Southern Song Dynasty military god

Chapter 251
"The leading general of Jin Bing's vanguard wants to let go. You must be careful when Liu Wei goes here, and don't fall into the evil tricks of Jin Bing. Alas, I am really here."

"Master Hai Qing, don't worry, the general will act carefully in the end, so that the green hills will be left without worrying about no firewood!"

"Yan An, since you asked to go with Liu Wei, you must obey Liu Wei's order for this expedition, and you must not make mistakes, and you, Yang Zheng!"

At the military meeting just now, Wu Jie originally wanted to lead the troops to Raofeng Pass in person, but because of Chen Yuanyou's words, he dared not do anything.

However, Liu Ziyu had to be saved, not only because Liu Ziyu was the highest official in Hanzhong City and Wang Jun's senior aide, but more importantly, the relationship between the two was extraordinary.In a sense, it was precisely because of Liu Ziyu's recommendation back then that Wu Jie came into existence today.

Of course, as I said before, even if personal feelings are put aside, Wu Jie will go to rescue Raofengguan. If the Jin soldiers are allowed to break through Raofengguan and enter Hanzhong City, it means that the entire Bashu has opened its doors to the Jinren, and the Southern Song Dynasty guarded against it. The plan of Bashu completely fell through, and it has since been surrounded on three sides. At some point, the Southern Song Dynasty will not be far from destroying the country.

If there is no Liu Wei at this time, then Wu Jie will not think too much, even if there is a warning from Chen Yuanyou, he will still rush to Raofengguan to fight against the golden soldiers.

But it was precisely because of Liu Wei's participation that Wu Jie had a new choice.First of all, he has confidence in Liu Wei's strategy, and then he has confidence in the combat effectiveness of Liu Wei's soldiers and horses. Judging from his life's combat experience, Wu Jie is still a person who prefers to fight with his brain rather than his strength. .

And Liu Wei, just in line with his "aesthetics" in the art of war, that's why he even entrusted his beloved general Yang Zheng to Liu Wei.

Liu Wei, Yang Zheng, and Yan An are all generals under Wu Jie's command, each with a thousand soldiers, for a total of three thousand soldiers.

At first glance, it seems to be quite a lot. After all, the total strength in Wu Jie's hands is about [-] people. Among them, there are probably far less than [-] people who can really fight.

But how many Jin soldiers broke through Jinzhou and rushed to Raofeng Pass?
One hundred thousand!

This is the number reported by the Jinren himself, and it is also a summary of the information collected by the Southern Song court. It may be a bit exaggerated, but more than [-] must be a lot more.

Therefore, even though Wu Jie has great confidence in Liu Wei, wars are not determined by faith alone. With 3000 people facing tens of thousands of vicious golden soldiers, can Wu Jie not worry?

"The last general must obey Liu Wei's command and will never disobey orders. I hope you can rest assured!"

Yang Zheng and Yan An both made promises to Wu Jie, and only then did Wu Jie smile.

But then Wu Jie said again: "At this time, Raofengguan already has Ziyu's subordinate Tian Sheng guarding him, but he doesn't have many troops. After you go, Liu Wei, don't turn your back on the guest. I don't know Tian Sheng. I understand too well, if there is something wrong with him, you have to be more tolerant."

"My lord, you don't need to teach me these things. I know what to do. Let's go down and organize the team, hurry up and set off. It's three or four hundred miles to Raofeng Pass!"

Among all Wu Jie's subordinates, only Liu Wei would speak to Wu Jie in this tone, but this is Liu Wei's ability. Instead of being annoyed when he said this, Wu Jie would feel kind. To be honest, sometimes Even Wu Lin was jealous of Liu Chan, saying that Wu Jie treated Liu Chan better than his own son!
Every time Wu Lin said that, Liu Yi would always give him a punch: Isn't this obviously taking advantage of Liu Yi?

Liu Wei is not very clear about Liu Ziyu. He only knew from Wu Jie that Liu Ziyu had served as Zhang Jun's senior staff member after Zhang Jun came to Shaanxi. A large number of outstanding talents were recommended, including Wu Jie.

Sa Liyue headed towards Raofengguan non-stop, and at the same time, Liu Wei also led troops to set off.

Regardless of the fact that Yan An and Yang Zheng had been in Wu Jie's army much longer than Liu Wei, they were also older than Liu Wei, and even the soldiers and horses they led were the most elite group under Wu Jie's command, but as soon as they came out of Hechi , within a hundred miles, the situation became obvious.

Although the cavalry under Liu Wei's command was not fast, and even some of the cavalry's riding postures were not correct enough to save effort, almost no one spoke and chatted during the march. Hold the reins firmly to keep the cavalry in order.

On the other hand, the cavalry under Yan An and Yang Zheng seemed a little scattered, they could no longer walk side by side in rows, but in small groups, chatting and chatting.

Yang Zheng and Yan An scolded them a few times, but the effect was not very good, which made them feel a little embarrassed in front of Liu Wei.

Another hundred miles later, Liu Wei's soldiers and horses were still in formation, and some of Yang Zheng and Yan An's subordinates even opened their clothes and took off their hats to ride the wind. At a glance, they didn't look like an army!
In fact, these soldiers and horses were like this in the past. Yang Zheng's Yan An was used to seeing them and did not compare them, so naturally he didn't think so, but when he compared them with Liu Wei's soldiers and horses today, he immediately felt bad.

"Liu Wei, how did you train your soldiers and horses? Look at that," Yang Zheng raised his finger to a cavalry soldier beside him, sweat was dripping from the tip of his brow, but he didn't see him blinking.

"It's just out of training! Brother Yang, apart from the good brains of us generals, the more important thing about this battlefield is the training of soldiers! We must always tell the soldiers a truth. Less bloodshed, this is the mantra of the cross, I would not say it if it were someone else!"

"Sweat more in normal times and bleed less in wartime! Incisive, really incisive! I, Lao Yang, don't read much. It seems that in the future, the battlefields of the world will still belong to you young people, and it will still be yours!"

"What book is read less, you have never read a book at all!"

Yan An also came up to him at this time, and while teasing Yang Zheng, he asked Liu Wei, "It's already past noon, do you want to stop to eat and let the horses go?"

Looking up at the sky, Liu Wei said: "Forget it, the fat man didn't make it in one bite, so just do what Brother Yan said!"

After traveling for two hundred miles, Yan An and Yang Zheng once again felt the strict discipline of Liu Wei's soldiers and horses, and secretly vowed in their hearts that if they are still ordered to return after this battle, they must learn from Liu Wei and learn how to train soldiers and horses. is.

At this time, apart from Tian Sheng's army sent by Liu Ziyu, there was another team guarding Raofengguan, that was Wang Yan who had burned his savings in Jinzhou and fled back in a panic all the way.

In fact, it is not that Wang Yan is incompetent. Speaking of him, there is still a story.Among the records about Wang Yan, the "Bazi Army" should be considered the most famous.

The so-called "Eight-Character Army", this title was originally called out by the Jin people, and it refers to the soldiers and horses led by Wang Yan. "The four words are really similar in purpose.

The only difference is that the words on Yue Fei's back were stabbed by his wife, while the soldiers and horses under Wang Yan's command were stabbed by himself out of respect for Wang Yan.

At the beginning, Wang Yan had fought against Xixia twice with the Taoist Taoist, and made great achievements in battle.During the Jingkang period, Wang Yan abandoned his family and went to Hebei, where he joined Zhang Suo, the recruiting envoy of Hebei, and was exceptionally promoted to be the governor of the capital.At this time, the well-known Yue Pengju Yue Fei served as a lieutenant general under Wang Yan's command.

Soon thereafter, Wang Yan led Yue Fei and other 7000 people to forcibly cross the Yellow River, fought fiercely to regain Xinxiang, and achieved the first victory since crossing the river.The Jin people thought that the main force of the Song army had arrived, so they dispatched tens of thousands of elite soldiers to surround Wang Yan's army.

At this critical moment, Zhang Suo was demoted to Lingnan by the imperial court, and the Recruitment Department of Hebei West Road was revoked, so that Wang Yan and others became alone.Outnumbered and without foreign aid, Wang Yan could only order to break out.At that time, the situation was so severe that several generals fled with their troops. It was at this time that Yue Fei chose to leave because of his different strategies from Wang Yan's anti-golden methods.

Wang Yan, who had lost his official position, fought for dozens of miles, and in a fit of rage, he entered Xishan, Gongcheng, and became a rebel army.This is a rebel army composed of stragglers and local tyrants, but its combat effectiveness is not weak, which made the Jin people very afraid, and offered a high price to reward Wang Yan's head.In order to prevent accidents, Wang Yan always changes places when he sleeps at night.

At this point, his subordinates were moved by his utter devotion to resisting the gold, and they all stabbed the character "Serve the country with devotion and swear to kill the gold thieves" on their faces to show their loyalty to Wang Yan and Song Ting. The reputation of the "Bazi Army" gradually spread, and the Lianghe volunteers responded one after another. Fu Xuan, Meng De, Jiao Wentong, etc. all came to join, and the team expanded to 10,000+ people. The Jin army repeatedly carried out encirclement and suppression without success.

Wang Yan is loyal and wants to serve the imperial court. Unexpectedly, the road to repay the imperial court is full of difficulties. On the one hand, because of the treacherous imperial court, on the other hand, he is also afraid that the 10,000+ soldiers and horses in Wang Yan's hands will be destroyed if he can't control them well. The big problem is that after Wang Yan's biggest supporter, Zong Ze, died, Wang Yan was finally named Wu Yilang because of Huang Qianshan and Wang Boyan. In fact, he was left idle. Zhishi went home.

It was not until Zhang Jun was in Sichuan and Shaanxi that Wang Yan was re-recommended. Originally, Wang Yan thought that he could finally make a big splash this time, but because he disagreed with Zhang Jun, he was sent to be the pacifier of Jinzhou. The opinion is correct, but at this time Wang Yan can only kill the rebels and robbers in his own territory, and the right is for entertainment.

But as far as Wang Yan's life is concerned, it would be impossible to say that he is a patriot. He can only be said to have bad luck and stubborn thinking.If when he was in Taihang Mountain, he could control one hundred thousand soldiers and horses under his command one by one, and if he stood up on his own, what would Sichuan and Shaanxi be like today?
"Liu Wei, according to what your lord said, Nasa Lihe led one hundred thousand troops, how many troops are there in Raofengguan now?" Yan An asked.

"Wang Yan still has more than 1 soldiers and horses, plus Tian Sheng's more than 3000 people, plus us." Speaking of this, Liu Wei couldn't help hesitating a little. The unit of measurement is really too far away.

"That is to say, less than [-]% of the Jin people's strength? This battle is dangerous!"
