One Piece of Song Dynasty

At this time, Zhang Jun stood up and scolded: "You are so presumptuous, Jin Wushu, how dare you call my prince by his name?"

Jin Wushu smiled and said: "Haha, look up. Li Xin and I are both princes, so we can be considered equals. Why can't I call Li Xin by his first name?"

Zhang Jung was about to refute Jin Wushu, but Li Xin stopped him and said: "I don't know why the fourth prince of the Jin Kingdom came to our Song Dynasty this time."

Jin Wushu sneered and said: "You Song Dynasty did not abide by the peace treaty. This time I came to attack you on the orders of my emperor. Li Xin, if you had known better, you would have surrendered early and you could still keep your position as the prince of Song Dynasty. However, The peace treaty needs to be re-signed.”

Li Xin pretended to be serious and said: "Oh, then I would like to ask, what are the conditions for this new peace agreement with the Kingdom of Jin?"

Jin Wushu said: "Only Guangdong, Guangxi and Fujian are reserved for the Song Dynasty. The rest are the territory of the Jin Kingdom. The Song Dynasty is a minister and must pay tribute every year."

Li Xin sneered and said: "Jin Wushu, you are too arrogant. Do you really think that no one in the Song Dynasty can cure you? You'd better correct your position. Don't think that we Han people are easy to bully. Tell you that in the Central Plains We Han people are the masters of this land. Sooner or later, you Jurchens will be driven back to your hometown. If you change sides and surrender with courtesy, I will not be stingy in giving you the title of Marquis Dangdang. In this way Isn’t it beautiful?”

Jin Wushu said angrily: "In that case, let's meet the real chapter on the battlefield."

Li Xin said: "Okay, then let me see if your Jin country has the ability to attack this Luzhou City. It just so happens that since Jingkang, you Jin people owe us the heavy blood debt of the Song Dynasty. It's time to settle it."

Jin Wushu returned from fighting the horse. The Jin people quickly organized a wave of trial siege. This trial siege was to see how strong the defense of Luzhou City was. However, Yang Yizhong was not fooled and left behind many trump cards. Only part of the troops were deployed and the Jin soldiers were repulsed.

After watching his neighbors attack the city, Jin Wushu returned to the Chinese army's tent and ordered: "Han Chang, we need to increase the offensive, but don't pay too much attention. Just keep the pressure on Luzhou City and clear the outside of the city." The main purpose is to build defensive fortifications and fill up the moat, so that the enemy has no chance to relax. In addition, we must rush to manufacture siege equipment. When the siege equipment is completed, we will increase the intensity of the siege and strive to capture Luzhou City in one fell swoop."

Han Chang cupped his fists and said, "Yes, Marshal."

The next few days the two sides spent in such a tepid offensive and defensive battle. At this time, it had been twelve years since Yue Fei's attack on Yanyun, and Han Shizhong had just received the news of Xuyi's victory from Yue Chao. Han Shizhong immediately ordered Jie Yuan to lead an army of from Chuzhou to Chuzhou. He himself led an army from Baoying to Chuzhou to encircle and annihilate the remaining half of the enemy's Eastern Route Army.

However, at this time, the commander of the Jin Army's East Route Army, Nie Libei Jin, also received the news of Xuyi's defeat. He instinctively felt that the situation was not good. The current situation made him feel a little embarrassed. On the one hand, Jin Wushu ordered him to contain Han Shizhong's troops. However, after two months of siege battles and Xuyi's defeat, most of his Eastern Route Army had been lost, and there were only people left. It was impossible to contain Han Shizhong's troops with people, and Xuyi listened to The remnant soldiers who escaped were defeated by an unknown number of mysterious cavalry units in a night attack. If this cavalry unit joined forces with Han Shizhong's troops to attack him, then his Eastern Route Army may be completely annihilated.

Thinking of this, Nie Libei Jin immediately issued three orders. The first order was to send the news to Luzhou for Jin Wushu to make a decision. The second order was to send messages to various places in Shandong and order reinforcements to be sent to increase the strength. The third order asked the entire army to stick to the camp and strengthen defense to prevent the enemy from sneak attacks.

At this time, Nie Libei Jin did not know that something big had happened in Shandong behind him. Ma Kuo's troops were rushing to Chuzhou through Haizhou at night, and Guan Sheng and Zhai Liang were suddenly stirred up after entering Shandong. After winning the favor of the people of Shandong, Juzhou and Yizhou were quickly captured. The news of the Song army's arrival was like a huge boulder smashed into the lake, causing huge waves of thousands of meters. The whole Shandong suddenly turned into a pot of porridge. The level of riots in the area ruled by the Jin people has obviously increased a lot, and many people rushed to Juzhou and Yizhou with their families. This caused the pressure on the two states to become great in an instant. Faced with this situation, Guan Sheng and Zhai Liang obviously Lack of preparation and a bit at a loss, the two discussed it and wrote to Ma Kuo asking for countermeasures while appeasing the people.

It was also at this time that the cavalry led by Yue Yun arrived at the outskirts of Shou. After some investigation, Yue Yun learned that the only enemies in Shou were men commanded by Li Cheng. He then decided to use the old method and raid the enemy at night after a rest. military.

At this time, there were only more than regular troops led by Wang Sheng under Han Shizhong in Shoucheng. The others were temporary militiamen recruited. Before the war, there were East Route Army troops guarding Shoucheng. It can be seen that in the past two months, The offensive and defensive battle in Shou was so brutal that even now there are bloodstains everywhere outside Shou City. However, there has been no war in Shou since Jin Wushu left with his army. On the one hand, Li Cheng did not want to attack the city. Of course, his Thousands of people are unable to capture Shou. Jin Wushu's tens of thousands of people besieged Shou for two months but failed to capture it, let alone his current people. Secondly, Wang Sheng is also unable to attack Li Cheng. After all, Wang Sheng has it in his hands. There were only more than remaining soldiers, and it would be good to be able to hold on to longevity, so the two sides faced each other silently.

The next night, the Yue Yun tribe launched a surprise attack on Li Cheng's camp on time. Since the people left by Jin Wushu to Li Cheng were not elites, the battle was resolved quickly. Over there, Wang Shenggang sent troops out of the city. Support, the battle is almost over here. The whole battle lasted only more than one hour, but it was a pity that Li Cheng ran away.

Wang Sheng met Yue Yun and said, "I am Wang Sheng, the general of Shou of the East Road Governor's Mansion. Hello."

Yue Yun replied: "My Yue Yun is the commander-in-chief of this cavalry unit. General Wang, you don't have to be polite. It was the prince who asked me to come down to support your battle at the East Route Governor's Mansion."

Wang Sheng sighed: "Jin Wushu went to Luzhou and took away most of the elites for several years. I don't know what is going on with the prince at the moment."

Yue Yundao said: "There should be no problem if there are troops in Luzhou City to defend for a month. Our first priority now is to seize the time and follow the prince's strategy to destroy the enemy's East Route Army first, and then return home to deal with Jin Wushu's army. However, General Wang can now send his army out to destroy Jin Wushu's logistics transportation line. Shou is the only way to Luzhou for grain and grass supplies, and the grain and grass brought by Jin Wushu's army alone will definitely not be able to sustain it for too long."

Wang Sheng nodded and said: "Thank you, General Yue, for reminding me. I understand what to do."

Yue Yun cupped his fists and said, "General Wang, take care. The army is in an emergency. I'll take my leave now."
