meat and no longer suffered from night blindness. In addition, there were explosive bags specially designed by the Firearms Supervisor to blast the city gates. The prison's experiment was enough to blast the city gate.
Intentionally or unintentionally, it was enough for the Song Dynasty to break through Shimen Pass in one battle.
..............................
That night!
Yang Bangyi led an elite Song army to quietly approach Shicheng Pass. As expected, Shicheng Pass was laxly guarded. It was not until the Song army was 200 steps closer to Shicheng Pass that any sentry suddenly noticed it.
"who is it!"
shouted the patrolling garrison of Dali at Shicheng Pass.
However, what he responded to was a divine arm crossbow arrow that went straight into his throat.
"Enemy attack!"
Only then did the other Dali defenders react and quickly shouted warnings. However, most of the defenders were still in the barracks. In an instant, the entire Shicheng Pass was in chaos.
"Quick! Immediately use the divine arm crossbow to suppress the defenders, and the blasters prepare gunpowder to blast the city gate." Yang Bangyi immediately ordered.
In an instant, the Song army no longer concealed its presence, and a group of divine arm crossbowmen began to shoot at the city wall, suppressing the few patrolling defenders.
A group of Song troops who had been prepared immediately rushed to the gate of Shicheng Pass with heavy explosive packs. They could even hear the urgent gathering of the Dali defenders inside Shicheng Pass.
As explosive packets piled up at the gate of the city, a Song Army expertly picked up the explosives and was sure to lead the line.
At the moment, the Song Army saw this, and the enemy immediately retreated backwards. Even the Song Army who was attacking with the Divine Arm Crossbow was no exception. The Song Army who had no time to retreat directly crawled on the ground to reduce the damage.
"What's going on, where is Song Jun?"
The Shicheng gatekeeper rushed to the city gate, only to find that there was peace outside the city.
"boom!"
Suddenly a dazzling fire came along with a huge sound, and the entire Shicheng Pass was shaken.
"Gunpowder! Gunpowder from the Song Dynasty."
The Shicheng gatekeeper would bear the brunt of the explosion shock wave, his footing was unstable, and he fell to the ground.
As a guard, he naturally knew the Song Dynasty's most powerful weapon, gunpowder, but he did not know that the Song Dynasty's gunpowder weapons had reached such a powerful power.
"By the way, the city gate!"
The guard general of Shicheng Gate was shocked and quickly struggled to get up. Hearing the sound, he knew that the focus of the Song Army's attack was the city gate.
"General, the city gate is broken!" a Dali defender said with a look of horror.
"broken!"
The guard of Shicheng Pass immediately stayed there. In his opinion, Shicheng Pass, which was so impregnable that one man could not open it without ten thousand men, was actually destroyed by a single blow from the Song army.
"The city gate is broken! Rush for me!"
When Yang Bangyi saw the success of the surprise attack, he was overjoyed and immediately ordered the attack.
At that moment, thousands of Song army elites immediately rushed into Shicheng Pass. Before the current Shicheng Pass defenders could figure out the situation, they were killed by the Song army and entered the pass.
Even if there was sporadic resistance, the army was quickly defeated under the attack of the Song Dynasty's new thunder.
"Shicheng Pass is over! Shanchan Mansion is in danger! Dali is in danger. I will never trust Mr. Gao!" Seeing that the situation was over, the guard at Shicheng Pass drew his sword and committed suicide in despair.
He served as the guard of Shicheng Pass because he was promoted by Gao Shengtai. Now that he abandoned Shicheng Pass so easily, he was naturally ashamed.
Moreover, he knew that the Song Dynasty had such powerful gunpowder weapons and had broken through Shicheng Pass. There were no more dangerous passes to Shanchan Mansion, the fiefdom of the Gao family, and Dali. In addition, Dali's heavy troops were restrained, and it was probably impossible to withstand the Song Dynasty. attack.
This time, Dali may be powerless. (End of chapter)
