Rebirth: Overthrow Song Dynasty

An army of 180,000 Jurchen entered the Taihang Mountains!

At the beginning, the road was still open, and the Jurchens could still gallop on horses!

After walking for less than half a day, the road started to be rough, with weeds and rocks everywhere. Under such circumstances, the Jurchens had no choice but to get off their horses and move forward.

"The mountain peaks here are endless, I don't know when I will be able to go out!" Wan Yan Lou Shi said.

"As long as you go all the way, you will be able to go out! Since ancient times, there have been many armies crossing from Hedong to Hebei, or from Hebei to Hedong! In the earliest time, Han Xin's battle of Jingxing was to fight the enemy through Taihang. Cao Cao also once Leading the army through the Taihang, and wrote down the bitter cold journey." Wanyan Zongwang said.

This Wanyan Zongwang is extremely proficient in the Central Plains culture, and he is indeed the best among the Jurchens.

The battle of Jingxing he mentioned was the last years of the Qin Dynasty. Han Xin only led tens of thousands of troops from Hedong to Hebei, and fought hundreds of thousands of Zhao troops at Jingxingkou in Taihang Mountain. , Forward and reverse use, defeated Zhao Jun, and established Liu Bang's hegemony!

As for Cao Cao's bitter cold journey, it was Cao Cao who traveled through Taihang to hunt down Gao Gan, Yuan Shao's nephew. He led the army through the famous Yangchangban Road in Taihang Mountain and wrote this poem.

The ancient Taihang Mountain is different from the Taihang Mountain of the later generations. There are no roads or railways extending in all directions in the later generations. There are only small roads and mountain roads!

In the middle of the night, the rain continued, but the Jurchen army couldn't find a place to rest.

They just keep going.

The mountains on both sides became more and more steep, and in the end, they were almost walking in a line of sky.

The sky was dark, and although some soldiers were lighting torches, the torches were often extinguished by the rain.

Wanyan Zongwang walked ahead, feeling extremely vigilant in his heart.

At this moment, a rumbling voice suddenly came from behind. Wanyan Zongwang was startled when he heard this voice.

"What happened?" he shouted.

There was a faint scream in the distance, and the Jurchen soldiers behind frantically came forward.

"Your Highness, some rocks fell, and many soldiers died!" A commander rushed to Wanyan Zongwang and said.

"Damn it! Go save people immediately!" Wanyan Zongwang said loudly.

Just as he finished speaking, another rock fell from above, and another rumbling sound shook all directions.

"Your Highness, it may be because of the rain, there are a lot of rocks falling down, let's leave quickly!" the commander said.

Wanyan Zongwang gritted his teeth, he couldn't care less about the soldiers behind him at this moment, so he could only move forward quickly! If such a rock falls, no matter how good his martial arts are, he may only have a dead end. He is not willing to die in vain here!

Fortunately, the rumbling voice gradually stopped, and Wanyan Zongwang heaved a sigh of relief!

The 180,000 army stretched for more than ten miles, and the mountains on both sides finally became flat, and the Jurchens cheered.

"How many people were killed or injured?" Wanyan Zongwang asked.

"More than a thousand people died." The commander said.

"A thousand sons died here for nothing. They could have killed ten thousand or more Han Chinese!" Wanyan Zongwang felt very heartbroken!

"Your Highness, the Taihang Mountain is too difficult to travel, these things are unavoidable!" said Qianfu.

"Our son died because of the persecution of the Han people. The Han people really deserve to die! When the day comes, I will definitely lead the army back, sweep the Han people, seize all the land of the Han people, and enslave all the Han people!" Wanyan Zongwang gritted his teeth.

They continued on in the mountains without resting all night.

Now they are walking on the famous Jingxing Road in the Eight Xings of Taihang! Taihang Eight Xing, including the eight roads from Hedong to Hebei, Yanyun, and Henan, is the Jingxing Road from Niangziguan.

The next day, the rain finally stopped and the sun came out!

The Jurchens have been marching in the rain for many days, and their bodies are covered with mud, and they are also filthy at this moment.

Originally, this kind of filth was nothing, but the Jurchens enjoyed wealth and honor for these years, but now it is a bit unbearable.

In the afternoon, a small river appeared in front of them, and the Jurchens cheered again.

Numerous Jurchens dismounted from their horses, and they ran to the small river, where they drank and washed.

Even Wanyan Zongwang got off his horse and came to the small river.

A soldier handed over a towel, and Wanyan Zongwang was wiping his body, but at this moment, figures swayed in the grass on the opposite side, and countless bows and arrows shot towards here.

"Damn it!" Wanyan Zongwang was taken aback, he stood up hastily and dodged an arrow!

However, not everyone was as skilled in martial arts as he was. Many of the Jurchen soldiers who were washing up screamed and fell to the ground.

"Chase! We must catch up with those people! They are Han bandits in the Taihang Mountains! Catch up with them and tear them to pieces!" Wanyan Zongwang said angrily.

At that moment, countless Jurchens rode back on their horses, and they headed towards the other side of the river.

The soldiers of the rebel army on the opposite side had fled towards the distance one after another at this moment, and the Jurchens were closely chasing after them.

It's just that this is in the middle of a mountain, and the rebel soldiers kept climbing towards the mountain. In the end, the Jurchens could only dismount and chase after them!

The rebel soldiers are very familiar with Taihang Mountain. They have lived here for many years, but the Jurchen soldiers don't know anything about it. Half an hour later, they lost the rebel soldiers. down the hill.

"The enemy has killed more than two hundred of us, yet we haven't caught a single enemy! These pig-like Han Chinese, what else are you going to do besides being cunning?" Wanyan Zongwang was extremely angry.

"Your Highness, these Han bandits are really cunning! But their combat strength is average, and their strength is extremely limited. At most, they harass us. We just need to be careful!" Wanyan Lou said.

Two years ago, when the Guanshan side attacked Xixia, in order to contain the Jurchens, the Hedong Rebel Army aggressively attacked the Hedong Prefecture. At that time, Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Loushi personally led the army to sweep. These tens of thousands of people are hiding in the depths of the Taihang Mountains. In the past, they dared not come out. Now that the Jurchen army passed by their territory, they dared to come out to harass them.

In any case, it is difficult for the Hedong Rebel Army to cause too many casualties to them, so the strength of each other is too different.

"I'm still very uncomfortable! I hate the Han people so much now! They were supposed to be our Jurchens' slaves, and now these slaves dare to resist, it's ridiculous! They think our Jurchens are really at the end of their rope? Hey, We just encountered some minor setbacks! When I arrive in Hebei, I will settle accounts with the Han people!" Wanyan Zongwang gritted his teeth.

"That's right, the Han people should be the slaves of our Jurchens, or the Khitan and Xixia people. The land of the Central Plains is like a piece of fat, and we Jurchens will eat this piece of fat sooner or later!" Wanyan Lou said. .

"Our soldiers didn't rest yesterday, let them rest today, and then continue on their way." Wanyan Zongwang said.

At present, the Jurchen army is resting in the mountains.

Autumn came, and it was very cold in the deep mountains. These Jurchens huddled against each other, some with their war horses, and fell into deep sleep.

It's just that Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Loushi were cautious and still sent thousands of people to guard the surroundings. If there was any change in the surroundings, they would immediately wake up the soldiers. Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Loushi also kept vigil one after another, worried about encountering accidents.

Fortunately, this night passed safely.

In the early morning of the third day, the Jurchen army headed east again.

It is an autumn scene in the deep mountains, with fallen leaves flying and hoarfrost on the ground.

Along the way, they often saw wild animals.

The road on this day is also very difficult, sometimes it is a narrow path, and sometimes it suddenly opens up.

Wanyan Zongwang sent more than 500 people to scout the way ahead.

The more than five hundred people rode their horses and galloped. At this moment, there was a loud noise, and the horses in front stepped into a huge pit one after another. Suddenly, people turned their backs on their backs, and there were screams everywhere! The people behind couldn't hold the horse, and some fell into the deep pit.

After Wanyan Zongwang got the news, he was furious again, not to mention that.

On the fourth day, they encountered no ambush.

On the morning of the fifth day, when the Jurchen army was marching forward, the army of more than 10,000 people behind was suddenly besieged by the Hedong rebels!

It turned out that the Hedong Rebel Army organized more than 30,000 people to rush down from the jungle on the mountain suddenly to attack the Jurchen army!

When the Jurchen army in front reacted and came towards the back, those rebel soldiers had already evacuated here at an extremely fast speed, and the Jurchens chased for half a day without chasing the rebel soldiers!

In the middle of the night of the fifth day, when the Jurchens were sleeping, another thousand rebels attacked them! It's just that the Jurchens were wary this time, so the thousand rebels didn't take advantage of it.

On the sixth day, the Jurchens were once again attacked by a huge falling rock from the mountain, but this time it was thrown from the mountain by rebel soldiers! Wanyan Zongwang sent people to hunt him down, but unfortunately he still couldn't find the rebel soldiers!

On the seventh day, the Jurchens walked halfway, and the road ahead was blocked. It took the Jurchens two hours to open the road ahead! Later in the afternoon, they were attacked by fire! The weeds on the mountain were half withered and yellow, the fire was not big, but the smoke was so huge that countless Jurchens fainted from the smoke!

Day after day, the ambushes continued, and the Jurchens walked for twelve days before they saw the plain ahead!

Arriving here, Wanyan Zongwang heaved a sigh of relief.

"We finally came out! Hebei is ahead!" Wanyan Zongwang said happily.

"On this road, more than 20,000 of us died!" Wan Yan Lou Shi said.

"There are so many dead?" Wanyan Zongwang couldn't believe it.

"They harass every day, more than a thousand people die every day, sometimes even more! Our morale is very bad now!" Wanyan Lou said.

"Tell them, we have arrived in Hebei! Now Hebei is still under our control, and only a small group of Song troops from the south have entered! There are hundreds of thousands of Liu Yu's troops in the Shandong area! We still occupy many places in the Central Plains, still Enslaving countless Han Chinese, there are still Han Chinese troops who are willing to be our lackeys. We will soon be able to open the road from Hebei to Yanyun. When our army rushes from Liaodong and the grasslands, that is when we will defeat all the Song troops. The cunning Song army, they only relied on surprise raids in the south of the Yangtze River, so they have such a situation, their strength is still far behind ours!" Wanyan Zongwang laughed.

Wanyan Loushi nodded, and began to comfort the soldiers, soon waves of cheers came from the Jurchen army.

"Jingxing County is ahead, and there are still 10,000 of our garrisons there! There are still our garrisons around the Daming Mansion, and there are countless grains and grass. I want to go there as soon as possible!" Wanyan Zongwang secretly said.
