Chapter 487: Bei'anju

In fact, at the same time when Zhao Chen and Qu Duan were speaking, in Juyong Pass, which was more than 1,000 miles away, the city gate was wide open at this moment, and 170,000 soldiers and horses of the Yanyun Military Region came out of Juyong Pass and entered the vast deep mountains.

The army marched deep in the mountains, and there was no sign of anyone along the way!

In the earliest days, the Jurchens had laid a lot of spies north of Juyong Pass, but since the beginning of this year, the Yanyun Military Region has continuously sent elite teams into the mountains to clean up all the Jurchen spies! More than half a year has passed now, and it is really quiet here, and the Jurchens don't know what is happening in Juyongguan at all!

The mountain roads are so rugged that even the cavalry can only lead their horses forward! But the march of the army was not slow at all! They set out in the morning and didn't stop until the sun went down!

After the sky was completely dark, the 170,000-strong army began to rest! Before they set out, they had thoroughly explored the road here, and they had already found a sheltered place to rest!

There is no fire in the mountains, and there is hardly much noise among the people! At this moment, the mountain is silent, as if nothing has happened!

The 170,000 army carried military rations with them! And this military ration is the most common fried noodles in later generations, which is easy to carry.

They carried special felts on their backs, covering them over their bodies, and countless soldiers huddled together to keep each other warm.

In the early morning of the second day, the sky was overcast, and the 170,000-strong army had already marched north again!

There was still no sign of anyone on the road!

The army chose the most remote place to march, and almost no one was left behind along the way, except for some soldiers who had to stop after turning their feet, and the faces of these soldiers were full of chagrin! These soldiers will stay where they are, and soon the militia carrying the baggage will pass by, and if their foot injuries are healed, they will enter the militia ranks, and if their foot injuries are still not good, the militia will send them back to Juyongguan.

Until the third day, the 170,000 army came to the area of Jiugongling!

This is an important stronghold north of Juyong Pass!

In history, the first major battle of the Mongols to destroy Jin took place in Jiugongling! At that time, the Jin State gathered 300,000 troops, which was the elite force of the Jin State, and at that time, Genghis Khan only led 50,000 or 60,000 people, Genghis Khan and Mu Huali soldiers attacked Jiugongling in two ways, and broke the 300,000 elite soldiers of the Jin State with 50,000 or 60,000 cavalry! After this battle, the whole country of Jin was shocked, and no one thought that the unified regime that had just emerged in the Mongolian steppe would be so powerful!

This time, the Great Song Dynasty also carried out the battle to destroy Jin, but it did not go south from Jiugongling, but from Jiugongling to the north!

At this time, the Great Song Dynasty had just recovered the Central Plains and Yanyun, and the strength of the army and the high morale were by no means under the Mongols in history, and the national strength of the Great Song Dynasty was far greater than that of the Mongols in history! The Great Song Dynasty can mobilize more troops, and it is not comparable to Mongolia! The cavalry tactics of the Great Song Dynasty were also a complete copy of the Mongols in history! For this battle, the whole army is full of confidence!

After coming to Jiugongling, the speed of the army's march suddenly accelerated by a few points!

The moon is high in the sky, and the soldiers are hurrying in the night!

They are very accustomed to such a long march! Since the beginning of Guanshan, the army has been training endlessly, and it has to be trained on long marches almost once or twice a month! This kind of training can not only enhance the soldiers' physique, but also enhance the soldiers' will, and can also be used in actual combat, which is written in the infantry drill must be carried out! Now they are moving forward as they have been trained in the past, and some of the soldiers have begun to get tired, but they still follow the main force and do not let themselves be left behind!

It wasn't until late at night on the seventh day of the ninth month that they finally came out of Jiugongling.

"More than 100 miles to the east is Bei'an Prefecture, where 8,000 gold soldiers are stationed! We are an army of 170,000 to attack Bei'anzhou, so naturally there will be no mistakes, but I am afraid that someone will escape! Brother Yanxian, you lead 50,000 cavalry to the north, set up an ambush in the area of Liuzhou Pavilion, and intercept these 8,000 Jurchens! Li Xianzhong said.

"Good!" Li Yanxian nodded and agreed.

Liuzhou Pavilion is a small town 30 miles north of Bei'anzhou, but if you want to get there, you need to pass through places such as Homesick Ridge and Touching Douling Mountain, and the road is also very difficult! It was the only way for the Jurchens to escape!

"I will drive these 8,000 enemy troops away, and then set up an ambush on the road to try to annihilate them! This is the first battle in the north, and it must be fought beautifully! Li Xianzhong said.

As he spoke, the terrain around Bei'an Prefecture seemed to appear in front of him clearly, and the armaments in various parts of Bei'an Prefecture also seemed to appear clearly in front of his eyes, and he was confident that he would swallow these eight thousand Jurchens at the lowest cost!

He was the commander of the Great Song Dynasty after Yue Fei and Han Shizhong during the Southern Song Dynasty, and once cooperated with Yu Yunwen to break the hundreds of thousands of gold soldiers led by the gold lord Wan Yan Liang, and at this time, after he took refuge in Zhao Chen, he experienced countless battles and battles, and his talent for using troops was no longer under the original Li Xianzhong in history! At this moment, he is truly in the chest!

******

Gradually, the day passed, and it was late at night.

At the moment in Bei'anzhou, it is quiet.

This Bei'an Prefecture was originally a city built by the Liao people, and after the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, Bei'an Prefecture has become a relic, and later generations have never seen it again. Originally, this was an important city connecting Zhongjing and Yanjing in Liaoguo, because there were a lot of commercial exchanges, so it was very prosperous, but now it is ten rooms and nine emptiness. When it was late at night, a curfew had already been imposed.

Among the governors of Bei'an Prefecture, the last position is where Ye Luyun, the guard of Bei'an Prefecture, lives!

Yelu Yun was born in the Khitan royal family, and when the Jurchens invaded, he took refuge in the Jurchens, so he could become a Jurchen guard!

The moon was bright outside, and Yeluyun sat in the room and drank slowly.

The weather had become cold, and there was a fire lit in the house.

A woman dressed as a Jurchen walked in from outside and sat next to Yelu Yun, this is Ye Lu Yun's wife, he had to marry this Jurchen aristocratic woman called Wan Yan Jing after he took refuge in Jurchen!

"It's already dark at night, isn't your husband still asleep?" Wan Yan said quietly.

"I'm thinking about something!" Yelu Yun said.

"I don't know what it is?" Seeing that the wine in Yeluyun's cup had been drunk, Wan Yanjing picked up the wine jug and poured him another glass

"It's nothing, it's just that Liaodong hasn't been quiet recently, and the Khitans in Liaodong have actually rebelled!" Yelu Yun said.

"They are no match for our Jurchens after all! Some untouchables, nothing to be ashamed of! Wan Yan said quietly.

After Yelu Yun took refuge in the Jurchens, she had already regarded herself as a Jurchen, and Wan Yanjing had always regarded her husband as a Jurchen!

"These untouchables don't know what they think? I really don't understand, why did they rebel? Marshal Zong Han has already negotiated with Yelu Dashi, saying that our Jurchens have cooperated with the Khitan, why can't these pariahs figure it out? And what reason did they have for rebellion? Yelu Yun said.

"The untouchables don't understand the world and don't understand the overall situation of the world, so they naturally want to rebel." Wan Yan said quietly.

They didn't want to think that the two or three million Khitans in Liaodong couldn't eat, and countless people starved to death, how could they not rebel under such circumstances?

"The untouchables really don't have to worry, when the end of the year, Lord Yelu Dashi will lead troops south, and the Mongolian barbarians will also lead troops south, and we will attack the Central Plains again! At that time, it will be the end of the Han people! Yelu Yun said.

"I wonder if we can defeat the Han Chinese?" Wan Yan said quietly.

"No problem! The strength of the Han people is actually not strong, they just relied on trickery to kill the second prince and them! If their strength was really strong, in more than a year, they should have come out of Yanyun a long time ago, but unfortunately they didn't dare, their courage was much smaller than that of rats! Yeluyun smiled.

"That's right!" Wan Yanjing nodded.

"It's not early, let's all rest early! In fact, I also want to participate in the battle of attacking the Central Plains, but Zong Han and they are afraid that they will attack the Han people from Datong, and they will not go down from Juyong Pass! Although the Han people are incompetent and timid, but Juyong Pass is defended like a turtle shell, which is difficult to knock open, and it is most safe to attack the Central Plains from Datong! Yelu Yun said.

The two looked at each other and smiled, and had already stood up, and at this moment, there was a loud and noisy sound outside.

"What's wrong?" Yeluyun came outside and shouted.

"General, someone is coming to see you at this time, and we say that you have already slept, and they are still bothering you." A guard at the gate of the courtyard in the distance hurriedly reported.

"Oh? Who is it? Yelu Yun said.

"It's some soldiers from Jiugongling!" The guard said.

"What do they want to report?" Yelu Yun said.

"They actually said that there was a Song army in the area of Jiugongling! It's really ridiculous, who doesn't know that Song Jun is timid and cowardly, and never dares to leave Juyong Pass, how can he appear now? The guard laughed.

Yelu Yun frowned and said, "Let them come to see me!" ”

Soon, more than a dozen soldiers entered the courtyard, and they knelt down in front of Yelu Yun and Wan Yanjing.

"How could there be a Song army in the area of Jiugongling? Could it be that a small force of the Song army came out to investigate? Yelu Yun said.

"General, not a small army, but an extremely large army! At least tens of thousands, possibly more! A soldier said.

"Tens of thousands? How can it be? Yeluyun said in disbelief.

"General, this matter is true, the Song army is about to come to our doorstep, we must hurry up and take precautions!" The soldier said.

"Impossible! Song Jun is timid and won't take the initiative to get out! The Song people are the easiest to satisfy, they got Yanyun and the Central Plains, the only thing they can do is to hold Yanyun and the Central Plains, and they will not have the ambition to get more places! Yelu Yun said.

"General, it's true at this time!" These dozen soldiers are all anxious at the moment!

It is clear that the enemy's army is coming, and the generals are not yet defenseless, how can they not be alarmed?

At this time, there was another noisy sound outside, and Yelu Yun frowned and said, "What happened again?" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a thousand-sized commander and several centurions broke in in the distance and said, "General, something is wrong!" The Song army is here, and there are a lot of them! ”

Yelu Yun was stunned for a moment and said, "What? ”

The commander said: "General, we are stationed twenty miles away, and we have been attacked by the Han Chinese, and hundreds of our soldiers and horses have been defeated, so we can only report to you immediately!" ”

Yelu Yun said in disbelief: "Are you sure you are not mistaken, Song Jun really has the courage to come out of Juyong Pass?" How is that possible? They are Han Chinese, they shouldn't have such guts! ”

The commander said anxiously: "General, quickly get the soldiers and horses in the city ready!" ”

Yelu Yun didn't believe it, but two groups of people reported it one after another, and he finally nodded and said, "Okay, I believe you for the time being, if the Han people don't come, I will definitely ask you yes!" ”
