Chapter 172: To the West
"To the west, to the west! Break the defenses on the west side, join up with Wanyan Zonghan, let's go home!"
Wanyan Zongwang looked at the tens of thousands of Jurchen soldiers, raised the sky and roared, and the tens of thousands of soldiers below also burst into bursts of roars: "Go home! Go home!"
Haoran Daoist looked at the arrogant soldiers below, but lamented in his heart, this group of murderous warriors has lost their ambition, and the only thing that can inspire their ambition is to go home, which is an escape for cowards and a sign of failure.
"We have no choice! There are Wu forts in the north, and hundreds of thousands of troops and millions of people will slowly wear down our powerful warriors! There is no food and grass, no supplies, and there are hundreds of thousands of cheap cowards behind us!"
Wanyan Zongwang looked at the sky in the north and said lightly, but there was a sense of resentment and anger in his tone.
"We'll be back! At that time, I'm going to destroy this world with my own hands! And at this time, we're going to withdraw our fists and heal our wounds. ”
When Yan Zongwang finished speaking, he turned around and sat on his war horse, brandished the big sword in his hand, and roared towards the west, tens of thousands of Jurchen cavalry swept away, rushing towards the western defense line in the west.
Because there are still hundreds of thousands of Jurchen troops there, as well as the trapped Wanyan Zonghan army, as long as they converge, he can take the sons and daughters around him out.
"Report to Your Highness immediately, the Jurchens have gone west!"
Seeing that the Jurchen army rushed to the west, Tie Xing immediately sent troops to the north to report it, and at the same time sent people to the south to occupy the cities vacated by the Jurchens, and the strength of those Qinwang's troops must be blocked, and they must not be allowed to enter the Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, and destroy the rules formulated by His Highness, it is best to force these Qinwang troops to follow behind Wanyan Zongwang.
"Your Highness, the Emperor of the Jin Kingdom, Wanyan Wu begged to buy the Jurchen general Wanyan Xian, and also led an army of 100,000 to Gubeikou and came towards Yanjing!"
The Dragon Tooth Spy quickly reported the latest news to Zhao Shu, which made Zhao Shu's face change slightly.
"What a quick reaction speed!"
Zhao Shu sighed softly. With a sweep of his eyes, he turned to look at the many generals under his command, his eyes were locked deeply, and after pondering, he said to the generals: "Han Shizhong led the 30,000 Qilin troops in Yanjing City to Gubeikou to block the Jurchens!"
"Zhang Xian took the infantry soldiers as the backbone, tangled 30,000 heavy armor soldiers, and went north to Gubeikou!"
"Tang Huai led 50,000 Yanyun soldiers and horses to send troops later!"
Wang Guida led 10,000 cavalry to sweep along the line of the ancient Great Wall, not seeking military exploits. Just to disturb it!"
"This battle of Gubeikou is commanded by Han Shizhong!"
In Zhao Shu's series of orders, his eyes swept over the generals, and his eyes became more and more cold.
"Your Highness, the army is pouring out, the southern army has not arrived, and the land of Yanjing is mostly newly recruited soldiers and those who are not at peace, how to make it!"
Jiang Kui, who came in a hurry from the south, said hesitantly, and at the same time said to Han Shizhong in charge of the entire army. There are also worries about taking on such a big responsibility, after all, Zhang Xian, Tang Huai and others are all veterans, and although Han Shizhong surrendered earlier, he is a general of the Western Army. Compared with other generals, the qualifications are somewhat insufficient.
"Needless to say, millions of people in Yanyun have been mobilized in the Wubao system, which is the foundation of this king's self-reliance.
There are also a thousand guards of Liu Shifeng in Yanjing. Zhao Long's brocade guard, coupled with the fact that the king himself is in charge, is enough! As long as he blocks the Jurchen army. Only by himself can he truly occupy the sixteen states of Yanyun. ”
Zhao Shu said this, and called Han Shizhong forward: "Han Shizhong, Gubeikou is a heavy dealer, once it is lost, the Jurchen army of 100,000 will sweep south, reoccupy Yanjing, and break through the sixteen states of Yanyun, this king will hand over all Yanyun's net worth to you, don't let this king down!"
When Zhao Shu said this, he untied the Chixiao Emperor Sword on his waist: "Han Shizhong, this sword is the Chixiao Emperor Sword, it is a symbol of the identity of this king, you hold this sword, order the whole army, if there is anyone who disobeys the order, you can cut it first and then play!"
Hearing Zhao Shu's words, looking at the Chixiao Sword in front of him, Han Shizhong, who had a rough face and a resolute temperament, was already flushed with excitement, trembling uncontrollably, and stretched out his hand to carefully hold the Chixiao Sword: "Your Highness trusts you with your life, and Han Shizhong will repay him with death!"
"Immediately send troops!"
Zhao Shu stepped forward and patted Han Shizhong's shoulder heavily, turned to look at Jiang Kui and said, "Jiang Kui, immediately order the naval army Zhou Lun and Hong Guang to lead the naval army along the Luanhe estuary to harass the Jin people's Shangjing!"
"Wu Jie led 50,000 elites to attack Yuyang, out of Zunhua, directly attacked Jurchen Luanyang, and surrounded Wei to save Zhao. ”
Zhao Shu's heart turned, and he continued, It's just that in this way, the 150,000 troops who surrendered Guo Yaoshi and his own elites trained in Yanyun have all been dispatched, if there is a large army attacking Yanjing now, he can only stick to this place.
After Zhao Shu's order was issued, Han Shizhong led 30,000 elite troops to Gubeikou that night.
The backbone of this army is all the elite of the Qilin army, mixed with the early elite army in Zhigu Village, which can be said to be the most elite army brought out by Zhao Shu.
After Han Shizhong left, Wu Jie took the remaining Qilin elite and the army of Zhigu Village away, and joined a part of the Yanyun soldiers to go to Shangjing of the Jin people, sweeping away the remnants of the Jurchen army south of the ancient Great Wall.
And the rest of the army were all reorganized and recruited new soldiers, who were taken away one by one by the major generals and began a decisive battle with the Jurchens in the true sense.
Countless craftsmen and people were also mobilized one by one, and a large number of materials were transported to the north.
Yanjing was completely empty.
After the army left, Zhao Shu sat in the Yanjing Mansion and began to use the Jinyi Guards composed of a thousand guards and the children of the family to integrate the various forces in Yanjing City.
"Wu Yuanba, Yan Yun has experienced this difficulty, how many other families are there?"
In the Yanjing Mansion, Zhao Shu asked Wu Yuanba, Yanyun was in chaos, and many big clans were destroyed by the Jurchens, but there were still some profound clans that escaped these catastrophes.
"There are three big families, the Li family, the Zhang family in Yuyang, and the Li Mu family in Shunzhou, which we have been cooperating with.
The Zhang family has already attached itself to the Jurchens, and with the help of the power of the Jurchens, it seems that they want to overshadow the other two families. The children of his family held important positions in the Song and Liao capitals, and after the Liao was destroyed, the children of his clan took refuge in the Jin people.
Zhang Bangchang in the Great Song Dynasty is the son of the Zhang family!"
When Wu Yuanba said this, he reminded him.
"Since the great change in Yanjing, the Li family has been in the land of Bazhou, and they can't hold it, and the Li Mu family in Shunzhou is also trapped in the fortress!"
"The children of the Li family have already sent people to Yanjing, and the children of the various branches in their clan have also applied for the master of Wubao, but they also have people who follow the Jurchens, which is a typical means of betting on both sides of the big family, as for the Li Mu family, there is no news yet, it seems to be waiting!"
"Well, investigate the situation of the Zhang family, since you have already taken refuge in the Jin people, then use it to establish your authority, and let the people in the court know that Yan Yun is not something they can interfere with. (To be continued......)
