Chapter Twelve Night Battle

An error occurred while processing s private file

At the beginning of the seventh day of the lunar month, at 3:00 am... The Chief Command received a report from Lin Chong that it had captured the Jin army's baggage camp, and the armies were advancing deep into the battlefield.

Yue Fei and Wang Yuan were overjoyed when they heard the news. The battle was finally sure to win. The Jin army lost its food and supplies and was unable to hold on at all, and they were about to lose.

Sun Ge, Huang Zong, Gao Xuanwu and other officials were also ecstatic and smiled. The atmosphere in the tent was very warm. Everyone was talking nonsense and guessed how long it would take to wipe out the enemy.

"Is there any news about Liu Yu and Liu Lin?" Yue Fei walked to Sun Ge and asked with a smile.

"They are still forming a formation on the spot and guarding them." Sun Ge said, "The Liu father and son are obviously worried that we will go back on our word and take advantage of the situation to kill them, so they dare not relax at all."

"Have they sent someone to contact me?" Yue Fei asked again.

"The battlefield is in chaos now, and the Liu family and his son will not send anyone here for the time being." Sun Ge hesitated for a moment and asked, "Are we going to send someone to see it?"

Yue Fei had this intention and had to stabilize the Shandong Han army as soon as possible to avoid unnecessary accidents. He turned to look at Wang Yuan, who was sitting next to the desk, and was concentrating on the battle reports that were constantly being sent. Perhaps feeling Yue Fei's inquiry gaze, Wang Yuan looked up at him, thought for a moment, and asked cautiously: "How will the governor plan to deal with the Liu father and son and this Shandong Han army?"

"I plan to solve Wanyan Talai first, and then drive Zong Fu back to Hebei." Yue Fei stopped for a moment and asked, "Is the left-behind willing to lead the army eastward and recover Shandong?"

Wang Yuan understood the truth and smiled. Yue Fei was obviously unwilling to do it himself, so he deliberately asked Wang Yuan to lead his army to recover Shandong. As for how Wang Yuan dealt with the Liu father and son and the Shandong Han army, it had nothing to do with Yue Fei.

"Of course I am willing to go to Shandong." Wang Yuan took the opportunity to raise a condition, "Is the governor willing to give Xin Xingzong, Miao Fu, Wang De and Li Qiong a chance to atone for his sins?"

"They have made contributions, and have made contributions in both the Yongqiu battlefield and the Wanting battlefield." Yue Fei did not reply clearly, but the meaning in his words was very clear. He was willing to give up the credit for regaining Shandong to Wang Yuan, but he did not want Xin Xingzong and other groups of northwestern people to take the opportunity to recover. This involves a series of complex interest relations, which he must handle safely.

Wang Yuan smiled, "A few years ago, Xin Xingzong suppressed the rebellion in Shandong and was more familiar with it. This will be beneficial for us to recover Shandong as quickly as possible."

Qi! Yue Fei pondered for a moment, weighed it carefully, and nodded in agreement. Since Wang Yuan was willing to kill the Liu father and son for Yue Fei and make Yue Fei famous, Yue Fei would of course have to pay the corresponding price. Besides, Yue Fei asked Wang Yuan to go to Shandong, which clearly meant to monopolize the contribution of conquering Jianghuai. Wang Yuan knew it very well, but he did not say it out loud, nor did he want to compete with Yue Fei, so he put forward such a condition. Yue Fei could not find a reason to refuse, so he could only agree.

Book! "After dawn, I will go there myself." Wang Yuan achieved his goal, was in a good mood, and smiled happily, "However, it is unlikely that we can solve the problem of the Shandong Han army immediately. After all, the Liu family and his son still have to rely on this army to save their lives and will not hand over the army in the short term."

Net! "I won't force them to hand over the army immediately, there is no need." Yue Fei said, "You take the Liu father and son and this army to Shandong. When and how to solve it, it is all your business."

Wang Yuan smiled and nodded, "I'll go to Shandong, you go south to Jianghuai. Who will guard Kaifeng?"

"Let's leave this matter to Tuo Shuai (win Qin)." Yue Fei had obviously thought about it, and opened his mouth and said it, "We originally expected that the battle would be fought until the end of September. Now it seems that it will end soon. However, the army of Hedong and Daibei should continue to be dispatched to threaten Hebei and delay the Jin army in Hebei, so as to help us successfully recover Shandong and attack Jianghuai. The army of Hedong and Daibei was dispatched, and Zong Fu was too busy to take care of himself, so he did not dare to go south to plunder the Central Plains, and Tuo Shuai could therefore defend Kaifeng."

The two were talking in a low voice, and the latest news came on the battlefield.

Xin Xingzong, Luo Lan and Han Shizhong urgently reported that they had defeated the Jin army Huo Shi's troops on the southern front. After the defeated troops were followed, they advanced rapidly to the north. Luo Lan, Han Shizhong and Abaddon led the horse army to continue attacking and killing eastward, intending to encircle the Xi army on the eastern front.

"The Jin army was defeated so soon on the southern front?" Wang Yuan was surprised and happy. He leaned over and looked at the map. Both of them watched the cinnabar pen in Sun Ge's hand slowly unfold on the map. A large battlefield had already occupied half of the tiger lieutenant army in just over two hours.

"The internal rebellion is the most deadly." Sun Ge was very excited, waving his arms, his movements looked very exaggerated. "The rebellion of the Liu father and son caused the entire Western Front defense of the Jin army to be destroyed in an instant. It was like a flood that broke through the dam, and it was flooded thousands of miles away, and nothing could stop it."

"We have controlled the Western Front, and the Jin army on the Southern Front has collapsed and is fleeing north." Yue Fei's fingers drew back and forth on the map a few times, and then focused on the focus between the Eastern Front and the Northern Front. "If Abaddon, Roland and Han Shizhong's horse army can cut off their retreat before the Xi army retreats, and divide and surround the Xi army and the main force of the Jin army, then this battle can end in the shortest time."

Wang Yuan and Sun Ge nodded repeatedly. At this time, Huang Zong came over and handed Yue Fei a letter, "Wang Yu from the Northern Line sent a message that the main force of the Jin army was guarding the camp under their attack. So far, there was no sign of breaking through."

"Wanyan Talai is still defending his life?" Yue Fei asked in surprise, quickly glanced at the letter, and handed it to Wang Yuan, "Are we going to adjust our troops immediately?"

"We launched an attack in the middle of the year, and it has been almost three hours now. Wanyan Talan must have known that his Western and Southern lines were lost, and the large baggage camp was also lost. He was about to break through, and it was impossible to wait until dawn." Wang Yuan asked anxiously, "What are the troops closest to the main position of the Jin army?"

"The two armies of Wang Gui and Lin Chong are located in the center of the battlefield, about five miles away from the main force of the Jin army on the North Line." Sun Ge replied immediately, "Zhang Xian's tenth army, Niu Gao's eleventh army, Fu Xiuguo's twelfth army and Zhao Renyan's thirteenth army can all reach the North Line battlefield as fast as possible."

"There are also Xinxingzong's army." Huang Zong added, "Xinxingzong is advancing north after following the defeated troops. He is probably already meeting Lin Chong and Wang Gui."

"According to the predetermined plan, the army broke through the defense of the Jin army's western front and captured the Jin army's baggage camp, and immediately divided and surrounded the two directions in the northeast and southeast directions." Sun Ge continued, "At present, Abaddon, Roland and Han Shizhong were advancing to the northeast direction, Lin Chong and Wu Jie were advancing to the southeast direction, and Miao Fu was leading the army from the southeast direction to the center of the battlefield. Once Lin Chong, Wu Jie and Miao Fu met, we would be equivalent to turning the northern line.

The main force of the Jin army was divided and surrounded by the Xi army on the eastern front. Of course, the premise is that our horse army must cut off their retreat before the Xi army retreats." Sun Ge stopped and thought for a moment, and continued, "From the development of the current situation, we can transfer Wang Gui and Xin Xingzong's army into the battlefield on the northern front to fight, and at the same time, we order Abaddon's second army to attack the main force of the Jin army on the northern front from the flank. In this way, Wanyan Talan will be trapped to death and prevent him from breaking through overnight."

Yue Fei and Wang Yuan discussed a few words in a low voice, and immediately ordered to transfer Wang Gui's tenth army, the eleventh army, Abaddon's second army, Xin Xingzong's army, and Hu Litao's grain shooting army to immediately launch an attack on the battlefield on the north line. He ordered Lin Chong, Wu Jie, Luo Lan, Han Shizhong, and Fang Jin to lead the cavalry and infantry to cooperate with Gao Baolong, Wang Dazhong and Miao Fu on the eastern front to do their best to surround the Xi army.

The battlefield is now very chaotic, and it is quite difficult for the commanders to send the orders to the front line to successfully reach the hands of the commanders of the army. Therefore, at the beginning of the attack, Yue Fei and the generals agreed that the commanders would shoot artillery and rockets into the sky when necessary to indicate their location. When the commanders of the army saw it, they would immediately send people to search to ensure that the orders could be delivered in time.

Each messenger was accompanied by a team of guards from the Chief Commander Division. When Yue Fei's order was issued, teams of fully armed knights held up torches, rushed out of the commander camp like a lightning, and quickly disappeared into the darkness.

Wanyan Zongfu was awakened by a sudden sound of horse hooves. The dull sound of horse hooves hit his heart like thunder, making him feel extremely suffocated. Zongfu couldn't help but breathe a few strong breaths, then jumped up and hurried into the main tent.

Several scouts rolled and crawled into the tent, sweating profusely all over their bodies. Seeing Wanyan Zongfu, they knelt down and panted, saying, "Master, the Tiger Lie Army launched an attack..."

Zong Fu was shocked and his face suddenly changed. He subconsciously thought that the Hu Lie Army was going to attack him, so he asked anxiously: "Where is the Hu Lie Army? How many roads are there to go to the camp?"

"The Hu Lie Army is attacking the six ministries of the Dutong (Wanyan Talai Lai)." The scout was even more anxious when he saw Zong Fu's judgment was wrong and couldn't help but scream, "The sound of killing on the Wanting battlefield is like thunder. The Hu Lie Army is all dispatched, and the momentum is very amazing."

Old Zong Fu's face turned red and his expression was quite embarrassing, but when he thought of Wanyan Talan and Shandong Jin Army who were attacked by the Tiger Lieutenant Army, he immediately became anxious and shouted to the entourage: "Hurry up, summon the commanders of each army and go to the commander's tent to discuss matters immediately."

Several scouts told them in detail about what they had found in the investigation. According to their judgment, the Tiger Lie Army raided late at night and was well prepared, and it was very likely to break through the blockade of the Shandong Jin army. The battle situation was very critical.

After the scout left, Zong Fu was frightened and wandered around in the tent. It was obvious that after seeing the Hebei Jin army heading south again to support, the Hulien Army accelerated its attack speed and tried to eat the Shandong Jin army as soon as possible. If Wanyan Talan's entire army was wiped out, not only would Shandong be lost, but Hebei would be in danger.
