One Piece of Song Dynasty

At this time, Jin Wushu was camping twenty miles away from Xinzhou. After Salihe left Shiling Pass, he also came here to join Jin Wushu. This place was still more than two hundred miles away from Daizhou. Jin Wushu planned to use It took two to two and a half days to arrive at Daizhou. Wanyan Zongxian, who was stationed in Xinzhou, also led his troops to withdraw to Daizhou in advance on the same day that Jin Wushu withdrew. It was also on the th that Yue Fei's troops defeated Huailai and Preparing to march to Xuande Mansion, not only that, Yue Fei also captured the enemy general Guo Qizhong.

After learning that Guo Qizhong was a descendant of the famous Tang general Guo Ziyi, Yue Fei personally received Guo Qizhong: "General Guo, I am Yue Fei, the commander-in-chief of this army."

Guo Qizhong cupped his hands and said, "I have met General Yue."

Yue Fei signaled: "General Guo, please take a seat."

Guo Qizhong looked unkind and said: "No need, General Yue, I will not surrender."

Yue Fei smiled and said: "Haha, General Guo, may I ask who you are?"

Guo Qizhong's eyes flashed and he said, "Of course he is a Han Chinese."

Yue Fei nodded and said: "Even if we are Han people, why should we serve foreigners? I think General Guo should know that since the Qin and Han Dynasties, our Han nation has been fighting with the northern foreigners for thousands of years, and it has not ended yet."

Guo Qizhong sneered and said: "Of course I know this. Do you think that someone doesn't want to serve our Han court? You, General Yue, don't even look at what the Zhao and Song court is like. Has the Song Dynasty ever regained Yanyun since the founding of the country? You need to know Yanyun It is also the place where the ancestors of our Han people have lived for generations. The Song Dynasty court itself was unable to regain Yanyun. Does it still want us to leave the land where our ancestors have lived for generations? Besides, after the Song Dynasty acquired Yanyun through a transaction with the Jin Kingdom more than ten years ago, How they treated us Yanyun Han people, General Yue must have heard about it, the Song Dynasty court did not regard us Yanyun Han people as their own, why should I serve the Song court."

Yue Fei smiled awkwardly and said: "General Guo, the current Song Ting is no longer the former Song Ting. General Guo must know that the current Song Ting is under the control of the regent Li Xin. In the eyes of the prince, all Han people no matter where they live are We are our own people, and I heard that General Guo is also a descendant of Guo Ziyi, the famous general of the Tang Dynasty. Doesn’t General Guo miss the Tang Dynasty?”

Guo Qizhong murmured: "The Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty, of course I miss it. Both my father and grandfather told me how glorious and great the Tang Dynasty was back then, but can we still go back to that era of the Tang Dynasty?"

Yue Fei affirmed: "Of course, General Guo, you may not know that the prince's ambition is to bring us Han people back to the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty. Isn't General Guo willing to witness the return of the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty with his own eyes?"

Guo Qizhong thought for a while and said: "General Yue, can you please allow me to think about it before replying? Also, my family members are all in Fengzhou City. If I want to defect to you, something may happen to my family."

Yue Fei nodded and said: "Of course, let's do this. I will send someone to send General Guo back to Yanjing first. Your Majesty is also in Yanjing at this time. I think your Majesty will be very happy when he sees General Guo. As for the family affairs, I will also Someone will be sent to inform the prince, and I think the prince will make arrangements in advance."

Guo Qizhong was surprised: "Your Majesty is so close to the front line in Yanjing."

Yue Fei said: "Yes, not only that, General Guo, the prince has decided to set the capital in Yanjing."

Hearing what Yue Fei said, Guo Qizhong was even more shocked: "It would be very dangerous to set the capital in Yanjing, which is too close to the front line."

Yue Fei shook his head and said: "Only in this way can the prince's ambition be revealed. King Jin will be destroyed sooner or later."

Guo Qizhong sighed: "Okay, I know. From this point of view, the prince's ambition is indeed lofty."

It was just dawn on the morning of September th. Jin Wushu had breakfast and set off early with his army. At this time, Qu Duan was also ready to lead his army on the road. However, before starting the road, Qu Duan called Yue Yun over. Said: "General Yue, with the addition of five thousand horses, your cavalry has been temporarily expanded to ten thousand. The cavalry is walking in front of the whole army, but you don't have to go so fast. Don't let Jin Wushu notice that we have passed today. After arriving at Shiling Pass, we will slowly follow Jin Wushu today."

Yue Yun was a little confused and said: "What Qu Shuai means"

Qu Duan explained: "If we let Jin Wushu know that we have passed Shiling Pass now, then he will definitely speed up the withdrawal speed. We must let him slow down the withdrawal speed now, so we can't give Jin Wushu too much pressure. pressure."

Yue Yun said thoughtfully: "Let Jin Wushu slow down, Qu Shuai wants to buy time for Feihu and Huailai's friendly forces."

Qu Duan nodded and said: "Yes, after listening to General Peng Xuan's analysis last night, I felt that what he said made sense, but we still don't know where our friendly forces have hit, so let Jin Wushu spend more time on the road. , the possibility of us encircling the Jin Army with friendly forces will greatly increase."

Yue Yun cupped his fists and said, "Yes, Qu Shuai, I understand."

In this way, Jin Wushu led his army in front, and Qu Duan slowly chased behind. The two armies always maintained a distance of twenty miles.

On September th, Han Shizhong received Li Xin's order while leading his army from Lingqiu to Fanzhi. When Han Shizhong saw the letter sent by Li Xin about Jin's request for aid from Xia, he snorted: "I didn't expect that. Jin Guo will ask for help from Xia Guo, and it seems that they will meet their old rival again."

Then Han Shizhong immediately ordered the entire army to speed up, and called Li Shifu and said: "Shifu, your cavalry moves quickly. Now leave the team and rush to Daizhou. When you get to Daizhou, see if there is a chance to capture Daizhou City. If there is no chance, Just hide near Daizhou first."

Li Shifu cupped his fists and said, "Yes, Han Shuai."

Yue Fei, who was attacking Xuande Mansion, also received Li Xin's decree and letter. After reading the letter, Yue Fei also stepped up the siege. In fact, as long as Huailai and Feihu were broken, the Jin army's defense in Datong would be broken. System, although Jin Xizong had previously ordered an army of to be redeployed in Datong, recruiting and deploying troops takes time. Now, more than ten days have passed and the army is far from being deployed. Therefore, the Jin army’s defense near Datong is actually Only Wanyan Xiyin's troops remained in Huailai with Feihu and a small number of scattered troops nearby. Of course, there were still troops garrisoned in Datong City.

Therefore, Yue Fei attacked Xuande Mansion very quickly. After strengthening the siege force, Yue Fei captured Xuande Mansion that afternoon, and then attacked Huai'an. After capturing Huai'an, Baideng is the next step. After Baideng, Not far away is Datong Mansion.
