"What time is it?"
"Your Majesty, it's already Haishi."
Li Yunze yawned and looked at Luoyang City not far away with a half-smile, "Fan Zhixu, Mr. Fan, what a great official power."
He had been wandering around Luoyang for so long, and Fan Zhixu in the city actually refused to come out to greet him.
The arrogant faces of the soldiers and officials were really displayed vividly.
It seems that he has completely forgotten that he just lost the battle and lost the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers!
Li Yunze looked down on the scholar-officials of the Song Dynasty. One of the important reasons was that because of their own methods and incompetence, they caused misery to countless people and even abandoned their homes and lives. However, these scholar-officials were able to die a good death and move to another place at ease. If you continue to be an official, you can still leave your name in the history books!
Apart from anything else, among the many Song soldiers who died in Qianqiu Town a few days ago, how many of their names can be recorded in history books and known to future generations?
Seeing that it was already this time and Fan Zhixu was still showing off in front of him, Li Yunze suddenly felt very boring.
There is no point in wasting time with such a scum. He simply called Han Shizhong, "Lead the troops into the city and bring Fan Zhixu to the king. The other ministries will take over the troops, horses and food. Zhang Xiaochun, you go take over Luoyang City."
People from various departments took action one after another and went about their own affairs.
If there is any good thing about the disastrous defeat caused by Fan Zhixu, it is that the troops he led were defeated and turned into a rout, and there were not many senior generals left.
It is basically for the various departments of the Western Army to absorb and gather the defeated troops, and the effect is definitely to get twice the result with half the effort.
Han Shizhong rushed into the city with hundreds of horses and came back in less than half an hour.
The horse galloped up to Li Yunze, and a figure in purple robes was thrown down from the horse.
He turned over and dismounted and saluted Li Yunze, "Your Majesty, Fan Zhixu has been brought here."
Fan Zhixu, who was stunned by the fall, stumbled to his feet.
Turning his eyes, he saw Li Yunze who was surrounded by the generals. He immediately pointed at him angrily and yelled, "Prince Kang, you are so brave!"
The cold wind howled in the military camp, blowing countless torches.
The flickering firelight illuminated Li Yunze's expressionless face. He sat on the horse and looked at Fan Zhixu silently without saying a word.
"I am the imperial envoy appointed by the imperial court to declare peace. How dare you instruct the second and third sons to hold me hostage in order to rebel?"
The more he scolded, the more angry he became: "You are an idle prince, secretly amassing private soldiers, secretly seizing military power, and treating the laws of the court as nothing. I will definitely impeach you!"
Many soldiers around him watched and listened silently, but no one said anything.
Li Yunze, who was sitting on the horse, finally asked, "I ordered you to wait for the arrival of my troops. Why do you keep giving orders to send out troops privately?"
Fan Zhixu stood up proudly, "I am an official appointed by the government as a messenger. How can I obey the orders of an idle prince?"
Li Yunze twitched his mouth and stood up holding his knees. "In the battle of Qianqiu Town, your incompetence caused tens of thousands of soldiers to die on the battlefield. Can you plead guilty?"
"What is my crime?" Fan Zhixu looked indignant. "The armies are incompetent. What does it have to do with me if they can't defeat the Jin army?"
"This is the first time I heard that defeating the battle has nothing to do with the commander." Li Yunze walked up to Fan Zhixu with his sword in hand and looked at him condescendingly. "If you say so, then Zhao Kuo shouldn't be killed." Marquis Zhuge Wu, who has been scolded for thousands of years and whom you civil servants admire the most, should not have killed Ma Su of Diujieting."
"It's ridiculous."
Fan Zhixu, whose face was impatient, simply waved his sleeves and looked around at the many soldiers, "Are you still a general of the Song Dynasty? If so, quickly capture this rebel!"
The surroundings were still eerily quiet, with only the sound of flames roaring in the cold wind.
"There is no cure."
With a cry, Li Yunze pulled out his sword, "You will only kill more people if trash like you lives."
"What are you going to do?!" Seeing the cold light shining in Li Yunze's hand, Fan Zhixu finally became frightened. "I am an official of the imperial court..."
'puff! '
"moron."
Taking out his sword and wiping it clean, Li Yunze just glanced at Fan Zhixu, who was still staring, and turned to leave.
I yelled for a long time like a rebel on the left and a traitor on the right. Finally, I asked what I wanted to do. What else could this be if I wasn't mentally retarded.
What is really sad is that the people who call the shots in this poor Song Dynasty are all such idiots.
Now Li Yunze doesn't even want to act anymore, and he does everything directly.
He first sent an envoy to Guanzhong and ordered all the troops and horses that could be mobilized from the area to be mobilized. At the same time, all the money and food transported from Sichuan and Shu were also transported here.
Then he asked King Qin's soldiers and horses from the Jingxiang land in the south to gather here. Likewise, money and food must be brought over.
The west of Beijing was massacred and plundered by Nianhan, and the fertile land was in a mess.
Food and everything else had been taken away, and the remaining people were asking Li Yunze for food. He couldn't supply so many mouths just by relying on the space-time gate, and he had to get money and food from all over the place.
At the same time, he also summoned rebels from all over the country. As long as they were under the banner of resisting gold, they would be given the opportunity to temporarily join the army and enjoy the treatment of sergeants.
In short, it is just one sentence, use all means to increase your strength.
Li Yunze is also consolidating the armies, and no longer has so many names. Basically, they are concentrated in a few troops of Han Shizhong and others.
Thanks to the fact that the top management of the Western Army was almost wiped out, it is now much more convenient to do this kind of thing of breaking up and supplementing others.
Moreover, after what happened to Li Yanxian before, Li Yunze also concentrated on looking for famous anti-gold generals among various ministries.
Brothers such as Wu Jie and Wu Lin, brothers Liu Qi and Liu Xi, and Qu Duan, the second-largest thorn in Han Shizhong's list, were all promoted by Li Yunze one by one.
The strategy adopted by the Jin army to encircle the point to mobilize reinforcements and wait for the decisive battle cannot be said to be bad.
But this strategy gave Li Yunze the opportunity to consolidate his strength and boost his morale to regain the strength to fight.
When the soldiers and horses from Guanzhong, who had been scraped from the ground, arrived one after another, Li Yunze saw that the time was approaching the second year of Jingkang, and he no longer waited to mobilize the army and headed west in a mighty way.
The Jin army, which had been waiting for a long time, kept sending troops and horses to harass and test.
The number of soldiers and horses under Li Yunze's command was extremely large, but they seemed to be very bloated. Many times, some of the troops on the periphery were beaten up by the golden soldiers who came and went like the wind, but they were slow to respond and lacked reinforcements.
After several successes in succession, Wanyan Yinshuke, who was responsible for the delays along the way, keenly sensed that something was wrong.
After all, although most of the Song army was weak, they still had core troops, especially the main force that had killed Lou Shi, but had never attacked.
He judged that the Song army was setting a trap, so he asked all ministries to be cautious and not to rush forward greedily.
For the experienced generals of the Jin Army, this was not a difficult task.
But there was only one person who refused.
This person is Wan Yan Huo Nu.
As the eldest son of Wanyan Lou's family, when his father and younger brother were both killed in battle, he had to act out whether it was for revenge or to take over his father's prestige.
So on the first day of the second year of Jingkang, Wanyan Huonv took advantage of the Song army's holiday and detoured around Sishui to sneak attack on a Song army and successfully won a great victory.
It stands to reason that retreating troops at this time is naturally a great achievement.
But he was greedy and led his troops in pursuit, hoping to maximize the results.
Then he encountered a surprise attack by Han Shizhong's cavalry on the bank of the Sishui River.
Li Yunze concentrated all the established cavalry in the hands of Han Shizhong, so that the number of victorious army cavalry under his command exceeded 20,000.
With such a huge scale, a surprise attack and Han Shizhong's personal command, Wanyan Huonv was defeated without any surprise.
Then they were chased all the way by Han Shizhong, and finally the remaining troops were surrounded on Gubai Ridge.
After learning the news, Yin Shuke was very angry and cursed for the mistake.
Because it is obvious that the Song army wants to learn their tactics and come to surround the point for reinforcements.
"Should we save him or not?" In Rongyang City, dozens of miles away from Gubai Ridge, Wanyanba Li quickly fiddled with the fire in front of him. "If you want to save him, hurry up, otherwise it will be too late."
Wanyan Shehehe, who was standing next to him, first sneered at Wanyan's live daughter for not being as capable as Nai's father, and then said, "Why don't we ask Marshal Dutong and the others to come over with troops?"
Everyone participating in the military discussion looked at him sideways and didn't even bother to pay attention to him.
That is to say, Yin Shuke, as the general, could only explain a few words for him: "For the Song Army, it is best to recruit reinforcements. It doesn't matter if they can't recruit them. By the time Marshal Dutong and the others came over, the bones of the living woman had already melted." "
Wanyan Tuhesu also laughed: "Song Jun has been holding back for so long, and we have harassed so many outlying military camps, just to seize the opportunity to take a bite. Now that he has taken a bite, how can he let go."
"knew."
Zheyi waved his hands impatiently, "Just tell me whether to save him or not."
"Save." As the leader of the raiding legion, Yin Shuke made his final determination, "No matter whether we succeed or not, we have to give it a try. If we succeed, we can take the living girl with us. If we fail, there is nothing we can do."
We must save an entire ten thousand households.
Since the beginning of the Jin Dynasty, there has never been a time when an entire 10,000 households were lost in one battle.
If we really lose all the live girls, the responsibility is too great to bear.
Several tens of thousands of households nodded in agreement.
As for Yelu Mawu, who made up the numbers, as a descendant of the Khitan, he said nothing from the beginning to the end.
There are 60,000 households in the Yin Shu Ke Department. In addition to the Wan Yan Huo Nu who are surrounded, there are also Yin Shu Ke Headquarters, Wanyan Fouhe, Wanyan Pulling away from the Su, Wanyan Tu Hesu, and Yelu Ma Wu.
Of course, because of the continuous heavy losses suffered by Li Yunze before, all departments were dissatisfied.
At this time, the entire army went to Gubai Ridge for rescue. Only more than 30,000 people could be mobilized, and they were a mixture of infantry and cavalry.
When they finally arrived at Gubai Ridge the next day, nearly 100,000 Song troops had gathered in front of them!
Li Yunze endured being bitten several times, waiting for the opportunity to bite him back.
Now that the opportunity has come, of course, we must act quickly and not miss the opportunity.
The elite troops from each unit arrived at the battlefield in an almost forced march.
Seeing the dense Song Army formation in front of him, Yin Shuke was stunned. The first thought in his mind was, 'How about withdrawing first? '
He knew very well Li Yunze's plan, which was to weaken the Jin army as much as possible before the decisive battle at Bianliang City.
If it weren't for the idiot Huo Nu, his Yin Shu could easily lead his troops to fight and retreat, constantly harassing the tired Song army, and then join the final battle.
But now...it's all the living girl's fault!
He is good at silver and cannot afford to lose an entire ten thousand households at once.
But now, fear arose in his heart.
The battle where Lou Shi died a few months ago appeared before his eyes.
It turns out that the Song Dynasty also had an army capable of fighting, and someone actually gathered them all!
