Rebirth: Overthrow Song Dynasty

Chapter 341 Wan Yanchang

"Is it our Jurchen army?" The commander-in-chief of the personal soldiers was the first to yell.

Jin Wushu looked towards the east, with a surprised expression on his face.

At this moment, the defeated soldiers beside Jin Wushu cheered one after another!

There is indeed a large army coming here in the distance. Judging by their dress and appearance, it is indeed the Jurchen army.

Just why did the Jurchen army appear here? Jin Wushu is unbelievable.

"Could it be Wanyanchang's army?" Jin Wushu secretly asked.

"Fourth prince, it must be the grand master who led the army from the east! Let's join them immediately!" The commander said in surprise.

The so-called grand master is Wan Yanchang, and now Wan Yanchang is serving as the grand master of the Great Jin Kingdom.

"It should be Wan Yanchang! Let's go see him!" Jin Wushu nodded and said.

Immediately, Jin Wushu led more than 5,000 rout soldiers towards the opposite side. After they appeared, the Jurchen army on the opposite side immediately became vigilant, but soon they recognized that they were their own people, and immediately released the 5,000 rout soldiers. go in.

The five thousand rout soldiers were extremely pleasantly surprised. They thought that it would be difficult for them to escape the pursuit, and everyone was terrified. Now seeing their army, they knew they were safe.

Jin Wushu was riding on a horse, his body was dirty and in a state of embarrassment. At this moment, dozens of Jurchen nobles rushed towards him on horseback.

The leader was Wan Yanchang, followed by some well-known Jurchen generals.

"Zong Bi, why did you become like this?" Wan Yanchang was also taken aback when he saw Jin Wushu.

Just now he heard that a group of defeated soldiers had arrived, and he was already surprised. He also got the news that the Han cavalry appeared on the grassland before. He guessed that these routs were defeated by the Han cavalry, but he didn't expect that the leader was Wanyan Zongbi, the fourth prince of the Great Jin Kingdom!

"Teacher!" Jin Wushu sighed with a wry smile on his face.

"What happened? Did you encounter the Han cavalry? You were defeated by them? What about your 180,000 troops?" Wan Yanchang asked hastily at this moment.

"We have been fighting since the night before yesterday, especially since yesterday afternoon. We have been attacked by the Han Chinese on both sides, and the 180,000 army has been completely defeated! Now only these 5,000 people have fled here with me." Jin Wushu was extremely ashamed, road.

"What? The 180,000 army was completely defeated? You only have 5,000 people left around you? How is this possible?" Wan Yanchang couldn't believe it.

The Jurchen generals around Wan Yanchang were also unbelievable!

"Where did Han Chang go? Where did Wuyan Puluhun go?" Wan Yanchang asked again.

"Empress Han Changdian, life and death are unknown now! As for Uyan Puluhun, he was killed by a Han soldier! If Uyan Puluhun hadn't been killed by a Han soldier, we wouldn't have been defeated! This damn thing. "Jin Wushu gritted his teeth.

"What's going on? Don't you always say that the Han people are weak? Why are you defeated by such a weak Han people? Don't they have only 30,000 to 40,000 troops? How could they defeat you?" Wan Yanchang said.

"They are not just 30,000 to 40,000 soldiers! They have 80,000 troops!" Although Jin Wushu felt more and more ashamed, he still began to explain.

He explained in great detail, starting from the news of the Huanqing Army the night before yesterday, until he was attacked by Khitan's rout, until he was attacked by two sides, completely defeated, and then he was ambushed all the way until now.

"You mean that half of their soldiers and horses actually detoured from Mayu Mountain? This is impossible! I don't know where Mayu Mountain is. It is densely covered with jungles and snow-capped mountains. It is a place of death. , One or two people with high martial arts skills can come out from there, and tens of thousands of troops will never pass through there." Wan Yanchang said.

"But there is only such an explanation! They passed by there! I don't know why the Han people can do this." Jin Wushu said.

"You said just now that your 80,000 army was fighting against the 30,000 to 40,000 Han Chinese cavalry in front, and you couldn't defeat them? That's impossible! Are the Han Chinese so powerful?" Wan Yanchang said.

"The strength of the Han people is no longer inferior to ours." Jin Wushu said with a wry smile.

After Jin Wushu finished speaking, Wan Yanchang frowned.

Both of them were standing on a high slope at the moment, but the sky was gradually getting dark, and they could no longer see the scene in the distance.

Not long after, there was the sound of horseshoes in the distance, and there were more than a thousand Jurchen and Khitan troops coming towards here.

A moment later, more than 2,000 Jurchen and Khitan troops also arrived from another direction.

These Jurchen and Khitan routs also rushed towards here after hearing the sound of the horn.

"Grand Master, you came with a large army, now go to the west immediately! We should still have a lot of broken soldiers in the west, we need to rescue them all! Moreover, you have such a large army, you should be able to kill the Han people. Defeat them all! The Han people have been fighting with us for so long, and they are extremely exhausted now, they are no match for you!" Jin Wushu said fiercely.

"This..." Wan Yanchang showed a hesitant look on his face.

"Grand Master, we must go west immediately!" Jin Wushu said.

"No! Fourth Prince, just now you said that the Han cavalry is so powerful that we may not be their opponents! Moreover, it is already dark now, and the Han people are good at plotting and tricking. If they lay out plots and tricks in front, our entire army will be wiped out. Then what should we do?" One of Wan Yanchang's subordinates, Chief Wan, stood up and said.

"It's impossible! You came so suddenly, I didn't even get the news, how could the Han people get the news? Grand Master, send troops quickly!" Jin Wushu said.

"I think we still need to be more cautious!" Wan Yanchang said.

At this moment, torches were lit in Wan Yanchang's army, and the surroundings were bright.

Seeing this torch, there were rout troops arriving one after another, and the pursuers of the Forbidden Army and Huanqing Army also came around here. However, the pursuers of the Forbidden Army and the Huanqing Army did not launch an attack on these large armies. They immediately made people pass the news to the back, not to mention.

In fact, a few days ago, Liu Qi had already received news that Wan Yanchang's army was not far from here, and they needed to defeat Jin Wushu in the shortest possible time. The Huan Qing army has been preparing for Wan Yanchang's arrival, and they are not as unprepared as Jin Wushu said.

Jin Wushu was very anxious and kept urging him, but Wan Yanchang was unmoved at all.

Wan Yanchang used his troops cautiously and was unwilling to move forward rashly.

During this night, more and more rout soldiers arrived, there were more than 50,000 people, including more than 20,000 Jurchens, and the rest were savage Jurchen and Khitan rout soldiers.

The Forbidden Army and the Huanqing Army seemed to have stopped that night. They were indeed extremely exhausted after fighting for so long, and it was not yet time to attack Yan Chang's army.

When the sky was getting dark the next day, the Forbidden Army and the Huanqing Army marched towards here, but Wan Yanchang had already led the army to leave here and headed towards the east.

Wan Yanchang was careful at every step. In order to prevent the situation that Jin Wushu encountered before, he marched extremely slowly to avoid surprise attacks. At the end of the day, Wan Yanchang came to Zhongjing City, where there were still 70,000 infantrymen under him, and Wanyanchang's army had all entered Zhongjing City.

*** ***

In the early morning of April 21st, the Forbidden Army and the Huanqing Army also came to the city of Zhongjing.

After a great battle, the Forbidden Army and the Huanqing Army also suffered casualties, especially the Huanqing Army. Before they collided head-on with the Jurchen army, there were many casualties. Now the Forbidden Army and the Huanqing Army combined only have more than 70,000 people.

Soldiers from the Forbidden Army and the Huanqing Army rode on horses and galloped.

And on the city wall of Zhongjing City, Jurchen and Khitan soldiers were standing at the moment.

Wan Yanchang was standing on the west wall, and at the moment he was observing the soldiers of the Forbidden Army and Huanqing Army below.

Jin Wushu and several ten thousand heads stood beside Wan Yanchang.

"Tell me, what about the Han cavalry below?" Wan Yanchang said.

"They are exceptionally powerful, and they are definitely not inferior to our Jurchen elite!" said the elder Wan Fu next to him.

"That's right! I didn't expect the Han people to have such an army of cavalry! It seems that this is the strongest army of the Han people. They sent this army to the grassland to attack us! Zong Bi, you are careless and arrogant. That's why they defeated you." Wan Yanchang looked at Jin Wushu beside him and said.

"Forty thousand of their cavalry passed through Mayu Mountain. This is almost impossible, and no one would have expected it! If I had known that there were so many Han cavalry, I would have been careful!" Jin Wushu said angrily.

"No matter what, you failed! You reduced our Dajin Kingdom's 180,000 troops to only 50,000! Hmph, you're still brazenly standing in front of me." Wan Yanchang said coldly.

Their two political views have always been at odds, and Wan Yanchang has always been dissatisfied with Jin Wushu.

"If you were there, Grand Master, you would surely be defeated." Jin Wushu was ashamed and angry at the same time.

"The Han people have started camping below! They originally entered the grassland on Qingqi, and their supplies were limited, but they conquered Enzhou, and all the supplies you brought, Zong Bi, were taken away by them. Now they don't lack any supplies! Hmph!" Wan Yanchang said coldly again.

"Master, there are only 70,000 to 80,000 Han Chinese, and you have more than 100,000 troops under your command, plus my 50,000 army, we still have more than 200,000 people! Let's rush out and kill all the Han people. !” Jin Wushu said.

"The Han people are all elite! Although you and I have a large number of soldiers and horses, many of them are new Khitan troops. These new Khitan troops are not strong enough. We may not be the opponents of the Han people." Wan Yanchang said lightly. .

"Then what should the grand master do? Are we going to stay in Zhongjing City? We have to go south to assist Zongwang and occupy Guanshan!" Wanyan Zongbi said.

"Guo Yaoshi must have gotten the news, let's wait for Guo Yaoshi!" Wan Yanchang said.

Guo Yaoshi is the famous "General of the Three Dynasties of Liao, Song and Jin Dynasties" in history. He is from Liaodong. After the fall of the Liao Kingdom, Guo Yaoshi surrendered to the Song Dynasty. After the Jurchen invaded, Guo Yaoshi surrendered to the Jurchen and returned to Liaodong. Now Guo Yaoshi has 100,000 resentful troops under his command, with extraordinary combat power. It's just that Guo Yaoshi is a survivor of the former Bohai Kingdom and is not trusted in Jurchen, so this time Jurchen went south and did not call Guo Yaoshi. Now Wan Yanchang has sent someone to notify Guo Yaoshi to go to Zhongjing.

Wan Yanchang was going to wait for Guo Yaoshi to arrive, and together with Guo Yaoshi to defeat the Han Chinese cavalry on the grassland, and then go south.

He has a cautious character and would rather be useless than make mistakes. At this moment, he will never go out of the city to fight against the Forbidden Army and the Huanqing Army. Moreover, Zhongjing City has so many soldiers and horses, he is not afraid of the Han people attacking the city. He estimated that the Han people would not be able to stay on the grassland for long. Although the Han people got the grain, grass and luggage from Enzhou, the number was not very large, and it would only last for ten and a half months at most.
