Regarding the situation in Liaodong, Guo Ning is an outsider. Because he is on the outside, he can clearly judge the trends of various military forces in the Northeast, and then take advantage of the gaps to advance and retreat freely. In his eyes, Pu Xianwan
A slave is a piece of fat meat, and the forces of the Khitan and Liao kingdoms, the forces of the Jin army in Beijing, and even the Mongolian army are all diners on the table one after another.
But in fact, in the eyes of the Mongols, the Jin army staying in Xianping Prefecture at this time was not just a guest along the way.
From the perspective of the Mongolian army, Pu Xianwannu is so arrogant that a mere dog dares to deceive his master with cunning. This is an unforgivable crime. In this case, this piece of fat should be allowed to work. And since Brother Yeluliu
If they claim to be loyal, then use the blood of the Khitans to prove their loyalty.
But these two parties, after all, are the results of the Mongols' long-term operation in the Jinyuan hinterland. They invested them all at once, and they were only used to attract the Jin army who went to Huining Mansion in Beijing? Even if He Shi, the defense envoy of Zhaozhou, was added
Liede's troops were still not cost-effective. The investment from these two parties should at least wipe out the Jin army in Liaodong.
Among them, Marshal Wanyan Chengyu, the right governor who was entrenched in Dading Prefecture in Beijing and had tens of thousands of troops, was isolated from the battlefield by the Khitan and Liao Kingdoms, so let’s not care about it for the time being; Wanyan Tiege, the commander of the Northeast Rebellion, had been defeated and died, and there was no need to fight again.
After all, there is only one thorn in the side, which is the command of Shi Liehuanduan, the governor of Fuzhou, who is known for his proficiency in warfare.
Heshi Liehuanduan and Guo Ning's action to seize Xianping Mansion was violent and secretive. Until this time, Pu Xianwannu's flags were still standing everywhere in the city, and there was no big announcement. Therefore, at first, only Pu Xianwannu, the host, could
I understand that my hometown has been raided.
But now that the Mongolian army has entered the northeast, and with their ability to detect cavalry in all directions, soldiers and horses are constantly entering Xianping Prefecture from the direction of Fuzhou. Is it possible to hide this from their eyes and ears?
What is the relationship between Heshi Liehuanduan and Pu Xianwannu, the Mongols probably don't care. Anyway, Pu Xianwannu is very cunning, and the Mongolians will not be surprised by anything he does.
On the contrary, they will be happy.
Since Fuzhou's soldiers and horses are in Xianping Prefecture, they will enter the battlefield sooner or later. Whether they are on the side of Pu Xianwannu, or on the side of Aruzhen, the female general who went to Beijing, or even if they are on the side of the Khitans, it doesn't matter.
In the end, the Mongols will devour all parties on this battlefield.
After this, from now on, if they want to pacify Liaodong, they will no longer have the economic and political army of the Jin Kingdom as an opponent. Even though there are thousands of tribesmen in the white mountains and black waters, the Mongols will slowly clear up, and there will always be
One day to conquer them all.
Therefore, the Mongolian army, like Guo Ning, has been waiting. What they are waiting for is the third group of eaters who should appear. They are Fuzhou Heshi Liehuanduan's troops. They may appear on this battlefield, the last golden army in Liaodong.
military.
Guo Ning suddenly realized that all the generals present were veteran generals, and he immediately understood.
Before Guo Ning turned around to look at him, Heshi Liehuanduan's face turned red and his neck tightened: "I will order the troops to leave the city!"
Guo Ning didn't say much and just nodded slightly: "After leaving the city, there is no need to hesitate and attack the Khitan army fiercely."
After a while, the drums in Xianping Mansion rumbled.
The north city gate slowly opened, and dozens of light riders wearing Jurchen round-collared robes, without armor and carrying simple weapons came out first. Once they left the city, they immediately dispersed deep into the hills, and the small flag behind them waved twice.
Out of sight.
Next, more than 300 cavalrymen came out of the city, all of them were fully equipped with belts, carrying swords, guns, bows and arrows. They rushed out of the city and immediately formed a fan-shaped formation as a cover.
After that, there is an infantry team of nearly 3,000 people. The infantry is divided into three teams, front, middle and rear. The first soldier of each team holds the flag high and files out to the beat of the drum.
As each group left the city, they immediately formed a horizontal formation and moved forward slowly. As each formation moved forward, it also made space for the following formation.
The middle group was the largest and had the largest number of armored elites, with more than a hundred cavalry covering the left and right sides. A five-color flag was held high in the middle of the group, representing the Meng'an Mouke Army from Fuzhou.
The general under the flag is none other than He Shi Liehuanduan. Behind him is a carriage carrying drums and trumpets.
Following Heshi Liehuan's order, the drums were rumbling and the horns were melodious. The soldiers and horses moved forward quickly with sonorous footsteps and rushed straight into the depths of Huanglonggang.
On the top of the city, Guo Ning and others will be watching from a distance.
Seeing the men and horses walking away, Han Xuan praised: "This Lieutenant Heshi is very good at running the army."
Guo Ning nodded.
At this time, Heshi Liehuanduan brought more than 3,000 soldiers and horses out of the city. The main force was the 2,000 Fuzhou prisoners held by Pu Xianwannu that day. The other more than 1,000 were from the Xianping Prefecture surrender troops who had gathered in the past few days.
.
The Fuzhou Army fell into a trap and were captured that day, and all the officers had been killed by Pu Xianwannu. Once these experienced grassroots officers were lost, it was almost impossible to replace them immediately, but He Shi Liehuanduan was promoted to ordinary people in just a few days.
The army soldiers reorganized the general and school system and brought all the surrendered troops of Hampyeong Prefecture under their command.
Seeing the posture of this army dispatching troops, it is like a great army that has fought a hundred battles, and there is no loose attitude at all. This is easy to say, but it is actually very difficult. At least, Guo Ning cannot do it. He has to have someone like He Shi Liehuanduan who knows our military situation well.
And he was a very prestigious general in Liaodong.
Li Ting crossed his arms over his chest and sneered: "With Heshi Liehuan gone, the Mongols will no longer be able to contain themselves, right? I never thought that I, Li Erlang, would one day fight side by side with the imperial troops."
Li Ting was right. Guo Ning himself never thought that he would fight side by side with the Jurchens in Liaodong, but this was a temporary alliance formed to deal with the Mongolian army.
Whether this alliance will continue in the future depends on whether Guo Ning's strength can grow as expected.
The powerful warlords in the northeastern mainland have gradually recognized the weakness of the Jin Dynasty. As the pressure from the Mongols increases, they will take the initiative to find a way out. As long as the Ding Navy continues to grow stronger, these warlords will
Think clearly about who you can rely on.
At this time, the officers and soldiers of Dinghai Navy gathered from various military camps to the square behind the city gate, and prepared for the fight in an orderly manner.
Groups of cavalry, archers, axemen, and spearmen gathered in response to the steady and vigorous orders of the officers. When they moved around, the blades of the armor collided intensively, making a roar like a sea wave.
Some archers took the time to sharpen their arrowheads on the masonry on the ground, making a hoarse and sharp friction sound; some soldiers were whispering to each other, occasionally letting out bursts of laughter; even the war horses could feel the special atmosphere in the air.
, some war horses neighed with joy, while others snorted uneasily, probably pulled in temporarily to make up for the numbers.
Guo Ning is very accustomed to this dense and noisy sound. He has heard it too much since he was a child.
Just as he was about to say something, there was a rapid sound of hooves at the bottom of the city. It was the scouts that Ni Yi had sent before turning back.
The scouts along the way were dusty, and they were all two horses. They were the team of capable knights assigned by Guo Ning to scout all the way to Guang Ning Mansion.
The leading knight hurried to the top of the city and said a few words to Guo Ning with a strange look on his face.
Guo Ning was slightly startled and laughed.
He totally got it.
He leaned back slightly, leaned against the parapet, and stretched, feeling that the vague anxiety he had felt in the past few days was slowly relaxing at this time.
He said: "Don't worry, the Mongolian army's power on the battlefield here is very limited."
Li Ting asked: "How can you see it?"
"The Golden Inland, to us, is the source of war horses and many materials, the source of commercial interests, and the strong support for Shandong to accumulate grain and build high walls. But to the Mongols, the output of the White Mountains and Black Waters is
What’s the essential difference between grasslands?”
The generals were thoughtful, and Guo Ning continued: "By attacking the northeastern hinterland, the Mongolian army cannot gain any considerable benefits. For the Mongols, the real attraction is always the rich Central Plains. So... they
The power invested here is limited, and precisely because of its limited power, it relies so much on the power of servants and even uses the bloodshed and sacrifice of the Khitan people as bait."
Guo Ning closed his eyes slightly and listened.
He said slowly: "Don't worry, after this battle, the Mongols will get what they want, and we will get what we want."
He heard the dull sound of horse hooves getting louder, he heard birds flying in the hills and valleys, and he heard the distinctive high or low roars of the Mongolian army before going into battle.
"The fourth group of diners is here! Everyone, let's go have a fight!"
