At the end of the first year of Jingkang of the Great Song Dynasty, the second prince of Jin led an army of nearly 50,000 from Huazhou to approach Tokyo. The Jin army first attacked the northwest of Tokyo with fine cavalry, just because Guo Yaoshi did not say that he had played polo with Emperor Zhao Ji of the Song Dynasty in the Mu Camel Gang, where there were tens of thousands of good horses of the Great Song Dynasty. I was not very happy, but this elite horse rushed over at a gallop, and did not even pick up a pile of horse manure. He also turned his troops to the east, approaching Yao Pingzhong's headquarters, and saw that the county defenses of the counties in his defense area were reinforced, and they were ready to fight, so they approached the east to look for flaws. However, he found that the suburbs of Tokyo had been cleared, and the people of all the villages and towns had been evacuated.

After the follow-up troops arrived, the troops were stationed in the northeast of Qi County for fifteen miles. Straighten out the army and prepare for the assault on Tokyo. And sent out rangers everywhere to reconnoiter the situation in the subordinate counties of Tokyo. On this day, he did not entertain the generals in the big tent to reward the hardships of the southern expedition. The fierce generals of the Jin army under his command gathered, and Guo Yaoshi and other former ministers of Han Liao also attended.

In the tent, although the tower-like body sits on it, it is still burly. took off his armor, wore only a fur coat, his bare head was very eye-catching, and a huge gold ring in his right ear showed his status as a Jurchen nobleman. All the generals under the tent drank bitterly, and the atmosphere was warm. More than a year ago, the Jurchens defeated the Khitan, and now the army is close to Tokyo, and the Song Dynasty is about to be destroyed. Thinking about this world, I'm afraid I've got two-thirds. Now there is no ancient, no one after the special merits, who can do it without my courage and invincible Jurchen?

Picking up a glass of wine, the second prince staggered to his feet, and when the generals saw it, they stood up one after another. The attendant next to him wanted to step forward to help, but he pushed him away, walked unsteadily, looked around at the generals and said: "I, Wanyan can't leave, the Han official gave me the Han name, called Wanyan Zongwang!" Since I was a child, I followed the first emperor to conquer the south and the north, and there is no other way to do it, but I hope that the heroic name of my Jurchen will be widely spread in all directions! Today, the Khitan is dead, and the Southern Dynasty is still breathing! Tokyo is already in sight! At this point, his body shook, and one of them staggered to the ground. The generals around them struggled forward to lift themselves up.

The second prince sat on the ground and laughed: "Zhao Ji's father and son are in the city!" Today, I gathered my brave generals to hold a banquet here, in order to drink this celebration wine in advance! When the city of Tokyo is broken and the Southern Dynasty falls, then drink with the kings! At that time, I asked Zhao Ji and Zhao Huan, father and son, to personally pour wine for my brave and fearless Jurchen soldiers! Let their queens, concubines, and princesses dance in this big tent to help our army! Dry! ”

"Help me might! Dry! The generals responded with a roar and drank the wine.

At this time, a female real warrior general stepped into the tent, and behind him, a woman dressed in Hanfu rushed in. When the gold in the account saw it, they all looked at each other and smiled. He didn't get up from the ground, and waved his big hand: "Such a vulgar village woman, you can enjoy it!" When Tokyo is conquered, I will not let my Jurchen athletes return empty! Hahahaha! ”

These women, when the Jin army went south, were taken captive in various places, washed by day, and stayed with them at night. Those who do not comply will be whipped at least or beaten with a cane. The Han officials in the tent were somewhat concerned, but a group of golden generals had already rushed forward and snatched the Han woman to accompany him to drink. The Jurchens are not educated, and they have no etiquette and shame. And in that tent, he put his hands up and down, and some people even stripped the woman's shirt directly, and he was extremely obscene. Some old officials of the Han and Liao Dynasty couldn't bear to see it, so they all buried their heads in drinking, and the pharmacist Duguo enjoyed himself, and he still judged his head.

When it was lively, the off-the-books soldiers entered the newspaper, saying that the envoys sent by the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty had arrived in the army and wanted to see the prince.

When Guo Yaoshi heard this, he said: "Second prince, the envoy is here, it must be the matter that the Zhao Guanjia promised to draw the river as the boundary, and you can meet as soon as possible." ”

He was a little drunk, staggered back, and said loudly, "Call him in!" "Pharmacist Guo was stunned, right here? But this ...... Look at the red-eyed Jurchen generals, each holding the woman in their arms, if the Song envoy sees it, I don't know how to react?

After a short time, a man walked into the tent, about fifty years old, his hair was gray, wearing a crimson official uniform, and he wore gold and fish. A flabby face was full of shock, and its mouth was open as if enchanted.

At that time, a Hanchen shouted: "When I saw the second prince of Dajin Kingdom, how can I not worship!" ”

This person is Zheng Wangzhi, the "pre-military planning envoy" of the Great Song Dynasty, who heard this loud shout, as if he had been struck by lightning, stepped forward, bowed and saluted: "Zheng Wangzhi, the lower official, was ordered by the emperor to be the 'pre-military planning envoy', and he came to the army to negotiate peace with your country. ”

He didn't look at him, turned a deaf ear, and the Han official got up again and shouted, "I asked you why you didn't worship!" "It's really loud!

Zheng Wangzhi lowered his head, didn't dare to look at it again, and reluctantly replied: "I am an envoy of the Great Song Dynasty, and I am here to represent the emperor, so it stands ...... reason."

"Reason? Which reason do you follow! Now that you have all your land and your people, what qualifications do you have! On your knees! The Han official yelled, Zheng Wangzhi was at a loss, and he didn't know how to deal with it for a while.

The Han official's face changed sharply, and with a look, several Jurchen soldiers rushed forward and forcibly pressed his shoulders to the ground. Zheng Wangzhi was so panicked that he said repeatedly: "Don't be rude!" I worship, I worship! He immediately bowed to the ground, claiming to have seen His Royal Highness the Second Prince of Dajin Kingdom.

He still ignores it, and only drinks and has fun. Zheng Wangzhi knelt in the tent, without a place to be ashamed, so he could only say to himself: "The official is here, it is the order of the official's family, we agree to draw the Yellow River as the boundary, and also agree to respect Dajin as the country of uncles, but the money in Beijing is not enough, and I ask your country to give me leniency." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard it for a while, and the generals in the tent laughed wildly. Before he could figure out what was going on, he saw a pair of women's feet appear in front of him. Looking up, the envoy of the Great Song Dynasty, who was so panicked by the bookseller, hurriedly buried his head. The woman actually went up and ......, "The second prince said that since you are an envoy, you have worked hard all the way, reward you with wine, eat and drink!" Han Guan said with a somewhat playful smile.

Zheng Wangzhi thanked him, stretched out his hand and wanted to pick it up, but he heard the man again: "You can't use your hands!" You need to look up and open your mouth to catch it. ”

The situation deteriorated, and even the official family had to respect Emperor Jin as an uncle, and suffered humiliation, the country has reached such a point, what else can he do as a courtier? Zheng Wangzhi knelt on the ground, ashamed in his heart, helpless to come to the city, the attack was very urgent, if he did not compromise and seek perfection, he was afraid that the emperor would not be protected, and the holy lord would be ashamed...... The more I thought about it, the more ashamed I felt, and I couldn't help the old tears, but my ears were full of the rebuke and scolding of the golden people. The old minister could only close his eyes and raise his head and slowly open his mouth. In an instant, the Jurchens laughed wildly unscrupulously!

Right now!

Suddenly, I heard a shout from under the tent: "Prince Langjun! There was a crying voice in this man's tone, as if he had been greatly wronged. After a while, I saw two soldiers helping one person in, and everyone in the tent was dumbfounded, who is this? The crown and hat on his head are absent, his hair is disheveled, his clothes are disheveled, his feet are barefoot, and his face is full of ...... Slow, it can't be horse manure!

As soon as the man entered, he wept aloud, and ran before him, and fell on his knees on the ground. The latter regarded it as Wang Ne, who was the envoy to Tokyo! How did he become like this?

"Second prince! Minister, the minister is really shameless to come back! Wang Ne couldn't stop crying, and the officials of the Jinhan Khitan in the tent looked at each other, what happened?

At this time, he shook his dizzy head, and asked in a lost voice: "You, what are you ......?"

Wang Ne cried very sadly, and the horse manure on his cheeks was washed out of two grooves by tears, and reported in Jurchen language: "The minister sent an envoy to Tokyo, and later returned with the Song envoy Zheng Wangzhi." Seeing that the suburbs of Tokyo were well defended, the minister recalled what Guo Gong said, so he had the heart to spy. I don't know that I haven't seen a city and a soldier, so it is convenient for a group of strongmen to rush out of one place, first ambush the guards with bows and crossbows, and when our side is in chaos, they will rush up. The guards were going to be murderous, but unexpectedly, this group of strongmen are all extraordinary people, and they will kill all my guards, cut off their heads and abandon their corpses! The minister identified himself in order to avoid being killed. But ......"

I didn't wait to hear it, and I was furious! He crushed the wine glass in his hand and said fiercely: "Who is so bold!" ”

"Prince, this group of strongmen still let us withdraw from the country as soon as possible, otherwise we will have to ......" Wang Ne said this, looking up and seeing the second prince's hideous face, he didn't dare to say it directly.

"Huh?" He couldn't keep his eyes open, almost squeezing out of his sockets.

The gold generals in the account have long been unable to hold it down, and they have asked for battle. His face turned pale with anger, his lips trembled, and he suddenly strode to the corner of the tent and pulled out his scimitar! He had just turned around and walked back a few steps when he suddenly stopped. With his right hand on his forehead, he seems to have a headache. After a long time, he threw the scimitar and stepped forward to help Wang Ne, but the horse manure on the other party's face was extremely smelly. Forced to say: "It's hard all the way, and I'll go to clean and rest first, I have my own arrangements." As soon as Wang Ne left, another sergeant came to report that the rangers released from the camp had been attacked in a county town more than ten miles away, killing and wounding seven or eight people. The other party also dressed up as a "strongman".

When Guo Yaoshi heard it next to him, he knew that there was any "strongman", it must be Song Jun's disguise. It's just that in order to avoid a war of words, it's deliberately like this. This is strange, all the way south to fight, how have you ever seen the Song army take the initiative to attack? The army of the Southern Dynasties is just an ornament, a group of wooden shelves with instruments, whose troops are this, is it crazy?

On the seventeenth day of the lunar month, the county seat of Qixian County. Recently, the weather has gradually warmed, and the snow on the ground has begun to melt, but the soldiers guarding the city are still freezing unbearably. But Commander Zhang has passed down strict orders several times, do not slack off, do not be negligent, and those who violate the order will be executed! Therefore, no matter how cold and freezing it is, the soldier can only stick to his post. Fortunately, the imperial court pulled off the winter coat in time, otherwise the Jurchens would have been "stiffened" before they came. A young team player, wearing a cotton coat and armor, wrapped his whole body tightly. White gas continued to spew out from his mouth and nose, and he climbed to the top of the city and inspected the soldiers' clothing and equipment in turn.

"Straight sissy thief! What are you shaking? Stand still! The general shouted, but the soldiers in front of him trembled even more fiercely.

"Golden Soldier!" A loud shout resounded through the city. The team general was shocked and hurriedly looked out of the city. On the open ground to the east, I saw the crowd surging, and the flag was flying. Take a closer look, what is not the Jin Army? The officers and soldiers around were talking a lot, and the team general thought about it for a while, and immediately ordered someone to report to the commander Zhang Xian. After a while, Zhang Xian didn't arrive, but he heard the sound of running, and on the main road in the city, the galloping crossbowmen were so startled that the people avoided one after another.

The officers shouted out their orders, and the soldiers responded with a bang, and when they ran up to the city, they took their places. I saw a tiger with a bear's waist pulling out the saber on his waist, and the voice spread in all directions: "Bow and crossbow ready!" ”

The archers quickly unhooked their bows and each tried to pull them once to make sure the bow was in good condition. The comrades behind him scattered bundles of arrows, ready to replenish at any time. The crossbowmen naturally had to work harder, and the bed crossbow was huge, and it was laborious to place it, not to mention, they had to choose a suitable position. The city has not yet been prepared, and there is a sound of armor clanging, weapons colliding, and strong footsteps behind you. It can be seen that the infantry in full armor is gathering under the city, wearing thick armor from head to toe, and spears and axes in their hands. In a short time, hundreds of people poured into the streets of the city, carrying, picking, and dragging the stones and logs that had been collected long ago and carrying them up to the towers. The old, weak, women and children all nervously poked their heads out of the door of their homes and looked at the officers and soldiers speeding through the streets. Someone pulled his husband and brother and told him a thousand times...... Zhang Xian straddled the war horse and was accompanied by several subordinates to gallop to the city. When you squeeze up to the top of the city and look down, you can't help but be angry!

Outside the city, the Jin army has been assembled, and it can be seen by visual inspection that there are more than 4,000 and less than 6,000, and most of them are infantry. Zhang Xian was angry that this Jin army did not have large-scale siege equipment, so he came to capture the city with a simple ladder. How can you not be angry if you look down on him so much? In fact, it was not the intention of the Jin army, but it was a long-distance attack, and it was impossible to carry huge and cumbersome goose carts and other things. Jin Jun had already mastered the manufacturing technology, and originally wanted to use local materials to manufacture when he besieged Dongcheng. Unexpectedly, more than ten counties in Gyeonggi were all ready for battle, so they hurriedly made hundreds of ladders and came to detain the city.

"I can't let you get through the moat! Straight sissy thief! Zhang Xian scolded secretly, and then ordered everyone to give the golden dog a head-on!

Before the war, both sides were making final mobilizations. The Jurchen generals jumped in front of the battle, shouting loudly, and the soldiers held their weapons, and the sound was like thunder. Many veterans in the Hujie Township Army are no strangers to this kind of formation, when the Jingsui Battalion became famous, they encountered the Jurchen cavalry when they reached the boundary of Xiangzhou. Before rushing into battle, the other party also boosted morale like this.

"Don't scare him! Don't look at the gold thief shouting happily at this time, and later you will shoot an arrow, and he will still hit the ground. He also said that we are now well-armed, relying on the city, that is, we fought with the Jurchens in the field last year, and we also killed thousands of him in one burst, and my brother cut off two human heads. A veteran said to the little brothers beside him.

"Who's stunned? I'm not afraid! "This soldier looks like he is only fifteen or sixteen years old, and he is still childish.

"And what are your hands shaking? Brother, look at it, let you see the arm strength of my brother's two stones. The veteran snorted.

Seeing that the Jurchens were ready to attack, Zhang Xian turned his head to the deputy commander and said, "You come to command!" With that, he strode to a bed crossbow and ordered his soldiers to mount arrows. Two sturdy guards immediately held the wheel on the crossbow bed, one on the left and one on the right, and twisted the three bows on the crossbow bed to the back with all their might, but they were buckled with the crossbow machine, and one of them took out three inches of long feathered arrows and placed them in the arrow slot. At this time, the two crossbow soldiers picked up two iron sticks on the ground, and they still hung on the wheel, one left and one right. Then visually inspect the distance between the two crossbows from the ground, making sure to keep them level to ensure the accuracy of the bed crossbow. With such cumbersome operating procedures, it is not difficult to understand why most of the Song army's strong crossbows are "no more than three arrows at the enemy".

Suddenly, the Jin army outside the city made a loud killing sound, straight into the sky! Thousands of golden pawns roared and swarmed forward, each with a cloud ladder as the center, and the soldiers in front of them all held long shields as cover, and tried their best to pounce on the county seat of Qixian. At this time, some soldiers in the city found that it was not like a Jurchen person who rushed over, right? Why does it look like a man?

All the tribes stood behind their brothers, looked at the distance, and shouted repeatedly: "Steady! Steady! "It was about five hundred paces before he ordered to prepare his bow and arrows. Although relying on the city, many soldiers of the Hujie Township Army fought against the enemy for the first time, and they were inevitably a little timid. Some of the archers' hands were shaking with their bows, and their eyelids were always beating involuntarily.

The enemy is about 300 paces! Then one of them turned his head to the specially selected shooter next to him and ordered: "Test shot!" As soon as his voice fell, he heard a string sound, and the arrow galloped!

"No! Try again! Before the feather arrow entered the enemy's formation, the head of the capital ordered again. The shooter then winds the arrow, draws the strong bow, looks at a target, and releases the bowstring instantly! The enemy is down! In an instant, all the archers did not need to be commanded, and all their bows and arrows were fired! The tight bowstring tugs at the arc and squeaks!

"Put!" The deputy commander gave a military order, and in response to him was the thunderclap of more than 2,000 hard bows. Arrows are like flying locusts, dense as rain! The Jin army in the charge immediately fell to the ground! This batch of bows and crossbows is produced by the Jingshi Bow and Crossbow Academy, and it is far from being comparable to the broken copper and iron of the Daimyo Metropolitan Courtyard! Its accuracy, range is excellent! Don't you see, the enemy with a long shield was also killed by a sharp arrow piercing the shield?

At the head of the city, the strings continued to sound, and under the city, the Jurchen soldiers kept being hit by arrows and fell to the ground. Zhang Xian was over there, squatting in front of the bed crossbow, squinting with one eye looking for a target. Hand on top of the ballista, ready to fire. Seeing that Jin Jun was moving forward in the face of the rain of arrows, he couldn't help but laugh secretly in his heart, you are really a bully when I am a small county town?

Suddenly, I caught a glimpse of a person in the Jin army's charging formation, brandishing a scimitar and shouting everywhere. Undoubtedly, the officer turned the crossbow bed and aimed at the man. The arrow of the crossbow arrow was already facing the torso of the Jin general, and when Zhang Xian was pulling the crossbow machine, he suddenly heard the horn of the Jin army's rear formation!

When the Jin army charging in front heard this, it suddenly stopped advancing, and the rear team changed to the front team, and quickly withdrew from the range of the Hujie Township Army's bow and crossbow. Zhang Xian suddenly got up and looked, only to see that thousands of golden soldiers had retreated, and they ran away after a short time, what does this mean? Came to my Qi County to try the bow and crossbow? Looking at the hundreds of corpses dropped by the Jin army in front of the city, Zhang Xian was puzzled. Not only was he puzzled, but the soldiers above and below the city, as well as the people who supported the battle, were also confused, and they were going to do a big job, killing the sky and the moon, and the old and weak women and children were already preparing to cook food, waiting for the first half of the day, and sending it to the officers and soldiers in the city to eat. It's not even time for a cup of tea, and the Jin army withdrew?
