Light rain.
The morning fog is heavy.
Zhao Kuangyin held his hand and looked at the groups of sergeants, nervously and orderly immersed in the morning mist, the figure gradually moving away, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
These sergeants who had fought hard with the Jurchen cavalry for more than a month, although they were already exhausted, and when they retreated, everyone's eyes were still immersed in deep bloodthirsty and unwillingness.
If in the past several famous generals such as Yue Fei and Liu Qi taught them to be fearless and fearless in front of those invaders, they can withstand the footsteps of the Jurchens, then in the past month or so, the emperor has made them understand that as long as everyone is Able to fear death without fear of death, then the great shame of all the people of the Song Dynasty is just around the corner.
However, all of them now wear military weapons, and they are still walking vigorously and straightforwardly, and they can walk without hesitation.
Because this command was given by the emperor, and the emperor’s command must be right. In the past month or so, one miracle after another has given them a kind of attitude towards the emperor. Nearly blind trust, in their opinion, every unbelievable command of the prince marshal always concealed endless wisdom, which will always lead them from victory to greater victory.
Wang Gui frowned beside Zhao Kuangyin, because all the generals, including him, also couldn't understand.
Before the peace talks were reached, the Jurchen cavalry was particularly strong. At this time, it began to gradually withdraw from the Da Song army surrounding and ambushing. Was it too hasty? !
Although there is a huge gap between the number of these great Song army and the Jurchen army, and at the same time, they are the end of the crossbow, and they cannot be relied on to face the enemy. However, with such an army in hand, it can always rely on all kinds of terrain to bluff and generalize. The Jurchen cavalry continued to besiege here.
Don’t say that the peace agreement is not reached at this time. Even though the peace agreement has been concluded, the Jurchens can always force them to keep their promises, and they dare not repent, but the emperor officials just do not know. At this time, I was eager to let these troops withdraw and rest, and let the horse troops and battalions prepare to come in to handle the delivery of ordnance and horses. It seemed that the Jurchens would be able to do so without knowing the truth about themselves. He was eager to agree to the general conditions for the peace talks of the Song Dynasty. In his opinion, this is really unbelievable.
Could it be that the emperor's official family has been too smooth these days, and was stunned by victory for a while, right? !
He muttered inwardly, and he couldn't help but curl his lips.
Zhao Kuangyin turned his head, seeing Wang Gui's expression on his face, he couldn't help but laughed blankly: "General Wang doesn't have any opinion on my arrangement, so let's just talk and listen."
Wang Gui was taken aback, and quickly raised his head and shook his hand: "No, no no, the emperor is planning to win the victory thousands of miles away, just as the sun and the moon are in the sky, the sacred candle is shining, the young general..."
Zhao Kuangyin gave a false kick to stop his long talk, and said: "General Wang did not do two trips to slander the emperor's father. This time, what are you being polite? It's better to speak up!"
Wang Gui touched his head, he laughed a few times, but came to a acquiescence.
In these days, he and Zhao Kuangyin have got along well. Zhao Kuangyin was originally the emperor of the bow horse. He didn’t like false texts in the army, and there was not too much red tape. On the contrary, he liked to mingle with these sergeants. For a long time, Wang Gui didn't feel much shackled, and it was only half a joke.
Zhao Kuangyin squinted at him, frowning and said: "A good man, how can you still be such a mother-in-law? Just let it go if you have a fart, do you have to wait for me to visit the cottage?"
Wang Gui looked at Zhao Kuangyin, his original doubts were diminished by the powerful confidence that he could feel from this elder marshal, but the words after thinking for a long time turned into several installments, Ai Ai said, "The final general I just feel that Jin Wushu has been on the battlefield for a long time, and his aspirations have been strengthened. Although it is said that the emperor officials have been invited to make peace talks, their situation indeed seems to be at the point where they should be reconciled, and there is nothing unreasonable. , But... but... ”
He frowned, he seemed to know that there was no logic in what he said, but he couldn't find a suitable word to describe it. After a long while, he made a sentence: "Jin Wushu is not so easy, so he is willing to bow his head. People!"
"Yes!" Wang Guishu opened his eyebrows, as if he had finally found the answer to his doubts, and repeated himself: "Jin Wushu is by no means such an easy person who is willing to bow his head?"
"Oh?" Zhao Kuangyin smiled slightly, and looked at Wang Gui with interest: "What kind of person is Jin Wushu? You are here to listen!"
Wang Gui frowned slightly, and groaned: "Actually, the general is not sure..."
He raised his head, saw Zhao Kuangyin's slightly frowning eyebrows, and quickly added: "But the general always feels that Jin Wushu is ruthless, fierce enough, daring to fight, and daring to fight, just like... Like..."
He paused for a moment, then paused and didn't go on.
It wasn't until this time that he vaguely felt that this golden technique, which he and even all Song soldiers regarded as not sharing the enemy and hatred of the sky, was in fact so close or even almost identical in many places.
It is precisely because of this that he almost intuitively believes that Jin Wushu will never just surrender like this before he really engages the enemy head-on.
Because no matter how life and death they are in, they understand each other that the blood flowing in each other's feet is the same kind of blood that belongs to the man who has been tempered on the battlefield.
Even if he is in the Jedi, even if the situation is critical, the first choice is to think about how to recover the capital from the enemy's corpse, and how to take a final bite.
He deduced in his heart that if he were Jinwushu, commanding such a large army and facing the current dilemma, what kind of reaction would he have and what kind of path would he follow? Counterattack, unknowingly, Jing Er frowned and started thinking.
Zhao Kuangyin smiled at Wang Gui in front of him, nodding slightly.
Recently, under his intentional influence, Wang Gui has gradually learned to think about things other than charging and entrapment.
This was a good start. Zhao Kuangyin held his hand, turned his head, and looked at the white clouds in the sky.
Although he knew what Wang Gui was thinking about, and even though he knew the final answer to the question Wang Gui was thinking, he still didn't mean to interrupt Wang Gui's contemplation in the slightest.
Jurchen, Xixia, Tubo and even the centipede, the dead but not stiff Xiliao...
In the next few days, I am afraid there will be no prosperity in the world.
His own great Song dynasty really needed more commanders who could be alone.
"Take the body as a bait, lure the enemy's main force, and counterattack with all your strength!" Wang Gui shouted abruptly. When he raised his head, his face was already pale. Looking at Zhao Kuangyin, he shouted: "Marshal, this is decisive death. By all means, Jin Wushu is about to counterattack!"
"Oh?" Zhao Kuangyin was still the same, and he made a noncommittal reply, without even turning his head.
Wang Gui couldn't help but was even more anxious, and he couldn't take care of the respect and etiquette. He took a step forward and said loudly: "We should immediately stop the withdrawal, call Shunchang and Shuzhou to rest and consolidate the army, call..."
"How much military power can Sakon summon in total? How long will it take to summon the reorganization?" Zhao Kuangyin finally turned his head and looked at Wang Gui with a smile on his mouth: "General Wang, we have negotiated peace talks with Jin Wushu Time can be tomorrow!"
Wang Gui was stunned for a moment. Only then did he realize that he was in a state of urgency, but he had ignored the real problem, but he couldn't help but become more anxious, muttering: "Even if it is too late, at least we can't withdraw these troops first. Let’s go, at least... At least we can also fight..."
"What are you fighting for?!" Zhao Kuangyin gave Wang Gui an unbearable shudder. After all, this guy's mind was only confined to the battlefield: "General Wang really thinks he is brave and can be a failure? "
Wang Gui was knocked by Zhao Kuangyin, but after all he understood, he couldn't help but feel lost for a while.
In fact, he did not understand that since the beginning of the war, the military strength of the Song army and the Jurchen army under the mountain have always been disproportionately different. The plan and strength of the Jurchen army head-on confrontation.
But all the advantages in front of us are only based on the fact that the Jurchens can’t figure out the reality of the Song army, and they have always believed that the strength of the Song army is never below their army. Once the Jurchen army perceives the true strength of the two sides, it will look at it. The seemingly one-sided situation immediately became a glamorous one. As long as the Jurchen army is coming, I am afraid that the host and the object will be transposed immediately. Even if my side has really made preparations and summoned the soldiers and horses of Zakan, it must still be the same. Can't resist.
Therefore, from the beginning, this strategy of the emperor's commander can be regarded as a dangerous strategy. The bet is that the Jurchen army will never go to war with oneself in this situation. Otherwise, as long as the battle continues, I am afraid that everything will happen. The previous hard work will be in vain.
However, looking at the current performance of the Jurchen, I am afraid that it is really going to be a fight!
Jin Wushu did not hesitate to use his body as bait to come in person. With his old traitor and his experience of marching for more than ten years, even if the emperor has the ability to reach the sky and withdraw from the earth, I am afraid that he will not be able to let him. There is no doubt.
Since he dared to go deep into the tiger's den, he would put his life and death out of his hands. Even if he could control the life and death of Jin Wushu in his palm, he might not escape the fate of the Jurchen Iron Cavalry.
Could it be... Is it true that the emperor is really missing a trick, is it that the emperor really does not understand the golden wushu? !
The more he thought about it, the more he didn't understand, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, looking at Zhao Kuangyin who still looked like an old god.
"Wang Gui", Zhao Kuangyin slowly put away the smile at the corner of his mouth: "You thought well, but you still forgot a word I told you."
"War is a bloodless politics, and it is not the battle itself that can really determine the outcome of a war!"
Wang Gui looked at Zhao Kuangyin's serious face, and his heart settled down. He felt in a daze that he had touched something, but he seemed to understand.
"You have never entered the dynasty as an official, and you don't understand the twists and turns here. You are not to blame, but you must at least remember a little bit." Zhao Kuangyin's voice came slowly: "The so-called knowing yourself and the enemy does not only mean that you have to understand. The commander of the enemy army, you still have to try to understand his deputy, his generals and even his king who is thousands of miles away!"
"Remember", Zhao Kuangyin looked at Wang Gui's thoughtful expression, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Soldiers are impermanent, and water is impermanent. Those who can win because of the change of the enemy are the gods!"
