C53 The war of monk yuan
At this moment, on the original position of the monk base, even though it was already night and the sky was snowy, this place was actually bustling with activity!
The soldiers were building up their defenses. Countless rocks and sand were placed in front of the base, and countless arrows and weapons were delivered to the front!
Wu Jie stood in front and looked around at the terrain! Even though it was night, his eyes seemed to radiate with light. He could clearly see everything around him! His martial arts were strong and he had long since reached the Xiantian realm! Not only him, his brother Wu Lin was also an Innate Ranker! This was one of the reasons why he was so confident! In this world, Xiantian masters were simply too rare. It was impossible for one to not be confident in having such skills!
Of course, what gave him confidence was not only martial arts, but also his strategy!
He had joined the Western Army more than ten years ago, and when he had fought with the Western Xia race, he had also fought with Fang La! After so many great wars, he had repeatedly performed wondrous feats! It's just that he was born of a low status like Han Shizhong and the others, so even until now, he was still only a vice-general! Han Shizhong and Zhang Jun were already widely known, but he and Wu Lin were still unknown, so he was always feeling stifled in his heart!
"Big brother, can we really defend Monk Yuan?" Wu Lin came behind Wu Jie and said.
"Don't worry, there won't be any problems! You've seen the original topography of this monk, he's easy to defend but hard to attack! As long as we guard this place, the Nvzhen will definitely not go south! " Wu Jie said.
"We only have over 5000 brothers and an army of tens of thousands from the Nvzhen. We will win by a small margin, big brother, do you have that kind of confidence?" Wu Lin said again.
"Trust me! Not only will we be able to defend this place, we will also be able to obtain victory and defeat the Jin Army! "Now, it's time for us brothers to become famous throughout the world!" Wu Jie laughed.
His voice was filled with confidence, and due to the influence of his voice, Wu Lin's mood immediately became tranquil, he nodded, and expressed his trust in his elder brother!
"How are your preparations for the arrows?" Wu Jie said again.
"There are at least fifty thousand arrows here. That's more than enough for us to use in this battle!" Wu Lin said.
"Very good! 50,000 vials was enough! For the sake of these fifty thousand arrows and the five thousand brachial arch, we have paid a huge price! All of the gold and silver we have accumulated over the past ten years has been used up, and we have used them all to buy these brachial arch s and arrows! " Wu Jie nodded and said.
"The Curved End used crossbows as a way to protect his highness and to repel him. The Curved End actually asked us for so much gold and silver. We are his subordinates in name! We deserve to die!" Wu Lin cursed.
"Right now, my Song Dynasty is like this, the army belongs to the generals, and those weapons belong to the generals too! We are just subordinates of the Curved End in name, but in truth, the two of us are like rootless duckweed with nowhere to go, we can only recruit new troops from Sichuan, and even the salary was prepared for us, it's normal for the Curved End to pressure us! " Wu Jie sighed softly and said.
"Now that the Song Dynasty has become like this, no wonder he was defeated by the Nvzhen! If all our troops belong to the imperial government, with the imperial government acting as the commander, how can our million strong army not defend against the Nvzhen? " Wu Lin said hatefully.
"That's not necessarily true! Other than the lack of troops, the imperial court itself is filled with adulterers. Furthermore, the Emperor and the Emperor can't really be considered wise and wise, since we can't stop the Nvzhen, that's for sure! " Wu Jie shook his head and said.
"Big brother, do you think our Song Dynasty can take back the Central Plains?" Wu Lin said again.
"I saw the Crown Prince a few days ago. He was very calm! "If His Highness the Crown Prince is a hero of his generation, the civil and military officials of the imperial court would listen to his orders and unite with him. If the civil officials are not greedy for money and the military generals are not afraid of death, there is still hope for the restoration of the Central Plains!" Wu Jie said.
"Civil officials are not greedy for wealth, and generals are not afraid of death. How is this possible?" Wu Lin laughed bitterly.
"No matter what, I must win Monk Yuan's battle! I have to tell this world, other than Han Shizhong, Zhang Jun and the others, there are also my Wu brothers in Western Army! With us here, this Chuan Shan will become as strong as a rock, and the Nvzhen will not be able to take down Chuan Shan! " Wu Jie clenched his fist and said with all his might!
Wu Lin nodded, the two brothers looked at each other and laughed out loud!
"In tomorrow's battle, we'll have to see Yang Congyi first!" Wu Jie looked ahead, and said secretly.
At this moment, hundreds of miles away in the north, Wan Yanwushu had already led the army to the vicinity of the Qin Mountains!
The number of the true female army had increased greatly compared to the past few days. Other than Wan Yanwushu, the usual victorious general of the Nvzhen, Wanyan Loushi, had also arrived! The number of women in the army had reached forty thousand!
The night was dark, and Wan Yanwushu and Wanyan Loushi were discussing about the battle in one of the tents.
In front of them was a simple map of Sichuan Shan. Although this map was simple and crude, the important points were all drawn on it.
"This is a divine fork, ahead is the original monk, these are all nothing!" After the monk was the Dazhang Pass, which was the south-western barrier. Back then, the war between Cao Cao and Zhang Lu had happened here, and Han Xin had done the same for the hidden Chen Cang! The Home Breaker must have already fled to this place, and the Song Dynasty's Crown Prince must have fled to this place as well! Therefore, the goal of our battle is this Dazhang Pass! " Wanyan Loushi said.
However, the monk in front of the Dazhang Pass was initially not taken seriously by others. It was only until Wu Jie defeated the Jin Army here that the monk was listed as a strategic location as important as the Dazhang Pass!
"Wo Liyan, who drew this map? And who told you about the Dazhang Pass? " Wan Yanwushu said in shock.
"This is the work of the Grand Marshal's advisor, Dao Elder Xiao Zi. The importance of this Dazhang Pass was naturally told to me by him as well!" Wanyan Loushi said.
"The unrestrained child, so it's him!" Wan Yanwushu nodded.
Because of such an extraordinary tactic, the reputation of the Free and Unrestrained Child had already risen greatly. As the Fourth Prince of the Jinguo, Wan Yanwushu had even heard of the famous Free and Unrestrained Child!
"Attacking Dazhang Pass is different from other places, we can't urgently march anymore! First of all, we, the real girls, have been exhausted since we fought last year. This kind of hasty march is not bad every once in a while, but it is impossible to keep going like this! Secondly, Zhe Keqiu definitely knew the importance of the Dazhang Pass. He understood that losing the Dazhang Pass was equivalent to losing the Guan Shan, so he definitely would not leave the Dazhang Pass! There are one hundred thousand Song Army there, even if we march hard, we won't be able to take them down! We need to gather all our forces and gather all of our forces under the Dazhang Pass, only then can we defeat the Dazhang Pass! Zhe Keqiu is not comparable to Yao Gu, he is still much stronger than him! " Wanyan Loushi said.
"I naturally understand this principle!" Wo Liyan, we will let the soldiers set up camp here. After taking a break, we will head to Dazhang Pass! "In addition, we need to bring more siege weapons. Without them, it will not be easy to break down the mountain pass!" Wan Yanwushu said.
Wanyan Loushi nodded.
"Oh right, have we caught up with them yet? "Even without food and supplies, that won't do!" Wan Yanwushu said again.
"Don't worry, the supplies are right behind us. They'll catch up soon!" Wanyan Loushi said.
After ten years of development in Nvzhen, the way of fighting in the Nvzhen was no longer the same as before! In the previous small-scale wars, they could have covered a long distance without having to worry about food and supplies. But now, when they were fighting, they had to consider the weight of food and supplies! In history, the only people who didn't need to worry about food and supplies was the Mongols. The Mongols carried the beef jerky and rode the war horses forward. Their war horses were mostly female horses. Although the Nvzhen was also a barbarian tribe in the north, they were different from the Mongols. The Mongols were a race immediately, and they were a race in the deep mountains and in the deep forests.
After Wan Yanwushu settled everything down, he finally relaxed!
It was just that in the darkness of the night, he could not fall asleep! As the Fourth Prince of Da Jin, this was the first time he was commanding a war on such a large scale! He could not help but walk out of the tent and stand on the slope to observe the arrangement of the tent!
The tents were arranged in a row, also known as the continuous beaded stronghold, extending for more than 20 miles!
Jin Wushu had loved to use the Consecutive Jewel Stronghold his entire life. Throughout history, he had always used the same method to make the stronghold appear, and at this moment, he was also using the same method!
"This Battalion Commander is so long, it shows how many of our Great Golden Army soldiers there are! Heh, just a mere Crown Prince of the Great Song Dynasty, he's definitely mine! Crown Prince of the Great Song Dynasty still has the Imperial Jade Seal of the Central Plains, I must get them! " Jin Wushu thought excitedly!
After quite a while, Jin Wushu finally returned to his own tent to rest!
The morning of the second day, Jin Wushu did not immediately enter the army. He first sent people to investigate the environment in front of them, and only when it was noon did they all leave and advance towards the Dazhang Pass!
Two hours later, they arrived at the Shankong position. Here, they encountered more than a thousand of Yang Congyi's Song Army s, but the moment Yang Congyi's troops saw them, they all retreated backwards! Behind them was a huge mountain, and they had already retreated to the middle of the mountain. Nvzhen was not familiar with the terrain, she could not catch up with them!
"Song Army is still so weak! I have more confidence in conquering the Dazhang Pass! " Jin Wushu laughed.
He immediately ordered the entire army to move forward, but the road ahead was unusually difficult! Here, the cavalry was useless. All the soldiers had to dismount and lead their horses forward!
Seeing this scene, Jin Wushu could not help but frown, Wanyan Loushi could not help but frown as well!
Although they had already sent people to investigate the terrain of the Dazhang Pass area, and knew that the terrain was complex and the roads were difficult, they did not expect the roads to be this difficult!
No wonder the Song Army had to retreat into the Dazhang Pass s, it was because the terrain in front of the Dazhang Pass s was too complicated!
"Fourth Prince, should we consider it a little more, explore the surroundings in front of us a little more, and then move on?" Wanyan Loushi said.
"No need! We have forty thousand soldiers, as long as we pass the Monks in front, we will reach the Dazhang Pass! According to my investigation, the path before the Monk Origin was unusually difficult. After the path after the Monk Origin, it would become flat! Monk originally had a group of Song Army guardians, but it was said that there were only a few thousand, and none of them were worthy of being called a monk! " Jin Wushu said flatly.
He then ordered the soldiers to continue moving forward. The female soldiers could only follow the mountain path in a straight line. In the afternoon, the army finally arrived in front of the Monk's original position!
