Naturally, it is far from the time to celebrate, because although the eastern and western Kyotos of the Great Song Dynasty were recovered by the Song army, the Jin army was gradually withdrawing to the north of the Yellow River, and now in the area of the Daimyofu, more than 100,000 troops have gathered in Yijing, and the men and horses are still further gathered. [The domain name of this site has been changed to the south bank of the Yellow River, and it is possible to kill the Yellow River at any time and fight for Kaifeng Mansion again.] And even south of the Yellow River, there are still Shaanzhou, Songzhou, Suizhou, Guidefu, Shanzhou, Caozhou and other places The Song army has not recovered, although there are not many Jin troops in these places, but it is still a hidden danger after all.

At the same time, although the Song army basically occupied the Central Plains, but in the east and west, the advance of Shandong and Guanzhong has not kept up, and the Central Plains region was originally accessible in all directions, and it was advantageous to attack but not to defend, so Kaifeng Prefecture was not completely settled. Even in Bianliang City, there are also a lot of aftermath matters that need to be solved gradually.

Therefore, after the feast, Yang Yan immediately ordered Gao Zhen to lead an army of 70,000 to garrison Dongming, Changyuan, Jigudu, Yanjin, Heyin, Bishui, Mengjin and other places along the Yellow River to defend the Yellow River. At the same time, he ordered Qi Fang and Chen Min, each with 30,000 horses, to collect other areas south of the Yellow River, and ordered Chen Min to garrison Luoyang, and Qi Fang to garrison Guide. Then he ordered Shandong and Guanzhong to urge Cao Xun and Meng Zongzheng to march as soon as possible to protect the flanks of the Central Plains. Finally, the remnants of the Jin army were further searched in Bianliang City, and the residents in the city were further classified and registered, distinguishing between Han Chinese and Jurchens.

A few days later, the state capitals of Kaifeng and Henan were recovered by Qi Fang and Chen Min one by one, and Chen Min and Qi Fang were also stationed in Luoyang and Guide respectively to protect the periphery of Kaifeng Province. At the same time, Gao Zhen also stationed troops along the Yellow River, and it can be said that the safety of Bianliang has been fully guaranteed.

The Jin army stationed in Guanzhong and Shandong also withdrew one after another, so Meng Zongzheng and Cao Xun also led their troops in pursuit, recovering many places along the way.

First of all, on the front line of Guanzhong, after Bi Zaiyu returned to the army, Yang Changpeng led his men and horses to recover all the places on Fengxiang Road and Qingyuan Road, and then waved his troops south, attacked Yaozhou, and assisted Meng Zongzheng in attacking Jingzhao Mansion. At this time, Guo Shrimp Toad, who was stationed in Jingzhao Mansion, was very difficult to resist Meng Zongzheng's three-way attack, but it was only maintained without force, and now with Yang Changpeng's way, it was even more clumsy, and he couldn't resist it at a glance.

Fortunately, at this moment, the order to withdraw the army was transmitted to Chang'an City, and after receiving the general's order, Guo Xiajiao also breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately ordered the horse to start retreating gradually.

However, although it was a withdrawal of troops, Guo Shrimp Toad was still very cautious, did not give up all the places at once, and fled to the north bank of the Yellow River at once.

Although Meng Zongzheng and Yang Changpeng had sent troops many times to intercept them on the way, the Jin army's retreat arrangements were not leaky, so they never grasped the flaws of the Jin army, and as a result, the Jin army gradually abandoned Jingzhaofu, Shangzhou, Yaozhou, Pizhou and other places, evacuated to Huazhou and Tongzhou, and crossed the Yellow River at Hejin Ferry, and was stationed in Hezhongfu, Jiezhou, and Jiangzhou. However, in addition to some of the state capitals on the Yanyan Road, the land of Guanzhong was recovered by the Great Song Dynasty.

On the front line in Shandong, the Song army's harvest was greater, because Shandong was adjacent to the Central Plains, so after the Song army recovered Kaifeng Mansion, Cao Xun took the lead in getting the news, at this time the Song army captured Pizhou with Jingjing and was attacking Xuzhou with all its might. The servants who guarded Pizhou were loyal and loyal to retreat to Yizhou to garrison.

So Cao Xun commanded the Song army to storm Xuzhou on the one hand, and ordered Liu Fuwu to lead 20,000 horses and horses to make a detour from Shanzhou and directly capture Jeju. At the same time, he ordered Li Gongzuo to attack from Haizhou and capture Mizhou.

At this time, Shi Dingyue, who was guarding Xuzhou, and Fusan Zhongyi, who was retreating to Yizhou, both received orders to retreat, and the two felt that it was very difficult to resist the attack of the Song army, so they also withdrew immediately.

But Cao Xun immediately commanded the Song army, divided the troops into two routes, led by himself and Zhang Shiyan, and then pursued. Shi Dingyue retreated to Tengzhou, immediately attacked by Liu Fuwu from behind, Cao Xun also led the army to arrive, two pinch-attacked, immediately defeated Shi Dingyue, and retreated to Yanzhou, the Song army still did not let go, and then pursued and caused, Shi Dingyue could not hold Gunzhou, so he had to retreat to Dongping Mansion, and then the Song army chased to Dongping Mansion, still did not let go, fortunately at this time Wanyan Chen monk sent Pu Atong to respond, only to block the pursuit of the Song army, hold Dongping Mansion, and also save Shi Dingyue. However, the Jin army under Shi Dingyue's subordinates had less than 10,000 horses left.

And Fusan Zhongyi is not so good luck, he led the army to retreat to Juzhou, immediately ambushed by Li Gongzuo, the Jin army was killed, and then Zhang Shiyan led the army to arrive, Fusan Zhongyi had to give up Juzhou, and retreated to Tai'an Mansion, and the Song army captured Juzhou. And Fusan Zhongyi happened to encounter Cao Xun's men and horses to capture Tai'an Mansion, and was immediately intercepted by the Song army, at this time the Jin army had already been killed by the Song army in a dazzy and exhausted, there was still the opponent of the Song army, except for a few who insisted on fighting to the death, the others laid down their weapons and raised their hands to surrender. The Song army took advantage of the situation and captured Tai'an Province again.

However, Cao Xun continued to march and captured Zizhou and Yidu in succession, with the result that Chefu cut off the Shandong Peninsula from the Jin mainland. Then send troops to attack one by one. The Jin army had to retreat to Jinan Mansion and Dongping Mansion to garrison the first line, and there were only seven counties left in the entire Shandong region.

At the same time, Song Jun got another unexpected gain. One of the main generals of the Jin army, Shang Shu Zuo Cheng of the Jin State, was captured alive by Song Junsheng.

It turned out that in the first battle of Tai'an Prefecture, Fusan Zhongyi saw that the Jin army was no match for the Song army, so he knew that the situation was not good, so he immediately changed into the clothes of ordinary soldiers, and took a few henchmen and soldiers to mingle in the chaos. pretended to surrender the Song army on the battlefield, and then took advantage of the chaos on the battlefield, the Song army didn't pay attention and actually ran out secretly.

Fusan Zhongyi originally planned to flee back to the Jin Kingdom, but at this time, Tai'an, Zizhou, and Yidu Prefecture were all captured by the Song army, blocking the border between Song and Jin, and also cutting off their way back to the Jin Kingdom. Afraid of risking crossing the border, and fearing to attract the attention of the Song army, they had to wander around the countryside around Tai'an, Zizhou, and Yidufu to take refuge, hoping to wait for the Song army's blockade to relax a little before trying to escape back to Jin.

But several of them came down from the battlefield penniless, and although they carried a little dry food with them, they ate it in less than a day. He could only rely on Suno Rai to survive, and he hid for several days, and he was hungry one by one. I had no choice but to go to the village at night and steal some food. The results caught the attention of the villagers.

Because the land of Shandong was originally the homeland of the Great Song Dynasty, most of the residents were Han Chinese. The Song army was quite disciplined, so it was quickly supported by the local residents. In order to capture the scattered Jin army, the Song army gave heavy rewards to the residents, and those who caught the scattered Jin army were rewarded with 20 yuan each. And the people of Shandong are usually bullied by the Jin army, and now they finally have a chance to take revenge, and naturally everyone is active, so they have also caught many deserters from the Jin army. Therefore, the villagers also immediately mobilized, and a total of dozens of people were recruited to search everywhere. In the end, it was a local, familiar with geography, and it didn't take half a day to find five people including Fusan Zhongyi.

There were a large number of villagers, and the servants were so hungry that they had no strength, so they did not resist, and they were captured one by one, tied up by the villagers, and sent to the camp of the Song army.

This is Zhang Shiyan's station, he saw that the servants were all over half a hundred years old, and they were also Jin Jun, so they must not be ordinary people, not to mention middle-level generals, or civilian officials such as staff officers and clerks, so he immediately found a few captives to identify, and someone immediately recognized that it was the servants and loyalty. Zhang Shiyan couldn't help but be surprised and delighted, he couldn't imagine that he had caught such a big fish. And when it came to the order, the servants couldn't deny their loyalty, so they had to admit their identities.

Zhang Shiyan immediately doubled the reward for the villagers, and then ordered someone to escort the servants to Cao Xun's camp and hand them over to Cao Xun to deal with. After some interrogation, Cao Xun also determined the identity of the servant and loyalty, and was overjoyed, this is the prime minister of the Jin State, among the officials of the Jin State, he is the third person after Wanyan Fushou and Wanyan Chen Monk, and was actually captured alive by the Song army, which is really not a small credit, so he immediately reported to Zhao Chen and Yang Yan and others in Kaifeng Mansion.

After Yang Yan received the report, he not only sighed, Cao Xun is really lucky, he has fought for more than ten years, and he has fought with Jin Guo no less than dozens of times, although he has won many battles, but he has never captured a decent official alive on the battlefield, and Cao Xun was caught by such a big fish. I really don't believe in fate.

However, after sighing, Yang Yan immediately entered the palace and reported the news like Zhao Chen. After Zhao Chen heard Xun, he was also overjoyed. Now the entire land south of the Yellow River, including most of Guanzhong and Shandong, has been recovered by the Great Song Dynasty, and can basically be stabilized, so Zhao Chen is also discussing with the ministers to personally go to Luoyang to pay homage to the tombs of the ancestors of the Great Song Dynasty.

However, sweeping the tomb must prepare sacrifices, and Zhao Chen also plans to carry out the ceremony of sacrificing prisoners in front of the tomb, although some generals were selected from the captured Jin army, but they are not important figures, so they also seem to be a little insufficient, and now that they have caught the prime minister of the Jin country, is there a better sacrifice than this? Therefore, Zhao Chen immediately issued an order, asking Cao Xun to immediately escort Fusan Zhongyi to Bianlianglai, and at the same time issued an order to Luoyang, ordering Chen Min, who was stationed in Luoyang, to prepare to take over.
