Across the Water Margin: Officials of Ximen

Seeing that there was no ambush from the Jin Army in the Dongguoshui River Valley, all the generals of the Central Army of Zhongzhong breathed a sigh of relief. At this point, all the generals believed that the Jin Army had really retreated northward, and there was no obstacle ahead.

However, when the Zhongjun of the Zhongshi Division came out of the cave and crossed the Shuihe Valley, they received a report from the scouts, saying that there were Jin soldiers attacking from the direction of Yuci County.

The seed division hurriedly ordered the whole army to line up at the mouth of the valley to meet the enemy, and set up infantry phalanxes one by one.

After a while, with the sound of horseshoes, a group of more than [-] cavalrymen of the Golden Army rushed to the middle army of the seed division.

Zhong Zhong could see clearly from the army formation that the two thousand or so people were not the Jurchen army, but the Khitan army that the Liao Kingdom surrendered to the Jin Kingdom.A majestic general at the head shouted at the middle army of Zhongshi: "Hey! Listen to the Song army on the opposite side, this Taiyuan mansion is the territory of our country of Jin. How dare you violate our border? I advise you You wait to retreat quickly, and then let your emperor's son offer gold and silver as an apology, so as not to be killed! If not, I will make you all be the ghosts of my Fifth Grandpa Yeluma!"

"That guy is short of troops, and he hastily came to meet the battle. He is bluffing at this moment! Huang You, you lead the attack."

Huang You, the opposing general in the Zhongshi Division, issued a military order.

At this time, the vanguard of the fierce general Lu Zhishen and Yang Zhi was rushing to Yuci to join the army from another road, so Huang You had to be dispatched from the division.Not far behind Zhongshizhong, the young general Zhang Jun is gearing up, eager to try.

"The Khitan dog who betrayed the owner and begged for glory! You don't want to restore the Liao Kingdom, but you sacrifice your life for the enemy. How can there be such a shameless person like you in the world? Let me, Huang You, take your life today!"

With a roar, Huang You rushed forward with 5000 troops.

So, will Huang Youhui and Yelv Mawu be singled out?of course not!

At this time, the strength of the Song army was far superior to that of the Jin army's Yeluma five divisions, so Huang You would go forward to challenge him one-on-one if he was stupid.

Yeluma's five armies were indeed brave and good at fighting, but they couldn't hold back the many soldiers in Song Dynasty.Although only 5000 people from Huang You's department were fighting him head-on, archers from the Song Army phalanx on both sides attacked the Yeluma Five Army from time to time.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Yelu Mawu immediately fled with his troops, leaving more than a hundred corpses on the battlefield.

Yeluma's fifth army was Khitan cavalry, and the middle army of the division was mainly infantry, so they couldn't chase him down, so they could only see him off with bursts of laughter.

The division continued to advance with the whole army, and encountered harassment and attacks from two scattered troops of the Jin Army on the way.However, both of these two Golden Army units only had a few hundred cavalry, and they fled to the north after fighting with the Zhongjun Army without any pain.

When approaching Yuci County, Zhongshi Zhongjun encountered another Han army from the Jin Army, and the general was Hao Shouzhong, a traitor from the Yisheng Army.

A fierce battle broke out between the two armies, and Hao Shouzhong was defeated and retreated.

Zhongshi learned from the captives that this Hao Shouzhong army was originally stationed in Taigu County, southwest of Yuci. This time, he was ordered to transfer to the north, passing through Yuci County, and happened to meet the Song Army.

After several battles, Zhong Zhong was convinced that all he encountered were sporadic troops returning north from the Golden Army.This shows that the Jin army indeed retreated after being unable to attack Taiyuan City for a long time!

If you occupy Yuci County earlier, you can encircle with the Yao Gu army and Zhang Hao army in the south, and wipe out the scattered Jin army garrisons in Taigu, Qingyuan, Jiaocheng and other places!

Zhongzhong ordered the whole army to move forward desperately, and must occupy Yuci County before nightfall that day, cutting off the route for the Jin army in the south to flee north.

When the soldiers heard that the Jin army was retreating to the north, their morale was greatly boosted, and they rushed to Yuci County non-stop.

However, when the Central Army of the Zhongshi Division approached the city of Yuci County, it was raided by the main force of the Jin Army.

Wanyan Loushi and his eight thousand Jurchen cavalry have been waiting for a long time, waiting for the Zhongjun of the Zhongshi to throw themselves into the trap.

Although the Jin army only had 3 cavalry, under the leadership of Wanyan Loushi's son Wanyan Huonv and the fierce general Wanyan Tu, they divided into left and right wings and surrounded the middle army of more than [-] horses.

Seeing the iron cavalry of the Jin army in the seed division, they knew that they had been fooled.

There are two reasons why the Jin army did not set up an ambush to attack the Song army in the Dongguoshui River Valley.

First, the canyon ambush is the most commonly used tactic, so it is also the easiest tactic to guard against.The Song army was very careful when passing through the river valley, and sent many spies to the mountains on both sides to ensure that there were no enemy ambushes.

Moreover, the main force of the Central Army of the Planting Division is the Western Army, which was originally a mountain infantry trained to deal with the Xixia Army.Crossing mountains and ridges is not difficult for the Chinese army.

Therefore, it is actually very difficult for the Jin army to ambush the middle army of the seed division in the Dongguoshui River Valley.

Second, the main force of Wanyan Loushi is the eight thousand Jurchen iron cavalry. Such troops cannot be used in the valley, and they cannot exert the power of impact.

Therefore, Wanyan Loushi deliberately showed weakness all the way, and led the Zhongjun of the Zhongshi to the basin and plain area under Yuci County.Here is a good battlefield for the Jurchen cavalry to charge to their heart's content.

The Zhongshi believe that the cave at this time through the water valley must have been occupied by the Jin army.His own way of retreat was cut off, and the supplies and food could not be transported from the direction of Shouyang County.

In this desperate situation, the only option is to fight to the death!

Chapter 9 Each Has His Own Plan

Putting it to death and then reviving, after being surrounded by the Golden Army cavalry, the middle army of the species division immediately arranged in a neat square formation to deal with the impact of the Golden Army cavalry.

The infantrymen of the Song army, wearing infantry armor and fan yangli, moved quickly. They tied three thick double-headed spears in the middle of the gun barrels and placed them in the front of the formation in the shape of a tripod, forming a temporary refusal horse.

The pike infantry formed a dense formation behind the horses, and used the pike formation to resist the impact of the cavalry.The archers hid behind the pikemen, ready to attack from a distance.

After paying the cost of thousands of infantry casualties to block the first wave of the Golden Army cavalry, the middle army of the species division completed the formation, and the archers fired a salvo at the Golden Army cavalry with strong bows and crossbows.

Although the [-] cavalrymen in Wanyan Loushi were all wearing iron armor for body protection, the middle army of the Zhongshi Division was also equipped with the most powerful bow.

Within a hundred steps, the God Arm Bow can cause fatal damage to the Jin Army Iron Armored Cavalry.

When Wanyan Loushi saw this, he withdrew his troops temporarily, and did not let the cavalry attack the formation of the middle army of the seed division.Instead, he watched the Chinese army from a distance.

"Father, why don't you go forward in one go and annihilate this Song army? I think those Song troops are nothing more than chickens and dogs. Let the boy charge again, and the head of the Song general will be cut off!"

Seeing her father Wanyan Lou's withdrawal of troops, Wanyan Huonu rushed back to her father on horseback, and asked puzzledly.

"My son is brave, how can a father not know? Although the Song army has [-] soldiers, it is not my son's opponent.

However, the Song Army can be regarded as the elite of the Western Army if it is able to stay calm in the face of danger and form a formation quickly.

The bows and crossbows of the Song army are very powerful. Although the strong attack can win at this time, it will inevitably damage many good men.

Our troops come and go like the wind, and the return route of the Song army has been blocked.It is possible to trap the Song army here.

This Song army has no supplies of food and grass inside, and no rescue soldiers outside. Within two days, its army will be in chaos.

At that time, my son will be able to easily take the head of the enemy general, why are you in a hurry? "

Wanyan Lou Shi called Wanyan's live girl.

"Father is right! My child understands. The enemy generals are brave and foolhardy, and they have fallen into our army's trap. As long as they run out of dry food, they will surely chaos without fighting. No army formation can stop them." My cavalry is gone! Father, let me go!"

Wanyan Huonu has been fighting with her father for many years, and like Wanyan Loushi, he is also a well-known fierce general in the Jin army.

Wanyan Loushi gave some advice, and Wanyan Huonu immediately understood her father's intentions, turned around and rode back to the team, and continued to monitor the Song Army.

Facing the siege of the Jin army, the Zhongshizhong remained calm and composed.

Although Yuci County was not captured, there are still [-] elite infantry of the Western Army in the Central Army of the Zhongshi Division. When the formation is complete, they can fight against the cavalry of the Jin Army.

As long as you stick to it overnight, tomorrow is the date you agreed with Yao Gu and Zhang Haojun to join the army.After the three armies gathered, there were 20 people. How could the more than 1 gold troops surrounding him be opponents?

Tomorrow, our family army will let these golden dogs be buried here!

Zhong Zhong made up his mind and ordered the generals to boost morale, stick to outside Yuci City, attract the Jin Army here, and wait for the Song Army Yao Gu and Zhang Hao's troops to encircle the Jin Army tomorrow, and then annihilate the Jin Army in one fell swoop.
