Invincible son

Chapter 1249 1250 [Great Wind Blows]

On the Gaoyang Plain, the north wind chills.

After more than a month of confrontation, the Wu army, who fought long distances away from home and country, still maintained a strong resilience.

During this period of time, [-] battles of various scales broke out on the three fronts, mainly concentrated in the Dingxi camp on the southern line and the outlying army camps on the central line.As for the West Wu North Route Army led by Xie Lin, due to the heavy loss of the main cavalry, it was unable to form a high-mobility advantage over the Liang Army. Therefore, the two sides had several conflicts near the Beitiao River, but it did not turn into a large-scale battle.

After the reinforcements from the Beijing Army arrived, Gu Liang divided the South Camp of the Jing Army into two, respectively supporting the Dingxi Army on the south line and the Longbow Army on the north line, while the West Camp of the Beijing Army enriched the Guping line of defense.

Xie Linxu on the northern line was demoralized. When the Longbow Army was supplemented by new forces, he could only lead the army and retreat to the east of Gancheng, and could no longer threaten Hucheng, Guyuan Village, and Longbow Army City. A thick line of defense.

The battle on the southern front was extremely tragic. Zhang Qingbai played to his strengths in attacking fortified positions and precise command, and constantly used his superiority in strength to wear down the morale of the defenders.Although Qi Xin, the commander of the Dingxi camp, is very good at defending, the soldiers under his command are real people after all. It is very difficult to defend against Zhang Qingbai's knife-sharpening tactics. I am afraid that the Dingxi army can only abandon the city and retreat.

The north and south lines are considered to be in a stalemate, but the center line battlefield is quite unfavorable for Liang Jun.

The three military strongholds of Lulong, Daokou, and Jiming fell one after another, which meant that there was no stronghold to support the west of the Daliang border, and Hucheng was completely reduced to a desperate situation.

Although compared to Gu Liang's hearty victories in Huweiyuan and Guping, the process of Wu Jun's capture of these three military strongholds was very difficult, but Emperor Xuanwu could finally breathe a sigh of relief.After clearing the stubborn obstacles, the Wu army was divided into two, with [-] cavalry and [-] infantry to frighten the defenders of Hucheng.

At this point, the battle situation gradually became clear.

In the previous battles, Liang Jun won more than he lost, but what Gu Liang and the generals of the Western Army did not expect was that there was no logistical problem in Western Wu.The Wu army did suffer more losses, but they always maintained their superiority on the front line, putting more and more pressure on the Liangxi army.

A decisive battle is inevitable, and continuing to defend will only make the situation more passive, because everyone knows that the imperial court has to bear the pressure of two national wars, and the situation in the southern border is not optimistic, and there is no extra troops to send to the western border.

Gu Liang did not rigidly wait for the Wu army to further compress the front line, but chose to take the initiative to attack, pushing the main force on the center line westward, blocking the only way for the Wu army to advance eastward.

Near the former site of Nanshanzhai, Liang and Wu armies lined up facing each other.

Nanxiong Hou Zhaoxian led the Jinshui Army as the left wing, Nan'an Hou Suwu led the Beijing Army West Camp as the right wing, and Gu Liang led the Guping Army and Lingzhou Sanwei as the central army.

The flags are fluttering, stretching for more than ten miles.

The Wu army in the West is even more powerful.

The [-] elite cavalry swept across the formation, and the thick infantry formation was well-organized. Behind the infantry of the Chinese army, the figure of the world-renowned Anyang Dragon Knight could be seen faintly.The two armies are still in a confrontation, so the Anyang Dragonriders are not wearing armor, but everyone knows that this heavy cavalry is a sharp edge, especially in the face of the heavy infantry, which is difficult for ordinary cavalry to shake. It is rumored that the Anyang Dragonriders can fight Breaking.

On the ninth day of May, the sun was shining brightly.

In the formation of the Liang army, Gu Liang stood on the watchtower, staring at the extremely conspicuous Tianzilong Banner in the distance of the Wu army formation, and said calmly: "Is there any news from the southern border?"

Gu Mang, who was standing below, said, "Return to Commander-in-Chief, I didn't receive any urgent report today. The most recent news is the one from three days ago. Duke Wei commanded the Qinzhou Navy to win a big victory, and the South Wufeng Navy Nearly half of the warships were damaged. In the subsequent battle of Jiangyin, Fang Xiexiao's sons Fang Yuntian and Fang Yunji were captured, the entire Pingjiang Ruijia Battalion was wiped out, and half of the [-] Zhou troops on the northern bank and eastern front were killed and half surrendered."

Gu Liang observed Wu Jun's formation and said with a smile: "This kid's talent in leading troops to fight is enviable. Back then, he built a Dingzhou navy for his father with the strength of the five states in the south, but he could barely defend it for more than a hundred miles. Waters. He destroyed the Wufeng navy in one battle, and this kind of credit may make some people in the court sleepless."

Gu Mang smiled honestly, glanced at Gu Fan not far away with a calm expression, feeling a little emotional in his heart.

The battle is imminent, even though he has stepped on the edge of life and death countless times on the battlefield, he still can't relieve the tension in his heart at this moment. After all, the troops of the West Wu Central Route Army have an absolute advantage.

After more than a month of fighting, both Liang and Wu had a relatively accurate judgment on each other's strength.The reason why Emperor Xuanwu of the Western Wu Dynasty insisted on pulling out the three military strongholds, and carried out continuous tentative attacks on various fronts, was to lure out the mysterious firearms used by Liang Jun in the Battle of Huweiyuan.

This was not because Gu Liang deliberately hid his clumsiness, but that in order to wipe out the [-] cavalry of the Western Wu and North Route Army in that battle, he had to use all the earth mines sent by Pei Yue.Although there are still a few homemade grenades left, they are basically useless at this moment of decisive battle between the main forces of the two sides.

At the same time, Gu Liang also figured out the mobilization of troops in Western Wu. Of course, Xie Lin on the northern line was not really scared. He just retreated deliberately to show weakness.

In short, Emperor Xuanwu now has at least [-] troops under his command, including Anyang Dragon Knights and [-] elite Qingqi.

After a while, Gu Liang said calmly: "Order Zhao Xian and Su Wu to move forward and let the vanguard army test Wu Jun's confidence."

"Follow the order!" The herald responded loudly, and the standard bearer and drummer immediately issued the order.

The sound of drums and horns resounded between heaven and earth.

……

At the same time, the vast plain south of Hucheng.

The formation of the Western Wu army was well-organized, and the coach Lu Dingguo rode his horse to the back of the sword and shield soldiers. Looking at the Liang army in the distance under the fortified city, he frowned slightly and asked, "What do the Hucheng defenders want to do?"

The generals around looked at each other in blank dismay, wondering if this was an obvious fact?
There is no need to go into details about the mutual investigations on the battlefield, just as Gu Liang had already determined that Emperor Xuanwu of the Western Wu Dynasty would gather heavy troops to win a decisive victory on the central battlefield, and the Wu army had of course already known that the defenders in Hucheng were less than [-].

Emperor Xuanwu deliberately left [-] infantry and [-] cavalry. Of course, he didn't expect them to capture Hucheng. Instead, he strictly ordered this army not to approach the city wall.

"General, regardless of why the Hucheng defenders took the initiative to attack, if they can defeat this army under the city, wouldn't Hucheng be at their fingertips?" A general said excitedly.

Lu Dingguo glanced at the formation formed by the Liang army on the opposite side, and said in a deep voice: "The cavalry commander Wanfu Chang Xiuhao is not allowed to take the initiative to attack without the permission of the commander in chief."

The rest were all stunned, but no one dared to disobey the military order.

They only acted cautiously as the coach. After all, Liang Jun could be safe by relying on the strong city wall, but now he is taking the initiative to attack. There must be hidden evil intentions.

All of Wu Jun's movements naturally fell into Liang Jun's eyes. Inside the Zhongjun, Qi Yunhou Yin Wei said calmly: "Yin Dao."

Yin Daolang said: "The end is here!"

Yin Wei glanced at his eldest son, and said word by word: "Even if you die on the battlefield, you have to lead the Jingyu Battalion to entangle the Wu army's flank cavalry."

Yin Dao took a deep breath, sat on the horse and saluted respectfully: "The last general takes orders!"

The drums of war are like thunder, and all armies are marching together!
