Da Song: The opening game killed Ximen Qing

Dingtao City is only tens of miles away from Jiyin City.

All the main forces of the Liangshan rebels have been assembled here.

The 1st Infantry Corps, the 5th Corps, the 10th Corps and the 1st Cavalry Corps, totaling 120,000 men, were all assembled here.

It can be said that in addition to the three regiments of the water army deployed by Liangshan Shuibo, this is already the entire strength of the Liangshan rebel army. It is also the only force that the Liangshan rebels can rely on in this battle.

It has been five full days, and it has been five days since the main forbidden army of the Great Song Dynasty attacked Jiyin City.

The Fourth Infantry Corps of the Liangshan Rebel Army, under the onslaught of more than 100,000 people of the Song army, had been holding out for five days.

In the past five days, Wu Song was anxious every day.

Fortunately, the intelligence agency of the Liangshan rebel army stationed many people in Jiyin City, and reported the situation in Jiyin City to Wusong every day through carrier pigeons, so that Wusong knew the situation in Jiyin City well.

“Grand Commander, Jiyin City is still under our control. The Fourth Army fought very well in this battle. However, the losses of the Fourth Army were also very large. Plus two artillery regiments reinforced to them. The current casualties have reached more than 8,000. However, the losses they inflicted on the Song army were also very large. The Song army who died under Jiyin City exceeded 50,000 people! Zhu Wu reported.

Wu Song nodded: “The Fourth Army has indeed done a beautiful job this time. Under such a fierce attack by the Song army, they were actually able to hold on. ”

Wu Song was also very satisfied with the performance of the Fourth Army.

“Both General Mu Hong and General Yan Shun reported that the city had sufficient supplies and was able to hold out under the attack of the Song army. Even if you hold on for another five days, there will be no problem at all. Zhu Wu said.

“In that case, let the Fourth Army continue to hold on. However, it is necessary to warn Mu Hong and Yan Shun. Don’t be stubborn, and if you can’t resist it, be sure to report it to us immediately. Wusong said.

He didn’t want Mu Hong and Yan Shun to bury the entire Fourth Army because of their stubbornness.

Although the Fourth Army has suffered a lot of losses at present, the rest are elite backbones, and it only needs to be replenished to restore its combat effectiveness soon. But if the Fourth Army suffered even heavier losses, it would not be able to recover its combat effectiveness in a short period of time.

“Yes, Grand Commander. Mu Hong and Yan Shun are not reckless people, they should know the proportions. Zhu Wu said.

Wu Song naturally hoped that the Song army would leave more corpses under Jiyin City. In this way, when the Liangshan rebels launch a large-scale counterattack in the future, the chances of success will be greater.

“What happened to the Third and Seventh Armies?” Wu Song asked.

The Third Army fought against more than 70,000 Song troops at Yingtianfu Songcheng.

The Seventh Army resisted more than 70,000 Song troops at Chenzhou Wanqiu, Jingbei Road.

Both armies are less against more.

Wu Song was also very concerned about these two armies.

If these two armies can not only drag down the Song army, but even defeat them further, this will give the Liangshan rebel army more advantages in this battle.

“Grand Commander, the Third Army fought very well in Songcheng. Several units of the Song army, such as the Tianwu Army, the Zhongwu Army, the Yong’an Army, and the Zaoyang Army, all broke their heads and bleed in Song Cheng and suffered heavy losses. The Ruda brothers did not act recklessly, but weakened the Song army with the help of defensive operations. When the time is ripe, try to fight out of the city and launch a counterattack. Zhu Wu said with a smile.

“Well, I didn’t expect that the Ruda brothers also began to use their brains. That’s a good thing! Wusong said with a smile.

If the Third Army could not only hold the Tianwu Army down, but also defeat it. Then, the Third Army will be able to follow the trend and attack the Gyeonggi Road and plunge directly behind the main forces of the Song army.

“On the side of the Seventh Army, the performance is slightly inferior. However, there was no problem at all in defending Wanqiu City. Holding the Japanese army, the Gwanghwa army, the Wuwei army and the Anfeng army, although they are storming the city. However, Wanqiu City was still in the hands of the Seventh Army. If nothing else, it would be impossible for the Song army to conquer Wanqiu City. And the Song army did not dare to retreat, fearing that the Seventh Army would attack Gyeonggi Road. Therefore, the Song army along the way was completely dragged down by us. ”

“Very good, the third army and the seventh army have successfully completed their tasks. In this way, we are much less stressed. As long as the main force of the Song army under the city of Jiyin is defeated. We won this battle! Wu Song nodded, and the confidence in his heart seemed to be firmer at this moment.

“The Grand Commander, the Sixth Army in the north, the Eighth Army, and several regiments of the Second Cavalry Corps are also doing very well. Although the combat effectiveness of the border army of the Song army was not weak. But they didn’t get anything cheap in front of us. At present, the Hucheng brothers and the Dong Ping brothers, as well as the Qin Ming brothers, are actively preparing to launch a counterattack. “Zhu Wu reported the situation of several units fighting on the northern front to Wu Song.

“Very good! If the troops on the northern front can successfully defeat those Song troops. Then the pressure on our north will be much weaker. Even, it is possible to further attack Jizhou East Road and Jizhou North Road and take these two roads. However, the only thing to worry about is the actions of the Liao people in the north. We went to war with the Great Song Dynasty, and the Liao people in the north would not be able to watch if they didn’t get it right. Wu Song was a little worried about this.

The Liao State has always been eyeing the Great Song Dynasty.

It’s just that although the military strength of the Song Dynasty is weak, it is not something that the Liao State can swallow in one gulp. What’s more, the Liao State itself has quite a few problems. The various nationalities conquered by the Liao state were also unstable.

Therefore, the Liao State did not continue to attack the Song Dynasty, but let the Song Dynasty bow down and pay a large amount of tribute to the Liao State every year.

If the Great Song Dynasty was in chaos within itself, the Liao Kingdom would definitely not let go of this opportunity.

Although Wu Song knew that in a few months, the strongman of the Jurchen tribe would cavalry against Liao.

With the first more than 2,000 soldiers and horses, the Liao army was defeated.

Even in just ten years, the invincible Liao State fell apart.

In other words, as long as it survives the initial period of time, the Liao Kingdom will be overwhelmed. At least in the short term, it will not threaten the Liangshan rebels.

This is also the reason why Wusong is not very afraid of the Liao State.

“Grand Commander. We don’t have to think too much about the affairs of the Liao Kingdom for the time being. Solving the main force of the Great Song Forbidden Army is the most important thing at present. Zhu Wu said.

Wu Song nodded, indeed, the Great Song Dynasty was the biggest enemy of the Liangshan Rebels at present.
