The number one scholar of the Song Dynasty

As a result, Zhe Keqiu's family was transferred to Shandong, and became a rich man from the local emperor who had been separated for 500 years.The Zhong brothers went to the Privy Council where Han Shizhong dreamed of going, and went to retire.

In fact, in the original time and space, Da Song, the last field group, was still deeply involved in the party struggle four years after Da Song Xuanhe, and was torn apart and greatly damaged in combat effectiveness.In Jurchen's first large-scale southward march, the Western Army was almost powerless.During Jurchen’s second journey to the south to destroy the Northern Song Dynasty, Xiaozhong led a 10,000+ reinforcement army composed of the Western Army as the backbone to rescue Taiyuan, but was defeated by Yin Keshu with a mere ten thousand cavalry, and Xiaozhong also died on the battlefield.

Yang Lin, who was galloping fast, sighed in his heart. After all, it was someone else's army, and it was not as smooth as the troops under Han Shizhong's command.The Western Army is capable of fighting, and it is a rare strong soldier in the Song Army who can fight in the field.But given Yang Lin's choice, he would rather choose to command Song Jiang's mixed cavalry than to command the Western Army on hills.

Sanggan River, the camp of the Song Army.

Yao Pingzhong was in Yunzhou at this time, and had not heard from the Jurchen for several days, and the atmosphere in the camp was relatively relaxed.

Many soldiers took off their armor and drank their horses by the river to rinse them off. The nearby Khitan barracks were also silent.

During the big rise, Yao Pingzhong was lying on a chair, snoring loudly.Suddenly a small soldier broke the tranquility and comfort of the barracks, galloped his horse and rolled up a field of loess.

The little soldier ignored him and did not slow down at all. The generals knew that this must be an emergency situation.

"Hey, see, there's going to be a war again." A veteran said with a smile while covering his nose.

The people around didn't care, turned their heads and continued to bask in the sun: "When the war drums sounded, I would touch the guns to fight. These bird tartars are like living people, and they are like livestock. They are not afraid of pain or death. Back then, I only said The western thieves are ferocious, but I didn't expect the Jurchen Tartars to be even more powerful. This is not my hometown of Qinfeng, I really don't understand the big turban on the top, why do I have to fight a group of orcs in this Khitan land."

The soldier rode up to the front of the big tent, one Gu Lu got off his horse, his movements were flowing, he stepped into the big tent, and said loudly: "General, there is news from Datong City."

Yao Ping Zhonghu opened his eyes, and quickly woke up from his sleepiness, and said in a deep voice, "What's the news?"

"General, please take a look."

Xiaobing stepped forward quickly and took out a secret letter. Yao Pingzhong took it over and looked at it, and Ji Ling was completely sleepless.

"Come on, beat the summoning general's drum!"

Yao Pingzhong never panicked, even when facing Jurchen's main force, he was able to calmly arrange and arrange troops.But at this moment, his hands trembled slightly. If a big mistake happened, he would not be able to explain to his mentor even if he died.

Yao Pingzhong was very remorseful, he probably didn't want to contribute to Khitan, even the generals under his command complained a lot because they didn't receive the great contribution to regaining Youyan.

In their view, Han Shizhong's army was not as capable as the Western Army, and the reason why he was able to go to Youyan was purely because he was a direct descendant of Yang Shaozai.People like myself were assigned to Yunzhou Prefecture to fight for other countries in a foreign country.The army was in a mood of slacking off, and they were too happy to see the Jurchens gone, so how could they take the initiative to fight with them.

In Datong City, Yunzhou Prefecture, Gao Bing sent someone to spread the news, saying that he had vaguely heard the news of the Jurchens sending envoys to talk secretly from his sworn brothers, which made Yao Pingzhong more vigilant.

After reading the secret letter, Yao Pingzhong changed his mind, and immediately thought of a terrible fact.

It has long been no secret that the Jurchen Chen Bing is at the foot of the Great Wall. Everyone knows that there will be a big battle after autumn.The Jurchen Tartars were anxious to avenge Wanyan Wu, and Song Dynasty would not sit back and watch Youyan fall again. This battle will be the highlight of the future.

At this time, Aguda and his army suddenly disappeared for a few days, and there were Jurchens in Datong Mansion

Yao Pingzhong immediately thought that it was the Jurchens who took the initiative to seek peace talks with Khitan, and after stabilizing the Khitan, killed Youyan from Weizhou. In this way, the two armies marched together, if Youyan was unprepared, it would be extremely dangerous.

In this moment, his palms were already soaked with sweat, and his forehead was even more sweaty.

After a while, the big tent was full of young generals. The younger generals of this western army were the result of the rectification of the western army by the central government.Everyone looked at Yao Pingzhong, and they were very surprised. You must know that he is not a person who is easy to show such an expression.

"Send all sentries to find out the whereabouts of the Jurchens!"

Chapter 425 Heroes see roughly the same

At the gate of Yizhou City, the lazy defenders suddenly stood up, and a group of cavalry came galloping in the distance, rolling up the loess all over the sky.

Without him shouting, all the defenders on the tower had already lay down on the low wall, raising their hands to shade the sun and looking out.

Pioneer Yiqi led the crowd and had already rushed to the bottom of the city, shouting: "Young Zai Yang Lin is here in person, open the city gate quickly."

It turned out that Yang Lin and the others rode so fast that they arrived earlier than the reporter. The guard looked confused and didn't believe it, and shouted from the tower: "Let me report."

After finishing speaking, he ran down the city and went straight to the Yizhou government office.The guards of the Long Live Battalion under the city rode their horses to a high hill, held the whip in their hands and raised it up to shade the sun, and made sure that there were no other troops, so they waited patiently.

The magistrate and defense envoy of Yizhou arrived at the gate of the city almost together with Yang Lin. Yang Lin sat on the horse. The two officials of Yizhou, one civil and one military, were promoted by Yang Lin himself.

Liu Liangsi, the defender of Yizhou, took his whip and ordered the soldiers to lead the horse away. He clasped his fists and said, "The last general doesn't know how to come here, and he is far away to welcome him. I hope that the younger commander will forgive me."

Yang Lin snorted coldly and scolded: "I have a thousand cavalry, and the march is several miles long. You don't even know that such troops are rushing to the city around Yizhou. If Jurchen hit the city , you don’t know either?”

Liu Liangsi wiped the sweat from his forehead and kept pleading guilty. Zhao Changxu, the magistrate next to him, said with a smile: "Young Zai came from the east, and it's our territory all the way to the sea. It's not that we don't have sentries in Yizhou, but we all It's placed on the west side."

Yang Lin lowered his eyelids, pointed at Lu Qian and said, "Take 200 people and run around the west of the city, and return at sunset."

After riding the horse for so long, Lu Qian showed no signs of tiredness on his face. He put his finger on his lips and whistled, and rode away on the horse, followed closely behind him by more than 200 personal guards.

The others surrounded Yang Lin and came to the top of the tower. Yang Lin was sitting on the tower, and Zhao Changxu and Liu Liangsi next to him looked anxious.

Yang Lin didn't say a word, time passed slowly, the soldiers took out dry food to eat, Liu Liangsi stepped forward with a smile and said: "Sir, can I have dinner in the city?"

Yang Lin waved his hand and asked for a piece of cake from Lu Wang. Lu Wang pulled out the wine bag and stuffed it into his hand.

Taking a bite of the cake with the strong wine, Yang Lin looked at the two people behind him and said, "It's been a long time since you've been out, and I haven't seen your scout report. This is already dereliction of duty. Could it be that the Jurchen Tartars couldn't touch the city in half a day?" , if you still don’t see anyone at dusk, you will get out of here.”

The two trembled and looked at each other, but they didn't dare to speak again.Although Yang Lin no longer had the power to dismiss them from their official posts, but in this place, after Yang Lin spoke, the two had no choice but to resign and return home.

After another half an hour, the anger between Yang Lin's brows continued to accumulate, and finally a few light cavalry came down from the city, and after being led up to the city by the defenders, he clasped his fists and said: "Qifufu, the defense envoy, in the area of ​​Baima Mountain, suddenly A group of cavalry appeared, I don't know where it came from."

Liu Liangsi and Zhao Changxu looked at each other and gave a sigh of relief at the same time. Yang Lin snorted coldly and cursed: "At least you two scumbags didn't neglect your duties to the point of being hopeless. When I sent you to the post, I told you with kind words. You, there are a large number of Jurchen soldiers and horses in Yunzhou, which is more than all the enemy troops in Youyan combined, and Yizhou, where you are located, bears the brunt, so please be careful.

This Yizhou is surrounded by dense forests and giant trees, and there are three rivers, so it is very secretive.You kept a watchful eye on the west side, and no one came to the east to report the news until it was near dusk. What did you take my words for? Do you feel a breeze in your ears? "

The two of them clasped their fists and bent over at the same time, sweating profusely, not daring to refute.Yang Lin flicked his sleeves, strode downstairs, and said: "Take twenty army sticks each, give them a long memory, and then call all the officials to meet me at the government office."

The magistrate and the defense envoy are already the lords of a government, and they are the backbone of the bureaucratic system of the Song Dynasty, but when Yang Lin said a word, someone immediately stepped forward and carried them to execution on the spot.Yang Lin's prestige in Yandi is really extraordinary. He took this place step by step, and those Yandi tyrants who surrendered only recognize Yang Shaozai.

You have offended Yang Lin, and you are an official in Yandi, you have to worry about it at any time, for fear of accidentally "stirring public anger"

In Yizhou City, groups of guards suddenly appeared on various streets.Officials all over the city rushed to the magistrate's office, and the people on the road were also affected by this emotion and became a little nervous.

Benefiting from Gao Gang's lobbying, Yizhou City returned to the Song Dynasty without experiencing war, and there were still some Khitan generals in the city who were unwilling to follow Yelu Dashi, and they also integrated into the Song Army camp.Hu and Han have lived together in these places for a hundred years, and many Khitan people have been Sinicized and become part of Youyan Land.

All the people in the city, regardless of Hu Han, folded their arms and watched curiously on the street, whispering to each other from time to time, revealing their worries about the situation between the lines.

They had just settled down, but they had heard of the cruelty of the Jurchens, and finally returned to Song Dynasty to live a stable life for a few days, and no one wanted to continue fighting.

---

When Yang Lin summoned the generals in Yizhou City, Han Shizhong was on the Great Wall outside Tanzhou with a serious face.

Looking at the Jurchen camp slowly gathering under the Great Wall, Han Shizhong already smelled something unusual.

"The behavior of the Jurchen Tartars is a bit abnormal. It's strange. We have more casualties than them, and they even gathered to avoid the battle."

Zong Ze and him looked at each other, and said in a concentrated voice: "Could it be to attack?"

"From my point of view, it's very possible, but those Tartars are all burrows drilled out of ice holes. They're bastards that will produce layers of lard in the sun. Huxu, things may not be that simple."

Zong Ze stood up, walked to his side, and looked down at the sand table together.Their eyes suddenly moved to the north, and they raised their heads in an instant, and said in a tacit understanding: "Weizhou!"
