Southern Song Counterattack

Wanyan Tusuhe and other generals were responsible for each other. Wanyan Zongbi himself wore a white robe, armed with a horse, and led Thousand-Tyrannical soldiers to look around to supervise the entire army. Before the war, he promised: Whoever attacked the city first, the children of this city would plunder the jade and silk with him...

The day was sunny and cloudless, with a very good view. Wanyan Zongbi was very satisfied with this. He clearly saw the city defense equipment on the top of Shunchang City and almost laughed...

It's really hard to make for Liu Qi! What raw materials can you find in six or seven days? Even if there are deep mountains nearby, you can cut big wood into the old forest, and you don't have time to transport it back to process it into combat equipment. At this time, the ones placed on the city were all window frames, door panels and other things that were unloaded from the houses, and they were pieced together, barely playing the role of protective gear... What a pity, good boots! Siege the city!

10,000 Jin soldiers attacked the city at the same time. The enemy was like a tide, and the city was like an isolated island. There were only 18,000 people defending in Shunchang City. How to support this? Reality forced Liu Qi to do his best from the beginning, otherwise the first wave of offensive would not be able to survive! But this man just hid his strength. He kept the most elite 5,000 soldiers on the second line and said nothing!

At this time, I have to tell the secret of these 5,000 people. This is definitely not something that Liu Qi asked. It is really the Eight Characters Army who set out from Lin'an, which is called ten thousand, and there are more than a thousand imperial guards, which are considered subsidies and constraints. It is nothing but this. Liu Qi came from a general family, and how to sort out the internal army was common since childhood. The fatal thing is the Eight Characters Army who claimed to be ten thousand, and the family members accounted for more than half of them!

Now do you know why so many women and families are involved in sharpening their knives and feeding their horses?

Faced with the Jin army with a significantly unbalanced proportion, Liu Qi could use only 5,000 maneuvering power at most. The remaining people, including their families, had to send the city wall to participate in the defense! God knows how brave this must be to dare to implement it. Because the Divine Arm Bow and other combat equipment are not used by anyone, it can be said that every soldier is crucial! Similarly, if any point in Shunchang City Defense is broken, it will cause the entire city wall to lose control!

In Liu Qi's plan, the winning trick is to wait until noon! Until then, everything will turn around! Before this? Let's wait!

The 10,000 Jin army besieged the two east and west gates for a whole morning, and Shunchang City remained unmoved. There was a piece of armor placed on a certain location in the south wall of Shunchang. Liu Qi walked over from time to time and touched it until it was hot in the sun...

There was only one sun, and the armor of the Han and Jurchens were the same. At this time, the armor on the city was so hot that it was hot, and the armor of the Jin army on the battlefield below would not be different.

Liu Qi ordered: 5,000 people left the city to fight!

Which city gate is the key? Someone suggested that it was the West Gate, and the head of the Jin army was Han Chang over there, so he was very sure to overthrow his Eight Characters Army. But Liu Qi shook his head. Even if he killed Han Chang in the formation, he would just cut off the Jin army's finger! Let's go out of the southern gate and kill Wanyan Zongbi!

That day, Wanyan Zongbi, like every Jurchen soldier, was so hot that he was dizzy under the poisonous sun in June, and was washing a sauna in his hot armor. When the gate of Shunchang opened and 5,000 Song army infantry rushed towards him, he had no sense of crisis at all. Because he was surrounded by the most elite cavalry of the Jin army - Tiefutu, Guaizima!

The Buddha was an iron tower in Buddhism. The Jin army's Iron Futu cavalry were wearing heavy armor and connected together to charge together. It was an unstoppable torrent of steel at that time. Since the Jurchens started the army, the Song and Liao battlefields have maintained a record of victory. At this time, they had 10,000 heavy troops and were heavily guarded by the Iron Futu. Jin Wushu could not find any reason for the crisis...

Liu Qi's infantrymen were approaching. They held big swords and long axes, and they looked like they were doing heavy work, but they wanted to defeat Tiefutu in this way? The Jin cavalry was not holding a willow pole. But closer, the Jurchens discovered that there were still things on the backs of the Song army's infantry, which looked like bamboo tubes... What is this?

The two armies were about to join each other, and bamboo tubes were opened and thrown to the ground. At this time, the Tiefutus realized that something was wrong. The bamboo tubes were filled with beans. Damn beans, according to the "History of the Song Dynasty. Biography of Liu Qi", the beans were ripe. The battle of the Jin army [31 Novel Network                                                                                                                                                                                                               

But I personally think this is not realistic. Think about the hot weather, the armor is so hot that it is hot. Will the war horses wrapped in iron armor feel good? Can they still fight to eat beans? Where do they get such a good appetite? Rather than saying that the beans have overturned the Tiefutu, I am more inclined to think that the poisonous river water overturned the Jin army last night...

The Jin cavalry slipped and fell one by one, some were tripped by beans and bamboo tubes, some were chopped by the Eight Characters Axes, and more were brought down by the iron chains that were linked to each other. Once the chaos was affected, it could never stop. The Song army infantry quickly broke through the Iron Pagoda and approached Jin Wushu!

At this moment, what was Wanyan Zongbing doing with the pride of the powerful Jurchen tribe? He should be furious, put away his sword and gun in a deafening roar, and pulled out his boots from the stirrups... Since he could not use his boots to kick down the Shunchang city wall, then use it to deal with Liu Qi's infantry! Unfortunately, he actually... possessed by Song Taizong Zhao Guangyi! He actually turned around and ran away!

There is no record that Jin Wushu was approached by Liu Qi's soldiers, and his swords, guns and weapons were not close to him. He was not even shot by an arrow like Zhao Guangyi. In this way, he actually started to escape! The soldiers around him were more than Zhao Guangyi's elite than the city of Youzhou that year. He had 10,000 heavy troops and had not consumed much. How could he lead the way and escape?

But that's what he did, and once he started running, he never stopped and ran all the way from Shunchang to Kaifeng. The speed he used was about the same as when he came...

This is really a arduous physical expenditure. Wanyan Zongbi was so tired that he was "irritable" and "don't stop vomiting blood" were very clear medical records. His Highness the Fourth Prince was so angry that he vomited blood. But why didn't he regroup and fight back? Since he was so angry, he would go back and kill someone to vent his anger! Liu Qi's infantry could not follow him all the time, chase him all the way into Kaifeng City, and he could turn back at any time.

The only thing he did on the road was to sleep in Taihe County, Yingzhou for two days, recover his strength, and then continue to flee north. After escaping into Chenzhou City, he tied Wanyan Tusuhe and Han Chang to a big tree and slapped hard. The reason was that the Dragon and Tiger King had been nagging in his ears, saying that this southern invasion was too failed and he shouldn't have come at all... This Wanyan Tusuhe is so annoying!

But Han Chang was depressed: What's the matter with me? Is it still natural to slap me together for Mao's pulling?

Afterwards, Wanyan Zongbi ordered Wanyan Bao to guard Guide Mansion, Han Chang guard Xuzhou, Zhai guard Chenzhou, and he led more than 100,000 troops to flee north again...

On the 1st, Shunchang City was relieved. The Battle of Shunchang ended! The Jin army fled back to Henan and the turtle retreated into Kaifeng City. Liu Qi's combat power was really terrible! Wanyan Zongbi insisted that this was not the army of the Song Dynasty, but the "ghost soldiers" borrowed from foreign countries. From then on, Liu Qi left a huge shadow in the hearts of the Jurchens. Until decades later, when the Jin emperor Wanyan Liang invaded the south, this sequelae could not be eliminated... As the last member of the Western Army of the Song Dynasty, Liu Qi put huge pressure on the Jin Dynasty until the last breath of his life, and used his strength to block Wanyan Liang's millions of troops on the north bank of the Yangtze River!

Just when the Battle of Shunchang was in full swing, Yue Fei had already started to take action! Ezhou was moving very quickly. Yue Fei quickly gathered his troops and launched the fourth and last, most brilliant and helpless Northern Expedition of the Yue family army! This was a huge threat. If Liu Qi shocked the Jin army still within the digestible range, then Yue Fei's actions were enough to shock them and give up the initiative to attack...

This time, Yue Fei sent troops, Zhao Gou, and Qin Hui ordered him to do this in the form of official documents. The reason for supporting this is not that the two of them suddenly had a sound memory and found that they were from the Song Dynasty. Instead, the Sichuan-Shaanxi direction was in a hurry, forcing the Song Dynasty to take the initiative to attack on the middle battlefield to alleviate the pressure there...

At this time, the total force of the Yue family army was about 100,000, and the entire army was divided into 1 army, with a total name of the commander, 5 commanders, and 5 generals. Among them, the chief general and the deputy general, each prepared to be 84 generals... Wang Gui was appointed as the commander of the central army, and Zhang Xian was the commander of the former army, and was Yue Fei's right-hand man. When Yue Fei was not in the army, he could take charge of military affairs. Xu Qing, Niu Gao, and Dong were the main combat forces and often stood alone.

Almost the entire Yue family army attacked. When Han Shizhong and Zhang Jun were still gathering and waiting for a standby, their troops were divided into two groups and launched the Northern Expedition from the Xinyang Army and Guangzhou directions! Niu Gao marched into Jingxi Road and won the first battle on June 1.

On the 16th, Liu Guangshi's army crossed the Yangtze River and stationed in Hezhou on Huainan West Road. On the same day, Guo Hao ordered Zheng Jianchong to lead Fuyan and the two routes of Huanqing to join forces, defeat the Jin army in Lizhou and recover Lizhou. Wanyan Saliyu faced Wu Lin and Yang Zheng across the Wei River, sighing, "Those who are good at fighting are invincible, and this is difficult to fight with each other." So he arranged for the withdrawal. The withdrawal route was from Fengxiang Prefecture to Jingyuan Road, and then to Binzhou on Huanqing Road. At this time, Guo Hao was in Sanshui County, Binzhou. Tian Sheng's general Qu Ji and Qin Bi were in Qingxiling. Hu Shi General asked Wang Yan, the acting chief general of Fuyan Road, to urgently send troops to Qingxiling to cut off the Jin army's retreat. When Qu Ji and Qin Bi were unable to stop the fierce attack of the Jin army and abandoned them one after another, on the 1st, Wang Yan defeated the Jin army at Qingxiling and forced Wanyan Saliyu back to Fengxiang Prefecture again...

On the same day, Sun Xian, the commander of the Yue Family Army, fought against the Jin army in Chenzhou and Caizhou on the northwest road of Jingxi, and was defeated.

At this time, the Lin'an court's edict was caught up with the army. The edict was the staff of the three generals, and Li Ruoxu, who was in charge of the Yue family army. The imperial edict he brought was inspiring and high spirits, full of hatred for the Jin Dynasty and desire to fight, and even put forward requirements for the tactics itself. Zhao Gou hoped that Yue Fei could complete the offensive in the summer and not let the Jurchens wait until the autumn is clear and cool...

This really boosts morale! However, Li Ruoxu found Yue Fei privately and said that the emperor had another oral decree... The oral decree was very short, with only 9 words: "Soldiers should not be moved lightly, it is advisable to train the troops." The meaning is very clear, which is to warn Yue Fei not to go to the front line to cause trouble and find an opportunity to withdraw. You must understand the emperor. The reason why he used the oral decree was to keep it confidential. Retreat in your own name, and don't embarrass this emperor!

Yue Fei was silent...what should he do? No matter how much he wanted to recover lost territory or kill all the enemies, from the bottom of his heart, he was a standard soldier who unconditionally obeyed any orders of the court. So at this time should he advance or retreat?

How chaotic is this scene? Yue Fei is fighting for his family, country and Zhao family, but the Emperor Zhao is tying his own hands and feet to stop Yue Fei's efforts. He also uses a vague and shameless trick to suggest...

Li Ruoxu could not bear it anymore, so he lied to Yue Fei. He said, "I am the edict, I will take responsibility for this. Just go to the expedition according to the formal edict! As for everything else, you don't know." The famous, outstanding achievements, shining in later generations and inspiring the Chinese nation for nearly a thousand years, Yue Fei was able to send troops!

On the 5th, Han Shizhong sent the commander Wang Sheng to lead the Beiwei General Cheng Min to the Northern Expedition! He encountered the Jin army 0 miles south of the Huaiyang Army on the East Road of Jingdong. In a fierce battle, countless Jin army drowned in Yishui, and more than 00 ships were seized...

On the same day, Cao Cheng, on the order of Yang Zheng, set out from Fengyang County in Longzhou and attacked Tianxing County, Fengxiang Prefecture, and won the victory.

This month, a rebellion occurred in Xixia by Xiao Heda, the commander of Xiazhou. The rebels besieged Xiping Prefecture, a subsidiary of Xixia, defeated the Xia army, seriously threatening the security of the capital Xingqing Prefecture...

On June 9, Wanyan Saliyu organized a retreat again, and this time he retreated to Jingzhou on Jingyuan Road. As a result, he was led by the Jingyuan Road strategy envoy Tian Sheng to the mountain and blocked the killing. The battle was fought from Si Shi to Shen Shi, and the Jin army was defeated. However, Wanyan Saliyu received help from the Han people again. On the 1st, a surrendered general of the Song Dynasty led the Jin army around Tian Sheng. Under a sudden attack, Tian Sheng's Jingyuan army was defeated due to shock. Only about 10,000 people fought fiercely with the enemy and finally collapsed... In this battle, Wanyan Saliyu won, and he shouted "I have never beaten Wu Jie, but I defeated the Right Guard", but he was also consumed very much and retreated to Fengxiang Mansion again to rest...

General Hu had to leave Hechi and retreat to the Immortal Pass. The battle in Shaanxi was basically over! The entire army of more than 10,000 right guards died in battle, protecting the rest of the personnel and materials successfully returned to Shuchuan. Most of the strength was saved, and Shaanxi fell again...

On the 14th, General Hu was promoted to the bachelor of Duanming Hall. The three generals in Shu Wu Lin, Yang Zheng and Guo Hao were promoted to the title of Jiedu and Duhou of the Guards and Infantry Command.

Under the leadership of the commander Zhao Mi, Zhang Jun's Huaixi Army set out from Luzhou and began the northern expedition from the Yangtze River! After 6 days of marching, he arrived at the city of Suzhou on Huainan East Road. The former number one general under Liu Guangshi, Zhang Jun's favorite general, went to fight and recovered Suzhou on the 14th. Ma Qin, the Jin guardian, was captured alive.
