Chapter 6: Calling for help
The sergeant came in and whispered a few words in Zhang Xian's ear. Zhang Xian nodded and passed the words to Wang Song.
"What...... Zhe Yanxiu, a niece and granddaughter who can be sought! The Jin people invaded Shaanxi, the Jinning army was broken, and Sun Ang was killed......"
Wang Song shook his head. In the area of intelligence, Shaanxi once again lagged behind.
It is no wonder that the Jurchens control the north of Taiyuan City, and the Zhekeqiu and Western Army control the northeast of Shaanxi.
If you want to use troops in Western Xia, you must first occupy Shaanxi.
As for the Western Army, it depends on whether Zhang Jun can arouse the last blood of the Western Army.
"Xianggong, it's better not to see it, drive this messenger out!"
Ma Kuo's face immediately changed, and the past seemed to be vivid again.
"Xianggong, if it weren't for the fact that he could sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, how could Xianggong end up like this?"
Niu Gao also changed color, and said angrily: "The court talks about merit, and it is possible to seek great merit, but he has not said a good word to the court, and even almost died, and he was also accused of "Miao Chou". People are unpredictable, and it's better to see each other! ”
Wang Song was stunned for a long time, and the situation of the past appeared in front of him, and his heart was slightly sour.
"The country is greater than the family, and the public is greater than the private, so I ordered to go down and bring the family in."
When the woman came in, the generals in the hall were all shocked, and Wang Song was also at a loss. The woman in front of her gestures, appearance and bearing, is alive and live another moon show.
It's just that Zheyuexiu is generally dressed in black gauze or in the army, but this woman has a fluttering skirt, gentle and elegant, and full of ladylike style.
The eyes of the others in the hall were wide-eyed. Zhang Xian muttered to himself, "This ...... It's so similar! Except for the clothes, everything else is almost identical!"
"The slave family is Zhenyanxiu, on the orders of the head of the family and the father, I am here to pay homage to the king!"
The bearing is graceful, and the voice is like a yellow bird, crisp and beautiful. However, as soon as Zhi Yanxiu opened her mouth, Wang Song's heart sank suddenly.
It seems to be an old man. is just a simple and clear word "like", which already shows that the woman opposite is plausible, just a fake and not a real person.
Zhi Yanxiu looked at the stunned and thoughtful young man above, and couldn't help but feel disappointed in her heart. I thought that I was a famous show, and I was unexpectedly ignored like this.
The night was deep, a few lone stars hung alone in the sky, the snow was all over the ground, and everything in heaven and earth was in silence.
Wang Song took a sip of hot tea and looked at the dark night sky outside the window alone.
According to Zhi Yanxiu's account, a few days ago, the Jin army's 100,000 troops had advanced into Shaanxi, which was basically consistent with the situation reported by Ji Yisi. In addition, Zhang Jun sat in Yaozhou and assembled the Shaanxi Five-Way Western Army, which means that the historical Battle of Song, Jin, and Fuping will inevitably happen, but time has changed.
The Jin people were menacing, conquered the Jinning army in one fell swoop, and went straight to Fuping in Yan'anfu, the throat of the five roads. It seems that the Jin people are bound to win this time, and they want to defeat the Western Army in one fell swoop, take Shaanxi, and cut off the right flank of the Loyal and Righteous Army.
The Jin people stationed the Suide Army and the Jinning Army were not only to make the three states outside the river alone, but also to isolate the route of the loyal and righteous army to march into Shaanxi.
It is necessary to march into Shaanxi immediately, once the "Battle of Fuping" in history starts, and the Jin people win a complete victory, then the vitality of the Song people will be greatly damaged, the course of the war may change, and the battle behind the loyal and righteous army will be much more difficult.
Wang Song was thinking to himself, and in the backyard, he didn't know which house, there was a sound of pipa.
Wang Song was a little surprised, walked to the window, and listened carefully......
The sound of the pipa is impassioned and shocking, like a decisive battle between the two armies, the sound moves the heavens and the earth, and the roof tiles fall......
Wang Song listened slowly, and there were the sound of golden drums, swords and crossbows, and the sound of people and horses......
The sound of the pipa is invigorating at first, and then frightened, with a sense of crying and helplessness, majestic and tragic, and poignant.
Wang Song was also sad, and he was inexplicably panicked. he
It is clear that what this man is playing is the most shocking song in history - "Ambush on All Sides".
"Zhu Gong, I don't know who played this?"
Hearing Wang Song's question, Zhu Mengshu hesitated: "Back to the minister, there was no sound of pipa in the house in the past. Listen to the sound coming from the East Cross Courtyard. If I'm not mistaken, the new one who moved in is the little lady in Fuzhou. ”
Wang Song smiled dumbly and said: "It turned out to be her, no wonder it was "ambush from all sides". This is reminding us that the Fuzhou Folding family is now in ambush on all sides, and it is extremely dangerous, waiting for us to rescue. ”
Everyone smiled lightly. Wang Song was secretly surprised in his heart, the children of the Zhe family are all skilled in bows and horses, and their martial arts are with them, just like Zheyuexiu, Zheyuezhi and others.
This Zhe Yan Xiuqin, chess, calligraphy and painting, versatile, is really a lady, but it is an alternative to the Zhi family.
Fold Yanxiu, Fold can seek, ambush on all sides......
Wang Song frowned, and said to the strategists next to him: "Everyone, now that the Jin people have entered Shaanxi from the Baode army, what should our army do?" How should our army deal with it, should we first look at the Great Song Dynasty or the three states outside the river?"
Ma Kuo pondered: "Xianggong, the terrain of the three states outside the river is dangerous, and if you want to capture it, it will not be an overnight effort. Now's plan, taking advantage of the freeze, entered Shaanxi from Hezhong Mansion, completed its work in one battle, and together with the Song army, defeated the Jin people, and the Jin people in the three states outside the river naturally broke themselves. ”
"Husbandry, sandpiper and clam fight, fisherman profit."
Zhu Mengshu shook his head and said: "Our army's mobility is too poor, 123 cavalry against 50,000 golden iron cavalry, victory cannot be pursued, defeat is in danger of the overall situation." Our army entered Shaanxi from Hezhong Mansion, and when the Jin people were unprepared and the Song army sacrificed their lives to chase and kill, they suddenly made a surprise attack, so that they could hit and kill the Jin people. ”
This time into Shaanxi, Wang Song brought 20,000 horses from Hebei and 40,000 horses to Hedong, a total of 60,000, but the cavalry was only 12,000, and the rest were infantry.
Although the number of cavalry was small, this time there was a large number of artillery, more than 500 heavy artillery pieces alone, plus small artillery, there were as many as 800 guns, and the number of artillery also reached 4,000 people.
Although there were three or four thousand cavalry in Hedong, they were infantry on horseback and could not fight on the battlefield. The cavalry of the Loyal Army has too shallow foundation, and everything has to be thoughtful in time.
Wang Song pondered for a while, and then said slowly: "Pass down the military leader, send troops half a month later, join the Hebei army in Hezhong Mansion, enter Shaanxi from the east of the river, and fight to the death with the Jin people." Taiyuan sent 20,000 troops to approach Yan'an Mansion, so that the Jurchen flanks did not dare to move. ”
Niu Gao hurriedly persuaded: "Xianggong, the lesson of the First Battle of Fuzhou, has Xianggong forgotten?"
Ma Kuo shook his head again and again, his face pale.
"Xianggong, the Jin army of 100,000, our army fights with it, even if it repels the Jin people, it will be a tragic victory. If you don't repay your kindness, why send out a large army, wouldn't it be too much!"
Yang Zaixing also said angrily: "Xianggong, if you see you in the future, I will beat this old boy and let him taste my old Yang's fist!"
All the generals in the hall were gossiping, and they were all unkind. Obviously, many people are opposed to sending troops to help.
"Are you doing this to push the Jurchens to the side?"
Wang Song slapped the table with a "snap", and the hall immediately fell silent.
"As for my holiday with him, as well as the grievances of the dead brothers in Fuzhou, for the sake of his fight against foreign humiliation for many years and countless casualties in the family army, forget it."
Niu Gao's eyes were red, and he choked up: "Xianggong, you are really benevolent!"
Ma Kuo also said helplessly: "Xianggong is dedicated to the great cause of resisting gold, and the officials are ashamed." Everything is subject to the military orders of the Prime Minister. ”
The generals clasped their fists together and said: "Obey the military orders of the Prime Minister!"
"Everyone in the world said that Fuzhou was a war, and I, Wang Song, was to blame, and I was extremely stupid. Don't you know the things of the world, where righteousness is, and where the Tao exists, although thousands of people go to me! Everyone in the world is profitable, and the scholars are righteous, just like the Jurchens invaded Shaanxi in the south. ”
Wang Song Zhengse said: "The Jurchen soldiers are pressing,
For Shaanxi, it is a must-win. They thought that on the plains, our loyal and righteous army would be wise to protect themselves, and they would not dare or send troops, but they really miscalculated and underestimated the heroes of the world!"
Zhu Meng said that he was ashamed and ashamed, and said with a red face: "Xianggong's actions today will definitely leave a name in history." The lower officials were ashamed. ”
Wang Song did not think about the peace and the private grievances of the Song court, did not sit on the mountain to watch the tiger fight, and took the initiative to send troops to Shaanxi, and his great benevolence and righteousness were already clear every day.
"I'm not the Son of Heaven, we don't have a historian, and if we don't have a "Living Record", how can we leave a name in history?"
Wang Song made a joke, which eased the atmosphere in the hall.
Zhu Meng said solemnly: "Xianggong, the war is in Shaanxi, and Hedong can provide 300,000 stone of grain for the use of the army."
"My Hedong Loyal and Righteous Army is the elite of all armies, and this expedition, Taiyuan Mansion can send 50,000 elite soldiers!"
Zhang Xian is also red-faced. Only in front of Wang Song can he restore his casual and free character, and change the impression of being taciturn and selfless in the army.
Wang Song said in a deep voice: "Brothers, prepare well, the big war is imminent, don't slack off!"
Everyone agreed. The Loyal and Righteous Army went out to fight, and it was another time to make meritorious contributions. Following Wang Song, you can the Jurchens happily again.
"Xianggong, this expedition, the villain has to follow left and right!"
Niu Gao knelt down on one knee and said solemnly.
"Xianggong, in the first battle of Fuzhou, Niu Gao's defense was not effective. This time in Shaanxi, Niu Gao is willing to be the striker, and he will be ashamed of the snow, and he will definitely protect the safety of the public!"
"Xianggong, the villain is also willing to go!"
Wang Yan's face turned red, and he said loudly: "Since the summer, all conquests have been itching through the boots, and this time in Shaanxi, it will be a big war, and the villain will definitely go!"
Wang Song was just about to speak, but Jiao Wentong had already spoken.
"Xianggong, you can't favor one over the other. Go to the battle of Suifuzhou, and both the villain and Meng De have already missed it. This time it was our turn, too. Mengde, do you say yes or no?"
Meng De knelt on the ground and said loudly: "Xianggong must bring the villain." The villain is willing to make a military order, and the villain must cut off the person's head, otherwise he will be subject to military law!"
"Brothers, stand up and speak."
Wang Song nodded and made a fuss.
"Brothers, this expedition has already been considered."
Ma Kuo stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "Niu Gao listens to the order, Taiyuan City will be handed over to you to sit in the town, Meng De and Jiao Wentong are supplemented, and Lin Feng is the counselor from the side!"
Everyone was in a hurry, and they were about to step forward to speak, but they were stopped by Wang Song.
"Brothers, after the Shaanxi War, if the war goes well, our army will go north and restore Yanyun. The brothers will definitely go by then. Don't fight about today's affairs. ”
Everyone was helpless, so they could only cry and mourn, clenching their fists and respecting the order.
Niu Gao knew that Wang Song took care of his age, and he was also grateful in his heart, so he bowed and retreated aside.
Wang Yan was secretly complacent, Ma Kuo turned his head and gave him a head of cold water.
Wang Yan led 20,000 troops to the west of Jiaocheng, forming a horn with Taiyuan. Once the Jin people attack the three states outside the river, they must be repulsed, so as not to endanger the east of the river. ”
Wang Yan's face was embarrassed, and Ma Kuo said in a low voice: "In the first battle of Fuzhou, almost all of the 20,000 elites of our army were killed. Dong Ping, Yang Jin and others were all killed on the battlefield. Let's go to someone else this time, which is also what Xianggong means. ”
Everyone also stepped forward to comfort them, and Wang Yan's face improved slightly. Everyone talked loudly, and gradually the atmosphere became lively.
"Folds can be ......"
Wang Song pondered for a moment and said categorically: "Tell the Zhe family that when our army defeats the Jin people, the Jin people who surrounded Fugu will disperse."
When the military order came out, the sound of the piano was first neutral and peaceful, and then lively and brisk, with a sense of joy.
Wang Song couldn't help but smile slightly. The major affairs of the military state, the survival of the nation, come from the heart, and the strength is in the action, how can it be decided by your little girl or the face of your family.
