Six heads hang on the wooden beams at the gate of the Jinjun camp.

Their mouths were grinning, their eyes were looking ahead blankly, and their faces still retained the fear of the moment before they died.

These eight heads are the heads of the Jin Army cavalry that Yang Zaixing fought last night.

Mou Ke is a centurion, and Wu Liyan is Meng An, a commander of thousands.

According to the military law of the Jin Army, a commander of thousands will die in battle, and a centurion who escapes from battle will be executed.

Likewise, if a captain of ten thousand dies in battle, he will be executed when he returns.

This ensures the absolute protection of the security of the upper layer by lower-level officers, and also ensures the absolute command of the army by superior officers.

However, animals like humans cannot achieve 100% performance like machines. There are always people who sometimes escape uncontrollably and come back to make up various excuses.

Others simply slipped away quietly and did not return to the military camp, but it was no use.

Now Zong Han has sent people from the law enforcement team to look for it. If you have to look hard, you can find it.

Zong Han became famous in the Jin Kingdom for his military skills.

He will not let those people go easily, otherwise how can he run the army?

After killing these centurions, the remaining cavalry were all organized into formations.

The large forces of the Jin Army began to reorganize.

Just as Zhao Ning expected, Zong Han divided the army into two groups, the right to deal with Yue Fei, and the left to deal with Zhao Ning.

However, Zhao Ning's prediction was a bit wrong.

In the morning, Yue Fei learned that the elite Jin army had gathered, and he was naturally unwilling to be outdone.

The Shenwu Army began to gather quickly. Yue Fei put on his armor and came out of the commander's camp.

He walked onto the high platform and saw a faint black outline in front of him approaching quickly.

Looking down from a high altitude, countless densely packed small black dots are gathering and moving on the fields to form circular arrays, conical arrays, and square arrays.

This year's winter has been extremely cold. It's only the beginning of winter, and light snowflakes have already begun to fall.

Those soft snowflakes fell one by one, fell on the Shenwu Army formations that were more than two miles across, fell on the helmets of the soldiers, and then melted.

At a glance, the armor is like a sea, the swords and guns are like a forest, and the flags are flapping in the cold wind.

There were a large number of scouts moving back and forth between the military formations in front.

"Report! The main force of the golden thieves is only five miles away from our army!"

"Report! The main force of the gold thieves is about 10,000 people!"

"Report! The main force of the gold thieves is expected to be 20,000 people!"

"Report! There are 30,000 gold thieves!"

"..."

The scouts investigate according to the actual situation, and it is normal for the number of people to increase.

Zhang Jiefu said: "It seems that Zong Han has finally made up his mind not to play tricks. I just don't know how many troops Zong Han will allocate to deal with us?"

No one can answer this question.

"Report! Commander Yue, found a kidnapping horse in the Jin army and distributed the main force on the flanks."

Xue Bi said: "It is rumored that Zong Han has a large number of kidnapping horses under his command. He is the most respected commander of Wanyan Aguda. Even Wanyan Lou's house was under his command. The kidnapping horses in Lou's house were also deployed by Zong Han."

Zhang Jiefu said: "This time we are well prepared. We have eight thousand cavalry and can fight Zong Han's Guaizima!"

Yue Fei suddenly said: "Is Yang Zaixing back?"

"Reporting to Commander Yue, Commander Yang is on his way back."

"Where's Niu Gao?"

"Niu Dutong has returned and is currently reorganizing military affairs in the front army!"

Not long after, the scout came again to report: "Report! Commander Yue, the number of gold thieves is still increasing, and it has exceeded 60,000!"

"What!" Zhang Jiefu's expression changed, "Did the investigation go wrong?"

"The number of golden thieves is at least 60,000!" The scout replied affirmatively, "We have conducted many investigations."

"Could it be that Zong Han wants to suppress the main force on our side?"

Come and fight this battle!"

As soon as he said these words, Zhang Jiefu took a deep breath.

If this is the case, Zong Han will definitely come with all his troops, and then use empty troops to go to the imperial camp.

At present, Yue Fei only has a little more than 20,000 capable soldiers, and the rest are basically logistics.

Yue Fei, however, had a heavy and determined look on his face, and said: "Zong Han was defeated by Ueno in the past, but it is not invincible. Our army has been fighting all year round, and all the soldiers are not afraid of life and death. Why should we fear the gold thieves!"

By noon, the Scouting General report was also placed on Zhao Ning's table.

Zhao Ning was a little surprised: "How many gold thieves did you say came?"

"There are about 20,000 soldiers and horses."

"Twenty thousand soldiers and horses?" Zhao Ning was stunned for a moment, then narrowed his eyes and said, "Are you sure?"

Zhang Shuye on the side said: "Your Majesty, I have asked them to confirm again and again."

"What about the camp where the golden thief was stationed before?"

"Already empty."

Zhao Ning took a deep breath and said in a heavy tone: "Zong Han plans to use his troops to deal with Yue Fei!"

Gao Qiu said: "It is clear that His Majesty is here, why did he attack Yue Fei with heavy troops?"

"Have you heard the story of Tian Ji's horse racing?"

Gao Qiu shook his head like a rattle.

"Go back and study more."

"Yes!" Gao Qiu said with a smile, "However, if Zong Han dares to use 20,000 troops to confront His Majesty's 40,000 Imperial Guards, isn't he asking for death? After we defeat this Jin army, we can attack him directly from behind.

!”

"Even you, Gao Qiu, can think of it, but Zong Han can't?"

Gao Qiu was immediately speechless.

Zhao Ning said: "How about going to explore the 20,000 soldiers and horses sent by Zonghan?"

"yes!"

"What is Your Majesty worried about?"

Zhao Ning said: "Zong Han must have deployed elite infantry and cavalry here, especially the majority of cavalry. The cavalry can effectively prevent our army from raiding to assist Yue Fei."

After saying that, Zhao Ning walked out.

At this time, a cold wind like a knife was blowing outside, causing his cloak to flutter in the wind.

The young emperor looked into the distance and said: "Zong Han is more powerful than I imagined, and this war is more difficult than I imagined."

Na Zonghan was the number one strategic talent in the founding of the Jin Kingdom, and the person Wanyan Aguda relied on the most.

It can be said that during the founding of the Jin Kingdom, almost most of the strategic deployments came from Zong Han.

In the third battle between Song and Jin, the Jin army divided into three groups to attack the Song Dynasty. This was actually opposed by Zong Han.

Zong Han's clear strategic intention was to send the Jin army to Shaanxi, completely bulldoze Shaanxi in the Song Dynasty, penetrate Shaanxi's defenses and directly enter Sichuan to control the upper reaches of the Yangtze River.

However, Wanyan Wu Qimai and Zong Han had different strategic opinions, and in the end they still attacked the Song Dynasty in three directions.

Facts have proved that Zonghan is right.

The same is true in the official history. The Jin State was slow to take action in Shaanxi, giving Zhang Jun a chance. When it came time to take action, it also attacked the Song Dynasty in three directions. As a result, the elderly Lou family was exhausted, Wu Shu, Zong Fu and others were forced to go to Shaanxi to support

.

It can be said that Zong Han was a first-class person at the strategic and tactical levels at that time.

However, his fatal shortcoming is politics.

This is also the reason why people like Wu Shu were able to control the overall situation later.

Zong Han was in the right army, and he said to Wanyan Mengshi: "Yue Fei should not be underestimated. The Shenwu Army also has many cavalry, so we should not underestimate the enemy. This time we cannot just outflank the left and right wings. I want to give Yue Fei a tough frontal battle."
