Southern Song Dynasty military god

Chapter 401: Heavenly Fire Falls, People Panic
Wanyan Zhenzhuer, the historical figure who became synonymous with tragedy in "Shuo Yue Quan Zhuan", is actually not as unbearable as in the novel.

As the eldest son of the Kingdom of Jin, and also the kind of eldest son who is second only to the status of the crown prince, and also has the status of a true disciple of the national teacher Pufeng, the foundation of Jin Danzi should be said to be quite noble. In the current world, there are many people who can surpass him many.However, by coincidence, the fate of Jin Danzi, who was a contemporary of Liu Wei, did not seem to be much better than in the novel.

His father died under the assassination of Liu Wei and Wang Chongyang, so that he failed to successfully take over his father's throne, and was conspired by many elders to seize the family property. In desperation, he struggled to break the situation, and finally took down the puppet Qi Kingdom by himself. , the emperor's throne has not yet been warmed up, but the Jin Kingdom cut power again.

Unwilling to sit still, Jin Danzi tried to go south to seize Bashu as the foundation of his great cause, but was defeated by Liu Wei twice, especially the second battle with Liu Wei, which completely destroyed Jin Danzi's confidence, so that he suffered from Suffered from "phobia" syndrome.

Turning to the south, he was frustrated again in Guiyang Mansion. He had an army of [-], but he became a lonely soul without roots.

In desperation, Jin Danzi decided to link his future with the relatively weak Dali Kingdom based on the mentality of "squeezing a soft persimmon".

At this time, Dali Kingdom, although the territory is not small, has no statement in the north.In fact, not only the golden marbles, even the Golden Kingdom, little is known about the Dali Kingdom.Strictly speaking, the geographical environment of Dali is not suitable for the Jurchen people from the north at all, but Jin Danzi has no choice at the moment.

Either, he can only follow the barren hills that are inaccessible all the way down, and go straight to those real wild areas outside the border of the Southern Song Dynasty, or, after retreating from Guiyang, he can only continue to the southwest and take the Dali Kingdom.

At the beginning, Jintanzi thought it would be easy to take Guiyang City, but unexpectedly, because of the many victories of the Song army on the eastern battlefield, the arrogance in the Song people was aroused. When the Jintanzi army besieged the city, the defenders in Guiyang City stood firm Not retreating, coupled with the timely assistance from the imperial court, so that the golden marble fell short.

But even so, relying on the strong combat effectiveness of the army under his command, Jin Danzi was still able to "come and go freely", and was not blocked by the army of the Southern Song Dynasty. He easily tore through the encirclement of the Southern Song army and moved towards Dali.

That is because the Jin Kingdom has announced the abolition of the Puppet Qi Kingdom, Jin Danzi and his army have no possibility of returning, so the [-] troops will follow Jin Danzi wholeheartedly, and fight and leave.Although Jin Danzi still has considerable charisma in the army, it is the limit of what Jin Danzi can do to keep the army alive. It would be nonsense to talk about the high morale of the army up.

Attacking the Dali Kingdom is also a helpless choice.

It was precisely because he was forced to take this path that Jin Danzi’s collection of information on Dali was so limited. It can be said that before he decided to attack Dali, he didn’t even have a complete map of Dali. .

And the most important town in Dali State closest to Guiyang City is Shanchan Mansion.

Shanchan Mansion, this name is relatively unfamiliar to later generations, especially Han people, but if you name it, everyone will be familiar with it.

In fact, Shanchan Mansion is the foundation of Kunming City in later generations.In this era, Shanchanfu included eight regions, one of which was Kunming.

In the hearts of the Duan family in Dali, Shanchan Mansion is an important area for them to learn Han culture, communicate and do business with the Han people, and it is also the "Tokyo" of Dali Kingdom.

If history does not change and continues to evolve according to the original process, when the Mongols prosper and spread their troops all over the world, Kublai Khan will send an army to destroy the Duan family in Dali, and the famous "Master Yideng" in the novel, After the defeat in the battle of Dali City, they will go straight to Shanchan Mansion, which is Kunming City, and then fight to the death with the Mongols in Kunming City.

Although in the end, Dali was still destroyed, and "Master Yideng" became a subjugated slave, but the battle around the Shanchan Mansion still left a strong mark in Chinese military history.

Of course, these are off topic.

Today, Shanchan Mansion, where no royal family of Dali lives, is just a commercial center in the eastern part of Dali Kingdom, and it is being eyed by the "wolf from the north", the golden marble.

After learning about the situation of Shanchan Mansion, Jin Danzi immediately regarded this important town of Dali Kingdom as a piece of fat in front of him!He firmly believes that if he can win the Shanchan Mansion, then he will be able to rise again, and then have a chance to win the Central Plains!
Compared to Jin Danzi who is unfamiliar with Dali Kingdom, Duan Zhengyu has been paying attention to Jin Danzi, the lone wolf army that rushed to the north and killed them.

Duan Zhengyu, who is in his early forties this year, is in the prime of life and full of fighting spirit.Although it is difficult for the Dali Kingdom to expand its territory due to various reasons, Duan Zhengyu has also promulgated many decrees that are conducive to the development of the domestic economy and handicraft industry after he really took power. In particular, he advocated learning Han culture, not just learning literature and writing , but anything that is more advanced than Dali, even farming technology, is all practiced "bringing doctrine".

It is precisely because of Duan Zhengyu, an enlightened emperor, that Dali Kingdom has made a leap in national strength in the past ten years.

As the area closest to the Han people in the Southern Song Dynasty in Dali, Shanchanfu is also an important town in Dali with the most prosperous economy, the most prosperous government, the most intelligent people, and the richest products.

How can Duan Zhengyu, the king of Dali Kingdom, ignore such an important town?
In Shanchan Mansion, there are not only tens of thousands of local troops stationed there, but also several guarding troops specially instigated by Duan Zhengyu. These troops may not normally appear in Shanchan Mansion, but once Shanchan Mansion is attacked, No matter where these attacks come from, these troops will quickly wipe out the enemy under Duan Zhengyu's mobilization!
Of course, this was just Duan Zhengyu's own plan.

For the Southern Song court, Shanchan Mansion was not actually a high-value regional target. After all, in the hearts of the Southern Song court, from the emperor to the officials, Shanchan Mansion was just a slightly more developed area in the Southern Barbarian Kingdom. It's not even worth their while.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, there is no need for Duan Zhengyu to deploy the military forces in Shanchan Mansion. However, since the golden marbles made a detour from Gongzhou to the south, Duan Zhengyu became nervous.

Regardless of whether the golden marbles can get benefits from the Southern Song army, Duan Zhengyu feels that the golden marbles will not let Dali go.The reason is that today's golden marble is a rootless tree, duckweed drifting with the tide.However, Jin Danzi is very ambitious and capable.

When Jin Danzi started to attack Guiyang City, Duan Zhengyu began to mobilize the garrisons around the Shanchan Mansion, and began to move in the direction of Shanchan Mansion. Just in case!

The final facts proved that Duan Zhengyu's guess was correct.

Jin Danzi failed to capture Guiyang City in the hands of the Southern Song army, so he came towards Shanchan Mansion by way!

After receiving the notification, Duan Zhengyu immediately issued an order for the Dali army outside the Shanchan mansion to launch a fierce attack on the invading golden marbles!
From the perspective of the Dali Kingdom, an army of 3 to [-] people launched an attack, which is already very "violent".It's a pity that the location of the Dali Kingdom is still too far away. Even Duan Zhengyu, who is the emperor, doesn't know what scale the war in the northern part of the Central Plains has reached.

The struggle of tens of thousands of people happened before the Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty, and it was basically not considered a "war". For example, when the Jin Kingdom conquered the Song Dynasty, there were more than [-] troops at every turn, and it may not be possible to get it from the Southern Song Dynasty army. benefit.

It is precisely because of the lack of understanding of military reforms that in Duan Zhengyu's view, the two already powerful armies failed to prevent the golden bullet from going south. More importantly, the mistakes caused by the unequal information made Dali Kingdom lost two elite armies.

If Duan Zhengyu had mobilized these two armies to the Shanchan Mansion as a defensive force from the very beginning, perhaps the subsequent battle would be slightly more favorable to the Dali Kingdom.

Even if Jin Danzi has 5 troops, as long as there are [-] troops stationed in Shanchan City, Jin Danzi can only look around and sigh, but it is Duan Zhengyu's momentary mistake that allows Jin Danzi to easily separate the two teams. After eating it, he went directly to the city of Shanchan.

At this time, the number of Dali garrisons in Shanchan City was less than 2, and a large part of them were local defenders who had hardly experienced war.

The so-called local defenders, in fact, usually have the function of catching fugitives and maintaining public security in the city. They have not received real battle training at all, and they will not fight foreign troops.

When Jin Danzi's [-] soldiers and horses appeared under the city wall of Shanchan City in black, the entire Shanchan City fell into panic.

No one knows how long Shanchan City can last, and there is a news that makes everyone panic: if the Jin soldiers lose too much during the siege, according to their habits, once the city is broken, they will massacre the city!

Massacre, such a thing is so distant and terrifying to the people of Shanchan City who are used to peace and tranquility, that bloody smell, even before the golden bullet has ordered the attack, it has already begun to spread in Shanchan City .

It should be said that such a situation is very unfavorable to Dali. Before the war even started, the people are panicked and the army is in a state of confusion. What is the point of such a battle?
In fact, the reason why Jin Danzi did not launch an attack on Shanchan City immediately was precisely because he felt the tension of the soldiers and civilians in Shanchan City.For Jin Danzi, even if he still has tens of thousands of soldiers available, he still hopes to win without a fight, and take down Shanchan City without bloodshed!
