She Song

Chapter 189 Han Wu comes out of the mountain
After listening to the detailed explanation, Han Xiaoyao finally understood that Xiao Qian, the former king of the Fourth Army of the Liao Kingdom, recruited a group of Xi people to become emperor. In order to avoid being hunted by the Jurchens, he lived in a relatively remote place and lived a difficult life.

In the spring of this year, he kept going south to test, and after repeated successes, he became more and more emboldened. He probably thought that the Song army was still weak during the harvest season, so he sent troops to Jingzhou to attack Jizhou, defeated Zhang Linghui and Liu Shunren's tribe, and robbed countless grain, grass and property.

Han Xiaoyao immediately asked Pharmacist Guo: "What was Mr. Guo's plan before?"

Pharmacist Guo said frankly that not long after the founding of the country, Xiao Qian led the Xi people to send troops with the intention of looting and establishing power. He was extremely arrogant because he underestimated the Song army. He dared to divide his troops to attack the city with 5000 troops. Originally, he planned to use [-] troops. Encircle and annihilate the opponent to avoid future troubles.

2 people?
Han Xiaoyao frowned. He didn't have so many ready-made cavalry, and even if he did, he couldn't send them all out.

However, even if there are five thousand Xi troops, according to the current strength of the Zhenguo army, it is absolutely no problem for 1 people to eat the opponent.

Xiao Qian became the emperor and wanted to establish his authority through soft persimmons, but the Zhenguo Army also needed to establish its authority if it wanted to secure Yanyun's position.

This battle must be fought!

Xiao Qian, who together with Yelu Dashi was known as the Twin Jewels of the Late Liao Dynasty, and the eight hundred serious Xi Ren cavalry, were just in time to test how sharp the sword of the Zhenguo Army was?

Han Xiaoyao looked around at the crowd and said decisively: "Anyone who offends Yan Yun will be punished no matter how far away he is!"

The eyes of Pharmacist Guo and the officers of the Ever Victorious Army suddenly lit up. Regardless of whether the Zhenguo Army could win or not, at least these words were very comfortable to hear.

"On the [-]th day of the Yuan Dynasty, Guo Yaoshi and Zheng Liang worked together with the staff to formulate a counterattack plan. The Military Intelligence Department will investigate Xi Jun's movements and actual situation as soon as possible, and the logistics will ensure military resources in advance... Since Xiao Qian is here, don't gone back!"

Three senior generals responded.

As for Zhang Jue turning his back on the Jin and defecting to the Song Dynasty, Wang Anzhong gave a detailed explanation.

The Song-Jin Maritime Alliance agreed that the sixteen states of Yanyun would be returned to the Song Dynasty, but the Song army was defeated miserably by the Liao people, which aroused the Jurchens' contempt. After accepting a million guan redemption fee, they seized Pingzhou and set it up as Nanjing. Zhang Jue was appointed He stayed behind, but Zhang Jue thought that it was more promising to join the Song Dynasty, so he killed the Jurchens in May this year and led his troops back to the Song Dynasty.

Zhang Jue took Qingzhuang with him and claimed to have fifty thousand soldiers and horses, but the famous Jurchen general Wanyan Yan Mu only took two thousand of his own horsemen and went to Pingzhou to capture Zhang Jue.

At present, Zhang Jue has lost two battles in a row and seems to be about to be wiped out. Therefore, the Jurchen envoys arrived in Yanjing and were particularly angry that the Song Dynasty secretly accepted the Jin Kingdom's surrender.

The question now is, should we save Zhang Jue?

"If 5 men and horses can't defeat two thousand, Zhang Jue is also a loser! Tell him, if he wins this battle, nothing can be said. If he loses, go home and take care of the child!"

Pharmacist Guo said with some worry: "The Jurchens are arrogant. No matter whether they win or lose, they will definitely take the opportunity to provoke..."

Wang Anzhong accepted Zhang Jue and Hepingzhou, and he had made great achievements in opening up territory. However, as the pressure from the Jurchens increased, he wavered.

"Can the King of Zhenbei receive the Jin envoy? If the two sides can turn their hostility into friendship, the crisis in Pingzhou can be resolved!"

Han Xiaoyao shook his head, there was no reason to fight on two fronts, he concentrated his forces to deal with Xiao Qian first, as for Pingzhou, let's see how Zhang Jue did.

"Let Zhang Jue check first and ignore the envoys. If the other party asks, tell him that according to the agreement between the two countries, Pingzhou belongs to the Song Dynasty. If the Jin army crosses the border to cause trouble, we reserve the right to fight back."

Wang Anzhong was startled. The Jurchen envoy was already very angry. Wouldn't he add fuel to the fire if he said such words again?

Han Xiaoyao said it didn't matter: "If we really want to fight, we won't come here to negotiate. If they leave without saying goodbye, then the war is not far away."

Pharmacist Guo asked: "If the Jurchens raise their troops and go south..."

Han Xiaoyao asked: "Whether they go south or not depends on their appetite, so regardless of Zhang Jue's victory or defeat, we must be prepared to fight the Jurchens!"

This sentence aroused discussion and even panic among the civil and military personnel present.

The King of Zhenbei was young and energetic. He defeated the Forbidden Army and suppressed the Ever-Victorious Army. Perhaps he had the mentality of despising the Jurchens. If this continued, he would definitely anger the Jurchens.

In their view, defeating the Forbidden Army was not surprising. After all, the remaining defeated generals of the Liao Kingdom could easily annihilate 20 Forbidden Army, not to mention destroying the Jurchens of the Liao Kingdom with one enemy against a hundred.
Therefore, they believed that the combat strength of the Zhenguo Army was equivalent to that of the Liao Army, but if they were to fight against the powerful Jurchens, they would not be able to win in any case.Han Xiaoyao didn't say a word. He waited until everyone calmed down and then said: "Guarding the border and resisting the enemy is the bounden duty of the Suppressing Army, and you are to assist the Suppressing Army in making various preparations. Those who are afraid of the enemy can submit their resignations. I will accept this. Agreed! If you don’t want to resign, then just focus on your official duties. If you spread criticism in private, you will be punished as if it shakes the morale of the army!"

Everyone was silent now. The King of Zhenbei was too domineering!
Han Xiaoyao knew that most people were dissatisfied, but as long as it didn't delay the business, that would be fine.

Under high pressure, Yanjing's first government affairs meeting ended, and everyone received various work lists, which was very "Korean-style."

After the meeting, Han Xiaoyao, Yuan Shishi, Guo Yaoshi, and Zheng Liang rushed to the Yanyun Army General Staff Headquarters to formulate a battle plan against Xiao Qianxi's army.

According to Guo Yaoshi's judgment, at least 2 troops must be dispatched to be able to confidently encircle and annihilate Xiao Qian, then capture his lair and completely eliminate the Xi Kingdom.

Jizhou is now in danger and may even fall. It is difficult to judge Xiao Qian's next move.

Han Xiaoyao looked at the map and suddenly said: "Can we send a large force to contain the Xi army in Jizhou, and send another special force to attack Jingzhou to block the retreat route of the Xi army?"

Both Yuan Shishi and Zheng Liang believed that this was a great plan to annihilate Xiao Qian.

But Pharmacist Guo saw further. He believed that although a sneak attack on Jingzhou was a clever move, the Xi army was good at riding and shooting. Once their retreat was cut off, they would definitely turn back to Jingzhou. At that time, the unexpected troops hanging alone behind the enemy lines would be in danger. .

Yuan Shisi and Zheng Liang asked for war one after another, and were even willing to issue military orders.

Han Xiaoyao shook his head. Bravery is not enough for such a lonely and in-depth battle. You must also have the ability to win through stalking and chaos.

Seeing that Han Xiaoyao did not agree with Yuan and Zheng's departure, Medical Master Guo almost thought that Han Xiaoyao wanted him to plug the hole of the gun.

Han Xiaoyao quickly thought of a candidate, so he asked people to find Han Wuliang Hongyu from the training camp.

The combat staff gave a brief introduction to the situation, especially mentioning the importance and danger of the Qi soldiers capturing Jingzhou.

Han Wu immediately realized that Han Xiaoyao came to him as a surprise soldier.

Fuck, my old Han is in luck today!

Capture Jingzhou and block Xiao Qian. This is the first achievement, and the gold medal will be awarded!
It would be a fool not to seize this opportunity!

Han Xiaoyao asked: "Xi Jun has at least five thousand cavalry, but I can only give you five hundred cavalry. You can attack three hundred miles in one night, capture Jingzhou, and hold it for six hours! I think you can do it, what do you think?" "

"King Zhenbei, I will issue a military order now and promise to capture Jingzhou and block Xiao Qian for six hours!"

Han Xiaoyao looked at Liang Hongyu and asked, "What do you think?"

Liang Hongyu thought for a moment and said: "The more crossbows and explosives, the better!"

Well, he is indeed a heroic girl with a delicate mind!

"Han Shizhong is hereby granted the position of acting battalion commander of the Independent Cavalry Battalion, with jurisdiction over five hundred cavalry, equipped with two basic crossbows, and fifty kilograms of explosives! Combat mission: After arriving in Jizhou, make a surprise attack on Jingzhou at night and hold on for six hours!"

Han Wu was overjoyed. If the battle was successful, the word "Dai" in the cavalry battalion commander's name would have to be removed.

He immediately raised his hands and saluted: "Yes! I will work hard to complete the mission!"

Han Xiaoyao returned the military salute, and then ordered to Liang Hongyu: "Liang Hongyu is hereby granted the position of acting political commissar of the Independent Cavalry Battalion to cooperate with Han Shizhong in completing the mission. If he behaves in violation of military regulations, you have the authority to supervise, correct and suspend him. !”

Liang Hongyu: It feels really good to finally be able to criticize my husband legitimately.

Han Wu: Let me go. In the blink of an eye, my aunt becomes "grandma"!
