The rising smoke belonging to the Yan army indicated that the Yangshan stronghold was broken.
The Yan army sentry horses quickly informed the news to all ministries that since Yangshan had been broken, those who should disengage should disengage, and those who should withdraw their troops should withdraw.
The main forces retreated separately, but the small groups of troops that were originally used for early warning during the war did not withdraw. Instead, they were released in accordance with the pre-war arrangements to enrich the already dominant forces south of Zhennan Pass. sentry cavalry strength.
The role of pulling out the Yangshan stronghold is to cut off the operational connection between the various military forts and strongholds of the Chu people. The second is to completely bring the front of Zhennanguan into the control of the rhythm of the war of the Yan people, so that the Chu people have worked hard. The military forts and strongholds that Ku built here have become isolated islands.
When you raise a large army and come out, the Yan people's army will immediately move upon hearing the news and confront you. If you come out with a small force, you may be able to get out, but you will not be able to go back.
The root cause of this phenomenon is not just the loss of a Yangshan village, but the original pattern of Yan attacking Chu and defending; since the Chu people are the defenders, it is inevitable to lose the situation either actively or passively control.
Of course, there will be a song on the battle report;
Uncle Hirano led the Xuehai iron cavalry to smash the Yangshan stronghold in one fell swoop, which completely established the style of the battle against Chu, laid a solid foundation for breaking the Chu people's defensive iron formation, and accelerated the process of using troops against Chu;
In fact, it can be considered targeted.
In the next two days, except for the sentinel cavalry being more active than before, all the soldiers and horses should actually return to the village and prepare for it.
King Jingnan did not hold another military meeting because of this battle, because the arrangement for this battle had already been decided at the time of the last military meeting, and there was no need to call everyone here at this moment. Just to celebrate Hirano Bo.
After all, this battle has just begun.
Yes,
Indeed, the curtain has just opened.
Uncle Zheng, who returned to the camp, first took a comfortable hot bath.
The bathtub is placed behind the handsome tent. There is a door between the two tents. The front is the office area and the back is the living area.
This is the advantage of the battlefield being close to his hometown. In the past, Uncle Zheng had never been treated like this when he went out to fight.
After taking a shower, I had a good night's sleep.
After earnestly nourishing his energy, when he went out of the tent again, what he saw was a scene full of enthusiasm.
After rushing to the Yangshan Village, the soldiers and horses from all walks of life were divided into several fronts and began to attack the city. Naturally, it is impossible for all the soldiers and horses to attack the city. There must be a few routes left for maneuvering, but those are Tian Wujing s arrangement.
What lay in front of Uncle Zheng to be conquered was the Dongshan Fort of the Chu people.
A very large fortress.
A few days ago, in order to weave this bag, all the Chu troops stationed in it, but in order to rush for help, this soldier and horse pulled out again, and collided with the Gongwang Department several times, causing damage to each other.
But after Gongwang received the news that Yangshanzhai had been breached, he did not stop it any more. Instead, he gathered his troops and horses to block the possibility of the Chu army withdrawing to Dongshan Fort.
After all, he is a veteran on the battlefield, he can be appreciated by Situ Lei, and he can still be alone under the rule of the Yan people after the change of heaven. His own ability is beyond doubt.
And in terms of style, he is also very popular with Uncle Zheng.
You can go anywhere with that imperial guard, but you never want to go back to Dongshan Fort, because they will be the ones who will attack Dongshan Fort in the next battle.
In fact, this trick is very insidious, because unless you eat this Chu army, otherwise, even if it can't go to Dongshan Fort, this imperial imperial army of Chu will go to other military forts. In the end, it will be assigned to attack that The Yan army in the military fort will encounter great resistance.
However, this kind of spirit of giving up everyone for a small family,
won the heart of my uncle.
And right now, in such a lively scene, assembled trebuchets, battering rams, arrow towers, siege crossbows and other armaments began to be transported to the front;
See Uncle Zheng,
The eyes are a little moist.
Xue Haijun, who has always been famous in the Yan army for manufacturing siege equipment, now finally has the opportunity to use siege equipment to attack the city in a down-to-earth manner.
After waiting for a long time, looking forward to it for a long time, finally this day came.
As for the previous siege in the snow field, can that be called a siege?
There is just one thing that makes Uncle Zheng still surprised. Logically speaking, San'er should be back.
Although there are a group of people from Tianji Pavilion in our army who can replace Xue San's role, but the voice of defeating Chu has been preached for so long, and San'er was in Liang Guolisten,
Don't worry, there will be that day.
It means that sooner or later their subordinates will share the wages of his family with Uncle Hirano's subordinates.
Logically speaking, as the chief general of an army, he would often feel disgusted or even repelled such a loss of independence.
but,
It can only be said that when King Jingnan assigned soldiers and horses to garrison at the beginning, he might have already planted a hidden line.
Gong Wang is a native of Jin, he himself has no chance of being promoted, at most he is in the rank of title, he can have some thoughts, but if he wants the court to let a person of Jin origin be guarding one side now, even Gong Wang himself can't help it. I feel very unrealistic.
But under his command, not only his own son, but also many of Paoze's nephews were with him. It can be said that half of the future of the Situ family was on him. We have to consider and think of a way out for them.
The easiest way out is to raise the flag to rebel and restore the land of Jin
But even Uncle Zheng dare not think about rebellion now, let alone him.
As for Gongsun Zhi, as Li Bao's son-in-law, he separated from Li Bao's son after Li Bao's death. Of course, the imperial court deliberately broke up Li Bao's troops here, but if he himself is very loyal If you don't want to, it is impossible to really divide it.
Therefore, his position is very embarrassing. The generals from Zhenbei Army, such as Li Fusheng, don't like him at all, and the other generals don't regard him as their own.
It's comfortable to be separated out happily, to be in charge of one side alone, but he can't enter other circles.
Therefore, these two people now have the need to hug their thighs.
Uncle Zheng's newly promoted thigh not only shines dazzlingly, but also has no external attachments other than his own troops and horses. Naturally, it is the best choice at the moment and has the brightest future development potential.
a party,
Everyone is very happy.
Officially speaking, it is the three leaders of Dayan's eastern army who attacked Chu, and reached a consensus to work closely together for Dayan and to continue to fight for the great achievements of His Majesty Yanhuang;
On a personal level, it is a faction at the top of the army with Uncle Zheng at its core, which was formally established today.
? Even Uncle Zheng himself,
In the interplay of replacing wine with tea,
I can't help being a little dazed,
Things are going well,
Seems to be too natural, as it should be, and too smooth
On the upper reaches of the Wangjiang River, it rained continuously for many days.
In addition, it is now the flood season of Wangjiang, and for a while, the dikes and dams everywhere are quite jittery.
To transport food and various supplies for the front line, a large layer of manpower near Yingdu has been exhausted. Now, it is necessary to continue to squeeze out manpower and material resources to manage the river work.
? Not long after his comeback, Sun Youdao, the Taifu of Chengguo, was so busy that he was haggard.
Fortunately, because Uncle Zheng led the troops into the city last time, Yingdu's officialdom was cleaned up, so although the task was difficult, there were not many obstacles in doing things.
"Here, here, here, and here, hurry up, hurry up!"
The corners of the fifth prince Ji Chengwen's mouth were blistered, which was enough to show how anxious he was these days.
Originally thought that coming to Yingdu this time was just a formality, but I didn't expect that there was a war ahead, and the river project had to continue here.
Human and material resources are obviously insufficient. Now, all the slaves and servants of all the big families in Yingdu City have also mobilized and are busy on the river embankment.
The fifth prince just took a breath and took a sip of water when he saw a dwarf standing on the embankment over there.
There was a horse next to the dwarf, and a woman was sitting right away. The woman had a big face and bigger hips. Sitting on the horse's back, the horse's butt looked a bit delicate.
Xue San stabbed at the river embankment level with a dagger,
Cursed:
"Damn it, the materials for building the embankment are bought from Pingxixi, right?"
"Dare to ask Mr. Xue, what sect is Bing Xixi?"
"Um, this, you don't need to know."
Xue San turned around, faced the river on the other side, put his fingers to his mouth and muttered to himself while biting his nails;
"Hiss, this doesn't look like a river repair project. ?
