Wanyan Zonghan looked ahead, although the defeat of the Jin army had been revealed, but at this time, there was an old general who wanted to exchange his life for the hope of surviving the Jin army.

"Old General!" Wanyan Zonghan muttered.

Liang Zhiqiang hurriedly said: "The old general is benevolent and righteous, and he doesn't want to see my army annihilated by the Song army, so I ask the general to make plans early, so as not to disappoint the old general's sincerity!" ”

Wanyan Zonghan took a deep breath, and then he made up his mind, and said to Liang Zhiqiang next to him: "Then let's study it, which direction should we break through?" ”

Liang Zhiqiang hurriedly took the map, handed it to Wanyan Zonghan, and said: "General, according to the minister's opinion, it is better to break through to the east." ”

Wanyan Zonghan looked at the map in his hand, from the Zhanghe River to the east, he could soon enter the territory of Shandong, and in the north of Shandong, he could reach Shangjing all the way.

"There are many powerful people in Shandong, bandits are rampant, and you should be careful when marching here!" Wanyan Zonghan said softly.

"General, although there are many powerful and bandits rampant in Shandong, ordinary people may be afraid of these, but for our army, there is no need to be afraid, if there is one who does not open his eyes, our army will go over and destroy them at will." Liang Zhiqiang said softly.

Wanyan Zonghan nodded and said, "What you said makes sense. ”

"General, the minister recommends to the east, there are two considerations, one is Shandong, which belongs to the weakest place in the control of the Song Dynasty, and there was an uprising of the heroes of Liangshan before, and now there is an oath of the queen of Li Tang in the southeast of Shandong, and I pass through here, the danger is relatively small, and even if there is really any emergency, it is completely possible to go to sea by boat from Dagang in Shandong, and return to Beijing from the sea." Liang Zhiqiang analyzed.

Wanyan Zonghan nodded and said to Liang Zhiqiang: "What about the second? ”

"Second, it is the harm to the west, to the west, it is the defense area of Wu Jue of the Song Dynasty, Wu Jue is good at planning, and the Guanzhong area guarded by him seems to have become a monolith, if our army wants to break through from here, it is actually as difficult as climbing to the sky, if it is chased by the Song army all the way, then the Song army will be flanked before and after, and our army will be in danger." Liang Zhiqiang said softly.

Wanyan Zonghan listened to Liang Zhiqiang's analysis, and suddenly had an ominous premonition, feeling like he had grabbed something, but in fact, he didn't catch anything, he shook his head, discarded all those messy thoughts, and then said: "What you said makes sense, in this way, immediately send an order to Wan Yanping, let him go east, join Wanyan Qili, and the army will break through to the east together!" ”

Liang Zhiqiang took a deep breath and said to Wanyan Zonghan: "The general is wise! After seeing that Yan Zonghan finally made up his mind to break through, the big stone in his heart could be regarded as landing.

The herald hurriedly gave the order to go, and Wanyan Zonghan looked at the south, bowed vigorously, and said loudly: "Old general, you must go back alive!" As if knowing that this was just an extravagant hope, Wanyan Zonghan continued: "If the general has any three strengths and two shortcomings, I will personally lead the army to avenge the general!" ”

But having said that, when he really returns to Shangjing, the new monarch succeeds to the throne, and once he is a son of heaven and a courtier, whether Wanyan Zonghan can still be the general at that time is not to say, and it is unknown whether the new emperor will have the courage to attack the Song Dynasty again.

After Yan Ping received the news, she was also stunned for a moment, although she didn't know what the situation on other battlefields was, at least the situation on her side was not tense, although both sides had reservations, but it was also a little difficult to annex the other party in a short period of time.

"What other orders does the general have?" Wan Yanping asked the herald.

The herald shook his head and said, "The general just asked me to pass on the news, and nothing else was said. ”

Wan Yanping nodded and asked, "How is the battle situation in the south?" ”

The herald shook his head and said, "I don't know, I heard that it's not very ideal, it's already ...... I can't resist it! ”

Wan Yanping's brows furrowed tightly, no wonder he was going to break through, if he was really defeated in the middle, if he didn't break through, then the army would be divided, and then there would be a danger that the whole army would be surrounded and annihilated.

"I know, you go back first, I'll order the withdrawal immediately!" Wan Yanping said softly.

The herald went back to his life, Wan Yanping looked at the stalemate army in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh, withdrawing the army is also a technical job.

Can't show a rout posture, otherwise be bitten by the Song army, at this time the morale has been dispersed, and if the time comes to be bitten by the Song army, it will be defeated, so Wan Yanping's withdrawal is also cautious, and the back to the front team, into a battle formation alternately retreated, although the speed of retreat is much slower, but at least it is safe.

Naturally, the actions of the Jin army did not escape Zhao Huan's eyes, and the spies soon got the news of the retreat of the Jin army in the west.

"Your Majesty, the Jin Army is preparing to break through." Liu Xiao said softly, Liu Xiao is a big harvest of Zhao Huan's Northern Expedition, when he was in the famous city, this person Mao recommended himself, saying that he wanted to follow Zhao Huan's side and wanted to make contributions.

Zhao Huan didn't refuse, so he took him to his side and gave him a position as a guest, but he didn't have any great hopes for him, but he didn't expect that the person in front of him was really a wonderful person.

In particular, his views on some things are very trendy, and it can be said that they are very similar to many modern views, such as letting the craftsmen work in three shifts and take turns to work, which is a common opinion in later generations, but in that era, it was very advanced, Zhao Huan was a little skeptical at first whether he was a traverser, but when he tried a few famous Internet celebrity jokes in later generations and found that he was confused, he knew that this person was indeed talented, not like himself, It's just that with the accumulation of knowledge in later generations, things will be done one step faster.

"Well, Wanyan Xiyin in the middle lane can't resist it, if I Wanyan Zonghan, in order to protect the army, I will also make this kind of move to abandon the car and protect the commander at this time." Zhao Huan said softly, noncommittal about Wanyan Zonghan's approach.

"Then Your Majesty agrees with Yan Zonghan's approach?" Liu Xiao asked rhetorically.

Zhao Huan shook his head and said: "I don't agree, it's just that his current situation, this is his choice, if it were me, it would naturally not be." ”
