Chapter 319 Brother, ascend the throne

More than half a month after the Liangshan Army and the Jin Army fought, the two sides have been fighting a tug-of-war. No one can do anything about the other, and neither has gained a clear advantage.

On this day, the Jin army erected dozens of artillery mounts in front of the Liangshan Army's position and kept throwing rocks at the Liangshan Army's position.

Cao Zheng and Wu Song also commanded the Liangshan army to throw stones to fight back, and used divine arm bows to shoot fiercely at the charging Jin soldiers.

Arrows rained down from both sides in front of the formation, and stone cannons met with each other.

Because the Liangshan Army had taken advantage of the darkness to deploy a large number of "antlers" with tree branches in front of the formation, and fired with strong bows and crossbows, the Jin Army's charge was very difficult.

After three consecutive battles, the Jin army eliminated the "antlers" with heavy casualties and then stopped attacking.

When the Jin army withdrew from the battle, Liu Huiniang ordered Lin Chong and Tang Bin to lead their troops to cover the attack, creating a climax that ended the battle.

War is not only a contest of military strength, but also a contest of logistical supplies and national strength.

Behind the Liangshan Army are the three states of Yandi Qizhou, Hebei, and Pingluanying. If a soldier of the Liangshan Army dies, he can replenish two, three, or five. The food and supplies are inexhaustible, and, The Liangshan Army's fight against the Jin Army will undoubtedly receive strong support from the Liao people in the Yanyun area. Among other things, Jiang Hongfei recruited 100,000 garrison troops to supplement the sacrificed Liangshan Army officers and soldiers, of which only 30,000 were from Hebei and Shandong. Those who were recruited, and the rest were all former Liao people from Yanyun District and Pingluanying Prefecture.

Let’s talk about the Jin Army.

The food, grass and baggage of the Jin army were all snatched in Yundi, and even the civilians were forcibly recruited in Yundi.

Therefore, the people of Yundi hate the Jin people to the core. Very few people of Yundi are willing to help the Jin Army, let alone join the Jin Army.

Not only that, the people of Yundi also organized themselves spontaneously to harass and even attack small groups of Jin army.

Some people in Yundi would rather burn the food than let the Jin people take it away.

A large number of people from Yundi hid in the mountains with their horses, livestock and food.

In short, it is becoming more and more difficult for the Jin people to replenish food and supplies, and because there are not many personnel to supplement, the Jin army is getting smaller and smaller as they fight.

Moreover, whenever there is any disturbance among the Jin people, the people in Yundi will risk their lives by crossing the Taihang Mountains to notify the Liangshan Army.

Wanyan Aguda, who noticed this situation, became more and more anxious. He knew that this battle could not be dragged on any longer, otherwise they would definitely lose.

As a result, the Jin Army took turns launching a large-scale group attack on the Liangshan Army's position with tens of thousands of troops.

The Jin army first attacked the left wing of the Liangshan Army's position, which was Wulong Village. They used the cave as a cover to move to the city, set up ladders and swarmed to climb the city.

"Dongzi" is also called "cave house". It is made of wood as a vault support, covered with cowhide, and looks like a cave or room. It has many defensive restrictions and can defend against bows and arrows and ordinary cannon stones.

The officers and soldiers of the Liangshan Army used bumping poles to push down the ladders, and threw huge rocks from the city to destroy the caves.

The Jin army pushed in another giant battle tower.

The battle building is tied with cowhide outside and has many defensive restrictions. There is a climbing frame inside, and its height is almost the same as the city head of Liangshan Army. The Jin army pushed the battle tower against the city wall and jumped directly from the top of the battle tower to the top of the Liangshan Army's city wall.

Yan Xiaoguang, who was sitting in the Oolong position, still used the old method of the Liangshan Army to deal with it, that is, he sent Wang Tianba to lead the swordsmen and gunners to open the door and leave the city, kill the Jin army with spears and swords, and burn down the battle towers.

Wanyan Xie also saw that the left wing attack was difficult to succeed, so he ordered Wanyan Yinshu to lead 20,000 Zhengjia gold soldiers to attack both sides of the Liangshan Army's position.

The soldiers of the Jin Army wore two layers of armor and braved arrows and stones to climb the city regardless of life or death.

Liu Guang ran back and forth on the city, covering the left and right, and the governor fought to the death.

Cao Zheng was so anxious that he brought in the crossbows and lined them up in a row to clear out these very slow-moving Jin troops.

In short, Liangshan Army and Jin Army racked their brains and brains to defeat each other. It can be said that they have exhausted all their mechanisms.

Night fell and the Jin army stopped attacking.

Wanyan Sali shouted to his horse and stared at the corpses of the Jin Army scattered in front of the Liangshan Army and the city walls that were damaged by cannons and stones. He seemed to have discovered the defensive weakness of the Liangshan Army's position and shouted excitedly: "I got it." !”

The next day, the Jin army, commanded by Wanyan Salihe, concentrated its forces to attack the "thousand enemy fortress" of the Liangshan army.

This fort is centered on a watchtower, guarding the northwest corner of the Liangshan Army's position. The guard is Xie Zhen.

The Jin army approached the enemy tower. The Liangshan army's crossbows are very powerful, and their arrows are like locusts. The Jin army was constantly hit by arrows and fell down, and the corpses were piled up layer after layer. However, the Jin army continued to attack, stepping on the corpses and charging.

The Liangshan Army's enemy towers were indeed not very strong. When the battle reached noon, the enemy tower seemed overwhelmed and began to tilt. Xie Zhen hurriedly ordered the soldiers to tie long ropes with silk and forcefully pull the enemy tower upright.

The Jin army attacked again with fire. The pillars of the building were hit by rockets and started to catch fire. Wu Song, who came for reinforcements, cleverly doused the fire with water and wine. Soon, Xie Zhen and He Bao were all seriously injured and were carried down the enemy tower. Wu Song took over Xie Zhen's position.

In order to suppress the shooting power of the Liangshan Army's crossbows, the Jin Army arranged two hundred sharp archers in Dongling to shoot at the Liangshan Army.

The Liangshan Army was tit for tat. In order to deal with the sharp archers of the Jin Army in Dongling, Tang Bin and Hua Rong personally led five hundred sharp archers from Ma Sanjun and Ma Wujun to abandon their horses and engage in a fierce exchange with the Jin Army in Dongling.

At dusk, Liu Huiniang seized the opportunity when the Jin army retreated from the battle, and took advantage of the chaos when the Jin army retreated. She sent Shi Jin, Yang Zhi, Luan Tingyu, Suo Chao, Sun Li, Guan Sheng, Qin Ming and other generals to take charge of the purple army. Flags and white flags launched an attack on the exhausted Jin army from both sides.

At night, the Liangshan Army launched another night attack with Lin Chong, Xu Ning, and Gu Jian.

It was night. The Jin army was too tired from fighting during the day and was not prepared. As a result, fire broke out on all sides and the drums were beating, which frightened the Jin army.

A group of Liangshan Army soldiers broke into the Jin Army's camp and started a hand-to-hand fight with the disheartened Jin Army.

When Liu Huiniang saw that Lin Chong and the others had succeeded in their night attack, she immediately sent reinforcements to reinforce them.

In this battle, the Liangshan Army not only captured the Jin Army's offensive position, but also captured many banners, mourning guns, pommel horses, and flags, forcing the Jin Army back several miles.

Being beaten like this by the Liangshan Army, the Jin Army suffered heavy casualties, and there was not much military rations left. On the other hand, the Liangshan Army fought more and more.

The attentive generals of the Jin army also discovered that Semu people, also known as Liao people, began to appear in the Liangshan army.

The Jin people were not fools. How could they not understand that the Liangshan Army had been recognized by the Liao people, forming a closed loop of making up for losses immediately. They could no longer defeat the Liangshan Army.

In addition, the Jin Army's offensive deployment was also disrupted by the Liangshan Army, and its forward offensive position was lost, making it unable to attack the Liangshan Army again.

On this day, people from Youyundi walked through the position in the dark and reported to Liangshan Army that the Jin Army began to retreat.

Zhu Wu sent people to conduct reconnaissance and determined that although the Jin army had retreated several miles, there was still no sign of retreat. They should have been hurt by the beating and were preparing to rest or wait for reinforcements.

Based on this new trend of the Jin Army, Liu Huiniang judged that the Jin Army was at the end of its war effort and wanted to take the initiative to completely defeat the Jin Army.

But Zhu Wu disagreed - Zhu Wu felt that as long as the Liangshan Army did not attack, the Liangshan Army would be undefeated; if they attacked, the Jin Army might turn defeat into victory.

Regarding this matter, both Liu Huiniang's and Zhu Wu's opinions have their merits, and one cannot arbitrarily say who is right and who is wrong.

In this way, Jiang Hongfei's decision-making ability will be tested.

Jiang Hongfei thought for a while and decided to trust Liu Huiniang's judgment, so he decisively ordered: "Attack!"

At night, the Liangshan Army's death squads first sneaked into the Jin Army's camp and set fire behind it.

Seeing the fire, Gaoliang personally beat the drum to cheer, and Liangshan's army attacked across the board.

In an instant, many Jin strongholds were defeated by the Liangshan army, even the Chinese stronghold that Wanyan Agu defeated was no exception.

The Jin camp suddenly fell into chaos, and the Jin soldiers fled one after another, losing their combat effectiveness.

Li Kui's army broke through Wanyan Wushu's Jinzhai, beheaded more than 3,000 people, and seized a large amount of military supplies. Xiang Chong and Li Gun also gave Wanyan Wushu's family to Lian Guoduan.

Later, Wanyan Wushu led his troops back to rescue his wife and daughter, but Hua Rong shot nine arrows in a row and shot them away.

Seeing that the situation was over, Wanyan Aguda ordered the camp to be burned down and fled at night.

The Liangshan Army then covered up the enemy and pursued the Jin Army non-stop.

The Liangshan Army has only one purpose at this moment: not to give the Jin Army a chance to breathe, but to pursue it fiercely and completely defeat or even eliminate the Jin Army!

The Jin army was killed by the Liangshan army and lost their armor. They fled towards Dushikou desperately, trying to escape into the grassland.

After receiving the notice from Ma Ling, Mrs. Jia, Xu Qingniang and Wang Gongren led Du Bo, Lu Junyi, Sun An, Shi Wengong and Wang Jin to leave Juyongguan and ambush the Jin army's only way.

Seeing the Jin army fleeing, Mrs. Jia gave an order to ambush the troops.

The Jin army had no intention of fighting and just tried their best to escape.

In this battle, Liangshan's army beheaded tens of thousands of people and captured more than five thousand alive.

Mrs. Jia had no intention of cleaning the battlefield, leaving the victorious troops to guard the prisoners. Following the discarded victory trophies, she retreated to Juyongguan and pursued a parallel pursuit through Gubeikou.

Chasing to the outside of the pass, Mrs. Jia and the others took over the lead of the Jin army again.

However, Mrs. Jia's men and horses were not many. Facing the large groups of fleeing Jin troops, they were unable to "swallow" them all.

The Liangshan army just tried their best to cover up the killing, and chased for more than a hundred miles until they reached Luanhe River before withdrawing their troops.

In addition, it is important to note that Wanyan Zongjun, the eldest son of Wanyan Aguda, died in the rebellion.

Also, the Jin army was defeated and fled, without caring about anything. As a result, many female relatives of the Jin state were thrown on the road and captured by the Liangshan army.

Among them, the most famous women, that is, the daughters of the royal family and the clan of the Kingdom of Jin, are: Dunuke, the wife of Wanyan Aguda, the beauty Xiao Shi of Wanyan Aguda (formerly Princess Wu, the daughter-in-law of Yelu Yanxi), Wanyan Zongjun’s princess Pucha, Wanyan Zongfu’s princess Pucha and Li Hongyuan, Wanyan Zongbi’s wife Tushan, Wanyan Zongbi’s daughters Wanyan Puci and Wanyan Xini, Wanyan Aguda’s eldest daughter Jin Guo’s eldest daughter Princess Wanyan Ulu.

There is no doubt that this battle ended with a disastrous defeat for the Jin army.

Wanyan Aguda originally wanted to defeat Jiang Hongfei and teach Jiang Hongfei, his neighbor, a profound lesson. It would be best to force Jiang Hongfei to give them Jin Dynasty coins every year like the Zhao and Song Dynasty gave them to Liao Kingdom.

However, contrary to expectations, Wanyan Aguda not only failed to achieve its goal, but also suffered an unprecedented defeat. Countless soldiers of the Jin Army who had fought for a long time became lonely ghosts on the clouds and grasslands.

After Wanyan Agu narrowly escaped death and fled to Yuanyangluo with his defeated soldiers, he hastily explained the military affairs to Wanyan Xieye and others. Because of this tragic defeat, he lost his beloved son, lost many beloved generals, and could not afford to fall ill... …

Let’s talk about Jiang Hongfei.

After achieving this unprecedented victory, Jiang Hongfei was overjoyed! ! !

Not only Jiang Hongfei, but also the people in Shuibo Liangshan, including the Liao people in the Yanyun area, all cheered! ! !

After this battle, at least for a short period of time, the Yanyun area was completely safe, and the Jin people would definitely not dare to invade.

Jiang Hongfei then ordered: Lin Chong went to recover Guizhou, Shi Jin went to recover Ruzhou, Tang Bin went to recover Fengshengzhou, Yang Zhi went to recover Wuzhou, Zhu Wu went to recover Liaoxi Jing, Hua Rong went to recover Yingzhou, and Luan Tingyu went to recover Shuozhou and Sun Li went to recover Yuzhou, Suochao went to recover Guihuazhou, Guan Sheng went to recover Dushikou, Xu Ning went to recover Jiming Mountain and Duanyun Ridge, Suqian went to recover Yehu Ridge and Taoshan, Qin The Ming Dynasty went to recover Baidao Ban, and Zhang Qing went to recover Chenjiayu and Liufan Ridge...

In short, Jiang Hongfei will take advantage of the general trend of chasing away the Jin people and completely regain Yundi.

This matter is actually not difficult at all.

You know, Bei Liao, which originally controlled Yun Di, was destroyed by Jiang Hongfei. Even the ruler of Bei Liao, Xiao Puxian, became Jiang Hongfei's plaything. The Jin who temporarily controlled Yun Di was beaten away by Jiang Hongfei and abandoned his helmet. A. The earth was filled with treasures, and the women also left behind a lot of them.

Moreover, when the Jin people occupied Yundi, they burned, killed, looted, and did all kinds of bad things. The people of Yundi longed for others to save them, and they were eager to see through it.

The key is that the Jin people previously captured the high-ranking officials, wealthy families, and gentry in Yundi. There are no longer any rulers in Yundi.

Therefore, most of the states and counties where the Liangshan Army regained Yundi encountered no resistance, and many states and counties even came to beg the Liangshan Army to take them over.

For example, as soon as the Liangshan Army defeated the Jin Army, Shuozhou Jiedushi Han Zheng, Yingzhou Jiedushi Su Jing, and Yuzhou local tycoon Chen Yi sent people to Jinpo Pass to contact the people in Shuibo Liangshan to express their willingness. The soil returned to the water in Liangshan.

Jiang Hongfei was very happy after hearing the news, and immediately asked the officials to arrange for officials to take over and manage the various prefectures and counties in Yundi. At the same time, he arranged for people to quickly transport food to Yundi for disaster relief.

Jiang Hongfei was so happy, and Jiang Hongfei's people were even more excited!

Chai Jin, who was brought back by Jiang Hongfei in exchange for Wu Xie and several other envoys from the Jin Kingdom, said to Jiang Hongfei: "Brother restored the sixteen states of Yanyun, and the three more states of Pingluanying, and rebuilt the Great Wall for me. It is a great joy for the Han people to make an unparalleled contribution, and a banquet should be held to celebrate it, and the emperor and his ministers should rejoice together!"

Normally, Jiang Hongfei doesn't like to hold such banquets, but it's different today. As Chai Jin said, Jiang Hongfei not only recovered the sixteen states of Yanyun for the Han people, but also recovered three more states: Ping, Luan, and Ying. , it’s really time to celebrate.

Therefore, Jiang Hongfei accepted Chai Jin's proposal and ordered a banquet to be held in the Long Live Hall.

The monarchs and ministers gathered together, boasted and drank, and it was very lively.

Attending this banquet were not only senior officials and generals from Wang Lun on down in Shuibo Liangshan, but also officials from the former Liao Kingdom who surrendered to Shuibo Liangshan, headed by Li Chuwen.

How many fools are there who play politics?

Who doesn’t know that after this battle, Jiang Hongfei not only established a firm foothold in the Yanyunping area, but Jiang Hongfei also fully possesses the ability to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor. And they are the founding heroes of the country and important ministers of the new dynasty in the future. In the vast world, they follow Jiang Hongfei , there’s a lot to be done!

Outside the hall, there are tall bamboos and cypress trees, and the trees are lush. Inside the hall, people are drinking wine and laughing. The vessels used for the banquet are extremely magnificent and dazzling. Fine wine and delicacies, Shao music and beautiful women, the fragrance is overflowing, just like heaven. When the king and his ministers gather together, they are enjoying themselves so harmoniously.

Jiang Hongfei was really happy today, so no matter who offered him a drink, he would always welcome them.

In the end, Jiang Hongfei inevitably drank too much.

Wang Lun and Li Chuwen helped Jiang Hongfei to a dormitory in the harem.

Jiang Hongfei asked in a daze: "Where is this?"

Wang Lun replied: "My elder brother had previously asked my younger brother to ask Li Cao to draw up a list and distribute the daughters of the royal family and clan members of the Jin Kingdom to the brothers. The younger brother thought it was inappropriate. The king is the king, and the ministers are ministers. The daughters of the royal family, the clan members, etc. How can my daughter be allowed to be accessed by others? Only my elder brother is worthy of enjoying it, so I discussed it with my brothers and thought that it would be better for my elder brother to accept these daughters of the royal family and clan of the Jin Kingdom, so that he can fill his harem. In order to prevent those small foreign countries and small tribes from looking down upon our country in the future, here are all the daughters of the royal family and clan members of the Jin Kingdom, who will sleep with their brothers tonight. "

Li Chuwen added at the side: "There are also the daughters of the royal family and the clan of the Liao Kingdom. We cannot let them fall into the hands of others, so as not to breed the ambitions of those people. The old minister is already involved in this matter, and he will teach them these days." They all enter the palace."

Jiang Hongfei really drank too much. He didn't hear clearly what Wang Lun and Li Chuwen said, so he casually responded: "Oh, okay."

At this time, Wang Lun Tuqiong saw: "Brother, everything is ready now, how about you ascend the throne?"

No one knew whether Jiang Hongfei understood what Wang Lun said. Anyway, he responded casually: "Okay." Then he opened the door of the dormitory and staggered in...

Well, he is about to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor. Let’s collect the country name and era name.

Let me start by throwing some light on things.

The first "beam" is the beam in the Liangshan Mountains.

The second "Qi", the protagonist's current territory is in Qi, and the previous article has also laid some groundwork.

The use of the above two country titles also echoes the Han people's rules for establishing dynasties and can be regarded as orthodox.

Another idea I have is to use "yuan".

Walking other people's paths leaves others with nowhere to go. Moreover, the word "Yuan" is also very good, let's start from the beginning; it is also suitable to designate this year as the first year, and let Westerners change it according to ours in the future; following the history, "Yuan" is also reasonable.

Well, okay, let me choose, I lean towards meta.

Of course, Liang Heqi, I think that’s fine too.

If someone has a great idea, they can come up with a more suitable one.

One more thing, forget about "中" and "干". I was criticized by people before, but I don't want to use these two this time.
