Xiangfan Historical war stories
The Battle of Xiangyang In the 10th year of Jiading in the Southern Song Dynasty (the first year of Jin Xingding, 12 17), in April, during the Song-Jin War, Song Jun defeated the Jin army in Xiangyang (now Xiangfan, Hubei).

In April of the second year of Shaoxing, Liu Yu, the pseudo-ruler of Qi supported by Jin Dynasty, moved the capital from Daming Mansion (now Daming South, Hebei Province) to Tokyo (now Kaifeng, Henan Province), recruited 65,438+more than 10,000 rural soldiers, and organized them into 12 army, which was stationed along the Yellow River and Huaihe River, Shaanxi, Shandong and other regions to get a glimpse of the Southern Song Dynasty. In addition, in its ruling area, exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes, severe punishment and harsh laws, the people are miserable and complain. Song Ting left servants to shoot Lv Yihao to build a plan, and Song Gaozong took the opportunity to start the Northern Expedition and recover the lost land in the Central Plains.

In December, the satrap of Xiangyang in Song Dynasty joined the satrap of Henan, Meng, Ru, and sent troops to crusade against the northern puppet troops. Hengli and Zhai Congjun were not regular teams in the Southern Song Dynasty, lacking armor and food, and their equipment was extremely poor. Due to the uprising and rebellion of commanders from all over the Puppet Manchuria, they joined the ranks of Song Jun's Northern Expedition, among which Niu Hao, Ni Peng and Zhao Qi defected to Hengli. Dong Xian, Zhang Ni, Dong Zhen and other troops defected to Zhacong, which made Song Jun's Northern Expedition more and more powerful.

Li Hengjun successively recovered Ruzhou, Yingchangfu, Tang Zhou and Xinyang Army (now Ruzhou, Xuchang, Tanghe and Xinyang in Henan); Zhai Yanjun captured the vast area from Zhengzhou in the east to Jingzhao (now Xi 'an) in the west, and executed Yin Mengbangxiong in the south of the pseudo-Qihe River, forming a situation of attacking Tokyo in the west and Tokyo in the south. In March of the following year, Liu Yu, the pseudo-ruler of Qi, sent an envoy to Qi for help in order to save the defeat. Wan Yan Han Zong, deputy marshal of Jinzuo, ordered Marshal Wan Yan Zongbi, the governor of Zuodu, to lead reinforcements, and beat back tens of thousands of troops of the puppet army general Li Cheng, and defeated Hengli and other troops in Yangchigang near Tokyo.

Taking advantage of the emptiness in the Song area, Li Cheng was ordered to lead the army south. To 10, successively captured Dengzhou (now Henan), Suizhou (now Hubei), Xiangyang, Yunzhou (now Zhongxiang, Hubei) and other places. Hengli, Zhai Cong, Niu Hao and Dong Xian successively retreated to Jiangxi Road. Because the Puppet Qi controlled the strategic places such as Xiangyang and Jianghan in Yunzhou, it not only opened the gap of the Yangtze River defense line in the Southern Song Dynasty, but also cut off the passage between Song Ting and Sichuan and Shaanxi. Liu Yu frequently sent envoys to Dongting Lake to contact the peasant rebels led by Yang Yao, and planned to attack from the north and south to destroy the Song Dynasty. At the same time, we are going to go south again when the wheat is ripe next year, and cooperate with the Jin Army attacking Sichuan and Shaanxi to occupy Jinghu Lake first, then move eastward along the river and capture Lin' an (now Hangzhou)

Xiangyang and other six counties are bordered by Qin and Shu in the west and wuyue in the east. They can enter and attack the Central Plains, and retreat and defend Huguang. In the spring of four years, on the west road south of the Yangtze River in Song Dynasty, Yue Fei was the first enemy of Shu and Qi, and then they went north to recover the lost land in the Central Plains, and wrote to Song Ting: "The six counties in Xiangyang are in danger, and the Central Plains is basically restored." In March, Song Tingcai adopted Yue Fei's strategy and ordered him to be the envoy of Jingnan, Hubei and Yuezhou. In order to strengthen the strength, Dong Xian and other troops were placed under Yue Fei, while Hubei Lu Anfu made Yan, Cui Bangbi and Jingnan Town Fu temporarily transferred Yue Fei to contain them.

Song Gaozong ordered Yue Fei to send troops in order to make peace by war, and he did not intend to counterattack the Central Plains. Therefore, in Zagreb, which sent troops to Yue Fei, he ordered Yue Fei to recover only six counties and not to cross the border. "When chasing the peak, I was careful not to leave the old-fashioned world of Hengli, but it led to provocation and wrong plans. Although he has made great achievements, Higuard has been punished. " In order to cooperate with and support Yue Fei's rise, Song Ting also ordered Huaidong to send Han Shizhong to take more than 10,000 soldiers to Si as suspected soldiers to divide the enemy's potential. Life huaixi destroy Chen, CAI (now huaiyang, runan) two states, to show unity.

On April 19, Yue Fei led more than 30,000 troops from Jiangzhou (now Jiujiang, Jiangxi), crossed the river to the west via Ezhou (now Wuchang, Wuhan) and went to Jiangxin. Yue Fei swore to his subordinates: "Don't catch thieves and be handsome, return to your homeland and stay away from this river!" " On the fifth day of May, Song Jun arrived in Yunzhou, the southernmost town of the Puppet Manchukuo. The commander of the garrison, Jing Chao, was a guard in the Northern Song Dynasty, and was known as "ten thousand enemies". Yue Fei's advance staff advised him to surrender, but he was sternly refused. Due to the lack of logistical support, the army only had enough food for two meals at this time, and Yue Fei had a well-thought-out plan. It is expected to break the city the next morning.

At dawn the next day, Yue Fei sat under the standard and commanded the siege. Jing Chao also led the pseudo-Qi Shoujun to fight back according to the city, and the fighting was extremely fierce. Suddenly, a cannon stone landed at Yue Fei's feet and fled in panic. Yue Fei looks very safe. Soldiers stepped on their shoulders and rushed into the city, beheading thousands of pseudo-Qi troops, and Jing Chao committed suicide by jumping off a cliff. After Yue Fei captured Yingzhou, he immediately divided into two ways, ordered Zhang Xian and Xu Qingdong to attack Suizhou, and led the main force to Xiangyang along the Hanshui River. Li Chengwen, who was stationed in Xiangyang, personally led the army to attack and quickly led the army north. On 17th, Yue Fei entered Xiangyang. Zhang Xi 'an and Xu Qing attacked Suizhou, but failed for several days. Yue Fei ordered Niu Hao to lead an army to help.

18, Song Jun launched a general attack. Yue Yun, Yue Fei's eldest son, is brave and invincible. He was the first to rush to Chengtou. Song Jun broke the city in one fell swoop and captured more than 5,000 people under the county magistrate Wang Song.

At the beginning of June, the rulers sent reinforcements from Hebei and Hedong to gather with the pseudo-Qi army in Xinye (now Henan), Longpi (now southeast of jia county, Henan), Zaoyang (now Hubei), Tang Zhou, Dengzhou and other places, claiming to be 300,000, in an attempt to recapture Xiangyang. After assessing the enemy's situation, Yue Fei first ordered Wang Wan to lead an army as bait to lure him to attack the Qingshui River in the northwest of Xiangyang.

On the fifth day, Li Cheng launched an attack with all his strength. Yue Fei led the main force to detour from the flank and fought back with Wang Wanjun. The next day, Li Cheng stepped forward and rode 10 to fight back again. With his own strength several times that of Song Jun, he violated the routine of the art of war of infantry and cavalry, rashly disposed of them, left the cavalry on the bank of Xiangjiang River and died in the wilderness on the right.

After seeing the loophole in Li Cheng's position, Yue Fei adopted a step-by-step and step-by-step tactic, ordering Wang Gui to lead the infantry to attack its cavalry with a pike, and Niu Hao to lead the cavalry to attack its infantry. After Song Jun's attack, the former cavalry of the puppet state of Qi was shattered, and the latter cavalry swarmed into the river. The dead are countless, lying dead for more than 20 miles, and Li Cheng led the people to flee at night. In order to contain the offensive, the rulers ordered Panxi to lead Shaanxi and Hebei to sign troops to reinforce the puppet troops, and together with Li and others, tens of thousands of soldiers set more than 30 villages in the northwest of Dengzhou in an attempt to fight Song Jun. After knowing the enemy's situation, Yue Fei sent troops to attack Dengzhou in July, and ordered Wang Gui and Zhang Xian to advance into Dengzhou from Guanghua (now northwest of laohekou city, Hubei) and Henglin (now northwest of Xiangfan) to carry out a joint attack.

/kloc-on 0/5, a fierce battle was launched with the Jin and Qi allied forces in a place more than 30 miles away from Dengzhou. When the two armies fought fiercely, Yue Fei ordered Wang Wan and Dong Xian to take advantage of the situation and attack at one stroke. He captured more than 200 soldiers, including Yang Desheng, captured more than 200 horses and possessed tens of thousands of armor. Liu Hezhen and Li Chengling fled, leaving only Gao Zhongshou in Dengzhou. On the 17th, Yue Fei supervised the siege, and Yue Yun first entered the city, captured Gao Zhong and recovered Dengzhou. On the 23rd, Yue Fei ordered him to stop Jin and Qi reinforcements 30 miles north to cover Li Dao's recovery. On that day, Cui Bangbi captured Xinyang Army. After Yue Fei deployed the defense of six counties, he led the army to triumph in Ezhou.

Comments: In this campaign, Song Jun lured the enemy into depth by ambush, defeated Jin Jun in one fell swoop and held Xiangyang.
