Rebirth: Overthrow Song Dynasty

The weather is extremely cold, and the Yellow River has already been frozen solid!

Qin Hui had already ordered hay to be spread on the ice of the Yellow River, and the army rushed towards the opposite side in a panic!

Unlike Zhao Chen's men, these troops under Zhao Gou have extremely poor military discipline! It has been three or four years since the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, and they still haven't changed much! Especially the regular army was better. The rebel army was originally some guerrilla organization. They had never assembled in such a large scale before, and now everyone was laughing loudly!

In the cold wind, their voices floated far away!

"We were going to raid Tongguan! But in this state, how can we raid Tongguan? I'm afraid the guards at Tongguan already knew about our arrival!" Qin Hui frowned.

"Even if they know, so what? Their main force has been transferred by the Jurchens, and they only have 10,000 to 20,000 troops left in Tongguan! We have 800,000 soldiers and horses under our command! No matter how strong Tongguan is, we Eight hundred thousand soldiers and horses can level Tongguan!" The handsome young general laughed.

"Not bad!" Qin Hui thought for a moment, then nodded!

For this action, Qin Hui is quite confident! He felt that even without the Jurchen, it might not be impossible to conquer Tongguan! What's more, after the Jurchens entered Guanshan from Longmen, the defenders of Tongguan must go to stop the Jurchens! As the young general said, it doesn't matter even if he is discovered!

Although the ice surface of the Yellow River is solid, they have too many soldiers and horses! After a while, a crack appeared on the ice surface, and Qin Hui hurriedly asked people to cross the river from the ice surface next to it, not to mention that!

But at this moment in Tongguan, the sound of emergency assembly has already sounded!

On the east side, the noise of the army crossing the river was so loud that even Tongguan could hear it!

At the moment, 10,000 veterans of the Forbidden Army are staying at Tongguan, and their commander is Yang Zhong! This Yang Zhong is exactly the general of the Zhejia army that Zhao Chen saw just after he killed Zhe Keqiu! He is highly skilled in martial arts, but has a simple and honest personality and is devoted to his duties! When Yue Fei left, he was specially left to guard Tongguan!

"General, what happened?" A school lieutenant came to Yang Zhong's side and asked.

"I have sent people down to investigate! There are enemies coming!" Yang Zhong said.

"Who could it be? Didn't the Jurchens land from Longmen? Could it be that they landed from here again?" the captain said in disbelief.

"I don't know!" Yang Zhong frowned!

After a while, several soldiers rushed in, and one soldier said: "General, the following are not Jurchens, but the army of traitors!"

Yang Zhong was taken aback for a moment, and said, "A rebel army?"

The soldier said: "That's right, it's King Kang's army of rebels! There are so many of them, there are so many people, I don't know how many there are! General, their goal is Tongguan!"

Yang Zhong frowned tightly, and said: "Quick! Let all the soldiers go to the city wall and take out all the defense equipment! This time is extremely dangerous, we must stop the rebel army!"

The lieutenants and soldiers below immediately conveyed his orders, not to mention that!

Yang Zhong himself had already strode towards the city wall, and when he reached the city wall, he said again: "Immediately order someone to go to Chang'an and inform His Majesty of the situation here... If possible, let His Majesty leave Chang'an immediately, Chang'an is too dangerous now! I'm worried that we may not be able to hold Tongguan!"

A school lieutenant next to him was stunned, and said, "We will definitely be able to defend Tongguan!"

Yang Zhong shook his head and said: "Your Majesty's life is as important as the sky, you must not let your majesty be in a dangerous situation! You must inform your majesty!"

The captain nodded, and immediately arranged for someone to report to Chang'an!

In just a quarter of an hour, all the soldiers of the Forbidden Army had arrived on the city wall! Countless city defense weapons have also been carried to the city wall! The entire city wall is busy!

It was snowing heavily outside, and in the heavy snow, noisy sounds from a distance could already be heard! Some of these noisy voices seemed to come from three or four miles away, and some seemed to come from more than ten miles away! Just by listening to this voice, one can guess how long the enemy's team is!

"General Yue, General Yue, you may not have imagined that the army of rebels would attack Tongguan at this time!" Yang Zhong was extremely anxious at this moment!

Gradually, Zhao Gou's army appeared below!

At the beginning, there were a dozen people, and soon it became dozens of people, and in the end it became tens of thousands! And behind the tens of thousands of people, there are countless people who don't know how many people there are!

"The number of the rebel army is at least over one hundred thousand!" Yang Zhong said, his heart was full of pressure!

It's a pity that what he doesn't know is "one hundred thousand" or an underestimation of the number of Zhao Gou's army!

"The military discipline of the rebel army is extremely poor. It is so noisy and the team is extremely chaotic! If they are under the same number, they are definitely not our opponents!" Seeing the appearance of Zhao Gou's army below, Yang Zhong felt a little more confident in his heart. !

At this moment, a handsome young man with silver armor and silver armor came out from the ranks below. This was the young general who had just talked to Qin Hui!

He was so handsome that Yang Zhong above couldn't help but be taken aback!

"The generals above come out and speak!" The young general pointed the silver gun in his hand and shouted loudly.

"What do you have to say?" Yang Zhong stood up and said.

"This general is Liu Guangshi under the command of Emperor Jianyan's Liu Family Army! Emperor Jianyan personally appointed him as the Jiedu Envoy of the Fengguo Army! Don't you come down immediately to meet him?" The handsome young general said in a mocking tone.

It turned out that he was Liu Guangshi who first took refuge in Zhao Gou, and now he has been named a senior official of "Jiedu Envoy" by Zhao Gou! He came from a family of soldiers and generals, so he naturally had a sense of arrogance. He looked down on Yang Zhong, who looked like a general with mud legs!

"Liu Guangshi? So you are Liu Guangshi! You were the one who wanted to assassinate His Majesty back then! You deserve death! If I had the chance, I would never let you go!" Yang Zhong said coldly.

"You won't let me go? What are you? Well, I won't talk nonsense with you today. Emperor Jianyan's army has already approached Tongguan. Come down and surrender immediately! When you kneel in front of me, Liu Guangshi, if you If you have a good attitude, I will spare you!" Liu Guangshi said disdainfully.

"Emperor Jianyan is a traitor, guilty of treason and injustice, how could we surrender to Emperor Jianyan?" Yang Zhong sneered.

"If my guess is correct, the main force of your Tongguan defenders has already left here and headed north! You only have 10,000 to 20,000 troops at most now, do you know how many troops we have used this time?" Liu Guangshi laughed loudly.

"I don't know!" Yang Zhong said flatly.

While chatting with Liu Guangshi, he looked behind! In the back, countless soldiers of the Forbidden Army are constantly carrying up the weapons for defending the city! More and more defensive weapons were placed here, and his heart became more and more at ease!

"Eight hundred thousand!" Liu Guangshi laughed.

"What?" Yang Zhong was really surprised this time!

"How? You are definitely not our opponents! Come down quickly, kneel down and surrender, I will spare your lives!" Liu Guangshi laughed loudly.

"800,000 troops is indeed a huge number! However, we are the subordinates of Emperor Xuanwu! Emperor Xuanwu is a god who came down to earth, and is a saint, great man, and god-man of today. If we die for Emperor Xuanwu, You can also enter the Heavenly Court in the future! If we take refuge in the rebels, we will be thrown into the 18th floor of hell in the future! Do you think I, Yang Zhong, am a fool to join the rebels?" Yang Zhong said disdainfully.

Hearing Yang Zhong's words, Liu Guangshi was stunned! He didn't expect Yang Zhong to say such a "wonderful" remark!

Wang Shu's Propaganda Department was the first to enter the Forbidden Army, and they carried out ideological education in the Forbidden Army! Later, this ideological education also focused on the education of personality worship! As for Yang Zhong, although he looks very simple and simple, but he actually believes in the theory of "gods descending to earth" from the Propaganda Department! His words at the moment were almost the same as those of the cult members, and Liu Guangshi was at a loss all of a sudden!

"Aren't you crazy?" Liu Guangshi asked after a long time.

"To die for His Majesty Xuanwu is a worthy death! If you betray Emperor Xuanwu, you will be stigmatized forever! Humph, let alone an army of 800,000, even if it is an army of 8 million, I, Yang Zhong, will never surrender! Let alone me, the people around me Not one of these soldiers will surrender! You say, don’t you?” Yang Zhong laughed loudly!

"yes!"

"General Yang is right, how could we surrender?"

"Even if we die in battle, our lives will be on the martyrs' shrine! We die with honor!"

"Damn rebels, what do you think of us? They even let us join the rebels? Ridiculous, ridiculous!"

There were such voices everywhere, and the officers and soldiers of the Forbidden Army above burst into laughter, constantly mocking Liu Guangshi below!

"Damn! Damn! These people are lunatics and fools! Attack the city immediately!" Liu Guangshi gritted his teeth!

*** ***

At present, under Liu Guangshi's order, his Liu family army launched an attack on Tongguan!

The road in Tongguan is difficult, and the siege weapons cannot be lifted up in a short time. At this moment, only hundreds of ladders have been erected!

Liu Jiajun's soldiers began to swarm towards the ladder and climb towards it!

"Smash it! Smash it hard!" Yang Zhong sneered from above.

Following Yang Zhong's order, countless huge boulders fell from above! Immediately, countless Liu Jiajun soldiers were smashed to pieces!

Just a wave of boulders fell, and Liu Jiajun's soldiers retreated one after another, and no one continued to move forward!

Although Liu Guangshi was one of the four generals of Zhongxing in the Southern Song Dynasty, his own talents were too limited! The army he trained was also famous for running away. If there was a slight casualty, the army would not dare to persist and would retreat!

"Damn it! Supervisor team, catch them up with me! If you see someone retreating, shoot them to death immediately!" Liu Guangshi yelled angrily.

He used to be exceptionally handsome, but at this moment, the scolding is extremely ferocious!

The supervisor team behind rushed up, and they used bows and arrows to force those ordinary soldiers to move forward! In the ancient Chinese army, the "supervisor team" is a configuration that almost every army has! In ancient times, soldiers served as soldiers only for their salary, and many people even recruited strong men to become soldiers. Under such circumstances, if there is no supervisory team, the army will have no fighting power at all, and the soldiers will not move forward at all! Of course, this is an ordinary army, and there are also some elite troops such as Yue's Army, Han's Army, Qi's Army, etc. The soldiers are all advancing bravely, which is different! The same is true for the current imperial army, each of them is going forward bravely, and will never retreat!

Liu Jiajun soldiers rushed up again! This time, another huge boulder fell. Although Liu Jiajun soldiers killed and injured some people, under the supervision of the supervising team, the remaining soldiers still had to rush up!

It's just that their enthusiasm is very low. The soldiers in front are holding their shields, while the soldiers behind are hiding behind the soldiers in front and dare not stride forward!

"Fire the arrows!" Seeing more and more soldiers of the Liu family army rushing up, Yang Zhong shouted, and arrows rained down like rain!

There are even thousands of divine arm bows on it. The penetrating power of the divine arm bow is too strong, and there are screams from below!

Liu Jiajun retreated again, and Liu Guangshi once again ordered the supervising team to catch up with the soldiers!

Such a full hour has passed, Liu Guangshi is really hard to continue!

At this moment, more and more troops rushed to the city of Tongguan from behind, and one of the young generals, who was slightly black, came to Qin Hui and said, "Master Qin, we must immediately take down Tongguan, and then go to Chang'an, not here. The delay is too long! I'm afraid General Liu can't do it, so let me do it!"

Qin Hui frowned and looked ahead, then nodded after a while, and said, "Okay, General Zhang, this time it's up to you!"

At the moment when Qin Hui gave the order, Liu Guangshi led the Liu family's army back in dismay, and the long blackish young general led his army towards Tongguan!
