Chapter 220: Winter is coming
Heqing is dead.
Wanyan Zongbi fled to the north bank of the Yellow River with the remaining 50,000 troops in a hurry, and joined the main force of the Jin State.
In Wanyanchang's camp, a group of soldiers gathered together, but the atmosphere was a little depressing, which was a little different from the atmosphere when they went out, after all, when they went out, everyone was full of ambition, but now, they found that the reality was not the case.
"When Heqing died, he asked me a question, asking why our army had not tasted it before, why did it hit a wall everywhere now?" Wanyan Zongbi said softly.
"The sailors of the Song army are really powerful, this kind of large warship, we are not opponents at all." Wanyan Xiyin said softly.
"I used to think like this, but Heqing's words reminded me, he said that it was because we were afraid now, afraid that what we got would be lost, so we would be afraid and cower, we no longer have the courage to rebel against Emperor Taizu and resist the oppression of Liao." Wanyan Zongbi said softly.
After Yan Zongbi finished speaking, everyone became silent, to be honest, this sentence is not false at all, the current Jurchen nobles, one by one, are thinking about how much benefit they can share, fighting for power and profit, just like Wanyan Chang, it is because Liu Yu has no tribute to himself, and at this time he has the intention of abolishing Liu Yu.
The so-called easy to fight the country, but difficult to sit on the country, is said to be such a truth.
"What Heqing said is not a golden rule, it is nothing." Wan Yanchang snorted lightly and said with some dissatisfaction.
"Then let's talk about the current situation, now that our army can't survive the Yellow River at all, will it be blocked on the north bank of the Yellow River?" Wanyan Zongbi also knew that it was useless to tell this group of people, among the people present, I am afraid that he was the one who really realized the horror of the Song army.
"For today's plan, there is only one way but a detour?" Wan Yanchang said softly.
"What's the solution?"
"Wait!" Wan Yanchang said softly.
"Wait? When? Wanyan Xiyin sneered and said, "The so-called guns go off, ten thousand taels of gold, the current situation, continue to wait, it will cost money, how much grain and grass will be consumed in a day?" ”
Wan Yan Xiyin was already a little at odds with Wan Yan Chang, and when he heard Wan Yan Chang's strategy at this time, he immediately said with some dissatisfaction.
"Is there anything else you can do?" Wan Yanchang asked rhetorically: "Our goal this time is Bianjing, even if we take a detour from somewhere else, there is no way to occupy Bianjing City at that time, it will only be in vain." ”
Although what Wan Yanchang said was a little ugly, everyone had to admit that the situation of the Jin army was indeed a bit of a dilemma.
"When will that be?"
"Wait until it's a little colder, winter here is coming, and the Yellow River water freezes." Wan Yanchang said.
Wanyan Chang said well, when winter arrives and the Yellow River freezes, the Yellow River will disappear at that time, and then the Jin army can drive straight in, and the Jin army will still have 250,000 troops here.
"That's at least a month." Wanyan Xiyin said with a frown.
"But for now, we have no other way but to wait." Wan Yanchang said.
The Jin army had no choice but to station on the north bank of the Yellow River, but fortunately, this time they dragged their families over, even if they couldn't attack it in a short time, they could live on the north bank at this time, speaking of which, the living environment here is much better than that of the north, and everyone lives here, and there is nothing dissatisfied.
Jin Jun can wait, but Song Jun can't wait.
Bianjing City, Imperial Palace, Jinluan Palace.
There was a jubilant atmosphere, the news that the siege of Shicheng had been relieved had been spread, and the sailors of the Song army blocked the Jin army on the north bank of the Yellow River, which made the courtiers who were originally worried couldn't help but feel relieved.
But Zhao Huan frowned tightly at this time.
"Your Majesty, what's so upset?" Zhang Yu came behind Zhao Huan and asked softly.
Zhao Huan glanced at Zhang Yu next to him, and said softly: "You walk, why don't you even make a sound." ”
"The maiden saw His Majesty's contemplative origin, and she couldn't bear to disturb Your Majesty."
"Winter is coming." Zhao Huan didn't pick up, but said lightly.
"yes, winter is coming." Zhang Yu said with some joy: "I like winter the most." ”
"Really? What's so good about winter? ”
"It will snow in winter, and when it snows, we can build snowmen and have snowball fights, although we rarely do this kind of thing when we grow up, but it always feels good when it snows."
"You like snow, then I think your name might as well be Zhang Xue." Zhao Huan joked with a smile.
"The snow is beautiful." After a pause, Zhang Yu continued: "Winter is coming, and the New Year is coming, and I like the New Year the most." ”
"I'm afraid that this year's Chinese New Year will not be peaceful." Zhao Huan said worriedly.
"Your Majesty, what's bothering you?" Zhang Yu asked suspiciously: "Isn't the Jin army defeated by our army now?" Your Majesty shouldn't be happy, right? ”
Zhao Huan shook his head and said to Zhang Yu: "Have you been defeated?" Not really, the 250,000 troops of the Jin army are still on the north bank of the Yellow River, eyeing the tiger, and have not retreated, our army is now only in passive defense, if it is attacked, to be honest, it is still not the opponent of the Jin army, but winter is coming. ”
"What's wrong with winter?"
"Winter is coming, the Yellow River is going to freeze, when our army has no Yellow River natural danger, the Jin army will come over on the ice, and when the time comes, the 250,000 army will attack, whether our army can stop it, I'm afraid it's an unknown." Zhao Huan said lightly.
Zhang Yu is just a chivalrous man, he didn't expect this matter to be so complicated, at this time, after hearing Zhao Huan finish speaking, she couldn't help but be a little worried, and said to Zhao Huan: "Your Majesty, is it so serious?" So what can we do about it? ”。
Zhao Huan shook his head and said to Zhang Yu: "There is no better way. ”
"Can't you just hit it?" Zhang Yu said softly: "I don't know how to march and fight, but when I fight against others, sometimes even if I know that I am not an opponent, but as long as I put on a desperate posture, the other party will be afraid, there is a good saying, the soft are afraid of the hard, the hard are afraid of the dead, as long as our sergeants show their own momentum, there is no need to be afraid of this golden army." ”
