Chapter 403 Bombed the camp again?

But even if you have a good impression of Zhao Gou, when the Yan King's Army marched south in a large scale, Yao Gu, Yao Youzhong and Liu Yanqing, Liu Guangshi and Liu Wei, Liu Ziyu and Zhang Shuye would not be able to sit still and watch Yan King's Army march straight into Bianliang City.

However, they tried their best to stop the Yan King's Army from moving south.

It is obvious that there is an absolute advantage in military strength, but once the thunder sounds, it will be defeated immediately.

These Song soldiers were very powerless, and they were as unscrupulous as dead girls.

Yao Gu didn't blame them, because even after hearing the treatment of the soldiers of the Yan King's Army, their father and son had no intention of serving the official in Bianliang City.

From five years of tax exemption to military merit fields, from military merit fields to rent reduction and tax reduction policies for military martyrs’ families.

With the treatment of the Yan King's Army as a comparison, the Song army in the south did not turn against each other at the last minute, so it would be worthy of the Zhao Guan family.

The night was getting dark, and the dark night sky seemed deeper against the complex mood of Yao Gu and Zhang Shuye, the two Song court military and political officials, especially Zhang Shuye, who was a literati and was even more lonely and desolate at this moment. A few stars were beating in the distant horizon, and the sky was as dark as if it was painted ink.

An extremely sharp question was placed in front of the two of them. How to fight tomorrow?

The Yan King's Army had already crossed the Yellow River and rushed into Huazhou City. It was about to enter Kaifeng Prefecture. They still held a small 100,000 people in their hands, but how should they fight this battle? There is no way to fight.

"The morale of the army is very bad, and there is no trace of fighting spirit. If the King of Yan attacks with all his strength, I am afraid that I will not be able to hold on for a day."

If the army has no fighting spirit and no fighting spirit, the gods will not win this battle even if they come.

Yao Gu's words are very straightforward because he knew that Zhang Shuye was not the kind of self-deception who likes to cover up his ears and steal bells.

Sure enough, Zhang Shuye was not angry at all. After hearing Yao Gu's words, he just shook his head sadly.

"Maybe seven or eight out of the ten people in the army were hoping to rebel against the King of Yan and gain a military merit."

King Yan took over the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun and swept away Hedong, Hebei. He had more than tens of millions of acres of fertile land, and even shouted to Liaodong and Dangxiang for killing, and the results of the battle will only be greater in the future. Such a ten-acre military field for one person was not under any pressure for him. But the temptation of this on the Song army soldiers was beyond words!

Zhao Song was not stingy with military soldiers. Although he didn't get much copper, even if the fourth army had only 1,000 yuan per month, it only had 1,700 yuan per month. But in addition to the "Lu Ge", it also included one stone and seven dou to two stones of monthly grain (either the upper, middle and lower the army), and the number of silk, cotton and cloth for spring and winter clothes was also different. For example, each of the six armies including Hebei and Hedong had two pieces of silk, half a piece of cloth, and one thousand pieces of cotton. The winter clothes were two pieces of silk, half a piece of cloth, one thousand pieces of cotton, and twelve taels of cotton.

In addition, there are rewards from time to time, such as the emperor's birthday, the prince's marriage, etc.

According to statistics, the annual cost of an imperial guard can be generally considered to be about fifty knots.

This is not a small number.

If the cost of this number can truly fall into the hands of the soldiers, the combat effectiveness of the Song army will not be so poor.

What's more, even so, the treatment is far from comparable to military merit.

The latter starts with ten acres of land. With the long service time and the contributions made, under the publicity of the newspaper, many people seem to feel that they can easily get thirty or twenty acres, and this is still the kind of person who just live a mediocre life.

This is very attractive to the Song people.

You should know that during the Zhao and Song dynasties, the government divided the households into five levels based on taxes, land and family wealth accumulation.

The first class here is Zhujiazhuang, a local tyrant like Hujiazhuang, the second class is a small landlord, and the third class is a self-cultivated farmer with thirty or fifty acres of land, which is also considered a rich farmer.

The fourth-class households occupy the vast majority of the population are semi-self-cultivated farmers and tenants. The division of highland is based on how many acres of their own land still exist in the hands of the households.

Each person can get dozens of acres of land, tax exemptions, and even military soldiers can get official land when they settle in Yandi. This is definitely the third-class portal. It will be strange if the attractiveness to military soldiers is less!

More importantly, Zhao Gou is not an outsider either.

Not only was the prince of Zhao Song, but also a prince who made great contributions. Under such a background, the Song army would only have ghosts if they were determined to resist!

When the Yan King's Army headed south, it was a totally devastating parade.

When Zhao Gou was the emperor in power, the return of his soldiers was already a kind of "everyone wished for".

As the commander of the Song army, Yao Gu and Zhang Shuye were both so depressed that they were so depressed. You can imagine how the fighting spirit of the entire Song army should be.

In the middle of the night, Zhao Gou was suddenly woken up by Kang Lu, but it was the Song army camp.

"King, the two generals Yue Han have led their troops to chase and kill them."

Zhao Gou's sleepiness disappeared in an instant, "Is it bombed again?"

Regarding Yue Fei and Han Shizhong led the horse army to attack, he was not surprised at all. Instead, he felt amused and laughed at the Song army's bombing camp, "How many times has this been?" It's really embarrassing.

It was dawn, and Yao Gu held the horse and looked behind him. Only a few five or seven hundred personal guards followed him, each of them gasping heavily, all of whom were exhausted.

"Father!"

Yao Youzhong's face was muddy. He had heard that Liu Yanqing had a large bombing camp of 100,000 troops in Yan land at one time, and was chased by some of the defeated soldiers who escaped from the Jurchens by the Liao people and killed them all the way to the Jiehe River. He also heard that Zhe Yanzhi and Li Hui had a large explosion of 120,000 troops on the south bank of the Yellow River, so that the Jin people crossed the Yellow River without any effort and rushed straight to the city of Bianjing.

But I didn't expect that the legendary unlucky thing like the bombing camp would one day fall on him.

This is called how could he be willing to accept it with a high opinion of himself? The blow was too big. Even though he had convinced himself to retreat in front of the thunder, Yao Youzhong still could not accept the bombing of the camp.

This is the biggest insult to a soldier and a general.

"Don't be a little daughter. The morale of the Southern Army is low and its fighting spirit is dissipated. You don't know. If you have today's mistakes, seven parts of the crime are in the overall situation, and three parts of the crime are ineffective for your father and Zhang Xianggong. What does it have to do with you?"

Yao Guren was a mature man and could not see Yao Youzhong's attitude. But he knew that his son had always been arrogant and had always been active with Ping Zhong earlier. Because Yao Ping Zhong (son of Yao Gu's brother Yao Xiong) was a few years older, he debuted earlier and had extraordinary qualifications. He was recognized by the veterans of the Western Army one earlier and was recommended by all the heroes of Guanzhong, and was called "Little Taiwei". He was simply blocked by him (Yao Youzhong).

But in the last battle to defend Tokyo City, Yao Pingzhong lost his lord, and also threw the reputation of the Yao family into the mud and allowed others to trample on it. (Yao Pingzhong strongly advocated going out of the city to attack the Jin people, but failed the sneak attack. He had no face to return to Bianliang and ran away directly.) In the Second Battle of Bianliang, Yao Youzhong was always at the forefront, dared to fight and fought, and repeatedly defeated the Jin people. He performed well and was outstanding. He could be said to be the humerus of the Song army defending the city.

It was difficult to restore the Yao family's reputation in the army. This bombing camp must be another big stain in his eyes.
