"The wild cat is called Spring...... Wild cats are called spring ...... Cat...... The prince ......" Zhao Chen's mouth kept groaning, and the eunuchs and palace maids next to him were surprised, not knowing what Zhao Chen was talking about.

Zhao Chen remembered the allusion of the tanuki changing the prince in history! According to legend, during the time of Song Zhenzong, Concubine Liu of the harem conspired with the eunuch Guo Huai to exchange the baby born to Concubine Li Chen with a civet cat, and Concubine Li Chen was beaten into the cold palace. After the death of Song Zhenzong, Song Renzong ascended the throne, Bao Zheng was ordered to go to Chenzhou to investigate the case of fraud by his uncle Pang Yu, on the way, Bao Zheng accepted the unjust case of Concubine Li Chen and redressed his grievances, and welcomed Concubine Li Chen back to the court.

The exchange of the tanuki for the prince is a non-existent thing, Zhao Chen thought of the tanuki for the prince at the moment, but there was only one thought in his heart - Li Dai Taozhuang!

He wants to find someone to replace him, the "prince", and go to the Jin army to die!

Zhao Chen stood up and paced slowly in the room, thinking about this matter in his heart! He frowned, and the eunuchs and palace maids next to him were not surprised at all when they saw the appearance of Zhao Chen, in the past few months, they had accepted such a change from the prince! Now the prince is still a ten-year-old child on the surface, but his tone, movements, and temperament are like an adult.

"Tanuki for the prince! Where can I find a tanuki like this? I am a prince, and I don't know how many eunuchs, palace maids, and guards follow me, and there are countless people watching me in everything I do! If there is a slight mistake, someone will report to the emperor! Zhao Chen said secretly.

"This matter still needs to bother Wang De!"

"I just don't know if Wang De is credible? Wang De, will he do this for me? ”

Zhao Chen thought hard for a long time, no matter whether Wang De was reliable or not, this was the only person he could rely on at the moment! It's like a dying man, even if it's a straw, he has to hold on to it firmly! Knowing that Kaifeng City was broken, he would not be able to escape death, did he still have to wait for death here?

He had to find a way to keep himself alive!

In the early morning of the second day, Zhao Chen came to Jujing Garden again, and Wang De was still waiting for him here.

"Your Highness, I may not be able to accompany you in martial arts in the future!" Seeing Zhao Chen's arrival, Wang De first saluted, and then said.

"Oh? Why is that? Zhao Chen was stunned.

"The Jin soldiers are going south, and there are still hundreds of thousands of forbidden troops in Kaifeng City! If the forbidden army goes north to fight, I will go with the forbidden army! Wang Dedao.

"This ......" Zhao Chen stayed there, thinking to himself that if Wang De left, he really didn't have anyone to rely on.

In fact, Zhao Chen was completely overwhelmed, the Northern Song Dynasty Forbidden Army had extraordinary combat power in the early days, and by the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, the Forbidden Army had been completely rotten and had no combat effectiveness! In the last years of the Northern Song Dynasty, it was completely relied on the Western Army to fight! The Jin soldiers went south, until the city of Kaifeng was broken, and the forbidden army did not play any role!

But at this moment, thinking that Wang De might leave, Zhao Chen felt anxious in his heart, and the look on his face was full of panic.

"Your Highness, what's wrong with you?" Wang De said in surprise.

"I had an important matter for you to do, but you said that you might leave Kaifeng, so I can't leave this matter to you...... But if I don't give it to you, I don't know who I will give it to. Zhao Chen said.

"I don't know what it is?" Wang Dedao.

Zhao Chen looked at Wang De, still hesitating in his heart! After a while, Zhao Chen looked around and found that the eunuchs and guards were far away, and they probably couldn't hear the conversation here, so he said, "General Wang, it's like this......"

After listening to Zhao Chen's words, Wang De stayed there! After a long time, Wang De said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, what are you doing this for?" ”

Zhao Chen shook his head and said, "I only ask you, can you do this for me?" Can you keep it a secret for me? ”

"This ......" Wang De hesitated for a long time, nodded and said: "Your Highness, rest assured, the last general will definitely do this for Your Highness!" It's just that...... For what, exactly? ”

"You'll know in the future!" Hearing that Wang De promised to help him, although Wang De's help may not be successful, Zhao Chen was relieved in his heart, and a smile finally appeared on his face!

"Your Highness, do you still want to practice martial arts today?"

"Naturally, you have to practice martial arts! Only with martial arts can you save your life! Today, I still learn the murderous swordsmanship you created yourself, General Wang! Zhao Chen said with a smile.

……

In the ninth month of the lunar calendar, the Mid-Autumn Festival has passed, and the weather is gradually getting cooler.

Kaifeng City is still singing and dancing, and as for the palace, there is almost no tension now.

Zhao Chen still followed Wang De to practice martial arts every day, originally he was worried that Wang De might be sent to the north to fight, but now it seems that he is completely worried, and the imperial court has no intention of sending troops to the north.

"Three Towns of the North...... I don't know how long the three northern towns can resist the Jin soldiers? Zhao Chen said secretly.

During this time, in addition to practicing martial arts, Zhao Chen made up for the ancient geographical knowledge, and he also knew the importance of the three northern towns to the Great Song Dynasty, and also knew the glorious history that Taiyuan City once had.

When the Jin soldiers went south for the first time last year, they were also divided into two routes, of which the commander of the Western Route Army was the Jurchen eldest prince Wanyan Zonghan, and the commander of the Eastern Route Army was the second prince Wanyan Zongwang.

That Wanyan Zonghan is the second most meritorious person in the five dynasties and ten kingdoms so far, what Di Qing, Yang generals and others are far inferior to him, even Zhou Shizong and Song Taizu are not comparable to him, from the five dynasties and ten kingdoms to the present for more than 200 years, the only one who can beat him is Wanyan Aguda. However, Wan Yan Agu has already died of illness after defeating Liao, so now Wan Yan Zonghan can already be called the number one military strongman in the East Asian continent!

However, when he went south for the first time last year, Wanyan Zonghan was blocked under Taiyuan City, so only Wanyan Zongwang, the second prince of Jinguo, came to Kaifeng City last year! The second prince alone had limited forces and could not break through Kaifeng, so he returned to the north after claiming a large amount of gold and silver!

"Maybe history has changed since I came into this world...... Maybe Taiyuan City can still stop Yan Zonghan, right? ”

Zhao Chen's gaze looked to the north, which was the direction of Taiyuan City.

*** ***

At this moment, under the city of Taiyuan, there is still a fierce battle!

From the beginning of the year to the present, the Jin soldiers' attacks on Taiyuan City have not stopped!

After being frustrated here last year, Yan Zonghan returned to the north, and this time he raised troops from Xijing Datong in the former Liao State and led 50,000 Jurchen sons and daughters here! Since August, after these 50,000 fresh troops have been put into the battlefield, the form of the battlefield has changed significantly!

"Dashuai, the women, the elderly, and the children in Taiyuan City have all participated in the war, and it seems that there are not many people in Taiyuan City anymore! In a month at most, we will definitely be able to conquer Taiyuan City! A Jurchen young general stood in front of Wan Yan Zonghan and said excitedly.

"Not in a month! In ten days at most, we will be able to break through Taiyuan City! Wanyan Zonghan said coldly.

At this time, Wanyan Zonghan was already in his forties, but his body was still very strong! He wasn't particularly tall, but every muscle in his body seemed to be made of iron, and his whole body looked like a statue made of iron! His eyes were unusually cold, like the eyes of a snake, and like the eyes of an eagle, looking unusually vicious!

"Pass the order, and the whole army will go to war! Ten days later, I will see Taiyuan City surrender to my Jurchen Iron Horse! Wanyan Zonghan said coldly, his voice was like the sound of metal rubbing, and the hearts of those who listened to it were cold.

The Jin Soldiers' offensive is even more fierce! Originally, the Jin soldiers had 20,000 soldiers and horses here, but now with the addition of 50,000 new troops, the total strength of the Jin soldiers here has reached 70,000! These 70,000 people have been attacking the city day and night, countless siege vehicles, and countless stone throwers have been erected! The Jurchens go forward one after another, and go crazy forward!

The Jurchens in front were smashed to pieces by the boulders thrown down from the city wall, and the Jurchens in the back stepped on the corpses of the Jurchens in front of them and continued to move forward! The death of their compatriots not only did not make them afraid, but also made them even more crazy!

In the past ten years, they have relied on this madness and this fear of death to lay down thousands of miles of rivers and mountains and defeat the invincible Khitans! It is as if they have no personal will, and all their personal will has been fused into this iron army, into their own nation! The will of the army is their personal will, and the will of the nation is their personal will! For the victory of the army, for the rise of the nation, the honor of life and death of individuals can be completely thrown aside!

From day to night, from night to day, the Jurchens fought endlessly! In the past ten days, more than 15,000 Jurchens have died under the city of Taiyuan, but the Jurchens still have not stopped, they are still moving forward frantically, wave after wave, their eyes are still so crazy!

During the Southern Song Dynasty, the Southern Song Dynasty court once studied the strategy of the Jurchens! In their minds, the Jurchens were able to defeat the Khitans, Han Chinese, and Tanguts, and they must have an extraordinary strategy! However, the final research results showed that the Jurchens had no strategy at all! The Jurchens are barbarians, before the rise they were still in a primitive society, except for fishing and hunting, they have no other skills, they have no own writing, they do not have their own civilization, where does such a race come from? Even if there is a strategy, it is far from being comparable with the various advanced "art of war" formed by the development of the Han people for thousands of years!

The only reason why the Jurchens were able to win was their will to fight, that is, such a tenacious fighting spirit that was not afraid of death! During the two Song dynasties, whether it was the Liao army, the Song army, or the Western Xia army, if they went to war, they would retreat if they were not victorious in two or three rounds, while the Jurchens could fight continuously for more than a dozen rounds or dozens of rounds until they completely defeated the enemy! The Song army and the Western Xia fought during the day, usually during the day, and at night they rested together as agreed, but the Jurchens could fight day and night for more than ten days in a row until the last warrior died!

"The Jurchens are less than 10,000, and they are invincible when they are full of 10,000", relying on this tenacious ability to fight without fear of death, once the number of Jurchens reaches 10,000, no matter how many Liao troops, Song troops, and Western Xia armies reach, there is only one way to die! At least in the era of Wanyan Aguta, this is an iron law, whether it is the Liao State, the Great Song Dynasty, or the Western Xia, no general, no army can break this iron law!

Now that Wanyan Aguta has just passed away, it has only been two years, and the Jurchen army is still the strongest army in the world!

Rumble!

In the middle of the night, a loud noise came, smoke and dust flew on the city of Taiyuan, and the Jurchen army below let out earth-shattering cheers!

"The city is broken! The city is broken! Taiyuan City is broken! ”

Taiyuan City, which had been held for 260 days, was finally broken under the continuous attack of the Jin soldiers! For the Han Chinese, this is a miracle! You must know that the former capital of the Liao Kingdom, Shangjing, only lasted one day under the attack of Wanyan Aguta, and Kaifeng, the capital of the Song Dynasty, did not hold out for more than a month under the attack of Wanyan Zonghan! Taiyuan City was able to hold out for 260 days under the attack of the Jin soldiers, which cannot but be said to be a miracle!

"Let's go! Town! Wan Yan Zonghan laughed.
