In this Chang'an offensive and defensive battle, many rich and powerful people died in the war.
So Zhang Yuejing was surprised when he made statistics. He felt that Tu Dan Hexi had planned and organized the elimination of famous and wealthy households in Chang'an City. He didn't know what his psychology was.
Do you still want to make a fortune before you die and take it underground after you die?
This is obviously impossible, it can only give the Liberation Army an advantage.
Not to mention that the huge amount of wealth they collected benefited the Liberation Army. These powerful and wealthy households occupied a large amount of land around Chang'an City, the entire Jingzhao Prefecture, and even the fertile wilderness of Guanzhong.
A rough calculation shows that the Jurchen and Han people who were killed by Tu Dan Hexi had more than one million acres of land in their names, widely distributed in the Guanzhong land.
This is just a rough statistic. After further detailed statistics, it is very likely to continue to rise.
These ownerless lands are naturally the spoils of the Liberation Army, and everything belonging to the dead dignitaries is also the spoils of the Liberation Army.
Good guy, is Tudan Hexi digging a hole for the Liberation Army or giving a big gift to the Liberation Army?
Zhang Yuejing's feelings became more and more complicated.
Zhang Yuejing's army marched smoothly and made great achievements. On the other side, the main force of the Qilu Corps led by Su Haisheng also advanced vigorously, attacking cities and villages all the way and making great achievements.
Su Haisheng couldn't care less about the fact that he conquered Daqing Pass with the help of Zhang Yuejing.
He still cares.
Therefore, after conquering Daqing Pass, Su Haisheng secretly competed with Zhang Yuejing. He felt that he could not lose face again after losing face once. He had to regain his position, so he decided to divide his troops into two groups, one led by himself, and the troops pointed directly at Qingyang. Mansion, all the way to Jiang Liangping, his favorite subordinate, and the troops were directed at Yan'an Mansion.
At that time, the army will join forces in Qingyang Mansion, and together they will sweep through the border states of Jinxia and achieve complete bordering with Xixia.
After setting the strategic goal, Su Haisheng led the army to advance forcefully. Wherever he passed, the Jin army collapsed. Jin officials all begged to surrender. Even those who escaped were courageous. Those who faced them head-on were really rare.
Only when Su Haisheng attacked Yijun County did he encounter firm resistance from the county magistrate Zhou Dewei.
He was determined not to surrender and led his troops to defend the county seat. Moreover, he seemed to have a certain prestige. Su Haisheng did not see any trouble within them for two days after attacking the city.
So Su Haisheng no longer held back and attacked the city with all his strength. All the troops pressed forward and bombed indiscriminately for two days and two nights. Finally, on the morning of the fifth day of the siege, Yijun County was captured.
Unwilling to give up, the county magistrate Zhou Dewei led his troops into street fighting and fought fiercely with the Liberation Army. By the afternoon, all the Jin army was annihilated. The leader Zhou Dewei killed all the guards and was captured.
Su Haisheng interrogated Zhou Dewei and asked him, as a Han Chinese, why he was so loyal to the Kingdom of Jin and obstructed the Liberation Army's actions to regain China.
Zhou Dewei straightened his chest proudly and angrily denounced Su Haisheng and others as traitors, saying that as an official of the Kingdom of Jin, he would rather die than do anything for thieves.
Recover China?
What qualifications do a bunch of mere traitors have to say they want to regain China?
Pooh!
His attitude made Su Haisheng very dissatisfied.
"You care more about the official position than the ethnic group. You would rather worship the Lord of the Yi and Di to be an official, but also to be a superior person. You just pay lip service to any righteousness. After all the talk, you are just doing it to be an official, right? "
Su Haisheng despised Zhou Dewei.
Zhou Dewei was immediately furious.
"Loyalty, filial piety, justice, how can you, the traitors, understand it! I have read the books of sages since I was a child, and everything I do is to govern the world, appease the people, and benefit the people. Such sentiments are beyond the reach of your traitors. What do thieves know?”
"how old are you?"
"forty!"
"Well, you were born in the Song Dynasty. As a Song person, you are an official of the Jin Kingdom. Your loyalty, filial piety and justice seem to be a bit unworthy of your reputation, right?"
Zhou Dewei was stunned, blinked, and said angrily: "You traitors, are you worthy of talking about loyalty, filial piety, and justice?"
"I'm a traitor, so what? At least I don't talk about loyalty, filial piety and justice. What about you? As a Song Dynasty person, you are a Jin official. You talk about benevolence, justice and morality, and your heart is about glory and wealth. You are so hypocritical, but you still have face here. Are you mocking me? You are really the most powerful person in the world!"
"I……"
"What are you doing? I've seen people like you a lot. You talk about loyalty, filial piety and justice, and you say more nice things than anyone else. But what's the reality? You live in secret, take bribes and pervert the law, oppress the people, and destroy families and families!"
Su Haisheng said angrily: "The shamelessness of superior people is evident in you! It's disgusting! Come on, drag me down and behead me in public!"
Zhou Dewei glared and roared that he had never done anything. He was an honest official and an upright person for the people. He had never done anything corrupt and perverted the law. Su Haisheng was trying to taint his innocence out of thin air.
But so what?
Could he still give up his status as a superior person?
So he died anyway, decapitated with a knife, and died under the gaze of the soldiers who gathered around him.
The superior Zhou Dewei died like this.
However, there are many, many superior people like him, so Su Haisheng, like Su Yonglin, will not stop moving forward.
Su Haisheng continued to lead his army to attack Qingyang Mansion, advancing rapidly all the way, and never encountered any decent resistance again.
At the same time, Qingyang Prefecture's Wuyan Puha Nu also felt the real danger.
In order to deal with the threat of Xixia on the border, Tu Dan Hexi arranged for Qingyang Prefecture, Yan'an Prefecture and Zhenrong Prefecture to station troops in three areas to prepare for war during his lifetime. Therefore, these three areas each have 10,000 border defense troops, and their combat effectiveness is quite good. Against Xixia The army is worthy of a fight.
But that was when they were internally stable and they only had to face the invasion of the Xixia army. Now that the Liberation Army has hit them behind, how can they still maintain stability?
This is a situation of being attacked from both sides!
Wuyanpuha Nu didn't know what the situation was like in Yan'an Prefecture and Zhenrong Prefecture. He only knew that the situation on his side was very bad.
The people are panicked and the military morale is wavering, but the Liberation Army is powerful and the troops are at their peak. According to the intelligence from the sentry, the Liberation Army has occupied Anding County and Xiangle County, and is about to head towards Qingyang Mansion.
The defenses of Tongguan and Daqingguan have obviously failed. The Liberation Army is good at field warfare. Once a large number of people enter the pass, it will inevitably become a sweeping force and cannot be stopped by tens of thousands of troops.
And he only has 10,000 regular troops in his hands. Even if all the contract soldiers are included, the number is just over 30,000, which is not enough to contain the offensive of the Liberation Army.
Even Tongguan and Daqingguan can be broken through. Is there anything that the Liberation Army cannot do?
Wuyan Puha Nu felt a sense of fear from the bottom of his heart.
After thinking about it, although he still didn't know the news about the fall of Chang'an and the death of Tu Dan Hexi, he felt that he couldn't wait to die without moving, so he made a decision - run.
Three days before Su Haisheng's vanguard arrived in Anhua County, the capital of Qingyang Prefecture, Wuyan Puhainu led more than 10,000 Nuzhen troops under his command to retreat to Zhenrong Prefecture, preparing to join Zhenrong Prefecture's defense envoy Pu Lihei to join him. If the troops are in one place, there will be more troops and security will be more guaranteed.
As for the way out...
Let’s talk about it then!
Wuyan Puha Nu greased the soles of his feet and fled with the same timid army. When Su Haisheng arrived at Qingyang Mansion, he encountered no resistance at all, so the local Han officials and the local garrison all surrendered, very well-behaved.
On the other hand, Jiang Liangping encountered strong resistance from Yan'an Prefect Gao Jingshan in Yan'an Prefecture, and the two sides fought with real swords and guns in Lepan Town.
Gao Jingshan gathered a main force of 10,000 people and 20,000 cannon fodder soldiers who had been forcibly recruited and set up a posture, allowing the regular army to drive the cannon fodder in front and fight the Liberation Army desperately, intending to wait until the cannon fodder exhausted the Liberation Army's physical strength. Then dispatch the main force to defeat the Liberation Army.
Jiang Liangping and Su Haisheng divided their forces and came to capture Yan'an Prefecture with 20,000 troops. The number of troops was not as large as that of Gao Jingshan, but he was not worried at all.
Because when he stood on the hill and watched the Jin army's formation with a telescope, he found that most of the Jin army did not wear complete armor.
Some only wore body armor, some only wore a helmet, some only had a breastplate, and some had nothing at all and wore a pair of marching combat boots. The fully armored troops were mainly located behind the Jin Army's formation, and there were not many of them. Only about one-third to one-quarter of the entire Jin Army.
There are also quite a few cavalry among them.
The infantrymen also had a variety of weapons. In addition to swords and guns, there were actually quite a few wooden sticks with sharpened heads.
After observing this scene, Jiang Liangping understood.
This Jin army, this Jin army that continues to resist in despair, will inevitably be destroyed.
