"Okay, you are really brave. We have killed 40,000 Jin troops, and you who surrendered to the Jin army dare to resist." The soldier slowly raised his right hand, and all the soldiers were ready, waiting for
With an order, they will attack the troops led by Han Shizhong and Yue Fei.
At this time, since Han Shizhong and Yue Fei did not lead their troops, there were only about two thousand soldiers here.
Han Shizhong felt horrified. He knew that once the army on the opposite side started to charge, they would be killed here.
Yue Fei rode forward: "I am Yue Fei, the commander-in-chief of the Yue family army. Here is the red tassel spear. You may recognize it."
The soldier who was carrying the Wei Army stopped immediately when he heard Yue Fei's name. After careful identification, he discovered that it was really Yue Fei. This was like a flood that had washed away the Dragon King Temple, and the whole family no longer knew each other.
"This subordinate is carrying Weijun Cao Xiu to pay homage to your lord."
"Are you carrying the Wei Army?" Yue Fei exclaimed, "Why have you changed your appearance after not seeing him for a few days?"
"Exactly. Your Excellency, please forgive me. We pursued the Jin Army all night long. We were so exhausted that we did not recognize you, Your Excellency. Please forgive me."
Although Yue Fei was angry that the Wei army massacred and surrendered to the Jin army, he knew that Liu Chan should be the priority at the moment.
"Where is Your Majesty? Where is Your Majesty?"
"Your Majesty should now pursue the Jin army elsewhere."
Mentioning Liu Chan, Cao Xiu was very proud. After all, it was His Majesty who ordered the battle, and he defeated the 40,000 Jin army with 5,000 soldiers, and he was the strongest elite of the Jin Kingdom.
In the military, as long as you can fight, others will obey you.
"Chasing the Jin Army? What happened?"
"Don't you know yet? Jin Wushu sent an army of 40,000 to besiege Yancheng. Our army defeated the greater number with a small number. Now we have defeated Jin Wushu and are annihilating the fleeing Jin soldiers."
"What, please explain in detail."
Cao Xiu was a little unwilling to wait here for a long time, even if Yue Fei came to ask in person. Now was an excellent opportunity to make military achievements. If he missed this time, he didn't know when the next one would come.
After all, His Majesty told us when he had dinner with us that after this battle, it would take several years for him to recover before launching another war.
"General, why don't you go to the rear to meet His Majesty in person? We still have the task of chasing the Jin army, so we can't stay long. Farewell!"
After saying that, Cao Xiu rode his horse and left directly. The other soldiers who carried the Wei army also left directly after saying goodbye, leaving only Han Shizhong and Yue Fei behind.
In the face of military success, everything is vain.
"You seem to be too arrogant as a soldier carrying the Wei army."
Han Shizhong sneered. Those soldiers who were backing the Wei army dared to attack him directly. They really didn't take him seriously.
Hu Yantong scolded directly from behind: "What the hell, isn't it just a victory? What's so great about it?"
Hearing Hu Yantong's words, Han Shizhong and Yue Fei woke up with a start. They had won the battle? Which reinforcements arrived to help the Wei army win the battle, but there were not many Song troops near Yancheng.
Han Shizhong and Yue Fei did not believe that the 5,000-carrying Wei army could defeat the 40,000 Jin elites, so they subconsciously thought that reinforcements were coming.
After Han Shizhong and Yue Fei regrouped their troops, they rushed forward without stopping, but they relaxed a lot. When they were not far from Yancheng, Han Shizhong and Yue Fei saw black smoke rising in the sky from a distance.
There were some burning flames, and the air was filled with the smell of burning.
Yue Fei and Han Shizhong looked at each other: "Burn the city."
Immediately, the two men no longer took their time leisurely, but asked the army to stay here. They led some personal guards to go to Yancheng to meet Liu Chan in person.
At this time, Liu Chan had ended his pursuit and said tiredly to Yue Yun: "All the Jin troops who fled to the south have been dealt with. Fortunately, they did not cause much trouble to the people."
"The east side has been dealt with, and now we are left with the west and north. Although there are many villages in the west, there are very few golden soldiers escaping, so it will not cause too much damage."
"Okay, you can continue to be responsible for this."
"Your Majesty, a large-scale army has been spotted in the distance and has been stationed not far outside the city." A soldier ran in and said, looking eager to try, clearly wanting to make another military exploit.
"Gather the troops in the city and follow me to meet them."
"Yes." The soldier immediately walked away excitedly.
"Could Shunchang be captured?" Yue Yun asked doubtfully. Unless the Jin army captured Shunchang, there shouldn't be so many enemies here.
"Just go and take a look and you'll find out."
When Liu Chan and Yue Fei gathered their troops and rushed outside the city, they immediately saw Han Shizhong, Yue Fei and Liu Qi running towards them.
"The general's rescue came too late, please forgive me, Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty, please forgive me."
Who is kneeling? Yue Fei, the commander of the Yue Family Army, Wang Gui, the commander of the Chinese Army, and Zhang Xian, the commander of the former army; Han Shizhong, the commander of the Han Family Army, Huyantong, the commander of the Chinese Army; Liu Qi, who was left behind in Luoyang, and a group of personal guards.
"How's Shunchang doing?"
This sentence made Han Shizhong's heart suddenly hit the bottom: "Your Majesty, the Jin army that besieged Shunchang has been defeated and fled."
"Fleeing? How many golden soldiers escaped?"
"About 40,000?" Han Shizhong's head bowed even further.
"Forty thousand? Jin Wushu raised 40,000 troops to attack Yancheng. You only have 60,000 Jin troops, and none of them are elite. An army of 170,000 failed to keep those 60,000 troops. You are a waste."
Liu Qi complained in his heart that in fact Jin Wushu brought fifty thousand gold troops, and Shunchang only had fifty thousand. But he could say this now, of course he couldn't.
"Liu Qi, you are stationed in Luoyang, what are you doing in Yancheng?"
"Your Majesty, Jin Wushu led an army of 50,000 to attack Luoyang. After losing 10,000 Jin troops, he suddenly withdrew his troops on the third day. Only when I arrived at Shunchang did I find that Jin Wushu had come to attack Yancheng.
Come here."
"Oh, that's it." Liu Chan sneered and looked at Han Shizhong: "In other words, there are only 50,000 Jin troops in Shunchang. Mr. Han, you are really powerful."
"The last general is guilty. Please forgive me immediately. I will never refuse." Han Shizhong kowtowed directly. No matter what the result was, he made a big mistake this time.
He was the one who put Liu Chan in danger and failed to rescue him. Zongxian even deceived him with an army of 50,000 for almost half a month, and the 50,000 army had not yet been left.
Liu Chan ignored Han Shizhong and looked at Yue Fei: "Yue Fei, have Bianliang been captured?"
"Your Majesty, Bianliang is already in our hands."
"Haha, in our hands? Are you sure that the troops you left behind in Bianliang can withstand the Jin Army's front and rear attacks? There are 40,000 troops in front and the entire Jin Kingdom behind. Are you sure they can hold on until we can support them?"
