The Summoning of the Troubled Times at the End of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 502 Wang Zhi VS Female General

The war between Xishui and Duanshui will finally start, and the battle here and now is extremely fierce, reaching an appalling level.

The Qi army, the elite of this army, attacked the Tianping army a few years ago, but they did it by hand.

Today, the soldiers of the Qi army can't help but feel the overwhelming pressure.

In front of the Taiping army with superior military strength, the Qi army is like fallen leaves floating in the deep sea, ready to be overturned at any time.

I saw that the Tianping army was attacking by boat all the way at this time, not only that, but the catapults on the bank were gradually roaring towards the Qi army on the opposite bank.

For a while, with the cover of the Taiping Army's catapults, the casualties of the Qi Army's troops were huge.

Seeing the stalemate in the battle, Wang Xuance couldn't help but lower his voice, and said compassionately: "I thought that even if the combat power of the Tianping Army has been refined, it is only mediocre!"

"But judging from the current situation, the general underestimated the rebels, otherwise how could he have suffered such a big loss."

Indeed, Wang Xuance's self-confidence was overwhelmed by this loss.

Although, at that time, Gao Qi urgently passed the combat power of the Taiping Army to Wang Xuance by using flying pigeons.

It's just because Qi has been invincible and victorious in successive battles against foreign enemies in recent years, Wang Xuance could not help but have an illusion.

Think that the combat power of your own army is unmatched by the enemy, let alone the barbarians entrenched in Lingnan?
Since Lingnan was located at the southernmost point in ancient times, it has never been accepted by the Central Plains.

Coupled with the local terrain and harsh climate, the locals are also called 'barbarians'.

In fact, the so-called Baiyue is mainly located in Yongjia, Lingnan and today's Qianzhou in Yangzhou.

For Wang Xuance, due to a miscalculation, the troops suffered heavy casualties at this time.

Therefore, at this time, Wang Xuance had already conceived the idea of ​​retreating.

Before the war, because Wang Xuance underestimated the combat power of the Tianping Army, the intelligence work was not perfect, and he did not find out that the Tianping Army had already prepared heavy weapons such as catapults.

Therefore, set up a defense line along the coast and do your best to defend.

Now it is unable to resist the invasion of the catapult, but let the catapult show its power.

Seeing this, the Taiping soldiers roared like a forest, and quickly drove the warship to attack the shore.

Its military morale has been deeply encouraged, and it will never be reached!
After contemplating for a moment, Wang Xuance knew that the battle was irreversible, so he decisively gave the order to retreat.

"The whole army quickly crossed cover and retreated, and retreated in the direction of Fengchuan behind them."

For a while, although the Qi army retreated hastily under unfavorable circumstances, it was just that the Qi army was worthy of being an elite in a hundred battles, and its retreat was not chaotic at all, and it retreated in an orderly manner.

After spending a long time, the Qi army gradually withdrew from the creek and Duanshui under cover.

Immediately, the Tianping sergeant on the warship was unstoppable, and took the lead to land on the beach without any resistance. For a moment, many sergeants suddenly laughed loudly.

They originally thought that today's battle for the beach would be an arduous battle!
But the current situation is that the Qi army couldn't bear the might of its own army, and fled in anticipation.

Immediately afterwards, the general of the Taiping Army immediately ordered the sergeant to report the news of the victory in the first battle to the East King Yang Xiuqing.

"Eastern King, General Ming has come to report that he has led the army to the other side first, and our army has successfully seized the beach."

Hearing this, Eastern King Yang Xiuqing couldn't help but feel shocked, and immediately ran to the high platform to observe the battle situation.

After seeing it with his own eyes, Dong Wang Yang Xiuqing believed this fact.

However, new doubts appeared at this time. It was only half a day since the fierce battle, why did the Qi army retreat?
Judging from Dongwang's past victories in battles with the Qi army, it is impossible for the Qi army's combat power to be so low.

It's not enough to resist your own army for half a day, right?
Even if the combat power of our own army is no longer what it used to be, the Qi army is not weak either!

This was one of the purest thoughts in Dong Wang Yang Xiuqing's heart at this time.

However, now that the facts are in front of him, Dong Wang Yang Xiuqing couldn't help but not believe it.

Immediately afterwards, the messenger clasped his hands and reported: "Eastern King, when our army attacked the beach, it did not encounter strong resistance from the Qi army at all."

"For this landing, our army had nothing to hinder, so we went directly to the opposite bank and drove out the Qi army."

"According to General Ming's speculation, this time it is because the Qi army underestimated our army's combat power."

"I didn't expect that our army would be so well prepared this time, and directly build a catapult and put it into battle, which caused the Qi army to suffer a dark loss this time."

However, after the orderer repeated the suggestion to General Ming, Eastern King Yang Xiuqing came back to his senses.

"Yes, yes!"

"It seems that thanks to him defecting to this king, otherwise this king would not have thought of such a method of training the army to improve the overall discipline and combat effectiveness of his army."

Not only that, even the battle plan this time was formulated by Xiangdong Wang Yang Xiuqing.

Even the masterpieces of secretly transporting warships and catapults were made by the mysterious generals of the Tianping Army.

Immediately, Yang Xiuqing took out his sword, and with a tense expression, he roared: "The whole army obeys the order and crosses the river!"

"Expel the Qi army, seize Cangwu, and regain the lost land!"

Following that, the Taiping Army's morale surged because of their victory in the first battle, and they rushed to cross the river to the opposite bank.

······
Hechuan County, Youan City

At this time, Wang Ting had already led the army to arrive here. Afterwards, Wang Ting personally surveyed the terrain here, and found that there were two weeks of roads blocking the east and west, and dense jungles.

Can't help formulating an effective plan based on this terrain, and appointed 2000 deputy generals to guard the city and strictly prohibit attacks.

As for Wang Teng, he personally led [-] troops to deploy defenses on the east and west banks to guard against surprise attacks by the Tianping army.

The reason why he wanted to go out of the city to defend was because Wang Tian discovered that it was useless to stick to You'an City with all his strength.

If the dense jungles of the east and west roads were not blocked, the Taiping army could pass through the mountains and mountains at any time.

Although there are many beasts and poisonous snakes in the dense jungle, its road is dangerous and difficult.

It's just that the army going south from the Central Plains will sigh at the ocean and be unable to pass through!
But for the Taiping sergeant who has been living in the local area, it is a breeze to walk through.

Because, first of all, the Taiping sergeants are local people, and they have long been accustomed to the bad momentum of this place.

Secondly, they memorize the dangerous roads in the mountains by heart, and the Lingnan people have a set of methods to deal with poisonous snakes and beasts.

Therefore, if Wang Zhi didn't tighten up his defensive line, once the Taiping army made a surprise attack, it would make the Qi army's unfavorable situation even worse.

It is only said that under the personal supervision of Wang Ting, in one or two days, the layout of the east and west roads was used to make a careful and strict arrangement.

In the next second, his bad battle report really happened as expected.

Sure enough, the Taiping army divided up and attacked. The Taiping sergeant with more than [-] generals from the first army went straight to Hechuan County from the official road of Yongxi County.

However, within ten days, it was militaryized and built, and the three cities of Huaiji were declared to have completely fallen under the attack of the Taiping Army.

Due to the proper arrangement, Wang Teng also received the battle report immediately.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Teng also ordered the entire army to prepare for battle, ready to deal with the incoming enemy troops.

······
Within ten days, more than [-] Taiping soldiers led the army straight to You'an after conquering the three cities without stopping at all.

If you look closely, this leading general is a female general, with fiery red hips sitting on a horse, a face like peach blossoms, eyes like cold pools, wearing a fiery red battle armor, and holding a pear blossom gun.

After several days of marching, the Taiping Army finally arrived outside You'an City under the leadership of the female general.

After arriving, this female general also knew how to lead troops. Instead of attacking You'an city immediately, she sent out scouts to scout around.

For this female general, she must be extremely cautious when dealing with the Qi army. Once ambushed by the Qi army, it is almost a near death situation.

It should be known that the great victory of the Qi State was due to Gao Qi's active learning and flexible use, and he was able to defeat the enemy with different ambushes every time.

Therefore, over time, the generals of the Qi army could not help but learn this level of tactics, which made them be very cautious when fighting with the Qi army.

However, for this time, the female general is filled with the belief that she must win.

Because, the goal of the Taiping Army's large-scale exit this time is to seize the opportunity to seize the southern area of ​​Xiangzhou in one fell swoop, and then echo with Chen Youliang, who is stationed in the west of Yangzhou, to attack Yue Fei's troops.

Immediately afterwards, he took the entire Xiangzhou in one fell swoop, threatening Jiangling, the king's city of Qi.

It has to be said that the plan formulated by Dongwang Yang Xiuqing this time is full of ambitions, and he actually wants to turn things around in one fell swoop.

I don't know what conspiracy the Taiping Army has planned to plan the Qi Army this time?

The scouts searched around carefully, and they had already discovered Wang Teng who was guarding the east and west lanes, and then went straight back to the army.

"General Yang, I have found out that there are Qi troops guarding the city, but the east and west roads outside the city are guarded by Qi troops."

Hearing this, the female general with the gun frowned, and said to herself, "What exactly is the Qi army planning?"

At this moment, the female general couldn't help being puzzled, because she really couldn't figure it out, the Qi army had a good city and didn't stick to it.

Why do you have to stick to the outside of the city? Is it true that the Qi army is not inferior to fighting with its own army?

In fact, the main reason why the female general hesitated was because she was worried that the Qi army had a conspiracy.

After all, if something goes wrong, there must be a demon!

However, following the scout's explanation, the idea of ​​the female general was dispelled.

"General Yang, the reason why the Qi army sticks to the east and west routes is because these two routes can directly bypass You'an City, turn around Guiling, and attack Xiangzhou."

"Although the road is relatively dangerous and there are many beasts and poisonous snakes, these factors are only difficult for the soldiers from the Central Plains."

"However, for those of us who were born and bred, it is easy to cross mountains and ridges!"

"It must be General Qi who knows the secrets of these two ways, so he will stick to it."

Hearing the scout's explanation, the female general couldn't help riding forward slowly, standing outside the range of the city, raising her head and observing quietly.

It's just that, seeing that You'an's city wall is high and thick, with the addition of the Qi army's garrison, a solid fortification has been built on the top of the city.

For a while, the female general couldn't help muttering: "It seems that the Qi army has already prepared, and secondly, the city is high and thick, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to capture it."

After thinking about it for a while, the female general couldn't help but order the whole army to turn around and go east and west.

Immediately, after observing the east and west defenses for the first time, the female general asked the scouts beside her under the balance of the two.

"Soldier, are you sure that these two roads can bypass You'an and go straight into the territory of Xiangzhou?"

Hearing this, the scout in charge of leading the way immediately handed over and said truthfully: "General, the villain is sure!"

"Okay, since that's the case, the whole army will retreat more than ten li and set up camp, and attack the city early tomorrow morning."

Immediately, with an order, the Taiping sergeant retreated slowly like a tide, and began to rest.

······
the next day, early morning

After the Taiping army had an early meal, under the gathering of the female generals, they lined up and drove out of the camp one by one, facing the east and west roads.

For a while, the sun rose in early autumn, accompanied by gusts of wind and sand, the flags of the two sides fluttered in the wind, bathed in the sun.

Immediately afterwards, the female general of Tianping rode out of the formation with her gun on her horse, and approached the front of the formation, shouting: "Qi army listen, the Taiping Heavenly Army is here to save you from bad luck."

"If you are sensible, go down the mountain and surrender early. If you are following the tyrant Gao Qi, you will be obsessed with it!"

"When our Taiping Heavenly Army attacked the mountain, there was no way for you to survive. Those who resisted our Heavenly Army had no choice but to die!"

"Die, die!"

For a moment, the Taiping sergeants who came after them joined the female general with all their strength and roared loudly.

Its momentum is as loud as thunder in the sky!

Hearing this, Wang Ting suddenly smiled and shouted: "Hehe, this female general is quite interesting."

"I will follow my brother to serve King Qi for many years, but this is the first time I hear an enemy calling King Qi a tyrant."

Immediately, Wang Jin's hands began to itch, and he couldn't help running up the horse, and swooped down with a spear in his hand, approaching the female general!

"I don't know if this female general ever opened her eyes and told lies?"

After only a few meters away from the female general, Wang Ting immediately stopped his horse and asked jokingly.

"Why did the general say that?"

"Although I, Yang Miaozhen, am a girl, I am not indiscriminate. Why are you aggressive?"

Seeing this, Wang Bao held a long spear, pointed it at a distance, and shouted: "Then dare to ask General Yang, why do you say that the general's King Qi is a tyrant?"

"What was the people's livelihood in Jingzhou back then, and what is Jingzhou like now?"

"The land of Jingzhou today can be described as a holy land in the south of the Yangtze River, like a paradise. The fields are thriving, and the weather is good every year, and a lot of grain is received."

"Almost every household has surplus food, and King Qi insists on the business philosophy and reuses the city's agriculture, industry and commerce."

"This female general can go to Jiangling to observe in person to see if the tyrant you speak of is justified."

"Could it be that your Tianping Heavenly Army's so-called saving the Li people is preparing to resume the war and drag the people of the south of the Yangtze River into the flames of war again?"

"Is this what you hoped for?"

For a moment, Wang Tian couldn't help but speak directly and mercilessly to Yang Miaozhen.

"Looking at this General Qi, he is also handsome and upright. He is not considered a bully. Maybe what he said is true?"

At this time, after Yang Miaozhen heard it, she believed Wang Ting's words for a few points in her heart, and even felt a little ashamed in her heart.

It's just that Yang Miaozhen is also a martial arts practitioner after all, and he also has a bit of a martial arts habit, and he refuses to obey easily.

"General Qi, since I can't beat you, let's see the truth!"

After all, Yang Miaozhen took the lead in raising his spear, and rode his horse straight to take Wang Zhi.

"Haha, well, since the female general is willing to compete, I will accompany you to the end!"

Immediately, Wang Ting didn't flinch at all, and directly charged forward with his gun.

For a while, these two famous Song Dynasty generals who used guns to defend against foreign enemies are about to face off. Who will win and who will lose?
The first female general with a gun in the Southern Song Dynasty faced the famous general in the late Northern Song Dynasty. What kind of style will the collision between the two produce?
Poems as proof:

The quite windy female general pear flower spear, with a soldier spear will be no enemy.

It's just who knows what a good demeanor, what if the two sides collide?
　ps: Recently, I took out Journey to the West and read it again. It seems that I was also influenced by Lao Wu. I like to write poems at certain times, but it should not affect me.
