Chapter 27: The mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole is behind! The chance to win?
"If it weren't for Brother Yang's reminder, it almost happened! This is the bait for Wu Shu to catch our Yue family's army! The army must have rushed to Yingchang!"
Zhang Xian grabbed Yang Jun with a bright look in his eyes.
"The front army, You Yi's army obeyed the order, and Commander Yang was the vanguard and led 10,000 cavalry to Yingchang. After the rest of the cavalry were captured by Linying City, they followed me!"
Zhang Xian was definitely not a lord who knew nothing about the army. In history, after he defeated Linying, he rested in the city, and missed the battle of Yingchang, causing Yue Yun to almost die outside Yingchang City. The hardship of this battle was far greater than that of Yancheng.
After hesitating for a moment, Zhang Xian added: "The army in the front is dispatched by Yang!"
You Yijun, the front army, and other generals of the central army immediately had different visions when they saw Yang Jun. At least they were the deputy commander-in-chief. However, with the performance of Yang Zheng outside Yancheng, it would be unreasonable if they were not promoted after this battle!
Yang Jun’s heart was Da’an: With the command of these tens of thousands of cavalry, it probably wouldn’t be outside Yingchang City?
To make sure that the ten teams of scouts still set out ten miles in advance. Yang Jun led the brigade to follow, and all the people were holding a horse, and the horses were removed, and all the torches were extinguished. They marched with the moonlight and advanced according to the standard of attacking the camp.
Sure enough, it was not until Yin time that the scout cavalry in front returned and found Wushu's army and was less than fifteen miles away from Yingchang!
Fortunately, Wu Shu did not advance at full speed, but was resting on the way. The army surrounded the outer circle of defensive equipment, but it could be seen that he must have been marching quickly in the middle of the night. He sat on the ground and rested at this moment, but it was just a way to let the exhausted infantry take a breath and attack Yingchang with all his might.
"Control, Wushu's army has been running for a day and a night. If our army goes forward at this moment..." Gao Lin leaned forward and whispered his advice.
"What's the hurry?" Yang Junheng glanced at him: "Send the order, let's stop and rest!"
At this time, there was no trace of dawn in the sky. Under the moonlight, tens of thousands of people sat on the ground next to the road from Linying to Yingchang, waiting for military orders. It was fine if Gao Lin and others guessed that Yang's command would have a deep meaning, but the other two generals and captains muttered, not knowing what Yang Jun put in his gourd.
"The old thief Yang Zaixing of Wushu is ruined by you. I don't want to work hard for Zhao Gou. This battle should be avenged for the ancestors of the Yang family." Yang Jun refused to come down on the back of the horse and silently thought in his mind. People who have come from nearly nine hundred years later have no feelings for Jin and Song. To put it bluntly, they are all ancestors of the Chinese nation. No matter how much they fight in the future, they will be a family sooner or later. People in troubled times are not as good as dogs in prosperous times. Boss Yue has a bad future, so why should he fight to die?
So what if you win this battle? If you add one level to Qin Hui, you will be more likely to be targeted by Qin Hui. Maybe Wu Shu will add another one to the terms of peace talks in the future: "Kill Yue Fei and Yang Zaixing, and then have peace talks!"
At that time, even if it was a enemy of ten thousand people, it would not be able to defeat the powerful ministers of the Song Dynasty!
So the more money you can save your life, the better. First of all, you must survive on the battlefield.
The battle of Xiao Shanghe made Yang Jun's confidence soar. He knew that he had the lead after all, and had the knowledge of later generations, and had already escaped. If he was more skillful in using troops, it would not be difficult to give Wu Shu a crushing defeat. Now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Yang Zaixing in history has probably never commanded so many people. In the Yue family's army, there are 22 commanders and more than 80 deputy generals. The former Yang Commander was mostly just a spear in Yue Fei's hand, and his command ability may not be very outstanding. Otherwise, he would not have been famous for his single-handed military achievements in later generations after more than ten years of war.
The spies reported Wu Shu's movements one after another. It was not until the hour of Mao that Wu Shu ordered the army to set off. However, this time it was Yang Jun's turn to stare at the top of his eyes: "What? The gongs and drums are loud? The flags are still several miles away? Are you wrong? Should Wu Shu go to attack the city or sing an opera? He also brought a military band? He also played the suona!"
However, the military information returned by the spies still made Yang Jun secretly glad that it was right not to attack rashly earlier: Wushu's cavalry was less than 30,000, and infantry about 100,000. Such troops would not be powerless even if they encountered a surprise attack in the field. If it were the real Yang Zaixing in history, he had already pounced on him at all costs, but the result was difficult to reverse the situation.
The Yue family cavalry was indeed strict in military discipline. Although most of the soldiers just glanced a little and were still sleepy at this moment, after a military order, tens of thousands of cavalry had already boarded their horses in a moment and were ready to set off.
It has been repaired for more than an hour, but Zhang Xian still hasn't arrived. It seems that Linying's fight has not been very smooth.
When Yingchang City was about ten miles away, Yang Jun ordered the army to rest again.
The commander of You Yi Army sent a cavalry to ask, and Yang Jun only gave two words: "Military Order!"
Wushu's army stretched for nearly ten miles along the way, and now it had arrived at Yingchang City. However, the army was spread out, and there were also horses moving five miles away from Yingchang City. Ten miles away, the noise and drum horns under Yingchang City could be heard. If you go further, Wushu might not be willing to attack the city with all his strength.
The front team of the Yue family army was hiding ten miles away from the city. Wu Shu did not carefully observe it, probably not knowing that he had been attacked from both sides. But at this moment, he was all focused on the top of Yingchang City. Yue family army? It should be still cleaning the Linying battlefield. Wu Shu did not feel any guilt for the 8,000 miscellaneous troops in Linying City. They could hold the Yue family army firmly for one day and have already done their best. As long as the battle under Yingchang City is easy, they will be given a generous pension when they go back.
Yang Jun brought several deputy generals and quietly touched a mound two miles away from the Wushu army. He watched the fierce battle at the Yingchang city wall from afar. Flags were waving under the city, killing sounds shook the sky, cannon stones flew everywhere, and beacon smoke rose everywhere. On dozens of long ladders, Jin soldiers fell from time to time, and corpses continued to fall on the top of the city.
"Yang Tongzheng, at this moment, Wu Shu only looked at the top of the city. If our army kicked it up, I was afraid that he would not hit him..." Yao You looked at the fun of fighting under the city and muttered with fingers.
"Bang!"
Yang Jun gave a thunderous look: "Shake a panic! When is the most cost-effective time for us to attack? Let's take a break first!"
Li De and Yao You looked at each other and murmured: Yang's rule was even more warlike than us before. When did we start to calculate "is it cost-effective"?
Just after noon, Wushu's army's courage had already been defeated, and the tired soldiers had no power to attack the city. As Wushu's army circle opened, a rare silence appeared under the city wall. A small number of golden cavalry circled around the city. From a distance, I didn't know what they were doing. It was probably a verbal battle.
On the city gate tower, more than a dozen generals of the Yue family army stood. The distance was too far to see which ones were, but there must be Yue Yun, Wang Gui and others.
Yang Jun turned over and lay down, chewing the grass roots leisurely and squinted his eyes to rest.
Gao Lin was so narrated: Why is the Yue Family Gun God so free? If you don’t fight a war, it’s definitely not the style of Yang Tongzhi!
"Control, Yue's army has attacked!" Li De shouted softly.
Yang Jun was a little more energetic and patted Gao Lin casually: "Tell me brothers, now you use some dry food and you're about to attack."
Gao Lin left, shook his head, "You're still letting you eat at this moment?"
Under the "Yue" flag, hundreds of elite cavalry rushed out of the city gate. Yang Jun glanced: Damn, it was the 800 Beiwei Army that Yue Yun came to support! Isn't this the move of Yancheng? But what is slightly different is that there is a big banner with "Wang". So, the deputy general Wang Gui also came out?
The cavalry under Wu Shu immediately surrounded and wrapped the 800 Beiwei Army in the center of the formation.
"General Yang! We..." Wang Lan couldn't help but speak.
Chapter completed!
