Chapter 105 The two armies meet in Luoyang (for collection)
Perhaps it was because he was too careless before and didn't notice the blockage of Tongji Canal, which sounded the alarm for Xiao Qi.
After Xiao Qi realized that he had become arrogant because of his previous success, he immediately became vigilant.
There are too many things that have caused Jingzhou to be careless in history, and he doesn't think that the Changsheng Battalion he leads now, and those immature trebuchets and homemade bombs, can really run amok in this era.
What's more, after many investigations by the scout battalion, it has now been found out that the left deputy commander Heshi Lie Zhining, who defeated the first Northern Expedition of the Song Dynasty last time, was re-appointed by the King of Jin as the commander. He led [-] troops and had already crossed the Yellow River , is expected to arrive in Luoyang at the same time as Xiao Qi.
After learning this information, Xiao Qi became more cautious. He sent someone to inform the right army led by Lin Zheng and Ma Shoucheng to slow down the attack speed and temporarily stabilize the areas that had been captured, so that Heshi Liezhi would rather not take advantage of it.
This Heshi Lie Zhining is a general of the Jin Kingdom that Xiao Qi attaches great importance to. This person has been recorded in history, and he is now the most powerful famous general of the Jin Kingdom.
Because the area attacked by the left army has two big cities, Kaifeng and Luoyang, Tokyo, which are very important to both Song and Jin.
Xiao Qi knew that Heshi Lie Zhining's primary target must be his left army, and the two sides would probably have a big battle in Luoyang that would determine the success or failure of the Northern Expedition.
For this reason, Xiao Qi ordered that both the Song army on the shore and the Song army on the ship should be on high alert and must be able to fight at any time.
And it is required that when the army is about to arrive in Luoyang, at least half of the trebuchets must go ashore, assemble them, and advance along the river to Luoyang City.
He would rather slow down than be suddenly attacked by Heshi Lie Zhining's troops, so that the trebuchet on his side was still unassembled on the ship and turned into a decoration.
At the same time, Heshi Lie Zhining led dozens of generals of the Jin Kingdom, and one hundred thousand Jin soldiers had all crossed the Yellow River, and the forward was less than [-] miles away from Luoyang City.
At this time, Heshi Lie Zhining was leading the [-] Chinese army, and rushed to Luoyang City [-] miles away from the forward.
Surrounding Heshi Lie Zhining were more than 20 generals of the Kingdom of Jin. These people were all selected by Heshi Lie Zhining, and they were generals who were able to conquer wars in the Kingdom of Jin.
However, He Shi Lie Zhining looked at those around him. It can be said that the generals who are the pillars of the Jin Kingdom, more than half of them have gray hair and beard, and their hearts are also inexplicably sad.
The general that Daikin can now stand on his own is getting older and older.
And there are not many talents among the young people who can replace these veterans.
Green and yellow do not answer ah!
No wonder the people of Song who were afraid of Dajin like a tiger dared to invade Dajin year after year. The Kingdom of Jin is indeed on the verge of decline!
However, this famous general who is known as the king of gold and the god of the sea, just dazed for a moment, and once again raised his lofty pride: As long as I, Heshi Lie Zhining, is still alive, the people of Song Dynasty can only be under the iron hooves of my gold man trembling!
Turning his head to look at a golden general not much younger than him: "General Wu Lintai!"
The veteran who was looking at the road ahead suddenly came back to his senses, and immediately bowed his hands to He Shi Lie Zhining: "Does Commander Zuo have any orders?"
He Shi Lie Zhining said:
"The commander-in-chief wants to send a fierce general with [-] troops to catch up with the striker Puguli and join him with [-] strikers.
After arriving at Luoyang City, don't enter the city, go around the city, and go to the Song Army to ambush the Song Army on the way forward. Will General Wu Lintai lead the army? "
Wu Lintai immediately bowed to Heshi Lie Zhining: "The final general is willing to go!"
He Shi Lie Zhining cupped his hands and bowed back:
"I've heard that the Marquis of the Northern Song Dynasty made good use of cavalry, and this commander ordered you to take five thousand cavalry and five thousand infantry.
General Wu Lintai is my Great Jindingliang General, and I am going this time to let the Song people understand that if it is about riding and shooting skills.
Those Song people are not even qualified to be apprentices to our Great Golden Cavalry Army! "
Wu Lintai immediately put her right fist on her left chest, and solemnly bowed to Heshi Lie Zhining:
"Don't worry, Zuo Shuai, Wu Lintai will definitely bring the head of that Song native Xiao Qi to Zuo Shuai!"
After Wu Lintai took the order, he immediately ordered [-] cavalry and [-] elite infantry of the Golden Army, and quickly chased the [-] forwards [-] miles ahead.
At the same time, Xiao Qi, who was [-] miles southeast of Luoyang City, also received a report that the [-] strikers of the Jinren would arrive in Luoyang first.
Xiao Qi thought for a while while riding on the horse, then decided to slow down his speed, and ordered the boats loaded with trebuchets and gunpowder pots to dock, unloaded the boats and began to assemble the trebuchets.
Xiao Qi knew very well that although his side was closer to Luoyang City than the Jin Army's main force, he could rush to Luoyang City ahead of time.
But because it takes a lot of time to unload and assemble the trebuchet from the ship, even if you arrive early, you won't have to wait until your trebuchet is assembled.
The Golden Army brigade over there will also arrive. At that time, the trebuchet on my side will not be able to be used. If I use more than 4 people to fight head-on with the [-] Jinren army, it will definitely be my side that will suffer.
So he decided to postpone the advance and assemble the trebuchets first. Even if these trebuchets were difficult to move on the shore, once they encountered the Jinren forward, they could immediately use the trebuchets to effectively kill the Jin army.
After a few rounds of earth bombs thrown by the trebuchet, as long as the whole army hits once on my side, the Jin army will definitely be defeated.
And Xiao Qi was right, if the Jin people arrived at Luoyang City before him, then their large troops would definitely advance into the city with their baggage.
Even if they plan to fight with him, half of them can come to fight with him.
With his [-] Changsheng Battalion, against [-] Golden Soldiers, Xiao Qi knew without thinking, that he would never lose!
In order to prevent his own judgment from being wrong, Xiao Qi also sent three scouting teams of 50 people, all with one person and two horses, to find out all the movements of the Jinren.
Speaking of which, this Heshi Lie Zhining deserves to be a famous general like the God of the Sea in the Jin Kingdom. From the loss of the scouts sent by the Changsheng Battalion, we can know that the golden soldiers under this Heshi Lie Zhining are all elite.
Because the scouts of the Changsheng Battalion, it can be said that they have not lost more than a quarter of their manpower against the Shangjin people's scouts.
But this time it was different, among the three 50-man scout teams sent by Xiao Qi, the one with the heaviest loss actually lost half of its manpower, and only more than 20 people came back.
Although these 20 people brought back nearly 50 war horses, which means that they finally won the duel of scouts, but judging from the horses, except for the [-] horses brought by [-] of them, they only killed about [-] horses. people.
This was impossible in the past, these scout battalions who practiced the "Evil Resisting Knife Manual", if 50 people met with a hundred gold people, they would have an absolute crushing advantage.
The loss of half of the manpower was definitely won after a hard battle.
Seeing this situation, he asked the scouts about the combat power of the Jinren this time.
Xiao Qi hurriedly sent people to gather all the generals above battalion officer, and asked them to go back and tell their soldiers that this time the Golden Army is more than twice as powerful as the previous Golden Army.
No matter how arrogant the soldiers in the Forbidden Army are, they will suffer a lot.
Xiao Qi's military order was quickly conveyed, and the soldiers of the Changsheng Battalion learned of what happened to the Scout Battalion, and they all paid attention to them one by one, throwing away the arrogance that they thought the Jin Army was all vulnerable to.
They knew very well in their hearts what the combat power of the scout battalion that had been merged into the Valiant Army was, that was the combat power of one person compared to three of their ordinary victorious battalion soldiers!
Such fierce men, fifty against one hundred of others, even though they won in the end, lost half of their manpower, wouldn't these golden soldiers be able to easily crush them, ordinary soldiers of the victorious battalion? what?
Of course, Xiao Qi would not raise his opponent too high, and in the end it would hurt the morale of his soldiers.
The original words he asked the generals to pass on were: This time the Jin people came from the real elite of the Jin Kingdom. Don't be arrogant.
As the scouts reported more and more, the Jin army had an army of ten thousand people, and the information that they quickly moved forward to catch up with the Jin army's forwards was also passed to Xiao Qi's hands.
Xiao Qi immediately concluded that it was because the Jin Ren coach did not intend to let the striker rest in the city.
Either let them ambush him on his way, or do something on his way to stop him from going to Luoyang.
Xiao Qi judged that these golden men probably planned to sneak attack him when he was exhausted on the march.
