Chapter 973: The Liangmang Army fought fiercely in Liuzhou, and the war in Laoye Mountain was in a stalemate
Laoye Mountain is not tall and steep, but just like a large mound with a gentle mountain. The north and south slopes are even enough for the cavalry to climb to the top. Even the extremely stupid and mediocre generals would feel that occupying Laoye Mountain and overlooking the battlefield is conducive to judging the situation and dispatching troops. Kou Jianghuai was one of the two famous masters of the Great Chu. Huang Songpu once became a meritorious general of the King of the Southern Court with his great military achievements. Therefore, the competition for the commanding heights of Laoyu Mountain was already fiercely launched before the two cavalry formally fought. Huang Songpu did not consume the selfishness of other elite troops, and decisively sent the remaining four hundred grass railings to get off the mountain, holding a shield and holding a knife. Green Grass Round is on the border of the Southern Dynasty and has always been as famous as the Crow Round under Dong Zhuo and the Black Fox Round of General Liu Gui. It ranks among the top three. Although it dismounts to fight, everyone has a strong body and amazing strength, and is good at fighting against each other in contact.
As expected, Liuzhou sent six hundred white horse crossbowmen, who also only held swords and shields, climbed the mountain almost at the same time.
Both sides entered the battlefield of Laoye Mountain almost at the same time, and began to compete for Laoye Mountain almost at the same time. This is probably the so-called coincidence of heaven.
Huang Songpu naturally would not think that four hundred grass railings could take down the top of Lao Wu Mountain. After this group of elite horse railings, six hundred dead soldiers were drawn from each department. There was a green grass railing that died on Laoye Mountain, and Wanyan Yinjiang and the other powerful generals of the high sect with the characters Yi did not hesitate at all. In the three battles, the old coach Huang Songpu performed completely opposite to Dong Zhuo in the first Liangmang battle. He had no measures to weaken the forces of other troops. He fought the death first and died first. After three arduous battles, the old general reported the military situation to His Majesty the Emperor and was very caring. He took charge of the crime twice and generously gave military achievements for the third time. If he had to gain a stubbornness under this premise, he would have to keep his strength blindly. Even Wanyan Yinjiang, who was gloomy, was unwilling to let go. Among all the six hundred dead soldiers, Wanyan Yinjiang sent three hundred Wanyan children.
As expected, small-scale contact wars had no room for maneuver brought by war horses, and people died faster, and four hundred grass railings quickly died. Looking up from the foot of the mountain, you can see the remaining figures of white horse crossbowmen on the top of the old woman. Six hundred dead morale in the Southern Dynasty entered the battlefield with great momentum. Liuzhou seemed to only use the white horse crossbowman as the first opportunity, and there was no intention to let all crossbowmans give their lives to Laoye Mountain. This is reasonable. The ownership of Lao Yu Mountain is of course important, but it is not crucial. It cannot be regarded as the situation of the victory or defeat on the battlefield. If Liangmang and the two sides are infantry wars with a slower rhythm than cavalry war on the Central Plains, Lao Yu Mountain’s gains and losses will be more meaningful. However, in cavalry warfare, especially in this large-scale cavalry war with a total of over 100,000 troops on both sides, and both sides are elites who are familiar with horseback combat, and fighter jets are often fleeting. In addition, Laoyu Mountain is not located in the center of the battlefield, but is just on the side that deviates from the battlefield. At that time, the side that loses Laoyu Mountain can take the initiative to evacuate the main battlefield from that Laoyu Mountain.The geographical advantage of Laoye Mountain is easy to observe the battlefield situation and will weaken accordingly. Therefore, both sides knew very well that the battle for Laoye Mountain was bloody and tragic, and to a large extent it was used to enhance the morale of the soldiers at the foot of the mountain.
Liuzhou reinforcements soon reached the top of Laoyu Mountain. Nearly a thousand people were monks of Lantu Mountain. They fought from outside Liangzhou Pass to the border of Liuzhou. Compared with Qingcao Lanzi, the mortal enemy on the battlefield, the losses were also considerable. Nearly 300 people died on the top of the mountain on the spot.
At the foot of the south slope of Laoye Mountain, which deviated from the main battlefield, Kou Jianghuai, as the leading general, was actually on the list. The military power of the 10,000 Liuzhou Qingshen Cavalry Army has been completely handed over to Qifu Longguan. As for the 20,000 Dragon Elephant Army, on the battlefield where the main force of Beimang was confronted, Xu Longxiang and Li Mofan each led 10,000 cavalry. Kou Jianghuai only talked about how to win this battle, how to deploy and generalize, but he would never interfere with the battle after the Dragon Elephant Army was put on the battlefield. The three thousand cavalry directly under the residence of the governor of Liuzhou did not appear here, but followed Qifu Longguan 10,000 cavalry and formed a central army, with stronger combat power from the left and right wings.
Huang Songpu did not go to the foot of the northern slope of Laoye Mountain as leisurely as Kou Jianghuai, but instead took over the central army in his own side. When the veteran general vaguely saw the monk soldiers of Lantu Mountain appearing on the top of the mountain, the old man with a serious face finally breathed a sigh of relief. In the third battle before, Xie Xiqian’s monks were not even as useless as a loser. It was a burden to drag him down, which allowed the general of the Southern Dynasty to win a great victory that even Taiping Ling did not expect. His military achievements shocked the grassland. But deep down in Huang Songpu’s heart, he was even more afraid of the monk soldiers from Lantuo Mountain who had only been accepted by Beiliang by winning the battle of Miyun Mountain Pass. Unlike many generals of the Southern Dynasty border army, who were as optimistic as the root cause of the loss of Liuzhou border army was that Kou Jianghuai was deliberately suppressing his peers who were famous all over the world. Huang Songpu firmly believed that this was a trap that Kou Jianghuai and Xie Xiqi had put on him. If he was accidentally tied, he would be tens of thousands of grassland men.
Wanyan Yinjiang, holding an iron spear, came over and asked loudly, “General, when will he charge?”
Huang Songpu glanced at the direction of Old Woman Mountain and said calmly, “Wait a little longer.”
Wanyan Yinjiang, who knew the inside story of the military aircraft, was a little puzzled. In addition to the four hundred green grass railings and six hundred dead soldiers of the Southern Dynasty, the old general also had a back-up, with a total of 1,500 soldiers of the border army. The importance of using these top elites to compete for Laoye Mountain is evident. However, even Wanyan Yinjiang, who is not as talented as his life experience, knows one thing, that his troops are probably still less. As the Beiliang border army has always been dead, he can lose the formation and be unable to die, and he must be more than 1,000 people to slightly ensure that he can eat the commanding heights of Laoye Mountain. An Old Woman Mountain is only worth this price, investing more troops and killing more people on the mountain, which is a loss-making deal for both Liangmang’s generals. The old coach Huang Songpu obviously did not intend to take down Laoye Mountain from the beginning, but it was more like a temptation. Wanyan Yinjiang knew after three major battlesWith a slight slight slightness, his arrogance had long been flattened, and he was convinced by the veteran general’s ability to use military force. Since Huang Songpu said he would wait a little longer, Wanyan Yinjiang, who had prospered and lost both the old general, had no nonsense.
The figures of monks emerged from the water in succession. These monks of Randuo Mountain with outstanding combat power were particularly eye-catching on the top of Laoye Mountain. One thousand,500 soldiers of the Northern Mang and Southern Dynasties died one after another.
In the end, there were still two hundred monks of Landa Mountain with increasingly scarlet and dazzling robes standing on the top of Old Woman Mountain, and the soldiers and horses in Liuzhou were constantly increasing, and they looked like they were as fierce as if they were determined to be the “old woman” of Old Woman Mountain.
Wanyan Yinjiang quietly stopped his horse beside the old coach, frowned, and died with all his last backs, which also means that Lao Yushan is considered a forbidden body of the Liuzhou cavalry.
Huang Songpu hesitated for a moment, turned around and asked, “General Wanyan, how many people do you think the monk soldiers from Rantuo Mountain have dispatched for the Old Woman Mountain?”
Wanyan Yinjiang subconsciously replied, “Looking at the battle, one thousand people have been killed in battle.”
Huang Songpu laughed and did not care about the answers of the Beimang Haojiao’s malice. He looked up at the clear sky, nodded, and said to himself, “No matter what, you can start fighting.”
Along the not-steep south slope of Lao Woman Mountain, the three young men walked slowly, namely Liuzhou General Kou Jianghuai, the only white horse crossbowman captain Li Hanlin, who personally brought three thousand reinforcements to the Liuzhou Bizhang.
Apart from the hundreds of monk soldiers waiting for battle on the top of the mountain, the three of them were behind the mountain, and the white horse crossbowmen who were resting on the spot, there were no soldiers at all.
Li Hanlin left the team first and moved the body of the person who died in battle down the mountain with Paoze.
Not far from Li Hanlin, there was always a tall man wearing ordinary border military uniform but never wearing a sword. What’s even more strange is that everyone turned a blind eye to this person.
Near the top of the mountain, Chen Liangxi asked softly: “General Kou, how did you guess that Huang Songpu would only use less than three thousand people to compete for Laoye Mountain”
Kou Jianghuai smiled: “I fought three battles with him. I roughly knew Huang Songpu’s temperament. He was a mature, steadfast and careful leader. He knew that Lao Yushan could not decide the battlefield trend. If it weren’t for the fact that Lantu Mountain monk soldiers were not sure of the traces of Lantu Mountain monk soldiers, he would not even send him to die. Now he finally saw that I was determined to use Lantu Mountain monk soldiers to take Lao Yushan down. I guess the old guy would be almost relieved. Because I gave the order of death from the beginning, I would never allow any Beimang dead soldier to appear on the top of this mountain. After seeing the bottom of the mountain to the south, he could live to convey military information, so that he had to trouble the follower master around Li Hanlin to secretly help, so that Huang Songpu could not guess how many monk soldiers had been stationed in the south slope.”
Finally, he walked to the top of the mountain, Chen Liangxi looked north.Fang, said bitterly: “Even if I know that there are actually only 1,500 monk soldiers in the south of Old Woman Mountain, I believe Huang Songpu will never guess where the main force of the monk soldiers will go. Because even Chen Liangxi, I still find it incredible.”
