Chapter 59: The Situation Has Changed


In the end, Wu Ting, who had been standing for a long time in the cold wind and heavy snow, was the first to retreat.

He had no choice but to lead his troops back to the camp.

Before, he couldn't even break through Tongguan where the Jin soldiers were stationed.

How could he conquer Tongguan now with the help of new firearms?

Not to mention how to straighten the relationship between Qin and the new Han State.

His father, Wu Lin, had not even thought about it yet. clear.

It was inconvenient for him to confront the Han army rashly.

Seeing the Qin soldiers retreating, Yue Yun turned around and said to the generals behind him: "From now on, the entire army will rest in Tongguan and be on alert.

As soon as the next batch of supplies from the rear arrives, we will raid the Qin soldiers' camp and attack They were caught off guard and went straight to Jingzhao to complete the mission assigned to us by our father. " New Year's Eve was approaching in a blink of an eye.

Wu Ting saw that there was no point in letting more than 10,000 troops camp in front of Tongguan to freeze in the cold, so he withdrew his troops and returned to Jingzhao to celebrate the New Year.

He left only three thousand men and horses to guard the camp and monitor the movements of the Han army east of Tongguan.

The Han army's grain, grass, ammunition and other supplies were also delivered to Tongguan at this time.

Yue Yun planned to launch an unexpected attack during the Spring Festival and capture Jingzhao in one fell swoop.

In the General's Mansion in Tongguan, Yue Yun was making arrangements for the march in the lobby.

A soldier came to report that an edict from Bianliang had arrived.

Yue Yun took the letter, opened it and read it carefully.

Then, he said to the generals present: "This time the deployment of the march to Jingzhao has been cancelled.

Because the situation has changed, in the south, the pseudo-Song Dynasty under the banner of the former Song Dynasty recently launched a large-scale invasion of our Jinghu North area.

Niu Gaona In addition to dealing with their attack, we also have to guard against the puppet Qin's eastward advance across the barren mountainous areas in Xiazhou and Xianghan, so our troops are insufficient.

My father ordered me to go south to Jinghu to support the Niugao tribe."

Yao Zhen asked: "Who will take over Tongguan?"

"You and these five thousand soldiers will be stationed at Tongguan, waiting for my father to mobilize troops to replace the defense.

I will go to Runan first.

There is a new national defense army camp there, and more than ten thousand new recruits have been trained."

"Then Jingzhao won't fight anymore."

"We won't fight for the time being.

Father said we just need to hold on to Tongguan.

It will be a matter of course to capture Jingzhao in the future."

It was spring time again, and Wan Yanliang had already returned to Yanjing, the central capital, while Wan Yanyong was transferred to Xijing to take charge of affairs in Hedong and Shaanxi.

During the Spring Festival, Yue Yun led 10,000 new troops to Ezhou and drove the main force of the puppet Song Dynasty to the south of Yueyang again.

Throughout the spring, Yue Fei was mobilizing his troops.

The 20,000 Guards and 30,000 National Defense Forces participating in the Northern Expedition have been deployed along the Yellow River.

Large amounts of grain, ammunition, arrows, and soldiers were also continuously sent to various assembly points along the Yellow River.

The newly formed internal affairs armies in various prefectures and counties are also practicing day and night, and even the regiment training militiamen in various townships and towns are taking advantage of the slack season before spring sowing to practice their troops and horses.

At the same time, a large number of Jurchens left their hometown in the Northeast and moved to Hebei and Hedong.

After these Jurchens came to the new land, they seized a large amount of land from the original residents, including the land of the Han people and the Khitan Shatuo people.

This led to more ethnic conflicts.

A large number of landless farmers and landlords went to the Taihang Mountains to join Liang Xing's loyal Red Turban Army.

The Spring Festival has long passed, but the sound of "firecrackers" can still be heard from time to time in the old camp of the Zhongyi Army in Taihang Mountain.

This was actually the sound of an arquebus firing.

Since the last time the generals of the Zhongyi Army met with Yue Fei in Bianliang, Yue Fei allocated thousands of obsolete old-fashioned muskets from the Han army, as well as bows and crossbows and old armor to the various villages of the Zhongyi Army.

The Loyalty Army trained thousands of musketeers in just two to three months.

The sound of the horn sounded, and the soldiers of the Loyal Rebel Army who were practicing in the school field gathered towards the Juyi Hall in the middle of the village.

The three long tables in the Juyi Hall were filled with wine and food.

There are also hundreds of Eight Immortals tables placed in the open square outside.

Liang Xing saw that all his generals had arrived, and the loyal soldiers in various colors also gathered in the open space outside the hall.

Then he walked up to the flag stand, clasped his fists and saluted those around him, and said loudly: "Brothers, your Majesty will soon send out a large-scale army to cross the river to attack Hebei.

The time has come for us to serve the country and repay your kindness.

The time has come for us to avenge our father's death and seize his wife's land, and to attack the golden captives.

All brothers, After drinking this bowl of wine given by the emperor, we will launch a large-scale and comprehensive attack on the Jin soldiers' townships, counties, and states to coordinate with the imperial army's frontal attack.

After saying that, he took the big bowl handed by the guard next to him and drank it all in one gulp.

Thousands of people present also held wine bowls and drank all the wine in one gulp.

In Xiezhuang, Linzhang County, Daming Prefecture, in the courtyard of a mansion.

A bald man with braided hair was lying on a rocking chair, lazily bathing in the spring sunshine.

He was originally a Mouke centurion in the Changbai Mountains.

Under the order of the financial lord Wanyan Dan, he moved south with the entire Mouke army here.

In addition to the thousand acres of fertile land distributed by the Jin Kingdom government, he also seized thousands of acres of farmland from the Han people.

In addition to him, the most common Jurchens in Muke also obtained dozens of acres of land.

Therefore, most of the Jurchens broke away from production and made income by renting to landless Han tenant farmers.

"Master Gu Lijia, all the land has been released this year.

There are fifty-nine households of tenant farmers.

This is the list.

Please take a look at it."

A Han steward with triangular eyes smiled and handed over a green letter.

The paper was handed over.

Gu Lijia just took a puff of dry cigarette, coughed violently, and said: "Damn, I'm still not used to smoking Han people's stuff and renting things.

Just take care of it, don't show it to me.

It's not like you don't know. , I can’t read Chinese.”

After saying that, he slumped down on the rocking chair and rocked back and forth leisurely.

Suddenly, he seemed to remember something again, and said to Triangle Eyes: "Sir, what are you doing with the concubine thing that I want to do?

If you can't do it, I will send a few people to the west of the village to snatch that girl away, so you don't have to do this.

Long-winded.

Triangle Eyes said hurriedly: "Don't worry, sir, the news has been passed on.

This matter will be taken care of by the younger one.

If Mr.

Li doesn't agree, the younger one will also kidnap his daughter."

"Yeah" Gu Lijia snorted with satisfaction.

Seeing that Triangle Eyes didn't mean to leave, he asked, "Do you have anything else?"

Triangle Eyes responded: "Master Qi, I recently heard that the bandits in the Taihang Mountains are making trouble, and I hope that I can be prepared for the contingency."

Gu Lijia snorted coldly and said: "You have been my slave for so many years.

You don't know that in Baishan and Heishui, my master and I were able to defeat thousands of Liao troops with a few hundred warriors.

These weaklings are taking dung.

How can I be afraid of the Han people who are using their hoes?

There are three hundred households of old Jurchens and hundreds of young men in Xiezhuangdong Village alone.”

After a pause, he continued: "What's more, my eldest son is commanding the elite Meng'an troops in Linzhang County.

If bandits really come, he can arrive with thousands of horses under his command in half a day.

Besides, we are so far away.

The Taihang Mountains are very far away.

I don’t believe that the Taihang bandits traveled so far
