Hu Yangeng dug out "North China Security War" again, and there was no clue. The book simply showed how many months and days to go out to sweep, encountered several battles, and killed several bandits. There were not many descriptions about how the author's opponent, the Eighth Route Army, how to establish and strengthen the organization and develop the base area.

"Oh, why is there no textbook for "How to Establish a Base?" Thinking of this, Hu Yangeng laughed silently. Another anti-Japanese base in time and space was built up by the Japanese army, relying on the courage and carefulness of various teams. There are no forming routines. Moreover, the ancient mass base, national consciousness, and material conditions were not much the same as those in the War of Resistance Against Japan.

He closed the "North China Security War". This book is a spiritual support for himself. Perhaps in the most difficult period in the future, when facing the sweeping of the eight-sided cage and ten-sided bunkers, it is an important spiritual food and can motivate himself to persevere. However, in the current situation of being a little warlord, he cannot find direct tactical reference from the book.

We still need to analyze the specific situation in Hedong. Perhaps, we should go to Hedong in person and chat with Ma Kuo. But we ran to Hedong by ourselves, and I don’t know what the reaction would be for Bianliang.

"Have you brought it? What changes have happened in Bianliang?" Yue Fei asked the spy anxiously.

Since the regent fled to Mingzhou, Yue Fei's army was like a kite with broken strings and rootless duckweed. He didn't know where to go, how the emperor and the queen mother were, where to go to obtain military rations, and the situation of the surrounding friendly and enemy troops.

Fortunately, there is a newspaper.

The Shuntian Times issued by Bianliang were sent from the north and sold in Yangzhou and Jinling. At the beginning, the Jin people were still banning these newspapers, but since Wanyan Wushu wanted to read the "Romance of Hujia Generals" and "Journey to the West", and the government part of Wanyan Wushu believed that it could be used for his own use, and these newspapers were circulating in Jinling, Yangzhou, Hangzhou and other places.

The smart Jiangnan vendors saw the business opportunity and found ways to get newspapers, copied them by themselves, and sold them in small places, earning dozens or hundreds of documents. Yue Fei's troops stationed in Zhongcun, Guangde Army, regularly sent people to search for these hand-written newspapers. Although it was a little late, at least I had some information about Bianliang.

The spy brought back half of the newspaper this time. Yue Fei was overjoyed and watched with Wang Gui, Tang Huai, Liu Jing and others. After reading a few words, Yue Fei's face darkened. "The Empress Dowager is doing poorly."

The first page of the newspaper was a great edict from the Bianliang court, which rebuked King Kang Zhao Gou for suspected murder of the emperor, and escaped from the disputes of returning to Beijing. He even killed a general, charmed the enemy country and scolded Zhao Gou for being a bloody voice.

Wang Gui said: "Brother, be careful of your words."

Tang Huai said: "King Kang fled from Yangzhou to Jinling, and then from Jinling to Hangzhou. Now I heard that he had fled to the sea, so the court should be punished."

Yue Fei looked at his brothers and said with a sigh: "The so-called loyal ministers, Wen is just a warning, and Wu is fighting. Why should I be careful? At present, the Jin thieves are plundering, and only the Regent can unite the hearts of the people in Jiangnan. Even if the Regent is wrong, he should make a decision after he defeats the Jin thieves and restores the mountains and rivers. The court rebukes the Regent so much that the king loses his prestige and the people in Jiangnan are lost, and the situation will be out of control."

Liu Jing said on the side: "What the ruler said is exactly what the general thought in his heart. They all said that they should protect Zhao Song and repay Zhao officials. But Bianliang is far away from the sky, and the regents in Jiangnan are all sinners. So who do we military men listen to?"

Liu Jing’s concerns are not without reason. The military men are illiterate, but it does not prevent them from getting news from various channels, no matter how exaggerated the news is.

There are rumors that Zhao Gou fled to the sea and was intercepted by the navy of the court. He took it back to Bianliang for crimes. All military soldiers who had been rewarded by the Regent had been rebelled.

There are also rumors that the court and the regent have turned against each other and have been defeated by the Jin thieves. Bianliang has been surrounded and can be removed soon.

Within three days, the military soldiers under Yue Fei fled 30%. Many soldiers became bandits who had plundered for a living. All kinds of bad news made the morale of the army fluctuate, and everyone felt that the future was bleak. The military rations were exhausted. Some soldiers under Yue Fei's subordinates fled to other armies and were willing to act as bandits. The imperial guards stationed in some places even sent people to ask Yue Fei as the leader to surrender to the Jin Dynasty.

Yue Fei was facing an unprecedented difficult and complex situation and had to make a quick decision. He summoned all the soldiers and said:

"Our Dutch country is kind to us. We should serve the country with loyalty and righteousness, establish fame, write bamboo and silk, and die and be immortal. If we surrender and become a captive, we will become a thief, and live a life of siege, and die, and be destroyed, how can we achieve it? Jiankang, Jiangzuo's land, and the barbarians' thieves will be robbed, so how can we establish a country? Today's affairs are dead and death are the only ones who will come out of this gate and behead them!"

His generous voice and passionate words made everyone cry, and everyone dared not have any other ambitions. Yue Fei finally said to Liu Jing and other troops:

"I will never rebel against Song, nor will I harm the country and the people. Do you believe me or not?"

"How dare we doubt the general?" Liu Jing and other dependent generals replied.

"Anyone who does not want to surrender or is a thief, follow me! I will never let you down."

"I hope to follow the general and never surrender to the enemy!" Liu Jing and others expressed their willingness to follow Yue Fei and fight against the Jin Dynasty together.

Yue Fei also posted a heroic post, inviting the rioters near Guangde Army, bandits, and the leaders of the puppet army who had surrendered to Jin to come to Zhongcun to "discuss a way out."

Yue Fei pretended to agree to the various scattered soldiers who came to surrender the Jin Dynasty and asked them to hand over their military status. When they arrived on the scheduled date, Yue Fei led his confidants three or five, fully armed, "bending the bow and jumping horse" to compete with the brave and healthy men of each unit, and defeated dozens of people in succession. Finally, Yue Fei pointed out the military status and shouted to everyone:

"I am so strong that you and others can make great contributions to the court, take the Central Plains, receive rewards from the emperor, and return to your hometown. Isn't that honorable? You must be able to cleanse your old thoughts and can be followed. If you don't listen, you would rather kill me first, so I will never follow your rebellion!"

Yue Fei's attitude was decisive and righteous, and finally made everyone regret it. Everyone admired Yue Fei's bravery and said in unison:

"Only the ruler controls the fate!"

In a dangerous and complex situation, Yue Fei's clever and decisive handling demonstrated his extraordinary wisdom and courage, and also reunited the soldiers under the overall goal of resisting the Jin Dynasty with one heart and one virtue.

Despite this, the lack of military rations still threatened the survival of this army. Yue Fei tried every means to raise military rations and provide as much as possible to the enemy. He and his soldiers shared the joys and sorrows, and each time they had a meal.

He always shares crude food with inferior soldiers. Yue Fei believes that when supply is difficult, strict military discipline must be maintained. He stipulated that although all soldiers endure hunger and difficulties, they must practice or be on duty in the camp and are not allowed to privately harass the people.

Yue Fei's series of actions in the Guangde Army finally stabilized the situation temporarily. Yue Wudi became the de facto pillar of the Song army in the Jiangnan region.
