Chapter 244 Troubles are constant
The spy finally rushed back to the camp in a hurry.
Wanyan Zongbi was woken up from his sleep, he had actually just fallen asleep, and in such an environment, it was impossible for him to fall asleep.
"Are the spies back? But what's unexpected? Wan Yan Zongbi asked suspiciously.
Brother Shan Yu had already come to his tent, and he said to Wanyan Zongbi with a wry smile: "The situation is indeed a little strange, the spies who came back from the north said that they had encountered a ghost twenty miles ahead. ”
"Got a ghost?" Wan Yan Zongbi frowned, but he didn't expect such a situation to happen.
"Where's the spy, but he's already back to camp?" Wan Yan Zongbi asked.
"I've returned to the camp, but the whole person seems to have been frightened a lot, and I don't dare to stay in the tent anymore, and now Qingjialu is interrogating him, do you want to bring him over?" Brother Shan Yu asked.
Wanyan Zongbi nodded and said, "Bring someone over to see me." "Along the way, things have been so weird that he feels like he's in danger right now.
"Are the other spies back? What's out of the ordinary? Wanyan Zongbi asked.
Brother Shan Yu shook his head and said, "The other spies didn't find anything abnormal, and the Song army chasing from the south has also set up camp, and everything is normal. ”
Wanyan Zongbi heard what Brother Shan Yu said, nodded, and said: "Let the spies continue to watch, and then inform the gang that the meal will be opened at dawn tomorrow, and the army will march immediately after eating, the situation in the north is a little abnormal." ”
Brother Shan Yu's face was also a little nervous at this time, and he said to Wanyan Zongbi: "There shouldn't be any big problems in the north, the people sent by our army to ask for help are already on the way, I believe that we can reach Daming City tomorrow morning, even if there is really any accident in the north, as long as the army presses over, there is no need to worry about the threat of the Song army." ”
Wanyan Zongbi nodded and said to Brother Shan Yu: "I naturally understand what you said, but I don't know why, I always feel a little unsteady in my heart, like there is something I didn't grasp, but what exactly I didn't grasp, but I can't think of it." ”
Brother Shan Yu said to Wanyan Zongbi: "General, you didn't sleep well at night, so you are so nervous, in fact, we are too nervous, we still don't know what level the Song army is?" ”
Wanyan Zongbi shook his head and said: "You can't have this kind of thought anymore, haven't you noticed that since the new monarch of the Song Dynasty succeeded to the throne, there has not been a single victory in the battle between our army and the Song army?" ”
Brother Shan Yu opened his mouth and wanted to refute it, but he was surprised to find that it seemed that this was really the case, every time the Jin army rushed over menacingly, there might be cities that surrendered directly, but to be honest, there were not many garrisons in these cities that surrendered directly, and thinking about the situation of the march and the main force of the Song army, it seemed that there was really no victory.
"It seems that there really isn't any big win." Brother Shan Yu pursed his lips and said.
"I have observed the history of this nation, and I think that when the Tang Dynasty was a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty, it was only after the Song Dynasty that their emperor emphasized literature and light on military force, and was content with pleasure, which caused the state to be wasted. Wanyan Zongbi said to Brother Shan Yu that as the most famous general of the Jin Kingdom, he studied the history of the Song Dynasty very thoroughly.
"General, you mean, we can't win at all?" Brother Shan Yu asked.
Wanyan Zongbi nodded and said: "The Song Dynasty is rich, and their papermaking, silkworm, and farming techniques are far superior to ours, which is equivalent to a backward country fighting a war with an advanced country, you think about the difficulty of this." ”
"But at the beginning, wasn't the Song Dynasty still pressed and beaten by the Liao State, and the sixteen states of Youyun were still given to them by us, and even if they were given to them, wouldn't they be able to hold it?" Brother Shan Yu said a little arrogantly.
"Didn't I tell you? That was before, and I couldn't look at the problem from the perspective of that time, let's just talk about this time, the emperor of the Song Dynasty actually dared to drive the expedition, if they were not completely sure, would they dare to drive the expedition? Wanyan Zongbi said.
Brother Shan Yu was silent, although what Wanyan Zongbi said was a little unpleasant, but it was very practical, just like the Jurchen clan, except for Wanyan Agu to rebel, after Wanyan Wu begged to become the emperor, there was no real royal driving pro-conquest, not to mention the later emperors, the deceased Wanyan Kang is very respectful of the Han culture, thinking about poetry all day long, let alone thinking about the imperial conquest.
But now, the emperor of the Song Dynasty actually drove the expedition in person, and as soon as he made a move, he was resolute.
"General, according to what you say, is it impossible for us to escape this time?" Brother Shan Yu said with a frown.
Wanyan Zongbi nodded, and said to Brother Shan Yu: "Although I am not so pessimistic, I still have to think a little more about things when I encounter them, just like the haunted thing in the north that the spies said, it is really a little strange." ”
"General, do you mean someone is deliberately pretending to be a ghost?" Brother Shan Yu asked.
Wanyan Zongbi nodded and said, "It's just a guess, it's not certain yet, so we still have to wait until we ask clearly before drawing conclusions." ”
After Yan Zongbi spoke, he called in a few guards and whispered a few words to them, and then the guards turned around and went out.
The spy finally rushed over, and after seeing Yan Zongbi, he hurriedly said, "General, it's not good, there are ghosts in the north......"
Wanyan Zongbi waved his hand and said to this spy: "Ghost? Did you see the ghost? ”
The spy shook his head and said, "That's not true, it's just that the two of us explored together, and just after talking about this ghost and god, the fifth child died, and the human voice was sometimes old, sometimes young, sometimes far away, sometimes near, pouring from all directions, that is not what a human voice can do......
After Yan Zongbi listened carefully to what this spy said, he nodded and said, "So, you didn't see the ghosts at all, but you just heard their voices?" ”
"General, what the villain said is true, if there is half a lie, there will be five thunders in the sky!" The spy said.
