The elite army believes in the king and guards the left army is better, one man and two riders. But other armies only ride one person and one horse. As a result, Liu Kui chased him anxiously, believing that Wang Jun did not run too fast. Soon, Liu Kui caught up with Xin Wang Jun. At this time, the two armies were not far apart, and new battles began immediately!
But the reality is like this, chasing is always more tiring than running! Especially Zhao Zhen has enough Jinbing Han soldiers and common people strong men. These people are all familiar with the road. They circumnavigated around, making full use of their geographical advantages to keep Liu Kui busy.
In the face of Liu Kui's pursuit, Zhao Zhen made full use of various methods such as sneak attacks, surprise attacks, fires, and ranger poison arrows, and unexpectedly expanded the casualties of the Jin Army and Han soldiers to two thousand! Correspondingly, Liu Kui lost more than two thousand people, and Zhao Zhen's miscellaneous army paid a loss of 800 casualties!
Because Liu Kui's cavalry strength was less than 8,000, he was helpless, Liu Yi forcedly ordered the army to retreat from Quwo City. During the retreat, something unexpected happened to Jin Bing!
When the Jinbing and Han soldiers and Ma Huijun reached the Jiashan Canyon, the Xinwang Army once again appeared on Jiashan Road. The last time it was the Jinbing and Han soldiers who came across here after the Xinwang people, the two sides fought a battle here, if not for their own strength, but also with the elite of three thousand guards from the Zuojun.
Then, the Jinbing Han army at that time was likely to be killed, which means that Zhao Zhen's miscellaneous letter king army put together by descending soldiers and common people might fail! Zhao Zhen has never fought such a mysterious battle before, and he has always been confident.
Of course, this is also because Thaksin Wang Zhao Zhen is a little careless, and often brings himself to train a good soldier, and some makes him overestimate the strength of the miscellaneous army.
The five-fold rebuke and a cart with a long spear were in front of him. The soldiers of Xin Wang laughed at the opposite side. More than 10,000 people laughed wildly, and laughter resounded across the sky. As before! In contrast, the morale of the Jinbing and Han soldiers with more than 23,000 soldiers has fallen again!
At this time, the letter king soldiers on the opposite side yelled again: "My prince asks you whether you will descend or not!" Then the cliché, the letter king soldiers behind them shouted together: "I will not descend, I will not descend!"
Liu Kui was so angry that he folds his horse whips! Although their soldiers and horses have lost a lot, they are still nearly twice as many as those of the opposing army. This canyon on the mountain road can't be walked, they can take a detour. Is the letter king on the opposite side stupid, always letting their stronger side surrender
At this time, Liu Yi thought for a while, called a soldier, and said, "Go and ask them, what are the conditions for surrender!" The soldier yelled in the past: "Our general asks you, what are the conditions for surrender!"
The person on the other side shouted: "Put down your weapons and come here and accept our reorganization. For those who plant the land, we will give you 50 acres of land, a lamb, and a new type of farming tools. We will teach you how to farm and collect eleven taxes. Yes! At least five buckets of grain or copper coins at the same price per month! Under the supervision of high-minded, gentle and beautiful propaganda generals, there will never be a deduction of military pay, and there will never be a penny or food! Free board and lodging for soldiers, Take care of the meat as you eat!"
Hearing the other party's condition, Liu Kui was so startled that he couldn't speak. Liu Yi sighed: "I now know why so many of our enemies have surrendered so desperately!" Then he simply said: "Let's take a detour!" He rode away.
Liu Kui didn't say much this time, he also led his troops to leave in a hurry, and the Jinbing Han army made a detour! On the way, Liu Kui said to Liu Wei: "You shouldn't ask those things. Our army has received a lot of poor treatment in the Golden Army. We have to take some out of it. It would be good if the soldiers under our hand can eat well. The conditions they offered were too attractive, making it difficult for those poor soldiers to refuse."
Liu Yi sighed: "If I don't ask, these news will be passed down, and we will know it for a long time, but if I ask, we at least know now. Otherwise, how would we know this kind of thing? If we I don't know how can we deal with this kind of thing!"
Liu Kui curiously asked: "How do we deal with this kind of thing? We don't have much money from them. The believer Zhao Zhen is really true. Didn't he start from scratch? How can they have so much money?"
Speaking of this, Liu Kui slapped his forehead and said, "By the way, I heard that the expensive colored glazes were all produced by Xin Wangjun. And the precious mirror, grandma's, cost me five thousand taels of silver to buy a slap. The bigger one, I regard it as a treasure, indicating that they are really rich. But if they have so much money, why can they still have so much food? Where does their food come from? Isn't Xin Wang at odds with Emperor Song? "
Liu Yi shook his head and said: "The King of Letters naturally has a way. The big merchants who deal with them have given them grain, and they bought it at a high price. A mirror can be exchanged for one and a half times the price of grain. I am the merchant. It will also transport grain for trade in the past."
Next, the two were speechless during the march. The person who believes in the king is terrible. He has created a miracle and made all the impossible possible. Now the more the two talk about believing in Wang Zhaozhen, the more frustrated they are, so I won't say more.
But there are a lot of words at the bottom of the army, fifty acres of land, a sheep, and a corresponding new type of farm tool. How much wealth is this? Let's just talk about serving as a soldier, serving as a soldier in the Jinbing and Han army, and there is no salary or anything. Of course, there were indeed, all of which were detained by the generals. But when you serve as a soldier to the Xin Wang Jun, you have five buckets of food! How much do you get for food this year? Counting outside, it's a lot of money! At that time, the war was endless, and according to the prices at the time, food was very expensive. And this five buckets of food is just a month's monthly salary for the miscellaneous army! The food and drink Lazarus is not counted in the army.
Just as the Jinbing and Han soldiers were marching on a detour, suddenly from both sides of the Dalu Mountains and forests, Xinwangbing suddenly appeared. A large number of Wang Jun suddenly appeared, and then they threw out the hurriedly sharpened wooden spears in their hands. They rushed out of the forest like the wind, then threw the wooden spear, and then quickly retreated back to the forest to retreat. The action was amazing!
The Jinbing and Han soldiers were caught off guard. About five thousand sharpened wooden spears stabbed nearly five hundred people. Suddenly, the screams resounded across the sky, and the formation of the Jinbing and Han army was immediately scattered!
Liu Qian immediately stopped the advancing team, and he immediately sent troops into the forest. A large number of Jinbing and Han soldiers entered the mountains and forests to search for the enemy. It is a pity that the Xinwang Army passed by like a gust of wind, without a thread, and it has long since disappeared.
Unable to do anything, Liu Qian immediately ordered the Jinbing Han Army to start shrinking the formation, and they retreated towards Quwo City. Liu Yi sighed and said to Liu Kui: "If I'm not mistaken, the King of Letters has begun to fight back against us. But this King of Letters is too insidious. Instead of fighting us head-on, he came to Yin. Look, it's just that. Start!"
Sure enough, during the next retreat, the Jinbing Han Army was continuously attacked by various sneak attacks by the Xinwang Army!
The Xinwangjun always had enough horsepower, and then rushed out, shooting arrows at the Jinbing Han army, and then retreated like the wind. In the retreat, the Xin Wang Jun still hung Liu Yi's Jin Bing Han soldiers tightly behind!
Finally, on the beach of a tributary of the Fen River to the south of Quwo City. While the Jinbing and Han troops were crossing the river, Xinwang Jun launched a deadly attack.
Zhao Zhenshuai's nine-thousand miscellaneous army and the five-thousand faithful guard Zuojun who had just gathered, first fired a few arrows at the Jinjun Han army, and then charged and killed.
This time the offensive was so violent. Because it was a river beach, the land beside the river was a bit muddy. The Jinbing and Han soldiers fought back and ran slowly. As a result, Wang Xinjun caught a lot!
Because there is a river, it is very inconvenient for the Jinbing and Han soldiers to march. The number of people is sometimes not good. More than 20,000 people crowded by the river, scattered in chaos.
At this time Xin Wang Jun shouted again: "Surrender! Fifty acres of land, a sheep, a new type of farming tools..." This is simply a curse! Actually, many Jin soldiers and Han soldiers surrendered after killing the generals or the soldiers of the warlords who were commanding the battle around them when they could not run or were moved by the heart.
In the end, the two armies did not conduct fierce battles at all in this battle, and the army of more than 20,000 Jin soldiers and Han people lost more than 3,000 people! Of course, most of them are surrenders.
Not only that, they also lost a lot of food, cattle, horses and sheep. In order to avoid further losses to the army, Liu Kuishuai's remaining cavalry with less than seven thousand returned a blow. But this time, Xin Wangbing entangled tightly and fought fiercely.
Liu Kui led his army to fight for a while, but the morale of his soldiers was unavailable. After a hasty fight, Liu Kui could only stabilize the situation and leave by ferry!
Under the leadership of Liu Yi and Liu Kui, the remnants of the Jinbing Han Army retreated to the empty city of Quwo! When they went south, there were nearly 30,000 soldiers and horses, and countless grains, cattle, horses and sheep. But now, after repeated battles, they now have less than 20,000 troops left in the Jinbing and Han Chinese Army. Of course, after adding the 5,000 people in the city, there are still 23,000 people.
However, many of the Han soldiers in the Jin Army were tired and hungry at this time, and they didn't want to fight anymore! And everyone is on guard, doubting each other, for fear of their companions surrendering! The Golden Military Law stipulates that all members of the team who have surrendered shall behead all the soldiers of the team. This is also the reason why Jinbing and Han soldiers surrendered in batches.
But for the Jinbing and Han soldiers, the loss of soldiers and horses is not the worst. What is really bad is that there is not much food for the army! The current Jinbing Han army has more than 20,000 people, but there are only 700 sheep, more than 100 cattle, and less than a thousand burdens of food.
That's it, go to Quwo City's inventory. A large number of livestock and food were intercepted by the Xin Wang army during the Battle of the River Beach. Without food, the blow to the Jinbing Han army is really too great!
Immediately, Liu Wei sent a letter for help to Jiangzhou City! He explained his reasons. First of all, he was not sure to defeat the Xin Wangjun. Because King Xin has bought a large number of soldiers from the Jinbing Han army and the serf people captured by the Jinbing Han army! The facts are very ironic. Now their enemy, Xinwang's army, has more comrades-in-arms in the past than enemies of the past!
One more thing, this is an oral message passed by Liu Qian to Liu Lin in private. Liu Qian felt that the use of huge profits to lure Jinbing and Han sergeants into the enemy by the Xin Wangjun was a great harm. He thinks it is best to do something to buy people's hearts, such as dissolving his status as slaves of the Han people and paying more soldiers to the soldiers. However, Liu Lin was controlled by the Jindu to unify Yan Jammu. Even Liu Qian himself felt that these things would definitely not succeed!
Liu Yi's conjecture was hit. Due to the defeat of the Jinbing and the Han army, as well as the shortage of food and grass. This intensified the Jinbing Han army's desire to drop soldiers. In one night, the gate of Quwo city opened wide. More than two thousand horses of Jinbing and Han soldiers came out of the city. They surrendered to the Xinwang army and joined the Xinwang army. They learned to sing the songs composed by the Xinwang personally, and began to regard themselves as the Xinwangjun!
Zhao Zhen also sent troops again, occupied Hujiao Town and Caicun Town, and stationed troops under Quwo City. Zhao Zhen stationed the army here. As soon as the reorganized soldiers and horses from Jiangxian and Jiangshan arrived, Xinwang's army now had a cavalry formation of 15,000 and 10,000 infantry. prepared by!
But there are not enough horses, Zhao Zhen needs horses, war horses! In fact, Zhao Zhen has those horses, and he still has tens of thousands of good horses! But the problem is that those horses are in Bluestone City, not here. In addition, the weather is getting colder and colder. If you really get those good horses to fight the winter war, Zhao Zhen will have to pay a considerable price. Warhorses will be frozen to death in a large amount, such a big loss is not a joke! Zhao Zhen could not make such a decision.
Therefore, Zhao Zhen immediately distributed the cavalry and war horses to the two occupied towns and various villages to prevent the war horses that were already in short supply from freezing to death. At this time, he relied on the siege of 10,000 infantry soldiers. Of course, he still has a thousand soldiers and horses from the First Battalion of the Left Army in his hand.
At this time, Zhao Zhen also had no strength to attack the city. First of all, there are more or less 20,000 soldiers and horses in Quwo City, and Zhao Zhen has only more than 20,000 people in his hands, and most of these people are cavalry. Zhao Zhen did not have the confidence to take down Quwo City with a small amount of casualties. After all, Quwo City is a big city, and Zhao Zhen has no gunpowder anymore.
Now, Liu Yi has sent five thousand guards on each city wall, and he has reserved the remaining two thousand troops! The whole army was mobilized to defend the city. In order to defend the city, Liu Qian did not hesitate to bring more than 6,000 war horses to prepare to kill them when there was no food. In other words, if you really want to fight, this must be a bloody battle!
Liu Wei's soldiers, who rushed to Jiangzhou City quickly, finally arrived at Liu Lin Barracks in the woods outside Jiangzhou City. Like last time, he went to Liu Lin's mansion in the jungle barracks. The guards led him into the hall, and soon, he said everything!
"We hadn’t even reached Jiangxian, the enemy had already breached Jiangxian. We found General Liu Kui who had retreated to Jiangshan’s cottage. At that time, we heard the exact news of Jiangxian’s destruction. But that night, we We were raided by King Xin's army, and the city gates suddenly opened wide, and countless kings of Xin's army came and we had to retreat to Quwo."
"Later, my family Liu Yi immediately rectified the army and sent troops to attack the King Xin's army again. We were blocked by the King Xin's army on the march. The King Xin's army was shameless. They like to use poison on weapons and also love to set up traps. In short, we are blocked."
"Later, we pursued the King of Xin's army, but a large number of slaves, people, and our army's descendants all surrendered to the enemy, and some did not surrender. Most of them were Jurchens and their families, as well as families of our generals, Xin. The king nailed them to the cross on the side of the road... Finally they were brutally killed..."
"We chased Xinwang soldiers all the way. We have many people, but there are few people who believe Wang. Xin Wangjun takes us around in circles. They don't fight us directly! Sneak attacks, surprise attacks, and cold-blooding, anyway, we lose a lot. We were before us. I have never encountered such an enemy!"
"We died a lot of people, so we returned to the army, but we were ambushes countless times by the Xin Wangjun on the road. The biggest loss was at the riverside. When we crossed the river again, we were defeated by Xin Wangjun. We lost. A large amount of cattle, horses, sheep and grain. Now, our military strength has been damaged by a half, but the strength of the believers has increased!"
"General Liu Yi asked me to explain that the situation of our army is not good now. This King of Faith, Zhao Zhen, is a rare god who descended to the earth. The great demon was reincarnated. Even the King of Faith, Zhao Zhen killed one of the ten thousand enemy warriors! Four ten thousand enemies confronted Zhao Zhen. That letter king Zhao Zhen is not an opponent. General Liu Yi said, now we need a lot of reinforcements, only in this way, we will have a chance to defeat the letter king army in the south!"
After listening to the report of Liu Wei's soldiers, the hall was silent. Liu Lin was meditating. Ever since he fought with the Jin Bing and the Song Army, the Jin Bing and Han troops have been smooth. But now, Song Jun is too busy to take care of himself, seeing that the situation is about to be determined. Instead, it was the trouble of believing in the king's army, defeating their Han army and the genuine golden soldiers many times.
Who could have imagined that King Xin, who was captured and escaped in the Song Dynasty, brought a few grass bandits from Wuma Mountain, and he would cause such a big trouble to the Kingdom of Jin in more than a year!
At this time, Liu Lin touched a piece of colorful Panlong glass on the table, which was extremely smooth and exuded colorful light. This piece of treasure was said to be produced only by the letter of Wang Jun, but it cost Liu Lin a full 80,000 taels of silver.
Liu Lin said: "For many years, ups and downs, we finally had this kind of days in the high position in the Kingdom of Jin. Now within a few days, the king of faith is here! War is like this, and a victor has stepped on it. Climbing up with the corpse of another loser! The Song Army on Shandong Road was destroyed by us, and countless Song troops were defeated at our feet. Even Du Chong surrendered to us! I just didn’t expect that things have changed now. A powerful letter king came out unexpectedly. It seems that we must act and summon all soldiers and horses immediately!"
The guard next to him responded, and suddenly remembered something, and said: "But General Liu Lin, now that all soldiers and horses are summoned, it is necessary for Jin Du to unify Yan Jama nodded!" Liu Lin said, "So, it is imperative. , You go and give Li Cheng an order, let him gather soldiers and horses to prepare for the camp, I will go to Jiangzhou City personally!
