Chapter 140: Recovering Lin Ji
After the Jin soldiers were all killed, the mountain king with a spear came over and saluted Zhao Tan and said: "Zhao Tizhi, people are late to help, please punish him!" ”
Zhao Tan smiled bitterly and said, "If it weren't for the Lord of Wenzhai to come here, I would have been dead for a long time, how could I still blame Lord Wenzhai!" ”
Zhao Tan helped Wen Zhongrong up, and then looked at Zhao Zhen, he looked at Zhao Zhen just now, he was familiar with Zhao Zhen, but in the melee, he couldn't see it clearly, he looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but shout: "Your Highness!" It's you? ”
Zhao Zhen smiled slightly, and said, "Wenquan, it's here that you are alone." Calling Zhao Tan's words, Zhao Tan was still a little puzzled, but he couldn't help but have no doubts, walked over quickly, knelt down for Zhao Zhen, and shouted: "Your Highness!" The voice was weeping, and it was about to drip blood.
Zhao Zhen pulled Zhao Tan up, sighed and said, "I didn't expect our monarchs and ministers to have a day of meeting." While introducing Zhao Tan to Yang Zhi, Pang Yi and others.
Zhao Tan greeted everyone one by one here, but Wen Zhongrong stood there in fear, looking at Zhao Tan to see the salute, and then said: "Tizhi, this is ......?" ”
Zhao Tan said: "This is me and you have to believe in Wang Zhao Zhen, and I haven't come to see him." ”
Wen Zhongrong was surprised and surprised, hurriedly came over to salute, and said: "Cao Min Wen Zhongrong has seen His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness killed Hu and escaped, led troops to break the Kou, and was famous, people have long heard your name like thunder, I didn't expect to see a real person today." ”
Zhao Zhen laughed, pulled Wen Zhongrong up, and said: "Master Wenzhai, you can't be so polite, we all escaped from Xiangzhou and want to defect to you." ”
Wen Zhongrong said with some surprise: "How can Your Highness say this?" He heard that Zhao Zhen led an army of 100,000 to besiege the Daimyo's Mansion, why did he come to his cottage for so long.
Zhao Zhen smiled bitterly, and invited Qiao Daoqing to Xiangzhou, but was blocked by Jin Bing, and he couldn't go back, Wen Zhongrong couldn't help patting his chest and said: "Your Highness doesn't have to worry, although the village is a village, it can also be settled, and the money and food are enough to be used for a period of time." ”
During their conversation, Tang Bin urged the horse to go back early and picked up Zhu Wu and them, but Wen Zhongrong recognized Zhu Wu, and his words became more cordial.
A few people sat on the ground here, Wen Zhongrong's minions cleaned up the dead, and then took out dry food for Zhao Tan's people to eat, Zhao Tan held a piece of bread and sighed, and said, "We haven't eaten a little food for three years." ”
Pang Yi said suddenly: "No wonder you can't move, people are iron, rice is steel, and you can't stand it if you don't eat a meal." ”
Zhu Wu said: "Then how did Zhao Tizhi lose Lin Xi?" ”
Zhao Tan sighed and said: "It's a long story, half a month ago, I received an order from Zhizhou Liu Darao, asking me to raise troops to suppress Longxi Mountain, I didn't dare not listen, so I ordered Lin Xi's three hundred Xiang troops and five hundred native soldiers to go to Longxi Mountain, the Wenzhai master's cottage is also a bit of a scale, I fought for a few days and couldn't take it down, when I had a headache, the Wenzhai master personally sent someone to see me, as long as he let him resist Jin, he was willing to surrender ....... ”
Zhao Tan paused here and looked towards Wen Zhongrong.
Wen Zhongrong said hatefully: "I have an elder brother, who lives in the north, a few days ago his fellow villagers fled south, and threw himself into my village, listening to him My brother saw the Jin soldiers going south, only afraid of being involved in the military disaster, so the family took a thin soft, ready to go south, who would have thought that halfway to the road, he was beaten by the Jin soldiers and he had property on his body, so he beat his grass valley, killed his family, and also defiled my sister-in-law, I have one or two places with these dogs, three rivers and four seas, naturally I don't want to fight that useless battle with Zhao Tishi, That's why they offered to surrender. ”
Zhao Tan said: "Originally, I still suspected that the lord of Wenzhai was really descending or false, but at this time, the capital court ordered to transfer our army to Xiangzhou, I didn't dare to stay, so I should first accept the lord of Wenzhai, let him temporarily stay in Longxi Cottage, rectify himself, wait for my news, and then I came to Xiangzhou with soldiers and horses, I didn't expect to leave Lin Xian, and the Jin soldiers didn't know where to kill it, the general of the army was called Chu Mingyu, and he also took the arrow of the order of the Yamen, so he opened the gate of Linshu County and occupied it!" ”
Zhu Wu shook his head and said, "It seems that none of the orders you received were given to you by the Yamen of the Jiedu Envoy." Seeing that Zhao Tan was a little suspicious, he pointed at Liu Tang and said, "The eldest prince of Liu Duyuan is here, if you don't believe it, come and ask him." ”
Zhao Tan really looked at Liu Tang, Liu Tang's face was ugly, but he still replied: "My father has never ordered your men and horses to gather in Xiangzhou, even Tangyin County is so close, and my father relies on Yue Fei so much, and he has not transferred him to Xiangzhou to garrison, how can I transfer your men and horses." ”
"That'...... That will take ....... Zhao Tan was shocked and angry, and shouted in disbelief.
Zhu Wu talked about Liu Yanshou again, and then said: "With Liu Yanshou's status, he gave you an order to leave the county seat and go to Longshu Mountain, which is his blatant conspiracy, and no one can stop it, and transferring you back to Xiangzhou, and Jin Bing taking the order of the Jiedu Envoy Yamen to open the county seat, it should also be his handiwork, and he must get the order of the Jiedu Envoy Yamen, and it is not difficult for him to come." ”
Zhao Tan couldn't help but be so angry that he couldn't stop pounding the stone with his fist, and shouted: "If it weren't for that, Lin Xianyan would have lost!" ”
Liu Tang only felt that Zhao Tan was scolding him, his face was feverish, and his eyes were full of fire, so he said: "Zhao Tizhi rest assured, I will not let them go in the future, and I will definitely clean up this portal for my Liu family!" ”
Zhao Zhen said again: "Wenquan, what about your soldiers and horses?" ”
Zhao Tan was sad, and said: "I heard that Lin Xi was lost, so I led the troops back, but I didn't expect the Jin army to be prepared, first burned my grain and grass, and then pestered me all the way to fight, no matter which direction I advanced, they will always send a hundred cavalry troops, just around me to attack, with their bows and arrows, kill and wound my subordinates, I was forced to endure for three days, to this day, only this little bit of men and horses remains, if I don't see that something is wrong, I will send someone to ask for help from the master of Wenzhai, with this thought, we will not be able to hold on." ”
Zhao Zhen couldn't help but punch the stone with hatred, and said, "The traitor has misled the country!" ”
Zhu Wu groaned for a while, and said, "Zhao Tizhi, have you inquired, what did those Jin soldiers who attacked along the road do afterwards?" Did I follow you all the way, or did I go back to Linshu County? ”
Zhao Tan said: "I also sent people to visit, the first few times when they suffered heavy casualties, they all went back to Linshu County, otherwise a few teams of men and horses chased in turn, and they didn't tell me to be quiet." ”
Zhu Wu smiled and said, "The Jin people have prepared a big gift for me." Wan pointed to the corpses of those golden soldiers and said, "It's on these Rao." Everyone was puzzled, so they all looked at Zhu Wu, Zhu Wu smiled, and everyone couldn't help but shout in unison: "Sure enough, it's a divine machine military division, so calculating!" "Dress up and act according to the plan.
Under the lonely moon, Zhao Tan's team of wounded soldiers walked with difficulty, and they went to school in the direction of Longxi Mountain
After walking for less than half an hour, suddenly there was a sound of horses' hooves, and the Bailai elite rider rushed over as if he had fallen from above, heading towards Zhao Tan's lone army.
Zhao Tan's lone soldier heard the sound of horses' hooves, and without waiting for orders, he fell to the ground together, and tore a straw futon from his chest, covered his body, and the arrows on the opposite side shot like locusts, all of which were shot on the futon, and no one was shot.
The Jin soldiers on the opposite side did not react immediately, and after the two rounds of arrows were shot in the air, they brandished their long knives and rushed towards Zhao Tan's lone army, and seeing that they were about to rush, the leading Zan Quanmei shouted: "!" "The soldiers who lay down immediately pulled up the tripping horse, they lay just right, two by two, the moment they lay down, the tripping rope was divided into two sides to be prepared, this will be pulled up violently, the Jin soldiers who rushed over in front of the horse, followed by the back of the tripping to the front of the body, also fell to the ground, chain falling, nearly half of the lie down, this stopped, and the Song army on the ground has already gotten up, so he rushed towards the Jin soldiers, and at the same time followed by Tang Bin with a hundred horses rushed over to respond, but a while, and slaughtered all those golden soldiers to the ground.
Tang Bin urged the horse to Zan Quanmei and said, "How many times is this?" ”
Zan Quanmei stretched out his hand and said, "This is the fourth batch." ”
Tang Bin said: "Listen to Zhao Tan, there are only five or six groups of people, when we Zhao Tan met, we destroyed one group, and now we have destroyed four groups, it should be about the same, it is better to go to Lin Xian." ”
Zan Quanmei was also annoyed, so he nodded and said, "Okay, let's go now, although the credit is not good, it's good to see the excitement." "At the moment when the two soldiers are united, they are coming towards Lin Ji.
Just when Tang Bin and Zan Quanmei came towards Lin Xi, a team of golden soldiers with blood stains on their bodies swayed to the city of Lin Shu, and the first one shouted to the city: "Brother above, open the door, we are the team chasing Zhao Tan, we have suffered heavy losses, and we have come back to rest." ”
The golden soldiers in the city hung up the lanterns and looked down carefully, and recognized that it was their partner in the front row, so they said, "Wait!" "After finishing it, I went down to Kaecheng, and the suspension bridge was also lowered, they were used to playing the Great Song Dynasty, and they had never met any opponents, so they didn't have such a heart.
It was Zhao Zhen who shouted, only he knew the truth, others did not have this ability, seeing the city gate open, Zhao Zhen rushed towards the suspension bridge, Yang Zhi was worried and hurriedly followed, the two monarchs and ministers almost went to Liu Bridge together, divided into one left and one right, and at the same time waved the knife towards the iron cable, the two treasure knives worked together, clicked, the sound was like a sound, and the iron chain of the suspension bridge was broken.
Zhu Wutie pointed forward and shouted, "Rush me!" Pang Yi and Zhao Tan rushed over first, and the two knives killed the Jin soldiers guarding the city gate, and led the military horses to rush in.
As soon as they rushed into the city, the soldiers followed Zhu Wu's instructions and shouted all over the city with the Jurchen Chinese language taught by Zhao Zhen: "Zhao Tizhi invited the elite soldiers of the capital to come back, and all the people listened, my Great Song Dynasty has recaptured the county seat!" ”
The entire county town of Lin Xi was shouted, but very few people came out, so that the Jin soldiers were scared out, and they didn't know whether it was true or not, and they only felt that there were a lot of soldiers and horses on the other side in the night, and they had no intention of fighting, so they fled from the opposite city gate.
Pang Yi took the lead, and he killed the county yamen, and the golden general Chu Mingyu was sleeping with the snatched Han girl in his arms, and when he heard the scream, he was so frightened that half of his soul was gone, and he hurriedly got up, and he didn't wear all his clothes and armor, so he rode a horse out of the county yamen, and shouted: "Where is the Song army, where is the Song army!" ”
Pang Yi happened to be killed, and responded loudly: "Song Jun is here!" With a knife in the past, Chu Mingyu was split with the back of the slanted shoulder strap, and then lifted half of his body with his head, and galloped around, the Jin army had no main general, and ran faster, in less than an hour, the battle was over, the Jin soldiers ran and died, and a few were caught by the people in the city, and they were bitten to death.
Zhao Zhen and the others arrived at the main street of the county seat, looking at the three Jingguan piled up there, they couldn't help but look cold, this golden soldier only entered the city for three times, and killed 30,000 people.
"Pass me the order!" Zhao Zhen looked at those Jingguan and said word by word: "All the golden people, all of them are killed, and they don't want a single mouth!" Pang Qiuxia, who was acting as a herald beside him, trembled slightly, and then passed the order down, under this order, after the battle, there was not a single prisoner, and the city was full of the corpses of Jin soldiers.
Zhao Tan arrested the magistrate of Lin Shu County, the lord Bo or something, and knelt down in front of Zhao Zhen, and said: "Your Highness, these Jin soldiers surrendered as soon as they entered the city, this is not counted, they also helped Jin Bing to loot, this Hu Zhixian is the most shameless, that Chu Mingyu fell in love with his sister, he actually killed his brother-in-law and dedicated his sister to Chu Mingyu." ”
Zhao Zhen's face was cold, so he picked up the head of the county commander with a knife, and said, "When you surrendered to the thief, did you ever think about it?" ”
The county commander was so frightened that he trembled, and he didn't know what Zhao Zhen was from, but he kept shouting: "Spare your life, spare your life!" ”
Zhao Zhen snorted coldly and said to Wen Zhongrong: "Lord Wenzhai, I heard that you are in the green forest, and you have your own disposal of those traitors, I am now in your mountain gate, and I can be regarded as a person in the green forest, then these people will be dealt with according to the rules of the green forest, please take action yourself." ”
Wen Zhongrong smiled hideously and said, "Your Highness, don't worry, with me Wen Zhongrong to ambush them, I will never let them be cheap." "When Wen Zhongrong let people bring those dog officials to the most lively part of the county, gather the people in the city, and then personally handle the knife and unload it into more than a dozen large pieces, the people didn't dare to do anything before, but later saw that it was really killing, and couldn't help crying and scolding, and beat and smashed at those dog officials, snatched the meat and bit it with their mouths, in order to vent their hatred, the gold soldiers in this city are too bitter for them, and these dog officials who defected to the enemy and treason, with the momentum of the golden soldiers, the fox and the tiger are powerful, and they hate them to the bones.
Zhu Wu took the people to the county government warehouse, and saw that the money and grain had not been transported away as he guessed, so he immediately asked people to load most of the cars, and some of them were directly pushed to the street, allowing others to take them for themselves, and at the same time persuaded the people in the city to leave Lin Xi as soon as possible.
The people in the city have long harbored a hatred, but no one took it, did not dare to do it, now see Zhao Tan back, take the silver and ask to be a soldier for revenge, Zhu Wu did not refuse, only from night to dawn, he recruited three thousand young people, and after they persuaded most of the people in the city away, they took the army out of Lin Xi, and Tang Bin and Zan Quanmei outside the county, and went to Longxi Mountain.
