The mountains, rivers and land south of Yanshan Mountain are now covered with spring. Looking around, the land is full of spring.
Such a good time is of course a good time to break out of Shanhaiguan and go straight to Huanglong Mansion - when sending troops to the northeast, you cannot choose to send troops after autumn, otherwise the battle will not last long and the snow will fall.
If hundreds of thousands of troops were trapped in the ice and snow, they would have to make the same mistake as a certain mustache... That's why Zhao Kai chose to send troops in the spring, and then withdraw his troops and garrison them when autumn comes, waiting for the next day. Warm up before beating.
On the road from Shuntianfu New City to Shanhaiguan Fortress, a brigade of red scarf cavalry was surrounding Zhao Kai and others, rushing to the Shanhaiguan base camp to prepare for the gathering of generals for the Liaoshen Campaign... Oh, It should be the last grand military meeting before the full-scale war against gold begins!
At this moment, Zhao Kai only felt high-spirited.
Now millions of troops are marching out of the mountains and seas... Such a grand Northern Expedition has been rare since ancient times, right?
I think that when I first came here, I was stupid and didn’t understand anything, so I took more than 3,000 people out of Kaifeng Mansion and went north to fight against the Jin... Now I think about it, I’m really scared! At that time, I really put my head in my belt to do revolution, no, I was doing feudalism. Not only might he be killed by Jin Bing, but he might also be killed by that foolish king Zhao Ji!
Fortunately, Zhao Ji died early, which allowed Zhao Kai to grow up... and now he can command millions of troops to defeat Huanglong!
Zhao Kai left Shuntianfu New City and headed east. All he saw were the red scarf Song troops rushing to the Shanhaiguan Fortress, as well as the accompanying militiamen and convoys transporting military supplies. One team after another headed east. Whether they were soldiers or civilians, they all looked majestic and high-spirited. From time to time, you can still hear people singing the military song "Man Jiang Hong" in unison!
Several official roads heading east have been widened and padded in advance, enough for ten horses to travel abreast. Now, more than half of the road on the right side of the road is filled with marching teams and convoys that cannot be seen from the beginning to the end. However, the small half of the road on the left side of the official road is empty and is specially used for Tangma riding and horse teams that are eager to move forward. of.
According to the original march plan, Zhao Kai had already entered the Shanhaiguan Bastion. But just before he set off, Shuntian Fucheng welcomed an honored guest—Dali Duan Yu!
This is the person who is said to be the best in martial arts in the world today... Oh, what if the owner of the Eagle Palace in Misty Peak is just a legend!
In order to meet Duan Yu of Dali in Shuntian Mansion, Zhao Kai changed his itinerary and asked Yue Fei and Li Shifu to lead the camp team first, while he stayed in Shuntian Mansion for a few more days.
At this moment, Duan Yu of Dali, who had just been ordered to return to secular life, was riding behind Zhao Kai!
Zhao Kai finally found an "acquaintance", so of course he couldn't easily let him go back to Yunnan to become a governor... He had to let Duan Yu be the audience to witness his great victory.
In this way, when Duan Yu returns to Yunnan, he will honestly be his Doctor Jin Ziguanglu, Inspector Sikong, Yunnan Jiedushi, Shangzhu Kingdom, and King of Dali...
The red scarf warriors on the road looked at their large group coming like a dragon, and naturally looked sideways. Zhao Kai did not let his men use their own black banners and white banners this time, but the Banzhi cavalry following him was still very eye-catching. Not only because the fine cold-forged armor they wore shone in the spring sunshine, but also because the horses they rode were tall and big Qinghai horses that ran with great strides... ..In addition, 70% of the Banzhi cavalry are men and 30% are women. There are so many heroic female soldiers, how attractive they must be to the young and old men marching on the official road!
Seeing these female soldiers, everyone knew that the Song Dynasty official family was probably coming!
Many officers and soldiers in the team recognized this fierce official, so some people immediately cheered.
"Long live the official family... long live! Long live! Long live!"
The cheers spread immediately, one after another, following Zhao Kai's cavalry, constantly passing towards the east, towards Shanhaiguan.
Zhao Kai turned back proudly: "King Dali, how is our army?"
how? Duan Yuxin said: Send a million troops to attack Liaodong... It seems that someone has done this kind of thing in history. Is his name Yang Guang? There are many troops marching on the official road, but there are not many transport vehicles. If the war lasts for a long time, can Zhao Kai's million-strong army really be able to maintain it in Liaodong?
Of course, these words cannot be said in front of Zhao Kai...
Duan Yu forced a smile and said: "The official family is invincible. We will definitely win a great victory in Liaodong. I would like to congratulate your majesty in advance!"
Zhao Kai chuckled, "The battle hasn't started yet, so don't rush to congratulate me...Although I am sure of victory, I still understand the principle that a arrogant soldier will be defeated!"
Duan Yuxin said: Do you really understand? Do you really understand and still do the same thing as Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty?
.......
When the Song Army's "millions of troops came out of the mountains and seas", the Jin Dynasty was also dispatching troops and generals. However, the mobilization of Jin soldiers was divided into two parts: light and dark. Of course, the light part was to mobilize troops to defend Jinzhou.
Jinzhou inside and outside has now become almost a military city. It seems that the entire Great Jin Kingdom is gathering here. The convoys transporting grain, grass, military supplies and equipment gathered here like a large army of ants moving, transporting all kinds of materials that Dajin stationed in Guangning for the protracted war. All day long, all the people coming in and out of Jinzhou Fortress were large groups of people and horse-drawn convoys, trampling the official roads around Jinzhou to pieces.
Marshal Youjianjun of the Kingdom of Jin and Wanyan Zongxian, Duke of Bin Kingdom, were elected as the generals to defend Jinzhou. They were currently resigning from the imperial palace in Guangning Prefecture.
This Wanyan Zongxian, also known as Seri... is a Jin Kingdom general with serious "historical problems"!
In the original history, he took Zhao Gou's mother, Wei Shi, as his concubine, and together with Wei Shi, he gave birth to a pair of younger siblings for Zhao Gou!
But this time his "historical problem" changed... Webster was sent out of Kaifeng Mansion in advance by Zhao Ji, and later followed Zhao Huan to Jinling. He lived a comfortable life in Jinling for many years, and he is still there now. Stay and be taken care of by Zhu Lian. But Wanyan Zongxian's mistake was even more serious. He "accidentally killed" Song Zhuangzong Zhao Ji!
This was a great success at the beginning, so Wanyan Seri was proud of it for a while. But later on, Zhao Kai became more and more fierce, and the upper echelons of the Jin Dynasty began to dislike him... If it weren't for him, Zhao Ji would still be alive now!
As long as Zhao Ji is alive, Zhao Kai will not be the emperor... and according to the behavior of the Zhao and Song dynasties, Zhao Kai, who is domineering and has military power, is likely to be eliminated by Zhao Ji and Zhao Huan.
So on the surface, this Wanyan Zongxian was Zhao Kai’s father-killing enemy, but in fact he was Zhao Kai’s savior!
Of course, Zhao Kai's savior would not be welcomed by the upper echelons of the Kingdom of Jin!
Therefore, in the past few years, he has been idle and idle, living in a muddleheaded way... It was not until recently that Wanyan Zongqian wanted to find an unlucky guy from the clan to guard Jinzhou, and he did not think of this culprit who brought harm to the Jin Dynasty. Wanyan Zongxian.
It was all his fault, so he should take the blame for Jinzhou!
In addition, although he is Zhao Kai's life-savior, Zhao Kai will never spare him just because of this life-saving grace... Zhao Kai is a filial son! If a filial son catches the enemy who killed his father, why should he be cut into pieces?
So when Wanyan Zongxian went to Jinzhou, he must live or die with Jinzhou!
"Seli, you are the hero who killed Zhao Ji... Now his son is coming to attack Jinzhou again. Do you have the confidence to keep his life under Jinzhou City?"
The one who was cheering Wanyan Zongxian up was Wanyan Liang. He didn't think there was anything wrong with Seri shooting Zhao Ji... This is what a man would do!
"Your Majesty," Wanyan Zongxian said with a sullen expression, "Don't worry... I have ministers guarding Jinzhou City. Even if Zhao Kai has millions of people, he can't break the city! If he really stops, We have been unable to conquer the city for a long time. If we, the Great Golden Heavenly Soldiers, take the opportunity to attack us again, and if I come to attack you in the middle, there is no guarantee that we can really kill Zhao Kai!"
"Okay, okay!" Wan Yanliang nodded repeatedly, "What I want is a hero like you... I will give you three glasses of wine to make a heroic journey!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Wanyan Zongxian smiled and saluted Wanyan Liang, then took three glasses of wine from Wanyan Liang's chamberlain and drank them all in one gulp.
After watching him finish his drink, Wanyan Zongqian, who was sitting next to Wanyan Liang, spoke up, "Seli, the survival of the country this time depends on the gains and losses of Jinzhou, and you only have 40,000 troops on hand, which is not enough to fight in the field. Defeat the enemy's army, so you must not go into battle easily, you must guard the city... The lonely king has asked people to transport as much food as possible into the city. The food stored in Jinzhou City is enough for your people to sit and eat Three years, just rest assured and stick to it.”
For the battle of Jinzhou, Wanyan Zongqian, Wanyan Zongbi, and Wanyan Zongpan still made two preparations.
Of course it would be best to gather and annihilate the main force of the Song army under Jinzhou City. If you can't defeat it...then defend Jinzhou to delay time. In fact, there is no need to delay for three years. As long as it is delayed until this winter, the Song Army will most likely have to withdraw.
Because the winter in Jinzhou is really covered with ice and snow, even the sea surface can freeze several feet!
How could the Song army from Guan Nei withstand such a cold? If they can't succeed in a strong attack, they will definitely have to retreat before winter comes.
Wanyan Zongxian smiled and said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, a certain family will definitely hold on to the end this time...and Jinzhou is not far from Anshi City. Back then, Emperor Taizong Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty had to withdraw his troops from Anshi because of the arrival of winter. Zhao No matter how good Zhao Kai is at fighting, can he still surpass Li Shimin? Besides, I, Dajin, are not comparable to Goguryeo. Even if Zhao Kai fights for three years, he will not be able to capture Jinzhou City!"
Wanyan Liang thought of Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty at this time, and immediately continued Wanyan Zongxian's words: "How can Zhao Kai compare with Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty? He now has an army of millions to attack Liaodong, and he did not consider the food and grass for this million army at all. How to deal with the baggage? If he really cannot conquer it for a long time, he will have his troops under Jinzhou City. When the weather turns cold and the ground freezes, he will have no choice but to die!"
