"Dajin, Daijin, why is Daijin gone... It can't be done!"
In the early morning of that day, Wanyan Zonghan's thunderous roar suddenly rang out in Yan'er Village on Yanzi Mountain outside Ya'er Pagoda City on Kerimu Road in the Kingdom of Jin.
I don’t know if he really has some kind of telepathy. These days, Wanyan Zonghan always dreams that the Jin soldiers in the East were completely defeated by the evil Song invaders, and his motherland, Jin, also perished under the iron heel of the Song army.
But tonight, as soon as he closed his eyes, he dreamed of Wanyan Zongqian, who was too skinny to look human, and Wanyan Zongbi, who was covered in blood, crying to him, saying that everyone was gone...
Although it was a dream, who knew Wanyan Zonghan in the dream? He vaguely thought that the Great Jin Kingdom was really gone (in fact, it was gone). Can he not be anxious? Can you not get angry? When I get anxious and angry, of course I start yelling.
And his roar frightened a beautiful Bai Yi girl who was sleeping soundly next to him to wake up, and she also let out a piercing scream.
The two drowsy Jurchen warriors guarding the door of Zong Han's bedroom were frightened by Zong Han's roar and the scream of the Bai Yi beauty.
The two of them thought Zong Han had met an assassin, so they quickly pulled out their machetes, pushed open the door of Zong Han's bedroom, shouted "Escort! Escort!" and rushed in.
And when these two guys yelled, the entire Yan'er Village was alarmed.
This mountain stronghold is now the command center of the Dajin Western Expedition, and it is also the political center of the entire Crimea Road. Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Xiebao, father and son, both lived in Yanerzhai. The Ya'er Tower City at the foot of Yan'er Village is now the old camp of Dajin's Western Expeditionary Army.
The city of Alta was originally a commercial stronghold established by the Eastern Roman Empire on the Crimean Peninsula. Two years ago, in May of the first year of Dajin Tianjuan, it was occupied by an army of 10,000 people led by Wanyan Xiebao.
After occupying the city of Ya'erta, Wanyan Xiebao immediately fell in love with the beautiful sea views, mountains and dangerous terrain in the area of Ya'erta - the terrain of the Crimean Peninsula is mainly plain, but in the southern part of the peninsula There are three rows of mountains standing there. Among them, the row of mountains to the south facing the Black Sea is the tallest and most dangerous. Ya'er Tower City is located on the southern slope of this row of mountains. It is absolutely easy to defend and difficult to attack!
Don't look at the fact that the Dajin Western Expedition has been invincible since it arrived in the Western Regions. It defeated the Kipchak tribes, the Alan Kingdom and the Rakshasa Kingdom, and also uprooted all the Roman strongholds on the Crimean Peninsula. However, because the nation's population is too small to withstand the attrition, let alone lose any battle, Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Xiebao, father and son, have always felt guilty, otherwise they would not have sent envoys to Wanyan Liang to ask for help. .
When Xie Bao, who felt guilty, saw the dangerous terrain in the area around Yaerta City, he immediately suggested to his father that he move the old camp of the Dajin Western Expedition from the largest city on the Crimean Peninsula, the port city of Chesonis (located in the plain area). It was also a city in the Roman Empire) and moved to the rugged city of Yalta.
Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Xiebao, father and son, had been assassinated many times while marching and fighting in the Rakshasa Kingdom and the Crimean Peninsula, so the two of them simply moved to a mountaintop outside Ya'er Tower. They lived in the village and gave the village the name Yanerzhai.
Because some people roared, some screamed, and some shouted for "protection," Yan'er Village, which was already heavily guarded, immediately entered a wartime state.
The fat man Xie Bao, who was sleeping soundly, was also woken up by someone below. As soon as he heard that his father was probably assassinated, he immediately became anxious... He was not a true filial son who did not want to take over as the leader immediately. Moreover, in today's Western Expeditionary Army, no one can threaten Wanyan Xiebao's second-in-command position.
Wanyan Zonghan was the only legitimate son. Although there were several bastards, none of them were older. It was impossible for a group of children to be heirs.
Moreover, the current situation of Dajin's Western Expeditionary Army is obvious. Anyone who is not particularly good at fighting cannot be the leader at all.
After the Western Expedition began, Wanyan Xiebao behaved particularly bravely. He no longer looked like a bear who was repeatedly defeated when he encountered the Song army, but looked as if he was possessed by the God of War. Be brave and brave, be resourceful and resourceful. Especially when fighting against the Rakshasa coalition, he was both smart and brave. He used more than 10,000 troops like a hundred thousand troops, and defeated the Rakshasa coalition.
The Jurchen generals who followed him to attack the Rakshasa kingdoms all felt sorry for Young Master Xiebao and the Kingdom of Jin... If Young Master Xiebao could achieve this level when he was in the East, the Song Dynasty would have It will be destroyed, and the big guys don’t need to travel so far to the west.
Although it was a pity, everyone recognized Xie Bao's ability.
Precisely because Xie Bao's military skills were recognized by everyone, his status in the army was unshakable. Of course, he and his father Zong Han could truly realize the filial piety of father and son.
When the filial son Wanyan Xiebao heard that his father might be assassinated, he immediately became anxious. He hurriedly asked someone to fetch his chain mail and put it on his body. He also put on his helmet and picked up a machete. He thought it was not safe, so he Someone brought a shield. Then, under the protection of more than a dozen soldiers, he ran towards the courtyard where his father, Wanyan Zonghan, lived.
By the time he ran to the place, Zong Han's courtyard had long been calm inside and outside, and he could only be heard yelling there alone: "What's wrong with the old king? Is the old king okay? Is the old king already... ....”
As soon as he reached this point, Wanyan Zonghan's urgent and fast voice came from the room, "Xiebao, stop yelling, your father and I are fine... He just had a bad nightmare." Shocked!"
Hearing his father's voice, which was still full of anger, Wanyan Xiabao finally breathed a sigh of relief. He quickly threw his shield away from the soldiers around him, put away his scimitar, and then strode into Zong Han's bedroom.
Zong Han's bedroom was large, empty, and had no decorations. There were some weapons hung on the stone walls, and there were many lampstands plugged into the walls, all of which were lit, so the bedroom was still very bright.
Zong Han was sitting on the bed, wearing only a purple silk robe, with a gloomy face. When he saw his son wearing chain mail walking in, he just sighed, "Xie Bao, my father just dreamed of Auben and Wu." The magic is gone... They told me that Dajin is gone! Let the southerners destroy it! After seeing Mari, Hasiya has not come back for a long time, and he has not even sent a messenger. It is because of this matter !”
It turned out that Zonghan's nightmare was not without some basis. He and the Nestorian monk Mali Hasiya whom Xiebao sent to the east to ask for help had not been heard from for a year.
This is not a big deal!
According to the previous agreement, Mali Hasiya had to send a wave of messengers to the Western Region every month. But it’s not a good thing that I haven’t seen Mali Hasiya’s messenger for nearly 12 months...
At the same time, there are also some very scary rumors coming from the Western Tang Dynasty, saying that the Can Liao people in Mobei started mobilizing in the spring of last year to prepare for a large-scale attack on Linhuang Mansion!
All signs indicate that the mother country of Dajin is probably doomed.
Wanyan Xiebao looked at his father's devastated look, but the expression on his face did not change at all - when it came to his feelings for the Kingdom of Jin, Xiebao could not be compared with his father Zong Han.
Wanyan Zonghan was of the generation who followed Aguda to start a business. He fought hard and fought hard to rejuvenate the country, and he built the Kingdom of Jin with one sword and one shot. This Great Jin Kingdom is just like his biological son! Seeing that the son he had raised so well was gone, could Wanyan Zonghan not be sad?
Wanyan Xiebao, on the other hand, is starting his own business and wants to make a big fortune of his own, and now he has some ideas. If he works harder, he may be able to succeed.
In fact, there are currently forty brand-new galley and drum boats moored in the Bay of Crow Towers that have just arrived from Chesonis!
These new warships were built by Wanyan Xiebao at no expense to hire craftsmen from Venice and Genoa. They were weapons used to capture the Roman castle.
In Xiebao's view, as long as he could capture the castle, he would have a chance to become an official of the Roman state...Whether Daikin survives or dies, it has little to do with him.
But now that he saw his father in despair, Wanyan Xiebao felt that he still had to comfort the old man.
"Dad, don't be too sad... Dajin can't be finished, and it can't be destroyed by the Southerners!"
Wanyan Zonghan looked at his son, "Xiebao, are you comforting daddy?"
"Dad!" Wanyan Xiabao squeezed out a smile, "Dajin still has us! Our West Route Army is Daikin's national destiny! As long as we can capture King's Castle this time, Daikin's national destiny will at least continue Continue for another three hundred years!"
Ah, it turns out that National Fortune can also be recharged!
The current balance of Dajin National Games is zero, or even negative, but as long as we win East Rome, it is equivalent to recharging for three hundred years... Maybe it won't take that long, but one or two hundred years is still stable. Steady. Of course, when the balance of Guoyun is insufficient next time, if Daikin or Jinroman still have heroes, they may be able to top up a little more.
"Kingsburg is a fortified city!" Wanyan Zonghan said, "And the Romans also have fire-breathing ships...can we defeat it?"
"Don't be afraid," Wanyan Xiebao said with a smile, "They have fire-breathing ships, and we have tube ships! We are not afraid of not being able to blow up their fire ships! As for the Fortress of Castle, we are even less afraid. We have hot pots, and hot pots can't. Fortified city!”
Okay, this time it's not God's whip... It's so inhumane to hit someone with a whip, it hurts so much! So Xiebao is ready to be the pot of God!
Wanyan Zonghan frowned: "But there are still many of them...how many of us are there now?"
"We have quite a few people," Wanyan Xiabao said. "There are at least 50,000 or 60,000 national soldiers alone. In addition to the Kipchaks, Alans, and Rakshasa people who follow us, there are also hundreds of thousands of troops. Yes. Dad, when we Jurchens rebelled against the Liao Dynasty, how could there be so many people there?"
