Chapter 368 Happy New Year

Mo Yu nodded and said to Wan Yanchang: "That's true, but at this time, we can only respond to all changes with the same, and there is no better way." ”

Wan Yanchang nodded and said, "Order the whole army, hurry up and hurry back to Shangjing as soon as possible." ”

Mo Yu took the order and left, but was stopped by Wan Yanchang.

"By the way, is there any news from Yan Zonghan?" Wan Yanchang asked softly.

Mo Yu shook his head and said to Wanyan Zonghan, "Not yet. ”

Wan Yanchang nodded and said, "Okay, I know, if you have any news, report it to me as soon as possible." ”

Mo Yu nodded and went to deliver the order.

It seemed to feel Wan Yan Chang's chatter, Wan Yan Zonghan here sneezed, looking at the surface of the Yellow River that had frozen in front of him, Wan Yan Zonghan led his more than 20,000 remnants of the defeated army and finally arrived on the north bank of the Yellow River, looking at the red flag fluttering on the other side of the river, Wan Yan Zonghan's brows furrowed tightly.

Wanyan Zonghan was really strange in his heart to be honest, although it was not the first time he had gone south to attack the Song Dynasty, but to be honest, he still couldn't understand the country.

At the beginning, Wanyan Zonghan felt that the Song Dynasty was the Heavenly Empire, and he had great respect for the Song Dynasty in his heart, after all, he had a preconceived impression of the Tang Dynasty, and Wanyan Zonghan was cautious when he saw the Song Dynasty for the first time.

But later, with the deepening of contact and the increase of understanding, Wanyan Zonghan found that things had changed their taste, the people in the court of the Song Dynasty were all selfish people, they didn't care about the life and death of the people below, they were greedy, they were so happy, they didn't want to forge ahead, they only knew how to drill camps, they had a lot of power, but they had no ability.

With this understanding, Wanyan Zonghan could no longer revere this country, so the Jin State began to move south, attacking the Song State, and easily occupied the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun that were originally returned to the Song Dynasty, so that the Song Dynasty became even weaker in Wanyan Zonghan's heart.

Everything was developing according to the expected situation, when the Jin army went south, it directly surrounded Kaifeng, the capital of the Song Dynasty, at this time even the emperor of the Song Dynasty was going to abandon the city and flee, and all the officials along the way directly opened the city and surrendered.

It stands to reason that the annexation of the Song Dynasty should be just around the corner.

But at this critical moment, a person suddenly appeared, that is, the current emperor of the Great Song Kingdom, the person named Zhao Huan was made the emperor by Chan.

Since this person ascended the throne, the first siege of Kaifeng ended without a hitch, I thought it was just a coincidence, but I didn't expect that everything started from that moment, just like opening Pandora's box, everything began to develop in an unfavorable direction.

The Jin Kingdom has lost again and again, and even the capital has been breached, this time it has gathered 300,000 troops, and wants to destroy the Song State, but I didn't expect it to become such a situation now, the number of people lost has exceeded half, and now the more than 20,000 people under his hands can live, it is really an unknown.

"General!" Zhao Tang saw Yan Zonghan's stunned expression, and couldn't help but come over and whisper.

After Yan Zonghan came to his senses, he retracted his distant thoughts, and said to Zhao Tang, "What's wrong?" ”

"The spies came over just now to spread the word, saying that the Yue family army led by Yue Fei is less than ten miles away from our army......" Zhao Tang said softly.

Wanyan Zonghan took a deep breath and said to Zhao Tang, "They really came fast enough. ”

Zhao Tang nodded and said to Wanyan Zonghan: "General, what should we do now?" ”

Wanyan Zonghan looked at the opposite side of the Yellow River, although the flag fluttered on the opposite side, but at this time, he couldn't stop.

"Do we have any other choice?" Wanyan Zonghan said softly.

Zhao Tang shook his head and said to Wanyan Zonghan: "It doesn't seem to be." ”

Wanyan Zonghan nodded and said to Zhao Tang: "That's it, only by rushing over, we can have a glimmer of life, if we can't rush over, then it will be a dead end." ”

"Gather the whole army, I have something to say." Wanyan Zonghan said to Zhao Tang.

Zhao Tang nodded, and said to Yan Zonghan: "I will immediately let the whole army line up and assemble." ”

Soon, Jin Jun stood in line.

Wanyan Zonghan looked at the group of soldiers in front of him, and his heart could be said to be full of emotion.

"Brothers, are you afraid?" Wanyan Zonghan said in a loud voice to the more than 20,000 people in front of him.

The group of Jin Jun looked at each other, although they were afraid in their hearts, no one answered, they didn't know what Wanyan Zonghan wanted to express.

"I know you're scared? Who is not afraid of death? Seeing that no one answered him, Wanyan Zonghan continued at this time.

"Since you are afraid of death, then you must try to keep yourself alive and make yourself immortal!" Wan Yan Zonghan continued.

"But how can we not die?" A voice whispered.

"How not to die, this sentence is a good question." Wanyan Zonghan pointed behind him and said, "What's behind this, do you know what?" ”

There was silence again, and then a Jin soldier boldly said, "Behind this is the pursuers of the Song army." ”

"What you said is right, behind this is the pursuers of the Song army, as long as they catch up, we will be killed!" Wanyan Zonghan said softly.

"General Wanyan Tang, you all know it, he is a warrior of our Jin Kingdom and a hero of our Dajin Kingdom, but now, he is staying in Licheng forever, and he was killed by those Song troops." Wan Yan Zonghan continued.

Wan Yan Tang's prestige in the army is still very high, after all, in this country where martial arts are respected, the status of people with high combat effectiveness in the army is still very high, at this time, hearing what Wan Yan Zonghan said, the soldiers looked at each other, and there was always a feeling of empathy.

"Now, look ahead of us, what's that?" Wan Yan Zonghan then said.

"Ahead is the Yellow River." One soldier replied in a whisper.

"That's right, there is the Yellow River in front, as long as we cross the Yellow River, we will be safe." Wan Yan Zonghan continued.

"Then what are we waiting for, hurry up and cross the river." Another voice rang out from the crowd.

"Well asked, what are we waiting for? But have you noticed, on the north bank of the Yellow River, at this moment, the flag is fluttering, and there are many people under the banner of the Yue family's army, wanting to stop us from crossing the river. Wanyan Zonghan shouted vigorously, ensuring that his voice could be clearly transmitted to everyone.
