It’s not that Dashui is coming, because Dashui doesn’t speak Chinese. Not to mention shouting "The flood is coming" while the water is flowing surgingly. It must be a human being who can shout like this.
Moreover, it is very close to the Yellow River. If the Yellow River water really overflows, it will rush down at a very fast speed. People can only run to higher places. It is impossible to run in front of the flood and shout at the same time.
So the cry of "The flood is coming" was shouted by the officers and soldiers of the Song and Jin armies who were chasing!
Among them, the ones who ran away were of course the Song army. They were several thousand Liu Yanqing's troops and some other miscellaneous troops who had collapsed from the Wannian Xindi battlefield. At the beginning, there were still 20,000 to 30,000 people, but then they ran away and dispersed. When they reached the Wuzhang River, only a few thousand people were left. The situation was quite bad!
In this morning's battle, Liu Yanqing was actually the fastest Lieutenant. He was also very clever. When he saw something was wrong, he took the lead and ran away without saying a word.
But he was confused in the choice of running direction. He did not run east or west, but ran south. And to the south of Wannian Xindi is Kaifeng Mansion! For the victorious Jin Bing, of course they have to go to Kaifeng Mansion to try their luck. If the officials of the Song Dynasty were frightened and collapsed, couldn't they make another big deal?
Yes, what Wanyan Zongwang wants now is to get another blackmail, instead of killing the official Zhao Ji and the prince Zhao Huan in Kaifeng Prefecture.
That's a given!
Wanyan Zongwang was not stupid. He knew that if Zhao Ji and Zhao Huan were gone, the one who would take the throne would definitely be the mad king Zhao Kai.
Zhao Kai is so fierce. He shoots Liu Yanzong with arrows and picks up horses with spears!
And this guy is not only fierce, but also very smart... If he wasn't smart, he would have stayed in Kaifeng Prefecture and waited to be "flooded" instead of wandering to Taiyuan Prefecture.
If Zhao Kai hadn't been showing off in Taiyuan Mansion, Wanyan Zongwang might have become anxious and flooded Kaifeng Mansion. But with Zhao Kai outside, Zong Wang must keep Zhao Ji and Zhao Huan.
No matter what, the throne of the Song Dynasty cannot be handed over to Zhao Kai to inherit.
So Zhao Ji didn't have to leave the city at all, and Li Gang didn't have to worry about Jin Bing really digging a new embankment that lasted ten thousand years... They were all deceived by Wanyan Zongwang!
After winning the battle at Wannian Xindi, Wanyan Zongwang, Wanyan Yanmu, Wanyan Zongbi, and Wanyanchang each led an army with more than 10,000 cavalry, and pressed south together. Among them, Zong Wang's troops happened to be following Liu Yanqing, chasing him all the way!
Those who chased Liu Yanqing's troops all the way to the Wuzhang River were the more than ten thousand cavalry led by Wanyan Zongwang himself.
Originally, Liu Yanqing's defeated troops and Wanyan Zongwang's pursuing troops did not come towards the Zhenshui Temple where Zhao Ji was located, because it had been raining and the visibility was very poor. Liu Yanqing's defeated troops and Wanyan Zongwang's pursuing troops couldn't see the lights around Zhenshui Temple at all. They were still several miles away from Zhenshui Temple where Zhao Ji was.
That's why the shouts Zhao Ji heard were so hazy and vague.
The shouts from both sides were temporarily interrupted because Liu Yanqing's troops were forced to the Wuzhang River and had no choice but to form a formation with their backs against the water. Therefore, the Jin soldiers also suspended their pursuit and began to gather their formation to catch their breath.
But before both sides could finish their preparations, the rain that had been falling for several hours suddenly stopped, and a bright moon appeared in the sky.
As soon as the day was fine, Liu Yanqing and Wanyan Zongwang's men immediately saw the lights from the Song army camp around Zhenshui Temple.
Now Liu Yanqing no longer wanted to fight, and immediately led his men to Zhenshui Guan. And Wanyan Zongwang didn't know who was here at Zhenshui Temple? Seeing Liu Yanqing running that way, he followed him and chased him. He also asked his subordinates to continue shouting "The flood is coming" in Chinese to scare the Song army.
The two sides chased and escaped, and soon rushed to the camp of Zhao Ji's headquarters.
However, Zhao Ji, who fled in person, actually led a ragtag group that looked a bit like an elite. Except for the 2,000-strong Victory Army led by Zhang Shizheng, the commander of the Victory Army, which was an army that could really fight, the remaining more than 10,000 people were very amateurs at best. That is, the Royal Guard of Honor. Not only do they not know how to fight tough battles, they don't even know how to build strongholds. Moreover, their marching ability was not good. After walking for a long time, they were so tired that their backs ached and they could no longer do the work of the engineering team.
So when they set up camp around Zhenshui Temple, they didn't dig trenches or erect fences. They just made a circle with carts and surrounded Zhenshui Temple.
Of course, such a circle of vehicles and a group of mobs could not stop the influx of Liu Yanqing's defeated troops and the Jin soldiers who kept driving them away.
Therefore, the defeated troops led by Liu Yanqing broke through the car formation and rushed to the mountain gate of Zhenshui Temple without any obstruction. And the Jin soldiers of Wanyan Zongwang's army, who had been chasing them for dozens of miles, also followed them into the chariot formation of Zhao Ji's imperial camp!
Moreover, the Jin soldiers under Wanyan Zongwang shouted in Chinese "The flood is coming", which also caused the Kaifeng soldiers, who were already afraid that Kaifeng Mansion would be flooded by the Yellow River, to fall into the greatest panic. Many Kaifeng soldiers who were quick-thinking had already He ran away under the cover of night.
Just as the Song army outside the Zhenshui Temple fell into panic, they suddenly saw that the gate of the originally closed Zhenshui Temple was suddenly pushed open, and then a large group of infantry and horse soldiers with torches and lanterns rushed from inside. come out.
As these powerful-looking horse infantry troops came out of the Taoist temple, countless voices shouted at the same time: "The Taoist Master, the Emperor, is here. The soldiers of the Song Army are working hard to kill the thieves!"
Is the leader, Emperor Daojun, here?
Being protected by a group of Liu family soldiers all the way, Liu Yanqing was a little dizzy and felt that he was hearing hallucinations!
Isn’t the Taojun Emperor, the leader of the church, a current official?
Why is he here?
"Lieutenant, we seem to have bumped into the official conquest team!"
"Captain... Xiaodi seems to have seen Master Tong. Could it be that the official family is really here? What should we do?"
"Lieutenant, look over there... there seems to be a general with a golden helmet and a big horse. Could he be an official?"
Liu Yanqing was old and had run all the way. His energy had long since failed and he was sleepy to death, but there were still some sharp-eyed soldiers among the soldiers around him. Even in such a dark night, I still recognized Tong Guan from a distance, and even saw Zhao Ji wearing a golden helmet!
"Quick, quick, quick, help me to protect the official family!" Liu Yanqing's body couldn't bear it anymore, but his mind was still very clear.
Since Tong Guan is here, then the official family must be too! The official is actually on the verge of war. Is he as crazy as King Yun?
It seems that Zhao Ji hasn't sobered up yet, otherwise he wouldn't have the guts to get out of the Zhenshui Temple - what if drinking makes things worse? If Zhao Ji hadn't had a few more drinks, he would have taken the official boat to the south bank of the Wuzhang River by now.
And now... Tong Guan, Gao Qiu, and Zhao Shu, who had left the Taoist temple, were all looking towards the Wuzhang River. The official ship seemed to have left the dock!
What should I do?
Zhao Ji was a little sober from his wine, and he could see something was wrong. There was chaos outside Zhenshui Temple. It seemed like there was fighting everywhere, people were screaming everywhere, and there were shouts of "The flood is coming, the flood is coming" everywhere.
The Jin soldiers and Song soldiers have been mixed together. The Jin people may still be carrying out organized killings, while the Song army... In addition to the Shengjie soldiers, Ban Zhi, and Liu Yanqing's personal soldiers guarding Zhao Ji, Apart from that, they have no organization and are just carrying out instinctive resistance.
However, the rebel soldiers of the Song Army who were approaching Zhenshui Guanshan Gate still discovered that Zhao Ji did not escape, but even faced the battle. This was really unprecedented!
The morale of the soldiers of the Song Army suddenly rose, and they shouted as if they had been given blood: "Long live, long live, long live!"
There were even some brave enough Song soldiers who shouted long live and launched a counterattack, causing the Jin soldiers in front of them to retreat steadily, which also surprised Wanyan Zongwang.
In the end what happened? Why did those Song people suddenly "explode"?

Asking for a recommendation vote! And I wish you all a Merry Christmas and happy every day.
