Chapter 316 March
Shao Yun stood next to the bodies of Yan Lu and others, and did not speak for a long time. The breeze blew, and the air was filled with the smell of blood.
Jia He said: "The mountain road is rugged, so we can only send a few dozen people from Yan Lu. Unexpectedly, they were poisoned by Wei Yi's men. They can't go far. If we catch up quickly, we may catch up. If Wei Yi is allowed
If we escape back to Guozhou, it will be difficult to attack again."
Shao Yun raised his head and looked at the desolate mountains and forests. He said in a deep voice: "In order to transport food, there must be many Wei Yi's troops in the Badi Valley all the way to Guozhou. He wants to escape, and it will not be easy to catch up. That's all.
This matter was reported to the general manager, and the army behind was asked to set off immediately. We followed Wei Yi closely and cleared the way forward."
At this point, Shao Yun added another sentence: "Yan Lu is not very good at it, and his skills in the army are among the best. He laid an ambush in advance, but Wei Yi easily escaped. We cannot underestimate this Wei Yi!"
Feng Daodao: "Wei Yi has been known for his bravery since he was a child in his hometown. He must be very skilled."
Shao Yun nodded: "Leave someone here to clean up the bodies of Yan Lu and others. Wait for the army to arrive and then think of a solution."
Jia He said: "The rules of the Wangzhen Fu Army are that all soldiers who died on the battlefield will be cremated on the spot, and their bones will be collected properly. They will then be transported back to their hometown for burial. Each county has a specially arranged cemetery, and there are usually people there.
Guard the tomb.”
Shao Yun shook his head: "We are Li Jinglue's subordinates, why should we care about Wang Zhenfu's rules!"
Due to the influence of Buddhism, the proportion of folk cremation in the Song Dynasty was very high. Especially in the lower classes, cremation could reach more than 20%. It makes no sense to say that the Chinese tradition is to be buried in the ground. It can only be said that at a certain time, burial
It's a habit.
There are many examples of this. For example, some people say that Chinese people relocate to their hometowns and are unwilling to leave their hometowns. In fact, in the new era, a large number of rural people have left their hometowns, which has become a trend in many places. Some people say that Chinese people traditionally like bright red and green colors.
In fact, no matter in history or in reality, there are more people who like freshness and elegance. Some people say that Chinese people value boys over girls and pay attention to incense. There are many criticisms of literary and artistic works, such as the actor who will be laid off if I don’t get laid off.
There is a sketch called Superborn Guerrillas. In fact, in history, when it is more cost-effective to have daughters, people will rush to have daughters. This is even more true in reality, with the population suddenly falling off a cliff.
This kind of simple empirical summary of history and reality is the most unreliable. Some literati like to sensationalize and attract people's attention, and they like to make this kind of specious summary. The most famous one is that Chinese culture is a big sauce jar.
.
After hastily collecting the coffins, Shao Yun led nearly two thousand Song troops and killed them all the way north. Wei Yi's men had become frightened and dispersed along the way.
Wang Xiaolie and Li Yanxian walked on the ridge together. Looking at the desolate surroundings and the lingering frost in the shade, he couldn't help but sigh: "This road is not only difficult to walk, but it is also extremely cold on the ridge. It's hard to walk in this weather.
If you sweat in a hurry, you will easily get sick if the cool breeze blows."
Li Yanxian said: "Just walk a few miles further and go down to the Badi River Valley. Along the Badi River, you can go all the way to the foot of Guozhou City. I heard that Wei Yi was organizing
The people of Guozhou cut down trees to make rafts, and they want to use the Badi River to transport grain and grass."
Wang Xiaoxing said: "It's still a few days' journey from Huoshan Pass to Lushi, so what if we can transport food? After all, going south from Guozhou is not suitable for large troops to march. Our counterattack this time will cost a lot.
If we can successfully retake Guozhou, we need to make more noise."
Li Yanxian said: "If we retake Guozhou, we cannot let go of Shaanzhou. Shaanzhou strangles the throat from the west of Beijing to Guanzhong, so it is easy to defend but difficult to attack!"
Wang Xiaolie smiled: "It will be difficult for us to persist in this attack. After occupying Guozhou, we should expand our territory as much as possible to cause some trouble behind the Jin army that is attacking Qinfeng and Jingyuan Road. Shaanzhou only needs to send one force
The army can just occupy it, but if Wushu returns too quickly, the other armies should go west, and it is best to occupy Huazhou and Tongzhou. If they occupy these two states, the Jin army will have a headache."
Li Yanxian thought for a while, nodded and said: "What Zhen Fu said makes sense. Wu Shu led his troops to Luoyang. At this time, the Jingzhao Mansion is empty. We have 10,000 or 20,000 soldiers and horses, and we can really create quite a stir."
Wang Xiaolie looked at the mountains and said: "If we hadn't blocked Shaanzhou and attacked Jingzhao Mansion without the follow-up troops, the Jin Army in Guanzhong would have been sweating coldly. Alas, tens of thousands of troops would still be too much for a decisive battle with the Jin Army.
not enough."
After saying that, Wang Xiaolie turned around, looked at the rolling mountains, and said nothing for a while.
The Jin army's southern invasion was actually full of flaws. It's just that the Song army failed to live up to expectations and always squandered great opportunities, allowing the Jin army to fight more and more smoothly. Not to mention that when they broke into Kaifeng Mansion, they rushed in lightly, even this attack on Guanzhong was full of flaws.
With one hundred thousand troops, after a great victory, they wanted to completely capture the Five Shaanxi Routes of the Song Dynasty. They even wanted to attack Sichuan and Shu after the great victory in Guanzhong. To be honest, it was too ambitious.
But what can be done? Fighting against the Song Army, the Jin Army can make this flawed strategy finally succeed. Sometimes, Wang Xiaolie also feels helpless. The opportunity is right in front of him, but he just can't seize it.
After entering the Badi Valley, the terrain became much flatter. Walking three to five miles south, you can ride a horse. In the evening, we chose a flat place to camp. As soon as the camp was set up, Zhao Cheng rushed there.
When they arrived at the commander's tent, they saluted Wang Xiaolie and Li Yanxian.
Li Yanxian said: "You are following Wei Yi, what are you doing now?"
Zhao Cheng crossed his hands and said: "Returning to the briefing, General Shao has led his troops and horses to the outside of Guozhou City. Most of Wei Yi's troops and horses were sent out by him to look for food. There are not many troops and horses in Guozhou City. I rushed back.
At that time, our army fought two battles with Wei Yi. This Wei Yi was extremely brave, tall and powerful, and there was nothing we could do against him for a while. General Shao was commanding the siege, waiting for the army to manage."
Li Yanxian couldn't help but frown after hearing this: "This Wei Yi is just a bad boy, so hard to beat?"
Wang Xiaolie said: "It's not surprising that many evil young men are very fierce. Since we have fought two battles, what do you think of Wei Yi's troops? Is the formation orderly? Is the formation still strict? Is there a fighting spirit?"
Zhao Chengdao: "From the general's point of view, except for a few personal soldiers, Wei Yi's subordinates are nothing more than a mob. When they left the city, they just formed a rough formation. The flags were swaying here and there, and there were generals of all shapes and sizes. It should not be difficult to defeat them.
.It’s just that Wei Yi is too difficult to fight, and there’s nothing we can do for a while.”
Wang Xiaolie said to Li Yanxian: "It seems that the Jin army was brought together by Wei Yi's own ability. As long as Wei Yi is defeated, his army will naturally disperse. Such an army is not difficult.
beat."
Li Yanxian said: "Even so, facing such a fierce general, there is nothing we can do for a while."
Wang Xiaolie shook his head: "Humans are human after all, and no matter how powerful they are, they will not be the same as real gods. Since he is a human, there must be someone who can rival him. I have an army of tens of thousands, and I can still find a few brave generals.
come out."
Li Yanxian understands that Wang Xiaolie has been training in Dengzhou for the past two years. Among tens of thousands of people, there must be someone who is particularly brave on the battlefield. But fighting on the battlefield requires not only being brave and invincible, but also having a clear mind. Not everyone can be unified.
