Chapter 402
The Liang army took advantage of their familiarity with the local terrain and carefully designed an ambush to deal with the Han cavalry.
It must be said that this tactical choice was quite wise.
If the Han cavalry was allowed to gallop freely behind them, the Liang army's food supply would most likely be cut off.
For the millions of Liang army's main forces, once they lost their food supply, they would undoubtedly face a catastrophe.
From a strategic point of view, this idea was not wrong, but the Liang army once again underestimated the strength of the Zhenbei Army and the strength of the northern intelligence network.
When they tried to lure the Han cavalry with a grain transport team, the result was as expected, and everything seemed to be progressing steadily according to their plan.
"Order someone to tell the general that the infantry ambushed outside can move, and the Zhenbei cavalry must not run away."
The Liang army still had hundreds of thousands of troops cooperating in the periphery, and the general vowed that it was time to take action.
Not far from the main cavalry of the Liang army, Yang Zaixing began to mobilize troops.
"General, the enemy's ambush troops have already headed for the official road ahead."
The enemy's troops are divided and their attention is distracted. It is a good time.
"Action."
At a command, Yang Zaixing personally led the troops, rushed to the front, and rushed straight to the rear of the enemy's main force.
The horses were galloping, and the momentum was soaring. Tens of thousands of cavalry rushed into the enemy formation like killing gods, and slashed and killed wantonly.
The unprepared cavalry, the cavalry on standby, were far less combat-effective than the infantry. Caught off guard, the Liang cavalry was killed without any resistance.
"What's going on? Why did the Zhenbei Army come out from behind?"
"Quick, reorganize the troops, retreat."
The cavalry must not stand still and let the enemy charge, that would be self-destruction.
Now it is impossible to launch a counterattack. Not only has the opportunity been lost, but the situation on the scene does not allow it. The speed, distance, and command system are all lost. There is no other way except to retreat and regroup.
One side retreated, the other side chased, and gradually lost control.
"Order the army to disperse and kill the enemy with all their strength. They must return before nightfall. We will meet in Yongcheng."
Chasing the cavalry is really a very troublesome thing.
In order to destroy the Liang cavalry in one fell swoop and avoid any obstacles to future actions, Yang Zaixing was determined to decide the outcome through this battle and completely cripple the Liang cavalry.
A vigorous and large-scale pursuit began.
Because the speed of the cavalry was too fast, especially those Liang cavalry who were desperately fleeing, it made the pursuit of the Han cavalry extremely difficult, and Liang infantry would come out to block them from time to time along the way.
However, fortunately, the Han cavalry was elite enough, and the results achieved were still very ideal.
In a blink of an eye, it was the agreed time in advance. Yang Zaixing made a prompt decision and led the army back to Yongcheng quickly.
Yongcheng is a city currently temporarily controlled by the Zhenbei Army.
The pursuit of the Han cavalry went smoothly. Although there were still some fish that slipped through the net, the set goal was achieved.
"Okay, everyone is here, let's act immediately. The next target is Jucheng, which is an important grain storage base of the Liang army. It must be destroyed."
Speed is of the essence, and Yang Zaixing led the Han cavalry to continue the action.
In the next week, the Han cavalry destroyed three important material storage sites of Liang State.
At the same time, the Zhenbei Army cut off almost one-third of the Liang Army's grain route.
Now, the front line felt the difficulty of supply and became more anxious to fight a decisive battle.
But Guan Zhong didn't let them do what they wanted. He used the countless resources in his hands to fight a war of attrition, forcing the Liang army to have no choice but to attack desperately or send people to Beijing for help.
However, at this time, the Liang court had made up its mind that it must first deal with the barbarian cavalry, who were more harmful.
As for the front line of the South Courtyard, they can only rely on themselves to persist. The court has no other support except sending a group of experts to assist.
As for the destroyed grain route, they can only rely on the front-line army to restore it. What the court can do is to quickly mobilize grain from all over the country.
Liang State was completely mobilized, and the whole country fell into a tense atmosphere. Even ordinary people knew that this war was not going smoothly.
From the initial active attack, it has evolved into passive defense. Facing two powerful enemies, Liang State’s future is worrying.
In the direction of the Jin State, after fighting a few symbolic battles, there has been no large-scale battle.
I don’t know what the Jin State thinks. In short, a lot of troops have been sent to the front line, but they are not in a hurry to attack.
For the supply of these armies, the Jin State is also well prepared, and there is no crisis for the time being.
Xia State is not in a hurry either. Huo Guang and Qin Qiong, who are in charge here, and Yuan Chonghuan’s Guanning Iron Cavalry, are also enough.To cope with the war, but in general, the Jin Kingdom is strong, with sufficient troops and abundant logistical reserves, so this war is not easy to fight.
According to Long Tian's meaning, we should stabilize the situation here first and wait for the war between Jingguo and Liangguo to end, especially Liangguo. Once it ends, mobilize the barbarian cavalry, add Yang Zaixing, Zhang Liao and others, and take down the Jin Kingdom in one fell swoop.
Neither side wants to fight the war, and the small wars have not stopped. No one is convinced by each other, and they have to try their hands.
In this way, the direction of the Jin Kingdom is relatively stable.
At the same time, the same is true for the Chu Kingdom. In the absence of a large-scale invasion by the Xia Kingdom, the war is within the controllable range.
In short, the overall situation of the Xia Kingdom is developing well, and Long Tian, who is far away in the Liyang Dynasty, is about to start his own plan.
Xiao Kingdom, a country larger and stronger than the Xia Kingdom, is now the center of the storm between the Liyang Dynasty and the Tianwu Dynasty.
Almost half of the support from the Liyang Dynasty is in the Xiao Kingdom.
If Xiao State had not had something of its own, it would have been the first to be destroyed in this war.
But if the war was delayed, or if the support of the Liyang Dynasty was weak, Xiao State would surely be in trouble.
Ahead, as long as they passed a pass, they would reach the territory of Xiao State.
Long Tian and his party finally arrived here.
However, at Bai Qi's suggestion, Long Tian stopped and did not enter Xiao State for the time being.
"What does your Highness mean? Xiao State is ahead. Wouldn't it be better for us to go into the city and rest?"
Jia Ren came to test the intentions of the North without knowing it.
Along the way, Jia Ren was also abiding by the rules and hardly participated in anything, like a loyal servant.
"Eunuch Jia, don't worry, I have some ideas that need to be considered."
"You go and rest first, and I will naturally inform you when I make a decision."
Long Tian did not say much, this person was the military supervisor, the eyes of the Liyang Dynasty, and Long Tian would not tell him his plan.
Jia Ren also knew that Long Tian was on guard against him, which was reasonable, so he left directly.
As long as he stayed with Long Tian and monitored the actions of the Northern Border at any time, Jia Ren's mission would be completed.
After Jia Ren left, Long Tian summoned his capable generals and held a meeting.
