"Wake up, wake up! Xiao Sheren is awake!"
As soon as Wang Xiaolie opened his eyes, he saw a man in front of him dancing wildly and shouting loudly to the people next to him. Hearing the shout, several men gathered around and looked at Wang Xiaolie with great joy.
It is the beginning of summer, the weather is not too hot, and the wind blowing on your body is refreshing. There was a big tree next to it, blocking the sunlight. Farther away, among the weeds and wild flowers, many tents were set up, and people were moving between the tents.
Wang Xiaolie shook his head. Many things from the past and the future came to his mind, and for a moment he felt like he was dreaming. I was originally an ordinary person thousands of years later, but somehow, I ended up in the young man I am now. All kinds of thoughts floated in my mind, including some memory fragments of this young man, everything seemed strange.
The first person to speak was Wang Zhong, a tenant of Wang Xiaolie's family. This relationship has lasted for three generations. The two families are like one family, and their relationship is unparalleled. When he came out this time, Wang Rudai, Wang Xiaolie's father, specially brought Wang Zhong with him so that he could take care of Wang Xiaolie.
Seeing that although Wang Xiaolie didn't speak, his expression gradually calmed down, Wang Zhong said hurriedly: "Okay, it seems that Xiao Sheren is feeling better! I'll bring you a bowl of water. I think Xiao Sheren is thirsty! "
A thin man next to him said: "Xiao Sheren has been in coma for many days. How can he drink water as soon as he wakes up? Go and cook a pot of porridge and put a few red dates in it. Eating it is the best way to replenish your body."
This is Yang Shen, who opens a restaurant in a town not far from Wang's house. When Wang Rudai raised troops to serve the king, he took him with him in the army to take care of the logistics and food supplies. Although he likes to take advantage of small things, he does things carefully.
Wang Xiaolie raised his arm slightly, feeling that every part of his body was sore, and he closed his eyes helplessly.
Seeing the urgency, Wang Zhong hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Is Xiaoshe still feeling unwell? You've been in a coma for so many days. Let's take a good rest first."
Wang Xiaolie said softly: "Okay. You all go and do your work, I will be alone."
Yang Shen said: "It's not in the way. Just take a rest in the small house, we are here. If you need anything, it will be convenient for us to give you instructions."
Wang Xiaolie was too lazy to say anything more, so he closed his eyes and leaned there to rest. While building up enough strength, he sorted through the information in his memory.
This was the second year of Jianyan, when the Jin army conquered Kaifeng and King Kang Zhao Gou proclaimed himself emperor. Last year, the Jin army besieged Kaifeng Mansion again, and the imperial court issued an order to the Qinwang of the world. Wang Xiaolie's father, Wang Ru, was at home on behalf of Ding You. He spent all his wealth and gathered more than 800 people to serve the king in Kaifeng Mansion. Unfortunately, when they arrived in Kaifeng, the imperial court had surrendered and ordered King Qin's army to return to their hometowns. How could Wang Rudai be willing to go back like this? He and his subordinates have been near Kaifeng Mansion. Later, when Zhao Gou proclaimed himself emperor, Wang Rudai led troops to fight with the Jin army, but unexpectedly he lost his life.
Thinking of this, Wang Xiaolie sighed. My current memory of the past is not complete, but when I think of Wang Rudai's steadfastness, I can't help but feel emotional. After Wang Rudai died, his subordinates supported Wang Xiaolie as their leader, and he has been around Kaifeng Mansion, dealing with various forces. Last year Zongze arrived in Kaifeng Mansion and began to organize the rebel armies. Wang Xiaolie and others were also subordinated to Zongze.
Wang Xiaolie couldn't remember exactly how he passed out, where he was now, and what he was going to do in the future. It seems that he heard that the Jin army had retreated, and Zongze commanded the army to pursue them.
After a while, Wang Xiaolie felt better and then opened his eyes again.
Wang Zhong, who had been standing by the side, saw him and said happily: "Do you feel better, Xiaosheren? The porridge is cooked over there. Let's have a bowl."
Wang Xiaolie felt his stomach was empty and nodded. Wang Zhong hurriedly ordered people to bring porridge. He personally held it and carefully fed it into Wang Xiaolie's mouth one spoon at a time.
After drinking the porridge, Wang Xiaolie felt stronger and asked Wang Zhong: "Where is this place? Where are you going?"
Wang Zhongdao: "Go back to Xiaosheren. Next to it is Xiaoyi Town, under the jurisdiction of Yong'an County. A few days ago, we met Ding Yijian and Ding Dalang who were going to Xijing to pursue the Jin army, so we joined forces and followed him here. When crossing the river, Xiaoshe accidentally fell off his horse and fell into a coma, which is where he is today."
After hearing this, Wang Xiaolie frowned and asked, "Where does this Ding Yijian come from? Why haven't I heard of it before?"
Wang Zhongdao: "The people in Xiaoshe have forgotten it. How could they not have heard of it? His real name is Ding Jin. He has tens of thousands of people. He is now inspecting the Kaifeng Prefecture and is a general under Marshal Zong. This march, together with Han Tongzhi , come to Xijing to assist Captain Zhai in capturing Luoyang City."
Wang Xiaolie nodded. Han Tongzhi is Han Shizhong, a famous figure in later generations, and now he is under the control of Zhao Gou. Taiwei Zhai was Zhai Jin, who was under the jurisdiction of the capital of the northwest of Beijing. He was originally the number one general in the west of Beijing. The Jin army captured Luoyang, and Zhai Jin led the local soldiers to fight around.
It was already April, and the Jin army began to retreat north to escape the summer heat. Zongze sent Han Shizhong and Ding Jin to Luoyang to help Zhai Jin. On the way, Ding Jin met Wang Xiaolie's subordinate. He was originally a group of thieves gathered by Zongze, and he took Wang Xiaolie and others here.
Looking around, Wang Xiaolie asked: "Yong'an is still far away from Luoyang. It's getting dark now, so why did you stop?"
Wang Zhongdao: "We all followed Ding Dalang's military orders, and we can't explain clearly. I heard that Ding Dalang was afraid of the Jin people's strong soldiers, so he stopped moving forward when he got here. Who can tell clearly? Han Tongzhi and others led the troops forward. I heard We have joined forces with Lieutenant Zhai."
Wang Xiaolie nodded. Feeling better, he stood up and moved his arms. On the other hand, Wang Zhong saw him and said hurriedly: "Xiaoshe has been ill for a long time. He finally woke up and needs to be nursed for a while. Why are you getting up now?"
Wang Xiaolie said: "It doesn't matter. I feel like I'm fine now. There's nothing wrong with me."
At this moment, a man ran over quickly. When he arrived, he looked at Wang Xiaolie from left to right and said, "Xiaoshe has been in the army for some time, but he has been in a coma. I didn't know he was such a good man!"
Seeing that Wang Xiaolie was silent, Wang Zhong said hurriedly: "This is the general Yu Huanyuti under the command of Ding's inspector. The people in Xiaoshe have not seen it yet."
Wang Xiaolie saw the word "join" tattooed on Yu Huan's face. Although it was covered by her hair, it could still be seen. He didn't know that this was Ding Jin's sign when he gathered the crowd to raise troops, and it was difficult to ask, so he just saluted Yu Huan.
After seeing Li, Yu Huan said: "I heard that Xiaosheren is awake, and Du Xun specially asked me to come and see him. If there is nothing serious, please invite Xiaosheren to come over and discuss matters."
Wang Xiaolie didn't know anything about what happened when he was under Ding Jin's tent, and he didn't know what kind of person Ding Jin was, so he didn't want to let go. It's just a matter of being under someone's roof. If the other party comes to invite you, it's hard to refuse. After thinking for a while, he said: "Tiha goes first. How about I go after I have arranged things here?"
"Of course you should!" Yu Huan didn't mind. "Luoyang is not far ahead. The matter is urgent. Please come quickly."
After Yu Huan left, Wang Xiaolie said to Wang Zhong and others: "Since Li Ding entered the tent, I didn't know anything. We were dragged along by him, and we don't know whether he really wanted to resist the Jin people or had other ideas. Now Things like this are really difficult to handle.”
Yang Shen on the side said: "Xiao Sheren just makes up his own mind, I will just follow orders."
As soon as he finished speaking, a tall man with a green face and a beardless face said: "Fighting against the Jin people is something you do with your head high, so don't be careless. This Ding Jin, after following him for a few days, he doesn't look like someone who is doing something important. Xiaoshe people, be careful."
Wang Xiaolie nodded and said nothing. I had already fallen into a coma before following Ding Jin, and there was no such person in my memory of my previous life, so I felt a little conflicted in my heart. And at this time, the memories of the past and present life were intertwined, making Wang Xiaolie a little confused. However, the current situation was very urgent, and Wang Xiaolie had no choice but to cheer up and take care of things.
After thinking for a while, Wang Xiaolie said to the others: "Cao Zhiyan and Shao Ling will follow me to see Ding Jin. The rest of you, please take good care of the troops, check the number of people, and don't make any mistakes."
Several people said yes.
Cao Zhiyan was originally a monk in Qingliang Temple in Ye County. When Wang Rudai raised his army, he was begging nearby, so he grew his hair and joined the army. He is tall and has naturally large bones, but he is extremely thin and looks a bit weird. According to himself, he has never had a full meal since he was a child. Shao Ling is a native of Xinzheng. He has little courage, is calm, and does not express his emotions or anger. When King Qin's army passed through Xinzheng, he joined the army and was highly appreciated by Wang Rudai.
In addition to Wang Xiaolie, Wang Zhong, Yang Shen, Cao Zhiyan, Shao Ling, and Xie Linong who just spoke are the leaders of Wang Xiaolie's army. At this time, there were still more than 300 people in the army, led by them. Wang Zhong accompanied Wang Xiaolie, Yang Shen was in charge of money and food, Cao Zhiyan, Shao Ling and Xie Linong each led one hundred people. There are many such teams in Jingdong and Jingxi at this time, and they are not eye-catching.
While walking on the road, I was summarizing the situation in my mind.
Last winter, the Jin army divided into three groups to attack the south. Wanyan Zongfu and Wanyan Zongbi unified the East Route Army to attack Jingdong Road, Lou Shi and Salihe unified the West Route Army to attack Shaanxi, and Wanyan Zonghan unified the Middle Route Army to attack the west of Beijing. The east road fell into Qingwei and other prefectures, the west road broke through Fengxiang, Chang'an, and the middle road swept through Jingxi Road.
At this time, the Jin army had a habit of fighting in winter and retreating to the north in summer. It is now April, and the Jin soldiers have begun to return north. In the middle, Wanyan Zonghan burned Luoyang, the capital of Xijing, and drove the people of Luoyang, Xiangyang, Yingchang, Ru, Zheng, Jun, Fang, Tang, Deng, Chen and Cai to Hebei. In fact, most of the cities on Jingxi Road have been captured by the Jin soldiers, and the people have been captured, leaving the land in ruins.
At this time, only Wanyan Xiyin and thousands of men in the middle route army broke up the rear. Zhai Jin, Han Shizhong, Ding Jin and others went to Luoyang to attack Wanyan Xiyin. If they win, it will be considered a great achievement to take back Luoyang City, which was abandoned by the Jin Bing. Among the three armies, Ding Jin came from a group of thieves and was not taken seriously at all. Wang Xiaolie was coerced by him again and was actually irrelevant to this battle.
Zongze defended Tokyo, an extremely important event in history. In Wang Xiaolie's memory, there is a lot of knowledge about this matter. But when he finally came to this era, Wang Xiaolie realized that the real situation was much harsher than historical memories.
