Chapter 161 Wanyan Gao with Broken Egg
The scout reported all the military information in detail.
Yue Fei was suddenly confused after hearing this.
Where did this army come from, with tens of thousands of people?
And what does the "Qi" on the flag represent?
The scout also said that there were people in this army wearing Song army uniforms. Could it be one of their own?
When Yue Fei was confused, Kong Yanzhou sent people to investigate ahead.
He didn't know that Yue Fei had already detected him.
Kong Yanzhou led 8,000 troops. This was Kong Yanzhou's first battle after defecting to Liu Yu.
Kong Yanzhou vowed to his generals: "Today I will take the heads of Song generals as my pledge of surrender to Qi!"
One of Kong Yanzhou's subordinates, named Wang Yong, said: "Kong Shuai, it seems that the last general does not need to be so troublesome."
"What's your idea?"
"Since it is the Song Army, it must have been defeated on the front line. There is no need to use swords or guns at all. You only need to send people to appease and win over, and you can strengthen Kong Shuai's strength."
When Kong Yanzhou heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and he asked: "What do you think is the best way to win over me?"
"Send someone over to talk to their chief, tell them your name, and tell them that you are the guard general of Fucheng. If you offer them an official position, they will definitely be moved."
"Okay! Well said!"
Kong Yanzhou immediately sent someone there.
Yue Fei was still confused at this time. He asked Zhang Xian: "Could it be reinforcements coming from the south?"
Zhang Xian also expressed doubts: "It is possible."
"If there are reinforcements, we can safely return to Daming Mansion to recover."
When Yue Fei and Zhang Xian were confused, Kong Yanzhou sent someone over.
The person sent here was Wang Yong, and he was brought to Yue Fei.
"My officer is Wang Yong, the Marquis of Yu, the capital of Fucheng, Yongjing Army."
When Zhang Xian heard about Fucheng, he immediately became energetic: "Are you affiliated with Fucheng?"
"Yes."
Zhang Xian asked: "Do you know Kong Yanzhou?"
Wang Yong immediately confirmed his thoughts. It seemed that the Song army also fled from the north.
Wang Yong replied: "I was sent by Kong Shuai."
Zhang Xian became even more excited: "The Kong Shuai you are talking about is Kong Yanzhou?"
"yes."
"Where are the others?"
Being a little surprised by Zhang Xian's excitement, Wang Yong said: "Kong Shuai is twenty miles due south at this time."
Yue Fei quickly took Zhang Xian's words. If he continued, Zhang Xian might say to his face: Take us to kill the man named Kong.
Yue Fei said: "Why did you come to us?"
"You all also escaped from the north, right?"
"Yes, we escaped." Yue Fei said smoothly.
"Kong Shuai has now taken refuge with His Majesty the Emperor of Qi. With the Jin people as his backers, why don't you all take refuge with Kong Shuai and find another way out."
Yue Fei and Zhang Xian were shocked. After questioning, they found out that Liu Yu proclaimed himself emperor with the support of the Jin people.
Yue Fei said: "We are willing to join Kong Shuai. Please ask the general to take us to see Kong Shuai."
Wang Yong was overjoyed and thought he had made a contribution.
Yue Fei reorganized 1,000 troops.
Wang Yong said: "You only have 1,000 people?"
"The rest are in Licheng, and the official has sent people to assemble them."
Wang Yong wondered again: "All your people are cavalry?"
"I won't hide it from Shangguan, they were all collected from the private sector!"
"Oh, that's good. If you dedicate these war horses to Kong Shuai, you will be greatly rewarded."
"Please lead the way."
Yue Fei's men all put on armor, and Wang Yong asked again: "These armors seem familiar, a bit like the armor of the Jin people."
Yue Fei said confidently: "We are affiliated to Hebei and are here to support the eastern front. These armors are the armors of the armies of Hebei. Don't get confused by Shangguan."
Wang Yong did not ask questions carefully and took Yue Fei all the way to the front of Kong Yanzhou's army.
When Yue Fei saw Kong Yanzhou's army, which had no military formations and was just a ragtag group of people, he asked Wang Yong: "Who is Kong Yanzhou?"
"That's the one from the Chinese Army."
As soon as Wang Yong finished speaking, Yue Fei suddenly said loudly: "My sons, kill them!"
He gave the order, and a thousand cavalry immediately rushed out with Yue Fei.
Kong Yanzhou was still discussing with others where to go to Jinan to search for more beauties to play with. The people below just came to report that Wang Yong had brought people there, and suddenly they heard the sound of killing.
Kong Yanzhou’s army looked confused: What’s going on?
Kong Yanzhou: What?
Yue Fei's troops rushed over and chopped down Kong Yanzhou's men until they ran away without any hindrance.
Eight thousand people roared, screamed and fled.
Kong Yanzhou looked confused. He was still thinking about the beauties he just discussed, but he never expected that his army had been defeated.
Half an hour later, Kong Yanzhou was captured.
Only from Kong Yanzhou did I learn more details about Liu Yu, and even learned about Zongfu's previous actions in Xuzhou.
Yue Fei quickly organized his troops and prepared to attack Liu Yu, and at the same time sent people to send this information to Daming Mansion and also sent a copy to the capital.
On the 22nd, the public turmoil caused by King Yun's rebellion was still raging in Tokyo. The clan members were trembling, and another piece of news reached the capital.
This news was like another boulder falling from the sky, causing the already turbulent Bianjing to stir up waves again.
According to urgent reports from the eastern front, Liu Yu, who was once appointed as the prison chief on Hebei Road, actually proclaimed himself emperor in Jinan and established the Qi State.
This is just like last year when everyone heard that Zhang Bangchang proclaimed himself emperor of the Shangdang Party, it was astonishing.
Of course, the war situation is changeable, and it is not just the people of Tokyo who are affected.
At this time in Yanjing, Banbo Jilie and Wanyan Gao were not much better.
Wanyan Gao sighed and said to his counselor Han Qixian: "Wushu withdrew to Zhending Mansion. His military report has been sent over. The results of this trip south will be limited."
Han Qixian said: "Your Highness, don't worry. The Wushu army has withdrawn. The focus will still be on Shaanxi, and Marshal Zong Han and Deputy Marshal Zong Fu will definitely return with a full load."
"I'm not worried about the two of them, but judging from Wu Shu's military reports, the Song army is very well prepared this time, and the Song Dynasty's awareness of resistance is indeed strengthening."
Han Qixian knew what Wanyan Gao was worried about.
Once the Song Dynasty's awareness of resistance strengthens, the Jin army's gains from continuing to use troops will decrease, and its investment will increase, and the Jin Dynasty's faction will inevitably rise.
For Wan Yangao, military affairs are politics.
"Your Highness, it is useless to worry too much. Now, it is urgent to mobilize the army back to sweep through Shaanxi, win over Xixia, and cut off the Shaanxi armies of the Song State. Once successful, the Song State will not be far away from being destroyed."
While the two were discussing, Wanyan Zonghan returned to Yanjing with the remaining soldiers.
He didn't even go to Taiyuan, because there were many Song Dynasty soldiers and civilians near Taiyuan, and it was quite risky for him to go to Taiyuan at this time, so he fled directly to Yanjing.
In fact, Zong Han had been defeated for more than 20 days. He deliberately did not send people to quickly convey the news, but went back himself to report the news to Wanyan Gao.
Zong Han: There is no way, let me explain in person, the Dog Emperor is crazy!
"Report, Your Highness, Marshal Zong Han is back."
Wanyan Gao didn't respond: "What? Zong Han came to Yanjing?"
"Yes, right outside."
