Liu Hao was startled. He looked at Zongze in surprise and said, "Zongshuai, why is this?"

"The Jin army wants to withdraw, and they must not besiege the city so easily!"

"What does General Zong mean by these words? I will not understand very well."

Zongze: "The golden thief is going south to Beijing Northwest Road now. Wouldn't it be better to go to Huainan West Road?"

Liu Hao was even more confused: "That's right! Wouldn't it be better to go south to Beijing Northwest Road or Huainan West Road!"

It was the hinterland of the Song Dynasty, rich in money, food, and population.

Since you have already gone deep, why go back to chew on the hard bones?

Crazy?

Liu Hao suddenly jumped up and rushed out immediately.

Li Que on the side also shouted excitedly: "My sword is already hungry and thirsty!"

This time, Zongze did not need to behead him to force him.

That afternoon, Zongze organized 2,000 cavalry and 10,000 infantry in Daming Mansion.

Daming Mansion originally had 3,000 cavalry. Yue Fei was previously allocated 1,000 cavalry, and there were still 2,000 left. Zongze did not hesitate to move all the cavalry out.

Led by Li Que, the first goal was to launch a lightning sniper attack on the Jin army outside Cizhou City.

If nothing else happens, the number of Jin troops outside Cizhou City will not exceed 3,000, and they have no intention of attacking the city. They are just pretending to be there, waiting for the main force to move north, and then withdraw immediately.

This time is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

After hesitating for a few more days, Wu Shu passed Xingzhou and it was too late to enter Zhaozhou.

Li Que set off from Daming Mansion at lightning speed and arrived at Cizhou, a hundred and fifty miles away. It only took an hour (two hours).

Li Que shouted three times: "My broadsword is already hungry and thirsty! My broadsword is already thirsty and thirsty! My broadsword is already thirsty and thirsty!"

As soon as the Song army arrived, they almost didn't rest and immediately launched an attack on the Jin army outside the city.

The Jin army was completely stunned. No one expected that at this time, the Song army actually dispatched a cavalry and launched a lightning raid on Cizhou.

Didn't the Song army always defend the city?

Didn’t it say that the Song Army would never leave the city?

Moreover, none of the four city gates of Cizhou have been opened!

Where the hell did the cavalry come from!

The Jin army collapsed, and the Song army at the head of Cizhou City was also stunned.

What's going on?

Huh?

Why are you still fighting?

Jin Jun: Help!

Li Quejun: Kill!

Song Junjia, the defender of Cizhou City: Look over there, someone is racing!

Cizhou City Guard Song Junyi: Fart! That’s obviously playing polo!

Song Jun Bing, the defender of Cizhou City: You all saw it wrong. That was killing people.

Damn it! Kill someone?

Hurry! Go and report to Chen Shangguan!

By the time Chen Gui arrived at the head of Cizhou City, Li Que and his 2,000 Song troops had already defeated the Jin troops.

In the evening, the information outside Cizhou City returned to Daming Mansion.

Zongze has now completely confirmed his suspicion.

The infantry is ready, waiting for the situation in Cizhou City.

In the evening of that day, Zongze marched hastily and personally took charge of the battle and rushed to Handan.

Before dawn, Zongze arrived at Handan and found that there were only some Jin army camps near Handan and no Jin army.

After daybreak, the scouts began a large-scale investigation and immediately headed north based on the whereabouts of the Jin army.

At the same time, Zongze gathered the Handan garrison and quickly headed north to pursue the enemy.

Handan guard Zhang Jun was still sleeping when he was dragged up. He changed his clothes in a daze, rectified his troops and followed Zong Ze in a daze.

Before Zhang Jun left, he quietly told his subordinates to keep an eye on Liu Guangshi.

That was Zhang Jun's bargaining chip for promotion and fortune.

Liu Guangshi, who was sleeping soundly, didn't know this. He seemed to be having a sweet dream and smiled happily.

By noon, information finally came from the front that the Wushu army was indeed in Xingzhou.

Zhang Jun looked stunned: "Commander Zong, why did the Jin army arrive in Xingzhou?"

"Because the gold thieves have withdrawn!"

"The gold thieves have withdrawn their troops?" Zhang Jun almost didn't scream.

This guy is really buzzing.

No wonder in history, he liked to make snitches in front of Zhao Gou and was good at stirring up trouble.

"Withdrawal!"

"No wonder we have to leave the city!"

Half an hour later, Li Que and his cavalry came after him.

At the same time, the spies from the front once again received news that the Wushu army was only fifty miles away.

The movement speed of an army of 20,000 is indeed faster than that of an army of 90,000, and at least they carry less baggage.

In the evening, Wu Shu also confirmed that the Song army had been pursuing them.

Wu Shu immediately began to mobilize troops and generals, and asked Han Chang to command a cavalry group to intercept the Song army to cover the continued retreat of the large army.

It is absolutely impossible for Wu Shu to make the 90,000-strong army turn around and fight the Song army now. This is not playing a game, and it is not just a few clicks of the mouse and the 90,000-strong army will immediately turn around and start fighting.

Early in the morning on the second day of the first lunar month, Han Chang met Song Jun.

The two sides fought a battle, and Han Chang not only failed to take advantage, but was also shot with an arrow.

Only then did Wu Shu truly understand what pain in the balls was.

Regardless of how awesome Jin Wushu is, in orthodox history, this guy was a frequently defeated general.

Either he was defeated by Yue Fei or Liu Qi. By the way, Han Shizhong also came to defeat him.

Of course, Zongze also fought against him, but was also repelled by Zongze.

Wu Shu did not intend to pay attention to the Song army behind him, as he was worried about a stalemate.

They just kept sending cavalry to harass the Song army, which meant hitting them once and then retreating, hitting them once and then retreating.

The Song army defended for a while and then moved forward, and defended for a while before moving forward.

By the way, a small group of cavalry was also sent to search for and attack the Jin army's food and fodder.

In short, it sticks to the back like dog skin plaster.

This made Wu Shu feel uneasy about withdrawing his troops. When he made up his mind to go back and start a large-scale war, he found that the Song army had actually begun to withdraw.

Finally he breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to head north with peace of mind, only to find that the Song Army came out again!

In early February in North China, Wu Shu was cursing the Song army while hesitantly retreating northward. From time to time, the two sides moved their hands, kicked and swore at each other.

People who engage in bad arts are extremely annoyed, and their morale is worn off layer after layer.

Not only that, on the way, the soldiers and civilians of Xingzhou and Zhaozhou would come over and punch and kick the Jin army from time to time.

These people couldn't beat them head-on, but after being defeated, they came back a few days later.

In short, I just keep chasing him.

When Yelu Deguang, Emperor Taizong of the Liao Dynasty, was forced to withdraw from Bianliang north, he also enjoyed the same treatment as Wushu. He was entangled by the soldiers and civilians of Hebei and almost collapsed on the spot.

What is depth?

That’s it!

Going deep into enemy territory is a taboo for military strategists.

Why?

That's why!

In reality, withdrawing troops is much more difficult than attacking, and it is definitely not what civilian officials think.

Therefore, sages concluded that under normal circumstances, you should not go deep into enemy territory.

Look at the pre-Qin era, who would go deep into enemy territory?

It wasn't until Wei Qing and Huo Qubing appeared in the Han Dynasty that they began to travel long distances and engage in blitzkrieg.

Later, another Li Jing appeared in the Tang Dynasty.

But how many such famous generals are there in history?

As for the Jin army who dared to bypass the towns of the Song army and go south at will, it was in the first year of Jingkang that Guo Yaoshi revealed the true situation of the Song Dynasty to Wanyan Zongwang, so Zongwang dared to bypass Hebei and march south all the way to Tokyo.

Later, the weakness of the Song Dynasty was clearly seen in front of the Jin Kingdom, and the Jin army generals went deep into the Song Dynasty unscrupulously.
