Lord of the House
Vol 10 Chapter 92: fight
The Guancheng of Yuling Pass is only two or three miles deep. It is embedded in the mouth of Fuyu Mountain and Baiji Mountain. There are steep cliffs on both sides. Over the years, it has become an insurmountable gorge that the Zhejiang and Fujian troops cannot overcome - the ravine outside Guancheng is like a barrier.
Since mid-August, the garrison of Yuling Pass has suddenly increased from 3,000 to more than 50,000. Xie Chaozhong set up the camp for recruiting troops in western Zhejiang.
With the increase of the garrison, various merchants also gathered, forming a messy gathering place on the north **** of Guancheng Camp, making Yuling suddenly prosperous.
There are all kinds of food shops with different flavors, greeting generals, prostitutes for the generals to relax and entertain, and pawnshops to relieve the generals' urgent needs. In the daytime, you can faintly hear silk and bamboo from the rough prostitutes. female voice singing...
Deng Yu passed by on horseback. Seeing this situation, his heart was filled with grief. Not only did the generals of the imperial army brought by Xie Chaozhong play recklessly, but also the generals of the former Huinan Army couldn't hold their own. , Deng Yu was caught leaving the barracks without permission, and he punished them severely, but comparing the two, he also provoked the following generals to complain that he was too harsh.
If you can't go back to Huizhou, it's not in western Zhejiang, the two armies are mixed together, at least the clear ones will become turbid! Who called him just a lieutenant?
Most of these merchants had something to do with the "two kings and one surplus", and there were also many "tributes" on Xie Chaozhong's side, and Deng Yu had no way to expel them from Huizhou.
The horses entered Guancheng and Xie Chaozhong's carriage.
The special envoy sent to Fuyang to watch the battle has returned, Deng Yu came over, and Xie Chaozhong started a military meeting. First, the special envoy should give a detailed introduction to the fierce battle of the Hanghu Army outside Tonglu.
"Under the mountain, there are piles of corpses. Hundreds of warships crashed and burned in the Qianjiang River. The Hanghu Army suffered heavy casualties, but the rebels also suffered many casualties..."
"Deputy Ambassador Deng," Xie Chaozhong looked at Deng Yu with a cold face, and said, "In such a situation, should Deputy Ambassador Deng wait for the Hanghu Army to take down Tonglu before attacking Chun'an with him?"
The Hanghu Army conquered Tonglu, and then marched westward along the Jiangxi to be Chun'an, the west of Zhejiang recruited troops to go out of Yuling Pass, to the east they attacked Chun'an, and to the west they attacked Wuyuan...
Deng Yu also had an eye in Fuyang, knowing that the person Xie Chaozhong sent did not exaggerate too much, and Meng Yishan's private letter to him repeatedly urged him to send troops here - Tonglu fought hard, Yulingguan sent troops, even if they couldn't be dispersed Tonglu's defenders can also attack the morale of Tonglu defenders.
Furthermore, if Yuling Pass remains unmoved, and the She family is called to transfer troops from Chun'an and Wuyuan to the east to strengthen Tonglu, the offensive of the Hanghu Army will be completely contained and withdrawn without success-now Hanghu The army has already filled in with three or four thousand lives, and if they withdraw without any military exploits, they will not be able to explain it to the top and the bottom.
However, Lin Fu's handwritten letter has long been sent. Huaidong not only asked Lin Xuwen to openly preside over the battle plan of Deng Yu's defense in Huizhou and Xie Chaozhong's leading troops into western Zhejiang in the courtroom, but Lin Fu's private letter was to hope that Deng Yu was in charge of Deng Yu's battle plan. The more he can insist on this point - Yue Lengqiu's meaning is also to ask Deng Yu to stay behind, in order to be safe.
Deng Yu can ignore what Lin Fu and Huaidong think, but Yue Lengqiu has the grace of knowing and being promoted to him. He can't ignore Yue Lengqiu's opinion, but the situation in front of him can't completely control him.
Deng Yu had learned Xie Chaozhong's stubborn temper these days. He figured in his heart: Yue Lengqiu left the center and went to Jiangzhou to supervise the war. Once he and Xie Chaozhong were torn apart, no one above the court would help him. Speaking of which, he still couldn't fight against Xie Chaozhong, especially after Xie Chaozhong led 40,000 imperial battalions into Huizhou.
Even if Emperor Yongxing ordered Xie Chaozhong to seize his military power, Deng Yu had no room for resistance.
"I'm not feeling well, and I have to rest for a few days," Deng Yu said. "Why don't the recruiter lead the team first, and I'll stay at Yuling Pass and Huizhou for the recruiter, waiting for the recruiter to triumph..."
"General Deng has been sick for several days, but I have never seen General Deng look for a husband." Yu Bijiang said lukewarmly.
With a dark face, Xie Chaozhong held down the saber at his waist and stared at Deng Yu: "Can the deputy envoy Deng ask the envoy to invite the emperor's decree again?"
Xie Chaozhong bravely came to Huizhou to lead the troops, but he still had some details in his heart about how many catties and taels of the imperial army. In fact, the reason why he came to lead troops in Huinan was because he knew that the She family's troops in western Zhejiang were insufficient, and secondly, he knew that Deng Yu's 20,000 elite soldiers could be driven after Huinan.
As far as the current situation is concerned, the She family in Chun'an and Wuyuan have at most 20,000 elite soldiers. Deng Yu has fought against the Zhejiang and Fujian troops for several years in southern Huizhou without losing the slightest. With Deng Yu's 20,000 elite soldiers there, Xie Chaozhong The confidence is enough.
It was precisely because he asked Deng Yu to lead the army that Xie Chaozhong was a little patient with him, otherwise he would have asked for an imperial decree to force Deng Yu to bow his head, but at this point, Xie Chaozhong's patience was getting lower and lower.
I really want Meng Yishan to capture Tonglu first, and then there is no movement here. It is difficult for Yu Xinyuan, Wang Xueshan, Wang Tian and others to raise their heads in front of Chen Xiyan. Huinan has strengthened 40,000 troops and horses, but the results are not as good as Hanghu. Army, doesn't it prove that Chen Xiyan's opposition to his leadership at the beginning is correct, the 40,000 imperial battalion army came over, and it didn't play any role at all!
"The emperor is always staring at the west of Zhejiang. Even if General Deng is unwell, he should try his best to share the worries for the emperor and the court!" Liu Zhi persuaded that his supervisor was here and he didn't want to do anything about it. Offended, I don't want the emperor to see the delay here and Longyan furious.
Deng Yu frowned and thought about it for a long time before he let out a long sigh and said, "Deng Yu is willing to listen to the order of the envoy, and will lead his troops out of the city tomorrow!" Although it is not very reassuring to leave the back road to Xie Chaozhong, but As long as Meng Yishan didn't let Dong Yuan's leak in Fuyang, Deng Yu was not worried that the soldiers and horses of the She family in western Zhejiang would be able to eat him even the meat and bones.
"That's good," Xie Chaozhong said when he saw Deng Yu bowing his head, and said, "Deputy Deng will lead the headquarters tomorrow, and Luo Wenhu will lead the team after that. You two will go out of Yuling Pass and go straight to Huangtian to recruit me in western Zhejiang. Investigate the army to remove the obstacles to the south of the Daqing River and enter the west of Zhejiang..."
Exit Yuling Pass, go south along the Daqingxi River Valley, you can jump directly to the edge of Qianjiang River, along the north bank of Qianjiang River, go to Chun'an in the east, go to Wuyuan in the west, cross the Qianjiang River, and enter Quzhou and Shanghang in the south. around.
Huangtian is located in the middle reaches of Daqingxi River. It is only a forty-mile mountain road from Yuling Pass. When She Feixiong led his troops to attack Yuling Pass, he built a fort there. This is also the outer defense of western Zhejiang against Huizhou. Base, if you want to enter western Zhejiang, you must first win Huangtian.
Deng Yu has no objection to the first battle of Huangtian, and now there is no one in the court. To keep his position, he must rely on the military exploits condensed by blood and fire, but the terrain of Huangtian Village is relatively narrow. Thousands of elite soldiers passed by, and there were too many soldiers and horses, and there was no place to deploy them. Xie Chaozhong asked Luo Wenhu to lead another 10,000 people to accompany him, so he was not afraid of being crowded?
Deng Yu knew Xie Chaozhong's thoughts and used the Huinan Army to fight to the death. Luo Wenhu was restrained by him, and after thinking about it, he wanted to attribute all the power of control to himself.
Deng Yu scolded inwardly, but he didn't want to argue with Xie Chaozhong, he just said: "The troops and horses have set up camp, the action is very big, please recruit the envoy to strictly block the news, and don't let the merchants approach, so as not to leak the news and make the enemy of Huangtian. Be prepared..."
"I naturally know this!" Xie Chaozhong said impatiently.
Deng Yu sighed secretly. When Xie Chaozhong came to Huizhou, he was in control of the power. Except for the large camp with 20,000 elite soldiers outside the northeast **** of Guancheng, he could not get involved in the affairs of Yuling Pass and Huizhou. If you want to leak the news and tell the Zhejiang and Fujian rebels to make preparations in Huangtian, it may not be a disaster if they can't eat Huangtian. The big deal is to withdraw their troops.
Deng Yu was indecisive and made various calculations. He said goodbye and returned to the camp to prepare. Even though he had been prepared before, it was still a bit hasty to send troops tomorrow.
********************
The troops and horses set up camp, and the movement was very large. Xie Chaozhong said that it was to strengthen the defense, but the secret post sent by the She family could still calmly climb the ridges on both sides and spread the news back to Huangtian.
The autumn color is thick, the maple leaves are dyed red under the setting sun, Shewenzhuang is wearing a black robe, like an ordinary old man, and said to Zheng Mingjing: "Although I have two hands to prepare for the battle of Western Zhejiang, I pin my hopes on Huangtian, Huangtian Yi. We must really fight the battle, but we must also preserve our strength. Whether we can regain what we lost in the first battle of Huangtian depends on whether we can bring Huizhou soldiers and horses in to close the door and fight the dogs!”
"Xie Chaozhong did not let Deng Yu stay behind, and Deng Yu seized Huangtian all the way. Xie Chaozhong must urge him to go further along the Daqingxi River. Those of us who have been freed from the 'scattering rogues' are naturally the appetizers of the imperial army. ——If the Imperial Army does not have head-level skills, it would be impossible to say!" Zheng Mingjing said with a relaxed smile.
Zheng Mingjing was so relaxed, Tian Chang couldn't say anything.
Don't let Deng Yu and Xie Chaozhong feel that the west of Zhejiang is a trap, Huangtian can't give up easily, he must fight bloody, even at the expense of two or three thousand lives, in the end only some "remnants" escape into the deep mountains to be able to do it. Luring Deng Yu's Huizhou elites in to close the door and beat the dogs -- although there are other arrangements for the mission of closing the door, the greatest hope is still pinned on the remnants of Huangtian and the thousands of elites who were previously hidden in the mountains, and can successfully retake Huang Tianzhai, and then rely on Huangtianzhai to resolutely seal Deng Yu's back road, will be under the attack of Deng Yuhui's southern army and Xie Chaozhong's imperial army.
How many soldiers and horses can survive in Huangtian garrison at most, and even whether Zheng Mingjing himself can survive, is unknown.
The affairs of Shewenzhuang in western Zhejiang still cannot be leaked, so as not to disturb Deng Yu, an old snake who does not get into the trap. But as long as Deng Yu got in and Huangtian could successfully close the door, no matter how elite the Huinan army was, they would be at an absolute disadvantage.
This day is September 25th, the third day after the outbreak of the Fujian war, the third day after the Tonglu war broke out, Yue Lengqiu has not made any major moves in Jiangzhou, and Huaidong's troops in Shengzhou have also attacked Dongyang County. No big move yet.
The west of Zhejiang and the east of Fujian are separated by thousands of mountains and rivers. Shewenzhuang does not know whether the retreat of the wars in the east of Fujian has gone according to the plan. It was destiny, Shewenzhuang left Huangtian with Tian Chang that night, and went back to Wuyuan for the next deployment.
****************
On September 26, the weather was slightly cold, and the Huinan army crossed Yuling Pass and headed south to Huangtian Walled City.
Deng Yu was of a cautious nature. The army marched on the valley road, and the scouts and horses spread out to the ridges of the two wings. He was afraid that there would be soldiers hiding in the mountains on the side of the valley road. To send scouts, you can only search for a range of ten to twenty depths on the two wings, and even deeper into the valleys and valleys, you can search them out in a short period of time.
The 20,000-strong army spread out with a long snake, and I don’t know how far it is; the former army joined the Zhejiang and Fujian outposts on the periphery of Huangtian, and the rear army has not yet left Yuling Pass – cruelly wanting to attack Deng Yu’s troops In the front line, he went to fight with the Zhejiang and Fujian troops to lose both. Xie Chaozhong wanted to fight in front of the Hanghu army and form a breakthrough in the west of Zhejiang, so he did not let Deng Yu leave one soldier and one soldier in Yuling Pass, and rushed at once. out.
Fortunately, when She Feixiong attacked Yuling Pass, he spent a lot of effort to build a mountain road from Huangtian to Yuling Pass, so that the mountain road can accommodate four horses.
Huangtian Village is the main village of the Zhejiang-Fujian Army in the western part of Zhejiang. There are also many outposts between Huangtian Village and Yuling Pass. The troops are few and elite, and they are all easy to defend and difficult to attack.
In order to prevent the Zhejiang and Fujian troops from going out to fight, Deng Yu also sent his confidant generals to lead the most elite 2,000 soldiers and horses to the outpost.
Deng Yu originally wanted to wait for the outpost to lay down Huangtian Village, and then the main force of his troops would leave Guancheng and go south into the hinterland of western Zhejiang. lead soldier.
Yue Lengqiu was not in Jiangning. The ministers of the political affairs hall and the officials above the court, including Lin Xuwen and Huang Jinnian, talked about the use of troops, but the specific armament and military management were not their strengths, and they were even lacking. Very, no one can see the lack of Xie Chaozhongcheng in this regard.
The clearing of the outpost was not difficult. After the Huangtian Village counterattacked the outpost of the Anhui Southern Army, seeing that the Anhui Southern Army was approaching aggressively, the Zhejiang-Fujian Army voluntarily gave up the outlying outposts and concentrated their forces in Huangtian Village. Death fight resistance.
This battle is very important, and Deng Yu did not dare to be careless, and rushed to the front to supervise the battle, rushing a member of the Zhejiang-Fujian army in silver armor to lead his troops out of the village to fight.
On the small and wide **** in front of the village, Yinjiaxiao commanded his horse to use the lance, stabbed left and right, and smashed a row of shield soldiers into four parts. Then dozens of elite horsemen rushed up and trampled Huinan. The army outpost was unrecognizable.
Hundreds of defenders and soldiers were waiting for the opportunity to pounce under the wall.
Although the 2,000 troops at the outpost were also lined up in three echelons, the first echelon looked ugly, but the second and third echelons were still in order. The commander of the outpost urged Lie to come over with a somewhat ugly face to welcome Deng Yu, along with more than a hundred guards. , together with the clan Deng Yu retreated to a hillside to watch the battle.
"Who is this general? It's actually fierce!" Deng Yu looked at the silver-armored general who was picking up two soldiers holding large shields to death, and asked the outpost commander in surprise. He has been in the south of Huizhou for many years, and he is very familiar with Tian Chang, the leader of the She family in western Zhejiang. Tian Chang is not known for his martial arts.
"The imperial court sent the imperial army to replenish Huizhou, and the She family drew troops from Jiangxi. This person should be a military commander transferred from Jiangxi by the She family!" said Cui Lie, "Huangtian is the gateway to western Zhejiang, and there are one or two hard-handed generals there. , very normal..."
Deng Yu nodded.
"I heard that the news of Xie Chaozhong's important soldiers spread to Xuzhou, and the Duke of Pengcheng called him a **** stick. It seems true!" Deng Yu's staff, Xing Changhe, said in a low voice.
Xie Chaozhong did not come to Huizhou, and there were more than 20,000 soldiers and horses under Tian Chang's army in western Zhejiang.
Xie Chaozhong seemed to lead 40,000 imperial battalions to strengthen Huinan's use of troops in western Zhejiang, but he also made the She family recruit 10,000 elites from western Zhejiang to supplement western Zhejiang. One side is adding 40,000 people, and the other is adding 10,000 people. It seems that Huizhou is still capable, but for Deng Yu and the future under his command, he would rather not have 40,000 people in the imperial army, and do not want to fight for 10,000 elites.
It's a pity that the meat eaters above the temple are very precise in addition and subtraction of one, two, three and four, and they don't seem to be confused in general.
It's good to have war merits to contend for, but after all the hard work of his own life, the war merits were taken away by Xie Chaozhong, who would be reconciled.
Xie Chaozhong led the imperial army to fill Huizhou, which was simply a burden. Now Xie Chaozhong is forcing the Huinan army to fight against the elites of the luxury family.
"What's the use of talking about this all day long!" Deng Yu shouted in a low voice, not letting his generals complain. Since the facts cannot be changed, complaining can only weaken his will. He pointed at the enemy who was rampaging in front of the slope. General, asked Lie, "I don't have a brave general to match with my Huinan Army?"
It is true that there are no brave generals in the Anhui South Army, but there are really few brave generals of this series. Deng Yu personally came to supervise the battle, the outpost was trampled by the enemy like this, and the armored soldiers were scattered around the periphery.
"I'm coming!" Cui Lie responded to Deng Yu with a low roar, and asked around, "Bring me my knife!" Cui Lie was not tall, he wore a black iron helmet, and he lowered Deng Yu's head by half, but he slashed his horse with a big sword. His hands, blood and energy all over his body swelled, he shouted loudly, and there was a murderous aura, calling the left and right generals to follow the flesh and blood, bringing their own guards and brave soldiers, and dashed to the front battlefield.
The Huinan Army was also an elite in a long-term battle. The main general Yoyo shouted and went into battle. The armored soldiers were also full of blood and energy. .
"Who's coming?" Tzulie held his warhorse, the hilt of the sword under his arm, pointed the blade diagonally, and watched the silver-armored enemy meet face to face, but he still didn't ask his name.
"Go to Yanluo Temple to find out!" Zheng Mingjing, as the captain of Shewenzhuang's personal guard, rarely had the opportunity to lead troops on expeditions, so his reputation was not obvious, and not many people recognized his appearance, but the name "Zheng Mingjing" had to be spread out. , No matter how stupid Deng Yu is, he can think of the possibility that Shewenzhuang will be in charge of himself, and even change his armor with others.
Zheng Mingjing took advantage of the sprinting horses to make Ma Leng sprint towards Lie. Qi Lie slashed the saber on the head of the horse spear, and nearly cut the head of the spear, only to feel numbness in his arm and severe pain in the tiger's mouth.
When the two armies fought, there were very few opportunities for the master to fight, and if he missed a single blow, a large group of soldiers and horses smashed together, pushing Lie and Zheng Mingjing away. The cavalry and cavalry scrambled, shouting loudly, and each other invested more and more troops.
Hundreds of cavalry from the Zhejiang and Fujian troops out of the village participated in all, and the Huinan army also invested in two echelons to fight together.
Zheng Mingjing discounted two long lances, and felt exhausted. He rode his horse back and signaled to call for gold on the wall of the village to withdraw his troops. The arrows were as dense as rain, forcing the pursuers to retreat.
The enemy will be in the city, and he will not be in a hurry. Then he will form a shield array to protect the bowmen and press forward, and rush the baggage behind to bring them up~www.wuxiaspot.com~ will imitate the shield cart made by Huaidong , the sidecar goes forward...
When Du Lie rushed back on his horse, Deng Yu didn't see his clothes soaked in blood, he just said, "Organize more people to dig more trenches, don't be in a hurry to attack the fortress tomorrow!"
"Most of the recruiters will come to urge you," urged Lie.
"It's his business that he's anxious, we fight at our pace, and we can't mess up a single step!" Deng Yu said.
Don’t look at the 60,000 troops in Huizhou, but the terrain in western Zhejiang is complex and there is not much open terrain. The 20,000 elite soldiers of the southern Huizhou army went south to fight the enemy. Busy, but also unable to exert energy - the She family currently has the ability to gather 20,000 elites to meet them in the lower valley of Daqingxi, Deng Yu can't help but think about the 20,000 children.
Deng Yu didn't want to turn his back on Xie Chaozhong, so he chose to fight, but between the destruction of the 20,000 elite soldiers he had saved over the years and completely offending Xie Chaozhong, Deng Yu would of course choose the latter without hesitation.
Resolutely, Xie Chaozhong couldn't sit still and sent someone to question him when he didn't see Deng Yu's aggressive attack on Huangtian Village in the afternoon.
Deng Yu only said that Xie Chaozhong should send someone who is knowledgeable about military affairs to supervise the battle. If he could see any slack on his side, he would not resent the military law—Xie Chaozhong would send Yu Bijiang to supervise the battle that night.
Although Yu Bijiang's reputation is not very good, but after working as the prefect of Haozhou for a year and a half, Deng Yu also knew that Xie Chaozhong was able to lead the army. The biggest supporter behind him was Yu Bijiang's father and the censor of Zuodu besides the emperor. Yu Xinyuan.
Deng Yu still knew about Yu Bijiang's fear of death. When he came over, he only talked about the possible consequences of recklessly attacking the fortress. Yu Bijiang no longer hurriedly urged Deng Yu to forcefully attack the fortress, and said: " It's okay to act cautiously, but General Deng should not disappoint the emperor too much..."
