Chapter 693: Bravely Save King Kang
Yue Fei took more than a dozen soldiers all the way north, and what he saw was the remnants of the army, as well as a large number of discarded heavy grain and grass, the army on the front line of Xiangzhou was mainly dominated by the Xiang army, and Liu Guangshi's army who retreated from the defeat of Zhending Mansion, although there were many people, there were 80,000 people, all of them were very weak in terms of training and military morale, and they had already been frightened by the strong Jin cavalry, and almost all of them were defeated in a battle.
But after walking fifty or sixty miles, there was basically no one on the official road, and the people and remnants of the army had fled, and the official road was empty.
"Yue Tuanlian, it may not be far from Jinbing!" Xu Qing whispered.
Yue Fei nodded, he also thought so, it is impossible that there are no fugitives on the official road, at least there should be fugitives in Anyang County, there is only one explanation, the Jin soldiers have already been killed, and they are not far away.
"Look there!" A soldier suddenly pointed to a forest to the northwest and shouted.
Yue Fei also heard it, and there seemed to be a shouting in the woods, "Follow me!" He shouted, and ran into the woods with his soldiers.
I saw that in the woods, dozens of Jin soldiers were fighting desperately with more than 20 Song soldiers, and a middle-aged civil official was injured and fell on the grass.
Yue Fei was furious, he turned back to Xu Qing and said, "You protect that official, I'll kill the enemy!" ”
He waved his spear and killed it, Yue Fei's marksmanship was passed on by Zhou Dong, coupled with his own hard practice, so that his marksmanship was very strong, like a pear blossom, the tip of the spear flew all over the sky, fast as a storm, and only a few moments of stabbing more than a dozen golden soldiers off the horse.
Seeing that Yue Fei was powerful, the other Jin soldiers did not dare to fight, and they all turned their horses' heads and fled, Yue Fei did not chase, turned to look at the official, the official was hit by an arrow in the leg, bleeding nonstop, he had been bandaged by Xu Qing, and more than a dozen of his men were wounded and exhausted.
Yue Fei stepped forward quickly, and immediately recognized this official, it turned out to be Wang Boyan, the governor of Xiangzhou, and he hurriedly saluted, "See Wang Zhizhou for group training Yue Fei!" ”
"You are.... Yue group practice? ”
"It's a lowly position!"
Wang Boyan has not been in Xiangzhou for a few months, and he still doesn't know Yue Fei, but he has heard that Yue Fei is strong in martial arts, and he witnessed it with his own eyes just now, so he suddenly said urgently: "Yue Tuanlian hurry up and save His Royal Highness King Kang!" ”
Yue Fei was taken aback, "Where is His Royal Highness King Kang?" ”
"His Royal Highness King Kang and I retreated south, but we were caught up by the Jin soldiers, we were scattered, and His Royal Highness King Kang should be not far to the north."
Yue Fei saw that Wang Boyan and his men were injured, so he said to Xu Qing: "I'll go to save King Kang, you and your brothers take Wang Zhizhou to Wenwang Temple to wait!" ”
Xu Qing suddenly said urgently: "How can you go alone, I'll be with you." ”
"No, you don't! King Kang should still have an army there, I'll help, you go to Wenwang Temple first. ”
Xu Qing had no choice but to agree, "Beware of group practice!" ”
Yue Fei picked up his gun and mounted his horse and ran to the north single-handedly, while Xu Qing escorted Wang Boyan of Zhizhou to retreat to the Wenwang Temple in the south.
Yue Fei ran out of more than ten miles, and saw that there was dust in front of him, hundreds of Jin soldiers were fighting around dozens of Song soldiers, and one of them was wearing a golden crown, which should be King Kang Zhao Gou, Yue Fei shouted loudly and swung his gun to kill.
This Jin cavalry of about 300 people, is a forward sentinel, led by a thousand commanders, they found the traces of King Kang, so they chased all the way, and King Kang's hundred guards fought and walked, and finally King Kang's guards only left more than 30 people, surrounded by the Jin Corps.
Yue Fei shouted loudly and urged the horse to kill, he was not in a hurry to save King Kang Zhao Gou, but directly took the commander of the golden soldiers on the side.
Qianfu was furious, waved his mace and rushed towards Yue Fei, the two could not fight three times, Yue Fei picked the other party off the horse with one shot, and stabbed the other party to death with another shot, he then rushed into the enemy army with a spear, rampage, killing the Jin soldiers one after another, the besieged Song army was also demoralized, fought back, broke through a huge gap, and escorted King Kang to evacuate to the south.
Due to the death of the commander of the thousand, the Jin soldiers did not chase after him, and they left after a short time, and everyone rushed out of seven or eight miles in one breath, Zhao Gou saw that there were no pursuers in the rear, so he stopped the war horse, and a soldier led Yue Fei up, Yue Fei hugged his fists and said: "The lowly Xiangzhou regiment practices Yue Fei, see His Royal Highness King Kang!" ”
Zhao Gou was grateful, nodded and said: "If there is no Yue Tuanlian today, this king will be captured by the Jin soldiers. ”
"This is a matter of humble duty, and Your Highness does not need to take it to heart."
Zhao Gou saw that he was strong in martial arts and modest, so he couldn't help but like it, and asked with a smile: "Where is Yue Tuanlian from?" ”
"A lowly native of Tangyin County."
"Oh! It turned out that he was a fellow villager with General Li Yanqing. ”
Yue Fei smiled slightly, "General Li and I are not only fellow villagers, but also classmates and friends, we grew up together and studied art together. ”
Zhao Gou laughed, "I see, then you are not an outsider, then you must also know the iron arm Zhou Dong." ”
"Master Zhou is a lowly teacher!"
"No wonder Yue Tuan is excellent in marksmanship, it turns out that he is a disciple of the iron-armed Zhou Dong!"
At this time, Zhao Gou suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly asked: "Wang Zhizhou and this king are separated, have you ever met Yue Tuanlian?" ”
Yue Fei nodded, "Wang Zhizhou has been rescued from his humble position, and now he is waiting for His Highness in Wenwang Temple, please come with me." ”
Yue Fei escorted Zhao Gou to Wenwang Temple, and after a while, everyone came to Wenwang Temple, Wang Yanbo limped out, and said with tears on his face: "The minister thought that he would never see His Highness again!" ”
Zhao Gou was also really moved in his heart, and hurriedly got off the horse to support Wang Boyan, "Today we are all thanks to Yue Tuanlian!" ”
"Yes! Without Yue Tuanlian, Weichen would have died in the pine forest. ”
Everyone walked into the Wenwang Temple to rest, Zhao Gou's head of the guards had been killed, he immediately appointed Yue Fei as the leader of his guards, Yue Fei accepted the appointment, at this time, Zhao Gou found Yue Fei and asked: "I heard Wang Zhizhou say that General Yue came from Kaide Mansion?" ”
"Exactly! Beizhi was ordered to go to Kaide Mansion to investigate the enemy situation in the east, and as a result, tens of thousands of Jin soldiers had captured Puyang and killed Weizhou, and Beizhi deduced that the Jin soldiers on the east and west would converge in Liyang County. ”
Zhao Gou's eyes were gloomy, he also planned to take a boat south from Liyang, if the Jin soldiers had already captured Weizhou, then his hope of going south would be completely shattered.
Yue Fei saw Zhao Gou's frustration, so he comforted him and said: "The Jin soldiers can't cross the Yellow River, and they won't stay in Hebei for too long, they will withdraw soon, Your Highness can wait patiently for a month or two, and it won't be too late to return to the capital after the Jin soldiers retreat." ”
Zhao Gou sighed, and he could only do that, and he asked again: "General Yue is a native of Tangyin, do you know that there is a hiding place nearby?" ”
"It is recommended that His Royal Highness go to Lin Xi County, Lin Xi County is in the Taihang Mountains, the traffic is extremely inconvenient, and it is difficult for the Jin cavalry to pass, as long as we block the news, we should be safe to hide there for two months, take 10,000 steps back and say, even if the Jin soldiers really chase Lin Shu County, we can also hide in the Taihang Mountains."
Wang Boyan next to him hurriedly said: "But to go to Linshu County, you have to go to Anyang first, wouldn't that be to encounter Jin Bing?" ”
"I know that there is a small road to go directly to Linshu County, and you don't need to go to Anyang, just go west."
Zhao Gou was overjoyed and said urgently: "Then let's go now!" ”
Everyone cleaned up, and Yue Fei took the group to walk the path towards Lin Xi County.
.........
At the beginning of July in the sixth year of Xuanhe, the two Jin soldiers of Hebei converged in Liyang County, Weizhou, which means that the two roads of Hebei completely fell, and the Jin soldiers also completed the march plan of the East Road, but the army of Yan Zonghan on the West Road was not smooth, 100,000 Jin soldiers on the West Road plus Guo Yaoshi's 30,000 Changsheng army and 20,000 Jin soldiers from the support of Jingcheng, a total of 15 armies besieged Taiyuan City, and the Song and Jin countries broke out in Taiyuan City A very tragic offensive and defensive battle.
