273 The First Battle of Dingbei City and the Great General of Soldiers and Horses(1/3)
The next day.
Morning light.
Less than twenty-four hours after the fall of Dingbeicheng.
The Zhenbei army, commanded by the King of Zhenbei, had already appeared outside the city.
This kind of marching speed is unique in the world.
Even the bloodstains of the tragic and fierce battle on Dingbei City the night before can still be clearly seen now.
The army in Zhenbei was about to set up camp on the spot and encircle the city.
What was unexpected was that the Northern Xinjiang army suddenly came out of the city to fight.
But it is true.
The people of Northern Xinjiang are not good at defending the city, and they have never had the concept of defense in their minds.
They are confident in their nation on horseback.
They are arrogant that any enemy in the world will be wiped out under the iron hooves of their galloping horses.
It is indeed not a good idea to let a large number of Northern Xinjiang warriors dismount and defend the city.
Take the initiative to attack while the enemy is not yet firmly established.
It can also be regarded as a strategy that is very suitable for the Huqi in Northern Xinjiang.
This is naturally a dream for the Zhenbei Army.
In just a few days, several border fortresses in the north have changed owners and fallen into the hands of the Jin Kingdom in Northern Xinjiang.
There is already a long and smooth road between the Jin army and Dingbeicheng.
If the siege of the city really begins, perhaps the Zhenbei Army will still need to face the enemy's constant arrival of large amounts of backup.
Leaving everything to this city to fight is a good thing to cut through the mess quickly.
…
…
The siege expected by the senior generals of the Zhenbei Army did not begin.
With the sound of the trumpet in Northern Xinjiang, the Jin army had already launched its first rapid attack.
The Zhenbei Army also immediately formed a formation to fight back.
A fierce and fierce battle broke out between the two sides.
In the midst of a fierce battle.
Various generals from the two armies took turns taking part in the battle.
Fierce fighting continued.
The king of Zhenbei rode on horseback and stood under the banner of the Chinese army. He saw Wanyan Lingxu defeating many generals of the Zhenbei army.
King Zhenbei really did not expect that the Queen Mother in front of him was really as invincible as the legendary female war goddess.
Obviously, I underestimated the other party.
But, similarly, the other party also underestimated himself.
When King Zhenbei picked up his spear and decided to take action, the situation on the battlefield became clear instantly.
Hu generals were defeated and died one after another.
The Jin army couldn't avoid it.
Wanyan Lingxu had no intention of fighting, and she quickly ordered the withdrawal.
Dingbeicheng was recaptured by the Zhenbei Army.
This is a good thing.
But when Zhenbei's army entered the city, it was discovered that most of the archery towers on the walls of Dingbei City had been destroyed.
Some city walls even suffered huge collapses that were difficult to repair in a short period of time.
The ordnance and grain stores in the city's warehouses were all looted.
There was no trace of burning, it had been completely emptied.
Very strange.
The space for receiving the ring is extremely limited.
Other mechanisms related to the space system will definitely not be able to take away so many things.
King Zhenbei was thinking, how did Wanyan Lingxu take away so many things in a short period of time?
I couldn't think of an answer at the moment.
However, Dingbeicheng cannot be discarded casually.
Otherwise, a large number of territories and fortresses outside Yanmen Pass will lose their strategic significance.
King Zhenbei ordered an inspection of the city to be on guard against possible secret passages left by the enemy.
At the same time, orders were given to repair the city wall and arrow tower.
But the army has not yet had time to officially start repairing the city wall.
It's just that a sentry rider suddenly came to report——
"All armies from the Jin Kingdom in Northern Xinjiang are heading towards Dingbeicheng."
The generals were suddenly stunned.
The King of Zhenbei smiled upon hearing this.
He seemed to understand Wanyan Lingxu's intention...
It seems that the previous analysis of the generals in the army is correct - the place for the decisive battle is right here in Dingbeicheng!
King Zhenbei thought.
He actually made preparations before coming.
The leading generals of the Zhenbei army had received the news as early as the day before yesterday and were heading towards Dingbei City.
The unknown Dingbeicheng is destined to be recorded in the annals of history in the next few days.
…
Northern battlefield.
The two sides in the North began to gradually expand their war strength around Dingbeicheng.
A decisive battle begins.
In the land west of Hexi, Yu Wenhu recovered a lot of lost territory. He became somewhat complacent and even prepared to capture and kill Wanyan Lie.
As for Wanyan Lie, he thought that Jiao Bing's plan was completed and was also preparing to deal with Yu Wenhu.
Southern battlefield.
The allied forces of the vassal kings successively captured the city and fell into the ground. The Dingnan Army and the Pingxi Army have joined forces in Nanzhou. There is only the last barrier to eliminate the state from Jinling.
The situation is extremely critical.
Great work.
Zhao Lingfeng, the prince of the prison country, invited Xiao Tianzuo to come out for the second time.
This time, Zhao Lingfeng came to visit with the seal of the general, a large number of soldiers and horses, and a large sum of money.
Xiao Tianzuo's house is just a thatched house in the mountains. Although it is extremely simple, it does have a mud yard and a homemade fence.
The person who opened the door for Prince Zhao Lingfeng was Xiao Tianzuo's wife.
A rather beautiful and charming woman, nearly middle-aged, dressed simply.
Thinking about it, it must be Mu Ying, the wife of the great general who was a world-famous female general at that time.
This time, faced with Zhao Lingfeng's request to come out, Xiao Tianzuo still refused.
He did not accept any gifts brought by Zhao Lingfeng, and asked his wife Mu Ying to see off the guests, thus "driving" them out in disguise.
Zhao Lingfeng had a headache.
What troubled him even more was the frequent reports of defeats coming from the southern battlefield.
The situation in the north is pretty optimistic now.
But the troops of the southern vassal kings were already heading straight towards Jinling.
However, Zhao Lingfeng was not discouraged.
He is already prepared to visit this place three times.
When Zhao Lingfeng came out of the field and was about to leave, Mu Ying found him privately.
