The entire north, from along the Jianguan Pass to Luning Pingyang, and then extending north to Yumen Pass, the battlefield stretches for hundreds of kilometers. It can be said that the north is full of wars. Both the Northern Expeditionary Army and the Mongolian Army have spent all their wealth.

A duel of fate.

Unlike Yun Zhao who placed the basis of the decisive victory in Yumen Pass, Yaerdan placed his hope in Linya. Along the Yumen Pass, Yaerdan knew that it would be very difficult. After Yun Zhao regained Yumen Pass, he would definitely be vigilant, and Shi

Shi Gandang is another veteran who has been stationed at Yumen Pass for many years. As the most capable general under Sima Ren at that time, Shi Gandang knew the advantages and disadvantages of the Sima family's army very well. In this battle, the chance of winning was extremely slim. Yun Zhao used his combat power to

The strongest Lucheng Battalion, Anqing Battalion, Cavalry Battalion and his personal guards were all stuck along the Jianguan Pass. The Panshi Battalion assembled in Pingyang and Luning areas and Huo Zhenting's Sixth Battalion were relatively weak.

The two battle camps, especially Huo Zhenting's Sixth Battalion stationed in Luning, are the focus of Yaerdan's target this time. It is Huo Zhenting's Sixth Battalion that Lin Ya has to deal with this time.

Lin Ya sent Xiao Lixi and Xiao Lituo brothers to lead 20,000 cavalry to attack Pingyang, while he led the main force to attack the Luning area. Huo Zhenting had a full force and only had two troops. The city wall of Huining County, the land of Ji Ling in the Luning area, was low.

Short and thin, relatively speaking, it is much easier to fight.

In the Northland at this time, each front is like a pair of dominoes. As long as one falls, it will inevitably cause a chain reaction. A defeat on any battlefield may cause an overall collapse. If Lin Ya is defeated in Luning,

Huo Zhenting not only regained this grain-producing area and temporarily relieved the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty from the food crisis, but without Huo Zhenting's support, Hu Zehua's Panshi Camp in Pingyang would certainly be unable to withstand Lin Ya's full attack. Once these two places failed,

Lin Ya's army will soon return to Jian Pass, breaking the current balance of Jian Zhi.

The opposite was also true, but it was Meng Yuan who failed.

If Yunzhao fails, he will have no choice but to retreat to Yihua, and Luzhou will not be able to be saved. Yao Changkun's Qinyi Liangpu will also be cut off from Yizhou, and this area where only the fifth battalion is stationed will also become the Mongolian Yuan's territory.

With this delicious taste in his mouth, Yun Zhao will be knocked back to his original shape.

If Meng Yuan fails, he will have no choice but to retreat to Yanjing, and Yun Zhao, who takes advantage of the momentum to advance, can besiege Yanjing City and Meng Yuan will be gone.

"Xiao Lixi, Xiao Lituo! The two of you must block Hu Zehua in Pingyang Mansion and not let them go to aid the enemy in Luning Mansion step by step!" Lin Ya said: "Twenty thousand cavalry versus 20,000 infantry.

, if you still can’t stop your opponent, then cut off your own heads!”

Xiao Lituo waved his fist in the air: "Prince, don't worry, if this Hu Zehua holds the city and defends it, that's all. If he dares to come forward and want to rescue Lu Ning, then you will see how our brothers use

The cavalry’s mobility superiority wiped them out one by one!”

"If they defend, they do have an advantage. Pingyang is not like Luning. The mountains are high and the roads are dangerous. But if they want to attack, you will have an advantage, but you must not be careless. Hu Zehua has been stationed in Anqing for many years, and after Yun Zhao captured Yizhou, this time

We are still ordered to guard Anqing. We have defeated our Meng Yuan generals many times. You have a good way to deal with cavalry. Remember it. Don't be greedy for merit or rush forward. You just need to seal him in Pingyang Mansion for me. As long as I am here

When Lu Ning defeated Huo Zhenting and returned to Jianguan, even though he knew that he would suffer heavy losses in the field battle, he still had to come out. Otherwise, if we rushed to Jianguan, the Northern Expedition Army would be completely defeated. At that time, it was our best chance to annihilate them.

Good time!" Lin Ya looked at the two of them sternly, "Remember?"

"Remember, Prince, don't be greedy for success and don't make rash advances!"

Luning Mansion was the grain-producing area of ​​the original Tanzhou. The grain produced here almost supplied the needs of the entire Tanzhou. After the Meng Yuan captured Tanzhou City, Sima Ren took up residence here and contended with the Meng Yuan for two years.

With the retreat of Li Xiao's army, the Sima family surrendered, and this area was captured by the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty. In the following years, the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty finally solved the food crisis and had enough energy to launch a large-scale attack on Dai Viet.

There was food in the warehouse, and the then Emperor Wuda of the Meng Yuan Dynasty dared to send 200,000 troops south. However, with the defeat of Cangjiang, Lu Ning was finally lost under the attack of the Northern Army, so Meng Yuan immediately returned

It was in the most embarrassing state, and what was even more frightening was that Yumen Pass fell immediately, which cut off Meng Yuan's supplies from outside the Great Wall, and was completely screwed. Yaldan launched a large-scale attack on Jian Pass, but kept a close eye on it.

In Lu Ning, it is not unreasonable. If Lu Yu Mansion is recaptured, at least Meng Yuan can extend the time of confrontation with the Northern Expedition Army.

Lin Ya, Yardan's most trusted and capable general, was placed here by Yardan in the hope that he could retake this area.

It was already October, and the crops in Lu Ning had been harvested. This year’s bumper harvest had made the entire Lu Ning Mansion’s granary fully stocked. When Lin Ya’s army entered Lu Ning Mansion, they saw neat crop stubbles all over the ground.

He was even more eager to capture this area as soon as possible. Unknown to others, Lin Ya knew that if the Mongolian Yuan did not obtain enough food before winter came, then the entire Mongolian Yuan army would be in dire straits.

Without food, what can we say about military morale? Without food, what can we say about victory?

For Lin Ya's attack, Huo Zhenting was obviously well prepared. Forcing the wall and clearing the field was his first move against Lin Ya. All the people had been moved away by him. Anyway, Lu Ning had a good harvest this year, and Huo Zhenting was rich, so he could afford to feed these people.

, What's more, Lu Ning's militia reserves have also developed greatly in the past two years. In this battle, he is also useful. As for some other people, roads need to be repaired, ditches may need to be cleaned, or the ditches may need to be cleaned.

Newly dug. In short, according to the plan of the Industrial Development Department of the Governor's Office of the Northern Army, the people under the rule cannot have free time. They farm during busy farming periods and build various infrastructures during slack periods.

Young adults also need to undergo military training at the request of the Martial Arts Department.

Officials from the Xingye Department and the Martial Arts Department stationed in various places were busy with this matter. Although the atmosphere in Lu Ning was a bit solemn due to the current war, everyone was doing what they were supposed to do and did not panic because of it.

Groups of militiamen put on brand-new military uniforms, walked out from villages in various places, and converged on the county government. After gathering into a large force, they set off to Luning Mansion.

Lu Ning Mansion had already prepared the standard armor and flags of the Tong Sixth Battalion. Once these preparations were delivered to Lu Ning Mansion, all members were changed into uniforms and transformed into soldiers of the Sixth Battalion.

Huo Zhenting stood on the city tower and smiled as he watched the soldiers who were mixed with the soldiers of the Sixth Battalion and headed towards the front line. "Lin Ya, last time you were beaten by Cheng Qun until you went home naked, this time

, let’s see if you still have such good luck?” Huo Zhenting was very happy, Lin Ya was a famous general in the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty, and it was his honor to defeat him.

"General Huo, I'm afraid Lin Ya never dreamed that he would face not the 20,000 soldiers of the Sixth Battalion, but an army of more than 50,000 people!" Deputy General Tong Dawei on the side chuckled.

Huo Zhenting smiled, "That's not the point. The combat effectiveness of this militia reserve is far from that of the regular combat troops. No matter how many people there are, they can't defeat Lin Ya. So Dawei, this time you went to the front line to command. Although you were defeated, you still can't defeat Lin Ya."

You must defeat in a decent way, but don't collapse in one blow and let Lin Ya see the flaw."

Tong Dawei nodded, "Don't worry, General Huo, I will be careful. There are many of our regular soldiers mixed in these militia reserves, and the leaders are all veterans, so they won't be too bad. More importantly,

They were fighting on their own soil, and they were more concerned about defending their homeland than anyone else. Behind them were their parents, wives and children! During the Mongolian rule, they suffered a lot. The suffering had just passed, how could they not remember it?

Yu Xin, haven’t you seen their fighting spirit?”

"It is certain that they are passionate about fighting, but I am afraid that the tragic battlefield will completely defeat their enthusiasm. At this time, it is up to you!"

"Yes, it's just General Huo. After this battle, the militia preparations in the Luning area will probably suffer heavy losses. The loss of too many young and strong laborers will be detrimental to Luning, right?" Tong Dawei was a little worried...

"War is like this. For the final victory, sacrifices must be made. Linya's tens of thousands of cavalry are not vegetarians. They are hard-on-hard. We can't get better. We can only cut off our arms. Lu Ning made sacrifices, but he can help us win."

The final victory, our victory is Lu Ning's victory. At least, they saved their wives and children." A slightly cruel smile appeared on Huo Zhenting's face, "Ci does not have the power to lure Lin Ya into our trap.

The first step is to make him misjudge our strength, and the second step is to make him misjudge that we have defeated our main force. As long as he makes mistakes on these two points, Lin Ya will usher in the second crisis in his life.

This was a major defeat, and in order to achieve this, we cannot be soft-hearted."

"Yes, General Huo will save it!" Tong Dawei nodded and looked at the troops who were singing war songs and marching away. I wonder if these people would be so excited and upset if they knew that they were sent to die by General Huo.

Hot-blooded?

"The last general is gone!" Tong Dawei adjusted his mood and cheered himself up again. General Huo was right. For the final victory, no matter how much sacrifice he made, it was worth it. He saluted Huo Zhenting and strode down.

He went to the city tower to seek defeat. The final decisive battle will begin under Luning City, and in Huo Zhenting's hands, there is a backup move and a killer move that Yun Zhao has prepared for him! As long as

The complete annihilation of Lin Ya's troops under Lu Ning's city was the first domino toppled, and the chain effect would immediately be felt across the board. Lu Ning's decisive victory would be the turning point in this battle between the two armies.

.

Seeing Tong Dawei's banner disappear from his sight, Huo Zhenting turned around and walked towards the city, "Notify the generals to come to the Yamen to discuss matters!" (. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian (this article
