Chapter 755

Li Ting didn't feel how heavy the rain was through the strong cowhide tent.When he dressed neatly and strode out, he was immediately drenched by the rain, and the huge raindrops hit his face, which made it painful.

For a moment, Li Ting was a little dazed. He shouted, "Where does Wanyan Heda's team come from?"

In the darkness, the subordinate pointed to a certain direction: "Southwest!"

Li Ting looked in that direction, and saw layers of black rain curtains intertwined with water lines, and the rain curtains swayed with the wind, covering the sky even darker, blocking the faint signs of dawn, and blocking his vision.Li Ting set up an awning and looked into the sky, only seeing thick clouds and lightning flashes between the clouds.

"Damn it, I can't see anything here! What about the ranger, did he see it right?"

The ranger had already come to the tent of the Chinese Army, heard and knelt down to report: "Jie Shuai, I am right, I did not ride a horse, I walked closer to check carefully, because of this, I almost bumped into the vanguard of the Jin Army, and ate them all arrow!"

Li Ting stared intently, only to see a deep wound on You Qi's shoulder. Although it was simply bandaged, blood was still oozing out, and then washed away by the rain.

"Thank you!" Li Ting nodded, and asked again, "Did the enemy find you?"

"They probably thought it was a small beast passing by, so they shot arrows at random, but they didn't notice me!"

"Okay, let's go to rest and record a great achievement!"

The ranger bowed happily and retreated, Li Ting patted the scout leader on the shoulder again: "What about the others? Didn't they return?"

"Additional manpower has been dispatched, cautiously lurking, and reporting movements at any time!"

When Li Ting nodded repeatedly, the general sighed beside him: "In this weather, a bow and arrow will be useless if you shoot it twice. They are really prodigals!"

Li Ting laughed: "This battle is a life-threatening battle. After the battle, it's useless for them to ask for bows and arrows!"

The two armies entangled and confronted each other for four or five days. Just as Li Ting wanted to defeat Wanyan Heda, Wanyan Heda's chance was to defeat Li Ting.

Under the planning of Ding Haijun, the troops available for dispatch by the Kaifeng imperial court were stranded in various places, and were restrained and blocked by Ding Haijun separately.However, it was Guo Ning himself who led the army to approach Kaifeng.

Perhaps Kaifeng City can repel Guo Ning in isolation with the encouragement of the emperor and the hard work of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians, but that is only a possibility on paper.The more battle-tested generals and schools are, the less likely they will pin their hopes on this.

If Kaifeng does not receive timely support, it will probably be ruined.

Daikin will also end accordingly.

So it is meaningless to confront Li Ting here, no matter what, Wanyan Heda has to rush to Kaifeng.

But there is another possibility that has to be guarded against, that is, Guo Ning uses strong troops to coerce Kaifeng, but is not in a hurry to attack the city.After this person took down Xuzhou and Guide Mansion, he had a channel to continuously deliver supplies from the rear. He could use Kaifeng City as a bait in his spare time, waiting for the reinforcements rushing from all over to arrive, and then defeated them one by one. , Wipe away the last bit of force of the Jurchens.

If Wanyan Heda led his troops to Kaifeng directly, he would have to resist the frenzied pursuit of Li Ting's troops from the back and confront Guo Ningfang from the front.He didn't think he had the ability to deal with fierce dogs and tigers at the same time.

To take a step back, under the situation that the Kaifeng court was barely maintaining, the only remaining food and supplies first satisfied the soldiers of the thirteen captains who went south to plunder.The Xiangzhou Grain Depot controlled by Wanyan Heda has long since bottomed out. To take such an army to the south for a long distance, it will be very difficult to provide food and drink along the way, and there is a danger of running out of food on the way.

So Wanyan Heda's only solution is to take down Li Ting.

After taking down Li Ting, food, fodder and supplies will be available, and morale will be boosted. Even those on the east side of the river who have their own strength and wait and see, such as Guo Wenzhen and Wuxian, will persist longer.Wanyan Heda has no worries, so he can select thousands of elites and rush to Kaifeng.

Of course, by then there will be fierce battles.Life and death are another matter.

Right now, all we need to do is kill Li Ting!
At this time, it was raining heavily, it was clear that the Jurchen's vitality was not exhausted, and there was still God's help!
The rain should start to fall from Zishi, and reach the maximum level of rain at Yinshi.

The huge amount of rainwater poured down like a river in the sky, and after landing, it directly merged into a stream, a river pond, and even a roaring waterfall.But the roar of the water was far less than the violent thunder in the sky. The thunder and lightning seemed to be jumping above everyone's heads, and would smash the ants-like humans below into powder at any time.

Since the reign of Emperor Zhangzong, Dajin's celestial phenomenon has not been normal.The east and west roads of Hebei have suffered severe drought for four consecutive years, so that hundreds of thousands of people have been displaced, and dozens of military states have starved to death.However, during the reign of Zhenyou, the drought turned into a rain disaster. There was a heavy rain almost every year, and it often broke out on the complicated terrain of Hebei West Road, which in turn caused floods and waterlogging.

The current rain is almost at the level of a rain disaster.

In such an environment, Wanyan Heda approached with his troops.

Under the torrential rain, it was impossible to light the torch, and the entire army relied entirely on the electric light and the leadership of the village leaders at the front, like giant pythons connected end to end, marching hard.If you look closely, many soldiers of this army are shirtless, holding straight knives in their mouths, and using their hands and feet to pull and climb on the muddy ground.If this is the case, they often take one step forward and two steps back, one by one suddenly turning into clay figurines, and then being splashed clean by the rain.

"Thank you, Wanyan Heda, for your hard work! Five miles ahead is Li Ting's camp. If you kill a head in this battle, you will be rewarded with money and food! If you win this battle, I will take you there!" Zhongdu will be rewarded again! Everyone will share the fields and land, get promoted and get rich! I, Wanyan Heda, will never break my promise!"

Wanyan Heda stood on the gravel foundation of an abandoned manor, trying to shout to the soldiers.Marching in the rain for twenty miles, he kept running back and forth to encourage him, his voice was already hoarse, so the shouts could not be heard very far in the rainstorm, and only those who passed by him could hear them.

A soldier raised his eyes and took a deep look at Yan Heda.Wanyan Heda recognized that this soldier was signed into the army in Xiangzhou, when his mother was ill and couldn't bear to part with her.It was Wanyan Heda who came forward to find a medical officer for diagnosis and treatment, so that he could join the army with peace of mind, and kowtowed to thank Wanyan Heda for his kindness.

At this moment, the soldier couldn't care less about what to say to Wanyan Hedado. The rain was so heavy that it seemed as if he would catch a mouthful of rainwater when he opened his mouth, so he just continued to trudge forward with a deep foot and a shallow foot.

Wanyan Heda didn't know how many soldiers he could inspire by shouting like this, but he could only do so much.

Since his arrival in Kaifeng, Wanyan Heda has assembled such an army in just two years, not relying on violence, let alone the majesty of the Kaifeng court, but his method of loving soldiers like sons.On the other hand, Sui Wang Wanyan Shouxu is also a rare king in the Dajin Kingdom in the past few decades. He is quite diligent and caring for the people, and he has given Wanyan Heda a lot of support.

Wanyan Heda often thought that without Guo Ning, he and his colleagues would devote themselves to assisting King Sui for ten years.Maybe it can rejuvenate Daikin, even break the barrier between Jurchen and Han'er, and truly turn the world into one family.

It's a pity that since Guo Ning became Zhou Guogong in Zhongdu, his intention to replace Dajin couldn't be more obvious.Although a large number of Jurchens fled to Henan in the central capital, which caused the power of the Kaifeng court to suddenly swell, but within the territory of the Kaifeng court, countless Han children also had their hearts fluttered because of this.

No matter how much power Wanyan Heda exerted, he could not change the fact that the Dajin court had been unpopular for too long, and it was impossible for a good emperor or a few virtuous officials to turn it around.In the past tens of hundreds of years, the Han children had no other choice.Now that they have a choice, will they still stand on Daikin's side?

Wanyan Heda didn't know the answer to this question.All he knew was that the Dajin Kingdom's army was full of Han'er, and he had exhausted all his strength to maintain this army, as well as the inertia of these soldiers to obey their superiors.

Although Ding Hai's soldiers came too fast, and Guo Ning clearly did not want to give the Kaifeng court time to integrate, Wanyan Heda hoped to give it a try.At least, he can rely on his own prestige to keep making promises to drive the soldiers.

This kind of drive is like a strong medicine. If it doesn't work once, the patient will be seriously ill, and the effect of the medicine itself will not last long.Fortunately, once is enough.The dark and dense camp is right in front of you, Wanyan Heda only needs the soldiers to muster up the courage to enter and kill all the enemy troops!
"Marshal, we have approached one mile! There is no movement in the enemy camp!"

"Marshal, we have approached three hundred paces! The enemy camp is still silent!"

"Marshal, we have entered the checkpoint on the south side of the enemy camp! The battle is over! The battle is over!"

Wanyan Heda stood upright. He looked around and saw the muddy soldiers drenched by the heavy rain. The cold made Ru Lin's limbs turn grayish white, like a group of evil spirits; Reflect cold light.

This cold light will soon turn into blood light!
"Get in!" Wanyan Heda shouted wildly.

The footsteps of thousands of people suddenly accelerated, trampling the ground, roaring like thunder.
