Fu Jian was very angry, really angry!
Liang Cheng was his favorite general, and he was able to ascend to the position of King of Heaven. Liang Cheng made great achievements, and in the process of competing with the Yan Kingdom for the Central Plains, Liang Cheng almost played a decisive role. In this southern expedition, he also played a major role.
He has assumed the important task of being a vanguard officer and has always won every battle before.
I didn't expect, I didn't expect, that Liang Cheng was actually killed by an unknown soldier during a night attack by the Jin army, and took advantage of the momentary chaos to cause the entire Luojian front line to be wiped out!
The consequences of this battle were serious. The Jin army re-opened the Huaihe River waterway, and Hu Bin's army, which was about to collapse, was revived. More importantly, morale. It hardly took the craftsmen to convey it. Fu Jian also knew that the south bank was now
It is a day and night of joyful singing that boosts morale.
Bad news always comes one after another. On the Western Front, Huan Chong actually led the navy in person. Regardless of the empty Jiangling city, he led his army upstream and had a big battle with Yao Chang's troops. Due to the Qin army's warships,
Overall, it was not as good as the Jin army, and with the experience of water warfare, it was not the opponent of the Jingzhou army. Although Yao Chang commanded well, it could not change the balance of strength. Huan Chong quickly returned to the army after a small victory. Although the losses in this battle were not big
, but Yao Chang was temporarily unable to join forces with Murong Chui's troops.
So this had an effect. The troops of the Huan Chong Group were stuck in the area between the Yangtze River and the Han River. They took advantage of the favorable terrain and held back the two Qin armies to the west and north at the same time.
In this way, the wide front of the Huaihe River is mainly dominated by Fu Rong's army. Although these 200,000 troops are still the elite of the elite, the Beifu Army opposite also has 80,000 troops. The comparison of military strength is not that exaggerated.
What's more, Fu Jian knew that only about half of the 200,000 troops were truly composed of Di people and had no problem with their loyalty. Many of the rest were Xianbei and Qiang people. Of course Fu Jian didn't doubt them now, but because
With the defeat of Liang Cheng's troops and the fact that the main army had not yet moved south, the command of the front line was not very smooth now. This is why Fu Jian personally came to suppress the battle.
In order to break the deadlock, Fu Jian called Fu Rong to discuss a solution with his most trusted brother.
The two brothers didn't need to be polite at all. They sat down and Fu Jian asked: "Bo Xiu, the success or failure of Liang in this battle will be a big blow to our army. I want the entire army to cross the Feishui River and attack Jin head-on."
Army, what do you think of a decisive battle with Beifu directly?"
"Brother Wang, I got it from the defeated soldiers who escaped. Now the Jin army is united as one, and the generals are in harmony. It is very high. In my opinion, Liang Cheng's defeat was caused by his underestimation of the enemy. If he calls the battle in a dignified manner, Jin
The army is definitely not an opponent, but our army is huge in number and difficult to maneuver. Instead of taking the initiative to attack, it is better to wait for work." Fu Rong thought for a while and then told Brother Wang the results of his considerations in the past few days.
"Oh?" Fu Jian frowned slightly, "Please tell me more specifically."
"Brother Wang, look." A map has been placed on the table. "Now Shouyang is still in the hands of our army. This is the key to Huainan. If Shouyang is there, the Huaihe River defense line will be vulnerable. The Jin Kingdom must fight for it with all its strength."
, they have no choice, and the route of march can only forcefully cross the Feishui River, and it is impossible to detour behind us. Therefore, we only need to deploy the army along the Feishui River. If the Jin army does not come, the main force of our army will gradually move southward, with the overwhelming power of Mount Tai.
How can we resist!? If the Jin army comes, our army will retreat a few miles, wait until it is halfway across and attack it, and we will win a complete victory!"
"That makes sense!" Fu Jian nodded, "In that case, you quickly summon the generals and you will be responsible for the specific arrangements. We will fight the Jin army at Feishui!"
Fu Rong agreed, and indeed carried out according to this arrangement. Specifically, the Chinese army was naturally Fu Jian, the elite of the Di tribe led by Fu Rong. Due to the fierce battle between Zhang Hao's tribe and Xie Shi's navy coming up from the Huaihe River,
Zhang Hao's tribe should be the left army, Murong Wei's tribe should be the right army, and the rear army should be Fu Fang's tribe, responsible for protecting officials and transporting baggage.
The response of the Jin army was still very fast. As Fu Rong expected, Xie Shi and Xie Xuan took a short rest after the victory and then quickly marched forward. Now the army is second to Bagong Mountain on the right bank of Fei River in the northeast of Shouyang City.
After everything was arranged, Fu Jian was a little surprised when he heard that the Jin army had actually arrived at Bagong Mountain, so he led his generals to the city to observe. As the sun set in the west, the setting sun was like blood. Surrounded by Fu Rong and a large group of generals, Fu Jian arrived at the city.
head.
"Brother Wang, that is Bagong Mountain. There are about 10,000 Jin troops stationed there, and the leader is Liu Laozhi of the Beifu Army." Fu Rong reported based on the intelligence he had just received.
On Bagong Mountain in the distance, the grass and trees have not yet withered, and the Jin army's camp has been set up. Although it is far away and cannot be seen clearly, you can still see countless soldiers coming in and out, and they have appeared faintly.
Smoke.
"The Beifu Army is really a powerful army that is rare in the world. However, being able to defeat them is the greatest honor for our soldiers, isn't it?" Fu Jian had now completed the arrangements and felt very confident, so he was very excited at this time.
, said to everyone with a smile.
"Yes, His Majesty the King is wise and powerful, the Qin Iron Army is unparalleled in the world, and the strength of the Beifu Army is just to set off us."
"General Murong's words make sense."
Everyone agreed, saying that Fu Jian was so satisfied that he couldn't help but nod his head and laugh heartily.
At this moment, bursts of huge cheers came.
Fu Jian frowned slightly, "What is this sound?"
But at this time, there was no need to answer him, because the cheers that came from it were getting louder and louder!
"Drive out the Di slaves and restore the Central Plains! Drive out the Di slaves! Recover the mountains and rivers!" The voice went from blurry to clear, and the intervals became shorter and shorter. It was obvious that at first it was the generals who were shouting, but now the whole army is gathering together and shouting at the same time.
.
The power of tens of thousands of people shouting at the same time cannot be underestimated. From the top of the city, you can already see that the Jin soldiers have lined up neatly. Everyone has drawn their swords, and the tips of the swords reflect the light of the setting sun.
Like snow!
This is the cheers of the Jin soldiers! This is the cry of a nation! This is the battle of one civilization!
Fu Jian's face turned livid, and even the veins on his big hands bulged. No one dared to get into trouble at this time, risking the wrath of His Majesty the King.
The wind has picked up, and it is still a northwest wind. Even Fu Jian and others, who are wearing armor, feel a little chilly. However, the cheers of the Jin soldiers on the opposite side are not quiet at all, but are louder and louder in the sky!
The decaying grass and trees on Bagong Mountain swayed faintly with the north wind. The figures of more than ten thousand unyielding Beifu soldiers almost merged with the shadows of the grass and trees. Looking faintly, it seemed that the Jin army was not one.
Ten thousand, but one hundred thousand! Two hundred thousand! The Jin army is everywhere in the mountains and plains, and the neat chants add a bit of momentum. This is not an army that is about to be defeated in Fu Jian's eyes, but it is clearly an army that is in full swing and cannot be defeated.
Chapter completed!
