Chapter 21 The Improver of Jinhua Ham
After gathering the rear army, Zong Wang's troops began to cross the river.
Of course, the rear army did not only robbery troops everywhere, but also a large number of supplies, which were all necessary supplies for siege and food.
Yes, in Wanyan Zongwang's heart, those were not the Jin Han army, but the Han thief army.
For traitors, they are not limited to their race, and they are always hostile, even Guo Yaoshi, a rebel general of Liao.
Even though Guo Yaoshi started to invest in gold and tried his best to help the Jin soldiers conquer the city and land, even in his heart, Guo Yaoshi was also a standard slave of the three surnames.
It is useful now. When it is like a guest of honor, when it is useless, you will naturally be granted a free official and no longer use it.
Wanyan Zongwang stood on the Yellow River and stopped. This river was the boundary of barbarians. For thousands of years, no one could pass through this natural line of defense.
The Xiongnu, Donghu, Uighurs, Khitan, Dangxiang, Rouran, and Liao Kingdoms have never stepped on the defense of the Yellow River. For the Diyi tribe in the Central Plains, the Yellow River is an obstacle that they cannot escape from, crossing the river to forge the Central Plains.
A sacred boundary that Di Yi could not avoid, the Yellow River Line, this big river spanning the vast plain, is the last line of defense for the Central Plains dynasty. After stepping through this sky, it is the capital of the Central Plains dynasty, Bianjing.
"Cross the river!" Zong Wang used all his strength and roared, and tens of thousands of soldiers stepped onto the embankment of the Yellow River and walked towards the frozen Yellow River.
Crossing the river, this dream was realized today in the hands of the Jin people!
From the name of Di Yi to the present day! The so-called Northern Di finally crossed the river, and from today on, he will kill through the Central Plains dynasty!
Among the Diyi in the Central Plains culture, there were only Jin people who were solemnly from Xiangzhou and the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River tore openly open the defense line of the Central Plains and completely enter the Central Plains!
This is a historic moment. No matter what the result is, he has accomplished unprecedented things! Even if he is defeated, he will not regret it at all!
Qin chased the Donghu and the Huns to fight, and the Han directly led the Huns into the northern part of the Mobei region. Even in the three kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty, the people of the Central Plains often drove thousands of miles away, showing their civil and military achievements!
I, Diyi, is the place where you Han people make achievements? When you talk about civil and military achievements, you will tell me how many miles of Guan’s journey is?
Wanyan Zongwang was very proud. Today he also traveled thousands of miles to the capital of the Han people, under the city of Bianjing!
Today, cross the Yellow River and break the Bianjing! Determine the Central Plains! His ambition also grows freely as he crosses this frozen river!
Wanyan Zongwang accelerated his steps, and the war horses walked forward on the ice and walked slowly. Although it was slow, they still passed through the Yellow River step by step.
Zong Ze led the Hebei system commander's duties and was in charge of Hebei's military affairs. Within two days, nearly 20,000 righteous men came to him.
He led 30,000 troops and quietly arrived at the north bank of the Yellow River, where Wanyan Zongwang crossed the river. On one side, he was in a messy abandoned camp!
According to temple calculations, their strategic goal is to intercept the defeated soldiers after the opponent's defeat.
He received an order from Zhong Shidao to intercept the Jin soldiers' retreat!
Before the battle, I will win first? Will it be a little too much? Zong Ze shook his head, put away this thought, and began to be busy with the military camp.
Quickly repair the camp and renovate 30,000 soldiers.
He was humble and had no power. Under the arrangement of the censor Chen Guoting, he was listed in the court as the young minister of Zong Zheng.
Before this, he had never been in charge of military affairs. The job he did was to repair the emperor's family tree, divide the direct descendants and concubines, take charge of the famous and famous departments of the clan, and make a genealogy of princes and kings of the same surname every year.
When Zhao Huan granted him the Hebei Commander, he was very unwilling. Although he was promoted from the fourth rank to the third rank, the official official was transferred from the civil servant to the military officer.
The Song Dynasty emphasized culture and over military officials, and the status of military officers was low. However, when Zhao Huan was appointed, he did not refuse, nor could he refuse.
During the national crisis, he could not tolerate much thought. For this reason, he returned home and was scolded by his mother.
"Doctor Zong, the special envoy of Jung Shaobao!" A soldier in front of the account interrupted Zong Ze's reverie. Although he had never actually touched the military, the military was orderly and good.
Am I born as a military officer? No, no, no, I want to be a civil servant! Zong Ze really wanted to refuse to admit that he had the qualifications to be a general, which was an extremely passive talent in the Song Dynasty.
Well, he doesn't want to be a military officer.
Anyway, the commander was a dispatcher, not a pure military officer. After fighting, he would become his own Zongzheng Shaoqing.
But the entire camp was in his hands, like an arm and finger, in order. It was so happy when organizing the army!
It seems as if I was born to do this? Do I have military talent?
No! He is just preparing a family tree for the emperor, and he is not among the army! This is what Zong Ze thinks.
"Please!" Zong Ze would not lead the troops, and several adjutants sent by Zhong Shidao helped a lot.
No matter how talented he is, it is useless to have no one to teach him. Several adjutants implemented his command intention very thoroughly.
Moreover, the suggestions he made were unanimously praised by the adjutants.
At first he thought he was a civil servant's attribute bonus, which made the other party look up to him. Later he found out that this was not the case. After a few suggestions, the entire military camp and the recruited rebels looked like a regular army.
"Zhong Shaobao ordered Doctor Zong not to act rashly. The imperial guards were weak in military equipment, and the rebels had no training. After stationing here, they could just capture them when the dispersed Han thieves fled here. And..." The envoy handed them to Zong Ze a memorial.
"Your Majesty's oral order: Li Gang, Zhong Shaobao, Zong Ze study it, and then write a new charter. Choose a calm and steady general, and then choose a young and promising young talent, and hand it over together."
"Oh?" What did this new emperor do at this critical moment? Zong Ze opened the letter of "Ten Strategy of Chen An Border". Zhong Shaobao and Li Gang had already studied it. They wrote several large pieces of paper, full of words.
Especially the words of Master Zhong reveal anxiety, a feeling that people are about to die and their words are good, and birds are about to die and their songs are sad, vividly appearing on the paper.
He tried his best to advise the new emperor to build the defense of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun and other places, and to state the interests, and even the defense maps of Yanjing and Shanhaiguan were drawn. It seems that it has been more than a day or two for Zhong Shidao to consider the defense of the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun.
He himself didn't have much insight. Based on Zhong Shidao and Li Gang, he made some suggestions on logistics, including establishing military weapons supervisors in Youzhou, Yanjing Prefecture, and Shanhaiguan as mutual support.
He hesitated and wrote down his opinions on the Ma Zheng in Youzhou. The Ma Zheng in the Song Dynasty was so bad that it was so bad that the Sixteen Prefectures in Yanyun were a new land, so he could naturally start from a new beginning.
And I wrote a little bit of my own thoughts, but I don’t know if it’s right or wrong.
[The Song army had few horses. When fighting against the enemy in the field, there were many inconveniences. They were often dispersed by enemy cavalry and were unfavorable in the field. Imitate the chariots during the Warring States Period and draw a picture of the chariot, which was called "Decisive Victory." It depends on the clever intention of decisive victory. It is a joke to make a joke.]
[The custom of pickled ham is often used in Jinhua. After being improved by the minister, it has been preserved for a longer time. It can be used as military rations to supplement the sergeant meat. It is convenient and quick to eat a recipe. Please decide whether to buy it.]
"Wuron, bring this memorial and these three annotations to Bianjing City." After Zong Ze finished writing, he called a gentle scholar in and handed the letter to the young man.
"Goro, have you settled down at home? This is your third time joining the army." The young man in front of him is more like a scholar than a martial artist. He is handsome, well-read, and is full of poetry and writing. He is dazzling, but this person prefers military affairs.
This was his third time in the army.
The young man said: "This time I joined the army with my younger brother, so naturally I got the consent of my mother and everything in the family was settled. The country was in a turbulent state. It was not a time to talk about my children's love."
"It's good to have such insights. But a small Bingyilang is still talented. It's not an exaggeration to be wise, brave and talented. This time, the official recruited good generals to guard Yanjing Prefecture and seeking Shanhaiguan in Yingzhou. I recommend you." Zong Ze waved his hand and asked Wulang to go and deliver the letter.
In the three-day heavy snow weather, the prickling eyes hurt in the sun. When Wanyan Zong saw the front army escape the Yellow River, it was already noon. The Jin soldiers were stationed south of the Yellow River, waiting for the rear army to cross the river safely.
What surprised Wanyan Zongwang was that when they crossed the river, the soldiers of the Song Dynasty did not take advantage of their crossing to harassment. The military camp of the Western Army of the Song Dynasty was also very quiet, with only some patrol guards.
Even with only some patrolling guards, Wanyan Zongwang could still see that this army was different from all the troops he had encountered before, and its strength was completely beyond the imperial guards he had encountered in the past.
"Send the order, the enemy may attack the camp tonight. Be fully prepared." Wanyan Zongwang ordered that the quiet Western army looked so strange, and the enemy's chances of attacking at night were very high, but now they have just been stationed, so it would be better not to fight if there is no need. If the enemy attacks at night, the Jin people are experts in night battles, how could they lose to the Song people?
...
At dawn, the sound of the night crows chirping was particularly annoying! Wanyan Zongwang indeed heard the sound of shouting and beating and killing, it seemed that it was a night attack!
He was sleeping in his armor, and when he heard the movement, he suddenly stood up, rushed out of the tent, stood on the observation deck, observed the situation of the enemy, and when the sound of shouting and killing was just as loud as before, the entire Jin soldiers were revived, and neatly dressed Jin soldiers ran out of the tents.
The Jin soldiers held a pale knife in their hands and bows and arrows on their backs. They quickly found the horses and prepared to deal with the enemy troops attacking the camp.
During the night battle, the Jin soldiers were very good at it. Their eyes were more clearly seen than those of the Song people at night!
Among their opponents, we have not yet encountered an opponent at night!
Just as they were about to respond to the enemy, they found that the target of the night attack was not the direction of the Jin soldiers' main tent, but towards the Han thief army!
There was the place where the Song people who surrendered to the Jin Dynasty were. These night-attacked troops did not shout at the beating or killing, but shouted loudly: "Your Majesty's amnesty! Escape without killing!"
The reason why Zhong Shidao agreed to Zhao Heng's suggestion and night attack was to disperse the Han people who had descended from Jin!
They will be the vanguard of the siege and will also consume a large number of elite soldiers of the Western Army. The best way to disperse them while they were stationed and people were not yet determined!
Wanyan Zongwang was a little worried. The military discipline of the Han thief army was disbanded and he didn't know how the battle was. Instead, he reminded Guo Yaoshi to be alert, and he didn't know if Guo Yaoshi had taken it to heart.
Chapter completed!
