Chapter 70: What? The Western Army is coming in millions! (Ask for collection, ask for recommendation)

When Yuwen Xuzhong and Zhao Liangsi left Kaifeng Mansion with the will of the official Zhao Ji and went to the camp of the Jin Army in Chenqiaoyi, more than ten horsemen of the Jin soldiers had just arrived here, and they also brought a terrible-sounding news to Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Yan's mother!

There are a million soldiers of the Northwest Forbidden Army of the Great Song Dynasty on their way to Kaifeng Mansion, and they will arrive in half a month at most!

This news was not hearsay, but came from several pieces of music seized by the cavalry of the Jin Army deployed in the west of Kaifeng Prefecture - these pieces were jointly issued by Qian Gai, the general envoy of various provinces in Shaanxi, and the envoy of Gyeonggi and Jingxi, and were carried by more than a dozen cavalry squads of the Western Army (a dozen copies were written) to break through the blockade line of the Jin soldiers. Several of them were lucky enough to break through, some were blocked back by the Jin soldiers, and some fell into the hands of the Jin soldiers, and now they are all sent to the Jin Bing Zhongjun camp in Chen Qiaoyi.

If Qian Gai and Chongshi Dao, the two great officials of the Song State, did not scribble on the chapter, then the Jin soldiers outside Kaifeng Mansion seemed to be in real trouble.

That's a million forbidden troops!

Just a few days ago, Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Yanmu were still wondering that they couldn't find any trace of the 800,000 Great Song Forbidden Army...... Well, now the Northwest Forbidden Army alone has come with a million! There are at least 100,000 forbidden troops in Hebei, and there are probably 100,000 forbidden troops in Kaifeng Prefecture.

That's 1.2 million forbidden troops...... It seems like it's too much!

Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Yanmu did not dare to ignore it, and immediately convened a collective military meeting of Meng'an and above generals in Chenqiaoyi.

I have to discuss it carefully, do you want to accept it when you see it? Let's do it again!

Don't look at the Kaifeng Mansion City has not been broken, the official family of the Great Song Dynasty has not paid, and the Yun King Zhao Kai also cheated and killed Liu Yanzong. But the harvest of the Jindong Route Army is still very impressive!

The surroundings of Kaifeng Mansion are about to be turned into vain by them, and the benefits have already reached millions.

Now to ask for an additional one million from the Great Song Dynasty in the city of Kaifeng, in fact, it is to divide the victory and defeat - if the Great Song Dynasty signed a peace treaty of land cession, payment, and affinity, and also sent the prince and the prime minister as hostages, it would be a complete admission of defeat and resignation.

It was a great blow to the morale of the people in the Great Song Dynasty, and it could also greatly improve the morale of the Jin soldiers.

In addition, the peace agreement between the Jindong Route Army and the Kaifeng Imperial Court could also confuse Zhao Kai in Hebei and make him relax his vigilance. In this way, Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Yan's mother will have the opportunity to give him a ruthless ......

But the problem is that the millions of soldiers in the west also sound a little scary!

"Hmph, what's there to be afraid of? Is it not just more than a million Song soldiers? Don't say that most of them are bluffs, but they are true, and our female Zhenerlang is not afraid of them...... Think that back then, we used 20,000 people to defeat the 700,000 army of the Khitans in Hubu Dagang, and now a Jurchen sonron can't beat him 20 Song people? ”

Speaking is a Meng'an surnamed Su Shilie, forty or fifty years old, with a horizontal face, gray hair and beard, wearing a robe stained with oil, looking sloppy. Looking at him like this, he knows that he must be a character who has followed the old emperor A Gu to fight the horse for half his life.

Although these characters are a bit rough and old, they are gradually withdrawing from the stage of history, but they are still quite reliable when it comes to fighting wars.

"Second brother, is that Laoshzi of the Song people really in the Western Army a million? Most of them are bluffing us! "I don't believe that there are millions of people in the Western Army who are the fourth prince Wanyan Zongbi, who has led the army to attack the city and plunder the city around Kaifeng City these days, and has never seen more than 1,000 regular troops of the Song army.

He smiled contemptuously: "If they really want to be able to pull up a million soldiers, they don't need to transfer any western troops, just the strong men around Kaifeng Mansion will be recruited and sent (one at a time), and the number of millions is not much worse!" But how can there be decent soldiers and horses around Kaifeng City? If you can't even levy the strong men of Kaifeng Mansion, what will you do with the Western Army? It must be a lie! ”

This Wanyan Zongbi looks rough, but in fact it is very detailed, and it is very reasonable to analyze it. Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Yan's mother both nodded again and again, and Zongwang set his eyes on Han Anguo.

Guo Anguo pondered and said: "Second prince, as far as the minister knows, Shaanxi Sixth Road has always been an important place for the Song State to use troops, not only the so-called Western Army, but also Yingtian archers and soldiers. The most serious western army is 200,000, and if you add Yingtian archers and soldiers, there are probably 400,000. And the soldiers of the Song army were all single recruits, and they were soldiers and food, and there was no Ali Xi to follow. If you want to go to war, you will usually temporarily transfer the people and the box army to accompany the expedition and serve as a force service (another name for Ali Xi), if the 400,000 western army is exhausted, plus the accompanying people and the box army, there are not one million but six or seven hundred thousand. ”

Wanyan Zongwang's face became a little solemn, and he asked in a low voice, "Will the Western Army be exhausted?" ”

"I don't know ...... general," Guo Anguo pondered for a moment, "but the surroundings of Kaifeng Mansion are about to turn into white land, how can we support hundreds of thousands of troops?" ”

"That's right!" Wanyan Zongbi slapped his face, "We have already robbed the big cities and towns around Kaifeng Mansion!" And the farmers who farmed also died, and they ran away, or they were plundered by us, and the land around Kaifeng Mansion was deserted...... What did the Song people take to feed their million Western troops? However, what we have in our hands is grain and grass, and it is enough to eat here in Chenqiaoyi for two years!

If there are really millions of Western troops, then we will consume military rations with them, and I don't believe that they can't consume it! ”

Wanyan Yan's mother was already moved by Zong Bi's words, and turned her head to look at Zong Wang: "What the second prince, the fourth prince and Han Anguo said makes sense...... We are not afraid of even a million Western soldiers, even if there are real ones, and there are some that can be beaten! ”

Wanyan Zongwang nodded lightly and said, "The Western Army of the Song people is indeed not very fearful...... Let's just wait for them in Kaifeng Mansion! ”

He thought for a while, and then said: "If the Song Dynasty officials in the city of Kaifeng Mansion are willing to agree to our conditions, then let Kaifeng Mansion go for the time being, and go to find the bad luck of Zhao Kai, the king of Yun, first." If Zhao Ji doesn't agree to our conditions, then we will compete with his western army. It doesn't matter if they have millions or not, they are not our opponents in short! ”

As soon as Zong Wang's words came to this, a voice came from outside: "The commander of the capital, the second prince, and the envoy of the Song people have arrived outside Chenqiaoyi!" ”

Zong Wang laughed and said, "It seems that Zhao Ji is still afraid of us...... Meet them and hear what they have to say! ”

......

"A million Western Army? Qian Gai and the Seed Master Dao can really blow it! ”

On the day after Wanyan Zongwang and others learned that "the Western Army is coming in one million", Zhao Ji, an official in Kaifeng Prefecture, also received a joint signature of Qian Gai and Seed Master Dao, and the content of this recital was exactly the same as the content of the recital that fell into the hands of Jin Bing.

However, Zhao Ji didn't believe it at all when he said that there were "millions of Western soldiers...... The elite of the serious Western Army has either been consumed in recent years, or scattered everywhere, and the old and weak and Yingtian archers of the Duxi Army (Forbidden Army) who are still left on the Sixth Road in Shaanxi may have more than 300,000 on the books. Only God knows the real numbers?

But it is impossible for these people to leave Shaanxi, otherwise Shaanxi will be taken away by the thieves! Moreover, it is impossible for that poor place in Shaanxi to provide logistical supplies for the expedition of more than 300,000 troops!

For a long time, the expenses of the Shaanxi army have been transferred to the Central Plains and the southeast, but it is difficult!

Now the Central Plains and the southeast are unable to help Shaanxi, and those western troops (including archers) are afraid that it will be difficult to even eat and drink, and they can squeeze out 180,000 elite soldiers to the east, which is already very loyal.

If a million really come...... Zhao Ji will have more headaches than now!

Now the two or three hundred thousand forbidden troops, box soldiers, and people in Kaifeng Mansion have spent money like water!

Moreover, there are more than a million mouths (many of whom have fled from outside Kaifeng Prefecture) to consume the limited grain stored in Kaifeng Prefecture.

If a million more people come...... Zhao Ji still gave way to his son and ran away to Jiangnan to enjoy the blessings.
