Volume Four, Chapter One Hundred and Forty-Eighth Chapter 148: Biography of Jin Watch (11)
To the west of Loufan and between the mountains southeast of Yifang, the original river valley road has become a mud pond, but the rain still falls in the vast ocean, covering the fields.
Several Jurchen military camps were built according to the mountains, directly controlling this key army passage. The Jurchen military camps were covered with battle marks, with landfills, broken trenches, and broken bows and arrows. They were everywhere. Originally, under the strong attack of the Dragon Guards, some siege equipment was dragged in with great difficulty, but with the arrival of this continuous heavy rain, these crumbling Jurchen military camps finally supported. In the heavy rain, people could still be seen shaking, but the Jurchen Tartars were repairing the village defense in the cold rain.
The troops of the Dragon Guard also avoided high places and set up camp defenses, confronting the Jurchen Tartars with big eyes and small eyes. Seeing the Jurchen Tartars desperately repairing the camp defenses, they were helpless. The manpower was sometimes poor, and with such terrain and rain, no matter how strong and well-trained the Dragon Guards were, they could not launch an offensive!
Moreover, there are abandoned attack tools everywhere in the river valley roads at the foot of the mountain, including small stone cannons, high-mounted nest cars, and moving grass factories for avoiding arrows. Now they are all half buried in the mud. Even if the rain stops, they cannot be cleaned up for a while.
It seems that it is even more difficult to break through the Jurchen Tartars' numerous interceptions and reach Yifang City!
The army of the King of Yan forcibly advancing eastward to save the war in Hedong was already a complete battle. No one knew whether the Jurchen army advanced eastward, if the Jurchen Tatars transferred their offensive, could support it. Now we only hope that even if the Fuyan army and the Zhe family army were to be defeated, they would not be defeated uncontrollable, and they could still protect the main force and rely on the Yellow River to defend. We should limit the main force of the Jurchen Western Route Army to the battlefield in Hedong. We would wait for the King of Yan to chew it all the way through. Then we would go to the Jurchen Tartars to the decisive battle!
In the front of the military camp, above the village wall and outside the village, soldiers wearing straw raincoats and hats were patrolling and probing the team.
Outside the military camp, several deep and wide water ditches were dug out, and the turbid currents of mountain torrents roared and rolled among these ditches, making a whimpering sound.
In the military camp, the best cowhide camp was neatly set up. Whether it was the resting soldiers or the civilians who had not retreated, they could only see a leisurely person in the camp.
There was a row of mattresses in the village, and a large pot was built inside. The fire rose for twelve hours, and the cold was constantly boiling and drinking. It was distributed to the various tabernacles every other hour. The soldiers on duty and patrol and even came out in the heavy rain could use them at any time as long as they passed by. In the rain, there was more of the fragrance of the herb.
This military camp is strict and complete. It is far better than the rear camp of the Fuyan Army, which is convenient for transportation and supply to the Yellow River!
These military camps, which were set up in a hurry and still had a strict atmosphere in the heavy rain, are the reasons for this. In addition to the Long Guard Army being personally led by Yue Fei, they have always been the first in the military discipline of Xiao Yan, and are slightly better than the Shenwu Changsheng Army. Another important reason is that the King of Yan was also personally on the front line!
As the King of Yan, they can all face the enemy in person and work hard with everyone in the heavy rain. What else can you bear to endure the hardship, and what else is worth complaining about?
Xiao Yan was in front of such an enemy, but he was not without the desperate advice of the generals and staff, but he was suppressed by Xiao Yan unprecedentedly tough.
What Xiao Yan is most concerned about now is the war in the Fuyan army east of Yifang. Because there is a Jurchen Taurus army blocking it in the middle, even if he can still pass by the cover of the mountains, the news is difficult and somewhat delayed. If he does not come in person, he really cannot grasp the military information that will arrive in time. If the measures are not handled in time, Xiao Yan cannot afford this consequence.
As for his safety, Xiao Yan, who was in the difficulty mode of Yanyun’s battle in hell at the beginning of his time travel, could only say hehe. Now there are thousands of elite guards, and the Jurchen Tartars just can’t hide and fight a defensive battle. What’s the fuck to worry about?
During the past few days, Xiao Yan only lived in the tent. The ground in the tent was muddy, and the smell of cowhide was scented everywhere. In the heavy rain, the supply could only be transported a little hard. Xiao Yan also ate brown rice and dried meat like the soldiers, and the portion was reduced by half. Originally, Xiao Yan wanted to implement the rules when fighting in Yan. If the army was not enough, let the soldiers eat first. The above military generals included him, and he would eat whatever he had left. He would eat or not. This time, he did not succeed. As soon as the news that the King of Yan did not eat and the army was eating first, the camp was almost clamoring, and Xiao Yan could only barely take back his life.
Just by reducing clothes and meals, the soldiers felt that this was the case. The man who licked his blood on his head every day was not so easy to deceive. However, the King of Yan came to the front of the enemy in an unyielding manner, and shared his life with the military and Han. Standing on the wall, the King of Yan could look at the Jurchen Tartars on duty!
If you can do this, but for the military, no matter how hard the war is, no matter how fierce the enemy is, what will it be? In the past few days, no matter how heavy the rain is, no one will be lazy and even move forward. The rain is a little urgent, and before the call is called, the civilians staying in the camp clamored to strengthen the village defense and dredge the water ditches.
The army was short of food and had diarrhea while empty, and the soldiers guarding the guards and guarding the village did not dare to be slackened and careless. Although the possibility of the Jurchen Tatars attacking the camp was too small, the King of Yan was in front of the enemy. If there was a situation, everyone would not redeem it if they died!
In addition to these things that are done on the surface, there are also scenes that Xiao Yan can't see even when he inspects the camp.
There were more than 100 soldiers who followed Xiao Yan and guarded the police. In the past few days, their mounts were simply not taken care of by their own people. Many sergeants saved food to feed their mounts. The horses were covered with felts used by the sergeants, and they were still dry at any time.
These Yan King Zhijia soldiers were originally like Xiao Yan, and their food was also reduced by half. But whenever they had food, military generals came over secretly and delivered food. They were all saved from their weight. Yan King Zhijia soldiers subconsciously refused, and these military generals turned their faces over.
"………I have also been in the sable hat, and then there was also the police officer Bi Yan King's reprimand! At that time, you, a bird, were still in the place of the bird! No one could persuade the king of Yan when he was in front of him. If there was a police officer, the horse was not strong and the person was empty, what if. What should we do if we pulled the king of Yan? Let me eat it! If you don't want to eat it, I will force you to stuff it in?"
Xiao Yan didn't know until the beginning. These days, his stomach was in mid-air and often woke up hungry at night. However, the guards under his command often burped secretly on his back! If it weren't for the dry meat and rough rice, these guards would have been so bad that they would have been so shameless!
Did Xiao Yan really not know that his family is bound to this newborn group and insisted on taking risks ahead? He is not concerned about the battle situation in Hedong, but about this life-and-death battle that concerns the fate of the Song Dynasty!
The rain has been going on for more than two days, and Yue Fei’s premonition of unknown information has become heavier. Now I heard that Xiao Yan has just fallen asleep after being tired, and hesitated a little, not sure if it is better to report it or stop and come again.
Xiao Yan's voice suddenly sounded in the tent: "But Pengju is here?"
Guo Rong was stunned, looked at Yue Fei with a little angrily, turned around and returned to the tent. After a moment of pause, Xiao Yan opened the tent and walked out strode.
Xiao Yan still looked slightly thin, but his eyes were very dark, obviously he had not had a good rest in the past few days. He was in the front enemy army, so he could not wear a light robe and was wearing armor. Even if he took a nap, he would still lie on his armor.
Guo Rong also followed her out and asked the soldiers on duty to find some clean water to wash Xiao Yan, and then went to bring a bowl of hot drink from under the mattress next to the village. Xiao Yan waved his hand and told Guo Rong not to take care of these things, and greeted Yue Fei: "Pengju, come in!"
Regardless of Guo Rong's slightly resentful gaze, Yue Fei walked into the tent calmly. Xiao Yan was already standing beside the wooden picture and pointed to the direction of the Lilan Army.
"Pengju, Zong Han's main force was nailed to Yifang in front of him. Although the troops were very strong, it was not so easy to shake the Fuyan army. I am only worried about Wanyan Loushi's troops here! Taking advantage of the heavy rain, the Shenwu Changsheng Army could not move. Loushi could completely mobilize troops and quickly join the offensive against the Fuyan army!"
This is what Yue Fei was worried about in the past two days. Wanyan Loushi's troops were stationed in the Kelan Army, which was a surprise soldier. However, with the offensive restraint of the Shenwu Changsheng Army, the Ze family army in the Hanwai was not a decoration, and they also paid attention to the movements of the Loushi's troops. However, after a heavy rain, these restraints no longer exist at this moment. As long as the Loushi's troops are strong, they can complete the mobilization during the heavy rain.
Lou Shisu is a famous Jurchen general, and his troops are also elite in the Jurchen army. No one dares to think about the safety of the battle. Wanyan Lou Shi's troops cannot be stationed in the village, trapped in the judgment of this heavy rain!
But when Wanyan Loushi's troops join the war against the Fuyan army, where will the first strike be pointed?
Join Yifang front?
This mediocre general will not do it either.
Strike the Long Snake Formation of the Fuyan Army along the mountain road?
With the Hehe County Government as a supporter, the Fuyan Army can still hold its foot firmly.
Xiao Yan and Yue Fei's eyes both fell on Hehejin Ferry.
If you lead your own army, the first attack will definitely fall here, completely cutting off the retreat of the Fuyan army and shaking the morale of the army. Then the 40,000 Fuyan army among the mountains can be allowed to be cleaned up by the Jurchens!
Xiao Yan and Yue Fei looked at each other, and suddenly Xiao Yan became anxious: "What kind of food does this splatter Han Wu make? Let him keep a close eye on Lou Shi's movements. There is no news yet to be reported! Guan'er is too arrogant, can he become lazy?"
Yue Fei said nothing, Han Shizhong's military situation was reported every day. However, the heavy rain suddenly fell, and the military situation had been cut off for three days! Although there were factors such as road barriers, Xiao Yan could not help but be anxious!
Suddenly, a low noise came from outside the tent. Guo Rong tightened her face and lifted her tent.
"Han Shizhong's cavalry is coming! Lou Shi's troops moved west three days ago while the rain was taking advantage of the rain!"
The ominous premonition finally became reality, but Xiao Yan's previous anxious and tired look completely disappeared, and he just waved his hand with a cold face: "Tell him to come in!"
Guo Rong left, and Xiao Yan looked at Yue Fei, who also looked like frosty, "Pengju, send a cavalry twice as much as possible. Regardless of whether Liu Guangshiwai or not, he would like me, the King of Yan, tell him to go west quickly and retreat to the edge of the Yellow River!"
Xiao Yan paused for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "If it's too late, no matter what general you find the Fuyan army, tell them to rush out northwest, the Jurchen Tatars there will be a little more empty, and there are three states in the Zhe family and Hewai to support them. Tell them that I will save them!"
Yue Fei focused his attention, and without saying anything, he walked out with big strides.
Xiao Yan was the only one left in the tent for a moment, and he suddenly closed his eyes.
Lou Shi had already acted three days ago, and Han Shizhong and his family were powerless for the time being. I hope Hehejindu can be kept, and I hope the Zhe family army can do their best to restrain Lou Shi's sudden interception offensive. I hope Liu Guangshi can stabilize the morale of the army. I hope that even if the Fuyan army is defeated, he can still retreat to the Yellow River and limit the Jurchen Tatars to the Hedong area!
But what if the worst situation occurs?
Xiao Yan opened his eyes again.
There is always a man who comes to clean up all this!
