Fragrance Stealer

In the next few days, Guo Jing went all the way to the south, fighting and walking. Although he had the most elite cavalry under his command, there was no shortage of cavalry on the Jin Kingdom. Amazing operation, but still couldn't get rid of the pursuers, and was trapped in a valley after a few days.

After days of hard fighting, many soldiers were injured by arrows, so Guo Jing ordered: the three wounded should rest on horseback, the two wounded should take care of the seriously injured, and the one wounded should continue to fight.

As night fell, the Jin and Song Dynasties set up their camps tacitly. No matter if they were fugitives or pursuers, no one was an iron man, and everyone needed to rest. Looking at the Jin camp not far away, Guo Jing summoned the soldiers and said, "Our army's morale is not as good as before. I can’t drum up again, what’s the reason? Could it be that there are women in the army?”

A group of people looked at each other in blank dismay. It turned out that they attacked Xuzhou before and robbed many wives and daughters of Xuzhou defenders. Because they were worried that they would be punished by Guo Jing, they secretly mixed those women into the army in disguise. Fortunately, they robbed a lot of gold soldiers in Xuzhou. Horses, otherwise I am afraid that there will not be enough horses if there are too many people.

But Guo Jing is not a fool, at the beginning he was concerned about the battle situation in Suzhou, and indeed ignored the behavior of his subordinates. He has been staying together these days, how could he not know that there are more women in the team?After quietly inquiring, I learned that it was the golden wife and daughter who were robbed by the soldiers.

Guo Jing has always been an upright person. The reason why he left Mongolia to help the Southern Song Dynasty was because of the brutality of the Mongols. Wherever they passed, blood flowed like rivers. Countless wives and daughters trembled under their claws. Unexpectedly, a similar situation appeared in the Southern Song Dynasty .

It's a pity that this cavalry unit has a short life under his command. If the troops trained by him in Xiangyang City dare to do such a thing, he will definitely order military law to deal with it. Now that a group of people are in danger, if they are killed because of this Those who commit crimes may cause soldiers to collapse

"The golden people went south, ravaging the wives and daughters of the common people in the Song Dynasty, even the princess" was questioned by Guo Jing, a soldier who had always been bold, said indignantly, but he immediately realized that he had committed a taboo, after all, during the Jingkang crisis, The royal concubine, the princess, ordered his wife to be taken captive to Huanyiyuan. This incident was a shame to all Song people, so he immediately changed his tune, "We just call it the way of the other and return it to the other."

"Yes!"

"that is!"

A group of soldiers agreed one after another, and Guo Jing secretly sighed when he saw the excited crowd: Is this human nature?

"Golden people are beasts, should we become beasts like them?" Although Guo Jing understood what these people did, he definitely could not agree, pointing to those women in the army who looked scared and timid, and said, "What's more, you guys Look at the robbed women, how many of them are serious Jurchens? Aren’t they also our Han compatriots?”

"Whoever asked them to marry a Jin man deserves it." Someone muttered.

Guo Jing was furious in an instant: "The Jin people are cruel, how can women like them resist? We Han men can't protect the women in our clan, but in the end we blame the women for their disobedience. What's the reason?"

Neo-Confucianism prevailed in the Southern Song Dynasty, that is, after Jingkang’s sorrow, he began to pay attention to women’s chastity abnormally. Guo Jing grew up in Mongolia, so he was naturally very dissatisfied with this atmosphere.

Guo Jing has always been powerful, and a group of people were intimidated by his aura and dared not say anything. Guo Jing took advantage of the situation and said: "Back then, Li Ling's army went deep alone and was besieged by the Huns. In the car, after Li Ling found out about this, he searched them out and killed them, and fought again the next day, the soldiers really focused on nothing else, and their fighting power increased greatly, do you think I should kill these women?"

Hearing his words, the women who had been robbed were so frightened that they collapsed and began to cry. A group of soldiers even looked at each other in blank dismay. Guo Jing was always a benevolent person, why was he so cruel this time?However, as the saying goes, kindness does not control soldiers, this approach is not incomprehensible to them.

"However," Guo Jing changed the subject, "These women are also pitiful people. Coupled with the kindness of a couple for a day, I don't want you to make things difficult, so I will let them live and expel them from the barracks immediately. Forget about it, from now on, anyone who takes in a woman to influence the morale of the army will be killed without mercy!"

A group of soldiers thought they would be punished for this incident, but now they see the big stick raised high and then lowered lightly, how could they not be overjoyed?They don't have any feelings for these women, they just satisfy their physical needs. Now that they have had enough fun and addiction these days, and the people of Jin Kingdom are chasing after them, the shadow of death has always shrouded their hearts, and no one I can recall that feeling.

"Leave them here, we'll leave overnight!" Guo Jing suddenly ordered.

Chapter 1651

Everyone was stunned for a moment, but soon realized that they were using these women to block the Jinren's pace and buy time for their group to escape. Thinking of the possibility of escaping, they couldn't help but smile.

If these were ordinary Han women, Guo Jing would never have issued such an order, maybe with his benevolent character he would have brought these women all the way back to the south, but these Han women are already the wives and daughters of soldiers from the Kingdom of Jin, so it is inconvenient Take them away, and if you stay, you don't have to worry about being ruined by these wolf-like golden soldiers, after all, they are the wives and daughters of colleagues.

Song Qingshu was hesitating how to save Guo Jing, when suddenly a whistle sounded from the barracks, noticing the change in the Song barracks, the high-ranking officers of the Jin Kingdom gathered urgently, servant San Zhongyi looked towards the direction of the valley, his expression changed: "Not good , They are going to escape overnight!" After speaking, there was no time to explain to Tang Kuo, so he hurriedly dispatched troops and led people to chase after him.

Song Qingshu and Dai Qisi looked at each other, and hurriedly got on their horses to follow. When they arrived at the Song Army camp, they found that there were bustling people inside, and hurriedly called servant Zhongyi to inquire.

"Don't mention it, they are all the wives and daughters of Xuzhou soldiers." Pu San Zhongyi snorted resentfully, "Before they were captured by the Song people, now they are deliberately abandoned here to delay our pace."

As he said that, he suddenly sneered a few times: "I heard the rumors in the world, what kind of hero, I'll bah!"

Song Qingshu frowned, and understood the other party's anger very well. After all, anyone who knew that their compatriots' wives and daughters were insulted by the enemy would also be furious, but the only thing he didn't understand was that Guo Jing was obviously not that kind of person, but the people in front of him Women are the facts again.

Servant Loyalty. After explaining a few words, he hastily left and started to deal with the heap of distressed matters. After all, these women are the family members of the soldiers in the army. If they are not properly arranged, it may make people chilling.

"This is really immortal." Dai Qisi whispered close to Song Qingshu.

"Yeah, I can only hope that they can take advantage of this time to escape." Song Qingshu smiled wryly. Guo Jing's move is a double-edged sword. The hatred of the Jinren soldiers, if it was said that the high-level officials like Pu San Zhong Yi wanted to win Guo Jing and then quickly, now all the Jin soldiers wanted his life.

Pu San Zhongyi finally sorted out the messy scene, leaving a special troop to protect and resettle these women, and then hurriedly led the troop to continue chasing south.

Now, after all, it is within the territory of the Kingdom of Jin. Although the servants and loyal troops are not as flexible as Guo Jing's, he can mobilize the forces of the states and counties along the way to stop the opponent. Therefore, although Guo Jing bought time through some female relatives, he still couldn't shake off the pursuers. .

But Guo Jing wasn't very worried, because as long as they got to Lingbi, there would be Chen Xiaoqing's broken army there.The soldiers under his command also looked excited. After all, they played around with the Jin people along the way, and they enjoyed the wives and daughters of the soldiers of the Jin army. They were proud enough to be oppressed by the Jin people for a long time.

When they faintly saw the Lingbi city wall, they were about to cheer, but Guo Jing's face suddenly changed, because he noticed that the secret flag was not erected on the top of the city as agreed, and hurriedly raised his hand to stop the troops.

"What's the matter, Commander Guo?" The soldiers under his command asked inexplicably, after all, everyone became impatient as they were about to go home soon.

"Something's wrong." Guo Jing told everyone what he had discovered, and the soldiers also realized the danger.

"No way, Chen Xiaoqing, the doctor of martial arts, led the army to break up here. It's only been a few days, how could it fall so quickly?" a member of the general said in disbelief.

"It can't be said for sure. The [-] troops under the city of Suzhou will be destroyed in an instant." Another lieutenant general snorted coldly, obviously very angry at Li Ruyi's defeat, not to mention that it directly put them in danger .

"It's different," Guo Jing said, shaking his head, "General Li is attacking. Although he doesn't want to admit it, the court has never been good at attacking; General Chen is defending in Lingbi. The court soldiers are best at defending. It is impossible for Jin Bing to be so fast. can be taken down, unless"

"Unless what?" the soldier next to him asked anxiously.

Guo Jing thought of Song Qingshu's warning before, and couldn't help but have a guess in his heart, unless Chen Xiaoqing didn't stay behind as agreed, but withdrew his troops early.

"You guys wait here for a moment, don't get off the saddle, stand by at any time, I'll go over and see the situation first." Guo Jing didn't express his guesses in his heart, worried that these people would break their morale when they found out that they had been abandoned.

Although he didn't say anything, there was still a shadow in the hearts of the group of people, and they all looked at his past figure solemnly.

Guo Jing rode his horse to the bottom of the city gate, summoned up his true energy and said, "Is General Chen there?"

The soldiers at the top of the city came out: "Is the one below Commander Guo?"

Guo Jing's heart trembled, and he asked in a deep voice, "Where is Chen Xiaoqing, General Chen?"

"The general is resting in the city," the soldier replied casually, "I'll let them open the city gate and let the general in."

Looking at the city gate that was slowly opening, Guo Jing didn't go in, but stood there meditating, and suddenly asked, "Where's General Wu who is guarding the gate, why didn't you see him?"

The soldier was startled, and subconsciously replied: "General Wu is patrolling nearby, I'll call him over right away."

Who knew that Guo Jing's complexion changed drastically, he hurriedly rode back, and gestured to his subordinates as he ran back, signaling to run away quickly!

Although Guo Jing has always been famous for being dull, he is not stupid, otherwise he would not have practiced such profound martial arts, especially on the battlefield. He has an intuition beyond ordinary people. He was keenly aware of something wrong before, so he deliberately spoke out to test a bit.

It is indeed possible for Chen Xiaoqing to stay in the city to rest, but the city gate is the most important thing, and the most trusted generals will definitely be sent to guard it, and he has met all the trusted generals around Chen Xiaoqing, and there is no General Wu at all.Not to mention that Chen Xiaoqing is not around, even in this military operation there is no general surnamed Wu!

Because Wu Xi's attitude in Sichuan was abnormal, in order to avoid affecting Jianghuai, none of the generals surnamed Wu were brought along!

He just tried this on purpose. If the other party was really Song Jun, he would naturally give the correct answer, but the other party followed his words and said a general that didn't exist!

This proved that the people in the city were not the Song army, but the Jin people in disguise. They naturally didn't know that there were no generals surnamed Wu in the Northern Expedition this time, and their posture was probably trying to trick themselves into the city to catch a turtle.

The fugitives along the way had long regarded Guo Jing as a god, and although they were puzzled when they saw him warning, they subconsciously began to retreat. When Guo Jing caught up, all the soldiers were about to ask what happened, when the gate of Lingbi City opened wide and rushed inside. There was a group of troops, and they were the cavalry of the Kingdom of Jin. In this way, there is no need to explain anything!

Servant Zhongyi. Explain, what the hell is this Yi. Jie? Why is it a sensitive word?

Chapter 1652 Fighting fire with fire

"That bastard Chen Xiaoqing abandoned us!" They all survived the battlefield of blood and fire, no one is a fool, and someone quickly realized it.
