[Main Wenshu] Beifeng Nanzhi

The gunpowder is in hand, and there is enough food and grass. What remains is where to fight and who to send to fight.Yue Fei chose Liyang without much hesitation, but who to send to attack became a problem.The situation in Hangzhou is critical, time is of the essence, and they can only sneak attack at night, the action must be fast, and the generals must be decisive.

After thinking about it, Liu Jing was the only one in the army who could take on the job, but this person... Thinking of the character of this fellow villager, Yue Fei sighed heavily in his heart.

"What's bothering the general?" Wei Yan, who was waiting beside him, asked Yue Fei when he saw that Yue Fei's hand had been placed in Liyang for a long time but he still hadn't made a decision.

"Liu Jing is rampant and vicious but short-sighted. I intend to send him, but I am worried that he will not be able to take up the big job." Yue Fei said frankly.

"The general is worried that Liu Jing will regard himself as the overlord after he arrives in Liyang, and it will be difficult to dispatch him?" Wei Yan pointed out Yue Fei's worries, "In my opinion, he will not be so stupid. Although a man is unruly, he does not think that he can resist the Jin man's attack on his own. Now that he is in danger, he naturally has to rely on the big tree, and with his character, he must rely on it. , Relying on the name, this attack is a great opportunity for him to prove his worth and loyalty to you." He paused, and then said: "This person will never share wealth with you, but now is a time of trouble. What's the point of using him?"

Yue Fei thought for a moment, and felt that his words were reasonable, so he issued a military order.

The next night, Liu Jing was dispatched by Yue Fei to lead thousands of troops to attack Liyang at night and successfully captured the city.At the same time, Yue Fei also personally led the troops to fight in Guangde territory, and won six battles and six victories, which severely frustrated the spirit of the Jin people.In desperation, Jin Wushu had no choice but to give up attacking Hangzhou, send some troops to support the rear, and then took the rest of the soldiers from Mingzhou, which had already been captured, to hunt down Gaozong.

Although most of the south of the Yangtze River fell, the foundation of Thunder Martial Hall was preserved after all. Li Chenzhou did not give up on this force and sent some people to support it. In time, it should be able to return to the state before the arrival of the golden soldiers.

After the movement on both sides subsided, Yue Fei stationed in Zhongcun to recharge his batteries for the next operation.

Wei Yan followed Yue Fei to fight everywhere, only a moment of free time, but his face was always as cold as a mountain, and it was hard to find the slightest trace of fatigue, which made Yue Fei's people feel his inscrutability .

The people of Zhong Village were grateful for Yue Fei's kindness, and saw that he was strict with the law army, not letting his soldiers disturb any household, and their hearts were greatly increased.So the village head of Zhongcun called on the villagers to gather some food and send it to Yue Fei's army.Yue Fei didn't take all of it, but only took [-]% to alleviate the army's food and grass shortage, and ordered his soldiers to help the villagers with their labor, as a reward.

The villagers were even more moved by this move.

However, no matter how moved he was, he couldn't change Yue Fei's army's shortage of food and grass.Wei Yan knew that although Yue Fei didn't show it on the face, he often tossed and turned about it at night.His camp was next to Yue Fei, and every night he could hear the sound of sighs coming from Yue Fei's tent.At this time, Wei Yan couldn't help but think of the Yue family Goro whom he met a long time ago.

At that time, Yue Wulang, who was hesitant to join the army because of his wife and mother's livelihood, would one day realize that what he was planning was about the rise and fall of the Song Dynasty?

The world is like chess, unpredictable.

Wei Yan looked at his hands, which were rough and yellow with calluses on his fingers.He touched his face with such hands, even without a mirror, he knew what kind of face it was, and before others noticed his facial features, the lifelessness on it would be deeply imprinted in their memory.

How could he have thought at that time that he would become like this one day?

In the spring of the fourth year of Jianyan, the army's food dilemma was resolved at the request of the magistrate of Yixing County. Yue Fei led his army to Yixing County at his invitation and received enough food support.

Of course, Yue Fei has new worries.

"I want to recruit the bandits around here." He said one day when he called Wei Yan into his account.

When Yue Fei said this, the decision he made was basically unshakable. After thinking for a while, Wei Yan felt that this is indeed an effective way to strengthen himself, but there are some problems that need to be reminded in advance: "Among the bandits There are poor people who are forced to become bandits, and there are villains who bully the weak, do you have a way to distinguish? How to deal with the conflict between the recruited bandits and refugees and the original soldiers?"

"I haven't thought about it, but there is always a way." Yue Fei frowned briefly, and then said, "As long as there is a common goal of resisting the Jin soldiers, what differences can't be resolved?"

Of course there is!Wei Yan almost blurted out.Yue Fei is almost all good, but he is too idealistic on some issues.He himself regards the safety of the world as his own responsibility, but he never thought that there will always be people in this world who only care about his own safety; he only knows that being passive cannot solve the problem, but he never thought that someone would regard active resistance as death.

However, if Yue Fei also learned to be deceitful and gave up his ideals, what reason would he have to stay here?

Thinking like this, Wei Yan didn't say what he wanted to say. He told Yue Fei about the bandits in Yixing that he had sorted out before, and then pointed out that easing the conflict was only the first step, and the more important thing was the training and reorganization of the bandits. Let them move closer to the regular army. Only in this way can conflicts be avoided.

Yue Fei is a vigorous and resolute person. The next day after he made his decision, he sent letters to several "thieves have the right way" gangsters, talking about their intention to organize their joint fight against gold.Most of these bandits have relatives in Liyang and Yixing, and they already knew Yue Fei's character, so they packed up their bags and went to defect without much hesitation.These people were originally poor people, and the so-called banditry habit was not as serious as Yue Fei had expected. With Yue Fei's coordination and fair rules, these people quickly integrated into the army and became a combat force that cannot be ignored.

In several small-scale conflicts with Jin Bing afterwards, Yue Fei keenly discovered another type of force that could be absorbed—the signing army forcibly conscripted by the Jin Army.He sent envoys to negotiate with these people, and recruited them with his own virtue and national righteousness, which not only reduced the power of the Jin people, but also strengthened himself.As a result, his name spread farther and attracted more people to join him.

After a period of time like this, the strength of Yue Fei's army has more than doubled, and his reputation has spread far and wide to the court.

It is easy for my parents to give birth to me, but it is also difficult for my parents to protect me.

The praise of Yixing people is both appreciation and responsibility.

Yue Fei's growth caused some troubles for Jin Bing. They were not afraid, but they also had the idea of ​​"they should go when they have enough money".Jin Wushu chose to retreat after chasing Gaozong for three months without success. Of course, he finally made a fortune in Mingzhou, Lin'an and other places. It seems that this time he can return with a full reward...

If there is no Yue Fei.

When the Jin soldiers passed through Changzhou, Yue Fei, who had been waiting for a long time, personally led his elite soldiers to intercept from Yixing, beating the mighty Jin soldiers into confusion and confusion.After this battle, about ten Jin nobles fell into Yue Fei's hands.This battle of winning more with less quickly spread across the country, and finally a little hope was ignited in the hearts of the suffering people.

They looked for people they knew and asked for details of the battle.

Where did you fight?Who led the soldiers?Did many people die?Are there more dead than golden men?How did we win?

Is this hard time coming to an end?

Few people can speak clearly, and the pain of worry and hope intertwined in the heart is hard to describe, but in any case, there are always fewer people who have the will to die and those who prefer to die.

This battle not only gave Yue Fei a great reputation, but also allowed him to receive the first imperial edict in so long.

When Yue Fei's close lieutenant told Wei Yan the news as great news, he was surprised to find that he didn't show any joy.

"Mr. Wei, we don't have to fight alone anymore." He thought that Mr. Wei didn't understand the meaning of this edict for a while, so he explained enthusiastically.

"Really?" Wei Yan twitched the corner of his mouth. Although he looked smiling, he was obviously not very happy.

"Mr. Wei, we can also have food and new equipment." The lieutenant general continued. Although he fought bravely, he had never been in contact with the court, and he had never dealt with "high officials" other than Yue Fei. "We can Kill more golden soldiers, and you can take back more land from them."

Wei Yan didn't say anything, he couldn't bear to break the young man's fantasy.He didn't want to tell him that when they were under the control of the court, it was very likely that the chances of rebelling against the Song Dynasty were much more than the chances of attacking the Jinren.

"Let's go to General Yue and see what kind of edict the court issued."
