Chapter 1156 Attack on Jiangcheng (1)
Chapter 1156 Attacking Kaijiang City (Part 1)
These armies are composed of imperial guards and defenders of various prefectures. Their components are mixed, and their combat effectiveness may not be considered strong, but after all, there are so many people. Liu Hongyi and others dare not attack the city easily.
As a result, the border of the Song Dynasty suddenly became a little calmer.
After experiencing the first few battles, all parties have some understanding of the other party's strength. Now they are afraid that they are thinking about solutions to the enemy.
Another day passed like this.
Su Quandang, Liu Zaiyuan, Wenqi and others led the military and civilians back to Jiangling Mansion and confronted the Yuan army stationed in Changlin.
He Fangsong and others in Ezhou, Tianan and other troops in Longxing Prefecture have not yet confronted the Yuan army.
Although Zhao Dongting ordered them to take the initiative to fight the Yuan army, the war was a long-term thing. In this short period of time, even if they had some actions, they might not be effective.
The commander of the Tiansu Army, He Chenghua, and the commander of the Tiansha Army, Chen Diaoyan, each led a large army from Songxi, and the two counties of Zhenghe were able to return to Jianning Prefecture to meet with Wen Tianxiang.
After suffering a great loss, the Yuan army in the two counties did not pursue it again.
Before they entered the city, the news of their victory had already been spread to Changsha City through carrier pigeons.
Changsha City is festive again.
When Zhao Dongting received the secret letter, he was discussing matters with Lu Xiufu and others. When he saw the secret letter, he couldn't help laughing out loud, "Haha, Songxi and Zhenghe counties have another great victory."
Lu Xiufu, Wang Wenfu and others all showed surprise.
Zhao Dongting handed the letter to Lu Xiufu and said, "Quickly pass this good news to all parts of the country!"
The Song Dynasty is in turmoil now, and such a great victory is needed to soothe people's hearts. Only with ever-win can the people be full of hope for the Song Dynasty.
But as long as the people are always gathered under the court, the Song Dynasty will stand firm.
This good news, like the good news of Changlin Zhisheng, quickly spread to all parts of the Song Dynasty at an extremely fast speed.
Just on this day, fireworks rose into the sky in the cities around Changsha.
A few days later.
Calls to expel enemy enemies throughout the Song Dynasty were rising.
Since the war started, the Song army first destroyed the Li army of Yue, followed by the Hengshanzhai, Changlin, Songxi, and Zhenghe. These successive victories were enough to enhance the blood and enthusiasm of the people of the Song Dynasty.
Even the many public opinions that were originally caused by Zhao Xian's assassination in China quietly faded away in the successive wars.
The Song Dynasty reappeared the grand occasion of unity among the top and bottom.
All the ministries were busy and surrounded Zhao Dongting, just to protect the land of the Song Dynasty.
Zhao Dongting's request for the Supervision Province to re-implement political review in various places has also achieved great results.
Some fish that missed the net were directly under house arrest, or even demoted, and were punished.
Except for the Kuizhou Road, there were still prefectures and counties that were still invested in the New Song Dynasty, Dali, or were captured, there was no chaos in the other roads of the Song Dynasty.
At this time, Yue Peng, who was in charge of Chongqing, Du Hu, who was in charge of Dazhou, and others finally took action.
In Chongqing Prefecture, Zhao Da and Zhao Hu led the Feilong Army out of the city, and ten thousand troops spread toward Peiling, the city of Peizhou County, to the east.
Yue Peng personally led the Tiankui army to attack Nanchuan.
Miao Youli, Zheng Yihang, Pang Wenbo and others stayed in Chongqing.
Dazhou.
Xiao Yulin led the Tianjie army out of the city in the early morning and rushed to Kaijiang, Kaizhou County. Only in the afternoon, Liu Zijun also led the Tianxiong army out of the city and also rushed to Kaijiang.
The situation in Dazhou is even more embarrassing than in Chongqing. The Dali army occupied several states and was in an attempt to encircle Kuizhou Prefecture.
Xiao Yulin and Liu Zijun may not have the intention to go to Kuizhou Prefecture to help.
Compared with Dazhou, Kuizhou Prefecture is undoubtedly the top priority in the strategy of strengthening the walls and clearing the fields.
Correspondingly, after the Song Dynasty imperial guards made some movement, the Dali army quickly mobilized targetedly.
At this time, their troops were scattered in the prefectures and counties occupied by them. After understanding the intentions of the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty, they were forced to dispatch troops to resist.
The Dali Army in Jingzhou seemed to know the changes in the situation in the north, so suddenly led the army to leave Jingzhou and continue to march northward. The troops directly entered Suiyang, Zhenzhou.
Zhenzhou is different from the prefectures and counties of these minority tribes. It is a real city under the rule of the Song Dynasty.
Zhang Jue received the report from the scout and immediately led his army to set off, chasing the pace of the Dali Army in Guanzhou.
Roughly speaking, the territory of Kuizhou Road has gathered hundreds of thousands of troops in the New Song, Dali and Song dynasties.
The war seems to be about to ignite again.
This only took two days.
Xiao Yulin and Liu Zijun led the army and arrived outside Kaijiang City.
There is clear water on the east side of Kaijiang City, and there is a stack of rivers flowing through it, and there is no shortage of water sources. The turbid river water in the moat is surging.
On the city wall built with bricks and stones, the flags of the Dali Army spread and the army was full of armor.
Looking at the military flag, it is the Tiger Army among the White Horse Army.
The three armies of Longyou, Hu Ben and Iron Horse attacked the Song Dynasty from Dazhou. Although the Hu Ben Army was not as famous as the Longyou Army, it was also the second only to the Longyou Army among the seven white horse armies.
At this time, no one knew how many Tiger Army gathered in Kaijiang City.
However, there were less than 20,000 people in the army of Xiao Yulin and Liu Zijun.
The two led the army until they had to open hundreds of meters outside the west gate of Jiangcheng. The cavalry and infantry in the army accounted for about half of them, all wearing neatly-dressed ink armor.
The flag and the cloak sway in the wind.
Tianyong and Tianjie each formed their own formation.
Looking from afar, you can see that Liu Zijun and Xiao Yulin are both deep in the formation. There are big stars standing tall on the side.
A powerful general in front of the army immediately held a gun and glared at the top of the city.
At the top of the city, many Dali army generals were looking coldly outside the city.
Next to them were many gunboats.
The crossbowmen stood behind the wall, only the tip of the arrow was exposed, and the cold light flashed.
There are also crossbows, and the sharp arrows that look like javelins are even more breathtaking.
Although the crossbow cart lacks flexibility, it is a powerful tool for defending the city. Its range is not much different from that of the grenade launcher.
This confrontation lasted for about ten minutes.
There was a movement in Xiao Yulin's army first.
I saw that the flag soldiers on the female car shaking the red arrow in their hands.
Then, soldiers in the army hurried to the front of the formation with their waists bent.
There were about two hundred people, which were the grenade battalions.
After running to the front of the formation, the two hundred people were half squatting on the ground, and then one of them took off the wooden box on his back and placed it on the ground to open it.
There is a dark grenade launcher inside.
The soldiers formed two groups of people and cooperated with each other to combine the grenade canisters at a very fast speed.
Immediately afterwards, there was also movement in Liu Zijun's army.
The soldiers of the same grenade battalion ran to the front of the army to set up artillery.
Such magical weapons from the Song Dynasty were definitely a great deterrent to the Dali Army.
