After the Jurchens established their country, they used small tribes to rule the subjects of many other ethnic groups that were much larger than them.
Therefore, they have a set of laws that strictly control ethnic groups other than Jurchens in Jin.
Hong Tianming was tied to a wooden stake. Several Jurchen Tatars smiled cruelly, poured some fuel on the fire, and lit it on fire.
Several young disciples desperately tried to come forward to rescue them, but were chopped down by the Jurchen Tatars at will. At this time, Longshan was full of Jurchen elites, and soon they would pour in from the Longshan Valley and the Luanhe River area.
Youyan.
Jingzhou was the first to bear the brunt. Soldiers and horses were mobilized back and forth in the city to strengthen several nearby fortresses, acting as horns for each other.
The current morale of the Song army is not what it used to be, and of course they will not abandon the surrounding fortresses without fighting.
Jie Yuan had already made preparations for a field battle with the Jurchens outside the city. At this time, Han Shizhong led the army and rushed to help, and people's hearts became more stable.
The defenders on the tower hurriedly lowered the suspension bridge. Han Shizhong turned around and said: "Qu Duan, you lead your troops to garrison the North Castle Wall. Wei Xian, you lead your men to garrison the East Wall. The others will follow me into the city!"
A group of soldiers entered Jingzhou City with murderous intent and twisted their wrist guards. Han Shizhong took a glance and was very satisfied with the layout of the city.
Youyan has been preparing for this war, so places like Jingzhou are simply complete military towns.
There are not many people in the city. Once a war breaks out, the old, weak, women and children will be moved first. In Jizhou and other places in the rear, there are special resettlement houses responsible for accepting and settling these people.
Especially in the Tanzhou area, because of the long front line, Han Shizhong carried out the campaign very thoroughly.
This is also because he had seen the Jurchen fighting style during the first Youyan War.
Different from the previous battles with foreign tribes such as Khitan and Xixia, the Jurchens do not fight with you, but with generals. They like to drive vassal troops and Shengkou to consume the enemy on the opposite side, and then use cruel situations to oppress them.
Opponent's morale.
If they were really allowed to drive a group of their compatriots, these Song soldiers would inevitably have different thoughts even if they knew they wanted to cut off the arms of strong men.
Han Shizhong climbed up the city tower, looked at the refugees who were constantly fleeing south in Longshan area, and said solemnly: "The Jurchen Tatars are the most cruel and cruel group of aliens in history. They are like beasts and have no humanity. We won this battle.
I must speak to the young master and get rid of the root! If it is not completely eradicated, its descendants will be in trouble again in the future when it comes back from the ashes."
The surrounding generals were convinced and nodded one after another. At this time, Jie Yuan came over, clasped his fists slightly and said: "Han Shuai, the last general just went to set up the stone-throwing camp in the south of the city and didn't have time to greet him."
Han Shizhong nodded and said: "Lao Jie, there are many powerful Yan people in the Longshan area. These people have their own system and have never been under our command. In order to quickly regain Youyan, the young master promised them some benefits.
Now that the Jurchens have broken Longshan, these people may not be of the same mind as us, and there may be a lot of money to be paid. So the most important thing is to be careful of these guys, who act as Jurchen spies."
"Speaking of which, we were careless. Since the Jin people broke through the Liao state capital and occupied the territory of Daliao, they naturally also obtained the topographic map of Youyan. When this place fell into the hands of the Liao people for a hundred years, the map must have been
It’s very clearly drawn.”
"Who the hell would have thought that there is a small road in Longshan, on the cliff, and Jurchen Tatars would really dare to walk on it."
Jie Yuan bared his teeth and smiled and said: "I heard a Liao man in the army say that these Jurchen Tatars, when it is cold and freezing, hunt tigers and deer in their snow dens, and they walk on steep mountain walls as if they were walking on shoes.
Flat ground.”
Behind Han Shizhong, a bearded military man disagreed: "How can it be so mysterious? It's just a risky move and a lucky success. To put it bluntly, they don't take their own lives as their own. These people are really ruthless and don't just look down on others.
Life is like a piece of grass, and I don’t care about my own life at all.”
Han Shizhong smiled and said: "How can anyone not care about their own life? These thieves and thieves are just carrying pig skins and they don't know the pain."
The refugees outside the city were still heading south. Han Shizhong pondered: "Should we send someone to escort them?"
Jie Yuan shook his head and said: "These are Yan people who have lived here for generations. They are more familiar with the roads than us. Why waste our troops in the current war?"
Han Shizhong thought it made sense and stopped talking.
In the Yanshan area, Hong Tianding stopped escaping. He called everyone together and said loudly: "Dear elders, when we get to Yanshan, there are officers and soldiers blocking the way. The Jurchen Tatars should not be able to catch up. We, the Hongjiazhai, have the largest number of people.
, there is also some food given by the Jingzhou garrison, you can take it with you and continue going south. A few of the young people from Hongjiazhai will stay with me here, waiting for news about my eldest brother."
At this time, he didn’t know that Hong Tianming had been burned to death, and he wanted to wait here. A middle-aged man nearby echoed: “Erlang, if all the young people stay here, I’m afraid that the people in our village won’t be able to share the benefits on the road.
The food obtained.”
Hong Tianding nodded and said: "Fourth uncle, you take a hundred or ten people with you and follow them as they continue walking. I only need to leave ten people here. Otherwise, if there are too many people left, they will not have enough food, and they will be easily exposed."
The middle-aged man didn't talk nonsense and continued pushing the grain with the people in the village.
Everyone else was eager to escape to Jizhou as soon as possible. Only a few local snakes from Yan came to say goodbye to him.
A group of people lurked in the mountains, and Hong Tianding ordered his men to mark the Hongjiazhai.
"As long as the eldest brother escapes, he will go to Yanshan. We will mark every intersection, and then we will look around. If anything happens, come here to find me."
The nine people clasped their fists and quickly disappeared into the jungle. These Yan people know Yanshan Hushui best.

In Fuzhou Prefecture, Yang Lin looked at Zhang Boyu who came to pay homage with a smile, and said with a smile: "Is it difficult for you to rest assured and leave Jiaozhi to see me?"
Zhang Boyu had a flattering smile on his face and said: "With our Song Dynasty Tigers and Ben troops guarding Jiaozhi, it can be said that the sea, the rivers and the rivers are clear, so there is nothing to worry about."
Yang Lin has been busy dealing with the New Deal in Lingnan these days, and the situation here is much more complicated than in the provinces he passed through.
The Song Dynasty always regarded Lingnan as a remote and remote place and did not pay much attention to it at all.
As a result, a large number of local snakes have spawned here, completely controlling the land and wealth. The abolition of corvee can be said to have directly touched their fundamental interests.
Many Lingnan officials were corrupted and became these people's watchdogs and puppets.
Yang Lin had been tired for several days and had found out some clues. When he was very tired, Zhang Boyu came from Jiaozhi.
Yang Lin only felt funny in his heart. This guy was afraid that he would kill himself. In fact, this person had some uses, and Yang Lin had no intention of doing anything to him in the end.
Just when I was about to exchange a few words, a guard came in and whispered: "Young Master, there is information from the north, saying that the Jurchens are massively increasing their troops. It seems that there is a big move."
Yang Lin frowned and asked, "What did Han Shizhong say?"
At this time, the second batch of messengers had not yet arrived. When these people came, Aguda had not yet formally conscripted himself.
The guard shook his head and said: "Han Shuai said that there is a high possibility that the Jin soldiers will march southward. But he also said that to reassure Shaozai, the Great Wall Corps will never let the Jin soldiers succeed in going south."
Yang Lin closed his eyes, thought carefully, and said after a while: "As soon as there is news, report it immediately."
