Chapter 464: Liaoze

Wanyan Zonghan was extremely angry, for him, this was almost Tai Sui's head! Tens of thousands of their Jurchen cavalry were stationed in Liaoyang Mansion, and the Han people actually burned down several granaries under their noses, which was a humiliation to the entire Jurchen army!

"Chase! Kill all the Han Chinese! When I first invaded the Central Plains, I led the army all the way south, and no one could stop me! The Han people are nothing more than pigs and dogs, and now they dare to invade us just by virtue of some intrigues! They're really getting impatient! This time, I must catch all these invading Han people and execute them all! I want to make every Han person die extremely cruel, only in this way can I vent my anger! In the future, I will invade the Han people and exterminate them! I'm going to kill him in the Central Plains, and I'm going to bleed a river! Wanyan Zonghan gritted his teeth and kept roaring in his mouth.

The 30,000 Jurchen cavalry were all indignant at the moment, and their speed was extremely fast.

There were still footprints left by the Song army on the ground, and they followed these footprints to chase forward.

An hour later, the direction of the footprints suddenly changed.

"Boss, they seem to be heading east!" Su Shi Lie Zhining Road.

"Give me a careful search for a while, maybe the Han people are suspicious! The Han people are good at intrigue and trickery, and they can't be unguarded! Wanyan Zonghan gritted his teeth and said.

Countless Jurchen cavalry went in all directions, and after a while, Su Shi Lie Zhining returned again, and said, "Great Marshal, they are really heading to the east!" ”

"Chase!" Wanyan Zonghan roared and led the army towards the east.

After walking for more than an hour, it was already noon, and the weather was unusually hot. If it was in the past, the Jurchens would have long since hid in the shade of the trees to rest, and the Jurchen soldiers and horses had already fallen, and they were not willing to chase the Song army in such weather! But at this moment, after Yan Zonghan strictly ordered them to move forward, they didn't dare to stop.

Time gradually passed, and the Jurchens could always see the footprints left by the Song army along the way.

In the afternoon, the eyes became more and more desolate, patches of wild grass appeared in front of the Jurchens, and the air around them became unusually humid.

"Dashuai, you can't go on!" Su Shi Lie Zhining said violently.

"Why can't you go forward?" Wanyan Zonghan said.

"Dashuai, this is where the swamp is!" Su Shi Lie Zhining Road.

Wanyan Zonghan was stunned for a moment, and reacted suddenly!

This is where the famous "Liaoze" is located in history, and in ancient times, it was a place as famous as Yunmengze and Juyeze!

In ancient times, the Liaohe River basin was surrounded by swamps and patches, and it was called Liaoze! Historically, it was not until the Qing Dynasty that Liaoze disappeared! The area of Liaoze is huge, and the terrain is extremely complex! During the Sui and Tang dynasties, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty and Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty both conquered Goguryeo in the east, but they failed repeatedly. In the Book of the Old Tang Dynasty, it was recorded that "in 18 years, from the conquest of Goryeo, and the division and brigade to Liaoze, more than 200 miles of mud from east to west, people and horses could not pass", and there was also a record in the history of the Sui Dynasty that "Liaoze is more than 1,000 miles from north to south, more than 200 miles from east to west, the wild grass is several feet high, as far as the eye can see, and the whirlpool is often seen in the grass, and the sound is like thunder, the mules and horses are eaten, and the whole body is bleeding, and the dead are eaten in an instant...... Cut the grass and fill the road, the water depth is beamed with cars, the blizzard, and the soldiers die of wetness".

The environment of this Liao River is too complicated, if the realization is not clearly investigated, it is impossible to pass at all! Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty and Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty were killed and injured countless times when they conquered Goryeo, and then they passed through the Liao River!

"The Han Chinese have entered the swamp! This ......" Wanyan Zonghan was also in disbelief at the moment.

"Dashuai, there are still footprints left by the Han people here, we can still follow them!" A thousand-legged man.

"No! The Han people are all infantry, and in this swamp, the infantry can pass, but the cavalry may not be able to pass! Su Shi Lie Zhining said.

"Aren't the Han people afraid of being trapped inside?" Thousand-mile said.

"The Han people may also be afraid of our pursuit, so they hid here! But it's also possible that they know the way inside! They used to send people to investigate. Su Shi Lie Zhining said.

Wanyan Zonghan got off the horse and walked forward, and the Jurchen soldiers behind were stunned, and they also dismounted and walked forward.

However, after walking less than half a mile, their legs were already stuck in the mud, and it was difficult for them to lift their legs.

"Dashuai, it's getting dark, we can't go on! After dark, it's almost a dead end! Su Shi Lie Zhining said.

Wanyan Zonghan finally nodded.

"Dashuai, let's go back to Liaoyang! Just leave some of the soldiers and horses here to guard. Su Shi Lie Zhining said.

"No! You can't just let the Han people go! The Han people are so despicable and shameless, they don't dare to fight us head-on, they will only conspire and scheming, such a cowardly race, I must destroy them all! My guess is that they probably entered the Liao River from above the sea, and then went all the way north from the Liao River, and then from the swamp to Liaoyang! It has to be so, it has to be so! They still have to go back, let's chase them now and block them from the place where they go to the sea! Wanyan Zonghan gritted his teeth and said.

Su Shi Lie Zhining was stunned there.

"Go back! Get on your horse and continue your pursuit south! Also, leave some of the soldiers and horses here! If the Han people come out of here, send someone to inform me immediately, and I will go north immediately! I don't believe I can't kill these Han people! Wanyan Zonghan said angrily.

At that moment, the Jurchen army continued to rush south.

******

At this moment, more than twenty miles east of the swamp, an army is trekking here!

They had apparently surveyed the terrain of the place, and in some places the weeds were almost a man tall, and some people in front of them were constantly cutting the weeds with knives, and the people behind were walking briskly forward.

As the sun sets, the fiery red sun shines on the meadows and swamps in front of you! Occasionally, you can see dense forests, and occasionally you can see lakes! Sometimes the waterfowl fly, and in other places there are countless mosquitoes!

After another quarter of an hour, there was the sound of water ahead!

This army was the Tianjin Navy led by Wu Jue, and after hearing the sound of water, Wu Jue's face couldn't help but show a smile.

"We've come to Liaohe! Our fleet is waiting for us right ahead! Wu Jue said.

"Finally came to Liaohe!" The soldiers behind also showed excited smiles on their faces.

"It's getting dark, faster!" Wu Jue said.

They strode forward, and finally an extremely wide river appeared in front of them, and this was exactly where the Liao River was!

The ancient Liao River is much wider than the modern Liao River, and the Liao River and the Yangtze River are compared in the history of the Sui and Tang dynasties! Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty and Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty wasted a lot of effort in order to survive the Liao River!

At this moment, there are hundreds of big boats splashing on the Liao River, and when they see this big boat, all the soldiers cheered!

"Get on board!" Wu Jue laughed!

Less than half an hour had passed, and it was already dark, and at this moment the hundreds of large ships began to move downstream along the Liao River.

Wu Jue stood at the bow of the boat, letting the cool breeze of the river blow on his body, his clothes constantly swaying, and his hair swaying.

"Dashuai, are we going back to Tianjin Wei?" A general in his twenties came behind Wu Jue and said.

"Since last year, we have wanted to cross the sea to fight, so that it will be difficult for the Jurchens to live in peace! Now it's just a few granaries that have been burned down, and that's nothing at all! After arriving at sea, you led 20,000 soldiers and horses to the east to attack Chenzhou, and I personally led 30,000 troops to the west to attack Yaozhou, Jinzhou and other places! Wu Jue said.

Chenzhou and Yaozhou are important cities on the Liaodong Peninsula, Chenzhou is probably located in the current location of Gaizhou City, Liaoning Province, and Yaozhou is located in the west of Yingkou City! These were built by the Khitans at the beginning!

As for the young general, he is an important general in the Tianjin Navy, Wu Jue's right and left hand, his name is Xue Quan, originally a native of Sichuan, Shu and Chongqing, without any background, and he has been promoted step by step to become a figure second only to Wu Jue in the Tianjin Navy! That Xue Quan was brave and good at fighting, and played an important role in several battles.

The fleet marched mightily in the Liao River, both sides of the Liao River were full of swamps, and there were no people within a hundred miles, and the Tianjin Navy was not afraid of being discovered or attacked by the Jurchens at all!

They marched all night, until the afternoon of the second day, the river became wider and wider, the surrounding swamps gradually disappeared, and occasionally some Khitan fishing villages could be seen! There are also some Khitan people fishing around the mouth of the Liao River, but seeing such a fleet, those Khitans are panicked and hurriedly hid!

The fleet entered the sea, where Xue Quan led 20,000 naval officers and men all the way east along the coastline, while Wu Jue led 30,000 troops in the direction of Yaozhou!

******

Yaozhou was also very prosperous, when the Liao State was the first power in East Asia, two hundred years after the founding of the country, the Goryeo people were forced to take refuge in the Liao people, and the business dealings between Goryeo and Khitan were through Yaozhou!

However, after being occupied by the Jurchens, it has begun to decline, and it is difficult for the Khitans to survive, but the Jurchens are not interested in production at all, the only thing they are interested in is plunder!

The Khitans also used to have water divisions, and Yaozhou had a water division of more than 10,000 people, but unfortunately when the Jurchens invaded, they did not play any role.

Later, after this naval army was wiped out by the Jurchens, the ships of the naval army were occupied by the Jurchens, and the Jurchens used these ships to form a naval division, but there were only more than 3,000 people.

The sun has set, the sea breeze is blowing, and the seaside is very cool.

A Jurchen commander was lying on the beach, several Khitan women were kneeling beside him, and dozens of Jurchen soldiers were guarding him in the distance!

Some of those Khitan women were holding fans, some were holding grapes, and some were holding barbecue, and they were serving the Jurchen commander.

"What a life like this!" The Jurchen commander said secretly.

He is the leader of the three thousand sailors in Yaozhou City!

"I heard that Lord Zong Han is going to mobilize a large army to attack the Han people again, but this has nothing to do with our sailors! I've never fought since I became the leader of this sailor! Now let me fight, that's not going to work! I'm just enjoying it in this Yaozhou Mansion and enjoying the old! Although the Han people's intrigues and tricks are powerful, they can't be the opponent of Lord Zong Han! The commander ate a grape and let out a sigh of satisfaction, and then he put his arms around a Khitan woman, pressed the Khitan woman to the ground, and even publicly proclaimed adultery on the beach.

And at this time, countless huge warships appeared on the sea in the distance!

There is another chapter, which may be very late, before 12 o'clock. Let's come and see it tomorrow.
