Chapter 495: Yuzhou City
The elegant man, the woman in white, and the woman in red were still running towards the north at this moment.
The voice of the Song cavalry could no longer be heard behind, and the three of them stopped.
"Then the generals of the Song army are so powerful! Judging by his age, he seems to be a year or two younger than me, and his martial arts are so strong! The elegant man said with palpitations.
"He is really powerful, I didn't know there were such masters in the Song army! Now the Great Song Dynasty has many talents and prosperous luck, so so so many masters can be born! The woman in white said.
"He should be regarded as the number one master in the Song army, right?" The woman in red said.
"The number one master? I'm afraid it's not even counted! There was a person in the Song army named Yue Fei, and that was the first person in the Song army. The woman in white said.
"Oh? I heard that this Yue Fei is good at leading troops in battle, and he is quite strategic! At the earliest, he led the troops to recover Guanshan, and later he led the troops into the grassland, fought against the four princes of the Jin Kingdom, and defeated the four princes! But can his martial arts reach the level of this young general? The elegant man said in surprise.
"The level of his martial arts is close to the realm of real people and arhats!" The woman in white said.
"Impossible! How can there be such a master in the world? Those are just legends! The elegant man lost his voice, and the woman in red also had an expression of disbelief on her face.
"There are indeed such masters in the world! The martial arts of Emperor Xuanwu's division have entered this realm! On that day in Zhongnan Mountain, I once met that Chongyang real person, he is indeed a real person, and he will definitely lead the righteous path in the future! As for that General Yue, the level of martial arts is beyond imagination, and the countless masters of Shaolin Temple in that day were not his opponents alone! The woman in white smiled bitterly.
She remembered what happened in Zhongnan Mountain that day, and a slight melancholy expression appeared on her face.
"It seems that Da Song is really in full swing! I originally wanted to be free in the rivers and lakes, but the family teacher is the ruthless Dao sect master, and now I am the commander of the resentful army, I Zhang Ziqiu can't be free in the rivers and lakes after all, I still have to return to Yuzhou. The elegant man sighed and said.
It turned out that this elegant man was none other than Zhang Ziqiu, whom Zhao Chen had met on Shu Road! As for the woman in white, it was Qin Yuzhen! The woman in red is Xue Susu of the Yin Yang Sect! The three of them were together when they were in Zhongshan Mansion, and then the three of them went to the north, and now they are here.
"There are too many Song troops, and we still need to make a detour." Qin Yu really said.
Zhang Ziqiu and Xue Susu nodded, and the three of them first headed towards the east, and only after walking for dozens of miles did they continue to head towards the south.
******
In the early morning of September 21, the sky was extremely overcast, and the rain on the grassland was very heavy.
An ancient city stands on the grassland, the gates of the ancient city are closed, and countless soldiers stand on the city walls!
This ancient city is the famous Yuzhou City in the Liao and Song dynasties!
Zhang Ziqiu, Qin Yuzhen, and Xue Susu finally came to the city, but as soon as they appeared, the soldiers on the city wall immediately became vigilant.
"Open the city gate quickly, I'm Zhang Ziqiu!" Zhang Ziqiu shouted below.
"It turned out to be Zhang Gongzi! Childe wait! After seeing the scene below, one of the generals above hurriedly said.
However, the city gate of Yuzhou did not open, but a rope hung down from the city wall, Zhang Ziqiu grabbed the rope, used a slight force, and walked towards it! Soon he stood on the city wall.
Qin Yuzhen and Xue Susu also soon came to the city wall.
"Where's the master?" Zhang Ziqiu said.
"The Great Marshal is on the eastern wall!" This will lead the way.
"Very good, let's go find the master!" Zhang Ziqiu said.
At that moment, Zhang Ziqiu, Qin Yuzhen, and Xue Susu walked towards the eastern city wall, and after a quarter of an hour, they finally saw Guo Yaoshi, the commander of the resentful army!
Pharmacist Guo looks only in his thirties, tall and with a cold face! Behind his hands, he feels unusually calm! In the history of Jin, it is called "the remnants of Liao, the powerful rank of Song, and the heroes of Jin." As a minister, it is a blessing and woe for the three kingdoms, if it is not good"! He waited for the historical stage from the last years of the Liao State to the time when the lord of the Jin State completed Yan Liang's southern expedition decades later, he was still alive in the world, and he still played a pivotal role in the Great Jin State, which is really not to be underestimated! This person is also the sect master of the ruthless Dao of the Demon Dao on the rivers and lakes, and he is as famous as Xiaoyaozi, the Demon Queen and others! Such a character, no one can underestimate him!
"Master, the gate of this Yuzhou City is closed, and all the armies have come to the city wall, it seems that you have also received the news that the Song army is heading north!" Zhang Ziqiu came behind Pharmacist Guo and saluted.
"Yes, the Song army has indeed gone north, and now the Song army has conquered Zezhou, Lizhou and other places, and will soon go north, so we must be on guard! I have already sent someone to inform the fourth prince, presumably the fourth prince will also lead his troops south! We have to block the Song army, and when Yelu Dashi, Hebul and others go south, we will fight a decisive battle with the Song army. Pharmacist Guo nodded and said.
"What? They have already laid down Zezhou, Lizhou? How many troops do they have? Zhang Ziqiu said hurriedly.
"I'm afraid there are two or three hundred thousand." Guo Yaoshi said.
"Master, we have just returned from Luming Mountain! When we came back, we met the cavalry of the Song army at the foot of Luming Mountain! That's a lot! Zhang Ziqiu said.
"Oh!" A shocked expression appeared on Pharmacist Guo's face.
They were talking here, and a few of the resentful soldiers were hurrying towards here.
A moment later, these resentful generals came to Guo Yaoshi and knelt down.
"Marshal, we have an important military intelligence report!" A general said.
"What military intelligence?" Guo Yaoshi said.
"Great marshal, there has just been a rout of troops returning from Hezhong, Nanhe and two counties, which have been conquered by the Song army!" This will lead the way.
"What!" Pharmacist Guo stayed there for a moment.
Originally, after he got the news that the Song army had captured Zezhou, Lizhou and other places, although he was shocked, he still felt that he could handle it! But now there are Song cavalry at the foot of Luming Mountain, and Hezhong, Nanhe and other places have also been conquered, which proves that there are Song troops in the south, north, and east of Yuzhou City, and Yuzhou is already surrounded by the Song army!
"Master, we are surrounded by the Song Legion, what should we do now?" Zhang Ziqiu said.
"Let's fight the Song army here first, and the fourth prince will soon bring troops to rescue us! We and the fourth prince should cooperate with each other, and we can defeat the Song army! Pharmacist Guo's face quickly became calm again, and said.
"Uncle Guo, I have a sentence, I don't know if I should say it or not?" Qin Yuzhen had been standing aside, and finally spoke at this moment.
"Say it." Pharmacist Guo nodded and said.
"Uncle Guo, now that the Great Song Dynasty has recovered the Central Plains, Yanyun and other places, the Great Song Dynasty has sufficient grain and grass and a large number of troops, which is far superior to the Jin Kingdom! The Great Song Dynasty went north this time, just to destroy Jin! According to the nephew's opinion, the Jin State is by no means the opponent of the Great Song Dynasty, and within half a year to a year, the Jin Kingdom may be destroyed! If Uncle Guo competes with the Song army, I'm afraid that the 100,000 resentful army will only have a dead end! Uncle Guo, I think you might as well take refuge in Song Jun! When the Song army unifies the north, Uncle Guo's glory and wealth will definitely be indispensable! The world has been fighting for a long time, whether it is the Central Plains, Yanyun or Liaodong, the grassland, the people everywhere have suffered a lot, and now let the people of the world end their suffering, wouldn't it be good? Qin Yu really said.
"That's a mistake! From ancient times to the present, for thousands of years, the war in the world has never stopped! The war will never stop, so don't persuade me with such a reason! Guo Yaoshi said.
"Uncle Shi, don't you care about the life and death of 100,000 resentful soldiers?" Qin Yu really said.
"My resentment army has been formed for many years, it has always existed, and it will always exist in the future!" Guo Yaoshi said.
"What's wrong with taking refuge in the Great Song Dynasty? Uncle Shi, you were first a subordinate of the Liao State, then took refuge in the Great Song Dynasty, and then betrayed the Great Song Dynasty and took refuge in the Jurchens, and now you can also betray the Jurchens and take refuge in the Great Song Dynasty! Qin Yu really said.
Hearing this, Pharmacist Guo couldn't help but laugh and said, "Senior nephew, you don't understand Guo's grand ambition!" I first followed the Liao Kingdom, and then took refuge in the Great Song Dynasty and the Jin Kingdom, others said that I was capricious and a villain, which did not understand my good intentions of Pharmacist Guo! The Demon Queen tried to rebel in the south, so that my Demon Gate could dominate the world, and I did the same in the Jin Kingdom! If I take refuge in the Great Song Dynasty now, after the Great Song Dynasty dominates the world, there will be no chance for my Demon Gate, so I won't do this! In the Kingdom of Jin, my Demon Gate still has a chance to dominate the world! ”
Historically, Pharmacist Guo once taught the gold lord Wanyan Liang martial arts! At that time, Guo Yaoshi was old, and Guo Anguo, the son of Guo Yaoshi, was the secretary of the military department of the Jin State at that time, and followed Wan Yanliang to the south to conquer the Great Song Dynasty! And the reason why Wan Yanliang went south is due to the credit of Pharmacist Guo! After Yan Liang's defeat, Jin Shizong ascended the throne, and Guo Yaoshi and Guo Anguo were all killed by Jin Shizong!
Guo Yaoshi and the Demon Queen have the same thoughts, but Guo Yaoshi wants to control the Jin State regime and instigate the Jin State Court to help him complete the important task of the Demon Gate to dominate the world! Therefore, he will never take refuge in the Great Song Dynasty!
"Now hundreds of thousands of Song troops have surrounded Yuzhou, I am afraid that in ten days, Yuzhou will be broken by the Song army! Why should Uncle Shi resist? Qin Yu really said.
"I complain that the army has not participated in the war for several years, and outsiders think that I can't complain about the army! I will let you see how powerful my resentful army is, far better than the Song army! Pharmacist Guo sneered.
"The strength of the Song army is even stronger than that of the Jin soldiers in the early years, how can the resentful army be their opponent?" Qin Yu really said.
"I have spent more than ten years training a strong army! All of them are elite! Today, I will first drive away the cavalry of the Song Army at the foot of Luming Mountain! Senior nephew Qin, senior nephew Xue, you are lucky, you can see my resentful army fighting today! Guo Yaoshi said.
