Prince of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 82: Zhao Zhen's victory and Zhao Gou's embarrassment

Views:

After escaping from the Wanyan Lou room, the two armies of Li Yanxian, Shao Xing and Shao Long, who had been killed from the left and right, encircled them, blocking the elite back path of the thousands of golden armies that could not retreat in the entanglement battle and the broken five thousand golden armies.

At this time, the beast led the five thousand golden dragon army, and Yang Fan led the five thousand dragon army, and began to follow and kill the defeated soldiers of the golden army. Jin Jun was defeated and retreated to Jiezhou City. The corpses that were hunted down in a hasty escape were all over the field...

At this time, in the spear forest cavalry formation, there were flashing spear heads everywhere. Bringing Munch with the elite of the Five Thousand Army, he was stabbed by this Benz moving gun forest nearly one-third in a short period of time.

The remnant army of the Golden Army that had been exhausted saw that the coach had fled, and their fighting spirit was completely smashed. A lot of Jin Jun's entire team dismounted, dropped their swords, and knelt in front of Song Jun begging for mercy.

Most of the Jin Army consisted of people from the Northland Han people, Khitan people, Bohai people, Xi people and so on. When fighting with the wind, these people who lost the country cast their grievances on Song State. And once a tough battle was fought, especially when they were surrounded and slaughtered, they would undoubtedly die when they resist, and they surrendered.

The army surrendered one after another, bringing Munch with his personal soldiers to kill a lot of them, but they couldn't stop them. Not only that, he and his personal soldiers were also beheaded and killed by the soldiers of the Golden Army who were about to surrender. The soldiers who brought Munch were killed by their own people. Seeing this, they brought Munch and let out a long sigh, and then cut his neck with a knife.··············································································

Countless horses of the letter king army surrounded them, and bloody spears hung over the heads of the surrendering soldiers like a jungle.... Believe that the king's army will not kill the Golden State fighters who surrendered without resisting. They are waiting for the military order.

Under the banner of Dazhu, Zhao Zhen shouted: "Take them all away. They will all be our soldiers in the future."

At this time, Li Yanxian's handsome flag also came. Seeing Li Yanxian's handsome flag, Zhao Zhenfei jumped off the horse. The captives took away all their own opinions, so they must be polite to Li Yanxian. After all, although Li Yanxian protected their identities, he was still a general under the rule of Zhao Gou's Southern Song court Zhang Jun. In these chaotic times, he already knew that etiquette was a necessary respect for this patriotic general who was very helpful to him.

Zhao Zhen took the war horse and walked over and said: "General Li, we have won, and you have worked hard." The visitor has a square face, a beautiful face, and a thin beard. It is Dr. Youwu, Ningzhou Observer, and Guo Er. State system set Li Yanxian.

Li Yanxian saw Zhao Zhen escorting all the prisoners away from a distance, and his heart was also spinning. But he also knew that this victory was almost always won by the Believing King's army, and his army's contribution was rather small, and he would have a big face to blame for how he would deal with the prisoners. He was only slightly dissatisfied, but he didn't show it on his face. He smiled and rode his horse to greet him, and said, "This big victory, the whole battle, General Gao will manage the army well and fight bravely!"

Zhao Zhen pointed to this long captive. Wanduo's soldiers and horses were captured in great numbers, and said: "The Shitiaoshan cottage has not been built yet. These captives are soldiers and cannot be taught. It is best to use them to build cottages. However, will General Li agree to me taking them away?"

Li Yanxian understood immediately that Zhao Zhen had insufficient manpower and wanted to take all the prisoners away to do coolies. This is inevitable, although more than a hundred thousand people have turned to Shitiaoshan's Xinwang army, there are enough manpower. But he also got the news that this tall pang was so bold that he dared to build a castle in Shitiao Mountain. Fortunately, the imperial court can't take care of itself, otherwise, this crime of building a castle privately to support its own self-respect is not light.

Because Zhao Zhen’s letter to Wang Jun and Li Yanxian had a good relationship, Li Yanxian naturally kept covering up for them. Now facing each other's request, naturally all agree.

"Come here, give the 1,000 horses captured to General Li." Zhao Zhen immediately said to his opponent. It is also not to be indecent to come and go, and to give face to others, one must show something.

During the transfer, Li Yanxian also happily left the horses behind. His army has very few cavalry. With this thousand horses, he has a mobile unit, which is naturally very happy.

"Although we have defeated the Golden Army one part now. But the Golden Army is powerful. Although we are not afraid of them, we are indeed in the weakest period of Song Dynasty. Brother Gao feels that Shitiao Mountain and Shanzhou City can be defended? "

Zhao Zhen laughed and paused before he slowly said: "I have three reasons to believe that we will not fall." Li Yanxian suddenly brightened his eyes and said, "I wish to hear from Brother Gao."

"First, the main force of the Golden Army is heading south, which means that the main force of the Golden Army is not here. Since the main force of the Golden Army is not here, then it means that the Golden Army still has no foreign aid in this area. If this is the case, the enemy must not be able to. I didn't dare to launch an attack with all my strength, this is the first one."

"Secondly, you and my armies are horns to each other, relying on precipitous defenses. If the Jin Army wants to rush down to Shitiao Mountain and Shanzhou City in a short period of time, it will never be a dream!"

"The three are the most obvious, that is, the Golden Army has no grain and grass, it is impossible to launch an attack for a long time to attack Shitiao Mountain and Shanzhou City. If you want to come, you also know that the Jinjun grain and grass have been robbed many times, and they came about ten times. Wan Dajun, even if we are beaten by us, there are still seventy to eighty thousand people, but every day, do you know how much food and grass the Jinjun will spend in vain

I believe that the Golden Army’s food reserves are not much, and their current food is all transferred from afar, and it is impossible to replenish it for the time being. Besides, the strength of the Jin army has also reached its limit. Once they continue to damage their troops when fighting against us, or they are stuck in our desperate battle. Even the Wanyan Lou room realized that it was impossible to get down to Shanzhou City in a hurry, so he would inevitably retreat! So I dare to assert that the Golden Army will never destroy the allied forces of you and me this time, everything is just a false alarm! "

Li Yanxian smiled, and then said: "There is nothing perfect in this world, I believe you also know. Although the Jin army is unfavorable in the war, the damage is too heavy. But after all, the Jin army is strong, and the Wanyan Lou room still has seven or eighty thousand soldiers. And the enemy has it. Many siege firearms are really not to be taken care of."

Zhao Zhen thought for a while and smiled: "Gao Pang believes that we can continue to win. Under this situation, Brother Li will take the whole family to guard Shaanzhou City, not leaving Shaanzhou, Gao Pang is not afraid of risks, so I will stick to Zhongtiao Mountain. Shanzhai. Guard Zhongtiao Mountain for my Song Dynasty, and be the vanguard for Brother Li."

Li Yanxian laughed and said, "Brother Gao is humble. Where can Li dare to let you be the vanguard? You and I are comrades-in-arms, brothers who fight against gold together! Brother Gao, don't worry, as long as I, Li, are in Shanzhou City for one day, I will never let the court remove you and me. I will cover up for you one or two. Don't worry." Zhao Zhen clasped his fist and replied, "Thank you Brother Li, then!"

In a luxurious mansion in Changzhou, in Zhao Go's opinion, it was too simple and decorated, but it was cleaned by court ladies and eunuchs. Although Zhao Gou was very dissatisfied with the temporary mansion managed by his subordinates. But because he himself didn't plan to live here for a long time, he could only barely live here.

Although Zhao Gou was chased by the Jin army, like a dog fleeing hurriedly with its tail sandwiched between them, he still couldn't change his habit of luxury. At this time, all the important officials of his imperial court were here. Those southern new generations are the most eye-catching. They were originally the new southern forces that had invaded the Song Dynasty when the Golden Soldiers invaded and went south, and stood up in the aftermath of the Great War. Zhao Gou now wants money and money, food and food, because of the support of these large southern families.

With mutual support, Zhao Gou had money and food, and these great families in the south had power. The Jin Army divided its forces into two groups, crossing the Yangtze River from Huangzhou all the way, and attacking Hongzhou eastward, preparing to capture the Queen Mother Longyou. Another route led by Wanyan Zongbi (Wu Shu) himself, crossed the river from Majiadu to capture Taipingzhou, and advanced to Jiankang Mansion.

In the north of Jiankang Mansion, Du Chong, who was responsible for guarding the Yangtze River, escaped from Kaifeng and was defeated by the Golden Army. Although he hired a loyal martyr as a scapegoat, he knew that he couldn't work safely under Zhao Go. The Jin army is so powerful that he wants to vote for another master to save his life. Therefore, after the beginning of the southward flight, when Jin Bing advanced towards Jiankang Mansion, Du Chong changed his route to the north and fled to Zhenzhou in Jiangbei by boat, and surrendered Jin Bing.

The Jin Jun who came biting his tail began to camp outside Jiankang. Because he came with his tail biting, the Song Army who fled to the city was also quite tired. In particular, they suffered a huge loss from the incompetent general Du Chong. Li Gui, Wang Gui, Ding Jin and a group of generals who were able to conquer the battle also followed Gao Yunfei north to Zhao Zhen. Now in Jiankang City, there are almost no famous generals, and Jiankang is in jeopardy.

Han Shizhong was stationed in Zhenjiang by the Western Zhejiang system, and Gaozong asked him to send all his troops to cover him, prevent the Jinbing from chasing him, and protect his safety. In this cover mission, Han Shizhong did not completely obey Gaozong's order to protect only himself.

The soldiers under Han Shizhong were divided into groups of men and horses. Groups of groups harassed the Golden Army as if they were dead. Many people died heroically in the battle, but again, they resisted this way, but they succeeded in making it impossible for the Golden Army to be the best. March at a fast speed.

The most important thing is that many people escaped the pursuit of the Jin Bing one after another, and Zhao Gou was able to retreat in such a stable manner with all the elders and ministers, without being overtaken by the Jin Bing.

When Wan Yan Zongbi (Wu Shu) arrived with soldiers and horses, he could only look at the city and sigh. On a long journey, the Jinjun’s physical fitness dropped greatly, so he had to take a rest instead of attacking the city immediately.

Saw the Golden Army camp instead of continuing the offensive. Han Shi, who was observing the enemy camp from a distance, writhed like a knife. What a great opportunity was before my eyes, but I missed it time and time again. The Jin Jun is so unsustainable. If he still had 10,000 people in his hands, even 7,000 or 8,000, he would have the ambition and courage to attack the golden soldiers and fight to the death under the city.

But... Originally, Han Shizhong had very few soldiers and horses in his hands, and now he has only more than 4,000 men in his hands. This is his full strength!

Once upon a time, the Song Dynasty, powerful enough to gather eight million soldiers, turned out to be what it is now that the Golden Army hit its south and almost fell into the hands of the enemy.

The only thing that reassures Han Shizhong is that Dajidie Li Xuan, the head of the butterfly department, told him good news. Moreover, even though his strength was insufficient, he could not conduct a general attack on the hundred thousand golden army. But these four thousand or so people can just be used to harass and stop the other party from continuing south.

With a sigh of relief, Han Shizhong returned to the military tent in the forest. Due to the humid weather, it exuded a musty smell.

When Han Shizhong entered the military tent, all the generals wearing armor had been waiting for a long time. Han Shizhong further planned the next step to obstruct the Golden Army, trying to use his limited force to give the Golden Army a heavy blow to repel this invasion of the Golden Army.

When Han Shizhong was on the front line painstakingly entangled with the Jin army with few troops, Zhao Gou sat down in his seat at the Changzhou mansion not far away. There was a trace of sadness on his face, and then he said: "Everyone already knows the news that came just now. So, Li Aiqing, you mean that the man named Gao Pang made another contribution. He cooperated with General Li Yanxian and led the army. He killed the Jinjun generals and brought Munch, Ulu Reba and Wanyanlie, captured the opponent's thousands of horses, and defeated the tens of thousands of troops led by the Jinjun Dutong Wanyanlou room, right?"

As soon as he said this, the officials headed by Lu Yihao all laughed "hehe". In their opinion, such a record is a myth. In other words, Li Yanxian and Li Xuan are talking big and bragging! In other words, they don't admit it.

Unexpectedly, when they were happy, Han Shizhong came here quickly from the military tent. He was wearing a steel-topped chi-patterned dragon beast helmet, and a precision-cast steel knife with a tiger-head handle was slung in his waist. Han Shizhong is commendable for his loyalty and bravery, and he is also a hero of the King of Qin, and now is a very time, so he has the honor of Zhao Gou in front of him without sacrificing his sword.

"Long live, the minister asked the southern family to assemble the family members to fight against the gold. Otherwise, the Jin army will be so powerful, and Du Chong will be defeated. We don't have the strength, and I am afraid that we can't deal with the golden army. As long as we can raise 100,000 men , We can challenge anytime!"

When Li Yanxian said these words, the ministers still didn't care much, and even Lu Yihao showed a cold smile. There are a lot of servants under him, plus Jia Ding, at least three thousand. But everyone disagreed, and his little family was built to protect his people. They were drawn out in order to resist the golden soldiers, who would protect their family? Therefore, the ministers finally expressed a kind of resistance with a kind of speechless or even sneer. Lu Yihao sneered, then closed his eyes.

"Pig, it's really a pig, so stupid! I don't want to think about it, at this time, when the army is insufficient, what do you say to the king? How much can you hide, and the silence can make a fortune! Even we Report the members of each family to your Majesty. Is the number reported by everyone the real number? There are clearly a thousand people, so what can you do to me when I say only ten people? Isn't it useless in the end?" Lu Yihao thought in his heart.

In Han Shizhong's view, everyone is loyal to the country. In order to prevent the country from being swallowed by the golden soldiers, it is worthwhile to make any sacrifices. But this is true for him who is devoted to serving the country. But for those aristocratic families, protecting their family is the most important thing. The country is over and the family is there.

Moreover, the strength of the southern clan is very terrifying. The strength of each of their families may not be a big deal. But if they gather the strength, the whole family can freely use more than 100,000 manpower, what does this mean to Song State? In a country, the family holds a military power of about 100,000 in their hands. What does this mean to Gaozong

This is not the most terrifying thing. The most terrifying thing is that these 100,000 people don't want the Song Kingdom government to support them, that is to say, the family is supporting these tens of thousands of people with their own strength. As far as a country is concerned, this is too outrageous. In other words, if the people of the world are willing, they can train all these 100,000 people into the army instead of a copper plate from the government. And unlike the rebels and the heroic people in the north, this army is an all-armed elite army. Can the people raised by the family be bad? Was the family that almost had to spend money to support it

Therefore, due to various reasons, this family of people still couldn't make a difference, let alone let Zhao Go know. At this time, Zhao Gou was thinking about how to kill Gao Pang and disintegrate his belief in the king's army, but now he suddenly frightened the 100,000 people in Han Shizhong's mouth.

Isn't there even only five thousand guards around him? Zhao Gou remembered that after successive battles, he drew three thousand troops out of his hand to resist the enemy and broke off, but was finally defeated. In other words, he is now full of calculations, and there are only two thousand guards soldiers, no other reason, because he is blindly running away now, and he hasn't thought about how to fight against gold. Therefore, he never put a large number of troops in front of him, and he was afraid that the "Liu Miao mutiny" would happen again.

Zhao Gou was afraid of death and loss of the throne, so he was not afraid of traitorousness, land sales, or loss of face. Therefore, Zhao Gou has always adopted a strategy of suppressing the rebels who threatened him, and he has been shamelessly begging for mercy against the Jin Army by betraying the country and selling land.

He has such a small number of troops. How could Han Shizhong suddenly become a hundred thousand people? Out of thin air, can the southern aristocracy recruit these 100,000 soldiers? How many soldiers and horses are there in the court? It's only a few hundred thousand, right? Immediately, Zhao Gou had a heart to guard against this family of families.

Zhao Gou thought a lot at this moment. For him, the rebels were made up of thieves and unsophisticated people. There are even a lot of rebel forces that could not survive but resisted the Song Dynasty, which is very unreliable. The generals, on the other hand, have self-respect and some seem to be unfaithful. I can't tell who is loyal and who is dissident. Nowadays, the families are also taking advantage of each other. It is really difficult for him to be an emperor.

He is a difficult emperor, naturally he thinks it, but if he is improper, he will not do it. Anyone who dares to threaten his throne will kill him, even if he is a new brother or father!
