410 [Sweeping] (6)

To the south of Lulong Village, the land is vast and there are waves of soldiers.

More than a month ago, Daliang Wuwei Hou Ningzhong led 40,000 troops in formation here to fight with Zhang Qingbai, the general of Xiwu Zhennan, with real swords and guns. The final outcome is self-evident. Zhang Qingbai's infantry had already exposed the defeat of Guping's army.

Xiang, when the Western Wu cavalry rushed out, Gu Ping's army was defeated like a mountain, and Ning Zhong fled back to Nanshan Village in embarrassment.

Daliang Right Military Plane, Cheng'an Hou Lu Min led the Peking Army's Beida Camp to Guping Camp, and ordered Ning Zhong to lead the troops to support behind Jiming Village, while he himself led the army to Lulong Village.

Zhang Qingbai and Xie Lin faced a similar situation. They also had to divide their troops into other important towns. The southernmost troops were directed towards Qingshui County in Jinchuan Prefecture, so the number of troops left in the formation was about 70,000.

However, there were no Pei Yue and Tibetan front guards in the battle on the southern front. The changes in the situation were always under Zhang Qingbai's control, and the variables he least liked did not appear. At the same time, Lu Min's performance made him suspicious. This Liang Guojun soldier

The boss's tactics seemed very weird. Faced with the southern offensive launched by him, Lu Min's response could even be said to be conservative, without any of the vigor and determination he had when he rose up in the army.

It would be fine if that was all, but he wanted to lead the Beijing army to the vicinity of Lulongzhai and assume a decisive battle with the Wu army. This move was inconsistent with the previous conservatism and was not worthy of a famous general.

Zhang Qingbai did not know the internal connections between the Liang Army and intuitively believed that this was Lu Min's strategy to show weakness and underestimate the enemy. Therefore, after the Liang Jing Army approached Lulong Village, he did not immediately send troops for a confrontation. After repeatedly analyzing the intelligence from all parties, it was confirmed that Liang

Jinshui Camp in the south of the country, Hucheng in the northwest, and the battle situation on the northern front were all too busy for him to take care of, and they would not divide their troops to support Lu Min, so he commanded the army to march eastward.

The army will hunt on the plain south of Lulong Village.

Both sides did not try their best in the first two battles. Xiwu had a certain advantage. If the Daliang Jing army was not a first-class elite, it would probably have made the same mistake as the Gu Ping army. Whether it was pre-war preparations or battlefield command, Lu Min's performance was very good.

Normally, after all, the Peking Army’s Peking Camp only had 40,000 troops, while Zhang Qingbai had 70,000 troops. It’s not surprising that the losses were slightly larger.

But someone finally smelled something was wrong.

Zhang Qingbai felt that Liang Jun's coach's command was always a step slower, and he was full of timidity from beginning to end. He couldn't understand this, and in the end he could only attribute it to the fact that Lu Min held a high official position and was in Liang Guo's position.

He lost his true feelings in the power struggle in Kyoto and had long forgotten his duty. Nearly ten years of government service had worn away his courage as a general.

Some people in the Liang Army formation also discovered some problems. The deputy commander of the Western Army, Qi Yunhou Yinwei, asked Guo Min for instructions before the war, hoping to transfer the Guping Army as a backup, so that he could cause some trouble to Zhang Qingbai if necessary.

Lu Min pondered for a while and firmly refused, and asked rhetorically: "Deputy Commander Yin, the importance of Jiming Village goes without saying. If only a few thousand soldiers are left to defend the city, what if Zhang Qingbai gathers a heavy army to capture it?

The road will be cut off, don’t you understand this?”

Yin Wei has a calm and down-to-earth personality, and is especially good at observing the overall situation. This is why Emperor Kaiping valued him and transferred him from the border to the head coach of the Beijing camp. Since leaving Kyoto, he has been conscientiously doing his job, and all decisions have been made.

In the hands of Lu Min, he only questioned it once.

That was when the Beida Camp was still halfway through. He once proposed to speed up the march, but Lu Min vetoed it.

If he followed his proposal, Ning Zhong might not have the chance to seduce Zhang Qingbai, and he would not lose more than ten thousand soldiers.

Even now, Yin Wei finally couldn't hold back the irritability in his heart and said to Lu Min: "In that case, why fight? As long as the relevant important towns are defended, the people of Xiwu are the ones who can't hold on."

The corners of Lu Min's lips raised slightly, and he sneered: "You must also know something about the war in the Western Region. Now the Wu people have launched a full-scale offensive, not just for one city or one place. If we keep defending, our morale will inevitably be extremely low. By then,

Even if you want to send troops to fight the enemy, you will probably end up with a narrow escape. If you don't take advantage of the fact that the Beijing army has just arrived here and the Wu people don't know the details, and give them a blow in the head, it will be difficult to find opportunities in the future."

Both of them have their own reasons, so naturally no one can convince the other - but Lu Min doesn't need to convince him.

The Daliang military system implements the decision-making system of the commander-in-chief, especially on the battlefield. There is no difference between the deputy commander-in-chief Yin Wei and the commanders below.

After the first two battles, the losses of the Beijing army were slightly heavier than those of the Xiwu people, but they could not be called heavy. The number of casualties was more than 2,000.

The third battle has finally arrived.

After previous tests, both sides in this battle invested more than half of their troops from the beginning, and the battle was extremely brutal. Especially the left front in charge of Yin Wei encountered the most elite soldiers under Zhang Qingbai. He was not surprised by this, although he went to Peking University

The battalion commander has only been in charge for more than two years, but it is not difficult to cultivate a strong army of his own confidants. After all, he is much better than Li Pingzhong, who was born as a civilian, and the latter still cannot take over the southern camp of the Beijing Army for his own use.

Now that Zhang Qingbai saw it, he took action decisively.

Yin Wei persisted with all his strength. After dragging nearly 20,000 elites of the opponent into the quagmire, he successively sent heralds to the Chinese army to request support.

The heralds came and went at high speed every time, but in the end they looked ugly because Lu Min asked the left wing to continue to hold on, and he wanted to defeat Zhang Qingbai's main formation from the right.

Yin Wei was so angry that he cursed his mother, but it was impossible to find fault with Lu Min's decision.

Using your strongest side to hold back twice the opponent's troops, and then concentrating heavy troops to defeat the opponent's flanks is very reasonable in terms of tactics. You can't follow the enemy's rhythm. However, you see the soldiers under your command constantly falling in a pool of blood.

Meanwhile, the anger in Yin Wei's heart was on the verge of exploding.

The only thing he can do now is to frequently adjust his formation in order to minimize his own losses. At the same time, he hopes that Lu Min can keep his word and turn the tide before the situation collapses.

It's a pity that there are nine out of ten people who are unhappy in this world. Zhang Qingbai is very good at defense and counterattack, which can be seen from the fact that he made Pei Zhen suffer a big loss in the first place. Faced with the overwhelming force that Lu Min was almost risking his fate on, he dealt with it calmly and calmly

, and then seize the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to insert a cavalry into Liang Jun's ribs and cut the entire battlefield again!

The tide is over.

Yin Wei knew it at a glance. Just when he was desperate, the flag of the Liang Cavalry suddenly appeared on the edge of the battlefield.

Everyone's expressions perked up because they all recognized that it was the flag of the Hucheng garrison.

However, this exciting mood did not last long. Both Lu Min and Yin Wei soon discovered that a cavalry also appeared on the other side of the reinforcements, blocking the Hucheng cavalry from the battlefield.

The origin of this new Xiwu cavalry is clear. At the front of the team is a strong sergeant carrying a large flag fluttering in the wind, with a huge "thank you" written on the flag.
