Koto.
The Wuxing Zhou family was worthy of being the martial sect of Jiangdong. Once they decided to raise an army, they were much more decisive than the Wang family. They selected 5,000 Jiangdong warriors as the vanguard, and Zi led more than 17,000 people as the rear army, all the way north.
They successively defeated Wang Yan, Xun Ji and other northern gentry tribes who came to intercept.
The new and old grudges of the gentry in the north and south were combined, and more and more people responded. The rebel army became stronger and had the potential to sweep across Jiangdong.
However, the northern nobles are also aware of the crisis. After all, this group of people is flying the banner of the Qingjun side. If they really attack Jiankang, they have the final say on who to clean up?
If defeated by Liang Guo, the most he can do is kowtow to another person, but if he is defeated by the powerful hands of Jiangdong, the end will be miserable.
Huan Wen's Jingzhou soldiers committed many crimes, and they were all blamed on "Beiqin".
Instead, the major forces in Jiankang and Huan Wen put aside their prejudices and worked together to deal with the local powerful.
The powerful people in Jiangdong are supported by the people in Jiangdong, while the nobles in the north are supported by the refugees in Jiangbei.
The two forces are not weak, and the battle between the north and the south is inextricable for a while.
The war was as brutal as that in the north.
Xie An, dressed in Confucian armor, was surrounded by officers and soldiers of the Beifu Army. He climbed up and looked at the enemy camp. He saw numerous flags in the enemy camp, neat armor, long swords like a forest, and a rather impressive military appearance.
"It's a pity that the Zhou family cannot be used by the imperial court. If the two parties work together, they can withstand the beam and occupy half of the southeast wall." Xie An sighed.
Nephew Xie Yun said: "It was unwise for the imperial court to treat the Zhou family poorly back then."
"With the situation back then, the Zhou family was firmly established in the south of the Yangtze River, with tens of thousands of tigers and wolves under their command. How could the imperial court not be afraid of them?" Xie An naturally sat on the side of the Jin room.
Xie Yun laughed twice and said, "The thieves are quite powerful and the Liang army is heavily armed. Even if we pass this level, it will not be easy for the Liang Kingdom. I'd better make arrangements earlier."
No one is optimistic about Huan Wen.
The nobles not only had to fight Jiang Donghao, but also had to fight Huan Wen internally.
To the north, the Liang Kingdom was at its peak, the outcome was very clear, and the signs of unification of the world were gradually revealed.
The Xie family was the first to make arrangements.
A few years ago, he sent Xie Daoyun to the Liang Kingdom and gave birth to a prince...
It can be regarded as a marriage between the two parties. Of course, these are the traditional methods of the gentry.
Xie An glanced around and saw that they were all generals of the Xie family. His expression softened and he said calmly: "If you want to welcome distinguished guests, you must first clean the house."
Xie Yun was stunned for a moment, and then he understood the implication, "Thank you, uncle."
The uncle and nephew stopped talking and concentrated on observing the enemy camp.
From south to north, we were extremely careful and refused to let go of any detail.
He also asked Xun Ji to lead his army to test it.
An army of nobles came out and were attacked by three powerful forces. Xun Ji was defeated again and retreated hastily.
The powerful troops showed off their power in front of the camp, and they were all extremely excited, gnashing their teeth and cursing in front of the camp.
"Return." Xie An's expression remained unchanged.
However, Xie Yun could see a hint of joy on his face, "Does uncle have a way to defeat the enemy?"
Xie An said: "There is a saying in the art of war. The master cannot be angry and raise an army, and the general cannot be angry and go to war. The rebel army comes with anger, but it can be defeated by arrogant tactics!"
"Arrogant soldier's plan?" Xie Yun fell into thinking.
"Send the order, the entire army abandons this camp and retreats thirty miles, and the Beifu army cuts off the rear." Even though he gave the order, Xie An was still slow and calm, without the slightest murderous intention.
By retreating, we can get closer to Jiankang and away from Kuaiji, the home base of the powerful army.
As soon as the military order was given, all the troops dispersed like birds and beasts. Only the Beifu army was in order and set fire to the camp.
The powerful army immediately attacked. Although there were many troops, they fought independently. The Beifu army fought and retreated, and the powerful army did not take much advantage.
I quit the first time, and there were the second and third times.
The powerful army has won three games in a row, and its morale is getting stronger.
However, their arrogance is getting stronger and stronger, and they all have the intention of despising the gentry army.
"The hostility has become arrogant. My nephew is willing to lead an army and raid the enemy camp. We will definitely win a complete victory!" Seeing that the heat was almost over, Xie Yun decided to fight.
Xie An shook his head, "Wu Hui's wealthy family has been inherited for hundreds of years. They all know the art of war. They must be prepared and cannot attack."
"But the King of Chu sent someone yesterday to reprimand us for our incompetence in fighting."
"The general will be outside, and military orders will not be obeyed. Don't worry, give the order and then retreat."
"If we retreat further... we will reach Xuancheng."
Xuancheng is the southern gate of Jiankang.
"Retreat." Xie An only said one word, his tone was light but full of momentum.
The army retreated again, and some nobles fled with their tribes. The nobles' army became less and less, with only 6,000 Beifu troops closely following them.
Most of the Beifu troops were refugees from the north, living in the north of the Yangtze River, and most of their families were in Guangling. If Jiankang fell, Guangling would not be able to escape.
Seeing that Xuancheng was approaching, the gentry army was getting smaller and smaller. Finally, a powerful army couldn't hold it back anymore, broke away from the majority and rushed forward.
Xie An immediately summoned the generals of the Beifu Army and pointed to the south, "My sons, make great achievements today!"
"Fight, fight, fight!"
The Beifu soldiers raised their swords and spears, their fighting spirit rising like a raging flame.
Later, Xie Yun, Xie Wang, Xie Chong and other Xie family nephews led the Beifu army to suddenly turn around and face the enemy with great momentum.
If Jiangdong still has the strength to fight a war, it is definitely not Huan Wen's Jingzhou soldiers, but the Beifu army. The Jingzhou soldiers have become losers, their military discipline is lax, and their combat effectiveness continues to decline.
The Beifu army is rising rapidly. Amid internal and external troubles, everyone is desperate to protect their families and their own lives.
Everyone knows the consequences of Jiangdong's powerful attack on Jiankang.
On the battlefield, it seemed as if a strong wind was sweeping from north to south.
The powerful army underestimated the enemy and advanced rashly, resulting in a temporary emptiness of troops. Xie An had been waiting for this opportunity for so long.
"Kill!" On the battlefield, the Beifu army roared and rushed towards the enemy camp.
Xie An found a war horse and looked at it. On the surface, he looked calm and relaxed, but in fact, he was a little worried in his heart.
The Beifu Army cannot afford to lose this battle.
But what you are afraid of on the battlefield is what you are afraid of. The situation on the battlefield was originally one-sided and the enemy army was about to collapse soon. However, unexpectedly, a large army came from the east and west to outflank them.
"Trap!" Xie An was worried, and a cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
He had a arrogant strategy, and the enemy was not mediocre. He deliberately sent an army to break away from the majority of the army, attracting the Beifu Army to counterattack, and then outflanked the main force of the Beifu Army from the east and west, and surrounded and annihilated the main force of the Beifu Army.
With the Beifu Army gone, the Xie family will lose their right to speak, both in Jiankang and in Luoyang in the future.
Faced with heavy enemy siege, the Beifu army fought bravely and resisted the siege of powerful troops with weak troops.
Time passed by, and the Beifu army continued to fall.
The outcome is basically determined.
"The thieves' army is powerful, I order you to retreat..." the guard knelt on the ground and begged.
Xie Anxin felt like a knife was being twisted, and lost his usual composure. He closed his eyes and slowly turned his horse around.
But at this moment, the roar of horse hooves was suddenly heard in the northwest.
There are not many troops in Jiangdong territory. They were obtained in exchange for food when they formed an alliance with Di Qin. One army is in the hands of Xie Xuan, and the other is in the hands of the fierce general Huan Shiqian.
"Reinforcements!" Xie An suddenly opened his eyes and saw smoke and dust rising to the northwest. A soldier carrying a long spear rushed to the front, and a rider behind him held a banner with the word "Huan".
Since the battlefield is close to Jiankang, Huan Wen cannot remain indifferent. If Xie An loses, there is still a way to retreat. If Huan Wen loses, he will die.
In dealing with the powerful Jiangdong, the interests of both sides are consistent...
