Chapter Five Hundred and Thirteen Fables
Cao Wei immediately felt something was wrong. He first heard the crying, saying that the empress dowager was dead, and then the Liao army refused to die. Now in the two major war zones, he was responsible for the north and east, and Li Jilong was responsible for the south and west, so this pressure was immediately passed to him.
He immediately ordered his subordinates to go and inquire. His face turned gloomy when he heard this, but he needed to ask Li Jilong for instructions. After all, Li Jilong was the real commander. Although Song Jiu personally asked Zhao Heng to give power to give Li Jilong the power to command all officials and soldiers from Song Jiu, it would be more or less a joke. Don't talk about others. If Li Jilong took it seriously and ordered Kou Zhun that Kou Zhun could use a gutter to plaster on Li Jilong's head and drowned Li Jilong alive.
But Li Jilong must be asked for instructions for the major actions of the three armies.
Therefore, the command task was handed over to Tian Shaobin.
He had not been able to catch up with Yang Yanzhao and the others in military talent, but Tian Shaobin has been famous for a long time and has a veteran of the three dynasties. He has always had prestige in the army, and he wanted this prestige.
Let Tian Shaobin focus on stability and respond to changes in the same way as he is unchanged, and then give the generals free play. After the instructions, he immediately went to Li Jilong.
At this time, the sky was getting darker.
Even though there was some white snow in the wilderness, people were trampled everywhere. Even because of the fierce war, many areas of war had not lit torches, and the battlefield spread to a radius of dozens of miles, with a maximum length of nearly ten miles.
This is also inevitable. Hundreds of thousands of troops were fighting, and the number of cavalry exceeded half. The battlefield range was small and the commander could not even see the situation with a telescope, so he had to use the commanders instructed by each capital to judge the situation on the battlefield and then issue orders.
Even though Li Jilong was the head coach, it took Cao Wei a long time to find Li Jilong and tell him the situation.
Li Jilong cursed: "This crazy woman."
Cao Wei smiled. Xiao Yanyan was not crazy and even had to be respected. This was her use of her life to inspire the morale of the Liao army, otherwise the Liao army would be all here. But this move made the Song army uncomfortable. Even if the Liao army was defeated, it would suffer a lot. It might even be that if Xiao Talin had the ability, he could turn the Liao army around.
However, Song Jiu gave Li Jilong the right and immediately saw the benefits.
Faced with this situation, Li Jilong cursed angrily and then issued an order.
"The message ordered Zhang Sijun to release a four hundred steps. Remember, it can only be four hundred steps, and then separate the rear army from both sides, bite it tightly to prevent the Liao army from expanding the width of the passage, and then shoot with crossbows on both sides."
The messenger quickly rode down.
"I will also send a command to all the states and counties in the rear to clear the walls and the countryside, and all military, civilians, food and supplies will be quickly withdrawn into various cities, forts and villages, especially food and grass. No food and grass should be left to the enemy along the way. If you have troops in your hands, you should look at the situation as appropriate and snipe in time. But remember that being able to snipe and ambush will give us time to catch up with the pursuers. But you should not be tough,"
More messengers will continue.
This range is a bit wide, so it is easy to judge the route of the Liao army's escape. It must escape from the open plain between the east side of Daming Prefecture and Shen County. But after passing here, God knows where they will escape. Therefore, Mingzhou, Xingzhou, Zhaozhou, Zhenzhou, and the eastern part of Dingzhou. Beizhou, Yongjing Army, and the western part of Yingzhou, including Shenzhou, Yizhou, Qizhou, Gaoyangguan, Xiongzhou, Baozhou, and Polu Army. They may all be the scope of the Liao army's escape.
There are more than a dozen prefectures and dozens of prefectures and counties, and there are countless villages and forts below. All orders must be issued in time. Of course, this task is not under the jurisdiction of Li Jilong, but the orders must be issued in time to the prefectures and troops in time, so that the prefectures and troops can be issued in time to the villages and villages in each county. Even so, dozens of people must be sent to the orders. Even for speed, each person takes two horses to run in turns.
"I will send an order to Wang Xianggong, asking him to send scouts to set up a tight line of defense on the Gaoyang Pass in time, so that the Liao army will not be able to break through. If you are cowardly and dare not fight, the Military Law Department will enforce it!"
In fact, Wang Xian was even older, so he was transferred to Hebei's defense line, which was also agreed by Song Jiu. Although he was an important official and veteran, Lao Wang was much better than Zhou Ying and others.
However, Li Jilong also scared Zhou Ying and Fu Qian, two "respondents and veterans", so he ignored Lao Wang's status and said, "The Military Law Department is in charge."
"I sent another order to go to Taiyuan, Daizhou and Shengwu Army, as well as Prefecture and Shengzhou, and let Shipu, Wang Hanzhong, Wang Chao, Zhe Weichang and Fiji lead troops, and the troops enter the mountain. First, recover the mountain, and second, restrain the Liao army and prevent them from going south to rescue. The point of the battle is at their own discretion. If the enemy is strong, use it to restrain it. If the enemy has fewer troops, take it down after the mountain!" But Li Jilong thought for a while, and said, "Take Shipu as the main, Wang Hanzhong, Zhe Weichang as the auxiliary, and Gao Jixun as the forward."
Among these people, Wang Hanzhong is too old to be old.
As for Zhe Weichang, he was the one who appeased the Qiang people. After all, there were many foreign soldiers and Qiang soldiers among the soldiers there.
Even if he uses Wang Hanzhong, who is too old to be older, Li Jilong doesn't want to use Wang Chao.
How many soldiers and horses in Dingzhou a few months ago, more than 100,000 soldiers and horses! I dare not fight, and I dare not chase after me. What is the difference between you kid and Fu Qian?
"The order Hu Yanzan, Yang Yanyu's troops were sent to Yizhou. If the Liao Kingdom sent troops to help and drag them to death, even if they were all their subordinates and the two passes, they would not be allowed to go south until our army annihilates all the Liao troops."
This is power, otherwise Li Jilong would not be able to mobilize troops in such a vast area.
After ordering the mobilization behind, Li Jilong ordered: "The three armies immediately rushed to the east and west sides, let them escape to the north, but they had to keep shooting from both sides. The cavalrymen were ready to pursue the troops behind and continue to follow the Liao army to the north to cover the killing. The infantry commanded the Liao army to flee north, and immediately picked out strong soldiers and chased them with the cavalry. The remaining infantrymen took the troops to capture the fleeing Liao soldiers separately. Gao Qiong urgently prepared military rations and carried the food and grass with his troops and then walked."
As this order was sent to the generals, the Song army began to divide the two sides.
That's a big deal.
The Song army divided the two sides, and the Liao army automatically gathered in the middle.
The channel appears naturally.
Just now, surrounded by many directions, and Xiao Yanyan used his death to inspire morale. The Liao army was desperate. However, now the opportunity to escape is here, who is still fighting to the death? Especially those soldiers from various tribes such as Jurchens and Tatars immediately fled northward.
However, this is also a blood-crying channel. The middle is not within the range of the bow and arrow, but the Song army on both sides continues to shoot dense rain of arrows.
The Liao soldiers were automatically crowded in the middle, which led to countless soldiers trampling on each other and trampling on each other.
However, many Liao soldiers finally escaped for the time being and continued to pounce on the north.
Later, the cavalry of the Song Dynasty continued to hunt down, especially the Xianping army, most of which were good horses from Hetao. They were relatively delicate, but their speed and explosive power were better than the Khitan horses.
Therefore, the Liao army collapsed again. Although many Liao army escaped from this passage, they fled like flies covered with heads, fled in all directions, and even fled in the opposite direction. After the war, some scattered Liao soldiers who had their heads covered and escaped the Yellow River in the territory of Fengqiu on the east side of Kaifeng. Some of them fled to Taihang Mountains, and the farthest ones actually fled to Pengzhou in Mizhou. God knows how they escaped. Even if Song Jiu had not noticed this situation and issued orders to the states in advance to prepare for strict precautions, I am afraid that these scattered deserters would cause serious panic in the rear.
However, compared with other cavalry, the Beiwei Army is no longer in glory this time. The Beiwei Army was in full swing on the battlefield just now, but its speed is not their strength.
But you also have to accompany you. Once the Liao army is entangled again and the Beiwei army arrives again, it will be useful. Besides, there is Yanyun and a large land in the north...
Most of the main forces, led by Xiao Talin, have not been dispersed yet and continue to flee to the north.
But the happy escape didn't last long, and a tight line of defense was formed in front of him.
Of course, there may not be many infantrymen in this area. There are countless Song Dynasty cavalry chasing behind the key, and they cannot stop for a moment. As long as you stop, the encirclement will immediately take shape again.
Therefore, even though he knew that the passage would be stained with the blood of the Liao army, Xiao Talin still took more than 100,000 soldiers and horses into it without hesitation.
The rain of arrows fell again.
The trampling began again.
The wide road is really narrow, only four hundred steps wide. If the Song army had all the Fulu crossbows in their hands, they could use the crossbow to cover all the ranges of four hundred steps. They had to squeeze in the middle. In addition, the Song Dynasty cavalry was chasing them behind. With this passage alone, the Liao army dropped more than 10,000 dead bodies.
But as soon as he broke out of the passage, the Xianping army was divided into two groups, led by Ma Zhijie and Qin Han, forming a fan shape and began to attack the Liao army.
The Liao army fled again and collapsed again.
At the third update, he fled outside Neihuang County, and there were less than 100,000 soldiers under Xiao Talin.
What's so bad is that he can bring back 100,000 people, the road ahead is long...
...
In the city of Chanzhou, Song Jiu was telling a bitter fable.
"Your Majesty, there was a soldier who had been in love with a wife for a long time. This soldier went to the border to garrison, so he wrote letters to this wife every day, talking about his affairs in the border, and talking about his love and concern... January, one year, year after year, a few years later, this soldier also made contributions and was promoted to the military position. The soldier was about to end, but this wife got married to the messenger."
There are also prime ministers sitting there. When they heard the beginning sentence, several prime ministers frowned together, what love is it? It is so polite to tell the emperor on this occasion.
But after the last sentence, everyone began to look at each other.
On the surface, this is a very miserable fable.
In fact, Song Jiu could not be so bored, and the soldiers outside were still fighting bloody battles.
This fable implies that Zhao Heng is a bit nepotist.
For example, Zhao Heng once used his teacher and then promptly corrected the situation. This was nothing wrong. However, compared with Zhao Kuangyi, Zhao Heng later used those people, Ding Wei, Wang Qinruo, Kou Zhun, and Wang Dan, and they were these four people. If Zhao Kuangyi had not vigorously trained new people and left a good foundation for Zhao Heng, could Zhao Heng reuse Zhang Qixian, Li Han, Xiang Minzhong, Kou Zhun, Lu Duan, and Lu Mengzheng, if there were no these six prime ministers, could there be a rule of Xianping? Even the envoy of the Third Division Chen Shu was promoted by Zhao Kuangyi.
As for Ding Wei and Wang Qinruo assigned by Zhao Heng...
Not only the prime minister, but also the military generals. In fact, there are countless famous generals on the border, Tian Min, Zhang Ning, Cao Wei, Yang Yanzhao, Wei Neng, Sun Quanzhao, Yang Si, Ma Zhijie... But Zhao Heng's eyes were not far away. After looking, he was still looking at people around him. Therefore, he raised and reused the old people of his father's residence one by one, such as Gao Qiong, Fu Qian, Wang Xian, Zhou Ying, Gao Qiong and Wang Xian, what kind of people are Zhou Ying and Fu Qian?
And because Wang Chao had served as Wang Xian's deputy general and was liked by Wang Xian, Wang Xian recommended him to serve as the chief general of Hebei. If he hadn't seen something wrong in the Battle of Wangdu and promptly suggested that Cao Wei replace him, something big might happen.
Wang Chao can be a general, but he must not be a handsome man!
Zhao Heng was not a fool, and he heard it, and sighed after half a day: "I am not as good as the late emperor."
"Not that, Your Majesty is more kind than the late emperor. But Your Majesty pays more attention to military and political reports in various places. When you see good ministers and generals, you dare to make recommendations. Promote and train them step by step. If you observe their talents, you will get more good ministers and commanders, and you will have no worries about the country's military and political affairs."
"I will talk about the second thing. After the war, the country can transfer some money and silk to print the homeland certificates uniformly. The court has made anti-counterfeiting marks. The officials of each county wrote their names, date of birth and about height and appearance. Any woman and man in the hairpin must go to the county government offices in various places to sworn allegiance to our court and receive this homeland certificate. Local checkpoints must see that they hold this certificate before they can be released. Local residences must see this certificate and register before they can move in. If they are not over and after the year of the headpin and the year of the crown, they must go to the county government office to write relevant certificates."
"By the system?"
"It is not the backward system of the Tang Dynasty, it is just a proof of identity, and it will not prohibit the people from moving."
Zhao Heng was still thinking, but several prime ministers thought about its beauty.
Bisand said: "This is a good idea."
But Song Jiu added: "If the people of our dynasty want to live in our dynasty for a long time, the official above the magistrate must recommend this person to our dynasty. Or if you donate more than 1,000 pieces of money and silk to our dynasty, you can then be naturalized and receive relevant local origin certificates. Otherwise, the local officials must issue a proof of the reason why this person comes to our dynasty, and reissue it every quarter to avoid the damaging of the dynasty in our dynasty."
"ah?"
