Fengxiang Mansion was the base camp of the Jin Army in Shaanxi and also the headquarters of Wu Shu. Wang Xiaolie's occupation of Luoyang had a great influence on the Shaanxi Jin Army, and he has been discussing rescue. However, when Wu Shu came to Shaanxi, he fought against Wang Xiaolie, was surrounded in Mianchi, and was almost wiped out. He hesitated about saving Luoyang.
In early March, Wu Shu summoned Sa Lihe and Ba Lisu, the commanders of the Jin army in Shaanxi, to discuss the situation together.
In the government office, large pieces of meat were placed in front of the three people's tables, as well as large bowls filled with wine. There were beauties dancing below, and Wushu, Balisu and Salihe were enjoying themselves above. Big bowls of wine, big chunks of meat, BMWs and beauties, isn’t this the dream life.
After drinking a few bowls of wine, Ba Lisu said: "Liu Yu decided to use the prince Liu Lin as the commander and Li as the vanguard to send 50,000 troops to rescue Luoyang. He repeatedly requested that we send troops to help him. There was no other way, so Taiyuan Prefecture had no choice but to send troops. Three thousand, go south through Jinzhou and Zezhou——"
Wu Shu couldn't help but frown after hearing this: "Why not go to Longde Mansion? If you go to Jinzhou, you have to take a detour."
Ba Lisu said: "In Shenshan County in Jinzhou, Wang Xiaolie sent people to build many forts there. My brother's intention is to eliminate them by the way."
"That's it." Wu Shu nodded and said nothing more.
Sa Li shouted: "With three thousand soldiers, plus Liu Yu's fifty thousand soldiers and horses, I'm afraid we can't do anything to Luoyang. In the end, we have to rely on our rescue."
Wu Shu said: "Privy Master Zhang has tens of thousands of troops in front of us. It will be difficult for us to draw troops."
Ba Lisu said: "No matter how difficult it is, we must rescue Luoyang. If Luoyang is in the hands of the Song Dynasty, they can send troops to the west at any time. How can we be stable in Shaanxi? It is said that Wang Xiao hunted 100,000 soldiers and horses, and there are not enough troops. I'm afraid There’s nothing we can do about him.”
Sa Li laughed and said: "How many people in the Song Dynasty said that there were hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, and they were not defeated at the first touch? The year before last, the prince had only ten thousand people, spanning thousands of miles, who could stop you? When we reached Lingnan, the Song army was about to see the wind. drop!"
Pulling off the speed belt, he glared at Salihe with a displeased look on his face.
Let's talk about other things. After the battle the year before last, he was blocked by Wang Xiaolie at Jingmen when he came back. Ba Lisu was defeated and had to return via the Huaihe River. This was the biggest defeat in Ba Lisu's life, yet Sa Lisu always talked about it.
Wu Shu said: "Wang Xiaolie is different from others. His army is very difficult to deal with and should not be taken lightly. In the current situation, Wang Xiaolie has occupied Luoyang and has been preparing for two years in Lushi County, north of Guozhou. No reinforcements are available. Be careful, after passing Shaanzhou, the Song army will block the way back, and the situation will not be good."
Wushu, Salihe and Balisu represent the three forces of the Jin army in Shaanxi.
Wushu's army consisted of about 30,000 people and was the main force in attacking Sichuan and Shu. There were more than 20,000 people from Suzhou, belonging to Nianhan's West Route Army, and they cooperated with Wushu to attack Sichuan and Shu. Sa Lihe followed Youli Duo into Shaanxi, with about 10,000 people under his command, and now passes through Huanqing Road and Xihe Road.
Wang Xiaolie occupied Luoyang, and the West Route Army was most affected. Nianhan had always wanted to define Hedong Road as his own sphere of influence, but he was suffering from insufficient troops. Wanyan Yinshu can station ten thousand people in Taiyuan and control Hedong Road. The younger brother pulled more than 20,000 people into Shaanxi and cooperated with Wu Shu to enter Sichuan. We still have to defend the grassland forces in the north, and we have to defend Xixia in the west. Nianhan can't send any troops.
The rescue of Luoyang this time was actually based on the Nianhan family. Wanyan Yinshu in the east sent his son Wanyan Yuying to lead three thousand troops south to cooperate with Liu Yu's overwhelming army. To the east, Yin Shuke's younger brother Ba Lisuo advanced eastward to cooperate with the Shaanxi puppet army. The two armies advanced against each other and besieged Luoyang.
Wu Shu felt that there were not enough troops and did not agree to save Luoyang. Sa Li drank in the west. It had nothing to do with him and he hung up. He could only pull Lisu and ask Wushu many times, but Wushu refused to send troops. Wu Shu did not agree to go to Luoyang even if he pulled out Su's army.
Within the Kingdom of Jin, the Prince Clan and the Nianhan Clan are now competing fiercely. The Song army on the front line couldn't notice it, but they knew it very well in their hearts. The 30,000 people in Shaanxi are the direct descendants of Wu Shu. They are fighting for hegemony and cannot tolerate any mistakes. How can they save Luoyang? When he came to Shaanxi, Wu Shu suffered a loss there.
Ba Lisu's army was now out of Nianhan's control, and Wushu tried his best to win over them. However, Nianhan still had the final say, and Ba Lisu had to go.
In Lin'an Mansion, news came that Ba Lisu had led an army of 100,000 to attack Luoyang from Fengxiang Mansion, and the whole court was in an uproar. When Wang Xiaolie had just conquered Luoyang a few days ago, those who sent letters to each other asking Zhao Gou to move to Ezhou, and even asked to move the capital directly to Luoyang, fell silent.
During the incident, Cheng Yu arrived at the palace gate and met Quan Bangyan, the deputy envoy to the privy council. He said hurriedly: "Deputy envoy, we are going to attack Luoyang with an army of 100,000 people. Wang Xiaolie only has 100,000 people. How can we resist the enemy? The imperial court should send people to rescue!"
Quan Bangyan said: "Who can go to the rescue? Alas, let's talk about it after entering the palace!"
The two people entered the palace. When they arrived at the meeting hall, they saw the two prime ministers Lu Yihao and Qin Hui already sitting upright. Below are Meng Sui and Xi Yi who participated in the political affairs, as well as Li Guang, the Minister of Rites, and Li Mida, the Minister of Household Affairs. Not long after sitting down, Zhao Gou came out.
Everyone bowed politely, and Zhao Gou gave him a seat.
Lu Yihao said: "Today we received an urgent report from Shaanxi Road that the Jin army was withdrawing at a speed of tens of thousands. There are still tens of thousands of Zhe Keqiu and Zheng Jian's troops to attack Xijing. According to the Xuanfu Division, more than ten Jurchens and Han soldiers were withdrawn. Ten thousand, I am afraid that the king of Luoyang will not be able to resist the enemy at night."
Zhao Gou frowned: "Since the southern crossing, Xijing is the largest city that has been restored by this dynasty. Not long ago, Wang Xiao's hunting victory made the whole dynasty excited, and everyone thought that the restoration of the Central Plains was just around the corner. If it is lost here, it may lose the confidence of the people in the world."
Cheng Yu held the scepter in his hands with a somewhat excited attitude. Said: "Your Majesty, Wang Xiao has occupied the land west of Beijing and raised a large army without spending money or food from the court. Now that Xijing has been restored, he has done a great service to the country! The Jin army is attacking with heavy troops. Please send strong generals to support it!"
Qin Hui said: "Wang Xiao has occupied Xiangyang and Dengzhou, and there are thieves everywhere in Jinghu and Lianghuai in the middle. How can we rescue him?"
Cheng Yu said: "Privy Privy Zhang has announced that he will protect Sichuan and Shaanxi. He has heavy troops under his command, so he can rescue him!"
Lu Yihao sighed: "Fuping was defeated, and Shaanxi's elite soldiers were wiped out in one day. Now Zhang Jun and others are only defending Liangzhou, where can they send troops? Let us discuss this matter in detail. We are too anxious about it. .”
Cheng Yu had no choice but to sit back.
Zhao Goudao said: "The year before last, he had over 10,000 soldiers from Lisu. After crossing the river, he destroyed several areas in Jiangxi and Jinghu and poisoned dozens of states. He was really a powerful general. However, when he withdrew, he was hunted by Wang Xiao. Jingmen was blocked. The two fought once, but Wang Xiaolie had the upper hand, so he had to go back through the Lianghuai River. Now that they were fighting again, how could they know that Wang Xiaolie was not his opponent? It is said that Wang Xiaolie had an army of one hundred thousand. It’s not weaker than the pulling speed.”
Quan Bangyan held the scepter in his hand and said, "If we only pull out Lisu's 100,000-strong army, we can still think that Wang Xiaolie can get away with it. Now, in addition to pulling out Lisu, Liu Yu also has his son Liu Lin as the commander and attacks from the east with 50,000 troops." Xijing. With two opposing approaches, what can Wang Xiaolie do even if he has an army of 100,000?"
Li Guangdao: "Wang Xiao lied in the land of Xiang and Deng, and within a few years he raised an army of 100,000, and made countless contributions to the court. He is really a rare brave general. But there is Jinghu Lake between Xiang and Deng and the southeast. The closer There have been countless thieves over the years, and it is really not peaceful. At this time, Wang Xiaolie was reckless in the Northern Expedition. It would be much safer to wait until Jinghu is pacified and the court can provide support before proceeding to the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains."
Xi Yi said: "When I learned about Yingzhou two years ago, I met Wang Xiaolie. He was young, but he was mature, polite to others, and well behaved. His northern expedition to capture Xijing must have been carefully considered. He left Shaanxi in a hurry. Coming here, we must pass through Shaanzhou, and then pass through Mianchi, Xin'an and other places. These places are located in the mountains, and the terrain is extremely dangerous. If we defend well, it will not be easy to pass. In my opinion, Wang Xiaolie must have arranged his troops in these places. Heavy troops.”
After hearing Wei's words, no one spoke, and the palace became quiet for a while.
After a while, Lu Yihao said: "Now that Jinghu and Lianghuai have not been pacified, even if we want to support Xijing, we have nowhere to go. We can only wait and see if Wang Xiaolie can stop Balisu's attack. As long as we hold on Now, if we take possession of Xijing, there will be much more to be done in the Central Plains."
Cheng Yu said: "What if we can't hold on?"
Lu Yihao said: "Then Wang Xiaolie can only go back to Xiang and Deng and look for another opportunity. He has been in Xiang and Deng for many years, so nothing will happen there."
Everyone was speechless for a while. Yes, if Wang Xiaolie is defeated this time, he is afraid that he will not be able to defend Luoyang and will be invaded by Liu Yu and the Jin army into Dengzhou and Xiangyang, losing his fundamental position. If so, the loss this time will be too great. Wang Xiaolie now occupies most of the prefectures and counties on Jingxi Road and is very important to the Song Dynasty.
