Chapter 1529 The South Route Army was the first to make meritorious service (second update)
Chapter 1538

What's important is that Wang Yang is unwilling to bring a single soldier from the Song and Western Army to cooperate, except for agreeing to bring a hundred scouts who are familiar with the terrain in this area and proficient in the Khitan language as guides.

The opponent is the coach of the strategic layout this time, Zhe Kexing can't convince the opponent, and there is no way to do more than roll his eyes.

But fortunately, Ningbian Prefecture sent [-] elite northwest frontier troops to assist the [-] firearms troops.As long as there are three thousand elite frontier troops, with Deng Heng's stability and prudence as a veteran.

I believe that even if they cannot win Yongbyon Prefecture, they can at least ensure that the firearms troops, who are obviously a little out of tune, will return to the Volcano Army.

As for Zhe Kexing himself, of course he was extremely confident, because he personally led [-] cavalry, [-] infantry, and most importantly, two battalions of imperial artillery accompanied him to capture the Jinsu Army.

I believe that as long as I can seize this place in the first place, it is equivalent to cutting off the connection between the Heqing Army and Ningbian Prefecture, and my army, whether it goes north to cooperate with Wang Yang, or goes south to attack Ningbian Prefecture, will be more powerful. Show calm.

However, this calmness did not last long. After Zhe Kexing landed on the west bank of the Yellow River two hundred miles east of Jinsu Junzhi, he did not march rashly. Instead, he sent more than a hundred scouts to clear the way. , And he led the army to prepare to fight steadily.

After all, with two battalions of Yuanyou Shenwei cannons here, if you want to take down the Jin Su army, as long as you don't make any mistakes or make mistakes, then it is definitely a matter of holding the snails with three fingers.

But the result was that on the second day after landing, it was confirmed that there was no Liao army blocking the way ahead, and Zhe Kexing led the army forward for [-] miles. It was getting late, and when they were preparing to set up camp, there were dozens of horsemen galloping from the east. come.

Zhe Kexing raised his eyes and looked, the leader was the leader of General Deng Hengdeng's confidant, but he actually appeared here now, could it be...

Just at the moment when Zhe Kexing's face changed drastically and his heart stopped beating suddenly, the leader of the confidant of General Deng rode up to him and rolled off his saddle. shouted sharply.

"Great news, my Great Song South Road army landed at the wharf of Ningbian Prefecture at the turn of Chen and Si yesterday. At four o'clock, it has already defeated the Liao army and captured Ningbian Prefecture."

As soon as this remark came out, not only Zhe Kexing didn't react, but even the generals around him were stunned for a long time and didn't respond.

Seeing this scene, the leader of Deng Heng's soldiers was very helpless, but it was also normal, just like when he saw that scene at the beginning, why wasn't it like this?
#####
After listening to the leader of the personal army sent by Deng Heng describe in detail how the two firearm troops displayed their supernatural power, they killed nearly a thousand enemy cavalry at a distance of two hundred paces. The shot directly blasted the entire impregnable Ningbian Prefecture into a sea of ​​flames.

Hearing this, the generals of the Northwest Frontier Army of Song Dynasty were fascinated leisurely, wishing to see such a scene with their own eyes.At this moment, Zhe Kexing kept pulling his long gray beard and blinking his eyes.

"So fast, it took less than an hour from when they landed to when they seized the easily defensible pass of Ningbian Prefecture..."

"Exactly. In fact, it was unbelievable that there was General Deng at the end of the day, but after this battle, we all have to admit that the sharpness of the firearms is really a sharp weapon for the Song Dynasty to protect our family and the country, and to expand the territory."

"That means, Yelv Gundo, the guard of Ningbian Prefecture, and the others have fled north, right?"

"That's right, even the people of the Liao Kingdom in the city of Ningbian Prefecture have already fled to the direction of Jin Su's army, so my general was worried that General Zhe would not know the news, so he specially ordered the young general to come and report to the general."

"Those Musketeers are so amazing, they can penetrate the armor to attack the enemy at three or four hundred paces, and those seemingly toy-like mortars, firing a hundred cannons at once, can also have the power to burn the city. It seems that the old man I really underestimated these elites led by Master Wang."

"Based on this, the five thousand musketeers commanded by the commander-in-chief can not only attack the enemy three or four hundred paces away, but also have the powerful maneuverability of cavalry. Just ask, who else can fight in this land of Hetao?" able to stop their raging..."

After receiving the news, Ning Da, the Deputy Commander of the Imperial Artillery who rushed over, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard the generals' discussion.

He turned his head and walked towards Zheke. "Old general, it is too early to set up camp at this time today. Otherwise, the final general is really worried that Zhao Xingyong and Wang Hao will go directly past Ning in order to rush to attack. Bianzhou came to Jinsu for military administration."

"..." The big bosses of the northwest frontier army couldn't help but be startled when they heard this, and immediately their eyes fell on Zhe Kexing.

"Old general, the last general also feels that what General Ning said is very true. Ningbian Prefecture has been broken, and the commander-in-chief is leading [-] musket cavalry to wreak havoc in the northwest at this moment. If this is the case, the Jin Su army will definitely not have reinforcements, and our army The most important thing to do at this time is to speed up the march, and strive to reach the city ruled by Jin Su's army tomorrow."

"I believe that with the two battalions of Yuanyou Shenwei under General Ning's command, it will be easy to capture the Jin Su army."

Seeing all the cadres looking at him eagerly, as if afraid that he would disagree, Zhe Kexing narrowed his eyes, stroked his beard for a long time, and asked someone to bring the map.

Then he was silent for a long time while facing the map, and all the generals were a little confused. At this time, Zhe Kexing said slowly.

"We have all received the news from Ningbian Prefecture for my Da Song, so do you think the Jin Su Army will not receive it?"

"If Jin Su's army hears the news, do you think the Liao army will still defend the city like Ningbian Prefecture, or will they take the initiative to attack and seek opportunities?"

Zhe Kexing's two questions from the old driver left the people present speechless and staring at each other.Everyone is aware of a problem, all this is not speculation, but will definitely happen.

Ning Da couldn't help but take a breath and said. "Fortunately, the old general is cautious, otherwise, if I wait too aggressively, I'm afraid something will go wrong. If Jin Su's army knows our army's movements, concentrates its forces, and takes advantage of my army's march to sneak attack..."

"I would like to ask the old general to show you how to proceed next." A frontier general asked Zhe Kexing respectfully.

"Continue to march, but we will not go southwest, but northwest, to here..." Zhe Katsuyuki's big hand fell somewhere on the map.

"Thirty miles to the northwest, our army will be able to reach the Bison Mountain area. The northern part of this area is full of mountains. We can continue to go westward for a hundred miles along the mountains, and reach the end of the Bison Mountain Range. Going south, it is not far from the Jinsu Army. Thirty miles, and to the north, you can directly enter the sphere of influence of the Heqing army."

"If Jin Su's army wants to take advantage of our army's march to attack and kill, they can only come from the south. In this way, our army only needs to defend..."

Following Zhe Kexing's talk, all the generals couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief, showing excitement and anticipation.
