Outside Taiyuan City, on the top of Dongshan Mountain.
Wanyan Xiabao, who had lost his biological eldest brother, put his palms on his eyes and looked into the distance. A layer of mist-like smoke floats over the distant valley, wide, flat and diffuse.
"The enemy should advance on foot. If it is mainly infantry, there should be thirty or forty thousand of them!" Wanyan Xiebao paused for a while, "If it is a cavalryman with one person and two horses, that is seven or eight thousand cavalry... ...Dad, there don’t seem to be as many people in the Song Army as we do, so why don’t we start a battle under Taiyuan City, maybe we can kill Zhao Kai and avenge our elder brother.”
"Hmph!" Wanyan Zonghan was standing next to his son Xie Bao with a disappointed expression on his face. His second son was much worse than his eldest son. His belly was like a straight tube without any twists and turns. It seems that it is impossible to train him to the level of Shi Yema...
Hearing Wanyan Zonghan's cold snort, Xie Bao didn't dare to speak, so he could only turn his eyes for help to a short and sturdy man with a strong face next to Zong Han.
This man looked even more ferocious than Zong Han, with his brows furrowed and his eyes blazing. He just stared at the valley in the distance and didn't notice Xie Bao's look for help.
Zong Han said at this time: "Yin Shu is good, what do you think?"
This short and stocky man turned out to be Wanyan Yinshuke, one of the two powerful generals under Wanyan Zonghan. He had been responsible for the siege of Taiyuan Mansion. Now he has withdrawn from the siege of Taiyuan Mansion and arranged for his troops to withdraw to Xinzhou, while he himself is on standby with Wanyan Zonghan.
Hearing Zong Han's question, Yin Shuke frowned and said: "Deputy Marshal, the partial division of the Song army in front of us is certainly easy to deal with... But what about the Song army? Lou Shi sent people just now The newspaper reported that this partial army was under the banner of "capital control of Han". It seems that King Yun Zhao Kai has returned to Zhending Mansion and will soon join Kou Yanshan Mansion!
In addition, in the past few days, reports have been reported from Xinzhou, Daizhou and other places that the local Song Dynasty remnants have received news from the Song Dynasty's Hebei Marshal's Mansion that the Second Prince and the others were flooded with Yellow River water by the army of King Yun Zhao Kai in Liyang, so they were flooded with water from the Yellow River. Trapped in Liyang City and unable to move!
After Zhao Kai, the King of Yun, flooded our East Route Army by flooding the Yellow River, he was ordered to lead his troops north to Yanshanfu Road. When passing by Zhending, he happened to meet us heading east, so..."
Zong Han remained silent, this news sounded very true!
Wanyan Zongwang is so capable of fighting. If Zhao Kai hadn't digged the Yellow River dam without respecting martial ethics, the East Route Army might have reached Kaifeng Prefecture now... If that were the case, Zhao Kai would not have come to quell the Ding Army and Zhending Army. Mansion! Dad is surrounded, can he just ignore it?
Zong Han sighed and was about to speak when a drum sound like rolling thunder suddenly came from the mountain pass ahead. It should be that Wanyan Loushi commanded the army and the Song army was fighting.
Although Zong Han had decided to evacuate Taiyuan Mansion, his heart was still cold, so he arranged for Wanyan Lou's room to lead thousands of elites to test it again.
If the partial division of the Song army coming to Taiyuan is easy to deal with, then tens of thousands of people will be left to continue to besiege Taiyuan. If all comers are tough, then there is nothing we can do. It is important to save the East Route Army of the second prince Wanyan Zongwang and to defend Yanshan Mansion...
And this battle that took place at the foot of Dongshan caused Lou Shi to suffer a little loss... Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, and Li Xiaozhong all got together, how could they avoid getting hurt? Moreover, Huang Wuji, Xiang Ke, Dong Jingang, Liu Yan, and Yang Weizhong are also tough players! The troops they led had just won battles at Niangziguan and the Pingding Army. Their morale was high, and they were all brave and courageous in the battle.
In comparison, Wanyan Loushi was a bit unable to perform... His mission was not to fight desperately, but to test. So after suffering a small loss, we withdrew our troops and retreated to Dongshan.
Seeing Lou Shi's troops retreating, Wanyan Zonghan sighed and said to Yin Shuke: "I didn't expect the partial divisions of the Song Army to be so strong... I really underestimated them before! Withdraw your troops, we have to get past Feihu quickly Dao, get to Yizhou before Zhao Kai and defeat him in Yizhou before you can rescue the second prince!"
...
To the north of Kaifeng Mansion is Chenqiaoyi.
This place of Longxing in the Song Dynasty is now the headquarters of the Jin Bing East Route Army, and it has also become the liveliest and richest place outside Kaifeng Prefecture today!
That’s right, it’s lively and prosperous!
Chenqiaoyi, which was originally a big town, has become very lively because of the gathering of Jin soldiers and the constant flow of young men and women from the capital area of the Song Dynasty being plundered by gold thieves and detained here! The town of Chenqiaoyi no longer had enough housing, so Wanyan Zongwang had to dig a long trench around the town. He also piled earth walls along the trench, erected railings, and circled a large camp to accommodate the people. His own army and captured population... Of course these captured Song people will not have a good place to go. If they can reach the north alive, they will definitely be slaves of the Jurchen nobles!
The people of the Song Dynasty, who were originally good people, lived in such a blessed land at the feet of the emperor. Although they were not necessarily very wealthy, it was not difficult to have enough food and clothing in this prosperous age. Suddenly, his family was destroyed by a group of demons from the north, and he was robbed and made a slave. Naturally, he cried and cried... But who would sympathize with these poor people?
With the crying of the poor people and the movement of tens of thousands of golden soldiers (including Ali Xi) coming and going, this Chenqiao Station has never been so noisy as it is now!
As time goes by, the weather in the Chenqiaoyi area becomes hotter and hotter. Although the climate in the late Northern Song Dynasty was much cooler than that in later generations, April in the lunar calendar was already equivalent to May in the Gregorian calendar in later generations. The climate around Kaifeng Mansion began to become humid and hot, which made the Jin soldiers who came from the bitter cold land in the north very uncomfortable.
But no matter how afraid of the heat these golden soldiers are, they are reluctant to leave the area around Kaifeng Mansion... because this area is too rich!
If you break a city at random, the wealth and population inside it will be comparable to any capital city in the Liao Kingdom except Nanjing Xijin City!
Moreover, the force possessed by these cities filled with treasures is too weak! There are clearly many young men in the city, but few who can fight. Most of the cities were not seriously fortified, nor were they defended by the Song Dynasty's imperial army. Dingtian was just a few people who needed equipment but no equipment, armor but no armor, and martial arts but no martial arts. The Dajin soldiers could even approach the city wall with their armor and shields alone, use bows and arrows to suppress the defenders on top of the city, and then set up ladders and hit them casually to break the city!
So every once in a while, a large group of Jurchen soldiers would escort prisoners and carts of goods and food back to Chenqiaoyi... It has been almost three months since mid-January until now. !
Because they were so happy while robbing money, Wanyan Zongwang, Wanyan Zongbi and Wanyan Yanmu all forgot about going to Hebei to eliminate the troops of King Yun Zhao Kai. Wanyan Zonghan, whose son died, is still worried about the safety of these three guys and wants to rescue them... And where do they need rescue now? They were so happy!
Nowadays, most of the slightly better houses in Chenqiaoyi's town have been used to store various goods... The piles are almost too big to hold!
And the biggest problem that Wanyan Zongwang, Wanyan Zongbi and Wanyan Yanmu are facing now is how can they transport so much property and captives back to the north?
Everything else seems unimportant compared to this.
Since there was a relatively capable "King Yun's Army" to the north of the Yellow River, and in Zhongmu County to the west of Kaifeng Prefecture, another "King Qin's Western Army Camp" appeared with an astonishing scale.
Although Zong Wang, Zong Bi, and Yan Mu were confident in defeating the two Song armies, they were worried that the expansion packs and prisoners would be lost or escaped during the battle.
So they really want to reach an agreement with the Song Dynasty court in Kaifeng City... But they are worried that once the Kaifeng court learns of the situation outside the city, especially the defeat of the Jin soldiers in Hebei, it will be very difficult It is possible that peace talks will be stopped.
Therefore, they can only insist on getting the hostages first, and then lift the siege of Kaifeng Mansion!
Except for the hostages, the other conditions were lowered again and again... until they were a bit weak!
