Chapter 372: The whole country mourns

This time he was ordered to go south, Guo Yaoshi had the intention of making meritorious contributions, and when everyone was staring at Xiongzhou, he set his sights on Cangzhou. Cangzhou is active and wide, the land is close to the Bohai Sea, and the value is much higher than that of Xiongzhou, and now Cangzhou's defense is weak, and the biggest force is the thief Kou Tianhu, isn't this the best time to take Cangzhou?

Sometimes I have to admire Guo Yaoshi's careful thinking, and he and Buqiong led their troops to the west reflexively, directly entering the Cangzhou realm, and captured the three cities of Cangzhou, Qingchi and Yanshan in only one day. In one day, half of Cangzhou was completed, this result was not even expected by Ye Luchun, and under the joy, Ye Lu Chun praised Guo Yaoshi and Bu Qiong, and ordered others to be stationed in Tianjiazhai and Wolf City Walled City, and ordered the two to guard Cangzhou City tightly to prevent Tianhu's forces from counterattacking.

Guo Yaoshi felt a burst of pride in his heart, he actually knew very well that Ye Luchun didn't trust him very much, but it was different to pull Bu Qiong to do things together, Bu Qiong and Han Bianqiao were Ye Lu Chun's most relied on generals, and they were tied up with Bu Qiong, Ye Lu Chun could still treat him badly?

Guo Yaoshi won a complete victory in Cangzhou, but Han Bianqiao was helpless in Xiongzhou, after a long time of attack, Ye Yi gave Han Bianqiao a plan, on the fourth day of the fifth month, the Liao soldiers besieging Xiongzhou suddenly withdrew their troops to the south and went straight to Gaoyang City. At this time, it was beyond most people's expectations, compared to Xiongzhou, the defense of Gaoyang City was much weaker, and Tong Guan, who was in Gaoyang City, was flustered, listened to Liu Yanqing's Jianyì, and in the name of the generalissimo of the Right Route Army, he transferred the Xiongzhou army to aid Gaoyang, and formed a pincer attack on the Liao soldiers with the soldiers and horses of Gaoyang City.

Tong Guan is not ignorant of military affairs, but he cares too much about his own safety, but he forgets that the Great Song Dynasty can compete with the Liao soldiers. What is relied on. Will order. Xiongzhou soldiers and horses did not dare to disobey. On the same day, 30,000 soldiers and horses in Gaoyang City and 50,000 soldiers and horses in Xiongzhou attacked north and south, forming a flanking attack on the Liao soldiers in Xiongzhou. In the face of the 80,000 army, Han Bianqiao did not panic at all, he used himself as bait and led the 30,000 army westward into Bazhou, which gave Tong Guan a false impression, in order to prevent Han Bianqiao from joining forces with Yeluchun. In a hurry, Tong Guan retired from the city, and ordered the seed master to go north out of the city to intercept Han Panqiao's army.

After receiving Tong Guan's urgent military order, Master Dao was stunned for a while, then suddenly stood up suddenly, his body shook and he shouted in pain, "Daofu Tong, you are trying to harm my army of more than 100,000 people."

The old man's voice was mixed with a hint of desolation. Seed Master Dao clenched his fists, and for the first time did not obey the military order. Not only did he not go north, but he also abandoned Ayutthaya and went west. Seed Master Dao hopes that he can join forces with the Xiongzhou army in time, and he wants to save these hundreds of thousands of Song Erlang. Intercept Han Sideways to the north? What do you do to dream of spring and autumn? If you really want to do this, I'm afraid that Ye Luchun will wake up laughing in his dreams, at that time, Ye Luchun only needs to occupy the first line of the city, and the Liao soldiers don't need to fight hard with the Great Song Erlang at all, and they can drag down hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in the Great Song Dynasty just by dragging them to death. It's really a bunch of idiots, do you really think that more people are powerful? If the city is not defended, it is unreasonable to have to fight with the Liao people.

The master did not guess wrong, when more than 80,000 people in the Great Song Dynasty entered the border of Bazhou, the 15,000 light cavalry of the Liao army, under the leadership of Xiao Qian and Ye Yi, suddenly killed from the Wenshui River in the south of Bazhou. The Song army was running around in the mud for a long time, and it was already sleepy and lacking horses, and when it met the Liao cavalry that suddenly came out, it suddenly panicked, and a few charges, the Liao cavalry continued to divide and encircle, and soon disrupted the Song army's formation. At this time, the army of Han Panxiao, who was still fleeing for his life, suddenly turned around, and cooperated with the cavalry to launch a fierce attack on the hinterland of the Song army, half an hour later, the 80,000 army was divided into several halves by the cavalry of the Liao State.

Lasted less than an hour, the Song army of 80,000 troops was defeated and could not escape, the Liao cavalry chased and killed from behind, on this day, the heavy rain still did not stop, the screams were endless, with the thunder, it seemed to break this dim sky. From Bazhou to Mozhou, from Xiongzhou to Gaoyang, there were corpses everywhere, and blood was sprinkled with rainwater, staining the entire land red. The army of 80,000 was crushed in front of the Liao cavalry, and it was not until the leader of the Seed Division Dao appeared in the east of Gaoyang City, and after the army on the east road paid the price of more than 20,000 people, the crazy Liao cavalry was blocked back.

Strange to be, when the war passed, the rain stopped, as if the rain had been specially designed for the war. The rain seeped into the surface, the sun came out, and the parched earth turned a continuous dark red, as if dyed with a layer of red paint.

This is the real blood-stained earth, the wind of the north, whistling and moaning, like the cry of the Great Song.

On the fourth day of the fifth month of the third year of Xuanhe, on this day, the corpses of the earth in Hebei were all over the field, the crows were singing, and the wild dogs were gnawing. On this day, the Liao-Wing Right Route Army suffered a crushing defeat, with more than 106,000 casualties among the 140,000 troops, and the blood dyed the south bank of the Baigou River red. When this news reached the southern country, the whole country of the Great Song Dynasty mourned.

At this point, the battle of the Great Song Dynasty to conquer Liao ended in a fiasco, and the former sixteen states of Youyan were not recovered, and most of Xiongzhou, Mozhou, Qingzhou and Cangzhou were lost. When the whole country of the Great Song Dynasty was mourning, the Jurchens took the opportunity to seize the entire fifty states of Liaoyang Prefecture in Tokyo, and since then all Liaodong has been attributed to the Jin people. The Great Song Dynasty is really desperate to make wedding dresses for others.

Wuzhou City in the northwest, when the news of Hebei's miserable white came, Zhao Yougong was silent for a long time, thinking that Zhang Jun's defeat was sad enough, but he never thought that Tong Shumi's would be even more than 106,000 people, but it could really be a disaster. Zhao Yougong can't figure it out even if he dies, it's a hundred and six thousand Song Erlang, they are good sons at home, and they are good sons outside, they may not be well trained, maybe they are not as brave as the Liao people, but they shouldn't have this kind of fate. Not to mention 106,000 people, that is, 100,000 pigs, put them on the open ground and let the Liao people kill, then the blade that has to be killed is rolled up, and the arm is sore, right?

I don't understand, I really don't understand, the dignified China has fallen to such a point, and the former prestige of the Han and Tang Dynasties is so decadent. No wonder the Jin people in later generations will treat the Song people as two-legged sheep, hehe, two-legged sheep, saying that the fat sheep have been lifted, and the defeat of Hebei is simply not as good as the fat pig.

For some reason, a mist surged in Zhao Yougong's eyes, and when he turned his head, he couldn't help crying after all, it was a silent cry, and his eyes were cold. Blood drips from the heart. He thought of Zhu Lian. This life. If he wants to die, he will kill his own woman first, even if he endures all kinds of infamy, he will not let his woman suffer humiliation and be the two-legged sheep.

The news spread quickly, and when the news of Wuzhou's defeat reached Wuzhou, the Dingguo army was also depressed. Han Shizhong, Wu Jue, Gao Chong, Liu Jian and others came to the general's mansion one after another, and they stood in the courtyard and did not walk in. Because no one knows what His Highness is thinking.

Dozens of generals of the Dingguo Army gathered in the courtyard, all of them had solemn faces, Azhu and Sanniang were also standing outside the hall, and at this time, only the wooden woman could accompany His Highness. Xiao Zhiyun has not appeared, because she is really not suitable to appear. Han Shizhong kept frowning, waiting for a long time, there was no movement inside, he stepped forward and said to Ah Zhu and the others, "Sanniang, Ah Zhu." Go in and see how it goes. ”

Sanniang still looks cold. Ah Zhu smiled bitterly and shook his head, "General Han, you don't know His Highness's temperament, he will be fine, as long as he has a decision, he will come out by himself." ”

Ah Zhu has followed Zhao Yougong for many years, and he knows Zhao Yougong's temperament very well, this highness is sometimes very easy-going and modest, but sometimes he is extremely strong and can't listen to anything.

In the hall, Mu Wanqing stood closely beside Zhao Yougong, accompanied him to look at the big map of Xijing on the wall, looking at the trembling shoulders of the thief, Mu Wanqing was sad and angry, the thief was tired enough, but the incompetent court always liked to put some bad things on his shoulders, and the thief always said that he only cared about his own business, but if something really happened, he still couldn't help but think about it.

Stretching out Hao's wrist, the jade hand wrenched the man's shoulder, "Thief, have you thought about it, no matter what decision you make, Wan'er will accompany you." ”

As the name suggests, Shuimu Qinghua, turned his head and looked at the delicate jade face, which was not the most beautiful, but a smile could captivate the country and the city.

"Wan'er, are they all here?"

"Well, they're all here, and now they're waiting outside the hall!"

"Okay, get a knife and go out with this king!"

In the words, his eyes were shining, and after a stick of incense, in the front yard of the General's Mansion of Nuoda, in the wind, the Shuanglong Banner was hunting and flying, and Zhao Yougong was dressed in a silver uniform, holding a sword like the king of Moqin. Glancing at the generals in the courtyard, Zhao Yougong's eyes were sharp and his posture was straight, he suddenly lowered the Qin Wang knife to the next pestle, and under the internal force, the blade penetrated a few inches.

"Everyone already knows about the affairs of Hebei, such a grief of the country, what will happen to the official family and even the court, no one knows, at least what the king will do. Soon, the Khitan Yelu Dashi will personally lead 100,000 troops to attack my Wuzhou City, today, this king tells you, from this moment on, the Dingguo army will not leave the sword for the generals, and the soldiers will not unload their armor, this battle, not only to play the prestige of my Dingguo army, this king also let the 100,000 Liao soldiers have no return! ”

Qin Wang Dao in his left hand, his right hand clenched his fist and waved it high, his sword eyebrows were lightly raised, his voice was like thunder, and his words shook people's hearts with every sentence, this was Zhao Yougong's voice, in the face of the fiasco, he was not afraid. In the face of strong enemies, he is still proud.

One sentence wants the 100,000 Liao soldiers to come and go, so that the generals in the courtyard are full of blood and high morale. Thinking of the Song Dynasty, who can shout the heroic words of annihilating 100,000 Liao soldiers when facing 100,000 male soldiers with 30,000 soldiers and horses? Perhaps, Zhao Yougong is very arrogant, but with this courage, he is worthy of the respect of men all over the world.

"I will follow His Highness to the death, and I will have no regrets until I die!"

"Swear to follow His Highness to the death, and have no regrets until death!"

If Qian Lin, Yao Gu and Qi Wenguang had a lot of disdain before, but at this moment they were truly obedient, and they could fight under such a man, even if they died, they would have no regrets. Men stand in the world, do something, and don't do something.

With a wave of his hand, the generals retreated, and Zhao Yougong looked up at the blue sky, where the white clouds were long, and the sun was shining all over the sky, warming the whole body. Hurry up, Jelu Dashi, let's see whose sword is sharper and whose shield is stronger. Zhao Yougong knew that the battle of Wuzhou was no longer a simple battle of interests, a battle of honor.

On the fifth day of the fifth month of May, at night, in the season of heavy dew, Zhao Yougong did not sleep, he looked at the crescent moon in the sky alone, as if he was looking for something.

In the dead of night, Zhao Yougong was not the only one who did not feel sleepy, the sound of footsteps came from behind him, and soon after, there was some resentment in the person's crisp voice, "Have you really decided?" ”

"What do you say? It's not that this king wants to do this, but you Khitans forced it! ”

"When is the time for retribution? Don't you Han people have a saying called repaying grievances with virtue? Xiao Zhiyun looked pity, she was very conflicted, and for the first time in her life, she felt confused.

"If you don't learn and don't know how to do it, you know how to repay grievances with virtue, but do you know the whole sentence? How to repay virtue with virtue? Therefore, repay grievances with straightforwardness and repay virtue with virtue! ”

Listening to the cold sarcastic words, Xiao Zhiyun smiled helplessly, "You have really made up your mind." ”

"Enough, who this king is, you should have known!"

After speaking, Zhao Yougong carried the moonlight on his back and left slowly, looking at his back, Xiao Zhiyun fell into deep thought.

"This king has turned into a demon, killing the world silently, the little ghosts in the world, why be afraid?"

I can't forget this arrogant sentence, this man is another Ran Min Heavenly King, he has been killing all his life, and he will not stop until he dies. (To be continued......)
