The Struggle of the Reborn Prince

In the history of wars between ancient and modern times, China and abroad, a large number of annihilation wars that eliminated the opponent's living forces were usually a turning point to change the contrast between the strengths and weaknesses of both sides. For example, the Battle of Stalingrad in the Soviet-German War, the three major battles in the War of Liberation, etc. This is due to the fact that

After a unit is eliminated in an organization, the new unit will not be able to achieve combat effectiveness in the short term.

During the years when the Song-Jin War lasted, the Song army was in a state of escape and defense. Not only did they annihilate more than one thousand-man troops in the Jin army, but they also did not even have many cases of annihilatement of the Jin army's 100-man troops. Although in the later stage, they were in Zhongxing.

The army suffered a lot of casualties under the attack, but because it was rarely eliminated in an organization, its damaged troops were replenished with the ferry soldiers and the wing army, and they could quickly restore combat effectiveness with the old and the new.

This time, Zhao Qi mobilized nearly 50,000 troops from the Zhongxing Army's lion general, wolf general and tiger general, and each directly affiliated team, a total of nearly 50,000 troops from 18 brigades. In addition, the rebels and prefecture troops in Hebei region already have more than 100,000 troops.

Not only is the number more than Han Libu troops, but the quality of joining the ZTE army has exceeded that of the enemy. When the Emperor of the Supreme Emperor was safely sent back to Henan, all the troops responsible for "Zhakouzi" were also deployed in place, and the decisive battle was at the moment.

Already arrived.

The purpose of this battle was that Zhao Jia planned to annihilate three to four 10,000 troops of the Jin army and severely damaged the rest, making it unable to form combat effectiveness for a long time, forcing the Jin army to turn into a defensive and changing the passive defensive situation of the Song Dynasty.

.Correction of internal affairs for yourself, restoring the economy, and training the army to gain time, laying the foundation for future counterattacks.

The most elite troops of Han Libu are Wanyan Loushi, Wanyan Xiyin and Wanyan Zongpan, and Han Libu's direct relatives, and then the Han army led by Liu Yanzong. Zhao Qi

He pointed his finger at them, and Zhao Lian formulated a combat plan based on the prince's intentions. Now, because the Wuma Mountain Village has not been defeated for a long time, these elite soldiers have successively entered the battle and are attracted in the mountains.

The Jin army has now mobilized most of its troops and divided them into two groups, east and west, along the east and west lines of Tiebi Pass to Chaotian Pass, the main line of the mountain vein. At present, the Jin army only occupied some small positions around, some of the high ground and the slopes of the peaks, and there was no

Shaking the defense line of the Song army, they still firmly control the iron wall gate and the surrounding commanding heights. To achieve the purpose of encircling and annihilation of the Jin army, the various units of the Song army must act in concert. The key is to encircle and split. The key to encircling and annihilation of the enemy is the first

It is to encircle and prevent the enemy from escaping; the second is to split the surrounded enemies so that they can annihilate them...

On May 30, after being besieged for more than a month, the ZTE army made efforts. The first target to be attacked was Wanyan Loushi, which can be said to be the backbone of the Jin army and has always been the pioneer of its troops to attack the city.

The land was very fierce, and Lou Shi was also a rare savage among the Jurchens. It was cruel, perseverance, bravery, and wise. It can be said that it had all the qualities of a general. First of all, annihilation of Lou Shi's troops can not only boost morale,

Moreover, it can deal a heavy blow to Han Li Bu’s Western Route Army, which is equivalent to breaking his right-hand man.

The Loushi tribe is located on the east side of the main vein of Wuma Mountain. In recent times, its tribe replaced the exhausted Wanyan Zongqing tribe, and launched a series of attacks under the coordination of the Han army, conquering the Iron-Bi Pass and entering the

The hinterland of the village can be said to be in sight, but I don’t know that Zhao Jie’s plan to lure the enemy into depth.

After midnight, the weather turned cold. Without the heat of the day, the wolf generals of the Zhongxing Army also showed their long-hidden fangs. They divided into three groups to set out from the village, responsible for closing the mountain pass and cutting off the gold.

The army retreated; one way to capture the high ground on the east side of the Tiebiguan to block the enemy's reinforcements; the other way to split the connection between the enemy troops from the east and west, and block the road they broke through from the west.

The moonless night is as dark as ink, and the shadow of the mountains blocks the last little starlight in the sky. The bird's valley is a narrow winding valley in the mountains, like a thin knife mark left by a sharp blade on the mountain.

, because birds may hit the mountain wall when flying, they are named. At this moment, under the guidance of the guide, the Second Brigade was about to travel to the mountain pass ten miles away before the battle started, and the Jin army was first blocked.

Way of retreat.

In the darkness, people's eyes cannot see three feet at the farthest distance, and the enemy has outposts on the ridge, so there cannot be any light. However, there are many forks in the valley, and those who are unfamiliar with them will be lost in it during the day and march in the darkness.

The soldiers could only keep a close eye on the white cloth tied to the backpack of the person in front of them so that they would not fall behind and go in the wrong direction.

Darkness is not their biggest enemy. The valley is full of thorns and rocks. The narrowest place can only be two people in parallel, and the widest place can only be arranged in four columns. The head and tail of a brigade can be separated by one head and tail.

It is far away. Once discovered by the enemy, the consequences will be unimaginable. However, because the people here are difficult to move, there are no troops stationed.

"How far is it from the mountain pass?" The lush vegetation in the valley blocked the night wind, and it was unbearable. Zhang Yue wiped his sweat and asked the vanguard who returned to report the situation.

"Report to the brigade, the vanguard is less than two miles away from the mountain pass!" said the vanguard in a low voice.

"Have the enemy situation changed?" Zhang Yue asked.

"Reporting to the brigade, the situation is as normal, and a team of 500 people settling down at the mountain pass!" said the pioneer.

"Well, tell the commander of the first battalion to concentrate its forces to break through in one fell swoop, and do not throw troops into a war of attrition one after another!" Zhang Yue said, and the vanguard could return to the front army to pass the orders after accepting the orders.

Knowing that the vanguard arrived on time, Zhang Yue did not dare to slow down. Their task was the most arduous. If the follow-up troops could not catch up, then more than 10,000 cavalry in the valley flocked out, relying on a battalion without solid fortifications.

If you can't defend it, let the enemy escape, the battle plan that has been planned for a long time will be ruined. At that time, the prince will have to peel off his skin...

When it was dawn, the battle for the mountain pass started first. At this moment, Zhang Yue did not care about his whereabouts and rushed to the mountain pass at a fast march, ignoring the threat of intercepting the Jin army. When he arrived at the mountain pass, he rushed to the mountain pass at all.

The battle there was over. The first battalion captured the Jin army's camp and controlled the commanding heights on both sides, but the situation was still not optimistic.

The mountain pass is a hundred feet wide, but there are no tall trees on Wuma Mountain, and there are gravel in the valley. There are mostly hard stones on the mountain that cannot be built at all. The difficulty of the plain defense must withstand the attacks on both sides. After Zhang Yue arrived,

After a little thought, you can order the engineer team to choose a hillside with loose soil and rocks to perform blasting, use the sliding soil and rocks to reduce the width of the hill, and use it as a cover. The gap in the middle is filled with a backpack and gravel as a sandbag to seal it, in the shortest time

The mountain pass was closed. Then Zhang Yue ordered the second battalion and the third battalion to capture multiple commanding heights on both sides of the mountain pass and completed the battle preparations...

The mountain encirclement and annihilation battle was also a fierce positional battle. The Song army launched a general attack at the time of Yin and launched attacks from all directions. The enemy Lou Shi and Han military units rely on the mountains on both sides of the occupied Iron Wall Pass, relying on huge rocks, and constantly facing each other.

He launched a counterattack on me and sent troops to fight for the mountain pass, trying to restore contact with the outside world.

From a tactical point of view, relying on the counter-shock of the position, the opponent can be given a considerable amount of damage. Moreover, in order to compete for every mountain and high ground, the Song army had to attack from bottom to top. Each gram of a little, often passing several times or dozens of times.

Charge and fight repeatedly until the bayonet is red, and its intensity is rare since the Zhongxing Army went to war.

With its sharp firearms and tenacious fighting style, the Zhongxing Army successively crushed the enemy's stubborn resistance and narrowed the encirclement. Under the pressure of the Song army's powerful offensive, Wanyan Loushi organized a large-scale counterattack, first facing south and west.

, and then went east to find a gap to attack, trying to break through the encirclement, they were all repelled by the Zhongxing Army and were severely injured. By the evening, the besieged Jin army had been compressed into a narrow mountainous area of ​​three miles east and two miles north and south. The area was extremely vegetation and trees.

There are few, the water sources are very short of, the Jin army is in short supply of arrows, unable to obtain effective reinforcements, and is in a difficult situation of extreme hunger and thirst.

The next morning, the Song army launched another attack, first concentrating powerful artillery firepower and bombarding fiercely at the dense hills and high grounds of the enemy. In the thick smoke and fire, the enemy's flesh and blood and rock fragments flew together, forming a chaos, and the infantry was powerful.

The fierce attack under the cover of artillery fire, and the more you fight, the braver the rebels of the village also joined the battle of encirclement and annihilation. They were already red in their eyes and rushed wherever there was an enemy, rushing to the Jin army to pieces...

The battle of blocking aid was a arduous position defense battle. After discovering that the mountain pass was occupied, Han Li Bu ordered Wanyan Zongqing to retake the mountain pass. The Second Brigade used the existing field fortifications to carry out a tenacious blocking, like a solid embankment on both sides.

Under the enemy's situation, it blocked wave after wave of the enemy's attack. Liu Yanzong's troops attempted to attack Loushi from the eastern foot of Wuma Mountain, which was relatively flat, but were blocked by the third brigade of the wolf generals. The fierce battle only advanced without any progress.

When I arrived a mile, I couldn't meet with Loushi by two ridges.

The Jin army on Wumashan West Road was originally used to intercept the Song army breaking through Chaotian Pass. At this time, when the reinforcements of each unit failed, they were ordered to prepare to return to the rescue, but they found that a large number of Song troops appeared in the direction of Jingxing Road. They crossed.

After passing Huaishui, they came here to kill, so that they did not dare to move.

At the same time, Han Libu also received a report from the detective cavalry that the Song army in Zhongshan Town had captured Zhending and approached Zan Huang quickly. The Song army in Guide Prefecture and Xinde Prefecture also advanced northward to approach Zhaozhou, in Jizhou.

The Zhongxing Army, which confronted Zonghan's troops, suddenly turned straight here. He realized that the Song army was going to encircle his troops and leave him here.

Now there are two ways in front of him. One is to rescue Lou Shi with all his strength and then concentrate his troops to fight the Song army to the decisive battle. But he also knows that if he has almost no chance of winning, he will definitely pay a heavy price to rescue Lou Shi with the remaining soldiers.

The battle with the Song army is very good and bad; the other way is to give up Lou Shi, gather all your strength and use the advantages of your cavalry to retreat quickly before the Song army encirclement is completed, and jump out of the encirclement... (To be continued...)
