The leading general who was ordered to rescue Heiyang Mountain this time was called Ah Ting, and his official position was General Wude. This time, he was one of the main generals who accompanied the emperor Wan Yan Yong and was trusted by Wan Yan Yong.

"Ah Thorn, you take 15,000 cavalry, rush to Heiyang Mountain as fast as possible, guard the granary of Heiyang Mountain, if you can't make it, how much grain can be rescued." The emperor's words kept ringing in Ah Ting's ears, of course he knew in his heart what the granary of Heiyang Mountain meant to the Jin army, once there was a mistake in the granary of Heiyang Mountain, then this time the plan that the Jin State had worked so hard to formulate to lure the enemy into the depths would end in failure, and the current good situation would be in vain. Therefore, along the way, Ah Thorn kept urging the soldiers to move forward quickly, especially when he saw the fire in the direction of Heiyang Mountain from a distance, Ah Thorn was desperate to urge the soldiers to go quickly, regardless of manpower, horsepower, and formation.

"Everyone is moving forward at full speed, rushing to the granary of Heiyang Mountain, first to have a reward, and then to beheading." As soon as this order was given, the Jin soldiers were still in charge of a lot, and they just ran forward desperately, lest they be beheaded if they were one step too late. Along the way, there are horses that have died due to physical exhaustion. And the soldiers who had taken away the horses still spread their legs and ran desperately. Because Ah Ting's order is to rush to Heiyang Mountain, it doesn't matter if you use two legs or four legs.

When Ah Thorn led the Jin army to Heiyang Mountain, he found that the Song army had retreated very interestingly. And the whole granary was full of fire, like a mountain of flames, and the corpses of the golden soldiers guarding the granary were everywhere, and a disgusting smell permeated the air. However, because the Song army burned grain from the inside out, the grain stacks inside had been completely burned, while the grain stacks on the outside had not yet been completely burned.

Ah Thorn thought about it for a while, and finally chose between pursuing the Song army and rescuing the grain and grass first. Because he knows that at this time, the grain is the most important, of course, at this time, the fire has completely opened, and it is impossible to extinguish the fire in the granary, and now he can only rescue some as much as possible.

"Even if a soldier can only save one stone of grain, then these fifteen thousand people can also save fifteen thousand stones of grain, and it must be much stronger to burn it all." Ah Thorn thought so, so he immediately ordered, "Everyone go to rescue grain and grass, and the person who rescues the most food will be promoted to one level and rewarded with a thousand dollars." ”

With the order of the stab, the Jin soldiers jumped off their horses one after another, regardless of the fire, to rescue the food that had not yet burned. But it wasn't until the Jin soldiers rushed into the fire that they found that all the wells in the village had been filled by Song Zai. This is a problem.

Immediately, a soldier reported to Ah Ting: "My lord, all the wells have been filled up by the Song army, how can this be?" ”

Ah Thorn thought for a while, pointed at the horsewhip, and said: "There is a small river five or six miles to the west, so I will divide some people to fetch water, and the other part will rescue the food that is not burning first." ”

The Jin soldiers were embarrassed again: "My lord, we didn't bring a bucket here, what about Nashi Gong to fetch water?" ”

Ah Thorn was so anxious that he was about to vomit blood, and shouted: "If you don't have a bucket, you can use a helmet to fill it, and if you can't do it, take off your clothes and absorb water, in short, you must get water, if anyone can't save food, they will not be spared." ”

The golden soldier was startled, hurriedly agreed, and beckoned the soldier to fetch water. It's a pity that you can't get much water with helmet clothes, and it's really a drop in the bucket. Ah Thorn was so anxious that he beat his chest, knowing how many stones of grain would be destroyed by the fire for every moment of delay! It's a pity that he can't use his strength now, so he's in a hurry.

The Jin soldiers came and went to fetch water, and the food grabbing became a mess. At this time, there was a rapid and dense sound of horses' hooves behind the Jin army, and the Song army returned.

In fact, after Yang Yan led the Song army to withdraw, he saw that the Jin army did not chase after him, so he did not go far, but just hid in the distance and watched the Jin soldiers jump off their horses one after another, rescue the grain, and find the water. It's a mess. Yang Yan immediately reorganized the Song army and killed it again.

Ah Ting's head immediately "buzzed" loudly, he never expected that the Song army would be able to kill back, now the Jin army is busy looking for water, rescuing grain and grass, and the war horses are scattered in all directions and are not in an array at all, how to fight this time.

"Prepare for battle." Before he could finish his words, a rain of arrows shot at the chaotic Jin army.

Yang Yan lined up the Song army again, and did not rush forward, but kept a distance of about a hundred steps to shoot arrows at the Jin army, and all his soldiers had bows and arrows, plus the archers of other armies, each round could shoot four or five thousand arrows, and for a while, the arrows pierced the air with a sharp sound, and the locusts shot towards the Jin army.

The Jin army, which had already been chaotic enough, immediately became even more chaotic. Countless golden soldiers fell with arrows, countless unmanned war horses scattered in all directions, and the living golden soldiers were more like headless flies scurrying around. Some found a place to hide from the rain of arrows, some wanted to find their horses to fight the Song army, and some found bows and arrows to shoot back at Song Zao. People roared, horses neighed, arrows pierced the air, and under the background of the fire in Mantian, the Jin army fell into a great predicament.

It was the first time for Yang Yan to use the Thrilling String Bow, and the power of this bow was really amazing, within a distance of about 100 steps, it was enough to penetrate the golden soldiers with one arrow. And the female soldiers, who had nothing to do all along, finally had a chance to play at this time, and they picked up their bows and arrows and shot at the golden soldiers. After all, they were all trained in archery in the Right Martial Arts Academy. The female soldiers who had not opened the ring in the previous battle were all opened this time, especially Zhao Yueru, her bow may not be as strong as Yang Yan's thrilling bow, but every time she pulled out five eagle arrows in a row, and shot them continuously with a continuous bead shooting technique, the speed of the technique was staggering. Among all the Song troops, I am afraid that she shot the most Jin soldiers.

In front of them were raindrops of arrows, behind them were raging flames, and the golden soldiers who had no way out finally understood that they could only desperately or there was a glimmer of life, and the prancing horse on the war horse galloped wildly, and the one without the war horse opened his legs, each raised his sword and gun, and rushed towards the Song army desperately.

After having the consciousness of certain death and paying the lives of thousands of Jin soldiers, the remaining Jin soldiers finally rushed through the rain of arrows and came to the Song army. The Song army also put away their bows and arrows one after another, preparing for melee combat. Yang Yan hung up the frightened bow, pulled out the "Wind Forest Volcano" and rushed out, taking the lead in killing the Jin army. This was the first time he had fought since the expedition. The "Wind Forest Volcano" brought out a fierce knife aura, and with a "brush", a golden soldier with a spear and a person was cut in two. Hai Dongqing's four hooves were churning, and the long knife in Yang Yan's hand rolled out a sword-like light, and several golden soldiers were killed in a row.

As soon as the main general took the lead and rushed out, the other Yu soldiers who were still staying, all urged the war horses to rush up, and the Jin soldiers began to engage in short combat, and even the female soldiers rushed up with their knives and guns.

But this is not a battle on the surface, in front of the morale is high, the queue is neat, and the preparation is the most elite soldier army of the Great Song Dynasty, the Jin army, which has long been formed, is completely vulnerable, and as soon as it comes into contact with the Song army, it immediately collapses. The battlefield soon turned into a merciless slaughter by the Song army against the Jin army.

The knife slashed into the flesh, the spear pierced the body, and the low soldiers who stepped down were swept down by the war horses, and the golden soldiers on the horses were also knocked off their horses. Despite the desperate efforts of the Jin soldiers, the huge gap in strength cannot be made up by courage and fighting spirit. And some of them were lucky enough to avoid the sabers and guns of the Song army, and the Jin soldiers who had passed through the formation of the Song army had long since lost the courage to come back and fight the Song army, but took the road and fled.

And the Jin soldiers who were besieged by the Song army had only one way to die. Because the Song army had no effort to capture the prisoners at all, even the Jin soldiers who put down their swords and guns and surrendered were mercilessly killed.

The battle was nearing its end, and only sporadic battles remained on the battlefield. Yang Yan immediately ordered not to pursue the fleeing Jin soldiers. It's just that the golden soldiers were left behind and all the wounded war horses were gathered. And some of the grain that Jin Bing snatched from the fire was carried by Song Bing on horseback and taken away. The Song army only brought ten days of dry food when they set out, and today is the sixth day, and it is also time to replenish some food.

At this time, the fire became bigger and bigger, as if the entire Heiyang Mountain was burning. Yang Yan knew that the fire could not be extinguished at this time, and it was impossible to snatch out the grain from the fire, but the granary was too big, and if he wanted to wait for the granary to be burned out, he was afraid that he would not be able to rest until dawn, in fact, the fire burned for three days and three nights, and only after the fire was extinguished, the entire Heiyang Mountain was already without grass and was burned into a scorched earth.

Zhao Yueru gathered Zhao Qianru and the female soldiers together, but fortunately, these female soldiers were fine, but they were slightly injured. In fact, their riding skills and martial arts are not weak, but they lack practical experience on the battlefield. However, at this time, the female soldiers were covered in blood, especially Zhao Yueru, the silver armor and white horses were more red, less white, and the bright red was still dripping down the dragon stick. However, the swallowing tube is so, but each female soldier is still in good spirits, and the spirit is much stronger when he first goes into battle.

"If they go through a few battles, these girls will probably become qualified soldiers." Yang Yan thought so. At this time, the Song army was also cleaned up. Yang Yan immediately ordered, and the whole army immediately returned to the small mountain where the men and horses were temporarily stationed before, and went to join Xin Qiji and Wei Chang, who had stayed there.

Yang Yan looked back at the fire in the sky again, this attack on the granary of the Jin army in Heiyang Mountain was a persuasion. But this does not mean that this expedition will be sincere, how can we lead the expeditionary force to return to the Great Song Dynasty safely? Yang Yan knew in his heart that greater difficulties were still waiting for this expeditionary force in the future.

Wan Yanyong's face was pale, and he sat on the dragon chair without saying a word. Su Shi Lie Zhining stood on the right side with an expression of disbelief. Thorn fell to his knees on the ground, and fell on his head on the ground, not moving. All three of them seemed to be stunned. The whole hall was so quiet that you could hear a needle falling to the ground.

On May 25, the Song army attacked the Jin army granary at Heiyang Mountain. burned all the grain and grass of the Jin army, and replenished it. Almost all of the golden soldiers and miscellaneous servants guarding the granary were killed by the Song army. Ah Thorn led 15,000 cavalry to the rescue, but not only did not rescue a stone of grain and grass, but was defeated by the Song army, 15,000 men and horses, and less than 3,000 returned. Because at this time, Wan Yan Changzhi led Chen Liu's Jin army to regain the land of Shandong, so Wan Yan Yong summoned and urgently transferred back to Sushi Lie Zhining, who was guarding Suizhou.

When Su Shi Lie Zhining received the edict, he still didn't know what had happened. When he hurried to Nanjing, he was immediately summoned by Wan Yanyong without taking a breath, and learned the news that the granary of Heiyang Mountain was burned down by the Song army.

Su Shi Lie Zhining couldn't help but be taken aback. He knew that there were nearly one million stones of grain in Heiyang Mountain, and almost all the surplus grain south of the capital of Dajin Kingdom had been mobilized. Once burned, not only did this attempt to lure the enemy into the depths completely fail. And in the next few years, there will be a shortage of food in the southern part of Daikin. He is not only well versed in military affairs, but also familiar with government affairs. If there is no accident in the next few years, it will be fine, but once there is a flood or drought, it will be terrible, but it is easy to cause a mutiny among the hungry people and riots among the homeless.

I can't imagine that the Song army still has such a move, who led this expeditionary force? Is there still such a general in the Song army?

After staring at Yan Yong, he spoke: "According to the news from all walks of life, there are about six or seven thousand Song soldiers and horses on this expedition, and all of them are cavalry. The main general of the Song army is called Yang Yan, I have never heard of this person's name, but he can lead an expedition of hundreds of miles, he is indeed a general, and he must inquire about his origin. ”

Su Shi Lie Zhining said: "Yang Yan? May this be the one who comes. ”

Wan Yan Yong was stunned and said, "What? Do you know this person? ”

Su Shi Lie Zhining said: "Your Majesty, last year's minister was in Suzhou, and this year's minister has met this person in Xuzhou. The minister had already inquired clearly, he was the grandson of Yang Yizhong, the king of Tong'an County in the Southern Song Dynasty, and he was very brave, and Li Xianzhong relied on this person. I heard that he was recruited as a concubine by the Southern Song Dynasty Emperor Zhao Tuan. ”

Who is Yang Yizhong, Wan Yanyong naturally knows, and can't help but say: "Oh! Unexpectedly, Yang Yizhong is just a mediocre general, and he has such a good grandson, but the descendants of Yue, Han, Zhang, and Liu are all inactive. ”

When Su Shi Lie Zhining heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Wan Yan Yong said again: "Okay, I have heard clearly, after they burned down the granary of Heiyang Mountain, they fled eastward, I will order you to take full responsibility and pursue this Song army, and must not let them escape back to the Southern Song Dynasty, this Song army must be eliminated, especially that Yang Yan, if this person is not removed, it is inevitable that it will not become a second Yue Fei, and it will eventually become a big disaster for my Dajin." ”

Su Shi Lie Zhining immediately said: "The ministers will definitely wipe out this Song army and capture Yang Yan alive to see the emperor." ”

Wan Yanyong nodded, suddenly remembered something, and said: "Su Shi Lieqing, this Song army still has a feature, that is, they are all covered in white robes. ”

Su Shi Lie Zhining was stunned and said: "Being in a white robe, is it the white-robed army that learned from Chen Qingzhi back then?" ”

During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, Chen Qingzhi, the general of the Southern Liang, led 7,000 white-robed troops, and went deep into the Northern Wei Dynasty for 140 days, during which there were 47 fierce battles, 32 cities, and all the battles were won.

Wan Yan Yong said: "Okay, then let me see how Yang Yan's white-robed army is better than Chen Qingzhi's white-robed army?" He glanced at the thorn who was kneeling down again, "Thorn, I will give you a chance to make up for it, and go with Marshal Zuo to pursue the Song army." ”

Ah Thorn was overjoyed when he heard this, he failed to rescue the grain and grass in Heiyang Mountain, but was defeated by the Song army, and he lost his troops and dismantled the generals, thinking that he would be heavily punished, but who knew that the competition gave him a chance to make up for his merits, and he was busy kowtowing and said, "Thank the emperor." ”
