The black smoke column rose into the sky with the burning flames. What was burning was golden rice ears, and the smell of charred rice grains were filled in the sky. Then, the steps and the sound of shouting were mixed together. In the field of vision, the road
There were crowds running around, hurried steps and various shouts.
"...I'm leaving, the Jurchen cavalry has already been fought. Go to the city. Several big cities in the north have been slaughtered. Do you know that all the people in Dizhou have been killed.
No dog left..."
The shouts of officials in front gathered in the crowd and became intermittent. A woman carried a basket and rushed down the rice fields with a sickle, crying and trying hard to harvest. The ragged old woman screamed and rushed towards the soap on the roadside
Li: "You beat me to death, you beat me to death, I won't leave! Let the Jurchens come and eat my old bones...you are evil..."
Someone stopped the old woman. The old woman struggled and finally fell to the ground, her head was knocked on a stone, and then there was blood. In the chaos and noise of the people, on one side of the road, the villagers and soldiers broke out.
In a small conflict, the county magistrate ran over and shouted, "Don't hit, don't hit." Suddenly, a stone flying over his forehead was hit by a flying stone, and blood flowed down from his head.
This moment of conflict triggered greater chaos. The autumn wind whistled by, and the fire helped the wind to push the fire in the field away, as if it was a long red and black carpet, with rice ears and grass,
Toward the distant woods...
Everyone in the chaos looked from afar and were stunned by the huge flames.
From Yanggu County to west. Hebei Road and most parts of Hebei Road are stretched in a gloomy autumn rain. The raindrops are rushing down in the hazy sky, and on the road from north to south, wearing straw raincoats.
Pedestrians carrying bags and pack horses carrying luggage, and carts crowded south. The old man was not resistant to the cold rain and fell to the ground. The child in the woman's arms was wet by the rain and cried loudly. The stations and restaurants along the way were moved
The pedestrians are full.
On the banks of the Yellow River in the autumn rain, all the ferries are full. In the ups and downs, all the ships are constantly traveling back and forth.
In mid-August of the 13th year of Jinghan, a huge clearing of the world began.
"Huh, it's so good to be young..."
To the south of Dongping Prefecture, a crowd came and went, in the busy and noisy courtyard. Ning Yi, who had only slept for more than an hour, came out of the room. After washing his face, he felt the above feeling. In the distance, there were the fire clouds.
Running horses came from time to time outside the courtyard. Various news came, from west to east, Hedongdong, Hedongdong, Jingdongdong, Jingdongdong, Hebei and other five roads, and the current situation of nearly 20 prefectures and nearly 100 counties, all of which were all
Here we summarize, members of Zhuji's staff team come in and out, summarize the information and formulate countermeasures, and also wait for Ning Yi or Wen Renbuer to make a reply.
Qin Shaoqian strode in from outside the courtyard. Wu Ruijun's barracks were nearby at this time. For several days, there have been various actions. Qin Shaoqian occasionally came to visit. Ning Yi smiled: "I just got up, and I should have said good morning, but
Look, it’s almost dark. Second Young Master comes here and there is something good about it…”
"Zong Han's attack on Taiyuan began yesterday." Qin Shaoqian held a piece of intelligence in his hand.
Ning Yi's expression was slightly stunned, then reached out to bring the information, the staff member who was walking by handed over a piece of paper, and whispered: "We have received it just now."
Ning Yi took two pieces of paper and looked there. In fact, this was something that had been expected, and for Ning Yi, the meaning of the information sent was just to look at it. But the confirmation of the news meant that Taiyuan
The situation of the siege has been settled, and Qin Shaohe, Li Pin, Cheng Zhouhai and others have all been trapped in it. Because of the acquaintances, the news is more or less heavy.
"Things that are far away in the sky started to attack yesterday. Maybe it's broken at this time. I'm just taking them over to show you. It's not Liheng's business, why bother?" Seeing Ning Yi frowned slightly, Qin Shaoqian's
Instead, his smile became open-minded and reached out to get the information back.
Ning Yi glanced at him: "Taiyuan is a strong city, it should not be as fast as you said."
"My elder brother looks more pedantic than my father on weekdays. In fact, he reads more military books than me. He understands guarding the city and does not command blindly. There are people in the city who have you recorded in the bamboo books, and there are also Chengzhou.
Hai, I understand him best. He is a poisonous man. He can't hold on with your men. He can drive all the people in the city to the city wall. I don't think it's going to be broken, but if it's going to be broken, it's going to be broken
, That's because of fate." Qin Shaoqian looked bearded and smiled simply, "The most important thing is that distant water cannot quench near thirst. It's useless to worry about Taiyuan, you and me."
"It's good to think clearly." Ning Yi smiled, "What about you here."
"I'm going to tell you about this." Qin Shaoqian said, "I'm ready to send troops."
Ning Yi looked at him, then looked at the sunset in the distance, and then sighed again.
This day is August fifteenth.
***************
In mid-August, north of the Yellow River, it was already in great chaos.
Following Wanyan Zonghan, Wanyan Loushi went to Xinzhou and Daizhou, a slight adjustment was made. The Jurchen West Route Army drove tens of thousands of people and prisoners and pushed the troops to Taiyuan, Longcheng.
To the east, with Guo Yaoshi's ever-winning army as the vanguard, the nearly 100,000 troops on the west road led by Wanyan Zongwang did not attack the city after deterring Jinan. Instead, under the leadership of Guo Yaoshi, they inserted straight into the southwest. The army quickly
Enter the central area between Jinan, Daming and Dongping.
The Jurchen soldiers rolled in, destroying all the way. After breaking through Yanjing and the three towns in Hebei, the Eastern Route Army almost stopped along the way. The Wu Dynasty army along the way was either quickly defeated or on the defense line.
Before he formed, he was left behind by the army. At this time, he had entered a delicate situation.
At present, the wing army that guarded Jinan, Daming, Dongping and other places, as well as the three armies including Wuwei, Wusheng, Wurui, etc., have been mobilized with the beginning of the battle.
It was siegeing the Jurchen Eastern Army in a horn, and the atmosphere was solemn. The battle was about to begin again. Ning Yi followed Wu Rui Camp to Dongping for only three days, and the situation of the stable walls and clearing the wilderness had just begun. The battle was already in front of him.
.
The rhythm of this war was not decided by the Wu Dynasty, but originated from the Jurchens. Once the more than 200,000 troops hesitate for a moment, Wanyan Zongwang's Eastern Army will break through Daming, Dongping, and enter the heart of the Central Plains.
But the so-called imminent breakout is just a mandarin to the insider. Wanyan Zongwang's Eastern Route Army took Guo Yaoshi as the vanguard, starting from his vanguard troops' intimidation of Jinan and not being launched. The entire situation within a radius of hundreds of miles was
It was completely controlled by the Jurchens. It was said that more than 200,000 troops of the Wu Dynasty were hoarded in three directions. In fact, it was hard to say who dared to go out when fighting. Most of the troops in three directions were arguing, Dizhou
After the massacre of the city, no one was able to lay the foundation for a tough battle. But the Jurchens were about to rush over from the encirclement.
Everything came too fast, even for Ning Yi.
"Fifty thousand people go to guard Shouzhang County. There are 100,000 people opposite you from Zong Wang and Guo Yaoshi. No matter what, the second young master. I can't buy you and win this time."
The sunset was red, Ning Yi suppressed the things at hand, walked out of the yard with Qin Shaoqian with the wine and meat, and watched the military camp in the distance on the nearby grass slope. Qin Shaoqian took a sip of wine: "There are at least more than 200,000.
”
"I can't say what kind of virtues are those people from Zhang Youqing in Jinan, and I don't know how to fight, but if you really believe it, I will give you four words."
"Oh? What's the point of Liheng?"
“Wind Forest Volcano.”
"Sun Tzu's Art of War..."
"Retreat and move forward as fast as the wind, and encircle Xu Rulin. Raid money and invade fire, and friendly forces remain as fast as mountains when they are in trouble..."
Qin Shaoqian was stunned for a while on the grass slope, then laughed loudly, and after a while, he said, "Then why should I fight?"
"...Yes." Ning Yi took a sip of wine and murmured.
Qin Shaoqian said: "But no matter what, you have to go. No matter what, I also want to compete with famous generals like Wanyan Zongwang and Guo Yaoshi."
The two brothers of the Qin family were both civil and military. They used to be officials outside, but because Qin Siyuan valued Ning Yi, they still had exchanges when they came back occasionally. Qin Shao and Qin Shaoqian regarded Ning Yi as their father's colleague and even his father's wife.
One of the successors, in a sense, is a clique or even a family member, and the relationship is really good. But this time, the Jurchens came quickly. Ning Yi had just gone north, Qin Shaohe was trapped in Taiyuan, and Qin Shaoqian was already going to Shouzhang to meet directly
Wanyan Zongwang, no matter what, this feeling is a bit complicated after all.
Although Qin Shaoqian said it lightly, he had the heroic spirit of fighting against famous generals in the world, and Ning Yi also knew that he had the ability, but the Wu Dynasty had already had a deep constraint on the generals. As the commander of the Wu Ruiying camp, he could command the army to fight, but the highest level of the army
Management, on the contrary, belonged to him, the current Dongping Prefecture Strategy and Pacification Envoy.
Although Qin Shaohe was a civil servant, he guarded Taiyuan and had the highest command of the army in Taiyuan. Qin Shaoqian not only had civil servants who could speak, but he only took a year to truly command Wu Rui camp.
, the management of the army was not able to penetrate into all aspects of this army. Even if the civil servants had fewer checks and balances against him because of Qin Siyuan, the powerful father. If he had to say that he could lead the army of Wu Ruiying to block the Jurchen Ten
Wan Dajun, that is something that no one can believe.
Of course, Qin Shaoqian himself may not be confident. As a soldier, he no longer thought about it. Ning Yi naturally understood it. After saying the previous few words, the two of them drank for a while, and Qin Shaoqian spoke.
He asked: "Liheng thinks how the outcome of this battle is. If he loses, how much money will we pay to get things done?"
"Does the Second Master think it's just a loss?"
"The Black Water Alliance also loses money. The 200,000 Jurchens cannot occupy our territory."
"The Liao Kingdom of the Black Water Alliance is old and I am satisfied with it after taking the annual monies. The Jurchens have just founded the country and are on the road to progress, so it is hard to say." Ning Yi hesitated for a moment, "and I have done too much in the past few years to do so.
Now.”
Qin Shaoqian was silent for a while and looked at Ning Yi: "I am a military man, only fighting. Liheng, you are a literati. Just like my father, you understand the overall situation. Do you really think that you have reached this point?"
The distant mountains are old. Although the two have a good relationship in the past, they have just met for a few days this time. Things are busy and there is not much time to chat. But at this time, when the wine helps talk about sex, the autumn wind blows over, it is more
I talked for a long time.
"I'm not sure." Ning Yi handed the wine pot to Qin Shaoqian and said, "But some things are the only one thing, so you can chat around. In the past few days, various news came here, not only the Golden Man has hit him where he has hit him.
, it was not just about strengthening the walls and clearing the wilderness. Since the Jurchens headed south, the resistance in various places never stopped. First, Master Zhou Dong and Zhou led more than 70 people to assassinate Wanyan Zonghan, and then there was a small county called Shuanghe in three towns in Hebei.
In order to cover the evacuation of more than 5,000 people, the county magistrate Du Yongnian attracted the attention of the Jurchens with more than 300 people. They fought hard with more than 500 Jurchen cavalry for two hours through the terrain. After the entire army was wiped out, Du Yongnian
He was captured and waited in front of Wanyan Zongwang's seat. The other party saw his bravery and said a few words to him. Du Yongnian cursed Zongwang from beginning to end, and was finally beheaded and showed up in public."
Ning Yi said as he took a sip of wine: "Then the ancient mountain village in Hebei... It was originally a bandit village, but you know, many people were still in the village at the foot of the mountain. When the Jurchens passed by, they slaughtered the village.
There were more than a hundred people in it. Under the leadership of the village leader Wang Cheng, they ambushed the Jurchen army and rushed straight to the main lineup. After Wang Cheng, Yang Xiao, the chief escort officer of the Yang Wei Escort Agency, sent off his escort agency staff and family.
, assassinating Wanyan Zongwang alone, he was one of Zhou Tong's disciples. At the same time, the Green Forest He Wang brought more than ten masters, and also assassinating Zongwang... In the past few days, there are all kinds of news, just
I never stopped, so I asked my subordinates to make them up into stories and tell them. What do you think after listening to them?"
"Okay, they are all heroes." Qin Shaoqian looked slightly solemn, patted his thighs, showing respect, "There is still hope that I can have these people in Wu Dynasty!"
"No, it is these people that appear, which means that most of the people in this country have not done what they should do." Ning Yi was also drunk and waved his fingers in the air, "The appearance of these heroes,
It means that after the founding of the Wu Dynasty, the dividends accumulated in a positive direction have been completely squandered by its predecessors." (To be continued, please search for astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
ps: Okay, let's start with a simple rhythm. This chapter has overturned at least six starts in a row. The past eight days have been all about it, from brewing to writing to continuously overturning and rewriting, and now it's finally confirmed
The core of the next plot. The seven-day double monthly ticket for New Year's Day was empty. The editor on the Sixth scheduled me a ban and finally had to ask the editor to remove it. The window was empty at the beginning of the year, which was indeed not good, but at least,
I am worthy of the book itself and my literary goddess... Alas, it would be a waste of time to write like this... But it's good, in the new year, continue to write well!
