0193 Wanyan Zonghan who escaped

Wanyan Ling and Wanyan Feng's surrender undoubtedly gave Xia Bolong a reassurance. In the current Dragon Empire, the three armies of three routes attacked the Dading Prefecture under the command of Han Shizhong. The newly succeeded left marshal Wanyan Loushi was forced to break through and flee north to Linhuang Prefecture.

Han Shizhong did not stop and responded quickly, ordering Zhang Jun and Li Liangfu to lead troops east to attack Liaoyang Prefecture, while he himself led his army to pursue Wanyan Loushi and attack Linhuang Prefecture. In this way, the Long Army formed a siege, like a pair of pliers, forming a siege to encircle Ning Prefecture, the Great Jin Dynasty.

The Jin army first failed in the northwest, and more than 300,000 elite troops were exhausted. Then they mistakenly focused on defending the Song army, causing more than 200,000 soldiers to gather on the Yanjing line, leaving only more than 100,000 soldiers on the territory of the Great Jin outside the Great Wall. In addition, the foundation of the former land of the Liao Kingdom that had just been occupied was not stable, and the impact of the Dragon Empire caused civil rebellion. Many old ministers of the Liao Kingdom rose up and responded at the call of Yelu Dashi, the prime minister of the Dragon Empire. The glorious Dajin Kingdom was already full of holes. Except for the former land of the Jurchens with a deep foundation, all the rest were lost.

Just when the Jin army outside the Great Wall was fighting hard with the army of the Dragon Empire, Wanyan Zonghan, the right-wing marshal guarding the Yanjing area, was also besieged by hundreds of thousands of Song troops. After more than a month of hard fighting, Wanyan Zonghan was forced to withdraw from Yanjing and led more than 20,000 remaining troops to flee east.

The Spring Festival in 1129 was different. The entire northern land was filled with severe smell of gunpowder. On New Year's Eve, Xia Bolong and his subordinates stayed in the small Yuguan City. He did not occupy Lulong, Funing, Qian'an, Changli and other places, but chose to stick to Yuguan City. Because he knew that even if he occupied it, it would be returned to the Song Dynasty. Moreover, if Wanyan Zonghan wanted to retreat, this was the only way to go.

Ancient wars did have their drawbacks, that is, the message was not transmitted very quickly and could not be commanded remotely. This is also the difference between ancient wars and modern information wars. For Xia Bolong, this time it was very beneficial because he intercepted Wanyan Zonghan's letters sent from Yanjing City to Huining Mansion, and bought the messengers who delivered the letters, so that they could pass on the message to themselves, telling Wanyan Zonghan that there were tens of thousands of Jin troops in Yuguan City, which could withstand the attack of the Song army and respond to Wanyan Zonghan.

On the first day of the first lunar month, there was no trace of New Year atmosphere throughout the New Year. Yuguan City was very small and tens of thousands of soldiers could not let go. Xia Bolong could only let his troops stationed in the east of Yuguan City to reduce the crowding of soldiers.

In the breeze, the flag of the Jin Kingdom was still flying on the city of Yuguan. Xia Bolong stood on the city tower and looked at the vast wilderness of snow in front of the pass, but felt a sense of melancholy in his heart. In front of the pass, it was about to become the territory of the Song Dynasty, and behind the pass was the Dragon Empire. This small Yuguan became a watershed between the two great powers.

"His Majesty!"

A loud voice came from behind Xia Bolong. He didn't look back. He knew who it was when he heard the voice, and immediately said lightly: "Are you here?"

"As soon as I received the order from Your Majesty, I rushed over. Your Majesty is so urgent to summon me. Is there any important order?" The person who spoke was Wanyan Ling. He lowered his head and clasped his fists, and said humbly.

Xia Bolong nodded and said, "I promised you to rescue Wanyan Zonghan. I just received a report that Wanyan Zonghan fled from Yanjing and had arrived in Yuyang, but he was still following the Yue family army. You also know that I have signed a covenant with the Song Dynasty and cannot be rescued as the Dragon Empire. Therefore, I am going to let you and Wanyan Feng go. You will take your old subordinates to talk about Wanyan Zonghan’s rescue here, and leave the matter to me to do the next thing."

Wanyan Ling immediately thanked him and said, "I obey the order, thank you for your kindness!"

"Well, go, leave now, and join Wanyan Feng to rescue Wanyan Zonghan and save him here. I will not make things difficult for him. If he is willing to surrender, he will surrender. If he refuses to surrender, he will let him go back to Huining Mansion. Yue's army is really powerful. You should not fight to avoid being entangled by him." Xia Bolong said.

Wanyan Ling said: "I understand that I and Wanyan Feng can only bring three thousand light cavalry. After rescued Wanyan Zonghan, he will return immediately."

"Well, don't let Wanyan Zonghan know that Yuguan City has been occupied by the Dragon Empire. I'm afraid he won't accept it for the time being, so he will seek a short opinion!" Xia Bolong said.

Wanyan Ling said: "I understand, I will leave!"

After saying that, Wanyan Ling turned around and got off the city wall. He went to the barracks to order three thousand light cavalry and left Yuguan City with Wanyan Feng and rushed westward.

Xia Bolong stood on the city tower, looked at Wanyan Feng, Wanyan Ling left, and said to himself: "I hope Wanyan Zonghan can arrive smoothly and conquered these Jurchens will be of great benefit to the development of my Dragon Empire."

Liu Chengzong walked up from under the city tower, came to Xia Bolong, and said, "Your Majesty! The General is urgently reporting!"

Xia Bolong immediately opened the letter, and after browsing it roughly, he laughed and said, "Han Shizhong is indeed a handsome man. Unexpectedly, in just one month, he conquered the two mansions first, and now he has conquered the Linhuang mansion. It seems that the Jin Kingdom will be destroyed in less than two months! What about Liu Chengzong, Zhang Jun, and Li Liangfu?"

"The two generals encountered the tenacious resistance of the Jin soldiers in Liaoyang. Due to the lack of ammunition, the siege of the city was not captured for seven days. However, the two generals had sent people to send news that they would definitely conquer the Liaoyang Prefecture within ten days." Liu Chengzong replied.

Xia Bolong said: "There are too many troops in Yuguan City. Liu Chengzong, you can quickly lead 20,000 troops to Liaoyang for support and take 5,000 Long Guards away. The long-term battle is not good. Our army's food supply is difficult. It will take as soon as one month to transport grain from Xingqing Prefecture. You should take this opportunity to destroy the Jin Dynasty in one go. You can quickly send an order to let Han Shizhong rest for half a month, and then attack Huining Prefecture. When spring is in full bloom, I will see that the territory of the Jin Dynasty is full of the banner of the Dragon Empire!"

"I obey the order! But, I am leaving, what should Your Majesty do?" Liu Chengzong said.

Xia Bolong said: "Don't worry, I have a revolver in my hand, and no one can get close to me, let alone I have left behind the three thousand dragon guards, which is enough!"

"Then...then I'll go support Liaoyang!"

"Go!"

———————————————————

In Yuyang City, Wanyan Zonghan, who escaped from Yanjing's remnants, was physically and mentally exhausted. As soon as he sat on the seat of Yuyang City Government, he saw a scout rushed in.

"Marson! Yue Family Army... Yue Family Army is less than twenty miles away. Please ask Marshal... Marshal to make a decision quickly!"

Wanyan Zonghan no longer had that kind of surprise expression. From the fierce battle in the northwest to the defense of Yanjing, he had completely seen the power of the Yue family army. In addition, most of his generals were killed in battle. He had already feared the three words Yue family army and sighed, hating why his country did not have such an outstanding army.

He waved his hand, took a breath, and said, "Go down, I will pass on my order, the whole army will gather and prepare to go to Pingzhou, where there are tens of thousands of troops from Wanyan Feng, so you can temporarily avoid Yue Fei's sharpness."

The scout responded and retreated.

Wanyan Zonghan looked at the deserted hall. In order to protect him from breaking through, the generals who risked their lives to the palace, all died in battle. Now he is the only one left, but he is really alone!

"Oh!" Wanyan Zonghan sighed heavily and said, "I didn't expect that my Great Vajra had reached the point of destruction just over ten years. I was fighting the Song army in the pass, and I don't know what the situation outside the pass. The army of the Dragon Empire is also very strong. I hope that the ancestors and ancestors will bless Dajin to win consecutive battles outside the pass!"

He was the eldest son of the Jin royal family, Sagai. Compared with Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Zongbi, he was much inferior. However, when Wanyan Zongwang was captured and Wanyan Zongbi died in battle, he became the leading figure in the Great Jin Dynasty. If it weren't for him, the Hebei areas might have fallen into the hands of the Song people a few months ago.

He put on his helmet, sorted out the armor he wore, took out the shelf a marshal should have, walked out of the hall with a swagger, and came to the barracks in the city. He walked up to the general platform and saw those soldiers exhausted to survive. He wondered why the country he had been struggling to loyal to would reach its present level. Perhaps, he would never know in his life that the cause of all this was just because of a person, a person who did not belong to this era, his name was Xia Bolong.

Indeed, when Xia Bolong came to this world and was forced to embark on the road to hegemony, the Western Liao, which replaced Yelu Dashi, prepared troops and included the entire Western Regions in its territory. When the Jin army launched a large-scale attack on Xixia, this person was the other person who took the initiative to contact Xixia, the Song Dynasty, and the three armies to form an alliance, and fought fiercely in the northwest, which prompted the Jin Kingdom, which was once more prosperous, to decline quickly.

He sighed heavily, used all his strength, raised his hand high, waved forward, and shouted loudly: "Retreat!"

Wanyan Zonghan took the soldiers who had just arrived. Before he could rest for a while, he embarked on the road of escape again, coming and going in a hurry, leaving behind the people who could not take away Yuyang City, those who hated the Jin soldiers but were powerless.

Not long after the Jin soldiers left, Yue Fei led the Yue family army to chase after him. Niu Gao on the left and Yang Zaixing on the right. The generals of the Yue family army were arranged in sequence behind.

"Master Marshal, Yuyang City is ahead. Depending on the situation, it seems that Wanyan Zonghan has just arrived. Have you entered the city?" Niu Gao asked, pointing to Yuyang City in front.

Yue Fei said: "No, you should pursue Wanyan Zonghan directly. There is no need to disturb the people of Yuyang City. Send someone to order Shi Quan of the Later Army to lead troops into the city to appease the people. Wanyan Zonghan is a great enemy, so you can't let him run away, so chase me!"

After saying that, Yue Fei quickly chased out with the five thousand cavalry in the front of the Yue family army.

Wanyan Zonghan led the remaining troops to retreat eastward, with cavalry in front and infantry behind, and ran quickly for a while. When he looked back, he felt that his troops were getting fewer and fewer, and he didn't care about so many at this moment, and he could take away as much as he could.

In the evening, Wanyan Zonghan's 20,000 remaining troops were only 6,000 cavalry riding horses. The infantry had long been left behind, waiting for them, either surrender or were killed.

"Stop!" Wanyan Zonghan held his seat and dismounted, shouting loudly, "I have been running for a day, so I will rest first. People are not tired, and horses are tired too."

So, six thousand cavalry dismounted and took advantage of the dim sky to hide behind a small hillside. They did not dare to make fire, for fear that the fire would attract the attention of the Yue family army.

Shortly after everyone sat down, they heard a mess of horse hooves and ran over quickly from the front. The sound was getting closer and closer, which shocked everyone: "Can the Yue family army surrounded them?"

"The whole army is on the horse and ready to fight!" Wanyan Zonghan immediately turned over and responded quickly!

Six thousand cavalry rode on horseback almost at the same time, holding cold weapons in their cold hands, but a trace of despair was revealed in their eyes.

At this moment, a scout ran over, with joy on his face, and came to Wanyan Zonghan, and immediately reported: "The Marshal is his own person, the soldiers of Wanyan Feng in Pingzhou, and Wanyan Ling."

Wanyan Zonghan was very happy on his face. As soon as the scout finished his words, he heard Wanyan Feng. Wanyan Ling led three thousand cavalry to run over and shouted loudly: "Marson! Marshal!"

Wanyan Zonghan was very happy and rode a horse to meet him. Seeing Wanyan Feng, Wanyan Ling hurriedly asked, "Why are you here?"

Wanyan Ling said: "When my brothers heard that the marshal broke out, they hurriedly brought the light cavalry to pick up the marshal. Marshal, please follow the future. There are thousands of horses there. Please ask the marshal to quickly change the horses and retreat to Yu Pass!"

"Okay! You came in time!" Wanyan Zonghan said.

After the order was issued, the remaining 6,000 people of Wanyan Zonghan transferred to Wanyan Ling. The horses brought by Wanyan Feng followed Wanyan Feng, and Wanyan Ling and the other two rushed to Yuguan without stopping.

Yue Fei was chasing behind. When he led his troops to pursue the road for a long time, he suddenly found thousands of war horses behind a hillside. He immediately knew what was going on. Looking back at the overworked soldiers, he ordered to stop and said, "The whole army rested on the spot. It seems that he can't catch Wanyan Zonghan this time!"

"Master Marshal, can you just forget it?" Niu Gao asked.

Yue Fei said: "Wanyan Zonghan has someone to pick him up and transferred to the war horses. Our army went deep into the ground and chased him here is already the limit. There are still tens of thousands of troops from Wanyan Feng in Pingzhou, so you can't make a quick move. You can follow me to the nearby village to rest, wait for reinforcements, and then advance in large quantities!"

So Yue Fei led the Yue Family Army to find a village nearby. When the villagers heard that it was Yue Fei's Yue Family Army, they were very happy, and the Yue Family Army lived in the village.

Wanyan Ling, Wanyan Feng, with Wanyan Zonghan and nine thousand soldiers, walked forward without stopping, stopping and stopping. After two days, he finally arrived at Yuguan.
