Chapter 167 Seduce the enemy deep

As Song Qing guessed, Wanyan Zongwang came to suppress him and prevent him from sending troops to rescue Tokyo Bianliang.

Wanyan Zongwang's 200,000 troops came slowly like a turtle, unexpectedly playing in the mountains and rivers. In order to guard against the mysterious weapons of Liangshan people and horses, Wanyan Zongwang will send a team to repeatedly survey the nearby ground before arriving at a place, and then be willing to march after confirming that there is no danger.

Wanyan Zongwang's caution undoubtedly ensured the safety of his march, leaving Liangshan people unable to start.

At the routine military meeting, Song Qing invited Li Gang and Zhang Shuye as an exception, but for such a cautious famous general of the State of Jin as Wanyan Zongwang, no one could think of a better way.

Li Gang's suggestion is to resist the enemy, so that it is not easy to be besieged by the golden soldiers. Obviously, he also saw the conspiracy of the Jin people, which was to concentrate his superior forces to suppress Song Qing after solving the people of the Bianliang court.

Of course, Song Qing can't tell them that he has already had heavy troops in Liangshan, otherwise it will be easy for them to guess their real purpose.

Cavalry training is not easy, so Liang Shan is now only 50,000 cavalry. These are all Song Qing's treasures. How can he easily send them out to fight with the golden soldiers? Moreover, most of these cavalry have now been secretly gathered in Liangshan, so it is impossible to go out of the city to fight against the golden soldiers.

At this time, news came from Kaifeng that Wanyan Xiyin, deputy marshal of Jinbing East Road, had crossed the Yellow River and approached Kaifeng under the leadership of Zhao Gu. The march was not fast. It seemed that he was waiting for Wanyan Zonghan on the West Road, and then surrounded Bianliang in Tokyo.

Zhao Gu obviously wants to make the traitors more thorough, otherwise the Jin Bing would not have marched so quickly.

In this case, Song Qing can only hope that Zhao Huan can resist Jin Bing for a while and buy time for himself.

Just as Song Qing was discussing with everyone how to resist the enemy, he waited for an emergency report. When Wanyan Zongwang's army was marching to Yucheng, he suddenly stopped.

Don't leave? Song Qing immediately frowned.

In fact, Yucheng can be the first gateway in front of Jinan Fucheng, but the terrain there is flat, and the city pool is small, which is not suitable for a large army to garrison, so Song Qing directly gave up there.

Like last time, Jinan Prefecture has implemented hard walls and clearing fields before the golden soldiers came, and all personnel and materials were evacuated to the back of Jinan City. However, after all, Song Qing could not destroy the city without scruples like the Jin people. When the Jin soldiers withdrew, the people would still have to return to life, otherwise Song Qing would have ordered people to blow it to the ground.

Yucheng is more than 100 miles away from Jinan Fucheng, and the cavalry can reach it in less than half a day. Although there is a water gap between them, it obviously can't be stopped for too long. Wanyan Zongwang is not Wanyan Zonggan and Wanyan. Ordinary schemes are impossible for him to be fooled.

Now Wanyan Zongwang stopped in Yucheng and seemed to have done nothing, but this move undoubtedly saved Song Qing's Liangshan people.

If Liangshan's army takes the initiative to attack, Liangshan's men and horses are obviously not the golden soldiers dominated by cavalry in the wild.

If Liangshan can't defend, he can only watch the golden soldiers break through Bianliang in Tokyo, and then let all kinds of golden soldiers surround themselves.

Therefore, Wanyan Zongwang's move can be said to be extremely smart and poisonous, but he can't help but Song Qing not accept it.

Looking at what Wanyan Zongwang did all the way, Song Qing knew that he had despised the enemy and really thought he was the god of war after winning several battles.

Now is not the time to discuss negligence. We must find a way to repel Wanyan Zongwang as soon as possible.

Song Qing once again summoned the generals and ministers to discuss the strategy against the enemy.

At this meeting, some generals proposed to bring artillery to meet the enemy.

Song Qing's idea is that artillery can certainly be used, but it is not a god and cannot completely pin hopes on artillery. Because the current artillery is still relatively bulky and malfunctioning, it can't shoot freely like a submachine gun.

First of all, there are only 100,000 horses in Jinan City. If you attack, should you bring more?

Secondly, what if people and horses go out of the city and are cut off by the golden soldiers? Knowing that it is 200,000 troops, in addition to the necessary people to defend the city, sending that little soldier out, it is easy to be submerged by the golden soldiers.

Wu Yong thought for a moment and said, "It seems that only by taking the lead in defeating Wanyan Zongwang with superior forces can we free our hands to rescue Tokyo. Otherwise, we will be pressed here by him and can only watch Tokyo fall."

Song Qing understood what Wu Yong meant, that is, to use 150,000 troops hidden in Liangshan, so that the number of the two armies is equal, and with superior firepower, it is not so difficult to defeat the enemy.

It seems that this is the only thing in front of us.

Li Gang didn't see him and said, "Since the Duke still has a back hand, why don't you use it together? Fighters don't wait for people!"

Everyone knows the truth, but it's not that simple to do. First of all, Liangshan is still a long way from Yucheng. It is impossible for so many people to march without revealing their whereabouts. If the Jin soldiers who besieged Bianliang get the news and divide the troops to do this? At that time, don't say that Yan Zongwang will be defeated. I'm afraid that the whole Liangshan army will be trapped. Therefore, you must not touch the people there unless you have to.

After listening to a few more suggestions, I still haven't found anything that can satisfy me.

Han Shizhong, who had not spoken at this time, suddenly said, "Your father, the last general thought that 200,000 golden soldiers went south to our Jinan Prefecture, and his logistical supply must not be so abundant. After entering our Jinan Mansion, we implemented a strong wall and clear field, and Jin soldiers could not support the war, so they must also want to end this war. yi”

In fact, everyone understands Han Shizhong's words, but understanding is one thing, but how to deal with it is another.

However, Han Shizhong's words still inspired Song Qing a lot. Our army is obviously not suitable for field warfare. Why am I always entangled in taking the initiative to attack?

Wanding people to lift the map, stand in front of the map and meditate.

Wan Zongwang's intention is not to let me go out of the city, but what about me going out of the city? Wanyan Zongwang knows what will happen if I lead the army out of the city?

Thinking of this, he turned his head and said to Han Shizhong, "General Han, what will Wanyan Zongwang do if I lead the troops to Kaifeng?"

Han Shizhong may not do anything else, but in military terms, he is undoubtedly a genius. After listening to Song Qing's question, his eyes couldn't help but light up. He said, "If I am Wanyan Zongwang, I will definitely mobilize people and horses to destroy the Liangshan army in the field, cut off the route of people and horses returning to Jinan City, and then concentrate the superior forces to take Jinan City in one fell swoop>

Seeing that Han Shizhong understood his mind, Song Qing nodded and smiled, "My family is all handed over to General Han"

Han Shizhong said awe-inspiringly: "The city is there, people are there, and the city is destroyed and people are dead"

Song Qing shook his head and said, "I don't want to hear about the destruction of the city. I want you all to live well. At the same time, I want to remind you that in order to attract Wanyan Zongwang to pursue me, I must take away half of the people in the city, so your burden is not light."

He turned his head and said to Chen Dong: "Mobilize the young people in the city and ask them to guard our home together"

Zhang Shuye couldn't help asking, "Does the Duke want to personally help Bianliang?"

Song Qing smiled mysteriously and said, "If you don't break Wanyan Zongwang, how can you talk about rescuing Bian Liang?"

At the third hour of the next day, the gate of Jinan City suddenly opened, and then countless human resources kept coming out of the city and heading south.

In the light of the torch, Song Qingding's helmet was mounted on the horse. After saying something to the generals, he left with the brigade. Then the gate of Jinan Mansion was closed again.

Every move on the side of Jinan has been closely monitored by the Jin soldiers, so as soon as Song Qing took people away, the scouts were sent to Wanyan Zongwang as soon as possible.

Song Qing really led troops out of the city? And with no less than 50,000 people?

When he heard the news, Wanyan Zongwang thought he had heard it wrong. How many people are there in Jinan? The spy has already detected it clearly, so when he heard that Song Qing had taken away half of his troops, Wanyan Zongwang really doubted the accuracy of the news.

However, Wanyan Zongwang believes that the scouts do not have the courage to lie. In this way, there are only two possibilities. One is that Bianliang can't support it, and he is eager to rescue him.

There is another trick that he is playing to lure the enemy deep. But I'm afraid he's looking for the wrong person.

But no matter what kind of conspiracy and trick it is useless in the face of absolute strength, doesn't Song Qing understand that he wants to fight against my 200,000 army with more than 100,000 horses?

It is exactly what Han Shizhong said. Wanyan Zongwang seems to be murderous, but he is indeed under great logistical pressure. Only by taking Jinan Fucheng as soon as possible can this pressure be relieved, so he can't wait.

After meditating for a long time, Wanyan Zongwang finally ordered troops to enter the city of Jinan Prefecture. At the same time, he sent many scouts to increase the investigation of the surrounding areas, so as not to give Liangshan any opportunity to take advantage of it.

200,000 troops stepped on the morning sun and moved forward slowly as before. They did not arrive at the city of Jinan Prefecture until the afternoon. The road was smooth and surprising that there was no ambush on the water, and the legendary mysterious mines did not appear at all.

The more like this, Wanyan Zong felt that Song Qing must have a conspiracy, but until he camped under Jinan City, there was still no movement in Jinan City.

Is it your own mistake? Anyway, let's try to attack the city tomorrow.

At this time, he came back with the scouts who went to track Song Qing and reported to Wanyanzong that Song Qing did take away 50,000 horses. Although most of them were infantry, they marched very fast. In less than a day, they had arrived at Changqing. If they follow this speed, they could enter Yunzhou tomorrow.

Running fast enough, Wanyan Zongwang pondered that he was here to delay Song Qing, so he must not let him rescue Bianliang.

Thinking of this, he immediately ordered the general Wanyan Yinshu to chase him with 50,000 light riders. As long as he blocked Song Qing, there was no need to rush to launch an attack. After he took Jinan Fucheng, he would work together to destroy him.

Before it was completely dark, Wanyan Yinshu led his soldiers to chase Song Qing.

Wanyan Zong looked up at the towering wall of Jinan and thought to himself, Song Qing, I would like to see how capable you can defeat my army?
