After a moment of silence, Niu Gao raised his hand and said, "But Fushi County, Yanzhou?"
Chen Qing gave a thumbs up and praised: "Niu Tongzhi has a unique vision, how did you come up with this idea?"
Niu Gao scratched his head in embarrassment and said: "I infer that the Jin soldiers will cross the Yellow River from Yanzhou, so their first target must be Fushi County. Controlling Fushi County will also control the production area of fierce fire oil. In addition, Fushi
The county has a large population, and they can also get food supplements. Then starting from Fushi County and attacking Luojiao County and Central County in the south, the Jin soldiers can gradually open the passage to Guanzhong."
Veteran general Guan Shigu frowned and said: "The prerequisite for attacking Fushi County is that the Jin soldiers attack Shaanxi Road from the north. But what if the Jin soldiers go through Pujin Pass or Tongguan?"
Chen Qing said calmly: "We are facing an experienced Jinbing veteran, and Wanyan Yinkeshu is very good at cunning schemes, so we also need to strengthen the defenses at Tongguan and Pujingguan, but the strategy is not right.
You can't win, and the right way is to complement each other with good and evil. We understand this, and so does Wanyan Yinkeshu. It's just that Pujin Pass and Tongguan are not suitable for large-scale attacks. Jin Bing has the experience of going south from Luoshui Road many times.
, so I judge that the main force of the Jin soldiers will go to Yanzhou to cross the Yellow River, and then surprise troops will be sent out from Pujin Pass or Tongguan."
Liu Qiong raised his hand and said: "If the Jin soldiers occupy Yanzhou, they may also go back to Pingliang Mansion and then use the Jingshui Road to enter Guanzhong."
Yang Zaixing disapproved, "If we go around the Jingshui Road, what about the logistics and supplies?"
Liu Qiong retorted: "I have experience. If the road is familiar, the cavalry only needs to prepare six days of dry food to rush from Yanzhou to Pingliang Mansion. You must know that the Jin soldiers rely on war to support war and will not consider any logistical supplies. Pingliang
The farmers in the prefecture and the sheep in Yuanzhou are their source of food. If ten thousand cavalry enter Guanzhong from the Jingshui Road, the consequences will be serious."
Jiang Yan first said: "What Commander Liu said makes sense. There are three thousand defenders in Pingliang County. You can send an experienced general to defend, and then set up another defense in Danzheng Gorge and Xinping County. As long as the defenders are not careless, Jing will be defeated."
There will be no problem with the waterways.”
Niu Gao raised his hand and said: "I recommend General Wang Duo to guard Pingliang County. He is very organized in organizing civilians and deploying Jundu. If two thousand more defenders are added to Pingliang County, Pingliang County will definitely be able to block the enemy."
Chen Qing nodded, "General Wang Duo can do it. There are only 3,000 garrison troops in Pingliang County, which is indeed a little less. We will transfer 3,000 troops from Chengji County to support, of which Pingliang County will support 2,000 troops, and another 1,000 troops will reinforce Jianxiao Pass.
Prevent the Jin soldiers from breaking through Jianxiao Pass and entering the pass from Lishui."
After a pause, Chen Qing continued: "The defenders of Danzheng Gorge and Xinping County were all mobilized from Guanzhong."
Zhou Kuan suggested: "If the army is insufficient, I suggest that some troops be transferred back from Bashu to supplement the defense in various places in Guanzhong."
Everyone agreed that at this critical moment, it was indeed unnecessary for Bashu to release 50,000 troops.
Chen Qing listened to everyone's suggestions and immediately ordered to transfer 20,000 troops from Bashu and 5,000 troops from Hanzhong. The 25,000 troops were used to increase defenses everywhere.
At the end of the discussion, Chen Qing said to Niu Gao: "Fushi County is the most important node, and it is also the city where the Jurchens will launch a large-scale attack. There are currently 5,000 defenders in Fushi County. I will give you another 5,000 troops. You Lead these ten thousand troops to defend Fushi County no matter what, and leave the kerosene production area alone. As long as Fushi County is not lost, the entire operation of the enemy army will not be smooth. I will leave this task to you."
Niu Gao nodded silently and said: "The humble position may need some weapons and material support..."
"No problem, I can give you any weapons and supplies you need!"
Shaanxi Road and Hedong Road are bounded by the Yellow River, which is the second vertical line in the "Ji" shape of the Yellow River. Although it is only blocked by a Yellow River, the travel between the Qin and Jin Dynasties is like a natural chasm, especially the Qin Jin Grand Canyon, which is thousands of miles long in the middle, and the mountains on both sides It is so steep that it looks like a barrier thousands of miles long.
Since ancient times, the Qin and Jin Dynasties have been traveling by ferry, forming dozens of large and small ferry crossings. However, even if you cross the Yellow River, you cannot enter the hinterland of Guanzhong or northern Shaanxi. You must continue to go south or north along the Yellow River. Go and find the pass to enter the hinterland.
That morning, 20,000 Jurchen troops appeared in front of the Yongheguan Ferry in Shizhou on Hedong Road. Both this ferry and the Qingshuiguan Ferry on the other side had long been abandoned. During the Jianyan period, the Jin soldiers attacked Shaanxi Road several times, all from this area. After crossing the river, the nearby villages and small towns had been completely destroyed, all the surviving people had fled, and the ferry became deathly silent.
Twenty thousand Jurchen cavalry, led by Wanyan Huonv, used thousands of large rafts to build a pontoon bridge. In just half a day, a two-foot-wide pontoon bridge with wooden planks on it had been built, with four pulleys on both sides. An iron chain secures the pontoon.
'Ta! Ta! Ta! Ta!' The Jurchen cavalry led the horses and galloped on the pontoon bridge. They were not worried. Yesterday afternoon, three thousand infantrymen rowed rafts across the river. There were no people within twenty miles of the north and south shores. There is hostility.
Wanyan Huonv's mission was to cross the Yellow River, establish a logistics camp at the mouth of Qingshui River, and attack Fushi County hundreds of miles away along the south bank of Qingshui River. Of course, Jin Bing also obtained information in advance. There were about 5,000 garrison guards in Fushi County. The main task of the army is to guard the oil wells.
Although there are 5,000 defenders, Fushi County's strategic position is extremely important. Fushi County must be captured before they can continue to march south to Guanzhong.
At this time, Wanyan Yinkeshu was leading an army of 100,000 people and a logistics team on the way to the east bank of the Yellow River, only two days away from the vanguard Wanyan Huonv's army.
Wanyan Huonv took the initiative to apply to be a vanguard. In fact, this was the day he had been looking forward to for a long time. His father Wanyan Loushi had been dead for many years, but his great revenge had still not been avenged. He suppressed this hatred in his heart and kept waiting. The opportunity to attack Chen Qing, and now, he finally waited for this day.
Wanyan Huonv wished she could fly to Guanzhong, kill all Chen Qing's family, and cut Chen Qing into pieces with her own hands. Of course, such a beautiful thing could only happen in his dreams.
The west bank of the Yellow River was deserted for thirty miles. Dozens of villages had been completely destroyed. The surviving people were moved to Guanzhong. The Jin soldiers were not worried about the Song army coming. They started building on the south bank of Qingshui, about five miles away from the Yellow River. Camp.
As soon as it got dark, Wan Yanhuo Nu led 10,000 cavalry and set off. They rushed west along the south bank of Qingshui, towards Fushi County, three hundred miles away.
Just two days before the Jin soldiers began to cross the river, Niu Gao led 5,000 troops and 10,000 camels to Fushi County. The 10,000 camels brought various military supplies needed to defend the city. On the night of unloading,
Ten thousand camels carried 20,000 barrels of kerosene back to Guanzhong, and Niugao began to deploy various defenses.
First, all the people outside the city were withdrawn into the city, leaving not a single livestock or a grain of food outside the city. Second, they began to deploy 300 small trebuchets and a thousand crossbows at the top of the city.
Ten thousand troops were divided into three shifts to defend the city day and night.
For several days, Niu Gao patrolled every corner of the city and plugged every loophole in the defense.
The streets were filled with thousands of tents, all of which were people who had moved in from outside the city, one tent for each household.
Niu Gao suddenly discovered that hundreds of tents had been set up at the foot of the city wall. He immediately said dissatisfied to Sima Wu Zhen: "How can tents be set up at the foot of the city wall? Enemy rockets came in and they were all set on fire. Move them all away."
Wu Zhen said quickly: "Bizhi will arrange for them to move out right now!"
"besides!"
Niu Gao pointed at the houses with his riding whip, "All the wooden houses that are a hundred steps away from the city wall will be demolished. Tell the people that the land does not belong to them. After the war is over, the government will help them rebuild."
Wu Zhen knew that there were not many wooden houses and the amount of demolition was not very large. They could be temporarily housed in tents. He asked again: "Where is the other house?"
"Other houses are not afraid of fire, so there is no need to demolish them for the time being. If the enemy's trebuchets come over, they will still have to be demolished."
"I understand, I will deal with it immediately."
Wu Zhen left in a hurry, and a cavalryman rushed to report, "An eagle message was sent from the Yellow River. The scouts found that 20,000 Jurchen cavalry had crossed the Yellow River."
Niu Gao nodded, "The enemy is coming!"
