Qin Hui's head had just fallen to the ground, and his consciousness had not completely disappeared. When he was thinking about his final life, the "Song Army" opposite Yishui had already begun to retreat.
They are just here to show off, and of course they have to run away after completing their mission!
These so-called Song troops are actually Xibei goods. As Qin Hui said, how could Gao Yaoqing, the "little Gao Taiwei", be on the battlefield?
He was a civil servant of the Song Dynasty, and he was also a court official of the seventh rank, and he also had the post of Zhilong Tuge. If civil servants at this level could fight against thieves in battle, the Song Dynasty would have defeated Liao and destroyed Xia Tun Annan!
Moreover, Little Lieutenant Gao did not have the guts to lead more than 10,000 elite soldiers deep into the enemy's territory to confront the 40,000-strong Jin soldiers on both sides of the Yishui River.
Not to mention Gao Yaoqing, not even Yue Fei dared to do this kind of thing... The gold thieves deployed an army of more than 200,000 on both sides of the Juma River. Wouldn't it be easy to get out with 40,000 to 50,000?
More than 10,000 Song troops marched in. What else could they do if they weren't going to die?
Moreover, the Song army was not familiar with the terrain in the Yizhou area. It had been the territory of the Liao Kingdom since the founding of the Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty only ruled that area briefly, and before it had time to become familiar with it, it was already taken away by the Jin soldiers.
Now if more than ten thousand Song troops march into the Yizhou area, they will not only face attacks from Jin soldiers several times their own, but will also be hostile to the local powerful in Yizhou. Since the declaration of the Song Dynasty and the Northern Expedition, the Song army has been in and out of Yizhou several times. It goes without saying how much damage it will cause to Yizhou.
Those who dare to lead more than 10,000 people in this sensitive period, go deep into Yizhou under the banner of Xiaogao Yanei, and confront Jin soldiers several times their size on the south and north banks of Yishui, are of course two hundred soldiers in the Yanyun area. Han Qi, a descendant of the Han family in Yutian, was the first to be the local leader for the past few years.
Not only is he familiar with the topography of Yizhou, but he also has ancestral reputation and connections. He is related to many Yizhou powerful men who hid in Yanshan to avoid chaos... Now he is following Han Qixian to show off on the south bank of Yishui. About 30% of the more than 10,000 "Song troops" were the men and horses hired by Korean companies from Yanshan.
In addition, the boss of Han Qixian is Wanyan Nianhan, the eldest prince of the Jin Kingdom. Both Puluhu and Talan have ways to control Nianhan's deployment. If Nianhan knows it, Han Qixian will naturally know it too.
Nianhan was also worried that Han Qixian didn't know how to use troops, so he sent the eldest son and daughter of the Lou family to follow Han Qixian and help him arrange troops.
Choosing to set up a formation on the bank of the newly frozen Yishui River to wait for Wanyan Puruhu's army was Wanyan Huonv's handiwork.
The newly frozen Yishui River was impossible to sail on, and the ice was not strong enough to allow the army to cross the river directly on the ice.
Therefore, the two armies facing each other across the river looked very close, but in fact they couldn't fight at all... As long as the Korean army fled before the Yishui froze, nothing would happen.
Of course, it is difficult to conceal the mobilization of tens of thousands of troops, and sooner or later the news will leak out.
However, this is not a problem for Wanyan Nianhan and his gang. They have already thought of a foolproof way to keep it secret.
As long as Han Qixian's more than 10,000 troops show up in front of Puluhu under the banner of Captain Xiao Gao, they can immediately turn westward. It first enters Yanshan and Taihang Mountains, and then passes through Feihuxing to Yuzhou on Xijing Road.
Wanyan Nianhan had long ago given a secret order to Yerunuge, who was staying in Xijing on behalf of Xijing, and asked him to report that the Song army from Hedong had launched an attack on several forts on the border of Yingzhou and Shuozhou, and also invaded the Jin Kingdom on a large scale. Xijing Road sign.
Because the Jin soldiers on Xijing Road were all under the control of Wanyan Nianhan, the right deputy marshal. So he could openly give an order to Han Qixian, asking him to lead troops to reinforce Xijing Road... When he arrived at Xijing Road, he could find a closed place and squint, and the news would not be leaked so easily.
As long as these more than 10,000 troops were stationed on the territory of Xijing Road in the Jin Kingdom for a few months, Wanyan Nianhan would most likely be elected as Banbo Jilie.
Even if the news leaks by then, Wu Qimai will have nothing to do with Nianhan... After all, Wu Qimai is old and his own strength is limited. Once a strong successor like Nianhan appears, Man, he was instantly a lame emperor. And Nianhan will then take over the power in advance!
…
"You're so lazy, something doesn't seem right! Why did Lieutenant Gao run away? He hasn't even been beaten yet!"
Wanyan Puluhu was not happy when he saw "Gao Yanei" on the other side of Yishui slipping away!
Not even a fight!
How does this count? Is it considered a win?
"Just run away," Talan said with a smile, "If they run away, it will save us the trouble of crossing the river to fight."
"Yeah, let's not cross the river..." Yaoshi Guo didn't want to cross the river to fight. He was worried about being deceived.
How dare Captain Gao dare to rely on more than ten thousand people to rush to the edge of Yishui? There are tens of thousands of Nianhan's troops behind him!
So there must be an army of the Song Dynasty on the south bank of Yishui River!
"The Vice-Captain General," Pharmacist Guo smiled again, "You have saved Yizhou City now, haven't you? Moreover, Lieutenant Gao has been repulsed by you again..."
"Can you still count it like this?" Wanyan Pruhu was a little embarrassed.
Wanyan Tart lazily smiled and said: "Of course you can forget it... If we hadn't led the 40,000 troops to reach the north bank of Yishui in time, Lieutenant Gao would have probably crossed the river. Yizhou is empty. Once it is taken by him, the consequences will be It’s unbearable!”
"But Captain Xiao Gao's troops are still there... Should we cross the river to pursue him?"
"No," said Pharmacist Guo, "Yishui has just frozen, and it has not yet reached the point of freezing three feet. Our troops cannot cross. There will be at least two days before we can cross the river on the ice."
"Two more days?" Puluhu said, "Little Captain Gao has already run away... His troops are still there, so he may leave and come back. How should we deal with it?"
"Deputy Commander, Mr. Guo," Pharmacist Guo was waiting for his words, "I can lead my troops to stay in Yizhou... I was stationed in Yizhou back then and I am familiar with the surrounding situation."
The situation is quite unclear now. Of course, Pharmacist Guo wants to find a piece of land to separate himself... Even if there is only one Yizhou, it is the capital to settle down and live!
"That's fine!" Wanyan Puluhu nodded and said with a smile, "If we follow Zhao Kai and everything returns to the way it was before, Guo Liushou will be the master of Yanshan Mansion!"
Pharmacist Guo quickly rolled off his horse and bowed deeply to Puluhu, "Don't worry, Deputy Commander-in-Chief, I am loyal to Daikin and there is no reason to betray me..."
…
When Han Qixian, who was leading more than 10,000 cavalrymen, put away the flag of "Little Gao Taiwei" and headed towards the vast Yanshan Mountain at high speed.
The real young Gao Taiwei, Gao Yaoqing, had already seen the coffin containing Gao Qiu's body in a hall filled with the strong smell of Dengzhou salted fish in the city of Dengzhou!
Gao Qiu passed away in Xuyi, the first county of Sizhou, but because of "delayed death", he could only be placed in a coffin without being buried.
Gao Qiu's eldest son, Gao Yaokang, and his second son, Gao Yaofu, were ordered to take care of their father, and they were appointed to serve as Guan Gou Ji Yiwen and Tong Pan Dengzhou respectively in the Xuanfu Division.
This time Gao Yaoqing arrived in Dengzhou again, and his family was finally in order.
Because Gao Qiu was still pretending to be alive, none of the three Gao Yameni wore sackcloth or filial piety.
But crying is still allowed!
The three brothers cried heartily in front of the coffin where Gao Qiu "sleeped". Then Gao Yaoqing wiped his tears and asked in the senior office: "Two brothers, have you ever smelled fishy smell?"
The eldest brother, Gao Yaokang, shed tears while explaining: "Oh, dad likes to eat salted fish, so..."
"Oh, oh, no need to say it, I understand." Why didn't the senior high school yameni know that the smell of salted fish was used to cover up the strong "body odor" emitted by Gao Qiu who was pretending to be alive?
Gao Yaofu, the second grade student in the government office, wiped away his tears and sighed: "When will this matter end?"
What he meant by this was when his father would die...it was unfilial to expect his father to die!
"Come on, come on..." Gao Yaoqing said, "When dad conquers the Liao Dynasty and wins, he will be out of the king's business."
Gao Eryamen was stunned, "What? If you want to end up with the king? Doesn't that mean you can't end well?"
Of course, not being a king means dying in battle, not a good death.
"Things that don't belong to the king must be loyal!" said the eldest brother, Gao Yaokang. "If our father becomes a loyal hero, then we can get more glory!"
Look, what a wonderful son!
Gao Yaofu asked: "Then, how do the eldest brother and the third brother want our father to be a loyal hero?"
"Get hit by a stray arrow!" said the senior high school yamenei, "We can't let dad end up in a different place, right?"
"That's right, why don't you leave your father's body intact..."
"It's better to keep the whole body, it's better to keep the whole body!"
These three are indeed filial sons! He also wanted to leave a complete body of Captain Gao in the history books.
"Then when will our father die?" Gao Eryanei asked again.
The senior high school student thought deeply and said: "I'm afraid we have to wait until next summer...I'm afraid it will be late June."
"Will it take that long?"
"Isn't that right!" Gao Sanyanei said, "It's freezing now, so we can't cross the sea to conquer the Liao Dynasty! We have to wait until spring to cross the sea to conquer the Liao Dynasty? After crossing the sea, we still need to build castles and arrange defenses. It's best to return If we can defeat the golden thief once or twice... If our father can die by next summer, he will die quickly. If he dies slower, I'm afraid it will be delayed until next autumn."
"Next autumn?" Gao Yaokang looked a little impatient.
Gao Yaoqing explained: "Brother, dad is pretending to be alive so that we can have a chance to make meritorious deeds! Military merit rises quickly, and my younger brother is already a court minister now... If he accumulates more military merit and transfers to a few more officers, his future career will not be as good as Is it smooth? Don’t you two brothers want to be promoted?”
For the sake of his own promotion, he delayed his father's ascension to heaven... There is no such unfilial son.
"Can you really win?" Gao Yaokang didn't quite believe his brother's words.
"We will definitely win!" Gao Yaoqing looked at the coffin where Gao Qiu was and said confidently: "With daddy with us, we are not afraid of any enemy!"
The two brothers Gao Yaokang and Gao Yaofu looked at each other, both in disbelief.
Their father, Captain Gao, had never won on the battlefield when he was alive. Now that we are all lying flat, can we still win by lying down?
